Ga July 20 last the increase in the Ma
tional Debt under President Cleveland's
Administration, as shown by official re-
cords, was $296, 340,Sl7.
The above stubborn fact tells us, more
plainly than all other things put together,
what an expensive luxury this Democrat
ic Administration has been, and, mas
much as the deficit continues to grow al
the same raie, there docs not seem to be
great ground for promise that an improv
cd condition of things will obtain until q
Republican Administration shall come In
power.
There are some things concerning which
there may be an honest difference Of opin-
ion-there are others upon which all sen
sible, intelligent and unprecedented people
should agree. For instance; under Re.
publican Administration every one admits
that the times were good, wages high,
work plenty, all the mills busy, the debt
decreasing rapidly the Democrats come
in power and make radical changes In the
tariff, wages go down, hundreds of thou
sands out of work, a. large percentage of
the mills shut down, distress all over the
land and public debt piling up on us at
an alarming rate. Here we have the &C
tual statement OF facts, and it would seem
to be the part OF ordinary common sense
to replace in power those who have done
well and to turn out those who have been
and are responsible for so much suffering
and loss. Every Northern State has al.
ready done this, and if the people could
only vote now for President they would
make short work with the Democratic
bosses who have brought upon us all this
evil. They are tired and sick of it and
propose to have a change. -MoTiStOaOn

The Jersey City Journal is out in a
strong editorial favoring John w. Griggs
for Governor, and deems him "the strong
est, most eligible, and all things consid
cred, the best man to lead the Republican
party of New Jersey in the coming polt-
ical fight He possesses, we believe, more
elements of fitness and strength for such
a contest than any other man whose nom
ination is possible, and that is reason
enough why he should have our prefer
ence. No one will question Mr.. Griggs's
ability and abundant qualification for the
Gubcrnatorial office. No one will venture
to impugn his personal integrity, or pro-
fcssional honor. No one who knows him
will doubt his independence, his courage,
or his resoluteness and pr0mptness in ac
ton. If elected to the office Of Governor
Mr.. Griggs would fill the position with
signal ability, independence, and official
cleanliness, and with credit TO the State
and himself. His record Of Republican
ism is consistent and creditable, and there
is no reason why any Republican should
fail to vote for him if he is made the par
TVS candidate. So far as he is himself
concerned he would give the party the
most able and brilliant personal leader
ship in the campaign which 1t has ever
had, and it is our conviction that if he
cannot lead the Republicans of New Jer-
soy TO victory, we know no man in the
party's ranks who can.

Company's personally conducted tours to
the North will leave on Auguat 90.
These tours traverse more than seven
teen hundred miles of the most magnih-

his experience he has found no other tours
of equal distance SO replete in points of
genuine interest, every one Of which is in
itself well worth the trip. The stop at
Quebec, new feature, added greatly TO
the success of the last tour.
The names OF the places to be visited
are familiar TO all and suggestive of won
derland No matter how much may be
expected, one cannot be disappointed in
Watkins Glen, Niagara Falls, Thousand
Islands, Quebec, Montreal, Au Sable
Chasm, Lakes Chnmplain and George,
Saratoga, or the Highlands of the Hud-
son. The round trip rate of 800 from
New York, Brooklyn, Newark, Trenton,

such, however, and, alas, not being the

Wanted the Roles Equal,

In the early sixties there flourished in
Paris a writer who used his talent as %
professional libelcr. His real name was
Jacquot, his nom de gucrre Eugene de
Mirecourt. One day there appeared vio-
lent onslaught on Alexandra Dumas pere.
The article openly taxed the great novelist
with living on the brains of his collabora-
tors. The father happened to be away
from Paris. The son sent his seconds to
Mirecourt.
You say, gentlemen" said the biogra-
pher that you are acting in behalf of NJ

The two gentlemen bowed assent
Thereupon Mirecourt rings for his servant

And to his visitors great surprise there

that the roles should be equal you had bet

Ability OF Paul Jones.

One of the strangcst things in Paul
Jones career was the success he achieved
with scratch" crews. In his greatest
fight, contemporary history says, he had
las bad crew as ever was shipped" be-
ing made up of all nations, among them
Maltese, Portuguese and Malays who did
not always comprehend the word Of com
mand. Paul Jones has been severely de-
nounced for having returned to the place
of his birth bent on destruction; but, as
Cooper justly points out, an officers oath
obliges him TO do all in his power to harass
the enemy, and it was not only Paul
Jones' right, but his duty, to use his
knowledge of the Scotch and Irish coasts
In the prosecution Of the war. If he had
any feeling on the subject, it would have
been his duty to suppress it, But Paul
Jones probably had no feeling whatever
except resentment. He had left his native
land as child, and upon his last visit he
had been cruelty i'll used, as he thougl g,
and he did his duty ON this cruise with no
more rcpugndnce than he would have felt
at doing it clsrwhcrc--and did it merciful-

Survival of the Lost Sixth Sense.

"Do you think animals communicate
togetherf' was asked of Hagcnbeck, the
lion tanner.
"They put their heads close together and
seem to have u sort of sign language
They express such simple thoughts as m
tired Get out of the way, Stand back,
Are you wcllY quite plainly to my obser-
walton among each other.
1.-The language of animals seems quite
plain to me, " continued the famous lion
tanner earnestly. Men have u considera-
Bile ability to communicate facial expires
sion and gesture, but school themselves to
repress these natural expressions of rage,
fear or friendship and say by oral language
what their wisdom dictates, often quite the
opposite of what they feel.
animals, on the other hand, are toe
simple to make believe, and this gift,
which men misuse is their regular mode
of communication. Notice how quickly
dog scents rage or sorrow in his master
face. We can t see the expression of a lion 5
face except Of rage, but his companions
can.
II have also thought that animals have
the gift of thought reading instead of pow
er to speak Did you ever see one animal
fail to understand another? l never saw
such an instance. The range of their
thoughts is limited. l do not think they
can read mems thoughts except very i'm
perfectly, because they are so extensive
and complex beyond their comprehension.
l am inclined 10 think that what we call
mind reading is mere survival here and
there Of the lost sixth sense which was
probably common to primitive man, and
which animals possess to this day. kan

Cause of Seasickness.

SeasicknesS is usually believed to be due
to an influence upon the circulation in the
brain produced by the oscillation of the
ship, but this theory, although accounting
for the gastric symptoms, does not explain
all cases. symptoms of the malady are re.
ported by Rubinstein to have been often
noticed in some persons when the sea was
calm and the vessel steady These cases
are attributed to irritation of the retina by
reflection of the sunshine from the water
the irritation being transmitted to the
brain, provoking the we'll known symp-
tons. The trouble has been avoided by
turning the back to the sun. The symp-
toms of seasickness have been experienced
also in snowlelds and on desert sands,
gray or blue spectacles being the means by
which relief is afforded. York Dis
