Abbettism, that liberality of view,
that care for the benefit of the whole
people, regardless of the interests of
cliques and classes, of which the Re-
publican party SO bitterly complains.
The growth of our cities has con-
tributed to the establishment of our
farming interests, for a time in
jured by the competition of the West.
Ne markets are opened for agricul-
turists and there is a new demand for
a new class of crops. The conditions
of life are such now as tt call for the
transformation of New Jersey into a
huge orchard and market garden for
its own cities and the great ones
which lie on its borders, north and
south. To meet the requirements of
the new state of things, Abbettism
has turned the attention of the people
everywhere to the development of
new highways of travel. The road
question, which is a distinct product
of Abbettism, is one of the most i'm
poatrnt of the day, and it's solution,
for which Governor Albeit and the
Democratic party have opened the
way, is the next great step ahead in
the history of the State.
Abbettism has paid off a debt of
$500, 900 which the Republican party
left as a legacy to the Democracy on
taking control of the States affair S
Abbettism has put a surplus of half a
million in the State Treasury.
Abbettism has reconstructed the
great institutions of the State,
and reformed and cheapened their
management, while increasing their
efficiency. Abbettism has made
the railways contribute to the
burdens of the State. Abbettism has
guaranteed the workingman that, in
case of difference with his employer,
he will not have the rifles of the Ma
tional Guard turned in his face. At
the same time, it guarantees the owner
of property the most complete police
protection under all circumstances
and in all crises.
We might go on and fill column af-
ter column with the benefits that
Abbettism has conferred upon the
State; but it is not necessary. They
are alive in the hearts of a grateful
people. We like to hear the Republic
can organs raise the cry of Albeit
ism. 1t means confusion and defeat
for them and victory and triumph
for the Democratic party, whose
principles r simply another name
for Abbettism.

cONUNDRUMS FOR THE MKINLEYITES

To the Editor of the JERSEY City Netos:-
In the Evening Journal of Oct. 81 APP
peared the following inquiry: "If free
trade Is a failure in Great Britain, how
could it be a success in this country?" In
answering the Journal through tn e
columns of your valuable paper, 1 will
state it has never proven a failure in
Great Britain, and no Mckinley protec-
ZIONIST can ~substantiats any fact to tina
fleet Great Britain is the most wealthy
country in all of Europe, while all her sis
ter countries are more or less high pro-
~tectionists. She has the largest CONNER
| cial navy in the world. her working
| classes receive higher wages, and
their conditions are in every re-
spect superior to the working classes OF
any of her sister high taxed countries.
The German and Italian immigration to
the United States ending June 30. 1891,
| alone was 81, $40 more tina the whole of
| Great Britain, and the total European
immigration ending the same date (not
including Great Brittany was 422, l22.
while the whole immigration was 121, 853.
If protection protects. and betters the con-
ditions of the poor workingmen, and is the
only guarantee to give him higher wages.
why the cause of this large majority Of
422, 1872 more immigrants from the protec-
ton countries of Europe than from this
"poor'' free trade Great Britain.
The total valuation of Great Britain's
manufactures in 1888 was 81. 100, 900. 600.
Germany. s2,915. 600, 600; France, $685.
00O. 600. and high taxed Italy, $6O5. 900, 600;
Caa the EUening Journal or any advo-
cate of the Infamous Mckinley bill, deny
these facts? And If Great Britain can
prosper under her free trade, why cannot
the United States prosper, and become
more wealthy under a Tariff Reform?
She can and she will.

Able ttism.

When a Republican newspaper gets
badly ratified over an impending party
defeat, it always digs up that word,
"Abbettism, and goes into paroxysms
of feigned wrath over the awfulness of
the State policy of our great Demo
cratic leader. The appearance of the
word is a sure presage of defeat to the
G. o. P. 1t is their "Mane Tekel
Phares." 1t is the writing on the wall
before which they quail.
"Abbettismn has been the prevailing
political force in New Jersey for now
nearly ten years, for since the Cover
nor's first election in 1883, his ideas of
Democracy have guided the affairs of
State. He has been the head of the
ruling party in State affairs, and the
leading thinker, adviser, and origina-
tor of action. What has been the re-
suit to the State and its people of his
conduct of affairs?
The State has passed through a dec
ade of wholly unexampled prosper
ity, peace, and progress. Our good
Republican friends love to dwell upon
the growth of u industries, and we
heartily agree with them. Freed
from the onus of a State tax, with
liberal laws to encourage them, with
peace and protection secured them,
manufacturers have flocked to this
State as to a promised land of devel-
opment and profit. Our liberal laws
have made the State the home and
headquarters of i~ncalculable millions
of capital gathered from all
parts of the country and even from
Europe, and the expenses of our gov
eminent are largely betrayed by the
of this capital, while our own
people enjoy the benefits in a COM
plete immunity from State taxation.
New industries, new enterprises,
capital have brought new popu-
lation. Our cities have grown at a
rate exceeding even the marvellous
progress of New York. They have
grown not with a pauper popu-
lation but with swarns of
prosperous business men and
manufacturers and with armies
of contented working people. 1t is
true, the conduct of various Republic
can powers, Mr.. George A. Halsey and
his leather combination in Newark,
the Trenton pottery tyranny, the
South Jersey glass capitalists, have,
by trying to grind the faces of their
working people, retarded and i'm
peded the growth of the State. ]. is
true that the Mckinley bill, by I'M
settling values and disturbing the
commercial system of the country,
prevented New Jersey from gaining
the iull profits of the last two years
of prosperity, just as it has
every other part of the country. But,
in spite of these retarding retrograd-
ing influences, the State has pro-
crossed, and, next to the blessings of
Divine Providence. the most import
ant element in its advance was that

"The Struggle of Life.' %

"The Struggle of Life"
Walter Sanford's production OF the
local melodrama, "The Struggle of Life"
will be presented at the Academy of
Music next week. The plot deals with
the trials of a young man against whom
is brought a false charge OF forgery; he
avoids a ~disgraceful prosecution by flight,
hoping with time to bring the crime home
to the real perpetrators; this he does
most successfully, but not until
he escapes many hidden traps
set for him by his unscupulous enemy,
who turns out to be his one-time friend.
The stage setting is a great feature of
this production and as the scenes repre-
sented are famous New York localities,
the scenic artist has had full scope.
Among the stage pictures are an illumin-
ated view of st. Patrick's Cathedral and
upper Fifth avenue; a desolate looking
street in the slums: City Hall and Park
Row: a winter view of Battery Park with
the st atue of Liberty in the distance. and
a view of the docks along the East River
ron showing the sewers of the great city
underneath. There will be an extra
Election Day matinee.

such Incidents as the following which
is of actual occurrence.

himself side by side with a timid-look-
ing little man, and exactly behind q
lady. A movement of the crowd forced
the young man to step upon the hem

furious look, and was evidently about
to address some fierce remark to him,
when q change came over her face sud

said; II was going to get very angry.

they do with other men, what is the
