The annual Encampment at Sea
Girt costs the State altogether too
much money. The scheme for the pur-
chase Of the grounds at an exorbitant
figure, now being urged by the Gov
ernor and other State officials, should
be promptly sat down upon by the
Legislature. If the State must have
an Encampment every year let it take
some of the property now in the hands
of the Commissioners of the Sinking
Fund. There are several handsome
farms held by that Board for the State
ample in size for the manipulation of
the entire New jersey National Guard
There is no sense in wasting the public
money at Sea Girt, when we already
have suitable properties owned and
paid for.

HUMPHREYS SPECIFIC VETERI-
NARY MANUAL,

For the cure of the diseases of horses,
cows, sheep, hogs, dogs and poultry.
We are in receipt of the fourth re
vised and enlarged edition of Hum
phreys Veterinary Manual with chart
(425 pages. That DR.. Humphreys has
presented in this Manual system of
treatment that is at once simple and
devoid of danger is unquestioned.
That he las also system which is sue
cessful in curing the diseases of do
mestic animals, as we'll as simple and
harmless, he brings a wonderful array
of facts to prove. 1t is very difficult
to read over in his catalogue the testi-
mony of hundreds of intelligent per-
sons from every part of the country,
and of every position OF life, and not
be convinced This being admitted,
we have then an entire system of treat
ment for domestic animals, so simple
that any intelligent owner, or his man,
can use his Veterinary Specifics abso-
lutely without danger or injury to the
animal, and with a success heretofore
unknown. This system has now been
in use twenty-five years and is pre-
sumed to have passed its novitiate and
has secured a place and standing not
readily assailed. Several new articles
have been added, and the entire work
has been enlarged and revised so as to
bring it to the most advanced position
of Veterinary Manuals. With these
additions and annotations, we COM
mend it to the attention of all engaged
in the breeding and handling of do
mestic animals, as embodying the most
plain, concise, simple, and yet effect
i've method of treatment ever offered
to the public.

The Cape May County Republican
Convention is called to meet at Cape
May Court House, Saturday, October
Sd, at 2 o'clock. At that time candi-
dates for State Senator and Assembly
man are to be nominated. This will be
animportant Convention because upon
its action will probably depend the
next Senatorship from that County.
The Republicans of Cape May have
a clear majority of not less than two
hundred when they are not divided by
personal iealousies and factional quar-
rels. For two terms, six years in all,
the county has been misrepresented in
the Senate. This ought not to be.
Harmonious action on the part of the
Convention. and the nomination of a
candidate free from any of the past
differences, willnake the county surely
Republican Throughout the State
Republicans are looking toward Cape
May, trusting and hoping that such a
nomination will be made as will bring
assurance of victory.

MORE ABOUT THOMAS

Internal Revenue Collector Thomas
NJ. Ferrell is said to be much exercised
over the newspaper criticism which
he has recently received. He has taken
it to heart so much that he won't even
speak to the PIONEER man as he
passes by. This won't hurt the poor
editor half as bad as it will Thomas.
1t shows, however, a lack of political
sagacity on Toms part. The skillful
politician always mods and speaks to
his opponents. Not 50 with Ferrell.
On the contrary, when :.e sees a hostile
editor approaching he PAGES up and
down the platform (Giassboro) in ma
jestic style, mutton chop whiskers at
right angles with the breeze, and al
lows the Gentle to pass 10y unnoticed
by His High Mightiness.
And, by the way, this reminds us
that since the late trouble in the Dem
ocratic camp over eX-Mayor Smalley' S
appointment as Deputy Collector,
Thomas has had his hands full TRYING
to explain the reason why he didn't
appoint a representative of labor as he
had repeatedly declared he would.
There was one man whom he couldn't
pacify until he had sent note inform
ing the gentleman that. be (FerrelD
would make it all right by getting him
a position either in the Philadelphia
Custom House, or on the Capitol Police
force at Washington. Ben. G.. is the

tions of Mrs. Meyer in voice culture in
the past, know that she ranks among
the very best teachers in that depart
ment in the country.

there is an illustrated article on the

camp, and have an interview with the
explorer on Hawkes. Peak. near Mon
terey, California, and the information
which is impaired has very impor-
tant bearing on the fortunes of the
Americans. 1t is well told. Then
there are short stories, poetry, house
hold matters, funny articles, curious
subjects, engravings, puzzle pages,

pole. He is making Republican speech

This will be cider year. Apples
have never been known to be more
plentiful in Connecticut though here
and there the crop has been blighted
by insects. A ride in any direction
will disclose tree after tree laden with
apples so that the limbs fairly bend
beneath their weight, in cases to the
point of breaking. Even the misera
BILE, scraggly, gnarly tees growing by
the roadside have t'4 fruit strung
upon their branches as thick as onions
suspended from a string in country
store. Under the circumstances it is
likely that there are more apples than
can or will be consumed by the mar
ket, and as other States share this
abundance with Connecticut it is pre-
sumable that thousands of bushels will
find their way into cider mills. - Water

General Sewell paid a high compli-
ment to Ex-Governor Parker in his
speech at the recent reception in Cam
den. He said that Governor Parker
was a Democrat who loved his country
better than bis party or his life, and
that during the war he always had his
quota of men ready for the field long
before those of other States And the
General told the truth. Joel Parker
stands high with the people of this
State, regardless of party. He was
one of the few Democrats who were on
the right side during the war for the
Union
