BAD BLOOD IN NEWARK.
THE EXCISE WAR GROWING HoTTER-A MASS
MEETING OF GERMANS TONIGHT.

THE EXCISE WAR GROWING HoTrER-A MASS
MEETING OF GERMANS TONIGHT.
The '.war on the Passac'' is again in full blast.
Encouraged by their success in forcing many lead
ing saloon keepers to keep closed on Sun
days, at least far as front doors are
concerned. the city Excise Board. under the
instigation of the claw and Order" people,
has decided that man who has been before the
courts and paid fine for selling liquor on sunday
is not a fit person to receive license. This de-
cision initiates against large number OF the most
respectable saloon keepers. The consequence
is that the entire German population OF Newark
is up in arms. For weeks, through committees. the
have been striving hard to elect somo sort
of = compromise as to avoid final explosion.
The refusal of license to such man us franA
Haefeli. who. besides being large properly
owner and taxpayer, is president OF one,
treasurer of another and q director in many
German singing shooting and benevoieht societies'
is the straw which has broken the Gamers Dack
Hence yesterday Mr. Haefeii set ABOUT caing sreas
mass meeting to give vent to ms peht up
fury. A fiery handbill in German nam
ing Sunday afternoon and the Union Park
as the time and place has been circulated
II is understood that addresses will be made by DIR.
Makk editor of the Frei Zeftung; ex-Assembymac
Moercer; Colonel Meyer G. Zulick and other gentle
men, Ii the weather be fair large crowd OF people
will be present and it is thought that the proceedings
will be lively The Citizens Protective Association,
composed entirely of brewers and saloon keepers,
disavow all knowledge of the meeting beyond the
handbills. Other leading Germans also disapproved
of it.
like Haefeli have been refused licenses simply
because they offended the law against selling on
Sunday, the same all had done for years without
interference The Board OF Excise has granted licenses
to number OF persons who are well known to the
police keepers of dog fighting and immoral
''ranches." The immediate effect is to create great
deal of bad blood between Germans and Americans.

In assuming charge OF the BEE we
cherish hope OF maintaining the repN-
tation which IL has achieved under the
able management OF our predecessor us
a good and acceptable local and family
newspaper. In the future as in the past,
while giving goodly share of entertain
Ing and Instructive literary and miscella-
neous matter, its columns Will be more
especially devoted TO local news and
home interests; and in this field, while
duly chronieling all local events of pub
lie concern, 1t will also strive, so far as
may BIO in It's power. to promote the
moral and material will-boing of the com
munity whose home paper 1t is.
Experience having shown that the
quarto form for country weeklies Is not
80 popular with patrons as the folio style,
IL has been deemed best to return TO the
folio form on which the BEE was former
ly printed. II the favor of our advertis-
ing patrons should unduly crowd up our
reading matter space in the sheet as now
issued, we shall enlarge same, still, how
ever, retaining the folio style.
Starting out as young man In this
new field, and among comparative
strangers, we naturally feel some distrust
as to results, and would beg of the pa
irons and friends of the BEE to look
upon any short comings with kindly con-
sideration and forbearanco. Wecan as
sure them that in return for their kind
ness our time and thoughts and energies
shall be conscientiously devoted to the
task OF making the BEE working power
for good in the community, and well
come weekly visitor to their respective
households.

AMEN.

Stark, the detective, who has assisted
40 much In the conviction Of Bucholtz for
the murder and robbery OF his employer,
IL worthy OF great credit, and the thanks
OF a hw-abiding community for his valu-
able services in the cause Of justice. That
bis duty was q most unpleasant one
makes it more to his honor that he per-
formed 1t faithfully. There is no doubt
of Bucholtz's guilt, and the employment
OF Stark as a detectivn to prove it, was
Just az legitimate as 1t is in time of war,

pointed the Superintendent. Mr. Still
sons career demonstrates quito wildly
the benefits of a thorough attention TO
every duty however humble it may be,
and is stimulus to every honest en-
deavor. He began at the very lowest
round of the ladder. On the first of July,
1855, he made his first appearance on the
/ Housatonic Railway as q newsboy. He
served in this capacity for nearly year,
and then got place as brakeman, iii
when ne was promoted to be baggage

| further promoted to a conductorship, and
a year later took one OF the regular day
trains, in which position he remained I'M
til last November, when he became act

In the ten months he has acted as Super

The End Of the Excursion Season

With tic week that has just passed the
summer anilsements Of the community
I'may 30 sud to have formally come to an
end, and New York to have disposed
| itself to differentamethods OF recreation.
Coney Island, Ions Branch. and the nu-
merous places resorted to daily by the
lpcrnaaont and floating population of the
city, have practically closed, relapsed
into their period OF hibernation With
the more remote watering places the case
is the same, and the last week of Septem-
per witnesses the restoration to the city
of its population. The hours of business
become longer. enterprises of varying
pith and moment are born, and thrive lam
| guish or die.
The season that has ended was the best
excursion season, regarded from the
| point OF view of the excursion manager,
that New York has known. The people
who want to be amused had to pay money
for their pleasure and possessed that con-
fidence in their condition that disposed
them to seek amusement and enabled
spend their money on it. Every railroad
That gavo access TO u summer resort,
every boat that had good excursion to
offer, every barge owner and towman con-
cerned in the popular line Of recreation
all, without exception, ire able to report
a season of great activity aud profit.
Cheap, wholesome and reasonable amuse-
ment was never before in such demand
by the people, nor ever before was so
thoroughly and so probably enjoyed.
Now that the summer is over, they are
all the better for it. 1t has conferred en-
ergy, hoalth, and general sanity, and the
winters work viii be more effective.
Its held that Paris is che great city OF
pleasure, and that lis people, tradition
ally disposed to aelf-enjoyment have Sc
cured fer themselves exceptional meth
DDS and facilities iUr gratifying them
selves. 1t is greatly to be doubted, how
ever, if any great city is better endowed
in respect of topography of its inhabi
tants than is New York. It's relation to
seashore and noun tain, to river and up
land, makes of it much favored spot
itself the great waterinqi, lace of the whole
country. This is a most important factor
Of its prosperity and its further growth.
