"yOX POPULI."

In Tuesdy's Express appears an editorial
evidently prepared in the sanctum of ''his
honor" the mayor, which We only propose TO
notice to the extent of one or two assertions
contained in it, to-wit:
'Newcomb didn't want a man who would
seek the Office OF mayor; Siemering kicked be-
cause French had not announced himself
But these two gentlemen are seldom in accord
except IN their desire to get some one out of
office"
MIR. Newcomh commended that it was diff
cult to secure proper man as candidate for
mayor unless some demonstration on the part
Of the public was made to call him out: tina,
men who were not professional politicians or
offce-seekers were too difident and modest to
venture out as candidates on their own motion;
and he was opposed to making the mayors
Office an occupation, instead of an Office of
honor and trust.
"The only direct charge these gentlemen
made against the French administration was
in connection with the existence of gambling
hells, which are no worse now than they have
been in this city for fifty years, or when both
the gentlemen named worked so earnestly TO
elect French second time to the Office of
mayor"
This assertion is, of course, false; it does
not even require proof to show its falsity;
every man in town knows it to be so.
at was apparent to all that the Messrs.
Newcomb aud Siemering, seeing by their
lamentable failure to control the republicans
at the polls two years ago il would be useless
to try that plan again, were trying to carry out
their schemes by popular movement" cali
meeting, have committee appointed in
! their interest, and present their ticket as n
''citizenS' ticket" But their scheme pot
! bad start. Even their chairman was not in
full accord with them, and gave due notice
that they must not expect him to appoint the
committee entirely among the opponents of
Mr.. French"
The election two years ago resulted in the
defeat of the republican candidate, but tina,
defeat left no dishonor behind it. The repub-
lican candidate stood upon his party endorse
ment and refused to become tool of the gam
bling fraternity.
The result of the meeting we acknowledge
as disappointment, in the selection of MIR
French the object for which it was called
was thwarted. The following is the call as
printed in the LIGHT:
AT the request Of number of citizens We
give notice that public meeting will be held
on Saturday evening next, in Scholz's hall fun
stairs) at o'clock to consider the question of
the approaching city election. All citizens in
favor OF change are invited to attend.

.JEANETTE'S HAIR.

Oh, loosen the curls that you wear Jeanette,
Let me tangle my hand in your hair, my pet,
For the world to me had no daintier sight
Than your brown hair yelling your shoulders
white.
II was brown with golden gloss. Jeanette,
1t was finer than the silk of the floss, my pet,
Twas a beautiful mist falling down TO your
wrist,
Twas thing to be braided and Jeweled and
kissed
Twas the loveliest hair in the world, my pet.
Ny arm was the arm of a clown, Jeanette.
II was slnewy, bristled and brown, my pet,
But warmly and softly 1t loved to caress
Your round white neck and your wealth OF
tress,
Your beautiful plenty OF hair, my pet.
Your eyes had swimming glory. Jeanette.
Revealing the old, dear story my pet;
They were gray with the chastened tinge OF the
sky
When the trout leaps quickest 10 snap the fly,
And they matched with your golden hair, my
pet.
Your lips-but have no words, Jeanette,
They were fresh as the twitter OF birds, my pet,
When the spring Is young, and the roses are wet
With the dew-drops in each red bosom set.
And they suited your gold-brown hair, my pet
Oh, you tangled my life in your hair, jeanette,
Twas a silken and golden sn are. my pet,
But so gentle the bondage my soul did implore
The right to continue your slave evermore,
With my fingers enmeshed in your hair,my pet.
Tbns aver dream what YOU were, Jeanette,
With your lips and your eyes and your hair,
mypet,
In the darkness OF desolatc years moan,
And my tears fall bitterly over the stone
That covers your golden hair, my pet.

arriving at the Falls at 1885. Returning the
train will leave Niagara at P. NJ, and make
the same fast time as in going, giving over
eight hours at the Falls which is ample time
to visit all points ofinterest, and to witness the
grand electric light illumination of the Falls
in the evening, pronounced by all who have
seen it as one of the finest spectacles ever wit
messed, and alone worth the expense of the
trip. By taking along your lunch basket
there will be no expense for hotel bills. Less
than half rates have been secured for all points
of interest at the Falls, including the electric
light. No postponment will be made on ac-
count of the weather, as stormy day here
would be no indication of bad weather at the
Falls, the distance being so great. The trip,
aside from the attractions at the Falls is de-
lightful one and well worth the outlay, as the
train runs the entire distance through beauti-
full country along the shores of Lake Erie and
the Niagara river, passing through Erie and
Buffalo and the many towns between. Ladies
can accompany the excursion safely without
an escort, as hundreds have done so on pre-
vious occasions, the arrangements at the Falls
being such as to protect them from all annoy
ances and opportunities. The managers will
accompany the excursion in person and will
give every possible attention to their patrons
If you wish to enjoy grand trip for little
money, make arrangements to visit Niagara

Notes on Current Events.

The island of Java, the scene of the
late disaster, is ruled by Holland. A
representative of the Netherland Trad
ing Company in New York, remarked
dav or two ago. "We have large
branch at Batavia They sent US a
dispatch yesterday. 1t left Batavia at
6 o'clock P. NJ. 1t said nothing about
the earthquakes or eruptions, so can
not think that any business interests
have suffered. Coffee and sugar are
the principal exports Coffee is the
only crop which could be affected at
this time of the year, unless some OF
the sugar storehouses on the Batavian
fats were destroyed by the tidal wave.
| don't the think the coffee has suffered
because it would be to their interest to
let us know, as it would send up the
price of coffee. Earthquakes there are
so common that an ordinary quake oc-
casions no more uneasiness than
shower here.
The province of Bantam, which
seems to have suffered most, is unim-
portant, as there are no harbors on it's
coast, and consequently no large COM
mercial towns. AMER is simply
place where ships receive orders by
telegraph where they are to unload.
Probably the other towns mentioned
are equally unimportant The sinking
of the light houses in the Sunda Straits
and subsistence of Kramatan will of
course endanger navigation, as the
southwestern monsoon is now blowing,
and all vessels bound for China take
the Straits. But the Dutch are alive
to the interests of commerce, and will
divise means to warn vessels"
The doctrine of the divine right
and appointment of kings will not die
with the Comte de Cambord. 1t has
an adherent in the United States, and
his name is Sitting Bull. This very
troublesome ex-potentate announced
Yesterday at council with Senatorial
committee that he had been created
chief of the Indians present by the
Great Spirit But he was not treated
as men of similar pretensions are
abroad; for, having also spoken doubt
ingly of the sobriety of the committee,
he was compelled to choose between
apologiziDg and going to the guard
house. Sitting Bull is out of place
here; be ought to be in Europe. among
doctrinaires of his kind, and the gov
ernment would save money by sending
him there.
w hen Congress recently passed
law prohibiting the importation of
adulterated teas the public supposed
that thereafter they would know what
they were buying when they bought
tea. But it appears that the time for
rejoicing has not yet arrived. Accord
ing to a large dealer in New York,
there is still on hand an immense
quantity of adulterated and bogus tea,
which has been accumulating ever since
England refused to receive any more
of it.
