The Sunday tatler and Jersey City express. (Jersey City, N.J.) 1883-1886, 1886-09-05


to the clamor. The worst they could suf-
fer was defeat, and in the strongest Repub-
lican stronghold in the state that was
very old story to them. And so they put
Nehemiah Perry up for the popular suf-
frage, on straight and definite temper
ance platform. The canvass was conduct
ed with a special view to the liquor ques-
ton, and Nehemiah Perry became Mayor.
The two points that made the victory
especially notable were first, that Newark
was presumed to be entirely under the con-
troll of the liquor men as Hoboken is; and
second, that it was the only triumph the
Democrats had achieved in charter elect
ion in the city in many years.
This Sunday morning the space of the
SUNDAY TATTLER, which has been demand
ed by the press of official advertising, is
at our command again and we have
resumed the publication of the piquant
little fctions from which many of our
readers derive deal of satisfaction. We
have heretofore given one page up to the
publication of selected matter. Next Sun
day morning, it will be at the service of
local contributors. Two Sundays ago, we
announced that we should be pleased to
print original stories prepared for us by
readers of literary turn of mind. We
have received three or four manuscripts,
and shall probably find place for one Of
them next Sunday. Meanwhile we desire to
announce that the story page of the paper
will be reserved for those story writers
among our readers who see fit to send us
contributions. There are countless young
ladies and gentlemen readers of the TArTLER
who have a fitness and fondness
for story writing; and it would
encourage them to higher fields to
see their stories in print. 1t is for their
benefit as much as to make the TArTLER
recognized organ for the exhibition Of
local literary talent, that we make the
proposition. If you, reader, think it worth
the effort to prepare story for publication
here, do not be afraid to send it to us
It will have careful and respectful read
ing and if it's merits justify we shall give
it place in our columns.
Since we called attention to the fact that
Andy Allbright's newspaper" organ down
in the Pines is itself cheat upon working
men because of its use of ready printed
paper, the Newark statesman has taken
the trouble to deny that he is responsible
for that tiavesty on journalism, We observe
in looking over our exchanges this week,
that the papers that have advertised him
as "Our candidate for Governor" are of
the same class with the sheet to which we
sslled attention. Without single excep-
ton, as far as our recollection serves us
now, they are all 'spatent inside" or s'pat-
emit outside" sheets. That is, instead of
paying the working men printers for set
ting up the type from which their prints
are made, their owners send over to New
York and buy lot of cheap metal plates
that cost little or nothing, and have the
largest part of their papers printed from
them. These plates are supplied TO very
many papers at the same time, and one
type setter in New York does the work that
should be divided among many printers in
this State. That is what we mean when
we say that they are cheats on the working
men of the State. The fact that they are
the only class of papers that are booming
Andy Albright as the working mans can
didste, shows how little real regard for the
working mans interest really inspires his
movement.
In pursuance Of our policy of letting all
sides be known we give our correspondent
So. F. n" full swing in the local political
field in this mornings issue. It is the re-
view of well-posted politician from his
point of observation. 1t is not in all res
spects the correct view, nor the only one
that can be presented, and we shall give
the situation further attention beforeth
conventions meet.
A prominent etymologist tells us that
the word sstowel" is evolved from s.King
Pepin. 1t seems impossible. but he de-
monstrates it thus: "King Pepin King
Pep-Pep Kin napkin-towel." But we
can give our learned friend stranger case
still. The Chief Of Police Of North Bergen
is named vatchie. The people soon
changed that to watchkey, and now the
Chief is called stemwinder.
The unsophisticated verdancy of the
county girl, who, knowing nothing of the
wickedness of the world, believes every
promise that is made to her and trusts
every man that she meets, was well Illus
trated in the story of the Richey girl She
met stranger in Carlisle, Pa, who fiat
