neighbor, Mr.. Jones, attracted by the
cries, rushed over and extricated the
almost submerged child. DR.. j. J. Rob-

heroic efforts of the neighbors were
seconded by medical skill. The mother

the quick action at last brought their
reward and the child exhibited signs of
returning life. Though the accident
happened about 2 o'clock, Willie, ap-
parently none the worse, was toddhng

Sol smIth Ru.seII,s success

New York city has a new ~favorite. 1t
is Sol Smith Russell, the comedian, who
has been visiting New York for years,
but never until the present time made
anything more than a passing impression
upon the th~eatregoers. Now, however,
he is in the second month of a crowd-at-
tracing engagement at the Garden
Theatre, and is so much in demand that
Charles Frohman, under whose direction
he is playing, is doing his best to cancel
all h comedians out-of-town contracts
with a view to keeping him indefinitely
at the Garden. The comedy in which Mr..
Russell appears is a Bachelors
Miss Martha Morton. 1t tells a pretty
and interesting story of which the hero
is a literary man, who engrossed all his
life in books, knows little of the wiles and
ways of the world, and who therefore
when he comes to feel the first touches
of the tender passion presents a droll and
c~harmingly awkward as well a comical
picture. The part fits Mr.. Russelrs quaint
and unctious method to a nicely and he
imparts his WI delightful personality to
it. He succeeds in getting close to the
hearts of his audience by his sympathetic
and natural touches. He has made
friends for himself and his agreeable
art of all the thousands who have seen
him at the Garden Theatre in "A

pressiveness of her art adds to the

This paper Is Democratic in principles

The Democratic Assembly Ticket.


: The Democratic Assembly ticket, which
viii be found at the head of this column
today, is one of unusual strength and
merit. 1t is made up in the main of just
such men as should be chosen to represent
the county. With such a delegation, Hud-
son will no longer be the silent sister in
the council of the counties. There will be
men to plan and men to speak and the
banner Democratic constituency will once
more have weight in the enactment of
laws.
Better than their ability is the fact that
the candidates are men of clean record.
There is nothing that even the tongue of
party malevolence can utter to injure
them in the eyes of the voters. AS the cam
paign progresses, they will make them
selves known to the people OF the county,
and it will be the privilege of The News
to aid in promoting the acquaintance.
They will speak freely their principles and
their plans. and they will pledge them
selves to uphold the cause of economy in
State expenditures and regard for the in
terests of the people at large in passing
to a cessation of corporation rule and
class dictation.
The present campaign is really one of
serious Importance. 1.-THE News publish
ed a day or two ago a table showing the
outrageous increase in State expenditures
since h Republican party gained control
OF the Legislature, and in particular since
the election of Governor Griggs. This
showing is calculated to produce alarm
in all thinking men. It means bankruptcy
of the State if the party of extravaganza
and deficiency is any longer left in con-
troll of its affairs. Then there are a num-
Der of measures affecting Hudson eoun-
ty in a direct way. The Equal Taxation
fight. in which Governor Griggs n the
other railroad tools in the Legislature
coerced Jersey City SO shamelessly, last
year, will have to be completed. The
Board of Freebooters must be legislated
out of existence and some new body, at
once honest and efficient, must be substi-
tuted for the rascals who wear the collar
of Edward W. Woolley.
These are only some of the things for
which the people will vote this year when
they vote the Democratic ticket. And
these alone are enough to insure an over
whelming victory from end to end of the
county.
