A West Fork Floater.
On Tuesday of this week u colored
woman named Sophia Hart discoy-
cred the dead body of Il man floating
in the West Fork creek. near Barker's
mill. II was in lot of drift wood
and hung by the twig of bush. The
woman notified Esq T. NJ. Barker,
who took the body from the water
and sumnoning jury held an in
quest over the corpse. Decomposition
was 30 far advanced that the jury was
unable to make any positive identiii-
cation. The hair had all sloughed
from the head and the remaining flesh
was perfectly black. The jury, how
ever, concluded from all indications
that the find was the body of white
man. The skull OF the forehead was
crushed in and mashed as IL struck by
a powerful blow, and the front teeth
were all missing. The man had on a
good pair Of striped cashmere pants.
patched coat and a good pair of
button shoes, and ia one pocket was
barlow knife and an eight penny nail.
Esq. Barker was seen by KEN
TucKIAN representative Wednesday.
His idea is that the man was muir
dered, though the jury, of course,
could not decide without some evil
dence. As TO one is missing from
that section OF the county, il is proba-
BILE that the man was stranger. He
may have been murdered and put into
the water, or il is possible that he
may have been killed by some acci-
dent in crossing the creek at some
point above. The indications, how
ever, point to the first theory as the
correct one. The body was buried
near where it was found.

Certain Democratic papers are taking
great satisfaction to themselves because
Assistant Postmaster General Clarkson,
In an address has called attention to the
fact that there appears to be a larger cir
culation of Democratic dailics than of Re-
publican, and that these papers are all
advocates Of free trade doctrines. One
might suppose Srom this that the intelli-
gence Of the country was with the Demo-
cracy, but this is certainly not the case in
the North, at least. Nine out of ten of
those who cannot read, vote the Demo-
cratic ticket. Nine out of ten OF the sa-
loon and dive keepers, vote the Demo-
cratic ticket. Nine out of ten of the worst
element OF the cities-the rough-scuffs and
shoulder-hitters vote the Democratic tick
ct. The great mass OF the ignorant for
eign population vote the Democratic tick
ct, naturalized or not. We do not say
these things to insult our Democratic
friends, but because they undeniably are
facts. or course there are great many
honorable, patriotic, intelligent and learned
Democrats. But we are trying to account
for the Democratic daily newspaper cir
culation being In excess of that OF the Re-
publican. With all these drawbacks
above named II would seem that this
ought not to be the case. 1t is undoubted
ly true, however, IL one counts as Demo-
cratic the mugwump Republican sheets,
which are the best allies of the Democrats,
such as the Neso York Times, Mem York
Evening Post, Philadelphia Telegram,
Springfield Republican, etc. And the
reason simply and plainly is this: Demo-
Gratis with rare exceptions, stick to their
own party papers, even though they are
not as good as their Republican oontem-
poraries. But Republicans are SO exceed
ingly ''liberal" that they take Democratic
sheets OF independent" sheets that are
really Democratic, In preference to their
own. In this city a certain free trade
Democratic daily has circulation of from
two to three hundred-more than one half
Of which is among Republicans, while the
truth is that two Republican dailies are
published In the same city as that referred
to, which are ADLER papers and can be got
at the same price. Why they hang on to
the Democratic sheet, which daily attacks
their principles in an offensive way, no
man can tell. Possibly they have more
intelligence but less common sense than
their Democratic friends.
II there is any reason for the existence
of the Republican party there is also a rea-
son for the support of Republican papers
by Republicans.

FRUITS OF REPUBLICAN CONTROL


The fruits OF Republican control of the
National Government now In sight give
high promise OF the future material and
political welfare OF the country.
The enactment into law of the Admin
istrative Customs bill will relieve our
home industries of the most onerous and
annoying incubus that has rested on them
for years. This act will make certain and
fixed, beyond all question, the amount of
the duty on imports, and insure its full
collection. The protective feature of our
tariff system has been greatly impaired
by variety OF tricks and evasions that
this act is calculated to put an end to.
Our potters have probably suffered more
from these undervaluations and other
dishonest expedients for evading the duty
than any other industry In America.
They will derive correspondingly large
advantages from the enactment of law
that will compel the honest collection Of
the duty on crockery. This one fruit of
Republican control will be worth great
deal to this city, add materially to its
prosperity, and give vigor to its boom.
The enactment of the Mckinley Tariff
bill will place this country upon a solid
basis of business prosperity that will en-
dure so long as Republican control lasts.
There never was any act passed by Con-
gress that was more important to the
national prosperity than this. Not be-
cause II makes any radical, revolutionary
changes In our tariff system. Not be-
cause 1t largely increases the duties on
imports. Not because the country is on
the eve of financial disturbance and
commercial prostration. The one is not
true, and the other is not threatened.
Bot It Is OF this supreme Importance
because OF the vast magnitude OF the
interests involved. The products of
American manufactures in 1880 amounted
to Eve aud half billions Of dollars.
They are now at least fifty per cent. more.
The production of very laagc proportion
OF this stupendous quantity OF wealth
depends upon the protective policy. 1t
IL q matter of incalculable importance,
therefore, whether this policy, applied to
interests of such mag nitude, is weak,
loose and defective, or strong, compact
and perfect; is enforced with slipshod
negligence, or with energy and efficiency;
ID Interpreted and administered in the in
terest OF the importer, or for the pro-
lection OF the American producer. A
tariff bill that strengthen the whole pro-
tective system, with but moderate in
crease OF duties, Is more important to q
nation of sixty millions Of people, with an
aggregate wealth of sixty billions of
dollars, than was change from purely

New Jerseys seven Representatives In
Congress were elected by 229, 1878 votes.
Georgia's ten Representatives were elected
by 81, 475 votes. That startling fact shows
why a national election law is demanded.
There are seventeen members from the
South sitting in this Congress who had
practically no opposition whatever. They
simply "went through the motions" Of
an election. The shotgun has effectually
suppressed the Republican party in those
districts. 0regons one Representative
in Congress was elected by 81, 956 votes,
or more than double the number repre-
scented by Georgia's entire delegation of
ten members. These illustrations and
comparisons could be multiplied in quite
as startling form from other Southern
States.
The national law-making power is
vitiated by this Southern delegation,
chosen, not by a fair and honest exercise
of the constitutional right OF suffrage, but
by violence and fraud. 1t posons the
very fountain and source OF the national
government. With a Democratic ma.
jority in Congress, and the party con-
trolled, as it is always controlled, by the
Southern wing, national laws would be
enacted and great national policies en-
forced by men who represent the shotguns
and the tissue ballots, by Representatives
of violated constitution, by the avowed
enemies of the fundamental principles of
our government. 1t isnot at all among the
improbabilities of the future that these
members OF Congress, ten OF whom repre-
sent fewer votes than any one Of ten
Representatives from Michigan, may
force upon this country the ruinous
policy of free trade, and thus break down
the foundations Of Northern prosperity.
1t is not only the right, but the bouuden
duty of the nation to protect itself
against this iniquity and danger. 1t is a
great injustice and serious menancc 10
the North that the South should thus be
permitted to play against US for national
control with loaded dice. II this Con
gress does not pass national election
law that will put an end to these wrongs
1t will fall OF Its highest duty.

CLARK PLERsoN, Editor.
About the sharpest criticism that ",

About the sharpest criticism that we
have yet seen on the New Jersey LunatiC
Asylum management is that from the BoS
ton Medical and Surgical Journal. AT
ter referring to the Legislative report
which said that no autopsies of the pa.
tients ought to be allowed that t'the re-
quirements of science do not justify mu-
citations after DEATH" and "when dead,
respect their remains and lay them away
tenderly and reverently," the Journal
says:
That the duty of the State to its wards
afflicted with mental or any other form of
illness is to be discharged by suppressing
all intelligent medical care, with view
simply 10 laying their remains ''reverent-
ly and tenderly away" is indeed novel
and astonishing claim.
Perhaps the satisfaction OF the New
Jersey committee with the mortuary aim
of their institution receives additional clu-
cidation from paper by DR.. II. G. Weth-
GRILL, of the State Charities Aid Society,
who shows that there is no fire depart
ment whatever in the asylum, and that
the water-closets have no traps.
That the New Jersey Legislature finds
some return for its kindness towards the
"unfortunate beings" who, deprived of
sewer-traps when living, are giving such
tender sepulture, is shown by the fact
that the asylum made in the last two years,
according to the official report, over and
shove all its expenses, profit of $780,
1868, from charges by the State to the
counties, II this fire-exposed Asylum
should share the recent fate of those at
Montreal and Utica, the mntilation OF the
bodies of the "unfortunate beings" might
be almost as terrible as that ofan autopsy.

The Postal Telegraph bill now under
consideration by the House COMMITTEE on
Post Offices and Post Roads, provides thai
a limited post and telegraph service be es-
tablished as part OF the Post Office De-
partment, for the deposit, transmission
and delivery of posal kilograms through
the medium of the post Office service. All
post offices at incorporated cities, villages
and boroughs where the free delivery now
exists, and the offices of certain telegraph
companies shall be postal telegraph sta
tions, and in addition the Postmaster Gen
eral may from time to time designate
other post offices and telegraph Offices
thereat as postal telegraph stations. The
rates are about one half those now charged
by the existing telegraph companies.

revenue to o protective tariff three de-
cades ago. The vast material interests
of this great country are so intimately and
| so inextricably interviewer with our
manufacturing Industries, that whatever
affects these, for veal OF woe, Is felt by
all the rest. When these are depressed,
general prostration ensues The McKin-
ley tariff bill will undoubtedly place our
protected manufacturers upon sound
and solid foundation. The whole country
will feel the effect, and will enter upon a
career of substantial prosperity.
The passage Of the Silver bill is another
fruit Of Republican rule upon which the
country may congratulate itself. This
wise measure completes and perfects the
Republican economic system. 1t will
add materially to the volume of currency,
stimulate the production Of this precious
metal, and pour vivifying stream into
oil the currents OF industry and trade.
The enactment of National Election
law, that will purify the source of national
power of the foulness, frauds and vio-
lence that now so badly faint it, will be
another fruit of Republican control, more
important TO our political than these
others to our material salvation. Thought
full and patriotic men are thoroughly sick
of the spectacle presented at every
national contest, at the hollow mockery
of elections that take place in the South
ern States. They are sick OF seeing
scores of men sent to Congress, by an
oligarchy founded in fraud and force, to
offset as many honestly chosen represent
tatives from other parts of the country.
They demand that the constitution shall
be impartially and honestly enforced in
national elections, North and South, East
and West.
II the present Republican Congress
shall pass these great acts, it may go
home with plumes waving triGmphantly
in its hats, to the loud approving plaudits
of all intelligent and patriotic citizens.
We believe that it will.--Stdte Gazette.

In the course of the trial OF Dean, the
Democratic repeater, recently convicted
