LEFT THE STREET IN BAD SHAPE.

Three weeks ago, employees of the Con-
sumers' Gas Company began to lay new
gas mains on Ocean avenue from Chapel
to Danforth avenues
The east side of the street from the car
tracks to the curb stone was torn up. The
work has been completed but the street
has not been restored to anv-
thing like its former condition.
What was once a smooth macadamized
road is now a mass of broken stone
Drivers OF vehicles have to ride on
the west side of the thoroughfare
and when truck breaks down the horse
cars cannot jump the tracks and
block, which sometimes lasts several
hours follows. Unless the gas company
repairs the street, and that quickly too,
the Sixth District Citizens Association
will bring the matter before the Board
of Street and Water Commissioners.

The Democrats OF the Eighth Assem- bly,
district were out in folte last night. A
ratification meeting was held at PohI-
mans Pavilion, at which the greatest en-
thusiasm was manifested.

at all taken aback by not receiving the
Assembly nomination and he was present
at the meeting, Congressman Edward f
Mcdonald was the firstspeaker. He was
greeted with prolonged cheers,
the Republicans. Cleveland and
Stevenson were repeatedly cheered, as

longed to that section Of the district. Bay
onne had won the honor in perfectly
fair fight. and he would therefore move
TO make the nomiEation unanimous. The
motion prevailed.
When the committee appeared with
Mr. Berry, the candidate, he was ac-
corded warm reception. He modestly
thanked the convention for the nomina-
tion in brief speech. Subsequently the
gathering got enthusiastic o.er the ap-
pearance in the hail of Winfield Scott
Chamberlin, the Republican candidate
for Congressman from the Eighth Con-
gressional District.

STUPID ELECTION OFFICERS.
They Refuse to Reg ster Mr.. Charles b.

They Refuse to Reg ster Mr.. Charles b.
Thurston.
The election officers of the Eleventh
precinct of the Second district appear to
be about as fine a specimen of the incom-
petent as has loomed up in Jersey City in
some time, and the prospects that
tney will get themselves inro serious
trouble are exceedingly bright. They
refused this morning to register Mr..
Charles B. Thurston, President of the
jersey City and Bergen Railroad Com
psny. Mr.. Thurston has been a resident
of this city for many years. during the
last ten OF Which he has lived at his pres
ent residence at Rutherford and Sig ave
nues.
The house stands by itself IN the midst
OF large grounds and has never had a
number. For long time it was the
only house west of 1onnele avenue and
no house on Sip avenue west of Tonnele
has number.
The fact that Mr.. Thurston is citizen
and resident of Jersey City is too well
known in this city. one would think, to
preclude all doubt of his right to vote.
Yet this morning wheii he went to regis
ter, the officers refused to enter his name
upon the books. giving the most abs urd
excuse that they could not register him
because there was no number on his
house.
Where the officers get any authority for
such action it is hard TO say, and they
will be accorded an opportunity TO explain
TO the Court their absurd position if they
can, as Mr.. Thurston will prob ably apply
for mandamus to compel them 10 regis
Ter him.

Knocked Down by a NEGRO.

We take the following article
from the Appeal-Avalanche. Mrs.
Smith has relatives in Bolivar.
Mrs. F. j. Smith, the aged lady
who was knockek down by negro
on St. Paul Street last Wedn esday
night, is in seriously injured con-
dition as the result of the assault,
though no danger of fatality exists.
The circumstance of the case are
remarkable. Mrs. Smith resides
with her son in law, j. II. Garrett,
at 220 st. Paul ST. She was re
turning home about 6 o'clock on
Wednesday evening in company
with her little granddaughter.
When within few steps of home
she was knocked down by a bury
negro, who quickly wrenched a
shopping pocket from her arm and
made his escape. The brutal act
was witnessed by several children
who were playing near by. Their
screams soon brought help. Mrs
Smith was insensI BILE when found
and remained so two hours. Her
injuries are not dangerous but pain
ful. The pocket contained some
money, a pair of gold spectacles
and other valuables. This occurr-
ed in one of the incest and most re-
specDable localities in the city.
Mrs. Smith is highly respected
lady and the neighbors are justly
indignant over the outrage, ami
hope the authority will find the
fend aud punish HIM as he dcser-
yes.

act wisely they will abolish the

m any offices and too large peEqai--

of Treasurer and that of Comptroller

Mr.. j. n. HARRIS, of Coving-

of Collector of Customs in the city

WITH unleIgned disgust, we have
noticed the tactics resoried to by
a clan domicilel In the fair county
of Upton, our former home, to
bring into prom inence the cardinals
and office-seekers of that faction.
To accomplish their designs, CORE
spondents from that county have,
through the colmns of the morning
daily papers of Memphis, showered
copius ecomiums upon those who
are so richly favored with the
smiles and esteem of the selt-npIn-
donated beacon lights of Democracy.
Nor is this all--around them, the
chIeftsns gather their trusted aids
and while away the time in having
past laudatory resolutions, recOunt>
ing their valuable services rendered,
and indorsing them upreservedly
for the positions to which they as
pire. A meeting of this kind, by
them, was held in the capitol of that
county this week. On that occa-
sion there were present all told
seventeen. six of whom were in
dOrsees. The usual program was
carried out. In that county there
are other Democrats equally as
deserving, but whose names, on
such occasions, are invariably left
out. Among them may be men,
toned that stalwart Democrat, N.
w, Baptist, who, though seeking no
Office, for the time beng laid aside,
the care of business, and heroically
battied for the success of Democ-
racY, and ceased not until the VIC
was won, The TiptCn Record also
labored increasingly for that end,
bit II seems that both the CORE
spondents alluded to, and the ex-
pert ndorsers consider the services
rendered by that paper as valuless.
Such a state of affairs ought not
exist. Brethren should dwell to-
getber in unity.

fact--it is right and proper. But
our whole country seems to have
gone wild in the mad scramble
for Office. OF course everybody
can not be successful, some must
OF necessity be disappointed, and
the latter class should manfuliy ac-
cept the result. An honest, true
democrat votes for principle, not
for peIf.
"He who smiles gainst bis will
is of his own opinion still. There
are men, even in Hardeman Coun-
ty, who laid awake of nights study
ing some scheme to defeat democ-
racy; but in spite of them we won.
And now in a half hearted manner
these same men pretend to be over
joyed. Deep down in their hearts
bitter hatred is cherished for ev-
erything democratic, and whenever
occasion presents itself they will
again administer a stab in the back
to the party they profess TO love.
Many different kinds OF people are
required to make up the world, in
the composition of which a deceit
ful hypocrite Is SAID to stand upon
the bottom round Of tue ladder.
Such men, however, live and pay
their taxes-and some pay their
debts.
