The Jersey City news. (Jersey City [N.J.]) 1889-1906, 1905-11-10

Mayor Pagan offers a reward Of $500
for information leading to the identity
of the author of the Pennypacker and Cal
lahan letters sent through the mails ele's-
tion eve. He also is willing to pay for
information that will disclose the print
ing office where the letters were put in
type. This looks a bit strange. Why
should the Mayor offer a reward for iil-
formation which his Hoboken organ
claims to possess? This newspaper in-
sists it had advance knowledge of this
matter and that it knows where they
were printed. Why doesn't Mayor Faga n
get the desired information from the
newspaper Office?

Among the records that are being
broken. this year. there Is no doubt
that the number Of automobile acct
dents will reach m unprecedented
total Nearly every day the news
papers of the big cities have accounts OF
accidents which have been fatal, and
are generally serious either to the per-
sons in the machines or to others. OF
course many OF the accidents are of Il
character against which no provision
can be made. but ii is no ,xaggcration
to say that a large majority of them
are due To tn" wild rccklrssness Of the
man at the wheel. Neatly all auto
mcbilists enjoy speeding at a pace
which is exhilarating. and this desire IS
easy 10 understand. far too many Of
them are led to exceed the speed limit
and indulge in mad racing which invite
almost certain disaster.

As to Brilliant Theories.

Despite the mystery and darkness
which envelops this last case of as
sault and murder in Maine, the theo-
ries of the officials as to the perpetra-
tors of the crime are almost laugh
able in their absurdity, or would be II
the subject of them were not so serl-
Gus. At the first, one Of these bril-
liant detectives announced the theory
that Matte Hackett had been murder
ed by her lover. or by native OF
kent's HILL or by some one who went
out to walk with her. Later this
Same brilliant official gave it as his
opinion that the crime was committed
lny a woman because the knot found IN
the cord around the dead girls neck
was the sort of knot which woman
invariably ties" Indeed this is laugh
able. Three tramps were in or at tne
Hackett house on Thursday night
waiting for Matte Hackett to get theih
simmer. Her father with another fel-
low. who had been released from Au-
burn iaiI were at the barn doing the
nightly chores. Yet later. When the
screams were heard Mr.. Hackett went
n the house to find the supper table
spread but the food untouched. While
his daughter lay i'm the roadside gutter
some distance from the house, with
cord about her throat and a cash in
her head. in the last gasps of uncon-
scious life while the three tramps were
nowhere to be seen. And yet in the
face of these facts this remarkable de-
tective eliminates the tramps from the
case and sets up the theory of Matte
Hackett's murder by her lover. by
native of kent's Hill and not by
tramps. but by "a woman" Indeed,
this is brilliant. Commercial
The above ridicule of the Kennebec
officers who have worked SO tirelessly
and intelligently upon this mysterious
case is now coming back most emphat-
ically upon the one who wrote it. The
early theories OF the officer may have
appeared laughabl to the Commercial,
but i'm view of later developments the
comments of the Commercial upon
those theories seem much more laugh
able still. In it's eaSerness to lay the
awful crime to tramps. the Commercial
did not wait to learn the real facts
which were that no tramp called for
food, except the one who was at the
barn with MI Iackett when the crime
was committed, and that the others
suspected were quickly shown to have
been many miles away. The theory of
capable officer who is promptly upon
the scene of the crime is apt to prove
much more brilliant than the theories
of a man who is INDUCING i'll vague
Conjectures a hundred miles away.

Eilipinos for the Canal?

The Pittsburg Dispatch suggests that

care Of its employees and is ready to
dig it might solve the question of labor
by importing sufficient number of
F'ilipinos to do the work. The Dis
patch. it may be remarked incidentally,
is more consistent in its photography
than most of us and spells it Phillip
pino." 1t gives good reasons why the
task could be entrusted to them if they
can be prevailed upon to work.
1t has been announced that Japan
will oppose the employment of natives
customcd to a climate where the tenn
perature taxes the resources of the
thermometer. while il is obvious that
China cannot be depended upon at this
time to provide the required labor Ma
tives of the surrounding country are
said to be unfit for such work if they
happened to be so inclined. while Cuba
is 50 taken up with it's own affairs that
it cannot lend assistance.
ON the other hand. it is argued by
the Dispatch that the Filipino is ac-
Customed to high temperatures. In
some parts of the islands he is fairly
well disposed toward labor. particular
~ when it gives him sufficient return
to make his efforts noticeable in his
purse. He has accomplished some
thing in his own country, and may be
induced to do the same on the isthmus
The commission expects to give it's
workmcn something better than they
can find in any other part OF the world
for similar work. and if the Filipino
can be induced to leave home there Is
little danger that he would long for the
islands. The labOring classes of the
Philippines are poorly paid and the
wages to be allowed by the commission
would not only be an attractive fea-
turc to the young men who want to
work, but the education an army of
them would receive by contact with the
representatives of other nations in the
canal zone would mean much for the
communities to which they would re-
turn.
