C0hFESSES HE ROBBED
STORE AT NIXON

NEW BRUNSWICK, Aug. IL
When John Bowman was brought
before the police this morning on
suspicion he confessed to the rob-
bling of a store at Nixon owned by
a man named Meinon to the extent
Of three boxes of cigars, a quantity
of cigarettes and a watch. The
worth of the goods taken totaled
about SIS and the man gained en-
trance by forcing a window in the
rear of the store.
1t was while Officer Darlington
was %patrolling Front street this
morning that he noticed Bowman
with a suspicious package under his
arm. When questioned he claimed
he was selling smokes for a New
Brunswick dealer. Corrigan took
the men to the police station and
after being questioned he claimed
he had stolen the cigars and cigar
cites from a store on S0th street,
New York. Further questioning
brought forth the Nixon robbery
and when gotten in touch with
Meinon said that his store had been
robbed last night.
Developments then proved that
Bowman had been a soldier at Camp
Raritan and had been brought up
once for desertion. He is being held
to await the action of the grand
Jury.

SAYS MEXICO IS DONE WITH
REVOLUTIONS; OUR FRIENDS

NEW YORK, Aug. 11.-Mexico Is
done with revolutions and has en-
barked upon a program of economic,
political and social development,
which will surprise the world within
a few years, General Salvatore
Alvardo, publisher of Ell Heraldo of
Mexico City and secretary of the
treasury in the provisional govern
ment, told members of the Pan
American division at the associated
advertising clubs of the world at a
luncheon here today.
General Alvardo pictured an am
bilious program for the rehabilita-
ton of Mexico, first of which was a
reorganization of the nations bank
ing system, upbuilding of railroads.
creation of a merchant marine. M
employment for thousands of men
who made a living fighting under
various leaders.
With a revival of general business,
General Alvardo figured a fertile field
in Mexico for advertising, pointing
out that Mexicans are impression
able.
He denied that there was wide
spread anti-American feeling in
Mexico.
"We are your sincere friends" he
declared. I'VE adore your strength.
your vigor, your enterprise, your
system, your wonderful discipline of
mind and body, individually and So
cially and we r eager to asslm1-
late your methocs."
1--WE resent naturally the antago-
nism shown by certain isolated
groups, but taking the U. S. as a
whole, we have nothing but friend
ship. The fact that we buy from
you over eighty per cent of your
imports and sell you ninety per cent
of our natural products, precludes
the possibility of a permanent and
irretrievable breach. Let us try then
to create the new era in Mexico
Going into detail about plans for
reconstruction the speaker said nat
the government was prepared TO
spend $25,000.0 900 in the purchase
of American railroad equipment. He
said the government was planning
to expend for public work, schools
and other improvements sums pre-
viously spent in maintaining miii-
tary forces. An army only large
enough for defense will be main
tanned.

WATER PLANT To
Be READY SOON
So. Amboy's Municipal Water
Plant Will Pump 4,500,0 900
Gallons Per Day.
BY Special Correspondent.

BY Special Correspondent.
SOUTH AMBOY, Aug. 11.-With-
in a short time SOUTH Amboy's NUM-
|cipal water plant will be in full opera
uon. The progress made in the past
few weeks has been surprising.
There is but a few little details to be
completed.
The only thing that is tying up the
work at the present time is the ship
ment of the two pumps The rail-
road blockade has tied these two
pumps up for several weeks and
final work is contingent upon their
arrival.
The building is of white stucco
finish with red tile roof being quite
distinctive in appearance. 1t lies
nestled in among the hills at the foot
of Bay View Manor and presents an
attractive appearance. After the
construction work is completed no
doubt the surrounding territory,
which has been purchased by the
city will be developed into a large
public park. If this development is
carried out the building will be in
harmony with the surrounding coun-
try.
The plant is capable of pumping
$500, 900 gallons of water per day.
\ present NOAASdAAAPNACAA VI liC lily
is something over 100000 gallons.
The boilers are arranged in duplicate
units and will be used alternately.
This part of the work has been COM
pleted.
The water will be pumped by the
air lift method and delivered to the
standpipe in the highest section of
the city. The water will then enter
the water mains of the city for con
sumption The collection system in
effect at the local plant is unique.
After spending hundreds of dollars
for the drilling of wells on the site
with a great deal of success. springs
sufficient in number were found
when the construction work was
started, to serve the needs of the
people without using the wells.
Thousands of feet of tile pipe will
be used to collect this excellent
spring water, which is far superior
to the present water in quality, and
in an emergency the wells will be
brought into action.
City Engineer A. T. McMichales
designed the plant and has charge
of the supervision of the construc-
ton. The Joseph L. Swiegard Con-
struction company are the c%ontrac-
tors.

Z ORDINANCES
FOR KEYPORT
One Changes the Borough
Building Code and the 9th
er Regulates Jitney Traffic
ny sp.ela1 correspondsni.

BY Special Correspondent.
KEYPORT, Aug. IL. Acting
Mayor Walter B. Cherry presided at
the regular meeting of the borough
council last Monday night owing to
the absence Of Mayor Bogardus.
Two ordinances recently compiled
by the borough attorney were taken
up for discussion. The n which
will be known al the building code
has been in the course of prepara-
ton for several months. The borough
attorney having been assisted by
several of the local contractors. The
proposed ordinance was read to the
council and 1t was decided that before
taking Ii up for first reading hat
an opportunity would be given to all
Of the builders and others who might
be interested in it to discuss its pro-
visions. It was accordingly arranged
that a special meeting of the council
would be held next Monday night and
the clerk was directed to insert In
the local papers a notice of the
meeting and request that all who
might be interested should appear.
The building code has for several
years been very much needed but
the councilmen feel that in order
that both property wners and con-
tractors should suffer no hardship by
reason of its provisions. 1t will also
mean a lot in regard to the sightliness
of the borough as its provisions will
enable the officials to have removed
several old delapidated buildings.
The other ordinance considered
was that regulating the licensing of
the jitney buses which now pass
through the borough soliciting pas
sengers for points without the
borough. AS there were n or two
changes desired 1t was decided to
refer 1t back to Borough Attorney
Van Buskirk for revision and to be
taken up for first reading at the
mex meeting.
The matter of the salaries of the
borough collector and the borough
assessor whose positions will be fill
ed at the coming election was taken
up. 1t was shown that seven years
ago John s. Hendrickson received
the sum of $1,000 a year and at
that time taxes were only collected
annually and water bills semi-an-
nually. Since then the water bills
have been sen out quarterly and
tax bills semi-annually thus doub-
ling the work. In addition thereto
there has been a great increase in
the number of water consumers and
the addition of the sewer assessment
on each water bill makes the work
a great deal more difficult. Mr..
Cherry suggested hat each council
man write on a slip of paper the
amount the salaries should be in his
opinion. This was accordingly done
and it was found that the average
was $1,000 for the collector and
$3.50 for the assessor. A resolution
was accordingly offered by Council
man Van Pelt, seconded by DIR.
Ogden that the salaries be accord
ingly and that they be in lieu of all
clerk hire and other expenses.
Whether or not these figures will ap-
peal to prospective candidates re-
mains to be seen at the coming pri-
maries. Based on the salary OF
seven years ago., the double amount
of work and the deprecated value
of the dollar the position would now
be worth $4,000. and $2,40o, respec-
lively.
