aud offensive conduct generally are an
nuisance to the neiglfborhood.
It is hard to believe that the officers
do not know of the existence of tho

see why they do not close it. 1t will
be the scene of a bloody tragedy some
night if they let it go on long enough.
A smart detective could easily get all
the evidence he wanted against it
from the windows of a neighboring

be needed beyond the material that

NEW PUBLICATIONS
"rhe Forumn for Jnne.

ne EOEuiu.f Aor - un6.
The subjects that have had the greatest
share of attention from thoughtful men
for the past month have undoubtedly been
Immigration, Our Currency, the Case of
the Rev. DR.. Briggs, and the International
Copyright Law, which will go into effect
july l. The July number Of The Forum
contains discussions of all these subjects.
The Rev Dr. Briggs himself contributes
q criticism of the churches for insisting
on non-essential parts of their creeds.
Ex-Cougressman William McAdoo of
New York points out the intimate rela-
tion between immigration and the tariff,
making an argument to show how by the
exclusion of foreign goods and by the
free admission of foreign workmen
we play into the hands of other
Dations- Senator William NJ. Stewart
of Nevada considers silver coinage with
reference 10 the need OF more money and
makes the strongest statement perhaps
that has anywhere appeared ON the side
of those who favor the free coinage of
silver.
This question is considered still further
ia a new department. OF The Forum,
which this month contains series of
financial articles-one, discussion of
our gold export by Mr. Joel Cook. the
financial editor of the Philndelp plstd
Ledger; another, statements about
Western Lands and Mortgages by
Mr.. James Willis Gleed Of Kansas;
and the third, the Outlook
for Southern Investments by Mr.
John l.. Williams. of Richmond, Va.
Col Theodore A. Dodge, who is perhaps
our foremost military writer, has an es-
say reviewing the career of Won Mo.tke
and its bearing on the warfare OF the
future Sir Charles w. Dixie explains
the rise and the political importance of
the New Australian Commonwealth.
: General Francis A. Walker discusses the
accuracy Of the Census Of $780, particular
~ in the great cities; and Mr.. Henry
Holt makes forecast of our international
copyright law.

The True Meaning Of Memorial Day

The True Meaning of Memorial Day.
Providence smiled on Memorial

ans passed through the streets. It
was day of rest and peace. Every
thing Joined in bearing witness that
all The old bitterness had passed away
the spirit of battle and the pride Of
victory and nothing remained but a
tranquil sense OF duty heroically done.
and the eternal principles of liberty
and nationality established for all
time.
The Memorial Day festival is Sec
ond in dignity and beauty only to
the great celebration OF the National
independence. If we devote the best
Of our holidays to the genius of
political liberty, proclaimed to the
world by the fathers of our country,
It is certainly fitting that the next
colnmeinoration should be OF the valor
and worth which defended that lib
arty in troublous councils and on
bloody fields.
Every year the Memorial Day OBJ
servance, we believe, is becoming of
deeper significance to the people. Its
connection with the Civil War is be-
coming less and less accentuated, and
1t is gaining a new aud nobler rank as
the day dedicated to the heroes of the

This is the true future OF the Ne

The police OF Jersey City are, in the
main, a splendid body of men, and
they were seen to fine advantage yes
terday as they paraded the streets.
Under the present able and efficient
management the force has become the
equal Of any in the country in disci-
pline, vigilance and esprit de corps.
The city is well guarded crime is less
frequent than ever before life and
property is as safe as in any city we
know of. and the presence of the
owdy element on the street corners
is steadily decreasing.
or course the force is not perfect.
Here and there may be black sheep.
Now and again an error may be made.
But abuses have been reduced pretty
nearly to the minimum that human
nature allows, and such as exist are
more than offset by excellent services
rendered.
President Feeney and his fellow
commissioners may well feel gratifed
at the work they have done since they
came into office.

The Llbrary opening Tomorrow.

The Library Opening Tomorrow.
The Free Public Library will be
opened to the citizens tomorrow, and
we expect, the great general in
terest in the institution will be
shown at once by the number of in
tending readers who will register their
names and obtain tickets.
It is well to make one or two points
clear to every one.
In the first place the reading room,
which contains a splendid assortment
of magazines and newspapers, will be
open to every one. Access to stand
ard works of reference is equally un-
restricted.
Secondly, books may be taken from
the Library for home reading without
any cost whatever so long as the rules
are not violated.
Third, to avail oneself of this
privilege it is only necessary to OBJ
tain, and fill out a card of application
such as are furnished by the Library
officials, and secure the endorsement
OF some reputable citizen, certifying
that the applicant is resident of the
city and proper person to be en-
trusted with the books of the
Library.
That is all there is to do. There is
no red tape. no great delay. no ex-
pense, and no trouble You file your
application and in few days, when
your reference is verified, you can
draw out any book that the Library
possesses.
1t is to be hoped that in their treat
ment of the books, all borrowers will
show their appreciation of the great
boon conferred on them by the great
care with which they handle
the precious volumes. 1t is
the duty of every reader to re-
member that when he has taken his
share of pleasure from a book there
are thousands TO come after him, and
any injury or mutilation that he
may be guilty of must detract in some
degree from the satisfaction of all
succeeding readers. Apart from the
fact that they are public property,
the books are entitled to GER
tain respect on their own account,
and it is a proof Of refinement and
thought in man or woman to render
them a certain veneration.
We hope to see the Library used by
our citizens in tens Of thousands, and
that their manner of using it will dc
them honor.

NORTH DAKOTA A


What the Census Bureau Says of an Inn
portant State Industry.
WASHINGTON, March 24.-The census
bulletin No. 43, contains statistics of
Of the coal products west of the Missis-
sippi. Concerning North and South
Dakota the report says:
"Ascertainel coal areas of these states
lie in western counties between the line
drawn from the Turtle mountains in the
north, through Burleigh county, to the
southern border of the Black Hills, and
the western boundary line. The princi-
i!ai developments have been made along
the line of the Northern Pacific railway
at Bismarck and westward at points
along the Missouri river as far north as
Fort Stevenson and also in the vicinity
of Hay Greek, in the Black Hills. The
product is a fair grade of Ignite or
brown coal, suitable for heating OF
steam, and in some localities it is found
to be adapted for the production of gas.
The seams vary in thickness from a few
inches to twelve feet.
1.-THE absence of transportation facili-
ties has hitherto retarded development
of the coal mining industry, but, under
new cOndlClOnS OF %StatehOOd, increasing
demands will encourage railroad con-
struction and stimulate more intelligent
prosecution of mining operations. The
best authorities upon the subject look
forward to a neal future when the de-
mands for fuel in these new and rap
idly developing states will he readily
supplied within their own borders.
mo coal mining operations were re-
ported by the tenth census for Dakota.
The reports of production as published
by the United States geological survey
in years past have been mainly esti-
mated. The output of all the mines of
North and South Dakota during the
calendar year 1899 was 2S,9O7 short
tons, of which 1922 tons We're from
ranchmen's diggings and local mines.

more. The people of Italy are poor, the

way the county is in no condition to
make war on a power like the United
States.
