"A horse and wagon belonging to SLOT
toff Brothers, the well dril.ers, of Elem.
ington Junction, were taken from the
sheds in the rear of Peter l. Nevius' store
on Thursday night last. William Stothoff
had driven over TO town early in the even
ing and put his rig under the shed. When
he was ready to return home, an hour or
so later, he found some one hal driven
away with his horse and wagon. He at
once took active measures to recover his
property, sending tclegiams in various
directions, and going himself some dis
lance in hope of getting on track of the
thief. No tidings were heard that night,
but Friday evening he received word from
Jacob Dilts, Jr. of Ringoes, that he ha |
found the horse ard wagon in the road
near his place, and had taken care of them.
1t is thought the person who took the
horse wished TO go in the direction OF Rim
goes, and "borrowed' the rig TO save him
self long walk. II discovered, it will
prove dear ride for him H,tnterdon

SUBMITTING GRACEFULLY.

Senator Terhune, of Monmouth, says in
manly fashion that he was beaten at the
election and that he is willing to abide by
the result. He does not take any stock
in the proposal to overturn the will OF the
people he ause OF the frightful crime CON-
mitted by Bradley 10 giving away some
scrubbing brushes, with an exhortatiou
to work forhis candidacy printed on them.
Neither does he think that the voters of
Monmouth County were bought because
some children were given ten.cent pieces
for learning some OF the songs COM
posed for duty during the campaign
by the well meaning doggerel bards of
Bradley's following. Senator Terhune
shows his good sense by discountenancing
the insane propos ii to steal the Senate by
robbing the people of his county of their
right to choose Senator.
Another Democratic Senator who has
shown the same fair and honest spirit is
Mr. Winton, of Bergen, distinguished rs
the only Senator of his party who voted
against the Coal Combine bill, and as one
of the few who opposed the race-track
gambling license legislation. He is the
editor of the Bergen County Democrat,
ohb IL % ASNShb ioouO VI bhoe PapNif hioSho-
sing the proposal to steal the seat Of SeDa
tor Hoffman, OF Atlantic County, he said:
II will be remembered that after an ex-
haustve investigation in the case it was
found that Hoffman, Republican, had a
majority of the votes cast In Atlantic
County for State Senator, and that Mr..
Riddle, the Democratic contestant, had
not. With strict impartlaity taking the
case simply on its merits, the Democratic
Senate turned down the Democratic con-
testant and maintained the right of his ad-
versary to his seat by vote OF II to 8.
The Democratic Senators who have had
the spirit to give their assent to the sub
mission TO the will of the people before
waiting 10 find out whether or not there
may be some way to thwart that will, are
deserving of credit and honor for the
stand they have taken. So are the Demo
cratic newspapers which have taken like
position before waiting to find out whether
or not there may be some way to cheat
the people out Of the results Of the cleo
ton in which for the best of good reasons
about is, 600 Democrats voted for Repub-
lean candidates. -Ne,Odrk EUening Mems

On last Saturday week, on the Erie
canal, at Rochester, N. Y, electricity was
fist used as the motive power on \ canal
boat. Governor Flower and many other
distinguished visitors were passengers on
the boat and interested spectators of the
important and successful experiment.
The boat carried 10 tons besides its h1-
man freight, and moved with a speed of
a. miles an hour. This trial trip shows
that electricity will be an economical mo-
tive power for canals. 1t will doubtless
soon supersede the mule on the Erie canal,
and will be furnished from Niagara Falls as
socn as the water power there is available.
An experiment is soon 10 be made at a
Wyoming colliery with electricity as a
motor in drawing the cars in the mines.
II successful, as it doubtless will be,
the mine mule and canal mule can revel
in green pastures together hereafter.

Colorado is beginning to think that the
defeat of silver was blessing in disguise.
A committee of business mcu organized
to advertise Colorado in the East and Eur
ope has decided 'to concentrate the first
effort in advertising the gold resources Of
the State" 1t is now pointed out that the
State has more wealth in gold than 10 sill
yer, and that ''ihere is gold enough to
supply labor for all the silver miners and
TO restore the old.time prosperity" Al.
ready the gold boom has been strongly
felt, and whit were mere prospects have

1t is said that State Comptroller Hep
penheimer will not vacate his office if the
Republican Legislature this Winter shall
take the appointing power in its hands
and elect bis successor, but that he will
carry the matter to the Court of Errors
upon the ground that the Legislature is
an illegal body, not having been CHOSEN
by Constitutional methods. But. Mr..
Heppenheimer will hardly have much OF
case. II the next Legislature is an IL
legal body, the Legislature which gave
him an official existence was also an ileg-
al body, for that was chosen in precisely
the same way. What is sauce for the
goose, even in such matters, ought TO be
sauce for the gander.

The Essex County Republican Members
of Assembly held meeting on Friday, TO
discuss certain matters Of legislation to be
brought up this Winter. Among other
things they propose to make number.of
changes in the ballot reform law the fol-
lowing being specially named:
That hereafter no official ballots shall
be distributed outside of the polling plac-
es.
That the non .partizin County Board OF
Registry shall have charge Of the printing
and distribution of the official ballots in
stead of the County Clerk.
That there shall be but one ballot, that
containing the names OF all the candidates
of all parties.
That the use of pastors shall be prohib.
tied.
That the house toulouse canvass shall
be abandoned, and that after the first day
OF the registration all persons desiring to
register shall do so in person.
That the last day OF registration shall
not be less than two weeks prior 10 the
election.
the multiplicity of ballots and print the
names Of all candidates on one set of tick.
cts, 1t is urged by them that this will
greatly reduce the cost OF election and
will eliminate almost every possibility OF
fraud. Some say the ticket should be a
genuine Australian ballot on which the
names OF all candidates are grouped by
offices without distinction as TO politics.
Others think the names should be group
ed by parties, and for the benefit of those
who cannot read. symbols should be
printed over each group. The person de-
string te vote a straight party ticket would
then be required merely to place cross
by the symbol of the ticket he dcsired TO
vote. II desiring to make an exception
of one or more candidates on the ticket
he would indicate the candidates in the
other groups whom be desired to vote for
by placing crosses by their names.

Last Wednesday, about p. NJ, a fire
broke out in the packing room of Mann's
paper mill in this city, and before it cosld
be exlinguished, damage to the amount
OF six hundred dollars or more had been
done. The fire is supposed to have orig
mated from loose match accidentally
dropped among the paper. 1t is not
known positively how it started. Several
girls were working in the room at the
time and the flames and smoke greatly
alarmed them. Some of them had to get
out without their wraps. The fire was
put out without the assistance of the fire
department, which, however, was prompt
ly on hand. No special damage was done
to the building.
