An Unhe0JthU CitU.

In another COLUMN will be found an
interesting sanitary report on the condi-
tion oil the city of Newark, by which IL ia
shown into how unhealthy a large city
healthy large little town may grow. 1t
would be very difficult to concentrate In
one CITY more gross violation of impor-
pOrtant sanitary laws than are shown
by the report 10 exist in Newark. Every
source of evil Is about them to render
pestiterous the air breathed by the New
arkers; but the most energetic OF the
evils from which they suffer does not
oone TO them In the air. 1t Is in the wa
ter. They have two sources of water.
They get 1t from wells and from the Pas
sale River, and in either source 1t IL
equally contaminated. The land on
which Newark is placed is pierced by a
great many wells and by great many
privy vaults, and these are 80 near TO
one another that percolation is constant
and iDevita Bile But the river water is.
perhaps, worse than the well water. 1t
is drawn from the Passaic at a point q
few miles below where that river re-
ceives the sewage of Paterson. In the
light of such a fact 1t Is not strBnge that
within few years the number OF cases
of diphtheria an FROM five per thousand
10 one hundred and eleven per thous-
and.

many bright and promising scholar is
often arrested and encouragement
brought on by absence from school caus-
ed in so many cases by a cough, cold or

The Irish Relief Shin.

Some time ago Congress passed an act
autho-ing a vessel to be assigned for the
purpose of conveying provisions 10 the
Irish famine sufferers. The ship Con-
stellation was selected, and is now al the
Brooklyn Navy Yard rapidly being made
ready for the voyage. Mr.. Martin, sec
retary to Commodore Nicholson, said
yesterday that tbe vessel would be ready
for sailing next Monday, and would de-
part as soon after that time as the cargo
could be made up and slowed away.
The ship at present lies at the foot OF
Main street, in the Navy Yard, and has
the appearance Of mere hull, having been
stripped of her mas,s and rigging on her
arrival at New York in the latter part OF
January. A large gang of workmen is
busted about her, however. Commander
A. Z. Potter mas been ordered to COM
mand the ship the other officers have
not been appointed.

5aFRoM reading the editorials and
clippings Of the new morning paper
of this city one might suppose the
purpose of its getting up was to abuse
the city, county and State authorities
and find fault with Senator Bayard.
We presume it wishes to enjoy the
.unenviable notoriety of a common
mold" v.tta
The daily gazette., 1880-03-18

"a, THE Netcs was already notorious for re-
oresorting to faisehoods to adorn its col
umus, added to which false, immoral,
and obscene article was copied from an
other journal, and used day or two ago.
TO make 1t sell. This article, the caption
(which was lie to captivate and de-
ceive the eye, had none but an evil ten
dency. II was palmed off as "Wil-
mington Invention" and no other jour
nal In the city would give it an lnser-
tion.
The very same spirit causes that paper
TO send the assertion that there are "ttuo
hundred unlicensed rumsellers in this
city" and attempt to lay this lie to the
tgross negligence of those to whom is
entrusted the moral well-being Of the
forty thousand inhabitants of Whining
ton" 1t says with "tpo hundred uniieens-
Cd and something over hundred licensed
dram shops, no one need be astonished
ct the increase OF crime"
Now, 1t is not the intention of this
article to defend the Mayor and police.
We believe no officers that ever filled
.their places have ever discharged their du-
ties more faithfully than they have. Nor
has our city at any time been SO free
from srine, SO far as the news reporters
have been able to gather.
t But our object is to object to these
false statements for The sake of. the good
name our city ought to enjoy abroad, as
well as at home.
Now, If the editors Of that paper
know that there are ttco hundred un-
licensed dram shops in this city, it ought
10 be able to inform on at least one hun
dred and fifty of them; and they cannot
be good conscientious citizens unless
they do 30 themselves or take some
measures to have this done. We do not
know Of single one such establishment,
but no doubt there are some. They
should all be stopped, and every citizen
who desires this done has the right to go
and complain to the Mayor, and we will
guarantee, if they do so, be will dis
charge his whole duty in the case.
The article states a falsehood and
misrepresents our city abroad. Our
people are one of the most moral and
orderly communities there is in the
Union.
Now to the facts. We find by the
reports from the Superior Court, in
May, 1879, there were granted for this
whole county 81 licenses to sell liquor;
and at the November Term, 1879, "a
licenses were granted for the whole
county, making total for the county
Of 1876. OF these for the city in May
were 81 in November, 81. In all 8s
for the city. So that instead of there
being "over a hundred" there was not
hundred "licensed dram shops.'
These 88 included eating saloons as
well as taverus that sell liquor. In
1873 there were 119 licenses granted
for the whole county.
The enormity of the falsehood is in
the charge that there are ''two hun.
dred unlicensed dram shops" With
out particle of proof the falsehood i.
sent abroad solely with view O
manufacturing small amount of DO
litical capital for the next city elec
tion. The editors of the News ha,
better stick to the truth, such slande
and falsehood was resorted to las
September and it were most signal,
rebuked by a rousing Democratic ma
jority, double that at any previous
city election that we remember,
