lature meets. What? The Legislature
can pass no bill calculated to vitiate the
conditions of a contract. And even If
it were not constitutionally barred on
that score. what could it be expected to
do with a Republican Senate?
The Jersey City Company proposes urg-
ing the court to fix a day peremptorily
on which the aking of evidence must
cease. and a day on which argument
shall be held. This is reasonable and
proper. The interests OF the city re-
quire that the questiss shall be settled.
The company has a right to a speedy
judgment, one way or the other. There
is no advantage in delav to anyone. and
the Judges would do we'll to forbid any.
The total collapse of the prosecutions
case has impressed even the most casual
observer. The city authorities showed
thorough familiarity with the whole sub
ject. They showed tina they had
thought much upon it and reached sound
conclusions by careful reasoning. All at
ternpts TO bring out evidence of collision
fell fiat. Not the most triaing sign of
it was perceptible In any part of the
testimony. All the sensational charges
a punctured balloon. They simply drop
ped out OF sight when brought to the
test of an oath and a stenographer. 1t
is easy to yapor at long range. bur it is
a totally different matter to give the
empty imaginings of malice sufficient
backbone to stand UP in court.
But The funniest thing of all is the
disappearance of Who Is Kent? The
great Evening Journal expert" has no
mere figured in the proceedings than a
rag doll. He has not been called as a
witness. He has not been quoted as an
authority. His name has not been mem
toned: his report has not been cited;
his tables have moi been referred to.
He has been a cipher so small that no
body has even thought of him. Poor
Kent! Poor Journal" that fell into
that wretched quicksand of obstruction,
malice, stupidity, ignorance, venality and
utter falsityl
Though he has not been alluded to or
even thought of. the evidence has not
been without it's bearing upon Kent's
report. 1t has reduced it to mere lint
an incoherent mass of absurdities, and,
with it, the Rockaway scheme which it
SO much favored has been demolished,
utterly, totally and forever. If it has
had no other result. this certiorari hear
ing has demonstrated once and for all
the futility of all river schemes of water
supply. No matter who the purveyor
may be. whether the Jersey City Com
pany or a possible Tor impossible) State
Water Board of the dim future. the final
source of Jersey City's permanent water
supply must be found in the mountain
regions beyond the regions of riparian
population.

THERE can be no doubt but Commits

Elections laid himself open to the risk
of indictment yesterday when he wan

PACKING FRUIT IN BoRAX.

Frank M. Smith, the borax king, be-
lieves he has solved the problem of
preserving fresh fruit SO 1t can be put on
the Eastern market in a satisfactory
condition. For some time he has been
experimenting with borax. and finds the
ingredient Of that salt peculiarly adapted
for p~recluding vegetable decomposition.
The discovery is the result of a sugges-
ton made to MIR. Smith one one day
while %lunching with a friend. The gem
tlemen was discussing the success that
had attended the experiment of borax-
ing of fresh meat, when MIR. Smith was
asked why he had never tried preserving
fruit in the same way. He said it had
never occurred to sim, but that after
moor he gave the subject SO mach
thought that as soon as he returned to
his home in East Oakland he packed
several pounds of cherries in a box of
powdered borax. This box was placed
in the cellar, and alongside of it he
put a large glass dish filled with the same
kind of fruit. Then he waited develop
ments. The next day he visited the eel
Ter and found the cherries in the dish
they were so decomposed that 1t was
necessary to throw them way. In or
der to make q good test he determined
not to disturb the packed cherries for
three weeks. At the termination of tina

THE CITY ELECTION.
The Approaching Municipal Contest
Prospective Candidates.

The Approaching Municipal Contest-The
Prospective Candidates.
The approaching municipal election
which takes place OH July Sth, for May
or, City Counsellor and six Aldermen
two from each ward, is beginning to at
tract much attention. The present coun-
sci is composed of six democrats and two
republicans. 1t is thought the colored
man will be renominated, as the third
ward, in which he lives, is largely COM
posed of colored voters.
Mr.. &. M. Jones, the other republican
who represents the third ward, it is said,
will be opposed for denomination, by
Mr.. Herman Ellenhausen. Mr.. Jones
is serving his second term as alderman.
For mayor, two names have been promi-
nently mentioned-that of Mayor John
III. Thomas and Alderman Allen Nc
Cullough. 1t is said Mayor Thomas
does not desire denomination, but bis
friends will insist on his accepting. Two
years ago he received 176 majority over
his republican opponent, Daniel r. Ran
dali. This was the largest majority that
had been given to a democratic mayoi
in recent years. Samuel Jones, of the
firm of Jones 81 Franklin, is prominent
ly mentioned as the candidate for the
republican nomination.
On the alderman ticket, it is said there
will will be several changes. Mr.. Chas.
G. Feldmeyer, of the first ward, it is un-
derstood, will not serve another term,
but will give way to some other demo
crat and run the chances of being cleo
ted city treasurer, winch Office he de-
sires. Mr.. Lewis Gardiner, Of the sec.
ond ward, says he is not a candidate foI
another term. Mr.. S. II. Brewer and
Elmer Parkinson aforementioned as prob
able candidates in Mr.. Gardeners place
should he insist Oh not serving.
For city counsellor, Mr.. X. s. Riley
the present incumbent, will have no op
position. The election is a little over
six weeks off, and in the meantime the
friends of the different candidates are al
work making sentiment for their res
pective candidates. The republicans, il
Is said, will make desperate effort this
year to capture the city, but their hope
in this is too forlorn to give them much
consolation.
