REG1sTRATloN IN NEW-JERSEY.

The last day for registration in Jersey City
and Newark is this day. lie who does not
make known his claim to vote before this day
ends will have deprived himself OF his iran
chise The personal presence of the voter is
required in every case and registration at any
previous election will be of no avail Ii natu-
rallied the voter must be prepared to produce
his papers lest his right to register should be
doubted There are voters in each party 10
whom these provisions of law seem annoying.
But every honest citizen ought TO remember
that they are strictly reasonable and necessary,
for the purpose of rendering the vote OF the
honest citizen effective. In no other way is IL
possible to prevent the fraudulent voting by
which the will of thousands of citizens has In
times past been neutralized and killed by re-
peaters, by voting dead men and absentees,
and by the many tricks through which the
legally qualified voters have So often been dc
feated The man who is not willing to take
some trouble himself in order to prevent illegal
voting, by which his vote might be rendered
useless does not care much for his franchise
So it is also, with the provision for closing
the polls early enough to secure fair count
and return Of the votes before the officials and
competont watchers separate. Some voters
NAV lose their votes through their own neglect
to 60 to the polls in season. But in times past
it has too often happened that the ateness OF
the hour has prevented the completion OF the
count and the return until after competent
watchers had been compelled to leave and
there had been ample opportunities for tamper-
ing with the ballots. Every provision of law
to secure a fair vote and honest count must
involve inconvenience to some. Those who
value their rights will make ali the sacrifice and
take all the trouble that may be needed In
order to prevent the frauds by which they and
others would be effectualy robbed Of their
rights.
1t is characteristic that Democratic orators
in New-Jersey. IS in other States hitherto, are
everywhere declaring against laws for the pro-
lection of the right of suffrage. They know
very well that every provision to secure an
honest vote and an honest count lessons Demo-
cratic hopes of success, in Northern as well as
in Southern States. Let Republicans take care
to register and then to enforce the law faith
fully. After that they will find abundant
reason to commend the wisdom of those VINO
framed and enacted laws to protect the purity
of the suffrage.

The Mills bill ought to be no longer an issue
about which people differ, at least as respects
its meaning or purpose. From the lirSt there
has been sngulary little room for dispute
about its intention or its industrial character
The exclusion of all representatives Of work
ingmen and farmers from the committee rooms
where it was prepared, and the admission Of
the representatives Of the sugar Trust and
Mr. Moore, the agent of foreign importers, de-
termines the character Of the bill for reason
ing minds. The labored argument for free raw
materials. followed by refusal to admit iron orc
and coal free of duty, because these would cost
the Democratic party Virginia and West Nir-
ginia, if not Alabama, made the dishonesty OF
the measure obvious. The heavy reduction
made in the duties for protection. compared
with the insignificant reduction in duties of Il
revenue character, accorded perfectly with the
speeches Of all influential supporters of the
measure who declared that the protective
principle was vicious and unjust, as President
Cleveland had affirmed and that their aim was
to get rid of il far rs they could.
1t is disgrace to the Democratic party that
after all this such a speech as that delivered
would not have been necessary again to de-
monstrate the hostility of this measure to the
protective system if there had not been for
months an amazing audacity of Democratic ly-
ing about it-a persistent effort TO deceive the
people about intentions which in Congress were
boldly avOwed. Nor would it have been neces-
sary for Mr. Blaine to illustrate the shameless
inconsistency, sectionalism and partSanShp Of
the pending measure if it had been in any
sense an honest effort TO reform The tariff. Mr.
Blaine submits a host Of proofs that it is not /;
that the very freo-tradc theories upon which the
bill was based, and which have governed its
most important provisions were deliberately
violated in order to enrich influential Demo
Gratis, in order to save Democratic trusts or
specuatiOns, and in order TO secure Democratic
votes. Where neither pocket nor party could
be helped where the law making power could
not be bartcred off for cash or votes, the free
trade theories still prevailed, and the indus
tries Of the country were ruthlessly assailed in
the interest Of foreign importers and man
ufacturcrs.
Mr. Blaine showed that great changes were
elaborated by Democratic leaders. and formally
proposed. and that these changes were made
not at all because they were thought to be for
the public good. On the contrary, they were
declared to be hostile to the public welfare, and
yet they were made because Democrats Of

And still there are Democrats who insist that
the protective system has not benefited the
working people. Let few more figures from
the census volume on wages show what the
change has been in wages and prices
A cabinet maker in New ork earned 81 80
per day in the last year Of Democratic tariff,
and paid S35 for a bedroom suite. In 1880
the cabinet maker in the same establishment
earned 50 so per day, and paid $40 for the
bedroom suite on which he worked. In Demo-
cratic times the suite cost 3 days labor; after
twenty years of protection it cost him days
labor.
A brick moulder worked in 1860 TOR 81 20
in a New Jersey establishment, and the hard
brick sold for SO per thousand In the same
establishment the moulder earned 81 10 in
1880. and the brick on which he worked sold
for 81. To buy thousand of the brick he
helped to make under Democracy he would
have given days and half of his work; under
protection only 4 days.
4 forger in a Connecticut axe establishment
earned 50 per day in 1860, and the axes ne
made were selling at 81 per dozen. In 1880
he earned SO % per day, and the axes sold
at SO so. To buy dozen cost HIM IL days
labor under Democracy and IL days labor
under protection.

the party did not abandon its convictions OF
duty for their benefit. The result is mercy to
important industries of certain States, and yet
these are warned that continued Democratic
success will mean destruction for them. When
ever that party finds itself strong enough to
disregard the protests Of its interested con-

cumbent on it not to abuse its power. We are
