MANY TONS OF BALLOTS.

Here are facts and figures not usually
appended to election returns. The
history Of past elections teaches that
this vote Of the nation advances from
President to President by steps meas
ured in numbers by 10 per cent. The
total vote 1868 wa 5,724,G54; of 1872,
was GAGS, 800; of 1876, was 6,412, 1888;
of 1880, was 9,210,070. Add 10 per
cent. to this last total and the estimate
for this vote going into the ballot boxes
will be 1922, 067, an approXima-
ton borne out by other calculations
and which will be found not far out of
the result. A ballot is a piece of paper
averaging four inches wide and l0t
long. One hundred and fifty ballots
will weigh about a pound. Two nun
bred and fifty ballots laid OF each other
will measure about an inch. To pre-
pare these bits of paper at a reasonable
profit costs ninety cents a thousand
If the ballots cast were placed end
to end they would reach in a con-
tinuous line from Washington, ID. c.,
to FL Paso, in Texas, or they would
stretch from EaEtport. Me, to New
Orleans, as the I flies. If n end
Of the long line of paper were made
fast at Cape Flattery, the extreme
northwestern %promontory Of Wash
ington Territory, the other end would
pass Kansas City, with enough miles
to spare to reach Sedalia.
This has to do only with the ballots
actually voted. The number of ballots
printed, of course, is tremendously lar
ger than the amount voted. In st.
Louis, for instance, the Democrats
have had 60, 900, the other parties in
all 700, 600, making for this II town
a total of 1900, 600. 1t is generally
admitted, however, that the vote Of
St. Louis will not, at the outside,
make more than $4,000. Here, then,
is a surplus of twenty-six ballots for
each one to cast This makes the

It is. claimed by QuarteTmaster Get-
eral Pelripe that General sewell
refused him a detail Of soldiers to guard
the provisions intended TOR the troops
at the Freehold monument dedication
recently, and that the rations being
thus left unprotected were swooped
down upon by hungry civilian visitors
and devoured, the troops going with
out. The caterer and his employees
have made aAidavits that there WAS
ample food ordered and shipped. Ma
ior General Mott is making a careful
inquiry into the matter, and it is sur
missed that a c0urt-martial may grow
out of the affair.
The proposition to make two new
counties in New jersey is again being
agitatrd and will be considered at the
approaching session of the Legislature.
The first of the new counties is to be
formed 0 1t Of that part Of Monmouth
Cou"ty that lies along the s~eashOre,
and would include all the seaside re-
sorts from Sandy Hook TO Sea Grit
in all likelihood, Red Bank, Eeypart
and Matawan. Either Long Branch
or Red Bank would be the seat of the
new county. The 0taer of the pro-
posed counties would be carved out of
the counties of Union, Somerset and
Middlesex. 1t would include Bound
Brook, PlaiLfeld, Westaeld, Crawford
and Roselle. Plainfeld would probably
be the county seat.
The cholera scare has set the New
Jersey State Board of Health to work.
They are renewing the instructions
they issued last summer, and are seAd-
ing out circulars giving concisely the
nature of the disease and the best
known %preventives and remedies,
DR.. Z. NJ. Hunt, Secretary of the
Board, was seen at his Office in
the State Capitol, and said: TN
case cholera reaches this country it
shall be our endeavor to keep it from
Jersey. Besides issuing circulars, we
will try at once to compel authorities
TO enforce the strictest public and pri-
vate cleanliness. Jersey City is an
especially dangerous spot from the fact
that vessels from Hamburg and other
unsafe ports land their passengers there.
Several days ago / served formal notice
on the Mayor and President of the
Board of Health of that city, warning
that they are in danger of the infect, n
and were in no condition to withstand
it. There should be an inspection Of
every arriving vessel" Dr.. Hunt
attended al important copfer,n nee OF
quarantine officers and health guar
dams in New York the other day,
where the opinion was expressed that
cholera is surely cGmlng.

duty Of The Democratic party to re
assure The negroes concerning their

they have more cause fer rejoicing than

only will they be secure in all their
political rights, hut as most OF them
must depend upon their daily toll for a
living they wn largely participate IN

WASHINGTON LETTER.

You may Imagine if you can what
we shall do with our mad patients
when the Government thieves begin to
set up the plea of insanity to rid tkem-
selves of due punishment for their
crimes. Not a saner nal than Col.
Burnside could be found in Washing.
ton during the time that he was steal
ing the Governments money, and no
society at the Capital was too elevated
to open its arms to receive him. As
soon as it became inevitable that his
conviction for stealing was to follow
his crime, the plea of insanity is put
up and the epauletted crank goes to the
Government Insane Asylum, there to
remain until public forgetfulness shall
make his absence frem that institution
easy to be borne.
The change in the administration
that will take place on the 4th Of
March next is a change that has not
had its counterpart in the history of
the Government. We have had a Dem
ocratic administration before with an
opposition Congress and we have had a
Democratic Congress-a majority of
Democrats in both Houses against q
Wing administration-but never be-
fore has there been an instance when
the administration had the House
CLONE to back it, the Senate to tie us
hands and dictate its appointments.
Such is the position, or rather the d.
lemma, in which President Cleveland
will find himself on Inauguration day,
when he sends the names of his cabinet
members to a Republican Senate for
continuation. know Of no existing
reaSn why Mr.. Cleveland's cabinet
sLoI d not be confirmed without cues
The Penn's Grove record., 1884-11-29

One salutary effect of the change
svill be in l~essening the influence Of
appeals to race prejudice and ignorance
in future political conflicts. There is
NO doubt that the great majority of the
colored people We're persuaded that the
election of Grover Cleveland would be
followed by their degradation from
political rights, if not by a restoration
to slavery. So completely were they
played upon by INSCRIPTIONS partisans
that i'm the Northern States not one in
a hundred of them voted against Mr..
Blaine. Ii a negro was suspected of a
purpose to vote the Democratic ticket
lie was treated as an enemy Of his race.
The foolish fears concerning the de-
signs of the Democratic party which
the colored voters have absorbed may
serve to account for the violent dem
constructions which they have made since
the election in several parts of the
country.
When the negro voters discover how
greatly they have been deceived, and
that THEN political i.hts are as secure
with enc party in power as the other,
the men who have 50 long practlced
upon their ignorance aud fears will
lose influence oTer them forever. They
will no longer vote as a servile eontin-
gent of one party, but they will divide
upon political questions as well as their
white n~eighbors. This will greatly
tend to promote political development
among them. Referring to the fears
Of the colored element, the Eufaula,

TIE GREAT EXPOSITION.

General Barney, who is the Commits
sioner of this state to the New Orleans
Eypositiou, has been visiting that city.
He regards it as important that every
manufacturer intending to exhibit,
should at once send - his office, No.
$50 Washington street, Jersey City, a
specimen of his production, OF a model
or photograph, in order that the depart
ment of New jersey may be as full and
complete as possible. They will be
received and returned free of expense
TO the sender. MI. Barney, in a con-
versation with Il reporter, said that he
was delighted with the prospects, OF the
New Jersey exhibit, and he has been
making arrangements for the reception
and disposition Of the State collection
upon its arrival. 1t is to be forwarded
| in about two or three weeks. Mr.. Bar
ney found the management Of the
Exposition highly gratiiiod at the rapid
progress made in New Jersey since the
| organization of the State Commission,
and willing to afford every assistance
| toward a creditable exhibit from this
State. The space allotted to New Jer-
sew fronts on the p~leasantest side OF
| the Government and State Exhibit
building, commanding a full view OF
the ground, and, besides the exhibit
| space proper, comprises q reception
room or headquarters, containing twelve
hundred square feet, which will be
open for the especial convenience OF
visitors from New Jersey, were they
can find their home newspapers on file,
obtain such information asl they may
need to enable them tQsee.the city and
the great show to the best advantage,
and. in short, where every visiting
Jersayman will be made to feel that he
is at home.
Visitors will find it convenient to
have their letters addressed to the New
Jersey headquarters, as the government
will establish a post Office within a few
hundred feet and mails will be delfv-
cred hourly. The headquarters will be
connected by telephone with the Offices
of the Bureau of Accommodation, loca-
ted in the various districts of the city,
and visitors who have not secured
quarters in advance can thus obtain
the fullest information and engage
them with the least trouble, and can
also attend to the transfer of baggage,
securing sleeping a Accommodations,
and in many ways save Il great deal OF
time and annoyance.
The Exposition huildingsan grounds
will be Illuminated byss electric light
and will be open until 10 p. m. In
front of the New Jersey headquarters
is the standpipe of the Exposition water
main, 100 feet higl, CT ornamental
design and arranged to form a colossal
fountain with Il series OF jets squirting
from its side every twenty feet, the
whole surmounted by Il cluster of arc
electric lights like those in Union
Square, New York.
Commissioner Barney has just re-
ceived the announcement from the
Director General that the Exposition
will be formally opened by President
Arthur, on December 18th, at y
O'Clock noon. Applications for space
will be received until November 10Th,
and exhibits until December 10th.
Steam to test the machinery will be
used November 25th.-Conier.

spectnrs for the Territory of Dakota, stop
ped here for the purpose of hearing COM
plants Of wheat grading from the farm
ers. Owing I o the fact that the notitica-
ton Of the date fixed upon did not reach
here till Sunday morning, there was not
time to get sufficient Snotice to the farm
ing community to secure a general meet
ing. Quite a number of our citizens,
however, repaired to the depot, and not
knowing Of any complaints having been
made, of course were not prepared to
present any, and spent a few moments in
pleasant chat with the INSPECTORS. Sam
ples of wheat we're furnished them,
was pronounced very fine, While the
bows were talking Mr.. 0chsenreiter got
hold Of Mr.. Prior and pointed out the
fact that the coal shed was in the street,
and that there was a necessity foT ming
IN and grading around the depot; which
Mr.. Prior promised shonld be done. II
Il is. the meeting will not be without

shows that a shameless violation of law

same fate Iowa gave it. wherever it is
