THERE is one strong card the Regular
County Committee could play at this
time, which would secure the county and
cover their enemies with confusion. This
would be to repeal the unqualified en-
dorsement of the Popocratic candidates,
and place the Palmer and Buckner ticket
on the same plane with it as deserving the
supper of Democrats.
1t would be just as well for the lead
ers to throw off the mask and admit that
Organism is dead beyond hope in the
Nation, in the State, in the county and
in every section of the county. What is
the use of fighting for mere disaster,
when disaster is written upon the firma-
ment in letters that ali but the blind

The total registration In, the city shows
an increase of 5,2S7 over November, 1896,
when the city total was Aisle. The num-
Der of voters registered in the city is not
as large as In 1894. however. when it
reached the total of 1921, or 3,S19 more
than this year.
But personal registration was not re-
quired in 1894, and many of the names
registered were carried over from the
former year. This was demonstrated in
1895, when the total city vote for Gov
ernor was considerably in excess of the
total vote for Congress in 1894, although
the total number of votes registered in
1895 was 8, los less than in 1894.
The total registration in the county is
7,51S in excess of the total registration
in the county in 1895, when it was only
63, 456, with one more registry day for
the county, outside of Newark.

Americans There Ask for Diplomatic Rep
resentation.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 2S.-Secretary Olncy
has received by cable an appeal from the
American residents at Johannesburg
praying that diplomatic representative
of the United States bo sent into tho
Transyaal to look after their interests.
Nothing is said In the cablegram in the
way of direct suggestion that our govern
mcnt intervene TO secure from the Trans
yaal government fair treatment politically
for resident Americans. At present the
United States Is without diplomatic rep
sesentative In all Africa save In Liberia,
and all of our diplomatic business with
that continent Is done through the mo-
dium OF the United States representatives
at the home governments of the African
colonies In Europe
It is only within the past two years that
va have had even a consular officer ut
Johannesburg, and he Is nothing more
than an agent accountable to tho United
Stales consul at Cape Colony, Mr. Knight.
lhe president might OF his own instance
send a commissioner To the Transvaal Tor
a special occasion, but II 1t Is desired to
maintain permanent diplomatic repro
sentative there, which recent events
would seem 10 indicate is necessary, this
can be done only by authority OF congress,
