All the old favorites, too, are
here, but many of them improved.
The elephants, camels and goats

NOTES AND OPINIONS.

The Hon. William Jennings Bryan's
performances in Iowa, Ohio and Kansas
seem to have had the usual effect Where
ever he went he reduced his vote.-N. Y.
Sun.
According to official reports of the
United States, prepared by Democratic
free-trade administration, the farmers OF
the country lost more than million dol
lars year by the decreased consumption
and decreased values of their products
during Cleveland's last administration.
Shortly before his death, Roscoe Conk-
ling said that the next great issue that
would come before the American people
would be immigration. The issue has
come, and in very unpleasant form. At
the last session of Congress a German
steamship company threatened to defeat a
Congressman unless he did its bidding. 1t
is perhaps as well that the country should
understand that the interests bent on
flooding our ports with undesirable immi
grants are not going to yield without a
hard fight
Congress passed an act of exclusion, but
President Cleveland seized the last chance
of his administration and kept a whole
some law off the statute books Camden
Telegraph.
The chief feature of the elections every-
where is the apathy manifested BY the
electors. There is falling off in the vote
of both parties, and while the Democrats
show relative gains when compared with
the phenomenal Presidential vote of last
year, the stay-at-home vote is made of
nearly an equal percentage of both parties.
Considering, too, the inevitable reaction
from great vote like that of last year, the
result is not surprising. Taking the cleo
ton altogether the cause of sound money
has been sustained, and that is sufficient
cause for gratitude. The American people
decided last year that there shall be no
tampering with the existing standard of
money, and no Establishments of oratorv
or appeals to class prejudice have been
able to make them reverse that decision
Chicago 71meS-Herald.
Republican success in Maryland is es-
pecially welcome because it is a victory
not only over Democracy but also over
Republican bossism. Senator Yelling
ton who tried to copy Senator German in
party dictatorship was emphatically aud
conspicuously repudiated by the Republi-
can State Convention, and he resigned his
Craftsmanship and retired in huff to his
home. The only part he played in the
campaign was to send out statement pre-
dieting Republican defeat. This made
the issue in Maryland direct one against
bossism and there was no alternative Of
fered of accepting Republican boss for a
Democratic boss. Such double victory
is rarely won in one year by any party
and the Republicans are to be congratulate
ed on their success. Politics in Maryland
and everywhere will be more wholesome
and more inviting for this result-Paila

WITH the large Republican majorities
of the past five years as basis, the name
of Joshua E. Borton should be in the list
of Senators-e1ect, but it is recorded other
wise, despite the fact that the Assembly
candidates on the Republican ticket in
this county have majority of about 1000
There is reason for this result which
Democratic Doodle, . democratic wealth
err" and the like will not explain, "Op-
position to bossism" will. The candidate
for Senator was forced on the ticket
against the wishes of the people. The
same elements that aided in the defeat of
ex-Sheriff Hays for Sheriff and for Sena-
tor, and Gen. Grubb for Governor, were
the most active in framing the head of
the ticket. Do not misunderstood. We
do not say that all who helped Joshua E.
Borton opposed those we mention, but
that those who did so oppose were active
in Borton's behalf And that element,
which is either "ru1e or ruin, is response
BILE for the election of a Democratic Sena-
tor. Prior to the convention they were
told that it would be a fatal mistake to
ignore the demands of the people, but Sc
cure in the idea that they could nominate
their man, and that nomination would
be equivalent to election, they displayed
an insolence that grated harshly and
brought forth rebuke that ought to be
felt. These are the plain facts. Joshua
E. Borton was not defeated because of any
animus against him personally, but he
went down on account of the company he
was in. To be sure there were other Re-
publican candidates for Senator who were
defeated, but if you will look closely into
those cases you will see that they were
similar to Burlington county-bossism
was attempted. The outcome of Tues
days election should be lesson to the
men who are directly responsible for the
defeat of Joshua E. Borton. If they b ad
allowed the people hearing in the NOM
nations the verdict would have been diff
ferent, but they held their personal in
terests above those of the party, and car
ried their selfshness to such an extreme
that they brought defeat not only upon
themselves but upon the party to which
they owe much of their present prosperity

Only Two Steps
TOChristmas

November ushers in the feast
season of the year. Thanksgiving
next. Then Christmas.
There would be no thanksgiving
bounty but for forethought-sun-
shine and rain alone make few
crops worth the picking. There
must have been planting and care
taking.
There can be forethought for the
gift season as well. Let it start
now.
Stocks are at full tide-greater
by third than at any Christmas
time before.
The charm of first pick awaits
earliest corners.
1t seems odd to talk of bargains"
at this time of year-the storekeep-
ers' harvest. Merchants have made
you come to look for high prices at
this season. But do you object to
Surprises3 Here is one.
We have bought out a maker of
Sterling Silver Tableware
and NiCknaCkS
and now start the selling of the
stock-fne goods. Largely hand
chased-Some beautiful pieces of
repouSse work in the lot. Then
hundreds and hundreds of little
pieces-bon bon dishes, ring stands
and what-not. There are quite
charming tea sets for SPOTS and
Whereabouts. beautiful pitchers at
$50 and $25, as we'll as dainty lit
tie pepper shakers at $1.25. Chill
dren's cups at 1925 and more, and
handsome fruit bowls at $13. so and
$15-but pick where you will-you
never bought handsomely wrought
silver so CLOSE TO BULLION VALUE.
There are few duplicates, so, of
course, early choosing has its ad-
vantages. AND CHRISTMAS GIFTS
ARE EASY TO KEEP.

"A rather queer kind of justice was adj
ministered in Justice Williams court in
Atlantic City, Wednesday afternoon, when
Theodore Reed, former employe of the
National Hotel, was charged with killing
chicken, and was ordered to leave the
city therefor. The simple case consumed
an hour. Reed admitted killing the chick
en-, but declared that it was accidental
murder" as he tripped and fell upon the
fowl. When half dozen witnesses had
failed to give convincing evidence of his
guilt, the court ordered Reed to leave the
town anyhow.
