CLIFFSIDE COUNCIL HAS MEETING
AT WHICH ROUTINE WORK IS DONE
BIG CROWD WAS ON HAND ANYHOW

ing, of the Cliffside Council on Mon
day evening. 1t seems that many
turned out, as information had been
spread that something was to be done.
Up to date our staff is unable to really
find what the big stuff was. Council
men Post and McEvoy were absent.
Several communications were read
these gave some effect to- the rather
uninteresting meeting.
The Cliffside Engine Company pre-
scented the names of their new mem
bers.
A petition was received from the
residents of Jersey avenue, all those
living between Anderson and the
trolley line having signed it. This
was to prevent a certain house from
being built on that avenue which it is
claimed will depreciate the value of
the property near. Councilman Sci
grist stated that neither the coming
or building laws could prevent the
building of such dwelling, the per-
NIT could be held up for time but it
would be best if the builder was per-
suaded and not ordered to change his
plans.
The engineers reported as having
satisfied Mr.. Stevens that the entrance
to the pumping station was not on his
property.
A request to install an electric light
at the corner of Lawton and Jassamina
Way was referred to the Street Light
ing Committee.
Magnolia Company asked permits
sion to make a sewer on Prospect
street from the houses they are build.
ing and to connect with the sewer
OF PaliSade avenue. 1t was thought
best that the matter be settled by the
engineers.
The street opening ordinance re.
ceived its second and third readings
as the rules were suspended.
The assessment commission met last
Friday evening and stated $15,S43. SO
is to be made by assessment, $14,279.97
is to be charged against the direct
beneficiaries and $1,563.56 against the
borough at large. A hearing was to
be advertised for the next meeting.
A letter from the manager of the
Palisadian, making application to be
made an official paper of the borough
was read. This started things for
few minutes. Councilman Seigrist
stated that advertising in one paper
(the Borough News) was enough AL
though it was made known that the
Palisadian, in making it's application
had actual circulation larger than that
of the official paper. Councilman
Marini stated that it was not fair that
everything be given one paper and dis.
elimination be held against another.
Mr.. Seigrist then said that the peo-
pie should know there is one official
publication and they know the ad-
vertising is in that paper.
Mr.. Marini answered this, saying
that the towns work should be looked
for in all papers as the contractors
and business people all get one paper
as well as the other.
On motion of Mr.. Mcguire the mat
Lei was ldlo OfCl uHIll llc AtAt LltGl-
ing.
A report Of Recorder Kenney for
the past six months was received.
1t was reported that $S3,35O more
in buildings were to be erected. This
making about $4,000 for the year.
Mr.. Lehstern asked where most of
the new people were coming from.
Building Inspector Robert Cadien
answered him saying: "Most of them
came from Hudson county,"
The sum of $165 was reported re-
ceived and given to the Custodian of
Funds. S. for dog licenses and the
remainder for street openings.
Residents of Jassamine Way and
Lincoln avenue reported what repre-
sentatives of the Gas Company had
made. 1t was arranged to have these
residents meet with Attorney Agnew
on Tuesday evening.
Temporary loans for $500, $2S5.1O,
1851. 10 and $4S.S7 were passed. Adj
