IT will not be many months until
HE Republicans Of this State will be
talled upon TO nominate candidate
lor Governor, and who the man will
be, or where he shall be selected from,
ire questions that are already claiming
.ttention. 1t will be a piece of suicidal
iolly for candidate to be selected by
clique and pushed upon the conven.
non, as has been done in the past, and
we have no hesitation in saying that ii
luch course is followed 1t will end in
certain defeat. The Republican party
10 now united and nothing should be
done that will ever again divide it into
factions, consequently a candidate
should be selected who will preserve
this unity, and for whom every Repub
lican in the State can corsclentiously
cast his vote. AS we have two United
States Senators from this county, the
candidate for Governor must necessa.
rily come from Kent or Sussex, and
while the names Of several gentlemen
OF the former county have already been
mentioned in connection with this mat
ter, we think the honor be ongs to
Eussex.
At the last election this county gave
2 Republican majority Tor the first
time In many years. and ii certainly is
entitled to some recognition. Kent
county went partially Republican, but
we all know the causes that led TO ii.
Whether those causes will still prevail
In 1890, Is more than can be foretold
at present, but 1t is very certain they
will not, if the persuasive eloquence OF
the missionaries appointed some time
ago can have any effect In calming
the troubled waters Of Democracy. A
candidate from Sussex would make
that county sure, and as there can be
but little il any doubt in reference to
New Castle county, Republican Gov.
ernor and Legislature would b. assur-
ed. There is yet sufficient time TO
consider this matter, and also who the
candidate should be, but as there are
several available men In the county.
either of whom would make stron 2
candidate, there would not be any dill,
Guilty on this score.

deducting 81 046, 1911 33 above shown as

RIGHTS DENIED THE NEGRO.
Among Them Is the Right to Get Soft
Sits; Hence This Meeting.

Among Them Is the Right to Get Soft
Sits; Hence This Meeting.
The members of the Fifth District Col
ored Republican Association and the
CoIored Citizens Association met last
evening and organized themselves into a
branch of the Afro-American League of
America.
Mr.. A. B. Cosey called the meeting to
order and stated the object of the League.
He declared that it was the only method
whereby the colored Republicans could
obtain the rights guaranteed to them by
the constitution. Among these rights
are the privilege of sharing in the offices
and patronage at the disposal of the gen
eral government.
Mr.. Cosey called attention to the fact
that in no department under control of
the Republican party in this State have
the colored men a representative, while
every other nationality has. This he de-
clared was not because there were not
honest men among the colored Republi-
cans competent to fill the offices and loyal
to the party, but because they were ig-
nored by the Administration
1t was time, he declared, that the colored
Republicans made themselves felt.
The branch was then organized by the
election of these officers:-President. A.
B. Cosey; vice president, g. T. Close;
secretary. L. w. Williams; treasurer, r.
A. Mills; sergeant-at-arms, Joseph Green
wich.
A. B. Cosey and 7. L. Cline were
elected delegates to the convention of the
League, which will be held in Chicago
on January Is.

A RACE With JUSTICE.
Chief Murphy Gets in
Ahead on the Green
Goods Operator.

Chief OF Police Murphy walked into the
Office of THE JERSEY CITY NEWS this
afternoon and called up the County jail
on the telephone.
Had Wallace got away" he asked,
after the usual interchange of hellos,
before Dalton got there? He hadn't, eh!
Good for that!''
THAT SAID the Chief, turning tc one
of the News reporters, lends as lively
chase as ever saw between the police
and criminal"
Wallace is the green goods runner who
had been sent to the depot in this
city to conduct the two Tennessee seed
sewers whom the police spotted at the
depot a few days ago, to green goods
headquarters on Forty-second street,
New York.
He and they were taken to the police
station, they as witnesses and he as
criminal. The police believed that they
had Wallace dead to rights, and were
surprised when they learned that the
Grand Jury had not indicted him.
PLAYING AT CROSS PURPOSES.
Wallace got on to the failure of the
Grand Jury to act as soon as the police
did and it was not long before ex-J udge
Garretson, his counsel, was hustling in
the liveliest kind of way to get him out
of Jail.
Information that the police had deter
mined to- have him held for the unlawful
use of the United States mail If the
Grand Jury refused to hold him on the
other charge, set the ex-Judge hustllng
all the livelier.
He bad rather the better of the police
for they had not yet secured possession of
the letter to one of the imprisoned
Grangers, on which they were to base
their new. proceedings. That did not reach
their hands till 10 O'Clock. Then, COM
plant was made to United States Com
missioner Romaine, and a warrant was
issued for Wallace's arrest.
LUCK WITH THE POLICE.
Meanwhile Judge Garretson was in the
Prosecutors office demanding Wallace'S
release. Why?
Because, Judge Garretson answered,
"the Grand Jury has refused TO indict
him."
''if he is not Indicted we have nothing to
do with him. Justice Stilsing is your,
man."
Justice Stilsing had slim court this
moruing. BY the time Judge Garretson
reached him Stilsing had gone, and it
took the ex-Judge some time to reach
him, and to secure his warrant for his
green goods clients discharge.
United States Commissioner Romaine's
warrant for his rearrest had meanwhile
been placed by Chief Murphy in Detective
Daltons hands. The detective headed
for the Jail at the top of his speed, and
reached there before ex-Judge Garretson
had succeeded in getting the prisoner
beyond his reach.
Birdsall the order for his release Wallace
will be taken before Mr.. Romaine to be
held to await the action of the United
States Grand Jury.

SEWERAGE DISCUSSED.
All Sides Of the Question Repre-
sented in a Conference.

A conference between the city authori-
ties. the Pennsylvania Railroad Company
and committee of citizens over the Sec
ond and Fourth street sewers was held in
Corporation Counsel Edwards Office this
morning
There were present:-Su Superintendent
Jackson, Engineer Brooks and Coun-
sellor vreedenburgh. counsel of
the Pennsylvania Railroad !; Com
missioners Van Keuren, Somers,
Dugan and Engineer Ruggles, of the
Street and Water Department, President
Edelstein, and Commissioners Brady
Hilller and Allen, of the Board OF Finance,
Or. |. n. Quimby, John Wild. John
Lynch. Mr. O'Connor and Counsellor D
B. Ransom, of the Citizens Committee:
The citizens were in favor of having the
brick sewers continued from their present
termination at Henderson street through
the filled in ground in Harsimus Cove to
tide water.
AS DR.. Quimby spoke of the wrongs the
persons whose homes are drained by the
sewers have suffered by reason OF
the choking up of the wooden
boxes, which the company built
to conduct the sewage to the river, he
became indignant and declared that the
railroad company ought to be indicted for
lnduSlaugnUer.-
Superintendent Jackson laughingly
said that would be too hard on the poor
railroad company.
The engineers expressed the opinion
that If the sewers should be built as de-
sired by the citizens they would not work
properly owing to the formation of the
ground, but would back the water up
into the houses as bad is if done now.
The citizens took exception to this
statement and it was finally agreet that
the matter should be left to Engineers
Ruggles and Brooks and an engineer to
be selected by the citizens.
Corporation Counsel Edwards sug
gested that the citizens secure the sigma
lures of all the residents along Second
street to petition calling upon the
Board of Street and Water Commission
ers to continue the sewer, and that would
bring the matter to head. The con-
ference then adjourned for two weeks.
The citizens held meeting afterward
at the Office of S. B. Ransom, and made
arrangements to secure the services of an
engineer. They prepared petition to
be presented to the residents on Second
street for signatures, as suggested by Mr..
Edwards

Gus friends.

terian Church, assisted by the Rev. J. +.
Thompson, of the First Uniyersalist
Church, both of whom delivered brief,
touching address. A quartette sang
"Jesus, Lover of my Soul" and Nearer
my God to Thee" A large number of
friends accompanied the body to Ever
green Cemetery, Long Island.

Too Big Cor Unaerstanaing.

We are familiar, thanks to the astron-
omers, with figures representing prodigy
Gus distances, and it is perfectly safe to
say that those figures are nearly mean
ingless to us, save as they represent an
extension indefinitely and inconceiyably
big. We are taught that the moon is
238, 900 miles from the earth, so to speak
in round numbers, and that the earth
is 92,000,000 miles from the sun. Then it
is said, as if we could comprehend it, that
the earth has velocity in its orbit of
nineteen miles in second. We are told
regarding the velocity of light it flies
through space at about 100000 miles a
second, and we accept it as if we under
stood it, together with the companion
statement that light from the nearest
fixed star requires over forty years to
reach us, while the scintillations from
the telescope stars must have started on
their ethereal flight hundreds or thou
sands of years before reaching the terres-
trial beholder. But, though the figures
are true, yet they can convey but little
meaning to the human mind.

CHILDREN ABLAZE.
FriGhtfuI Accident at Christmas
Cantata Rehearsal.


DETROIT. Dec. 20, 1Ss9-Thirty children
of Tilden, Mich, public school, were re-
hearsing yesterday afternoon for a
Christmas Cantata. One accidentally
knocked with her wand a candle from
the hands OF another who was holding it
for the accompanist. Fire was communi-
Gated to the children's dresses and a pile
of combustible stuff near by
The costumes of the children took fire
instantly, and before the teachers could
put out the flames sixteen of them were
badly burned-two fatally, three SO badly
that they will die, and three others SER
iously.
An alarm brought police and hospital
ambulance to the scene. The physicians
have no hope of the recovery of five of the
chill dren.
Ten other children were seriously
burned.
The scene during the panic ensuing the
blaze was sfrightful one. Two of the
little lads, Edward Wheeler and Alexan-
der Mcmillan, pulled the burning cos
tunes off the children and tore the flags
and draperies from the walls, thus pre-
venting the spread of the flames. The
ambulances removed the children to their
homes
