ingalls,: The publication of politics
is an iridescent dream. Government is
force. Politics is battle for suprema-
cy. Parties are the armies. The Dec
alogue and the golden rule have no
place in political campaign. The OBJ
Ject is success. To defeat the antapo-
MIST and expel the party in power IS the
purpose. The republicans and demo-
Gratis are as irrecOncilably opposed to
each other as were Grant and Lee in the
Wilderness. They use ballots instead
OF guns, but the struggle is as unrelent-
ing and desperate and the result sought
FOR Is the same. In war it is lawful to
deceive the adversary, to hire Hessians.
TO purchase mercenaries, to mutilate
to destroy. The commander who loses
battle through the activity of his NOR

For April, the fruit trees, but especially
the apple tree. For May, box alder.

wood or linden, and Japan catalpa For
August, wild China. Some of these

CARLYLE HARRlS'S BAH.
An Incident of the Proceedings for Liquor
Selling at Asbury Park


Special 10 the JERSEY Cft0 Ne,cs.
FREEHOLD. March 16, S92.-Applica-
tiou has been made Co the Judges of the
Monmouth County Courts for rule to
show cause why the bail in the case of
Carlyle w. Harris should not be dis
charged.
The application was made by Lawyer
r. Tenbroeck Stout, of Asbury Park,
who is both counsel and bondsman for
Harris.
The latter was the proprietor of no.
torious drinking and gambling den in
Asbury Park, known as the Neptune
Club. The summer before. it is alleged,
he poisoned his girl wife, Mary Helen
Nelson Potts Harris, at the Chase Select
School In New York.
After the club was raided, Harris rela-
tives secured bonds for him. These bonds
were declared forfeited because Harris
did not appear here TO answer to an in
dictment found against him for Keeping a
disorderly house. These bonds were
afterwar9 reinsrated, upon Counsellor
Stout's application. Mr.. Stout bases his
present action upon the claim tnat Har-
ris was really in charge of the State of
New Jersey when he was taken into GUS
todv in New York and locked up upon
the cnarge of wife murder.
