New York, Sept. 14.-Bradstreet's

Trade. crop and industrial reports

September, like August, appears to be
very large, if not record yields, out
scoring heavy. gains over the CORE

crop reports confirm previous public
and private advices of very large, if
not record yields, but price and traffic
conditions are bar to free movement.
Special activity is noted in demand
for dry goods, clothing. millinery, gro
ceries Especially canned goods AMI
and lumber and other building materi-
al.
On the other hand, it is reported from
several markets East and West that
the demand for shoes lacks snap as a
result apparently of large. stocks car
ried over as a result of the mild wealth

Cotton fabrics easily lead the list
of textile products, which report
very active demand.

week despite the tendency of manu-

A POLITICAL EARTHQUAKES.

The Colby earthquake in Union
county seems TO have been complete
and the fire which is now raging
promises to wipe the republican ma
chine, bosses and all, completely out
of existence before it is through. The
Colby movement, headed by Judge
Runyon, has taken a firm hold and
now comes the report that the Nc
Kinley Club, of Elizabeth, the ma
chimes stronghold, is threatened with
disruption, it's leaders and most act
i've members having joined the Colby
ranks, which has SO disheartened
those who remain that they are talk
ing of disbanding. And to think that
Colby is coming into Middlesex soon,
too.

SCHOOL BoARD's INAcTIoN.


The Board of Education ignored
the need of desks and heating appa-
ratus for two of the schools at the
meeting Tuesday night. Evidently
the deadlock is still unbroken and
rather than bring the matter into
further prominence the commission
ers wisely decided to remain silent.
No talk at all is better than a wran-
gle, but that is not going to furnish
the school rooms nor heat the build
ings. 1t is to be hoped that the petty
quarrels among the members will
not hinder them from doing their
plain duty in time SO that the city's
school system will not suffer any
more than it has.

COUNTY BUDGET CUT.

The Board of Freeholders have
succeeded in cutting down the county
budget over $4,000, thereby demon
strating that the people made no
mistake in ousting the old board and
substituting the commission of five
members. Thus far the county has
been well managed and a decided
improvement over the years previous,
Matters have received prompt atten-
ton and nothing has been neglected.
BY cutting down the budget $4,000
and the state assuming all the school
tax, the taxpayers ought to notice a
big difference in their tax bills as
soon as all this has had time to take
effect. Middlesex is experiencing the
same sensation as Hunterdon coun-
ty when it first changed its method of
management and this county can
heartily recommend the change to all
sister counties who are still strug-
Cling under the burden of the old
cumbersome boards.

TO RENEW ACTIVITY.

Announcement comes from the an
nual meeting of the Chamber of
Commerce, which is one month be-
hind time, that the organization is to
be heard from in no mistaken terms
in the neal future. Doubtless the in
tention is good, but the people await
the new signs.
There is much a Chamber of Com
MERGE could do in this city. For in
stance, there is that idea suggested
sometime ago that the Board of Ed
ucation be appointed by the mayor.
Recent developments in the school
board should stir the Chamber on
| this subject. However. if the matter
is left to the people it is probable
they will have something to say at

More factories are needed here, but
the Chamber has no further induce
ments than the natural advantages to
offer. These should be sufficient in

but property owners ask such enor-
nous prices for the desirable sites
that a manufacturer seldom looks
twice-not when other cities are Of
fering special attractions along with
cheap land, and, in some instances,
free sites. To compete in such a field
is particularly difficult and the Cham
Der will have to get unusually active

The street department needs the

its effort to improve the streets. A
great work is being done in this par

EDITORIAL COMMENT.
General Grubb a Reformer.


General e. Bird Grub, of Burling-
ton county, or, rather, of New Jersey,
has enlisted in the Colby reform
movement, "till the end of the war;.
The old soldier last night opened his
home at ~Edgewater to Senator Colby,
invited a number of the trustworthy
men of Burlington county to meet
him and to join the movement for re-
form, and effected an organization
that gives promise of placing Bur
lington county in the reform column
at the coming election.
What now will the regulars say
with reference to the personal and
political characters of the reformers?
Will they dare to allege, as did the
Paterson Call recently, that the re-
formers-or "muck-rakers," as that
paper maliciously denominated them
w only to be found where there
were factional controversies in the
republican party and that they were
mugwumps who had for years been
quietly knitting the candidates of the
party to which they were supposed
to belong? VIII they dare to charge
that such a man as General Grubb
was ever a mugwump or a factionist
or hat he is a seeker after Office for
the emoluments thereof?
General Grub was a soldier, true
| and courageous, and fought for the
Union in the days that put mems 10y
atty to the %severest possible test. The
republican party chose him as its
invincible Albeit, and he received
the largest vote, by several thousands
that had ever been cast for any re-
publican candidate that had ever
been cast for any republican candi-
date that had ever been named in this
state. That was the year in which
General Grub entered upon his act
i've career as a reformer. Jersey City
was honey-combed with fraud. cor
ruption and ballot-boX stufing. 1t
was not a presidential year, yet the
total vote for governor was 37,424
greater than it had been in 1886. The
most of this excess was fraudulent
and was cast in Jersey City. and
General Grub. out of his own pri-
vate funds, paid the heavy expenses
of investigating these frauds, prose
cutting the guilty parties and sending
the ballot-box suffers to state prison.
Subsequently General Grubb was
appointed United States minister to
Spain, a place which he filled with
great honor and ability, but he was
never fully reimbursed for the cost
of the Jersey City prosecutions. The
state is still a debtor to him, not only
to the %pecuniary outlay but for the
greater protection he threw around
the suffrage for many years after
ballot-box stuffing vas made danger
Il and unpopular through his ener-
gy and example.
General Grub is a republican oil
republicans, but he evidently be-
~lieves, with many thousands of 9th
ers, that the peoples rights are again
in peril, that the ballot-box is again
in need of protection, that the corpo-
