It's pleasant, once in a while, to re-
mind our esteemed contemporaries on
Montgomery street that they are not
in it with THE News in the matter of
publishing local news of interest and
Importance. We could give every day.
if we chose to write the space, a long
list of "beats" i'll our favor; but we do
not care to tire the public. We pre-
fer to do it just once in n while by
way of illustration. Today, in honor
of the glorious Fourth, we will give a
list of the important articles which APP
peared in THE News of Tuesday and
OF which the Journal had no informa-
ton.
SIM SMITH, CITY COLLECTOR

by Mayor Wanser since his election.

A HUNDRED IAsHEs-A pretty
Hoboken women horsewhips a young

These being really important and
interesting matters, are, of course,
outside the range of the blanket sheet
organ of clothesline gossip. Let it be
added hat at least two articles in yes
terday's Journal were stolen from pre-
vious issues of THE News. The
shooting scores at Marion were simply
scissored from our edition of Monday.
The article on the new money order
system at the Post Office was rewrit-
ten from an article published in THE
NEWS two weeks ago.

THE World of yesterday morning
spoke of City Collector Simeon H.
Smiths appointment as still in doubt.
This is not SO. His commission was
signed and in his possession ronsTues-
day, when THE NEWS exclusively
made the announcement. 1t only re-
mains for him TO file his bonds and
take possession of the Office.
1t is needless for5us to say that we
are sorry to see p. H. O'Neill ousted
from an office which has been so faith
fully and successfully administered
under his direction. But as a change
was inevitable. it is sati sfactory that
the office passes to so competent a
man as Mr.. Smith. IA is business
ma of high stsaaIa e, gand there is no
reasonable doubt but he will admin
lister the office as successfully as his
pltoCCCooOL- |
We wonderif the 'genial and popu-
lar will have to walk the plank as
we'll as his chief. You who have
tears t. shed" etc.
THOSE who have heard the disgust
ing story connected with the latest
Scudder raid-that upon the den
known as the Old Homestead-are
wondering whether it will have the
effect of disgusting the Tabernacle's
pastor with the work of moral v
ger. To those not in the Parkhurstian
line OF business, this shocking story
it is too nasty for any paper but the
Journal to print it's a sufficient il
lustration of the fact that, eve when
the leader of a crusade is sincere and
we'll intentioned, Generalization and
degradation are sure, to result.
