The Hudson County Democratic Con-
vention made this ringing declaration in
favor of the equal taxation demanded by
our Constitution:
We declare ourselves most unequivocal-
~ in favor of equal taxation. Ky equal
taxation we do not mean any of the dis
honest and deceptive substitutes for equal
taxation with which Republican Leglsla-
lures have so long and SO systematically
deluded the people and betrayed their
rights. BY equal taxation We mean sim
ply and purely equal taxation, whereby
ali property OF every kind by wbomsoeger
held, whether by corporations. or by indi-
viduals (save such as is used for religions,
charitable or educational purposes), shall
bear equally the burden of taxation.
This sort Of equal taxation would add
to the tax rolls of the counties of the State
oyer 500 900. 900, which now pays beg
carly one-haif of one per cent into the
State Treasury, thence to be squandered on
stone palaces for convicts and the insane
and on luxurious armories for the militia.

Republican politicians accuse past Demo-
cratic administrations in this State of ex-
travagance and corruptions, but the record
shows that under the present regime,
which was inaugursted in the name of re-

Of New Jersey can readily perceive from
official figures which party is the most

Every Democrat in this county should
consider it among the highest of his politi-
cal privileges to vote for Capt Edward L
Stratton, their nominee for Assembly. His
candidacy appeals, too. to all patriotic citi-
zens. While his body is shattered by a
service which brought honor to his county,
State and the nation, yet his mind is clear
and vigorous, and he is equipped to render
as valuable legislative service as he did
with the sword in the sos. Give him this
honor. voters

this year is an honest Legislature. The

Washington. Oct 20-A powerful
agitation has commenced in Germany
against the high duties and numerous
restrictions by which the government
has nearly stopped the importation of
live animals and greatly increased the
price of meat products. This is the
substance of a report made to the state
department by Dean Mason, vice and
deputy consul general at Frankfort He
says that the price of meat has in
creased SO that there is decided de-
crease In the consumption. One re-
suit of this high price has been a
marked increase in the amount of cured
meat imported. This, Mr. Mason says,
is peculiarly advantageous to the Uni
ted States, which can export meat pro-
ducts to Germany far more readily
than live stock.

The late Thomas F. Bayard's estate is
estimated in Delaware to be worth about
SIS, 900, including what he inherited. Mr..
Bayard was in public life almost contin-
uously for more than thirty years. He
might have been rich man had he enter
tanned easy-going ideas as to the honor
which public man should cultivate.
But he never had plum tree to shake,
and the name for probity which be left
behind will be one of the choicest MEM
ORANGES of his career. Probably Senator
Quay made more money in Sugar Trust
stock operations, when he was engaged in
legislating on the tariff, than Mr.. Bayard
died, possessed of as the fruits of an ardu-
GUS and honorable public career. But then
there are recompenses. Mr.. Bayard bad
something money cannot buy for the
Penns glvania Senator.

All personal preference aside, the Dem
ocratic Convention could not have named
a more creditahle and worthy candidate
than Elvin w. Crane, OF Essex.
Born in 1858 OF family connected with
the earliest history of East Jersey, Mr..
Cranes whole life has been spent in the
State, and ia touch with it's great move
ments and purposes. Entering the Office
of the late Prosecutor Abeei, as a poor boy,
he soon mastered the important work of
the Office and became most valuable aid,
and later was appointed assistant prosecu
tor. in the closing years Of Col. Abeels
term and during Prosecutor Keen's admin
istration. In 1889 be was appointed by
Governor Green to be prosecutor and reap
pointed by Governor Werts in 1894.
In all the years Of his public service he
has been careful and considerate in the
exercise of the powers of his great Office !;
fearless in the acceptance of its responsible
ties, and performance of its duties, and
most scrupulous in his faithful perior.
nance of the trust reposed him. In all
his record no man can point to q single
misuse or abuse of the powers confded to
HIM. Ia 1889 he was elected to the As
sembly from the Sixth district of Essex
and served his term acceptably TO his
country and beneficially to the State. He
is in the full vIgor of an intelligent man
hood, enriched by great experience with
public men and measures, of an evenly
balanced mind, of thorough acquaintance
with the State and its institutions, and of a
tireless vigor in the performance of his
public duties. His victory was achieved
by the young men of Newark, of whom he
has been and is fayorite, aud who will
back his nomination with Jealous efforts
for his election.
His is an ideal nomination and success

" A party that juggles with the people
over such an important matter as honesty
has no business or right to ask the conf
dence of the people"
The above quoted paragraph is from
yesterdays Constitution, and we are able to
say, with all frankness, that we concur in
it's sentiment. But we submit to a fair
people that it is an exceedingly cheeky
utterance from the paper that asks its
readers to cast their ballots for Henry G.
Loudenslager, General Sewell's Congress
s;onal candidate. That candidate stands
convicted by the Courts Of not only juggling
with honesty. but of actual dishonesty in
money transaction with his business part
ners. hence We emphasize the statement of
onr neighbor that he has 20 right to ask
the confidence Of the people" nor has the
Constitution nor any other public agency
right to ask it for him.

Governor Voorhees,, and will hold the same

raugement New Jersey will have enjoyed
the distinction of four Republican Cover

little State will survive this juggling with
its highest Office, but at the November
election the people will notify these traffick-

approve of quarterly terms in Governors

A Juror withdrawn and Case Goes
Over Until April.
Camden, N, J., Jan. 6.--The trial Of
ELI Shaw for the murder of his grand
mother, Mrs. Elizabeth Zane, which
began Monday. came to an abrupt and
unexpected ending yesterday when
Judge Garrison announced from the
bench that the trial as far as 1t had
proceeded would be withdrawn and a
new trial would begin In April. The
only explanation the court made was
that the defendant had asked that a
juror be Withdrawn. and. that con-
sultation with Prosecutor Jenkins and
Lawyer Harry Scovel, counsel for the
defendant, the court had decided to
grant the request. Edward Norcross,
foreman of the jury, was withdrawn as
a matter of form, 1t being known that
he was not the Objectionable juror.
Neither the court nor the counsel In
the case would give any explanation,
but the general impression is that the
juror objected to was Nelson w. Cox,
the last man drawn. 1t is said that he
is or was connected with the same lodge
of the Junior Order of American Me-
chanics that Shaw belonged to, and
which lodge had adopted resolutions
evincing faith in Shaw's innocence and
appropriating money for his defense.
Mr.. Cox subsequently stated he was
not now a member of the order, and
had not attended any meetings for Is
months. He believes, however, he was
the juror objected to. 1t was also
