FLOWERS FOR LUDLow's GRAVE.
Wayren Democrat.-

missioner Of railroad taxation. in place
Of Editor Yard, Of the Monmouth
Democrat, may be and doubtless is q
very good appointment as far as the
now appointee is concerned, but as a
visitation Of Bourbon revenge (and
Ithat 10 all it is) on Mr.. Yard, for the
manly position taken by him last fall
against the notorious Geo. W. Pat
terson, candidate for State Senator, Of
Monmouth county, it shows CON
temptible illness on the part Of the
Governor, that will never make him a
United States Senator, and reflects
Mr. Yard in much the clearer light
of the two. s a0 8&s s0 is

The removal Of Major Yard, of the
Monmouth Democrat, from the office
Of Commissioner Of railroad taxation
is ascribed to his manly opposition to
the election Of the notorious George
W. Patterson for Senator. Major Yard
has been an efficient officer, and the
sole cause for the change is the one
mentioned. The honest people Of

Yards removal is ascribed to his
opposition to George w. Patterson
for Senator. It certainly cannot be
charged that he was inefficient; the
public know better than that. The
real friends Of Gov. Ludlow cannot
bat regret that he has seen ft to take
sides in this matter, which chiefly
and almost entirely concerned the pee
pie of Monmouth. The Governor
has made many foolish blunders since
his elevation to the Gubernatorial
chair, but none more foolish than
this. He is a blind partisan-as blind
as bat-and is making more polit-
ical enemies than any Of his pred
ecessors. i.
SaSseC heg1ster.---
James s. Yard Of the Monmouth
Democrat has been removed from the
Office Of Commissioner Of railroad tax
alton, the only reason given being
that he opposed the election Of George
W. Patterson, for Senator. Major
Yard was an efficient officer, and has
the esteem Of all his acquaintance
who admire cleanness and real worth.
The notorious Patterson was twice
nominated for Senator from Mon
mouth, but Major Yard refused each
time to put his name among the list
Of candidates at the head Of the col
umns Of his paper, and gave good rea-
sons therefor, reasons that good voters
Endorsed, and now his official head is
cut of. We think the Major will
survive, though retired to private life,
and will never be whipped into the
traces by men that put such unclean
birds as Patterson in the Geld.
