District.
The Police ana the Soups.

RA0 ON@IN
The continued presence of the soups
at the Mara Foundry after the expose
made in The JERSEY CITY News for
several days past is an insult to the
decency of this community, and a
serious reflection upon the efficiency
of the police. Chief of Police Murphy,
in an interview printed elsewhere in
today's paper. excuses himself from
driving the nest of vice out OF the
city, as he once drove it from the
vicinity Of St. Bridget's Church, Oh
the ground that no complaint has
been made against it in its new
quarters.
Will the Chief stand by and see the
knife plunged into a victim before he
actsg Every hour of the day and
every day of the week the police make
arrests ION view" Scarcely a week
passes when an officer of the depart
ment, who has informed himself of the
facts, is not instructed by the Chief to
make the formal complaint necessary
to hold a suspected man, or to prevent
a threatened danger.
Here is a place that the Chief him
self admits is a menace to the young
Of the community. He knows that
children are debauched there. Only
a few days ago a little girl appeared in
the police court over the Chiefs Office
to tell a story of shame she had suf-
fered there. Why is it that he per-
mits the sin to go on2
The Chiefs assurance that he has
sent a man there to make an investi-
cation and that his man has not pro-
duced sufficient evidence to justify
him in proceeding is something that
needs further explanation. Is the man
blind that he has been unable to see
what every one else has seen? Or is the
Chief Over-exacting as to the quantity
and character Of the proofs he re-
quires? Why does he not consult the
policemen on post thereabouts9
1t looks as though the Chief were
splitting hairs to explain the failure
of the Department to do that which
it should have done.

affair. Anything to beat the Effel

Republican cities Of the State. Re
publican councils have all along held,
as Judge Knapp ruled yesterday, that
the clerk is not a member of the
Election Board, and have given the
Democrats just the recognition that
the Jersey City Aldermen have ac-
corded to the Republicans-except
that the Republicans have selected
the Democrats as well as their Owl
men instead OF, as was done here, al
lowing the Democrats to choose their

Different

Manners are often worst in the most
industrious and advanced parts of the
country. In the highlands of Scot
land, where industrious civilization is
almost unknown, popular manners are
excellent; in some parts OF the low
lands they are rude, repellent and I'M
sympathetic. The best English man
ners are to be found in certain rural
districts, the worst in thriving and
energetic Lancashire. Too much en-
ergy is unfavorable to the best be-
havior, which grows to perfection
among idlers, or in agricultural and
pastoral communities, where folks
work in d leisurely fashion and have
many spare moments on their hands.
Manners always represent an ideal OF
some kind. The English way of be-
havior seems to stand for dignity, the
French for grace. Manners in both
countries are more the representation
of self in outward form than any evil
dence of real consideration for the
person to whom they are addressed,
The Englishman wishes to convey the
idea that he himself has dignity, that
he is a gentleman; the F'renchman is
anxious to show that he is a witty and
accomplished man of the world. \ x \
The virtues of English behavior are
chiefly of a negative kind, and those
of French behavior positive. An Eng
lishman is pleasant because he is not
noisy, not troublesome, not obtrusive,
not contradictory, and because he has
the tact to avoid conversational pit
falls and precipices. The Frenchman
is agreeable because he is lively, is
amusing, is amiable, is successful in
the battle against dizziness, and will
take trouble to make conversation in
teresting.-French and EngJiSb-GSl-
bert H0meaton.
