Secretary Carlisle has had no official
notice of the intended attempt by the
Knights of Labor to prevent his issuing
by means of restraining order from
the courts, and he is going ahead with
the preparations. The subscriptions re-
ceiyed for these bonds exceeded the
amount to be issued before the circular
explaining the method of subscribing
was sent out.

convention was the meekness
with which a majority of the
delegates allowed themselves
to be put on record in assisting
to carry out programme that
was certain to create dissen-
sion in the party. Perhaps
this can be explained by Civ
ing the words of one of the
delegates, who, in defense of
his action, said to a friend after
the convention, that che had
to vote that way or be censur-
ed. " Whoever this political
censor of Foster is he must be
a powerful man to compel a
convention to do just what he
decides shall be done. | Won
der what the censurer had
against the Democratic con-
gressional candidate and the
poor district nominees? He
failed to instruct the delegates
to show an act of courtesy by
indorsing these men, but per-
haps they also were suspected
of being friendly to McGee and
their rights consequently were
ignored, per orders of the
caucus.
The outcome of this state of
affairs is exceedingly doubtful.
The Democrats have a fair
working majority in the town
ship, but not enough to elect
their ticket unless the opposi-
ton within their own ranks is
removed. | have no interest in
the trouble beyond a desire to
see harmony, and this should
be secured at once if there is
any possible way to obtain it..
There is nothing to be gained
by defeating the ticket, except
to rebuke the men who made
it, and revenge of that sort
will not only be misplaced but
will disrupt the party for a
long time to come. In a short
while the Points, with its 100
or more of a majority, will lie
out of the township, and then
the Democrats cannot expect
anything if they are divided
into factions. Let those who
believe they were not fairly
dealt with on Tuesday bide
their time and they will have
countless opportunities to re.
pay what was given them on
Tuesday, but spare the candi.
dates who are innocent this
year. SAUNTERER.

| have no doubt but that Mr..
Zeisloft, if elected, will be as
good a director as could be
selected, but, as the others
have been tried and found
true, their friends think he
should have been given the
one-year term. If he made a
satisfactory director he could
easily have a denomination and
electlon next year, and the
party would be harmonious to-
DAY, instead of being, as it is,
IN the worst condition since
roster became a township.
That is saying a great deal
and though | would like to see
it otherwise, it is nothing more
than the truth. The shelving of
Hough, who was the choice Of so
many people, in order to carry
out the terms of a prearranged
deal, has shook the Democracy
of very many voters, and it is
useless to think they will sane
tion such proceedings. How the
delegates expected to strength
en- the ticket by their action is
not clear, and the knocking
down, regardless of conse-
quences, of every candidate
suspected of being in sympathy
with McGee, seemed like court
ing defeat for the candidates
they did choose.

However, the opposition and
disappointment occasioned by
the selection of the candidate
for tax collector is of small inn
portance when the feeling of
Democrats is ascertained upon
the school board nominees.
Personal conversation with a
large number of men who were
not interested in the choice for
tax collector, an office which
can only benefit one person,
has revealed the fact that pub
lie opinion was decidedly in
favor of giving Jim Hough a
three-years' term, as he has,
while filling uneXpired terms,
shown himself to be a faithful
and earnest worker for the ad-
vancement of education. Mr..
Handlong has also proven him
self a good director, having
served in that capacity several
years ago, and these two would
have made satisfactory candi-
dates.

BIC MORTALITY DECREASE.
Health Boards Tenement House
Census Report Completed.
IL Speaks Well for the Efforts OF
the Sanitary Officers.

The tenement-house census OF the city
OF New York, on which the Board Of
Health officials have been at work for
months past has just been completed
and the result was reported to President
Wilson this morning.
a comparison OF the figures OF 1891
with those OF 1893 shows vast improve
ment in the city's sanitary condition.
The fact is emphasized most particu-
larry by the decrease In the mortality
rate of children under five years Of
age.
The figures show that during the first
half OF 1898 the total number of births
was 1851, rate in proportion to the
population of ASl; deaths, 20, 1874, rate
Of 2o.l0' marriages, 1, lyG, n rate OF l7.3i.
During the nrst SIX months OF 1894 the
number OF births was ~, 1876, q rate oil
$3.50; deaths. y, b55, a rate Of 22.02 mar
riages, 1871, rate of 1886.
During the first SIX months OF the
current year there was decrease or
2,l79 deaths as compared with the same
period of 1888. The same period shows
an increase OF 4,745 births in favor of
1894. In the number of marriages,
however. In this time there was de-
crease of 3S5.
Considering the increase In the tene-
ment- house population. the decrease OF
the death rate is something quite re-
markable, and seems to demonstrate
UNUSUAL activity on the part OF the
Sanitary Department OF the Board OF
Health. The total tenement-house
population, according to the Board OF
Health census In 1891 was LES. Al, and
In 1895, 1.332,773. The number of deaths
III the tenement house districts In 1881
was 70 l2a. and in 1898. with its Increase
4 over 10000 In population, was only
30,3l5.
The general death rate In 1891 was 2377
In 1893. p. %. showing steady improve
ment In the sanitary condition of the
tenement-house district. The population
In 1891 OF children five years old and over
was l,O6i,7l3, and In 1888 l,l5?, 414. The
number OF deaths OF people five years
old and over was 15l73 In 1891; In 1893
l6, 49,. The death rate from 1891 to
1893 had only increased $50 OF per cent.
creased from 708 in 1891 to 1SO359 In
1898. The death rate among these in
fants had decreased from S6.6 in 1891 to
1854 in 1893.
If all the deaths in institutions, which
could not be credited to the houses from
which they were removed to those insti-
tutions, are charged to the tenement
houses. without adding to the population,
the Institutions death rates would be as

THE ELMIRA HORRORS.

Judge Learned Is III, and tine meeting
Of the Elmira Reformatory Commits
sion, which was to have been held yes
terday. has been postponed until next
Tuesday. There Is thus d halt In the
Investigation for u week But the bru-
taiities practised ON the unfortunate
victims of Brockway's malice and in
humanity do not cease for a moment
The savage blows OF the paddle still fall
heavily across the loins OF the sus-
pended sufferers; the horrors of the
dark cell with It's iron bars and chains
are still before the eyes Of the wretched
prisoners; the vengeance of Brockway
threatens without any cessation those
who have borne witness to his crueltics.
It is to be deeply regretted that Gov.
Flower does not see his way clear to the
absolute removal of Brockway from the
Ref1rmatory. now that the rewarding
OF friendly witnesses and the merciless
punishment of unfriendly ones are
made clear. If anything can add to the
scandal Of the atrocities practised at
Elmira, II Is the disgraceful fact that
they hare the apparent sanction and
encouragement Of the Governor Of the
State.

OVER $4,000 FOR THE BABIES.
