zinc Dcrnocratic editor. Bic and

The Democratic editors, big and lit.
lie, have been pitching into the so,called
'force billn for some weeks past with all
their might. Il isn't likely, judging from
their comments, that a dozen OF them
know what the bill is. But that does not
matter Their Southern masters have ex-
pressed. antagonism to it, and Northern
Democratic doughfaces now, as before
the rebellion, do their bidding.
Traitors aud doughfaces in the Repub.
lican party helped to kill the bill and 1t is
laid aside for the present, but does any
one suppose that that is the end of It'll
The Constitution gives the right OF fran
chise TO the colored people. This right
is denied to them in . majority of the
Southern States, and intimidation, fraud,
violence and even murder are resortcd to
in many cases to prevent its exercise.
By the constitutional gift OF citizenship
to the negro, the Southern States gain q
greatly increased representation In Con-
gress. By the deprivation OF the right Of
the negro to vote, this gain Is all absorbed
by the Democratic party. So It appears
to be true Gas it was claimed before the
war in the matter of fighting) that in the
matter of representation, one Southern
white man is about equal to two at the
North.
All the provisions Of the so-called
'force bill" may,not have been wise, but
the main object of that bill-the guaran-
tee to every man, white or black, North
or South, to vote without intimidation
and have his vote counted-appeals to
every man who loves justice aud fair play.
The man who opposes just bill, In
the interests of fair and honest elections,
because it will injure his party, lacks an
Important element in bis character which
goes to make an honest man aud q good
citizen.
Without full. free and honest cast
ing OF the vote of the people, high and
low, rich and poor, white and black, re-
publican government Is a pretense. Al
present, it is only pretense 10 the South.

A New Fist, Law.

A New Fish Law
Much interest is being taken BY many
prominent citizens of the counties of Hun
terdon and Warren, upon the subject Of
having fish-ways constructed through the
mill-dams across the streams that form
the tributaries OF the Delaware river, above
tide water. Their action has taken the
form Of petition to the Legislature for
the enactment of law that will provide
for the construction Of fish.wsys through
the dams in tue streams that are the ma
tural sources for migratory fishes. The
petitioners through their counsel are hav-
ing bill prepared that will soon be sub
mittcd to the Legislature for their con-
sideration. Should such d law be enacted
in this State it would only be following
the example OF such States as New York,
Pennsylvania and most of the New Eng
land and Northern States.

Mr.. Keys, of Somerset, who Ii occupy
ing seat in the Senate 10 defiance of the
constitution, showed tardy sense OF pro-
priety, last week, in declining to serve as
a member of the committee to try his own
case. 1t took four weeks of repeated pub
lie clubbing to beat this idea into the
gentleman's head. 1t would never other
wise have entered into his mind that there
was any improperly In serving on the
committee. His final refusal to serve is
mild rebuke to President Adrain for
appointing him.

The President has signed the Congress
sional Apportionment bill, and 1t is now
law. The duty OF constructing new Con-
gressional districts for New Jersey, under
this apportionment, now confronts the
Legislature. Nobody expects the work to
be done by the large Democratic majority
In both houses, except in a thoroughly
partisan way. Every possible advantage
that cunning and unfairness can sug-
gest will be ruthlcssly seized.

life, The movement originated some months
ago, but at that time it was intended to raise
fund which would enable her to live in
comfort and convenience, if not IN luxury.
Before this scheme had far progressed,
however, the government voted pension to
the venerable widew, while her sons, who re-
side IN the east, invited her to make her
heme with them. Hence it was that, at her
own request, the raising of the fund was dis
confined.
But the ladies of California insisted that
their intention of presenting her with testi-
monial expressive of their sympathy and
esteem sheuld not be interfered with. Ac-
cordingly committee was appointed with
Mrs. George S. Bucknall, f San Francisco,
as president, and Mrs. Senator George Hearst
as secretary, and in few weeks the sum of
$1,000 was secured. A portion of this has
been used to purchase the cottage now occu-
pied by Mrs. Fremont and her daughter,
while the balance is large enough to entirely
pay off some old debts, which would nave
reduced the income from the pension bill.
She is now, therefore, the owner of her
own pretty home, and with no further need
of worrying concerning provision for her
remaining days.

LAWRENCE, KAN, December 4.-Severa
of the students at the Haskell institute, the
Indian school here, have received letters
from their relatives In the Indian territory
regarding the Messiah craze. One of the
letters is from Caddo chief to his daughter.
1t is dated hnadarko, and tells of the ghost
dances. The chief tells his daughter not to
Tldicule the coming of the Indians Christ,
for she knows nothing OF the wonderous
manifestations the Indians have received
from him regarding his appearance on earth
again. He says that may be some time
her Indian instincts will assert Themselves
and then she will come back 20 her people,
join in the dance and make herself ready to
receive the Messiah. The old chief says the
belief is confined mostly 10 the good Indians.
ami he regrets that the bad ones will not
amend their ways and accept the Christ.
Another of the letters is from an uncle to
his nephew. This letter also tells OF the
wonderful revelations that have been made
at the ghost dances and Of the marvellous IN
tervicws the inspired Indians have had with
the Messiah. Some of the inspired Indians,
says the writer. have had interviews during
their frances with dead relatives, who have
told thsm 70 prepare for the coming OF
Christ, and not to treat him as did the white
people of old. The writer cautions his
nephew not to reject the Messiah until he
attended ghost dance and has had an oppor-
tunity to Judge for himself of the evidences
of the coming of Christ.

NEW YORK, December 29.-The predicted
pedestrians are few and far between, and the
surface cars are making poor work of it in
spts of the fact that four horses are trying
TO do the usual work OF two.
Navigation in the rivers and on the bay Is
seriously lnterfered with, but SO far no acct
dents have been reported.
This storm, which is pronounced to be the
worst since the blizzard of March. 1883, has
been given tie south taste of its quality,
md its center worked its way up from Lou
isiana to Tennessee.
The storm depression is trying to get up
n arc of high barometer in lower Canada,
and as New York is in the center of the track
she will have her full share OF depression.
PITTsBURG, PA.--Another big snow storm
Is raging here. II has been showing steadily
for eighteen hours and there are no lnGlca-
tons of its cessation. Between twelve and
fourteen inches of snow has already fallen.
Trains are all several hours behind time
and street car traffic on all but the cable
roads has been temporarily suspended. The
SNOW is dry and has not affected the tele-
graph service.
ALBANY. \. Y.-Snow commenced falling
at $50 o'clock. accompanied by a northwest
wind. At IL o'clock it continued to storm
hard.
WIIKEsBaRRE, PA.-Snow began to fall
here at midnight and at noon the storm is
still raging tiercely with snow drifts of two
or three feet III the streets.
From the present indications the storm
will continue through the day. The electric
street railways and horse cars are unable to
run and traffic is blocked on all sides.
Trains on all the railroads are delayed and
business is practically suspended throughout
the Wyoming valley.
AsBuRY PARK, N IA heavy snow storm
has prevailed here. A three masted schooner
is stranded off Deal beach. The men from
life saving station No. Z have boats ready to
lend assistance. The schooner Is being
driven further up the beach by the surf. She
will probably be a total wreck.

SeXaral HOStiIeS Killed

CANT NEAR BATTLE CREEK, S. d., Decem-
Der 2e.-The situation here remains practi-
cally unchanged. The weather is cold and
the rivers frozen solid. A company of Chey-
enne scouts is encamped at the mouth of
Battle creek.
Two attempts were made by the hostiles,
who number about eighty, to break into
their camp.
The first attack was made by only few of
the Indians, who were quickly repulsed with
loss of two killed and several wounded.
Three of the Cheyenne Indian scouts are
wounded, and it is thought one is fatally
hurt.
The second attack was made after dark by
what was supposed to be the whole band,
who were led by Kicking Bear himself.
Volley after volley was fired on both sides
and desultory fire was kept up for an hour
or more. Il is not known how many of the
hostiles were killed, but Judging from the
reports of one of the scouts there mus. have
been several killed. as he heard several shout
in Sioux language that they were hit. Troops
were sent to the scene and report everything
quiet and no hosties in sight.

Can ada KICKS.

OTTAWA, Ont, December 27.-More than
ordinary interest is manifested by Canadian
politicians in the reciprocity agitation at
Washington, as between the United States
and the Hon. Robert Bond, representing
Newfoundland. From the characteristic en-
ergy of the people of the United States it is
fair to assume that capital and enterprise
would at once be devoted to the working of
the Newfoundland fisheries, both in-shore
and deep sea, with the result that the Amer
lean demand for Canadian fish might be
curtailed. Newfoundland purchases more
Canadian manufactured goods than any
other country, with the exception of Great
Britain and the United States: therefore.
there is prospect of Canada losing a large
part of this trade IN event of Mr.. Bonds
mission being successful. Before a reciproc-
ity treaty is consummated, if it ever reaches
that stage, the Canadian government will
file an emphatic protest.

WILDLY ABSURD.
No Possibility of War With
England
There Are Hundreds OF Millions Of
British Capital Invested In Amer
ica-England Has Been Misled by
Canadian Misrepresentations

WASHINGTON, D. c., December 26.-Sir
Julian Pauncefote. the British minister, has
had two or three long interviews with Secre-
tary Blaine this week. There will be no war
with England over the fur seal fisheries. Mr..
Blaine has expressed so clearly the rights of
this country in the case tina. the English
government cannot sustain itself. England
has been mIsled by Canadian misrepresen-
tstions and will soon be glad to accept our
plan of settlement.
The relations between the two countries
are strong = commercial sense. There are
vast financial interests in London which de-
pend absolutely on the tranquility of affairs
on this side of the water.
There is no place in the world where there
Is greater desire for financial prosperity in
America than in London. The reason for
this IS, of course, selfish one.
There are hundreds of millions of British
capital invested IN America. Talk of war
between the two countries is wildly absurd.
