cTa HE men who are forcing through the Legislature outrageous
corporation bills and strangling popular bills could not ac-
complish their purposes without control of the two houses
by majorhies which are largely made up of legislators who expect
denomination and reelection next fall. The member of the Legisla
ture who cannot foresee the effect on the public mind of his vote
on the pending corporation bills is as blind rs Il mole. And he has
Il pitifully poor understanding if he doesn't realize this fact, that
the leaders whose orders he takes will not hesitate to sacrifice him
next September to get rid of him and his bad record. They will
put upon him all the discredit of the wicked legislation. If neces-
sary, they will be the first to stone him. The great uncertainty in
the elections this year will demand the utmost caution on the part of
Republican managers in making legislative nominations, and there
will be a thorough sitting out of the black sheep by the organization.
The black sheep will be subject to count when the Legislature
adiourns.

ONLY ONE-FOURTH RATE CHARGED.

cTra HE Trenton Times has been examining the watersnake amend
ment to the McCran antidiversion water bill in a compare
tive and economic way. The amendment provides that the
company shall pay 81, 900 a year for twenty years for 10000000 gal
Ions of water. The State law says that a municipality that diyerts
water in excess of it's present amount must pay to the State not less
than 81 and not more than $40 per each million gallons. If the
water company was charged the same as the municipality is charged
by the State it would pay $500 per year instead of $1,000. This
discrimination in favor of the corporation and against the munich
uaIity is characteristic Of recent State legislation. But the question
is not one of rates. but of State policy and the conservation of the
State waters for the people of New Jersey.

Governor Fort said in his address
Saturday night of the Legislature:
THE men who present laws in the in
terests of the people find it almost II

out of the committees. Bills that the

named by the presiding officer, who
also selects the chairmen. The CHAIR
men control the committees. Presl-
lent Frelinghuysen is responsible for
the Senate committees and Speaker
Ward for the House committees. blils
are never held UP or reported against
the will of the president or speaker.
Governor Forts singing criticism is,
therefore, directed at the presiding
officers. The evil is at its worst in the
Senate. and. therefore, the greater dis
credit belongs to the Senator from
Somerset.

OFFIclAu ANNOUNCEMENT IS
EXPECTED TO BE MADE BY
THE COMPANY DURING THE
PRESENT WEEK..
THERE WILL LIKELY BE A SHIP
EACH DAY IN AND OUT OF
THIS PoRT-eooD SERVICE IS
PROMISED.

1t has developed since the publ
cation of the article in The News
yesterday concerning the return of
the Clyde steamers to Brunswick,
that it is really the Clyde line and
not the Mallory line which is soon
to put on freight and passenger ships
to this port, and though the company
has not yet issued any official an
nouncement as to the date of the in
auguration of the service, it is un-
derstcod, from an authentic source,
that the service will be started with
in the next month.
The fact that the Mallory and
Clyde lines are under practically the
same management, is probably re-
sponsible for the first report that the
Mallory line was to return to this
port. 1t was known that arrange
ments had been perfected for the re-
turn Ct one of the lines and rumor
had it that is was the Mallory.
AS published in these columns yes
terday morning, Brunswick is to be
given an excellent freight and passen
ger service. There will be three
ships week each, putting steamer
in this port every day. They will be
among the best ships in the Clyde
fleet and will carry both freight and
passengers.
1t is understood that all arrange
ments have been completed for the
service and some definite announce
ments from the headquarters in New
York is expected during the coming
week.
The people of Brunswick will well
come the return of the Clyde line, es-
pecially as it is to maintain a regu-
lar schedule and give the people of
the city a passenger service. When
the line previously used this, port
ships came in here at irregular times
and there was no passenger service
at all.
1t is safe to predict that at least
by the first of September it will not
be necessary for the people of Bruins
wick to go to Jacksonville or Savan-
nah when they desire to so to New
York ly water

OF DOLLARS Exa
PENDED BY THE COUNTY IN
THE TRIAL OF LYENS AND HIS
SON.
OF ALL THE WIT
NESSES HAS TO BE PAID,
WHILE THERE is MUCH 9TH.
Err HEAVY EXPENSE. .

There has been much discussion as
to what the Lyens case has cost
Wayne county during the past week
and many estimates have been made,
but there are no two people who will
place the sum anywhere around the
same amount
Since the jury was secured Thurs
has not been so heavy but during
the first three days of the week, it is
believed that the case cost just
about $1,000 per day, while during
the past three days it has cost, by
careful estimate made, at least $500
per day, which would run the total
up to approximately $4,000. This
does not include all of the expense
however, as the railroad fare of the
hundred witnesses is not figured in,
and there are various expenses
which have not yet been counted.
Each witness in the city, both for
the defense and the state, is paid
50 per day. This alone amounts to
about 5000 the twelve jurors receive
81 day and the hotel bill of each is
about an aqual amount, which makes
the jury cost $4S a day, there are
several bailiffs who receive 81 per
day and various, other expenses which
will easily run the total to $500
day. t,~t-3- -,s. y J
Every juror examined during the
early part of the week, whether quail
led to serve CT not, will receive So.
There were about 300 of them, maxi
ing another $500 So it can be seen
the trial is proving to be one of the
most expensive in the history Of this
section of the state.
1t is understood that the first trial
at JeSup cost the county almost $15,-
600 and if mistrial is not declared
tomorrow and the case continues it
is believed that before the end
Wayne county will have expended
between $500 and $4,000 in the
present trial

nett. of counsel for the state, report
ed to the court that elias Rawlings, the
juror who was not present on Mon
day, when a motion fer a continuance
was made by the defense because of
his abesnce, had arrived in court. He
said that the baby Of the witness was
seriously i'll and that Rawlings de-
sired to return to his home. The
jury retired and the witness was
placed on the stand. In the motion
for continuance, the defense stated
that Rawlins was an eye witness to
portion of the tragedy and that his
testimony was very important When
on the stand, however, it developed
tile"u ia " IIllSS was not even III J6SCp,y
on the night of the tragedy. 1t was
established as a fact, however, that
Rawlings had voluntarily gone to
Col. Bennett, of the defense, and told
him that he saw the shooting. He
went so far as to take the attorney
to the drug store in Jesup and snow
him where he was while the shooting
was going on, and to explain to nm
how i occurred. The attorneys for
defense believed the statement f
the witness, and. naturally, desired
to put him on the stand. Even al
ter he reached the city Friday he
made the same statement in the pres
ence of Col. Bennett, Judge Isaac
and Attorney John R. Cooper. When
closely questioned yesterday, Raw
Inns tried to escape by saying he did
not mean to say that he actually saw
the shooting, but that he had secur-
ed the facts stated from reading the
newspapers.
The juror was not excused, how
ever, Judge Conyers stating that un-
der the circumstances he doubted
seriously whether or not the mans
child was fn at all.
