tell us that more money goes outside

go? Who gets the benefit of it since
the Fountains are taxed to bury the

FROM NEW JERSEY.
The Political Situation-The Republican
Forces 0rganize-The Vote of Tren-
ton-An Interesting Letter.
TRExroN, NJ, January 2e. zee

Will De AskcQ 10 put themselves on
record in a Presidential election, and
it would dim the glory of the State if
by hook or crook, it was won over to
the side of Democracy so soon after
redeeming itself. This country is in
need of a Republican administration
of public affairs, and there is every
probability of the election next fall Of
a Republican president, but it should
be the aim of the citizens of New Jer-
sey to make this State count as heavily
as possible in the contest on the Repub-
lican side.
THE STATES OPPORTUNITY.
The Presidential election will give
New Jersey an opportunity to con-
vince the Republican ranks to stay.
In the three last elections here, the
Republicans have been victorious.
They began with making both branch
es OF the Legislature strongly Repub-
lican; then they elected solid dele
CATION of eight members to Congress ::
after that. they swept the State and
elected a governor and now it only re-
mains for them to give the Republican
nominee for President large plurali-
ty to show that they mean business
and that the State is theirs from end
to end.
This may be easily accomplished.
IL is only necessary for the party in
power to work carefully and faithfully
in the interest of the people. 1t is un-
der the eye of sharp critics who will
not allow any opportunity to lower its
standing with the people to pass with
out taking advantage of it.
WHAT SHOULD BE DONE.
i
We repeat what we have already
said, that the Republican party now
that it is in absolute power in this
State, should by honest dealing and
wise action SO encourage the conf
Idence and respect of the people that
they have no reason for forsaking it,
is the duty of that party to, by all
means that are honorable, intrench it.

MAY END IN 4 DUEL.
Rad Blood between Two hentucA-
fans

fans.
Washington, Nov. 10. - A duel IS
threatened between Senator Black
burn and Logan Carlisle, the secre.
tary's son, and is thought by frlends Oh
both to be more probable than ever.
Blackburn has not returned TO WASH
ington since Logan CarliSle'S letter de-
claring a negro to be Blackburn SUI
perior. Friends are still insisting tnaC
hostilities between the two are pfoDa-
BILE because of that incident when the
announcement was n ade that logan,
as chief clerk for the treasury depart
ment, had discharged from the 1edefal
service Blackburn's nephew, Agent
Adams, and later also Miss Minnie NC
Millin, sort of protege OF BLACKBURN,
in whose career the senator is credlteu
with having taken deep interest.
That action added fuel to the flames
of Blackburn's wrath, and his intimate
friends here declare that when he
meets young Carlisle he will express
himself in such a way which Carlisle
will feel obliged to resent. Should
Blackburn do so there is no doubt that
Carlisle will do the resentinS without
DELAY. He is a very cool, neryy son
of Kentucky. and would have no more
hesitation in slapping Blackburns
face than he had in discharging clerks
whom Black 1urn had indOrsed.
1t is thorght that, while Blackburn
has let previous slap from another go
unnoticed he would be compelled to
resent such an attack from Logan Car
isle, even though he himself provoked
the assault There is but one way Tor
a .'Kentuckian and a gentleman TO
treat that kind of insult, hence the talk
of duel between the two. During the
latter part of the campaign just past
political feeling ran very high in Ken
lucky, and Senator Blackburn followed
Secretary Carlisle about through the
state, replying to his speeches and
haracterizing him personally in the
bittereSt terms. One thing that is said
to have CALLED Blackburn was Car
isles refusal to divide time with him,
and the senator declared from the plat
form that his opponent had always
been more noted for his discretion than
his valor.
On the night of Oct %, in public
speech in answer to one made by the
secretary of the treasury, Senator
Blackburn characterized the formers
remarks as the ''meanest, most con-
temptible mass of lies ever uttered"
and added that if Carlisle told the
truth about the currency he would be
in the penitentiary instead of the cab
met" 1t was said by Secretary Car
isles friends on this occasion that in
reading extracts from the formers
speeches Senator Blackburn substitute
ed the words free silver" for the word
dollars" in many instances, thus max
ing Carlisle's remarks seem absurd.

Loses Half of His Mustache.

Chicago, Nov 10.-John Wolf, sa-

Forty-seventh street, paid an election
bet yesterday to Police Justice Schultz,
of the Englewood police station.
Schultz is a Republican, says the Trib-
une, and Wolf a Democrat. The latter
said Altgeld would defeat Tanner and
Schultz could not see it that way. 1t
was decided that if Tanner We're de-
feated Justice Schultz would white
wash every piece Of coal Wolf had i'll
his cellar, and if Altgeld were defeated
then Wolf was to shave off one side Of
his elegant mustacEe and parade the
street wherever Schultz wanted him to
go. 1t was decided that Wolf had lost
his wager and he submitted to the
razor of the artist and the laughter of
friends and enemies.

Gould, ranchman in the Western part

head of sheep from the effects of
poison. OF late there have been many
losses to sheep owners, all apparently
from the same cause. In some cases
the owners were apprehensive that the
sheep had been poisoned by some ma
liciously inclined person or persons,
but this theory has now been explod-
ed. The cause is now attributed to the
animals eating poisonous weed, com
monty called loco weed which is al
