MAYOR Pagan and Esis Maliguers

The Democratic ticket IN Hoboken
will be headed this spring by Lawrence
Pagan. as candidate for reelection to
the office of Mayor. MIR. Pagan should
have not only the individual support of
his party. but also the votes of all citi-
zens who wish well to their city and who
desire to see fraud and corruktion kept
under foot. There can be no doubt of
all parties should combine to make the
success a triumph as an encouragement
to further generations to do their duty
as the surest way of winning popular
favor and public rewards.
The only opposition to Mayor Pagan in
Hobeken comes from a circular issued
to a limited number of people every
day, which shrieks and bowls and tears
its hair because under the present adj
rninistration its supply of pap from the
municipal nursing bottle has been cut
off. The motives of this publication
If publication it can be cailed-are well
understood by everybody. It has not
and never has had any influence. Its
effort TO defeat Mr.. Pagan in his first
campaign had apparently no effect what
ever, and in the present contest 1T is
even more discredited h it was then.
1t had a candidate before the Democratic
primaries for the Mayoralty nomination.
and the overwhelming defeat which fell
upon him-though he was personally an
excellent candidate-shows how the
Democratic voters of Hoboken feel bound
to do the precise opposite of what this
pern:cious sheet instigates.
There are those who say that this is
a contest to the death between Mayor
Pagan and the proprietors of the cir
cular. Perhaps it is. Well, we have
! only this to say:-Mayor Faga is not
going to die.

On the contrary, with the usual gentle

lutions have been adopted by a number
of them demanding of Governor Altgeld
that the sentence of death prescribed

More water FasIacies.


Here IS a specimen of the logic by
which the obstructive are ~endeavoring
to prevent the city from getting a new
supply Of wafer
If their bid is a bona hde business
proposition, grounded in good faith, with
an hcness intention to secure inc con-
tract ana execute us proVlsloas, eIAt y
all the more r6a=0a why the people OF
Jersey City should hesitate to make such
a contract. Tnege must baa biz prohs
f5reien s-epEtaI:ets would not be in such
mad haste TO secure tie contract
This Is taken from an obscure local
paper.
Really a cause must be in a bad way
when it regards honesty, good faith
and bona ide usine intentions as
arguments against its opponent The
ordinary man would consider all these
things as excellent reasons for entering
into a contract.
As fer the profit, OF course there must
be q profit in sight in supplying Jersey
City with water. Who would advance
the necessary capital and tai all the
responsibility without hope of RETURN
The city is guaranteed that the profit
is not unreasonable by the fact that
there are competing bidders. But, un-
doubleday, any bidder who wins expects
a profit.
The sheet which publishes the above
slogan specimen Of good sense proceeds
to praise Mr.. Reilly's plan. It says
Mr.. Reilly shows that the plant can
would be to give Jersey City al the
water Il Will need at no increased cost
over what t world have TO pay the con-
tractors at the end OF twenty-five years
Mr.. Reiny proposes to give the city
for $4,000 just what the other con-
tractors propose to give it for Sc, 800 600.
Mr.. Reilly proposes that the city fur
n.sh two-thirds of the capital, or $1,000
eco, while the other bidders propose to
put up all the capital necessary and
carry the works for a quarter of century,
merely drawing from the city for metered
water such a price as viii pay a fair
interest on their investment. If cheek
would pay for water works, Mr.. Reilly
would be the boss bidder, but as $500,
900 is all the cash he thinks ne can
raise to carry out a ss,5oo,ooo enterprise
he is hardly in it.
Then the old cry is raised of more
legislation IN June, to enable the city
to build its own works. One would think
January. February and March gave evi-
dence enough of what might be expect
ed from the Legislature. Anyway. the
city cannot build water works. because
1t cannot bond itself for the necessary
sum without losing all the benefits OF
the Martin Act.
