DEMOCRATIC DESPERATION.

The Democrats of Morris County
seem to have fallen in with the old
adage to the effect that where you
have no case it is we'll to abuse the
other side.
Mr., Baker, our nominee for Sheriff
is man Of business ability and in
tegrity, man whose record in pub
lie life as we'll as his private charac-
ter will bear the strictest scrutiny
He is thoroughly qualified for the
office of Sheriff On the other hand
his opponent Mr.. Porter, has nothing
to recommend him except that he is
known in certain circles as a "good
fellow. . OF course he is gentleman
of leisure and therefore without the
business training requisite to good
sheriff
The Democrats therefore, aided by
a villainous so called Prohibition or
gan held in we'll deserved contempt
for its scurrility, which, for reasons
well understood, is absolutely silent
as to the Democratic candidate, have
resorted to mud singing of the vilest
description. OF course, it would be
an easy matter to reply in kind, but
there is is no inducement to do so.
These contemplate methods hurt
only those who use them and even if
it were otherwise we should seorn
to stop to such measures.
= : Hon. Charles A. Baker will be
elected Sheriff of Morris County next
Tuesday by a majority all the larger
for the abuse he has suffered.
The Morris County chronicle. [volume] (Morristown, N.J.) 1877-1915, 1899-11-03
HON. CHARLES A. BAKER.


The Republican candidate for
Sheriff, the Hon. Charles A. Baker,
has been tried in public office and his
record stands out stainless in every
respect He made an efficient, indus
trious Assemblyman, carefully guard
ing the interests of his constituents
He is plain unassuming man, but
one whose business ability is above
the average. He will perform the
duties of the Sheriff's Office with sig
nal ability and will make no distine-
ton in his dealings with men and
measures so far as his official duties
are concerned. We are convinced
thoroughly of this fact from what we
have observed during the past two
weeks. We have noted with pleasure
his reputation and standing among
his own neighbors, at his home and
in the vicinity. He is we'll fitted in
every respect for the Office of Sheriff
and no amount of abuse on the part
of his opponents will affect those who
know him best.
We notice that the Democratic press
is catching at everything to publish
that can in any way injure the Re-
publican candidate for Sheriff. In
the personal article copied from the
Church and Home. y the prohibition
newspaper printed in this town, they
carefully eliminate the part referring
to Mr.. Porter All the rest of the
article is published. We will not
republish the slur on Mr.. Porter and
hope the other Republican newspapers
Of the county will follow our exam
pie in this respect. Nothing is gained
by personal abuse. The press in dis
cussing men and measures should
closely adhere to the political standing
and business ability of candidates and
not resort to mud throwing and per-
sonalities If candidates are low and
vile-we know of none such--then it
is the duty of the press to warn
voters. Nothing is gained by resort
ing to the abuse of candidates, and
the papers which have resorted to it
will injure their own candidates more
than those of the opposite party

WORK FOR REPUBLICANS.

Republicans of Morris County
should bestir themselves in the re-
naming days of the campaign. This
is an off year it is true, but there is
good reason why Morris County Re-
publicans should not go to sleep.at this
time. 1t is to be hoped that the County
Committeeman and leading Republi-
cans in each ward and township in the
County will endeavor to get out the
careless and Indifferent on election
day. Morris County ought not to lag
behind any year and especially not in
a year preceding a Presidential cleo
ton.
In any county the strength and
power of party depends upon its
activity. 1t ought not become listless
and careless because the odds are in
favor of it. AS eternal vigilance is
the price Of liberty, so is eternal
watchfulness and activity the price of
party success. The Republican ma
jority can only be sustained by earn
est active work in off years and every
year. Let Morris County Republicans
take off their coats and make the days
including Tuesday next count in work
done for the party.

THE GOLD PRODUCTION.

The attention of Mr.. Bryan is re-
spectfully called to the fact developed
from the recent report of the Director
of the Mint that one-half of the
worlds gold product for the last four
hundred years has been produced in
the last forty years.
The total gold production of the
world, from the discovery of America
to the present time is in round terms,
ten billion dollars, OF to be exact,
so, 1888, 059, 600, and of this amount
So, 341, $50, 600 or over one-half, has
been produced since 1860, and
50, $40, 260, 400, or over one fourth,
since 1886
The average production prior to
1865 was about $12, 900, 900 per annum /;
from 1860 to 1890, about ten times
that average per annum, and in 1899
it is at the rate of 1926, 600, 600 per
annum.
These startling facts facts showing
the rapid increase in gold productions
says the Trenton State Gazette, DEM
onstrate the absurdity of the claim
that the money metal of the World is
not being increased at a rate neces-
sary to keep pace with the increased
population or increased demands of
commerce.

MAKE IT AN CON YEAR. :"

The Democrats of this State have
not been able to disguise their strong
hope that through Republican "off
year" apathy it will be possible for
them to concentrate their efforts with
success in enough close counties to
wrest the management of State affairs
from the hands of the Republicans, who
have given the people of the COM
mon wealth an administration Of pub
lie affairs under which New Jersey
is enabled today to make the most re-
markable showing in all her history.
1t is the "same old gang" that is
working to regain control of this now
immensely prosperous and wealthy
State, and the possible immediate re-
suits of their success are enough to
impress all thinking citizens who
have the good of the State at heart
with the Importance of the result a
week hence. But a more Interior re-
suit deserves consideration. The
Democracy will be thrice happy if in
year preceding that in which Presi-
Dental electors are to be chosen it
can get control of the State Legisla-
ture and use the powerful political
influence thus gained for the strength
ening of the cause of Organism next
year. Gloucester County Republicans
ought to make this decidedly "on
year" by polling full vote and sup
porting the ticket most loyalty
Woodbury., N. J. Constitution
The same responsibility rests upon
the Republicans of Morris County as
upon the members of the party in
Gloucester Vote the straight Re
publican ticket, and also see that your
neighbor does.

WHY THEY WANT 1T.

The Democrats of Morris County
are very DESTROYS of getting hold of
the Sheriffs office in the hope that
they can strengthen their party
through its powers of patronage The
office, however, is just as important
to the Republicans as it is to the
Democrats and it is to be hoped that
every Republican will take care that
he is not misled by the discreditable
tactics of their opponents who openly
say that they desire the Sheriff S
Office more than any other If they
mean to act in the INSCRIPTIONS way
they have been doing recently their
reasons for the desire are obvious.

DEMOCRATIC CHANGE OF BASE.


The most remarkable case of politi-
cal repentance on record is that which
overlook the Union County Democrats
in their recent convention. OF course
they wanted to denounce trusts, etc,
and they said:
Our state has made herself odious
among the people of the Union.
Within our borders every trust finds a
home, and the people Of the United
States are robbed of millions of dol
lars annually by reason Of our laws.
We therefore pledge our support to the
repeal of all legislation under which
trusts are either fostered or allowed.
The original corporation law in
this state was passed in 1875 by a
Democratic Legislature (32 Republi
cans and 40 Democrats) and approved
by Democratic governor Joseph D.
Bedle) But the worst of all the cor
poration laws was passed in 1898,
when George I. Werts, Dem. was
governor and the legislature stood 55
Democrats to 26 Republicans. Two
laws were then enacted which were
remarkable for their favoring and
fostering of trusts. One provided that
a corporation could own the stock of
any other corporation; the other pro-
vided that companies doing the same
or similar business might consolidate
and issue new bonds and stocks to
any extent. These laws have been
somewhat modified and improved
since they were enacted, but it has
been practically impossible to repeal
them They are, however, wholly of
Democratic origin, construction and
enactment, and when Democratic
convention declares that they have
made tour state odious," and have
"robbed the people of the United
States of millions of dollars annual
ly''-well it must be case of severe
political repentance. Elizabeth Jour
nal.

THE HUNTERDoN DEMOCRACY.

The gayety of nations isn't a mar
ker to the gayety of Democratic pol
itics in Hunterdon County. They
are going to elect Sheriff and Sur
rogate this fall, and they propose to
do this ON platform seven folios
longer than the moral law. First
they re-affirm the Chicago platform
and emphasize the 16 to paragraph
without the consent of any other ma
tion ON earth, be gosh. Then they
demand the denomination of that
American patriot and statesman,
William Jennings Bryan. The third
plank puts on record their unalterable
opposition to Imperialism, and then
follows lot of rubbish about standing
armies, the science of government
unlawful combinations of capital and
denunciation of Attorney General
Griggs. There isn't word about the
candidates or a sentence that can in
the remotest way effect the campaign
in Hunterdon. They are going to elect
a Sheriff and Surrogate as a protest
against Imperialism and the Crime of
~, and the intelligent voters are
probably thinking of the story of the
man who put green spectacles on his
horse to teach him to eat shavings. -

Reunion Of Dewey Tamily.

Tacoma, Nov. ga. NJ. Dewey, specia,
agent of the government department of
labor, has announced that all members of
the Dewey family related to Admiral
Dewey would hold reunion at the Wal
dorf-Astoria hotel in New York, in Jan
uary or February. Dewey, who is a
cousin of the admiral has been one of
the prime movers in the plan for the re-
union. He says acceptances have been
received from all parts of the country,
indicating that 800 Deweys win gather
in New York to meet the admiral and his
bride. Over 100 Deweys from the Pacific
coast will be present, including DIR. Dew
ey Of this city. Admiral Dewey has been
requested to fix the date of reunion.

WILL SACRIFICE TICKET FOR
PORTER.

That the Democratic leaders do not
care a rap for single candidate on
their ticket save Mr.. Porter is clearly
shown by glance at the Banner
published yesterday, the leading organ
of the Democracy in Morris. Actual
measurement shows twenty six inches
of space devoted to Mr.. Porter's can't
dacy while but five inches is given to
the other nominees five in number
only an inch apiece. This is sufficient
evidence that word has been passed
along the line to sacrifice everything
for Porter. We wonder how this
suits Messrs., Brant and BARLEY, the
Democratic nominees for the Assem-
bly,; and Messrs. Becker, McGrath
and Kyle, their nominees for coroners.

REPRESENT PRINCIPLES.

The candidates to be voted for and
against on Tuesday represent princi-
pies. On one side are the Emen repre-
senting the principles which brought
us dull trade and financial disaster.
On the other hand men whose princi-
pies as carried out by Mckinley have
brought revival of commercial pros
perity. A vote for Baker Welsh and
Garrison is vote in favor of good
times.

PRETTY HOME WEDDING.
Parker-Johnson Nuptiais at the Residence
of the Brides Father.

oil the BTIue natAFb-
A very pretty home wedding oc-
Cured at II Early street at 7 O'Clock
Wednesday evening when Miss Mary
Augusta johnson, daughter Of Mr..
and Mrs. Henry Mahlon Johnson, was
married to Lewis Charles Parker.
The house was beautifully decorated
with laurel, chrysanthemums and
palms. These were also used in the
construction of a bower or arch under
which the ceremony was performed.
The feature lent an effect to the
otherwise pretty scene that was most
beautiful.
A pretty and novel idea was the
forming Of an aisle by which the
bridal party entered. This was ar
ranged by two young ladies standing
at the entrance to the parlors and two
others near the arch. Each held the
end Of a ribbon which was placed in
their hands by the ushers The four
young ladies were Miss Nettie Breese,
Miss Alice Parker, Miss Mabel Ennis
and Miss Charlotte Williamson.
The marriage ceremony was per-
formed by Rev. Albert Erdman, d.
D., pastor Of the South Street Pres
byterian Church, of which the bride
is a member. Charles Fl. Corwin
played the wedding march from
Lohengrin. The bride was beauti-
fully gowned in costume Of ivory
satin, trimmed with old point lace. She
wore a tulle veil and carried show
er boquet of chrysanthemums. She
was given away by her father.
Miss Adelaide johnson, sister OF
the bride was maid OF honor. She was
attractively attired in a dress OF
white taffeta trimmed with lace.
Her boquet was mignonette tied with
green ribbon.
The groom's best man was Condit
w. Dibble, of New York, and of foot
ball fame. He was one of the strong
est players on the Williams College
team as we'll as one of the speediest
runners in the college.
DR.. Arthur S. Corwin, of Morris
Plains, and John Sinclair, of Morris
town, were the ushers.
Mr.. Parker is a member of the
firm of Parker Brothers, pho
tographers, and enjoys very wide
circle of friends He is one of the
most popular of Morristown's young
men and is connected with several
local organizations with social en-
vironments.
About seventy-five guests were
present, which included a number
from out of town. A pretty act of the
bride occurred just after the ceremony
when she released the flowers of the
boquet and from the stairs scattered
them among the guests. The conven-
tional supply of rice was in evidence
when the bride and groom took their
departure. Upon returning from the
honeymoon Mr.. and Mrs. Parker will
reside on Mill street.
Among those in attendance at the
wedding were Mr.. and Mrs. Charles
B. Pollard and Miss Pollard, OF. New
ark; DIR. j. E. Pollard and wife, of
Kearney Mr.. and Mrs. j. Cory John
son, of Bloomfield; Mr.. and Mrs.
Thomas " Johnson, Mrs. William
Stoddard and Mrs Corwin of Madi-
son.
