There is a marked improvement In The Jersey

Suppose that the Essex County Grand Jury

deliberately refusing to enforce the Sunday clos
ing laws what then? Would jury drawn from

Some of the appropriations may have been
exceeded by the Trenton Common Council or
its committees but it is entirely wrong to as
sumo that the credit Of the municipality Is not
Of the very best.
Patriotism is UNREASONABLE nowadays ne SAD SAID
patriot is much out or place among PoH-
ticians as a learned physician among quacks.--
(Speech Of Linton Satterthwait
Not by long shot. Patriotism never was
more fashionable than it is to-day, and nowhere
Is this truth more apparent than in New-Jersey.
As a prominent lawyer and citizen Of the State.
Mr. Satterthwait aided in helping the cause OF
patriotism and good government during the
last few years and the magnificent response or
the people surely met his most sangune ex-
nectations. If patriotism had been unfashiona-
ble New-Jersey would yet be in the hands Of the
coal combine and racetrack rascals, and the
Senate conspiracy might have tIiumphed. IL Is
true that unprincipled politicians nave Deeh
permitted to hold sway for time. but the tenn
per end disposition OF the people now Is to scan
closely the credentials Of every man who seeks

arrest Of several men in high standing

They are believed to have skipped,
and kilograms for their apprehension
