JERSEY C|TY'S FUTURE.
Major Pangborn Tells the
Cosmos Club What It
Should Be.

Major z. K. Pangborn had the floor last
night at the monthly dinner of the Cos
mos Club in the Hotel Washington. and
he told its members something about
what Jersey City should be. Since the
Major has spent many years Ill this city
the members felt that he knew what lie
was talking about.
President R. Heicke president and there
was good attendance.
After pointing out the geographical ad-
vantages of the city, he said that the fa;-
lure to progress and develop as it should
was due to petty politics. He touched on
the loss of the water front which, he said,
was the citys greatest natural advantage.
ut is 100 late" said the Major, .-now to
rectify the mistake. We stood by and all
lowed the State to do as 1t pleased This
neglect avs one of the things that has
retarded the city. There still remains the
west side water front on the Hackensack.
There is quite certain to be between this
city and Newark dense population. The
waste lands will be inhabited by money
making people. Jersey City should look
out and not lose this west side as 1T lost
the Hudson River frontage"
The speaker attributed the neglect in
seizing opportunities for Jersey City $
development to the fact that incompetent
men had hitherto controlled the muni-
cipality; men who had no civic pride.
People who wished to establish busi-
ness here had, he said, been driven away
b, hose who were s'for their own pockets
az the time"
2As to the streets of the city, the Mayor
Said they were mostly built in zigzag
fashion, because the people built to SUIT
their fancy, without regard OF the ap-
pearance of the street. They should
have been restrained by law. Buildings
on Bentley avenue and on Duncan avenue
are illustrations. The buildings will have
ct come down some time so the street
NAV be Strengthened. The city used to
pay for more Improvement than 1t got.
The money went into the pockets or
contractors The city paid $4,000 more
for the paving of Grove street than 1t
ought. 1t had done better in schools in
the last few years than it did formerly,
but there is lack of school room. The
High School building is wholly inade-
ouate.
To remedy this the Mayor said the only
thing to do was for the better classes to
work together and take pride in their
work
There has been much unSust oppo-
eition to the railroads continued the
Major. "The Pennsylvania Railroad has
done much for the city. We should make
the railroads pay their just share of the
taxes. but we should not Unfortunately
abuse them. We have given away valu-
able street franchises. but the improve
ment in public travel is almost inn
measurable.
.sI think eventually this city will be
absorbed the great metropolis of New
York. Circumstances will bring it about
and will force the States of New York
and New Jersey to put out Of the way
whatever is in the way. The arbitrary
distinctions that make two cities or one
community will be swept away.
Brief speeches were made by the mem-
bers and then vote was given to Major
Pangborn for his interesting remarks.

TRENTON, Dec. 10, 19O1.-There was

GRAND Jury Def
Prosecutor and Press Chal-
lenged to Make Sulli-

Public.

1t is understood that the Grand Jury
held dinner last night at the Dukes
House, Hoboken. No invitations were
sent to the newspapers
The Grand Jurors have had prepared
the following statement which they have
all signed
The last September Grand Jury deem
it but justice to the public, as well as to
themselves that they should make some
reply to the criticisms that have been
made upon them for not indicting certain
persons against whom complaints were
made and against whom testimony was
given before the said Grand Jury. At the
outset, it is well that the position occu-
pied by the Grand Jury should be UNDER
stood. The Grand Jury is not at liberty
to divulge the testimony that was given
before it against the persons in question.
It is only by the publication of that tes-
timony that the public could be enabled
to Judge intelligently and accurately of
the conduct of the Grand Jury in the
premises All that it is. in the power Of
the Grand Jury to do is to weigh the
testimony and arrive at conclusion hon

be found or not, and, il in its best judg-

NEW BREAD.

There has always been an objection
to new bread. The learned doctors
who live upon our many ills warn us
against it's use. Dry toast, very stale
bread, but new bread no! Anathema
Maranatha! 1t is almost death to take
it. But new school is coming forward
which tells "a very different tale. You
can revel in hot rolls ad infnitum, If
you will only masticate them and not
bolt them. The whole theory is thus
described by writer in the London
Lancet. He says:
"A slice of stale bread on being brok-
en- with the teeth resolves into more
or less hard gritty particles which, UNI
less they were sOftened by the saliva,
would be almost impossible to swallow.
The particles would lrrltate the throat
and the gullet. The fact is, therefore
that man is compelled thoroughly to
masticate and to impre"nate stale
bread with saliva before he swallows it.
This act, of course, partially digests the
bread and thus makes it in a fit state
for digestion and absorption farther on
in the alimentary tract. This is why
stale bread appears to be more digesti-
BILE than new bread. New bread, on
the contrary, is soft, doughty, or plas-
tic, and there appears to be no neces-
sity to soften it with saliva hence it
escapes the preliminary digestive action
of the ptyalin of the saliva. New bread,
in other words, is in reality 'bolted,
and boiling accounts for many of the
ills arising from dyspepsia. According
ly, hot. rolls should be enjoyed for
breakfast without any fear of dyspepsia
so long as the bread is good and so long
as pains are taken to masticate it
thoroughly"
There is, according to this reasoning,
no special virtue in stale bread as such,
but simply because of it's hard dry
and gritty character. it forces the hui
man been to use his teeth and proper
Iy prepare his food for his alimen AIRY
canal. Instead of invelghing against
hot bread, or new bread and recon-
mending the use OF stale, what the
physician ought to have done IN the
past and ought. to do now is to tell his
patient to masticate his rolls and not
bolt them. But this is such an ordin-
airy common sense rule that probably

WELCOME SOMETIMES.


While the Chinese is thoroughly UNI
welcome in the United States, he is well
coined in the little state of Sarawak.
A wealthy Chinaman has started a
Christian colony of Chinese at Siba, of
whom five hundred have arrived and
gone to work, according to late Consul
lar reports:
There is a grant of fertile tract of
territory sufficient to accommodate
many thousands of persons. BY agree
ment with the governments, they have
very liberal control of their own people
in the settlement of civil cases. The
growth of the poppy and the introduce
ton of opium are to be prohibited; in
toxicating liquors, lotteries, and gam
bling also being excluded, The govern
ment requires them to cultivate the rice
fields according to the customs Of the
Chinese in southern China. the design
being to introduce rice culture on a
large scale as a commercial enterprise.
Thousands of acres of what is believed
to be suitable land for rice culture are
available, and the government is maxi
ing strenuous effort to induce Chinese
immigration in large numbers.
1t is curious that the very nationality
which is so dreaded upon the west
coast of America, should be sought
after with the view Of opening up coun-
try in another quarter of the world.
AS far as Hawaii is concerned, her
Chinese population has served her in
good stead. Large areas of land which
thirty and forty years ago were
swamps, with rushes growing over
them, have been turned into hand
somely paying estates by the industry
and agricultural knowledge of the
Chinaman.
In another way the Chinaman has
commended himself here. He has al
ways been remarkably law abiding
There has never been the trouble with
the Chinese here, that there has been
elsewhere. A San Francisco Chinamar
and an Hawaiian Chinaman are two
different beings. The one is aggressive
tricky, dangerous and heart and SOU
opposed towards the Caucasian. The
other is peaceable, orderly, honest in
his dealings, and liberal in his sub
scriptions to charitable objects pro-
posed for the benfit of his Western
brother. There are probably good rea'
sons for this difference if study of the
subject were made. But without going
in to that, which would be a somewhat
lengthy argument, the fact must be
patent to all that the Chinaman of the
west coast and the Chinaman of Ha-
wall are essentially different in theil
attitude towards the Caucasian race.

neither doctor nor patient would feel
disposed the one to give it, the other
to follow it.
People are for ever saying that the
doctors are humbugs and so in large
measure a very great number are. but
the reason that they are humbugs is
because the world likes to be humbug-
ged There is little chance for physi-
clan to succeed unless he does hum
bug. The more suave and gentle he is
the more he is run after. Humbug is
king and always will be when the ills
of humanity are dealt with.

TUBERCULOSIS.

The complete and hopeful change in
the view taken of tuberculosis could
Scarcely be more succinctly put than it
has been by the Chicago Record-Herald
in the following:
DIR. Allen T. Haight's dispatch on the
tuberculosis congress indicates the
final and complete triumph of the ba-
cillus theory of the cause of consump-
ton. The insistence on the idea that
the most vigorous precautions should
be taken everywhere to prevent splitting
on the sidewalks and streets of cities
and town. the admonition that health
authorities should be advised of every
case of tuberculosis and should rigor-
ously disinfect all tainted places the
whole plea for cleanliness as it is now
put speaks for the infectious charac-
ter of the disease and its spread by
disease germs.
"All the other supposed causes are
reduced to the minor state of contri-
butory influences. Hereditary weak
ness, constitutional defects, climate,
occupation, predisposing local inflam-
nation. may each and every one of
them prepare the field for the fatal
harvest, but the decree of fate is not
issued through them, and there is such
talk of prevention and cure from
physicians of the very highest stand
ing as to give rise to the hope that the
ravages of IT,, greatest enemy to man
kind may be largely checked in the
not distant future.
THE revolution in thought on the
subject during the last fifteen years OF
so since the discovery was announced
has been most remarkable, and it is
of the utmost Importance that what
the doctors preach today should reach
the people, because the control of the
malady rests largely with the latter.
Actual sufferers from the disease should
be made to realize their responsibility
and the watchword of cleanliness
should be sent around the globe. Under
proper regulations every community
may establish effective defenses which
shall assist materially to dimil ish the
possibilities of infection and to cut
down that worlds frightful mortality
| list of three millions annually. The
promise is an inspiration to all human
ity, and especially to those persons
who have been brought up TO look upor
consumption as their probable inheri.
tance.

The arguments over the habeas cor
pus cases are now in full blast To
the locker on the fight seems one in
which each party sees only one side of
the question, and denoun,e s each the
other without allowing for honest
difference of opinion. There are two
sides and two very stron~ sides. The
United States Supreme Court found
that there were two sides and only
took the view it did upon the narrow
and almost casual majority of one. 1t
is absurd to denounce men for holding
opinions ably argued by Chief Justice
Fuller and three other Justices. Where
great men disagree, lesser men may
certainly be allowed to differ and not
have their motives impugned.

1t would seem as if the question of
the validity of the income tax were a
question of whether or not, and if so
to what extent the taxing power of the
legislature is limited. In the several
states this mower is as a rule strictly
guarded and limited by constitutional
provision. AS our theories 90 legislative
power come down from British sources
and through British precedent it would
seem that the taxing power of an Am
erican legislature was like that of the
British parliament, unlimited unless
in our own case by congressional enact
ment, If the taxing power of our legis-
lature has not been limited by the or
ganic act, it would seem as though
questions of inequality or even of dou
BILE taxation could not affect it's vail
dity. AS for inequality of taxation it
would seem as if our poll tax or per-
sonal tax law were liable to that
charge since certain persons and classes
of persons are exempt. Could not the
income tax be sustained as a personal
tax, not based like the poll tax on age
and sex with some exemptions but on
the amount of income?
But the whole question is before the
Supreme Court with able counsel on
each side, so that the layman may feel
that whatever the decision he can ac-
cept it as a decision arrived at after
full, candid, honest and able consider
alton.

The banks which have come to the
rescue of the treasury by the loan of
$15O,OOO have done not only a public SER
vice but a public spirited service. 1t
is coming to be recognized that institu-
lions as well as men have civic duties
and OBLIGATIONS and can render service
to the state. The transaction which
will prove such relief to many holders
of treasury warrants, may fairly be ac-
cepted as a recognition and fulflment
of this responsibility and duty.
