PERHAPS the object of the resolution
looking towards a revision of the rules OF
the Republican party will be accomplish
ed, but it will require some hard and
earnest work on the part of the committee
to secure the desired end in the time fixed.
The resolution provided that report
should be made at convention to be held
not later than March 1. The present rules
provide that all changes in the regulations
shall be made by convention to be con-
vened as such bodies are now called.
Under the present system all conventions
must be advertised at least two weeks in
Republican newspapers and notices must
be posted. The convention to revise must
be held, if the resolution is respected, not
later than February %. The committee
was notified of its appointment the latter
part of last week, so 1t has about three
wees to work in. Perhaps that is suf-
ficient. especially if the revising is con-
sidered to be no more of a necessity than
the appointment of the committee seems
to have been. Members of the party who
hay given this matter some attention
sho.. d either come to the convention as
aiitsat gates, prepared to offer their views
Ii should send their ideas to the commit
zee sad then elect delegates to see that
he are properly presented. Several
thip 5 certainly need revision. The hold
ing one convention for nominating sew
era aadidates should be abolished, thus
doi away with confusion, trading and
CON sinations. There should also be q
change In the system Of selecting county
committee The old method of the county
committee selecting the chairman and
then the chairman appointing the COM
nlittee is too much on the order of perpet-
nal motion. Another point that might
well be considered is the method of select
ing delegates. A very beneficial change
could be made by adopting rule requir-
ing persons wishing to be delegates to a
convention to notify the advisory COM
mitteeman at least three days before the
date for electing. The names should be
posted and no delegate should be admitted
to convention unless he had complied
viii, such requirement. In more than one
instance has it occurred that the announce
ment has been made that there would not
be any contest for delegates. The voters,
resting content under such statement,
have not gone to the delegate election and
have awakened the next morning to dis
cover that advantage was taken of their
absence and set of delegates chosen that
could rot have been elected had their can
didAey been announced In advance, There
IRE ether changes that can be benefcially

Notes and Opinions.


Democratic party is being wrecked on the
rocks of dead issue, and that If it is to live
it must undergo radical reorganization.
It must drop free silver, but when it
drops that it must drop its leaders. These
are golden words of wisdom which, if he
were not opposed to that standard in pre-
cepts as in currency, Bryan might paste
in his hat as the text of continuing medi-
tation.
Intelligent estimates of the increase in
the population of New Jersey since the
last Congress eapportionment was made.
lead to the conclusion that the state wi
be entitled to at least one more mem
Der of Congress, and possibly to two more
members, when the next Encouragement
of the Congress districts is made under
the census of 1900. Accoring to the last
State census, the population from 1890 to
1895 had increased 1928, 173. If in the last
decade the growth has been in the same
ratio, the population of the State will be
about 1900, 900, and upon the coming
census the revised representation in Con-
gress will be based.
There's one good thing that can be said
about Senator Pettigrew, of South Da-
kota; that is that his term in the Senate
will expire with the present Congress, and
there's no more chance for his reelection
than for him winning the throne of Russia.
Senator Pettigrew is now universally
known as the common scold of the United
States Senate. Such characters are to be
found in most communities, but it's
doubtful whether ull-hedged common
scold has ever before vexed the memories
of the United States Senate.
Pettigrew scolds all the time, at every
thing, and we can't now recall anything
for which he expresses friendly sympa-
thetic sentiments outside of Aguinaldo,
the cut. throat leader of the Filipino in
surgents, who once sold out his people
and their cause for Spanish gold, and who
would be glad to sell it to-day for Ameri-
can gold. It's because he isn't paid to
betray the cause he processes to love that
he is leading his barbarian followers
against our soldiers, and Aguinaldo makes
fit theme for Senator Pettigrew as a
common scold.
Senators Hawley and Sewell, both gal
liant soldiers of our civil war, were en-
tirely right in hurting the charge of
treason in the face of Pettigrew when he
assumed to plead the cause of Aguinaldo
before the Senate, and to charge falsehood
upon Admiral Dewey. Aguinaldo being
common liar naturally inspired Petit
grew as the common scold of the Senate.
For much less reasonable expressions
or actions Senators haYe been dismissed
from the body; and about the only excuse
that can be given for not dismissing Petit
grew, is that he is such common, con-
temptible and reasonable scold that he is
not worth minding, and doesn't merit the
dignity of a dismissal from the Senate
Phtla. Times.

TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 6, 1900.


MOUNT HOLLY has one less place for the
sale Of liquor than 1t had a week ago.
The refusal to renew the privilege to sell
liquors was not based upon complaint
that the house was conducted in an illegal
manner. but upon ground entirely new
to this section. The man who has been
keeping the hotel has been unable to
keep his head above financial reverses
and the house and it's contents have been
sold under the Sheriff's hammer. This,
Judge Gaskill thought, was sufficient basis
for refusal to renew license. That the
man who has kept the house has been un
able to meet his obligations, although Al
one time he had a good run of custom, Is
4in. TIE eyes of the court, sufficient guaran
tee that he Cannot do better In the future
with less business than in the past. Tit
court evidently felt it to be duty to pro
tect those who might become creditors o.
the hotel man, and the point is good one
The town has enough drinking places
without the one in question and there viii
not be any regrets that it has been closed
The fact that the court is inclined to keeI
an eye upon these places and not wait fol-
complaints to be lodged will also be noted
with pleasure.

FIVE years in state prison is not too Sc
vere for person who sets fire to build
ing out when there Is shadow of doubt
as to the guilt of the accused there arises
a question on the severity of sentence.
On Saturday Judge Gaskill imposed such
spenalty. At the time the man was ar
rested there was little doubt but the right
party had been secured. Since he has
been in Jail, however, there has been
another fire on property owned by the
same person to.whom the barn In question
belonged. Those who were very positive
that the man in jail and who is to go to
state prison was the guilty fellow now
think perhaps he might not have been,
and feel compassion for him. The evil
dence in the case showed that the defend
s.ant was responsible for the fire for which
he was taken in custody. Perhaps it
might have been accidental, perhaps not.
The fellow is certainly not fit to run at
large He has no home and the state in
stitution will care for him better than he
has been accustomed to for some time, and
property will be safe so far as he is con-
cerned. But there remains the fact that
there is at least one other person who de-
serves to go to Trenton with the convict
ed man. A house on the same property
as that which he fired was destroyed by
an incendiary. 1t was in the midst
of other houses, in neighborhood with
out protection from flames. That great
damage was not done was not the fault of
the man who applied the torch. If the
latter is apprehended there should be
another five years sentence. Perhaps the
act of the fellow who is about to go to
Trenton was not nearly as accidental as
some are inclined to think. His confine-
ment in jail may be the reason that he
could not be arrested for completely in the
second burning. There was insurance on
both buildings
