Last Friday noon, the Legislature Of
New Jersey took recess until June list.
We happened to be present during the
closing hours, and although the "carry-
ings on were said to be moderate COM
pared with the adjournments of many
other years, yet they were such as to
make man blush for several of his
states representatives Bills were read
and passed amidst babel of noises, and
it was very evident that many members
voted blindly on the bills while packing up
the contents of their desks. One fellow,
who was drunk, SHE'D bottle of mucilage
across the room, and another threw a
package of bills at one of the members.
A brainless bunch of fat from one of the
northern counties constantly interrupted
the proceedings with silly remarks which
he was stupid enough to suppose were
witty, and still another member made a
fool of himself by wanting TO introduce a
bill within fifteen minutes of the close of
the sessions.
1t is great pity that the people OF
New Jersey cannot find men of some dig
nifty and decency to represent them in the
House, instead of Doors and clowns. With
so many men of such low conceptions OF
their position, it is not strange that cor
ruption finds foothold, and that good
laws are rejected and bad laws secure
their sanction.

HE SMILED !" so DO WE.
AS was predicted, the Local Option bill
was defeated in the House. While the
failure to pass the bill was not matter
of surprise to those who are acquainted
with the workings of the political ma.
chine, it was not presumed that members
would so openly sacrifice their dignity as
several did who spoke in opposition to
the measure. Mr.. Bolton thought pro-
hibition an excellent thing in principle
but not desirable thing TO put In prac.
tice, while Hunterdon's fluent and faceti.
GUS orator, Mr.. Cicero Wolverton, lidi-
cnled the idea that any one expected the
passage Of the bill. He said he never saw
village with drug store in ii that
wouldn't supply him with all the rum he
wanted. Last summer he went to Ocean
Grove camp meeting to pray, and the
very first morning he got acquainted with
a trustworthy druggist and smiled with
him regularly till he came home again.
This is indeed most forcible argument
against the bill that is without doubt
favored BY three.fourths of tho people of
our State. The fact that Wolverton
'smiles' with druggist who is breaking
n law Of the State, strikes us as being a
rather peculiar admission for man to
make who is supposed to assist in the
creation of law. Does Mr.. Woverton
'.smile" with any one else besides drug.
gists? Legislators whose temperaments
are pa, ticularly mirthful have been known
to smile with corporations, &c. Several
New York Aldermen "smled" recently
with Jacob Sharp, but of course Mr.. VOL
verton's smile is not of this order-its
just little happy ry-day evidence of
contentment and mirth that's all.

The following, from the Trenton En-
porium, is the plain truth:
Commercial business directories ar,
nothing more than genteel Matchmaking
schemes, sort of stand and deliver un
less you subscribe or come down. In ont
of these party In this city is rated al
$50, 600 who isn't worth that many cents
Another is rated tremendously high who
is well-known to have most of his wealth
in his wife's name, and some of the most
substantial business men are rated lower
than others who are known as check ex-
changers"
These directories are published profess
sedly to protect business men, but the fact
is that business men would lose less If
they didn't depend upon them at all In
many instances their false reports of men
being in difficulties has produced that
result just because of such reports. Once
in while the law gets hold Of these SLAM

The man who has carefully studied the
signs of the times must be hopelessly
blind to the situation il he fails to per
ceive in the near future the evidences Of
such political deluge as we have not had
in this country in thirty years. There is
no absorbing issue before the country ex-
cept the possession of the offices; there is
no radical difference between Republican
aud Democratic methods and platforms
except the ioaves and fishes, but every
where looms up the black cloud OF Prohi-
billion, growing hourly blacker and wider
and deeper, terror and threat to both
parties alike. In Iowa 1t has squatted
like the old man of the sea on the neck of
the Republican party aud the patty must

Democracy and Prohibition--as come it

latter was able to take care of itself.
And the result IN Georgia is fureshadowed
in Alabama, in Mississippi and Texas and

THE PISTOL BIT.

Claiming more victims than the opium
habit or intemperance in any form, the pis-
tol-carrying habit is yearly responsible for
a material and utterly uncalled for increase
in the death rate. Although there is a law
against carrying weapons, the number of
men, young and old, who think it neces-
sary to carry arms to protect themselves
from imaginary assailants is astonishing
The large number of pistols sold annually
no exception, demonstrates this fact. It is
further illustrated by brief telegram re-
Gently sent from Denver, in which it was
calmly stated: Mrs. SIDES was killed by
the explosion of a revolver which accident
ally fell from the pocket of EDWARD MAC
KAY" 1t would seem that in making So
cial CALL of all occasions, there could be no
need of turning ones self into walking
arsenal. The average young woman
is only dangerous to ones peace of
mind. She rarely so COMFORTS herself
in such a manner that the force
Of arms is necessary to subdue
her. And if she does, experience has
proven that in most cases the force of the
arms which nature has provided, if judi
ciously applied. is all sufficient. Through
this pernicious pstol-carrying habit TRACE
dies, which would otherwise have been no
more than ordinary fisticuffs, have oc-
Cured, and others are liable to happen at

THE LARnRERs, FRIEND.

The worklngmen Of ST. Paul have no
reason to question the fidelity of the Demo-
cratic party to labor interests. The follow
ing resolution unanimously adopted by the
late Democratic convention in this city de-
fines the position Of the Democratic party
in this respect:
Resolved That the Democracy of the city
of st. Paul are ii accord and sympathy with
the workingmen and labor interests of the
country; that it favors the repeal Of the pres
ent law requiring all city work to be done by
contract, and is in faver of eight hours as
constituting days labor for all men en-
ployed as day laborers; and that it favors all
other measures which will tend to promote
the welfare OF the wOrkingmen, who are the
bone and sinew of the great Democratic
party.
The above resolution was not only adopted
By the unanimous vote of the convention,
but it was adopted With q hearty enthusi-
aSm which carried with it convincing proof
that the Democracy meant every word of
it. On the other hand the milk and cider
resolutions Of the Republican convention
were passed after a prOtracted struggle in
opposition to them, and when passed it was
concededly done upon the argument that it
was policy to do SO. That is the difference
in the attitude of the two parties toward
the laboring classes. Friendship to labor
is a principle with the Democratic party.
1t is only matter Of policy with the Re
publicans, who never have and never will
keep their word with WOrkingmen.
