ZINC WORKS RESUME OPERATIONS.

The passaic Zinc and Spelter Works of La

tary and Treasurer. They opened Dup with
about fifty hands and one building, and kept on
growing uutfl at the present day they occupy
five buildings ami employ over 2 0 hands. The
cause Of their shutting down last summer was
the lack OF business and not the want OF money
At present they have just barely enough busi-

their force. hut think In the near future they
will be able to take on all the old hands, as the
prospect OF business picking up 10 very bright. Z

why Hugh A. Kelly should Be Beaten.

Why Hugh A. Kelly Should Be Beaten.
One of the speakers at the mass
meeting Of the old O'Neill Associa-
ton last evening very foolishly at
tempted to explain the opposition of
THE JERSEY CITY NEWS to Assem-
blyinan Hugh A. Kelly, as being due
entirely to Kelly's friendship for Rob-
ert Davis. This puts us to the pain
full necessity of o nee again clearly set
ting forth the true grounds of our
hostility to this lobster" statesman.
1t is true that his friendship for
Davis is one element in the case. 1t
is a disgrace to any one to be politi-
cally a friend OF Davis. No man can
touch pitch without being defiled,
and it is impossible to be the friend Of
an ex-keeper of a groggery of a de-
PRAYED character, of a ballot-box
s%tuffer, of a perjurer, a conspirator, a
corruptionist. and a professional
swindling gambler, and still
retain any claim to decent standing
in politics. Kelly's association with
Davis, however, is doubly sufficient
to damn him in all honest mems eyes,
for he was the very slave Of Davis in
the last Legislature, and aided in all
the infamies for which Davis was
sponsor.
The record of these villainies has
several times been given in The
News. We cannot spare space to
enter into it's details. Nor is it worth
while; the people know the story and
they will show how well they know it
next Tuesday. They will punish the
betrayal of Governor Albeit, the sal
airy raising bills, the Wanser wing
clippers and all the rest. The people
are with THE News in its adherence
of this undemocratic traitor, and they
know chapter and verse for their
opinions and resolves.

THURSDAY. NOVEMBER 2. 1893.
This paper is Democratic in principles and is
independent in its vfetrs on oil local questions
Stanton's Victory Practically Con.
coded.


The Democratic campaign has
turned out to be a hummer. 1t is
being, in the main, superbly managed
by John P. FeeneY and his able corps
of lieutenants, and every day and
every hour the prospect grows
brighter. The Republicans have
been placed on the defensive by the
indiscretion of their clerical allies.
The old threadbare sensations which
the Toffey papers tried to make the
issues OF the campaign have died a
natural death, and the contest is now
being waged on new ground. and
ground that is very unfavorable to
the gallant Colonel in the downtown
districts OF this city and in Hoboken
and North Hudson. Besides. many
sorenesses within the Democratic
party have been healed over, many
small feuds compromised, many gaps
closed up. The party is in good shape,
and the enemy has lost its grip. We
have thought from the beginning
that Mr.. Stanton was pretty sur to
win the fight. Now we think there is
not a doubt of it. We estimate his
majority in the county at from 1900
up.
It is quite plain that the anti-Stan-
ton forces foresee this result as plain
ly al we do. They are now prepar-
ing for their regular annual squeal
about fraud. Stories have come from
Hoboksn about padded registry lists
there, and this mornings World has
a crazy wall about the registration up
in the long dock precinct. This is a
sure sign of defeas. The walters are
simply preparing a hole to crawl out
of when the landslide strikes them.
Next Wednesday we will have no end
of rubbish about Colonel Toffey's de-
feat being due to the old tactics of
'tthe Ring"
But it will not go. The people
feel the movement of the tide already.
They know what is going to happen.
They will laugh at any fake mt
after election. Everyone knows that
the elements which will produce the
inevitable result are Stanton's per-
sonal strength and the principles of
the Democratic party, ably aided and
abetted by Colonel Toffey's unwise
friends.
