Again, my text impresses me with the fact
that before reconstruction there must be an
exploration of ruins. Why was not Nehemiah
asleep under the covers? Why was not his
horse stabbed in the midnight? Let the police
of the city arrest this midnight rider out on
some mischief No, Nehemiah is going to re-
build the city, and he is making the prelinin-
ary exploration. In this gate, out that gate
east, west, north. south. All through the
ruins. The ruins must be explored before the
work of ofreconstruction can begin. The reason
that so many people in this day, apparently
converted, do not stay converted is because
they did not first explore the ruins of their
own heart.
The reason that there are so many professed
Christians who in this day lie and forge and
steal, and commit adultery, and go to the peni-
tentiary. is because they first DO not learn the
ruin OF their own heart. They have not found
out that 'the heart is deceitful above all
tnlngs. and desperately wicked They had an

TIE RROOG(YN T1Y-RATE,

The withholding of the taX-Iate in Brooklyn
is another Of Mayor ChapinS characteristic
iuggles This is the first municipal canvass
over the river in dozen years i'll which tax
payers have not been allowed to know whether
taxation has increased or decreased during the
administration drawing to a close Mayor Cha
hin lacks the courage to tell the people of
Brooklyn the plain facts of the case. He
knows that the taX-rate will be the highest that
has been recorded in many years, but he delib-
eratey keeps back information which would
influence a large body of voters. His party
managers have told him that it would be dis
astrous to have the truth come out before cleo
tiOn and consequently he has recourse TO con-
temptble evasons and subterfugeS in explain
ing the present state of municipal finances.
Brooklyn taxpayers should not be deceived
If the taN-rate were not abnOrmally high it
would be announced authontatively in time to
allow them to cast their ballots intelligenty
With increased valuations of S21, 000,0 600,
which ought to secure a reduction in taxation
the rate will undoubtedly exceed SO, and be
the highest that has been known in twenty
Yeas. Local Improvements cannot be urged
in explanation of this increase, since bond issues
were applied to those purposes. The increased
rate is the natural result of machine govern
ment and Shevlinized administration. Mayor
Chaplin with his political ambitions for the
next nomination for Governor is a luxury which
the taxpayers of Brooklyn have 10 pay for
roundly.

TILE R35.lNI-

1t appears from the official returns that
Grover Cleveland Of Newly ork, received
635, 965 votes when he ran for the Presidency
last year. What has become of these Cleve-
land supporters? The hearts of how many of
them are still true to Cleveland? As many
as 100000? As many as 90, 600? AS many
as 10000? As many as 1000? AS many as
100?
Statistics on this point are in order in view
Of the treatment which Grover Cleveland
received at the hands of David b. Hill at the
recent Democratic State Convention and has
received since. That was cOncededly a Hill
convention through and through The
delegates were simply so many pieces
of clay in the hands Of Hill. He it was
who dictated the papieI-m ache) ticket and the
platform. Everybody is aware of this, and
everybody is also aware that Hill used the con-
vention to weaken and humiiate the Demo-
cratic ex-President. Hill found two golden
opportunities at Syracuse to hit the fallen
Cleveland, and he improved them both
Hst-He drove men who were known to be
particularly friendly to Mr.. Cleveland off the
State Committee. We quote from "The New
York Sun's' report OF the conventions
The most complete overthrow Of Grover Cleveland's
friends on the pemocrauc state Committee has even
more significance than appears on the face OF the mat
ter. . The Cleveland men have been fairly
beaten at the end of hard fight and they are even
to-day inclined TO die hard No one can talk 10
any one of these dehrOned district chiefaips without
being made OF their own manner and confessions
how keeny they have been hurt in the crash Of the
timber of the falling Cleveland edihce.
How does this strike the 635, 965? Do they
all take kindly to this cold-blooded attempt Of
Whiskey's Governor to down Cleveland in his
own State? Can it possibly be that to man
the 635 900 have lost whatever regard they
once had for the Democratic leader who was
their choice for the Presidency only year ago
Second-Not content with his boycott of the
Cleveland committeeman, Hill must needs re-
fuse the eX-President any sort Of recognition
in the platform as it was originally prepared.
This was the keener snub of the two. A num-
Der of Democratic State Conventions had been
held before New.Yorli's met. and the platform

THE COLLEGE FOOTBALL SEASON.

The struggle for the championship in the inter-
cole gate Football Association began on Satur-
day, at Philadelphia with the game between the
elevens Of Princeton and the University OF
Pennsylvania. During this week the tralIeu
athletes Of Harvard, Yale and Wesleyan Will en-
ter the field as contestants for the supremacy IN
this peculiarly collegiate sport, and at the close
of November the JOY of victory and the dlSap
pointment of de feat will be distributed among
the players after the conventional proportion OF
games won and lost Rarely has any season gwen
such fine promise Of an exciting and vigorous
series of contests in which the issue will depend
on the strength yet to be developed by the sturdy
athletes wearing the colors of Harvard, Princeton
and Yaefor 1t is pre- tty certain that one of these
three colleges viii this year, as in years past,
carry off the champonship-rathe than on the
form already exhibited in the pre-
lmnary practice games Of the players
This element of uncertainty lends additional zest
and interest to the championship warfare, and
renders all attempts to foretell the outcome prema
ture and vain.
Whatever the result may Re, there is no doubt
that lovers of football-and the number is steadily
increasing year by year-will be gratiiied with
an exhibition Of manly sport in which all the
excitement of generous rivalry all the resources
and skill of Undergraduate pluck and muscle, and
all the clever eXpedients of Rugby football as
it has been developed by the American colleges,
are happily combined Football, as it should
be played, is a manly game, and the college
players and llicllers will deserve warm approval
if they persevere in their efforts TO eliminate
all the Objectionable and dishonOable methods
and practices which, a few years ago, threatened
TO ruin this branch of outdoor sport

Such an obstacle has always prevented the Dan

breaking that obstacle, compelled to turn 1t

The expense of the State Government, and us
frightful increase under Democratic rule in New
Jersey for twenty-One consecutive years, are set
forth in document which is being widely cir
culated But the voter who can swallow the pet

sort Of man to care whether his State Government
is extravagaDt and corrupt or not. The free

have his vote honestly counted, are at stake
when a party dominates for Governor the very
man whose tools broke open the ballot-bOx in
Centre Township, Camden County, in 1886, when
Albeit was candidate for Senator, and altered
the ballots before they were counted. By that
crime one Turley was put into an Assemblyman's
seat, though the people had never elected him,
and he had enough Of shameleSsness to take the
place, and Mr.. Albeit was not bit too honest to
fight desperately for an election to the Senate by
the vote of this same Turley. Voters who care
nothing for such crime ought to be robbed,
and deserve an extravagant government
