have the sanction of the Central Com
mittee to start with. The machine
may be as rotten as Hades, but 1T re,
mains the regular" party oFganiza-
ton; il controls the title and the sue
cession. You may hate it, you may
kick it, you may plot its death, but it
possesses the sole germ of legitimism,
and there is no getting away from it.
But, in the second place, it is
equally certain it is dead for all use
full purposes. No movement in which
it has any part can win the public
confidence or bring success to the
party. 1t is discredited and disgraeed
and doomed to die the death, 1t is
somewhat in the situation of q king
imprisoned by an insurgent people
for high crimes and misdemeanors. 1t
can do no more itself. 1t a merely,
Wy an act of abdication, transmit the
seeptre to a new and better ruler.
So much for the first elements in
Mr.. Winield's plan.
The cardinal point in the actual
reorganization plan is the postpone
ment OF a resort to primary elections
for year. This, granted once, the
regular party succession, we most
heartily endorse. An appeal to the
voters now, Il is greatly to be feared,
would prove barren and fruitless. 1t
is doubtful ifany steps could be taken
which would bring out the general
body Of Democratic voters to the
primary polls+ 1t must be remember
ed that the test of having voted the
Democratic ticket in the last State
election weuld exclude thousands of
the very flower of the party.
But the heelers would be there.
'Bobn Davis, and Billy Cook, and
Johnny Madden, and John 2. Dunno,
and Fred Mersheimer, and Christie
Smith, and Captain John F. Kelly,
and Henry Byrne, and all the rest of
the gang would be out in force. Well,
rather. They would marshal the
public employees whom they still con
troll under threats and compulsion to
vote Bob back into control OF the
new machine. OF course, the policy
dealers, the green goods men and the
dive keepers would rally to the sup
port of the Little Jailer,n and by the
time the polls closed you would have
Davis back again in full control of the
machine, and your reorganization and
reform would be a sham and a pre-
tence.
Any reasonable man can see all this
at a glance. The result of primary
elections now is almost a ~foregone
conclusion. The gang always turns
out and nobody else eve does.
So we hope to see Mr.. Winfield's
plan adopted in one shape or another,
and the simplest and directest is the
best. Perhaps Mr.. Winfield himself
may think well of coupling it with the
State convention idea. At any rate,
we are more than glad to see a man of
Mr.. Winfield's stamp taking an active
part in this reorganization work.
Those who remember the winfield
Wallopersn know how much the
Democratic party in Hudson owes to
their author. Mr.. Winfield gave the
Democracy for a while the only clean
and efficient organization it has had
in this county within the memory OF
man. What he has done once, per-
he may be able to do again. Let us
hope SO anyway.

In Committee They Are Very Generous to
the Worlds Fair.
WASHINGTON. Feb. A. The senate
committee on appropriations has dealt
literally with the worlds fair. There
is no doubt about the appropriations go
ing through the senate, but when the
bill goes back TO the house the fight
will be on, and some of the items may
be cut down in the encounter. For the
government exhibit the committee re-
ports $2,001, ,750, of which $4,000 may
be used for clerk hire and $50, 900 are to
be Immediately available. Ten thou
sand dollars are appropriated for special
expenses. For the worlds Columbian
commission the committee reports an
appropriation of $2S6, ,375, of which $685.
1870 shall be used for the board of lady
managers, and $4,000 of this last sum
is made available and sum not
exceeding $1,000 may be used
by the director general, in his discre-
ton, for incidental and contingent ex-
penses of his office. And there is pro-
vision that $4,000 of this amount shall
be furnished in twenty-hve-cent sDuve-
mir coins to the board Of lady man
ayers. For judges and examiners and
the granting of awards the committee
reports an appropriation of SIC, 300, of
which $4,000 shall be Immediately
available, and $t00, 900 of the total is to
be devoted to the payment of Jurors
and members of committees to be ap-
pointed by the board of lady managers
OF the appropriation of the worlds
Columbian commission, the ladies are
to get $9S, 900, instead of S93, 900, and Of

OIL Fields.
TOLEDO, Feb. 13.-There is consider
Rble excitement in the oil fields over an
other big gusher which was drilled in
Saturday afternoon, in what was sup
posed to be dry territory. The well is
ON the Hoagland farm, in Middletown
township, twenty miles south of To
ledo. 1t is flowing over 1000 barrels a
day and can not be shut in. The oil is
running all over the country. The
pressure is so strong nothing can be
done to save it. No tankage had been
placed, as the prospectors did not ex-
pect much of a well.
A well almost as great was drilled in
Saturday a few miles south of this
point. These wells extend the field to
an extent sufficient to keep the drill
going all the summer.
