On UTTON TO DEMOCRA IT'S.

There has been circulated broadcast in
this county ticket headed "Independent
Ticket" on which these liberal-minded In
dependents have left on the names of only
four Democrats, the residue of nine being
made up of the regular Republican nomi-
nees. The names of the Democratic nomi-
ness for Comptroller of the Treasury, SEN
ator and all the County Commissioners are
omitted on this Independent movement and
their places filled up with the Republican
nominees. 1t is to be hoped that our Dem
ocratic voters will not be deluded by any
such snare. This independent movement
is Republican trap to delude and deceive
the unwary. The names on the legislative
ticket are so changed as to suit each particu-
lar district in the county. In whichever
district they think the names are most avail
able they alternate and change the ticket to
suit the public mind. The very fact of the
tickets so differing in respect to legislative
candidates shows how false this pretended
movement i

THE TWO PREMIERs OF ENGLAA


The war between the two Premiers of
Observation-Disclosures, for the landlords, and
Parnell, for the people-grows apace and is
being fought to the bitter end.
Gladstone alleges that he caused Parnell's
arrest because his rival advised tenant farm
ers not to pay rent, but that is not the real
cause, for Parnell has been doing this for a
year or more, but no notice was taken OF
him until he publicly charged Gladstone
with ruling by brute force, and if any proof
of that charge were needed Gladstone him
selfhas furnished itby this act. "The blood of
the martyrs is the seed of the church." No
good cause can be exterminated in any land
in which the English language is spoken by
brute force in t'is day of steam, electricity
and free, patriotic and intelligent press.
And all this trouble comes from the Bri eli
Government turing itself into an oppr =
sor OF the people and "a gatherer of rent of
the many tillers Of the soil for the | 3nefit of
the few idlers. in word, land monopoly
is the cause Of all of this trouble, all this
woe, all this c. lety and all of this denial
OF justice by the British Govern ment - its
own people, and the lesson is not being lost
upon mani nd. Gladstone, with the Bit
ish army and navy at his back, MAJ crush
the leaders of the irish people, but he can
not deter the principles they advocate, for
these principles are Just, have worldwide
application, and ere being preserved in the
hearts of the people of all nations. Minister
Gladstone may Win to-day, but the morrow
cometh when Minister Parnell will be at
the front and the policy he advocates will
be triumphant. And then history will be
obliged to relate how cruel, brutal and un-
just Minister Gladstone was toward his own
people, while his rival was laborng for the
honor, the power and the glory Of England,
for it is true that Parnel is the representa-
tive of policy that would do undying honor
to England-make her stronger and greater
than she ever was-whilst Gladstone's policy
is one of dshonor and of national emascu-
lation. 1t may be that Minister Parnell will
be more powerful in prison than Minister
Gladstone will be while he commands the
throne; but of this time alone can tell.

Our county ticket is composed of such
material as to command the consideration
and support of not only every Democratic
voter, but every man who feels an interest
in the pride and growth of the county.
They are all gentlemen Of known integrity
of character, of practical experience, of en-
larged and liberal views and thoroughly com
petent to discharge the duties Of the office
for which they have been nominated with a
degree of zeal and ability creditable alike to
themselves and the best interest of the peo-
pile. Let us give the ticket our hearty sup
port and thus show proper apprc citation of
Democratic merit.

The Democratic tax record is one which
the party can afford to inscribe on its ban
ners. The tax basis is lower than it was
when the Democrats came into power The
State tax rate, in spite Of that, has been re-
duced from 80 to 1874 cents on the 800.
The State debt has been reduced from 3d.
Gas, 796 in 1868 to $11, 277, 110 in 1880, diff
ference in favor Of the State of So ,372 ,685, or
II per cent. Besides, in addition to ordinary
exper ses, the State has paid s8,000000 for
the bounty legacy left by the Republican
regime, 100000 for the State Lunatic Asy-
lum, $780, for the House of Correction,
and $125,000 for the State Normal School.
This is pretty good showing, in the face
of the "extravagance and corruption" which
the o. L. ID. S make such hullaballoo about.
Taxes cut down iii cents on the 800; debt
cut down II per cent; extraordinary ex-
penses met to the amount of 65 per cent. of
the States whole Indebtedness. But Demo-
cratic economy and reform are facts, not
words.

Oscar l.. Baldwin, cashier of the Mechan-
les National Bank of Newark, N. j., has, by
a systematic course of embezzlement, ex-
tending over period of three years, utterly
ruined that institution. He confessed to
misapplying 100000, but it is thought it
may, on investigation reach $3,000,000, while
contingent failures and losses by embarass-
ment of other banks and business firms can
only be surmised. He claims TO have loaned
G. Nugent g. Co., morocco dealers, the sum
he claims to have distracted, but Nugent
& Co., say the firm has not borrowed over
100000 Baldwin, who is respectfully con-
nected by family ties, will be indicted for
forgery and perjury, and is now under
$4,000 bonds for his appearance at the
criminal bar. Nugent was also arrested as
accessory and gave bail in like sum. The
unexpected failure of this bank caused in
tense excitement in Newark as it was con-
sidered sound in every respect, as it was
chartered in 1881 and afterwards was organ
lied in 1866 as a national bank. Blame is
attached to the careessness of the directors,
and as they are responsible to the stockhold-
ers and depositors their property has already
been attached to satisfy, as far as it will go,
the demands for payment from the bank
made by the malieasance of its cashier.

rs JUSTICE TO BE DEF.EA TED?

The delays, postponements and evasions
which have characterized the legal pro-
ceedings in the star route cases, since their
inception last summer, leave little room to
hope for such genuine prosecution of the
thieves as the public had reason to expect
from the energetic and apparently sincere
course pursued by the investigators.
So far as Messrs. James and McVeigh are
concerned, the public is disposed to believe
that the attempt to expose the frauds and
punish the wrong doors was jealous and
bona tide They have in all their relations
to the case given evidence of their perfect
sincerity, and had it been within their power
to control the result no reasonable grounds
TO apprehend the failure of justice would
have existed. But, unhappily, these gentle
men, have no power to advance the matter
in the courts Of justice against the formida-
BILE influences which, it is only too plain, are
actively at work to defeat the purpose of the
real friends of reform.
The suspicion aroused by the singular
course of the presiding justice in discharg-
ing the grand jury before whom the cases
were to have been brought last summer, by
his sudden adjournment of the court several
days prior to the expiration of the period
usually allowed for the term, and by the
exaltation of the beneficiaries and abettors
of the ring has only been strengthened by
subsequent events. We were told at the
time of that adjournment that the delay
was necessary in order to allow the counsel
for the government to digest and arrange
the mass of evidence which they had col
lected, and the assurance was given that al
September term all the preliminaries would
have be so far. settled as to enable the
pros cution to proc d to trial In this
representation of the matter, it is to be
obsei we'd, the lawyers in the employ of the
Department of Justice concurr7d. 1t die
not so appear at first, but when public
clamor and the criticisms Of the press ex
torted the truth the approval by these gen
tlemen of the course taken was avowed
September came and passed and the prom
ises made were wholly unfulilled-tht
month of October has passed away, and t
all practical intents and purposes the situa

There have been motions and argument
concerning unimportant legal technicalities

IS it not about time to cali a halt
i. the lynching business ? Last week
the RECORD published the particu-
lars of the breaking open of the Gala
boose by mob and the emasculation
of n prisoner, who was charged with
a nameless offence. This week we
have to chronicle an attempt at hang
ing another tramp On general princi-
piles because he was loafer and a
nuisance. II is said that harmless
dogs learn TO kill sheep by getting a
taste of the blood. Whatever may be
said about the first affair this last at
tempt at iynching is an indication of
a growing spirit of lawlessness that
may lead to serious results if not
checked at once. 1t appears tina,
there was no charge against the last
victim for which he could even be
arrested. To lynch such man or
even to play at lynching under such
circumstances, merely to afford fun
for the boys, is too serious a matter
TO be tolerated in this community.
The laws are quite competent to take
care of all criminals in this county,
and the laws should be respected.

course pursued by the president
since, under peculiarly trying cir
cumstances he assumed his office, .
course which has fairly disarmed
criticism, is only what those iusi-
mate with Mr.. Arthur expected of
him. as he is finished scholar, q
most earnest Republican, (has been
the leader of the Republican party in

National man, and more reticent
than even Grant. These remarks arc
not in the nature of news, but a.

forecast of the policy OF the admin

that Frelinghuysen win b. Secretary

to what influence g sta rartism -

The ghastly, grinning Guiteau farce
is still drawing its slow length along
at Washington. The evidence for the
defence, which was mainly intended
by Scoyille to prove that Guiteau
was always considered crazy by those
who knew him intimately, has been
closed. Against this testimony Gui-
teau most vehemently protested, as
serting that he would rather be hung
than cleared ON such testimony and
reiteraiing on all occasions that he
was inspired by the Deity to Gre
moyc' Garfield. He admitted ON
cross examination, that he felt some
remorse since killing Garfield, and
there is no doubt whatever, but he
deliberately planned the murder and
fully understood the consequences of
the acl. although his 4 inard dipate 4 ], xani7 i;
would have made hero instead of q
malefactor of him. The public have
became utterly disgusted with his
brszen mouthings and brow beating
of the lawyers and court. and it is
hoped the case will be ended the
coming week. There can be only
one termination of the case. The
fou! wretch must hang as warning
to all other cranks.
