u all directions for way to protect
their rights and liberties and those OF
their children.
We haveno confidence in class COM
binations in politics, however, and we
believe this latest one will come to as
little as many which have preceded it.
In it's very inception it places OBJ
stacles inits own way, which render
even temporary success impossible.
We are told the labor end Of the pro
posed alliance is a x. Of L. affair, and
is antagonistic to the Federation OF
Labor Similarly, few days ago we
had particulars of the warfare that
the various farming bodies have been
waging against each other The
truth is, such combinations as this,
vague in purpose and incoherent as to
programme, lack all the elements Of
political permanence and success, and
cannot help going to pieces before
they have fairly got in motion.
The only hope for the people is in
the regular parties, and when one is
recreant TO its trust the remedy con-
sists in playing off the other against
it. The way to correct the crimes of
Republicanism is to place the Democ-
racy in the ascendant, and If ever, in
turn, the Democratic party becomes
similarly corrupt and unpatriotic,
the people will reform the party by
placing it in a position of proper
subordination until it purges itself
and forms new purposes and new
ideals.
II workingmen and farmers and all
other citizens would devote less at
tention to wild and hopeless projects,
and would put their energies into the
working of the regular political ma
ehinery, they would accomplish some
real good and save themselves many
bitter disappointInents.

A Day of Disasters.

The Sunday edition OF THE JERSEY
CRY News is today messenger of
evil tidings. 1t brings to the people Of
Jersey City particulars of the saddest
succession Of niishaps that has shocked
the community in many years.
Any one OF the events which we
chronicle would suffice to cast gloom
over the city. The sympathies of the
people are always with our brave
firemen, and the extraordinary sue
cession of fatalities which attended
their work yesterday could not but
fill every heart with grief and amaze
ment.
Henry E. Farrier was born in this
atty and spent his whole life here.
His way was one of courage and rec
titude. and his steps were followed by
the general respect and regard. As
soldier he faced death for the sake
Of his country on many field, and
when other men who fought in the
national armies settled down to enjoy
the blessings Of peace, he adopted a
calling in which peril of life and limb
was still his constant companion.
Rising to prominence in his call
ing, Farrier displayed high qualities
as an organizer and an executive off
Ger. Under his chieftaincy the Jersey
City Fire Department was developed
to a state OF efficiency out of all pro-
portion to the means at his disposal.
Its excellence lay in the courage, the
training and the discipline Of the
men, and in the pride and spirit which
its gallant chief infused into all under
his command.
More than once Chief Farrier dis.
played the undaunted bravery VIII ich
at last led to his death. He wore in
honor the trophies which he won by
saving human life at the risk OF his
own. His name was synonym for
feariessness among all who knew him.
In his death the entire city sustains a
loss, and his friends will find those
who had no personal acquaintance
with him sharers in their sorrow.
There is at least this consolation in
the midst OF the sadness of the hour,
that he died like man in the dis
charge of his duty.
The death OF Fireman Oman is in
its nature even more appalling oc-
currence than the main calamity of
the night. 1t is an awful common
tary on the danger that haunts the
deadly railway crossings of this city.
tits hard to say that any special indi-
viduaI blame attaches to the catas-
trophe. The poor fellow who is killed
doubtless mistook the meaning OF the
delusive waving of lanterns, which is
the only thing to warn people at these
internal death traps. And yet the
watchmen can hardly be blamed,
for they were at their posts and sig
nailed the coming of the train to the
best Of their ability. As for the speed
at which the train was moving, what
does it matter? As between ten and
twenty miles an hour, the difference
to the person who is struck is hardly
worth thinkingof.
The chapter of accidents is rounded
out with minor horrors. which would
suffice to make an ordinary day mem
orabIe, and which are yet almost lost
sight OF on this occasion. The injury
Of two other firemen and the suffoca-
ton OF a citizen in burning building
are make up a sum total Of disaster
that has not been equalled in many a
day in this community.
