AFTER months of Boosting and promis-
ing, the two prize fighters-James ]. Cor
bett, of America, and Charles Mitchell,
of England-came together on Thursday
and in nine minutes America had down
ed England and Corbett had shown his
ability to retain the title of champion.
The daily papers were full of news con-
corning the fight, and it is safe to say
that, while there we're other more import
ant facts chronicled none were read with
more eagerness and interest. There is
little doubt that many denounced as they
read, but the reading was continued just
the same, the denouncers in many in
stances being those who have stood in
down-pouring rain and applauded the
efforts of those engaged in the manly
sport" of foot ball, in comparison with
which the brutality of prize fighting sinks
into insignifcance. Corbett has gwen a
splendid exhibition of what systematic
training and abstinence from dissipation
will do for a man. He has also demon
strated that America can stand up against
all corners, and he has lined his pocket
book with many dollars. Having accom-
plished all these ends, it is to be hoped
that he will now retire from the ring and
that prize fighting will become one of the
lost arts.

A Word
About
Advertising.
Advertising in Dull Times.

"It is easy enough to be good
when there's no chance to be bad,
easy enough to do business when
times are booming, - say Poft-
able AdUeytlslng, and thereby
points moral for the advertiser.
Why is it that business men will
cut down in part or altogether do
away with the agency (advertising)
that brings them the most of their
business at the very time when
greater need for it exists, is a
problem very difficult of solution.
What makes business dull for a
great many business firms is the
fact that there are few advertisers
who have shown their cunning by
pounding away harder than ever
during dull times, and as result
are getting most Of the business.
1t is the faltering advertiser
who never succeeds, but he never
comes to a realizing sense of this
fact until driven out of business
by his more aggressive rival.
A glance at the efforts put forth
by the worlds most successful
merchants shows that that success
depends upon and was brought
about by Ad0ertsSlng. There is
not much difference in the other
business methods Of merchants.
They all, as a rule, sell cheaply
and have what the people want,
but the long-headed man lets the
public know these facts, while his
unsuccessful rival does not.
Much also depends upon the
proper preparation of an adver
tisement. If you do not feel COM
petent to write a good advertise
ment, bring the facts to THE
News office and we will endeavor
to assist you. THE News, by the
way, is one of the best advertising
mediums in this section. 1t cir
culates in every nook and corner
Of Burlington and Ocean counties,
and is read by the class of people
that do the most buying. Try it.

The ola and the New.

Changes take place in the medical pro-
fesson as in all branches of science. We
believe the greatest good will follow that
generous offer made by DIR. Greene, of 35
West l4th Street, New York, who invites
all persons, far and near, suffering from
any form of disease, to write him de-
scription of their complaints. and he will
send them, free of charge, complete ex-
PLANTATION of their diseases, with advice
how to be cured. He gives most careful
and explicit attention to all letters and ex-
plains each symptom so carefully that you
cannot fail to understand exactly what ails
you.
DR.. Greene is our most successful special
ist in curing nervous and chronic dis
eases. He is the discoverer of that
famous medicine, DR.. Greene's Nervura
blood and nerve remedy, which is doing
such vast amount of good all over the
world. He uses nothing in his practice
but harmless vegetable remedies, which
can in no manner injure you. This great
4 system of giving consultation and advice
through letter correspondence, free OF
charge, is especially important to the poor
and those living at a distance from large
cities, as such consultation and advice
were formerly attended by great expense.
The doctor is having wonderful success in
treating the. sick through letter cOrrespon-
dence, and if you will write him about
your disease it will undoubtedly lead to
vOur cuFa.

THE Senatorial deadlock is no nearer
solution than when the first attempt to or
ganize the Senate was made. The dead
lock, if it continues, will tie the Cover
nor's hands in the matter of making ap-
pointments of chancellor, two Supreme
Court justices, a lay judge of the Court of
Errors and Appeals, a law judge for Cum
berland county, lay judges for Burlington,
Camden, Cape May, Gloucester, Ocean,
Salem and eight counties in the northern
part of the State. and prosecutors of the
pleas for Camden, Cumberland, Glouces-
ter, Somerset and Essex counties, besides
many members of boards controlling the
State institutions.
There is no provision for the Chancellor
and Supreme Court justices holding over
until their successors are appointed, and
the Constitution gives the Governor power
to make ad interim appointments only in
case the Senate is not in session. The de.
termination of the Republicans to keep
the Legislature in session throughout the
year Will UTiHB Hill W u CHOiCc UObWCCH
backing down and recognizing the major
ity Senate and crippling the Chancery
and Supreme Courts.
Cortlandt Parker, of Newark, advises
the Republicans to pass the bills most
pressing, including a repeater for the law
permitting the Governor and other State
officers to control and apportion public
appropriations to purposes not provided
by law, thus tying their hands and pre-
venting the comptroller and treasurer
from signing warrants for salaries and
other payments.
With the thirty-nine Republican As
semblymen and four Republican Sena-
tors, whose title to seats is unquestioned,
Mr.. Parker says they could elect Repub-
lican treasurer and comptroller and then
inform the banks holding State funds on
deposit, of their action, and warn them of
the risk they will run if they honor drafts
or warrants from the Governor or the
present treasurer and comptroller.

TUESDAY, JANUARY 80, 1894.
IINcoIN,s BIRTHDAY.
THE STATE REPUBLICAN LEAGUE URGES
ITS CELEBRATION IN EVERY CITY
AND TOWN IN THE STATE


AND TOWN IN THE STATE
THE SENATE STEAL TO BE DENOUNCED
To the Republicans Of NeaO Jersey:-You are earn
estly requested to celebrate the approaching ami
verssry of the birthday of the illustrious Lincoln
on MONDAY, February 18th, by holding pubhc
meetings, delivering addresses upon the life ana
services of Lincoln, reading his immortal address
at gettysburg and other exercises suitable to the
occasion.
Taking as a text, Lincoln's famous declaration
Government of the people, by the people, and
for the people shall not perish from the earth,
we ask YOU to denounce the faction that has seized
control of the Democratic party ana Is my
TO destroy popular government and the rule OF the
majority in this State by attempting to organize
the Senate in disregard of law and custom.
The Republican position that SENATORS holding
credentials issued by the proper authority, are
entitled to be sworn in at once, take their seats
and participate in the organization OF the SEN
mitted by the Governor. the Attorney General,
and every lawyer and Parliamentarian in the
State, irrespective of party.
ity took possession of the Senate Chamber at mid
night preceding the day for organization, removed
the names of the Senators from their desks, at
tempted to organize before the time, locked the
Republican Senators out, refused them recognl-
ton and boldly declared their intention to exclude
Senator Bradley from his seat, although no one
appeared to contest his right.
BY preventing the regular organization OF the
Senate, the Gamblers hope to block all legislation,
retain their Race Tracks, the horde of useless Of
fcials, and the further enjoyment of extravagant
salaries.
See that the voice of the people expressed last
fall is not disregarded. AS Lincoln was the repre-
sentative of great moral reform, and as we are
now engaged in like struggle for morality,
decency and lawful and orderly government. you
are requested to invite the clergymen as well as all
independent citizens, to take part in these pro-
ceedings and raise their voice against the great
wrong now attempting to be perpetrated.
Paraphrasing the language of Senator Bradley
"Brush up Brush up Citizens of New Jersey.
Repeal the Gambling Laws and hurl the Gamblers
from power in this State.''
THERE CAN BE NO COMPROMISE WITH RAsCALs |!
JOSEPH H. GASKILL,
Joshua Matlack, Jr., Sec'y. President.

DURING the Gubernational Campaign
THE News said: "The record made by
Mr.. Werts while in the Legislature is the
best possible evidence of what he will do
if elected Governor There is no better
way of judging man than by his past
acts" Then we gave long list of those
acts, which showed conclusively where
Gov. Werts' sympathies were. The
prediction then made that he would
be in entire accord with the ring that
was ruling the state has been fully veri-
fed. 1t was said when he accepted the
nomination for Governor that Mr.. Werts
did so reluctantly, feeling that he did not
desire to relinquish his position as Judge
OF the Supreme Court Better for his own
honor and for the fair name of the state
of New Jersey if he had been satisfied
with his seat on the bench.

ONE defect in the Hawaiian resolution
now pending in the Senate can be cureC
by adopting the amendment of which
Mr.. Dolph gave notice on Friday. Tit
Senator from Oregon proposed to ado
these words to the resolution And
with a view of restoring amicable rela
tions between the United States and Ha
wall, the present Minister of the United
States to Hawaii should be Immediately
recalled" Whatever diversity of opin
ions, or, to speak more exactly, of poll
cies, may exist among members of Con
gress on the Hawaiian question, it is HARD
to believe that anybody can wish to pro
long Mr.. Willis stay in Honolulu. To
him his situation there must be extreme
ly painful, and to his countryman at home
it is almost as humilItating. That his
presence is embarrassing and offensive tc
the government to which he was accredit
ed for the purpose of destroying it is i'm
possible to doubt, and all considerations
therefore unite to make Senator Dolph's
amendment appropriate
1t was to be hoped, though scarcely ex
pected. that when President Cleveland be-
came aware of President Dole's magnani
nous purpose to give Mr.. Willis own
government chance to recall him he
would promptly take advantage of the
opportunity to perform that friendly act
but inasmuch as he is apparently neglect
ing it Congress ought to express the feel
ing of the American people on the sub
iect. 1t is inconceivable that any credit
to the United States or any benefit tC
either country can result from keeping al
his post the official agent of policy
which has gone to wreck. An agreement
upon the character of that policy is moi
essential to an agreement upon the pro
priety of recalling Mr.. Willis If the
Presidents scheme to restore the Ha
waiian monarchy had been as honorable
and wise as it was shameful and foolish
the retention of the minister who has
made failure of it by such means as
Mr.. Willis was compelled to employ
would be I'm warrantable. The facts being
what they are, he ought to be sent for al
the earliest possible moment. So long as
he remains at Honolulu he represents on
ly the enmity and bad faith of an admin
istration which has betrayed the honor
and the interests of the United States II
his presence among the Hawaiian patrl-
OTIS has ceased to be a menace, it can
never cease to be a source of irritation
1t will not suffer them to forget the mis-
cradle part he has played in their affairs
his secret intrigue with repudiated
monarch to overthrow the government to
which he bore credentials and message
of good will, ending with a summons to
stand and deliver.
Fortunately the Provisional Govern
ment and the people whom it represents
are not in doubt of the feeling of Ameri-
cans toward them and toward the admin.
istrauon at Washington. They are moi
in danger of confounding public senti
ment in this country with the wayward
will of a stubborn executive. But that
is no reason why we should trespass lon
ger on their good nature. They are en-
titled to the satisfaction of bidding Mr.
Willis a permanent farewell.-New Yorl
| Tribune.

THE latest phase of the political mud
die at Trenton is proposition by Cover
nor Werts that the subject be taken be-
fore the Supreme Court and that that
body shall review the case and decide
which is the legal body. The Republican
Senators very properly refused to accede
to any such proposition. The facts In
this whole Senatorial question are few
and plain.
At the last election the people of eight
counties elected State Senators. Lawfully
and without any question Republican
candidates we're elected in seven out of
these eight counties. These seven Sena-
tors, with the four Republicans whose
terms hold over, constitute a majority
and quorum of the Senate. The nine
Democrats whose terms hold over had de-
termined, for purely partisan reasons and
without regard for justice or right, to try
to prevent one or more of the lawfully
elected Republican Senators from taking
their seats. The Republicans legally
elected properly chose to Illustrate this
conspiracy by taking the oath of Office
without giving these nine men the oppor-
tunity to carry out their plot.
To take this matter into the courts is to
say that the people of this state do not
know their own minds and are not fit to
govern. and that the ballot box should be
abolished. There is no need of any ap'
peal to the Supreme Court or to any other
court The only action that is necessary
or desirable is for Governor Werts to free
himself from the yoke that is around his
neck, and announce what he knows to be
the truth-tbat the Democratic Senators
are in the wrong. The matter will I'M
doubtedly be settled by court, but il
will be that court which will convene al
over the state on the first Tuesday aftel
the first Monday in November.

CHAPTER ".

And it came to pass that the children Of
the desert. yea even the remnant of the
tribe of Grover which dwelleth in the
valley of the Jordan, the same which
floweth from Lehi round about Bluff Dale
into the Dead Sea, they buckleth on their
armor and cuteth wide swath.
And they lifted up their voices, crying,
Behold mighty tribe are we, a mighty
man is Grover, yea mighty profit, and
he hath promised us mighty good times
if we but remain faithful and uncom-
planning and obedient and busted to the
end.
And behold we are his children and it
behooveth us to obey our great father,
for is it not writ that obedience is better
than sacrifice and to harken than the fat
of rams
Wherefore we will cleave unto Grover
and his great notions, through thick and
thin, through veal and woe, through
poverty and distress and financial ruin
even unto death, for ever and ever,
amen"
And it came to pass that they gathered
together the warriors of their tribes, yea
even Orlando, the Michiganite, of the
tribe of the Tuscaroras, and Joshua. the
Loganite of the tribe of the Tariff Re-
formers and Hegney, the Gettite, of the
tribe of the Rlproaras, and Faust, the
Goshite, of the lost tribes, and all the
Groverites and blatherskItes from far and
near.
And when they we're gathered together
they looked terrible as an army with ban
ners, and they cried, Behold. we will
smite our enemies, yea even the Varian-
ties. hip and thigh, and our Billy shall be
heard in the councils of the nation"
And the Varianites arose in their wrath
and said "Billy" 90 to.
And the next day it snew.-Sah Lake

dirty proceedings of the past three
weeks should be severely dealt
with. So far as Gov. Werts is CON
cerned, we do not agree with the Trans
cTipt that the talk of impeachment is nom
sense. The mere fact that the people
elected Werts Governor, does not neces-
sarily imply that Governor he must be"
right or wrong. When he was chosen to
the high Office he now occup pies, it was
with the expectation that he would exc
cute its important duties in manner
that would leaye no room for criticism.
Merely because Gov. Werts is the execu-
tive is no reason that he should overstep
the mark. The question of policy should
not enter into the subject. To impeach
for political effect or not to do so for fear
of its bad result upon the party in power
should not be considered for moment.
If Gov. Werts has not violated any obli-
CATION or if he has not offended that set
ties the matter. If he has been guilty of
any misdemeanor he should be made to
answer for his shortcomings.

And after the space of time it came to
pass that when the shepherds took of the
firstlings of their flock and sheared them
and went up to the city to exchange their
fleeces for pieces of silver, the wise men
said unto them Not this season some
other season" Yea, Grover is great. He
is all wool and yard wide, but the stomp
in wool is several cubits wider.
And the shepherds marveled exceeding,
and some of them, yea even they which
had hardened unto the voice of Grover,
smote their breasts and went up and
down with bent heads crying to one an.
other, "Behold if thou wilt kick me l will
do even so unto thee"
And when the diggers of the earth
went up with their silver and lead and
precious stones and said to the money
changers, "Give US food that we may cal
and clothing that we may dress up" the
money-changers laughed little cold, hard
laughs and sang songs of great sacrilege,
saying, "Grover, Grover, four more years
of Grover; we would buy your lead, but
times are dead, till four more years are
over" and other psalms.
And when they heard the psalmsts
many hired kickers and others tore their
hair, and all the inhabitants of the nation
said damn.
And it came to pass that the storms
came and the panic descended and the
children of darkness lifted up their hands
and wrung them in great lamentation
saying:
"Wherefore art thou, Grover, our de-
liverer, and wherefore art the good times
at ?" and mighty voice came back from
the wilderness, saying, "The President is
fishing and must not be disturbed"

THE talk of impeaching Governor Werts
is nonsense and would be no more de-
fensible on grounds of good public policy
than has been the action of the Demo
cratic minority Senate. The people elect
ed Mr.. Werts Governor, and Governor he
must be unless he gets very much more
of asIant in the wrong direction than at
present If Impeachment were in ord err,
when the Republicans finally get into
power, they might with equal propriety
"impeach" all of the ten Democratic Sen
ators whose action the Governor uphods.
