The article Ia not the stereotyped coll

with the gamblers that the World has

posure OF the gang In Jersey City. Il is
direct, specific. 1t svan asserts positively

THE chorus of praise of Judge Lip
pincott's rebuke of perjury and trea-
son in the Grand Jury room sounds
all over the State. and indeed far be-
yond the limits of the State. We do
not think there is a single paper in
New Jersey of any political COM
plexion which has not ungrudgingly
paid tribute to courage, energy and
rectitude in the enforcement of law
and good morals which are seldom
eqnslled even on the bench.
Judge Lippiucott is rapidly acquir-
ing a national reputation which, we
believe, viii lead to even more exalted
official station than he now holds.
The approval which has followed his
entire course on the bench is far diff.
ferent and far better than political
popularity; it is a form of esteem
which politicians seldom or ne win
frcm the public. But. once acquired,
1t constitutes a strength which the
light airs of party favor cannot dis
turb or impair.

That the administration of Mr..
Cleveland is wise and patriotic is once
again shown in the position taken by

the practical development of the
principle laid down some weeks ago
by the President for the guidance of
the public.
The President then advised the
people to avoid panic, to help each
other and to rely on the natura!
wealth Of the country. Evidently
this is Mr.. Eckeis' idea, He recog-
Mics in the recent failures the effects
of temporary causes. He sees no
cause for general alarm. and he be-
lieves that with a little forebearance'
and e little help the banks can, in a
short time, get on their feet again
and once more flourish. He says

Ii private parties will pursue the
same policy in dealing with concerns
which are weakened by momentary
causes altogether beyond their CON-
troll. the financial crisis will soon be a
thing of the past, and the whole
business world will be rolling on
smoothly again.
