THAT EXCISE BOARD.
Interested Citizen Makes Some
Pertinent Remarks.

Jersey City, Oct. 9, 1908. :
To the Editor of ''The Jersey City News
On street car today I noticed a card
asking why Mayor Pagan failed to reap
point Messrs. Dowling and O'Brien as
Democratic members of the new Excise
Board. This question is pertinent to the
cause of good government, and its answer
by Mayor Pagan is awaited by all who
took an active interest in excise matters
and were impressed with the honorable
and fearless manner that characterized
every official act of these two gentlemen.
Perhaps it would not be amiss for me to
suggest some reasons for the Mayors ac-
tion and leave Him to answer the same.
First-Edward Fry, Chairman of the
Republican County Committee, who was
a member of the Excise Commission, was
placed in a berth at the governments ex-
pense of $500 per annum. Probably
for the reason he could not dominate the
Board
Second-Edgar B. Bacon, who worked
hand-in-hand with Dowling and O'Brien
for the amelioration of excise conditions,
proved too strenuous for his party man
ayers and was quietly taken off the Ex-
else Board and placed on the Board of
Finance.
Third-Dowling and O'Brien could
not be reached by the Republican man
ayers, and it is said they snubbed the pol
iticians for being over interested in excise
affairs, and it is said that they snubbed
Colonel Dickinson for trying to influence
the Board ON the question of license
transferring, in the interest of the brew
cries.
Fourth-Dowling and O'Brien wiped
out some disorderly places to which some
Republicans were closely attached, prin-
cipal among whom was Joseph Gala
CHER, who conducted the notorious "spot'
on Grove street, and who was and is a
member of the Republican County Exc
cutive Committee, and who was candi-
date for the Assembly on the same ticket
that Mayor Fagan was elected
Fifth-Dowling and O'Brien, it is ru-
mored, were considered too partisan by
the Republicans, probably because they
refused to pound the saloonkeepers be-
cause the Liquor Dealers Association en-
dorsed Zeller for Sheriff and condemned
Toffey. Or were they partisans because
they could not be used by the Republican
managers?
Sixth-Mr. Mayor, if they were good
enough to start with, why were they not
good enough for you to end with?
Did you consider that their strenuous
administration would lose you certain
few votes on election day?
Did you turn them down because the
breweries exacted their heads or the loss
of their donation to your campaign fund?
Did you turn them down because they
were gentlemen with high sense of hons
or, to put in their places men of low char
acter, as one Of your ppointees proved
himself to be short time ago in the sa-
loon of reputable citizen?
Did you turn them down to put in their
places those who will persecute all sa-
loonkeepers who antagonize you on cleo
tion day
Answer. Mr. Mayor. answer.
