MARKSMEN AND FISHERS.

The weather last week was not conduc-
i've to angling. The wind came out of the
east steadily for three days and brought
with it either a fine drizzle or decided
downpour. The east wind is proverbially
bad for fishing, either in fresh or salt
water, and ia the latter on the Atlantic
coast 1t generally raises such a disturb
ance that only the hardest angler would
care to tempt its force.
There was fair weakfishing on Sunday,
Monday and Tuesday in Staten Island
waters, and announcement was held out
that the best sport OF the year would en-
sue, but the easterly storm knocked all
calculations endwise. The best catch
made on any of the three days was that
of Charles Il. Enderliu on Monday. He
caught eighteen fish weighing twenty
three pounds, using crab bait and fishing
on slack low water Some good catches
were made at Perth Ambey on Sunday.

porgies are being caught In Raritan Bay

The "News' Goes UP as the Ring
Goes Down.

Goes Down.
The growing popularity of this pa
per is a thing that comes to our ears
every day. It is natural that we
should take an honest pride in
our success. We believe it is the
result Of independence, good business
methods, and the bright, interesting
work Of the members of the staff,
every one of whom takes a personal
interest in the progress OF the paper.
Every day brings new readers and
new business connections.
1t is often hard to stand up for con-
victions in the face of seeming i'm
possibilities. 1t was always our effort
to down the Ring. We were told by
friends and enemies that it was inn
possible. We did not believe it
was impossible, and we fought.
As result, 0restes Cleveland is
political corpse and Bob Davis has one
foot i'll the grave. The other foot
will be put in for him soon, and then
they viii both be covered with the
good clean earth Of forgetfulness.
In our judgment Of public men we
have tried to be just. We believe in
the principles of the Democratic
party, but we believe first In the ad-
ministration of public affairs by hon.
est men. We believe in getting the
news, all the news, and presenting il
honestly. Leta newspaper gain a rep
utation for unreliability and its
owners might as well sell the
press and type for old metal. The
public confidence in our statements
is the result Of experience of their
trustworthiness
The tending of this paper has been
steadily upwards and It is, we trust,
pardonable if We occasionally express
our pride and satisfaction. During
this campaign we shall be to the front
for honest men and the downfall of
the Davis ring.

Tie County Machine-A Revelation.
We print on our leading page today
full list Of the Democratic County
Committee, with their addresses, and
their business or occupations, politi-
cal and other.
It is strange record, and the
strangest thing about it is that never
before has it been published in this
city. Il is not too much to
say that only the vaguest impress
sions exist in the minds of citizens,
even OF those who take an interest in
politics, rs to who the members of this
committee are. Every one knows, OF
course, that Mr.. Davis, Mr.. O'Donnell,
Mr. Mclaughlin and a few 9th er
noted men are members; but, beyond
this, they know nothing of it. No
body knows who the great body Of
the members are, and nine people
out Of ten think the great Democrats
of the connty-Abbett, McDermott,
Bedle, Garretson, Edge, Stevens, Nc
Adoo, Mcdonald. Young, and such
like-are members of this body. The
people holding such notions will be
amazed at the actual list. Careful
perusal Of it will prove highly in
structiye.
Will the revelation OF its component
parts benefit the county machineg
That is not our affair. 1t is the af-
fair of the committeeman and those
who made them committeeman.
These have for years been substan-
TALLY the rulers of Hudson county.
They still assume to maintain their
rule. 1t is fair that the people should
know who their rulers are.
If they like the array, we have not
a word to oppose to the peoples will.
II they do not like it, they will have
their remedy next November.

The conference will consist of 500 delegates;
300 OF them representing churches in the

THF LAFAYETTE MONUMENT.

Moving the Pedestal From the Old to the
New Site.
Transient public attention is being directed
very generally just now to the southeast cor
ner Of Lafayette Square, where gang of work
men is now engaged in filing large hole with
granite and cement on which to stand the
monument erected to the memory of the man
whose name is borne by the park. When it be-
came known, through the annual report of Sec
rotary Proctor, that the monument commission
had finally selected this site, there was a little
surprise on the part of the people who remem-
bered that Senator Bate had been instrumental
in spelling the first plan of putting the monu-
ment between Jackson and the White House,
but now that the hole has been dug, the great
elms razed and the Senator has said that he
has really no objections, there is feeling that
the site is a very good one. The work of build
ing the pedestal will probably take another
month, ana it will be we'll along in 1891 before
the monument is unveiled.
REMOVING THE OLD PEDESTAL.
There is going on, in connection with the
preparation of the new site, a very interesting
and delicate piece Of work that has attracted
an unusual amount of notice. This is the dem
clifton of the old pedestal that was erected in
the center of the south side of the square and
the transfer Of the stones composing it, intact,
to the new site. The work on the first pedestal
was well DONE In fact, it is being discovered
now that it was all too well done. The stones
and the cement seem to have become eternally
welded, so hard has it been to separate them
without injuring the fine edges of the granite
blocks. The work has been done with eX-
IRENE care and, 80 far. with perfect success. A
series OF holes were drilled into the center bed
of cement, which was then removed, and der
rick was erected by the side Of the pedestal,
by means OF which the stones are now beng
cautiously pried out Of their beds and laid on
the sidewalks, numbered, SO that they can be
replaced with accuracy.
The new site is to be diagonal one the
monument facing southeast. This will throw
1t into strong relief when viewed from al
most any point on the three streets that corner
north of the Treasury. The walk that extends
diasonally through the park is to divide at the
southeast corner and 60 on both sides of the
monument The new pedestal will be square,
like the old one, and the walks will therefore
be rectangular.
