became acquainted with Felix Mottl and thereafter
ARRANGEMENTS were made by the German conductor

Wagner concerts for the ensuing season. In the
OF 1885 he first appeared at the Queens Hall

point % his career and TO mark an epoch in the
history of music in England. This was the direct

The Eternal Form of Government

The only eternal form Of Government il
fact Is a Democracy, for the people is the
source Of power, aud although that power
may be usurped by an individual ar group
Of individuals for period it is inevitably
reoonquered by the people, by the Democ-
racy. Mr.. Bourke Cochran, therefore,
performed patriotic duty when he placed
the Issue before the American people in
these ringing terms
Shall imperialism 9oue,a or shall Denoc-
rdcy continue 10 guide this nation Shall
this Republic remain constitutional, as Wash-
ington established 1t, democratic as Jefferson
made ii, free as Lincoln left it, or shall II
giue place 10 a personal government aedieh d
strenuous boss administers, a0tich the trust
exploit and control, achich monarchs and
MOBILES hare begun to .fatter, and 70ltich there
fore, good men and patriots euerychere haze
begun, to distrust2''
What answer will the people give
imperialism, at any rate, will not have a
walkover, for the cause of the Democracy
in the United States has been terminated
by the discovery in the ranks Of the Demo-
cratic party Of a man who has not lost faith
in the principles of Democracy, Of a man
who believes firmly and is not ashamed to
confess his belief in the doctrine of govern
ment Of the people, by the people, for the
people," Judge Parker's manly straight
forwardness has had the immediate result
of making even Mr.. Roosevelt's Imperialism
less truculent and Of opening the eyes #
the Peep e to its insidions dangers.
An imperial policy has erer engendered i'm
periat rule and since there is no room ia a
Democyacgf0 Caesar once the Ameeican
people realize this fact mr.. RooserlA ceases
TO be dangerous.

Think over this, calmly and without
prejudice. Let the amazing horror of it all
become clear to you. We have here, in the
cold blooded record of the county clerk,
the proof of Judge Strong's estimate of the
gravity of this crime, the crime which has
been characterized as surely next to murder
and usually more terrible to its victim than
murder.
A fine of $50, a cash payment of $50 and
and four months to pay the balance Rap
lists in MiddIesex can indulge in their iend-
ish passions and risk nothing more than

courts at less than hundred dollars.

Judge Strong is the judge who accepted
the plea of guilty from Valentine, the bank
robber, on few Of the minor counts Of
the Indictment, and sent him to State
Prison for short term. The court has
refused to try Valentine on the other in
dictments. The popular indignation at
this procedure was rejected by the Governor
in reappointing Strong whose relative is the

Who is the Wogglebug The Wogglebug
| is 1T, with a big and big T. He is
also 7. f., which, being translated into
United States, means Thoroughly Educat-
ed. He has all the learning Of the ages
packed away in the smallest noddie you
ever saw. He looks like his picture just
as wise; and be gained his wisdom by liv-
ing in school house crawled through
the books and absorbed all they had in
them.
The Wogglebug comes from Ola mys-
FERROUS land beyond the planets He is to
visit the United States. He is accompan-
led by several companions. One is the
Scarecrow, found in field in the land of
Or. Though filled with life, he is
stuffed with straw and has no brains.
Another companion is the Tin Woodman,
made Of things from tinsmith's shop. He
has no heart. Then there is Jack Pump
kinhead, made by boy named Tip He
was made to scare a witch. The witch
sprinkled the powder of life ON him and
|
made him work and talk. Tip stole the
powder of life, sprinkled it on Sawhorse,
and the Sawhorse cantered away with Jack
on his back. Then all of the Ozites came
across the Gump. The Gump is two high
backed sofas lashed together with stuffed
deer's head and palm leaf fans for wings.
The Gump is the vehicle on which the
Wogglebug, the Scarecrow, the Tin Wood
man, Jack Pumpkinhead and the Sawhorse
have come to the United States.
The visitor from Or will go to all parts
of the United States and see all there is to
be seen. The Wogglebug, wisest of insects
is the guide of the party, and the questions
that puzzle the visitors he is always pre-
pared to answer All the doings Of the
visitors will be ehronicled in the Sunday

Editor Bremner, Of the Passaic Herald. is
one who has been quoted as one of the
Hearst Committee, who signed the pro-
nunciamento against Senator Smith. Edi-
tor Bremner refused to join the bolt which
Livingston Price concocted, and now says
Of the anti-Smith declaration -
There is time for everything. Th4e
Indictment against Smith signed by SO
many prominent Democrats was written
months ago and was intended as primary
document, not as Republican campaign
circular. Many good Democrats must feel
that they have been imposed on when the
protesting manifesto makes its appearance
on the eve of an election. Because Of the
untimeliness Of the article it becomes Re-
publican instead OF Democratic as it
certainly was when written. The persons
responsible for the delay are culpable
When the Smith denouncing manifesto was
not brought out at the proper time it
should not have been brought out at all,
and none regret its untimely appearan ce
more than some Of the good Democrats
whose names are signed to the fierce denun-
citation Of Senator Smith and his methods.
AS a primary document it could have done
no harm. As election literature it can do
no good, not even to Republicans.

unto you. Not as the world giveth, give !

unto you.
And now what shall say as parting
word to you all My heart is so full shat
utterance is very difficult, for the past with
its pleasant associations comes up before
me. Be sure my beloved brethren the sun
shine of these years disposes all the shadows
in my heart to-day and my most fervent
prayer is that shall leave this community
carrying with me these pleasurable thoughts
Of your loyalty to Jesus Christ and His
church, to your pastor and his family, and
In the years to come, be they few or many,
! shall ever hope the shadows to grow less
until they be obliterated from my memory.
This / know, under the refulgant rays from
our Fathers throne in the home Of many
mansions the last remnant of shade will
disappear and we shall meet there in per-
feet peace-His peace-never more to part
AS citizen of this peaceful domain it has
ever been my custom to raise my head with
the highest in the land. I've never been
ashamed of the name even as some have
been, indeed, the longer ! live here the
dearer it has became to me, and yet it is
not the place beautiful for situation though
it may be that makes it pleasant to dwell
IN, but the people make the place, and
neighbors and friends all, it is very hard
for me to-day to say to you farewell. =
You have been so kind to me me and mine
that to move even to short distance away
from you is a heavy burden. I trust that
during these years I've done nothing to
cause you to feel bitter towards me. /
know you have given me no cause to do so,
but you haye done your best to make life
pleasant and comfortable to me here, worth
living over. May the God of peace be with
you Away, prosper you abundantly and
prepare one and all to meet Him in the
skies. Farewell.

A deficit Of nearly seven million dollars
in August added to the large deficit OF
July makes the deficiency of revenues for
two months So, 2s2, 456. The expenditures
for the two months were nearly sixteen
million dollars more than in the same two
months of last year. These figures do not
support the Republican boast that they
have provided an adequate revenue; or
rather, they prove that while the taxes
are high enough, the expenditures have be-
come inordinate.

Virtue In Middlesex,

What do the people of Middlesex county,
the mothers of daughters, the fathers of
chaste girls, the brothers and lovers of good
women think Of this?
Alfred Cooley, married man, indicted
for carnal abuse of Mary Kayanaugh, Is
year-old girl, whom he kept prisoner for
two days, repeatedly abusing her, retracted
his plea of not guilty andIentered one of non
vult, equivalent to an admission of guilt.
Judge Woodbridge Strong accepted the
plea and sentenced the man to pay fine of
S75.
Cooley paid $50 of the fine.
He was then discharged, Judge Strong
giving him four months in which to pay
the balance.
The high water mark for pensions was
reached September 80, 1902, when the rolls
carried /, 200, 732 names. There is one reyol-
utionary widow on the pension rolls, to-day
Esther S. widow of Noah damon of Yer
mont. She must have married at II when
her husband was 70. He served as follows:
six days from April 10, IT'S, in Captain
fuckers company; twenty-five days in
Captain Summers company; sixty-fve days
in Captain French's company; three month S
in Captain Thomas Whites company; three
months in Captain Laphan's company
thirty-seven days in Captain Clapp's COM
pany; nine days in Captain Abner Cranes
company; thirty -one days in Captain Rich
ards company, and eight months in Cap
tain Champney's company. These com
panies were generally in different regi-
ments, and the record shows the curious
instability Of military service during the
Revolution. The last survivor of that war
died in 1869, aged 100 years.

Another great naval scandal has broken
out. Forty seizures of duitable merchan-
disc have been made in SanFranciso, reveal
ing a wholesale smuggle Of oriental goods.
There are more than one hundred cases of
goods in all, worth tens of thousands of
dollars, many Of them consigned to Com
mander Bull and Rear--Admiral Stirling.
Probably Secretary Shaw will simply re-
primand the offenders, as he did the naval
officers who struggled into Porto Rico, for
the cases seem exactly similar. Secretary
Shaw told correspondent that he
should let those offenders off with reprim-
and, while native Porto Ricans were still
in Jail and had been there for a year, for
doing precisely the same thing.
