THE NEW BO.IRDS.


When They VIII Organize-some Points
About Them.
The new Mayor will lake the oath of
Office aad assume the Chief Magistracy of
the city on the first Monday of May. The
new Board of A'derm N will meet and or
ganize at the same hour. They have the
selection of City Clerk an of City
Marshal. City Clerk SCOTS mary years of
faithful and intelligent service ara all the
he wants, and he will be
reelected by the voice of both parties. Tim
Long will, doubtless, be re.appoinied City
Marshal The Police and Fire Boards AID
Board OF Works will meet to organize en-
Monday Of next week. It is likely that the
tie in the Police Board will enable "Gil
Robinson to retain the clerkship. The
Firs B)aid will probably elect new clerk.
Tbs Board of Works will be satisfied with
Tom Jacob, though there will be competi-
ton for the place. The Board of Free
holders will organize the first Tuesday in
May. The Board will stand Democrats,
10; Republicans, 0, and Schinzel, Inde-
pendent Joseph NJ. Noonan will likely
succeed himself as Clerk of tie Board,
though there will be lively competition for
his position. John A. McGrath is after
the Counselship to the Board. He is
G ing on the assumption that Job H Lip
pincotts appointment to the United States
District Attorneyship will put him out of
the race. Mr. L'ppincott may, however,
conclude that he can hold both offices, and
then Mr.. McGrath will have 10 fight hard
to get the place. The Jailorship win not
become vacant till next year, but there is
already lively competition on hand for
the successorship. Ex-Assemblyman
James G. Clarke is after the position tooth
and nail. Patrick Sheeran is giving him
hard chase for it, After all it may go to a
Republican. Then ex-County Clerk Van
Horn will win it.

a HAN OF Liberal IDEAS.

The New Minister who is Expected to Fill
the Tabernacle Pulpit.
Rev. John L. Scudder, the eloquent
young Congregational minister. to whom
the Tabernacle congregation have extended
a call, seems from sermon he delivered
last Sunday, to be man of much more
liberal Judgment than the gentleman who
has Just left it. His topic was the Theatre.
sgTo-day," he said, ssthe stage is per-
manent and prodigious factor in our civili-
cation, and is regarded by many as posi-
tive necessity to Offset and relieve the
wear and tear of modern life. Thirty
thousand people attend the theatre IN
New York city every evening, and pay out
annually for dramatic entertainments over
100000. One reason why the theatre
finds such liberal patronage in this age is
because business life is so intense People
go to the theatre to forget their cares and
worrfments, to be anu ed, renovated and
cheered, and this is essentially the Office of
the theatre. Its business is to entertain
and enliveD, to provide vent for pent-up
spirits, to unstrap mems burdens, and give
them an opportunity to take breath and
.straighten up. In these days there is little
use in trying to talk the theatre out of ex-
istence, or telling the people they must not
attend. They will go in spite of the clergy.
Already 25per cent. of our church members
can be found in the play house, and this
notwithstanding the pulpit has been storm
ing against the stage from time immem-
orial"
The members of Mr.. Scudder's church
ia Minneapolis are much opposed to his
leaving.
1t is hoped, however, he will accept the
call.

The defeat OF the Morris and Essex
Railroad tax bill by the Assembly was an
outrage upon decency. No man who
opposes bill that puts the State in posi-
ton to find out If she has been cheated
and to recover the amount out OF which
she may have been cheated, can offer any
adequate excuse for his vote to an honest
constituency. In his annual message
Governor Albeit expressed his suspicious
as to the honesty of that corporations re-
turns, to the State, Of the property town
ed that was subject to taxation. Mr. Cor
bin, speaking of the bill the other evening,
stated that while cost which was taxable,
had been returned in 1870 at $50 900, 000, it
was returned year later at $4,000, 900.
The item of cost can only increase from
year 10 year. It's fixed figure that sub
sequent acquisitions OF property can only
enlarge The Morris and Essex is Ger
tainly growing and reaching out and ex-
tending. Every new mile it built must
have added to the value of Its taxable pos.
sessions. But the State. at, the time OF
the palpably false return of 1871, had no
means of exposing its deception. The
moment the Legislature, by passing the
General Railroad Tax Act, gave the State
power to ascertain for itself the correct
ness OF the Company's returns. $1O,000,-
600 that had been charged up to equip
menu and other non-taxable accounts
fell out of 1t. and, in the company's own
return, was replaced In the taxable '.cost"
account The com7any's spouiers on the
floor expressed their Indignation at the
suspicion the pending bill cast upon the
integrity of the company's officers. The
bill Is, as matter of fact, but an out
growth of the suspicion that tho figures
Mr.. Corbin supplied the other evening
aroused against them. They are enough
to put the Commonwealth on the enquiry.
The defeat OF the bill will not probably
stand in the way, however, Of future In
vestigation. There may be enough law
on the statute books already to enable the
States officers to probe this transparent
fraud to the bottom, to expose it to public
view, and TO force restitution.

The placing of the control OF the Fire
Board in the hands of the Democrats was
wise popular move. The result of the
election, as far as the Police Board is con-
cerned, is in the right line. too, but 1t
doesn't go far enough. The Board is non
partisan in the sense that there are three
Democrats and three Republicans in it,
but that's as far as its non partisanshlp ex-
tends. The three Republican Commits
sioners may be expected to stand TO the
protection of the ipcompetents with whom
the Republicans have filled the force, and
all efforts to dsplace them on whatever
charges will be found as profitless 10 the
future as they have been in the past. The
tie defers reform for year, The next
election will probably put the Democrats
in full control Of the Departments.
