An Excellent Attraction at the New

LEND Me Your Wife" was the play
selected by Mr.. Roland Rsed to rsintro-F

That the selection was q popular one

eDsued as the play progressed. Though
the plot is light and ntry.' yet there is

Now that all the official results are
in, we cannot refrain from drawing
the public attention to the marvel
1ous completeness and accuracy of
the election figures published by THE
JERSEY CITY NEWS last Wednesday.
In the first place, THE NEWS vas the
only paper, not only in this county
but in the entire State, which pub
lished a complete list of the Senators
and Assemblymen elected. So care
fully prepared was the list that the
later news of Wednesday afternoon
only necessitated two changes in it,
those of Edwards and Timothy Bar
rett in Essex, both of which were
marked VERY doubtful" in the norm
ing edition. We believe that no pa
per in the State published at any
time on Wednesday so completely
accurate a list as that of THE NEWS.
The local returns were equally COM
plete and accurate. In the vote for
Sheriff, for instance, The NEWS
figures for four Assembly districts,
the Third, Ninth, Tenth and Eleventh
correspondent absolutely and without
even a units discrepancy with the
official returns. In all the other dis
tricts there were differences of from
one to five in the total votes of the
two leading candidates.
Every other paper published on
Wednesday returned Mr.. Oscar Krieg
as elected Assemblyman in the
Fifth district of Hudson. THE
NEWS alone correctly reported that
Mr.. Harding was elected by a
majority of nearly two hundred.
Even the EUening Journal fell into
this error. Nobody was surprised
that it lacked the enterprise to get
the State returns; but it might at
least have been expected to know
enough to tell what Republican As.
semblymen were elected in Hudson
county.
But it did not know even that.

shall ask the New Jersey State Senate for a
the ground that a democrat in the State OF New
Jersey ID as good as a republican and entitled
to a fair and impartial jury.
Mr.. Riddle is, of course, strictly
within his rights in urging his case
during the next session of the Senate.
OF course, it will be useless for him to
dose. The Republican majority Will
not commit hari-kari by giving him
the seat to which he was elected. We
do not specially blame them; it would
be expecting too much to think they
would deprive themselves Of the vote
that the Democratic majority of last
year SO foolisnly presented them with.
The blame for the minority of the
Democracy In the cominp session can-
not be placed upon the Republican
Senators. 1t remains forever with
the Race Track combine.
1t will be observed that we speak of
MIR. Riddle as legally elected, that we
uphold his right of further appeal

sire 1t to be clearly understood, how

of the regular drills of the police iu the

were drilled in the school If soldiers, the

police desire as much as any one else
concerned that a suitable drilling placs
be provided 10 which to study the vari-

True, if you consider the cash pay

the service. But it is not; it is, in
fact, an obsolete form which does no
good and much harm by developing
the class of loafers known as habitual
