There's nothing mean about County

Look at his bill, on behalf of the county,
against the city, Nearly a million of
dollarsl The way be makes it is by hold
ing the city responsible for the county
tax on all the property 1t has been obliged
to bid in on arrearages. That's mighty
neat claim to make against city that
under its charter is obliged to pay the
county tax only as fast as it collects it
from The tax payer. We haven't been
able to find lawyer yet who believes the
claim will hold water. Then he doesn't
want to make allowance to the city for
overpayments of tax in former years. The
city could undoubtedly sue the county
and recover the amount of these oyerpay-
ments back again, and Mr.. Lippincott
will probably find them mighty lively off
sets against his enormous claim AT the
same time we have no fault to find with
him. 1t is bis business to claim as much
as there is the remo!est chance of his re-
covering.

The change of the name of this Episco-
pal Diocese by the Diocesan Convention,
at East Orange, from Northern New Jer-

considerable interest TO Episcopal readers
of the TATTLER. The name now accept
ed was suggested TO the Convention at the
time Of the separation of the old Diocese,
but, for fear of confusion with the Catho-
lie Diocese of Newark, the suggestion was
not accepted. There has always been a
preference. however, among the clergy
men Of this Diocese for The name now
adopted, and its adoption is no surprise.

The singular infatuaton of man for a
worthless woman was shown last week in
the Golden-Fahey elopement case. The
injured husband spent more time and
money in following his faithless wife over
the country TO her hiding place than she
was worth; and then. after she had dis
honored him, tried to induce her TO return
to him by imprisoning her paramour. Mr..
Golden should lake divorce from his
wife, and, if he must have some one 10
caress, marry again. Let him console
himself with the philosophy that there are
better fish in The sea than ever were
caught, and try life anew with new wife.

right to subject her to the humiliation and
indignity Of an arrest. The TArrLER had
no difficulty in learning how baseless was
the suspicion upon which she was logged
away from her family, and the evidence
which was at our hands was certainly at
theirs. Even after they made the error
they might have measurabIy repaired Ii
by Withdrawing the complaint. but they
went through the farce of marshaling be-
fore Police Justice Stilsing an array of

Senator Harrisons great victory in this cleo
ton remains, irrespective of any final fact in the
result We are well aware that it is the victory of
the people of Indiana; that to a signally encour-
aging extent the individual voter made up his
ballot according to his conscience; that he put
this opportunity to its proper use in passing
upon the management of his State, and indicat-
ed in way that will not be quickly nor lightly
cast aside, what he thought of matters and
things. Nevertheless, it was prominently SEN
ator Harrison above any one man who stated
the case to the jury Of the people, and who went
up and down before them in all the time of the
campaign arguing that case, and he got verdict

When this campaign began the Democratic
State officers were intrenched in majority Of
over 1000. The Democratic Legislature rested
in the power of fortythree majority on joint

Harrison, two months ago, stood up and called
upon his party for an assault all along the line.

LABOR AND ANARCHY.

The Anarchists at Chicago, awaiting the ex-
ecution of the death sentence, pretend to see
in the elections vindication of their ''cause,"
and point to the fact that the workingmen of
Chicago and New York polled very large
vote August Spies said:
'The $4,000 or 90 900 SociaIistic votes that
were cast yesterday were an answer to the YER
dict against the Anarchists. You may see
that the same answer was given in New York
as in Chicago 1t was class vote. 1t was
Socialistc vote; it was a vote of the people
who work for a living against those who live
by theft. The working people are beginning
to see that the only remedy they have is by
the ballot"
This is the point on which the Anarchists
make their fatal mistake. The working peo
pie are beginning to see that the ballot is
something they can use to advance their con-
dition, but it is by no means recent discov-
cry. 1t is something the Anarchists them
selves should have realized and recognized
when they deliberately and persistently set
about to assassinate and slaughter their way
to their desires. There is no kinship between
anarchy and labor; the latter may and will
achieve reform through the ballot, the former
would do away with this popular institution
of the people. There can be no vindication of
anarchy through the ballotbox The moment
the people conform to the peaceable method of
making their wishes known, and of su bmit
ting to the will of the majority, anarchy is
impossible. The best thing that can happen
to labor, or for labor, is to proceed with the
hanging of these ingrates, who have despised
the institutions of their adopted country, and
attempted to set up in their stead lawlessness
and bloodshed as the rule Of action. It would
be damaging to labor to let these arrogant and
defiant scoundrels escape their deserts.
