In his letter to the Editor OF the Jour
nal" published in that paper on satur-
day. Mr.. Gilbert Collins nailed Mr.. Joseph
A. Dear to the cross for one of the gross
est pieces of malevolence that any public
man in this city has ever been guilty of.
In a letter to Goo Goo Club No. j, read
at the meeting of that body Thursday
night. MI. Dear wrote
This state is No. 2l2 on the calendar
Of the Supreme Court of the United
way, but it is hoped that it will be reach
ed about February or March next, and
when 1t is reached the Court will hear
1t without any delay, and should the
ably be given against it. OF course, that
is a contingency that cannot be antici-
pated. Ex-Mayor Cleveland and ex-City
Counsel Edwards have the case in charge.
OF course, as Mr.. Collins suggests. the
interjection of the late Mr.. Cleveland's
name was a mere slip of the pen. But
no such excuse can be made for the
mean, contemplate and cowardly insin-
uation that this case was likely to go
ny 16a ~ 4A441 Noo Gal o1
tional stab in the back for the counsel
retained by the city. 1t is absolutely
gratuitous and unmeaning from any other
point of view, and we have not the slight
est doub about it's motive n purpose.
That it accomplished it's wicked design
is shown by the Journals own report
of the subsequent proceedings
President Holt remarked that the suit
should not be permitted to go by defau!t,
as the matter seemed to be in the hands
of former officials who have no great
interest in aiding the present admins
tration.'
Mr.. Hughes asked if ex-Mayor Collins
was not engaged in the case.
Mr.. Holt replied that Mr.. Collins was
retained only in the argument of the case
before the State courts.
Mr.. Hughes suggested that the presi-
dent communicate with Mr.. Dear and re-
quest him to closely watch the case
so that 1t should not go by default, and
the city be deprived of a valuable grant.
Mr.. Hughes is a humorist, with a broad
and f~arcical vein. There Is something
exquisitely ludicrous about the idea of Mr..
Dear watching the case n preventing
it from going by default in the United
States Supreme Court.
But Mr.. Bears malignant shot did its
work. 1t stirred up distrust and hostility
in the association towards the counsel in
was what Mr.. Dear wanted to do.

The lingo Programmes.

1t is amusing to glance over the wide
field of hostilities and acquisitions which
the jingos have laid out for this coun-
try
account of Venezuela.
Also on account of Alaska.
Also on account of the seals.
We should go to war with France on
account of Waller.
We should embroil ourselves with Spain
on account of Cuba.
We should take a hand in the Turkish
question IN account of our missionaries.
We should be much sterner with China
on the same account.
We hould rebuke Germany for over
shadowing our influence in Samoa.
We should insist on new treaties with
Japan, designed to prevent our ruin by
Japanese cheap labor.
We should annex Hawaii.
We should ask Russia what she means
py refusing passports 10 our jewish cfl-
zens to revisit their old homes.
Probably we have forgotten one or two
other things, but they will all be arrayed
In the Republican platform next year in

campaign.
But the programme is a neat one as

No office within the gift of the
county requires more personal at
tention or the exeI ton of more
eternal vigilance than that of the
shrievalty. A man to occupy this
position must be possessed of firm
ness, vigilance and utter fearless
ness. In Sheriff Campbell, Bexar
county has this kind of a man.
DUTY" is his watch word, and
on that line he always continues,
never swerving from the most diff
cult task. The executive work of
this department falls upon NJ.
