In discussing our article last week j aipon the question of the assuming of j TMponsibility*1>y the board of free- ■ holders for the building of city j at reels and their maintenance, a . cnt- J ;c said that-such things were entirely within the powers of the board of freeholders, the only guide being ■ their judgment as to what is proper and necessary. This seems 'to us to | be a most absurd doctrine. In the charter for each city, town or bor.- • ough the' powers of the governing | body are enumerated and chiei < among them is the power of mam- < iaining and caring for their streets | and highways. > It is certainly, therefore, a usurpation of power on the | part of any board of freeholders to | attempt to assume the powers grantoded specifically to cities towns and j boroughs and certainly not granted | to the board of freeholders. . It is ' doubtful, at least, whether t'i.erejs | another county in the state, it indeed ] in the entire nation, where a board ' ""\ of freeholders has. taken upon itself j the right and power to bind city, town and borough .streets, right in Jthe heart of said municioalilics. lius is the sort ->f thilnr that has In .krupted the county and given rise to all of the .corruption- Every representative from our cities and other municipalities has been scheming and contriving in every possible way to bleed the county for his. particular municipality right up to the limitEvery representative excepting those of Cape May City that is to say. Until recently Cape May representatives til recently - -- _

have let the bleeding go on without ■■ protest ami never made any visible $ effort to obtain for Cape May any- m thing On the contrary many things ■ distinct! v detrimental to Cape MawTO have bben allowed without a ques- 1 a •tio'n. Fortunately. our present mem- ■ bers will do and are doing differ-. V| entiy a t m i«j The. contmon rep.ort is that the re- j cent primaries were the- most cor- j rupt ever held in this county and that i huge sums of money were used to bring about results "pleasing to the; rum interests and to almost every evil group existing ih . the county. \ Whether these results were attained, it is for every legal voter to invest!gate and to discover for himself 01 herself. Shall this sort of thing be permitted to continue? Is the coun ( ty — corrupt "and "contented ?" Are the1 responsible, dQcent people willing to I have their voieeSu public affairs absolutely nullified InMheJuse of the- ( money of bootleggers, dive keepers! and every evil under the sun? 'Par- 1 tisan politics become a mockery and candidates may be of any old political belief and yet buy their way to j nomination on either ticket if ' they can colcct the aid and contributions > from bootleggers, grafters and other, sources, political and otherwise, to a | sufficient extent Democrats .with -plenty of money may bevable to buy Republican nominations for Democratic candidates or Republicans with the necessary money to buy Demo eratic nominations f«r Republican candidates. | How long shall this thing con- j """" tinue? It can be" stopped whenever those who oppose become earnest enough in their opposition to take the proper steps.
