Political Notes

Assemblyman Roberts, of Burling-
ton county, has introduced in the
House a bin exempting farmers and
domestic employers from the provis-
ions Of the Workman's Compensation
act of 1911.
Having had a taste Of prison life dur
ing his brief official residence at the
state prison, Richard +. Hughes
evidently likes Che job, as he is said 70
be slated for the Democratic nomina
ton for Sheriff of this county. This
position would be worth more financial
y than the Trenton berth as 1t pays
$500 per year, with house rent, the
other paying $500 and house rent.
The Republican nominee has not vet
been named. Several are on the list.
and it is safe to predict thai the man
who is chosen will keep Richard in
private life.
Assemhlyman Roberts has started
movement to abolish the full crew
law which was enacted in 1913 and
which compels trains to carry certain
number of train hands. This law has
worked hardship in many instances as
it has compelled the railroads to carry
men for whom it has not had the
slightest use, thereby entailing useless
expense. 1t is true that while some
trans have been 'overmanned, . some
principally freight trains have not
had sufficient number Of men on
them to protect against possible acct
dents. But in the four years that the
law has been in effect there has not
been anything to show that the new
rule prevented accidents or did any
thing that had not been done for the
benefit of the travelling public. AS
|semblyman Roberts. is leading mem
Der of the State Grange, a practical
farmer and fruit grower, and one who
cannot be charged with unduly favor
ing the railroads. He proposes that
the question of adequate manning of
trains be left to the Public Utility
Commission, which body shall have
full power to order such number Of
men on the trains as operative needs
and the safety of the public require.

A Public Hearing.

At recent meeting of the Business
Mems Association there was request
from the Burlington County Transit
Company to have the half hour cars
which run at certain intervals, night
and morning, withdrawn, on the
ground that the trips do not pay. The
half hour cars were put on when the
subject of increasing fares was being
agitated and was sort of compromise.
When the request was made to with
draw them committee was APP
pointed by the Business Mems Asso-
citation to visit the trolley company's
Office and look into affairs with the
view of getting some knowledge Of
whether the financial situation had
been properly stated.
This committee has completed its
work and is ready to report. There
will be a meeting in the Office of Kel-
sey & Killie tomorrow evening al
which all points in the controversy
will be gone over. The committee will
make report of its findings and the
trolley company will present its side Of
the case. This is intended to be a
public meeting and if there are any
who are interested in having the hall
hour cars retained they are invited to
be present and give their opinions as
to what should be done.
If the half hour trips are being run
at loss to the company and are not
of especial benefit to the travelling
public there does not seem to be any
reason why they should be continued
If, on the other hand, a different situa-
ton is proven, then the affair takes a
different aspect. Go to the meeting
tomorrow evening and give free ex-
preston to your opinion on CHS mat
ter in order that all parties may be
fairly considered.
