The Two CamerOns.

II James Donald Cameron wants an
other term in the federal senate he
will have TO fight for IT.: a strong ele-
ment among Pennsylvania republicans
is fixing things for his defeat, II 1t is
possible to bring about that result.
These people are making a handle of
the senator's attitude toward silver.
That Mr.. Cameron is a sincere and
consistent friend of free coinage, there
ID no doubt whatever He Is as far
away from the people of Pennsylvania
on that question as his distinguished
father was, nearly forty years ago, on
another issue of national Importance.
These are times when the people ap-
pear to enjoy the work of turning
down old-time political leaders; they
went at that work last election day
with JUNCTION. Senator Cameron's term
may come next-his term Of office runs
out sixteen months hence. If that
happens. 1t will be the breaking of a
remarkably long record for the Cam
eron family.
We have lust made incidental refer
ence to Senator Cameron's father.
Simon Cameron's early life found him
the struggling editor of an obscure
newspaper in a little town In Penn
sylvania. He was so prospered and
was possessed of so much ability. that
the year 1s45 found him In the federal
senate. He served one term, but he
was again elected in 1857. He went
into Lincoln's cabinet but left that to
be minister to Russia. In 1866 he was
again elected to a seat in the senate.
and the Cameron family has held that
seat ever since. Simon Cameron re-
signing. in 1877. in favor of his son.
]. Donald. The country knew Simon
Cameron as the GEAR of Pennsylvania
politics"
Senator Cameron's unique distinction
is that he is the only republican sena-
tor representing a constituency east of
Omaha who is in favor of free coinage.
The utmost was made of his silver
opinions in the anti-Quay skirmish
preliminary to this years state cleo
ton. Even Quay himself. when the
fight was hottest. gave utterance to
sentiments that were not in evidence
of fealty to Cameron. Since election
the opposition to Cameron has been
putting on definite form. Many re-
publican newspapers are writing him
down and already the discussion of
the senate succession has struck a live
ly pace.
The ridiculous adjunct of this busi-
ness is the self-stultifying talk OF
newspapers in free-coinage constitu-
encies that try to make their readers
believe that their sarcasm is seriously
intended when they speak of Cameron
as the republican candidate for the
presidency In 1896.

LOVERS STILL.

His hair as wintry snow is white:
Her trembling steps are slow;
His eyes have lost their merry light.
Her cheeks their rosy glow;
Her hair has lost its tints of gold.
His voice its joyous thrill:
And yet, though feeble, gray and old.
They're faithful lovers still.
Since they were wed. on lawn and lea
Oft did the daisies blow.
And oft across the trackless sea
Did swallows come and go.
Oft were the forest branches bare.
And oft in gold arrayed;
Oft did the lilies scent the air.
The roses bloom and fade.
They've had their share Of hopes and
fears,
u Their share of bliss and bale;
Since first he whispered in her ears
A lovers tender tale.
Full many a thorn amid the flowers
Has lain upon their way;
They've had their dull November hours
AS well as days of May.
But firm and true. through veal and
woe.
Through change OF time and scene,
Through winters gloom. through sum-
mer's glow.
Their faith and love have been. 4
Together hand in hand they pass
Serenely down life's HILL n:
An hopes one grave in churchyard grass
May hold them lovers still. b,

He Has More Views. I"

Speculation is rife as to the recon-
mendations respecting banking and
the currency which Secretary Carlisle
will embody in his forthcoming an
nual report 1t appears that the secre-
tary has a plan--he wants the green
backs withdrawn: he may urge con-
gress to favor a scheme under which
the country's currency shall be issued
exclusively by state banks. the govern
lafing business.
What difference does II make whether
Secretary Carlisle advocates one set of
notions or another? Since he has been
in office. as a member of the cabinet
In a democratic administration, he has
had a democratic congress to deal
with. He has been industrious with
his recommendations at the advent of

A Million Back OF 1t.

Alas for the rarity. not only Of
Christian charity. but of many an
other virtue that is designed to con-
tribute its share toward human con-
tentment and happiness and useful
ness. Here is case in point.
Not very long ago. a young woman.
under the auspices OF a newspaper
that deals in sensations. started to
make a trip around the world, The stip-
ulation being that she should circle
the globe in quicker time than any
former record. 1t was a cheap sensa-
ton: millions of women would gladly
have undertaken the job. and a ma
jority out of each million would have
made as good time as did the person
in question, who masauerades under
the name of Nellie BLY,.
After betting the globe. this woman
was put to newspaper service in other
sensational ventures. The sequel was
that she found a fool. He was a de-
creptt old man, eighty years old or
worse than that. who fell in love with
Nellie BLY,, or thought he did, and
wanted to marry her. The dried-up
old buffers strong suit was that he
was worth a million or more-he has
large estates in the vicinity Of New
York city. The Nellie Bly, woman
married him a few months ago. His
name Is Seaman. The motive for a
repulsive marriage of the sort may
easily be guessed: the marriage itself
furnished another sensational story
for some of the newspapers.
One morning last week this Nellie
BLY, was in an uptown police court in
New York city. She was complainant
against a man whose arrest she had
caused. She asserted that she was
constantly Swallowed by this man; she
described how she had been driving
in a cab. how the man. occupying an
other cab was constantly In her
wake; how she alighted at Herald
square; how. when he stepped to the
sidewalk an instant later; and how
she caused his arrest. knowing him to
be a detective in old man Seaman's
service.
Tt all came out: the detective said he
knew little about the affair. except
that the young woman. taking break
fast at home. was always out for
lunch and dinner. and the old man
was simply anxious to know where she
took her meals. The police justice
promptly discharged the prisoner. in
forming the woman that he could do
nothing for her.
The play Is clear enough; there are
women in this world willing to be
wives to half-dead octogenarians. II
there's a bank account In sight; to the
credit Of womanhood be it said that
there are millions of women who would
not lend themselves to any such sor-
did uses. In the case OF the Nellie BLY,
woman. all that Is needed is that the
shadow racket be kept up. Probably
that will end In a settlement; and
probably that's better than to take
chances in an old fools last will and
testament.

The judiciary Lew.

The question of the constitutionalty of
the Voorhees, Elective Judiciary law will
not be settled by the Supreme Court until
after the November election.
The case was argued at the June term
of court before Justices Van Syckel, Ma
gee and Lippincott, sitting as branch
court. Monday morning Justice Van
Syckel, who presided over the branch
court, was asked when the opinion would
be filed. He said the Justices had con-
ference on the subject, and that it was
agreed that the opinion should be handed
down at the November term Of the Su.
preme Court, which will be after election.
The fact that the constitutionality OF
the law is questioned in court will not In
any manner affect the Issuance Of the OF.

ties from proceeding with the nomination

A Justice Sues the County.

During the past Winter Justice A. b.
Kline, of Pennington, committed 636
tramps to the County Jail at % cents
each, making bill for fees against the
county of $134.00. This bill was present.
ed to the Freeholders for payment at the
May organization, and at various times
since, but it always met with refusal for
the reason that the Freeholders question
ed the legality of the arrests.
Justice Kline argued that he h ad moth
ing to do with the legality or ilegality Of
the arrests; that the tramps were brought
before him and that he committed them
to the Jail, and that the law allowed him
% cents for each commitment which the
county is bound to pay. He argued fur
Their that If any Of the tramps were illeg
ally arrested and committed they had
their redress in bringing suit against him
for false impriso nment
The bill was again presented to the
Board at the last Wednesday meeting
and again payment was refused. There
upon the Justice sued the county for thu
amount of his bill, and the Sheriff a
once served the necessary papers upor

What the outcome of the suit will be w

endeavor to advise our readers.
Five hundred and tbirty-six arrests ant
commitments of tramps during the Win
ter months shows to what dimensions tn
tramp nuisance has grown, and how th
hard-working taxpayers are burdene'
with their maintenance. The Justice

pense of the lot in question. There ough

deeply indebted to Mrs. a. C. Gandey
and Mrs. Oscar Burd, for the gift of flow
ers. The fire laddes are not forgotten by
any means, but the parades are so few
that floral decorations had almost become
thing of the past. An hour or two more
would have added many handsome floral
tributes.
Chief Samuel Morse was the recipient
of handsome bouquet on the route of
the parade, which he carried with care
and grace.
Mr. Charles H. Skillman's residence on
Main street was decorated with Chinese
lanterns and otherwise Illuminated in
honor of the parade, and Mr.. Skillman
was able to review it from his porch,
where he sat In full uniform of No. l, of
which he is a member. The accident of
last week prevented his participation.
Loud and lusty cheers were given him by
each organization as it passed.
What about uniforms They are not
of much use all the time, but on occasions
of parades a nobby uniform comes in
play. A little money judiciously expend-
ed in these cheap clothing times would
procure neat, new uniforms for the COM
paules not supplied. Then first-class,
red,hot, gorgeous aggregation of fire lad
ders and machines here during the Fall.

OF all the boys in the band with their
new uniforms there was none more proud
than little Willie Thatcher, the cymbal
player, except it might have been the ten
or drummer, Burrie Sproat, or bass
drummer Dockerty, or leader Strauss, OF
clarinet player Moore, or every other
member of the band.
The dust wants settling on N. Main
street before any more paradcs. II was
just perfectly dreadful on Saturday night.
Why do some people always want to
crowd into the streets when anything is
going on, and still there is plenty of room
on the sidewalks This is great nui-
sance and ought to be stopped.
His Honor, the Mayor, aud the city
government officials ought to have re-
viewed the parade from some prominent
place on Saturday night. You can't be
too proud of the Fire Department and
the National Guard, and both organiza-
tons deserve recognition and approval.
