The Jersey City news. (Jersey City [N.J.]) 1889-1906, 1899-05-05

Having succeeded in stirring up the
the tribune seems willing to try its
hand at brewing diseord in the Democ-
racy as we'll. This morning, it has a
story to the effect that Mayor Pagan
proposes entering the field as a ~shrievalty
candidate in opposition to the man or
men whom Mr.. Robert Davis may prefer
to see nominated for that office. This
cock and bull story it dresses up with
the additional information that the Hobo
ken Council, in the event of Mr.. Fagan's
election. as Sheriff, would select Mr..
stuhr, his just defeated rival, to fill his
~unexpired term as Mayor.
This Is a very ingenious story. Unfor-
tunately. there is not a word of truth
in it. Mr.. Pagan, we believe, has no
more notion of running for Sheriff than
he has of running for President. He
could not antagonize the plans of the
county leaders without ingratitude, see
ing that he was materially helped in the
very tieklish campaign which he has just
made In Hoboken by the county organiza-
fion And we believe hat he has no
will or desire to stir up trouble or cause
d~issension in the party. He is, for the
present, satisfied with the honor which
he enjoys. He is in harmony with Mr..
Davis and the other county leaders, and
they are all friendly to him..
In another column, we print Mr.. Fa-
xan's emphatic denial of the story. This
Is sufficient to settle 1t. But even with
out the denial, the inherent improbability
of the yarn is SO great that it is hard
to think the Tribune printed it in good
faith. We have little doubt that it is
a falsehood deliberately concoeted In the
hope of creating suspicion and dissension
among the Democratic party leaders.
Mr.. HENRY BYRNE, in an interview,
yesterday, said he was not losing any
sleep over ssThe News" account of the
way In which his employees do not sweep
the streets. This is quite characteristic
Of Mr.. Byrne. He has long been an ex-
ample, of the public-be-damned style OF
doing business in this city. In his ca
pacity as street contractor, he contribute
ed largely. seven years ago, to the vic
tory of the Republican party in this city.
tt would be more becoming in him, when
an enterprising newspaper gives him q
good tip, to stay awake a night or TWO
and take OF it, instead Of as
Stunning a naughty tone, and announcing
lis intention of staying asleep.
Perhaps, II he does not wake up, Mayor
Hoos and the street and Water Commits
sioners may prod him 2 little.

pFehension. 1t is beginning to suggest

stated that our government regards the
protected relief OF our meat from op-
pressive discrimination as an absolute
essential to the negotiation Of any sort
OF reciprocal arrangement, either under
the terms of the Dlngley act or under
the general authorization to make trade
treaties. Therefore It is expected that
the negotiations which have progressed
on and on during the past few months
looking to the making OF reciprocity
arrangement will be practically sus-
pended pending favorable action by the
German government on the meat In

Nearly everybody you meet will re-
gard it as a kind OF insult TO be asked
il they have weak lungs. All seem to
have solid faith in the soundntss OF
their own breathing machine. In cases
OF trouble they will admit there is a
heavy cold" "a touch Of bronchitis"
or even "a spell OF asthma" but as to
wcak or unsound lungs. never, NEVER.
Even the poor eonsunrptive, who statee-
ly speaks without coughing, whose
cheeks are wasted, hollow and bear the
hectic flush of doom, will. assure you
with glistening eyes that his cold IS on
the mend and he will be all right when
the weather. changes.
II is simply terrible to think how far
We may be guilty By our indifference to
the lung troubles of,,hose near and dear
to US. II is also sad thought that, we
may hug delusion as to our own health
that VIC only get rid OF when life itself
must pay the forfeit.
Nobody can afford to think lightly
Of lung troubles. Nobody can afford to
be mistaken about their possible dam
gers. Nobody can afford to neglect
them. or 'let them wear out" or get
better in the spring" or any other TOM
foolery that leads only to wreck and
ruin. Lung troubles don't move SACK
ward. Weak lungs don't grow strong
BY ,hemselves-you mist heal them
and strengthen them. and rid them Of

suicide. Either you most cure sou.

Councilman August Hepc will intro
duce q resolution In council tonight.

pers. In effect. the resolution, will say
that Benwood has been unjustly dealt
with by the press In relation TO the
strike. but what will br accomplished
by Its passage Mr.. Hepe was not pre-
pared 10 state. He Is of the opinion That
there was Just as much disorder In
Wheeling, and for further proof that
Benwood Is no worse than other towns
he points TO the fact that the street car
company doesn't run cars to Martins
Ferry. The location OF the barns In
th!s county and the excitement at that
part OF town in the early days OF the
strike gave Benwood considerable noto-
rlsty. As did distractions on the tracks
here and the treatment car passengers
received at the ferry landing. The

ton or others may suppose.

MEAT INSPECTION.
German Relchstag Committee
Against Government Bill.
BLOW AMERICAN INTERESTS.
"Embalmcd" Beef Inquiry in This
Country Made Germans Distrustrnl
Of tho American Packers Honesty.
Action Received in Washington
With Grave apprehension.

q BERLIN. May SIT Is authoritative
~ stated that the committee OF the
reichstag to whom was referred the
meqt inspection bill. which was sub
stantially agreed upon between the i'm
perial cabinet and the United States
ambassador here. Mr.. Andrew D. White,
has reported against the measure and
In favor OF a bill 30 hostile to Ameri-
can interests that the government Will
probably refuse to sanction II.
The most unfortunate circumstances,
as regards American interests In the
matter Of the meat inspection bill, was
the fact that there were insistent dec
larations In the United States that en-
balmed and poisonous meats had been
supplied to the troops in Cuba. Rep
resentatives OF the German land-own-
Ing Interests loudly declared that Il
the Americans sent poisonous meat to
their own soldiers they would certainly
send It to Germany.
A bad result Is that the bill, as re-
ported back. provides for examination
and inspection of American meats i'm
possible to enforce without utterly de-
stroying the American trade with Ger
many.
J The bill, as remodeled by the reich
stag committee. also proposed to ex-
clude from Importation hams, hard and
soft sausages, and chopped meats and
fresh meats must come in whole car
cases or continuous parts.
Tho United States embassy and the
German government still hope that bet
ter counsel will prevail when the bill
comes up for discussion in the open
relchstag on Its second reading. though
the chances for the enactment OF tho
government measure are very slim.
