THE protest made by Typographical
Union No. "a to the Board of Alder
men, Tuesday evening, was founded on
Justice and right. We are glad to see
that the board passed a resolution to
carry out the printers demands. The
first of these was that all work that
can be done in the city should be
given out here instead of being sent to
New York. This is plainly right.
The money comes out of Jersey City
taxpayers pockets, and it is right
that it should be circulated in the
city again, as far as possible, afford
ing employment to residents and
paying a fair profit to local enter
prises.
The second demand was that city
work be given only to union offices.
Nothing could be more proper. There
is nothing more unwise than that
the city should aid in depress-
ing the pay Of good, honest work
men by giving its work to c~ontraband
shops whose constant tendency is to
lower standards, to bring mon down
to starvation wages, and to injure
legitimate business by cut throat
methods.
We are are with the typos in this
fight as a matter of abstract ju stice
and fair play, and, W. freely admit,
for business reason on the grounds
stated above. The Aldermen will
nave no ground to regret their action.
All the other city departments should
do likewise.

TO TEST THE WALL PAPER TRUST

PHILADELPHIA, June %, 1S94.-A move
ment is on foot here by q number of dealers
who have been forced out of business to test
the legality of the business being carried on
by the National Wall Paper Company, by
which name the Wall Paper Trust is known.
1t is understood the matter will shortly be
carried to the courts. The ground upon
which the action will be based is that the
trust is violating the federal antitrust law.

ANOTHER petition that was ad-
dressed to the board deserves to be
beaten in the most signal manner.
This is the street minstrelsy matter.
1t ma seem to some people a very
small matter; but it is small only if
the innocent pleasure of thousands Of
our people is small.
Mr.. Van Worst Square and Bergen
Avenue, Esq, may not like II
melancholy hand organ. On the
whole we prefer ItaAan opera ur-
selves. But there are fifty thousand
people in Jersey City who never hear
any other music.
@1t is true Mr.. Holden is going to
give five or six concerts this summer
in Van Worst Park--for a c~onsidera-
tion. But how many people will hear
these?
Now. to our mind, there is some
thing not unbeautiful in the hand
organ scene in the early twilight.
While the patient artist grinds out
..After the Ball" or Daisy Bell"-the
very same airs, good friends. that you
enjoy on the roof sagarden-the little
children dance on the side walk; beau
tifuily they dance, toe. The older
folk look on and beat time with their
HEELS and presently pay their hum BILE
subscriptions for box seats in the
second story windows, or orchestra
chairs On the front stoop. We re-
gard this as Innocent, heaitlful, joy
GUS. We consider the proposal to
prohibit it by law heartless and
brutal. The man who urges it is
lacking in imagination and kindly
sympathy, and the best that can be
said of him is that he is a sort OF
diatonic Gradgrind who wants all the
world to dance to his own selfish and
eonceited pipe.
