A Terrible Mistake.

The Jersey City Herald this morn
ing threatens-or at least the an
nouncement has a threatening tone
an attack on Senator Mcpherson. 1t
says it will present valid reasons why
he should not be a member of Presi-
dent Clevelands Cabinet. This seems
to US to be unjust, injudicious and
un generous in the last degree.
1t is altogether a matter for Presi'
dent Cleveland and the Senator to
determine whether the latter shall
enter the Cabinet or not. Senator
Mcpherson was the leader of the
Cleveland movement in this State. He
was the leading spirit in the State
Convention which instructed the
State Delegation to stand by the
great Tariff Reformer under all con-
~tfngencies. 1t is true, too much praise
cannot be given Governor Albeit for
his manly and patriotic adoption of
the peoples will as a law for his
guidance and an inspiration for his
action. We believe Governor Alb
belts course in this conjuncture was
one of the finest episodes in his
career. But we do not propose, in
honoring him, to detract one iota
from that which is. due to Senator
Mcpherson. The President may we'll
call either of these men to his council,
but it is certainly open to him to
chose which he will. Senator Nc.
Fherson has the advantage of having
led his party in the Senate through
out the great battle over the Me-
Kinley bill.
Why the Herald should choose this
time to assail a great State leader,
and make bad blood in the party, we
cannot imagine. 1t will certainly do
deadly injury. and perhaps bring ruin
to the cause it is most interested in.
There is many a friend of Senator
McPherson's who will work tooth and
nail-if work be needed-to elect
Governor Albeit to the United States
Senate, if peace prevail, but who will
coldly stand aside or perhaps fight on
the other side if Senator Mcpherson
is to be made a target for attacks
for which there is no necessity. We
speak by the card.
Senator Mcpherson has worked
honorably to elect George T. Werts
Governor. He has made as many
speeches as anyone, and has done all
the work that could be asked from
him. Why this hostility?
Let us have peace.

NEWARK. Nov. 70, 1892.-The following
notice relating to the share which the
women of New Jersey are expected to
take in the Chicago Fair has been is
sued:-
The interest in the work of the Worlds
Fair in the State of New Jersey is rapidly
increasing. The work claiming especial
attention at the present time is the part
that VOL will take in its representa-
ton. The Newark Exchange for Wom-
ans Work decided at its last meeting to
make an exhibit, and in this action the
other exchanges will probably join. 1t is
desired that all representative work done
by women be put upon exhibition, and
it is fully believed that in tina exhibit
our State will stand second to none,
"A meeting in the interests of women's
held in the Prudential building. Newark,
on Monday. November 81, at three
o'clock. All women Of both city and
state are cordially invited to be present.
Interesting speeches from prominent
leaders In the work may be expected, and
we hope the women of New Jersey will
show by their attendance their apprecia-
ton Of the stand it is to be hoped New
Jersey will take.

A Republican Defeat.

It is not so much a Democratic victory as a
Republican Defeats state Gazette.
This is just what we think of it.
The popular verdict of Tuesday was,
We think, mainly a condemnation of
the Republican party.
1t was a condemnation of the Nc
Kinley system of protection" which
is running the commerce of the coun-
try for the benefit of a few monope-
lists.
It was a condemnation of the Force
Bill proposition, which aimed to over
throw government by popular cleo
ton and substitute the rule of a
dominant faction.
1t was a condemnation of Davsn-
portism, which is simply a localized
application of the Force Bill idea.
It was a condemnation of the prac-
tiee of carrying elections by the cor
rupt use of money.
It was a condemnation of the blus-
tering and dangerous foreign policy
of President Harrison.
It was a condemnation of the use of
the Federal Office holders to control a
party machine and dictate nomina-
tons.
It was a condemnation of sectional
luminosity as shown in the attitude OF
the Republican party towards the
South.
1t wal a condemnation of sectional
favoritism as shown in the action of
the Republican party in the location
of the Columbus fair.
1t was a condemnation Of govern
mental extravaganza as shown in the
bounty lavishing, pension squander-
ing, river and harbor wasting record
of the Billion Congress.
It was a condemnation OF the mu-
tilation Of the new navy In the
interest Of a millionaire contractor,
as was proven in tine matter Of the
ar1ner plate scandal.
It was a condemnation Of the abuse
of public Office for private gain, such
as has been proven IN the case Of Pen
sion Agent Ranm.
It was a condemnation Of the scan

Bureau.

A SPLENDID SUGGESTION.
Fron tAas mornings State Gazette

From tAas HfoTHt1g's State Gazette.
The Jersey City Journal says.-"If
Governor Albeit, Governor Werts-elect,
and the Democratic party of New Jersey
desire to do something which will secure
the approval of the people Of this State,
and go a long way towards atoning for
many Democratic o~ffenses. they will see
to it that when Judge Werts steps out OF
the Judicial into the G~nbernatorial chair,
the vacant seat In the Supreme Court is
given to Judge Lippincott.n We indorse
that. Every fair-minded man In New

has richly earned this promotion and dis

were involved in the overwhelming
condemnation to which the peo-
pie have subjected the Republican
party. But it is sufficient to mention
these few, in passing.
Now, if that party will begin a
process of publication, if it will
weed out the Clarksons, Platts, Car
tiers, Hacketts, Dudleys, Carnegies,
Wanamakers and Reeds, it will enter
upon the path for a return to power,
and it may get there in another
twenty, years. Of course, when it
weeds out its corrupt elements, there
will not be much left, just now; but
with a small nucleous of honesty
even though it be honest error-its
case will not be hopeless.
But the. downfall of the rascals is
final.

g Opera House.

A rollicking farce company is to be
seen in "Aunt Brfdget's Baby" at the
New Opera House all next week. IL is
said to be the sort of play to catch the
popular fancy. George w. Monroe, as
Aunt Bridget. is an amusing actor and
makes much out of his part. His make
up and facial expressions are works Of
art, ard his portrayal of a good-natured
Irish woman of wealth is all that could
be desired. Miss Nellie Rosebud,
as Aunt, Bridget's Baby, is q
charming little actress and certainly fills
the role. She is young, pretty, vivacious,
and easily wins the good will Of an au-
dience. Thomas j. Ryan plays the part
OF Owen Mcfee; he is one Of the nea,est
dancers on the stage. The part of the
old Bosun Mr.. Louis Foy handles with
good Judgment. Miss Lottie Hyde, who
plays the dancing teacher, has a pair of
agile legs, and dances herself into favor.
There are, In fact, many pretty girls in
the company, and with songs, dances and
funny sayings, the play is sure to amuse
all lovers of musical farce comedy.

Women and Dress Literature.

Men should comprehend that women
read descriptions of dress just as men
read the city articles-not for fun but for
business purposes. No woman finds it
particularly amusing to read about styles
and stutfs. but it is intensely interesting
because it is imperatively necessary when
she is going 10 have a new frock or bon
net herself. John Stuart Mill remark ed
that the amount of observation and teflec.
ton that a lady had TO bestow on having
her own and her children's costume ali
that it should be might suffice, it ether
wise applied, to produce really great re-
suits.
This is quite true: and sad enough it
is, when you look at the matter. from the
serious standpoint-that we should have
to waste our time SO utterly. But from
the practical, worldly point Of view, to
consider costumes is by no meaus a waste
OF time. Until we wear a uni
form, every woman who wants to
hold her W socially (and to do
this is the main duty for th
average wonan) must give thought te
make her various a suit her tseo
Sols agree with her purse aud mar q
with the fashion. For these ends Oh
scriptiens OF dresses aud hints on stde-
are eagerly read by wouaen.-Mrs. FeTle

YESTERDAYS papers bore testimony
once more to the deep debt of graft
tude which the people of the State
owe to Leon Albeit. The annual
report of the State Assessors fixes the
railway-tax at almost a million and a
half of dollars. Were it not for the
courage and craftsmanship of the
Governor, not one cent of this money
would go into the Golfers of the State
or it's cities. 1t would be raised by
direct taxation upon the people. III
Governor Abbett's public record were
limited to this one act, he would be
entitled to the warmest gratitude OF
the people and the highest honors
they could confer upon him.
THE most startling feature of Re-
ceiver Butts report upon the condi-
ton of the Eldorado Company, which
we print in another column, is the
discrepancy between the price paid
for the property, and the value at
which the Receiver now appraises it.
1t appears that $338, 1856. 81 vas paid
for what is now worth only $18e, 400.
This means a cool drop of $3.50, 600
just that much money wiped out of
existence on mere depreciation from
cost. That is not what Mr.. Pecksniff
would call a cheerful reflection.

An Open switch Results in y Terrible
Railroad Accident.
MILWAUKEE, March 1.-The Watertown
local train, due in Milwaukee at four
o'clock this afternoon, ran into and de-
mollshed the rear end of a train loaded
with employees of the West Milwaukee
shops of the Chicago, Milwaukee g. ST.
Paul railroad, killing seven men and inlur-
ing several others. The trains were moy-
ing in tue same direction, the workmen's
train having just left the main track on
short switch, and strung itself out on a
track parallel with the main line. Switch-
man Emil Bartel forgot to turn tho switch
alter the Workmen's train. and the local q
moment after passed on the short switch.
and in q minute had telescoped the rear
car. The seven men killed were terribly
mangled. Bartel Disappeared and the
officers started after him. The men killed
were mechanics living in the city. None
OF the local passengers were injured.
The occupants of the coaches, which were
packed with workingmen, had no warning
of impending danger, and in an instant
they we're being ground between the sides
of the overturned coach and ciuder- covered
road bed. Strange to say. besides the
seven unfortunate victims, only one man
was injured, and he but slightly. Bartel
was found this evening and locked up,
