"The News, as a Party Organ,

The Newark Journal and JERSEY Cry NEWS,
the Democratic organs of those towns respec-
Iorial nomiuatioa. The Journal declares that
the Democrats OF Jersey City need a good, clean
organ. The NEWS retorts that This means
that there Is no Democratic daily In Jersey City,
which, like the Newark Journal, recognizes rum
selling. ballot box stuffing, contract jopbing and
Office grabbing as the essential features of DEM
ocracy." The NEWS is a Mcpherson organ,
while the Journal is understood to represent
the wishes OF James Smith, Jr.-Stdte Gazette.
This is amusing. At one time or
another we have found ourselves
written down by the various papers
all over the State as the ''organ" of
every conceivable person, opinion
and principle, good. bad or indiffer-
ent. At first it used to be annoying,
now we find it rather comicaL. Con-
tradictions do not worry the wise
acres who criticize our course; it is
nothing to see the same paper placing
us on different sides Of some contro-
verified matter on different days. We
have been called the organ of Cover
nor Albeit. the organ of Allan Nc
Dermott, the organ of bob" Davis
and Denny" Mclaughlin. the organ
of E. F. c. Young. This is the first
time we have been called the organ of
John r. Mcpherson, but we knew it
would come oon or later. The only
thing that never seems to occur to our
critics is that we are nobody's organ
at all.
THE JERSEY CITY NEWS is no
mans mouthpiece. 1t is beyond the
dictation or control of any person
whatever, or any group or combina-
ton of persons. The opinions it pre-
sents to the public represent nothing
but the conscientious views of its edi-
tors and managers. They aim to
make it an organ of pure Democracy,
by careful study and honest presenta-
ton of the principles of the party as
defined in it's official pronouncements
and interpreted by its best thinkers.
In matters of minor party policy, in
the clash Of personal interests, THE
NEWS reserves to itself the full right
to form its own judgments and to
support such men and such plans as
are, in its belief, best calculated to
further the good of the people and the
interests of the Democratic party
which are one and the same thing
and to subserve the demands of JUS
tice and right. Thus it may be that
one day we may be found more par
ticularly favoring the ideas of Gov
ernor Albeit, tomorrow we may be
advocating those of Senator McPher-
son, according as the plans of the n
or the other may seem to us to
promise greater advantages for the
general good of the cause. One thing
may be positively said, this paper will
lever be found in the position of a
dictionary. With petty ambitions
and local relationships it may from
time to time deal with just severity,
but it will never be found assaiiing
any of the real leaders of the party in
the interest of any other. When hon
ors are to be given out, it will always

Eldorado's Beauty.

The Sunday concerts at Eidorado have
become quite a feature of that beautiful
resort. Thousands of people VINO rarely
go to an outdoor entertainment, find in
Eldorado an attraction of much merit. 1t
is popular with the masses who like the
tine music and good singing.
Manager Walker is about to introduce
many novel features into Egypt Through
Centuries" to make The closing weeks
very interesting. The beauties of the
spectacle have drawn thousands to Edo
RADIO every day. 1t is a great production.
All the scene are given gu a scale of
wonderful magnificence. The four grand
ballets incidental to the play are by far
the most elaborate ever put on any stage.
To those who have not been to Eldorado,
the place will be q revelation. 1t is beau
rifully laid out and the location is very
picturesque.
From a spectacular point of view
Egypt" is very tine:,but there are the bal
lets, the coloriDg, the costumes and the
tableaux which are really beyond de-
scliption.
The Annex boat leaves the Pennsyl-
vania Depot at 7:45, and leaves Eldorado
after the performance at Hoo.

three song and dance women of diverse

knows, but il is safe TO wager that he is
sufficiently mindful of the trend of the
public taste to have discovered that even
where it is necessary to strain point
something Of the kind is desirable, unless.
indeed, actual violence TO the plot be done
by the Interpolation. Other managers
have recognized the deterioration In the
theatrical appetite of the metropolis, and
all started out at the same time TO supply

market.

OF course there is Hoyt's farcical moth

huh order and cannot be put In the cate

than anything else, although that Is GER
tainly not saying much
"The Robber Of the Rhine" closed De-
cause. in spite Of money and an excellent

the Jokes and situations had too strong an
"Ive-met-you- before" favor TO go down

hacker of the enterprise, one Mr.. Ihomas
II Pratt. a man IN his early twenties, con-
templates the loss OF his $4,000 or $4,000.
He treats the whole matter as though II
were a mere bagatelle.
"King Kaliko," that hardy annual,
which has bobbed up serenely every year
with the announcement that 1t was about
TO be produced, and finally got on the stage
of the Broadway after great deal OF pre-
liminary puffery az to the fabulous cost OF
very cheap scenery and costumes, was
taken OF because II it had not been re-
moved IL would probably have ruined the
reputation Of the theater. Taken all in
ali, it was perhaps the most "unfunny"
thing ever attempted in frst-class New
York theater. 1t was a decidedly serious
affair, especially TO the performers, who
are all engaged in industriously porting
over old copies of Hamlet" in their
dreams. In these visions the ghost always
walks; in king Kaliko" he was too aris-
tocratic, and kept scrupulously in the back
ground.
Even the few outdoor attractions at FL
dorado and South Beach have failed to
draw as anticipated, and the latter has
closed. The newspapers are doing all in
their power to help the managers. but to
no purpose. To use an ineiegant though
excessively forcible term the New York
public seems to have "soured" on summer
theatricals and won't have them, and that
ends the matter. The cause, if one cares to
seek IL out, Is not hard to find. The farce
comedy craze of the past two or three
years has vitiated the popular taste, and
the theatrical palate must now be tickled
with the feathers and furbelows Of ex-
trayaganza or absurdity.
