THURSDAY, SEPT. 13, 1894. Entered at the Post-Office at Ocean City, N. J. as second-class mail matter.

THE forest fires still rage in some localities in spite of the heavy rains, which indeed have been heavy in spots. A more uniform and impartial distribution of the moisture precipitated so widely in the last four or five days would have enhanced immensely their advantage to the country. Nature has her own way of doing things, however, and the floods and so-called cloudbursts that did damage in so many places have left the Minnesota woods still burning, fanned by high winds but unaffected by the slight sprinkling that there was substituted for the heavy downfall elsewhere. Doubtless the heat of the burning forests was itself the barrier to a heavier precipitation from the heavily saturated atmosphere that has rested upon this continent for the past week. THE Democrats are in a bad way with reference to campaign literature. The Senate and House having been at odds over the Tariff bill, the arguments made in the two houses conflict, and the Democratic reader is at a loss to decide upon the orthodoxy of the disputants. To complicate the situation, the Republicans will send out as a campaign document the President's letter to Mr. Wilson, scoring the Senate bill which subsequently became a law. In the closing days of the Senate the Democrats tried to get some speeches in the "Record" attempting to put the best front on their family jars, but, as they had no quorum of their own, and the Republicans took advantage of this to choke off partisan speeches, the Democrats find themselves in the lurch. --Philadelphia Ledger.

CHEAP THINGS. This is the reign of cheap things. The newspapers are full of advertisements of goods reduced in price "all on account of the tariff."

What do all these cheap things signify? They mean, American manufacturers must produce goods cheaper even than the foreign products that are flooding the market, or go under. To meet this "cheap competition" the cost of production must be lessened. To accomplish this wages must go down.

The American laborer must work for less than the foreigner or he will have

to take a back seat--give up his job and starve! There is no other alternative. Competition is the life of trade--and the death of profits. America must meet pauper competition with cheaper labor. The bars have been let down by the Democrats and the foreigner is

allowed to run riot in American markets. Manufactured goods will be cheap

by comparison only--but if the American citizen has no money to pay for them they are dear at any price. While manufactured goods are cheap, the cost of living remains and will remain about the same when rent, etc., is taken into consideration. Things are cheap, but why are there so many empty houses in every American city to-day where the people are dependent on manufactories for employment? The answer is plain--the people are compelled to leave their respectable homes and seek out hovels in which to live under these "cheap" Democratic times. Clothing is cheap, but how many American citizens are there who are going about in rags, or at best with patches--those great badges of Cleve-

landism--upon their breeches?

The great statesman, Governor McKinley, in his masterful speech Saturday night in Bangor, Maine, incisively tore apart the measure which is responsible for these "cheap" things and these frightful shut-down times with their smokeless factory chimneys and manifold misery. After speaking in reference to even the unsatisfactory manner in which the bill was accepted by the great Democracy, the Governor of Ohio, in a burst of eloquence exclaimed:

"Democratic leaders and press console themselves by declaring that the new law, after all, is better than the act

of 1890. Better for whom? Better in which particular? Not better in its free list! Not better in its dutiable list! Not better for American industry. Not better for American labor. Not better

for the American farmer.

Better than the law of 1890! A law under the operation of which every man in this country was employed at good wages! Every factory was running at its full capacity and the consumer was securing the necessaries of life cheaper than he had ever received them before! Does any thoughtful man believe that the law of 1894 will ever restore these happy conditions here in the United States? The law of 1890 was enacted for the American people and the American home. Whatever mistakes were made by it were all made in favor of the occupations and the firesides of the American people. It didn't take away a single day's work from a solitary American workman. It gave work and wages to all, such as they had never had before. It did it by establishing new and great industries in this country; which increased the demand for the skill and handiwork of our laborers [?]ere." How foolish did the American laborer act when, in the face of the above men-

tioned prosperous times, and under the workings of that beneficent law, he deliberately threw away his good fortune and leaped into a bog of "cheap things," madly chasing an ignis fatuus which he now realizes to his sorrow is a mockery and a deception!

This is the era of "cheap things." Such an era, however, produces "cheap men." The Democracy is productive of cheapness. It creates cheap statesmen. It makes human labor cheap, and it belittles and lessens everything American.

This is the day of cheap things and not only is Democracy responsible for closed down factories, for mortgages on homes, for tramp armies, for strikes, for soup houses, for suffering, misery and humiliation in thousands of homes, but

it has created a feeling of "cheapness" in the heart of every American citizen, when he considers that his birthright--

his good wages--his prosperity--his respectability--all have been sold for a

mess of Cleveland pottage.

Wedding Bells.

Charles H. Heustis, editor of the Philadelphia "Inquirer," was married at 1.30 Monday afternoon to Chestena Hamilton, at the residence of the bride's parents, Captain and Mrs. Manchester Eldridge, 636 North Thirty-second street, Philadelphia, in the presence of the families of the contracting parties only, by the Rev. J. Addison Henry, D. D., pastor of Princeton Presbyterian Church. The groom was dressed in the conventional morning suit. The bride wore a handsome traveling dress of brown corded silk, with white vest and hat to match, and carried in her hand a lovely bouquet of Bride roses. The ceremony was performed under a bower of palms and the parlors were filled with plants and blossoms. The marriage ceremony was solemn and impressive, and the troth was plighted

with a ring. As befits such an occasion,

the groom looked happy and the bride was radiant. Mr. and Mrs. Heustis left immediately for their honeymoon in Canada. Mr. Heustis, as the editor of the "Inquirer," is well known in the State and nation. The bride is a young woman of many personal graces and has unusual literary ability. On their return the couple will begin housekeeping in West Philadelphia. Rev. Robert H. Fulton, D. D., was to have performed the ceremony, but he is on his way from Europe. The vessel was due Sunday, but had not been reported at noon on Monday. The bride and groom occupied a handsome Central avenue cottage here during the past season, and only returned home about two weeks ago to prepare for the wedding.

The Seashore Railroad Bonds Illegal.

Vice Chancellor Pitney in Camden Monday called together the counsel in the case of P. P. Baker, Receiver, vs. The Philadelphia & Seashore Railroad, and informed them that he was preparing a written opinion in the case which was quite voluminous. He informed them that he would hold all the bonds to be illegal, but such of them as have gotten into the hands of innocent purchasers for value shall stand for the amount pledged. This will give bona fide bondholders a very satisfactory advantage. The case in question has been in litigation for several years, and involved the legality of $752,000 worth of bonds which were issued by the Philadelphia & Seashore Company. The full opinion will be handed down in about two weeks. The Vice Chancellor also declared that the contract between E. R. Wood and the Seashore Company for the building of the road from Tuckahoe was illegal.

Excitement at an Atlantic City Hotel.

There was much excitement at the Kenilworth Inn, on Kentucky avenue, Atlantic City, Friday morning, when the Sheriff and a deputy attempted to sell the goods and chattels of the proprietress, Mrs. Anna Grubb, under a chattel mortgage held by a Woodstown, N. J., bank. The Sheriff had no writ from court, and Lawyers Endicott and Pancoast, counsel for Mrs. Grubb, at once objected to the proceedings. Before the Sheriff and his deputy could interpose the two lawyers locked the doors of the hotel, barring out the officers and about 50 people, who had come to buy. The Sheriff did not care to assume the responsibility of making a forcible entry and the sale was postponed. Subsequently Mrs. Grubb's attorneys instituted foreclosure proceedings, making all creditors parties to the sale.

The Opening of School.

The public schools opened on Monday with a full attendance and all the teachers at the head of their respective departments--L. R. Thomas, principal; Miss Julia C. Morton in the intermediate and Miss Gertrude Price the primary department. There were twenty-two pupils in Mr. Thomas' room, thirty-two in Miss Morton's room and thirty in Miss Price's. The scholars seemed glad to get back to school again. The trustees have had the two lower rooms neatly painted and papered, which adds greatly to the appearance as well as to the comfort of all concerned. Our school rooms are second to none in the county.

An Atlantic City Den Raided.

Beckie Halfner, whose disreputable resort on Delaware avenue was raided by the police late Wednesday night was Thursday sentenced to pay $150 fine and serve thirty days in the county jail. The four inmates were fined $20 each, and remanded in default. It was revealed at the hearing that Minnie Schoenkop, a young Polish girl whom the Police found, at the Delaware avenue house, was held there against her wish. She was abducted from Brooklyn soon after her arrival in this country by one Samuel Levenwitch, for whom the police are now looking.

I am prepared to furnish a first-class red brick guaranteed to withstand the frost or climatic changes, which has no superior in the market at the present time for use in paving. Not only are they a superior article, but the cost is much less than those of other brands now in use in our town. YOUNGS CORSON.

CAPSISED IN THE INLET. Three Saved from Drowning at Atlantic City.

While attempting to cross the inner

inlet bar Monday afternoon the catboat

Elsie W., sailed by Captain Howell Frambes, capsized, and the skipper and his three passengers had an extremely

narrow escape from drowning. The yacht was chartered early in the morning by C. A. Jones, Joseph Heppestall

and Jonathan Wood, three Philadel-

phians, for a day's fishing.

When the bar was reached on the return trip the crowd who were watching her from the Inlet pavilion saw her

topple over on her side. A number of boatmen manned the sloop Alert and started to the rescue. Almost at the

same time the government life-saving crew put out from their station farther up the beach.

The yacht arrived on the scene first and lost no time in transferring the wrecked party from the overturned boat to the Alert.

Row Over Prisoners.

At a meeting of the Board of Freeholders held here last week a special committee was appointed to ascertain the number of persons committed to the county jail from Atlantic City, so that the county can make demand upon the city for maintaining them, under a provision of the city charter. There promises to be a bitter fight before the city members will allow any more of the county expenses to be borne by Atlantic City. The county members claim that over two-thirds of the inmates of the jail are from Atlantic City.

Exciting Fight on a Big Excursion Boat.

Fully 16,000 colored people participated in the annual excursion to Atlantic City Thursday, and the Pennsylvania and Reading Railroads were taxed to their utmost capacity to accommodate the excursionists. There was an exciting scene on one of the Reading Railroad trains, when William Scott, of West Philadelphia, attempted to grab a cab full of money from William Turner, one of the committee. Both men rolled off the train while struggling for the cash, and Scott was arrested and locked up for a hearing.

Atlantic County Assembly Candidates. Candidates for the Republican Assembly nominations are springing up from all sections of Atlantic county.

The names thus far mentioned are: S. S. Hudson, May's Landing; John Anderson and M. L. Jackson, Hammonton; Israel G. Adams, Linwood; Mayor J. C. Farr and L. H. Barrett, Pleasantville, Dr. G. P. Gehring, Samuel B. Rose and Robert H. Ingersoll, Atlantic City.

A Midnight Visit from the Elder Booth. "Speaking of Edwin Booth," said an old lady, "reminds me of a story my husband used to tell of a memorable encounter with the elder Booth. He (my husband) was traveling on horseback through the south before our marriage, when stress of weather made him take refuge in the home of the great actor. He was ensconced in the guest chamber for the night and was just drop-

ping off to sleep as his unlocked door slowly opened. He started up to see his host enter bearing aloft a candle that cast a sickly ray across the bed. Advancing with measured tread, he asked in a low, deep voice:

"'Have you prayed tonight?'" "The guest admitted that his devotions had been missed.

"'Rise, kneel by that bedside and say the Lord's prayer,' was the next speech. Impressed by his manner, my husband tumbled out of bed, fell on his knees and repeated the words of the prayer.

"'Is that all you make out of the grandest utterance in literature?' cried Booth. "And he dropped upon his knees, put his palms together, and then, my husband used to say, in a voice of surpassing strength and melody began his supplication, giving to the familiar sentences such depths of eloquence and such richness of meaning as they had never possessed for him before."--New York Times.

The Destructive Jackdaw.

In a gentleman's park in the county of Durham, says an English writer, a number of pheasants are reared every year. The keeper, on going to feed them, was surprised to find the bodies of four young pheasants lying on the grass outside the coops without heads. He made careful search for ver-

min, such as rats or weazels, but without effect. He left the dead pheasants for awhile, and on his return found a considerable number more disposed of in the same way. He was quite puzzled and resolved to seek assistance. Fully 20 young ones were disposed of, all in the same way. After watching a con-

siderable time a pair of jackdaws made their appearance and were not long in commencing their raid on the young ones again. They quietly dragged them out from below the hens and pulled their heads off and carried them to a clump of trees, where they had their nest with young ones, and fed them with the heads. As soon as the keeper was satisfied that the jackdaws were the delinquents he shot them.

A Stranger In Newport.

Newport is [?]. To the favored few who [?] right set it is the gayest and [?] and summer resort in the world. Outsiders who put up a [?] find it the dullest place they were [?]. People who are not in the sacred [?], to be sure, but they [?] that they [?] they have [?] stand in the avenue and [?] hands tooled [?] driven [?] of the ballroom, but unless they have some society man with them they know no one who passes. As for gayety, they neither see ball nor dinner, nor even a fete champetre, nor a band of music, and when they stray to the gate of paradise every one from the gentlemanly cottager to the haughty lackey looks at them as if to say, "What the devil business have you to exist?"--Cor. San Francisco Argonaut.

BOOK NEWS. Thousands on thousands have read the fascinating novels written by "The Duchess," and wondered who she is. BOOK NEWS for September tells; tells her history, tells her work, and gives a plate paper portrait of her--Mrs. Hungerford.

But the marrow of BOOK NEWS is the list of new books. By far the fullest, fairest, freshest list published anywhere.

You can get the spirit of all the important new books from it as easily as you can catch the drift of events from the news summary of a daily newspaper. BOOK NEWS is 5; 50c. a year. JOHN WANAMAKER.

WOODLAND CEMETERY. A Great Want Supplied. A charter has been recently obtained and a Tract of Land containing thirty acres situate on the south side of the railroad, north of Ocean View station, secured, and has been surveyed and laid out with convenient and tastefully arranged drives and plotted in lots, a plan of which can be seen at the office of Jos. I. Scull, Secretary, Sea Isle City, or Robt. Fisher, Ocean City. All lots are larger than customary size.

The West Jersey Railroad Company has built a large platform and made Woodland Cemetery a regular stop for all local trains, thus affording a great convenience for funerals to come on the train, either from Ocean City, Sea Isle City or Avalon. The prices of Burial Lots in the Woodland Cemetery are cheaper than in any other firstclass cemetery in the county. The Company invite special attention to the numerous advantages offered to purchasers in their grounds. Come in and view them. Nature and art incite inspection and admiration. Now is the time to secure a place of interment in the very best cemetery in South Jersey. We say the VERY BEST. It is so on account of its improvements. The cemetery is highly respectable in the character and class of interments in its grounds; many advantages and inducements concentrate here to attract the living, and on account of elevation it is eminently the best. Besides, it is not embarrassed with debt. It is not exceeded anywhere as a beautiful and final resting place. For further information apply to JOS. I. SCULL, Secretary, Sea Isle City, N. J.
