SETTLING UP.
Discussions and Reports Among Repub-
lican Politicians.

Senator w. w. Bowers, the Republi-
can nominee for congress in this dis
trict, returned yesterday to his home at
San Diego to recuperate for the cam
paign, While in this city the senator
had very busy time. He was called
upon by all of the various ward heelers,
and the demands that were made upon
him were caution. However, Mr.. Bowers
confronted the situation in noble man
ner. By keen and sagacious manage
ment, such as he only possesses, every
body went away apparently satisfied
and there we're no outward breaks.
But with some of the former delegates
who supported Mr.. Lindley in the con-
ventions it was different. All evidently
was not satisfactory, to Judge from the
numerous consultations that were held
between the ex-delegates. Unless set
tlement is arrived at within few days,
some interesting disclosures will prob
ably be made concerning the inside work
of the Fresno and Ventura conventions.

A LEATHER STRAP
On Boys Back Produces a Family
lar.

Charles Story is a hard working,
respected resident of Thirty-seventh
street, who few days ago had occasion
to correct his sixteen year old son in
the good old-fashioned way with a
leather strap. Mrs. Story objected and
entered the room while the strap was
being properly applied ,and attempted to
interfere. Mr.. Story demonstrated with
her, and at last placed her outside of the
door and proceeded with his operation
Mrs. Story got very angry and swore out
a complaint against her husband, charg-
ing him with battery. Officer Huston
arrested him last night, but on deposit
ing 500 cash bail he was released. Mr..
Story has good reputation, and few
believe that the charge against him is
based on facts,

About forty or fifty old soldiers and

some skillful management, the explana-

his connection with the Soldiers home

The Purity Paragon Opposes the Third
District Sewer Bill.
Special to the Jersey City Neius.
TRENTON, April 2, 1S9O.-That white
robed champion of moral ideas and down
trodden corporations, Senator Gardner,
of Atlantic, has been gawping over Mr..
Murphy's bill, which provides for the con
tinuation of the Third district sewers
across Harsimus Cove. This bill enacts
that in all incorporated cities of this
State, wherein sewers are constructed
which empty into tide-waters, and
the outlets of such sewers are closed or
rendered useless by the filling in of land
granted by the State to private corpora
tions, the municipal authorities shall
nave power, and it shall be lawful for
them TO construct, or cause to be con-
structed, sewers, in continuation of
previously constructed sewers, through
The lands of such private corporations TO
tide water. and to assess for benefits the
property of such corporation whenever,
in the Judgment of the commissioners of
assessment or other similar authority
possessing like powers, the property OF
such private corporation is benefited
thereby.
This bill passed the House and coming
over to the Senate was referred TO the
Committee on Riparian Rights, consist
ing of Senators Fowler, Gardner and
Adrain.
The committee held the bill for several
weeks and refused to report it. This
morning Mr.. Murphy went to Senator
Gardner and asked him to use his in
fiuence to have it reported. The great
conservator of the purity of the ballot
loudly declared that the railroads were
taxed enough and that the bill should
not be reported with his vote.
This probably kills the bill. 1t does
not seem to make any difference to
the paragon of political virtue from the
sand hills whether the people of Jersey
City are dying from diseases caused by
these choked up sewers. The railroad COM
pany to his mind did not want the bill
and that settled it.
When Senator Mcdonald heard of this
his indignation knew no bounds. He de-
clared that the Pennsylvania railroad
was not opposed to the bill. He de-
nounced the man who would obstruct a
measure seeking to conserve the health
of the public by providing for good sew
ers. He also said hat he would
move to have the bill taken
from the committee, and if the boss of
the majority interfered he would find
there was some members of the Chamber
who could cope with him.
True to his word. the Senator from
Hudson made such O motion in the after
noon session, and much to his surprise it
went through without opposition.
Senator Mcdonald will do all in his
power to have the bill passed.

TWO STARTLING BILLS.
Mr. Marsh's Riparian Land and Cor.
pOratiOn Tax Measures
Are Daisies.
snecial to Ae Jerseu Gu Meus.

TRENTON, April 2, 1S90.-Mr. Marsh in
troduced a bill in the Assembly yesterday
which will interest those who own lands
under water in the flats between Con-
stable Hook and Robbins Reef. The
measure enacts that the Riparian Com
missioners, with the assent of the Cover
nor, may grant or lease any lands of the
State lying under water and in front Of
the interior line for solid filling or piers,
although in front OF and under water
heretofore granted or leased; and the
Commissioners. with the assent of the
Governor, may have power to tix the ex-
terror line for solid filling and the lines
for piers.
The object of the bill is to set at rest
the claim made by those owning the
riparian right along the shore, That the
State has no right to dispose of the land
in front of them. but that their grant en-
titles them to fill in out TO deep water.
There is a proviso, however, that there
shall be a deep water channel running in
front of the interior grants already made,
on the other side of which grants may be
made out TO the natural channel.
A BITTER LEGAL IGH
AS a prominent membersof the Assem-
bly, expressed 1t. there's millions in that
hole and the State proposes to get out OF
it all it cam Aboutthe first thing which
the State Will get if the bill becomes q
law will be a long, bitter legal contro-
yersy. The present riparian owners will
not relinquish their claims tosthe land to
deep water without a struggle, neither
will they accept any ditch snch as the bill
proposes as deep water, unless COM
nelled TO do so by the highest tripunalin
the land.
a SWEEPING TAX LAW.
MIR. Marsh introduced another Import
ant bill n the shape of an amendment to
the railroad taxation act, which provides
that every telegraph, telephone, cable
and express company in the State shall
pay a Tax of two per cent. of its gross re-
ceipts as returned to the State Board of
Assessors; each horse railroad company,
one-half of one per cent. upon its gross
1eceipts: each trust safe deposit or guar
anteeing company, and each State bank
ing company, one half of one
per cent. upon the amount Of
is safe deposit; each oil and pipe

line company eight-tenths of one per
e upon Its gross receipts; each insur-
ance company other than life, one per
cent. upon the gross amount of its pre-
miums; ZACH domestic life insurance
company a franchise tax of one per cent.
ing the time of payment of taxes and
four per interest; each
foreign life insurance company
two per cent. on the mount
Of premiums collected during the year
from residents of the State; each parlor,
palace or sleeping car company five per
cent. upon its gross receipts, and all
other corporations incorporated under the
laws of the State a yearly license fee or
tax of one-tenth of one per cent. on the
capital stock thereof. The penalty for
refussl to comply with the pro
visions of the act shall be for
feiture of articles of incorporation.
Another bill introduced by Mr.. Marsh
a~ppropriates 5000 for the geological
vey of the State and the establishment of
a geological museum at the State House.
Mr.. McCran e for the foreign deJec-
tive agencies by introducing q bill which
prohibits the appointment OF any nom
resident as q peace officer. Mr.. Usher
aimed a blow at the compulsory railroad
relief association with a measure, which
makes it unlawful for any corporation to
establish an insurance or relief depart
menu IOr tne employees Luer6OI, Dy WHICH
any portion of such employees wages may
be retained by such corporation.
U~NDEMOCRATIC TOWNS.
There are not many people in the State
aware of the fact that there are two town
ships in which no one can vote on town
ship affairs without possessing a certain
amount of real property. Such however
is the case. One of the townships Is in
Bergen and the other in Somerset
county. Senate Winton discovered this
undemocratic state of affairs and intro
duced a bill in the Senate which sought
to do away with the injustice and pro-
vided that any one entitled to vote at a
general election shall be entitled to vote
at q municipal or township election. The
bill passed the senate and came up in the
House yesterday afternoon on final pas
sage.
The only objection thesbill encountered
was from the leader of the Republicans,
Mr.. Voorhees,, who tried to excuse his
conduct ON the ground that the bill had
been made a caucu measure by the
Democrats. His followers, however, re-
fused to stand by him, and the Measure
passed.
The bill making q residence of ten con-
secutive years a legal residence, under
the Poor act, also passed. Chief Muir
phys bill TO require all professions to fur
nish him beforehand with the route they
propose to march over also passed.
