still Another Beat.

Yesterday THE JERSEY CITY NEWS
registered another big beat on its sole
competitor in the local field. All
the city talked last night about our
very amusing account of the trial IN
the Coney-Harney divorce suit, and
marvelIed at the blindness to news
which prompted our only competitor
to dismiss the ease in ten lines.
In greater or less things, the same
experience is repeated daily. THE
JERSEY CITY NEWS seldom appears
without one or more articles of local
or great general interest which its
s'rival' leaves its readers wholly in ig-
norance of.
That this fact is appreciated by the
public is shown by the rapidly grow
ing circulation of THE JERSEY CRY
NEWS, by the constant allusion to its
articles and reports which one hears n
conversation, and by the frequent
selection of matter from it's columns by
the various papers throughout the
State. The fearless and independent
democracy of the paper aids in en-
phazing in the public mind it's high
qualities as the organ of the people at
large and their interests.
The management of THE JERSEY
Cry NEWS will be much disappointed
should they fail to make it within a
very few months the acknowledged
leading paper of this city. They feel
justified in claiming that it is so
already in its news presentation and
editorial tone, and the present indica-
<ions assuredly are that the dominant
circulation and influence which are
the second essential element are
already within easy grasp.

In is sad to learn that Jerseymen
are the real cause of the market scam
dial in New York, which is causing
the exile of SO many estimable citi-
zens. Wicked men from this State
went across the river. got up a corner
in stalls in the old Washington a
ket, and sublet them to New Workers
at a big profit. Comptroller Myers
tried to prevent this in the new mar
ket, but all he succeeded in doing
seems to have been to transfer the
headquarters of the cornerers from
New Jersey to his W Office.
