A BAND OF THIEVES.

Several of our exchanges have had con-
siderable fun over the late robbery of the
PIONEER Office, all of which we are dis
posed to take cheerfully. When their turns
come, however, we shall be inclined to give
them huge slice of advice about leaving
money lie around loose, etc. But seriously,
friends, this thieving business has gone
about far enough in this community. Our
loss is not the only one which has been felt
in Bridgeton lately. 1t has only been a
few weeks since clothing store was robbed
of large amount of goods, while hen
roosts are being entered almost nightly
There is without doubt, band of thieves
in this city, composed in part of half grown
boys, led on by a few rascals of more ma
ture years. The worst feature of their
thieving operations is that they are thor
oughly familiar with the business places of
this city. You retire to your bed at night
to wake up in the morning and find your
self robbed The next day you meet the
thieves upon the street, and they pretend
to sympathize with you in the loss which
you have experienced. But you know
them not! You are robbed, perhaps, by
your, to all appearances, best friend. It is
time that our citizens awoke to the fact
that band of thieves, organized for plum
der, is among us. Our authorities should
exert more vigilance and ferret out these
cowardly robbers. To begin actively, Coun-
Gil should enlarge the police force immedi-
ately. We want more and better officers.
There ought to be at least three officers on
duty on Commerce street all night, as well
as during the day time. Night is when the
stealing is done, not in the broad glare of
day. "Men love darkness rather than light
because their deeds are evil" Therefore,
let the night patrol be doubled. We pay
taxes sufficient to have safety for our prop
erty while we sleep, and we ought to have it.

ALL HAIL INDIANAI

Republican victory crests the tidal wave
in Indiana. An unexpected and brilliant
triumph was achieved in indianapolis, yes
terday, in the face of apparently desperate
ODDS against the Republicans. The Dem
ocracy were in power. The Democratic
police pursued the same lawless and defiant
course there as in our April election. Dem
ocratic voters were colonized by wholesale,
and the usual naturalization game was
played to the utmost. The prospect was
disheartening, and few dared even to hope
for Republican gains. Yet, in spite of all
this, the result is clear, decisive Republi-
can majority. That tells the story of the
popular disgust with Democratic admins
tration in the West. 1t puts new courage
in the hearts of Republicans everywhere,
and is hailed as sure omen of the triumph
of Republicanism in Ohio next October.
Other prominent towns of Indiana have
also fallen into line with an alacrity most
cheering to the Republican heart. Rich
mond elects the entire Republican ticket,
"with immense gains" There was a "Wa-
terloo defeat for the regular Democratic
nominees" even in long time Democratic
Fort Wayne. At Muncie the Republicans
''swept everything before them" Greens
burg gives the Democracy an overwhelming
defeat. Logansport elects the first Repub-
lican Mayor since 1865, burying the regular
Democracy beneath large majority
Charlottesville goes strongly Republican
The Republicans gain handsomely in Madi
son and other Democratic strongholds
Terre Haute elects part of the Republican
city ticket, and majority Of Councilmen
Lafayette chooses Republican Council
Judge and Clerk, while the Mayor and two
other officers are Democratic.
In word, yesterday was ga glorious
day. in Indiana. This is the beginning o.
the end of Bourbon Democracy in the
West. Now for Ohio.-C Cincinnati Times

Belle Pancoast, one of Woodstown's priced
young ladies, met with a very painful acci-
dent about week ago. While she was en-
gagged in preparing asparagus soup, having
lifted the lid of the boiler with great effort,
air rushed into the vacuum, and the result
was an explosion, throwing the steam and
contents of the boiler with great force, and
Miss Bellies face being in proximity she re-
ceived very severe and painful steaming.
Fortunately her eyesight is not hurt, and
her physician says by carefully keeping her
face closely bandagcd for week or more,
the injured skin will be renewed and cause
not the least markings.

clouds rising in the political horizon which

democratic party.


Activity in news gathering, which is the
great and important feature of modern jour
nalsm, is rarely better illustrated than in
the HERALD thus morning This days issue
is q complete epitome of the worlds doings
up to the latest dates. Every event of interest
both at home and abroad not previously
known is herewith reported with scrupulous
accuracy, and it may truly be said the anti
podes meet in our columns to be carried
again from cline to cline until the ends of
the earth are reached again. From the Sa-
moan Islands, we have the remarkable story
of the establishment of Steinberger's
monarchy; Australia sends its batch of
news; Fiji its story of the relapse
of the natives into heathenism; the Sandwich
Islands their messages of kindness toward
America on the part of the people, and the
details of disaster to an American ship, in
which even the King assisted in quenching
the flames The cable brings US to-day the
European story of yesterday, and from every
part OF the world we have something new to
communicate. All this variety, which goes
to make up the interest of the HERALD Of to-
day, is but repetition of what the HERALD is
every day. Wherever any event of impor-
lance is happening our news gatherers may
be found, and they not only tell
the story. of the event itself, but
tell it in way to make it as Ineligible as if
it happened at our very doors. Ia proof Of
this we have only to refer to our cable dia-
grams of the shooting at Dollymount and
Wimbledon. Every shot fired by the Irish
and American teams in the International
match and the shots in the match Of the
Lords and Commons were SO reported that
glance showed the position of all upon the
targets. All this goes to show the progress
journalism is constantly making. It is mar
vel that so much news should be collected
from all parts of the world and printed in a
single day; but tile methods adopted for its
collection and publication are not less mar
vellous than the variety of the news itself.
The wonder does not cease even here.
Equally ingenious are the methods for the
distribution of the paper after it is printed. in
proof of which we have only to cite the work
done by our Niagara and Saratoga trains
Activity in gathering and printing the news,
and celebrity in the distribution of the news
paper are the keyno.es of modern journalism,
and in both these respects the HERALD holds
the first place among the journals of the
world.
