The NeI Jersey Senatorship.


Tho knowing Democratic leaders In Now
Jersey are predicting that Senator Mcpherson
VIII IND the path TO reelection q thorny and
expensive one, in spite Of the fact that he is
counting on the moral support OF certain Re-
publican statesmen who servo the corpora
lions that arc behind him. Mr.. Mcpherson is
wise after his generation, and the papers
throughout the State which ho controls are
blossoming out all over with paragraphs
to the effect that his return to the
Senate is assured. This is neat little
game to demoralize the opposition and
frighten other candidates out of the fleldl
Some OF thcm were not born yesterday and id

kiah Smith, for example, who carries few
good Assembly votes with him to Trenton
Mr.. Smith meant business when he captured
Burlington. There is blood In his eye, ant
when he declares that he Will ''yote for NJ
monopolies," his threat Is significant. TIL,
friends of Mr. Smith assert that he owes moth
ing to tho party organization, while the organ
Zation Is deeply in debt to him. They assert,
further, that he has the nerve to defy tho eau
Gus, and, II so, there is n likelihood OF some
unpleasantness in Trenton this winter.

THE Congressional committee investi-
eating the alleged Improvement of the
Mississippi River heard some interesting
of long experience on, and intimate
knowledge OF, the river, testified that the
river had not been improved during the
last twenty years beyond the taking out of
snags and the putting up Of Government
lights. In this time many millions of dol
lars have been expended on scientific i'm
provements."
While these pilots admitted that it would
be good thing if the Mississippi could be
confined within prescribed limits, they did
not believe that it could be done. They
thought that the work the Government
was now putting up would be swept away
during the high waters of the coming season.
They explained that the channel just above
Helena had shifted so that boats now run
where land was three years ago, while the
old lchannel is three miles inland. The
pilots further agreed that the current of
the river, when directed against any of its
banks, Is absolutely resistless; and they
further stated their unanimous opinion that
the Mississippis mighty current would
sweep away any artificial means wherewith
il may bo sought to restrain it.
All of this information THE CRITIC gave
to the public last spring and summer.
These facts are so plain and palpable as to
be self.evident to any sensible person not
engaged in the scientific task of sinking the
peoples money in absurd jetties or floating
1T out to sea on worthless mattresses.

SOME OF THE leading Democratic pa
pers of the country, since the recent vic
tory of that party, have hugged to their
hosoms the delusion that the people have
implicit confidence in the "grand old
party" We do not believe that such an
Interpretation is borne out by the facts
upon which was conditioned the decision
which the recent elections recorded at the
ballot-box. The Democratic party, to get
the confidence Of the people sufficiently to
secure the Presidency in 1884, must begin
to pay attention to the public needs and to
principles of duty. This they cannot do
by following the policy heretofore pursued
under Sam Randall's manipulations of the
party in Congress. No penny-wise and
pound-foolish legislation is desired by the
people, nor will they tolerate any party
that indulges in such course. What the
people want is, first, honesty and
capacity in official positions; and,
secondly, the abolishment of the
Internal Revenue system and the
reduction Of taxes to such a point as to
decently run the Government, pay the
interest on the public debt, create sink
'Hs iuhu W heoL lne maturing lnueDteu-
ness of the Government and pay for such
public improvements as are necessary to
the dignity and growth of the country.
And, If we mistake not, the people of this
country desire to see our shipping interests
revived on the high seas. We believe that
the great mass of the people in the United
States demand Of Congress such assistance
as to place our shipping interests on par
with other countries, thus restoring to this
country the supremacy on the ocean and
in the ocean carrying trade which the war
and the substitution of iron and steel for
wood in shipbuilding lost us. Both parties
and statesmen of all grades will find out
one Of these days, if they do not act wisely
and speedily, that the people are very much
in earnest in this matter.

SPEAKING of gcrrymandering, we re-
mind our Democratic friend on ID street
that the Democratic. Legislature ofIndIana,
in the session of 1s7s-79, so fixed up the
Congressional districts of that State that
the Democrats were to have ten districts
sure, the Republicans only one, and tho
other two doubtful. In 1880 the Republi-
cans carried eight and the Democrats five
of these districts. This year the Demo.
Gratis reap some of the fruits of their gerry
wandering skill-they got nine and the
Republicans four, Still it is an unfair and
unjust business and should be discounte-
nanced by honest men of all parties every
where.

The Mormon candidate for Delegate
from Utah received 23,o39, and tho Gentle
candidate 4,S30 scattering 12. From this
we gather that the Mormon candidate is
elected. The Gontilcs, however, don't
seem to know when they've had enough,
and tried to keep the Mormon from receiv-
ing the certificate. The commission very
properly overruled the objections of the
kickers and issued him the certificate.
The TACT is that Utah is overwhelmingly
Mormon and they will continue to send
one of their own persuasion to Congress so
long as they are allowed representation, and
the only way to prevent it is to disfran-
chise them. This, We opine, the American
people arc not ready to do, however much
they may condemn and detest certain
Mormon ideas, habits, or practices.
