In MEMORIAM.
Dedicated TO the late Rev. Andrew
Moore. Pastor OF The North
Baptist Church, Jersey

Loving hands lie limp and idle,
breaking hearts will ache tonight;
Draw the veil, oh! pitying angel
Draw the veil on mortal sight.
Human pity cannot soften
Mortal grief, so woeful deep;
guardian spirit do not chide them,
Let them sob and moan and weep.
Could we seek to stay thy sorrow
While our Zion weeps for thee!
Stunned with grief in thy frail weakness.
It's a hard and stern decree.
Rachel weeping for her children
Is an old and anguished cry;
Now our Zion droops In mourning
That our brother dear must die.
With Christian heart and helping hand,
With poets soul and cultured mind:
A guide, a light, IN upright man
Hc was friend and brother kind.
And now his flock is hushed in sorrow.
1t bows before a hallowed tomb;
Dust to dust. the sad old story,
Fails to dissipate the gloom.
From the fond wife's lingering kiss.
From the church he loved so much:
From the one babe that he blessed,
From the dear friends loving touch.
From the arms that fain would hold him,
From such love so sternly called;
Lift thine eyes, o stricken mourner!
ia Aaiti hoW 10 psnoiu.
In that glorious faith-built circle,
From all pain and sorrow healed.
All his manly vigor sparkles
As new glories revealed.
From the conflict Of the hour,
OF this life he's called to rest;
Ere times hand had Slapped his power,
Or bereavement pierced his breast.
Now our heads are bowed in sorrow.
Mutual love the stronger felt;
In this fire of keen affection
Dross will burn and ice will melt.
There is something in this lesson
His living voice could never teach;
His mute lips his late Endeavor,
Useful sermons now may preach.
This deep grief so fifty shows us
Such transcendent blessings given,
The immortality of love:
Our future need of heaven.
And from out this holy sorrow,
Peaceful fruit will spring in time,
Like a benediction softly
Failing on a sanity shrine.

BOARD OF OFFICERS.

The Board of Officers of the Fourth
Regiment held its quarterly meeting last
night at the Armory. Chiefly routine
business was transacted. Two weeks ago
a rule was adopted by vot making it
necessary for officers to appear at board
meetings in uniform. Last night this was
reconsidered and ~rescinded.
After the meeting adjournment was
made to the squad-room where the quar-
terIy dinner was spread. There was some
difficulty in the matter of service: Only
two walters attended the wants of forty
nine officers who sat at the table. This
resulted in a general dissatisfaction
among the diners.

CONGRESS seems to be almost equally
near anarchy, at least as to its leader
ship. The House has for the worst pos
sible purposes passed a tariff bill, the
inevitable esults of which, if enacted,
would be to reduce the customs revenue
by many million dollars. It has passed
q bond bill which affords no relief what
eve to the situation. which. on the con-
itrary, accentuates all the evils from
which the Treasury suffers.
The Senate is shaping its way to in
crease the evil features of the tariff
bill and to reject even the p~retence of
relief which the pond bill affords. In
stead. it proposes to give the country
IA bill for the free and unlimited
coinage of silver.
PA bill forbidding any issue of bonds
TO keep up the gold reserve.
If all this is not anarchy. what is it?
Well. just this-the fruits of Republi-
can victory.

Journalistic Onslaughts on the Presi-

ton of the Monroe Doctrine to the stu
alton. our plain duty to insist on arbi-
moderation of the Presidents position.
In the next column. it excoriates the
President for an alleged attempt TO pre-
cipitate a war. 1t lampoons him and
ridicules him and reviles him. with an
u~nequailed wealth Of malicious inven-
fion.
In one column, the same paper proves
that there is no way to saw the coun-
try from being forced to a silver basis
except a bond issue. 1t proves hat
the financial SYSTEM which we suffer
under. has enabled the Syndicate"
capitalists to corner all the available
gold. so hat it is compulsory upon the
President to deal with it in order to
gain the relief which the country needs.

with an unparalleled extremity of sour
rilousness for dealing with the syndf-
cate, in tact. it would seem for issuing
bonds at all.
This sort of attitude towards the Pre-
sident and the Government of the coun-
try is mere anarchy. 1t is quite as for
midable as bomb-throwing. 1t is, in
fact. more dangerous to the public than
any form of physical violence. because
it is just as insidious as it is destruc-
tive.
When public opinion is blown and buff
feted by such wanton assauIts-prod-
ucts of vacuity of thought and reckless
ness of motive. we are dangerously
near chaos in our public affairs.

The Indetermina,e Sentence Fad.

1he gentlemen who favor the indeter-
inmate sentence for reformatory c~onvicts
display an amusing simplicity regarding
one feature of the arrangement. The
prisoner. when he goes in. they say. has
no idea how long he is in for. One of
them, the Rev. George c.. Maddox, puts it
this way
You see if a man is allowed to go be-
fore his reformation has been effected
where is the use of the Reformatory?
He might know that his maximum sem
tenee was four years and set all rules
at defiance.
IL there Is any maximum set by law,
the criminal is pretty sure to know it.
Even if the Judge merely says you
stand committed to the State Reforma-
tory he knows already that. he cannot
be held there longer than for ten years,
say, or five. He probably knew all this
before his arrest. If not, his counsel,
naturally, told him while he was await
ing trial.
OF course, if there is no maximum, if
the sentence is really indeterrninate, then
he cannot know how long he may be
held. But this system is, for other OBJ
vious reasons. so detestable that assured
" the State Of New Jersey will never
rountsnance it.
AS a simple matter OF fact, the indie
terminate sentence has been no more
successful than any other in checking
