WHAT MAKES A TOWN?

The subject of restrictions on prop
erty has been discussed in these col
umnS from time to time, and it is no
easy issue to decide that they are cal
culated to benefit the general prosper
ity of a community. There are two
sides to the matter, and experience has
not vet demonstrated which is better
restricted or unrestricted property.
There is much strong argument in
favor of restrictions, just as there are
many forms of objection to be raised
against them. 1t always happens that
restricted communities are not regard
ed as very democratic. In the earlier
days of Paisade it was called the EEK
elusive" suburb, whereas the people
We're just the opposite.
A concrete example in fine suburb
is EnglewOod. There are scores of mil
lionareS there, and they live on the
most democratic terms of social
equality. One can any day hear a
bank president greet another in the
same position as Bill or Joe. On the
other hand, Englewood is democratic
in another way altogether. There are
sections where any kind of house may
be built. There is one section set
apart entirely for cOlOred neOple-
Negroes, if you like. Other sections
are occupied by your every day man,
the clerk, the worker, and some por-
lions reserved for laborerS. Engle-
wood represents about the finest type
of democratic community that could
be imagined.
Other New Jersey communities are
similarly constituted, and all of them
are for the most part successful munic-
qualities. One wonders, therefore, if
it pays to live where the price of a
house may be the estimate of a man.

weather we are totally deficient. we
cannot analyze it nor figure it not we
can by observations over wide areas
approximate what kind of weather we
are liable to have, but we do not even
know that because barOmetric pres
sure many times shifts to that extent
that speculations go astray. So we
do not know much of weather, after
all. The only people who know are
the professional weather fakirs and
they fool the public by foOling them
selves and proving that one guess is
as good as another. That is how
much they know, in proof of which
may be presented the ancient blizzard
manufacturer and weather sOOthsayer,
Andrew Jackson DeVoe, the Hacken-
sack crack, who never missed a predic-
ton that was not failure, if one may
console one self with so negative a
statement about man so big as he
isn't in the weather line.

AN ODD SORT OF SUMMER.

The vagarieS of weather have rather
emphasized themselves all through the
present summer. Nothing has been in
accordance with the regular order.
Whereas we generally have what
we are privileged to term "hot spells"
this year with the exception that there
have been several short periods of
ultra overheated temperature, the
general caloric has been rather mild
than otherwise This was especially
the case from ST. SWithens Day in
July TO the present week in late
August.
On weather matters, however, the
average man cannot or does not ac-
commodate himself. Also he does not
remember A week of torridity moves
him to feel that there was never any
thing like this" The weather rather

THE PRESIDENT
AND THE SENATE.

The whole world saw President Will
son at his best last Tuesday when he
met the Senate Foreign Relations Com
mittee at the White House for the pur-
pose of discussing the peace treaty. 1t
was a wonderful occasion, absolutely
without precedent in the history of the
country. But Mr.. Wilson has set many
precedentS, and always with certain
justification that has been understood
and generally appreciated after 1t was
all over. In the present case, after
waiting these long weeks that have
heightened into months, the President
heard with impatient interest all that
could be devised against the treaty,
then waited for the psychological mo-
ment, and took the senate into his con-
fidence, as well as under his wing, and
told them more in two hours than they
ever dreamed the treaty contained He
never halted an instant, but with all
of the rapid fire questions put to him
he had immediate reply and illuminat-
ing answer. Not once was he dis
concerted or ratified. AT every turn
he met the great men of the senate on
terms of equality, then rose above all
of the petty criticisms that have been
hurled at the great peace document he
has been trying to put into operation
for the worlds future protection. 1t
must have been a dramatic occasion,
and even his bitterest enemies, those
who have abused him the most, must
have come from the conference COM
pletely disarmed, if indeed they were
not overwhelmed at the great Presi-
dents broader view point. The big
bull of the senate. Senator Borah, was
as respectful as a lady in all that he
said and did He even proved good
hammered, when the whole country was
looking for tearing in. That he did
not break loose was indeed to his
credit And as if to take his critics
completely off their guard, the Presi-

PALISADE RESTRICTIONS.

According to special bulletins that
are being put out by Vincent b. Kelly
and his Improvement Association,
there is going to be a great big hub
bub on the proposal to have legal
tilt over an unimportant matter CON
nected with two residents of the vii
lage. The case of the dreSSmaker is
said to have been adjusted, the woman
volunteering to get another place for
her sewing girls at the Junction in the
Smith store which has been done.
The Richard case is held up by an
agreement. That is a really silly case.
The Improvement Association never
had anything to do much until its last
election of officers, when the former
secretary of the Eastern Bergen I'M
provement Association was called into
reuuisition to give it his own original
form of activity. The fact remains
that he is the prince of getting-Dusy
men when it comes to civic righteous
ness and true reform. What he will
do now that he can no longer take the
water cure, remains to be seen. But
with MS resources no uOuDl way
will be found to keep the town stirred
TO the depths as before hundred
two family houses would do more good
than ten improvement associations.
Then we would have town right.
But with all of the active engage
ments the Improvement Association
proposes, one wonders why it never
gets busy on the things that really
need attention. The house in Abbott
boulevard had to be cleaned out OF
town by individuals, aided by the
police, and it was long, long time be-
fore the detective abilities got the
Jump on things and stopped the nefarl-
Gus business right under the Assocla-
tons nose. There are some other
things the Association might get busy
on, among them the matter of some
people breathing too freely of this de-
lightful air That is something that
ought to be stopped Any one with
half an eye can see that there are re-
Strictions openly violated.

Berqen's New York Water Front.

Did you read the article in last Sun
days New York Times entitled 1.-The
Ports of New York and London?" The
article shows that New York city pos
sesses I'll miles of harbor front and
half of it unused, that the largest ships
ever built can come to CheSsa pier
within a mile walk of the heart of the
city and yet London is a better, cheap
er and more convenient shipping CEN
ter than New York. The reason given
is that in London the public governs
the shipping facilities while New York
is in the hands of private individuals.
Bergent county has New York water
front of priceless value to the county
Until the present Single Tax cam
paign started not Il solitary politician
of the county showed the slightest in
terest in the mine of wealth that could
be opened up by public control of oV

What are our politicians doing about
the Hudson river bridge? How will
they raise the funds to build it? How
will they maintain it after it is built2
To charge fares is absurd. The bridge,
like a highway, must be free to all
travellers
1t must not be built with an eye to
dividends or even to pay interest on
its cost. Both the Republican and the
Democratic parties are silent on these
questions, and yet they affect our
future to an incalcuabie degree See
what the East River bridges have done
for both New York city and Brooklyn.
The Importance of the Bergen county
population on the Hudson river is
slight and not to be mentioned in the
same breath with Kings and Queens
counties, entirely due to lack of easy
transportation. Have our political
parties any program whatever? No!

A Swamp Challenge.

If a sudden rush of investors, bust

invade our county with view to es-

swamp lands, filling and making dry
land out of marshes, what would the
owners of the swamp land do? What
would our tax assessors do? | chal-

politician to say whether they would

Football Player Drops From Sight Found in Hole Back of
 School.

While walking in the rear of the Academic High school last night, FL mer Wallen, n member of the alumni football team which was to hold prac- tice in the school gymnasium, fell six feet into a trench and was knocked out for several minutes. The mem- bers of the team were not aware that pipes were being laid and workmen had dug a trench from one building to the other. Officer William Strolls was called to assist in lifting Wallen out of the hole. He was none the worse for his fall excepting for a few Scrat ches.
 As there was over a foot of fallen leaves in the hole the fall of Wallen's body on them sounded the same as if he had struck water and some of the men feared that he had dropped into an old we'll Luckily for the other men, he was a few feet in ad- vance of them and at least a dozen were saved from @ similar fall by his disappearance.
