ENJOYABLE ORGAN RECITAL.

An organ recital was given in the new
ediice Of the Central Avenue Reformed
Church ON Bowers street. Miss Belle H.
Loveridge, who presided at the organ,
played Suppe's Poet and Peasant Overture, .
an offertoire by Baptiste; a march Pontifi-
Gale, by De La Tombelle, and a pastorale
by Kuliak. These works afforded Miss
Loveridge an excellent opportunity for
bringing out the possibilities of the new
organ, which she improved in an artistic
manner. DR.. Julius Peters, violinist; Miss
Martha H. Meyer, contralto, and Mr.. H. B.
Nedham, baritone, materially added to the
evenings pleasure. The concert was largely
attended, and the proceeds, about forty dol
lars, went to the church fund.

Mavor wanser and the Machine.

The action of the Wanser Club in
refusing to pass resolutions endorsing
the Mayors appointments is a most
surprising occurrence. If it is to be
taken at its face value, it can only be
regarded as proving that the Mayor
is so much better than his party TIL at
the politicians of that party are mo r
tally offended. The Mayors appoint
nlents with two or three exceptions
have met with the most cordial APP
proval of the public, and the two or
three exceptions are. we presume, just
the ones that the heelers wo uld be
glad to endorse.
Despite all their talk upon the
h~ustings, the Republican politicians
OF this town-and every other town
are out for the spoils. They think it
all right for their candidates to prom
Use non-partisan appointments and
care for the peoples interest alone,
because they think it all right for
them to break their promises as soon
as they are elected.
But Mayor Wanser has not broken
his promises. His appointments have
been bipartisan in the true sense of
vae word; that is to say, with-two or
three exceptions, they have been non
machine appointments. The Mayor
has put the city and its people ahead
of the Republican machine every
time-or nearly every tiine-and it is,
we presume, on this account that the
hangers-on of the machine are I'M
willing to pass resolutions of endorse
ment.
The Mayor can afford TO laugh at
them. He is building up his power
In the confidence of the voters, II il
he pursues his present course he Will
presently be Independent of the ma
chine. On a smaller scale and in the
opposite party, his position is not I'M
like that of Grover Cleveland.

Understanding Reached Between
the Board of Trade and the Senate. p
The Board of Trade was to nave held its
last meeting previous to adjournment for
the summer, last night, but the rain and the
heat evidently were more than the members
could stand, and a quorum was not present.
The committee appointed to go to Trenton
and oppose the Kearpy annexation scheme
had prepared for presentation a report i'll
which the steps to beat the annexation
scheme are recited. 1t ends as follows
"The understanding reached between the
Senators and your committee was that the
bill could sleep and be allowed to die sleep
ing.
lit would be well, however, to keep watch
on the Legislature when it reassembles in
October to prevent the friends of the bill
from galvanizing it into life AGAIN.

Colonel Conger and Mckinley.

Colonel COnger n mckinley.
Colonel Conger's reputation OF
McKinleyism has raised no end of a
row in the Republican camp. All the
organs are screaming traitor" and
discredited schemer, and other COM
~plimentary epithets at the man who
has the courage to voice the growing
sentiment of the best element in the
party. They rake up the fact that
Colonel Conger was bitterly opposed
to the nomination of President Har-
rison for a second term, and argue
from this hat he is altogether a crank,
and a backnunber, and unqualified
to speak for any considerable body of
republicans.
The facts impress us the other way.
Colonel Conger's opposition to Har-
rison indicates that then, as now, he
was ahead of the bosses of his party
in comprehension of the public tenn
per. He saw that the people were
tired of the small gentleman with the
large hat. He was tired of him, him
self. He and the people were in sym
pathetic contact, and he felt just
what the result would be, while he
very clearly comprenended and stat
ed it's causes.
In the coming campaign, as he says,
one of two things may happen. The
Republican party may stick to Nc
Kinleyism and get beaten out of its
boots, or it may take up tariff reform,
with free coal, free timber, free ore,
and free sugar as war cries, and score
n vjctorv like that of 1898

RECEPTION ON THE PRISCILLA.

The new steamer Priscilla of the Fall
River Line will be open for inspection at the
wharf of the line, foot of Murray street,
New York, tomorrow evening Admission
will be by card only. Those who are FORUM :
ate enough to have received invitations for
this occasion will be amply rewarded by ac-
cepting them, for the Priscilla is certainly a
beauty. She will be flooded with electric
light, and a concert will be given in her
grand saloon by the orchestra to be attached
to her regularly throughout the year.

counts for little unless is is
upheld by actual present time
facts. The fact that we have
been here II years does not
prove everything, but it does
prove some very important
points. A business built
upon the sands of misrepre-
sentation couldn't have lasted
that long. The rocks of
truth and fair dealing are
under the foundation of "the
largest piano business in
New Jersey" Present time
facts speak for themselves.
Pianos like the
GABLER, HARDMAN,
VOSE and

THE Senate has greatly reduced the
tariff on corks, while it has laid 1T
heavy on timber, coal and iron ore.
This used to be one of the strongest
charges against the Mckinley Act
that it reduced the tariff on things OF
secondary Importance, while it piled
it up on the necessities of life.

The ~Scandalous j. Ps.

The proposal in regard to justices
at yesterdays session of the Con
stitutional Commission is wholly in
sufficient to meet the crying evil
which now prevails. So far as cities
are concerned, it is not an Abatement
of the nuisance that is needed but it's
total abolition. Cities like this which
pay large salaries for the maintenance
of police courts have no use for
police justices, and in such cities
there is no means by which the office
can be honorably remunerative. As
young men out of vanity or by ma
ture ones whose motives will very
seldom bear publicity. We do not by
any means desire to say that every
police justice is a rogue, but We do
insist that the amount of roguery
practised among them is a disgrace to
the State.
Monday we had four of these gentle
men pleading to indictments for ex-
tortion or embezzlement. Yesterday
we had another one. Yesterday we
also had one convicted on three
charges of extortion. In fact, this
term and the last have afforded a
constant succession of scandals of
this sort. 1t is besides a matter of
common notoriety that in the offices
of the justices of the peace who
practice" crooked work is the rule
not the exception. Oppression and
extortion are the primary ideas.
Crooked lawyers work in with the
crooked justices and ''divvy" all
around is the rule.
There is only n way to reform
this. Wipe out the system altogether,
wherever there are paid committing
magistrates, and divide the duties
between the police and civil justices.
Where there is danger. of the police
business being embarrassed through
the sickness of a single paid magis-
trate, then simply have justice OF
the peace, but prohibit him from act
ing save. in case of the police Justices
sickness or absence. If it is not pos
siple to 60 into these details in a con-
s%titutional clause, it is easy to clothe
the Legislature with power to regu-
late the matter within certain broad
limits. 1t is to be hoped the Com
mission will take this subject up in an
earnest spirit and do something
radical to stop the present evils al
together.

THE conviction of Jack Dougherty
is one of the most salutary things
that have happened in this city in
many a day. The thug policeman is
a thing that civilized cities cannot
stand. Better even the b~ribe-taking
policeman for the harm he does is
remote and indirect, while the ruffian
and the bully are a constant menace
and a constant outrage upon the
public. We hope Judge Hudspeth
will show no misplaced clemency in
this case. The jury has already let
Doughertv off too easily. He should
have the full penalty for the minor
offence of which he has been con-
vjcted

A Great EnelAssFi4g feat in the Far
SVEfhWest,

The recent eompletian of the great
eantaleyer bride over the Columbia
river at Rock island, Wash, MARKS the
accomplishment of the greatest feat of
railroad engineering in the west. The
Columbia at Wanatchee, where the
big bridge is being built, is between
300 and 1000 yards in width and from
10 to 200 feet deep at low water. Its
channel, according to the Seattle Her
aid, is worn deep below the general
surface of the valley, and, though the
annual June rise is 35 to so feet, it
never overfows. After many surveys
and measurements the company de-
cided to build bridge high enough
not to interfere with navigation rather
than a drawbridge at a shallower point
and support the same on piers.
At the point selected for crossing. a
basaltic butte rises 500 feet above the
valley. The butte drops down to the
river in shelf-lilse terraces, and on one of
these shelves the western approach of
the bridge rests.
On the opposite bank stands a SINH
lar butte, 200 feet above the water, and
through this butte roadway has been
cut for the eastern approach. Two
hundred and fifty feet from the east
bank of the river is an island, or rather
a huge rock, on which the only pier in
the river is built. Between the rock
and the west bank flows the main
stream, which is 416 feet wide and las
feet deep.
The whole bridge is 9161S feet long,
not counting the minor approaches
and is 100 feet above low water mari,
and 70 feet above extreme high water
The first span reaches from the bluff
on the west side, $50 feet, to a shell
above the water line. The second OF
main span reaches 4161S feet above the
main channel to the river. 1t weigh.
$50 tons and in the center is rs feet
from top to bottom of the structure
The third span extends from the islant
to the east bank. The entire bridge il
built of steel and wrought iron.
