Loudensla ger Beats Bergen In Salem
Other Counties TO BE Heard From.
Special to the jersey Citv Neics.
SALEM, Sept. Il, 1S92.-There was a
bitter fight at the Congressional dele
gate meetings in this city and through
out the county. D. Herbs Smith was at
the head of the Bergen faction and
worked untiriugly for Bergen. It is al
legged that $50 apiece was offered dele
gates to stand on their ticket, while the
price paid the purchssable element for
votes last evening ranged from 81. SO to So.
A number of the delegates Withdrew
their names on the day previous to the
meeting. Every effort was made to carry
the ticket through, but with no result.
The scene at the East Ward meeting in
Salem last night was animated. Even
bull doing" tactics were resorted to
to keep voters from the ballot box. and a
ring of paid voters three or four deep
surrounded it for half an hour or more
and prevented others from reaching it
and depositing their votes. This WAS
broken up by the officers. The poll list
in the East Ward, according to the last
assessment, is 901. The number of votes
cast last evening in that ward was over
300. A count showed the Loudenslager
delegates elected by over 100 majority.
At the meeting OF the West Ward last
night, Loudenslager delegates were elect
ed. The Bergen faction in the mean
time had posters printed calling a meet
ing at the Garwood House and then Sc
lected another set of delegates.
In the various townships in Salem
county, Loudenslager delegates were
elected and Salem county can be consid-
cred solid for LoudenslaRer. although it
is reported one delegated is ION the
fence" From present indications the
fight is pretty evenly divided between
L~oudenslager and Bergen. Leaning Of
Cape May is looming up. The Young Re-
publican Club of Camden and other or
CARNATIONS have intimated that they will
be present to boom Bergen. Tine conven-
ton will be heId today.

lican delegates returning from the on

When near Monmouth junction at 5:17
there was a jar, then a crash, and the
next instant the two rear cars were
ploughiug through the road ballast and
ties ana the delegates were being pitched
about amid flying glass and woodwork.
The train was running on track No. 1,
and when it reached Il crossover switch
all the cars passed it safely to track No. 2.
except the last two, which swung around
to track No. 8 with the forward trucks
and jumped the rails with the rear
trucks.
The last car fell over against several
freight cars which were on track No. 3
aud was ripped from end to end. The
passenger train kept on at rapid speed
aud tracks, ties and ballast were ripped
I'D and scattered on all sides. The last
car broke from the train.
When the wild rush was over it was
found that no passengers were hurt, but
between the opposite rails John Roeder,
a track walker, was found mangled to
death. He leaves a widow and four
young children. The passengers took up
a collection for them and $253 were raised.
Henry Allison, a freight brakeman, had
his arm broken and chest crushed. He
died a few hours later.

NECESSITY OF GOVERNMENTAL REFORM.
From Harper's Weekly.

from duTpeTS WeeHIy.f
Reform in our national govern mens is
essentially one impulse. one principle,
bne policy. Demoralizing and in
iQuitous taxation . Is intimately associ-
aIed with ali other demoraiizing and
mig uitous methods of legislation and adj
ministration. Thoughtful students of his
tory will see the connection between our
vicious tariff system and that extension of
"bossism" which makes a complete re-
form of the civil service more essen-
tial than ever. They see that the waste
and corruption of our pensions are largely
a result of the same cause. They see that
the schemes by which ignorance, fanatl-
cism, and avarice are conspiriDg TO de-
grade the currency most of their dan
gerous strength to the avs which hav-
trained men TO seek wealth in legislation
rather than in industry. The revolt of
1890 against the Mckinley tariff was the
first expression of an outraged people
against a great wrong, and the passion
which inspired it seemed for
the time to be exhausted in the
effort. But there is deeper meaning
in the widespread growth of an in
telligent sentiment of reform, in the pro-
found conviction that public Office is a
public trust, and that its powers must he
exercised only for the peoples good. 1t
is the rapid growth of this sentiment, de-
handing a single eve to the nations well
fare in every appointment to Office, in
every enactment of d tax, in every ex-
penditure OF the peoples money. that IS
the significant feature of American DO
litical life. With the call for tariff re-
| form as the type of its demands. as the
| reached by success III this election. indie
pendents unite with the young Democ-
| racy and proclaim their purpose to apply
this principle everywhere.
