How much may depend upon glove
tastenening was illustrated ut one Of
the Monson slate quarres in an adven-
ture which the person concerned would
not care TO repeat. He was derrick
man who stood on the brink OF one OF
the great chasms from which the slate
rock is hoisted His duty was to catch
hold Of the boom as 1t swung over The
bank and attach 1t to the crate to he
sent back into the pit. Standing upon
the very edge he reached out to catch
the hook which dangled near him II
was winter and he wore thick buck skin
gloves The hook slipped from him as
he leaned out but caught into the fas-
tening Of the glove. The swing of the
great boom took him off his feet in an
instant and carried him out into Gddy
space with his life depending on the
gloves holding fast. His whole weight
was hung on that button. and there was
n clear 175 feet of space between him
and the floor Of rock below. The
moments that passed before the boom
could be swung back over the bank
seemed like hours to him, but he got
there at last, safe and sound.

CornIsh,s Candidate.

The Sussex Register states the true
''inwardness" of Augustus w. Cutters
nomination in the following editorial:
Johnston Cornish possessed strong de-
sire to obtain the nomination for Con.
gress from this district and fully intended
to make fight for it until a short time
before the convention. Had he remained
in the race the nomination would have
gone to him, but the power behind the
throne stepped in and withdrew him from
the field.
MIR. Cornish then determined that Mr..
Cutler should be nominated and an ar
rangement was made between him and
Cutler to that end.
When the leaders arrived in Newton on
Monday night, it was given out that the
nomination would 60 to Morris county.
A proposition was made by the Morris
county people that the other counties,
Sussex, Warren and Hunterdon, should
ratify a candidate to be named by Morris
county. Mr.. Cornish was willing to agree
| to this upon condition that Morris would
name MIR. Cutler. The Morris delegation
insisted that they should be allowed to
name their own candidate, but Cornish
! would not yield. The Morris delegation
were willing to present a candidate but
wished to be left free TO select whom they
might themselves choose, and tits an open
secret that large majority of that delega-
ton were opposed to Cutler and favored
ex-senator Elias G. Drake.
On Tuesday morning the Morris dele
gates gave in to Cornish and consented to
present his choice to the convention for
nomination.
Johnston Cornish dictated the nomina-
ton OF Mr.. Cutler, and the convention
came together to ratify the Cornish selec-
| ton.
| When Cornish was persuaded to step
aside, he determined to have a candidate
suitable to himself and in Mr.. Cutler he
found such man. In the hands of the
Cornishes, father and son, Mr.. Cutler will
be as clay in the hands of the potter.
What the agreement was between Cor
nish and Son, dealers in organs, on the
one hand, and Mr.. Cutler on the other
hand, it is not necessary to state, but that
the agreement was explicit aud definite
will be we'll understood when it is known
that Johnston Cornish paid the expenses
at the Newton convention for the farmer
candidate.
And yet there are some persons who
would have the public believe that Mr..
Cutler is the candidate of the people
Nevertheless it would seem that Cornish
"pays the freight.

Two Answers to the Main Question.

Two Answers to the Main Question.
Netcark E0enag Ne,cs.
The head of the Populistic Presidential
ticket and one of its chiefest supporters
were heard 10 New Jersey yesterday.
The Hon. Pitchfork Tillman took q shy at
the v1ters at the Mt. Holly fair, while MIR.
Bryan made an express train fortune tell
ing excursion through the upper tier OF
counter.
The one vital question of interest to the
great mass of people was touched upon by
these promising statesmen. 1t is interest
ing TO note the difference in the style in
which these two men dismissed this per-
sistent and to them embarrassing ques-
ton.
While Mr.. Tilman was spouting his hos-
test adjectives at the gold bugs, and the
"rolten leaders" of New Jersey, some
hard headed aud hard listed son Of toll
demanded an answer to this "How are
workingmen 10 get hold Of this free sill.
yer, il the Popnlsts should win 7" Here
was Mr.. Tilman's opportunity. lie didn't
miss it. With the frankness of the man,
he pitchforked a truthful reply into the
midst OF the crowd and with telling effect.
"By working for it, !" he shouted
At Lamberlville Mr.. Bryan touched on
the same question. AS soon as he struck
II he dropped into his Delphic style OF
fortune telling. BE il observed that Mr.
BRYAN is not much for bluntnrss, but he is
strong on prophecy. Here's the way he
told the people OF Lambertville how the
free coinage hcresy was going to put mo-
ney into their pockets.
"They ask us how the free coinage Of
silver is going to help the people. Let me
tell you. 1t puts more money in C ircula'
ton, and when there is more money in
circulation there is better chance for
each man to get money"
1t will be observed that there is strik
ing difference in the views on this subject
as advanced by the head of the Populislic
tick ct and its chief supporter Between
the smooth and slick prophecy OF Mr..
Bryan and the blunt and rugged declara-
ton OF Mr.. Tillman, there is marked
difference. Most any man will be likely
to admit to himself that as between these
two statements the pltchfork Popu.ist pro
claims the truth In manner so conyinc-
Ing that when his utterance Is set side by
side with that OF Mr.. Bryan, the easy
promises that everybody shall be richer II
he be elected, take on the appearance oil
| demagogic buncombe.
