AN OCTOBER WEDDING.
The Nuptials Of Miss Essie May
Force and 5irton Cratsiey.

A pretty October wedding was cele-
brated Wednesday last at high noon,
at the home of Mr.. and Mrs. Joseph
Force of Califon, N. j., when their
daughter, Essie May was married to
Birton Cratsley, of Brooklyn, N. Y.
The parlors were hastily decorated
with autumn leaves and chrysanthe-
NUNS. AT one end of the parlor, an
arch of white chrysanthemums banked
high on either side by palms and ferns,
lent effectiveness to the scene..
The bridal party entered the parlor
to the strains of the wedding march
from Lohengrin, and proceeded to the
west end of the room where they
were met by the, Rev. H. @. Nelson
of Plainfeld, who performed the cere-
mony. The bride was attired in a
beautiful gown of white Organdie and
carried carnations and white chrysan-
themums. The bridesmaid, Miss
Mamie Force, sister of the bride, was
very becomiAgly gownsd in white or
candle over blue, and carried white
chrysantemums Miss Linnet Force,
a niece of the bride was flower girl.
Following the ceremony. a wedding
breakfast was served, after which
Mr.. and Mrs. Cratsley left for New

JOURNALS HYPOCRISY.

The following editorial article from
the New York Journal of Wednesday
morning shows the utter hypocrisy of
Bryan's leading supporters. They
confess that they are against Bryan
on the money question, and that they
also oppose him in his proposal to
abandon the Philippines. They admit
now that the country is with them,
and their opposition to Bryan views,
and yet the Journal has all along done
it's utmost to support candidate with
whom it disagrees on the two main
issues OF the campaign. The Repub-
licans holding free silver to be the
paramount issue, while Bryan claimed
Imperialism to be the paramount
is sue. But as the Journal explains,
it accepted the party platform without
believing in it. In short, the Journal,
for reasons of its own, hates the
Mckinley Administration and the
Republican party, and was willing,
at the cost of its honor, to attempt
the overthrow of the Administration
Some of the Democrats of this
neighborhood have substantial reasons
to complain of the Journals conduct.
They pinned their faith to its false
forecast of Bryan's success, down to
the morning of election day, and not
a few of them st some sound money
which they put OH Bryan, though not

The following lines were written by
George s. Hillard, Esq, of Boston,

The life-web of the strong, old man;
Ninety years in sun and shade,

Ninety years have left him still
The reason clear, the vigorous will
Kept the heart unchanged and warm
LIGHTLY touched the reverend form.
Spared the eyes translucent sphere,
Spared the portals of the ear;
Nor rolled against the brain stone
And left it silent, dark and home.
From dauntless stock, and true,
The vigorous sap of life he drew;
Who has not read. with patriot pride,
The story of his father S riders
Around the cradle of the child
The storm of strife. was raging wild
And WIN the lengthening shades had
come
He heard again the battle drum.
He heard it with face aglow
With all the fire of long ago,
And babe the darlings of his eye
His noble boys, go forth and die.
And surely, God doth rightly prize
The fathers costly sacrifice
Has kept record of his fears.
His signs suppressed his silent tears.
And sure, when Heavens gate open'd
wide
For these twain spirits, glorifed,
The elder Paul was there to greet
His name-ohild with a blessing meet.
His sons have passed away from

THE EXPECTED HAS HAPPEN
ED"

The result foreordained at Kansas
City has come to pass. President
Mckinley is re elected.
When the f6 to plank was separate
ly reaffirmed, upon the direct demand
of Mr. Bryan and with the complacent
assistance of Croker, though against
the clearly expressed Judgment OF the
delegates, the fate of the ticket was
sealed. That plank became a mill
stone around the candidates. neck.
It was impossible to keep the money
question out of the campaign. even
though as an issue it was dead. Mr..
Bryan's silence ON 16 to in the. East
led to attacks upon his sincerity and
was regarded as an admission of the
utter defenselessness of the plank he
had insisted upon reiterating.
If the free silver policy was ''party
suicide in 1896, il was provocation
to punishment after DEATH in 1900
Though the result cf the election
verifies the Judgment and vindicates
the warnings of The World, we most
deeply regret the wasted opportunity
IF the party and its failure TO utilize
in victory the aspirations and hopes
of the majority of the people whose
views on the really living and para
mount questions it so splendidly es-
poused. We deplore the fact that
the country was not permitted to vote
directly and singly upon those issues.

SHOW raglR CONFIDENCE

The American people have by an
overwhelming majority shown their
confidence and approval of the adj
ministration of William Mckinley as
President Of the United States for the
last four years. They have also
expressed their strong disapproval of
the unsound principles which have
been promulgated by William Jennings
Bryan and his followers. His free
silver foolishness and his hare Drained
chatter about anti-imperialism and
trusts have not deceived the American
voters, although they have been dill
gently disseminated with all the skill
and eloquence of an INSCRIPTIONS
and dangerous demagogue.
Apart from Democratic politics,
Mr.. Bryan's notions could not obtain
the approval of single State in the
Union. 1t is to be hoped that the
Democratic party will now have the
courage to reorganize on less danger
GUS lines, as a preliminary step turning
out Bryan and the other Populists.
McKinley's increased majority in
the Electoral College shows that the
confidence reposed in him is not of a
sectional nature. In some of the
States the popular majcrities are
smaller than in 1896, but that is only
proof that the people felt so sure of
Bryan's defeat that many of the
Sound Money Democrats who voted
for Mckinley in 1896 stayed at home,
thinking that their votes were not
needed to secure the res ult they de-
ired.

5. He angered and disguised all
decent citizens by stringing insulting
banners over Broadway for the sound
money parade.
6. He either advised or permitted
Chief Devery to issue an incendiary

for the Democracy of that &C anty
When it is borne in mind that Bry an
received majority of 5l7, that Mr..
Roe, the Republican nominee for the
Assembly majority of 81, and Senator
Martin a majority of 90, it will be
seen that Mr.. Martin had all he could
do to pull through: and if his alleged
deal with the counsel and officers
of the Zinc Company at Franklin had
not been consummatel a few days
prior to election, he would have been
defeated by over 200 votes Judge
Martins reelection, by the skin of his
teeth, as it were, may be a source of
qualification to select few, but it
will cost the tax payers of Sussex a
snug little sum. 1t is not to be ex-
pected that as counsel of the Sussex
County Board of Assessors, appointed
to consider the legality OF an increase
in the valuation of the property OF
the Zinc Company, Senator Martin,
after the delivery of the votes in
Hardyston and Wallpack townships,
will recommend an increase. The
voters of Sussex should hold the
