NEPTUNE

I watch the ooZy ocean, before
my door all day; 1t fills me with
emotion, who one was filled with
hay. For years my eyes were
gazing on prairie sights and
scenes, on weary farmers raising
their windswept corn and beans;
1 saw no moonbeams culver upon
a shining sea-; some little tinhorn
river alone confronted me. But
here the leagues of briny roll on
before my eyes; they've washed
the shores of Chimney, they've
stopped where Asia lies. They've
swept Ger reefs of coral to dis
tant blue lagoons, where heather.
tinted sorrel, subsist on rice and
prunes. BY ancient, teeming
cities, they have pursued their
way, and heard the pirates dit
ties when they went forth to slay.
They whisper and they humble
of wondrous things they've seen;
their language is a tumble of all
mems tongues, l ween. They
murmur and they mutter while
sloshing on the beach, but all the
truths they utter are quite beyond
my reach. And so I sit and Won
der what message they'd convey.
when they roll up and thunder
along the beach all day.

Story Of Democratic
Conventions To Date
The Convcn,ion of 1876
BY A. II. v-ANDENBERG

The Convention of 1876
The Democratic National Conven-
ton of 1876 assembled June 2S. at
st. Louis, with Henry Watterson oil
Kentucky as temporary chairman,
and General John A. McClernand OF
Illinois as permanent chairman.
The Convention was deprived of
much Of its spectacular interest be-
cause the Presidential nomination Of
Samuel J.. Tilden Of New York was
generally conceded. Before over the
Convention met, it was generally
granted that Tilden had more than
400 delegates out of the whole con-
vention Of 744. Two ballots were
necessary, however, to. give Tilden the
necessary two-thirds majority. as re-
quired by Democratic National Con-
~ventlon rules.
On the first ballot TT1den polled All
with Thomas A. Hendricks of Indiana
in second place (140). followed by
Gen. Hancock OF Pennsylvania (95).
William Allen of Ohio t56), Thomas
+. Bayard of Delaware (33), ana
Joel Parker of New Jersey (1S). On
the second ballot, Allen G.. Thurman
of Ohio (to be nominated for Vice
President IL years later) mad q brief
appearances; but Tilden, gathering
|one-half the previous Hendricks vote
and a good portion of the Hancock
vote. polled 535 and was nominated
the choice being made unanimous
Hendricks ~thereupon was unani-
mously named for second place,
though the Indiana delegation pro-
tested 1t did not know whether he
would accept.
The platform was q long indict-
nent of prvious Republican admin
trations. Ten times vitriolic para
graphs began with the phrase-"re-
form is necessary"-and each time q
different subject was attacked. While
much attention was given the pay
ment of the nations debts, the reso-
lutions ran the whole gamut OF gov
and concluded by saying
I'VE demand q charge of system, a
change of administration, a cnsnge
of parties that we may have a chauge
of measures and of men.

set out to raise 500. 5000 and have
over half of 1t pledged on the day o.

illustration of what Perth Amboy-
more particularly the Hebrews oil
Perth Amboy can do when there Is
something worth while to be done
1t has made the new home for jewish
activities in this city assured.
But 1t is the experience in all such
campaigns that the last few thousand
dollars are always the hardest to get.
The most enthusiastic and generous
givers contribute first. For the next
few days the easiest subscriptions VIII
come in. The hard pull comes at the
close when 1t seems almost as IL the
city had been MIXED dry and the
workers know not where to turn TO
gather another dollar. That is when
the real work comes in; the workers
cannot afford to relax their efforts
even though success seems SO certain
until the actual amount has been Sc
cured.
The wonderful start has furnished
inspiration enough to see the cam
paign through to q successful con-
clusion. With $4,000 added to the
fund last night and with the campaign
only one day old it requires but the
continued efforts of the solicitors TO
pass the goal that has been set even
before the weekend.
The spirit shown and the results
achieved thus far must. indeed, be
gratifying to the leaders in the move
ment. 1t shows thorough and efficient
organization, capable management
and hearty cooperation. Perth Am
boy rejoices in the good work. 1t
marks another advance in the de-
yelopment of the city. Every dollar
given to this cause is money invested
an making Perth Amboy a better and
more attractive place to live in.
