BEW TO THE LINE,

Tbe milk inspection, lately made,will be profitable to this communityprecisely in the degree that tbe find-ings are. made public Users of milk-in btfier words, every family in tflwwould like to know wb^t the factsand conditions are. Is the milk unadnlteratedT "I»-it cleanT Are .thecows which produce it jiealtby, ~aa n the stables and barnyards keptin a wholesome condition?

The milk inspector's report, whenWed with the Cranford board ofhealth, will answer these questions,and the board will do only its plain

Jlpty toward the citizens by publishingthe report in fall. In a matter of suchimportance as this, the feelings of themilk dealers should have no influencewhatsoever. Tbe board's duty is tohew to the line, letting the chips fall

. where they may. - .

'.KELJEF.^.^

The rapidly progressing construc-tion of the jxaaeenger subway re veals

: a settled purpose on tbe part of the.New Jersey £entmM^M{^g«l»)£pony to maintain the Onion avenue

- grade crossing indefinitely, and it- therefore behooves the townspeople,

whether they like the situation or' not, to make the best of it. What

can't be cured must be endured.It is nevertheless true that, the dan-

ger and inconvenience incident to theuse of tbe crossing-may be greatlydecreased and tbe conditions madeeasier to endure by the carrying outof a plan suggested by our esteemed

__ fellow-citizen Harry Sanderson in aletter published by the CHBOMCLE ayear of so ago. Mr. Sanderson calledattention to thtf fact that the danger

, at the crossing was in large part due,to tba practice of stopping east-boundfreigbt and coal trains between Gar-wood and Cranford in order that the

Land, run-ahead to the tankbooseon the riverbank for water. Unfortunately, forCranford, the position of the tankbouse is so near the crossing thatnolessi tbe trains are stopped as justmentioned west of the crossing, thecars most stand on the crossing andobstruct travel during theentiretime•ised in renewing the engine's waterrappiy. 1 • •" '

Thus it appears that, while the pre-vailing method obviates an intolera-ble inconvenience, it multiplies thedanger by three, for it requires threetrip* of each engine over the crossing—forward for water, backward for

" "tnetrain, and forward ~again with 1fitsload of cars.

Two of these trips, llr. Sanderson-pointed out, could be dispensed with

frbnJwhich engines could obtain their wa-ter supply at a point west of the

. Such a pipe, connectediby :an underground main

- tank house reservoir, could be builtt small expense and operated withr

^additional cost. aagravitywoulAmaintain a water level equal to thatin tbe tank.

Mr. Sanderson's idea is sensible,feasible and capable of affordingsubstantial relief in a situation forwhich no method of cure is at presentavailable. We believe that the ideawill be considered and carried out bytheraflroad company if it is first en-

is that with the exception of Northavenue and South avenue, which are

I ready improved, none of the roadscrossing.the township boundary intoWe»tfleld, Linden, Clark or Uniontownships or the borough of Gar-wood is' paved on tbe further side.Palnut avenue and Centennial; ayj>-iue on the south; beyond Raritan•oad,are simply dirt roads. Thesame

troe:«f Springfield -avenue andOrchard street on the northwest andOrange avenue on theiKSfffiiSliES&aiSrevery foot of every one of'thesehoroughfures were paved . to the

tonnship limits they would apparent-ly lead to nowhere, for geographicallines tire not perceptible to a personin a carriage or automobile; Notuntil the.other municipalities namedare willing to. meet Cranlord withgood roads, will our 'township com-mitteebejustified in building pave,inents in unimproved sections of thetown.

Another- fact worth rememberingia that two dollars have been madeto do the work of three by selectingfor improvement the roads for whichby reason of their position state aidis available. One-third of the coBt ofthe work to be done .on Centennialivenuo tnts^yeaf w'uTbe DomT by theitaleV irotMflorffB.'tBetowrisuiiiill obtain $3000 worth ol pavement

at a cost to the taxpayers of $2000.To have let an opportunity like thispass unimproved would have been:he height of folly. .

The solution of Cranford's roadiroblem lies in part in the pavingif tbe streets on which improvements

have been mode and on which travelis frequent, and in part in obtainingthe adoption by the board of free-holders of Springfield avenue as acounty road and its pavement fromend to end at the joint expense of thecounty and state. This plan, it isprobable,cannot.beaccompliehed thispear, but aggressive, persistent efforta its-promotion will secure the im-provement in 1UQ$ or 1906.

The Beginning of Tammany 8oclety.1 Tammany society was formed inNew York.in 1789, chiefly through thtefforts of William Mooney, an uphol-sterer in New York City, Its firstgrand sachem, to oppose the federal-ists: '•" It fias ever since been an Im-portant political body, largely control-ing for many years the local New YorkCity government, and Ixi state and na-tional politics professing to adhereto the democratic party. The name"Tammany" is said by tradition tohare been taken from an aged, wiseand friendly Delaware chief, chosen forhis.virtues as the patron saint of thenew reQ.ubllo. The first meeting ofthe society was held Hay 12, 1T89.The act of incorporation was passed inIo05. Tho grand sachem and the 13sachem represent the ProsWent of theUnited States and the 13 original gor<erhors.

"As .to salary," he continued, "If you•ult mo, I will make it liberal; but onething you must promise me."

'"-' I at once expressed my willingnessto make the promise, If it .would not,.at any time, involve me in trouble.

After dinner I was Introduced to mycharge, who was the" exact counter;part In looks of his brother. I glancedfrom one to the other wondering how

_ It was possible for two men to be somuch alike. :

• "My name is William Harrison,"said tho brother who hired mo, "andthis Is Mr. Charles Harrison."

"Twin brothers," I said, looking• from one to the. cither.

"Yes^ wo. are twins," said Mr: Wil-liam. "Unfortunately, Charles is pe-

-—cullar -ln-hls manner,- and I wish, you.to look after him—In tact to be his.constant companion.". .

" "His constant companion," I repeat

keeper of the unfortunate insane com-munity, .

Mr. Charles, at times,'was violentand rough In his manner, but after Ihad given him a taste of the straightIacket a few times," he troubled Bevery little. Occasionally b« Wouldgo down on bis knees and- plead lovefar an Imaginary lady, then start upwith a blustering air, and order me.out of the room as if I had.no businessthere. And really.; I most say there— very little need of my staying byhim all t ie time; but I was paid for itso I was obliged to obey—

They were both bachelors, having-considerable property. Mr. Charles be-came insan* a few rears previous. Hisbrother preferred taking charge of himInstead of sending him to an asylum.

At times; Mr. William did not ap-pear as rational as he should be, but It-iras shls"pecullar .manner. I learnedFrom the servants that-he had been for(fears paying -hla 'addresses to a Miss3tebbins, an elderly maiden lady be-longing to one of the first'families ofLouisville.. She often visited thelouse. . He "would be very tender inIs manner toward her, and-would of-

.'er her his arm when they walked inthe garden, but marriage, or any ar-rangement to that end, was never Mnt-od a t He seemed to be content withpaying the polite addresses due from

At prwent. no other female appear-ed. The only conclnsion therefore tobe drawn was that Mr. William Harri-son and Miss Clarindt Stebblns, bothif the city of Louisville, were about to.commit matrimony.

As for myself, during the hot weath-jr having little to do, I was fast growingfat and lazy, tod the financial prospectbefore me looked decidedly cheering.So well had I managed my charge, thatMr. William hired me by the year; anagreement was made out, which weboth signed, that I was to continueIn the capacity of nurse to his brotherfor the space ot twelve months, be-ginning June the first, at a salary ofone hundred and fifty dollars a month.
