We believs that . majority Of the good
people Of this state agree In the fact that the
asmosracy Of New Jersey deserve good
beating this year ofgracs 1891, in the fall
shsrsof. Prom being our servants as in
ths start they have become our matters,
and very hard and tyranaical masters too.
Look NJ their record the past year Or two
whole districts Of country changed in its
boundaries with Its legal, social and busi-
mesa status disturbed simply to insure a
party dominating influence. Legislation
in the main at the behest and in the in-
tersst Of the vicious and deprayed class
OF our people, making it harder for the citi-
zeus to do right and easier to do wrong.
Smirched aud smeared aud tainted all
over with the foul emanation of the rum
party, whose servants they are, the pity is
that the whole party (shs rum part of it,
Uas.not Set off TO Gloucester and herded
with Billy Thompson, or colonized in the
brewery OF New Jersey, Hudson County.
Whas are you going to do about its Alb,
that's the rub. The democrats say they
have 30 distrieted the state that the people
can't do any thing. That's what your
former servants but now masters say.
Meanwhile the people are thinking, and
that's where the danger to the rum crowd
comes in--when the people think tyrants
may we'll tremble. We hope and pray, as
good people all over the state have hoped
and prayed in tho past, that the hour of
our delivsrance may be near at hand.

the prInker's Dictionary.

LlCK-HER.
The name liquor as applied to all sorts
of beverages, is especially appropriate,
when appropriately spelled.
To lick is to fog. and the word liek-aer
is particularly suggestive. for wifs-beating
is the common amusementof drunken hds-
bands, and is the direct result Of the lick
her that he has imbibed.
To liek is to lap. to take in, and habit-
ual drunkard will take ia anything that
has spirits with it. or do anything TO get
liquor. He will fawn and lick the dust.
and play the lick spIttle II. get few pen
nies tor drink.
The word liquor might also be spelled
lie queer. The continued use of any aud
all kinds OF intoxicating drinks will make
a man lie and look queer.
The fiimsy excuses. the preyarications,
eyasions and falsehoods OF a drunken man
are proverbial.
That drunken man looks queer, and
acts both queer and silly no one will deny.
MALT.
When any grain has been artificially
sprouted By sleeping. AMI then dried, It is
called malt. Whenever the prefix .'mal. =
is applied TO any word it indicates some
thing evil, the prefix being derived from
the Latin word malus, bad.
The word malt may therefore be defined
az bad.tea: at all events it is made into a
kind of tea. that produces bad effects on
those who drink it.
A large proportion of unpleasant words
have the prefix NAL.
The presence of a drinking man is
like nal aria; it brings bad air and
mal-adies (sickness) of various kinds. his
words are malapropos (unreasOnable) and
mal-apert (saucy). He himself is general
ly NAL contented, frequently guilty Of NAL
feasance dishonesty; he often becomes a
mal-efactor "a eriminaD, is usually NAL
adroit (awkward), ard then tries to cover
up his faults by maledictions on Others,
becoming at last full of malice. mal-cvo-
lence and maI-ignity.

JEFFERSON DAVIS'S SERVANT.
Tile Request Made Him by the Late
President Of the COnfcderacy.
baltimore Sun. |

Frederick B. McGinniss, we'll
known colered man of Baltimore, has
received from Mrs. Jefferson Davis, a
handsome Usage orangewood cane,
which is bequest from the ex-preSl-
dent of the Confederate States. The
cane has massive silver head, hand
somely wrought, and beneath it a
silver band with the inscription: "To
Frederick McGinniss, from Jefferson
Davis, in memory OF faithful services
during 1907"
McGinniss was with Mr.. Davis in
the capacity of servant during his con-
fIncment at Fortress Monroe, and by
his forethought and tact contributed
largely to the comfort Of Mr.. Davis.
Speaking of Frederick in her biography
of her husband, Mrs. Davis said:
'What this judiclous, capable, deli
cate minded man did for US could not
be computed in money or told in
words. He and his gentle wife took
the sting out Of many indignities Of
iered to US in our hours of misfortune.
They were both objects of affection
and esteemed by Mr.. Davis as long as
he lived"
Mrs. Davis also relates OF Frederick
two instances Illustrative Of his devo-
ton to Mr.. Davis To a vulgar in
quiry as to the whereabouts of cleft, -
he answered with a bow, 81 am sorry,
| madam, not to be able to inform you
| where he is. | do not know such a
person." She insisted that he did
saying care you not his servant?'
He answered, "No madam, you are
| quite mistaken. have the honor tc
serve cx-President Davis"
At another time, when about &c

asked him if she might invite several
Of the officers at the fort, notably
General Burton, to witness the mar
rage. He said, "Pleasc excuse me

AN INFANT HERO.
\ Scene Which L fought Tears tC
Many Eyes.
[RC k Hill lie ld.l

In the terrible railroad disaster,
which occurred near Charleston, w.
Va, was one of most pathetic scene.
Walter Welcher and wife, of Charles
ton, were going on a holiday visit to
a friend living up the road. Between
them in the fatal car sat their infant,
a sturdy little blue-eyed boy, whose
playful antics attracted the attention
of the rest Of the passengers as they
watched him at times climbing about
in his mothers arms.
When the sickening plunge came
from the trcstle it meant death to the
little ones parents, both being in
stantly killed. The babe that sat be-
tween them escaped this fate, although
the cruel glass and ponderous timbers
were not so kind. When the resCuing
party entered the car they found the
living babe sitting by the side of its
dead parents, holding up tiny hand
from which two little fingers had been
cut off.
Tears came into the eyes of the
strong fellow who descended into the
wreckage, and bending down, he
clasped the child to his breast with a
warmth which told that he, too, was
4 father, and the thought of his little
ones at home was uppermost i'll his
mind as he grasped the infant sufferer.
Out into the field it was brought and
the surgeon called to attend it. On
examination the physician found that
IN addition to the cuts, the babe had
received several bruises The bleeding
and torn fingers were carefully dressed
and the little tot was laid on blanket
by its dead mother. Until then not a
tear had come into the big blue eyes.
and the childish voice had not given
utterance to 2 whimper OF pain.
Catching sight Of that well-known
face, the dearest in all the world, the
poor little fellow crawled to her side
and silently laying his wounded hand
upon the blood stained cheek, as If tc
ask ''mamma'' to kiss away the pain
that was rackins its every fibre. This
scene was two much for the stoutest.
hearted of the big strong men who
stood looking on, and, although they
were in very atmosphere of pain and
suffering, they broke down and gave
way to sobs and tears. They could
watch strong man in his agony, bu
the sight of the wounded infant mutel,
appealing FOX aid from the mother i
would never know again was too mucl
for their sympathetic natures.
