Anna-What is the matter, Marya
Mary-Matter am In trouble enough.
ANAL should think so, you look wor-
ried.
Mary have been trying very hard to
do my sewing, and have my clothing as
pretty and neatly made as Jennie's.
have basted and sewed until / am tired
out.
Anna-I used to be bothered IN the
same way; but have had no trouble since
bought my new machine.
Mary-I have heard some Of my friends,
who have seen your new machine, say
that 1t does much better work than any
others they have ever tried. Why is it Z
Anna-Wsll, in the first place, 1t runs
very light and then, you are not obliged
TO do any basting. made my winter
cloak, putting on the braid beautifully ;
made all Of my winter clothing, and did
the embroidery work without bit OF
trouble, and did not do a stitch of bast-
ing
Mary-what is the name of your ma
chine And has Jennie one like it
Anna--My machine lie the "NEw HIGH
ARM DAvIs." Jennie's is the same she
made all her under-clothing on it; such
nice ruff1ing, shirring and tncking we
never could make on any under-feed ma
chine
Mary wish could trade mine for a
Davis.
Anna-You had better do 30; and
don't have any other kind, for l find
there is no particular difference In the I'M
der-feed machines; one ID as good as an.
other. But with Davis you can do all
kinds of work easily. My machine never
gets out Of order.
Mary--When l bought my machine,
they showed me variety OF nice samples
which, they said were made on the ma
chine, and that could do the same work
but have not been able to do it, and they
do not teach me how.
Anna-I am afraid they deceived you
and that the samples you saw were really
made on Davis machine. That Is the
way the agents Of the old-style under feed
machines do sometimes. You ought to
have asked them to do some of the work,
so you could see how 1t was done.
Mary-I did, but they said they had
not time, and did not have the attach
ments, but would have in few days
aud they said they could do ell the work
that could be done on the Davis; but
know better now, and IL had bought 9
Davis like yours, could have done my
sewing and trimming as nicely as yours
and Jennie's. ! am going to trade for
Davis and pay the difference in price, fol-
am sure can save good deal OF time
besides doing my work satisfactorily.

That veteran Democratic leader, Hon.
Henry s. Little, has been giving very
frank expression of his opinion of the
mischievous character of the last Demo.
cratic legislature. He says among other
things:
"From a Democratic standpoint, /
think it was one of the most undemocratic
legislatures that ever assembled in New
Jersey or any other state. Any one who
reads the laws passed last winter cannot
successfully dispute this assertion.
There will be few intelligent, honest
citizens, who know anything of the course
pursued by the Democratic majority In
that legislature, says the Jersey City
Journal, who will dissent from this opin-
ion of Mr.. Little. II to be recklessly par
tissn, to lay needless and heavy burdens
on the tax payers, to make everything
subordinate to the personal and political
purposes OF grab for every dollar that
could possibly be reached In the public
treasury, to usurp and exercise autocratic
authority, to condone and defend election
frauds and crimes-if these things are un.
democratic, then Mr.. Little's characteriz-
alton Of the last democratic legislature Ia
undoubtedly correct.

MIR. Alexander Grant, one of our old
residents, died at the home of his daugh-
ter, Mrs. ]. Wesley Bray, in this city
early on Monday morning of this week.
Mr.. Grant was Scotchman by birth and
came to this country while young man.
He worked 10 New York city for while
and was also employed as mason on the
Girard College building in Philadelphia
He came 10 this town about fifty years
ago, and with the exception of six or
eight years, has resided here since that
time. Mr.. Grant for many years carried
on the business of master mason and a
numerous buildings in this town were put
up by him, as well as a number OF stone
bridges throughout the county. Later on,
he carried on butchering and other branch
es OF business, and was worth some tbous-
ands of dollars, but reverses in the past
ten years had swept it all away. His fu-
neral takes place to-day at 2 P. M. from
the Baptist Church.

The Abbett-Democ Legislatures Of 1889 and
1891 increased the burden of taxation, state and
municipal, s24s ,O47 year.
The above paragraph is from the
Ldn1bertuille Record. The same figures
are presented In startling large type in a
half dozen other paragraphs in the
Records columns. Ordinarily the Record
is very fair and honorable political jour
nal aud tardy in resorting to dishonest
means to score point. Perhaps in this
instance it simply forgot to state 10 con
nection with the alleged increase OF the
burden of taxation to the tune of $243,
074 that it was made obligatory upon the
Democratic Legislatures of 1889 and 1901
by the extravagant appropriations OF
the preceding Republican Legislatures. =

The Democrat is mistaken--for once.
The increased expenses of S943, O74

some years ago on the occasion of the
celebration in this city of the crossing of
Washington's army in June, 177s, at
Coryell's Ferry (now Laihbertville), an
excellent report of which he made for the
Tribune. The Captain gave Mr.. s. some

boats, which proved very interesting.
Perhaps the Tribune will hear from this
talk at some future time.

not so much concerned about who shall be

hence, as they are about honest govern
ment, just laws, and economy in state,
county, and municipal expenditures.
Messrs. Martin and oallan are the candi-
dates of the same ring that made the out
rageous increase in expenses In the last
legislature. To elect them is to approve
of the extravaganza and to encourage it
for the future. But il retrenchment is
desired, the election of Capt. John Shields
and VIM. B. Niece will emphasize 1t.
They are pledged to vote for the repeal of
the increased salaries, ETC.. voted by the
