Deaths.

Mrs. Blanche Rich, wife OF Hub
bard w. Rich, and daughter of Capt.
B. 8. Rich, died suddenly at her
home in Willimantic, Connecticut, on
Wednesday. July 18th, aged 20 years.
The suddenness of her death render
ed 1t impossible for some of her near
er and most loving friends to be at
her bedside.
The following notice appears in the
Willimantic daily Chronicle, OF 18th
inst:
Yesterday afternoon the funeral of
Mrs. n. W. Rich occurred at her late
residence. 81 Spring street, Rev. O..
w. Scott officiating. Many sympa-
thizing friends gathered to pay the
last tributes OF honor and affection
to the dead. Among those present
from out of town were R. W. Harding
and Miss Addie E.. Rich, the brother
in law and the sister, from Accolnac
county, Va. and Mrs. D. Rich, the
mother-in. law, from Guildhall, VT.
Mrs. Rich was the daughter Of
Capt. B. S. Rich, superintendent of
the life saving service of the 9th dis
trict. She was comparative strang-
er in this city, but those who came
to known her best testify to her high
moral and Christian character. Her
sudden death at the age of 20 years
and months brought about e sense
OF grievous loss to her circle Of
friends.

Letters From sho People.

EDITOR NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. al
low me space to say, that the name
OF Dr.lJ. E. Brodwater will be pre-
scented to the people Of Accomack, as
candidate for the House of Dele
gates, subject, of course, to the plan
that may be adopted by the party
for selecting candidates.
The next General Assembly will be
one of supreme Importance to the
citizens of this State; the election
of the five judges for our supreme
Court of Appeals, whose terms of Of
flee are for twelve years, being of suf-
ficient importance to create the de-
sire that our Legislature may be
composed OF the best material we
can get to serve us. The election Of
two United States Senators-an I'M
usual occurrence-one to fill the un-
expired term of the late Senator Bar
bour, and one for the full term, calls
for men that can appreciate the im-
portant trust imposed in them, and
can rise above intrigue and chican-
cry, thinking only of the interests Of
their State and the wide influences
resulting from their work.
To eulogize. or attempt to intro
duce DR.. Brodwater to the people OF
Accomack, would be superfiuous.
His devotion to duty and alertness
on all occasions for the interests Of
his people during his last service in
the Legislature, is sufficient index
for the future, should the people
deem it proper to return him.
A FRIEND.

WEDNESDAY, SEPT. 6, 1893.

Tho moral people Of New Jersey have
duty to do this Fall that should at once
claim their attention. The action OF Il Q
legislatures of 1912 and 1928, has been
disgrace to honesty, morals and politics,
and IL there is any manhood left in the
people of New Jersey, they will at the
coming Fall election set the seal of their
condemnation on every member who vot-
ed for the twin infant es-the coal.com-
bine and race track bills.
II is commonly reported that in addi-
ton TO big pay for their votes, the mem
bers who voted for the race-track bills
were pledged assistance in their canvass
for re. election. Now it remains to be
seen whether the people are going to con-
sent to this bargain or not. II they are
not, it is time that some concerted move
ment were made TO bring the pressure OF
the moral sentiment of the people against
the bride. taking scoundrels who voted to
open the f1oor-tides of temptation to the
unwary, and encourage the fleeing of the
many for the enrichment of Billy Thomp-
son and his hangers-on.
A question of morals, such as this,
should receive attention from the pulpit,
and the people should be shown the evil
effects resulting from legalized gambling
and its attendant immoralties.

The Review of Reviews for September
is number of fine variety and timeliness.
1t epitomizes and synchronizes the whole
planet for the month OF August, 1893. 1t
discusses the monetary crisis, the silver
debate, the tariff outlook, the Behring Sea
decision, the French attack on Siam, the
progress OF the Home Rule bill, the poll
tics of the European continent, various
matters at Chicago and the Worlds Fair
and hundred other timely subjects, the
whole number being profusely Illustrated
with portraits and pictures. A sketch OF
Engineer Ferris and bis great wheel is a
ullrly readable and attractive article,
and Mr.. Stead contributes a most note.
worthy character sketch of Lady Henry
Somerset There is an illustrated review
Of the fascinating story OF Joan of Arc,
the inspired Maid of Orleans and group
of papers on the silver question by pro-
fessors in the University OF Chicago.
The Leading Articles of the Month" are
notably well selected while the "Record
of Current Events" gives one summary
day by day of of the remarkable course
OF the recent monetary crisis, and the car
toon reproductions in the "CHrrent HIS
tory in Caricaturen are uncommonly en-
tertaining.
Professor Edward w. Bemis, of the
University of Chicago, has spent part of
his summer In Colorado, and writes for the
September number OF the Reviews of Re
Viet0s very careful and readable,
though somewhat statistical article on the
silver situation in that State. Mr.. Bemis
is 10 decided sympathy with the so called
Western view of the silver question, and
his article will be read with much inter-
est throughout the great mining States
and Territories. 1t should be said that
this article OF DR.. Bemis is Offset by a
very remarkable anti-silver letter to the
vtzTttys-
the distinguished scholar, Professor H.
Won Hoist who was brought to the Uni
versiiy OF Chicago from one OF the lead
ing German universities as the great au.
thority on American constitutional aud
political history. Won Hoist has strong,
almost savage style and his onslaught on
the silver heresy is terrific. 1t is an arti-
Gle which will attract wide attention
whether one agrees with 1t or not. Prof.
]. Laurence Laughlin is the highest eco.
nomic and monetary authority in the Chi
ca University aud he also writes to the
editor of the Reeicao of Revies0s letter on
silver and our money problem, which is
entitled 10 close attention.

Senator Vance of North Carolina,
made storing speech in the U. S. Senate
last week, on the silver side OF the money
question. The following extract contains
food for thought:
The great law OF supply and demand
operates in regard TO money. When
money is abundant, prices are high; when
1t is scarce the prices OF all products are
low. The effect upon the condition of
mankind which would follow the destrnc-
ton OF one. half the currency Of the world
amounting in the aggregate to 81, SOC,
00O, 000-it would beimpossible accurately
TO describe. Still, this process OF destruc-
ton has been going on quietly since 1872,
and its result is seen IN prices lower than
was ever before known 10 the memory of
man.
II coinage shall stop here, will silver
cease to live Throughout the commercial
nations OF the earth7 The repeal of the
law without any substitute means the end
Of silver money for this generation, unless
arevolution OF the people should restore
1t, as 1t did after the fraudulent demone-
tization In 1878. Let no man doubt that
this movement for the repeal OF the Sher-
man act is the result of a conspiracy
among the money-hclders Of the world.
Our own Secretary of the Treasury has
said so. 1t has been repeatedly announc-
ed In the British House of Commons and
nowhere denied that the intent OF this COM
bination is to increase the value OF the
gold In the hands of those who hold 1t,
and increase the value of all securities by
making them payable in gold.

Restriction OF Immigration.

The Cincinnati Times. Star, in we'll
considered article, calls for severe rcstrc-
tion on immigration, aud among other
things forlihesits views with the following.
II says:
notwithstanding the fact that public
improvements throughout the country
have practically come to a standstill, that
railroad building is paralyzed, that the
wheels Of many factories have ceased to
revolve, that the number Of wage earners
out OF employment In consequence is
constantly swelling, and now reaches be-
yond million, the stream of undesirable
immigrants continues TO steadily flow into
the country.
"Every one of them who now lands in
any of the United States ports of entry is
a menace to the nottingham. There is
nothing for them to do. They cannot be-
come producers, for there is no opportun-
continue TO come to share the meagre and
rapidly diminishing loaf left to Americas
wage-earners. Every one Of them is like
ly to contribute towards increasing next
winters sufferings of those who are al
ready here. Why not then stop the in
fiux and stop abrurtlya
We believe the public MUD of the
country is rapidly settling in this direc-
ticn, and that the time will come and in
the near future, when such change will
be made in our immigration laws as will
keep cut the undesirable immigrants that
now pour in by the thousands. The late
attempted riot by 5000 aliens in New
York, and similar disturbance elsewhere,
is foretasto of what will come unless this
class of immigrants be kept out. Dog

mise not to try for a second. Now,
without the ghost of a show for
third term, "whatever errors he may
commit will not grow out of sub
serviency to party bossism." On the
other hand, Mr.. Cleveland's position
eight years ago was in many respects
more desirable than it is to-day.
Neither the currency question nor
the tariff question was one of great
importance then. Now while these
questions are of supreme moment,
Cleveland has to act with his party
divided on both Of them. Eight
years ago there were no foreign com
plications. To-day the Behring Sea
and Hawaiian questions have to be
faced for decisive and final action.
The Tribune concludes, in view of
the great issues confronting Cleve-
land at the outset of his administra-
ton, that he would be wise if he call
ed an extra session of Congress. This
the latest news intimates he is not
going to do, However, the com
parison between the two periods
drawn by the Tribune is interesting
as a standing point from which to
take in the procession of American
politics moving past, guided by the
now experienced hand of President
Cleveland.
