TRENTON, Feb. 10 1890. General Hep
penheimer wore white carnation in
his buttonhole, which was greatly ad-
mired by the ladies who crowded the gal

this evening. Just as the minister desig-
mated was about to offer prayer loud
crash at the Speakers left startled every
one. and upon looking in that direction
Mr.. Rabenstein. of Essex was seen found
ering on the floor. Comptroller Connolly,
of Newark, had removed the braces to his
chair, which caused the collapse of Mr..
Rabenstein's legislative dignity. The
occurrence so disconnected the timid
clergyman that he made rankest prayer
of the session.

A Newark Republican View of Jersey
City Politics.

City Politics.
From the Daily Aduertiser.
Hearings on the Ballot Reform bills
will begin in Trenton tomorrow. But il
is already given out that no ballot reform
law shall be enacted until after the
charter election in Jersey City next
April The Democratic ring must
!! not be disturbed Just at present.
"a big stake" is in view Prepa-
rations are being made to sell quantity
of city property, from which $500, 900 or
$400,0 900 is to be realized, and this amount
is to be invested in public works and
buildings for the city. A fine city hall
building is among the contemplated
improvements. and a bill now pending
in the Legislature invests the Mayor
with absolute power over the three Com
missioners who are to have nominal
charge of the work. Mayor Cleveland
hopes and expects to be re elected in
April. If he succeeds, he will virtually
above mentioned. But there is danger
that he could not be reelected if there
should be an honest election in Jersey
City. Therefore, a ballot reform bill must
not be passed now, as that might de-
feat the project to bring Mayor Cleveland
and the aforesaid $400, 900 in close juxta-
position. On the other hand. if the Jer-
sey City bill were to be SO amended that
the Mayor would have little or nothing
to do with spending the money, Mr..
Cleveland's reelection would seem less
desirable to him, and Ballot Reform
might be allowed to proceed
Mr. Davis to Think Favorably.
From the Erening Journal of Yesterday.
Mr. Charles S. Furst says
son the 18th of January several promi
nent Democrats approached me and
asked what thought of Sheriff Davis
as Mayor. With them / thought the
Sheriff would make an excellent candi-
date, as in every office he has filed he
has faithfully discharged the duties per-
tanning to the same. They asked me If
would approach the Sheriff and induce
him 60 accept the nomination. For sew
eral reasons they wanted me to do this.
Among the reasons given was the
fact that, as many of these Demo
Gratis were beneficiaries under the
they could hardly appear in the move
ment. Another was, this party of gentle
men said to me that they did not propose
to go into the campaign and force a can
didate on the Democratic party as had
been previously done. but they proposed
the Democratic party should be forced to
nominate candidate whom the majority
of the people wanted. LII, therefore.
would lend by aid to bring about this
state of things / could count upon the
active support of the democrats in carry
ing out the scheme. They said that just
as soon could prove satisfactorily that
Mr.. Davis would accept the nomination,
then just so soon would / receive the
solid aid of the Democratic party in q
body. have approached Mr.. Davis to
this end, but hitherto he has declined to
stand; but lately. in view of the influence
and power of those who wish him to ac-
cept, the Sheriff has promised to favor
where the matter stands,' said Mr.. Furst,
in closing the interview.

LATEST NEWS FROM THE CAPITAL,
Special TO the Jersey city Nese..

TRENTON, Feb 10, 1S90.-The sensation
this evening among the Hudson county
members was the disclosure made in THE
SUNDAY MORNING NEWS yesterday of the
large sized Ethiopian that turks in the bill
introduced into the Senate by Mr.. Nc
Donald, which politically places the con-
troll of the new City Hall Commissioners
in the hands of Mayor Cleveland. s.veto
and bounce" is a by word just now; and
everyone wonders why he didn't discover
the little joker before.
The upshot of the matter will be that
the veto and bounce" clause will be
stricken out of the bill in committee.
The bill is long one, and when Senator
Mcdonald gave every one who enquired
about it to understand that it merely cor
rected a defect in the bill of last year by
giving the commissioners power to con-
denim lands, every one was satisfied.
AT Mr.. CLEvELAND's REQUEST.
asked Senator Mcdonald about his
connection with the bill and he said:
II introduced the bill at the request of
Mayor Cleveland. He told me that it was
all right and that its passage was favored
by Democratic and Republican Senators
alike, and was for the best interest of the
city. Upon this representation of the
Mayor sub mitted the bill without read
ing any portion of it but the title. For
five cannot trust the Mayor of the city,
whom can we trust?
Il told the committee that ii there was
any opposition to the bill they should
carefully consider the objections. But
as no one made any protest against it, it
was passed by the Senate.
Mr.. Mcdonald, in the Senate, recalled
the bill for the purpose of having it
amended.
FINANCE BILL WITHDRAWN.
Mr.. Boyle had evidently heard some
thing drop. too. and he has read THE JRR-
sEY Cry NEWS with considerable profit
This evening he arose shortly after the
session opened and asked permission to
withdraw his bill which takes away from
the Board of Finance the power to concur
in the resolutions of the other city Boards.

TRENTON. Feb. 10, 1890. The best speech
which has been made In the House yet
this session was delivered by Mr.. Erwin
The prison mirror. [volume] (Stillwater, Minn.) 1887-1894, 1890-11-20
He Broke Into Jail.

My father was Sheriff of county in In
diana for good many years. and the Jail
he first took charge of was very
humble affair. The Jail proper was one
story addition of stone about twenty feet
square. and the two windows were defended
by heavy outside blinds in place of bars.
One night. returning home at a late hour,
my father noticed man working on the
outside of one of the windows. He had
piled up lot of wood for platform, and
had broken into blacksmith shop to get a
crOwbar. Father kept back and let him
work away, and by and by he got the blind
open and disappeared inside. There were
no prisoners in the jail, and the blind was
softly closed and fastened with prop.
When this had been done father went in
side, opened the door of the corridor, and
there stood his man. He looked around
him in dreamy way, but got it through
his head at last. and then he queried:
''This is the county Jail. isn't it?"
1T is"
''And Ive been fool enough to break into
it."
''You have.'
''That's all. Lock me up till morning.
and then let some jackass kick me to DEATH"
The fun of it was that he turned out to
be rObber with reward of 5000 OH his
head. and when he came to trial he got
sentence of fifteen years.-New York Sun.

which is produced by labor. they will control that
which produces it, that is.lxbor. Also look at our
iron mines controlled by trust. controlling not
only the price per of the in its crude state
but controlling the price of labor used in mining
and manufacturing it well. Also wheat
trusts pork trusts and sugar trusts; in fact at
the present time there is hardly anything that
comes into our living but has its syndicates and
trusts Even the farmer, 1.-THE most independent
of all men," at their mercy for they control the
price of his produce and hold him with relent-
less grip. Now we have seen that capital begets
capital. and capital will combine long the
world stands. What then is the remedy for this
evil? for such it has grown to be. The answer is
this: AS capital combines to protect itself and ad
vance its interests. SO labor must combine to pro-
tect it's interests and elevate ITSELF and by do
ing capital and labor will be able to meet on an
equal basis. and only when they so meet will we
have that harmonious development of all factors
necessary for the more perfect growth and de.

individual part c. W.K

away the money was gone, and seven of
these dupes were out,themoney they had de-
posted. AS soon asithe matter became pub
lie they hurried to pay up the full amount
of the license fees.f That is, they
paid into the Is city treasurer's
Office $500 which ] with Enoch's
$500 made the 81, 900 of the license fee. The
police commission at that time concluded
to be lenient with these business men and
allowed them 60 days more to pay the re-
naming $780, The 80 days have now ex-
pired and the commission wants to know
what the saloon keepers propose to DO. Two
of the seven delinquents have guaranteed
the payment of the remaining $500 by Mon
day, but there are still five to hear from and
it is still probable that some of them may
fight the matter in the courts. The matter
cannot be settled until the police commits

will be made by Supt. Brackett.
