Uncle Tobey's Lecture .e On Liars #
FROM HOME AND FARM.

farmers that he loved them all like brothers, ane that if they would vote for him he would see that the legislature would prss law compelling the railroad com panies to pay them full value for the stock killed by their trains, without having to resort to long and tedious lawsuits, which usual ly cost the farmers more than the stock was worth. Some of the farmers believed him, and the last your Uncle Tobey heard of them the moss was seventeen inches long on their backs and still grow ing.
 One time your Uncle Tobey saw a lot of business men in town lis tening to liar who was telling them that | local paper waSn' | much pumpkins anyhow, and that they would better spend their money in red-blaze write-up which he would give them in a pa per published 200 miles from that place. They believed him, and each gave him the required amount of shekels. Each received SO many papers to distribute, according to his deeds done to the aforesaid liar. But nobody about town or in the country wanted the papers and they were finally thrown in the back alley where several old farmers found them and carried them home to wrap around their fruit trees to protect them from the rabbits.
 The local paper was neglected. The editors wife starved to death trying to live on diet of bed slats and wild onions, and the editor shortly followed her to heaven, where he was given a harp and a witness summons to appear against the business men of that town and his delinquent subscribers on the Day of Judgment The town is now wrapped in sleepy silence and dog fennel. The business men are lazily awaiting the blast of Ga- briefs horn, knowing full we'll that they have got to meet that editor.
 This isn't all l know about liars, but it's enough for one dose.

 breeze blowing in from the green fields, your Uncle Tobey will talk to you about liars. The liar is land animal but he has been known to lie under water for a long time
 after he was dead He is usual- ly a coward. and when truth comes limping in at the front door with a stonebruise on its heel and mansard roof over it's eye, the liar will jump through the back window if 1t can't get out of the house any other way.
 One day liar told a pretty young girl that she could reform a young man who wanted to mar ny her, but who got drunk, was vulgar, and mean to his mother and sisters. One night while the whipporwills were calling to their mates and the COWS were quietly chewing their cuds, this girl stole away from home and married him, and their children have been steal ing ever since they were big enough to reach what was insight. Yes, he changed after she married him. He got worse, and soon went over the river by the iim-iam route. The young wife took in washing to support herself and children, and died one day from sickness contracted from being turned out of doors in midwinter because she was unable to pay the rent.
 One day liar told friend of your Uncle Tobey that 1t was his Christian duty to drop his chop ping ax, throw down his grubbing hoe, unhitch his pIow team, drive his mower in the fence corner and let hay lie in the windrow, while he ran thirteen miles in the hot sun to take hand in 3 quarrel that did not concern him. He did as he was told, and the doctor charged him fifty dollars for pick ing the shot out of him, and a heavy rain set in and ruined eigh- teen tons of hay in the field
 Once liar told another friend of your Uncle Tobey that he could get rich easier and quicker by buy ing futures than any other way and run no risk of getting in jail. 50 our friend sold q large farm, all but forty acres, his stock and everything, and went up to St. Louis to get rich quick. Six months after that he was back without dollar. He had, how ever. gobbled up an immense amount of experience and stored away large gobs of wisdom. He went back on the forty acres he had not sold, bought il mouse col ored mule on credit and is now raising cotton for the spectators to steal.
 A liar once told a boy that if he would learn to smoke, chew, drink, swear and cheat he wonld be a man right now. The boy tried it, although his father and mother did everything they could to keep him from 1t. He is now in jail for obtaining goods under false pre- lenses.
 At another time liar told a young man that if he would tell vulgar stories about young laoies that cond escended to go with him he would become very popular among the other young men, and the young ladies would break their regular gait in their efforts to be first in his favor. He tried 1t and when the girls father got through with him he looked like wet dish

ington. A visit was asSos expected from
Colonel \. Raspopoff, Military attache to
the royal Russian legation, bur at the
last moment he was de,a ned at Por, s
mouth and telegraphed his regrets. Ma
jor General Lord Cheyiesmore president
of the National Rifle A $ ociatson of
Great Britain, had accepted an invitatinn
and expected to be present, but owing Ito
earlier sailing than was anticipated he
was compelled to send his regrets and
did not witness the compel tion.
Among the teams represented was
one from the military academy "a t West
Point, which made very creiitabse
showing. 1t is much to be regretted, If
newspaper reports are true, that General
Miles, the superintendent of the institu-
ton. has decided that no more teams
shall attend the national match, for ev-
cry incentive should be given to educate
the young men of the academy in the
use of the rifle and to touch elbows with
the expert rifiemen of the country. More
is learned by this intercourse than by ac-
tual practice.
1T was our pleasure to arrange for
banking facilities ON the ground, SO that
the team captains could obtain money on
their warrants for the necessary expenses
and for their home journey. More than
$4,000 were paid out ever the counter of
the administration office in exchange for
warrants from all points of the United
States. This was a feature Of the meet
ing that should not be overlooked in the
future, no matter where it Is held, al
money is an essential factor in the trans-
portation Of teams and in the payment Of
thsir subsistence.
while Sea Girt is not especially a
candidate for the next match, or for flu
tire matches. still it is to be regretted

Dickinson Aldermen Likely
to Form a Coalition With
the Democrats and Namo
Him
-FAaAM WON'T CONTROL BOARD
HIS SLATE. WITH WEAsTELL
FOR CITY CLERK. HAS LITTLE
CHANCE OF PASSING, so THE.
EXECUTIVES PARTY LOSES
THE BEST PLUM.

After caucus of thirteen Republican
members of the coming Board Of Alder
men held last night, the indications were
that Mayor Fagan will not control the
reorganization of that body. The two
Republican absentees We're Aldermen
Grael and Voight, of the Twelfth Ward.
Each sent communication to the effect
that they would stand by the decision
of the majority.
Messrs. Allerdice. Allen. Bilby. Pforr
and Barr. who sided with Colonel Dick
inson, the Republican leader whom the
Fagan faction seeks to down, left the
caucus in a body, declaring that they
had been led to believe that they were
only to attend conference. Prior 70
the general caucus they had held com
ference of their own at the Union
League Club in York street.
The eight Faganite members of the
Board insisted ON the following slate:--
For City Clerk. John A. Weastell
(present Tax Commissioner; for City
Marshal. Capt" Jack Graham; for
Sealer of Weights and Measures, James
Moran; for Building Inspector. John
Mcneil; for Clerk to the Building IN
spector. John Deterle.
The FIVE Dickinson Aldermen decided
to form coalition with the ten Demo-
cratic members of the Board, bur reserv-
ed to themselves the right of dletating
the appointment of a City Clerk to sue
ceed Michael J. 0'Donrell and suc-
cessor to Building Inspector Saul. Civ
ing the Democrats all the other plurns.
It was said after the caucus that
George Mccarthy, president of the So
ciety for Prevention of Cruelty to Ami
mails, and who loomed up as formid-
able Dickinson candidate for the ncmi-
udllou VI MdyOT Us dSdlASl Mayor II a.
gan's third term nomination, but who
withdrew. will in all probability become
the next City Clerk The salary of the
City Clerk is $1,000 a year-the same
as the salary for Mayor-but a far
greater financial plum, nasmuch as he
has an opportunity of being kept in of
fee long after the terms of mayors are
ended. Mr.. O'Donnell has been City
Clerk for over decade. Adininistra-
tions, either Republican or Democratic,
hesitate about removing City Cles k.
The late John E. Scott, Republican.
was held over under successive Demo
cratic administrations. He was Mr..
O'Donnelrs predecessor.
George w. Mccarthy, whom the Dick
inson Republican members, with n Dem
ocratic coalition, hope to appoint, is a
brother of Counsellor James Mccarthy,
who was elected Alderman-at-L Large,
and is Faganite. Though differing in
politics. they are loyal TO each other.

MERELY
MENTIONED

AS the "News' has said all along,
Mayor Pagan will not control the new
Board of Aldermen. The slate arranged
at his home on the night after the recent
election has gone to smash, and unless
the Pagan members of the Board agree
to Encouragement and allow the Dick
inson Aldermen voice in the selection
of the different offices to be chosen at
the organization meeting they will be left
out altogether. The Faganites started
cut with the determination of grabbing
all the places. The Dickinson Aldermen
were not consulted and they were given
to understand that they need not look for
any recognition. The tables have been
turned and now it is the Dickinson Al
dermen who control the situation.
The Jersey City news. (Jersey City [N.J.]) 1889-1906, 1905-12-19

Although the impression prevails that
George w. Mccarthy, loyal follower
of Col. Dickinson, is the choi% of the
Dickinson Aldermen for City Clerk,
nothing definite has been decided upon
and it will not be known who are to get
the places until after the Democrats
have held their caucus. 1t is pretty gem
orally understood that in the allotment OF
places the Democrats, if combination
is effected, will allow the FIVE Dickinson
Republicans to name the City Clerk,
while they will insist on the right to
name the candidates for Building II
spector, City Marshal and Sealer Of
Weights and Measures. This apportion-
ment would be satisfactory to the Dick
inson Republicans. In that event it is
probable that the Democrats will waive
their claim to one of the other places,
though at present they have no such in
tention.

The Fagan Aldermen. at the caucus.
named John Weastell for City Clerk.
This selection will not meet with popular.
favor, as Weastell is politician of the
machine type. He is at present mem
Der of the Board of Tax Commissioners
and has never been out of Office when
the Republicans were in power. His
desertion of Col. Dickinson. who had
been his political friend. has earned for
him the contempt of every organization
Republican. No selection could have
given more offense to the Dickinsonites.

There are fifteen Republican Alder
men, including President James W. Nc
Carthy, as against ten Democrats. OF
the fifteen Republicans i've are Dickin-
sonites. These five were present at the
caucus held last might. When they found
that they were not going to have any
thing to say about the appointments
they took up their hats and following the
example of the Colby7Record Assembly
men, walked out Of the caucus. 1t is
understood they will join with the Demo-
Gratis and organize the Board, dividing
the patronage.

Marcus Higginbotham has been depos-
ed as Secretary to Congressman Van
Winkle. He was picked out for anni-
hilation by the Faganites and they did
not rest until they had landed his scalp.
Marcus is Republican. He is not u
trimmer and he stood by Col Dickinson
in the latter's fight with Mayer Fagan.i
This angered john WeastelI and the
other Faganites in the Eighth Ward. the
home of Congressman Van Winkle, and
they pleaded with the Congressman to
make change. Though he hated to do
it, Mr.. Van Winkle. for the sake of
winning the support of the Faganites
when he runs again next fall, gave Sec
rotary Higginbothanl his walking papers.

Alderman in the Fourth Ward at the re-
