threatens to deluge the country with flat
money.

own service demands it,
1t calls for such restraint upon the
Federal courts as would render them i'm

1t insists upon reputation of the
public faith, and demands legislation
which would destroy the obligation of

1t Whites the United States Supreme
Court for its decision on the Income Tax
law, and demands that said decision be
overturned as soon as the court can be so
reconstructed as TO make it possible.
II assails the national banks, which

the wiping out of all national bank cur

the Democratic declaration of principles.

Mayor Bray, OF our city, has a vivid
Imagination. Instead of going into poll
tics, he ought to have taken up story
writing. II any one doubts it, let him
read the following from the Doylesto'en
Democrat:
"Among the prominent callers at the
Democrat office on Saturday was Mayor
Stacy b. Bray, of Lambertville, N, j.
Mayor Bray is one OF the best known and
slaunehesl Democrats of the metropolis
of EIunterdon county, and he says
his city will undoubtedly give one Of
the largest Democratic majorities at
the coming Presidential election which
has been known there for years. Mr..
Bray also says that il is really surprising
to note how popular the free silver idea
is among the farmers Of Hunierdon eoun-
ty. Hundreds OF Republican AS well AS
Democratic agriculturalists Of the county
earnestly advocate the election of Bryan
and Sewell, says the Mayor. and the cleo
ton in the county this fall will turn out
a verlahle Democratic landslide.
Lambcnville will give u very much
greater Republican vote this Fall than il
has ever before given. We believe this
is also true Of the county.

careful how they invest in n lower priced

influence of Alcohol and Longevity.

DR.. Crothers, of Hartford, who has
situations for the inebrate and insane,
says that "inebIieiy is the active cause
of from 10 TO 80 per cent. OF all insanity !;
from 80 to 80 per cent. Of all all idocy !;
from 60 to 90 per cent. OF all paupensm,
and from 30 to SO per cent. OF all crime !"
then asks the question, "Who can esti-
mate the relief OF the taxpayers by the
removal OF the perils TO both property and
life from drunkenness Z"
DR.. Day, OF Boston, in his late annual
report OF the Washington Home for the
Treatment of Inebriates, says; ION the
individual the effect OF vicious alcoholic
indulgence is disease OF the body. Sooner
or later ii must snccumb. Disease OF the
mind is not far of. 1t may be delirium
or insanity"
aulopsies OF The Philadelphia Hospital
that in 900 chronic aleoholsts nearly 90
per cent. had fatty degeneration of the
liver; 90 per cent had congestion, or a
dropsical state OF the brain; the same
number an inflamed or degenerated
stomach while notquite one per cent. had
normal kidneys.
TO be convinced of the cause of &C
much paupersm in the country, we have
only TO examine the statistics of the
liquor traffic in the United States. "Ac.
cording TO the report OF the Internal
Revenue Commissioner Mills for the year
1892, the patrons OF the saloons paid
5000, 900, 900 for whisky and $6l7, $685.
400 for beer, total of 81, 226, 200, AGO,
the interest on which, for one minute,
at six per cent per annum, ia IS, 5l6 .6S. y
This would more than pay of the national
debt, and would feed and clothe all the
poor OF the country.
When we look abroad over the world,
and take birds eye view of the evil
effects OF intemperanee in its various
asp, cts, its production Of disease and
death, crimes innumerable, with general
decentralization, we are astonished that any
thinking man, much less physician,
should come 10 the conclusion that drink
ing men and drunkards enjoy greater
longevity than total abstainers. Scientific

The Htnterdon Democrat and the
Democrat advertiser put at the head Of
their columns Last week the names of the
candidates nominated at Chicago, but
with evidences that the dose is somewhat
nauseous. Both papers, however, con-
clude, in effect, that party is more than
principle, and that when their party
adopts principles never before enuncialed
by it, and which are against the best in
terests of the people, it is the duty of all
Democrats To meekly ego it blind, for
the sake of tho party. However, the
moral effect of the recent teachings OF
both papers on the currency question will
have its influence on the voters.

Elk Secretary of the Navy William [.
Whitney, who made such vigorous fight
for sound money at Chicago, has been
reported as favoring the endorsement of
the Chicago nominees, Bryan and Sewall,
by the Sound money Democrats of New
York State. Nobody, keeping in mind
Mr.. Whitney's declaration, will be sur
prised to learn that he positively denies
having made any such recommendation.
More than that, he says that "there are
no possible conditions OF circumstances
that wonld induce me to vote for 1t to
assist It.. 1t would be as reasonable or
suppose that Cleveland himself would
stump the country for the free-silver,
Populist candidate.

We can conceive why people should
desire that some things might be cheap,
as, for instance, cheap clothing, shoes,
bread and warm Winter blankets for
spreads on beds of the little ones, and
the old ones, too but we cannot under
stand why wage-earners should want
cheap money-50- silver dollars in
payment of a 100 cent dollars work.
The money cannot be too good. The
better the money the better the pay /;
For, mind you, coined money is not a
commodity, but is the measure of it, and
silver dollar, given 10 payment of wages,
scales down the gold dollar about one half

gives no quarter to the enemies of the Re
public.
Ii will he with the winners in the coming
fight, or il will go down with the friends
OF honest money with its colors still

1t has never attempted to mislead the

1t has always told them the exact truth
as to the great public questions time 10

1t is telling them the exact truth now
when il says that the enemies Of the people
got control of the Democratic National
Convention they flouted and scorned the
old and tried leaders OF the party they put
forth in the name OF the party platform
dictated by Populists and Anarchists, and
in opposition to all the time.honored prln-
ciples of the party from Jefferson and
Jackson down to the last utterances OF the
party in National Convention assembled.
These bogus Democrats, who have thus
stolen the flag of the party, are hiring the
party and the country TO disgrace and dis
honor.
The Monmouth "Democrat' refuses 10

success of the principles then laid down.
