WANTS AN APOLOGY.
The Red Gear Defied In His Own
Burgh.

There is now before our esteemed
Chief Justice complaint, which
may cause serious rupture between
the Judiciary and the Executive on
the big island of Hawaii
Attorney Enoch Johnson in an
address to the jury at the recent
term Of the Fourth Circuit Court
has put his legal hoofs on the Off
cial corns Of the red Gar OF Hilo,
who, smarting under the pain, de-
mauds an apology.
The trouble between the attorney
and sheriff could only happen in
place where men Of the Andrews
caliber are employed. The case
which leads to the row is simply
this;
A Japanese was robbed of a sum
of money, which he claimed amount
ed to 1873 80, OF which $50 were in
gold and So so in silver. The alleged
culprit was captured by the myrmi-
dous of the Gar, and was charged
with larceny of $3.50 While in Jail
the man was induced to sign an
affidavit, which virtually was con-
fession OF the theft, and which being
allowed as evidence by the Circuit
Judge, condemned the man in the
mind Of the jury.
The Japanese who was robbed
stated on the witness stand that he
was he loser OF $3.50. Attorney
johnson in his address to the jury
for the defendant, suggested that it
was, to say the least, peculiar that
the complaining witness had sworn
to a warrant for the arrest Of man
who had stolen 1913 80, and that the
indictment should be larceny Of oaly
$3.50. He wanted to know what had
become OF the $35, and inquired
whether that sum was in the posses
sion Of the police.
The Gar objected to the implied
insnuation that his police would do
away with 1876 (when there was $3S 80
in sight, and he asked the court to
force the attorney to render an
apology to the police of Hawaii gen.
orally and to the Gar especially.
The judge after listening to the
harangue of the offended officer
ordered the clerk Of the court to
put the matter on record and fur
nsh the G, j. with copy, leaving
to that learned jurist the question
of how to make attorneys apologize,
when they won't do it.
We recommend to our friend, the
Marshal, the adoption of the method
OF his beloved sheriff making The

MIGHT BLOW UP SCHOOL.
No. 9's Boilers Cannot Be Used in
Their Present Condition.

That there is no truth in the wicked as
~sertion, is most amply proven by the
official report, which we print in another
column. The boilers have been examined
within a fortnight, by experts, in the or
binary routine of business, and the report
is on file in the Mayors office showing
that they are in perfect condition-sound
and safe as the day when they were
put in.
The public will recall that No. 9 is a
new schoo 1t was opened for the first
time in September, 1896 All probability,
apart from the report of the recent in
spection, would suggest that the boilers
could not have become dangerous in two
years wear.
NO doubt this INSCRIPTIONS fake will
lay its effect. Parents will fear to send
their children to the school. There may
be a panic or two, through the winter.

WEDNESDAY. AUGUST II, 1898.
This paper is Democratic IN principles
and is Independent i n its vie,0s on all local
questions.
The State Committee Meetings.

The Republican State Committee has
heen commanded by its bosses to meet
In Trenton next Tuesday for the purpose
OF selecting a date for the G-ubernaforiai
Convention. BY that time it is expected
that the Democratic Committee will have
met, given some idea OF What its policy
will be during the coming campaign, and
dxed the date for the State Convention.
It is clearly the intention of the Repub
licans to wait until the Democrats nave
chosen their candidate and formulated
the principles upon which they win go
before the people and ask their suf-
frages before they produce their candi-
date and platform.
There is much cowardice and dishon-
esty about this proceeding. The Repub-
licans know very well that they have
often repudiated the principles which
they have adopted in convention; they
know that those principles which their
orators on the stump, during campaigns,
have solemnly pledged their candidates
to maintain. have beer buried beyond
resurrection as soon as the election was
over and the candidates fairly ~ensconced
in office; they know hat the people place
little, If any, reliance upon their plat
forms, and, therefore, their only hope Of
success lies in some blunder which their
opponents may commit. 1t was for this
reason that they deferred calling their
convention until after that of the Demo-
Gratis. They hope thai the latter will do
something on which they can make a
fight without ~pledging themselves to
promises which the voters know they will
never keep.
AT the last meeting of the Democratic
State Committee, at which the matter of
fixing a date for the Gubernatoria Con-
vention was under discussion. one of the
members suggested that the day be fixed
subsequent to that of the Republican
Convention. This was Immediately
frowned upon n the suggestion repudi-
ated. The Democratic party has no ne
cessity to resort to any such subterfuge.
It is a party of principles, not of expe-
dents, and when it enunciates those prin-
ciples it goes out manfully before the
people with them and stands or falls upon
them.

NEW FIRE MIGRANTS FOR AoBoKEN
Efforts Being Made to Guard Against
a Disastrous ConAagration.

Work on the erection Of new fire hy-
drants in Hoboken is being rapidly
pushed by the Water Commissioners,
During the past two weeks fifteen hy-
Grants nave been placed in various sec
lions of the city. Many of the fire hy-
drants are being placed on lower Hudson
street and upper Washington street.
There are twenty-nine in all to be erect
ed. 1t is said that a movement is on
foot to have all factory owners place
iron shutters on their factories.
Acting Chief McGrath, of the Fire De-
partment, in talking to a Jersey City
News reporter yesterday said:-"Iron
shutters would be q big support to the
Fire Department. l think that in a city
like Hoboken, which Is absolutely unable
to support a fire department that could
cope with any extraordinary c~onfagration
ali these precautions should be taken to
reduce the possibility Of FIRE 10 a mini
mum. and to render its more easy to COM
bat when ii should break out"
Acting Chief McGrath also said that
CHIEF Applegate had frequently urged
the necessity of some such ordinance.

The Goo Coos. the Mayor and Others

The Goo Goo cranks had a field night
of it, Tuesday night. At one meeting, a
very shrewd gentleman made the remark
able discovery thai the scales and weights
inspection ordinance was a political meas
ure. This is too deep for us. We should
like to have him explain where the poll
tics come in. 1t would seem to us
that If there were politics anywhere, they
were in the Mayors veto, which mean
men might suspect to be a bid for the
votes of dishonest storekeepers, at the
expense Of the general buying public.
At another citizens meeting, a gentle
man-at least he is so quoted in the
"Journal'-pronounced a TRADE against
the Traction Company for not buying
water from the city to sprinkle the
streets. He added
There is not another city in the Union
which would countenance such an OUT
age on the people.
This sounds fine. Pity it is mere false
hood and nonsense. The fact is there is
not a city in the Union which expects
anything so outrageous as this city is
now asking of the Trolley Company; or,
if there is, nobody has discovered It.
One or two cities were specified about a
month ago. but it was shown that the
Goo Goo stories about them were mere
fiction.
If some of the citizens associations
would urge Mayor Hoos to be a little
more progressive, to give a little more
encouragement to enterprises calculated
to build up the city, they would do far
more good thar by encouraging him in
Injurious obstruction and futile obsti-
macy, without warrant in law or reason

certiorari to remove TO the Supreme Court

company by the authorities of Eatontown

When the company received permission

TELEPHONE WIRES IN SUMMIT

Justice Lippincott handed down a de-
cision yesterday on the application Of the
New York and New Jersey Telephone
Company for a writ of certiorari to re-
move TO the Supreme Court for review a
resolution of the Town Committee of Sum
nit prohibiting the company from erect
ing poles and string wires through the
town.
The company claimed that an act Of the
Legislature authorized the erection of
poles and the stringing Of wires provided
the wires were at a sufficient elevation
not to interfere with traffic. Justice Lip
pineott said ii was an open question
whether the act of the Legislature does
not give that right and whether the reso-
luton of the Town Committee was not
an Illegal exercise of power.
The writ was granted.
