The Jersey City news. (Jersey City [N.J.]) 1889-1906, 1894-01-17

Now this man is a specimen OF the
class who make our politics corrupt.
He. thinks, evidently, that it is til e
duty of a democrat or a Democratic
paper to back up every crime, every
v~illainy that is committed by a per-
som calling himself a democrat, and
to maligasand abuse every mar cal
ling himself a republican and every
act done by such a man.
THE JERSEY CRY NEWS is as I'M
compronisingly Democratic as it is
possible for a paper to be. Their 9 is
not one principle espoused by the
Democratic party. for which we are
not willing to fight to the last ditch.
We are in hearty sympathy with
every feature of the party policy in
National affairs. and in State and
municipal affairs also, SO far as true
Democratic principles or methods are
applied therein. We defy any man to
show the time when a heretical politi-
cal doctrine has been taught in this
paper.
But we do not consider that a pre-
tenee of Democratic allegiance on the
part of any mat or men s1ifi;es 60
shield them from the consequences OF
public or private crimes. We do nos
consider it Democratic to forcibly or
frauduiently overthrow or rsverss
the will of the people. We
do not consider that a pre-
tence of Democracy will justify
ballot box stuffing. Office grab
bing, bride taking, treasury footing.
policy gambling or green goods deal
ing. All these offences, and more too,
have been committed in this State by
a gang of r~ascals, masqueradlng as
democrats-along with quite a num-
Der of other rascals incorporating as
republicans. We have thought, and
do still and will always continue TO
think it our duty to scourge these ras-
Gals, all the more because, by falsely
calling themselves democrats, they
bring disgrace and ruin upon the
party.
In general. we regard the princi-
Piles, aims and ideals of the Republican
party as dangerous to the form OF our
government, and hurtfui to the in
terests of a majority of the people.
But this conviction does NOT prevent
us from recognizing honesty and
ability in individual republicans, or
from approving good public service,
when it is done before our eyes.
We are sorry we do not please our
ex-subscriber as a Democratic paper.
It is our aim to please when we can
do SO honestly. But we certainly will
not compromise our sense of right to
win the favor of any one. We may
add that, if he does o like US, the
feeling is reciprocal. We assuredly
do. not like the kind of democrat that
he seems to be.

a long time to clear the halls and station

been arraigned on the charge of contempt
of court their counsel entered plea OF
not guilty and demanded a separate jury
trial for each prisoner. The court over
ruled both demands, saying that the de-
PENDANTS had been charged with common

veal of Christ is now encamped in his
toric Bladensburg, village famous for

of the indignant citizens of Hyattsville,

der, to-day left the hotel at which they
have been staying since their arrival, and

trains and interfering with the mails The
Attorney-General counseled with the Sec
retary of War. and it was decided to adopt
the line OF policy pursued last week in deal
ing with these cases. While general in
structions had been sent to the military
commanders in the troubled districts to
give all lawful assistance necessary TO the
United States courts in repressing these
outrages. it was felt proper to send specifc
