that the great majority of peor.-,
know too little about the Constitu-

which they live. Every free school
In the land should have a course on
Government, and the underlying
principles upon which this great Re

Civil Government is taught 10 some
extent in the free schools, but the
principles of this Government
should be an essential for both
girls and boys in their studies from
day to day.

GOT
LOTS Of TIME
Much Evidence to be Given in
Case Against Public Utility
Board, But He is Willing.

TRENTON. May 26-"Tve got
three years in which to hear it"
laughingly commented Governor Ed
wards here yesterday afternoon when
l.. Edward Hermann. general coun-
sci for the four members of the Pub
lie Utility Commission on trial be-
fore his excellency declared that it
would be necessary for the defense to
submit a mass of testimony, in the
way of records and witnesses to re-
flute certain charges made against
the board by Jersey City.
Just prior to this. the governor
had dismissed the motions made by
all of the lawyers representing the
utility commissioner which motions
were similar to a non-suit applica-
ton in a formal court trial and asked
the governor to dismiss the charges
brought by Jersey city.
Mr.. Hermann then asked the gov
eernor for a ruling as to whether the
charges or any of them were regard
ed by him as of sufficient force to
warrant further evidence from the
boards side in refutation. After a
long discussion between George l..
Record, Mr.. Hermann and his asso-
ciates Messrs. John Stryker, former
Judge William |. Lewis and V. G..
Palmer, 1t was decided that a further
hearing should be given beginning
Tuesday, June Is, at which time
Counsel Hermann will start Offering
proofs to dispute Jersey City's conten-
'tions.
Mr.. Hermann said that If the gov
ernor was satisfied with the conten-
tions made by the board yesterday. it
would save all parties considerable
time, il the executive should decide
to reach his conclusion upon what
has been presented thus far. This
brought forth the remark from Mr..
Edwards about his having three years
in which to hear all the testimony.

titled to every possible consideration"

HOLE-|N-WALL
AGAIN DISCUSSED
Resolution is Adopted at South
Amboy, But Hackett Says it
Will Not Do Any Good.

SOUTH AMBOY. May 26:-Steps
we're taken asst night at the regular
meeting of the common council TO
animate several objectionable feat
nres of the "hole-in-the-wall." Coun-
Gilman Hackett called it a bluff and
II caused quite some discussion. The
cause of the discussion was the fol-
lowing resolution:
Whereas it has long been advo-
Gated that the hole-in-the-wall be
widened to the width of the street
which 1t forms a part. and
Whereas, now because of h fact
that the state road commission has
decided to build a road through our
city, there is a danger that the rights
of the people of the MechanicsNille
Section may be overlooked or disre-
garded:
wherefore be ii resolved that it is
the wisdom of this body that the
h~ole-in-the-wall be widened 10 the
same width as the street of which IT
is q part and be il further resolved
that We solicit the support of every
civic and social organization that has
for it's object the betterment of civic
and living conditions. in our under
taking to the end that the hole-ln-
the-wan may be widened to its full
street width and that it may be no
longer held up TO the public of this
and neighboring states as a byword
and r%eproach: and be ii further re-
solved hat the entire matter be re-
ferred to the street committee with
power to ascertain what AN be done
in the matter
Councilman Hackett first took the
floor in objection. He said that the
first step would be condemnation
proceedings against the Pennsylvania
railroad.
ITS all 'bosh' to try and widen the
road and it's not going to happen.
We have no money for condemnation
proceedings he declared. It's not
going to be done, not in this genera
ton at least"
He maintained hat the city made
a big mistake when they did not take
the overhead bridge offered by the
railroad some time ago.
Nothing to It," he declared.
Councilman Delaney said Perhaps
you're right, Councilman Haekett'
but let's try. We MAY be able to &C
complish something If all hands get
to work"
councilman Hackett stated he
vould vote for the resolution but did
not believe 1t could be done. He did
not think the railroad company
would close 1t under any considera-
ton now. and what they go after they
usually get. This council should nght
for the overhead bridge and not this
sewer" they call the h~oie-in-the-
wall. !.
Councilman Shuey stated that II
was a matter IF time only when -the
sbutments Will cave in n the city
will be without redress. He urged a
fight for an overhead bridge TO elm
mate the hole"
The resolution was

STILL IN THE RING

The Automobile, Truck and Trac-
tor are fast coming into use but the
good old standby, the fine big draft
horse will never really have to take
back stall and look on, or be dis
pensed with. So far, with all their
modern and up-to-date methods of
farming and heavy road work, moth
ing has ever yet been invented that
would take the place of good draft
horse and do it at all time and under
all conditions. We note that Mr.. Fred
Hurd is still going to stick to the
good old sure way of getting back
when he starts out with a heavy
load. He has recently added to his
stock Of fine horses two of the finest
imported shire mares we have ever
seen. They are dark brown, hand
somely built, and will weigh about
$500 pounds. He has also purchased
as fine an imported Shire Stallion as
ever put hoof on Idaho soil. He is a
1000 pound horse without a fault.
Mr.. Hurd is a lover of horses and
knows a good one when he sees it. A
look at these three excellent animals
will bear out this statement.
