never to be sacrificed TO false hIsgnan-
unity or mistaken policy. The cause Of
Justice, OF good government and of public
morals will be served by the cpnstctlon Of the
prisoners and their incarceration in the State
prison for the full term uf their sentence.

censures Of the Republican press and the
wild fury Of John Sherman, who, if full JUS
tice could be done, would serve his term with

The Times yesterday morning, with its
usual cheek, claimed that it first proposed
the introe of the Moffeto register into
this State. The efmes came out in favor Of
the Moffett register tax a day or two after
the DEMOCRAT had written it up at length.
However. the Times is welcome to claim the
glory of suggesting it, as we have abandoned
the thing. We only refer to the matter to point
out the assurance of the Times, which we
should not be astoRshed to find some morn
ing claiming that it first suggested the plan
of salvation.
