ton unless he n1d been q thorough pol itician, and yet all the thruSts of ofli- cials and all the danger of disgrace did not make him yield one iota of his high toned religious principle. He stood be- fore that age, he stands before all ages, specimen of godly politician. So there have been In our day and in the days of our fathers men as eminent In the service of God as they have been eminent in the service of the state. Such was Benjamin F. Butler, attorney general of New York In the time of your fathers; such was John Mclean of the supreme court of the United States; such was George Briggs of Mas sachusetts; such was Theodore Freling- huysen of New Jersey-men faithful to the state, at the same time faithful to God. It is absurd to expect that men wickedness for 90 or 40 years shall come to reformation, and our hope Is In the young men who are coming up, that they have patriotic principle and Christian principle side by side when they come to the ballot box and cast their first vote and that they swear al- legiancc to the government of heaven as well as to the government of the United States. We would have Bun ker Hill mean less to them than Cal vary, and Lexington mean less to them than Bethlehem. But because there are bad men around the ballot box Is no reason why Christian men should retreat from the arena. The last time you ought to give up your child or for sake your child Is when 1t is surround ed by company of Choctaws. and the last time to surrender the ballot box Is when 1t Is surrounded by impurity and dishonesty and all sorts of wickedness.
 Daniel stood on a most unpopular platform. He stood firmly, though the demagogues of the day hissed at him and tried to overthrow him. We must carry our religion into our politics. But there are great many men who are

Elk Senator ingalls, in an argument
against socialism in the New York Jour
nal says
Tho advocates of Socialism are In the
habit Of pointing to the Post Office De-
partment as an illustration Of their the.
ories, and of the tendency OF States To.
ward collectivism.
On tho contrary, the mail service Of the
United States is typical burdensome
and irresponsible monopoly Of the most
offensive description. Beyond appointing
a host Of officials TO collect pouch, dispatch,
receive and distribute the letters, the
government has nothing whatever to do
with their transmission. They are con.
veyed by railroads, steamboats,, stage
coaches and private contractors at extor.
tomato rates, some trains getting the on
tire cost of maintenance and operation
from their receipts from the post Office.
The government pays an average OF
eight cents the pound for an average haul
of four and one half miles while the ex
press companies carry merchandise from
New York to Chicago, a thousand miles,
for SO per hundred pounds, and some
transcontnental lines will take goods from
New Orleans to San Francisco for $40 OF
one cent the pound, while the govern
ment, by law, compels the citizens to
pay for carrying their letters at the rate
of $Gl0 to the ton, AS a matter of fact,
it is much nearer 81 900 the ton, for very
few letters weigh tho ounce which may
| be taken for two cents postage.

The present appears TO be an era Of
cheap things in our stores Those who do
not stop to consider, wonder how it is
possible for the storekeeper to give away
30 much for 80 little. 1t seems almost i'm
possible to convince the average citizen
that the inexorable commercial law is that
a man will get just what he pays for; that
cheap things are cheap things in fact az
we'll as In name. This craze for cheapuess
is responsible for large per cent. Of the
iniqnitons system OF adnlteration which
permeates so many of our manufactured
products. II the people would not buy
these fraudulent goods and did not think
that they were getting more than their
moneys worth when they did buy them
such things wonld not be made.

DEATH OF HOLMES D. ELY.

Our people were startled last Friday
morning by telegram, announcing
the sudden death in Jersey City, of
Holmes d. Ely, of this city, one of our
most respected and prominent citizens.
The Jersey City Erening journal of
Friday last gives the following parti-
culars respecting his death
Holmes Davis Ely, superintendent
of the voluntary relief department of
the Pennsylvania Railroad, who lived
in Lambertville, N. j., and had his
office in Trenton, died suddenly this
morning in this city His death oc-
cured in sensational manner
Mr.. Ely came from Trenton on the
train which reaches Jersey City at
1920 o'clock. He went direct from
the train to the Western Union Tele-
graph office, i'll tho Pennsylvania
building in Exchange Place. Just as
he reached the door of the Office he
threw up his hands and fell forward
on his face on the pavement.
A large number of persons saw him
fall, and several rushed to his assist
ance. Among those who saw the ac-
cident was Policeman Chimney, who
was standing on the other side of the
street. lie rushed over, and thinking
Mr.. Ely had fit, began slapping his
hands and using other restorative
methods usual in such cases. He soon
saw, however, that the man was dying
and had him carried int the telegraph
office.
Mr.. Ely died in eight minutes,
without saying word. Letters in
his pocket led to his Identification
General superintendent sheppard
and Division Superintendent Patter-
son were notified. Mr.. Patterson
Immediately made preparations to
take charge of the body, which
was removed later to the undertaking
establishment of William Hughes.
A crowd collected about the tele-
graph Office and Il large canvas was
fastened over the windows to keep
the body, which lay on the floor just
within the door, from the gaze of the
curious.
Supt Patterson sent word to Mr..
Ely = family of his sudden death.
