On Tuesday morning, January 16,
1894, Henry Kern babe adieu to the
troubled scenes of life. His death,
which occurred mt the old homestead

mile northwest of Beavertown, was
brought on by consumption and the
debilities of old age. He was born
April 2. 1918. MIR. Kern was at one
time man of considerable means
and many owe their success to the
financial aid received from him.
Being open handed, open hearted
and kindly dispositioned, he could
not turn deaf ear to q plea for
help, in consequence of which he
was often made the victim of wolves
in sleeps clothing and cheated out of
thousands of dollars. Not with
standing this fact, he was still at the
time of his death, n well-to do man.
His second wife and six children sur
vive to mourn the loss of n kind
and generous husband and father.
The children by his former marriage
are, Mrs. jacob Dreese, Halstead,

Hastings Is The Man.

Only the strongest kind of oppo-
sition from the country delegates to
the May convention, when a Guber-
material candidate is to be named,
can prevent the nomination of Gen
eral Daniel Ii. Hastings, an honor
which he barely lost four years ago.
The Philadelphia delegates to the
State Convention on Saturday de-
clared in favor Of him in the follow
ing resolution offered by David
Martin:
RESOLVED, That III harmony with
the sentiment of the Republicans OF
Philadelphia, we, the delegates 10
the State Convention to be held on
May %, 1894, cordially indorse Gen.
eral Daniel III. Hastings as candi.
date for Governor, and pledge our
selves TO so act and vote in SAID con-
vention as to best promote his nomi-
nation.
There was no otroublo about adopt
ing such resolution, for every one
of the delegates was heartily in favor
Of Hastings nomination and no
other name was mentioned. This
action of the Philadelphia delegates
gives the nomination to Mr. Hastings
beyond a doubt, as it is well known
that the country delegates are with
him almost to man.

The Mederh Children OF Israel.

1t DOES tickle our risables to hear
our Democratic cotemporaries quote
R|rShblican authorities who assume
sthe powers to yindicate the Dem
ocratic party from being the cause
of the present hard times. Grant
ing, for argument sake, that they
are not responsible for the present
depression, this Democratic wrig-
Cling Is nothing less than an apology
and apology means retreat Had
our friends, the enemy, been con
tent with promising n continuation
of things as they were under the last
administration, no one would ask or
expect an explanation, but their
campaign cry was, Down with hard
times, monopolists and Republican
misule. Accept us for your guide
and We will lead you out of the vii
dorness into the land of Canaan.
They did. Cleveland was their
Moses, and whether or not he got
us into Canaan we do not know, but
it seems from the murmurings in the
various tribes of these modern Chill
dren of Israel, that if this as Canaan
they would prefer the Wilderness.

General Hastings appears to be
having rare luck this year in his
efforts to obtain the Republican
nomination for Governor. Before
the campaign has fairly opened he
finds his most formidable rival vol
UNFAIRLY getting out OF the way.
Congressman Chas. w. Stone has
found it wisdom to accept an uncon-
tested denomination for Congress
rather than TO undertake doubtful
fight for the higher prize, which
General Hastings is pursuing with
assiduity and success. Mr.. Stone
would have made a strong candidate
and first-class Governor but SO
will General Hastings. and the War
rem Congressman may console him
self with the hope that "all thing s
come to him who waits'-and retires
with discretion at the proper mo-
vent.

WEST SIDE REPUBLICANS.

A lively and enthusiastic meeting was
held last evening by the West Side Repub-
lican League at Williams Hall. There were
nearly one hundred members present. Ten
new applications for membership were re-
ceived. The league has decided to give an
entertainment the last week in June. Presl-
dent M. E. Pier proposed that some action
be taken against the Consolidated Traction
Company for charging over five cents fare
within city limits. He said:-"The com
pany has no right to run their cars through
the streets Of Jersey City without accom-
modating Jersey City people. Very few in
habitants of this city have usine in New
ark, but many Newark people ave business
in New York. The Consolidated Traction
Company is carrying these Newark pas
sengers through the streets of Jersey City
and the Jersey City people receive no benefit.
If the fare was five cents within city limits
the cars would be of use to Jersey City
people"
The league appointed a committee to wait
upon the President of the Traction Company
and endeavor to have him change the fare
from ten to five cents within city limits.
Mr.. Campbell talked about extending Sip
and Duncan avenues to the Hackensack
River. There is a valuable lot of water in
that section which could be made use OF II
the streets were extended. All the members
of the league will visit the James g.. Blaine
Association on Monday, jun Is next. Prot.
Dunn gave O. recitation and Messrs. Pod
more and Pia sang.
