The Reform Movement.

"Our anti friends have expressed

ing pleased with the prospect of m
early dissolution OF the reform move.
ment in this State. They base their
opinion on the fact that the leaders
are wranSling among themselves for
the best seats i'll the synagogue.
This Of itself can dn no harm and is
the case in every faction Of every DO.
litical party. 1t is tho sign of Il
healthy and vigorous condition Of the
movement, aud shows that there is
life and spirit in the cause, and u
high and lnndlble ambition in the
leaders to be prominent and useful in
promoting and advancing toe pro.
gless and accomplishing the PURPOSES
ot the movement is encouraging t.,
the rank and file and stimulates in
terest and cXcrtion.'
We publish the above from our
esteemed contemporary, the Peoples
journal, SO that the readers of The
SENTINEL can enjoy the double graft,
fication Of knowing there was vet
something to please an anti and at
the same time assure them that the re.
form movement is in no danger. We
are glad to know this. 1t is the
hardest thing any party ever tried to
do vet, to keep the outsiders in it's
own crowd quiet, without throwing
them something. The ants have
wran&lvd enough thrmselv, to know
that is nothing, only the biggest
wlangler gets the best place. OF
course the movement will continue
vigorous until every fellow in it gets
al office. The purposes of the move.

from one to another. But Il rcfprmcr
