Young on the First Ballot.

As the situation looks today, it is
impossible to doubt that Mr.. E. F. c..
Young will be nominated for the Gov
ernorship by the Democratic Conven-
ton at Trenton on Wednesday. After
him, no candidate shows the slightest
vestige of strength except Judge
Werts. Judge Werts has positively
refus ed to take the nomination. He
has publicly explained that he cannot
take it without personal dishonor.
His pretended adherents have no real
intention of nominating him. They
cling to his name just to hold their
forces together to be swung over to
somebody else whenever somebody
available turns up. 1t is only possible
that they may attempt to nominate
him as matter of desperation if they
can discover nobody else to unite
upon.
If the nonsense about Judge Werts
were dropped, no name but that of
Mr.. Young would be heard. Two
thirds of all the votes now counted as
for Werts, would go over to him,
while the rest would scatter among
four Or five Insignificant candidates.
Mr.. Young would be nominated on the
first ballot by a vote exceeding two
thirds of the whole Convention.
Our Trenton correspondent informs
us that Mr.. Young has, under any and
all circumstances $50 votes on the first
ballot, with a practical certainty of
eighty more on the second. We be-
lieve Mr.. Young ismuch stronger than
this. He will have, we believe, a
number of votes from Passaic, Union,
Mercer, Burlington, and perhaps some
other counties which III correspond
ent does not mention. We regard it
as pretty certain that he will go over
400 on the first ballot with great ease.
He may even be nominated on it.
Morris will go over to him on the
second ballot. Other counties will
follow suit. Perhaps these changes
may ven take place on the first bal
lot before the result is formally an
nounced.
The fight is now prac tically over.
1t only remains to record a result,
which nothing but incredible treach-
cry and deceit can alter.

DR.. CHOLERA JENKINS is alto
gether too pusillanimous in his treat
ment of the cabin passengers on the
Normannia. For the awful crime of
attempting to come home, they should
be visited witha monumental punish
ment. His efforts to decimate them with
worry and il~l-usage are we'll meant,
but wholly inadequate. We would
suggest that the Doctor send the Ce-
phi Gus out to sea some twenty miles
with the whole lot on board and then
blow her up with dynamite. Perhaps
it would be an Improvement if he
caused the arrest of all the friends of
the imprisoned people who have dared
to display anxiety in their behalf and
put them on board of the steamer too.
Thus would the official dignity be
indicated, the danger of infection
averted, and the eternal fitness of
things exempliied in the true spirit of
how-not-to-do-it..

A PIONEER GONE. Isaiah Meek, of
Bonaparte, Iowa, died Friday aged Il.
Mr.. Meek was one of the oldest settlers
of Iowa, coming to the territory of
Iowa with his father in 1845, when 16
years old. They first built a grist mill
in the 40s, and in 1851 Isaiah and his
brother Robert built the first WOolen
mill in the state. In 1861 the wOolen
mill burned, and they erected the pres.
ent large plant on the ruins of the one
burned. Mr.. Meek was one Of the
most eDterprising manufacturers
of wooden goods, and also engaged
largely in farming and sheep raising,
owning at the time of his death $500
acres of farming land near Bonaparte,
and flock of sheep numbering over
5000 head. His death Is a great loss to
the state and the town Of Bonaparte.
He gave employment, in his woolen
and -four mills and pants factory to
over 200. The funeral will be sunday
afternoon. Mr.. Meek leaves q wife.
three sons and three daughters. The
business will undoubtedly be continued
by his sons. Mr.. /. Frankel and
others Of this section have sold wool to
the Meeks for many years.
