The New Jersey Democratic Society is
in line with the sentiment of the State in
the matter Of the Anti-Spring Election law
enacted by the legislature At meeting
held in Newark on the I'd inst, resolutions
denouncing the merger of Spring elections
with the Fall elections 'as inimical to
good government and the best interests of
the various cities throughout the State and
that we congratulate the Democratic mem
bers of the Legislature for their firm stand
against the bill and request all the Demo-
cratic clubs of this organization to take
such action as will place the matter clearly
before the voters were unanimously
adopted.

Philadelphia, March 14.-John Wan
amaker, who was postmaster general
during President Harrison's admins
tration, said last night: Ben
jamin Harrison will ever stand
as rare type of American character.
In the combination Of gifts he pos
sessed he approached Gladstone nearer
than any other American statesman
Never false himself, he was the implac-
able foe of falsity in others. He had a

Surely no citizen need be ashamed to
own authorship of intelligent inquiry into
any act of the public school board, or
make inquiry of any matter of which the
public may not be rightly informed.
Hence, it seems to us that anonymous
writers on school subjects are public nui-
sance, because of the insinuations they dare
not stand for. Everybody respects an
honest critic, and, by the same rule, every
body despises an anonymous fault-fnder, land
no mayor will ever appoint nor will the
people ever elect such to the school board
if they know it, whether the Board Of
Education be composed of six or ten
members.

1t is apparent that by this plan the
South Jersey counties, which should be en-
titled to but one-q quarter of the Congressional
representation, are made the controlling
influence in four Of the smallest districts in
the State, while the North Jersey district
OF Bergen and Passaic is made still larger
by attaching Sussex, which makes the
district nearly one hundred thousand in
population larger than the two districts in
the Southern end of the State.
It needs no further detail than this to
mark the Congressional district scheme as a
piece of rank partisan trickery, utterly
inconsistent with the Congressional in
structions and wholly unworthy of State
legislature, True American.

Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot reach the
diseased portion of the ear. There is only one
way to cure deafness, and that is by constitu-
tional remedies. Deafness is caused by an in
famed condition of the mucous lining of the
Eustachian Tube. When this tube gets infiamed
you have rumbling sound or imperfect hearing,
and when it is entirely closed deafness is the
result, and unless the Inflammation can be taken
out and this tube restored to its normal condi-
ton, hearing will be destroyed forever; nine
cases out of ten are caused by catarrh, which is
nothing but an inhamed condition of the mu-
cous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for any
case of Deafness (caused by eatarrh} that cannot
be cured by Halls Catarrh Cure. Send for
circulars free.

1T WILL MAKE TROUBLE.


''The new law is going to make trouble.
Already the citizens of Newark and Camden
are preparing to contest its constitutionality
in the Courts and with fair prospect
of success.
Carl Lentz cannot control that body,
surely. And when it is upset, where will
municipalities like Salem be? Will the acts
of the present Council be valid? Who
wants to continue the work Of city improve
ment in the face Of possibly being hauled
before the Court charged with doing some
thing illegal? We hold no election in
Salem this spring. Suppose in June the
Supreme Court decides that the new law is
unconstitutional and that we should have
held an election-what then? There are
provisions for filling the offices that may
become vacant, but suppose that someone
starts to make trouble for some official who
held over under this law and honestly did
what he thought was his duty to do :?
Possibly the Court would exonerate him,
but he would be put to much worriment
and much expense before he was through
with it. And who wants to walk into
possible trouble. [Salem Sunbeam.

In these and other cases the populations
of places to which the new law applies and
of places to which it does not apply are
nearly equal. To claim that the new law
properly discriminates by comforting bene-
fit upon one set of places without with
holding any benefits from the other set of
places; that the law is necessary in one set
and not in the other, is to insult common
sense Newark Advertiser.

delivered to Owen Newton, his deputy,
who with Os King. started Immediately
for Foreston. They put up their team
on arriving at the village and planned
to watch there for the. prisoners.
Shortly after their arrival they discoy-
cred two men coming along the rail

left the track and to throw them off

off in the opposite direction, but hid

1t is Supt. Raudall's belief that the
men deserted their posts out of pure
inconsistencies on the part of Fenholt.
He is much the younger man of=the
two, and like Larson is a native of
Freeborn county and has never been
away from home before. He longed
for home and its companionships and
it is presumed urged Larson to cut and
run with him. Larson made sacrifice
indeed for his friend, for he had been
in the institution a matterof a year,
and was regarded as a trusty and reli-
able man and his parole and final dis
charge we're events not so far in the
distance. He had several times been
in ST. Cloud with a reformatory team
wholly unaccompanied by a guard or
other person and it is believed he
yielded to the s'con'' talk of his fellow
townsman ina moment Of weakness.
The fact: that the man Sullivan had
sue essfully evaded capture is also be-
Ieved to- have influenced the men in
making the break. An evidence Of
Their forethought as to their future
course Of action in effecting an escape
was found inthe fac: that they took

A Genuine Freak.

Our exchange tells us of an editor in
the lower part of the State who almost
dropped: dead in his tracks the other
day when one of his successful county
candidates expressed his appreciation
Of his papers support during the cam
paign. This is certainly rare occur
renee and the editor would be excusa-
BILE for his action if he should publish
the candidates portrait, so that the
newspaper men might see for once in
their life time the picture of an angel.
It ought to be printed at once, for
there is SO much ingratitude in poll
tics that the same fellow will very
likely, before another year rolls by, be
doing everything he can to run the
aforesaid editor and his paper out
OF the country by starving to death or
by tryingto belittle or cripple the ed
itor. There are some men who feel
and show some gratefulness to the
party paper after the campaign is
over, but the. number of such, men is
not sufficiently large to crowd Others
out of the procession. = Hibbing .Neags.
