PROTEST MADE
Action of Aldermen Not Re-
cinded Despite Plea Made
by Alderman Mcclure

The Fayette street improvement
now under way was discussed at
length last night by the Board of
Aldermen at their adjourned session
on the motion of Alderman Robert
A. Mcclure. The attention of the
board was called to the improve
ment of the street by Mr.. Mcguire in
the interest of the property owners
along the thoroughfare that they OBJ
Ject to the improvement that is be-
ing made and want paving OF moth
Ing.
Alderman MCGUIRE put up a stiff
fight to have the board rescind the
resolution passed at the last meeting
awarding the contract for the work
to Lambertson & Reese of South
Amboy, but the aldermen and city
attorney pointed out that even If this
action should be taken, the matter
is in the hands of Mayor Wilson, and
should he sign the contract a reso-
luton If passed would be worthless.
Another phase of the matter and
which caused even greater eomplIea-
ton in connection with the case is
that the contractor has already be-
gun work on the street. This the
contractor did without the mayor
having signed the contract as yet,
but it was pointed out that often
b contractors start work as soon
as the resolution is signed, which is
considered sufficient evidence that
the contract has been accepted.
Aldermen Clark pointed out to
Mr.. Mcclure that the people of that
section had an opportunity to OBJ
Ject to the ordinance at the pub
lie hearing, but hal no one appear
ed and no objections were heard.
The only way in which the work
might be stopped, the city attorney
said was by taking the matter up
with Mayor Wilson n have him
not sign the contract.
FeIlpwing the meeting Mr.. Nc
Guire declared that he will intro
doce q resolution for a supplimen-
taryt debt statement at the next
meeting and intends shortly after
that to Introduce a resolution for the
paving or the street.
The supplemental debt statement
requested from the comptroller at
the last meeting, showed that the
city had 6.S4 plus per cent on hand,
or in-FeHnd~ figures about $4,000.
