Board of Officers of the Fourth Regiment

resolution will be sent to the Board by
Adjutant Gerardin.

The Legislatiye session.

We present to our readers this morn
ing interviews with Senator Mcdonald
and Assemblymen Heppenheimer,
Marsh and Voorhees, on the prospects
of the approaching legislative session.
These four gentlemen will occupy
prominent positions in their respec-
tive Houses Senator McDonald's
eloquence, and knowledge and ex-
perience of public affairs will render
him one of the most important figures
in the Upper House. OF the other
three, Colonel Heppenheimer will be
the Speaker of the Assembly, and
Messrs. Marsh and Voorhees, will be
leaders of their respective parties on
the floor 1t follows that they will
have commanding influence in guild
ing legislation, and therefore their
views as to the course which it will
take are especially valuable and in
teresting at this time.
They all agree upon several points.
First, the session will be short one !;
second, it will be fruitful of good re-
suits; third, there will be no legislation
of the purely partisan kind. A ballot
reform law will certainly be passed,
and it will be as radical as the best
ascertained experience of other states
will justify. The constitutional amend
ment removing the restriction on
legislation for special localities will be
favorably voted on, both parties being
in favor of it.
On the taxation question the Re-
publican leader. differs boldly and
broadly from his political opponents.
He sees no reason why a direct taR
should not be levied throughout the
State. The Democratic leaders all
agree that the resources of revenue
raising have not been thoroughly
worked as yet, and consequently it
would be unjust to the citizens to lay
the burden upon them.
Many matters of secondary import
ance, though still of very great in
terest, are touched upon in the inter
views. 1t is PLAIN that all four men
have made conscientious study of
their duty and of the public needs.
They are not going to Trenton to
make party capital. They are going
to do the best they can for the peo
pie.
We cordially give this praise to Mr.
Voorhees, as we'll as to the Democratic
spokesman. We do not agree with
him on many points; but we believe
him to be honorable and capable. 1t
will be interesting to study the rela-
tive strength of himself and of his
party. Last year his party was
stronger than he, and under the
caucus whip he was forced to support
schemes against which all his ideas of
justice and good policy revolted. His
forebodings have been justified by the
crushing rebuke to his party in the
recent election. Perhaps he may
gather strength from that fact, and so
be able to keep his Followers from
that disgraceful subserviency to cor
porate interests which has been the
damnation of the Republican party in
this State.
We commend these interviews to all
our readers, They are valuable on
account of the authority with which
they are uttered, and they are inter
esting because the speakers talk their
minds out freely.

The CITY Gains by the Change.

The redesignation of the newspa-
pers to publish official notices for the
city is matter of Importance mainly
as showing the determination of the
present Board of Finance to secure
the best possible service for the citi-
zens. The changes made have long
since been discounted by public ex-
pectancy, and indeed the most i'm
portant of them was merely the
formal recognition of the fact, long
since established in the general mind,
that THE JERSEY CITY NEWS takes
leading rank as a medium of informa-
ton in this community.
The papers designated are THE
JERSEY CITY NEWS, the Egeqlaqlg
Journal, the Jersey City Herald, and
the Jersey City Stats Zeitatng. The
first named takes the place once occu-
pied by the argus as the representa-
tive Democratic paper; the Journal
represents the Republican element,
thus complying with the main
provision of the law The Her
aid is appointed by virtue of
its publication within the old limits of
Hudson City, and the Staats-Zeatung,
in compliance with the act of the last
Legislature, which authorized the
designation of a paper published in
German.
The new arrangement insures due
publicity for the City's business.
Every man, woman and child in the
community is reached by the four
papers named, and the municipality
secures the highest possible adj
vantages in very economical way.
THE JERSEY CITY News already en-
joyed the patronage of the citizens in
their individual capacities. 1t is
happy to become their servant col
lectively, and it will make the same
strenuous efforts to do justice to the
city that it has toits private custom
ers.

: Cashier Silcott-A lNoraI Lesson.
Cashier Silcott, who is not in Wash
ington just now, has taught the young
men of the country valuable moral
lesson, or at least presented one which
they may cake if they will. He ran
away with somebody's money; that's
old enough. He took an unprincipled
woman with him; that's another
chestnut. After he was gone it was
discovered that he had bet on horse
races and galnbled in stocks; and
nothing could be more ordinary. But
it was also discovered that he had won
on races and stocks; now that's or
iginal, and therein is the lesson. When
a man puts his hands into another
mans pocket to get money for specu-
lation he says to himself:-'If l win
I'll return to the path of rectitude.
If lose, that's my hard luck, and
man can't be blamed much for his
luck But the unique Silcott case
shows that it is the practice of taking
other peoples money in an attempt to
get something for nothing, which
leads to disgrace and Canada. Win
ming can't save a man from the bad
moral effects of gambling, a vice
which is almost always complicated
with peculation. Do not feel that
you're to be saved, young man, even
if the one chance in thousand makes
you a winner with your employers
money. You may have to nun away,
after all, as Silcott did, or more prob
ably find that you can't run away
when you'd like to very much.
EMPEROR Dom PEDRO bears him
self with his accustomed dignity and
grace, so the cable says; but the En-
press is said to be "a bad loser 1t is
pleasant to observe in the cable, too,
that the thrifty monarch has saved
enough out of his wages to afford to
see the opera, and even to take a box.
This shows that a royal laborer should
always be prepared to be discharged
without notice.

Postal Changes Affecting tho Augusta
Office

With the change of time on the Maine
Central which went INTO effect yests rday,
many changes in the handling of the mails
to and from this Office have also been ins,i-
tuted All mail collected in Boston, mail

previous and all western mail received be-
tween the hours Of aud s in the morning IN
forwarded in n closed pouch 10 Augusta,

mail from Portland is also received by this
train, thus giving the people Of Augusta
nearly three fourths Of all the mail which
would c,me to this city during the day eI
cept the local mails between Boston and
Augusta, At n scasonable hour. This is the
earliest mail that has ever been received
from Boston and beyond since the founda-
ton Of our city and ought to be appreciated
by the citizens.
Parties mailing letters by one o'clock AT

cred in Bangor ., $50 and at Bar li4rhor al
$50 the same evening, the quickest mail
