Grubb and Abbett-Two Pictures.

Grubb and Abbett-Two Pictures.
W. did General Il. Burd Grubb the
justice to present him yesterday, to
the public of New Jersey just as he is.
Our correspondent visited him at his
home, described him and
it as he found them, nothing
extenuating and setting down naught
in malice. We believe this is the first
time the General has been so dealt
with him. The organs of his party
have run to an extreme of ridiculous
fattery, and it must be confessed that
Democratic papers have been inclined
to picture him as the opposing can
didate, and not as the man. E. Burd
Grubb.
We believe we have done him jus
tice,--at least we have tried,-and
certainly no partisan animus inspired
our correspondents pen. But we be-
lieve that in doing full justice to Gen
eral Grubb we have done unreasonable
benefit to Leon Albeit. the candidate OF
our choice, for we are confident that
his transcendent fitness for the high
office of Governor will appear all the
more luminously in contrast with the
negative recommendations of General
Grubb.
Our correspondent found General
Grubb, a gentleman-wealthy, hos
pitable, polished. He has the advan-
tage of New Jersey nativity. He in
herited money, and he has made
more. He has laid out for himself at
Edgewater a luxurious country
home, where he INDUCES his
sportsmanlike and artistic tastes to
the top of his bent. He is good look
ing, good natured, good humored.
He has a nice family. Socially he
seems to be full one hundred per cent.
or more.
Our correspondent tried to talk on
public questions with him, and he
said,-well what did he say2 He said
he hoped to be elected, and that he
believed in the Republican party.
There you have General Grubbi
Or stay, not yeti The General can
be diplomatic too. His party has con
tributed this year a celebrated con-
undrum to the history of the politics
of the State tough n which in the
tradition of future ages may take its
place beside the riddle of the Sphinx.
Our correspondent, hoping to
find in General Grub a second Gdi-
Jus asked him what the solution was
of the Republican riddle-thatanti(0
liquor plank. The oracle spoke, and
words of wisdom issued forth. 1t
said
1.-THE party has expressed its will
ingness to leave that matter with the
people and will follow whatever course
the people shall decide will be the best
for the eradication of intemperance."
Oh most lame and impotent con-
clusionl Who shall interpret the
interpreter?
But let us contrast with this luxur-
jous ease and political negativism of
the Republican candidate the siren
uous life Of Leon Albeit, always
fighting for the peoples cause in the
halls of legislation, in the
courts, in the councils of
his party. His enjoyments are
not limited to the refined seclusion
Of a park, his greatest pleasure is to

That Platform.

The Republican platform is prolix
and prosy for the most part, and mis-
uses the obvious opportunities of the
convention. y \ y Why there should
have been an attempt to straddle the
temperance question it is impossible
to conceive. The Republicans in 1888,
and again in the Legislature of 1889,
committed themselves to the act of
1883 beyond recalhn Nothing short of
an express surrender would change
the position of the party on that sub
ject, because the record is one of deeds
rather than declarations.
Furthermore, the principles of the
act of 1888 were accepted by the DEM
ocrats in 1889, and SO eminent a dem
ocrat as Judge Knapp, of the Supreme
Court, has recently declared that the
provisions of the new law are not only
equally stringent, but are extended to
cover new phases. The fact that it
may not be enforced does not alter
the principle involved by the accept
ance by the Democratic caucus of
both the high license and local option
devices. In attempting a straddle,
therefore, the Republicans Numbered
in policy, as wellas weakened in faith.
OF course the intention of the plat
form makers was to calm the appre-
tensions OF the German vote of New
ark. In further pursuance Of this
desire the convention specifically
declared that the Essex men might
bolt caucus ON temperance legislation
whenever they desired, the platform
being adopted with the qualification
las the chairman declared) that Essex
would not be bound to any ''particu-
lar form Of temperance legislation"
each ma being free to obey his CON
science and Judgment in that regard,
free from caucus or other dictation.n
This either authorizes boiling by
Essex representatives or it is without
meaning.
The course of the Republicans on
the temperance question does not con
form with the orators declaration
that the party never retreats and
never surrenders, nor is it consistent
with the platforms approval of the
minority's course in the Legislature
of 1889. 1t was cowardly, as some of
our contemporaries have charged.

private property wherever located in
this State.
1t defeated an attempt of the Re-
publican minority to impose a State
tax on the people.
1t passed a reform charter for Jer-
sey City that has lifted that munich
pality out of its embarrassments, re-
organized anew the entire municipal
machinery, placed responsibility IN
competent hands and givent the people
the power to correct abuses.
1t passed a high license law which
is pronounced by leading temperance
men to be the best law ever devised
in this State.
1t restored to the workingman and
the n~aturalized citizen the free exer-
else OF the right OF suffrage of which
they were robbed by the rascally par
tisan laws of 1888.
1t gave to Essex county a republl-
can form of government by abolishing
q county system that allowed two rep
r~esenttaives to Livingston with 1870
population and only one representa-
tive to a Newark ward with ~, 652
population.
1t gave to Newark the means for
a new water supply, a paid fire de-
partment and better police protection.
1t refused to appropriate $780, 600
out of the treasury, at the demand OF
Sewell and South Jersey Republicans,
to pay for improving P~hiladelph1a's
water front and the terminal facilities
of the Pennsylvania Railroad.
1t provided means to meet the
deficit caused by Republican extrava-
gance in 1888, amounting to about
800, 000, without placing a dollar OF
tax on the people.
1t passed the smallest incidental
bill that has ever been known at Tren-
ton.
1t vindicated the dignity and con-
stitutional rights of the Gubernatorlal
office by restoring to it the preroga-
tives, guaranteed by the constitution,
which had been wrested away by the
Republican legislatures in defiance of
the organic law and of the protests OF
all decent men.
1t had framed a ballot reform bill
making careful provision for a secret
ballot, well guarded against corruption
and intimidation and with adequate
penalties, which bill was defeated by
the Republican minority.
1t presented, for the first time in ten
years, a record absolutely free from
all enactments in the interest of rail-
road corporations at the expense of the
people. Not a bill of this character
ever reached the Governor.
These are a few of the things that
the Republican platform makers over
looked. But the people have not

ary women are both modern and aristo-
cratic in their dress. Elaborats toilets
are not a necessity with the modern au-
thoress, but she cannot, on the other
hand, with any success to herself, affect
the eccentric or curious. Our younger
women writers are naturally more dressy.
Maude Howe, Amelie Rives, Margaret
Deland, Sarah Orne Jewett and other
members of the younger school are @s-
thetic in their dress, and frequently the
prettiest and most stylish gowns at a
gathering are worn by them. 1t is, on the
whole, a pleasing indication OF the pro
gress of our time, that because a woman
is a writer is no longer a guarantee OF pc
culiar manners or eccentric embelllsn-

India,s Hoarded Treasures.

1t is difficult to estimate the amount of
gold boarded in India; but it was approx
mated before the Royal Commission on
Bimetallism Mt 100, 600, 900 sterling, which
was the amount imported during the last
fifty years, and is exclusive of the boards
for centuries past. The silver was COM
puted at about one hundred and seventy
millions. This yields for both gold and
silver a sum of SOC, 100000, which repre-
sents nearly one-third of the value of the
total amount of coin (e1, 000, coo, 00O esti-
mated by DIR. Soetbeer to be circuia-
ton in the world. The form which the
boarding takes is that of bullion or coin,
and frequently the metal is made into
ornaments, partly used for the pur-
poses of adornment and partly kept as a
hoard.
AS a rule the native prefers it in the
form of ornaments for his family, because
it is a hoard; and it is alsoSa qualification
to them to possess these ornaments. The
simplest form of jewel or ornament worn
by the natives is the thick gold or silver
wire twisted into bangles or bracelets.
The latter are made by the silversmith,
to whom the poor Hindoo betakes him
self when he has saved a few rupees.
These are soon melted II beaten up into
the necessary article of ornament and
hoard. Silver is also hammered into
brooches and tongues in imitation of
knotted grass and leaves, while armlets,
anklets and such like are freely fabri-
Gated. Solid or hollow gold Jumps in the
form of cubes and o~ctahedrons strung on
red silk appear as another form of stored
wealth

Frank loslio's Popular Monthly
 fov June, 880.

A story of thrilling interst to all classes of readers, and constituting one of the most important contributions to our national history that has ever ap- peared in magazine, Is Colonel Rich ard J. Linton's accouIh of "John Brown and his Men before and after the Raid on Harper's Ferry" in the June num- Der of Frank Leslie's Popular Monthly, just out. The value of this notable paper is enhanced by the illustrations
 which accompany it, including DOT traits of Owen Brown, Richard Realf, and others, together with reproductions
 of the only existing cotemporaneou
 pictures of the scenes at Hsrper's Ferry,
 and Charlestown, where John Brown
 was tried and executed. A dramatic ac-
 count of the great Parnell-Times Com
 mission, by Richard B. Kimball, LL.D.,
 profusely illustrated, is another feature of this number. Amongst other 1illus-
 trated articles may be specially men, toned Noel Ruthven's "Up and Down the Famous Laguensy," A. l.. Raw sons "Copts in Old Cairo, Egypt" w. A. Croffut's "Historic Houses !n Wash ington," and Joel Benton's charming essay on old chimneys and fire-places, which he fancifully calls "A Pictu- rescue Outlaw" Frank Lcslie's ;opu- lar Monthly has steadily increased in merit as it has fiourished in prosperity, and it's readers now enjoy about double the amount of good reading and pic lures furnished by any other monthly magazine.

A letter has been received by gen ileman, resident of Prescott, enquiring about Inc act of the recent legislature in regard to offering en engagement sinking artesian wells. The parties writing are the owners of a complete outfit for the purpose of sinking wells, and want to know more about the in- ducements offered. By sn act of the legislature. a prize of not exceeding 5000 was offered for obtaining the first stream flowing not less than IT, 500 gallons in twenty-fogr hours. The correspondents propose to make an attempt to obtain this prize ii they can obtain inducements to repay them for moving machinery to the territory and other necessary expenses, leaving the prize to those selecting place to begin work. They are vouched for hy promi- nent and we'll known residents, and it is claimed for them that they can strike water if there is any flowing under the ground. This Is first-class opportu- nity for any person who is sure of where water can be obtained to verify his belief. The address of the parties and other particulars can be learned at this office.
