The Sunday tatler and Jersey City express. (Jersey City, N.J.) 1883-1886, 1885-01-18

The World says that the Democrats in
the New Jersey Senate appear to have sold
themselves very cheaply. Well, it probably
does look that way to the average New
Yorker, BUTT isn't a good plan to fire gun
when it is only half loaded or when it is
pointed in direction exactly Opposite
the mark the marksman desires to hit. If
the World keeps cool and watches affairs
at Trenton with only one eye it may learn
something before the session is over.

A Texas paper was moved to inquire
sswhat's in Manner simply because Jesus
Christ has been hanged in Mexico for horse
stealing. The name is very common one
among the Mexican and Spanish people
but unfortunately the owners Of it are not
always exemplars of morals or honesty.

FAVOR TO THE RAILROADS.

The act Of the Legislature, while it is a
great step in advance, does not impose
upon railroad corporations the same bur
dens that are imposed upon the property
of individuals. It limits the rate that shall
be paid to the State to one-half of one per
cent; it limits the amount that shall be
paid to the localities to one per cent. and
exempts large and valuable portion of
railroad property from all local burdens.
If the bill that passed the Assembly, i'm
posing the same taxes upon these corpora
tons that are imposed upon individuals,
had no Just cause Of complaint. but the
Senate, deeming such step too radical,
modified the provisions of the Assembly
bill and gave advantages to these corpora
tons, the extent of which has not been
heretofore generally known. 70 illustrate

"How Is this? Senator Coke has a
large farm down below Waco, which
is titled by convict labor, We rather
think he should be boy-cotted. We
don't think aly man should represent
free Texans in the national congress,
who has his farm cultivated by con-
victs. Senator Coke may be a smart
man and an efficient statesman, but
he is not in sympathy with the labor
ers.-Denison Labor Siftings.
Senator Coke has large farm on
the Brazos (that is about the only
truth in the abovel but 1t is cult
waited alone by free white and colored
voters of Texas, aud there never has
been convict, either state or county,

state convict ever been worked on
any farm in this county. The county
convicts are worked only on the
county farm. viii the Denison Sift-
ings have the manliness to copy this

A BIG majority of the Texas dele

in favor of giving the offices to demo-

Uncle Grover is likely 90 hear from

What General Ross and Senator
Maxey need now is to get the tongues
of some of their newspaper advo-
Gates IN sling.-Houston Post.
Whenever newspaper can't say
anything else, II eau always fall back
on the above formula. 1t takes no
brain to write like that, aud it might
require little to answer the posi-
tons taken In favor of the gentlemen
named. The above is not worthy of
the Post under Mr.. Johnston, how
ever much it would have been In
keeping under the old management.
If we were TO retort, and for Ross
and Maxoy substitute Swain and Ire
land, our point would be just as good
as that the Post thinks IL has made
Waco EXAMINER.
= he Post will take occasion to say
that it had no reference to the EXAM
INER or its editor in the above. The
remark was suggested by reading an
abusive sheet at Paris, Tex. which is
advocating both Ross and Maxey.
So far as the Post is able to Judge,
the EXAMINER has done excellent
work for General Ross. and certainly
has had the good sense not to de-
stray its influence in that line by
abuse of other aspirants. The abuse
of public men INDUCED in by some
papers is not only wrong in princi-
pal, but, in the estimation of the Post
unjournalistic and unprofessional.-
Houston Post.
A sentiment which the News heart
lily endorses, and trusts that the sug-
gestions of the Post will be needed.
So far as the Waco EXAMINER is con-
cerned, the News has always found it
manly opponent that scorns to
stoop to abuse of the, candidates
whom it sees fit to oppose. If the
gubernatorial campaign cannot be
conducted in any other manner. it
would be far better to drop the sub
ject entirely.

CRASFILL says that Senator Coke Is
ian avowed infdel." Is this true
Midlothian News.
This Of course is untrue. We know
from long acquaintance with the
distinguished subject Of the above
would-be-slander, that while not a
member of any church, he is yet a
firm believer in the truth OF the chris
tian religion, and one of its most lib
eral supporters IN this 'ity. The sen.
atOr's wife has been a member of the
Baptist church for thirty years, and
thus 1t comes that the Baptist is the
senator's family church. II is hardly
necessary to defend our neighbor
from such a charge in this cOmmu-
nifty, but 1t is due to his friends else.

A Poor Royal Fiddler.

From the London World.
The usual Saturday afternoon en-.
tertainments at Brighton were sup
plemented last week by a concert at
the dome. the principal attraction of
which was performance on the fid-
die by the duke of Edinburgh. Ro-
man emperors used to appear as glad
iators, and no doubt "drew" enor-
mously to the circus, though possibly
they could not glsdiate any better
than the British prince can fiddle,
which he does, am told, very badly.
But Brighton, though coldly treat cd
by the governing classes, is very rO-
val and attended in its hundreds, un-
gratefully leaving its old favoritc.
