The Washington correspondent of tile

compliment to New Jerseys honored
U. ). Senator:
Both parties are vigilant and deter
mined. New Jersey is Democratic.
Her history is identified with the tri.
ulnphs Of the Democracy, and yet Re-
publicans have struggled with endless
energy to strip her of her legitimate
representation, in State as well as Con
gressicnal legislation. With a clean
and unqualified Democratic majority
in the State, she is yet-by political

The experts for the prosecution in
the Malley trial testified t,'at Jennie
Craa.er was not drowred, but died
from the effects of poison. The experts
for the defence declare that She was
not poisoned, but drOwued. The lead

a Yale professor. The chief expert
called in behalf of the pisoners is con-
nected with Harvard University, aud
is medical examiner of Suffolk county,
a position which requires him to exem-
inc all cases of death by violence in
Boston. This irIeconcila5le couflict

For over a week our wholesale
houses have been seriously f%nccnve-

the strike of the freight handlers. AT
the present high price of eatables they
cannot live on the wages paid and they
demand an adyance which is refused.
Italians have taken their places, but
they are Ignorant and incompetent and
goods blockade every depo: and freight

but orderly and by their law abiding
spirit have Won the sympathy OF the
community. 1t is thought that the

SOMEBODY UNDER the non-de-plume
of "Irish Republican" has written us
a letter criticising the manner in which
DR.. Wales was nominated for Mayor.
There are two things which preclude a
publication in the REPUBLICAN. One
is, that the real name of the writer is
not given, and the other is that the ar
ticle is written on both sides of the
paper. If an additional reason is want
ing it is found in the threat that the
article will be published in the Morn

lish it. Under the circumstances the
papers named will have to publish it,
we politely decline.
