Bob Van Slyck called on a Madison
avenue family, in which there We're
two old maiden sisters of about fifty
years of age. Van Slyck is an old
friend of the family, and one of them

other. Each of you girls looks young

For Governor of New Jersey.

There Is some misrepresentation here
abouts concerning the Democratic situa-
ton In New Jersey. where the State Con-
vention meets next Wednesday.
This arises from the circumstance that
the name OF Mr.. EDWARD +. O.. YOUNG Of
Jersey City still appears frequently in print.
as II he had survived and outlasted all other
possible candidates for Governor.
Mr.. YOUNG is no doubt q worthy gentle
man. and even the Hon. JOHN RoDERIcK
MCPHERSON in quarantine dreams lovingly
OF him; but the State ut large is not pre-
pared to admit the excessive pretensions OF
Hudson county.
There Is a strong probability that such
complication as has been wrought in the
Democratic situation In New Jersey by the
persistent campaign Of some Of the Hudson
county politicians against the good sense
and the common interests Of the whole
party In the State. will easily and salts
factorily be resolved by the nomination. on
Wednesday next at Trenton. OF the Hon.
GEORGE 7. WERTs Of Morris county.
Judge WERTs is not u candidate for the
nomination for Governor. He has written
a letter saying So. That he will withstand
Q general and reasonable demand upon his
services. OF q critical time In the fortunes of
bis party. Is not to be supposed for an in
slant: for Judge WERTs is a Democrat. as
loyal as he Is honest and able.
II he Is nominated no will be elected; and
Hudson county will do its duty.

regular troops. having now and then a re-
cruit on post" Naturally. therefore. the
unexpected field duty at Buffalo,. shortly
after, showed tho sentinels to be alert and
well Instructed, Just as the Homestead ex-
perience showed the good effects OF the
practice ut Mount Gretna. and in both cases
the duty was the most important OF all ior
the security OF life and property.
In discussing the equipment OF the troops
for field service Col. VoLKMAR nnds occa-
sion for several criticisms and suggestions.
IIo observes that in many instances CLOTH
ing, blankets, and other articles should be
renewed. He finds n need Tor n UNIFORM
hat, shirt, and marching shoe for flcld SER
vice. and also for u rubber blanket or
poncho. At Buffalo. in like manner, tho
ncel of n rubber llankotand of better KNAPP
sacks was taught; while II practical khow!-
edge of the details of Che coinmissariat was
found to bo lacking in many regiments.
This last sho.tcoming may be really due to
what In its way is II great merit, namely,
tlr admirable system OF food supply which
nrcvails ut Pcekskill for all the troops.
Nevertheless, il now seems advisable. whilo
continuing the Pcckskill system, that each
regiment should also have at hand its
own supply Of cooking implements, as
we'll rs of tents and medical supplies,
and he able to act independently, If neccs-
sary. in taking the field. Tho artillery
equipment In Pennsylvania was found to hc
most inefficient. the harness being bad aud
almost brittle. aud the guns and carriages
obsolete. A bill is now pending III Con-
grcss. with Il favorable report FROM The
House Committee. to provide new and
better artillery for tho National Guard.
The experience Of the present summer can
hardly fail to be Of great value In tcacliiAs
the authorities of New York. Pennsylvania,
Tennessee, and idaho what their troops re-
o,ire To bring them to the highest eff

carefully studied by all other States.

were not hopelessly committed to the prin-
ciple Of universal Improvement. we should
be tempted to say:
We shall not look upon his like again.
He had the force. fury. and science OF the
fighter In a combination that seemed TO
make h ideal champion. But he was OF
the genus that gets fat. and every year az
ter twenty-five his personal habits hurried
on tho process by which adipose apparent
and hidden ovcrcame tho power OF his
muscles and robbed them of their electrical
activity, until. unable to prepare himself
for great and prolonged physical strain,
he went down at the age OF tlirty-four be-
fore an antagonist as hard rs nails and
trained to tho hour. who will in all proba-
bility he almost as good aud wiry ut forty
as he is to-day. Such was tho fall of SuhL!-
VAN. lc may take tho idea that another
chance with longer preparation will lead
to a different result. Perhaps 50. but tho
new champion will scarcely bn inclined to
hurry himself in SuLLlrAN's direction.
JACKSON ind other incn will first receive
attention. II may be u year before the late
dcfcntcd's turn One round again. and
another year will mako moro difference on
his head thar five on COrN:2rr'S.
Of COKBEIr we said Il day ago that, leav-
ing SULLIVAN out. he was the hest man liv-
ing. barring JACKSON. Now that SULLIVAN
has been taken in. we sNnll have TO let
JACKSON 60 below. and prophcsy that when
the new champion meets the great negro.
the sun Of defeat will set over Africa.

TO learn tariff statistics. and to hear the
harangues OF professors Of tho so-called
science OF political economy. They will not
road tho tons of tariff trcatises sent
put by tho tariff committees. Why should
they? The newspapers are at hand, and
they are interesting reading. What man
who can buy The Sun for two cents Is GO
ing to try to fix his attention on such
dreary campaign literature? Ninc-tcnths
Of the whole product OF these literary bu-
cauX goes from tho Post Office to tho paper
mill. or Is put TO immediate service in
wrapping up bundles. 1t is left unread.
The great mass of tho people will go into
this political campaign as into Il contest. II
battle. in which they range themselves on
opposing sides from pure partisan passion.
or they will not enter into il with any
spirit. II this country We're really suffer-
ing from an alarming economic disease,
and il tho people were struggling with dire
poverty from causes political or which
they believed to be political. they
might be aroused to excitement by n con-
test over tho business policy of the Gov
ernmcnt; but. with the situation prosper
Gus as 1t Is now, attempts to stir thcm 10
activity by such a contest must be futile.
Tho Democratic people must he aroused
by nm appeal to their party spirit. They
must be stirred up by appealing to their
devotion to Democratic principle. They
| must feel that they are battling FOR the life
| of their party. not merely FOR u dispntcd
| theory of political economy. They must DO
rallied to the contest by tried party lead
crs and by tho old cries which have awak-
cncd them SO often. Put mono but Demo-
Gratis on guard! That is the watchword for
this campaign. Democratic principles
| Of government and Democratic principles
only must be the rallying cry. Tariff trea-
tiscs are for the college room, not for the
open field OF n great popular controversy.
| The people must feel that they are battling
for the political championship.
Such a cry the Democracy have In this
campaign. 1t is, No Force bill. No Negro
Domination! Those are tho colors under
which to win. Every Democrat is ready to
fight under them.

The Championship Colors.

When the popular interest Is really
aroused 1t Is not diflcult to discover the
fact; and long experience shows that there
is nothing Like q square fight to produce
that result.
On Wednesday night the scenes about the
bulletin boards in Printing House square
announcing the progress OF the SULLIVAN
and CoRBETT fight recalled the excitement
when a great battle was raging during the
OWL war. Throughout the town and
throughout the Union tho feeling was the
same. Everybody shared in it.
Moralizers may say that 1t ought not to
be 30. but it Is so. and it will continue to DO
20 as long as vigor remains in the race OF
men. When men cease to be aggressive.
destructive. combative, and to love battle.
the progress Of the world will stop.
This instinct and this quality of the race
Is necessary for its preservation In the con-
slant struggle with material forces and in
the competitions OF men with men in the
fight for advancement. Life Is Il battle al
ways. Thatis why the whole world watches
with breathless excitement a tight like that
at New Orleans on Wednesday evening. It's
typical OF tho universal struggle for mas
tershlp over the powers OF nature. and the
obstacles to improvement. At the bottom,
the physical force in man is one OF his most
valuable possessions. The perpctuation OF
the race depends on ii. and it is the founda-
ti0n on which is build"d his most useful
and most enduring intellectual and even
spiritual achievements,
This great fight now over, the pconle are
now prepared to turn their thoughts 10 the
political contest without further Gistrac-
ton. unless. as nov seems improbable, the
cholera shall absorb their attention AS n
dreadful visitor that has actually Obtained
Judgment on our shores. That danger de.
creaseS as every day passes by, and the
alarm as to it grows less and Icss even
among the nervous and timoruus. The
people feel more confidence every day that
We shall keep out the imported pc-i.lcnce.
and there is reason for their assulancc.
Therefore. from this time forth III" uu!itf-
cal excitement ought to Increase steadily
until the day Of election. but that it may
grow and extend. tho managers of the
Democratic campaign must learn what
really interests the Democratic people. A
"campaign OF education" about which we
have heard so much. does not interest them.
They do not want to 90 to a political school

1892.

Up to tho time OF the outbreak OF cholera
In Western Europe. the immigration OF the
year had bcen very great. beyond that OF any
other seven months in our country's his
tory. From January to July there arrived
at our ports 4O3. lat storage passengers.
and besides these. there came by way OF
Canada as many moro newcomers as are
needed to run the total up to n half
million. It is altogether probable that. but
for the partial blockade OF our ports that
has Just been established. the immigration
OF the year would nave been ever higher
than that Of 1881, when 1t was 7SS. 300.
The measures that have been taken to re-
strict tho incoming steerage passengers will
be enforced during the remaining months of
the year. and will very surely be continued
through the next year. or as long as there Is
danger that the cholera or other plague nay
be brought here. Thus the volume Of i'm
migration will be cut down. for some time
at least, in an unexpected way, and for rea-
Sons that are grievous indeed. The %restrlc-
ton itself, however. apart from the grounds
Of 1t, Is exceedingly desirable. We have got
this year hundreds OF thousands Of the most
undesirable kinds Of immigrants that ever
came to the United States. people who do
0OC C6k0 up luuu luz luTluluS put pooco' Wv
are unfamiliar with the skilled industries.
who are untitled for the pursuits that are
advantageous to our American community.
who are In q state Of deplorable impover-
ishment, who do not possess the intelli-
gence required for American citizenship.
and who have oeen demoralized by ages OF
despotism and degradation. 1t is well that
some bars should be put up against the in
discriminate immigration Of people Of this
kind. millions upon millions of whom are
now DESTROYS OF rushing to this country.
All through last session Of Congress We
strove to secure the adoption Of an effective
measure for the regulation OF immigration.
Both the Senate and the House resisted all
the pressure that was brought to bear upon
them for this purpose. refused to take
action upon any Of the bills that were in
troduced by members interested in the
subject. and neglected tho business that
was OF more importance than almost any
other that could be taken up.
Perhaps next winter we may get the legis-
lation that has been SO long delayed.

Tho bark Snlina. which has returned to
ihtladelrhin from Ivigtut on the southwest
coast OF Greenland. confirms the previous re-
r"r's TINT this has been n season OF unusually
heavy ice in the far north. The bark was leo
hound from early in juno to Aug. IA. and Capt.
PATTERSON expresses tho opinion that tho
PeAEl party will not be able to leave their
camp at Mccormick Day this season. and that
the rciief steamer Kite had not been able to
force her way through the ice fields.
The inference which Capt. PETERSON draws
from his own experience is not at all war
rahted. Because II sailing vessel has not been
ahlo to push her way through the ice foes. IL
does MT follow that n stout Arctic steamer
Ike the Kite would be defeated by the same
obstacles. or course We do not know how
greatly the difficulties OF navigation might hs
Increased 10y an abundance OF
foes and thickness OF ice. But no conditions
OF ic" have ever yet been encountered Ia Davis
