GOVERNOR (Continued from fourth page.) the county prosecutors and sheriffs, 1 and this combined force makes it possible to write a statute on the law : and to compel its' observance. 1 The manner in which the Governor may assert his power through the military forces in upholding state law, 1 was illustrated in the case of the ' strike and rioting at Paterson some ' years ago when Governor Murphy call- 1 ed out the militia to quell the disturb- ' anee, and thue was a more recent in- 1 stance, when Governor Fort called out 1 the Second Regiment to quell the riots 1 at Perth Amboy. 1 Next to his part in the lawmaking, ' Fielder's most important duty 1 will be the appointments he will be 1 called upon to make. ' During hie firtU term of office Gov- ' Fielder WH1' hare something like 1 appointments to make, the salary ' of which will aggregate about $100,000. < most of these appointments, the "ad- ' vice and consent of the Senate" to re- ' quired, which means that the Governor ' must send the nominations to the Sen- ' ate, where a vote to taken Upon eonfir- 1 mutton thereof. -i
I The Governor is the head of numerous state boards. He is the head of the Court of Pardons, and no clemency can be extended to a convict without ' his vote. He is likewise head of the State Treasurer and State Comptroller, which has charge of the maintenance j of the State House and grounds, the . erection of additions to the big building, ' - repairs, etc. These same three officials 1 also comprise the State Printing Board • which awards State contracts for State ; . printing, the Governor being chairman ( of the board. Another important fune- 1 1 tion of the Governor is that of a trus- , , tee of the state school fund. The total . . amount of securities in the school fund 1 ; . is more than $5,800,000. Besides the j . Governor, the trustees responsible for ' : ; the care of this fund are the Attorney \ \ 1 General, the Secretary of State, the 1 Comptroller and the Treasurer. Other ] of which tee Governor is the head 1 . The State Board of Canvassers, ] which canvasses the election returns; \ the forest park commission, white has j . charge of the atateforeqt preserves; and \ , the State Riparian Board, whic^ super- < - vises the riparian lands and grants there- , of, the income of white goes to the \ school fund. The Governor 1b also ex- , officio Chairman of tee Board af 'True- , tees of each local school for Industrial ] education hi the state which receives , state aid. v' ] Through the nature of his office, the 1
« Governor always has a very large cor- « : respondence, the answering of which is j r quite a task. There are other minor g ; duties also, which the Governor is g 1 called upon to perform. An old state ' law charges the Governor with the . work of licensing peddlers who travel • g . from town to town, "either on foot or ( with horses or mules.' This law is t 1 still in foroe. The salary of $10,000 a year has been ) paid the New Jersey Governor since . 1890. Before that the Balafy was $5,000. j The foregoing list of Governors does not include the five Acting Governors , who have served the state .The first , of the Council (Senate) and Acting Governor was John Lambert, ' j who served in this capacity . in 1802 and 1803. The other Acting Governors have been: Foster M. VoorRepublican, from February L - to October 18, 1898; David D. Wat- - Republican, from October 18, IMS, j to January 16, 1899; James P. Fielder, .Democrat from March 1. 1013, to October, 1913, and Leon R. Taylor, from October, 1913, to January 19, 1914. *- It may be said of Governor Fielder that he has tee confidence of the people of the State, to a very large extent, and independent of political affiliations. His record in the Senate was excellent, and those who served with him whether or of his own party, hold j him in high esteem.

Miss Addle Hand, who to employed at Court House, spent Sunday with her mother here. Agaig the fire question is being agitated. What would we do if a serious conflagration should start in the centre of our village. We have a scries of fire plugs through the main street which are paid for by a few of our citizens (and a mighty few) and not one foot of how, and even worse than that, not a person who even knows how to work a fire plug in case of a fire. In the aentre of our village within a stone's throw, there are' five business places, and by the purchasing of a few hundred feet of hose, something of this sort could be easily avoided and would probably be the means of saving several thousand dollar* worth of property and even human lives. Come, citizens, wake up to the fact and be on tee aafe aids. The dance which was given in the Grange Hall on Friday evening, wa« a grand success.
