WANTS EIGHTEEN MONTHS Alb ROUND.

From the Net1ark Neios.
Judge Lippincott, of Hudson county. Is
not one of those who hold that such di-
vinity hedges the bench as to make lay
criticism of its actions and d~eliverances a
scandal aud a crime. Replying In court
the otner day to Lay Judge Hoffmann's
attempted justification for his W vote
In favor of n%ine-nonth penitentiary SEN
teuces for ballot-box thieves and arraign-
ment of the practice of sentencing men
who waived their right of appeal to such
terms while those who refused to give mp
that right were sentenced to eighteen
months in the State Prison, Judge Lippin-
colt took occasion to refer to newspaper
criticism. This he did in words so ju-
dicious aud marked by such common
sense and good temper that they deserve
to be quoted and remembered.
And vet ever the admirable sentiment
and tone of this address does not answer
Law Judge Hoffman's argument or the
objections which the NeWs, alone among
the States newspapers. has made to
Judge Lippincott's alternative sentencing
of election thieves to nine months in the
penitentiary II they waived, and eighteen
months in State Prison IL they insisted on,
their rights. The right thing for those
Hudson County Judges to do would pe to

wishes of lawyers and CLIENTS for
their W good. 1t is only necessary
to observe that he absolutely ignores
the three daily papers published in
the County, and inserts his notices in
all sorts of small local sheets with linn
tied circulation and less influence, to
convince the impartial mind that he
is grossly Internationally ii not
legally-in performing this part of
his duty. So long as the Argus ex-
listed, he inserted every one of his adj
vertisements in it, although, as we
absolutely know, it circulated
less than one hundred copies a day,
Including free distribution. This was
done, of course, in fulflment of a cor
rupt bargain with Charles s. Clarke,
Jr., for political support. 1t may be
that since the death of the Argus the
advertising of the silerif's office is not
quite so scandalous; but, if so, it is
only because there is no other paper
in the county quite so moribund as
it was.
Either the law requiring Sheriffs'
sales and other legal processes to be
advertised means some good to those
who pay for the advertising, or it does
not. 1t the former, it ought to be
carried out in its proper meaning and
intent; if the latter. why the law
ought to be abolished. That is all
there is about it. 1t is a crime to
waste people's-oftcn poor peoples
money as it is now wasted, for no
good. The law compels adj
vertising, because the law
demands publicity for certain
proceedings. 1t is a wiIful evasion of
the statute when the advertising is so
placed that nc publicity is secured.
In this matter, as in all other details
of his administration, Mr.. McPhillips
is a constituencies ~malfeasant. He
runs his Office in his own interest and
for his own qualification, and without
the least regard for the people who
showed a mistaken confidence in him
by electing him to office in opposition

ohlcial List of Exemptions :

Oficfai List of Exemptions "A
Notable Revelation.
In another column will be found
a list of the property exempt from
taxation in this city-so far as it car
be CLEANED from the books OF the Ia
Commissioners. We have not the
least idea that it is accurate. Indeed
on its face it is ridiculously mac
curate. But it is the best that can be
got this moment, and we print it fol-
what it is worth.
1t shows q total of SO, 016, 600 ex'
empted in this city as against $11, 4o6,
S51 In Newark; but the amount O
the exemption is at least a million toe
low. The table prepared by the New
ark tax officials is a marvel of care
and skill, while the returns prepared
in this city are slovenly in form and
negligent in matter.
To support this assertion, it Is only
necessary to specify n or two items
At first glance, one perceives that
Van Worst and Hamilton parks are
omitted altogether. Why? Was Mr..
Johnny German too busy resisting
the Establishments of bribers to think
OF them? They are such t~riies, you
know, SO easily overlooked. Then
there is the new Hall of Records. What
becomes of it? Was Mr.. Dave Lawrence
too busy getting up crank political
sensations to appraise it? The public
schools as given in the returns are
rated at $572. 800. including No. 20,
which is the latest addition. The re-
port Of the Board of Education fol-
1891 gives as the official value of build.
ings and lots held by the city foi
school purposes, $62s, 900, NOT in
Guiding No. 23. Somebody is in error
therefore to the amount OF about
eightv-five thousand dollars. Who il
it? Who has made the mistake? Is
1t the Board Of Education or the Tax
Board? Now look at the police sta.
tions. We are told that four owned
blythe City aggregate $S4, 900 in value.
Police Headquarters cost $35 900, con
tract price. The lots it stands on are
worth at least $40, 900. 1t therefore
takes up $45. 900 of the 1884, 600. Are
we to believe that the other three
buildings with the lots they stand or
are together worth only $50, 900 Oh
about $500 each? 1t seems to US
this is imposing on the common sense
of the public.
We have long believed that our
Tax Board was a thoroughly good fol
nothing body. We have defended
them where they seemed to be right,
but it must be generally admitted
there is enough that IS rotten about
their books to cast suspicion on them
as a whole. The next Legislature
ought to kick them out OF Office, ane
give us decent and capable men in
their place. Men who know some
thing about property values, and who
nave some moral character to support
them in doing right.

What new Republican deviltry is in
the air now? Something, evidently,
for the Philadelphia Press says
In the new deal of rooms to the Senatorial
Committees, MIR. Quay has drawn a prize. He
will be located SO that visitors can reach him
without displaying themselves prominently
Why should Mr.. Quay's visitors de-
sire to reach him without displaying
themselves prominently" Is Honest
| John Wanamaker once more to enact
the role of q visiting Cresus with a
$400, 900 roll in his pocket? When
Matthew Stanley Quay desires to re-
ceive visitors in secret, Dame Justice
will put an extra handkerchief over
her eyes, if the Republicans can have
their way.
THE Trenton Times wants to know
if there "is not good ground for sus-
picion that Cleveland's neglect about
congratulating Crisp is due to some
thing else than observation-disclosures"
Why should there be? Mr.. Crisp is a
Democrat. so is Mr.. Mills, IS are all
the gentlemen who aspired to be
Speaker-at least it is not probable
that any Republican was tinctured
with any special desire that way this
season. Now why should Mr.. Cleve-
land invite the enemity of the de-
feated by congratulating the victor in
a purely Democratic struggle? Mr..
Cleveland is not a fool, mol is he likely
to make a fool of himself merely to
oblige a few Republican editors.
WHILE Bishop Wigger may have
been justified, as a matter of church
discipline, in removing Father Graeff
from the charge of st. Henry's
Church, the Father having violated
the episcopal injunction. persons not
interested in the matter will believe
the principle wrong. because the
| priests offense was the use of the Eng
lish language in conducting the
church services. The use Of the Eng
fish language among foreign born

Dyspepsia

Makes many lives miserable. and often leads TO
self destruction. Distress after eating, sick head-
ache, heartburn, sour stomach, mental depres-
sion, etc, are caused by this very common and
increasing disease. Hoods sarsaparilla tones the
stomach, creates an appetite, promotes healthy
digestion. relieves sick headache, clears the
mind and cures the most obstinate cases OF dys-
pepsia. Read the following:

occasion to consult his watch found to
his CONSERVATION that he had left it

He hastily made his departure as he

that he had certainly done his share

when, on arriving at the depot. he
found it was only 9.45, instead Of 1916,
