Tho refusal of the Justices o£ tho Peace and Town Clerk of Broqkb aven to appoint the newly elected Super- visor , niley p. Howell , Chairman of the Town Board , because he Is a Re- publican , is a petty piece of partisan spite t hat is so uncommon as to at- tract attention. The Supervisor is by virtue of his office , almost invariably appointed to the position. His elec- tion by tho other members is merely a matter ot fo rm. In this case , however , the other me mbers went out of their way to hu- miliate their Supervisor during his term of office. At every meeting of the Town Board , as the Supervisor takes his p lace with the other members, it will be a recurring reminder ot the mean- ness of the other members that will not be lost upon the voters of the town. We venture to say th at its effect upon t he unprejudiced and Independ- ent voters of the town will be such that if Howell makes an efficient and upright official , t he Democratic mem- bers who voted to humiliate will bo ret ired permanently to private life up on the explrattoa of their present t erms of office. The Supervisor , as the head of the tow n government , should be made f lifi P hn l rm nM r\f tlio Tnwn T3n ni -* 1 T iv law. There will undoubtedly be ex- tens ive changes made in the structure o f our town and county governments in the draft of the new Constitution , to he submitted to tho voters of the State next fall. There is abundant nee d for changes that will Insure us a more efficient administration of af- fairs, un der one responsible head. The present form answered for the sparsely settled townships of fifty years ago , but t hey arc not adapted f or the populous and wealthy town- ships of to-day with , say from 10 , 000 to 60 , 000 inhabitants , and with tax budgets running up In some cases to half a million dollnrs or more every year. 1 I M I H AN ACT OF PARTISAN MEANNESS. Tho prospective impo s ition ot a di- rect State tax of $19 , 000,000 , which will amount to two mills on the dol- lar for a ll tho property of tho State , brings to the front once more the un- just discrimination against New York City in the matter of assessments. All tho real estate In that city Is listed at full value , as the law proscribes , and somo of it la excess of full value , a number of cases of which have boon told to us by owners of property in that municipality. Throughout other portions of the State the valuations for purposes of State taxation range from ton per cent, o f full value up to sixty per cent. As a robult of this tho City of Now York will have to pay not loss t han 75 per cent, of the above named Ul £ LUX. lUV j r , JIUB 1U Ul f ci UWUy T UU * bory. Wo should not bo surprised It tho City made such a forcible appeal to t ho State Tax Board that It would have to cut down tho city ' s val- uat ion largely In an equalization as between tho counties, New York pa ys about eighty per cent, of the in- direct bunion in the way of excise , an d corporations , mortgage recor ding, stoc k naloB. bank stock and frail; c hlsc luxes.

Tim Htnto linn oiior ' iuoiiH ly limrmuind t he bunion of tho city by mandatory UNJUST BURDENS UPON TH E- CITY. The now treatment of tho prisoners at Sing Sing by Warden Thomas Mott Osborn is attracting attention all over the country, lie holds that the func- tion of the State in its treatment of t ho criminals is not merely to confine them within the four walls of a prison , but it is to so build up tho prisoner physically, mentally and morally that when he has served out his sentence he will be able to go out and gain a livelihood and conduct himself as a decent , hon orable and self-respecting citizen , and become a useful member of societ y. He says these men are coming back t o the various communities from the States prisons at tho rate of 1 , 500 a y ear , and besides that there are hun- dreds of others turned out every year from the various county jails and other penal and reformatory institu- tions of this State , and it Is a very im- portant prooiem ior society, ub lu uuw they may bo mads safe and efficient mem bers of the community. Mr. Osborn lias through the opera- tion of his Mutual Welfare League turned them away from brooding over t heir wrongs in a spirit of revenge and opened up their vistas of possible achievement and kindled in their minds a spirit of hopefulness that Is invaluable in creating the new man- hood. Mr. Osborn alleges that under the ol d system of incarceration for weeks and mont hs In the close confinement of t he narrow coll , and l i y brutal treat- ment , we ha d twisted the convicts ' minds and bodies and souls. Ha says all the pr isoners ask is a square deal. He says he does not encourage cod- dling, but he does-teach-every one tha $- his punishment is just and that he should take his medicine like a man. lilO I ' UUCL UI1 LilU IUUI1 una U V VU U1U1* velous. Mr. Osborn says that In tho vast majorit y of cases tho prison sen- tence s hould be an undeterminate one. Ho says that it is impossible for Hie best of judgos to determine the full mea sure ot the crime committed by tho prisoner, This is determined largely by tho man ' s disposition and his behaviour while serving out a term. This would be all right wore all ¦wardens like Mr. Osborne , but how It wou ld work witli a warden loss impar- tial than he it is h ard to toll. To-day tho prisoners , In batches of several hundred at a time , are allowed to ta ke tholr meals in tho big moss hall without keepers to watch over them, Tho best of order prevails. Each prisoner Is on his honor and each feels responsible tor his own conduct and for Hint of his companion. The dopo evil hns boon eradicated by t he voluntary action of tho prisoners. Mr. Osborno Is now trying to got the Stato to conduct trade schools in the prison , so ns to onablo tho prisoners w hen they go back to tho outer world to ho well equipped to engage in somo ga inful occupation. His Idea of tho at- tttu do of the Stato toward tho crim- inal is not one of rovongo , but more that of a father who would chastise h is children In such n way as to make t hem bolter mon and women. Their confinement m a punishment is not to bo merely as a ilotorront by crea- t ing terror In Uio hearts of others ' criminally Inclined. Tho prisoners ' sh ould go out in the worl d so re- formed as to loach their old compan- ions t ho way of a bettor llfo.

Ab out fifty members of tlio local Fire Department accepted the Invita- tion of the Rev. W. H. Coffey to at- tend the Bethel A. M. E. Church in this village Inst Sunday evening, and listen to a discourse especially pre- pared for their edification. That \tho boys \ were well repaid for their long marc h to tho little church In tho east- , em section of tho village Is evidenced by their favorable commendation ot the Rev. Mr. Coffey ' s ability as a p reacher and his loyalty to thorn as an organization. Tho speaker choose for a subject \The Alarm , \ and took his text from the secon d chapter of tho Book of Joel , first verse: \Blow ye the trum- pet and sound an alarm in my holy m ountain; let all the inhabitants of the land tremble; tor the day of tho Lord comcth , fo r It is nigh at hand. \ He spoke extemporarlly and with both fervor and eloquence. His well defined comparisons between the Bi- blical alarms and the duty alarms of the firemen showed thorough control a nd careful study. Starting with ono of God' s first alarms to mankind against sin and disobedience—tho flood—ho went on down through \the Word . \ illustrating and comparing them in every instance most appro prlately and entertainingly with some of the worldly duties of tho men -who ar« banded together for the savins of life as well as p roperty. He referred kindly to the excellent standing of the Huntington Fi x o De- partment and told dramatically ot some of the heroic duties ho person- ally had seen them perform. Ho held me closest attention or everyone m the audience and made the firemen feel that he was preaching to and not at them. He expressed himself as highly ho nored at their presence in his little house of worship, and was also proud of the fact that ho was the first colored minister In this country to deliver a sermon to a like organ- ization. The musical part . of the program was exceptionally fine and well ren- dered , and the Bethel choir showed that they lacked only the rich tones of a big pipe organ to put them on an equa l footing with many of the sal- aried singers in their sister churches . The Rev. Mr. Coffey has been five years in Huntington as pastor of tho Bethel A. M. B. Church and during that time has cleared his church home of all debt and In many ways added to its attractiveness and up- keep. Ho gives ample credit, how- ever , to t ho people , both colored and white , < who have stood by and aided him , and to the little woman who has stood shoulder to shoulder with him In both home and church work. Al- though a Republican in politics he is democratic enough in his church nml daily life t o make ono class of individ- ua ls refer to him as \ a clever preac h- er an d good citizen , \ while with oth- ers ho Is classed as \ a good old sltato. \ Bo ho ono thing or tho other , It Is conceded by all that there is nothing of the \hol ler than thou \ about Dr. Coffey In his walk through life with his fellow man.

NOTICE. The proposition , to fill In the town property on the Mill Dam. road , at the head of Huntin g ton Harbor , now an eyeso re and a menace to the public health , with material dredged by the Federal Government from the land under water , in Its work ot deepening and widening the channel on the east side of the Harbor , and extending that channel further south , is one that should be promptly met by fav- orable action and co-operation by the Town Board. It Is proposed to use this fllled-ln plot for a town dock. Such a public dock has been needed for years. The town itself could save the cost of the construction of such a dock iu a short time in the utilization of at least a part of it as a place for landing and storing broken stone and other road materials , thus saving the double cart- age of this bulky i j tuil to sonio place o f storage back from the waterfront Moreover , t he providing ot a place close at hand for dumping the mater- ial excavated from tho harbor bottom w ill double the amount of excavation thnt nm t l H > * /» rlnna \iv *l , a firtWrtfn. ment en g ineers with the money ap- propriated by Congress , as compared w ith tho amount that tan bo excava- te d when barges have to take the spoil out into Long Island Sound for dumping. Where a simil ar arrange- ment was en tered into wllh the con- tractors w ho dredged out Jamaica Bay, tho mater ial was excavated at about 7Mi cents a cubic yard , just, one- fourth of what had to bo paid for ex- cavat ing similar material from the bottom of Huntington Harbor , which had to be taken In barges out ' to t ho Sound, At that price tlio whole upper part of the harbor could liavo been dredged out for less than $ 100 , 000 and we could have secured $80 , 000 , throe or four years ago , from Undo Sam , if wo cou ld have had a town dock pro- vided and shown any Interest in tho matter. Anot her important consideration Is that tlio unsightly mud flats that now deface tho haruor nt every low tido would bo obliterated. Tills would also t bo a groat sanitary advantage to tho entire neighboring localities. It Is • proposed to provide a low , thatch sod bulkhead lor tho piece south of tho mllli l am , an t lioro would bo no wash thoro , but for tho dock front north of tho mllldnin on tho har- bor , piling and crlbworlc would bo necessar y to retain tlio soft material which would in a short tlmo settle and become dry, permanent upland, This , .

It Is unfortunate that no arrange- ment has yet been made for putting the steamboat Huntington on the route aga in between this Tillage and New York City, and between here and Norwalk or Bridgeport. The maintenance of a goo d steamboat route was a va luable attraction to our v illage. Hundreds of people , not only of this village and immediate vicinity, but from interior points , enjoyed the treat of a sa il across the Sound and some families took tho trip two or t hroe times during tho season. There Is no doubt tho business would have grown great ly with proper attention and advertising. It would have grown naturally with tlio growth of this town. Tho boat was very popular for Sunday School and other excursions for Huntington and neighboring vil- lages, The Now York City freight ser- vice could now bo made to pay with n ff lMnnf mnn. m mnnl The big automobile trucks ot tho Now York City business houses, now ma king tho long haul from tlio city to Huntington and points cast could have tholr deliveries mndo from this village to po ints oast of hero and nearby points west of hero. Tlio big expense of a haul of 35 miles between here and t ho city would largely oxcood tho cost of bringing up tho same goods by boat. If deliveries from tho boat woro made In tho village l i y automobiles to tho door of Iho local merchant tho route wou ld bocomo a popular ono. In tho transportation of horses and catt le and boot between hero and the city nml for p nrry lnir automobiles across t ho Sound tho boat would bo a groat conven ience mid a tlmo and mone y savor. Wo havo boon Informed that n syn- dicate stands ready to buy the boat nt about fifty per cent, ol Its original cost , an d start tho iiorvlco again. It would bo better policy for the present owners to part with the boat i at t hai' price than to liavo her lying idle at tho dock , eating hor s olt up with ox poniio of maintonnnoo and repairs nm l loim of Intoront In l nvontmont .

It will mean also cheape r living for the people. If the entire $3 , 500 ,00 0 needed for the com- pletion of the entire work could have been placed In the budget this year the canal could have been completed by the end of 191G. Tho putting off granting the money needed for tho new contracts for the completion of the work till next winter means that the canal cannot be finished until the end of 1917. Tho interest on the amount already Invested amounts to over ?4 , 0O0 , OO0 per year. Tho cost ot maintenance of the im- proved State roads also runs up into mill ions and the appropriations to the cou nties and towns for assistance In building county and town roads amounts to ma ny more millions. There are continual increases in the cost of ninlnlnnnn r o nt tl, « Ina n n o / nu l t ir*\ tn t he increase in the number of the pa- tients. The various charitable and penal institutions of the State are con- tinually increasing. Tho Itepub l ican leaders say that Governor Glynn , by hi s wholesale ve- toes last year of necessary appropria- tions , lef t a legacy of obligations to Governor \Whitman that had to be met. It Is unreasonable to suppose that Gove rnor \ Whitman or the Republican leaders In the Legislature are fools en ough to create a big tax rate with- out it being absolutel y necessary *to do so. They are not anxious to de- stroy their political future. It requires more r eal courage and more honesty to meet a difficult situation promptly than to .post pone it. and leave it for one ' s successor to deal with. i Of this amount $3 , 500 , 000 will be need- ed to finish the work of construction and tho rest will be needed to pay for unexpected awards to owners of ad- jacent p roperty, and for mill rights de- stroyed and other Interests attccteu. Of tin ' s sum It is proposed to put Into tho direct tax levy this year $4 , 000 ,000, enough to permit o f the completion of t he present contracts , work on which Is under nay. The remainder , it is p roposed to meet by means of a bond issue, to ho aut horized by tho electors of the State next fall. The completion and operation of thi s canal will Immensely lower freigh t rates on bulky merchandise , legislation ns to tho salaries to bo paid municipal employees in various departments of its government. It has been slow also in giving leg- islative sanction to various necessary wa ter itonV improvement plans and ot her enterprises necessary for the growth of tho municipality. Let us remember that New York City is the heart of this State; through it fl ows the life blood of the common- weal th. It is for our best interests to help it nil we can In its competi- tion with other coastwise cities , ma k- ing tremendous efforts to wrest from It its commercial pre-eminence. o » o « » A H n vldw nf I. n n/run Work, In enter- Inlniiiiint form wild given by throe ii hiHiuiii , t lio Inlorniodlato , Junior and I ' r liimry, of tho M, Id, Church, Tumidiiy iiv onl u K. mid from nlurl to Unlaw It wns much o nj o yoil, Tho memory work wnu rnully wonderful, Mrs. T, H, Hull rmuloroi] imvnral union during tlio evening, f.o d lur Alexander and All ien Rammlii 1 v liilln n ol o n woro also , highly cnidltnlil o .
