That Newark Board of Works Bill.
In opposing the Newark Board of
Works bin, the Hudson members, it
is to be hoped, will keep the merits of
the measure as wella its faults clearly
In view That they should oppose it
down to certain point is certain, but
it is equally sure that the only objec-
ton to it is in its applicability to this
city and that the system it proposes
is just what Newark wants.
The people of Jersey City assured
~ do not want the City Govern
ment changed in the direction of in
definitely extending the powers Of the
Street and Water Board. That body
has already all the functions that it is
considered safe or profitable to place
in its hands. It is not desira-
BILE that the power to enact or
dinances should be transferred
to it, nor is it wise or right to place in
its hands the granting of franchises,
the control of the use of the streets or
various other important functions
now exercised by the Board of Alder
men and the Police Department All
these duties and faculties are very
iudiciously divided by our present
system, and the people are in general
very well satisfied with existing ar
rangements.
Therefore, since these changes
would result from the passage of the
bill in its present shape, it is the duty
of the Hudson members of Assembly
to oppose it with all their might un-
til it is so amended that Jersey City
viii be exempt from its operation, if
such an exemption is possible,
But, Jersey City being once ex-
elnpted, all Democrats should aid in
the passage of the bill, for in its APP
plication to Newark it is sound and
right. That city has been so gerry
wandered by the Republican party
that in spite of its solid Democratic
majority of z, 600 votes. the entire adj
ministration of its affairs is in the
hands Of Republicans through the
control of the Board of Alder
men by that party. This is
violation Of the principles OF
rule by popular majority which ought
not only be checked but even pun
fshed, and there is every reason, both
in morals and politics, why the Legis-
lature should reform the government
Of Newark by depriving the Republic
can Aldermen of their ill-gained
power.
The difficulty of the stu alton is
understood to consist in the practical
impossibility of passing a law which
willapply to one first class city withou
affecting the other. This difficulty,
it seems to us, is more imagin-
airy than real 1t was easily
met two years ago when Jersey City
was given new charter, Newark be-
ing left as she was. Why not accom-
plish Newark's revolution now in the
same way. Pass the Board of Works
bill with clause by which Mayor
Haynes can submit the matter to a
popular vote at the next charter cleo
ton, and doubtless the Democratic
majority Of Newark will ratify the
new scheme. If it will not, why
assuredly the scheme ought not to go
through. This plan will suit Jersey
City clean down to the ground, and
will secure for the bill the undivided
support of the eight Hudson Demo
Gratis.
Let Mr.. Hardin and his coll eagues
try it and see how it works.

Or He Might Ween.

A professor named Myers, from
Frankfort, N. Y, has got an appro-
priation from Congress to enable him
to try scheme for compelling a rain
fall in arid regions. He will do it by
sending up balloons containing ex-
plosive substances with which to pro-
duce conclusions in the upper air.
This looks reasonable. We would
suggest that the first balloon should
contain Horace Schermerhorn, who,
when he arrives at the proper height,
will express his feelings on the recent
redistricting business. If the con-
cussion isn't violent enough, it will be
little use to try dynamite. The bal
loon should be filed before the Legis-
lature adjourns, while gas is cheap.
1t is the duty Of New Jersey to adj
vance the march of discovery.
THE fact that the State Prison is so
deplorably overcrowded that it has
become necessary to put two prison
ers in some of the cells is in itself a
sufficient argument for building a
new prison. 1t does not appear that
this condition is transitory 1t means
simply that in the natural growth
of the State the criminal population
has grown too. Relief can be much
better obtained by establishing re-
forlnatory institution than by any
enlargement of the present prisons
capacity. The plan Of the State Com
mission seems a good one, and the
necessary authorization should be
given before the Legislature adjourns.
AS a means of hardening and perpet-
uating criminal instincts there is
nothing like crowded prison.
If the mob that murdered prisoners
in the New Orleans Jail had killed
every criminal in the city the spec
tacle of its lawlessness would have
raised up two for every one that had
been slaughtered. The evil influence
of mob oyerpowers any good that it
can possibly do.
THE Kings Daughters will make an
effort to prevent the closing of the
dispensary on Oakland avenue. They
should meet with prompt assistance.
Although two Of the physicians who
have conducted the dispensary SO adj
mirably now feel that they must re-
tire, it will not be impossible to find
successors. THE JERSEY Cry NEWS
has shown the usefulness OF the insti-
tuition 1t would be pity to have it
given up.
