Let Us Move On.

Without entering into any discus
sion as to whether the present is a
proper time to float the City Hall
bonds, we may venture to differ with
Messrs. Frazer and Bedell as to the
general topic OF the erection of the
new building.
We think the city will be benefited
by the Improvement to a far greater
extent than Is represented by the
cash cost. We believe the majority
Of thoughtful citizens hold this view,
and we think the prosecution OF the
work actively and vigorously will be
a popular move.
This city needs to be central
lied. 1t needs a core or nucleus,
around which business can locate
itself. Perhaps the site chosen for
thesCity Hall may not be ideally the
YER best for this purpose; but 1t is a
very good one. 1t is near the Penn
sylvania ferry. which is the most i'm
portant radical point Of traffic. saIt is
near the present haunts.aof business;
it does not leave too far out OF range
the few fine modern buildings which
have recently been erected here. 1t
is on one fine street leading from the
Ferry to the Hill, and it is on the
principal thoroughfars from the
north to the south line of the city.

finish the building, there will be p

HER ELEGANT CAPE.
HOW ONE WOMAN MApE A SAVING
OF SO. 90.

Hints for Those who Like to Dress We'll
No Need of Looking Shabby, Even
Though Times Are Hard-The Secret
old by One who Knows.
Those fashionable capes with a triple COL
lar, are looked at with longing eyes by
many a woman. But times are nard, and
economy is both a virtue and O. necessity.
One woman solved the problem most sat-
isfactoriiy by ~coloring her old drab cloth
circular a rich, handsome brown, with a
package OF diamond dyes, thus actually get
ting a ten dollar cape for ten cents.
The druggists report a greatly increased
sale for diamond dyes this fail, and
say they nave completely superseded the
old fashioned methods with logwood ~,fustic,
indigo, etc. On each envelope is printed
null directions, so plain and explicit that
any one can use these dyes with perfec
success.
For nearly a score OF years diamond dyes
have been helping women to dress we'll at
a small expense, and 1T is natural that
their great success should have brought
many short-lived limitations upon the mar
ket. These would claim to make fast colors,
but the light fades them; they adulterated
their dye to make the package look large,
but actual use proved they C ould color less
than half as much as the diamond; and
offering a large profit, they secured agents
or peddlers to sell them but a woman never
bought them a second time.
Diamond Dyes come in nearly fifty colors
specially prepared for wool. SILK, and cot
ton, a ten cent package coloring from one
to ten pounds OF goods. No other dyes are
as strong, nothing else so simple, n none
SO fast and true in color. No woman can
afford to risk her goods with limitations,
especially whom the original diamond eyes
are admittedly far superior.

The New York and New Jersey Bridge.
Il is odd to think how history is
being made all around us, and how
little attention VT pay. Our children
and u chiidren's children will take
more interest in the passage of the
New York and New Jersey Bridge
Bill than nine hundred and ninety
nine people out of a thousand take
today. Half a column in the news
papers, which hardly anybody reads
beyond the headline and a passing
word of comment, constitute all the
notices isf one of the most notable
events Of the period. -
The hackers of the measure claim
to intend, bona fde, to go ahead with
the structure. From this completion
of the work, consequences flow which
battle speculation because they are
too enormous for the Imagination to
compass them. One Of the first re-
suits will be "a revolution in the in
ternal structRre of New York itself.
1t is not unlikely that the Herald's
expectation OF a business centre about
Thirty fourth street will be realized,
and tits not inconceivable that in
time the Battery may once again be
q fashionable residence district.
The revolution in the passenger and
mail transit from New York is the
obvious feature Of the scheme. The
saving of the transhipment, the econ
omy Of time are evident strides in the
onward march OF New York. The
effect on Jersey City is not gu ite SO
plain. The tendency is, assuredly, in
some degree to reduce the importance
and the traffic Of this city. But, after
all, the injury will be more nominal
than real. The Bridge is to acc ON
modate almost entirely the passenger,
mail and express business of the rail-
roads, and these bring very little, in
deed, in the way of population, bust
ness or profit to Jersey City. Where
we come in is on the freight trans
poration. This Will not be materially
affected by the Bridge. Indeed it
may be indirectly increased, for any
thing which tends to the greatness OF
New York naturally has its effect on
the surrounding places, and the
bigger. the richer and the more pro-
gressive New York becomes, the more
extensive becomes the business of
carrying commodities to and from her
busy marts and factories.
The bridging of the Hudson is a not
inappropriate achievement with
which to close the Century of Nate
rial Progress. We hail the passage OF
the law to authorize the undertaking
by both houses of Congress, as one OF
the notable events of the age.

Whatever the political effect of the
indictment of the corrupt Street and
Water Commissioners may be, the
event assuredly exonerates Sheriff
Stanton from the charge of drawing
Grand Juries that are afraid to do
their duty. This presen tment shows
that tho mem bers of the present
body are Independent of political or
personal Q ontrol.
If Sheriff Stanton had any pull
with the jury, he would. doubtless,
as a matter of ordinary prudence,
have urged a postponement of this
action until after next Tuesday. He
would not have desired to incur the
treachery OF the indicted men, and he
would not have wished to stir up the
partisan SANDER and misrepresenta-
ton sure to result from such an oc-
currence. M
But Mr.. Stanton has, of course, no
control over the matter. He drew
weeks ago a Grand Jury of good,
clean, honest citizens. They are now
acting according to their own best
judgments, and in a sense are con-
founding MFR. Stanton's enemies by
showing their own independence. We
hope the present indictments will be
followed by others for the syenite and
other jobs, and by the presentment of
Bob" Davis and the other hackers of
the policy game.
