THE HIGH LICENSE QUESTION. AS high
license is now the order of the day in the
West, it is not to be wondered at that so
many Eastern papers, which are not tenn
perance papers by profession, favor the
scheme for the East. The New York
papers, generally favor it. The matter is
likely to come up again before the next
New Jersey Legislature, with what result
cannot be foretold. Unless there is con-
siderable change in the personeI Of the
House, however, no really high license
law will be passed. 1t is possible that the
liquor men who have influence at Tren-
ton will not seriously oppose high IL
cense law. They will feel it will give
them an advantage over small dealers.
Some of the temperance men of the State
do not favor high license, because op.
posed to license law in the abstract.
But these are short.sighted. If rum does
any damage to the State it is but common
honesty that taxation of the rum traffic
should pay that damage. A high license
gives the counties and cities some pecuni-
airy consideration for the pauperism and
crime engendered. 1t also weeds out the
illy-kept places-the low groggeries. 1t
is possible to have well-kept saloon, in
the ordinary sense of that word, or mis-
erably bad one, and high license will help
the good and kill off the bad ones.-lSoRa-

How no LEARN TO SWIM. Wade out
until the water is up to your breast then
turn your face towards the shore, and try
to swim towards it. You know that tho
water between you and the shore is not
over your depth, as You have just waded
through it this will give you confidence
to strike out. Confidence is great help
in learning. The chiefuse of various aids
in learning, the swimming plank, corks
or the presence of an older person, is to
give the learner confidence A plank Il
few feet long, on which the beginner can
place one or both hands, is sometimes OF
use. Corks or lifc-preseryers of any kind
that are fastened to the body, we do not
think much of. One needs but very little
adm fact no adm order to keep his
head above water, if he only has conf
dence. If an older brother or other friend
will hold his hand in such a manner that
you can rest your chin upon, you can soon
learn the proper movement of the arms
aud logs. Another method Is 10 have :
strap or band of webbing or other matciia
around the chest, just under the arms, A
few feet of stout cord has one end attach
ed to the band, and the other end tasten
cd to light stout pole. In this manner
O strong person can help the learner while
standing ON the land. The chief use Of
this contriyance is to give the beginner
confidence. Those who undertake to aid
q boy in learning to swim, should resist
all temptations to play tricks No mat
ter how slight ducking may be given, i,
startles the learner, and he is thereafter
fearful that it may be repeated. -dmericdi

WHAT 1T IS HERE FoR.-Tbe New
York Tribune says:
The Louisville Courier journal in
quires "What is the Democratic party
here for, except to reform the tariff"
Well, we can think of half n dezen
things that it is here for that have moth
ing whatever to do with the tariff.
1t is here to give the Republican party
something to defeat every four years.
1t is here to excite envy i'll the breast of
every American humorist as it dscourses
of Cen-tral-i-za-ti ton, as if it were really
mentioning something.
1t is here to give striking illustration
Of insane unfairness and cowardiee by
sneering "fraud' at an electoral commits
sion which it helped to form and by whose
decision it agreed to abide.
1t is here to show how long party that
is clean out of principles and whose record
cannot be safely handled without first be-
ing deodorized can keep above ground
simply by force of momentum.
II is here to determine whether, being
hopelessly divided against itself on the
free trade issue, it can be glued together
in 1884 by platform committee.
1t is here as the most notable political
shocking example known to our history.
II is here to sit up nights, supplicating
the smiling people to make change for
the sake of change.

SANITARY CONDITIONS OF CAPE MAY.

Tho sanitary condition of Cape May is
in the best possible shape to be secured
by science, skilled labor, and large out
lay of money. No city on the Atlantic
coast is better protected against malaria
aud the diseases resulting from it than
Capo May. Its water supply is drawn
from the purest and most wholesome
sources, and is inexhaustible in quantity
as 1t is exceptional in quality. Tho city
is free from all nuisances, and the author
tiles arc quick to discover aud abate any
danger to the health of its resident or
visiting population. Tho streets are mod
els of neatness and cleanliness, while the
clay of tho land, F" tending to good natural
drainage, has been largely utilized in the
very successful system of sewerage which
puries the town. The great hotels arc
especially constructed with reference to
this necessary sanitary precaution, and no
expense is spared to make the ventilation,
sewerage and water supply perfect.
improvements are being constantly
made in this direction, upon the principle
that "an ounce of prevention is worth n
pound of cure )" the latest work done be-
ing the entire renovation OF the Stockton
Hotel, by tho introduction Of over 5000
feet of new iron pipe devoted solely to the
drainage and ventilation of the great hotel.
The new system has been put in place
upon the most approved plans of science,
under the supervision of such skilled en-
gineeis as Colonel Waring aud General
Thayer, and the work done by the equally
skilled mechanics Messrs Banezet 4 CO.,
of Cape May Four large mains, running
from the eighteen inch sewer far above
the roof of the house, convey away all
gases and vapors, while an endless net
work of pipes carry to the sewer the refuse
of the kitchen, closets and sinks.
To prevent the injection of sewer gas,
SO fatal to household, not connection
of the pipe is made without the Safeguard
of trap" and in most cases double
trap makes assurance doubly sure.
So carefully has this idea prevailed,
that separate pipes have even been pro
vided for the dish pantry and the process
of sorubbing. Every wash basin has been
fitted up with Brewers glass trap and
the closets furnished with Demorest'
basins, perfect preyentives to vile odors
and noxious gases.
The usual basin in slop-snks is metal
with porcelain lining. In place of these,
which keep wholesome but a short time,
solid porcelain basins are used, which can
never corrode.
Surrounding the entire structure is laid
a continuous drain-pipe to receive the
clean rain water from the roof, which is
carried directly to and serves to flush the
main sewer.
The soil beneath the kitchen, closets,
laundry and work-roOms Of the hotel has
been dredged aud replaced by about two
feet Of dry fresh sand, and over this the
air plays freely, having no sense Of damp
ness, much less of stagnant atmosphere.
The Stockton is to-day the best sewer
ed and ventilated hotel in the country,
without any exception, and the improve
ments made rebound greatly to the liberal
enterprise of the management 10 securing
the health and comfort Of the patrons Of
the house.

times boldly speak tho truth about the

its prestige to having adhered tenaeiously

A glance at the sun with good tele-
scope shows that the great luminary is
just now as much disturbed by storms as
the earth. In one place in particular, not
far from the western edge of the sum-
disk there is group of four great spots
which exhibit evidences of cyelonic mo-
ton which foreibly remind the observer
stead of being few hundred yards in di-
ameter, these whirlwinds on the sun, if so
they may be called, include hundreds of
thousands of square miles in their sweep.

One of the most practical and sensible
opinions of the effect of the discussion of
the tariff on the next Presidential cam
paign is this opinion expressed the other
day by Stillman B. Allen, zone of the
veteran Republicans of Massachusetts, ::
'tWhen the question is put to the nation
next year," said he, cit will not be
in the form Is further reform of the
tariff necessary? but in this form ::
Which of the two parties can be most
safely intrusted to reform it prudently
and without shock or injury to the bust
ness interests of the country" To such
question the business men of the coun-
try will hardly hesitate for an answer.
