The Republican Bosses sneaking
Allies.

We see our old friend, Judge
Rankin, hobs up serenely as fake can
didate for Surrogate, and we wonder
once again how much these Jeffer-
sonians get from the Republican lead
ers for trying to stab their own alleged
party in the back. OF course, they
will get no sort OF recognition from
the County Clerk as a political
party, and they certainly cannot get
enough Democratic signatures to file
a petition of nomination. Even if all
the political bric-a-brac in the county
is got together, we do not thiuk a
sufficient number of independent
names can be collected. Il then a
petition is actua lily filed, the fact
viii be very clear that the sigma
lures are furnished by the Republican
party. and certainly that will not be
done without motive.
We believe the objective point oil
the Republican party in this campaign
is the Assembly. The scheme, so far
as this county is concerned, is to grab
for the districts in which the esti-
mated Democratic majority is small,
and to try to overcome it by drawing
of some votes to fake independent
candidate.
There is little danger to be appre-
hended SO long as candidates are
nominated by the Democracy who
will command the public confidence,
a sound Democrat of good repute is
sure Of election in a Democratic dis
trict General abuse OF the party,
loose attacks on its leaders and posi-
norton criticism Of the last Legis-
]ature will not alter the result. But

Of nominating bad men, il it gives
dead issues new life by forcing men

iican party may have its effect,

Another Boon ID Theatre Goers

Another Boon to Theatre Goers
This fall ought long TO be notable
one in Jersey City for the public
spirited enterprises that are being
begun. The opening OF Mr.. Linn's
new and beautiful hotel, with its well
appointed restaurant and cafe, is a
piece OF practical logic, following
upon the opening of Mnllone's Opera
House and the great improvement in
the tone of the Academy.
Heretofore, theatre going has been
rather more a labor than a pleas :
ure to Jersey City people, and in pro-
portion to the population there has
been less of it than in any other city
we know Of 1t is certainly not be-
cause our people are slow, or averse to
amusement. The record of each
weeks social entertainment during
the winter suffices to show that they
believe in extracting all the pleasure
they can out of life. But the long
journey to New York, the. impossi-
bility for the masculine members to go
home from business to dress, then the
multiplicity OF conveyances, the
delays, the changes, the hurry to
make connections, and the slowness
and discomfort OF the means of travel,
have been worse than discouraging.
So theatre outings have been few and
far between.
Now when it is possible to see a first
class play at either theatre in Jersey
City, and then drop around to Linns
and get good supper at fair price,
served in a style OF refinement equal
to any New York cafe, We have no
doubt theatre parties and theatre
going will become regular feature of
the city's social life. A great deal of
money will thus be kept in Jersey
City, every year.

The Newark EUe5lisag Net0s, with
ehara cteristic enterprise. published
on Friday an exhaustive description
of Newarlk's new water works. 1t
showed their extent and pres
ent state of completion, and
dwelt with pardonable pride on the
fact that in few weeks Newark
would have d water supply inferior in
purity and sufiiciency to none in the
country.
Newark is doubtless to be greatly
congratulated on this acquisition. A
good water supply is an important
element both in the happiness and
prosperity of a city. Newark will
not only increase the health and
comfort of her present residents, but
will also bring hosts of new inhabi-
tants to her fold.
But there is such a thing as paying
too dear for ones whistle The E0e7s-
ing Neaos is discreetly silent regard
ing the enormous price that the city
has paid the Lehigh Valley Rail
way Company. The NesoS realizes that
the harm is done, the robbery is con-
summated beyond remedy, and it
does not think it wise to discount the
present iubilation by dragging into
the light again the rottenness which
itself inveighed against, before it ex-
periencea a change of heart at a GER
tain stage of the water discussion.
Newark is paying for her new water
supply So, 600. 600. Exactly the same
advantages were on sale, some years
ago, to any city, for So, 000, 900. Com
petent engineers believe that if the
city had acquired the water rights
and the lands necessary for storage,
and had then built her own reservoirs
and laid her own conduits. she could
have had just the same supply and
just the same plant for something less
than $4,000 goo.
We are eager to see Jersey City pro-
vided with new water supply. We
peiiefe Lie grown anu prosperity Vi
the city are retarded by the present
atrocious fluid that is furnished to the
citizens. But we hope that the new
supply may be long delayed if it can
only be secured through the whole
sale robbery of the taxpayers. We
wish Newark much joy of her bar
gain: but when it comes TO our turn
we win try to reconcile economy and
honesty with progress and improve
ment.

SOME one notes, as remarkable
fact, that Boulanger did not mention
his wife's name in his will. Seeing
that Boulanger had nothing to be-
queath that was not given him by
Nine. de Bonnemain, his mistress, and
very little of that, any mention of his
wife in document conveying his
estate would have been adding insult
to injury.
