Same Principle Applied.

For many years preceding the time
that Secretary of the Navy William

incoming of every national admins
tration was confronted with the mod
ern navy problem. but each one as
signed the duty to the future on the
ground that the country could not
afford the innovation. But Mr.. Whit
ney concluded that the people of the
present century might happen 10 have
as much need for an up-to-date navy
as the coming generations, and had
just as much right to it, and, in fact,
one of the duties to coming ages
might be TO have that navy, not in
the future, but now. The consequence
was that the modern navy was start.
ed, and not decade had passed until
the force of events in the history of
the world demonstrated how much we
needed that navy. not only in shaping
our own ends rs nation, but in shap-
ing for the future.
When Mayor Medill took hold of the
reservoir project he was moved by
the same idea that moved the nation
TO make itself secure, and he had the
courage OF conviction TO put what he
was cOnNlnceu WAS IN the interest OF
the people of today. through. Had he
been unable to solve the financial part
of the undertaking as cleverly as he
did, it is doubtful if the people would
not even then have sustained him in
going ahead in the discharge of plain
duty on some other feasible lines. But
Mayor Medill found a way to provide
the people with that which they have
so long stood in need of without in

the future

Director McNally of the Jersey City
Board of Freeholders called the atten-
ton of the Board yesterday evening to
the fact that the State is about TO take
proceeding with a view of making tho

entered. The following preamble and
resolution were adopted
whereas. 1t has come to the knowl-
edge of the Board that application is

of this State to commence legal proceed
ings which may result in making the
draw bridges of the Newark Plank Road
Company over the Hackensack and Pas

Whereas. No public interests require

formulate the charges against the two
lawyers.
The Attorney General has also under
consideration the question of the produc-
ton of the transcript of the evidence sub
mitted at the trial before Justice Lippin-
colt. Mr.. Grey will not only present the
charges to the Supreme Court, but IN all
probability will ask that the Supreme
Court shall order the use of the trans
script. which course would simplify the
proceedings of the Bar Association, be-
cause there is no process by which Beck
and Pidgeon, the principal witnesses for
the State, can be compelled to attend.
These individuals are in New York and
it is said dread another ordeal on the
stand.
These two points will be submitted,
and the Supreme Court will then request
the Acknowledgement to prosecute the de-
PENDANTS. Testimony will be taken be-
fore a Supreme Court Commissioner and
the other side will be allowed perhaps
thirty days to put in their evidence. When
all the testimony is in the supreme Court
will then pass or the guilt or innocence

Attorney General Grey will depute some
