The Ntght Schools.

The regiment of boys and men,
girls and women, who trooped to might
school, Monday evening, shows that a
terrible mistake would have been made
in failure TO open these institutions
for tine sake of a paltry economy. The
figures show that at least fifteen hun
dred persons started in Monday
night to make up for the losses
of their earlier days by de-
voting their leisure to the
requirement of knowledge. The
earnestness of the impulse that made
them surrender their rest and their
pleasure to this purpose, must indeed
be great and worthy.
Especially c~ommendable is the es-
tablishment of classes to teach foreign
ers English. There are many such in
the New York night schools, and they
are among the most highly thought OF
in the whole system. They have a
deep seated principle behind them
and a strong practicality in their
purpose. Here is the true solution of
your immigration question. Do not
smut the gates on your German or
your Italian who wants to come in
and work. Let him come in and work
for us. He can do many things we
Americans think ourselves too good
to do.
But when we get him in. just let us
Americanize him. Let us teach him
the language of the country, and with
it instill into his mind our ideas and
theories of manhood and citizenship.
Our night schools are a great insti-
tuition. May they grow, year by year.

JERSEY Clty,s Tax system.

1t is at first glance disappointing to
see the valuation of real estate in
Jersey City show a decline of $3.50, 600
between 1891 and 1892, but one great
reason of this is the recent great gain
of the city in point of assets. The
victory of the city in the South
Cove litigation Withdrew from the
tax levy this year, a piece of property
generally appraised at, at least a mil
lion dollars. So what is the city's
loss, is at the same time the city'sa
gain. We lose in taxes, but the Cen
trail Railway will have to pay the city
the rental agreed upon with the
Street and Water Board, and so, in
the long run, there will be no loss of
income, while the city is ahead in
assets the value of the tract.
The real flaw in Jersey City's tax
system, as the Stat g Commissioners
very properly point out, is the gross
differentiation of personal property.
1t is distressing, year after year, to con-
trast our record with that of Newark.
Look at.sthe figures which we pub
lished yesterday.

Is it any wonder that the Board has
nothing fattering to say, and de-
clares that personal property to a
great extent escapes taxation
W. should say it did.
