The suggestion in the World ysster-
day that Mayor Wanser should inv lite
the Finance Commissioners to resign
is an excellent one. 1t is essential to
the welfare of the city that the Chief
Executive and the members of this
board should be in perfect rapport.
The Board of Finance has always
been regarded as, in a sense, the
Mayors cabinet or privy council. He
has always sought advice and aid
from the members, who were always
supposed to be conservative and dis
interested men. The members, on the
other hand, have always been sup
posed to consult the Mayors views, to
carry out his policy and to give gem
eral support to his plans of admins
tration.
It is nov plain that the present
Board, 30 far from harmenizing with
Mayor Wanser. has assumed an atti-
tude of open hostility to him. This
was quite plain from the course Of the
Board ON last Wednesday week. This
failure to appoint Judge Blair, the
candidate favored by the Mayor for
Corporation Counsel. the brutal in
suit to Mr.. Weart. the Mayors per-
sonai friend and appointee. and the
~insoIent ignoring of the courtesy and
loyalty due to the Mayor. showed that
the five gentlemen had determined to
break away from General Wanssr's
leadership and hoe q new row of their
own. But had any doubt remained
npor. the point, it would have been
settled by that conversation over
heard in a horse car between a Fin
anoe Commissioner and Mr. Jacob
Ringle, and reported in THE NEWS

between five and six O'Clock on the platform of
a Montgomery street motor.
One of the gentlemen engaged In the CONVEX
sation was a Finance Commissioner. 1'ae Other

What is uew?" asked the Sinking fuud Com
missioner.

Finance Commissioner.

like it. We have had enough Of one man rule
in this city. aud it is time it was broken up. :
botIy replied the fnaucier.
The subject of conversation was changed by
the Sinking Fund Commissioners, who. by the
way. is y supporter OF Mayor Wanser, tooth an q
nail. After a few remarks on drugs. tue tax
man said:
iva will be prepared to pay Sa5o,o goo which
falls due in May. il nothing happens.

Commissioner
This concluded the conversation. one of the
gentlemen ~alighting from the car,
This was not a confidential eommu-
nication. 1t was an open declaration
of war. 1t was publicly uttered in a
loud tone for anyone who chose to
hear it, though. of course, it was di-
reetly addressed to Mr.. Ringle.
1t was one of those fortunate out
bursts of truth which. like riffs in the
clouds letting through the sunshine ,
enable the politician to steer his
course with safety.
1t was like Mr.. Fielder's re velations,
that memorable Wednesday night,
while he was enthusiastic with drugs.
1t let the whole cat out of the bag Ito
slightly alter the metaphor.
OF course THE NEWS can furnish
the Finance Commissioners name.
But perhaps he will anticipate any
action Mayor Wanser might take by
resigning.

The Politics oil DESPERATION.

The Politics of Desperation.
The proceedings at Trenton So far,
must be a source of deep grief to
every good citizen-above all. to every
good democrat. The position taken
up by the holdover Senators is wrong
in morals and wrong in law. Politi-
cally. it is stark, staring madness.
1t is wrong in morals because, at
best. it is an attempt to subvert the
will of the people on technical
grounds. There can be no doubt but
if the voters of New Jersey were
polled, they would demand the seat
ing of Mr. Bradley oy a majority of
fifteen or twenty thousand. at least.
Ifthe people of Monmouth County
were polled again, they would give
Bradley the same majority all over
again that they did last November.
We do not like a hair in Bradley's
head. We regard him as a noxious
crank; but we are dealing here with
the will of the people. not with its
DClfElCidl ~ All q 0OI0, thO PSORAS
want the Senate to be Republican
this year and, though it is a pity,
they should be so mistaken in their
desires, they should have their way.
The course of the holdovers is wrong
in law, because, even if the original
claim of continuity be granted, it is of
value only for five minutes. The mo-
ment the appointed hour comes, the
new Senators, having taken the oath
of Office, before any competent official,
are Senators, endowed with all the
rights and powers of the office. A
majority of the Senators anywhere
assembled, Especially within the pre-
cinets of the State House-are the
Senate. and they can judge of each
Others election and qualification; they
can effect a permanent organization
and do business. They can disregard
the minority, or they can. through the
Sergeant-at-Arms compel their attend
ance. The notion that the law or the
Constitution gives the holdovers any
initial jurisdictionover the newcom-
ers is simply nonsense.
Finally, the course of the holdovers
is bad politics, mainly because for the
time the Democratic party is out of
favor with the people. It cannot re-
cover popularity by v%exatious conten-
ton against the peoples mandates.
Even il it were right in this fight, it is
in the very nature of things that the
people would hold it wrong and pun
ish 1t accordingly. There is just one
way for the Democracy to its
grip. 1t should identify itself with
the popular desire for economy and
reform. and give the Republican party
rope enough to hang itself. BY this
course, it could probably o III
premacy next fall. BY its present
policy, we fear. it is booming itself to
years of defeat.

ssThe News'o Circulation and tn
ssJonrnaIss,s-A Lie Nailed.

ssThe News'o Circulation and the
ssJournal's',-A Lie Nailed.
1t is reported to us that some agent
or agents of the EcenGag Journal
have been circulating the report
| among the business men of this
city that THE JERSEY CITY
| NEWS has been losing circulation of
late, and that the Journal has been
| regaining a number of the subscribers
which THE News took away from it
in the course of the last year. The
assertion was made that this was due
to the picture gift enterprise recently
attempted to be run by the Journal.
We have only one word to apply to
this claim:-It is a lie; a lie pure and
simple, a lie made out of whole cloth.
THE NEWS has not declined in cir
culation in any degree since the re-
markable increase began last spring
as a result of it's increased size and
general development. THE NEWS
circulation is larger, ON the average,
at present than ever before. It is in
creasing every day. In Hoboken it
is equal to that of all the other local
papers together. In Jersey City, it is
hardly inferior in numbers, to that of
the Joa9nal.
Moreover, THE NEWS is doing a
larger and more prosperous business
in every department than it has ever
done before. An examination of the
books made last evening shows that
for the nine days of January of this
year MORE THAN TWICE AS
MUCH business has been done and
MORE THAN TWICE AS MUCH
money earned as during the first nine
days Of 1893. This is only a straw,
but it shows the way the wind blows.
THE NEWS is booming. It is
mounting slowly, but surely and
steadily, to the crest of a tidal wave
of success. Is there any reasonable
man in Jersey City who doubts it?
On the other hand, the Journal is
going down hill. It's own feverish
struggles prove it. 1t went at its pic
, ture gift enterprise with hysterical
energy. The pitiable collapse of the
scheme is shown by gradual abandon
ment of the spasms of puffery which
it kept up while there was a living
hope of success.
Yesterday, a new effort was taken
up. A new fake was obtruded on the
| public, in the shape of a great big
hysterical gift enterprise advertise
ment. You will all see the dry rot
creep into this, likewise. in the course
Of a week or ten days.
Then, probably, some other plan
to stem the tide will be tried. Pres
emily the poor old declining sheet
will be like the Mog7sSng Journal or
the Recorder a mosaic of fakes to
catch gulls, and keep up the empty
pretence of a circulation,
The writing is or the wall. The
days of the Journals kingdom are
numbered. We invite the business
community to calmly review the facts
as they are apparent to their own
| eyes.
PREsE STEY We shall make THE
| Journal eat its lies without salt. We
have a rod in pickle for It that IL
little wots OF. We shall make IL
dance to our music when the time
comes.
And the time is near at hand.

have fallen but another year there will
be a diminished acreage of each, and the
evils of overproduction viii be counter
acted. Formulas like these do not 20 deep
enough to reach the level of undercon-
sumption. Although the crops of cotton
and wheat are phenomenally large, the
supply would not exceed the demand so
enormously the average consumer could
buy on the same scale as in 1892, the last
prosperous year. But this he cannot do,
for his earnings have been reduced, his
savings have been impaired, his employ
ment is uncertain and his prospects are
gloomy. He is wearing his old clothes,
living on cheaper food and less of it, and
cutting down his living expenses in many
ways. He is the consuming unit, and he
buys less than he did Multiply him by
seventy millions and there is the Ameri-
can market, with shrinkage of purchas-
ing power which has disastrously affected
all its own industries, and many of those
of the world There are smaller sales of
home manufactures and less work and
lower wages for workers; and undercon-
sump ption of food and clothing is the result.
The Southern planter and the Western
farmer, the two agents who were la gely
instrumental in ordering in 1892 reversal
OF the industrial and protective policies
o the nation, are now suffering directly
from the evils of underconsumption.
Manufacturing interests were the first to
feel the effects of business uncertainty
and the losses Of wage earners. The great
agricultural producers South and West
are now learning to their cost that the
marked decline in the purchasing power
of a prosperous nation reacts necessarily
upon cotton planters and wheat farmers.
If cheapness of food and clothing were
the main factor of national prosperity.
Americans would now have full cause for
gratitude to Democratic tariff meddlers.
But when flour is low. and cotton sells
below the cost of production, and every
other commodity is cheap because the
p supply runs far beyond the demand, they
need not be thankful. The practical ex-
perience of the last tEo years has taught
Americans that, whatever may be tn,
truth about Free Trade or the Protective
policy, nothing can take the place of ma
