A FIVE-STORY HUILÙiOG.
Dr. G. W. Tyrrell is gring to take
a hand at talking Perth Amooy. His
kind of talk ν,'111 Include actions as
■well as words. The doctor announces
that he will put up u. five-story build
ing In State street on the site of his
present two-story frrme structure.
This will be one of the greatest im
provements this city has had in some
time. It will add greatly to the ap
pearance of State street.. Five story
buildings are not common in this city
as yet, but we are growing and Dr.
Tyrrell's project leads the way thus
far. This is the kind o£ talk that
counts. Let State street get the serv
er built and new pavetfient laid and
that thoroughfare will yet be able to
regain its lost prestige as a business
center.
THF GOVERNOR'S OFF JRTVNITY.
Whether or net Governor Stohee
■was lnihienceil by in·; ed; o-i^l which
appeared in the ..'cw.uk evening
News Monday night, Ihe announce
ment that he will send a special mes
sage to the legislature when it con
venes next month urging civil service
laws, jury reform aud choice of Unit
ed States senators by popular vote, is
encouraging. The governor will find
that public opinion will back him in
this reform legislation, as it backed
Governor Hughes in New York, if he
will put up the fight Hughes did.
The editorial which ' appeared in
the Newark News Monday is as fol
lows:
Wtien tne New York lesiBla
ture met, Governor Hughes, a
new man -and an inexperienced
politician, proposed popular re
forme. He found arrayed against
him the solid strength of the
democratic machine, led by Pat
McCarren, and the united
strength of the corporation
stand-pat element in his own
party, the regulars, led by Sen
ator Raines, of Haines hotel
fame. The Raines-McCarren com
bination showed its control of
the situation hy whitewashing
and keeping in office Kelsey, the
insurance superintendent, who
had proved himself Incapable
and inefficient, if not worse. The
same forces that saved Kelsey
were lined up to defeat the gov
ernor 011 his bills for regulation
of utilities and other reforms.
In New Jersey Governor
Stokes, an experienced politi
cian, urged upon the 1 · ture
a great reform in pubjie affairs
by the passage of a civil service
^ Ml. He found himself, as did
Hughes, confronted by the solid
and united opposition of the ma
ι chine bosses and the corporation
r
? and piratical interests of both
parties. There the parallel ends.
r Hughes went out before the
r
people and told them what the
conditions were. He asked for
I their help in forcing the legisla
ture to represent them instead of
ι doing the work of the corpora
tions and the bosses, and the
people responded. Cowed by the
force of public sentiment, the
Raines-McCarren combination
sulked for a few days and then
surrendered. The governor and
the people won.
Stokes tried to make terms
with the jjoliticians and the
I bosses to pass his civil service
I bill. Up to the present time he
has been beaten, and he is still
trying to win by making terms
with the bosses.
There is still time for the
governor of New Jersey to win
his fight for civil service, as
Hughes won his fight for his
utilities bill, but he has got to
do it by the same kind of fight
ing. An appeal to the decent
people of New Jersey for sup
port of a governor who was
fighting the bosses, the ma
chines and the corporations
would bring to his assistance an
irresistible public sentiment and
demand in which the bosses and
their puppets would be swept
away. The New York bosses
yielded to Hughes in an attempt
at self-preservation. Public sen
timent in New Jersey is no less
honest and vigorous than in New
York, but it can't be reached by
attempts to placate the bosses,
Hughes didn't win that way.
COMPETITION PAVS.
Competition pays. The growth of
the Citizen's Electric Light, Heat and
Power Company, made up of local
citizens, shows what can be done in
the line of public utilities when a
body of citizens hand themselves to
gether for a definite purpose. The
rival electric light and power com
pany has been a good thing for Perth
Amboy. It has broken the monopoly
of the Public Service Corporation. It
deserves its success.
The city is now paying the Public
.Service $!)5 per lamp for street light
ing. Other places, where there has
been competition or where municipal
ownership has been threatened, the
Public Service has furnished street
lighting for $70 per lamp or less.
This is evidence that competition
pays. We believe that the municipal
ownership agitation would soon die
out if there was a healthy rivalry in
all public utilities. When the pres
ent lighting contract here expires,
Perth Amboy will doubtless get a
$70 offer from the Public Service. It
will not be surprising, however, if
the Citizen's eoippany goes lower. At
any event, Perth Amboy is bound to
profit by the competition.
Mayor Bollschweiler is to bo coin
mended for the pride he takes in
the city's appearance. As far as his
power goes he is using every effort to
have the streets in presentable shape
and, with the excellent work being
done by the street department under
Alderman Stacey and Commissioner
Fullerton, Perth Amboy can afford to
feel proud of the present administra
tion.
