sLEDGE-HAMMER ANARCHY.


Miss Shaw, in her Saturdsy-night
speech, raised a laugh by her refer
enOe 10 the ignorance Of Kansas re-
publiCans in their constant references
to anarchy and socialism as one and
the same thing. The two PHILOSOPHERS
are as wide apart as the north and
south poles, yet Kansas republicans
do not even regard them as twin
nightmares; they think Of them as
one and the same hobgoblin.
Philosophical anarchy has its
thought upon that perfected state Of
society where individuals are 80 sub
limated and so unselfsh as TO need
no written law to prevent them
from treSpassing upon the rights OF
others-very pretty as a theory and
an ideal to work toward, but very un-
attainable, save through the method,
the order and the discipline Of social
combination, and Of those agreed
upon rules OF conduct which we cali
laws. But as different as clear sum
light from black night is this philo-
sophioal anarchy from the popular
misConCeption of the term. Popular
ignorance has confounded anarchy
with bomb-throwing, and it is not at
all worth while at this time TO de-
tend or to attempt to rescue the word
from its ignorant misuse. So let
popular prejudice have it's way. This
Is no time for fne-spun theories. Let
us treat Kansas republicans from the
standpoint Of their own enliRhten-
ment. Let anarchy mean ruthless
disregard of the rights of others. Let
it mean just such usurpatlon and
brigandsge as the republican party
has praCticed for years. Let 1t mean
just such thwarting Of the ends Of
just government IS their party in-
trigueing has carried on. Let it
mean the seizure OF Legislatures and
the enactment Of statutes dictated by
corporations. Let it mean sledge-
hammers and broken state-house
doors; and then let us go forward
with renewed determination to con-
tinue TO protect Kansas from the an
srchy and misrule Of republicanism.

this platform in 1890, on January rs,
1891, adopted the following resolu-
tions with only three dissenting votes:
WH1REAs, The recent aCt of the senate Of
the United States in promptly passing che
free coinage Of silver bill, ia q move in the
direction Of q restoration Of prices and
prosperity 10 the agricultural industry;
therefore, be IL
Resolved, That the senate of Kansas urge
upon the national house of representatives
prompt concurrence in the passage Of the
senate silver bill; and that this body, repre-
senting the republicans Of Kansas, respect
fully bus earnestly request our delegation
in congress TO insist, in the interest of the
country and the welfare Of the republican
party in The wess, upon the passage of the
bill and its approval by the republican ex-
eCusive, as being in line with republican
pledges.
Resolved, That Che secretary Of the senate
is hereby instructed TO transmit copy of
shese resolutions TO each member Of the
Kansas delegation in congress-
Adopted, Jan. q, 1S9l.-(SenRte Journal,
page 179.
How do these declarations COM
port with the meaningless jsrgon
adopted at the late republican con-
vention relating to the silver ques-
tion9 What has caused this degen-
eracy? Can the politicians or the
press explain to the people of this
state why the republican party Of
Kansas dare not to. day favor the free
coinage Of silver as it did in 1873 and
in 1890 and 1917 Can they explain
why they favored 1t then? Let us
hear from you, gentlemen. You have
the floor for the explanation.
But the financial policy of the re-
publican party IN 1873 and as late as
1890 did not stop with the demand
for the free coinage Of silver. The
platform of 1890 contained this plank
also:
We favor such other legislation as may be
necessary to secure an increase of the vol
ume Of currency adequate TO the growing
demands Of our trade; the volume Of suOh
currency TO be regulated BY the necessities
Of business.
Do we hear anything now about an
increase in the currency? On the
other hand, the continuance of the
demo-republicsn conduct of public
affairs has SO paralyzed every indus
try that we have no growing demand
of trade" and the party that has
ruined trade now desires to accom-
modate itself and the people to the
condition it has created by denying
such an increase Of currency as
would tend to revive trade and bet
ter the condition of the people.
In 1878 the republican state plat
form declared:
That as the greenbaCk currency, Origi-
mated by the BRAIN and maintained By the
blood Of the republican party, has proved
10 be the cheapest, safest and most con-
venienb medium Of exchange Tor the peo-
pie, we declare ourselves in favor Of q re-
peal Of the national banking laws, and q
substitution therefor Of the currency issued
By the government, and demand that it be
issued in sufficient volume to fully accom-
modGte the wants of business, and that il

They Had a Successful Ladies, Re-
ception Last Night.
The new year opened auspiciously for the
Scottish-American Athletic Club. Its mem
bers had a pleasant day on Monday, and
last evening they gave a reception to the
ladies which was the most successful given
by the organization. The only drawback
was the lack of room for dancing,
as over a hundred couples partici-
pated in the charming event. The
hall was tastefully decorated with bunting
and Illuminated by japanese lanterns Re
freshments were served at midnight, but the
guests were having such a jolly time that
the hour of closing was changed and it was
two o'clock this morning before the strains
of Home, Sweet Home" were heard. The
committee deserves praise for its admirable
arrangements. 1t consisted of D.. Griffin,
chairman; Arthur WEIGH, Neil j. Smith,
William Ainsworth and William Musson,

A GOOD
AriOn Club Members Contributing t o
Relieve the Poor.

AriOn Club Members Contributing to
Relieve the Poor.
Mr.. Fred Kuehne, a member of the Arion
Club of the Heights, bas started a subscrip-
ton among the members of the club for the
purpose of alternating the sufferings of the
deserving poor of Jersey City. The subscrip-
ton reads as follows:-
1--WE hereby pledge ourselves to give not
less than twenty-five cents per week each for
the months of January, February and
March, 1894, to be distributed among
the poor of Jersey City in such
a way as the following commit
tee may see ft.n-Signed, Walter Wirth,
Emil p. Mehl, c. 7. Stork, Fred Kuehne.
The subscription has only been in existence
since last Friday, and Mr.. Kuehne has got
over fifty names upon the list and has col
lected over sixty dollars. A great many of
the subscribers paid the whole amount down.
The committee has not yet positively de-
cided just what they will do with the money
when they get enough to give away, but it
was said upon good authority that The Lady
Arions, a charitable organization organized
especially for the purpose of helping the
poor, would receive half of the money and
Poormaster Hewitt the other half.

THE EIGHTH 1904 DOLLAR FOUND.

PHILADELPHIA, Jan. 8, 1894-The belief
that only seven of the 1904 silver dollars
were in existence has been an error, for the
eighth one has turned VI. Rosenthol Broth
ginia from whom they tried vainly for some
time to collect a bill of $500. Recently the
Virginian sent the firm one of the much
sought for 1904 dollars. He stated that he
sent the coin in payment of his bill, and if
the Rosenthols could sell it for more than
the total of the account they could keep the
balance. In explanation of how he came in
possession of the dollar the Virginian wrote
that he had bought it for $50 from an old
negro, who was ignorant of its rarity and
value and in whose family it had been for a
long time. The R%osenthols took the dollar
uine. A coin collector has offered them $3.50
for the dollar, but they refused the offer, as
at an auction sale of coins here one of the
1904 dollars sold for 81, 900.

HPoINT OF ROCKS FIGHT AGAIN.


Order in Clhancery Today Pleasing to
Both Parties.
Vice Chancellor Van Fleet stopped the
work Of tunneling under the Pennsylvania
Railroads tracks at the Point of Rocks this
morning because while the workmen of the
National Docks Company were digging out
the earth large portions of the same were
falling down the embankment onto the
company's tracks. The Vice Chancellor had
previously allowed the injunction of the
National Docks Company to issue restraining
the Pennsylvania Company from interfering
with the construction operations of
the former company's road at
the point mentioned. In accordance
with the Vice-Chancellor's order the
work previously delayed by the restraining
order, was resumed. During its progress
the earth fell onto the Pennsy Company's
tracks down the embankment. Then the
Pennsylvania people kicked. Counsellor
James B. Vredenburg, representing that
corporation, appealed to the Vice Chancell or
for a modification of the injunction.
This afternoon the y-ice-chancellor, sitting in
Chancery Chambers, heard Counselors Vre-
denburg and Charles L. Corbin, who repre-
sents the National Docks Company. After
listening to the recital of the Pennsy's woes
the Court consented to change the injunction
to the effect that the National Docks
Company while tunneling under the other
company'S tracks must use what is known as
sheet piling. This, it was said, prevents the
fall of earth. The modification made, coun-
sci left the court in the pleasing and novel
position of having rendered a decision APP
parently agreeable to both sides.

HoBoKEN MEMoRIALDAY NURSERY.
The Work of this Institution the Past
Xaar-

Rt4Es
One of the best charitable organizations of
Hoboken is the Memorial Day Nursery,
which is located at No. 230 Willow avenue.
Miss Rebecca A. Julien, the Secretary, in
her tenth annual report, says that the
nursery was opened in 1888, and during the
past ten years its motherly care has pro-
tected over twenty thousand, six hundred
children, 1878 having found a home within
its walls since October, 1892. The benefits
thus derived by the working classes can be
easily understood by every one. TIL nursery
is entirely unsectarian. Children of parents
of all denominations and of every nationality
are admitted to its be~neits-girls, from in
fants to ten years of age, and boys to eight
years of age.
Parents are charged ten cents per day for
the care of one child, and five cents for
every additional child.
School children both girls and boys) not
over the ages given above, will be provided
with dinners every school day at five cents
for every meal.
A false impression having gained ground,
namely. that the Sisters of the Poor of all
Saints of the Holy Innocents P. E. Church,
had direct supervision and control OF the
nursery, the managers take occasion to cor
rect such impression. They say:-"The
our city simply direct worthy m to the
Nursery, as a home where they can leave
their children during the day, under the
kind care of the matron, while they are en-
gagged in their daily work. This is the only
connection between the work of the Sisters
and that of the Memorial Day Nursery"
Anyone at all acquainted with affairs in
Hoboken is aware of the good work of the
Nursery. This knowledge should urge them
to contribute to its support. The lady mana
gers appeal to the public as follows
18th rapid growth of the city and its
greatly increased population add proportion
ately to the burdens and responsibilities of
the institution. In view of this fact the
managers make an earnest appeal to the pa
irons, friends and public spirited citizens
generally to assist the society at this urgent
time in its efforts to ameliorate the condition
of the worthy poor by liberal contributions of
money and necessary supplies. Pa note adj
dressed to the collector, Mrs. Alfred Rossier,
No. 94 Bloomfield street, or to the assistant
collector, Miss Johanna Schultze, No. 317
Hudson street, will receive prompt atten-
ton"
The present officers are:-President, Mrs.
William R. Fischer; Secretary, Mrs. Gustav
D. Julien; Treasurer, Mrs. A. Willis Barke-
low; Collector, Mrs. Alfred Rossier, and As
sistant Collector, Miss Johanna Schulze.
The managers are:-Mrs. G. B. Alexander,
Mrs. Palmer Campbell, Mrs. William r.
Jenvey, Mrs. Richard Stevens, Miss M.
Schneider and Miss M. L. Ravens.
The Treasurer's report shows a balance on
hand to October 10, 1898, of $343.3

PRICES IN SUGAR CUT.

PHILADELPHIA, Jan. 8, 1S94.-The recent
declining tendency in sugar prices culmi-
mated yesterday in a cut of one-quarter of a
cent a pound in graduated, which brought
the net price below the lowest price on
record. The price was fixed at 4 cents, less a
rebate of 3-16 and 2 per cent discount to cash
buyers, so that the pet cost to jobbers was
IA cents per pound, The lowest previous
price was 4 cents less the cash discount, in
the fall of 1891, shortly after the removal of
the duties on raw sugars, and at the time of
the S~preckels competition with the local re-
fineries outside of the sugar trust. At that
time, however, there was no rebate such as
now allowed under the terms of the agree
ment between the refiners and the wholesale
grocers; and the current price is, therefore,
the lowest ever touched on refined sugar.

President of the State Board of Agriculture,
the awards of State money for the construc-
ton of roads, and the awards made yester-
day exhaust the appropriation for this year
and leave a large number of petitions for
State aid still under consideration.
President Burrough says the road question
is being very generally agitated throughout
the State, and nearly every county IS desir-
GUS of taking advantage of the law
of 1891, which allows the ex-
penditure of $75,O 900 per year for the
improvement of roads. He has now on
his table petitions for about fifty miles of
road which cannot be constructed for some
time. He estimates that within the next
ten years New Jersey will have the finest
roads in the United States. The awards
are as follows:-Middlesex gets So, 1898 a,

EXPENSES WE'RE I

No Profits to Divide Among the VIM
ners of the Long Bicycle Race,
The Madison Square Garden management
settled up accounts with some of the six day
bicycle riders yesterday. It turned out that
the expenses had been SO heavy that there
were no net profits to be divided among the
first five competitors. Tom Roe, who repre-
sented the riders at the gates, said that he
figured up the gross resceipts at SIS. 442. so.
Manager J. V. Gottschalk claims that ac-
cording to his books the gross receipts would
amount to $15,500. But" he said, ''the
riders will only receive the stated purse
money. The expenses alone nave been $11,-
600, and the Garden, instead of receiving
$1,000 rent, will only get about 1000. We
have paid Schock 81, 200, Waller, $500, Mar
tin $500, Albert $3.50, Van Emberg, $3.50 and
Golden $3.50. In these hard times they should
consider themselves lucky. No, | don't con-
slider the race SO successful financially as the
one in 1891. We had a large attendance, but
it was far exceeded two years ago.
