line which it does not satisfy. 1t gives
about the best train schedule in the
country. At the busy hours there
are no end of trains. They are good
trains and fast trains. The time to
New York is only twenty minutes.
They run from 4 A. NJ. to 1 A. NJ.
What more is wanted, we do not
exactly know.
AS for the ho~rsecars, they run all
night, and they do not make bad
time-for horsecars. They are not
all they ought to be; but it seems to
us the downtown tradesmen have the
best right to complain on this account.
Lower Jersey City loses much retail
trade on account of slow transit,
shoppers finding it easier to go to
New York. The city at large, beyond
all doubt, suffers from lack of rapid
transit; but il we were asked to indl79
cate the section that has least to conn
plain of, we should unhesitatingly
say Greenville.
Still, if they think they need m
thing more, the right way to proceed
is, beyond all doubt, to go ahead and
get it. They propose to do so, and
we wish them every success. They
talk of raising 800, 600, of somebody
in New York putting "all the money
needed to that sum-, of somebody else
getting the franchise and the right OF
way, and of the whole enterprise
going through like creased lightning.
We have heard such talk before. We
always wish well to the progressive
spirit that prompts it. But we are
somewhat accustomed to seeing the
boom taper off by degrees, when the
practical problems are attacked, and
finally become too a%ttenuated for the
unaided vision to discern it.
1t is easy to talk of raising large
sums of money as nuclei of big
schemes. Talk is even cheaper about
the still bigger sums to come in to
back up the first capital. But when
the cash is wanted, il is generally a
pretty elusive commodity.
Seriously. however, we hope Mr..
Thurston will see his way to doing
something to please the people OF
Greenville. By putting in a fast line
of electric cars, he might develop an
intercourse, business and social, be-
tween that section and the rest of the
city. Profit would thus accrue, not
only to his company, but to every
body, because more money would be
spent within the city itself.
JUDGE WERTs' remarks upon the
policy business must have made a GER

SILVER in his boots. There is a beau
tiful scandal impending when the Sc
crets of the policy business are laid
bare to the light of day, as they are
going to be very soon. A patched
up political reputation will be a
worse wreck than ever and the white
washed imp of reform will be a very
badly ratified creature.

Well, you know, he has prophesied
that every one connected with the
case will be in Heaven before Hal
linger. He points to the death of
Judge Knapp and Sheriff McPhiIlips.
He seems to think his prophecy is a
kind of "hoodoo," and he thinks the
outlook is bad for himself and the
