1t is Il real pleasure to honest Demo
Gratis to see the State and many county
party organizations coming to their senses
and casting the burden Of Organism
from their shoulders. With silver thrown
down by the wayside. with anarchy left
on the grave of last years hopes, the
party has new vigor. new impetus 1t
makes a new start, and victory is the
goal.
The friends of gold, who are true and
sincere Democrats or all the real issues
OF the party, will meet the advance thus
made half way. They Will rally TO the
support of the Assembly and Senatorial
tickets, all over the State, and. next year,
they viii help elect d Democratic Cover
nor. All are agreed upon the State is
sues.
No good Democrat will refuse the olive
branch thus held out. Of course the Sc
cession from silver is final. 1t is not
put that way. The committeeman, nat
uraliy, '1et themselves down easy" But
for all the chance there is of n back
sliding, it would be puerile TO stand out,
on the form Of expression In which the
reputation is made. The present action
is anal, and SO every sensible man will
take it, and act accordingly.
Union and victory are now the watch
words of the State Democracy.

1t is a pity Miss Mary A. Philbrook
eouid find nothing TO think well of in Jer-
sey City. The pity, however, is rather
for Fer than for the city. One way or
another, Miss Philbrook las managed to
advertise herself a good deal as a product
of the place, and to hew for herself a not
altogether unsuccessful career u of
such rough material as it affords. That
she should now address her talents to
the abuse of the city smacks rather OF
ingratitude, and is indeed somewhat
pitifui.
Jersey City has much to be proud of,
and much that it's well disposed sons and
daughters are proud of. What it has to
be ashamed of is chiefly an element who
use all its advantages for their W
profit, and who turn their backs on it
when they have got all there is in it for
them and then leave it only hard words.
The truth is Jersey City is very well
UP TO the times in all the essentials of
municipal life. What we are chiefly
lacking in is external appearance, and
even in this respect the city improves
weekly and daily. The opening and i'm
provement of new streets on the Hill is
attended by the growth of new residences
which would be an ornament anywhere,
and down town the ramshackle structures
which were built when DR.. Quimby was
a young man, are slowly but surely Civ
ing way to modern, handsome buildings.
The work of repayment, which also
progresses, Is also helping to beautify
the lower section of the city Miss Phil
brook, If she do not talk herself to
death, may live to see Jersey City rival
Newark or Brooklyn in every sort of at
tractiveness.
MISS PHILBROOK, incidentally, has
her little fling at Bob" Davis. Well,
ne sEvening Journal" has been busy fof
some weeks showing UP the conditions
that existed under a Republican regime,
Water Board owned by Sam Dickin-
son. Miss Phiibrook must also have
heard more or less about the doings OF
the Hudson County Board Of Freei1olders
Of which Mr.. Edward W. woolley is boss
If she looks at the facts with that ain
and impartial judgment, for which the
81 a -
will lave to admit the supreme reign Of
Mr.. Davis is. on the whole. the less evi
of the two.
