NO QUORUM.
Finance Boards Discussion
Of the Sewer Bond Issue
Postponed Fielder's
Bills.

The Finance Board did not meet yes
terday on account of a Quorum not being
present. President Ringle and Commits
sioner Daudt were on hand, but the other
members failed to appear. The Board
was to have discussed the proposed issue
of between three and four thousand dol
lars worth of bonds to raise money for
and the Jackson avenue sewerage sys-
TINS, and for the laying of new and wa
ter mains in lower Newark avenue and
several other portions of the city. These
improvements are said to be imperative,
and new legislation is necessary to give
the Board the power to issue bonds to
raise the amount of money required
Assemblyman Fielder, on Tuesday
night, introduced bill in the House au-
thorizing the city to issue S150,0O0 in
bonds for the new water mains. He had
dlSO al duulHlSlfdll0H Ddl authorizing
the issue of $150,ooO in bonds for the re-
construction of the above,aamed sewer
systems, but did not introduce it because
it did not show the change it would make
in existing laws. Corporation Counsel
Record was in Trenton yesterday looking
after the interests of the bills.
A copy of the resolution passed by the
Board of Education at last Thursday
nights meeting requesting the Board of
Finance to appropriate 81 200 to pay the
salary of a truant officer is in the hands
of the Finance Board. President Ringle
said yesterday that the members have
not as yet discussed the subject. He
could not tell what the Board would do
in the matter.

A sIadman.s De1usfen.

Dean Pigou tells the following stol-
of brilliant man who lost his mine
temporarily through overwork and was
confined in an English asylum: His
delusion was that his stomach was full
to replehon of rats. There was n
room for anything else. Hood said t
me, GO and talk with him and lea,
up to the subject of rats founC
him, as is very commen, perfectly sane
on every subject but this. After seme
conversation said to him, feigning not
to know who he was: You seem to be a
very well informed man. Have you
given your attention to natural history
because I notice that the question is
being discussed as to whether the spe-
cies Of the genus rat called the Norwe-
gian still exists? Instantly he replied,
oh, certainly and unbuttoning his
dress, said, Every known species of
rat, sir, Is here in my stomach and
iocaIizing the rat with his finger, said:
Here in this part Of my stomach is a
Norwegian rat. You can assure your
friends that as long as / am alive no
species can die Under the kind and
humane treatment of Bethlehem he
was soon az work again and had, Of
course, no recollection Of his delusion."

to its followers and to the masses of the
American people. Let that message be
expressed in language easily understood,
unconfused by evasion and untouched by
the taint of jugglery. Obsolete issues
and questions no longer challenging pop
uiar interest should be manfully aban-
doned.'
Mr.. Cleveland urges tariff reform,
pleads for economy in the expenditure of
public money, and charges the opposition
with having made promises and broken
them.
He arraigns the Administrations
Philippine policy and refers to the 18TH
mian Canal in these words
''The Democratic party has been con-
sistent and unremitting in its advocacy
of an interoceanic canal, and has with
the liveliest satisfaction looked forward
to the day when such highway of COM
Government, would be contributed by
America to the worlds progress and civ
ilization. 1t is nevertheless not within
the mandates of the Democratic creed
that, even in consummating so noble an
enterprise as this, the territorial rights
of any other nation should be disregard
ed, or that our own national good faith
should be subjected to reasonable suspic-
ions
Mr.. Cleveland concludes as follows
SAT such a tome as this the Democrat
ic party cannot with honor undertake the
battle of the people except under leader
that not only represents its best tradi-
tions, and purposes, but fully realizes
what is menat by the tremendous issues
of the conflict, and his selection should
not depend upon so small a considera-
ton as the locality whence he comes.
''The Democracy's opportunity is al
ready in sight but only i a campaign
waged in reliance upon the peoples love
of country and devotion to national
morality, under leadership that person
ifies these sentiments will be round the
Democracy's hope.
