fore the Grand Jury and endeavored to
secure the Indictment of Christopher P.

J.. O'Donnell. Police Justice.

the alleged facts of what he
claims to have been an illegal arrest

his treatment by Superintendent Smith,
and how Justice O'Donnell compelled
him to give 81, 900 pail. No decision, it is
said, was reached by the Grand Jury.
When asked District Attorney Win
field if Justice O'Donnell had right to
cause the arrest of Cole for slander. and
to compel him to give bonds for the ac-
tion of the Grand Jury, he
replied: NO, slander is not
an indictable offense, and no one had q
right to arrest Cole for it,"
Mr.. Coles charges against Smith are to
be heard this afternoon at meeting of
the Board of Police Commissioners.

REPUBLICAN lNGRATITUDE.

That Now Paper Win Be Published in
Spite of the Journals" Reform.
Since the recent election was held. there
have been many inquiries among Repub-
licans concerning the fate of the proposed
new Republican paper. Several months
ago number of members of the Repub-
lican County Committee filed with the
County Clerk articles of incorporation of
the Hudson County Publishing Com
pany. 1t was said by these gentlemen at
the time that 1t was the intention to issue
about 100000 of stock and establish a
spriohtly and readable Republican news
paper
This proposition was gladly welcomed
for the necessity of such paner had long
been felt by Republicans. Considerable
stock was subscribed-some say as much
as $50 900, was guaranteed within very
short time. 1t was the desire of the pro-
jectors of this newspaper to have the
paper owned by people living in this
county, and for that reason stock could
be bought for s. a share and upwards.
The managers did not care to have all of
the stock taken by two or three wealthy
men, for they believed that the more SUBJ
scribers to the stock they had the more
people would feel directly interested in
the success of the enterprise and lend
their individual efforts in building up a
good Republican newspaper. one that
could be taken into any mans house
without causing blush to mantle the
faces of his wife and daughters.
Why this paper has not been published,
and why it was not prepared to help the
Republican party in the recent struggle
is the conundrum now being asked. Tx
Judge R. B. Seymour was one of the
most ardent advocates Of the proposed
paper. In fact he was the prime mover
in the enterprise, 1 called on him yester-
day and asked him if the movement had
died.
"By no MEANS" he replied, "the paper
will be published. We were not pre-
pared to enter into the Mayoralty cam
paign, and therefore there has been some
delay, but this paper will be published at
an early day. There is plenty of time for
us to develop the project fully before the
actual publication"
1t is currently believed that the new
paper will spring to life about September
/. when it will take an active part In the
great political struggle this fall.
