TRENTON, Jan. 80, 18s5.-The House
gave up yesterday afternoons session to
the Referendum cranks. At three P. M.
It met as a Committee of the Whole. Mr..
Codding occupied the chair. The first
speaker was Mr.. William A. Cotter. of
Bloomington, who explained the Referen-
dunn scheme. The adoption of the ref
erendum resolution, he said; would do
away with placing in the State Consti-
tuition restrictive clauses. The r~eferen-
dunn would have obviated the necessity
of the people uprising against the race
track bills in 1893. The new. scheme, he
continued, gives the people of munich
palities the right to pass upon the acts
of their aldermen or councilmen, and if
it were in force years ago it would have
saved the city of Newark at least $40, 600,
900, given away to p tons in fran
chises.
Congressman Thomas McEwan said
the adoption of the referendum was
merely going back to the original feat
ures of Democratic government. The
people, he said, can be trusted. and no
harm will ever come from continuing to
trust them.
Mr.. Eltwood Pomeroy, of Newark, sec
rotary of the Direct Legislation League
of New Jersey. vas the last speaker,
and made an elaborate argument in
favor of direct legislation. The former
and proper feeling of reverence for the
legislator as exercising the noblest func-

disgust and dread. and the people are
beginning to dread and despise them
Nowadays 1t is often felt a disgrace to

DISTRICT COURT WIT.

We took occasion, yesterday, to refer
to the sport some of the attorneys-at-iaw
indulge in at the expense Of the police
men who are called as witnesses in
minor cases in the Sixth District Court.
Here are couple of samples OF the
peurile wit that the policemen are made
the victims of:
IL was the case of woman who was
before the court on the charge Of street
walking.
The policeman who was on the stand
testified to the strolls of the unfortunate
woman. He was duly cross-examined
by counsel for the defense who wanted
to know why the arrest was not more
promptly made. The policeman ex-
planned that he had to wait for another
officer so that his testimony might be
endorsed by second witness. Tnen,
in describing the actions Of the wom,n,
which brought her under the notice Of
the law, the policeman testified that he
had observed her putting up" TO a
r--nher Of men.
"Did she put up to your demanded
the attorney Of the policeman-witres
"she did not" replied the witness.
"Why didn't she--didn't you give her
a chance?'
al am not that kind of a man." re-
piled the officer with some warmth.
"ohl You aren't, aren't your" re-
sponded the attorney, sarcastically. And
the examination closed, while u compla-
cent grin at HE own brilliancy remained
on the attorneys face.
The other day. Captain JOSEPH MARS.
TON OF the Fourth Station, was on the
stand in liquor case. There had beer
some spotter testimony put in and ther
the captain was put on the stand ant
gave his evidence.
Were the spoilers sober?" inquired
counsel for defense when thecaptain hat
concluded.
"They were" answered the captain.
:" And were you sober, tooy" demand
ed the attorney with four-ply grin n
the humor Of the questionable real wi
a which may be appreciated by thcs'
that know that Captain MARsToS b ,
