Mr. C. F. Van Inw^en, on behalf of himself and Mr. Eli Van Inwegen, com plained that the action of the Board at their last meeting, in requiring flagstone sidewalks in front of their sidewalks on Jersey avenue, had not been well consid ered and was unnecessary, as sufficient sidewalks already existed and he requested that a committee be appointed to investi gate the matter. Trustee Boyd moved that a special committee he appointed to make such examination, and President Shimer appointed Messrs. Boyd, Lyons and Corwin as such committee, Mr. James Robertson stated that he was prepared to lay the walk along the Chandler property on Jersey avenue, but a s k ^ for instructions as to grade, claiming that the grade of part o? the walk already laid was too low.

On request of Trustee Lyons the resolu tion passed on June 4th, ordering a cross walk across King street on Third street and that that street be put in passable con dition, was read. On motion of Trustee Lyons the President was authorized and instructed to have said walk laid and reso lution complied with.

On motion of Trustee Boyd he was instructed to have same constructed. Trustee Boyd, on behalf of Sussex street hill committee, reported that labor to an amount exceeding $150 had been performed on the Sussex street wall con tract and on his motion a draft for that amount on behalf of Louis Noey was ordered on account.

A passenger boarded a train of the St. Paul, Minneapolis and Manitoba railway company, and before he learned that he could get no seat the train was going at a high rate of speed. On his fare being demanded the passenger refused to pay it unless a seat was provided for him, offer ing, however, to pay if a seat was pro vided. The Supreme Court of Minnesota held (Hardenburg versus the St. Paul, Minneapolis and Manitoba Railway Com pany) that the passenger had a right to refuse to pay the fare, and that he did not thereby become a trespasser. The court said that a passenger has a right to a seat, and that a railroad having the right to eject from its train one not a trespasser must do so at a regular station. “ H E IS NO SEOtrCH.” The Mio York Sun, A ll the Republicans in this tow n should go and hear Col.

Some time ago, in the course of an arti cle devoted to the consideration of some Oazette logic, we incidentally expressed a desire to see some of the figures upon wMch their correspondent styling him. self Free Lance based his general proposi tion as to the lowuess of wages in the protected occupations compared with the unprotected Not that we questioned this fact, but we simply had a desire to see the figures. Free Lance seems to have taken this to heart and with commendable industry, he has compiled a table of figures setting down protected occupations in one column and the unprotected in another. This table of figures was published in the Gazette last night without comment, from which we infer that Free Lance prefers to let the figures tell their own story. To show t\ie^Gazette correspondent how little importance we attach tohis table of figures as a free trade document and to prove to him that we are not in the least afraid o f having our readers see it we re- iduce it. erage Days Wages Protected.

They either mean this or they mean nothing. Now it is apparent at a glsmce that all the occupations enumerated in the right hand column are those that presuppose a long apprenticeship and a great degree of mechanical skill. For these reasons and for these alone blacksmiths, carpenters and others command higb wages ; on the other hand the occupations enumerated in the left hand column are with two or three exceptions those which require little or no manual efficiency and are compara tively easy to learn. For this reason the wages are low and it will be observed that the wages of those engaged in making glass plate are on a parallel with the wages of blacksmiths and masons for the simple reason that they require about the same degree of skill. For “protected” substitute unskilled and for “ unprotected” substitute skilled at the head o f these respective columns of figures and they tell their story.

Voters to Decide T o - n ight on a Site for the Nevr School H ouse. A meeting o f the voters of this Union Free school district will be held to-night at the Church street school house to take action on certain proposals to he sub mitted thereto by the Board of Education. The sole business to be considered at the meeting is that of selecting a proper site for a new school house on the south side of the Erie track, and of voting an appro priation for the erection of a school build ing thereon. The Board of Education will propose to the taxpayers three alternative plans. First it will propose the purchase of Kirks Grove for $5,000 and an appropria tion of $7,000 for school building to be erected thereon. And in the event of the fEulure of the District to adopt this plan they will then propose the purchase o f the German Lutheran church property on the corner o f Thompson and Water streets, and for the purpose of converting the church building into a school building and supplying it with seats an appropria tion of $3,500 will be proposed. Failing in this the purchase of the L any O’Connell property on the corner of Water andLum- her streets will be proposed and an appro priation of $7,200 for the removal of the old building and the erection of a new one recommended. These various propositions have been advertised by the Board of Education for the length o f time required by the law, and voters must decide at to-night’s meet ing which one of the sites proposed they likellbest. It is of great importance that there should be a full attendance of tax-payers and voters at to-night’s meeting. -$ 1 .7 5 , $2.00, $2.50, $8.00 are my prices of ladies’ patent leather tip button shoes, of good wearing kid, Kadel’s 100 Pike street.

NEWS, Item s of In t e r e s t From tlie G reat Iro n T h o roughfares. While an Brie train was passing Clinton, N. J., a few nights ago a large mastiff, owned by a well known resident of the place, attempted to challenge the right of way with the engine by running in front of it, and the result was that he went sky ward as if filled with gas, and after the train passed a passenger standing on the rear platform saw his lifeless remains fall into an adjoining field. The dog’s name happened to be Danger, and for this reason the engineer who struck him can not be found. It is noised along the line that the man who did the killing is afraid to own up for fear the wily Superintend ent will “ lay him off” as incompetent to run under the new block signal, because he didn’t shut off, reverse and call for brakes when he saw “Danger.” E. O. Harding is a well known passen ger conductor on the Brie, and is famil iarly called “Od.” He is one of the old school, and has been with the road through at least a dozen administrations. He re ceived the distinction a number of years ago of being the best man who ever handled the grand train on the Eastern division, which train has to work and play alike between the schedule time of all other trains without detaining them, and still accomplish its work'on the road. “Od’ was bonded a long time ago, and has run nearly all the first class trains on the di vision. His great forte is the Sunday spe cial west when it carries ten co ches. The sharpers who ride in the rear coaches be cause “ he can’t catch our tickets before we get to Rutherford ” (eight miles from Jersey City) get awfully left, as he gets his train worked before crossing Berry’s Creek draw. “Od’s ” great weakness is a love o f justice, and there isn’t a man who ever cut one sixteenth of a day’s time out of his month’s wages, from the chief clerk down, who may ever ask or expect hi.-^ forgiveness.—i'T.

SOME POINTS FO R T H E “ GAZETTE.’ H o w tb a t Jo u r n a l Can P u r g e Itse lf of the Odium of Free Trade. Tbe Gazette smarts under the epithet of Free Trader which we apply to it anti protests in a feeble sort ol a way against the accusation. But if our neighbor really desires to purge itself of the odium of being a free trade journal, the way is Cease supporting free trade candidates and advocating free trade measures such as the Mills bill. In this way and not by futile protest can the Gazette persuade the reading public that it has experienced a change of heart and is not hostile to pro tection. Cease asserting that protective legislation is unconstitutional as you have repeatedly done,and we will acknowledge that you are making a commendable ef fort to amend your ways. But so long as you continue to support Grover Cleve land, defend the Mills bill and worst of all deny the right of this government to foster and encourage its industries by maintaining protective duties, we shall be compelled in the interest of truth to call the Gazette a free trade journal. T H E BANNER RAISING TO-NIGHT. A Harrison and Morton banner will be raised by the Republicans of Matamoras to-night in front of Balche’s store. The event will be one of great interest and the Republicans of Deerpark are earnestly invited to be present and participate in the proceedings. Speeches will be deliv ered by L. E, Carr and H, B, Fullerton both of this village. The opportunity of listening to so effective and eloquent an orator as Mr. Carr will doubtless attract many hearers, Democrats as well as Re publicans. Mr. Fullerton, though a young man, has achieved laurels in recent poli tical campaigning, and is well worth lis tening to. The ma'jy remarkable cures Hood’s Sarsaparilla accomplishes are sufficient proof that it does possess peculiar curative powers. ■The miners throughout the entire coal regions of Pennsylvania all use Tulip soap—unmistakable proof that it is good ANOTHER GRAND RALLY AT T H E R I N K ON WEDNESDAY EVENING NEXT.
