JERSEY DESERTS ABBETT.
"A Bitter fractional Fight for Con-
troll of the State Committee.

CHICAGO, ILL.,, June 19.-The meet
ing of the New Jersey delegation this
afternoon was marked by a bitter
fight between the Albeit and anti-Ab,
bett people, in which the Governor
suffered defeat. The struggle came
over the choice of q member of the
National Committee, from which the
Governor has been anxious to displace
Miles Ross and to succeed him by
Allen l.. McDermott.
This opposition to Ross has natur-
ally turned that leader bitterly against
the Governor, and the vote to-day was
test of strength between Albeit and
the other New Jersey Democratic
leaders.
On the first ballot the vote stood 10
for Ross; for McDermott and 2 for
James Smith, Jr, of Newark. On the
second ballot McDermott gained one,
Smith lost and Ross vote stood un-
changed at 10. The third ballot
showed no change. On the fourth
ballot Mr.. Lowry, of Newark. the al
ternate for Judge Krueger, of Newark.
who had been voting for Smith,
changed to Ross, electing the Mon
mouth county statesman by vote of
II to 8 for McDermott.
With Ross, Smith and Mcpherson
against him, the way of the Governor
to the Senatorship promises to be so
rough that he will never attain it.
As a balm to Abbett's feelings the
delegates made him chairman of the
delegation, with Thomas j. Prickett,
OF Buglington, secretary. John Hone,
of Monmouth, was named for honor
ary vice president of the convention,
and these selections were made for the
various committees:
Permanent Organization, J. Smith,
Jr.; Credentials, J. w. Corrigan, of
Bergen; Resolutions, Senator McPher
son; Rules, John H. Scudder, of Mer-
GER; Notification of Candidate, SEN
ator Barker, of Gloucester.
The delegation still stands solid for
Cleveland and will vote as a unit for
him. Governor Albeit, who has been
mentioned as one of those from whom
the speakers to present Grover Cleve-
lands name to the convention would
be selected, arrived this morning and
said that he had not given the matter
any thought.

CRUELTY TO A BEAST.
FAIRTON PEOPLES HNDIGNA-
TION AROUSED.
CedarvilIe Parties Sued to Re.
cover Rent of House.

The good peop.e of Fairton are at
present greatly exercised over a case of
cruelty, which if true as presented,
has never been equalled in this To-
cality.
A man by the name of Baxter, living
there, has owned horse which was
considered fine stallion.
A week or more ago, the animal
kicked Baxter, it is claimed, and
greatly angered the man. He swore
that he would get even with the horse
by starving it to death.
For the past few days, Mr.. Baxter
has been very careful that people
should not be seen about his barn, and
in one or two instances drove people
away from his premises. A day or two
since, neighbors heard sounds coming
from the stable as if the horse was in
distress, and some of them made in
vestigations on their own hook. By
peering through apertures in the
barn, they saw the horse was down
and very thin apparently suffering
greatly. Friday night the horse died
and was carted out in the woods and
left there.
Fairton people were not at all satis-
fed and sent for DIR. Tremaine, the
veterinary surgeon, who made a post
mortem. From his Investigations the
people around there, charge that Bax-
ter had carried out his threat and ac-
tually starved his horse to death.
Complaint was made to the Society
for the Prevention of Cruelty to amin
ais, and suit will be brought against
the man through the justice of the
Peace at Fairton.

EMNIONS BLAINE DEAD.
He Dies Suddenly i'm Chicago ON
Saturday.

CHICAGO, June 1S S-Emmons Blaine,
son of ex-Secretary Blaine, died to-day
at 11.15 a. m. Blood poisoning, the
result of Inflammation of the bowels,
was the cause. The fact of young Mr..
Blaine's death was kept concealed for
some time after he had actually passed
away, the object being to reach the
father first with some gentler intima-
ton of the sad news. Efforts to get
telegraphic communication with the
ex-Secretary failed, however, and
about 1916 the news of the death
leaked out.
1t was not until about quarter of
an hour before the fatal moment that
the least intimation that Mr.. Blaine
was in a dangerous condition became
known. and then only to few. A
his Office in the Baltimore & Ohio
railroad headquarters in this city, his
associates were only aware that he
was ill, and had been so for several
days. Reporters were sent to Mr.
Blaine's home, No. 1876 Rush ST., but
while they were informed that the
patients ailment had resulted fatally,
no other information could be gained
for the time being.
His death took place in the great
brownstone mansion of the McCor-
mick family on Rush.st. Mrs Emmons
Blaine and the two-year-old son, Nc
Cormick Blaine, were the only persons
present beside Mrs. Cyrus Mccormick,
young Mrs. Blaine's mother. Death
came so swiftly when it did come that
there was not time to summon the 9TH
ers members of the Mccormick family,
Mr.. and Mrs. w. g. Mccormick who
were in the house at the time.
Ex-Secretay Blaine knew nothing of
his sons illness until the shocking
news of death had reached him. He
started Immediately for Chicago.

A TIN PLATE PLANT.
BEING ESTABLEsF1ED AT ER.
NEST STATION. NEAR NOR
RISTD sYN.
Good Railroad Facilities and an
Abundant supply of VVaterat
the Site Chosen.

NoRRIsTowN, June 15.-Man
ufacturing circles were somewhat as
tonished to-day to learn that tin
plate industry is in course of building
at their very. doors, and within eight
weeks it is promised by the projectors
of the enterprise, tin plate will, to
some extent, be Montgomery county
product.
The plant is being. established at
Ernest station, about two miles east of
Norristown, by W. E. Edwards, who
owns an extensive tin-plate, manufac-
tory, at Morristown, in the Twansea
Valley, Wales, and another-the
Manstaide Tin Workg-in South
Wales. Mr.. Edwards's father is said to
own the Dutfin Tin Works at Morris
town, and his father. in-lsw, William
Williamson, conducts similar enter.
prise at Worcester, Wales. Mr.. Ed.
wards's representative in the erection
of the Montgomery county plant is
Richard Lewis, who, with his wife,
arrived in America about the middle
of May, when he at once set about look
ing for suitable site for the industry.
The site at Ernest was chosen at once
on account of its railroad facilities Iy-
ing, as it does, between the Schuylkili
Valley and Reading Railroads and
within hundred yards of either, and
because of the facilities for obtaining
an abundant supply of water at a
nominal cost Mr.. Lewis obtained a.
two years. lease on an abandoned oil
refinery, with several acres Of ground. =
with the option of renewing the lease
or buying the property. The build
ing, and old structure, is being rebuilt
and remodeled for the purpose of q
tin-plate establishment, and Mr.. Lewis
predicts that che improvements will
be completed within six weeks. The
machinery required has already ar
rived from England, and will be er-
ected Ia the building with all due haste.
The plant Mr.. Lewis says, will have
capacity of from 600 to 700 boxes of
tin per week, and about so men and
boys will be employed. Nine me-
chanics from the Swansea tin factories
landed In America close upon the
heels of Mr.. Lewis, and are engaged
in the work of preparing the plant.
For the present, Manager Lewis
says, the the block plates will be
brought to Wales and turned here.
If the venture proves q success, the
establishment is to be enlarged to four
times its present capaity, and ultimate
ly, Mr.. Lewis, says, his firm will also
produce the block tio here. This, he
said, would natural, follow, unless
there should be a change in the tin
schedule in the tariff law.
When asked by Philadelphia Led
ger correspondent why it had been de-
cided to tin the black plates in this
country instead of finishing the work
at Wales, where they are manufacture
ed, Mr.. Lewis, said 1t was due to the
difference in the tariff on the black
plates and that on the finished plates.
This difference, he said, is about 80
cents box, and the timing can be
done in this country for considerably
less than that sum.

apple of their eye, as they want an
increase of business, the country
demands the improvements, and
the dull times require both. Now,
reader, can you realize what the
situation would be two years from
now? Should the bill become law,
and be honestly administered, all
the above fancies would then be
facts, and thousands of acres would
be set to coffee, and sure way
would be opened to pay our Gov
eminent debt. Therefore we should
pass the bill, improve and prosper,
as without it, one must continue to
financially shrink, and burden our
Government with debt and dis
grace. Again, 1 say, pass this bill,
and no longer depend on the ''rice
and sugar barons" for money to

country, and measure and ex-
change our commodities as we are
now doing. Let US pass the bill,
and thus become financially. indie

Lotteries.

Mr.. EDITOR Some Of the writer's
in the papers seem to think that
the statements made in regard to
the Louisiana Lottery are strained
and overdrawn, while in point of
fact no one so far has been able to
adequately portray one-tenth part
of the evil resulting from this
wholesale gambling game.
Gambling is known to be the
most demoralizing of all vices. 1t
is responsible for more deaths,
ruined homes and lives than all
other vices put together, excepting
perhaps drunkenness. Its victims
are almost numberless, and come
from all classes. The more elegant
precipitate themselves to death at
Monte Carlo and other gambling
resorts of the world; while the
poor, after being driven to despair
by a continued course Of. disap-
pointment, sink in poverty, in
misery long drawn out, and many
of them to ignominious death.
There may be men who have
control enough to withstand the
temptation, but numberless per-
sons would fall, sink perhaps never
to rise again. They would be car
ried away as they were in America.
The wild and uncomfortable
spirit of gambling would possess
them, and they would be rapidly
carried away to destruction and
ruin.
But this is not the worst aspect
of this gilded vice; it is an en-
ticing snare for the young--the
bright and alluring prize hangs
continually glittering before their
eyes. What wonder, then, that
| they should try and pluck it.
This lottery bill is undoubtedly
worse than it looks, as a great
many argue that it is no great
wrong to buy a lottery ticket, and
the young might be led astray by
this sophistry but it is neverthe.
less a step downward from the
high plane or standard of morality
it is falling away from those
pure principles of honor and hon
esty which should dictate and con.
troll the actions of men, and par
ticularly the young.
A gambling scheme never has
and never can make a people
prosperous. It's tendencies are t.
crush out all good impulses, ant
impoverish the poor and bring t.
them ruin, shame and disgrace.
