INJUSTICE IN PHILADELPHIA.
From the Philadelphia Press.

From the Philadelphia Press.
A man lay down drunk on a cellar door
day before Yesterday with two fine dogs
guarding his alcoholized slumbers. He
woke in a police station yesterday to find
one oil his faithful sentinels lead and the
other a fugitive from the law which had
been violated by the too rigid observance
of the vigil. II, when he woke, that man
did not feel like joining q of his brave
custodians in hgnt-if not the other one
in death-then he is not the sort of man
worth the affection of a mongrel cur, let
alone an Irish setter and an English mas
til.
A fne or imprisonment for drunken
ness, the loss Of the dogs and the pay
ment of a certain sum in liquidation of a
policeman's torn uniform n the abraded
cuticle Of q number of over-inqusitive by
ISLANDERS will probably be the measure of
damage assessed by society on this mans
wr0ugdoing.
Yet a Solomon or a Buddha sitting In
Judgment would undoubtedly decide that
the chief atonement was due, not to soci-
ETY., In the persons OF the policeman q
The ~bystandsrs, but to the outraged in
stincts of the dogs. These animals were
engaged in the performance OF the high
est duty known to their species in all
times and countries. Hundreds OF
human had lnculcated upon count
less canine generations the sacred obliga-
ton OF fidelity TO the object, animate or
inauimate, committed to their care.
Song and story from li%terature's early
twilight of the ancient fabulists TO tue
later feuilletons Of Ouida had united in
the praise of the faithful dog. When
these dogs were confronted with The
emergency which called for the exercise
Of the highest canine attribute they ex-
ercised it, and were rewarded with clubs
and pistol shots.
Yet IL is a martyrdom to ideas of duty.
In which the dogs have .many human
companions Of high renown. 1t is a not
unusual custom Of society to praise g
man for the deed for which she hangs
him. The dog had simply reached one Of
those awkward places IN the way OF the
world where human institutions do not
maintain their parallel with human sem
timent.
Human justice is as yet too crude to
atone for the outrage on the instincts Of
the drunkard's dog, but in the happy
hunting grounds he ought to trot at The
heels Of Fergus Mac Ivor or some other
good Jacobite, whose fidelity to a bad
master made him at once a sacrifice TO
the institutions and a hero to the senti-
ment of society.

GOVERNOR cAMPBLlL CONFIDENT.
He Says the Issue to lie Fought Over IN
the hio Campaign Is the Tariff.

AaO ~ tAaO
the Ohio Campaign Is the Tariff.
Special to the Jersey Citg Neics.
WASHINGTON. July 20, 1s91.-Governor
Campbell Of Ohio, says In an interview
yesterday that he thinks the Ohio cam
pain will be perhaps the hardest fought
on record. The tariff issue will be the
most conspicuous feature of the cam
paign. Nothing could defeat the Demo-
erals. he thinks, except an enormous cor
ruption fund, and even that would fail in
mis- opinion, first, because Ohio has never
been bought and, therefore, probably
never will be, and secondly, because the
Australian system renders nugatory to
a great extent all efforts TO corrupt the
voters.
"The silver question: he said, will be
an issue. but not to such an extent as the
tariff. While the Democrats declared.
after a fashion, for free coinage, yet IL
was upon a very close vote. and the senti-
ment of the party is much divided in this
State IL would perhaps nave been more
of an issue had anyone other than Major
Mckinley heade1 the Republican ticket,
but his nomination forces the tariff issue,
and upon that we mutt stand or fall

HEROIsM REWARDED.
An Engineer Presented With a Purse for
Preventing an Accident.


Special TO the Jerseg City Nevs.
TRENTON, July 30. 1891. Engineer
George Morris, who runs the engine which
drags the second section Of the million
aires express from Philadelphia to Long
Branch. was made a hero yesterday.
When the train pulled into the Trenton
Station, he was taken from his engine by
a group of commuters and presented with
u purse of $50.
This was an expression of appreciation
for his heroic conduct last Saturday after
noon, when he, by coolness and tact,
averted an accident. When the train ar
rived at a point between Tennent and
Freehold, he saw a local passenger train
coming toward him. This train should
rave waited at Freehold until the fast ex-
press passed. He reversed the engine. ap-
piled the brakes. and told the firemen TO
Jump, which he did. Engineer Morris
then took hold of the throttle and
awaited results. His engine was checked
within about seventy-ive feet OF the local
train. The passengers rushed forward to
learn the cause of the excitement and
saw how narrowly they had escaped an
accident.
During Sunday and Monday the com
muters raised the purse. which was pre-
sented by DR.. II. NJ. Weeks of Trenton.
Engineer Morris lives at Manasquan.

Fake Attacks ON this Jersey City
Democracy.

Democracy,
In the course OF a very scurrilous
and absurdly erroneous attack on the
Jersey City Democracy published in
the New York Sunday Democrat of the
Goth, this passage oceurs:-
An the papers published in this city Jersey
Cityl and county are called official papers and
some that are never published draw their pay
from the city, county and State. l have in my
possession papers that are official with the edi-
tor ais, advertisements. type and every
papers placed at their heads, and all gel
paid for the city. county and state printing, and
viii place them In your possession at any time
that any one doubts my statement. Besides /
have n nv possession copies OF the New York
papers that exposed the frauds that our officials
were perpetratihg on Us previous 10 the report
era wLo wrote them. etc, were placed In city,
county aud stat positions; and l know each re-
porter personally, and can nsnae the position
he holds and the salary he receives for his ser
vices
We presume the allusion in this is
to the issue of the Argus from the
presses of THE JERSEY CRY NEWS
for a few weeks after the fire in Mr..
w. Farrier's building. We had sup
posed the most casual reader of news
papers was well aware that weeks be-
fore the fire the Argus had ceased to
be an official paper. 1t is almost
unnecessary to fatty contradict the
inference which the writer endeavors
to create that the Argus as we'll as the
NEWS was paid by the city for official
advertising. For the benefit of the
stupid, it may be said, however, that
while it was printed in this Office. and
since then. if indeed it is still printed
at all, and for many weeks before that
time, the Argus did moi earn or receive
one dollar OF public money from any
source or oman y pretenee.
The cowardly SANDER on the report
ers for the New York newspapers,
working in this city is almost equally
untrue. Only two of them hold pub
lie offices and these they have held fo'
years. The insinuation that any
Newspaper man in this city has been
stopped in the performances of his
duty by the gift of a pub lie Office i
simply a gratuitous lie.

A kind of editorial annex will be
found on our leading page today In the
discussion of the tax levy. We place
the article in our news columns be-
cause it is a matter of news rather than
Of editorial opinion. At the same time
we attach to it a certain editorial
character, because the statements and
explanations made are the statements
and explanations OF THE NEWS. THE
NEWS is alone responsible for them.
The facts are stated on its authority
and the criticisms, where any are in
dulged in, are its criticisms.
The article will be supplemented
daily by others until the subject is
exhausted. No apology, we believe,
is necessary for the devotion OF so
much a and attention to this sub
ject. Apart from its intrinsic import
ance, the sensational and malicious
attacks of the New York fake papers
call for a fair and impartial exposition
OF the whole subject in the interest Of
justice and of the city's credit
This impartial exposition we have
endeavored TO furnish to the public.
No extremity OF praise or blame will
be found in the article. no party con-
siderations will be allowed to affect
them. Ordinary common ems and
the law will be the standards by
which every act will be judged.
