OUTLINE HISTORY OF NEW JERSEY.
Within the limits of what is now the State of New Jer-
sey, aside from any evidences of the presence of prehis-
toric man in the "Trenton Gravels," the original inhabi-
tants of the commonwealth were Lenni Lenape, or Dela-
ware. Indians. This subdivision of the great Algonkin
family occupied the river valleys of the State, had made
some progress in agriculture and in elementary arts, were
peaceable but small in numbers, and at last have become
totally extinct in this portion of the United States,
In its settlement, New Jersey was not an English colony.
The claims of the Crown, based upon early discovery and
various grants, were totally Ignored by two great com-
mercial nations of Europe— Holland and Sweden. It was
not until 1664, practically a half century after the first
occupancy of New Jersey by a white man, that England
had aught more than a slight influence upon the destinies
of the State. In settlement, Holland was first to send out
planters, under the auspices of the Dutch West India
Company. Claiming both the valleys of the Hudson and
the Delaware, by virtue of the explorations of Hudson and
Mey, land was taken up upon the banks of the Hudson,
Passaic, Hackensack, Raritan and smaller streams tribu.-
tary to New York harbor, as well as at Gloucester upon
the Delaware. By 1630 these claims were well established
by occupancy, and by the creation of a centre of local
government in what is now New York city. Upon the
rapidly growing influence of Holland, Sweden looked with
jealous eye. Gustavus Adolphus, in his plan to make
Sweden a world-power, saw the Dutch to be dangerous
rivals in America. In 1638 there was equipped a Swedish
expedition to settle the valley of the Delaware. What
is now the State of Delaware, the valley of the Schuylkill
and isolated portions of the west bank of the Delaware
River were occupied, civil and military government was
established, and the colony of farmers and traders entered
upon a brief career of prosperity. The death of Gustavus
Adolphus, internal dissensions in Sweden, the inherent
weakness of the Delaware settlements, and the constantly
increasing power of Holland brought matters to a crisis.
In 1655 New Sweden was conquered by New Netherlands,
(7)

and for nine years the soil of New Jersey was absolutely
under Dutch control.
Emerging from the interregnum of the Cromwells, the
restoration of the House of Stuart brought peace to Eng-
land. On the 12th of March, 1C64, Charles II., with royal
disregard for previous patents, grants and charters, deeded
to his brother James, Duke of York, a vast tract embrac-
ing much of New England, New York and all of what is
now New Jersey. This was accompanied by active prep-
arations to drive the Dutch from America, as they, in
alien claims to New Jersey, practically separated the New
England colonies from Virginia, Maryland and the Caro-
linas. In the summer of 1664 armed vessels appeared in
New York harbor. After negotiations, the Dutch sur-
rendered and the power of Holland in North America be-
came simply a mattei of history. In the meantime James,
Duke of York, transferred to two favorites of the House
of Stuart— John, Lord Berkeley", and Sir George Carteret—
practically what is now the State of New Jersey. In
honor of Carteret's defense of the Island of Jersej"- (Cae-
sarea) during the Parliamentary wars, the territory was
called New Jersey (Nova Caesarea).
Carteret and Berkeley, in granting a liberal frame of
government and extolling the advantages of their colony
so well located for agriculture, commerce, fishing and
mining, attracted settlers not only from England, but
from Scotland and New England, particularly Long Island
and Connecticut. These planters were largely Calvinists,
from Presbyterian and Congregational communities, and
mainly occupied land in Newark, Elizabeth and upon the
north shore of Monmouth county. The valley of the Dela-
ware remained unsettled. The Calvinists brought into
East Jersey distinctive views upon religious and civil mat-
ters. Early legislatures punished many crimes by death,
the penalties being similar to those of the Jewish dispen-
sation, while the "town-meeting" strengthened the indi-
vidual action of the small communities. There was an
Intense individualism in every phase of political and relig-
ious development, the life of the people centering around
the church and the school house, the head of both, as in
New England, being the minister.
In 1676 a division of the interests of Carteret and Berke-
ley occurred. In the meantime Berkeley had disposed of
his rights to a company of English Quakers, a conflict had
ensued, and to establish the claims of all parties concerned,
the two colonies of East and West Jersey came into
existence. A line was drawn from a point in Little Egg
HISTORY OF NEW JERSEY. «
Harbor to the Delaware Water Gap, Berkeley and his
assigns retaining West Jersey as their moiety, Carteret
obtaining East Jersey,
By Berkeley's transfer the dominant Influence in West
Jersej^ was that of the Society of Friends. Salem was
settled in 1675, Burlington, Gloucester and the site of Tren-
ton about five years later, while within ten years there-
after the "shore" communities of Cape May and Tucker-
ton came into existence. The Society of Friends estab-
lished in West Jersey a series of communities in which
the life of the people was different from that of East Jer-
sey. As East Jersey resembled New England in civil gov-
ernment, so West Jersey resembled Virginia. The political
and social centres of the large plantations were the shire-
towns, slave owning was common, a landed aristocracy
was established, prominent families intermarried, and
under the advice of William Penn and his friends good
faith was kept with the Indians. Capital punishment was
practically unknown and disputes were settled frequently
by arbitration.
Two elements of discord marked the genesis of East Jer-
sey and of West Jersey. One, external, was the attitude
of the Duke of York after he became James II. In 1673
New Jersey was recaptured by the Dutch, who held the
colony until the early sprirg of 1674. A question arose as
to the Duke of York's title after 1674, reconvej^ances were
made, but in spite of past assurances, James II, claimed
the proprietary right of government. To that end Sir Ed-
mund Andros was commissioned Governor of New Jersey,
and a climax was reached in 16S0 when the proprietary
governor of East Jersey was carried prisoner to New York,
In 16S1 the Crown recognized the justice of the proprietors'
contention, and local government was re-established, but
not before the seeds of discontent were sown that bore
fruit in the Revolutionary War.
An internal disturbance was a contest between the
Boards of Proprietors and the small land owners. Both
in East and West Jersey, Carteret and Berkeley and their
assigns had transferred to wealthy combinations of capi-
talists—most of whom were non-residents— much of the
broad acreage of the colonies. With the land went the
right of selection of Governors and of members of Execu-
tive Councils, which right Berkeley and Carteret had
derived from the Crown, This, with "quit-rent" agita-
tions in East Jersey, led to much bitterness. Finally, dis-
gusted with turmoil, and viewing a sentiment of revolt
on the part of the people, the Boards of Proprietors sur-
10 HISTORY OP NEW JERSEY.
rendered to the Crown, In 1702, their rights of government,
retaining only their interest in the soil, East and West
Jersey were united, and the two provinces became the
royal colony of New Jersey.
From 1702 until the outbreak of the Revolution the polit-
ical history of the colony was quite uneventful. Through-
out the period of seventy-five years there was almost con-
stant friction between the Legislature and the Governor
and his Council. The governors, in the main, were Crown
favorites sent over the sea without a personal knowledge
of the colony and with but an ill-concealed ambition to
wrest from the people as much money as could be secured
for the support of themselves and the executive office.
The Councils, composed of wealthy land owners of the
Society of Friends and rich merchants from East Jersey,
were quiescent, and even the members of the popular
branch of the Legislature were chosen by those possessing
property qualifications. The small non-voting farmers
raised the cry of "aristocracy," and the equivalent of
"taxation without representation," and while loyal to the
Crown were open in their expressions of dissatisfaction
to the personal attitude of their governors. In 173S New
Jersey, in recognition of this sentiment, was given a gov-
ernor separate from the one appointed jointly for the colo-
nies of New York and New Jersey.
» During this period the farm was the centre of the activi-
ties of the life of the people; particularly was this true in
the western part of the colony, where favoring climate
and soil, slave labor and the proximity of Philadelphia led
to abundant crops and a good market. In East Jersey a
commercial spirit was more active. Perth Amboy threat-
ened to rival New York, and Jersey ships from Newark,
Elizabeth and the Monmouth villages were to be found
from Boston to Charleston. The repressive economic
policy of the Crown precluded the development of manu-
factures. In the southern part of the State, sand and un-
limited forests of oak and pine led to the development of
glass making, while "bog iron," with abundance of lime
from oyster shells, gave an impetus to the erection of
forges and bloomaries. These, as well as the copper mines
of the trap rock region, were throttled by adverse Parlia-
mentary legislation. Ship building was a recognized in-
dustry, and cedar was extensively "mined" from the
sunken forests of the tide-water district. Whaling and
other fisheries were unhampered, and were profitable, as
was also the trade in skins and in hay from the salt
meadows of the coast.
HISTORY OF NEW JERSEY. 11
Throughout the years from 1702 to 1776 gold and silver
and copper money was scarce. In obedience to the de-
mand of the English merchants that competition should
be crushed, legislation was enacted to draw "hard" money
away from the colony. An inflated paper currency, first
issued in 1707 to provide ways and means to aid the Cana-
dian expedition against the French, poured from the
printing presses. Trade was reduced to barter, and gold,
silver and copper were practically at a premium for nearly
three generations.
Of the more prominent incidents during the period were
the organized attempts to suppress piracy in New York
and Delaware bays, the growth of a well-defined system
of transportation by land and water between New York
and Philadelphia, the establishment of ferries and post
roads, the reclamation of waste land, the injection of
Hugenot, Scotch-Irish and Palatinate German elements
into the settled population, the chartering of Princeton
University and Rutgers College, the religious revival led
by Whitefleld, the propogation of abolition doctrines by
Woolman, the erection of a series of barracks owing to the
French and Indian war, and what is probably of supreme
importance, the growth of a sentiment of independence
fostered by the stupid policy of the Crown, and carried
from hamlet to hamlet, as much by itinerant hawkers and
by "Redemptioners," who had served their time, as by any
other cause. *
The opening of the Revolution found New Jersey's senti-
ment unevenly crystalized. Few, if any, were favoring
absolute independence. There were three elements. One,
the Tory party, was led by Governor William Franklin,
the illegitimate son of Benjamin Franklin. This conserva-
tive class embraced nearly all the Episcopalians, a vast
proportion of the non-combatant members of the Society
of Friends and some East Jersey Calvinists. Another ele-
ment was composed of men of various sTiades of belief,
some in favor of continual protest, others desirous of com-
promise. This included at the outbreak of the struggle
most of the Calvinists, some few Quakers of the younger
generation, and the Scotch-Irish. The third party drew
its support from a few bold, aggressive spirits of infiuence
whose following included men who believed that war
for independence would benefit their fortunes.
The part played in the Revolution bj^ New Jersey has
been frequently told. Events passed rapidly after the
affairs of Trenton and Princeton; Monmouth and Red Bank
will never be forgotten, while the raids at Salem, Spring-

field, Elizabeth, In the valley of the Hackensack, and the
winter at Morristown are a part of national history. Oc-
cupying a position between New York and Philadelphia,
its soil was a theatre where the drama of war was always
presented. At no time was the Tory element suppressed,
finding- its expression in open hostility, or in the barbaric
cruelties of the "Pine Robbers" of Monmouth, Burlington,
Gloucester and Salem counties. Though under suspicion,
the Society of Friends were neutral, for conscience sake,
remaining close to the teachings of their creed.
The close of the struggle found the people of New Jersey
jubilant and not disposed to relinquish their sovereignty.
The Articles of Confederation were weak and had become
a by-word and a jest. There was much State pride and
much aristocratic feeling among the old families who con-
tinued to dominate State politics. The Constitution of 1776,
adopted by New Jersey as a makeshift war measure, pro-
vided that all State ofRcers of prominence should be elected
by a Legislature, which was chosen by voters possessing
property qualifications. As in the colony, the Governor
was Chancellor, and class distinctions were closely drawn.
In spite of agitation, all proposed changes were rejected,
and a strong federal union with the other States was
viewed with dislike and suspicion. The State, in a quarrel
with New York, at one time refused to obey the requests
of Congress, and, in the exercise of her sovereignty, estab-
lished a Court of Admiralty and coined money.
While the spirit of "State rights" was dominant, it was
recognized by leaders of public thought that New Jersey
was too weak to stand alone. She entered the Annapolis
convention called to revise the Articles of Confederation,
and whose lasting monument was the present Federal
Constitution adopted in Philadelphia in 1787. Upon the 15th
of June of that year the "New Jersey Plan" was pre-
sented, which, while lost as a measure, led to the famous
compromise upon representation, whereby in the Senate
of the United States the States were given equal vote, with
a representation based on population in the House.
The adoption of the Constitution of the United States
led to the rapid growth of political parties in New Jersey
as elsewhere. In spite of the intense conservatism of the
State, led by the Quakers of West Jersey, who were Fed-
eralists almost to a man, the anti-Federalist sentiment de-
veloped rapidly, spurred by a virulent party press, the
death of men who had been trained in colonial methods of
thought and the democratic tendency of the Methodist
Episcopal Church, which grew in strength in W^est Jersey.
HISTORY OP NEW JERSEY. 8
In the eastern part of the State there was among' the Indi-
vidualistic Calvinists a strong anti-Federal spirit. This,
in ISOO, led to the election of Thomas Jefferson as President
of the United States, and in ISOl the election of his political
ally, Joseph Bloomfield, as Governor of the State of New
Jersey. The death of Hamilton at the hands of Burr, and
the death of Livingston, the "war" Governor, tore down
the strongest pillars of Federalism in New Jersey, and led
to the absolute domination of the State by the anti-Feder-
alists, who held power until the outbreak of the second war
"with England.
The period from 1790 to 1812 in New Jersey was marked
by a demand for internal improvements and better trans-
portation. The agitation concerning the Delaware and
Raritan Canal, Stevens' experiments in 1802 with steam,
along the lines laid down in 1TS5 by Fitch, the project of
the Society for Establishing Useful Manufactures at Pat-
erson as early as 1791, and highways conducted through the
northwest portion of the State, indicate the trend of public
sentiment.
The second war with England was not altogether a pop-
ular measure in New Jersey. The Federalists, the "Peace
Party," secured control of the Legislature and elected
their Governor. Nevertheless the State furnished her
quota of troops. The one permanent effect of the struggle
upon the State was indirect. Owing to the movement of
supplies and the necessity of quick transportation between
Philadelphia and the exposed port of New York, the wagon
roads between Bordentown and Perth Amboy, and between
Trenton, New Brunswick, Metuchen, Rahway, Elizabeth
and Newark, were improved and their advantages as
"short routes" demonstrated. Upon these lines two later
railroads, now a part of the Pennsylvania Railroad system,
were constructed.
The era following the close of the war of 1812 until the
opening of the Civil War was one of stupendous activity.
Interrupted only by the financial depressions of 1817 and
1837, and slightly retarded by the Mexican War, the pro-
gress of the State was beyond the wildest dreams of the
enthusiast, Alexander Hamilton. In the eastern part of
the State, aided by a constantly increasing foreign popula-
tion, Jersey City rose from the marshes, Newark grew
toward her present greatness, Paterson became a centre
of industry, while in the west, Camden was recognized as
an available site for manufactures. The public school
system was established and extended, reforms in the car-
ing for the criminal, defective, delinquent and dependent
14 HISTORY OF NEW JERSEY.
classes were Instituted, railroads were reaching every town
of size, in the vicinity of Now York and Philadelphia, fer-
ries were erected, banks established, post oflBces opened
and newspapers printed. In 1844, when social unrest was
most marked, the present State Constitution was adopted
by a large popular majority and needed reforms tending to
elevate the legal position of married women, imprisoned
debtors and bankrupts were adopted.
The year 1860 brought a termination to the then Impend-
ing conflict. While every other State north of Mason and
Dixon's line by 1850 had set the black man free, there were
still 236 negroes in bondage in New Jersey. The abolition
movement made slow progress and an anti-war party had
a decided following. But when the die was cast New Jer-
sey responded to the call for men and money. She fur-
nished 88,305 men, or within 10,501 of her entire militia.
For organizing, subsisting, supplying, supporting and trans-
porting her troops she paid $2,894,385, and upon the field
sustained the reputation for bravery she had won during
the days of Trenton and Monmouth.
New Jersey has made great advances since the Civil War.
Among the important legislation was the passage of the
General Railroad law in 1873. This ended the domination
of the Camden and Amboy monopoly and opened the way
for other enterprises in the same field.
Although the State passed an Emancipation act in 1804,
the Constitution was not amended as to legalize negro
suffrage until 1875. The Legislature of 1871 ratified the
fifteenth amendment to the U. S. Constitution which gives
absolute authority to the negro to cast his vote at all
national. State, county and municipal elections.
Women exercised the right of suffrage in New Jersey
under laws passed in 1790 and 1797. That right was taken
from them by an act passed in 1807. In 1912 the Supreme
Court held that the 1776 Constitution did not confer any
right on women to vote. The Constitution of 1844 limited
the right to vote to males. In 1887 women were given the
right to vote at school meetings. This was declared un-
constitutional in 1894 as to voting for school trustees and
officers ; they could vote, however, on other school matters.
A proposed amendment to the State Constitution in 1897
giving women the right to vote for school officers was
defeated. The vote was 65,021 for, to 75,170 against. In
1915 another proposed amendment conferring full suffrage
on women was defeated. The vote was 133,282 for and
184,390 against. In 1883 laws were enacted regulating the
labor of women and children in factories.
In 1838, the last whipping post disappeared from New
Jersey. It stood on a vacant lot in Trenton, where many
offenders had suffered the degrading punishment. Franklin
S, Mills, a veteran reporter of that time, called several

kindred spirits around him and they decided that the
whipping post must go. There was unanimous agreement
that the best time for its vanishment would be a darl? night,
and meanwhile the plot was kept a profound secret. The
plan was carried out and the post was never set up again.
The next step to lessen the horror of capital punishment
was in 1907, when the penalty was changed from hanging
to eloctrocution. In the same year tuberculosis was pro-
nounced infectious and a sanitorium for the treatment of
such patients was established.
Gambling at race tracks and all other places was pro-
hibited by law in 1894 and in 1897 a constitutional amend-
ment was adopted to the same effect.
In 1907 the first primary law went into operation. In
1911, the direct primary was extended to the offices of
governor and representatives in Congress. In 1915 it was
extended to the office of United States Senator. In 1911,
a blanket form of ballot was adopted. In 1907 the Board
of Railroad Commissioners for the State of New Jersey
was created, and in 1910, the name was changed to the
Board of Public Utility Commissioners. In 1911, the Em-
ployers' Liability act was passed.
The admirable system of public education in New Jersey
deserves more than passing notice. The first steps were
taken during the colonial period, and soon after the Revo-
lution a number of private schools and academies were es-
tablished. In 1816, the Legislature ordered that the sum
of $15,000 should be invested in a Permanent Educational
Fund. During the following two years, this sum was in-
creased to $113,236.78. In 1824, a tenth of the State tax
was added to the school fund. Improvement was continually
made in the educational lacilities, the annual appropriation
being increased in 1838 to $30,000. The new Constitution
adopted in 1844, prohibited the diversion of any part of the
school fund under any pretext. Two years later every town-
ship was required to raise the same amount contributed
by the State, and in 1851 the State appropriation was in-
creased to $40,000.
Since no one is considered qualified to follow a profession
without special training, it followed that that of the teacher
should receive the same preparation. In 1855, the first
State Normal School was opened in Trenton and proved
highly successful. It has been followed by others with the
most beneficial results to the cause of education throughout
the State.
In 1867, the whole school system was remodeled and
placed on a sound basis. Provision was made for the con-
tinual maintenance of the Normal School and the Model,
or training school, attached to it ; for the examination and
licensing of teachers ; for increasing the State Educational
Fund ; defining the duties of district and township trus-
16 HISTORY OF NEW JERSEY.
tees, the city boards of education, the county superintend-
ents, the State superintendent and the State Board of Edu-
cation.
In 1881, an act was passed by the Legislature to encourage
the establishment of schools for industrial education. In
1888, manual training was provided for and several such
institutions have been established. The Compulsory Edu-
cation law went into effect in 1884. Parents and guardians
are compelled to send children between the ages of seven
and fourteen years to school each day the schools are in
session, or provide for their instruction at home or else-
where. The State College for Agriculture and the Mechanic
Arts is connected with Rutgers College at New Brunswick.
Candidates for this course are examined annually at the
county seat of each county. The number of pupils is limited
to sixty and tuition is free. Other State institutions are
referred to elsewhere.
One of the most beneficent enterprises with which New
Jersey is specially identified is the life-saving service. The
United States has more than ten thousand miles of sea
and lake coast. Thousands of lives and untold millions of
dollars of property have been swept down to death and
destruction by the fearful storms which at times rage over
these waters. Of all the vast extent of coast, there is none
more dangerous than that of New Jersey. The causes of
this is the peculiar formation of the Long Island and New
Jersey shores, and the fact that a bar runs parallel with
the beach at a distance therefrom of from two hundred
yards to a mile. The water on this bar is shallow, and
many a ship, when driven toward shore goes to pieces long
before it can be reached by the anxious watchers on the
beach.
One of the residents of Monmouth county who was deeply
impressed by the frightful loss of life was Dr. William A.
Newell, a member of Congress from 1848 to 1851, and
governor of New Jersey from 1857 to 1860. It is worth
mentioning in this place that Dr. Newell was in Congress
when John Quincy Adams was stricken with apoplexy and
caught him in his arms as he was falling. Dr. Newell,
during the first part of his term, secured an appropriation
of $10,000 for the protection of life and property from
shipwreck on the coast between Sandy Hook and Little Egg
Harbor. Some months later, the ship Ayrshire was driven
on Squan Beach. The life car was employed to bring the
202 passengers and crew ashore and only one man who re-
fused to enter the car was drowned. Instances without
number occurred, when with the help of the life-saving
crew, not a single life was lost, when without such aid all
would have perished.
At the close of 1914, the life-saving establishments in
the United States included 285 stations, 203 being on the
HISTORY OF NEW JERSEY. 17
Atlantic and Gulf coasts, 62 on the lakes, 19 on the Pacific
coast, 1 at Nome, Alaska, and 1 at the falls of the Ohio,
Louisville, Ky.
Since the establishment of the life-saving service down to
June 30th, 1914, the number of disasters was 28,121 ;
value of property involved, $355,401,084 ; value of property
saved, $288,871,237; value of property lost, $66,529,847;
persons involved, 178,741 ; persons lost, 1,455 ; shipwrecked
persons succored at stations, 28,711 ; days' succor afforded,
59,659.
In addition to the 522 disasters in 1914, there were 1,415
casualties to lesser craft, such as launches, sailboats, row-
boats, &c., on which were 3,757 persons of whom all were
saved excepting 12.
As in every State and in the National government, the
government consists of the legislative, executive and ju-
diciary. The last named embraces the courts.
Justice's Court. — This is the lowest court with common
law and criminal jurisdiction. Suits involving no more than
$200 may be tried in it, and appeal can be had to the
Court of Quarter Sessions.
Police Court. — This is composed of a police justice, or a
justice of the peace appointed by him. His criminal juris-
diction in the city for which he is appointed is the same
as that of a justice of the peace. He tries cases of vio-
lation of city ordinances and appeal is to the Court of
Common Pleas, or Quarter Sessions, or to the Supreme or
Circuit Court.
District Court. — The jurisdiction of this court is limited
to the county in which the court is held. It has authority
in all suits of a civil nature in which the sum involved
does not exceed $500. exclusive of costs, including, disputes
between landlords and tenants and replevin and attachment
cases. Appeal is to the Supreme Court.
Court of Quarter Sessions. — This court has jurisdiction
over all offences of an indictable nature within the county,
except treason and murder. As a court of common law
jurisdiction, it can hear only appeals from the justices'
courts and the police courts.
Court of Common Picas. — The jurisdiction of this court
is extensive. It holds three stated terms each year and
special terms when so ordered by the Supreme Court. Its
original jurisdiction includes all personal actions not in-
volving the freehold ; the changing of the name of any
town or village in the county or of any person on his
request ; cases relating to insolvency, roads and wrecks ;
the property of absconding debtors ; applications for exemp-
tion from military duty, and it decides suits against con-
stables who neglect to execute warrants. It grants licenses
and tries cases referred to it by the Circuit Court. The
presiding officer is a judge appointed to that office. The
18 HISTORY OF NEW JERSEY.
justice of the Supreme Court, holdinj? the Circuit Court
within the county, is ex-officio judge of the Court of Common
Pleas. It can try cases referred to it by the Circuit Court
and certify the same to the Supreme Court.
Circuit Court. — This court has concurrent jurisdiction with
the Supreme Court except in criminal cases and has author-
ity to try Supreme Court issues. It holds three stated
terms annually and a special term when so ordered by a
justice of the Supreme Court. Appeals are taken to the
Court of Errors and Appeals.
Supreme Court of Judicature. — The chief justice and eight
associate justices compose this court, which may be held
by any one of the nine justices. It meets in Trenton on the
third Tuesday in February and the first Tuesdays respec-
tively of June and November. Special terms may be ordered
by the chief justice or any two associate justices. Its
jurisdiction covers all real, personal or mixed actions at
common law, and it has power to decide when the laws
and joint resolutions have not been duly passed and ap-
proved. It has authority to review the proceedings of other
courts and the only appeal is to the Court of Errors and
Appeals. The business of this court has grown to such an
extent that it has been divided into parts I., II. and III.
Court of Errors and AppeaU. — This court is composed of
the chancellor, the justices of the Supreme Court and six
specially appointed justices. It is the highest tribunal in
the State from whose decisions there is no appeal.
Court of Chancery. — The members of this court are the
chancellor and eight vice-chancellors. Its function is to
give such relief as is not given by the common law courts,
and appeal must be made to the Court of Errors and Appeals.
Surrogate Court. — Each county has a surrogate whose
duties mainly relate to will cases. Appeals have to be
made to the Orphans' Court of the county.
Orphans' Court. — This court is held by the judge of the
Court of Common Pleas, the justices of the Supreme Court
being judges ex-offlcio. It decides all disputes relating to
wills, the accounts of executors, the recovery of legacies,
the mental condition of persons in the military, naval or
marine service, the division of estates, &c.
Prerogative Court. — The chancellor is the judge of the
Prerogative Court, which has authority to grant the probate
of wills, letters of administration and the settlement of
disputes relating to the same. Its decisions are to the
Court of Errors and Appeals.
Court for the Trial of Impeachments. — This court con-
sists of the senate which tries the governor or any officer
of the State for misdemeanor while holding such office.
The impeachment must be by the assembly. A two-thirds
vote is necessary to convict and from such conviction there
is no appeal.
LIST OF GOVERNORS. 19
Court of Pardons. — This court consists of the governor,
chancellor and the six judges of the Court of Errors and
Appeals. A majority of the court of whom the governor
must be one, may remit fines and forfeitures, grant pardons
after conviction except in cases of impeachment, and com-
mute sentences of death to imprisonment at hard labor
for life or a stated number of years. There is no appeal
from the judgment of this court.
Court of Oyer and Terminer. — This court is composed of
any Supreme Court justice and the judge of the Court of
Common Pleas. It meets in the respective counties and has
jurisdiction over all offences of an indictable nature, from
which appeal may be made to the Supreme Court.
In addition to the courts specified, there is one for the
trial of juvenile offenders, which is for the beneficent pur-
pose of reforming rather than punishing youthful criminals,
and the Coroner's Court, whose duty is to inquire into
the causes of all deaths in prison and of those elsewhere
which have a suspicious appearance. No appeal can be
taken from the verdict of a coroner's jury.
It is a singular coincidence that the three presidential
cabinet members from New Jersey down to 1877, were each
Secretary of the Navy. They were, Samuel L, Southard,
1823-29 ; Mahlon Dickerson, 1834-38, and George M. Robe-
son, 1869-77. The cabinet officers from this State, since
the last-named date, were, F. T. Frelinghuysen, Secretary
of State, 1881-85 ; John W. Griggs, Attorney-General, 1898-
1901, and Lindley M. Garrison, Secretary of War, 1913-1916.
Having done so well with the cabinet. New Jersey gave the
nation her governor (Woodrow Wilson), in 1913, when on
March 4th he began his four-year term as President of the
United States.
The population of New Jersey in 1790 was 184,139 and
in 1915, 2,844,342.

DECLARATION OF INDEPENDENCE. 23
DECLARATION OF INDEPENDENCE
OF THE
UNITED STATES.
When, in the course of human events, it becomes neces-
sary for one people to dissolve the political bands which
have connected them with another, and to assume, among
the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to
which the laws of nature and of nature's God entitle them,
tl decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that
they should declare the causes which impel them to the
separation.
We hold these truths to be self-evident: that all men are
created equal; that they are endowed by their Creator with
certain unalienable rights; that among these are life, lib-
erty and the pursuit of happiness. That, to secure these
rights, governments are instituted among men, deriving
their just powers from the consent of the governed; that
whenever any form of government becomes destructive of
these ends, it is the right of the people to alter or abolish
it, and to institute a new government, laying its founda-
tions on such principles, and organizing its powers in such
form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their
safety and happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that
governments long established should not be changed for
light and transient causes; and accordingly, all experience
hath shown that mankind are more disposed to suffer,
while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by
abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But,
when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing in-
variably the same object, evinces a design to reduce them
under absolute despotism, it is their right, it is their duty,
to throw off such government, and to provide new guards
for their future security. Such has been the patient suffer-
ance of these colonies, and ?uch is now the necessity which
constrains them to alter their former systems of govern-
ment. The history of the present king of Great Britain is
a history of repeated injuries and usurpations, all having,
In direct object, the establishment of an absolute tyranny
over these States. To prove this, let facts be submitted to
a candid world:
He has refused his assent to laws the most wholesome
and necessary for the public good.
24 DECLARATION OF INDEPENDENCE.
He has forbidden his Governors to pass laws of imme-
diate and pressing importance, unless suspended in their
operations till his assent should be obtained; and when so
suspended, he has utterly neglected to attend to them.
He has refused to pass other laws for the accommodation
of large districts of people, unless those people would re-
linquish the right of representation in the Legislature— a
right inestimable to them, and formidable to tyrants only.
He has called together legislative bodies at places un-
usual, uncomfortable and distant from the repository of
their public records, for the sole purpose of fatiguing them
into compliance with his measures.
He has dissolved representative houses repeatedly, for
opposing, with manly firmness, his invasions on the rights
of the people.
He has refused, for a long time after such dissolutions,
to cause others to be elected; whereby the legislative
powers, incapable of annihilation, have returned to the
people at large for their exercise; the State remaining, in
the meantime, exposed to all the dangers of invasions from
without, and convulsions within.
He has endeavored to prevent the population of these
States; for that purpose, obstructing the laws for the nat-
uralization of foreigners; refusing to pass others to en-
courage their migration hither, and raising the conditions
of new appropriations of lands.
He has obstructed the administration of justice, by re-
fusing his assent to laws for establishing judiciary powers.
He has made judges dependent on his will alone, for the
tenure of their offices, and the amount and payment of
their salaries.
He has erected a multitude of new offices, and sent hither
swarms of officers to harass our people, and eat out their
substance.
He has kept among us in times of peace, standing armies,
without the consent of our Legislatures.
He has affected to render the military independent of,
and superior to, the civil pov/er.
He has combined, with others, to subject us to a jurisdic-
tion foreign to our constitutions, and unacknowledged by
our laws; giving his assent to their acts of pretended leg-
islation:
For quartering large bodies of armed troops among us;
For protecting them, by a mock trial, from punishment,
for any murders which they should commit on the inhab-
itants of these States;
For cutting off our trade with all parts of the world;
DECLARATION OF INDEPENDENCE. 25
For imposing taxes on us without our consent;
For depriving us, in many cases, of the benefit of trial by
jury;
For transporting us beyond seas to be tried for pretended
offenses;
For abolishing the free system of English laws in a
neighboring province, establishing therein an arbitrary
government, and enlarging its boundaries, so as to render
it at once an example and fit instrument for introducing
the same absolute rule into these colonies;
For taking away our charters, abolishing our most valu-
able laws, and altering, fundamentally, the forms of our
governments;
For suspending our own Legislatures, and declaring
themselves invested with power to legislate for us in all
cases whatsoever.
He has abdicated government here, by declaring us out
of his protection, and waging war against us.
He has plundered our seas, ravaged our coasts, burned
our towns, and destroyed the lives of our people.
He is, at this time, transporting large armies of foreign
mercenaries to complete the works of death, desolation and
tyranny, already begun, with circumstances of cruelty and
perfidy scarcely paralleled in the most barbarous ages, and
totally unworthy the head of a civilized nation.
>He has constrained our fellow-citizens, taken captive on
the high seas, to bear arms against their country, to be-
come the executioners of their friends and brethren, or to
fall themselves by their hands.
He has excited domestic insurrection among us, and has
endeavored to bring on the inhabitants of our frontiers, the
merciless Indian savages, whose known rule of warfare is
an undistinguished destruction of all ages, sexes and con-
ditions.
In every stage of these oppressions, we have petitioned
for redress, in the most humble terms; our repeated peti-
tions have been answered only by repeated injury. A
prince whose character is thus marked by every act which
may define a tyrant, is unfit to be the ruler of a free people.
Nor have we been wanting in our attentions to our Brit-
ish brethren. We have warned them, from time to time, of
attempts by their Legislature to extend an unwarrantable
jurisdiction over us. We have reminded them of the cir-
cumstances of our emigration and settlement here. We
have appealed to their native justice and magnanimity,
and we have conjured them, by the ties of our common
kindred, to disavow these usurpations, which would inev-
26
DECLARATION OF INDEPENDENCE.
Itably Interrupt our connections and correspondence. 'JThey,
too, have been deaf to the voice of justice and of consan-
guinity. We must, therefore, acquiesce in the necessity,
which denounces our separation, and hold them, as we
hold the rest of mankind, enemies in w^ar, in peace, friends.
We, therefore, the representatives of the United States
of America, in General Congress assembled, appealing to
the Supreme Judge of the World for the rectitude of our
Intentions, do. in the name and by the authority of the
good people of these colonies, solemnly publish and de-
clare, that these United Colonies are, and of right ought
to be. Free and Independent States; that they are also ab-
solved from all allegiance to the British crown, and that
all political connection between them and the State of
Great Britain, is, and ought to be, totally dissolved; and
that, as Free and Independent States, they have full power
to levy war, conclude peace, contract alliances, establish
commerce, and do all other acts and things which Inde-
pendent States may of right do. And, for the support of
this declaration, with a firm reliance on the protection of
Divine Providence, we mutually pledge to each other, our
lives, our fortunes and our sacred honor.

STATE CONSTITUTION. 73
State of New Jersey:
I, George Wurts, Secretary of State of the State of New
Jersey, do hereby certify the foregoing to be a true copy
of the Constitution of the State of New Jersey as amended,
as the same is taken from and compared with the original
Constitution and amendments thereto, now remaining on

74 THE STATE CAPITOL.
STATE INSTITUTIONS.
THE STATE CAPITOL.
This edifice, a massive structure, erected at sundry
times and added to at various periods, is located on
West State street, near Willow street. The grounds
have a frontage of 425 feet on State street and extend
southerly a distance of about 700 feet to the Dela-
ware river. The original plot, up to the year 1910,
had a frontage of 310 feet, extended back in a parallel-
ogram and embraced about S^/^ acres.
The seat of Government was fixed at Trenton by an
act of the Legislature, approved November 25th, 1790.
James Cooper, Thomas Lowery, James Ewing, Maskell
Ewing, George Anderson, James Mott and Moore Fur-
man were appointed commissioners to select, purchase
or accept so much land as was needed, and to erect
thereon suitable buildings for the use of the Legis-
lature. They purchased a site, containing about three
and three-quarters acres — a frontage on Second street
(now West State street) of 247 feet and 6 inches, and
a depth from the front to low water line of the Dela-
ware river of 666 feet — at a cost of £250 5s. The old
State House was a plain, bare-looking, rough-cast
building, and was erected at a cost of £3,992 3s. h^d.
By an act of March 4th, 1795, a building was erected
to serve as an ofl^ce for the Secretary of State, and
for the preservation of the public records, at a cost of
£620 19s. lOd. Numerous improvements and repairs
were made, and on March 3d, 1806, an act was passed
appointing commissioners to make certain repairs to
the State House, to provide and hang a suitable bell,
&c. This was done, and the bell was used for inform-
ing the members of both houses, as well as the courts,
of the hour of meeting. The bell was eventually dis-
carded, and an American flag substituted, which waves
from the building unto this day, when the Legislature
is in session, and upon holidays and State occasions.
In 1848, the State House was altered by the removal
of the rough-casting, and changing the style of the
front by placing neat porticoes over the front and
rear entrances, and erecting two additional buildings
THE STATE CAPITOL. 75
adjoining- the main one, as offices for the Clerks of
the Chancery and Supreme Courts. The rotunda was
also erected, and the grounds fenced, graded, laid out
and shade trees planted, all at a cost of $27,000. The
commissioners under Tvhose direction the "work was
completed, were Samuel R. Gummere, Samuel R. Hamil-
ton and Stacy A, Paxson. In 1863, '64 and '65, appro-
priations were expended in building additions for
the State Library, Executive Chambers, &c. In 1871,
Charles S. Olden, Thomas J. Stryker and Lewis Perrine
were appointed commissioners to cause a suitable ad-
dition to be built — more commodious apartments for
I the Senate and Assembly, &c. The sum of $50,000 was
I appropriated, and the buildings for the Legislature
: were ready for occupancy in time for the meeting of
the Legislature in 1872. In 1872, $120,000 was appro-
priated for completing the building, $3,000 for fitting
up the Executive Chamber, $4,000 for fitting up the
Chancery and Supreme Court rooms, and $2,000 for
fitting up the offices on the first floor of the east wing.
In 1873, the sum of $43,000 was appropriated for the
improvement of the front of the building, completing
unfinished repairs and improvements, and for fitting up
the Library, &c. On March 18th, 1875, the sum of
$15,000 was appropriated for the purpose of putting a
new three-story front to the building, and to fit up
offices on the second floor for the Clerks of the Court
of Chancery and Supreme Court, and for providing a
suitable museum for geological specimens, and the
battle-flags of New Jersey volunteer regiments, carried
during the war of the Rebellion.
On March 21st, 1885, the front portion was destroyed
by fire, and the Legislature appropriated $50,000 for
rebuilding, and in 1886, an additional appropriation of
$225,000' was granted.
The new building was finished in 1889. It is of rec-
tangular shape and of the Renaissance style of archi-
tecture, with a frontage of one hundred and sixty feet
on State street, a depth of sixty-seven feet, and three
and a half stories high, with a rotunda thirty-nine
feet across, which connects the new section of the
Capitol with the original part. The rotunda i« sur-
mounted by a dome one hundred and forty-five feet
high.
76 THE STATE CAPITOL.
The building has about sixty feet more frontage than
the former one, and approaches about ten feet nearer
the street.
The walls are constructed of solid, fire-proof, brick
masonry, faced with a light-colored stone from In-
diana, known as Salem Oolitic, with foundations and
trimmings of New Jersey free stone, from the Pralls-
ville quarries, in Hunterdon county. The portico, door-
head and trimmings about the door are of the same
material. The portico, with balcony, is supported by
massive pillars of polished granite and surmounted by
the coat of arms of the State.
The apartments used for offices are very spacious, fitted
throughout In the most approved modern style, and each
department Is supplied with one or more of the fineat
fire-proof vaults. The first and second stories are set
aside for offices, and the entire third story Is used for
the State Library, This front portion, including the
dome, was designed and constructed under the plans
and supervision of L. H. Broome, architect, of Jersey
City.
The old State Library apartments have been im-
proved and extended, and are now used as offices for
the Attorney-General, State Superintendent of Public
Instruction and Commissioner of Banking and Insur-
ance.
In 1891, a new Assembly Chamber was erected. The old
one was too small and poorly ventilated, and besides,
there was a lack of suitable committee rooms. The Leg-
islature of 1891 passed a Joint Resolution, which was ap-
proved on March 20th, authorizing the Governor "to pro-
vide a suitable chamber and committee rooms for the use
of the General Assembly of this State," &c., and also,
"to make such additions and alterations as will afford the
necessary accommodations for the Supreme Court and
Court of Errors and Appeals, or for other State offices,
and sufficient money Is hereby appropriated for that pur-
pose, to be paid by the Treasurer of this State on the
warrant of the Comptroller, after approval by the Gov-
ernor."
The new chamber was built by James W. Lannlng, of
Trenton, from plans prepared by James Moylan, of Jer-
sey City, and under the superintendency of Bernard J.
Ford of Newark. It covers the site of the former cham-
ber, and extends beyond It to Delaware street on the
east and to the water power on the south. It has a front-
age on Delaware street of 120 feet and a depth of 75 feet.
THE STATE CAPITOL. 77
The exterior finish and design of the building are similar
to the adjoining portion of the Capitol. The foundation
is of brown stone, from the Stockton quarries, and the
trimmings of light Indiana stone. The Interior Is finish
ed in Trenton tile, quartered oak and Italian statuary
marble. It Is a fire-proof building throughout, and is
specially ventilated. The committee rooms are ample and
convenient, and the Interior design arrangement and fin-
ish make It a model legislative chamber. It cost the
State $140,500. The cost of the steam heating and ventilat-
ing systems was about $25,000.
The other new addition to the Capitol provides a oonsul-
tatlon room for the Judges of the Supreme Court and the
Court of Errors and Appeals and a private room for the
Governor, a room for the Museum of the Geological Sur-
vey, and other offices, and cost $34,500.
Two Otis elevators have been placed in the building,
which gives easy access to all the upper floors.
In 1900 the Legislature appropriated $96,000 for additions
and alterations to the Capitol, which included the cost of
an electric light plant.
A new Senate Chamber was erected in 1903, and was
ready for occupancy in 1904, at a cost of about $182,-
000. In 1904 about $60,000 was expended for other im-
provements in the Capitol. The architect wars Arnold
H. Moses, Merchantville.
Another addition was made to the Capltoi In 1907 at
a cost of about $100,000. It is a massive structure of a
classical style of architecture and is finished in stucco
to match the rest of the Capitol. It contains four
stories above a deep basement. The construction Is
fire-proof, consisting of solid brick walls, steel beams
and columns and concrete floors. The exterior Is at-
tractive with its classic lines and Indiana limestone
trimmings. The structure was designed and all the
plans drawn by George B. Poole, State Architect.
In 1911 the Legislature made an appropriation of
$60,000 for the extension of the west wing of the front
part of the building, and in 1912 $70,000 was appro-
priated for the extension of the east wing.
In 1910 and subsequent years to 1915, the State pur-
chased Delaware street, the Green property which
fronted on West State street, properties which fronted
on Front and Willow streets and which extended to
the old Water Power, now Sanhican creek, all of
which embrace about the same area as the old State
78 THE STATE LIBRARY.
House site, 3^4 acres, making a total of about 7 acres
north of the creek.
The land across Sanhican creek, that has been ac-
quired by the State, has been filled in to the river wall,
is computed to be about 19 or 20 acres, making the
sum total of the State's holdings about 26 acres. The
river park has been laid out and completed by the
State and the city of Trenton, the area of which is
about 40 acres. The old Revolutionary Barracks and
the old Masonic Temple have been preserved on the
park grounds. The State park contains about 19
acres, is an up-to-date enterprise and presents a most
beautiful and attractive appearance. The cost of all
the improvements was about $400,000.
THE! STATE LIBRARY.
This valuable collection of books Is located on the third
floor of the State Capitol. The old saying, "Great oaks
from little acorns grow," most appropriately applies to
this Institution.
The first library of the State was a case ordered to be
procured by Maskell Ewing, Clerk of the House of As-
sembly, for the keeping and preservation of such books
as belonged to the Legislature. It was ordered by a reso-
lution passed March 18th, 1796. This was the nucleus of
the present extensive library. On February 18th, 1804,
William Coxe, of Burlington; Ezra Darby, of Essex, and
John A. Scudder, of Monmouth, were appointed a Com-
mittee on Rules to make a catalogue; they reported that
there were 168 volumes belonging to the State, and pre-
sented a code of seven rules, which was adopted. On
February 10th, 1813, an act (the first one) was passed, en-
titled "An act concerning the State Library." Up to 1822
it appears that the Clerk of the House had charge of
the books, as Librarian, and, on November 16th, 1822, an
act was passed for the appointment of a State Librarian,
annually, by joint meeting. In 1846, on April 10th, an act
was passed making the term of office three years. The
Law Library at that time belonged to the members of
the Law Library Association. The only persons allowed
the use of the Library were members of the Association,
the Chancellor, and the judges of the several courts.
Stacy G. Potts was Treasurer and Librarian of the Asso-
ciation. The Law Library was kept in the Supreme Court
room until 1837, when the Legislature authorized the
State Librarian to fit up a room adjoining the Library
THE STATE ARSENAL. 79
for the care and reception of the books and papers be-
longing to the State Library, Thus the two Libraries
■uere consolidated. On March 13th, 1872, $5,000 per
year for three years was appropriated for the Library
by the Legislature, and by the act of March 15th, 1876,
the sum of $2,500 was appropriated for finishing and
refurnishing the Library room. In 1890, the Library
was removed to the third story of the new part of the
Capitol.
In 1904 the Legislature made a special appropriation of
$15,000 for the installation of steel stacks, and the shelf-
space was doubled. There Is room now for more than
125,000 books and pamphlets. About the same time the
decimal classification system was introduced and the
work of making a modern card catalogue begun, which
was practically finished in 1905.
THE STATE3 ARSENAL.
The building now used as the State Arsenal was form-
erly the old State Prison. It Is situate on Second street,
in the Sixth Ward of the city of Trenton, and has on its
front the following Inscription:
Labor, Silence, Penitence.
The Penitentiary House,

Independence, MDCCXCVIL

Crimes May Learn to Fear the Laws
And be Useful.
HIc Labor, Hoc Opus.
In the messages of Governors P. D. Vroom and S. L.
Southard, recommending the erection of the new prison,
It was proposed that the old one be converted Into an
Arsenal for the safe keeping of the arms and military
property of the State, which, previous to that time, had
been kept In the old State Bank, corner of Warren and
Bank streets, with accoutrements and camp and garrison
equipage at the State House. After the removal of the
State convicts from the old prison, permission was given
to the county of Mercer to occupy it as a jail until Its
Jail, then In course of completion, was finished, and when
It was again vacated It was converted Into an arsenal.
Among the stores, &c., at the Arsenal are one bronze
giin, French, of the date of 1758; two bronze guns, Eng-

llsh, four-pounders, and two Iron six-pounders. There is
also one gun captured at the battle of Trenton, December
26th, 1776, and two guns captured at Yorktown, October
19th, 1781. There are also a large quantity of fire-arms,
ammunition, ordnance, tents, clothing, blankets, &c.
STATE HOSPITAL.
Trenton.
This institution is located. on the left bank of the
Delaware River, about two miles northwest of the
City Hall. The buildings are constructed of reddish
sandstone, obtained from quarries near the hospital,
and are located on an elevation of about seventy-five
feet above the river. The front of the Main, or Ad-
ministration Building, is ornamented by a handsome
porch of Ionic architecture, designed by the celebrated
Notman, from which may be obtained one of the finest
landscape views in the State.
In 1844, after repeated and unsuccessful attempts
to cause action to be taken by the Legislature for
the building of a State institution for the special care
and treatment of the Insane, a commission was ap-
pointed, chiefly through the earnest efCorts of Dr.
Lyndon A. Smith, of Essex, and Dr. Lewis Condict,
of Morris, and the eminent philanthropise. Miss D. L.
Dix, to select a site. An appropriation of $35,000 was
made to purchase the land and to commence the erec-
tion of the building. The present site was selected
by the commissioners from among many that were
offered In various sections of the State, because of
the large spring of excellent water found on the place.
This spring was developed, and furnished a dally
supply of about one-half million of gallons of pure
water for many years. In the severe drought of 1880
the supply was greatly diminished, falling off nearly
two hundred and fifty thousand gallons. In 1907 the
city sewer, running about 200 feet from the spring,
burst or overflowed, and this caused contamination of
the water .supply, resulting in a typhoid epidemic, so
that It was necessary to discontinue the use of the
spring. At present the hospital Is supplied with
water by six artesian wells, one of which gives 150
gallons of water per minute. The spring has been
filled up, and thus an Important landmark destroyed.
STATE HOSPITALS. 81
Work was commenced on the main building in No-
vember of 1845, and the hospital was opened for the
reception of patients on tne 15th day of May, 1848.
Numerous additions have been made from time to
time to the building, increasing Its capacity.
In 1887 the Legislature passed an act appropriating
$100,000 for providing additional accommodations. The
new building is a handsome structure of red sand-
stone, and similar to that used in the main building.
This is five hundred feet long, three stories in height,
and capable of accommodating three hundred patients,
one hundred and fifty of each. The building is de-
signed to accommodate the chronic incurable class,
and was a great relief from the overcrowded state
that existed in the main building prior to its comple-
tion. The building was completed within the appro-
priation, and opened for the reception of patients
in the month of October, 1889.
Much has been done for the comfort and pleasure
of the patients. A greenhouse has been erected for
the purpose of furnishing plants and fiowers for the
patients' corridors, handsome pictures adorn the
walls, and everything about the hospital presents a
comfortable and homelike appearance.
The institution possesses a library, one of the larg-
est, if not the largest, in this country, connected with
a hospital for the insane. The books are accessible
to all members of the household. They have been
freely used, and do much to relieve the monotony of
many an hour of hospital life. The library now con-
sists of about 4,000 volumes, and Is the result of the
bequest of a former nurse (Anne Robinson) who, by
will, bequeathed her earnings for several years as a
nurse and attendant in this hospital. She made the
bequest, as she herself expressed it when making her
will, for the purpose of purchasing books to be used
for the pleasure and benefit of those to whom she
had, for so many years, endeavored to minister.
During the year 1898 a handsome amusement room,
capable of seating about four hundred, was finished;
also, a large and commodious chapel, in which relig-
ious exercises are held every Sunday, when various
clergymen, without regard to denominational prefer-
ence, officiate. The new chapel is capable of seating
about five hundred patients. In 1904-1905 an appro-
82 STATE HOSPITALS.
priatlon of $250,000 was made for the erection of two
additional wings to the annex building-, which will
accommodate 400 more patients. In 1905 the Legisla-
ture appropriated $12,500 for the construction of fire
escapes.
A few years ago a modern laboratory building was
erected, and at the present time is fully equipped for
scientific work.
In 1907 the new wings, spoken of above, were opened
for the reception of patients, so that now the hospital
Is not overcrowded.
In 1908 the Legislature appropriated $111,000 for
extraordinary Improvements, which Included instal-
lation of modern plumbing throughout the buildings,
also tiling for toilet rooms, water sections, etc.
Two buildings for tuberculosis patients, male and
female, have been erected, and will accommodate
twenty-five, each known as the "open air" ward.
Since January 1st, 1908, there has been no mechan-
ical restraint of any kind used in the hospital. All
restraint apparatus, chairs, straight jackets, straps,
etc., have been removed from the hospital building,
and are stored away where no one can get at them.
During the year 1909 the plumbing and tiling of the
old building was completed, and the sanitary arrange-
mxents for the hospital have been considered by those
competent to judge, to be the best of any public insti-
tution of this character.
In both the male and female departments a hydro-
therapeutic apparatus has been installed for giving the
continuous bath treatment. This apparatus was made
especially for the hospital, and has given satisfactory
service in the treatment of acutely excited cases.
The Legislature of 1911 appropriated $103,000 for ex-
traordinary improvements. Two farms in the neigh-
borhood of Trenton Junction have been purchased,
which will add 250 acres of farm land to the hospital.
A new laundry has been erected and equipped with
modern machinery, at a cost of $30,000.
The Legislature appropriated $2,800 for research
work, which enables the hospital to employ two
trained field workers who go out in the community
and look up facts regarding the patients' heredity
and personal history, which gives valuable informa-
tion to the medical history. They also engage in
"after care" work, I. e„ in visiting discharged patients

at certain intervals, Investigating their condition, and
reporting to the hospital any unusual conditions which
have any bearing on the recurrence of mental disease.
During the years 1910 and 1911 $5,000 has been spent
for furniture for' the wards. The Legislature of 1912
appropriated $165,000 for new buildings. Including
one for the criminal insane.
STATE HOSPITAL.
Morris Plains (P. O. Greystone Park).
Further provision for the accommodation of the In-
sane being made necessary by the overcrowded con-
dition of the State Hospital at Trenton, the Legislature
of 1871 appointed a commission to select a site and
build a hospital In the northern part of the State.
At a cost of $78,732.36 a tract of 408 acres of land,
beautifully situated in the hills of Morris County,
was purchased and work on the hospital buildings
begun.
Additional tracts of land have since been purchased
at a cost of $32,318.00, making a total of 897 acres,
at a total cost of $111,050. The original building, now
known as the "Main Building," was erected, at a cost
of $2,511,622. The "Dormitory Building" and a new
reservoir, made necessary by Its construction, cost,
when completed, about $650,000; a new laundry build-
ing, $18,200; the nurses' cottage, $20,000, and In 1907
the annual appraisement placed the personal prop-
erty of the hospital at $294,709, thus making the total
cost of the entire plant approximately $3,605,581.
The location is ideal for an Institution caring for
the mentally afflicted, and is unsurpassed in this par-
ticular by any similar institution in the United States.
The buildings command a magnificent view of the
surrounding country, and the air is cool and balmy in
Summer and crisp and stimulating In "Winter.
The main building, opened In 1876, Is four stories
In height, 1,243 feet In length, 542 In depth, and has
ten acres of floor space, it contains the executive
offices, receptions rooms, medical library, chapel,
amusement hall and forty wards, which, when crowded
to their full capacity, will accommodate 1,200 patients.
In 1901 the dormitory building was completed. It
is situated 1.200 feet In the rear of the main building.

accommodates 600 patients, and Is constructed on the
day room and dormitory plan. On the fourth floor
of the building- are well-equipped pathological and
chemical laboratories, five splendidly-lighted rooms on
the top floor of the northeast tower being devoted to
this work. The laboratories have been well equipped
with many of the latest and best Instruments for the
prosecution of scientific, clinical and research work,
and have proved to be a highly Important adjunct to
the purely psychiatric work of the hospital.
A cottage for nurses was built in 1906. This is a
three-story brick building, trimmed with sandstone,
and Is situated in front and to the south of the main
group of buildings. It is within easy access of the
female wards, and affords sleeping quarters for forty
female nurses, who formerly, after working- dally fif-
teen hours with the Insane, were compelled to spend
their nights in the wards, in close proximity to noisy
and disturbed patients. In addition to furnishing ac-
commodation for the night, the cottage has a recep-
tion room and library, where the nurses may spend
their time when off duty.
In order to give the hospital a better mail service,
the United States government, on March 23, 1908, es-
tablished a new post office in the main building of the
hospital, and named It Greystone Park. The mail
matter of the institution was formerly handled at
Morris Plains post office, which is one and one-half
miles from the building.
The Legislature of 1911 appropriated $15,000 for the
erection of a new fire house. This fire house provides
stabling quarters for two horses and sleeping room for
twenty male employes who are always to be members
of the fire department.
The same Legislature appropriated $40,000 for the
erection of a male nurses' home. This building accom-
modates seventy-six men nurses.
A cold storage plant has been added to the institu-
tion which produces five tons of ice per day and also
provides a room for the storage of hospital food sup-
plies.
The Legislature of 1911 made an appropriation of
$15,000 for a dynamo and building, and there was also
appropriated $10,000 for a building for the segregation
of tubercular patients. The same Legislature also ap-
STATE HOSPITALS. 85
proprlated $8,000 for screening the windows of the
main building and dormitory building.
The Legislature of 1912 appropriated $69,000 for
new buildings and alterations.
A Training School for Nurses was established in
1894 and it has proved to be of great advantage to the
hospital In the humane care and treatment of the in-
sane. A graded three-years' course is given to the
nurses and consists of lectures and practical demon-
strations given by the medical staff in anatomy, physi-
ology, materia medica and therapeutics, chemistry and
toxicology, obstetrics and gynecology, genito-urinary
diseases, practice of medicine, minor surgery, practical
bedside nursing and bandaging. The course is com-
pulsory upon all who are employed as attendants, and
since the establishment of the school, 226 persons have
been granted diplomas.
Further provision for the scientific treatment of
patients has been made by the equipment of rooms,
both in the male and in the female departments, with
complete hydrotherapeutic apparatus and by the
Installation of electrotherapeutic appliances, and a
powerful static machine in a room in the main build-
ing, convenient to both male and female departments.
A room has also been set apart and fully equipped
with Instruments and appliances for the examination
and treatment of patients suffering from diseased
conditions of the eye, ear, nose and throat.
The medical library contains over 1,300 volumes of
carefully-selected text books and reference works on
medical and other scientific subjects, together with
well-bound volumes of the annual reports of every hos-
pital for the insane In the United States, Canada, South
American States and many of the countries in Europe.
Among the many Improvements added In recent
years is a new system of keeping case records. The
complete record of each patient from the time he en-
ters the hospital until he Is discharged Is kept in a
separate envelope, filed vertically in steel cabinets
especially constructed for the purpose. The files are
thoroughly cross-indexed, which permits of needful In-
formation being rapidly and easily obtained In any
given case.
Additional protection from fire has been provided
by equipping the hospital with the Kirker-Bender type
of fire escape.
86 NORMAL AND MODEL SCHOOLS.
Fire drills are held at regular Intervals so that the
patients may become familiar with the location of the
fire escapes and accustom themselves to their use so
as to enable them In the event of fire to go through
this means out of danger In an orderly and expeditious
manner.
The hospital has equipped Dental Rooms with the
latest and most modern appliances, thus enabling the
Resident Dentist to do scientific work for the patients
needing dental attention.
The Legislature -of 1912 appropriated $15,000 for a
storehouse in which all' supplies are kept, andi $8,000
was also appropriated for the construction of an in-
dustrial building which is equipped with apparatus
and supplies of the manufacture of a great variety
of hospital utilities.
The normal capacity of the institution is 1,600
patients. In 1914 there were 2,500 patients under care
and treatment, being 900 over the normal capacity
and increasing annually by about 100. Owing to this
condition the percentage of recoveries must of ne-
cessity be small and the proper classification of the
different psychoses is impossible.
STATE NORMAL AND MODEL SCHOOLS
at Trenton.
These schools are located at the junction of Perry
street and Clinton avenue. There are two buildings,
the school building on the west side of Clinton avenue,
and the boarding halls and dormitories, situated on the
east side of the avenue. These schools were estab-
lished in 1855 by an act of the Legislature. The
purpose of the Normal School was defined to be "the
training and education of its pupils in such branches
of knowledge, and such methods of teaching and
governing, as will qualify them for teachers of our
common schools." The Model School was designed to
be a place where "the pupils of the Normal School
shall have opportunity to observe and practice the
modes of instruction and discipline inculcated in the
Normal School.
The Normal School offers to graduates of approved
four year high schools the following courses: a two
year general course; a two year kindergarten course;
a two year domestic science course; a two year com-
mercial course; a two year manual training course;
a four year high school teachers' course, equivalent to
a teachers' college course; an industrial arts teachers'
course given in conjunction with the Trenton School
of Industrial Arts. Special courses are offered in voice
training, piano and violin, and electives in advanced
work in a number of other branches.
NORMAL AND MODEL, SCHOOLS. 87
The Model School begins with the kindergarten and
includes a full secondary or high school curriculum.
It offers three courses: The classical, Latin scientific
and English.
The buildings are equipped with laboratories, gym-
nasium, and the modern appliances necessary to good
work.
The following figures show the first cost to the State
and the present valuation of the Normal School prop-
erty. The first cost to the State has been supplemented
from time to time bj- the contributions of private in-
dividuals, and by balances from the Boarding Hall
receipts after meeting the annual expenses of the Hall.

MOXTCLAIR STATE NORMAL .SCHOOL,
Upper Montclair, New Jersey.
The Montclair State Normal School is located in the
extreme northern part of Montclair on a plot of more
than twenty-five acres. By special act of the legis-
lature, so much of this site as was originally in Pas-
saic county was set over into Essex county.
A more beautiful or healthful site could not have
been selected. The grounds have an elevation of 400
feet above sea level and command an uninterrupted
view of a. landscape of remarkable beauty. The
Orange range stretches away to the right, while at
the front and left the Passaic valley, the Hudson
and the taller buildings of New York City are plainly
visible.
MONTCLAIR NORMAL, SCHOOL. 89
The main school building-, in the mission style,
334 feet long and 133 feet deep, of brick covered with
white stucco, is situated on the highest part of the
grounds, facing the New York landscape. In front
is an esplanade 260 feet long and 44 feet wide, pro-
tected by a concrete wall from which steps descend
to the lawn.
About 500 feet directly in front of the main school
building, parallel to it and connected with it by a
broad walk of brick, is the Russ Memorial Dormitory,
the gift of the late Edward Russ of Hoboken.
This building, which was opened for the reception
of students in September, 1915, is fireproof throughout
and is designed in the Spanish Mission style, with
white stucco exterior walls and red Spanish tile roof,
to conform in character to the present Normal School
building.
The dormitory accommodates 96 students, there
being 52 single rooms and 22 double rooms. Each
floor is provided with ample bath and toilet room
facilities, and at each end of the hall, conveniently lo-
cated, are two enclosed fireproof stairs extending from
the top floor to the ground and giving ample exits.
The main floor is particularly well planned for the
social requirements of a school. The living room
at one end is 33 feet wide and 40 feet long, having
at one end a reading room, 13 feet by 32 feet. This
is elevated a few steps above the general level of the
living room and is used as a reading room and as a
stage for giving amateur plays. On one side of the
living room is a large open fireplace, which adds
much to the attractiveness of the room.
At the other end of the building is the large dining
room, accommodating 110 persons. This is finished in
old ivory tints and has an attractive fireplace at one
side of the room.
The kitchen and serving rooms are up-to-date in
every respect. They are arranged with a view to the
best sanitary requirements and every convenience of
a large kitchen has been installed.
On the first floor is located the matron's suite, which
contains a living room and bedroom. There is also
a reception room for visitors and a hospital room.
The basement contains store rooms, trunk rooms
and a large and well-equipped laundry.
90 NEWARK NORMAL SCHOOL.
The sleeping- rooms, both single and double, are
equipped with comfortable and attractive furniture.
Each student has a single iron bedstead and excellent
mattress, a chiffonier, a desk, a commode, an easy
chair and a straight chair. Each student has a sepa-
rate closet for clothing.
The equipment of both school and dormitory is of
the latest and best. The ample grounds have been
graded and beautified by walks, drives and by the
planting of many evergreens and shrubs.
Four tennis courts, a large athletic field called "The
Bowl," a school garden of two acres and an extensive
grove of fine trees sheltering a numerous bird life,
give opportunity for outdoor games, athletic contests,
field gymnastics, horticulture, kitchen garden, geog-
raphy and nature study such as few institutions can
offer.
The Montclair State Normal School opened for its
first session September 15th, 1908, with an attendance
of 187 pupils. Its present enrollment is 655. In the
past six years, it has graduated 969 teachers. The
principal is Dr. Charles S. Chapin, who has been at
the head of the school since July 1st, 1908.
THE NEW JERSEY STATE NORMAL SCHOOIi
at Newark.
The new State School building is cer.trally located
between Broad street and Belleville avenue, at the
Intersection of Fourth avenue, and occupies, including
Its spacious grounds, an entire city block. The archi-
tecture of the building is dignified as well as pictur-
esque and is enhanced by the sunken garden, masses
of bloom and hedges. The interior has been greatly
admired for the beauty of its color scheme, its fine
appointments and educational features. The building'
Is equipped with an auditorium, gymnasium, labora-
tories, manual training shops, sewing rooms, art
rooms and spacious, well-ventilated class rooms for
normal work. Special features are the demonstration
rooms with raised seats, lecture rooms, conference
rooms, a fine library, study halls and a splendidly
equipped kitchen and dining room. The building- also
has a modern system of heating, lighting and ventil-
ating and excellent sanitary conditions.
STATE HOME FOR BOYS. 91
This new building opened its doors under State con-
trol September 16th, 1913, with an enrollment of 450
students and a waiting' list. It may be of interest to
note that the school is so centrally located that only
two students requested boarding places in the city of
Newark. The trolley and railroad facilitie3 are such
that they can readily come and return to their homes.
A dozen prominent high schools are within forty
minutes of the school.
A large practice school is connected with the Nor-
mal where students are trained under actual school
conditions and the aim is to graduate an efficient
corps of teachers for the public schools of the State.
The Principal of the new State School is W. Spader
Willis, who for fourteen years was Principal of the
City Normal School at Newark.
THE STATE HOME FOR BOYS.
"The New Jersey State Reform School" was estab-
lished by act of the Legislature approved April 6th, 1865.
A farm of 490 acres was purchased for the purpose near
Jamesburg, Middlesex county.
The first boy was received July 6th, 1867. Its first Sup-
erintendent was Rev. Luther H. Sheldon, who was In
office from April 10th, 1867, till April 1st, 1874, and was
succeeded by James H. Eastman, who was Superinten-
dent from April 1st, 1874, till September 15th, 1884. Upon
his withdrawal Ira Otterson was made acting Superin-
tendent, and on December 10th, 1884, he was elected Sup-
erintendent. In 1902 Mr. Otterson was succeeded by John
Wildes who, March 1, 1904, gave way to John C. Kalleen.
In 1900 the name of The Reform School was changed to
the State Home for Boys.
Since founding the school, beside the Administration
building, there have been erected on the campus eight
family buildings (two of them double buildings), capa-
ble of accommodating fifty boys each, a chapel, hos-
pital, store and cook house. Industrial building, elec-
tric light, heat and power, generating station and
farm buildings, conservatory, up-to-date cow barn,
piggery, all of brick, many of the buildings con-
structed with bricks manufactured by the boys on
the place.
Besides domestic and farm labor, all boys are Instruct-
ed In the rudiments of an English school education, and
92 STATE HOME FOR GIRLS.
many receive Instruction In shorthand and typewrit-
ing and In the different mechanical branches and
band music.
In 1900 there was erected by boys' labor, under regular
Instructors, a building 40 by 100 feet, two stories high. In
which are established schools for trade teaching. In
1910, In this building, a complete outfit of machinery
consisting of a planer, mortlser, universal and band
saw, and others necessary to make it complete was
supplied. While In the past, so far as the accommoda-
tions would permit, a number of boys have received
instruction In mechanical trades, and with the accom-
modations furnished In the new building, a greater
number of boys receive a more thorough knowledge
in lines of skilled handicraft, which will the better
prepare them to become good citizens.
During 1910 the cow and dairy barn have been re-
modeled and rebuilt, and the Legislature of 1910 appro-
priated $40,000 with which to erect a central school
building. The Legislature of 1912 appropriated
$40,000 for the erection of a double cottage.
state: HOME2 FOR GIRLS.
This Institution Is located on the line of the Trenton
Branch of the Philadelphia and Reading Railroad, In
the City of Trenton, near the Trenton State Hospital, and
is located on a farm of about 79 acres of land. A sub-
stantial building was erected at a cost of $23,334, and
other improvements since made bring the value of the
place, with furniture, &c., up to $186,622. The value
of the land is $16,700. Previous to the erection of
the new building, the school was at "Pine Grove,"
In the Sixth Ward of the city of Trenton. This place
had been leased so as to afford room for persons sen-
tenced under the act of April 4th, 1871, and a subsequent
act. The Legislature of 1900 appropriated $30,000 for the
erection of an additional building. In 1900 and 1901 about
$31,000 was spent for Improvements and the Legislature
of 1905 appropriated $36,000 for the erection of a new
cottage and about $9,000 for various other improve-
ments. On February 11th, 1910, a new administration
building, named the "Fort Cottage," was formally
opened. It Is the counterpart of Washington's head-
quarters at Morristown, N. J., and had served as New
Jersey headquarters at the Jamestown, Virginia, Ex-
position. It Is most elaborately furnished with every-

thing suggestive of the colonial period. A new cot-
tage costing $25,000 was erected in 1911 and 1912 to
house twenty-five little girls. The Legislature of
1912 appropriated $16,700 for the erection of an in-
firmary and barn.
The institution is for girls between the ages of ten
and nineteen years who may be committed to it by
the courts.
THE STATE PRISON.
The New Jersey State Prison, situated on the block en-
closed by Federal, Third, Cass and Second streets, in the
city of Trenton, is one of the finest Institutions of Its
kind in the country. Its erection was authorized by an
act of the Legislature passed February 13th, 1832, and it
was completed in the year 1836, having 150 cells, at a cost
of $179,657,11. It was built of red sand-stone, from the
Ewing quarries, and the style of its architecture is Egryp-
tian, having four Egyptian columns in front of the main
entrance, on Third street. It consists of a main building,
used as a residence for the Keeper and as reception
rooms and offices. From time to time the prison has been
enlarged, and although there is not sufficient room to
afford separate confinement for each prisoner, as requir-
ed by law, the provisions of the act are carried out as far
as possible. The rules and regulations now in force have
brought the internal affairs of the institution, as to clean-
liness, discipline, victualing, &c., to a much higher stand-
ard than was ever before reached, and a visit thereto will
convince the visitor that the management is as perfect
as can be.
Previous to the year 1798 there was no State Prison,
and prisoners were confined in the county jails. On
March 1st, 1797, Jonathan Dcane was appointed by an act
of the Legislature as an agent to purchase a lot of land
from Peter Hunt, situate at Lamberton, containing six
and a half acres, and to erect suitable buildings thereon.
This was done at an expense of £9.842 Os. 3d., and what is
now the State Arsenal, at Second and Cass streets, is
the result. Solitary confinement was not practiced pre-
vious to 1836, in which year the old prison was vacated
and the present one occupied.
On March 4th, 1847, $5,000 was appropriated to build an
additional wing to the original building. On March 25th,
1852, $15,000 was granted for the erection of a new wing
for hospital purposes. On March 22d, 1860, the sum of
$17,000 was voted for the purpose of building an additional
94 THE STATE PRISON.
wing for cells, and on February 16th, 1861, a further sum
of $2,243.01 was appropriated to complete the same. On
April 16th, 1868, $6,000 was appropriated for the building of
an additional wing to provide room for female convicts.
An act passed April 2d, 1869, provided for the appoint-
ment of commissioners to extend the grounds of the
prison to the wall of the State Arsenal, to build an ad-
ditional wing and workshops, and made an appropriation
of $50,000 for that purpose, and in the same month $9,734
was appropriated for the purpose of completing the wing
of the female department. On April 4th, 1871, the sum
of $75,000 was appropriated for the purpose of completing
the new or east wing, and on April 4th. 1872, a further
sum of $28,700 was appropriated for the completion of the
same. March 3d, 1874, $12,000 was voted for the con-
struction of gas works for the supply of Illuminating gaa
for the prison. On March 8th, 1877, the sum of $100,000
was appropriated for the enlargement of the prison and
the purchase of a burial ground for deceased convicts.
The north wing was remodeled out of this last appro-
priation and a burial ground purchased. The Legislature
of 1895 appropriated $150,000 for the enlargement and im-
provement of the prison. The Legislature of 1899 appro-
priated $14,000 for alterations In the women's wing of the
prison. In 1905 $250,000 was appropriated for the erection
of a new wing, and It was finished in 1907. The addi-
tion, which Is at the northeast corner of the Institu-
tion, Is one of the most complete In the United States.
There are five tiers, each having seventy cells. The
interior is wholly of steel and concrete. The cells are
separated from the outer walls by a passageway for
the keepers and the entire section of each tier Is com-
pletely enclosed In a cage of steel. Thirty-five cells
are controlled by a combination locking device, al-
though any one cell door or a series of doors can be
thrown open by a lever system from the end of the
corridor where the locking device is located. Between
the cell sections there is a narrow utility court from
which the ventilation Is controlled and where the sani-
tary parts can be reached without any necessity for
going into the cells. Each cell has a steel cot, porce-
lain washstand and sanitary arrangement and Is light-
ed by electricity. Special attention has been given to
ventilation. A death house was also built on the prison
grounds in 1907 to comply with the law regarding the
electrocution of persons condemned to death.
HOME FOR DISABLED SOLDIERS. 95
THE NEAV JERSEY HOME FOR DISABLED
SOLDIERS.
This Institution Is located In Kearny, Hudson county.
It originated In the mind of Governor Marcus L. Ward
Just before the close of the Civil War. His petition to
the Legislatures of 1863-64 resulted in the passage of an
act on April 12lh, 1864, appointing himself, ex-Governors
Daniel Haines, William A. Newell and Charles S. Olden,
and Edwin A. Stevens and Rynear H. Veghte as com-
missioners to examine into and report on the subject. On
February 1, 1865, they made their report to Governor
Parker and the Legislature appropriated $50,000 for the
desired purpose. Grounds were purchased in the city of
Newark and in March, 1866, the same commissioners were
appointed managers of the Home. The board appointed
Colonel A. N. Dougherty, Commandant; Rev. Samuel T.
Moore, Superintendent and Chaplain, and Dr. A. M. Mills,
Surgeon, of the Home. It was opened for reception on
July 4th, 1866. For twenty-two years the Home remained
In Newark, when a new site was selected in Kearny. This
comprises about sixteen acres and $225,000 was appro-
priated for the buildings, furnishings, «S;c. On October
4th, 1888, the old home was vacated and the new home
occupied. The New Jersey Home Is the parent of similar
Institutions throughout the country. In order to gain ad-
mission to the Home the applicant must have served in
the army, navy or marine service and been honorably
discharged therefrom. He must have lived In the State
for at least two years next preceding date of applica-
tion, or have served in a New Jersey organization,
and must be unable to earn a living for himself by man-
ual labor. Since 1888 various additions have been
made.

This Home was organized In 1898, the sum of $5,000 ha-
Ing been appropriated for the purpose. A plot of ground,
comprising 20 acres, and a building containing about 75
rooms and basement, situated in the town of Vlneland,
were purchased for a Home, and in 1899 an additional
appropriation of $21,500 was made to pay for the prop-

priated for altering:, repairing and furnishing the build-
ings. In 1900 a special appropriation of 113.000 was made
for new floors, porches, laundry machinery, engine and
boiler and furniture. The Home was opened In Decem-
ber, 1899, for the admission of inmates and the first were
admitted January 2d. 1900. In 1901 the sum of $7,700 was
appropriated for an elevator, alterations and appliances,
making the cost of building and land 167,200. In 1903 nine
acres of additional land was purchased at a cost of J2,000
and the same year an act was passed by the Legislature
providing for the care and maintenance of widows of vet-
erns, and the sum of $28,000 was appropriated for the con-
struction and furnishing of buildings necessary to carry
out the provisions of the act. An additional sum of J2,500
was appropriated for extra work and the building was
completed and ready for occupancy in July, 1904.
Since then two new wings, each eighty feet long and
containing some 120 rooms, have been added, and a
separate boiler house In the rear of the main build-
ings erected. A new heating and lighting plant has
been Installed, and other marked improvements for
the care and comforts of the inmates completed. In
1912 the Legislature appropriated $30,000 for a new
hospital.
SCHOOL FOR THE DEAF.
This Institution, which Is located at Trenton, Is a part
of the public school system of the State, and Is open to
deaf residents of the State between the ages of six and
twenty-one years. The pupils are Instructed In the
branches of common-school education, and are also train-
ed In some handicraft. Speech Is taught to all who can
acquire it, and with such success that In some classes It
becomes the principal means of communication.
The Industrial department Is larger and better equip-
ped than In most schools of this kind. From the printing
office Is Issued monthly a paper, the Silent Worker,
which, in point of mechanical execution and of quality
of contents, ranks as the best Issued from any Institution
In the country. All the work on this paper Is performed
by pupils of the school.
The wood-working department, under the charge of a
graduate of a technical school of high rank, has a course
In which theory and practice are united In an unusual de-
gree.
A course of kindergarten work, especially adapted to
the deaf child, has been worked out In the school, and

has been followed by some of the best schools of the kind
in this country.
A building for hospital purposes, designed In accord-
ance with the best modern practice and ample to meet
any possible need, was opened in 1899.
The attendance of pupils has risen from 125 in June,
1896, until at the present time it is about 180.
The school possesses a well chosen library, which at
present contains about 4,000 volumes, and la rapidly
growing.

MINDED WOMEN.
Vineland.
This Institution was established by virtue of the act of
March 27th, 1888, the late S. Olin Garrison, who drafted
the original law, being its first superintendent. On No-
vember 7th, of the same year, he was succeeded by Mary
J. Dunlap, M.D., and then by Dr. Madeleine A. Hallo-
well. Upon organization of the first board of mana-
gers, the late Hon. Alexander G. Catell, of Camden
county, was chosen President, a place he acceptably
filled until his death. He was succeeded by the Hon.
Benjamin F. Lee, of Mercer county, Clerk of the Su-
preme Court, who occupied the position until his
death in 1909. Mrs. Emily E. H. Williamson, of
Union county, was secretary of the board from Its
organization until her death in 1909. The first
treasurer was the Hon. Belmont Perry, of Gloucester
county, he being succeeded by ex-Senator Philip P.
Baker, of Cumberland county; the late Senator Barton
F. Thorn, of Burlington county, and George B. Thorn,
Esq., of Burlington county, the present incumbent.
Harry H. Pond was elected President in 1909.
As Its official title suggests, this institution has for Its
object the care and training of feeble minded women.
Its location in a peculiarly healthful and fertile portion
of the State, the plan and scope of the buildings, as well
as their equipment and the employment of modem ad-
ministrative methods, make the Home a subject for fav-
orable comparison with any similar Institution In the
country. The property consists of about 50 acres.
The most conspicuous building of the Home Is that de-
voted to purposes of administration and Instruction, In-
cluding dormitories and a gymnasium. There Is also a

laundry, a power-house, ■with heating apparatus, and
pump for raising the sewage of the home Into the Vine-
land system. Fire escapes and a water tower give pro-
tection to the State's wards. All the buildings are light-
ed with gas or electricity.
In 1912 the Legislature appropriated $60,000 for a
new dormitory, &c.
TRAINING SCHOOL FOR FEEBLE-MINDED
CHILDREN.
Vineland.
This public institution Is an outgrowth of a private one,
which Prof. S. Olin Garrison established in Mlllvllle, Cum-
berland county, on September 1st, 1887. It was opened at
Vineland, on March 1st, 1888, with an enrollment of ten
pupils. Adjacent properties were soon acquired and a
handsome building, costing about $18,000, was erected in
1890-91. There are fourteen cottages, besides a hospital,
large barns, shops and manual training rooms, located
on a farm of 260 acres. The school has a fine assem-
bly hall, seating over 600, and also containing seven
school rooms, drill room and a gymnasium. The De-
partment of Research has a well equipped laboratory,
where studies as to the cause and prevention of feeble-
mindedness are carried on.
The plan and scope of training and education by the
school, require fourteen teachers in English, Kindergar-
ten, Music, Physical Culture and Manual Trades depart-
ments, thereby Indicating the special and comprehensive
fields of instruction. There is also a custodial depart-
ment for the idiotic.
The property is woilh over $250,000, real and personal,
with a debt of only $21,000. Besides very good prop-
erty acquisitions at low cost, at least $150,000 have
been donated to the school since Its organization, to
aid in the current expenses, in improvements and new
buildings.
STATE VILLAGE FOR EPILEPTICS.
(Henry M. Weeks Hospital.)
Sklllman, Somerset County.
This village is located in Montgomery township, Somer-
set county, at Sklllman Station, on the line of the
Philadelphia and Reading Railroad. The location Is
one of the most beautiful and healthful in the State,
STATE VILLAGE FOR EPILEPTICS. 99
and Is admirably adapted for the purposes of this
kind of an institution. The managers have secured
four adjoining farms containing in all about seven
hundred and eighty acres.
The four farm houses are now being used, one for
the Administration building, one for residence of the
Superintendent, one for patients and one for employes.
In 1884 Dr. John W. Ward, Superintendent of the State
Hospital at Trenton, realizing the necessity of separating
the epileptics from the Insane, went before a legislative
committee and strongly urged the appropriation of $50,-
000 to erect a building upon the grounds of that institu-
tion for the proper care of the epileptics. The late Prof.
S. Olln Garrison, Principal of the New Jersey Training
School for Feeble-MInded Children, at VIneland, early re-
cognized the necessity of separate provision for the epi-
leptics in that Institution, and was Indefatigable in hia
efforts to establish the present village.
For a number of years the subject was agitated, and
In 1895, In accordance with a resolution passed by the
Legislature, the Governor appointed a commission to In-
vestigate the number and condition of epileptics in the
State. The report of the commission was presented to
the Legislature of 1896 and a bill was Introduced for the
establishment of a colony on a plan recommended by the
commission. The bill falling to become a law, the New
Jersey State Medical Society, by resolution at their an-
nual meeting In 1896, endorsed the necessity of such
legislation. In 1897 the President, Dr. Thomas J. Smith,
of Bridgeton, most ably presented the necessity of pro-
viding for the epileptics, and urged that the State author-
ities be importuned most earnestly to revive the move-
ment Initiated the year before to establish an Industrial
epileptic colony In our State. The Society reaffirmed Its
position, and appointed a committee to urge the matter
further.
Through- the combined efforts of those Interested and
with the zealous co-operation of Senator Stokes, of Cum-
berland, who had charge of the legislation, an act was
passed by the Legislature of 1898, and promptly signed by
Acting Governor Voorhees, making the necessary provi-
sions for the establishment of the institution. The sum
of 515,000 was appropriated for the purchase of a site and
to pay for the equipment and maintenance of the vil-
lage. The "Maplewood Farm," containing about 187
acres, was purchased for $11,500, and the village waa

opened for the reception of male patients November lat,
of the same year.
The Legislature of 1900 appropriated $30,000 for the erec-
tion of two cottages for patients, and $16,000 for the pur-
chase of two farms adjoining the property. Additional
appropriations were made each year from 1901 to 1911,
aggregating $900,000, for extensions and Improve-
ments. All epileptics of either sex, over five years of
age, and not insane or Idiotic are admitted.
In 1912 the Legislature appropriated $78,000 for new
buildings.
NEW JERSEY REFORMATORY.
Rahway.
In 1895 the Legislature passed an act, approved by
Governor Werts on March 28 of that year, providing
for the appointment of a commission to consist of
six persons, who were charged with the duty of build-
ing an Intermediate reformatory Institution for first
male offenders. The commission was authorized to
set apart the property known as the Edgar farm,
located In Union and Middlesex Counties, and then
belonging to the State Sinking Fund.
If It were found necessary they were authorized to
purchase adjoining property for the completion of
the site at a cost not to exceed ten thousand dollars,
but this authority was not used.
The institution, when completed, was designed to
accommodate not less than one thousand inmates,
and the sum of one hundred thousand dollars was ap-
propriated to begin the work.
The site now comprises about 115 acres. That
which Is not occupied by the buildings or enclosed
within a stockade surrounding the same, furnishes
occupation to the Inmates, and Is devoted to the pur-
pose of tillage, to supply farm products and sustain
the animals used by the institution.
The original Commissioners were Patrick Farrelly,
George S. Mott, David M. Chambers, William A. Ure.
John T. Daly and Thomas M. Gopsill.
According to the plans originally adopted the build-
ing, when completed, was to have four wings, capable
of accommodating 1,024 Inmates. The first wing and
centre were completed In the year 1901, and Inmates
were then first received.
NEW JERSEY REFORMATORY. 101
First male offenders only are admitted between the
ages of sixteen and thirty years.
The criminal courts of the State are empowered In
their discretion to commit offenders to the Reforma-
tory instead of State Prison. The original commission
was replaced by the present Board of Commissioners,
consisting of nine persons, including the Governor,
and no more than four to be of the same political
party.
The reformatory and grounds are located about one
and a half miles south of the City of Rahway. The
buildings now erected comprise the guard-room build-
ing, northeast and southeast wings, the domestic
building and "Tie-to" building, connecting It with the
guard-room building, the Industrial building, new
tuberculous pavilion, independent water system with
filtering plant, two trades' school buildings and wall,
power house, hospital for contagious diseases, barn,
hennery, piggery, shelter station and cold storage
warehouse.
The "Tie-to" building, the hospital, the pavilion,
barn, hennfery, piggery, shelter station and cold stor-
age warehouse were constructed entirely by the In-
mates and without cost to the State, except for mate-
rial.
The construction of a sewage disposal system con-
tracted for by the former Board of Managers, has
been completed recently by Inmate labor.
The Inmates are detailed to different trade classes,
and do all the work required for betterments and
repairs. They enjoy daily educational advantages and
are regularly drilled In military tactics.
STATE TUBERCULOUS SANITARIUM.
Glen Gardner.
This Sanitarium, which was completed In 1907, is lo-
cated at Glen Gardner, near High Bridge, Hunterdon
county. The site is on the slope of a mountain nearly
1,000 feet above the level of the sea, where the State
has acquired about 600 acres. The slope has been cut
away and leveled for a considerable space, and here
the buildings were constructed. On a clear day the
view from this point Is one of the most magnificent In
this picturesque section of North New Jersey. It looks

away over a rolling country of wooded hills and culti-
vated farm lands to the mountains on the other side of
the valley, which run at its foot. Away in the dis-
tance like a thin ribbon of silver is the South Branch
river, and in whatever direction the eye turns some
new and charming scene is encountered. The structure
consists of a service building-, administration building
and east and west wards. The service building is the
source of supplies for the institution. It is 84x110 feet,
three stories, Including basement, in which is the
boiler room, engine room and electric light plant. A
cold storage Is located in the basement. On the second
floor is the main dining hall, whlctj is 84x48 feet, the
service room, bakery, kitchen, storeroom, butcher shop
and cold storage. The third flood is fitted up with
rooms for the doctors, employees' rooms, ironing, dry-
ing and linen rooms, coat rooms, sterilizing room, &c.
All the buildings are built of field stone, stuccoed on
the outside and finished with white plaster on the In-
terior. The ward building is 32x150 feet and the ad-
ministration building 52x120 feet. The buildings are
so constructed that additions may be made from time
to time as the necessity of the case demands. About
175 patients can be comfortably accommodated in the
ward buildings. The water supply Is derived from a
large reservoir which Is kept supplied from the springs.
The system of sewerage Is among the most sanitary
In existence. The total cost of the Sanitarium repre-
sents an outlay of about $300,000.
The first impetus for caring for tha State's consump-
tive poor was given In an address delivered In 1900 be-
fore the State Medical Society by Dr. Halsey, then
president. A bill was drawn by a committee of the
society, and was passed by the Legislature In 1902,
when a Board of Managers was appointed by Governor
Murphy. Of this Board, Dr. Charles J. Klpp of Newark
was elected president, and for whom the mountain on
which the State Sanitarium was built was named. The
Legislature appropriated $50,000 to carry the bill Into
effect. The Sanitarium Is Intended as a model Institu-
tion, largely educational In character, which would
give a practical demonstration of up-to-date methods
of treating cases of tuberculosis and point the way for
other Institutions of a similar type, at the same time
extending the direct benefits of Its system to as large a
number of cases as Its necessarily limited facilities

would enable It to care for. The institution handles
about six hundred cases annually. Its purpose is
to arrest the disease in its Incipient stage and dis-
charge the patient In such condition that, with the
aid of the instruction he receives while at the institu-
tion, he may be reasonably certain of being able to ef-
fect his own cure. This Instruction will prove valuable
not only to himself, but to the public In general, as it
becomes disseminated through his agency and that of
the other patients who undergo treatment and go out
again In the world at large. As a rule, the cases se-
lected will be such as can be treated with reasonable
expectancy of a cure. In 1912 the Legislature appro-
priated $89,500 for new buildings.
BORDENTOWN INDUSTRIAL. SCHOOL..
The Manual Training and Industrial School for Col-
ored Youth located at Bordentown, N. J., is a State
Institution maintained by appropriations from the
State and under the supervision of the State Board of
Education.
The school was established to meet the educational
needs of the colored people of New Jersey and seeks
more and more to fit its students to go out and do
intelligently the work to which they are called.
The Literary Department as far as is practicable Is
adjusted to the needs of the Industrial Training, and
an effort Is made to throw around the student a home
atmosphere.
The school occupies a conspicuous site on the banks
of the Delaware River, comprising 225 acres of good
farm land. The physical equipment of the school
consists of an administration building, a girls' dormi-
tory, a boys' dormitory and infirmary, a laundry and
carpenter shop, a printing oflEice and a group of farm
buildings.
Approximately one hundred students are enrolled,
this number exhausting the facilities for accommoda-
tion.
Tuition Is free and a nominal charge is made for
board, washing, medical attendance and registration.
In 1912 the Legislature appropriated $20,000 for a
new dormitory.
104 STATE REFORMATORY FOR WOMEN.
STATE REFORMATORY FOR WOMEN
at Clinton.
The Reformatory is located on a farm of 346 acres,
one and one-half miles from Clinton. It was dedicated
on May 26th, 1913.
There are five buildings in use at this institution, as
follows: 1, Fielder Cottage, old farmhouse, enlarged to
accommodate 25 to 30 w^omen; 2, Homestead Cottage,
accommodates 10 to 12 women; 3, Stowe Cottage for
colored, accommodates 27 to 30 women; 4, Cottage for
help, accommodates utility man and family; 5, Chapel
of Good Shepherd, used as chapel and school. Nos. 1
and 2 are old farm buildings; No. 2 used to be used
by the utility man and family. The third old farm
house is so in bad repair that it cannot be used either
for inmates or officers. It is used to store farm equip-
ment in during the winter.
Officers: Fielder Cottage — 2, teacher, nurse; Home-
stead Cottage — 3, superintendent, farm manager, parole
officer and psychologist; Cottage for Help — 2, utility
man, farm laborer; Stowe Cottage — 4, colored matron,
colored teacher, dietitian, bookkeeper. The last two
officers simply live in Stowe Cottage; they do no work
there.
Superintendent, Miss May Caughey.

PARTY PLATFORMS.
DEMOCRATIC.
(Adopted at the State Convention held at Trenton, October
3d, 1916, and presided over by State Senator Henry Elijah
Ackerson, Jr., of Monmouth county.)
We, the members of the Democratic State Convention, held
October 3d, 1916, composed of delegates chosen by Demo-
cratic voters at open primaries, as provided by law, hereby
adopt the following preamble and platform, and pledge to
it the support of our candidates for Governor, the Senate,
and the General Assembly :
We unanimously urge the re-election of President Wood-
row Wilson. Amidst world war, devastation and reaction he
has kept America unentangled for the reconstruction which
must follow. He has maintained peace under terrible dif-
ficulties. He has achieved that peace, filled with prosperity
and opportunity, by methods so true to American tradition
that his opponents cannot or dare not suggest a substitute.
He has held at bay the force of militarism, empire and con-
quest, laid the foundations of lasting peace in Mexico on the
self-government of the Mexican people, and has proved to
the Republic of this hemisphere that a free people has the
courage and patience of friendship ; that the power of the
United States is not for sale, nor is it controlled by race
prejudice and national hatred.
Under his leadership the Democratic Congress shook itself
free of the lobby and the special interests, and carried into
practical effect constructive legislation, so comprehensive, so
sound, so good, that all fair-minded people are filled with ad-
miration.
We assert that the President's record would justify his
re-election at any time, and that his Republican opponent,
by his campaign of evasion and timidity, would deserve de-
feat at any time. These are. more than ordinary times, and
we appeal to the conscience of the voters to decide whether
they dare disorganize the Government now, reverse its policy,
and upset an administration which has carried the nation
peacefully and prosperously thus far through the greatest
war in history. We ask the voters whether a man tested
and enriched by experience should be displaced by a man
who was nominated without stating his views and who has
talked now for three months without explaining them.
168 PARTY PLATFORMS.
We commend to the people of the State of New Jersey
the administration of Governor James F. Fielder. The
splendid devotion to duty in the interests of the people
which has marked his administration in the office of Governor
has demonstrated the wisdom of their choice. We call at-
tention to the fact that under his administration laws have
been enacted increasing the revenue of the State by a fairly
graduated tax upon the estates of deceased persons ; local
revenues have been enhanced by a reasonable bank stock tax ;
modern methods in the care and employment of inmates of
our penal institutions have been established ; prompt and
effective measures were taken to stamp out the hoof and
mouth disease in cattle ; a simplified method for the con-
duct of proceedings in the Chancery Court has been adopted ;
the pure food laws strengthened ; cities were empowered to
conduct public markets ; a system of traffic regulations uni-
form throughout the State was devised ; the welfare of
women, children and operatives in workshops and factories
was safeguarded ; the Grade Crossing Law. which bears his
name, has been upheld by the courts after long litigation,
and will bring about the elimination of the death traps in
the State.
The Economy and Efficiency measures for which great im-
provement in State government was claimed, including a
reduction in cost of administration of upward of $100,000,
will not justify such claims. The bills recommended by the
Economy and Efficiency Commission were amended and al-
tered by the last Republican Legislature, and their enforce-
ment will, during the next fiscal year, cost the State an
increased expense of $90,000 over the preceding year, and
up to this time no efficiency in administration of the depart-
ments consolidated can be pointed out by their sponsors.
Our Democratic administration increased the State's reve-
nues to meet the needs of departments and institutions by
the enactment, in 1914, of the Direct Inheritance Tax Law.
This act added to the taxation on wealth owned by non-
residents in this State. The revenue from this source alone
amounts to $1,750,000 in hand and in bank in 1916
(ten months to date), as against $243,645.90 in 1911, an
increase of over $1,500,000.
We have established the closest supervision over State
expenditures by the enactment of the Requisition act in 1914.
By this law we have provided a method whereby the State's
business has been placed on a business footing. We have
made it possible for the State's financial officers to advise
PARTY PLATFORMS. 169
the people of the exact condition of the treasury. In 1915
there was a clear balance, over liabilities, of upwards of
$400,000. We shall show for 1916 a clear balance, over all
liabilities, of upwards of $2,000,000.
The so-called Budget act enacted in 1916 is merely a
development of the Requisition act of 1914. This is likewise
true of the Purchase act. The way for.both was cleared by
the Requisition act.
We have wiped out the floating indebtedness of the State
created by the vicious overdraft system which was nurtured
by the preceding Republican administrations. We have met
all of the State's obligations in full, unlike the Republican
administration, which, to show a large treasury balance,
deliberately deferred the payment of school moneys to the
counties when due ; we have prevented the imposition of a
State tax for current needs and expenses ; we shall present
the State government to the succeeding administration with
a large cash surplus instead of a deficiency of upwards of
$1,200,000 which was the situation under the last Republican
administration. This was accomplished notwithstanding in-
creased appropriations to many departments.
Republicans with full control of the Legislature in both
Houses made certain specific platform pledges which they
failed to put into execution. For example :
Assembly districts were promised, but this popular plan
was deliberately defeated at the dictation of the party bosses
in the legislative chambers.
The Republican Platform of a year ago, among other
promises, pledged its party to protect the labor interests of
the State, but the records show that not a single measure
in the interests of labor was passed by the last Legislature
controlled in both Houses by that party. Promises were
made that the '"Workmen's Compensation Law"' would be
strengthened, but notwithstanding the strenuous efforts of
the Democratic members of the Senate, bills intended for
that purpose were buried in committee and were never even
considered on the floor of that body. We favor a revision
of this law in the light of the experience of other States,
so that it may conform to the standard recently adopted in
the Federal legislation.
While we have to some extent simplified our municipal
governments, no substantial progress has been made toward
reassembling the executive powers of the State in the hands
of the Governor elected by the people and responsible to
them. This work must be done during the next three years.
170 PARTY PLATFORMS.
At present, two-thirds of the State's revenues are expended
by boards and commissions which are not directly responsible
to the Governor, which have overlapping terms, conflicting
duties, and necessarily do not co-ordinato with the Governor.
All executive power should be exercised by the executive as
the constitution directs, and he should be held responsible
for economy and effioiency.
For the protection of the child workers of the State we
propose passing a law defining the term factory as applied
to places where these children work, so that it will be im-
possible for children to carry on work in tenement houses.
This is rendered necessary by the stringent law of New
York along these lines which may cause the moving of such
work across the river. New Jersey children must be pro-
tected.
We re-afflrm the principle enunciated by the last Demo-
cratic Congress in Section 6 of the Clayton act, "That the
labor power of the human being is not a commodity or article
of commerce." Labor produces commodities but it is not a
commodity itself.
Therefore, we pledge the enactment of a law forbidding
the issuance of injunctions in labor disputes where no prop-
erty right is involved other than the property right claimed
in the labor power of the human being, and to establish the
principle of a jury trial in all injunction and contempt cases.
Our State and county roads have failed to meet the needs
of the day owing to the great and growing burden which
has been flung upon them by the invention and growing use
of heavy motor vehicles for transportation. They must all
be rebuilt on a better and more substantial basis, just as
the stCcim roads were some thirty years ago. and provision
must be made for their proper upkeep. Whether or not
this great work shall be begun under the Egan Road law,
passed last winter, is for the people to decide at the coming
referendum election, but that it must be started under some
comprehensive statute, and continued until wide and en-
during highways shall replace the inadequate passageway in
all parts of the State, admits of no doubt. No other problem
of equal importance with this confronts the people of New
Jersey. We pledge our candidates for Governor and the
Legislature to its solution.
We favor the early abolition of all toll roads and toll
bridges within the confines of this State and with adjoining
States, and pledge the Democratic Party to accomplish this
result.
PARTY PLATFORMS. 171
That an enormous sum of money was expended by can-
didates for nomination at the Republican primaries ttiis
Fall is apparent to everybody. Rumor, supported by evi-
dence that assailed the eye on every side, places this sum at
not less than $300,000, or more than two dollars for every
Republican vote polled. As none of this money was raised
by public subscription, it follows that most of it must have
come from private and secret sources, in violation of the
Corrupt Practices act of 1911, and it is reasonable to expect
that an attempt will be made to carry the election in No-
vember by similar means. We are in grave danger of a
return to the corrupt methods of a few years ago, before the
Democratic Party made fair elections possible, drove the
corruption out of politics, and established an era of popular
rule.
We heartily endorse the passage by a Democratic Congress
of the Tariff Commission act, which we believe will suc-
cessfully remove political considerations from future tariff
legislation.
Last winter repeated attacks were made upon the Geran
Election act by individual members of the Republican ma-
jority in the Legislature and by the majority caucuses.
Most of the bills to destroy sections of this great reform
law were beaten by the hostility of the Governor assisted by
the Democrats and a handful of independents in iL:^ House,
but it was evident to everyone that the determination to
pass them was merely postponed, not abandoned. Probably
arrangements for the necessary votes were made at the re-
cent debauched primaries. We pledge our candidates to the
preservation of the Geran act in all of its integrity, and a
continuance of rule by the people instead of rule by money
and privilege.
We favor a rigid enforcement of the Civil Service laws,
and their amendment in all cases where experience shows
them defective.
The development of the public schools of the State is a
matter of the highest civic importance. To this end we
favor :
The extension of agencies for industrial education, in-
cluding vocational and agricultural education ; enlarged fa-
cilities for the training of teachers, including a normal school
in the southern part of the State ; the improvement of the
country schools, and the institution of night schools and
other agencies.
Every citizen is ungrudging in his admiration of the splen-
172 PARTY PLATFORMS.
did record of our National Guard made in tlie performance
of tlieir duty. The readiness with which they responded to
the call of the country, and the fidelity with which they
endured hardships and made sacrifices attendant upon their
military service, endears them to the heart of every man
who loves his country. We favor legislation for the up-
building and strengthening of our State Militia and Naval
Reserve, and ample appropriations for their maintenance and
equipment and for their instruction at the State camps.
Feeling assured that the Democracy has deserved and won
the confidence of the people of New Jersey by its fidelity to
its platform pledges and its unswerving devotion to the in-
terests of the people of the State, we present our cause to
the electorate w^ith sincerity and candor, knowing full well
that the splendid record of achievements of our party will
meet with the support of fairminded citizens regardless of
party affiliations.
REPUBLICAN.
(Adopted at a State Convention held at Trenton, October
3d, 1916, and presided over by President of the Senate,
George W. F. Gaunt of Gloucester county.)
The Republican State Convention assembled this third day
of October, meets as a reunited party, with past differences-
forgotten and with a patriotic desire to see the country
saved from humiliation at home and abroad, and to help
restore it to its rightful place among the nations of the
earth.
We unreservedly endorse the platform adopted by the Na-
tional Republican Convention held at Chicago, and we pledge
our enthusiastic support to its nominees, Charles Evans
Hughes and Charles Warren Fairbanks.
The present war has demonstrated the wisdom of the Re-
publican doctrine that this nation should be independent
industrially as well as politically, and we affirm our belief
in the doctrine of a protective tariff as a means to that end.
The war abroad has afforded us a measure of protection
which will cease when peace is declared, and a protective
tariff must, therefore, be enacted to insure the wage earners
and manufacturers as well as all the people of this country
against the competition of the cheaply made products from
abroad that will flood our country at prices ruinous to the
Industries and enterprises of the nation. The Democratic
party cannot be trusted to legislate in the economic emer-
PARTY PLATFORMS. 173
gency that ^^iIl arise when Europe ceases to war with arms
and begins to war with her cheap productions against the
rest of the world. We, therefore, favor a tariff for America.
From a State standpoint, the issue of the campaign sur-
rounds a clearly defined demand on the part of all the people
of the State for the introduction of common sense business
principles in conducting the affairs of the State. This re-
lates to practically every department of the government,
and in brief, means the transforming of a political govern-
ment into a modern business organization. The cardinal
principle in bringing this about is a realization that the
Governor of the State should assume the responsibility of its
business management and the Legislature co-operating as a
board of directors, with the work of every department, board
and commission so co-ordinated that the business of the State
shall be conducted on modern lines and not with the loss of
efficiency heretofore prevailing.
As a part of this plan to transform the government of
the State into a business organization, the Republican Legis-
latures of the past two years have enacted: (1) Economy
and efficiency laws, which have consolidated and co-ordinated
various State commissions, boards and departments in the
interest of economy and efficiency; (2) the law creating a
central purchasing department, which will in its first year
of trial save to the taxpayers of the State $200,000 ; (3)
the budget system, which for the first time in the State's
history will enable the people to know in advance the items
of State expense, the reasons therefor, and give to the tax-
payers an opportunity to express their judgment upon the
merits of the expenditures proposed to be made before they
are authorized by the Legislature. In this connection we
may here call the attention of the people of New Jersey
to the fact that the above laws are the result of the active
leadership in the Senate of our candidate for Governor,
Walter E. Edge.
The pledges given to the people for the last two years by
the Republican Party to place the State on a firm financial
basis have been fulfilled, and we now show the gratifying
result of a clear balance of over one million dollars, whereas
two years ago we inherited from the Democratic Party a
treasury deficit of two million dollars. This policy of con-
fining expenditures within our income and keeping inviolate
the credit of the State, we firmly believe in and will continue
to uphold.
We pledge ourselves to enact such further laws as will
174 PARTY PLATFORMS.
make the Governor the actual business manager of the State.
To this end we believe there should be further consolidations
and co-ordinations of the State's activities so that the heads
of the various boards will become in effect a business cabinet,
which, under the leadership of the Governor, if given the
loyal support of the working heads, will enlarge and extend
the practical and economical carrying out of the business
of the State to the advantage of all the stockholders thereof.
We favor a more businesslike method of administering
our tax laws, to equalize valuations and assessments not only
as between individualSj but as between the taxing districts
of the State.
We believe that the training of teachers for the public
schools is a matter of great importance if our schools are
to reach the highest degree of efficiency. For this reason
we favor an increase in the facilities for the training of
teachers by means of State Normal Schools, additional schools
being provided as the finances of the State will warrant.
We also strongly recommend the extension of vocational,
industrial and agricultural education for the youth of the
State and favor all practicable means for the betterment of
the .rural schools.
We favor a scientific system of road-building, with proper
main highways, and with laterals reaching to the rural
sections, not abutting thereon, so that we may have a com-
plete network of good roads touching every point of our
State, and believe that the State should construct and con-
trol the main highways and a patrol system be inaugurated
to keep our roads In repair as a prevention against destruc-
tion and waste.
We believe that all property which is taxed shall bear its
fair share of taxation. This is the principle of equal taxa-
tion to which our party was committed in passing the rail-
road equal tax laws. The franchises of the telephone, tele-
graph, water, electric light and gas companies of this State
represent privileges which are extremely profitable.
These franchises are now subject to a tax at the rate
of two per cent, upon the gross receipts, which is less than
the tax upon other property. The trolley companies already
pay five per cent, upon the gross receipts. The reason that
exists for taxing trolley companies applies equally to other
public utilities. We, therefore, favor the enactment of a
law increasing from two to five per cent, the taxes upon
the gross receipts of telephones, telegraph, water, electric
light and gas companies. This would bring to the State or
PARTY PLATFORMS. 175
to the municipalities thereof nearly $1,000,000 a year in
additional taxes.
The fact that within a radius of seventy miles, with the
capital of our State as its center, lies the densest population
in the world, reveals the unequal market for New Jersey's
agricultural products and the opportunity for agricultural
development of our State. To this end, we recommend that
the new Department of Agriculture created by the last
Legislature be given sufficient sums of money to carry into
completion the plans that they have already worked out.
Through the Bureau of Lands, Crops and Markets we will
be able to bring the producer and the consumer closer to-
gether, thereby eliminating the great waste in the matter
of distribution of farm products.
The inland waterway development of the State, inaugu-
ated by the Republican Party, is a practical illustration of
the business wisdom of proper development of the harbors,
rivers and other waterways. We pledge ourselves to a con-
tinuation of this policy.
The Republican Party has always shown particular in-
terest in the humanitarian work of the State by providing
liberal appropriations for the proper care of the mental de-
fectives, insane, tuberculosis unfortunates and other de-
pendent wards, and we pledge ourselves to a continuance of
this enlightened and humane policy.
We pledge ourselves to the maintenance of the principle
of Civil Service and the maintenance of a merit system.
We welcome, as a part of our civic life, the activities of
those associations interested in better housing, improved
tenement conditions and sanitary and hygienic measures,
both in the home and in the municipality, and we pledge to
the good citizens active in the development of the social
M'elfare of our commonwealth, the executive and legislative
support of the State.
Under Republican initiative was passed the most efficient
code of labor laws ever formulated in the country, viz., a
workmen's compensation law and laws providing for the up-
to-date safety devices in machinery, proper hygienic con-
ditions of air, light and sanitation ; regulation of hours of
employment for women and children ; strict provision for
fire-escapes to guard the lives of those employed in work
shops and factories, and other means to preserve the health,
comfort and v,elfare of the industrial workers of our State.
Again, we call the attention of the people to the leadership
of our candidate for Governor in the enactment of these laws
176 PARTY PLATFORMS.
Wc pledge ourselves to still further progress in this care of
the toilers of our State, who, in proportion to population,
rank us second among all the States of the union.
A commission appointed last year, under the action of a
Republican Legislature, to investigate and report by bills
upon the question of home rule, will enable us to carry out
our pledged promise to the people of this State to give them
the largest measure of home rule possible under the Con-
stitution of our State, and which pledge we reaffirm.
We pledge ourselves to enact such just and practical laws
as shall adequately direct the procedure for the creation of,
and to provide time and means for the retirement of the
temporary obligations of our municipalities, and to throw
such safe-guards and supervision around our public finances,
that the welfare of the taxpayers shall be preserved ; and
all with the least possible disturbance of municipal financial
systems as at present constituted.
We pledge ourselves to the abolition of all toll bridges
and the completion of the Palisades Park, in keeping with
our obligations to our neighboring states.
A commission has been appointed upon the revision of our
corporation laws. We favor such changes as will simplify
our system, but will protect the investor against fraud and
dishonesty of management, through a proper system of pub-
licity. We believe in honest corporations and insist that
they can be so formulated as to preserve the highest ef-
ficiency, honesty and public good in corporate management
and control, M-ithout driving business from our state to the
injury of the taxpayers.
A commission was appointed to revise the general election
laws, and it will report at the next session of the Legislature.
We believe in a simplification of these acts, without in any-
wise impairing the safety or honesty of the ballot.
The Democratic Party has been tried and found wanting
in the State and in the Nation. The reunion of Republicans
and Progressives, working together for the common cause of
patriotism and good government, is an evidence of success
in November, and an assurance of happier and more satis-
factory conditions during the next four years.
SCHOOL LAW. 177
SYNOPSIS OF SCHOOL LAW.
The State Board of Education consists of eigbt members,
not more tlian one of whom shall reside in the same county,
and not more than four of whom shall belong io the same
political party. It has control of the State Normal Schools,
the School for the Deaf and the Manual Training and In-
dustrial School for Colored Youth. It confirms the appoint-
ment of the county superintendents of schools, decides ap-
peals from the decisions of the Commissioner of Education,
and makes rules for the granting of teachers' certificates and
for carrying into effect the school laws of the State. It
appoints an inspector of school buildings and an inspector
of accounts.
The Commissioner of Education is appointed by the gov-
ernor and confirmed by the Senate. He appo-nts the county
superintendents of schools, decides controversies that arise
under the school law ; may withhold the State school moneys
from any district for neglect or refusal to comply with the
provisions of the school law, and has general supervision of
the public schools. There are four assistant commissioners
appointed by the commissioner by the advice and consent of
the State Board of Education ; one acts as inspector of
secondary schools, another as inspector of elementary schools,
another as inspector of "industrial education, and another to
hear controversies and disputes arising under the school law.
There is a superintendent of schools for each county, ap-
pointed by the Commissioner of Education and confirmed by
the State Board of Education. The County Superintendent
apportions the school moneys among the districts in his
county, has general supervision of the schools and, in con-
nection with the local Board of Education, prescribes the
course of study to be pursued in the district, approves the
.necessity for transportation and the cost and method thereof.
Each municipality in the State constitutes a school dis-
trict, unless by a vote of the people two or more munici-
palities decide to unite and form one district. There are
two classes of school districts, cities forming one class and
all other municipalities the other, but a district in* either
class may, by a vote of the people, be transferred to the
other class. The members of the Board of Education in a
city school district are appointed by the ma^yor.
12
178 SCHOOL LAW.
In order to be eligible to membership in the Board of
Education, a person must be a citizen of the United States
and must have been a resident of the district for at least
three years immediately preceding his or her election or ap-
pointment and must be able to read and write. A city
school district may have a city ruperintendcnt, but until one
is appointed the County Superintendent has supervision of
the schools.
In each city school district there is a Board of School
Estimate, consisting of the mayor, two members of ^he body
having the power to make appropriations ifor city purposes,
and two members of the Board of Education. The Board
of Education presents its estimate of the amount of local
appropriation needed, and the Board of School Estimate
certifies to the body in the city having power to make appro-
priations, the amount to be raised for school purposes. The
amount so certified must be raised.
In districts other than cities the Boards of Education
consist of nine members each, elected by the people on the
third Tuesday in March. The term of oflSce begins the first
Monday in April. The qualifications for membership are
the same as in city school districts. The special district
school tax is voted either at the annual meeting or at a
special school meeting called by the Board of Education.
Bonds for school houses are authorized by the legal voters.
School bonds cannot be sold at private sale except to the
Trustees of the School Fund or Sinking Fund Commissioners
unless said Trustees or Commissioners have refused to buy
them. Bonds cannot be delivered to any purchaser other
than the Trustees of the School Fund except upon payment
of full purchase price. Women may vote at district meet-
ings on all questions except the election of members of the
Board of Education, which is prohibited by the Constitution.
Truant officers and janitors cannot be discharged or their
compensation decreased except for cause and after a hearing.
Funds for the support of schools come from the following
sources : First, from the income of the State School Fund.
The principal of this fund is derived almost entirely from
the sale and rental of lands under water belonging to the
State. The principal cannot be used for any purpose, and
the income can be used only for the support of public schools.
Second^fi^om State appropriation made by the Legislature to
reduce the State school tax. Third, from State school tax,
an amount which when added to the State appropriation
will make a sum equal to two and three-fourths mills on
SCHOOL LAW. 179
each dollar of the taxable property in the State. Fourth,
the railroad tax received by the State in excess of one-half
of one per cent, of the value of the railroad property. Fifth,
interest of surplus revenue, and sixth, local school tax.
The income from the school fund is apportioned among
the counties by the State Superintendent ol the basis of
the total days' attendance of pupils in the public schools.
The State appropriation is apportioned among the counties
by the State Comptroller on the basis of the ratables. Ninety
per cent, of the State school tax paid by each county is
returned to it, and the ten per cent, received from all the
counties forms the reserve fund, which is apportioned among
the counties in the discretion of the State Board of Educa-
tion. The railroad tax is apportioned on the ratables.
The County Superintendent apportions to each district $600
for the Superintendent or Supervising Principal, if there be
one ; $500 for each teacher in a special class for subnormal
children ; $400 for each Assistant Superintendent and Super-
visor, and for each permanent teacher employed in a high
school having a full four-years' course of study ; $300 for
each permanent teacher employed in a high school having
a full three-years' course of study ; $200 for each permanent
teacher employed in any kindergarten, primary or grammar
grade or in a high school having less than three years'
course of study ; $80 for each temporary teacher employed
more than four months ; $80 for each evening school teacher ;
$25 for each high school pupil for whom a tuition fee is
paid to another district ; $5 for each pupil below the high
school grade for whom such tuition fee is paid, and 75 per
cent, of the cost of transportation of pupils approved by
the County Superintendent. The balance of the State school
moneys received by the county is apportioned on the basis
of the total number of days' attendance of the pupils.
The custodian of municipal funds is the custodian of
school moneys, unless the Board of Education appoints the
collector as custodian. In either case, the compensation of
the custodian must be fixed by the Board of Education and
paid from school funds. If there are two or more munici-
palities in the district, the Board of Education may appoint
its own custodian.
Each collector must pay to the county collector the
amount of State school tax due from his taxing district not
later than December 22d. If the tax is not paid by that
date the County Superintendent must withhold the amount
of reserve fund apportioned to the district and divide it
180 SCHOOL LAW.
the following year among all the districts in the county.
The county collector must pay the State school tax to the
State Treasurer not later than January 20th.
If a district provides a course in manual training, and
such course is approved by the State Board of Education, the
State will give to such district each year a sum equal to that
raised in the district for manual training, provided the
amount raised is not less than !?250 or more than $5,000.
County vocational schools may be established in any
county under rules made by the State Board of Education,
The location of these schools shall be approved by the Com-
missioner of Education with the advice and consent of the
State Board of Education. The Board of Education for
such vocational school shall consist of the County Superin-
tendent and four person^ to be appointed by the judge of
the Court of Common Pleas in the county. The State
appropriates a sum equal to that raised in the county for
the establishment of such school. The amount contributed
by the State for any such school shall not exceed in any
one year the sum of $10,000.
Every district must provide free text-books and supplies
for all pupils and must also provide a flag for each school
house, which flag must be displayed every day the school is
in session. The selection- of a text-book requires the vote of
a majority of the whole number of members of the Board
of Education. A Board of Education must employ medical
inspectors and attendance oflBcers.
Every school which raises $20 to establish a school library
may receive a like amount from the State. After the first
payment, the State will give $10 each year that the school
raises the same amount. Library moneys may be used for
library books, reference books, apparatus, or educational
works of art.
All plans for school houses must be submitted to the State
Board of Education for suggestion and criticism. Every
school house hereafter erected must comply with the follow-
ing requirements : First, light must be admitted to the class
rooms only from the left and rear. Second, the total light
area must equal 20 per cent, of floor space. Third, there
must be 18 square feet of floor space and not less than 200
cubic feet of air space for each pupil. Fourth, all rooms
must have a proper system of ventilation which will supply
30 cubic feet of fresh air per minute for each pupil. Fifth,
all ceilings must be at least 12 feet in height and all stairs
must be at least 4 feet wide, with intermediate landings,
SCHOOL LAW. 181
enclosed in brick walls or by partitions of slow-burning con-
struction, and without open well holes. Sixth, a school
house having eight rooms must have two flights of stairs,
each four feet in width, or one flight not less than six feet
in width, one having from eight to sixteen rooms, two flights
of stairs not less than five feet in width, and one having
sixteen or more rooms, four flights of stairs not less than
four feet in width, or two flights not less than six feet in
width. Seventh, all ceilings must be either metal, wood or
plaster on metal laths and painted white or some light tint.
A person cannot be legally employed as a teacher unless
he holds a teacher's certificate in full force and effect at
the time he begins teaching. Before beginning to teach he
must show his certificate to the Superintendent of Schools.
A Board of Education may adopt rules governing the em-
ployment of teachers. In the absence of rules, the contract
must be in writing in triplicate, one copy filed with the
Board of Education, one with the County Superintendent,
and one with the teacher. The employment, promotion or
dismissal of a teacher requires the vote of a majority of the
whole number of members of the Board of Education. After
three years' continuous service a teacher cannot be removed
except upon charges and after a hearing.
All persons appointed as teachers, principals or superin-
tendents, who have not taught in this State prior to Jan-
uary 1st, 1908, are members of the Teachers' Retirement
Fund by virtue of such appointment.
A State pension is also provided for teachers who have
had thirty-five years of actual service ; twenty-five years of
such service must have been in New Jersey. The annual
pension provided is one-half the average annual salary re-
ceived for the last five years of service.
The State Board of Examiners consists of the Commis-
sioner of Education, the Principals of the Normal Schools
and a County Superintendent and a City Superintendent
appointed by the State Board of Education. This Board
issues certificates valid in all parts of this State and in any
school or grade.
All kindergarten teachers must hold special kindergarten
certificates. Special certificates may be issued for kinder-
garten, physical training, manual training, music, drawing,
modern languages, commercial branches, cooking, sewing,
agriculture and penmanship. All applicants for certificates
must file testimonials of good moral character, and, in case
of previous experience, of success as teachers.
182 SCHOOL LAW.
Graduates of the Normal Schools receive State certifi-
cates. Graduates Oif normal schools in other States may
have their diplomas endorsed, provided the course of study
pursued is equivalent to the course in the New Jersey Nor-
mal Schools, and the State in which they were issued grants
reciprocal privileges to graduates of the New Jersey Normal
Schools,
All children between the ages of 5 and 20 are entitled to
attend the public schools in the districts in which they
reside. If a kindergarten has been established, children
4 years of age may attend. A Board of Education must
provide suitable school facilities for all the children desiring
to attend school. The Board of Education may provide for
the education of pupils in the higher grades by payment of
tuition fees to adjoining districts. If a child lives remote
from any school in the district, the Board may transport
such child to school or pay for its tuition in another district.
A Board of Education may close a school and transport all
the children to another school. Children who have never
attended any school can be admitted to a public school
only during the ten days immediately following the opening
of the school in the fall and during the first five days in
January and April, except by the vote of a majority of all
the members of the Board of Education.
All children between the ages of 7 and 16 must attend
either a public or private school every day such school is in
session, unless they are taught at home or are physically
or mentally unfit to attend. Children between 14 and 16
years of age who have completed five yearly grades may be
granted certificates permitting them to go to work. The
parent of a chiid who does not attend school may be pro-
ceeded against before a magistrate as a disorderly person.
If the parent is unable to control the child, such child may
be proceeded against as a disorderly person.
Corporal punishment in all public schools is absolutely
prohibited.

BIOGRAPHIES
GOVERNOR OF NEW JERSEY.
WALTER EVANS EDGE.
Governor Edge was born in Philadelphia, Pennsyl-
vania, November 20th, 1873. Shortly afterward his
father moved to Pleasantville, New Jersey, a com-
munity located five miles from Atlantic City. There
the boy entered the public schools and graduated.
This was all the schoolroom education that he was
destined to receive, for stress of circumstances made
it necessary for him to forego a college course and
to earn a living.
With scarcely more than a dollar of capital, but
with an ambition which is characteristic, Walter Edge
started to earn money in the humble, but strenuous
post of "printer's devil" at the Atlantic Review, At-
lantic City's oldest newspaper. Later, at the age of
sixteen, he secured a position with the Borland Ad-
vertising Agency of Atlantic City. At the time this
was merely a local business, specializing in hotel ad-
vertising. Young Edge took such a keen interest in it
and displayed such aptitude that when the proprietor
died, about two years later, he purchased the business.
Given a free rein under his own management, Edge
aimed high. Plans for developing the business be-
yond Atlantic City, throughout the country and even
into Europe did not prove visionary. He started a
daily newspaper in Atlantic City and put into practice
a co-operative "advertising idea in which his news-
paper, his advertising agency and newspapers
thoughout the country participated. In a remarkably
short time Atlantic City and its famous hotels and
attractions became advertised from one end of the
earth to the other. All hotel men in Atlantic City
cheerfully testify to the part which Edge played in
giving the map its "greatest resort." The agency de-

veloped until its field became first national, handling
advertising north, south, east and west in the United
States, and then international, advertising outputs of
Europe. Edge opened ofi^ces in New York, London,
Paris, Berlin and elsewhere. His newspaper, ithe At-
lantic City Daily Press, progressed from a mere hotel
advertising medium to the leading news medium of
Atlantic City. In the meantime Edge purchased the
Atlantic City Evening Union and conducted it as the
afternoon edition of his morning publication. Later,
as the time which he devoted to private business be-
came wholly occupied with his growing international
advertising business and his activities in home bank-
ing and other institutions, he leased both newspapers
to a company, consisting of young men who had been
faithful in his employ, and he is not now in any
way connected with their management.
In politics, as in business, Walter Edge began as
an apprentice. In business life he started as an office
boy, with errands to run and floors to sweep; in
public life, as one of the minor employes of the New
Jersey Senate. In 1897, '98, '99 he served as Journal
Clerk of the Senate, and in 1901, '02, '03, '04 was Sec-
retary of that body. He acquired a taste for military
life from responding to the call of the country at the
outbreak of the war with Spain in 1898 and from his
activities in the Morris Guards an independent mili-
tary company of Atlantic City which mustered into
the service during the Spanish-American War as
Company F, Fourth New Jersey Volunteer Infantry.
Edge was commissioned second lieutenant of this com-
pany. Some years later he served as captain of Com-
pany L, Third Regiment, New Jersey National Guard.
He was a member of the personal staff of Governors
Murphy and Stokes and subsequently was Lieutenant-
Colonel and Chief of Ordnance Department on the
staff of Major-General C. Edward Murray, New Jersey
National Guard. In Atlantic City there is a Walter
E. Edge Garrison of the Army and Navy Union. Mr,
Edge is also the head of the Boy Scout movement in
Atlantic county.
In 1904, Colonel Edge was a presidential elector and
in 1908, an alternate delegate-at-large to the Republi-
can National Convention in Chicago. In 1909, he was
elected to the Assembly from Atlantic county by the
BIOGRAPHIES. 285
phenomenal plurality of 7,798 over Burgan, the Demo-
cratic candidate. Thus "phenomenal pluralities" were
not exactly new to Colonel Edge when he was elected
Governor in 1916 by a margin of 69,647 votes — 18,003
more than the largest plurality ever received by a
gubernatorial candidate in New Jersey.
Colonel Edge had the distinction of serving as Re-
publican leader of the House of Assembly during the
first year that he occupied a seat in that body. He
was elected to the State Senate in 1910 by a plurality
of 5,496 over Langham, Democrat. In 1912, he was
the majority leader on the floor of the Senate. In
1913, the Colonel was re-elected to the Senate by a
plurality of 3,990 over Shaner, Democrat. In 1915, he
served as President of the Senate with much dignity,
ability and impartiality. For five weeks in 1915 he
was Acting-Governor of the State while Governor
Fielder was attending the Panama-Pacific Exposition
in California, and this brief special "term" was
characterized by close application to the executive
duties.
It was during his service in the Senate, however,
that the Colonel carved his record for progressive
legislation and made possible his famous gubernatorial
slogan of "A Business Man With a Business Plan."
As inember of a research commission he studied con-
ditions and statutes which resulted in the framing of
the "Workmen's Compensation act, one of the first
practical-working laws of the kind in this country.
He fathered this bill in the legislature. Besides suc-
cessively completing the task of protecting working
women with a ten-hour law and securing legislation
safeguarding factory workers against dangerously-
constructed workshops and occupational diseases.
Senator Edge found time to serve as head of the
Economy and Efficiency Commission which initiated
legislation eliminating political commissions and con-
solidating various boards and departments of New
Jersey in the interest of economy and increased ef-
ficiency. These bills he personally sponsored and
fought through to final passage in the legislature
against bitter political opposition. Later on he in-
troduced the State Budget System Bill, aimed to sys-
tematize New Jersey's finances and make the Governor
the responsible head of the fiscal system. Another

act which he initiated, creating the Central Pur-
chasing Bureau, is designed to save money by pur-
chasing supplies for the State and its institutions on
a wholesale scale and following a fixed standard. It
was Senator Edge, too, who thought of legislation
abolishing the useless State Census, which had cost
$100,000.
With this comprehensive record for constructive
legislation at his back, Colonel Edge entered the race
for the office of Governor in 1916 on a platform of
"business government." His program consisted of a
pledge to apply ordinary business principles to the
thirty-million-dollar business of the State of New
Jersey. His outlined plan designated "the Governor
as the business manager, the legislature the board of
directors and the people the stockholders." The
stockholders approved the record and liked the plan.
Governor Edge "inherited" a taste for public life.
Two great uncles were members of the Pennsylvania
Legislature and another for years was Collector of
the Port of Philadelphia. His great grandfather was
a judge in the courts of Pennsylvania for forty years.
On June 5th, 1907, Governor Edge married Lady
Lee, only daughter of Mrs. Sarah Lee Phillips of
Memphis, Tennessee. She died suddenly in July, 1915,
leaving a robust baby boy, Walter Edge, Jr., who is
now the bright particular star of the Edge household.
The latter consists of Governor Edge, Mrs. Phillips
and the little boy. The Governor's father, William
Edge, a retired railroad man, and his foster mother
reside in Atlantic City.
Walter Evans Edge was nominated as a candidate
for Governor at the primary election held on Sep-
tember 26th, 1916, by a plurality of 3,611 over Austen
Colgate. At the regular State election held on No-
vember 7th, 1916, he was elected Governor over H.
Otto Wittpenn, Democrat, by a plurality of 69,647.
He was inaugurated on January 16th, 1917, for a term
of three years. His salary is $10,000 per annum.

linghuysen, an ofFicer in the war of 1812, was his
grandfather. Theodore Frelinghuysen, United States
Senator, Chancellor of the University of New York,
and candidate for Vice-President with Henry Clay on
the Whig- ticket, was a great uncle. His father,
Frederick John Frelinghuysen, was a prominent lawyer
and closely identified with the political and religious
life of Somerset county.
Senator Frelinghuysen's inclination for and ac-
tivity in public affairs is a natural heritage. Forced
by stress of circumstances to surrender his natural
inclination for a college education, he, after preparing
for college at the Somerville Grammar school, ob-
tained employment as clerk in a fire insurance office,
and has since that time built up a business in New
York City which is recognized as one of the foremost
general agencies in the country, representing nearly
a score of large and profitably conducted fire insurance
companies.
Senator Frelinghuysen served eight years in Troop
3, Squadron A Cavalry, New York, and rose to the
position of Second Lieutenant. At the outbreak of
the Spanish-American war he went to the front as
Second Lieutenant of the troop formed from that or-
ganization. For special services rendered in that
campaign he was recommended to the President by
Brigadier-General Guy V. Henry, his commanding of-
ficer, for promotion to Brevet First Lieutenant for
zealous and efficient services in Porto Rico.
He served several years as chairman of the Somerset
County Republican Executive Committee. In 1902, he
made his first campaign for political honors as a
candidate for State Senator and under the most ad-
verse conditions was defeated by Samuel S. Childs,
Democrat, by a small plurality. In 1905, he was
again nominated for the same position against the
same opponent, and was elected by a plurality of 1,056,
and in 1908, he was re-elected to the Senate, over
Colonel Nelson Y. Dungan, Democrat. During his ca-
reer as State Senator he has always taken a prominent
part in legislation. He was the father of the famous
Frelinghuysen Automobile law, generally recognized
as one of the most efficient enactments on the subject

yet passed in this country. He has also secured the
enactment of many acts of especial benefit to the
agricultural industry of the State. He was instru-
mental in having- the live stock commission created
and while serving on a special commission to investi-
gate the school system secured knowledge which he
later utilized in framing various bills for the thorough
re-organization of the school system. He was one of
the special committee who drafted the present Civil
Service law, and in 1909, he served as chairman of
the Special Committee on Finance, also other impor-
tant committees and in other years he held influential
assignments in the preparation of legislation.
He was party leader on the floor of the Senate in
1909, and upon the resignation of President Robbins
he was unanimously elected as his successor in the
chair. He was re-elected President of the Senate in
1910, During the absence of Governor Fort from the
State in those years, Senator Frelinghuysen, by vir-
tue of his position, served as Acting Governor.
He was chosen President of the State Board of
Agriculture in 1912, and still holds that position. Upon
the creation of the New State Board of Education in
1911, Governor Wilson appointed Mr. Frelinghuysen
a member of that body fo'r a term of two years, and
in 1913 he was given a full term of eight years. He
became President of the board in 1915.
Senator Frelinghuysen is active in social and
philanthropic enterprises; is a member of the New
York Chamber of Commerce; N. J. State Chamber of
Commerce; Down Town Association; Raritan Valley
Grange No. 153; the Union League Club, of New York;
of the Somerville Board of Trad'e; Solomon's Lodge

VACANCY.
Senator William W. Smalley died at his home in Bound
Brook, December 27, 1916, at the age of sixty-six years.
The NeivarJc Evening 'News, in reference to the sad oc-
currence, editorially said :
"No issue of importance to come before the Legislature
this winter will be affected by the death of Senator William
W. Smalley, yet the influence of the representative from
Somerset County will be greatly missed. A Republican, he
was about to enter the final year of his second term in the
Senate, he had served four terms in the Assembly, and his
whole record was clear.
"Everybody familiar with politics in New Jersey knew
where to find Mr. Smalley's name in any division on im-
portant measures. He was no blind follower of party bosses.
In fact, he was the leader in the Legislature on all matters
concerning appropriations during the past two sessions, when
he was chairman of the joint appropriations committee.
Democrats as well as Republicans followed his leadership
in state financial matters. He was a conservative man of
affairs, thoroughly competent, the best type of a business
man in state government rather than a politician. He never
acquired the title of 'watchdog of the treasury,' but he
lived up to that sobriquet, so frequently abused. He was a
recognized force for good at Trenton, a Christian gentleman,
in whose passing the state suffers a distinct loss."

Mr. Martin was born in Hartford, Conn., January
30th, 1868. He is a newspaper editor and publisher
by profession and for the past fifteen 3'ears he has
been the owner and editor of the Hudson Dispatch,
published at Union Hill, Hudson county. This paper
has grown from a local daily to one which now has
an extensive circulation' throughout the county of
Hudson and a State-wide influence.
Mr. Martin is a member of Palisade Council No.
483, Knig-hts of Columbus, the Cartaret Club of Jersey
City, and a charter member of the North Hudson
Board of Trade. His legislative career began in 1911.
He served in the House of Assembly that year, in
1912, and- again in 1913. He was again elected to
the House of 1915, when he was chosen as the leader
of the Democratic members on the floor.
Mr. Martin takes more gratification out of the re-
sult of his efforts in connection with the attempt to
enact Morris Canal legislation than any other bill
in the passage or defeat of which he played any part.
As the Democratic leader Mr. Martin vigorously op-
posed legislation that he thought would prove detri-
mental to the best interests of the State, and time
has justified the position taken by him.
When Governor Fielder was called upon to name
a new Secretary of State because of the death of
David S. Crater, the then secretary, Mr. Martin was
accorded a tribute such as has never before been ex-
tended to any man in this State. Every member of
the House of Assembly, of which he was a member,
waited upon the Governor, and regardless of their
politics, they asked for the naming of Mr. Martin to
the place. Governor Fielder named Mr. Martin as
Secretary of State, April 5th, 1915, for a term of five
years. The salary is $6,000 per year.

tion of the fidelity and professional skill exercised by
its Secretary and Engineer in the work of the Com-
mission.
"Mr. John C. Payne has been associated with the
work of the Riparian Commission for thirty years.
He associated himself in 1877 with the Hon. Robert C.
Bacot, the first engineer of the Commission, appointed
in 1864, and when Mr. Bacot, by reason of declining
years, retired in 1897 with honor and the respect of
the Commission and State, Mr. Payne succeeded him
as Secretary and Engineer, and has continued as such
until the present time; and the board takes pleasure
in testifying to Mr. Payne's fidelity to the work of
the Commission and to the interests of the State com-
mitted to its care."

hees in 1899, and by Governor Murphy in 1902, and

largely due to his efforts that the scientific study
of oj'ster propagation was taken up by Professor
Julius Nelson in 1900, and as there was no appro-
priation made by the Legislature for that purpose,
he furnished and maintained a suitable station for
experimental purposes, also oysters, boats, floats, etc.,

Mr. Nevin, who has been chief auditor of the State,
attached to the Comptroller's Department, since May
1st, 1913, was born in Summit, New Jersey, August
31st, 1871. He finished his preliminary education at
St. Peter's College, Jersey City, and after a post-
graduate course, became chief clerk and later private
secretary in the office of the Mayor of Jersey City,
where he remained from 1889 to 1897, having the pe-
culiar distinction of serving in that capacity for five
years under a Republican mayor, while always ac-
tively identified with the Democratic party of Hud-
son county.
In 1897 he was appointed police justice of Jersey
City, a position he held until May 1st, 1900. Later
Mr. Nevin became connected with the American Bond-
ing and Trust Company, of which he was the general
agent for a number of years in partnership with

night school, becoming enrolled as a student in the
commercial department of the Stewart Business Col-
lege. He passed with high honors.
Mr. Waldron's first position was as errand boy for
the Trenton Co-Operative Society, which managed a
large grocery and meat market. He was promoted a
year later to a clerkship and, finally, when the com-
pany decided to establish a branch store, Mr. Waldron
was the choice for manager. He made such a success
of the venture that, a couple of years later the so-
ciety concluded to open a second branch store. -Mr.
"Waldron was again the unanimous choice of the di-
rectors for the management of the newer place.
Twelve years ago, Mr. Waldron decided to go into
business for himself. He developed a business corner
that had for years been regarded as a hoodoo into one
of the most prosperous in Trenton. He sold out this
business when Governor Wilson unexpectedly named
him to the superintendency of weights and measures
August 23, 1911. Governor Wilson's attention is said
to have been attracted to Mr. Waldron because of his
splendid run for city commissioner in that year. He
not only figured among the ten highest men at the
primary but also came within a couple of hundred
votes of being elected a commissioner. This was re-
garded as a remarkable tribute to the personal pop-
ularity of a man who had never before figured in pub-
lic life, who had done little or no campaigning, and
who was the only one of the ten candidates on elec-
tion day that had never been previously able to attract
public attention through the occupancy of a public
offlce. His term of ofllce is five years and salary $2,500.
His term will expire March 12th, 1917.

there, and later went on the staff of the Norfolk
Virginian Pilot, after which he was editorial writer
for a time for the Lebanon (Penn.) Evening Report.
Since 1904 he has been editor of the Long Branch
Daily Record. He started booming Woodrow Wilson
for the Presidency on January 20th, 1908, and his

country. From 1907 to 1912 he was publicity director
of Long Branch, organizing the Publicity Bureau
there. He was twice elected by the city council, and
appointed by both Republican and Democratic mayors.
In 1908 he was appointed by Governor Fort on the

criminality, and was conspicuous in the work of that
body, many of whose recommendations have subse-
quently been enacted into law. He was first as-
sistant Supervisor of Bills in the New Jersey Senate
in 1913, and supervisor in 1914. He became editor of
the Trend Magazine, of New York, in 1913, which
place he resigned after his appointment by Governor
Fielder as Commissioner of Reports, and his unani-
mous confirmation by the Senate in February of 1914,
declining an election as president of the Trend Pub-
lishing Company.

TAXES AND ASSESSMENT, STATE BOARD OF.
(This board consists of the (former Board of Equalization of
Taxes and the State Board of Assessors.)
Lucius T. Russell, President, Elizabeth, 1918 ; George T.
Bouton, Jersey City, 1916 ; Frank B. Jess, Haddon Heights,
1917 ; Frederic A. Gentieu, Pennsgrove, 1917 ; Isaac Bar-
ber, Phillipsburg, 1918. Secretary, Frank D. Schroth ; Clerk
and Field Secretary, Frank A. O'Connor ; Engineer, Louis
Focht.
The State Board of Taxes and Assessment is a consoli-
dation of the old Board of Equalization of Taxes and the
State Board of Assessors. The new body was created under
the provisions of Chapter 244 of the Laws of 1915. It
organized July 1st, and the purpose of the merger was to
co-ordinate two bodies having similar functions.
The old State Board of Assessors was created under an
act of the Legislature entitled "An act for the taxation of
railroad and canal property," approved April 10th, 1884.
The work of this body was increased during the same year
by the passage of another act, entitled "An act to provide
for the Imposition of State taxes upon certain corporations,
and for the collection thereof," approved April 18th, 1884.
The Legislature further charged this board with the assess-
ment and apportionment of the Municipal Franchise tax
to be paid by persons, co-partnerships, associations or cor-
porations using or occupying public streets, highways, roads
or other public places, by an act passed in 1900 and taking
efifect January 1st, 1901.
The State Board of Equalization of Taxes was created by
an act of the Legislature approved March 29th, 1905, and
was designed to take the place of the old State Board of
Taxation.
The report of the State Board of Taxes and Assessment
for the year 1916 shows that 129 railroad and canal com-
panies within the State are subject to taxation. These
companies represent more than 2,400 miles of .railroads
and 175 miles of canals.
The following table is a summary of the valuation and
assessment of railroad and canal property for the year
1916 subject to review by the board, which review was
In progress when this article was prepared.

614 GOVERNOR FIELDER'S MESSAGE.
Third Annual Message of James F. Fielder,
Governor of New Jersey.
State op New Jersey,
Executive Department,
Trentox, January 9th, 1917.
To the Legislature:
In presenting this message, within a week of the close of
my term, I consider it only courteous and fair to my suc-
cessor to make no recommendations on new State policies
or legislation, but rather to leave him entirely free to
advise with you on such matters as he may wish to present
touching the management and conduct of the State. Dur-
ing my term of office I have from time to time communi-
cated to the Legislature my views concerning the condition
of the State, and I have recommended the enactment of
such measures as I believed expedient or proper. With
some of those recommendations the Legislature has agreed.
I have no wish to withdraw any of those on which no
action has been taken, or even to suggest any modification
therein. Rather would I refer you to them again for fur-
ther consideration.
The growth of the State has been steady, and its popu-
lation is now three millions. Its field of activity and oper-
ation has been greatly extended in recent years, and it did
a business, with gross receipts for the year ending October
.'Ust. 1016. of .$12,917,658.55. The work of its departments
is conducted upon a large and continually growing scale,
and the need for more department room is pressing, and
must soon be met by the erection of a new building for
offices, or to which the State courts can be moved and the
space they now occupy in the Capitol building given over
to other State departments.
We are giving more thought and attention to protection
by the State of the peTsonal rights and property interests
of the individual and to his security, comfort and hap-
piness, and to that end we have, in the last few years,
increased the scope of courts and departments already
established and have added new branches of government.
This is shown by the enactment of laws for the regulation
of public utilities ; the tenement house act ; the supervision
of weights and measures ; the children's guardian board ;
the widows' pension act ; the pure food and healtb statutes ;
the workmen's compensation act ; improved sanitary re-
quirements for bakeshops, factories and other work places,
GOVERNOR FIELDER'S MESSAGE. 615
and the safeguarding of life, limb and health of mechanics
and operatives under the supervision of the Labor Depart-
ment. In the care of the insane and defectives, and for
the restraint of the criminal, we have found it necessary
to acquii-e more land and to enlarge the institutions de-
voted to them, which includes the establishment of a new
colony for the feeble-minded, a new site for an insane
building or buildings, a new building for the criminal in-
sane in connection with the Trenton Hospital, and the
Women's Reformatory. As an illustration of the scale of
State expenditures, let me instance that during the three
years of my administration the Legislature has appro-
priated for the purchase of additional land^, for new build-
ings, and for remodeling of old buildings with their appur-
tenances, all devoted solely to the State care of mental
defectives and the criminal, and exclusive of repairs and
equipment, more than one million three hundred thousand
dollars.
To meet the legitimate demands of all State departments
and institutions for larger appropriations with which to
finance the great increase in the State's activities, the rev-
enues of the State were severely taxed, and the Legislature
of 1914 was called upon to provide new sources of income,
if a State tax or bond issue would be avoided. This was
accomplished by the enactment of an inheritance tax act,
imposuig a reasonable and fairly graded tax on the estate
of decedents, which in the first year of its operation added
nearly two million dollars to the State funds. The requisi-
ton act, passed the same year, also aided in relieving the
financial situation, in that it helped to check improper ex-
penditures and prevented obligations being incurred in ex-
cess of appropriations, which in previous years the Legis-
lature had been compelled to meet by extraordinary supple-
mental appropriations. Solely because of these acts, our
financial condition is better to-day than it has been in
years, and with the elimination of extravagant expenditures,
through wise legislative appropriations, all fair require-
ments of every branch of our government can be met.
The net increase of State receipts for the year just closed
over the previous year was $749,5^.72, and the balance
in the treasury October 31st. 1916, for State uses was
$3,994,000.42, against which were outstanding requisitions
and contracts amounting to $2,137,096.55. leaving a free
balance in excess of obligations of every kind and nature
of $1,856,303.87. It is a wise financial policy, and it should
be the aim of the Legislature always to keep a large free
balance, at least a million dollars, in the treasuiy as a pro-
tection against unforeseen contingencies, since the Consti-
tution prohibits the creation of any debt or liability of the
State in excess of one hundred thousand dollars except by
vote of the people.
G16 GOVERNOR FIELDER'S MESSAGE.
Our State departments and institutions are in excellent
condition, except for thie need of additional room, and are
well managed. Indeed, tlie State is most fortunate in hav-
ing the services on its various boards, as heads of depart-
ments and as superintendents of institutions, men and
women wlio seem peculiarly adapted for the particular work
entrusted to their charge. They rank high, and among
them are many who are recognized as authorities in the
special field of work in which they aye engaged. The only
criticism I have to offer is directed at our prison condi-
tions, the blame for which can be placed on previous Legis-
latures, rather than on those in charge of prison man-
agement.
The State Prison is old, unsanitary and ill-adapted to
the care of twelve hundred prisoners there confined. In
fact it should not be located in a thickly settled part of a
large city, and the property should be sold and a new
location secured. The Rahway Reformatory might well be
taken for this purpose and a new site for the Reformatory
purchased. A portion of the prison buildings is antiquated
and unhealthy, and the use of such buildings should be
abandoned. The piison is poorly ventilated and the inmates
get little sunlight, and there is no room in the grounds for
recreation, and what room there is is insufiicient for exer-
cise. If it is not considered feasible to change the location
of the prison at this time, the State Arsenal, which adjoins
the prison grounds, could be moved elsewhere, the arsenal
building torn down and the vacant land included within
the prison bounds. This would be a great improvement,
the expense of wliich would be small and the resulting
benefit large.
By an act of the Legislature of 1914, it was declared as
tlie policy of the State to abandon tlie practice of con-
tracting the labor of convicts, and new contracts were for-
bidden. Although the Board of Prison Inspectors, with the
consent of the Governor, was authorized to extend the
contracts then in force, it was the intention of that act
to lapse those contracts so soon as they terminated, and
that employment should be provided by the State within
the prison, or on farhi, quarry or road work for all pris-
oners, but it has not been possible to carry out such in-
tention, and some contracts were extended and are still in
force. This was necessary because subsequent Legislatures
failed to provide sufficient funds to enable the Prison In-
spectors to establish otlier industries. The men should not
be permitted to remain in idleness, and all those now em-
ployed under prison contracts cannot be put at farm or
road work for the reason that the extent of such work is
limited, and also because some prisoners are unfitted for
manual labor and others cannot safely be trusted at out-
door work. I am not satisfied that it is wise to discon-
GOVERNOR FIELDER'S MESSAGE. 617
tinue the making of prison labor contracts. The aim of
the prison authorities is to keep the men employed, and it
seems to me that they may as well be at work under prison
contracts as at other employment, provided the preparation
of such conti-acts is carefully supervised, their terms made
fair and equitable, and a portion of the contract price for
their labor is set aside for the men. Under such contracts
less money is required from State funds, the contractors
making the initial investment for the plant and raw ma-
terial and assuming all risks of the business, such as re-
pairs to machinery, unskilled and usually disinterested work-
men, damage to goods and the marketing of the product.
If, however, the Legislature believes that these contracts
snould be terminated, it must do more than pass a law to
that effect. It must provide ample funds to enable tue
prison authorities to set up other branches of work for the
prisoners.
So long ago as 1911 the Legislature directed the Board
of Prison Inspectors of the State Prison and the Commis-
sioners of the Rahway Eeformatory to pay the dependent
families of inmates of those institutions the sum of fifty
cents a day for each day such inmates were employed at
productive labor, and later on, in 1914, the law was
amended so as to direct the Inspectors and Commissioners
to establish a wage system whereby the inmates who work
would, after deducting a sum for their care and mainte-
nance, be allowed a small wage for the support of their
dependents, or for their own benefit after parole or dis-
charge. It was not, however, until this fiscal year that any
money was available for such purpose, and. in my judgment,
the sum is insuflicient. The law presents rather difficult
financial problems, because the wage system applies to all
persons confined in these institutions, whether they work
at productive labor or are employed in clerical or domestic
work, which produces no return in dollars. In the State
Prison about two hundred men are assigned to duties within
the prison, and, while their labor is valuable and saves the
State money, it produces nothing which can be sold or
exchanged. Seven hundred ox eight hundred others are
working on prison contracts, the money from which is paid
directly into the State treasury and is absorbed in the State
funds. Of the remaining two hundred or three hundred,
some are employed on road work, for which the Road De-
partment makes compensation, others in industries estab-
lished in the prison by the State, and still others at the
prison farm, the two latter classes producing goods which
the State can sell. A wage schedule must, however, be
provided for the whole twelve hundred, and it can readily
be seen that if the money earned by the work of two or
three hundred is divided among the entire twelve hundred,
the per capita for each must necessarily be small. Another
618 GOVERNOR FIELDER'S MESSAGE.
complication is presented which may be illustrated by the
operation of the knitting plant established by the State at
the State Prison, where about thirty men are employed.
In fixing the price at which the knit goods should be sold
there should be reckoned, among other items, the main-
tenance cost of every inmate, whether within the prison,
at the farm, or road camps. Tlie result is that the sale
price fixed for these goods may, on the one hand, show
that the knitting plant is operated at a loss; or, if a highf-r
sale price is fixed, it may be above the general market price
at which these goods sell. It seems to me that since the
product of prison labor (which is sold to our own State
institutions and departments) must compete with outside
manufacturers, the price should compare favorably with
general maiket prices, and that until other industries are
established at which the men who now work for prison
contractors can be employed at productive labor, the money
earned on these prison contracts should be credited to the
general manufacturing account and used, first, in the le-
duction of maintenance cost, and the balance set aside for
the benefit of all the prisoners.
Chapter 270 of the laws of 1916 provided that a person
convicted of murder in the first degree shall be imprisoned
at hard labor for life, if the jury before whom he is tried
so recommends. Previous to the passage of that act, there
was but one penalty fixed by law for this crime, namely,
death. I feel satisfied that it was the intention of the
Legislature, in passing the act of 1916, that every person
found guilty of murder in the first degree, if saved from
execution by the recommendation of the jury, should serve
the full life sentence, unless pardoned or paroled by the
Court of Pardons under its constitutional power, and yet
such may not be the result, because chapter 214 of the
laws of 1914 provides that any person sentenced to prison
for the term of his life may be released on parole by the
Board of Prison Inspectors after he has served fifteen years.
The apparent conflict between these two acts should be
remedied, otherwise an opportunity for a miscarriage of
justice is left open.
The State Purchasing Department, established pursuant
to an act passed last year, has not been in operation suffi-
ciently long to justify me in expressing an opinion as to
whether or not it will prove a success, but I believe it will.
It would have been a failure, however, because of lack of
sufficient funds, had not the State House Commission taken
advantage of chapter 49 of the laws of 1916 and combined
the Bureau of Audit and Requisitions of the Comptroller's
Department with it. Naturally the first cost of establish-
ing the Department, Including the preparation and print-
ing of its schedules, forms and contracts, will be large. On
November 1st, last the sum of $10,000.00 became available
GOVERNOR FIELDER'S MESSAGE. 619
for tlie use of the Department, and by December 1st it had
incurred obligations for printing and advertising, amounting
to about $G,G70.00. which leaves a balance for the continu-
ation of its work for eleven months of only ?3,S00.00, out
of which the salary of the Purchasing Agent must be paid
at the rate of $416. 6G monthly. To give this Department a
chance to demonstrate its efficiency during the current year,
it is imperative that a supplemental appropriation be al-
lowed it. It would be good business to amend the law so
as to authorize the Department to make purchases for cash
from time to time, in advance of requisitions, of goods in
large quantities as the season or special opportunities for
low prices make such piu^chase wise, and to provide it with
a fund for such purchases. The goods could be held by the
seller to be delivered as required and the fund could be
recouped as the goods were requisitioned by the institutions
and charged for against their appropriations. The act con-
templates the establishment of a warehouse or warehouses
for the storage of goods purchased until such, time as they
may be required by institutions, but no money was provided
for such purpose. After it has been demonstrated that the
Department is practical and economical, provision should be
made to make such, investment possible.
I direct your attention to a decree of our Court of Chan-
cery in the case of McCarter, Attorney-General, vs. Lehigh
Valley Railroad Company (78 X. J. Eq. 346), which decree
declared void a grant made July 12th, 1889. by the Riparian
Commissioners of this State conveying to the Lehigli Valley
Railroad Company, for the consideration of $48,000.00, the
right of reversion of the State in lands in Jersey City,
known as the "Basin of 1867," adjacent to the Morris Canal
property, upon condition that the State should pay to the
Railroad Company on or before the first Tuesday of March,
1913, or within such, further time as thereafter should be
allowed by the Court, the sum of $48,000.00 with interest
at 6 per cent, from December 20th, 1889. The decree was
affirmed by our Court of Errors and Appeals. March. 8th,
1916 (96 Atl. Rep. 1917), whereupon the Attorney-General
made application to the Court of Chancery for an order
designating the time for payment of the amount mentioned
in the original decree of that Court. Upon such application,
the Court said that the Legislature should be given a rea-
sonable time within which to make provision for the pay-
ment, and it fixed March 1st. 1917, as the time within
which the sum in question should be paid.
The consideration of $48,000.00 for the grant aforesaid
was paid by the Railroad Company into the treasury of the
State and was by the State Treasurer credited to the "In-
come of the School Fund." Our Constitution provides that
money or property appropriated or received into the treas-
ury for the support of our public free schools shall be
620 GOVERNOR FIELDER'S MESSAGE.
securely invested and shall remain a perpetual fund and
"it shall not be competent for the Legislature to borrow,
appropriate or use the said fund, or any part thereof, for
any other purpose under any pretense whatever." The
money in question was not separately invested, but went
into the School Fund, and there was commingled with other
money received by the same fund, and (if it has not been
expended for the purposes of the fund) it has now no sep-
arate identity, and it certainly has not earned 6 per cent,
interest, continuously, fjom the date it was received by the
State. In view of the constitutional provision quoted, I am
of the opinion that the Legislature cannot take from the
School Fund any money to apply toward the sum now
necessary to be paid. It surely cannot take any part of
the School Fund not derived from the $48,000.00 originally
paid. Since it is of the utmost importance, because of the
value of the land involved, that the amount due the Rail-
road Company shall be paid before March 1st, all question
of an unconstitutional attempt to take from the School
Fund any part of the sum required should be avoided, and
the payment ought to be made in full from the general
funds of the State available for State purposes. I recom-
mend that you pass at once a special appropriation bill pro-
viding for payment out of State funds to the Lehigh Valley
Railroad Company of the sum of $48,000.00, with interest
at 6 per cent., from December 20th, 1889. The amount
needed will be in exceess of the sum of $123,000.00.
In ending my oflScial connection with the State, I venture
to hope that I have been of some service in aiding those
whose endeavor it has been to so conduct our government
that it should produce the greatest measure of benefit to all
citizens. I have genuine regret that my official relations
with those with whom I have been so closely associated
must soon be severed. I have found them conscientious in
their work, earnest and painstaking in their efforts, and
rendering the State a highly intelligent and beneficial ser-
vice. It is not necessary to ask for my successor the co-
operation, assistance and support that has so generously
been given me. I know he will find it ready for him. and
with the experience he has had and knowledge he has gained
in his long and valuable legislative service, and under his
wise guidance, I feel assured that our State will go forward
toward a great and glorious future.

GOVERNOR EDGE'S MESSAGE. 621
Governor Edg-e 's Inaugural Message.
Gentlemen of the Legislature:
I assume the responsibilities of this great office convinced that
a Governor should not be merely an executive, concerned chiefly
with constitutional functions or following conventional precedents.
I revere and respect the traditions of the past, but we are now-
concerned with the future. I conceive it to be my most important
duty to direct the mobilization and encourage the development of
the assets and resources of the State, and to improve New Jersey's
social, economic and industrial conditions. Together, we will en-
deavor to capitalize our possibilities and put them on the market
for the progress of our industrial life and the happiness of all our
people.
I thoroughly appreciate that the public, in the matter of de-
mands upon and expectations concerning its officials, is far more
exacting than the average private employer. I realize, too, that
New Jersey is accustomed to the experienced guidance and wise
management of many illustrious and able men, including those who
were identified with the administration immediately preceding;
their work has been patriotic and painstaking. In view of this
situation, I presume I should be somewhat appalled at the magni-
tude of the undertaking. Frankly, however, I am not. I enter
into the constructive program looking to the welding of New Jer-
sey's government into a business organization with enthusiasm and
confidence. I believe it will be possible, with your earnest co-
operation, to effect at least five of the big legislative accomplish-
ments this year:
First — A thorough reorganization of our Road Department, in-
cluding a modern State Highway System.
Second — Home Rule for our cities to that degree which is per-
missible under the Constitution and consistent with sound govern-
ment.
Third — The increase in the franchise tax on public utilities com-
panies, as provided in our platform.
Fourth — Additional consolidations of State departments or boards
or other activities in the interest of greater economy and increased
efficiency.
Fifth— A solution, officially endorsed and officially authorized, for
our prison and institutional problems, so that the way may be
paved absolutely for genuine penal and institutional reform through
feasible development of the State-use system and colony idea.
My vision is clear as to these and other tasks which must be
undertaken, and in many instances, as to the method of accomplish-
ing them. At the same time, I do not propose here to arbitrarily
dictate final remedies, as I do not approve generally of a policy
which renders a verdict or decides an issue without a hearing or
before the evidence is in. However, I fully realize that the
Executive must, to a great extent, be the guiding spirit, a re-
sponsibility which I readily assume. I shall endeavor to encourage
team work throughout as without this success is impossible. To
this end, and in order that our unmistakable pledges to the people,
as presented in our platform, shall be carried out, I respectfully
ask the hearty co-operation of the Legislature and other responsible
officials.
My hope as well is that a business government may become a
reality and not remain a mere campaign slogan unattainod. We
have pledged to the people of New Jersey that accepted business
principles shall direct our course rather than precedent or partisan-
ship. They accepted our representations in no uncertain terms;
and gentlemen, they must not be disappointed.
622 GOVERNOR EDGE'S MESSAGE.
Little additional losislatlon is reriuired at the moment In order
to prove our good Intentions in this partic-ular respect.
Of course, I urge the further consolidation of departments in
the interest of concentrated responsibility, co-ordination of cognate
functions and sound economy, and in further messages, as I deem
necessary, I shall urge specifically such legislation. In passing,
permit me in this connection to draw your attention to the Passaic
Valley Sewerage Commission. I believe such of its responsibilities
as are still existent could be transferred to the State Health
Department or to the North Jersey Water Supply Commission,
created to deal with a related subject in the same section, and
the State thereby saving thousands annually in salaries and re-
ceiving the benefit of more concentration of authority. The Passaic
Valley Sewerage Commission was established about fifteen years
ago, and by devising and furthering a practicable solution for the
sewerage problem in the Passaic Valley it has served the basic
purpose for which it was created. Then there are the appraisers
or agents employed in each county to carry out the work of taxing
the transfer of decedents' property. It occurs to me that the
county surrogates, through whose hands all such estates must pass
finally, could very easily do the work of these special agents, thus
abolishing twenty-three oSices. saving expense and simplifying the
system of collecting our inheritance tax.
But to-day we have various important consolidations which should
command our immediate attention from the standpoint of careful
and energetic administration and prove the possibility of a business
government. We also have a State Budget law. We have a
Central Purchasing Bureau act. Obviously, it is our immediate
duty to go ahead and administer these laws that we already have,
so that their operation will be effective and the result will be a
thorough business administration, affecting as they do practically
every department of the government of our State. All law is
valueless without enforcement.
BUSINESS GOVERNMENT.
The question may be asked:
"What is a Business Government, as applied to a State unit?
The term 'Business Government' is too general, and we should
like to have the plans and specifications."
Briefly, my conception of a "Business Government" is this:
I believe the Governor of the State should be the Business
Manager of the State's varied interests; that the Legislature, as
representing the various county units, should be the Board of
Directors; that the people should realize they are the stockholders,
owning collectively the business of New Jersey, and that the busi-
ness of New Jersey, speaking from a material standpoint, consists
of all the natural resources, such as coast lines, river lines, harbor
facilities — developed and undelevoped, forests, streams, minerals,
and all those assets which Nature has provided. But, it may be
said, they are in most part privately owned. So they are. But
it is through wise, helpful and remedial legislation and co-operation
on the part of the State Government with the Federal Government
that many of these resources are brought into practical use, where
men are employed, where industry is encouraged, where commerce
is developed, and through all of which our State is made greater
and our people of all classes happier.
The State's business also includes the opportunity — nay, imposes
the obligation — to provide for and alleviate the distress of un-
fortunates and dependents, and through wise legislation and prop-
erly conducted institutions, to correct as far as possible those evils
responsible for this problem. The causes must be eradicated or
their effect minimized.
The entire proposition, whether from the material or social side,
is one requiring business judgment and business organization.
GOVERNOR EDGE'S MESSAGE. 623
I propose to bring together, as far as possible and practicable in
a political government, the different boards dealing with these
various subjects in order to encourage their co-operation, each
realizing that the Governor is the General Manager of all this
business, reporting through him, consulting with him, planning
with him for further development and further improvement. The
Legislature, otherwise the Board of Directors, is in session ap-
proximately only three months of the twelve. It is my plan to
form what might be termed an unofficial or semi-official cabinet,
consisting of departmental heads and representatives of the Senate
and House, to meet, consult and devise during the nine months
that the Legislature is not in session. I want to distribute this
responsibility so that our business becomes one of twelve months,
rather than one of but three months.
I cannot lay out in detail in a message the many things that
go to make up a business government, but, summarized, it is
simply introducing into what has been an accepted political govern-
ment the common-sense rules of every successful private business
corporation of the day.
I appreciate, gentlemen, that the millenium has not arrived.
Neither have I a remedy for all the ills of government. But I am
absolutely convinced that it is possible to transform, to a great
extent, a political government into a workable business organiza-
tion, and to that task we are indelibly committed.
APPEAL FOR EXEBCISE OF JERSEY CITIZENSHIP.
If we are to transform a purely political government into a
real business organization and capitalize our resources and put
them on the market for the development of our industries and the
benefit and comfort of our people, we should first exert every effort
to interest in their investment the stockholders owning the business
of New Jersey. I think everyone will admit that in some parts
of our State, the New Jersey interests are subordinated to, or
overshadowed by, the interest of the nearby metropolitan cities
of adjacent States.
In South Jersey many of the activities which should be robust
and healthy are weak and struggling because of the competition
across the Delaware. Many of our people enjoy living in New
Jerse.v, but they do business in Pennsylvania. They maintain in-
dustries in Pennsylvanian. They help to build up the great taxable
wealth of Pennsylvania. They know all about political Pennsyl-
vania, but little or nothing about political New Jersey.
In North Jersey conditions are similar. In the great colony of
New York commuters of this section there are many taxpaying
Jerseymen — men of brains, initiative, constructive abilit.v — who do
big things to add to the wealth of ratables in New York City, yet
who do little for New Jersey outside of maintaining homes here
and paying their taxes. They do not know our possibilities be-
cause they do not know our politics or our local problems of com-
merce and agriculture and manufacturing and development. In
the last election in New Jersey, 50,000 more Jerseymen voted for
the two leading presidential candidates than voted for the two
leading candidates for United States Senator or Governor, and to
my mind th.is means, to a considerable extent, that about 50,000
Jerseymen did not have sufficient interest in the internal affairs
of New Jersey to take part in the State election.
Is it any wonder that New York and Philadelphia have the
means to finance great undertakings of commercial development,
while New Jersey sometimes lags behind and hesitates at the
expense? What we need is more Jersey citizenship — real citizen-
ship, active citizenship, jealous citizenship — rather than mere "resi-
dentship." I appeal, for genuine Jersey citizenship. I ask the
people to come to a full realization of the practically limitless
possibilities of New Jersey, commercially, agriculturally and in-
624 GOVERNOR EDGE'S MESSAGE.
dustrially. In the creation of nonpolitical business boards I pro-
pose to call in men of this type to contribute tLeir part to solving
our problems. Tbey will receive no salaries, but will receive
dividends in the form of an active, progressive New Jersey,
thoroughly alive to its opportunities. In this particular connection
I am pleased to refer to three subjects of paramount importance —
Roads, Waterways, and the High Cost of Living. All three require
the immediate consideration of the Legislature and the closest
attention from the public at large.
STATE HIGHWAY SY.STEM.
Obviously the people appreciate the importance of gfx>d roads.
I need not elalx^rate on that after the decisive adoption of the
Egan Bill. They realize the revolutionary efifect which the auto-
mobile has had on overland tran-sportation; the possibilities which
lie in its further development; and the imperative necessity of a
great highway system which shall amount practically to a State-
wide trackless trolley, used by thousands of motor car owners,
not alone for pleasure, but in the transportation of farm products
from farm to market, of raw material from the point of production
or delivery in the State to the point of refinement and manufacture
and of finished products and foods from the market to the con-
sumer. The remedial effect which the proper development of the
roads must have upon the economic and industrial ailments of the
day is self-evident. The sole question then for the present con-
sideration is: How?
It is my conviction that we should approach the road problem
as promising one of the greatest assets in return for State ex-
penditure. "We already receive approximately a million and a half
dollars annually from motor license fees. Roads reach every corner,
while only as business warrants can railroads and trolleys serve
all the people at their very doors. With the development of motor
transportation and hard-surface highways, business interests, es-
pecially manufacturers and dealers, are finding a new method of
delivery. The State must meet this condition of modern demand,
and in return, a rearrangement of licensre fees to fit the present
use of the highways should be devised. New Jersey wishes to
encourage the use of her highways for such purposes and to co-
operate with producers, but the distribution of the expense must
be equitable and fair. I recommend a rearrangement of motor
license fees to take into contemplation these rew conditions, par-
ticularly as they relate to motor trucks and vans.
You are already familiar with the proposition of allowing to
remain inoperative the Egan act so that suflacient funds for con-
structing the State Highway System — that is. through trunk high-
ways, built, rebuilt, and forever maintained by the State — may be
raised by a temporary road tax on the entire ratables of the State.
This is a pay-as-you-go plan. It saves millions in interest charges
necessary to financing the hichway system on a bond issue basis.
By levying a tax of one mill on the approximately three billion
ratables of New Jersey sufficient money would be raised in five
years to finance the whole Project, and as much per year as can
be wisely expended. By this plan a future generation would not
be loaded down with debt. I know of no plan that will oblige
a closer scrutiny by the public of highways expenditures than of
putting the financing on a tax rather than a bond issue basis.
It points the way to escape from excessive road costs and a fi-
nancial burden of the future which would seriously interfere with
necessary expenditures for develonment by the next generation.
Generally speaking, therefore, it is a wise example for the State
to set: specifically, it offers an immediate solution of our Starp
road problem and one that gives due consideration to other roads
in the various counties by maintaining the availability of the
GOVERXOR EDGE'S MESSAGE. 625
fund from which State aid in road building and maintenance is
at present provided.
It has been urged that because of the adoption of the Egan act
providing for a bond issue, it does not follow that the public
would endorse even a temporary road tax, and further, that the
bond issue was approved because under its provisions a State
highway system would cost the taxpayers nothing. I emphatically
disagree with this view.
If the present and future income from motor license fees should
be diverted to discharging the road bonds and paying interest
thereon, as contemplated under the Egan act, it is, of course,
perfectly obvious that this money would be removed from the pos-
sibility of use in repairing and building other important highways;,
or in other words. State aid would practically cease. When it
is realized that the Egan act contemplates taking over only about
550 miles of highway, and at present New Jersey has over 2,000
miles of improved State-aid roads, the future burden on the
counties without the usual State aid for maintenance must be
perfectly clear. Again, the item of interest under the Egan bill
totals over $2,000,000 absolutely saved the State by the tax:
future generations are not required to discharge bonds for roads
which may be inadequate to meet conditions prevailing then, as
our present roads are to present requirements; and more important
perhaps than either of the above is the declaration by various
authorities, and so far as I have been able to ascertain, undis-
puted, that the $7,000,000 provided under the Egan act would not
under any conditions be sufficient to build the highways specified,
and that the act is therefore impracticable, if not absolutely im-
possible of execution. The Egan act, however, has served a
very useful purpose. It has enabled you to learn that the people
of New .Jersey want a State highway system, and are willing to
pay for it.
The matter of financing is our responsibility, and must be ad-
justed to secure results, not certain litigation. Again, if we are
to have a real State highway system, the solution must be ap-
proached from the broad, unselfish point of view that it will
become a State-wide asset of advantage to all classes of citizen-
ship, cities, towns and rural districts alike. In my judgment,
any attempt to especially assess benefits or discriminate in cost
as between sections will so confuse the issue that a speedy
solution will become practically hopeless and the clear desire of
the people, as expressed by their overwhelming vote, remain un-
satisfied. It is not an issue for narrow distinctions, but one de-
serving broad co-operation.
What public improvement could more properly come under the
heading of a State-wide accomplishment of universal benefit than
a modern highway touching every county in the State? Whether
highways are constructed by means of a bond issue or tax. in the
final analysis the taxpayer must, of course, bear the burden.
Before this present Legislature adjourns, the way must be clearly
and legally provided. On the question of administration of the
road department, I am convinced that the State will be well
served by following a similar plan to that adopted for the manage-
ment and control of other consolidated departments under the
economy and efficiency legislation, providing that the Governor
shall appoint a highway commission of eight citizens, at least
two or three to be recognized ougineers, to serve without salary
and to have absolute authority in all matters, selecting their
commissioner of highways, engineers and other necessary employees
above the grades of civil service. I have followed the patriotic
work of similar Boards of Conservation and Development, of Com-
merce and Navisration, and of Health, and find the service they
are giving the State is of the highest and most intelligent order.
Care, of course, must be exercised in selecting such a board, but
vdsely chosen from that class of men interested in road develop-

ment and willing to serve tbeir State, the taxpayers would be
assured of a wise expenditure of the large sum of money con-
templated. This would prove another practical adoption of recog-
nized business principles in place of political control.
The dirt roads of the State, or what are known as unimproved
roads, should receive more consideration. In many parts of the
State these are numerous. The bulk of the people in rural com-
munities live on by-ways; it is not their fault that they are not
on the trunk lines. If these highways were improved through the
aid and supervision of the State, back farms and properties would
become accessible and valuations woulil increase. I appreciate
that certain laws passed last year constituted a step in this di-
rection. But under none of these acts may the State spend more
than $105,000 a year in such work on a fifty per cent, basis, nor
may any road be improved under this plan where the right of
way is less than thirty-three feet; and in those acts where county
freeholders are authorized to help, the road must be an extension
of or connection with some permanently improved road. My idea
is that the present legislation is not sufBciently liberal to permit
of desirable progress in this important direction. I understand
that New York State provides from a half a dollar to a dollar
for every dollar that the township raises for the improvement
of dirt roads. Some similarly liberal plan in New Jersey would.
I firmly believe, assist our aim to increase the accessibility of
all New Jersey communities through good roads and thereby help
solve the economic and industrial problem? with which we all are
familiar. It does not reduce the cost of transporting farm products
where the farmer located on an inferior byway is compelled to
start with a lighter load in order to navigate the poor road from
his farm to the improved highway. The benefit of the modern
road is thus practically lost in its relation to the cost of trans-
portation, which is but little reduced if at all.
Were we to use our present road income for discharging bonds,
however, our finances would, of course, not permit further road
development.
The question of a State patrol system, State aid for highways
not included in the State system, the improvement of dirt roads
in the counties, the question of proper materials, drainage, and
in fact, every detail of highway construction and maintenance
should be referred, without too much restriction on the part of
the Legislature, to the Highway Commission.
PATROL SYSTEM.
Conceiving and working out a systematic, practicable patrol
system should be among the very first considerations of this High-
way Commission. Road maintenance is quite as important as
road building. New Jersey has invested in many splendid roads,
but it has not preserved them. In this respect our highway
policy has been shamefully wasteful. I recommend that no road
bill be passed unless it is based on the patrol system of main-
tenance and contains the authorization and provisions necessary
thereto. I recommend that .vou adhere to this principle even
when it comes to assisting the counties, and I shall urge that
hereafter no State aid be given a county until the latter has
agreed and definitely arranged to meet such requirements of the
State for systematic and everlasting repair.
WATERWAYS.
In the interests of the development of our waterways and ports.
I urge the co-operation of the Legislature and the information of
the public in the comprehensive plans of our Department of Com-
merce and Navigation.
GOVERNOR EDGE'S MESSAGE. 627
Almost entirely surrounded by water, ■n-ith navigable streams
running through nearly every county, located directly between two
of the greatest ports in the world. New Jersey ought to be the
greatest commercial State in the country. It will be if only
Jerseymen will speak for Jersey and represent Jersey.
I bespeak every possible legislative encouragement for the great
marine projects, one on the New York Bay and the other on the
Delaware, now being considered by the cities of Bayonne and
Camden. Marine terminals, adequate docking facilities and general
waterfront development are among the first essentials in the
campaign for a Greater New Jersey. Exporters demand adequate
dockage facilities. The ports of New Jersey must be accessible
and inviting. The cities located on the waterfront can accomplish
much for the general development of New Jersey by taking the
initiative in these matters, as Camden and Bayonne have done,
and co-operating with the Department of Commerce and Navigation.
Our municipalities should not hesitate to avail themselves of the
assistance of this department.
Under an act passed by the Legislature last year, municipalities
bordering on tidal waters have the power to join hands in what
may be made a co-operative plan with the State and Federal
Government, whereby salt marsh and meadow lands and lands
under water may be reclaimed and improved until they become
valuable assessed property of the municipalities, enhancing the
wealth of the State in ratables.
I call attention to the great possibilities, under this plan, of
developing for manufacturing purposes, the hundreds of acres of
useless waste land in the northern part of the State, particularly
that vast section along the . Hackensack river and within small
gun range of our great cities of Newark and Jersey City.
PUBLIC OWXERSHIP OF WATERFEONT.
Another matter that should receive careful consideration in con-
nection with the development of the waterways and ports of our
State is the ownership of the accessible waterfront along the
Hudson and Delaware. I have the opinion of men experienced
in international commerce that the business at the ports of New
Jersey suffers a severe handicap because of the private ownership
of the waterfront. It seems to me some public control, similar
to that which New York City exercises, besides creating a source
of revenue, would put into the hands of the people the power to
curb waterfront monopoly. It occurs to me that we want to
thus encourage competition along the waterfront of our commercial
cities at the same time that we are pressing, as we propose to
do vigorously and relentlessly, our fight against the lighterage and
rate discriminations of the railroads at the port of New York.
We should prosecute this fight, and at the same time, interest
and bring in line with New Jersey, if possible, Chicago, Cincinnati,
St. Louis, Pittsburgh and other big shipping centers.
TKAXSPORTATION OVER OR UNDER RIVERS.
A matter tiiat is properly treated in connection with the de-
velopment of waterways, because it relates thereto, is the dual
project of modernizing transportation facilities across the Hudson
and Delaware rivers, with a traffic tunnel for the former and a
bridge for the latter. These undertakings, heretofore entirely
separate in their treatment and prosecution, have been considered
and debated and urged for several years by public-spirited citizens,
but in my judgment, they have not received the proper sanction
and co-operation. The assistance of the State must be enlisted.
At this stage of the proceedings, when the sails seem to be
flapping and in need of some steady, depen<lable, directing in-
fluence, I am frank to say that I believe this administration can
628 GOVERNOR EDGE'S MESSAGE.
well serve the people by getting squarely and aggressively behind
these enterprises. I urge the counties most directly concerned to
consider them, not as the mystic products of idealism, but as
gigantic projects of major importance to New Jersey and to the
country at large — as potent factors in the solution of our economic
problems, desirable contributors to the comfort and convenience of
our people and as invaluable facilities in the event of war. I
firmly believe that we may confidently depend upon New York
and Pennsylvania for all necessary co-operation; for the enter-
prises will be mutually beneficial. Progress injures none. The
history of the construction of bridges across the East river be-
tween the city of New York and Long Island, shows that the
population and industries of New York were not affected by the
long-apprehended trend to Long Island. Nor would our neigh-
boring States suffer in the slightest degree from the modernizing
of traffic facilities across the Hudson and Delaware.
SHIP CANAL DEVELOPMENT.
Along with the encouragement of waterway, waterfront and
general transportation development, I believe this administration
should take a keen interest in the possibilities of a ship canal. I
thoroughly appreciate that to a certain extent this is a federal
responsibility,- but the federal government is waiting on us for
the right of way.
The thirty-two miles of river front from Camden to Trenton is
now more than two-thirds occupied, either by manufacturing plants,
towns, or configurations of shore that fail to be attractive spots
for manufacturing establishments. This stretch is of great value
to the State. Of how infinitely greater value, then, would be a
river with both sides in New Jersey, running for 34 miles through
a strip of what is now farming land, from Bordentown to Perth
Amboy? Surely it would vitalize what is now back-country ter-
ritory. It would be the choice location for manufacturers in the
eastern part of the United States. For the coal, pig iron and
lumber of the major part of the eastern States it would provide
access to two large cities on a safe highway.
I submit for your consideration the desirability of further legis-
lation looking toward the acquisition of the right of way for such
a canal or a strip of land two miles wide, so that the State may
have the opportunity to recoup its outlay, perhaps many times
over, by selling manufactory sites.
HIGH COST OF LIVING.
I believe that the extension and development of New Jersey's
roads and waterways would have a remedial effect on the malady
known as "the high cost of living." Undoubtedly the exorbitant
cost of transportation, of handling and rehandling products of the
farm and factory, Is a factor contributing to this serious condition.
Of course I shall not presume to diagnose an economic disease
which is baflaing experts. But my idea is that New Jersey might
do her part in a task which is national in its scope by the au-
thorization of an unsalaried commission of not more than three.
Tliis commission, for which I am quite sure we could find well-
qualified, experienced men, would co-operate with various agencies
which are now considering this all-important subject and represent
our State with official standing.
Such a commission might serve as the agent of the State in
the big task of revolutionizing the attitude of oflSeial New Jersey
toward certain marketing conditions which appear to have direct
bearing on the high-cost problem. I have in mind particularly
those marketing conditions relating to our fisheries. It is difiicult
to control the prices of food products acquired through man's
enterprise and skill — that is, planted, cultivated and harvested, or
GOVERNOR EDGE'S MESSAGE. 629
raised. But New Jersey is blessed with one large source of food
supply which nature alone has provided: the salt-water fish.
Here is an inexhaustible mine with ore rich in its possibilities
for economic benefit.
The State to-day licenses pound fisheries in return for a small
revenue. Millions of pounds of fish are caught. Through an
investigation made by a legislative commission we learn that
the pound fishermen themselves receive only from 2 to 4 cents
per pound for these food fish, shipped almost exclusively to
Philadelphia and New York wholesale markets, while the same
fish, when retailed in our markets, bring from 15 to 20 cents per
pound, or even more. Then again, the waste under the present
system of shipment and storage "is said to be appalling. It
might be feasible to have the State establish warehouses along
the coast for handling this product, paying pound fishermen the
market prices, from 2 to 4 cents, so that this industry would not
be interfered with, but fixing the prices for sale to the wholesale
markets of New .Jersey just sufiiciently higher to pay the actual
expenses of handling. Unquestionably this would reduce the price
to the New Jersey consumer very materially. Even now we
regulate through the Public Utilities Commission the price of the
use of various utilities because they are regarded fundamentally
as the people's, but given over to private control, management
and development as a public privilege. Our fisheries are in the
same class, if not more so. The price of this particular foodstuff
furnished by nature is reasonably subject to regulation, if not
by assertive public ownership, then by regulatory legislation.
It is a truism that good roads make for better economic con-
ditions and more producers and better transportation and easier
marketing; while the continued maintenance of our inland water-
way, supplemented by the establishment of landing stations where
farmers could bring their produce to be shipped, by boat to the
large cities, would, I firmly believe, relieve the cost situation.
The establishment by the larger cities of free market terminals
at the docks, readily accessible to the waterway boats, would
prove a co-operating step calculated to encourage farming and
help knock high prices. The latter thrive on excessive transpor-
tation charges and the lack of a market where overhead charges
are not exorbitant. By way of suggestion and co-operation in
all such relative subjects, a commission such as I have recom-
mended might accomplish much for New Jersey and for the nation.
ENCOURAGING AGRICULTURE.
I have referred briefly to the necessity for more markets of
easy accessibility, but I want to emphasize this important point.
The French plan of "near markets" and "sure markets" for the
small producer would encourage the farmer in his enterprise, call
many of our sons back to the soil and result in a reasonable
readjustment of food prices.
However, I believe we should go a step farther and create a
great State market of our own in the combined public institutions
of New Jersey. Despite the efforts made at produce-raising in
separate jurisdictions, it is costing the State hundreds of thousands
of dollars to feed its growing number of dependents — the insane,
the indigent poor, the physically-afilicted and the inmates of
various charitable and correctional institutions. Yet adjacent to
those institutions there are thousands of acres of land, either
owned by the State or readily and cheaply available, which can
be cultivated and tilled, and made to yield sufficiently to supply
practically all of our dependents with food, thus reducing the
tax butden of every property owner. The task calls for uni-
formity of control, system and the application of modern methods.
The responsibility for properly handling this joint proposition of
a State Farm and State Market should be centralized in some
630 GOVERNOR EDGE'S MESSAGE.
one body or agency, and I earnestly favor legislation designed to
bring this about.
Such a proposition, of course, should have the hearty co-operation
of the State Board of Agriculture. I trust you gentlemen will
enter into the spirit of any plans which the State Board of
Agriculture may liave for raising the productivity of this public-
owned land through intensive farming, or for encouraging the
private farmer, and lessening the distance and reducing the cost
between the farm and the market.
CONFERRING WITH MAYORS.
I have already discussed tlfb need of co-operation between the
State and the counties on the question of good roads and between
the State and the cities on the question of waterway and water-
front development and the reclamation and improvement of waste
lands. But there is a broad field for even more extensive co-
operation between the State and its municipalities.
Our State, though sovereign in power, it should be remembered
is a collection of such units as cities, towns, townships and
other municipalities. No State can be greater than its component
parts. Therefore the interests of the State and of these units
are common, and I believe that the mayors of these individual
municipalities, as the official representatives of the people and
taxpayei'S there, and the Governor, as the ofiicial representative
or mayor, as you choose, of all of these municipalities or units
taken collectively, should be brought together on a common ground
occasionally to discuss the problems of the municipalities and
the relation of the State government thereto. Of course these
conferences should be so arranged that municipalities of the same
class only would be represented and considered at any one time,
as of course, the needs of municipalities and the methods of
assisting them vary according to the classification and location.
I propose calling such conferences from time to time, and I
hope that they may prove fruitful in effecting a closer relationship
between State and municipal government for the benefit of both.
They ought to prove particularly helpful, it seems to me, in
carrying out successfully such recommendations of our commission
which was appointed to survey municipal financing as may be
considered feasible and wise. Incidentally, I bespeak the very
earnest consideration of the Legislature of such recommendations
as are made by this commission, which has made a minute in-
vestigation in all parts of the State and has made a businesslike
study of the municipal financial problem. The suggested type of
work for these conferences of State and municipalities can be
taken up and considered between legislative sessions, and it will
thus do much toward placing the business of New Jersey on an
all-year-'round basis as a permanent business proposition rather
than alone an annual subscribing to pledges by political organi-
zations.
STATE PRISON AND INSTITUTIONS.
If New Jersey is to perform its duty to its criminal charges and
itself the prison problem must be solved. Likewise, attention
must be given to overcrowded conditions and other problems at
various other State institutions. Here is a task for this adminis-
tration upon which I cannot put too much stress, for it is urgent.
Conditions in the State Prison at Trenton are admittedly un-
satisfactory. Overcrowding prevails. The ground maintained for
prison purposes is so extensively occupied with buildings that there
is no opportunity for sanitation. It has been suggested that the
State take over the old State arsenal grounds and purchase ad-
joining lands for the purpose of enlarging the prison. At best
this is another makeshift proposition. It would relieve the situa-
tion temporarily, but not effect a cure. It seems to me that we
GOVERNOR EDGE'S MESSAGE. 631
are far enough advanced in our ideas on prison reform to face
this problem and solve it for all time in a big way.
I believe the door of opportunity for this solution opens to
penal farms and road -work. If these well-known ideas are put
into greater practical practice in New Jersey, there will be no
need for such extensive prisons. Inside industries, which of course,
must be preserved for those prisoners who cannot do outside work,
will be the easier regulated, because they shall need to be less
extensive. The State-use system as a substitute for the contract
labor system, which is unlawful and ought not to be permitted
under the subterfuge of the so-called piece-price plan, can be
extended on such a comprehensive scale that it may be possible •
even to solve the prison problem without adding a foot to the
grounds of the institution in Trenton.
I take it that the success at Leesburg shows the possibilities
of the penal farm system. Reports show that over one-half of
the thousand acres there is now cleared of trees, shrub and roots,
and in a year or two all of this farm will be available for
cultivation of food crops. At this time, the reports show, the
men there liave constructed several temporary buildings, have
cleared land, have cultivated crops of vegetables, grain and other
food crops for live stock, and in general have put the former
useless land into a condition of productivity. Such reports suggest
the idea that, without interfering with free labor, it might be
possible through an arrangement between State and private owner
to use the prisoners in reclaiming for farming purposes the
thousands of acres of pine and shrub barrens in the southern
part of the State. This might be done either through greatly
increasing the number of penal farms, or if legal and feasible,
by merely reclaiming the land for private owners, who would never
bother about the task of making it productive under other cir-
cumstances. It has appealed to me that this idea may be worthy
of some consideration after reading the report of an investigator
to the effect that after all of the land set apart for the penal
farm at Leesburg had been cleared and rendered ready for farming
"comparatively few prisoners can there be employed." Evidently
it is in the clearing and preparation of the land for agricultural
purposes that the most prisoners can be employed, and the im-
perative necessity at this time is to devise the greatest possible
amount of practical, lawful, healthful, reasonable and profitable
employment for the State's prisoners, so that the task of con-
stantly increasing the size of the institutions of confinement and
correction may be avoided.
Of course, I am not putting this forth as a mature plan of
procedure. I appreciate that the subject requires expert treat-
ment, and to this end I propose calling together in conference in
the very near future representatives of the Prison Labor Com-
mission and of the New Jersey State Charities Aid and Prison
Reform Association, inspectors of the State Prison, the Commis-
sioner of Charities and Corrections, the State Purchasing Agent,
officials of the Rahway Reformatory and other allied institutions
and of the Road Department, which has an interest because of
proposed convict road work, and of the Department of Conservation
and Development, which would supervise any extension of the
penal farm idea into the broader field of reclaiming barren lands.
I shall want them to tell their stories individually, express their
own views and submit to questions.
In brief, there is necessity for harmonizing the conflicting
opinions and views upon this question and obtaining speedy legis-
lative action for the purpose not only of solving the prison reform
problem, but also, of reorganizing and idacing on a sound business
basis the management and care of public institutions of a chari-
table and correctional nature. Regarding the latter, there ought
to be more centralization of authority, and in consequence, mor«
workable and reachable concentration of responsibility.
632 GOVERNOR EDGE'S MESSAGE.
THE NATIONAL GUAKD.
I believe you Avill agree with me that the future of the National
Guard of New Jersey ought to command the serious attention of
this administration. The relation of the National Guard of the
State to the United States is going through an evolution. At the
present time it is the subject of much discussion by those in-
terested in the military policy of the Nation. Duality of control
appears to be a failure. Under the National Defense act the
National Guard became federalized, but following the mobilization
on the Mexican border, which occurred almost simultaneously with
the passage of the new act, there seems to be a wide difference
of opinion as to the feasibility of the present system, its adequacy
as a means of National defense, and whether the voluntary
principle of enrollment will Avithstand the increased demands made
by the Federal Government. In fact, Senator Borah has announced
that he has prepared a bill to repeal the federalized militia law
in favor of a more comprehensive system of military training,
and it must be admitted that there is throughout the country
more or less sentiment for universal military training and service.
The recent mobilization on the border, with no state of hostilities
existing, developed the fact that the burden of military service
should be borne by all the people instead of by merely a voluntary
class, who were force to partially sacriflce their business affairs
and home responsibilities for a considerable period in the interests
of the whole people. I believe that the time is coming when this
country shall not be required to depend on the States as separate
instrumentalities in the National defense, and will enact legislation
that will result in a well-trained and adequate force subject to
the call of the President, either by strengthening the laws govern-
ing the service of the National Guard, or by means of some other
organization, whatever its name may be.
We have in New Jersey a National Guard which I regard as
highly efficient, and which is qualifled to offer admirable service
in the National defense, and even should a system of compulsory
service be established, the National Guard will not be replaced by
it, but rather become the nucleus of it. In my judgment, it would
be a grave mistake to do away with support for our National
Guard to an extent which would curtail its efficiency, until a
satisfactory substitute is assured; and I am not in favor of any
hasty action which is not in accord with the ultimate intent of
Congress. But that the National Guard is a Federal force, and
not essential in its entirety for the special police work of the
State is evident, and as such a federalized force the question of
how far the State should continue to appropriate large sums for
the training of the National Guard is a fair one for us to consider.
If special sums are to be appropriated, it might be well to
consider if the State should not directly reimburse the troops
who served on the border with the difference between State pay
and Federal pay to make up in part for their business sacrifice,
rather than to pay for training, which, if the Federal Government
is to continue to control, should be assumed by the Federal
Government.
What attitude should we take toward the Guard pending the
solution of the problem of effective military preparedness? Might
it be possible for this administration to save the State the ex-
penditure of a considerable portion of the National Guard ap-
propriations by carefully studying the military conditions and
advocating Federal financial support more in keeiiing with the
National aspect of the Guard? The New National Defense act.
in addition to other requirements, provides for fifteen days of
field service in each year as compared with the previous six* days
annual training. The State has in the past appropriated annually
for purposes of training and instruction, including field training
at annual encampment, approximately §100,000, which is in ad-
GOVERNOR EDGE'S MESSAGE. 633
dition to expense of local administration and constructions, main-
tenance, and repair of armories. In view of the additional
Federal requirements mentioned, it seems only reasonable that
Congress or the War Department should make appropriations in
full of the requirements of the new act. The work of this ad-
ministration may be commenced this session by carefully weighing
the necessities for State appropriations requested for field training
and rifle practice, bearing in mind their relations to the State
serrice, and also by assuming a policy of opposition to the con-
struction and maintenance of additional State armories until the
Nation-wide question of a National defense is permanently settled
by Congress.
CORPORATION LAWS.
The question of a revision of our corporation laws is already
in the hands of a special commission. No doubt their report will
be of valuable assistance to you and to me in determining upon
the best program of revision.
There is no doubt that the subject needs our careful considera-
tion because of the changed conditions brought about by the so-
called "Seven Sisters" acts. At a recent hearing before the
commission which is studying the subject, it was the opinion of
a number of speakers that this legislation was so uncertain in
language as to render it almost a nullity, though the apparently
drastic provisions of the laws have driven away from New Jersey
many corporations formerly operating under Jersey charters and
have prevented others from incorporating here.
These laws have been in force five years, and that is sufBcient
time for a fair test. I am not in favor of letting down the bars,
but I do want to get this revenue for New Jersey if it can be
gotten without fostering monopoly. Have the laws really sup-
pressed monopoly and extortionate prices? Are the food specu-
lators less active and the popular outcry against monopoly and
extortion less vigorous after five years of the "Seven Sisters?"
Has a single prosecution been instituted under these measures?
Have they failed as remedial agencies, and have they succeeded
as destroyers of the State's business and income? It is a well-
known fact that a considerable number of the provisions of the
so-called "Seven Sisters" are in conflict with the Clayton act of
the Federal government. Is it not unwise that our State laws
regulating business should conflict with the last word that the
Federal government has said upon this important subject?
I do not ask these questions in a spirit of antagonism based
on an opinion already formed, but rather In a spirit of genuine
inquiry. It is the duty of this administration to ascertain what
the future attitude of New Jersey is going to be toward the cor-
porations. While my face is firmly set against the encouragement
of_unlawful combinations for purposes of manipulation and ex-
tortion or undue restraint of trade, at the same time I am not
committed to an idealistic principle which costs the State a great
deal in lost revenue and business prestige, if that principle is
only idealistic and not practical. I take the stand that while
unlawful "big business" is intolerable, all "big business" is not
unlawful, and business is not unlawful because it is big. On
the corporation question let us keep our minds open and search
with fidelity and without prejudice for the facts.
TAXATION REFORM.
Whole volumes might be written on apparently feasible solutions
of the equalization of taxation, and yet it would be necessary to
come back to the basic proposition that perfect equalization de-
pends absolutely on the determination, judgment and independence
of the assessor, uninfluenced or controlled by partisanship or
community selfishness. I am not convinced that permanent tenure
634 GOVERNOR EDGE'S MESSAGE.
in office for local assessors woukl not be the wise tiling. Of
course, the trouble with this plan is that we may give tenure to
good and bad assessors alike. At all events^ I believe all as-
sessors should be appointed rather than elected; and something
must be done to protect the assessor against politics and powerful
influence. If it is not so much the system that is wrong as it
is the failure of the assessor to do his duty under the system,
then we go directly to the root of the matter by safeguarding the
assessor in his independence and the full, free exercise of his
own judgment.
What I have termed "community selfishness" is a stumbling
block that must be guarded against with as much care as influence
on assessors through politics. The duty of the county tax board
is to hear appeals from municipal assessments and to equalize the
assessments as between the taxing districts of the county, so that
each district shall bear its fair share of the county tax burden,
which is now distributed among the districts upon the basis of the
local tax valuation as equalized between those districts. Herein,
of course, lies the temptation for each district to keep its tax
assessment as low as possible for the purpose of having to pay
as little as possible of the county tax rate. It is just as important
that valuations between counties be likewise equalized, especially
in view of a State road tax; and I earnestly recommend that you
give immediate consideration to this particular detail. You can
solve the question of equalization only by giving final power to a
body with State-wide jurisdiction, working in conjunction with
the county boards, and they with independent, properly protected
assessors.
My final thought on this much involved question is to simplify
the machinery, rather than to mystify with too much detail.
CIVIL SERVICE REFORM.
No corporation can be conducted along successful business lines
unless its employees are competent and loyal. They cannot be
competent if they are selected from political consideration rather
than because of ability; they cannot be loyal if they are subject
to outside political influence. Consequently, I make an earnest
plea for the strengthening and broadening of the Civil Service
System, and I urge that this administration be in thorough sym-
pathy at all times with the merit system.
There ought to be a standardization of salaries for the clerks
and employees, based as law now provides on "the duties, char-
acter of work, hours of service and compensation of the various
grades." Not only should employees be classified so that their
pay conforms with their duties, hours of employment and re-
sponsibilities, but there should be a system that offers an oppor-
tunity for advancement from time to time in the service of the
State to positions of greater responsibility and more compensation.
If necessary, I believe the Civil Service Commission should be
given more power in order that the various positions may be
justly graded and an incentive for good work provided with the
promotion plan. I call attention to the fact that in 1914 the
Legislature authorized an act which provides that, in addition to
the powers already conferred upon it, "the Civil Service Com-
mission shall have the power, and it shall be its duty, to suggest
standards of salaries to be paid those filling ofl3ces and positions
in the classified service of the State." If this isn't enough law,
I am ready to recommend more. But I am going to insist to
the limit of my power and ability that we have genuine Civil
Service in New Jersey, administered by those thoroughly imbued
with the spirit of Civil Service. There must be no sidestepping,
no evasion, no interference on the part of partisan politics to
keep one man in, to get another man out, or to unfairly favor
one group or set of employees as to salaries, working hours, or
GOVERNOR EDGE'S MESSAGE. 635
anytbin,? else. We want the merit system carried out iu the
spirit of the system 1 call on the friends of Cirll Service to
stand with me iu the task of putting to flight the enemies of
Civil Service and reorganizing the whole system on a business basis.
ELECTION LAWS.
It is our duty to give consideration during this administration
to the Direct Primary act and the Corrupt Practices act. They
may be considered together for the reason that they are closely
related.
Most of the features of the Corrupt Practices act are effective
and ought not to be tampered with at all. But the admitted weak-
ness of the act is that there is no limit to the amount which may
be expended. Of course, the candidate himself is limited by law,
but there is no limit to the help which he may receive from
friends. While this loophole may be very useful and may not
be so very unfair, because any party may take advantage of the
situation, at the same time it utterly destroys the idea of equality.
I suggest that we consider how to strengthen the Corrupt Prac-
tices act so as to prevent the excessive expenditure of money.
Apparently there are at lea^t two remedies. One is the English
system of limiting the amount that can be expended by either
a candidate or his friends. The other remedy is to add to the
things prohibited by law for which money may be spent. For
instance, we might prohibit the printing and posting of pictures,
other than such as is necessary to announce public meetings. The
posting of pictures of candidates is a very large item of expense,
and fails to appeal to the reason of anybody. It gives an undue
advantage to the man who raises the most money. It is a need-
less expense and usually resorted to simply because the other
fellow does it. Moreover, posters litter the highways and mar
scenery. Of course, this is but one suggestion by way of illus-
tration. Undoubtedly there are other practical ways of limiting
the expenditures.
With regard to the Direct Primary act, I want to reiterate at
this time that any attempt to emasculate the election law in the
interests of partisanship ought to be promptly and unceremoni-
ously discouraged, wherever it is found. But at the same time I
realize that the question of the practicability of certain features
of the Direct Primary and Election acts must be considered by
this administration, frankly and fearlessly, without any hesitation
because of insinuations that men or party are attempting to
weaken the acts in their fundamentals. No act is so sacred that
it doesn't require improvement or alteration fn^m time to time
as people gain more experience and conditions change. Any act,
I take it, which so completely closes the opportunity for general
competition for public oflBce, needs at least careful review and
studied consideration.
.Putting the matter concretely, what we need to do is to pre-
serve inviolate all those features of our election laws which
provide the obstacles to corruption and to revise and improve
upon other features of the laws which have been found, through
actual experience, to be faulty and impractical. You realize
that in a number of respects the election laws are confusing, and
tend to a waste of energy and money. The frequency and con-
flicting interpretations of recounts demand a clearer understanding.
Recently I read in a newspaper that Essex county will pay nearly
$75,000 to election oflScers and owners of polling places for ser-
vices and rent at the last primary and election, and "It Is es-
timated that the entire cost to the county for this year's election
will exceed $170,000." If this estimate was correct, and the
other counties paid at the same rate, the total cost of the election
in New Jersey must have been about ?935,000. Certainly, It ought
not to cost nearly a million dollars to select a comparatively few
636 GOVERNOR EDGE'S MESSAGE.
public servants. Then, again, I already called your attention to
the fact that at the last election over 50,000 voters failed to
express their choice for other than the presidential candidates.
I regret to say that, to some extent, this was undoubtedly due
to a lack of interest in New Jersey afifairs, despite the fact that
a United States Senator, Governor and other important officers
Avere to be selected; but it cannot be gainsaid that a great
deal of the discrepancy was due to the confusion created by our
form of ballot. Some idea of the extent to which general con-
fusion over the ballot caused this failure to get a full expression
of sentiment on the election of State officers may be secured by
considering the fact that less votes — I think about 11,000 less —
were cast for the two leading candidates for United States
Senator than were cast for the two leading candidates for Gover-
nor. There are a number of other particulars in which our
election laws fall short of meeting the popular demand. You
probably are already acquainted with some of them. Others you
may learn of by sounding the sentiment in particular communities
of our State where they have had various experiences with the
election laws and hold honest opinions with reference to the type
of revision that is needed. I believe we should attack this
problem vigorously and courageously.' Let us proceed on the
theory that all election reform should spring from a sincere desire
to have a full expression of the people's choice.
SCHOOL COMMUNITY CENTERS.
I feel that New Jersey ought to take some effective means to
make the public school buildings community centers for the
benefit of the adult population. Our county vocational school in-
structors and Federal agricultural agents in the counties might
accomplish more if all of the schools were thrown open at night
to the public as places of organization for this work. I believe
the public school of the city ought to be made a community
center to instruct and aid the foreigners who are constantly set-
tling among us through immigration; the public school of the
industrial community, to educate the workers so that they may
advance in their trade and better their condition, and the public
school of the rural section, so that the farmer may get the full
benefit of the State-wide and country-wide propaganda of educa-
tion in scientific agriculture. I am not convinced that it would
be unwise to use our school buildings as far as is possible to
conduct our elections, thus saving an enormous amount of money
spent in the rental of polls. That, however, may have some ob-
jectionable features. But I do recommend that the Legislature
consider a plan whereby the Commissioner of Education is au-
thorized and directed to deputize one of his assistants to im-
mediately desginate and organize certain school buildings of the
State into community centers.
CONCENTEATION OF EXECUTIVE, RESPONSIBILITY.
We should congratulate ourselves in New Jersey that we have
a comparatively short ballot. Most of the administrative officers
are appointed by the Governor, who is elected by the people, and
is very properly held directly responsible to them "for the success
or failure of his administration. The two notable exceptions —
Comptroller and Treasurer — I shall say in passing ought to be
appointed by the Governor also. But I regret that while the
Governor has the power to appoint most of his administrative
officers, he has practically no effective power to remove. Un-
deniably, the people have come to hold the Governor personally
responsible. It is unfair to so hold him and yet deny him the
power of exercising full control over the administrative officials
of his administration. I submit that there is no danger of a
GOVERNOR EDGE'S MESSAGE. 637
Governor building up a political machine through an abuse of
that power, for In New Jersey there is constitutional inhibition
against a Governor having successive terms, and besides the very
power of appointment where there are always do^pns of appli-
cants for the same position, precludes, rather than creates, the
opportunity for political machine-building.
In the interests of popularly expected concentration of re-
sponsibility, I shall be glad if I live to see the day when the
Governor, under an altered Constitution, shall have the power to
remove as well as to appoint.
Our platform covers the most important subject of an increased
franchise tax on public utilities from 2 to 5 per cent. ; municipal
home rule, which is already in the hands of a commission, and
which I feel sure will be given immediate and favorable at-
tention in order that our municipalities may be given as much
liberty as possible in the matter of directing their own affairs;
public schools, extending and developing the system from a prac-
tical and common-sense standpoint; social uplift education, fair
alike to employer and employee, along the lines of workmen's
compensation and the betterment of working conditions in fac-
tories and among labor circles generally, and like matters. I
will expect you to carry out these pledges fully and promptly.
I have endeavored to touch, with some detail, upon a few of
New Jersey's additional needs which I regard as equally interest-
ing and important. Our program is ambitious, and cannot be
completed in one administration; but at least the path can be
blazed and the future policy clearly outlined. The propositions
are so closely related that scarcely one of them could be accom-
plished without effecting the accomplishment of another or others.
Not one of them is too big for us to attempt and to accomplish
if we put our shoulders to the wheel of progress and give to
New Jersey the same honest service and the same persistent
determination to succeed which we give to our private business.
I hope that I may be worthy of your confidence and earn your
hearty co-operation throughout this administration. It is only
through faith in the honesty of our purposes and whole-hearted
sympathy and co-operation between the Legislature and Execu-
tive branches of our State that we can hope to accomplish for
New Jersey the things which New Jersey needs and ought to
have. Let' us face the task courageously and -confidently, intent
upon avoiding the pitfalls of political partisanship and selfish
business prejudice and determine to apply to the government of
New Jersey all of the business principles and progressive, en-
lightened ideas to which our State and our people are justly
entitled. New Jersey has led in many things. May the instru-
mentalities of a business government be the lever to open the
way for a still greater Commonwealth and a still happier people!
