next decade or 80 the population increa~-

census gave the figures "a 61i,9l3. BY

Philip L. Schuyler
Opens Assembly Fight

Philip L. Schuyler, of Ridgewood,
who has entered the race for one of
the Republican Assembly nominations
pledged to the Gaunt local option bill,
opened his campaign last week Friday
night at the mass meeting in Odd
Fellows Hall in Hackensack, where
he said in part: "This talk that we
hear about standing for business
administration is pure bunk much as
we want public affairs conducted in
a decent and economical manner.
What the people want TO hear when
they listen to candidates is definite
platform of principles and that is
what George L. Record and those
fighting with him are giving the
voters. We stand for home rule as
to saloons, as to taxation and as to
public utilities and those who are
against these principles are against
the rule of the people. They are
either the advocates of some special
privilege or they are the enemy tc
real democracy. In either case they
are not the men to be followed in this
emergency when the people call fol
definite principles to give the relief
that is so much needed to make liv-
ing conditions better.

Paints Clifside Parks
Glowing Future

"After careful study of large
number of communities of the same
size as Cliffside Park, / am convinced
that we as borough compare very
favorably with the best of them"
said one Of Cliffside Parks most en-
ergetic and able boosters" this
week. "The stupendous undertaking
Of installing great sewer and road
system has been carried through sue
cessfully, and, in spite of the usual
distractions and complaints Of as
sessed property owners, has won the
interest and support of the COM
munity. Lateral sewers for all side
streets are being completed, and even
now the surface drainage of such i'm
portant arteries as Palisade avenue
and Gorge road is being taken care
Of by the construction of lines Of
drain pipe at the sides Of the road.
The open sewers of these streets are
already practically wiped out, and
there yet remains but small section
in lower Gorge road below Cliff street
and the old borough hall to be cleaned
up.
zone cannot walk through such
streets as Cliff and Walker and not
see the effect of their improvement
on their neighborhood; and this is
bound to react upon the people them
selves and their. general betterment
and well-being. The paving of the
Cliffside section of Palisade avenue
from Walker street to the Borough
Hall for the entire width from curt
to curb will be the beginning of a
modern model community abreast
with the best in the land.
"The architecture of Cliffside Park
is noticeably improving. 1t would
seem as though home builders and
others are approaching what would
seem to be truism that the hundred
or two dollars paid out to a gooo
architect is many times made up by
the attractiveness of the home anc
it's consequent increase in market
value. Cia.sside Parks school archi
lecture ranks with the highest in the
metropolitan district, and the same
may be said of its churches.
"Cliffside Park is well named. 1t il
being gradually evolved out of {
great natural park, while it is bound
ed just on the north by the probabl!
greatest park in the world-the Inter
state Park, and on the south by thu
beautiful, if more artificial, Nortl
Hudson Park, which to all intents ant
purposes is as if it belonged to our
selves. At both the northern ant
southern approaches to our borough
there should be placed welcoming
signs to Cliffside Park.

Fairuiew Boards Of
Health And Education
To Consider Epidemic

A Joint meeting of the Board Of
Education and Board of Health of
Fairview is to be held this evening in
the police station at which it is ex-
pected that definite decision will be
given regarding the opening of schools
on September 6, according to schedule.
The epidemic of paralysis has raised
a difference of opinions regarding that
matter and it is hoped to settle the
affair to the satisfaction of all this
evening.
Believing hat some of the teachers
who live out Of the town will take ad-
vantage in reporting for duty late in
the event of the proposed railroad
strike, Robert Hopkins, president of
the Board has announced that any
who fail to put in an appearance on
next Wednesday, strike or no strike,
will be met with an unpleasant re-
ception.

Ut SANITATION Urged

A prominent woman in Grantwood
in speaking of the epidemic alarms
of the summer made plea for much
greater cleanliness Of houses and
premises. She insisted that there
should be better workmanship used
in the connecting and calking OF
sewer pipe joints, and that all plumb
ing should be open.
"Of equal Importance is the keep
ing up of the standard Of our medical
practitioners as is done in some OF
the western states by requiring
physicians to undergo yearly State
examination. The greater use of tile
floors and walls for houses so that
they could be more easily cleaned
would be a good thing, too"

Cifside's Sister
Cities And Towns

Does the reader know that the Pali-
sades are seam of rock starting as
nothing at Bergen Point, across the
Kill from Staten Island; gradually
mounting in height to 100 feet at
Jersey City Heights reservoir; and
then creeping gradually up to 200
feet at Cliffside and 300 feet in
Palisade? Does the reader know
that the peculiar Palisades spur,
or promontory, behind which Gorge
road makes it's way up the ridge
from Shadyside is duplicated at Wee
hawken promontory behind which the
Union Hill cars climb the hill from
Hoboken? Does the reader know
that only short distance below this
point and just above Stevens Castle
the course of the Hudson swings from
a southwest to an almost southerly
direction, leaving fiat space about
two miles long between the river and
the bluff which is called Hoboken?
These are interesting facts, but
there are others fully as much so. For
instance, Weehawken is barely half
the size of Cliffside Park; and so is
Union Hill. Hoboken, itself, is but
a trif1e larger than Cliffside Par.l.
West Hoboken, wholly on the crest of
the ridge, and west of the northern
half of Hoboken and directly south
of Union Hill, is also about the same
size as our borough. West New
York and Gutenberg are also about
the same size.
A point of much significance about
the Manhattan" of New Jersey is
the fact that the Jersey City shore
continues parallel to the New York
shore until directly opposite the turn
ing of the latter at the Battery when
it, itself, turns westward for dis
lance Of over a mile to form the
northern boundary of upper New
York Bay. At this point Jersey City
attains its greatest width, reaching
westward to West Side Park on the
Hackensack river a distance of four
miles. The "fats" which at Hoboken
were scarcely mile in width become

Palisade Sunday School
Opening Postponed

On account of the restrictions that
are being enforced by the different
boards of health and the evident de-
STABILITY of abiding by all of the
regulations that can in any way aid
in checking the epidemic that now
RACES in this vicinity, it is thought
best to delay the opening of sessions
of the Sunday School to later time
than usual this year. 1t is not GER
tain yet when the school will open,
but notice will be sent to each family
in plenty of time.

it's lines. In spite of sign boards, bull
letins posted in stations and other
means which it has taken to induce
the public to protect itself, from fig
ures which have just been compiled
by that company, it is found that dur
ing the fiscal year ended June 80,
1916, eightyfve persons, including
men, women and children were killed
while using the company's property as
a highway or stealing rides on trains
or engines. Of this number % were
killed in the State of Virginia, 20 in
West Virginia, 80 in Kentucky and 2

was killed nearly onethird as many
persons as the total killed of United
