The arrival of young son of Ba-
ron Rothschild was heralded
through the country few days ago,
and people at once began to wonder
what he wanted over here. At last
it has been suggested seriously that
he is here as the representative of a
foreign syndicate to get control of
the worlds fair, with view to max
ing a big speculation on gate fees.

Boston HERALD: Here is the Ill
innate intent of Speaker Reed and
his following. 1t is to get every ex-
IRENE measure of their party possible
through the present congress. The
rules of a century have been over
ridden to increase their majority on
the one hand, and to stiAe the power
of the minority on the other. This
accomplished, and there is an
intrenchment in the United States
senate which will hold republican
acts, through the power of that az
istocratic section of the government,
against every effort of the people to
make their will operative. This is
the republican programme.

The Forum for March has an

The Forum for March has an
interesting article from the pen of
Prof. A. B. Hart on the gambling ele-
ment in politics. The professor says:
" Nevertheless three fourths of the
gambling element in politics-chance,
clark horses stuffed ballot-boxes,
bosses and political deals-would
disappear if all appointments were
made for merit; and a great many
people enjoy the gambling element.
The unfortunate connection between
local and national parties, so clearly
pointed out by Mr.. Bryce, makes
federal offices seem an essential part
of the stakes in state and municipal
contests. In a word, not only
parties and politicians, but a great
number of the people like the fun of
the present spoils system"

That Hoyt's ga Texas Steer,' gained
a popular foothold in this city last season
was fully attested by the large audience
that welcomed It's return to the Academy
last night. 1t is an amusing yet instruct
i've burlesque on certain phrazes of Amer
lean poliLlcs. A number of prominent
Jersey City politicians were present last
night; but not for points-bless you, no.
Mr.. Hoyt found but little to improve in
the play after the first seasons expert
ence, and its representation last night
was identical with that of last season in
this city.
With one or two minor exceptions the
cas- is also the same. Mr.. Tim Murphy

gressman, displays the traits of a true
actor, and bids fair to place that charac-
ter on the pedestal with Florence's Col.

not have been thought worth the
while. The only person whose
strength and prominence made him
an object of attack was Mr.. Timken.
The ex-Mayor of Hoboken is making
a great canvass among the Germans,
and they were all pretty certain to fol
low him to the polls. The chief effect
of robbing him of his candidacy will
be the Acknowledgement of this army
of German followers, so far as their
favorite candidate is concerned, and
the Germans may insist upon believ-
ing that the object of this elaborate
array of protests was only to bar them
from exposing their preference at the
polls.
We have no idea that the protests
were intended as a thrust at the Ger
mans; but if the Germans want to
think that it was, there is unfortun-
ately too much color o~f..reason for the
belief in the aspect of the Ring ticket.
Whether the protests are intended
as a deliberate drive at the Germans
or not, they are the Rings
confession that MI. Thinker
promises to be a very dangerous
antagonist to the Rings nominee
for Sheriff; and that McPhillips' sue
cess depends largely, if not entirely,
upon the exclusion of Mr.. Thinker
from the polls. 1t is another of the
evidences of fright which the Joker
Boss has betrayed from time to time.
1t may prove a boomerang of the
largest proportion. Suppose that Mr..
Timken's adherents were to repay
the affront the Ring has put upon
them by focking to Wanser and deal
ing McPhillips two blows for every
n they could have dealt him if they
had been permitted to vote for Tim
ken.
The sting will not be drawn from
this fresh outrage of the Ring upon
the popular suffrage by the interfer-
ence of the courts in Mr.. Timken's
behalf Judge Knapp may say that
Mr.. Thinker can have official tickets;
If he does, he will but serve to
V the Ring managers with the
added infamy Of having outraged
law, as well as equity, in their at
tempt to prevent a large body of
qualified voters from expressing their
preferences by their ballots.
We rather think the firm of Davis,
O'Mara, Cleveland, Trotter, Hogen-
camp, Benson s. Co. have made a
large sized political blunder.

A Blunder and a Crime.

If the movement made yesterday
by the Ring against the Jeffersonian
ticket brings the race question into
into prominence in the present cam
paign, the Ringsters will have no one
else than themselves to blame.
The injection of race prejudices is
only less to be deplored than the in
lection of religious controversies into
politics; and no citizen with the right
idea OF the p~roprieties, can look with
unconcern upon any circumstance
which tends to bring either into a
political campaign.
But VIZ fear that the Germans of
Hudson county will insist upon re-
garding the protests fled against the
issue of tickets to the Jeffersonian
candidates as designed only to keep
them from the polls. Most of the AS
sembly nominations will not be
affected by these protests because the
nominees have unassaiIable Re-
publican nominations. The force of
the movement will reach only the
Jeffersonian county ticket. Further,
it practically affects only n name
thereon. Richard J. Allen, the nomi-
nee on that ticket for Con-
gress has a good many friends;
but no one has ever had any serious
idea that his candidacy would imperil
lNlr MeDonald's chances for Congress.

Carlyle's Advice About Writing.

Carlyle's opinions concerning the writ
ing of novels by women may be gathered
from this letter addressed to q girl who
sought his literary advice.-"A young
lady's chief duty and outlook is not to
write novels Especially not while she Is
Ignorant of the world, and not even
when perhaps she knows it too well), but
by and by to be queen of a household, and
to manage it q%ueeniike and ~womanlike.
Let her turn her whole faculty and indus
try in chat direction; shove her own novel
we'll aside for a good while or forever,
and be shy ever of reading novels.
IF she do read let it be good and wise
books (more and more exclusively those).
which not one in ten Thousand OF the kind
called novels now ISL
The young writer, dismayed by this
counsel, wrote again to the Scotchman.
and promised to shove her novel well
aside" Thereupon Carlyle seems to
have relented a little, for he penned
another epistle, IN which, amidst much
kind advice, occurs the significant pas
sage.
II do not forbid you literature, If there
absolutely be no other aim. But in tnat
case first prepare for it; read, study, re-
