Where Are We At ?

If men would only exercise tie !
same judgment and comman sense in
politics that they do in other business !
affairs how different thing, would ap- |
pear to them? We often hear Il man
say he is Il Republican or Democrat
who never thinks for Il moment what
it means. What he really does think
Of is, that he votes that ticket. There
was Il time when to be either Dem
ocrat or 4 Republican mean the ac-
ceptancc of Il we'll defined political
creed. Both the Republican and
Democratic party had a great mission
to perform. 1t was the necessity Of
reform that gave each Of them an cX-
i>tencc The .Jcticrsonian creed. as
promu!gatc by that cmlucnt states
man and founder Of the Democratic
party, WAS plain and well Defined |;
was the popular politics of his day as
distinguished from the IIamiltonian
theory Of Il more centralized govern
mcnt. jefferson idea of govern
mcnt was that the people should keep
their hands directly on the throttle of
power That ali powers should cmr-
nate from the people and ali laws en-
acted with their consent and APPROX
al. Hamilton belonged to that school
of politics that believed that the pco-
pie were not absolutely y capable of
f-gOvernmcnt-tha some checks
should be thrown around them to
guide them through the tcmpestuous
waves Of political excitement. More
than Il acentury Of experience has prov
.'n that jefferson wa, right in his the
ofy of uOvern,ncnt-that it was safer
in the hands of the people than Of Il
few men chosen otherwise than bv
popular vote.
Then SO fl: rs the two oil p:rtics
are concerned, it is not what y ,Han
believes that constitutes him Il Dem
ocrat or a Republican. but the parry
he votes with. The creed Of either
party. if it can be truthfuIlv said they
have a creed. is broad cnuunI to take
in anybody but a Pnpuli>t. But the
strange part of 1t Is. that Il man who
believes in pure Jetitrsoulan Democ-
racy is not eligible to membership in
the ranks Of the Democratic party.
and the man wil<, believes in Abe
Lincoln HcpublIcani>m Is considered
too cranky to btIon" to the Rrpuhli
can party.
Now, if neither OF these parties
represent any well defined economic
principles on which its members
agree. what do they represent and of
what It's. are they? The answer is
plain. They represent and are con
,rolIed 10y Il thoroughly equipped and
organized band Of otlirc->eekcrs and
political bosses, backed b, trusts and
corporations, whose bidding they are
willing to do for pay. and whose con
sciences are not bur,lcned with eco
nomic questions involving the rights
Of tie people. No sane man can de
nv this. American craftsmanship

one of Doodle and misrepresentation

pie. but to deceive them --Euina IN

Not by 4 jug full.

good if laid out in pamphlet and re-

mouth to speak the soft answer

HoBoKBN PIONEERS PICNIC.

The Hoboken Independent Pioneers. the
largest Democratic club Of Hoboken, held
their sixth annual picnic Tuesday night at

attendance, and the affair was a grand sue
cess. The officers and member of the club
were all out in full force. The officers are
W. Schaefer, President: F. Bermes, Vice
President; F. CASTER, Financial Secretary
G. G. Schwenck, Recording Secretary; w.
Paul, Treasurer; G.. Paasch, Marshal; Prof.
Martin, Bandmaster.
The success of the picnic was largely due
to these officers:-Floor Manager William
Miller and his assistant, Jacob Horn. They
were assisted by the Floor COMMITTEES, which
consisted of W. Hanson. w. Gutheil, W.
Paul, O.. Hanson. j. Philhoeler, G. G.

NO JURISDICTION OVER CoRoNERS.
Mr.. Carrow then moved that his PROPOSE
tion that all reference to the Office or Cor
oner be stricken from the Constitution be
adopted.
Mr.. Bedle raised the question of order tha6
the commission had no power to deal VIII
the office of coroner. Mr.. Ludlow sustalneH
the point. Il
Mr.. McDermott moved to adopt Propose,
ton No. II, by which all reference to ting
office Of justice of the peace is stricken from
the Constitution. Mr.. Carrow said that the
last Grand Jury Of Camden county in max
ing their ~presentment had recommended the
abolishment of the office of justice OF the
peace, as justices of the peace were null
Sances.
GOV. BEDLE E THE j. Ps.
Mr.. Bedle championed the causes OF the
justices of the peace, and said that there
was no court which held out so many ad-
vantages to a young beginner as this; no
court where he had such an opportunity TO
spread himself.
The proposition was adopted by a vote OF
s to 6.
The Commission next considered the
proposition that no person shall be
held TO answer for a criminal offence, where
the maximum punishment prescribed by law
is imprisonment for a period exceeding six
months, or a fine Of more than one hundred
dollars, or both, unless IN the presentment
or indictment of a Grand Jury,
except in cases of impeachment, or in
case arising in the army or navy, or in the
militia, when in actual service in time OF
war or public danger. In cases where the
maximum punishment does not exceed i'm
prisonment for term of six months, or a
fine of one hundred dollars, or both, the
Legislature may dispense with Indictment or
presentment,by the Grand Jury.
Mr.. McDermott said that the cost Of cases
of assault and battery and petty larceny was
more in some counties of the State than the
whole cost of maintaining the Court of
Errors.
Mr.. Stockton thought it too serious a mat
ter to try cases without indictment.
Mr.. Bedle doubted whether there would
be any pecuniary benefit derived by such a
step, and he said that he considered it too
dangerous a power to be left loose.
The proposition was lost and the commits
sion adjourned to next Tuesday.

INSPECTING THE JAIL
The Grand Jury Finds Everything
in Good Condition.

The Grand Jury on Tuesday presented
seventeen indictments to the court. This
makes a total of 223 that has been found
this term. After Judge Hudspeth said the
Grand Jury might retire, it went to the
Jail under the leadership of Foreman
Simeon H. Smith and made a thorough in
vestigation of that Institution. The opinion
of the Grand Jury was unanimous that the
Jail was clean and much improved in ap-
pearance since, Sheriff Tofey has taken
charge Of it. The food was commended, and
the books of the Jail We're found to be in a
first-claSs condition.
During the inspection Sheriff Tefey com
planned that he could not got water on the
second floor, and had to carry up all that
was used. He also said that the extremely
clean condition of the floors was due to their
being scrubbed with sand. Heretofore a
was never used in the Jail. While walking
through the Jail the members Of the Grand
Jury noticed the smiling face of Murderer
Altenberger and the sickly appearance of
Murderer Bull, who was lying face down
and breathing as if he had asthma. He paid
no attention to the Grand Jurors.
