Blaine and Cameron.

A Pennsylvania Republican paper
says that Blaine is no more the choice
of the party in that State now than
he was when Hayes or Garfield was
nominated, and that Cameron is not
honestly supporting Blaine now. No
one who has watched Republican
politics will have any difficulty in be-
lieving this story.
The leaders of the G. o. p. have
been as famous for their treachery to
each other as the party has been for
its false pretences. And more than
that need not be said.

mr.. MILLS BUSY.


Roger @. Mills is about the most in
dustrious statesman on the stump now
adays. During the present summer, in
stead Of taking a vacation, he has made
over a hundred speeches IN the West,
going wherever he is invited to preach
the gospel of tariff reform. Moreover,
they say he does not charge for his SER
vices. His enthusiasm keeps him IN the
move and compeusates him, and, in fact,
he wouldn't object to be a Speaker all
through the next Congress.

PAIN AND LIBERTY.
B~astrado's jaw Proved Too Much for
Him at Least

Bastrado's jaw Proved Too Much for
Him ut Least
Nelson Bastrado, who was assaulted by
Edward Whelan. left the City Hospital
on Friday. Bastrado is suffering with a
compound fracture or the jaw. DIR. Nc
Gill set the broken jaw, and because 1t
panied a little Bastrado yanked the
splints off and demanded his clothes, in
forming Warden Osborne that he 0
not remain in the hospital.
The mans injuries are OF a serious nat
ure, aud he was warned to remain where
he was. He refused to do so, and was
finally given his clothes aud allowed TO
depart. Yesterday he returned and
asked to be treated. He refused to
remain in the hospital, however. and
Warden Osborne refused to attend him
in consequence. This morning Bastrado
was again admitted TO the hospital. He
was Informed by DIR. Buffet that unless
he did remain he would probably lose his
life. He prefers pain TO death, and will
now get the treatment required.
His assailant is still as liberty.

| prospect Of its being well spent. We
think as il stands now a good deal OF
IL will go very injudiciously. We
have YER confidence in the economy
and good Judgment of the Financiers,
and we think the Street and Water
Board has an undue tendency to
liberal expenditures
But what is the use OF wishing. The
law appear to favor the Street and
Water Board, and it is useless to COM
plain. The charter set the excise
money aside for street repairs. and 1t
has not been repealed. The repeal
ing clause in Chaper 226 of the laws
OF this year cannot well be understood
as repeating it. 1t only repeats laws
which are in conflict with II
principal clause Of the act
Now that principal clause simply
makes it lawful for the Finance
Board to make a certain appro-
priation, and the only laws that could
be regarded as conflicting laws would
be such as would operate to make
that appropriation unlawful. But
as the Charter appropriation and that
appropriation are exactly similar it
cannot be said that one tends to
make the other unlawful. There is.
therefore. no legal conflict and no re-
peal of the Charter provision. Fortu-
nately next year, the appropriation
will fall under the control of the
Board of Finance.

Further Evidence as TO the Water
Supply.


A special dispatch to THE NEWS,
published elsewhere, tells an interest
ing story about the condition OF the
Passaic River at Paterson. The water
is so low that the stream can be forded,
while a sickening odor at all times
permeates the atmosphere. Anyone
who has aver smelled river ooz as it
testers under a hot sun will readily
recall the perfume. C~oleridge's seven
stinks Of Cologne" would have been
wiped out by it. Added to this is the
information that the Falls have dried
up and that most of the water passing
the city runs from the sewers, and is
consequently impregnated with filth,
to be further accumulated by the sew
age turned into the stream a little
further down by the city OF Passaic.
All this makes pleasant reading for
the people OF Jersey City, the intake
to whose water works is located but a
short distance below Passaic city.
While THE NEWS was willing to be-
lieve, as it said yesterday, that the
condition Of the pipes was in part re-
sponsible for the filthy condition OF
the water our people are asked to
drink, the information that now
comes from Paterson puts a different
complexion on the matter.
1t does not seem that water OBJ
tanned from such a source as THE
NEWS correspondent describes can
possibly receive further contamina-
ton. ever though it were conveyed
to consumers through an open ditch.

WHERE PROTECTION DIDN'T WORK.
From the Salem Sunbeam.

The Tariff bRrons are getting tired Of
being bled every year. 1t is said that when
Major Mckinley went to Plttsburg to
raise funds for his fight in Ohio, one
baron asked:-'How often are we going
to be called on to pay for your d-n bill
anyhow We put up in 1888; we put M
again last year and l should think that
would be enough. 1t is unreasonable to
expect us to pay the expenses of the Re
publican party for an eternity"

EIkins on Pattison.

Mr.. Stephen B. Elkins comes out
this morning with a boom for Gov
ernor Pattison of Pennsylvania for
the Democratic nomination for Presi-
dent. 1t is real kind of Steve to in
terest himself in the Democracy, now
that his own party will no longer let
him NEEDLE with its affairs. After the
disastrous Blaine campaign in 1884, it
was said of him that he did not dis
play executive ability enough TO run
a tramp lodging house on the Bowery,
and he has been on the dead coldlout-
side ever since the astute gentlemen
of the Quay-Dudley-C larkson stripe
assumed the conduct of Republican
affairs
1t is funny to see him looming up
now as a sort of Democratic advisory
committee, and N may be pardoned
for feeling some curiosity as to just
what he is up to. Does he really want
to see Governor Pattison nominated,
or does he want to kill him off, be-
lieving that praise from Sir Elkins is
sufficient to kill any candidate? Or
II he really does want him nominated,
why does he? Is it because he be-
lieves he would be elected, or because
he believes he could not be elected?
After the severe course of discipline
his party has subjected him to, Mr..
Elkins may readily be supposed to de-
sire a sound thrashing for it. He may
really desire to see Governor Pattison
nominated. Pattison has defeated
the forces of Senator Quay in Penn
sylvania twice, and would probably
do so again. This would doubtless be
sweet to Mr.. Elkins.
But, however interesting the specu-
lation may be, it is unfortunately
futile. The last thing Mr.. Elkins
would think of telling the public
would be his true mind, and If he did
tell it, nobody would believe him. So
the uncertainty will remain to the
end of time. 1t will be a very safe
plan, however, to view everything he
says or does with suspicion. Cover
nor Pattison may well look askance
at his new advocate, and before he
starts to ride TO the White House on
the boom thus set in motion, he had
best apply to it and his own case

The stage manager of n Of u
large theatres. who stood on Washing
ton street yesterday morning, said: Il
don't know that I'm in favor OF woman
suffrage, but | do know that in the
theatrical profession women are much
easier to teach, much quicker to grasp,
a stage idea, remember it longer, and
do it better than men. This Is the re-
suit of my observance extending over
a period of over a quarter of a CEN
fury. | would rather train ten
women than one man. II they are
competent you a rely upon them
every time. On first nights the men
in the cast give me the most anxiety.
By the way, did you ever see a woman
break down at a first performance? l
never did, and I've seen hundreds OF
male wrecks. You can call it v
force or anything you like, but a
woman possesses something which
makes her victorious in a situation
where nine out OF ten men would fail.
You may call her the weaker sex, but
she is stronger on the stage than
men boston Globe.

THE O'Neills started out this morn
ing under fair skies and suspicious
circumstances. The NEWS wishes
them a continuance OF both until
their return-and unless the O'Neill
horseshoe in some way gets turned
upside down, the wish is likely
to be gratifed. As all the poll
ticians have gone along. it is possible
that some surprises may be c%oncoeted
during the trip. Picnics and politics
somehow seem to go together in
Hudson county-probably because
our politicians are a jolly
lot and have a peculiar faculty
for combining business with pleasure.
Congressman McDonald's nomination,
it will be remembered, was the imme-
diate outcome OF the reunion last
year.
And perhaps Bob Hudspeth may
come back this evening with the in
dorsement of the O'Neills for the State
Senate. If he does the odds will be
largely in his favor.

ABSOLUTELY PURE

experienced person, n young girl
may be taught to swim in a much
shorter time than by practicing in
shallow streams, says a good authority
in the August Ladies' Home Jou11ld :
A rope can be fastened around her
breast in such a manner that 1t will
neither tighten nor unloose, and II
courageous enough she can, thus pre-
pared, plunge in head first. The
teacher will show her the proper way
to use her arms, and, finding herself
protected by the rope, she will feel
more faith in the exertion made. The
aid of the hand is, however,
far better than this, as it can be
relinquished insensibly. The best
method of teaching on this plan is for a
good swimmer to carry the learner in
the arms into the water until breast
high, laying her nearly fiat upon IL,
and supporting her by placing n
hand under the chest, at the AIN
time giving instruction as to the
proper motion of hands, arms and
feet. Is a few days the hand may be
gradually withdrawn, and the girl
swimmer able to do without 1t. There
are ever so many ''don'ts" about SWIM
ming. Unlike Punch's, they begin af-
ter the act is signed, sealed and de-
livered, and you are a fair swimmer.
The most important piece OF negative
advice is, Don't ever lose your pres
ence of nina. With that you are
mistress of the situation, and other
things not Overwhelmingly against
you, a reach lane again.

WE are convinced the Philadelphia
Railway authorities will give no sup
port to their employees in respect to
their outrageous treatment of the
Fire Department yesterday. They
have too much to lose by such a
course. They have had to deal with
confiagrations in their buildings here
and elsewhere, and were only too
glad to have the help ofthe local de-
partments. Besides, they are not
likely to encourage wilful lawlessness
among their people.
