Alderman Armitage Mathews is youth- ful, @ tawyer, loquacious and the political right hand In the district of the poetio Abe Gruber. It would not be necessary to Indicate these facts but for the zeni which both have displayed in the effort to necure the establishment in the district ofa new municipal court. That moans another Justice likely to crystallize in the person of the Alderman, or former Assemblyman Bennett, @ set of clerks, and court attendants, who, with the others, will comprise additional patronage in a district already declared to bs strongly Republican. Recently there was introduced in the Legislature @ Dil authorising the es- tablishment of a new Municipal Court in the Gruber district. It was repre- fronted that the west side of town where it was proposed to erect the new courthouse was sadly in need of it, The present courts were overrun WIth business, {t was declared, and tn extenuation tx was pointed out that one Justice In the Municipal Court in the djatrist actually had to go without his lunch in order to dispose of the pressure of business. Simuitancously with the presentation of the court-house measure there came before the Legislature another bill seek- ing an amendment to the charter ailow- ing any Alderman of the city to accept nomination or appoinment to office during his term as Alderman, The two biile filted in nicely, To-day the Mayor gave a bearing on the proposed new court bill, Of course Aiderman Mathews was on hand to advocate its acceptance by the city. The Mayor's suspicion, how- ever, had been aroused, and he wae very circumspect in handling the matter. In vain Alderman Mathews pointed out that the district had cast 20,000 voter at the last election, with a population of nearly 100,000, The Mayor was unmoved by that statistical quotation, Those against the bill Insist that existing justices can meet ali requidoments if they will only "work hhqed enovg. “The sclentifio solution of this whole matter,” sald the Mayor finally, “is in the redistricting of the city. I shall re- serve my opinion on this bill.” That was a body blow to the Gruber.
