Where Principle IL EXpedient

The policy OF high license, with local
option 10y counties, Is to be the policy Of
New Jersey. The Republicans u the legl1-
lature carried out their pledges faithfully,
passed the bill which practical Temperance
men thought would do the greatest good,
and repassed IT over the Democratic gov.
ernor's veto. The policy Of New Jersey Il
therefore the policy Of the Republlcan
party.
As to the moral influence aud force Of
such legislation there can be no question
1t will do much to drive the saloon from
politics and TO improve the character OF
political campaigns. As To It's immediate
effect on the strength OF the parties there
WAS considerable doubt; but that doubt is
already giving place to o certainty that 1t
will help the party that originated aud pei
fected ii. There are many individual ev!-
dcuCes Of tits. Among others Mr.. J1mes
:. Bradley, one Of the leading temperance
men Of New Jersey, who has spent mouey
literally in behalf OF the Prohibition party,
comes 10 the front to say that he Is satisfied
with the measure, and that hereafter hs
will work for the Republican party a.,
heartily as he has been working against H.
The New York Ldcpc1dc0,, which is
non-partisau in politics, has a very signifi-
cant article in this lie of thought which
forcibly sums up the results as afr 4cting
parties in this way:
The credit belongs solely to the Baplb icai
party. II made the bill practically a caucus
MEASURE when its fate hung In douSt. II
passed 1t against the all but solid protest Of
the Democratic members. 1t passed II over
the veto in the face Of the refusal Of the third
parry state convention to recognize or approve
1t. The third party would no, even pie ige
itself to help In the enforcement of the law
The Republican party can sand alone ior
practical temperance. The Democratic party,
as a parry. will not help IT, but hundreds OF
lifelong Democrats will, The third party will
not help IL, but scores ana hundreds Of third
party voters will. Neither Of these parties can
prevent that, try they never 50 hard. In the
end the Republican party will win-agl linst
Democrats, against third party partisans
against rewers, distillers, aud the whole army
olsaloon keepers. |, has dared to do right,
and II will win because II deer es to win.
The Republ cans everywhere may learn a
Lesson from the experience Of New Jersey,
and it will profit by f. Even the Demo-
cratic journals cOncede that the Republicans
have done practical work for temperance
and for themselves in this instance, which
will test all their ingenuity to offset, aud
where, as is here manifest, expedency and
right so hand In hand, th,re can be no
doubt as to the policy Of the Republicans
in other states,

sized audience was there to enjoy II. The
"semiramide" overture. rendered By the
orchestra under the direction OF Sgnor

act of Donizetti's "J.lnda of Chamouni'' which
followed. In the role of Linda Miss Abbott,

The event of the evening was Auber's "ThC
Good Devil" in which Miss Abbott donn.c
pantalettes and frollicked about US the mis-.
chieyous Carlo. The manner in which sh.
sang the score OF her role, however, was not d
all boyish. II anything 1t equaled any of hci
previous achievements. Annandale as Cas-
