record. 1t fills us with wonder and
admiration. 1t reminds us of the lini-
ment they sell in the country stores.
which is equally good for sunstroke
and frost bite.
Another interesting feature about
the bill is the way in which it benefits
the poor by putting a tariff of II per
cent. on diamonds, while clothing has
to pay so per cent.
The Republicans at Trenton Today.
The delegation to Minneapolis,
which General Sewell is constructing
at Trenton today is not to be in
structed to stick to Mr.. Harrison.
That is quite unnecessary. General
Sewell expects to have quite recovered
by the time the National Convention
meets. He will be on hand and he
has no fear of any Of those whom he
permits to accompany him, getting
away. The General has a firm hand.
He is an accomplished tanner of men
and we have no doubt he will vote his
following just as he pleases at the
proper time.
The Convention today is to endorse
the Harrison administration, how
ever. This is necessary, of course, to
keep the necessary hold of the dear
people, who must be told of all the
honor and glory that Patrick Egan,
Refrigerator Raum, Census Porter,
and Keystone Wananiaker have blaz-
oned upon the National escutcheon.
We would suggest that the Cape
May gift enterprise cottage and the
Ellis Island Emigrant Station con-
tract be made special features of the
resolutions of endorsement. They are
right here with us and among us
General Sewell knows all about the
former and Colonel Toffey and Major
Anderson know all about the latter.
With these for topics the Republicans
gathered at Trenton can endorse the
administration of President Harrison
with all the fervor of their patriotic
souls.
THE Journal gave a scream of joy
yesterday over the death which, it
thinks, has overtaken the new Re-
publican paper project. Apparently
Major Pangborn has not read THE
JERSEY Cry News carefully OF late.
Or is it that he does not credit what
his dear friend, ex-Judge Seymour,
says.
The Judge, you know, Major, gives
positive assurance that that new
paper will be out in time to ''do you
up"s in the Presidential campaign.
He says that when he gets it started,
there will not be any Journal left in
six months.
THE Board Of Aldermen of 1891-92
went out of existence last night, and
nobody is sorry. The chief ground
for regret is that so many of it's worst
members remain in the new Board.
The old Board did no good thing in
the past year. 1t issued rum licenses
regardless of the fitness Of the recipi-
ents, and the wishes of whole neigh
borhoods. 1t paid extravaganza print
ing bills to Republican jobbers. That
is all. 1t did none of the things that
it ought to have done. The city still
remains without a fire escape ordi-
nance
One man will be missed, Alderman
P. H. O'NeilI. His sturdy good sense
and his staunch Democracy have been
of good service, and we are sorry to
see him go out of office. II his success
sor makes as good a record, he will do
well.
1t is to be hoped that in making up
the new committees, President Allen
will try to break up the system of dis
graceful jobbery in the interest Of Re-
publicans which has prevailed for the
last two years.
ERMINIE made her bow last evening
to a Jersey City audience, and right
gracefully she made it. Tonight the
Chimes of Normandy will ring out a
loud appeal to the lovers of charity
and good music.
