TO-DAY. December the 22d is the
NeUs.
The foregoing is doubtless from the
pen of Professor Pigg, editor and pro-
prietor of the NeUs. The date men
toned may be the longest day in the
year in Pennington. but in other parts
of the world it's generally reckoned as
about the shortest. Perhaps, though.
being right next to Christmas, the
Farmingtonians make the hours so
merry that tits hard to tell when day
ends and night begins.

WHAT do the 2617 men of Jefferson

EVERYBODY is an admirer of SINGER
ity. Whether you can agree with d
man in argument or not, you can re-
spect him if he is honest in his convic-
tions. So it is with newspaper,
whether its opinions be right or wrong,
we like to know that it is honest in it's
beliefs and statements. In this connec
ton some of the Republican papers are
nothing short of contemplate; espec-
tally may this be said of the Globe
Democrat. After the Republican de-
feats in the elections of 1S9O-92 that
paper was very bitter in its denuncIa-
tion of the Mckinley bill, and the
monopolies it fostered. What change
again now! 1t blames the Democracy
for the present s.hard times" and in
sinuates that they are consequent
wholly on the threatened tariff chang
es. Consistency, thou art surely not
to be found in the editorial columns of
our Republican journals!

Cotton Seed $15 Per Ton.

The oil mills are now paying s15
per ton for cotton seed delivered
at their mills in New Orleans. The
boats get So per ton freight, and
we believe IL takes something like
a dollar for commissions, drayage,
etc., but, after all allowances are
made, the farmer should get at
least $40 per ton for seed delivered
on the river bank. In some cases
where there is lively competition
we hear that as high as $l2 per
ton has been paid to the pro-
Queer. This is a fortunate rise,
and, with the sitter prices for cot
ton that have prevailed of late,
will go long way toward reliev-
ing the financial pressure.

"Where in the world" asked the
lawyer who volunteered informa-
ton without q retaining fee, did
people - especially people in the
country-get the idea that one can
not touch or remove q body until
the coroner has arrived? That is
almost general belief in the coun-
try, and there never was q more ri
diculous and absurd piece of non-
sense than this / have seen a body
lie in everybody's way because the
people thereabout thought that it
was unlawful to touch it This
foolish tradition amounts almost to
superstition, and you may be sure
no coroner takes the trouble to en-
tighten stupid ignorance upon the
subject. The coroner is only too
willing to agrandize his influence
and power, and therefore rather
encourages than discourages this
silly superstition. IN. Y. Tribune.

BISHOP WIGGER ON TRIAL
Rumored That He Has Been Sum-
moned Before Mgr. SatolIi for
Fostering Cahenslyism.

A highly sensational story was pub
lished in a New York paper this mornin 9
to the effect that Bishop Wigger had
been summoned before Mgr. Satolli to
answer charges of fostering Cahenslyfsm
in his diocese, ana specially mentioning
the closing of st. Thomas Church
in BayonEe one year ago, when
Father Egan was transferred to another
parish. The matter, IL is claimed, was
brought to the attention of the Apostolic
delegate by the Rev. DR.. Burtsell, as
counsel for some Of the parishioners Of
the old church.
A number of priests in the city dis
credit the story, saying 1t was news to
them, ana that they did not believe such
"a course of action would he pursued by
the malcontents of tbe diocese.
Father Corrigan, when called upon at
the rectory on Willow avenue. Hoboken,
declined TO say anything in the matter.
other than that it would not be poiitic
for him to speak just now. He referred
the reporters TO Father Killeen, of Bay
onne.
Father Hofschueider, of st. Peter and
Paul's Church, Hobokeu, said he knew
nothing of the matter. II it were true,
he had no doubt the Bishop would ex-
plain matters to Mgr. Satolli, and
whatever Mgr. Satolli recommended
the Bishop would carry out. "But the
Apostolic Delegate may act as he recently
did when Polish congregation took ex-
ception to decision of Archbishop Ryan,
of Philadelphia, and complained to the
Delegate. He advised them to abide by
the decision of their Bishop"

ed Up Over the Revelations
The story which was published in THE
JERSEY CITY NEWS last evening regard
ing the trouble in the Greenville Reform.
ed Church has caused much excitement
among the members of the congregation.
A large crowd was present at the fair
which was held last evening in the
chapel, but the tables were deserted The
members gathered in groups and dis
cussed the matter.
A number of reporters are members of
the church, and lively times are expected.
1t is said that these reporters will be
brought before the Consistory for trial.
AS the reporters are being "backed up''
by q large number of members it is GER
tain that number of designations will
be rendered if the newspapermen are
disciplined.
There is much anxiety manifested by
the members, as many have promul-
gated the story Of the row, and these
members naturally expect to be SUM-
moned to appear before the Consistory I.
The membe Of the Consistory are
angry because the newspapers have
got hold OF the fact that the special meet
ing was to be held. They intended to
keep the matter quiet and surprise
several of the members. They refused TO
be interviewed and will not say what
they intend to do with the members who
are fonnd guilty.
