This papcr is Democratic in principles
and & Independent in its vietcs on all local
questions.


II is a pity the campaign did not last q
week or two longer. The Republican can
didafes and their oyer-zeaIous supporters
have been showing themselves In their
true character the last few days. and, II
they had only a little more rope. they
would not receive any votes at all except
their own.
Mr.. Erwin with his k-now-nothing cir
eular affords & pretty spectacle for an
american city-a candidate for the votes
OF the people, who appeals to the most
un-American Of all sentiments, religious
and race prejudice, and tries to win
power for himself by infiaming his fellow
citizens with hatred of each other.
This man has certainly degraded himself
In no common way in this election. He
has pledged himself to the puritan element
and sold himself to the liquor men. He
has made himself an inevitable liar and
traitor. II he were elected, 1t would be
impossible for him to avoid playing re-
ereant to some of his promises and pro-
sessfons and ~betraying one or the other
class for whose vote he bid. But the
browning infamy of his campaign was
the circular. which 1.-THE News published
yesterday. in which he secretly, in under
hand fashion. like a sneak and a coward,
implored the assistance of one element of
citizenship On the ground that he was
banded with them in hostility to their
neighbors.
Enough of Mr.. Erwin. His political
death knell has been runs.
Blu there hobs up upon the horizon as a
campaign ruffian and bully Mr.. Marshall
Van Wrinkle. who says of the Democratic
Assembly candidates that they are shyster
lawyers looking for employment. and who
arraigns one of them as a hypocrite be-
u he is a teacher In a Sunday school.
Perhaps, If enc could stoop to Mr.. Van
Wrinkles level. a very pertinent question
might be asked about his status prior to
the time when Brother James s. Erwin
took him up. But we will LET that pass,
BY his dastardly attack upon one of the
most highly esteemed men In Jer-
sey City, Mr.. Van Wrinkle did neither him
self nor his party any good. Even the
MOST ~prejudiced partisan will not swallow
the proposition that a man becomes a
hypocrits by being a Sunday school officer
n a Democrat at The same time. This
Is a Burchardian view of the case. against
which the average instinct Of decency and
fair play. whether among Republicans or
Democrats, will be sure to revolt. Moth
ing can be more offensive than the effort
to drag private conscience and private life
into the political arena. The people
abonninate 1t. and beyond all doubt the
answer to Mr.. Van Wrinkles outburst of
h~lackguardism will be to place the man
whom he assailed at or near the head Of
mis- ticket.

THE Moth and tAs Plane" at the
Academy of Music.

uovers of the problem play" have a
treat in store for them this week at the
Academy of Music, where Mr. Clyde
Fftch,s drama. The Moth and the
Flame" Is presented by an excellent
company, of which Mr.. Herbert Kelcey
and Miss EfHe Shannon are the bright,
particular stars. The play is not In al
respects O. pleasant one. The lessons II
| teaches are too sharp to be wholly en-
joyable, but the interest never flags. Tne
situations are those of every day society
| life. with just enough exaggeratfon, to
make them go on the stage. The views
| expressed are those we utter daily, and
| when the final catastrophe comes botn
actors and audience exclaim, This thing
happens every day" The queer thing is
that men as well as women applaud the
heroine's action and rejoice in the down
fall of vice, while it is doubtful if many
of the women looking on would have done
as she did or If they would have been ad-
vised to the act by the men.
1t is to be hoped devoutly. however, that
villains Of the Ned Fletcher type are few
and far between. Many of his faults are
common perhaps to his sex, but when 1t
comes to escaping the penalty of iniquity
at the cost of the victims character most
men would, we fancy. stop short. Then,
again, it is an extremity of baseness to
attempt to force a marriage on a girl at
the price of her dead fathers reputation,
especially as the secret Of his downfall
had been impaired under confidential and
extraordinary circumstances We think a
man OF this calibre would have failed to
win such a girl as Marion Wolton is.

villain last night. He played the part as
to the n born n won applause and
Kisses In abewildering combination. SO that
he must nave wondered whether the audi
ence most approved him for his art or
abhorred him for the yillainy he depicted.
Miss Shannon is too old a favorite with
Jersey City people to make it necessary
to point out in detail the merits of her
performance. In the first act she dis
played a quiet force In keeping with the
character she interpreted. In the second
act as she rose to tragic heights when, APP
palled by her lovers revelation of vice,
she r~enounees him with the cry of oward.
Miss Shannon was natural and tender and
received applause at every step.
The scene In the church is very good. 1t
holds the mirror up to Nature with a
faithfulness that causes one to vince even
while one smiles. Are we like that, we

famous drama, THE Heart of Maryland,
which is to be presented at the Academy
of Music week beginning Monday, No
10, is but one-half as effective and
as humanely realistic a portraiture of
Southern character and it's picturesque
and luxurious home life, of the manhood,
and the charm and beauties of the
~womanhood. of its men and women in
the higher and nobler condition of their
social and heroic nature, there can be but
little wonder at the enormous success 1t
has attained not only throughout this
country but as largely in the greater
European cities. The play comes to US as
having deservedly won the highest critical
laudation and the most absolute of popu-
lar approval. not only upon the idyllic
nature of its story of love and war, but
the force of its text, the absorbing interest
of its incidents and the romantic realism
and dramatic force of numerous artists
included In the cast.
