The Jersey City news. (Jersey City [N.J.]) 1889-1906, 1897-01-09

H Trenton potters were down al
Washington. yesterday, demanding their
share of the blood money which the Re
publican party proposes TO wiring from
the American taxpayer. tt show the
monstrous falsity of their claims, one
need only quote n statement. It was
made ty one John W. Morgan, and it was
to the effect that, prior TO the passage
of the Wilson bill. there had been no
trouble in the trade for ten years. The
fact is there was a bitter and prolonged
strike after the passage of the Mckinley
bill and caused by the advantage taken
by the bosses of the monopoly afforded
by that infamous measure to form a
trust and cut rag all along the line.
The Trenton potters must think the
public have short memories.

Disgussing Phases of the Chapman
S~euaatfon.


One or two of the buzzard style of news
papers are deliberately classifying the evi.
dence in the Chapman trial for the pur-
pose of j~ustifying the P~arkhurstian action
of the policeman as directed against men
of respectable position. who are the nat
ural prey of such Journalism. The
Worlds" report, this morning, is one
of the most infamous examples of garb-
ling that we have ever seen. There are
certain things which they fail to print
on the alleged ground that they are I'M
At for publication. The fact is the things
are absolutely innocent, or at least they
are just as innocent as a thousand things
that are publicly given on the stage
every day in the week..
Fortunately there is one paper in New
York which. does moi garble the news.
Whatever its editorial opinions may be,
the Sun. prints the truth, the whole
truth and nothing but the truth. This
morning it prints five columns of steno-
graphic report of the proceedings in the
the thirgs which the World" was too
delicate and refined to print. 1t is need
less to say that there is not a vestige of
reason for not printing them. Besides. it
exposes. with merciless truth, the asser-
tions that Mr.. Seeley made any COM
promising revelations in his statement to
Superintendent conifn.
The suns report. to any rational per-
son, completely supports the theory that
Chapman's raid was a b~lackguardly out
rage, un5ustifed by anything which did
a place at the Seeley dinner or which
was planned TO take place there. 1t is
plain that it was not only plackguardly
in itself but conducted in a r~uffianly man
ner. The threat that Chapman uttered
to the Routt girl to persecute her out
sid for daring to use her glib tongue
upon him should be sufficient to break
him. if there were not ample other rea-
son for kicking him Of the force.
An element in this case which has not
attracted sufficient attention is the in
quisitorial process by which Chapman
and his allies have attempted to make
witnesses give testimony which might in
criminate themselves. This is a viola
tion Of the common law, which should
not be tolerated, especially when applied
to women who do not understand their
rights.

there is reason to think that the fear
