services. He said that he protested
against the bill in the interest of the com
mon people throughout the State. He
thought the farmers paid their full por-
tion of taxes through the heavy freight
charges made by the railroads of the
State.
Senator Kuhl, of Hunterdon county,
also opposed the bill, saying that the
farmers in general were opposed to send
ing paid troops to Washington. Then,
too, he thought, even if the measure did
pass, there would be favoritism shown in
the selection of the troops to make the
Journey. Senator Sk.rm denied that
their would be any discrimination in the
selection of the guardsmen.
The bill was defeated by the adverse
vote of Senators Barber, Kuhl,
Gould, Miller, Parry and Ross. There
were nine votes in favor of the bill. but
this was two less than the necessary ma
jority. The nine votes were cast by
Senators Francis, II. W. johnson, Reed,
Skirm, Stanger, Stokes, Voorhees,, Vree.

Senators were absent when the bill wa,

larly high as a catarrh medicine. Ely

experience as druggists and pharmacists,
and remedy coming from such a source

should inspire confidence in their cataIrh

1t is a pretty wei settled fact that
reither Governor Griggs, Joha Kean nor
any other Req ublicau will bs allowed to
walk off with Jim Smiths chair in the
United States Senate, without at least a
protest from that gentleman. There is
every reason for believing, says the New
York Tribune, that he has already begun
active work to accomplish his own re-
election, but has bigger job on hand
than when he side-tracked Governor
Albeit. Then he had a Democratic
Legislature, now he has one to get. The
eight State Senators elected last Nov >
ember will, if they live, have vote iu
the election of Senator Smiths successor;
seven of them are Republicans. Next
November Senators are to be chosen in
Cape May, Burlington, Middlesex,
Passaic. Sussex and Hunterdon; of these
counties Hunterdon is the only one now
represented by Democrat. The Demo.
erats are laying plans to capture all six
and they do not hesitate to say that sue
cess awaits them in Middlesex, Passaic,
Sussex and Hunterdon. Even though
their hopes were realized-and that is
not probable-they could not possibly
have q majority in the Senate of 1899, as
all but two of the counties electing
Senators next year are sure to return
Republicans. Nevertheless it will re-
quire all the wisdom and foresight Of
the Republican leaders to prevent the
Demos ats from getting a plausible cry

either branch of the Legislature at the

bly, on Tuesday. 1t was bill introduced
by Mr.. Scovel, of Camden, to compel
persons gettir g summons and warrants
from justices of the peacs to pay fee of

people rushing to justices and bringing
actions of trivial causes, giving a great
amount of unnecessary work for the

advocated by Mr.. Bridge, of Passaic,

Congressman Loudenslager has been

answers which shall show what they
desire on the bject of the revision of the
tariff. He has received a large number
of replies, and the Washington CORES,

that specimen letter is one received from

seirited colloquy on the question of tariff
reform. He himself was then unknown

tinctured with free trade. In the letter
received from this man, Mr.. Louder

gresham is informed that agricultural
items generelly should be advanced on the
Mckinley act rates from so to 100 per
cent. Mr.. Loudenslager seems to think
that this proves the rapid growth of
protectionist sentiment in great pre-

1t said that General Harrison, in this
article, has delivered himself with great
directness and vigor, relative to the
annoyances that are visited upon Chief
Executive by persistent office seekers.
and he suggest unique plan, by which
the Presidents burdens in that direction
could be greatly lightened, and he be
eDabed to devote more attention to more
important matters. A feature of the
article that will have timely interest to
those ambitious TO serve the country
under the incoming administration, des
crlbes very fully how the President
makes appointments to office. "a Day

cribed by one who has filled the exalted

The New Jersey editor of the New
York Tribune says many lawyers have
suggested that it would facilitate Justice
and greatly reduce the cost of it's admin
istration if all Police Justices, Justices of
the Peace and Recorders in the State had
final jurisdiction in petty larceny, assault
and battery and trifling malicious
mischief cases. The desirability of such
a measure is conceded by all impartial
observers, and if some of the lawyers
will draw bill covering the subject,
there will be no trouble about getting it
introduced and passed. 1t is a measure
greatly needed. Our criminal court
calendars are burdened every term with a
list of petty cases, the trial of which cost
the county thousands of dollars every
year, when they could just as we'll be
determined by a Justice of the Peace.
Such law would be in the interest of
economy, and ought to be enacted with
out delay. 1t would save Salem county
thousands of dollars, and we hope
Senator Miller will use his efforts to get
such law passed.

When we read the report in the daily

Democratic postmasters recently ap-
pointed by President Cleveland at
Swedesboro, Bridgeton, Atlantic City,
Paterson and other places in New Jersey
had been confirmed by the Senate, we.
were triied surprised, and wondered
where Senator Sewell was. and why he
allowed these places to be pre- empted by
the Democrats on the eve of Republi-
can administration. 1t now appears that
it was sharp move on the part of Sena-
tor Smith, and done during the absence
of Senator Sewey on committee business.
The Senator has secured motion to re.
call the confirmations, and will make an
effort to have the Senate reconsider its
action. Whether he will succeed or not
is question, as the bugbear of Sena.
torial courtesy may stalk across the
chamber in time to prevent such action.
