Reasons Tor the Defeat.

New York, Times Albany: The
result OF the election in the Eighteenth
Senatorial District is both a surprise and
an enigma to politicians here. All sorts
Of explanations are put forth to account
for it, and they differ as widely as the
partisan, personal, and factional predilec-
lions and prejudiees Of those who make
them. One set attributes it wholly or
mainly 10 the contest between the stall
wart and anti-stslwsrt republicans of the
district; Others sly that q reported dis
graceful alliance between the governor
and Tammsny 3 III was the cause Of it
all.
- Times correspondent who inter-
viewed the electors in the district, comes
to the conclusion that the defeat is at
tributable to two causes: First, the re-
publican candidate, Stanfo is q
pronounced, outspoken and somewhat
offensive stalwart of the Conkling type,
while large maj ri'y of The voters of
his party are half-breeds, or. SIS they
style bemselves up there, Garfield re-
publicNns. Second, the belief which is
reported to BIZ almost universal in the
district that the orgsniz4ti o. the lsgis
lature Wa tbs fruit Of corrupt bargain
between Governor Cornell and John
Kelly, in which Jim Belden sui
other politicians of unsavory odor fig
ureG. This so disgu.t~d reputable repub-
licsns of tn. district that they voted for
the democratic candidate. Baucus, as the
most Effective way Of putting the stRBp
of their disapprovAl upon the deal. Still
another reason assigned for republican
lack Of interest Il ken il the e.ection,
which caused many republicans to stay
away from the polls, is Stsn1erd's past
political record, in which be figures on
several occasions Sc bolter FROM the
regular nomira ions OF his party, and or
one occasion as the successful leader Of 8
revolt. which sert him to the senate as
an independent candidate This is
given es the cause Of more or less dIsaf-
fiction among strong disciplinarians Of
the party.

Blaen Avon mine and boarded at
Midlothian. He had been drinking
at Frostburg the previous evening,
and left after buying flash of
whiskey. The body was found about
fifty yards from where Hodgett was
found, and like him, there was only
single wound OIL the head, which
might have been the result of a fall
from the bank above, but may also
have been made by blow with a
blunt instrument. AS in Hodgett's
case. the dead mans money was still
in his pockets. and there was also a
broken whiskey flask. The cornor's
inquest had not rendered verdict,
but there is little doubt that it will

the most simple nature, as follows: plate of
nickle composition metal, especially adapted
to the purpose, has two plates, of SOLID GOLD
soldered one on each side. The three are then
passed between polished steel rollers, and the
result is a strip of heavey plated composition,
rom which the cases. backs, centres beZels
&C., are cut and shaped by suitable dies and

Functions Of the Newspapers.

The newspaper is, first of all, q
business enterprise. Publishers make
newspapers to sell. just as matters
make hats or shoemakers make shoes.
The newspaper is merchandise made
to suit the market. Those buy il
who wish it. and the buyers take
their choice of the wares offered.
Without this commercial value a
publication could not he sustained,
ard it would he as unWise as unjust
not to take this fact into account.
Newspaper makers, like other manu-.
features. must consult popular tastes
and market demand.
But the newspaper is also public
agent. 1t offers to the public. for pay
certain services. such as the advertise
ment of commodities. the announce.
ment of public meetings, courts,
elections and sales. On this work, as
an advertising medium and public
herald, it depends for much of its
support.
TIL ese are the private and personal
aspects Of the newspaper, and so far
as these are concerned it is the pri-
vate property and business affair
of its publisher. But to count the
newspaper as merely business en-
terprise, and to reckon with it only
as such, would insult the public in
telligence as much as it would trifle
with the public interests and rights.
Itassumes public functions and res
possibilities which none but a public
teacher can hold. We cannot absolve
men from the duties attached to the
positions which they voluntarily oc-
cupy. But the press ia the professed.
if not paid, advocate of whatever set
of opinions it publicly accepts. 1t
offers its columns as sources of public
information. 1t speaks in print. and

use under the most solemn circum.
stances. 1t il in this public character

The past year has been terrible
one on the ocean, and the record of
wrecks makes longer list than in
any previous twelve months. No
less than 1893 steamship disasters
were reported, and just one-sixth of
them occurred in the single month
OF October, which stands without a
precedent in the history of the mer-
chant marine. Full half of the dis
asters resulted from stranding, and
the worst feature of it is that not a
few of them appear due to sheer reck-
lessness in skirting along unknown
shores without making regular
soundings. There was narrow es-
cape from a frightful disaster on
Long Island sound to head the record
for 1882. The steamer Newport, of
the Fall-River line, started for New
York Sunday night in a terrible
storm. and about 2 o'clock in the
morning ran into schooner off
Point Judith. causing a tremendous
crash. The $50 passengers were
thrown into a state of the widest
confusion, and it was a long time be.
fore they could believe that the
steamer had escaped without serious
harm.

Ingredients OF Lager Beer.

The Baltimore american of recent
date had the following editorial par
agraph:
The Commissioner of Internal
Revenue has been making some in
designations into the manufacture of
beer which rather shake the public
faith in this pure product of malt
and nOps-'the healthiest beverage
in the world 1t was known before
that glucose and dextrine were used
also in this manufacture, but the ex-
tent to which materials other than
malt and hops are employed has not
been generally understood. A de-
mand for fuller details OF the manu-
facture shows that some brewers use
sugar, corn meal and rice in consid-
cradle quantities. In one brewery
5000 bushels of corn. meal were used
to IL 900 bushels of malt. This beer
must contain large percentage of
iusel OIL. In another case 500 pounds
of coraline were used to every So
bushels of malt. Coraline is an aqua
tic plant. like Iceland or Carageen
moss. In another brewery the for
mula was two pounds. of corn-m
and half a pound of glucose to every
bushel of malt. Another used $50
pounds of glucose to 165 bushels of
malt. This sort of beer is as much
fermented corn-starch as anything
else"
An inference is that these ingre.
tents. being so largely used in lager
beer, make it really unhealthy, tend
ing to produce kidney diseases, now
known to be so prevalent and fatal.
