KLECTION DAY.
Tuesday next, Nov. 5th will be election
day. Tho Demccratlc and Republican
Stato and County tickets will be found at
the head of our columns to-day. There
appears to be but little Interest among our
people as to the result of th,o election so
far, It belnz a foregone conclusion that the
Democratic counts ticket will bo olected.Tbe
Republicans have no candidate for District
Attorney, hence Joseph Fisher, tho Demo
cratic candidate, cannot fail of election
Samuel B. Price, Dem., as against John
TPcar, Rep., will no doubt outrun the
latter for Associate Judge by a large ma
jorlty, as ho is well and favorably known
throughout the county as an honest and
couslstant gentleman. But tho tickets are
at the head of the column. Read them
carefully. You pay tho piper, so take

"While traveling in 'Germany and
Bayaria during the past summer I was.
much Interested in watching Ibe pcApl
drink beer." said Ralph L. Shalnwald of
New York city. "In Bayaria there was
keg of beer on the plasform of every station
When the train slopped there was a grand
rush to get at tho keg. Each man carried
hit own glass. After drinking all ho could
before tho train started tba beer drinker
filled hit glass to the brim and carried
into the car. After the glass was emptied
it was set upon tho window till of tho car,
All along the whole length of the train on
both sides these glasses sat on the window

tastes of tho passengers on tho train. At
one station I saw the train delayed for flv
minutes becaute tho keg was empty.
ful ono had to be procured before tb
passongcrs would resume their seats in tb

class contained, a pint and that the cost
was about the equivalent of two cents,
As an example of German beer capacity In
Jfunlch, Mr. Shalnwald said the beer was
served In glasses nearly one foot tall and
containing nearly one quart. An American
friend of tbo traveler tackled one of thete
glasses and managed to stow it away after
half an hour's hard work, A corpulent
German sitting near showed his contempt
for this feat by pointing to the half empt)

The Single Tax Party.
The following article on the aboye tub
ject from the pen of Hon. V. M. Rapsber,
. of Maucb Chunk, we clip from Juitkt, of
the 20th lntt. Read It.
Since tho recent Presidential election a pew
erful political force has boen brought upon the
the political stage. It Is boldly aggressive,
commanded by the best brains of the country,
and Is revolutionary in Its economic effects up
on present methods and syttems uf taxation. It
demands tho "abolition of all t .ues uion Indus-
try, and the taking, by taxation upon land
values, Irrespective f Improvements, of the ac
nu&l rental value of all Iheso various forms of
natural opportunities embraced under tho gen
ral term. Laud; and that, as a result, Involun
tary poverty will ba abolished, and tlie greed
Intemperance and vtce that spring from poverty
and ths UlllIAD OP roVEltT will ba swept
anar
The term Single Tax doet not really express
all tint a perfect name would convey, aa)t its
leading advocate. It only suggests the fiscal
side of the question. And, In reality, the Bln
glo Tax li not tax at all. Hut It Is a tax In
form, and tho term It useful, as suggesting
method. But, Use all reform and progress
during the past, the Single Taxnisn are 'fought
ttepby step.
Asa notable illustration, I bz leave to briefly
quote Prof. T. II. Huxley, from an arilcl In tlia
Nineteenth Century, entitled "Th struggle for
existence." lie says: "One of the most essen
tial conditions, If not the chief Oiute.of the
struggle for existence la the tendency to multl
ply without limit, which man. shares with all
living things ... so long as unlimited m'ul
ils BHlt gtts u. ns sotlal oigmUalWu wkUb

which is thexhtecl of societi."
it was In quite ntiother ago when the cele
brated Maltlms laid down a similar doctrine.
Is It a ease of the "survival of the fittest?" To
stay tho pcrslstohco of poverty, nmld advancing
wealth, labor-saving machinery and liluhost
Ucvclopment of tho arts nnd sciences, tho itr.st-
Rir of the Single Tax party, Is to restore the
common nnd natural rlghtto land lo tho poople;
and so lit lo cause as little political disturbance
as possible, It proposes to do this by the simple
method of gradually placing all luxation npi n
.and VALVK9. Ths new party rightly Insists
that there Is something radically wrong In a
governmental organization that leads to such
an uuoqital distribution of wealth, with such
unequal opportunities ns everywhere stare ns
Inlhefaco. Will our statesmen and political
economists persist In tho old-tlmo theory, that
all things are ordained for the host, and that
there Is no practical remedy for our dangerous
social Ills!
Tho people are rlpo for a change. Tho great
cstdlfflculty that tho Single Tax party encotin
Mrs Is not In Its moral, economic nnd legal as
pects, but It Is in getting tho people to uudcr
stand Its theory nnd practical application, and
to make common cause to rlxht their wrongs.
Will the remedy proposed by tho new jxirty
bring about happiness nnd remove from human
ity that "DHKADFUL FHAIt OF WANT"
which It so ably contendsfthatltwlll?
It Is a grandly sublime nnd at the same time
an Intensely practical question, nnd well worth
considering. It is a rapidly growing social and
political problem by far tho most Impoitant
political question of the age, and It Is here to
stay until It Is solved.
Who can throw any row light upon It?

BROADBRIM'S J. Y. LETTER.
For tho next ten days we will have to be
excused If wc deyotc our lime to saving the
nation, for that appears to bo the present
stake. In addition to the Stato officers
New York city elects senators and mem
bers of the Legislature and Brooklyn a
mayor In addition to her Lcglslatlyo repre
sentatives. As in every fight of this kind
there are wheels within wheels, so the
present political contest is not without its
embarrassing complications. In no section
of tho Stato do the Democrats present
united front, and the peacewhtch passcth
political understanding Is not found in the
wigwam of tbe Republicans. So that as
far as unity of action Is concerned Ono Is a
complete stand-off against tho other. Tbe
mere election of a mayor and aldermen
with a few Stale representatives In any
city In the Stato of New York would seem
to bo an Insignificant affair, and so It
would bo under ordinary clicumstances,
but as I remarked a moment ago, there are
A'hecls within wheels, and on the elections
of these two municipalities may depend the
character of the United States Senate, and
three years hence the complexion of the
Presidency, henco the Importance of tbe
stake
The present mayor of Brooklyn, Mr.
Cbapln, is In training for the Governor
ship of tho State. Governor Hill, the
present incumbent, has an eye upon the
White nonse with a not very remote possl
bility of reaching It. Ho is now making a
Jour of tho South with the object of ex
tending his political acquaintance, and
from tho flattering reports of the newspa
pcrs bas no causo to regret his journey.
New York was the factor that decided tho
Presidential election In the last campaign,
and tbo man who can certainly carry New
Yoik three years hence will distance all
other competitors in the next Democratic
National Conyentlon. To say that the
Republicans are alive to the situation Is
putting It very mildly, and looking on the
possibility of losing tho Stato in the Prcsl
dentlal fight of 1892, they wish to protect
themselves from the chance of disaster bv
securing such a majority In the United
Mates bcuate. that if the worst comes to
tbe worst they can still "Hold tho Fort."
So we drop all business for tbe time and
address ourselyos to saving the nation.
Jayor Chanln, of Brooklyn, who Is now
a candidate for re-election, has bad a
phenomenal career. Eight years ago be
was an unkDowu yonng man In one of the
most aristocratic and strongest Republican
wards iu Brooklyn. In that particular
district a Democrat stood no chanco what
ever of election, but they made their nom
(nations as a matter of forn. Mr. Cbapii
received the nomination lu tho memorable
ear of the Folger fight, when Grover
Cleveland was elected' Governor, and the
Republican patty was snowed under by
Democratic majority of 183,000. In that
peillous time a rebellion broke out In the
Twenty-third ward, the Banner Republican
ward of Brookljn. The Republicans left
their own candidate and voted for Mr,
Uhapln and sentbim U the Legislature by
a handsome majority. He was re-elected
and made speaker of the nouso, tho Dem
ocfats by a fortunate chance haying con
trol of tbe loner House for the first time in
.-jeycral years. He then received the nom
matlon for Comptroller and was elecud
ho was afterwarde forced upon the Demo
cratlc ring of Brooklyn by tho "Brooklyn
Eagle," the ablest Democratic paper In
Urooklvu or New York, and while his ad
ministration bas been, measurab y success
fill, ht bas giyen mortal offense to tbe old
party leadeis by refusing to bo led by them
and while they dare not oppose his re
nomination they will carry razors In their
boots to the polls. Coi. Balrd, the Repub
llcan nominee, Is an hvnored citizen and a
bravo soldier, and the last time he. ran
against Mr. Chapin, in a vote of oyer one
hundred thousand was only defeated by a
few hundred, to that each parfy is busy
furbishing up its anus for the tight which
takes place in November.
Our swu city so far has not been able to
reconcile the rlyal factions of Tammany
and tbe County Democracy. Maurice
Power has a chip on bis shoulder which
Dick Croker of Tammany doesn't care to
knock off, and in the meanwhile Maurice
Power Is not anxious to tread on tho tail
of .Dick broker's coal. Each party goes
loaded for ba'r aud I shall not be aston
illicd to set wigs on the greon before elec
tion day.
Tammany has the inside track. Tam
many has all the offices, and consequently
all tho giace and all the friends; while the
Counties declare that they have all the re
spectability and all the honesty and all the
Intelligence that remains in tbo Democrat
ic parly I New York, Its a niolghty pur
ty folght as It sthands; who will be tbe
undtr dog In It I can't tell, but I'm for the
under dug eyery time.
A few years ago garrotting became quite
popular with highwaymen here, and not a
day passed for months but-some victim
was picked up In tbe streets who had been
garrotted and robbed. A lew fifteen year
sentences and a pretty sound clubbing by
tba police put an end to it, and wo have
beard no more of It sinco. Theu came the
badger game aud tbo green goods games,
by which many men were duped and
fleeced, but a sharp retribution has stamped
them out, and now we are all iu a blaze of
excitement as tho city teems given over to
saudbaggers. Who are they? and how Is
it dons? Oh, very slupla, for uufwtunate-

from it is almost as fatal as the blow of. a ( cessful bmlitpm for si-vcra! ur, until t a
leaden billy, but It leayes no mark of Its
dreadful work, though the victim may bo
killed by tho blow. Every day this week
some ono has been found who has been
assaulted In this way, and one of them
died in tlie hospital a few hours after lie
was discovered.
The fight between the municipal author
ities and tho electric light companies
which has culminated since- tho shocking
death of lineman Fecks, nnd has resulted
in leaving a largo part of tho city in total
darkness; this has hecn'tho thieves' oppor
tunity and now after dark in several of tho
bad districts of tho city a man travels with
his life in his hand.
A noted bookmaker and gambler had a
peculiar cxpcrlenco tbo other night which
will serve hint for tho rest -of bis life. It
is an old saying, "That hawks will not
plck.ont hawks' eyes," but these night
hawks aro a yery peculiar breed; thoy had
just as soon rob each other as an outsider.
He Is In flash parlance a sporting man, In
other words n gambler, a bookmaker on
races, and the proprietor of a whiskey mill
on Grand atrcot.besldcs being Interested In
a Bowery Dime Museum. Now any rea
sonable man would say that a sporting
centlcman with a pull like that might walk
with unmeshed feet feet from tho Battery
to Klngsbrldge wlthoutoverturntn'ga hair.
Whiskey selllne, dime museums and book
making must bo good average kinds of
business, for at three o'clock on Satin clay
morning ho was seeking bis virtuous couch,
with seven thousand dollars In his pockets.
Pickpockets, sneak thlcvps, bunco stcciers,
footpads, hlghwajmep, faded harlots, and
all sorts of bad characters do much abound
here. It Is not a safe place for a stranger
In the middle of tho day and on a dark
night like that which Intervened between
Friday and Saturday morning, It is worth
aman'sllfe to walk a block; but tho captain
had been there before many a tlme;he was
used to traveling with his pockets full of
the Unlled States obligation to pay, Ac;
In addition to which he sported a gold
ticker that weighed about a half a pound,
fastened to his ample vest bj golden links,
that on occasslon might haye served for
an ox chain. Ills shirt hpsom was adorned
by a six carat and a"half diamond that in a
measure supplied tho absence of the clcc
trie lights whose suspension wo now
mourn. In addition to the aboye, be was
a fighter from away back, and he tipped
tbo scales at ono hundred and ninety-six
and a half, so that no ordinary snoozer had
any1 business to go hunting for loose ducats
when ths captain was around. But the
captain had closed bis saloon for tbe night
at tlie hour of one, like a virtuous citi
zen; he then repaired to a Bowery restaur
ant, and placed himself outside bf a porter-
bouse sleak, fried potatoes, and a bottlo of
bass, and started for borne. His line of
march lay wltbin a stones throw of the
police headquarters; he looked up at the
great marble pile, but all was silent, for
gaurdians of tho panes were all in a pro
found sleep. He" bad not gone far when
he becanio awaro that he had company
and clutching the load of greenbacks In
his coat tall pocket, he quickened tils pace
but his companions did not linger behind;
perhaps they had trained In a walking
match, at any rato they were equal to the
occasion. At last they camo to a place
where a "building was going up, so they
dodged across the street and hurried ahead,
but tlie captain was not to bo caught In
tho trap, and like tbe sensible mau that he
Is took the middle of the street. Then tho
ihleycs threw off all dlsgulso and made tho
.rush for him, and he like a bravo man
took to his heels. It was an even race for
a block, and finally ono of the thieves
caught up with him and grabbed his watch,
and tho captain shot out his left han J duke
and caught the bandit on his right side
light. Just then bandit No.' 2 caught the
captain a welt with a sandbag and sent
him to grass, but he held on to bis watch
while tho hijhwaymen lost tho opportunity
of their live? In not securing the captain's
coat-tails In which quietly reposed seyen
thousand dollars In greenbacks. After'a
a desperate struggle tbe captain reached
his own door, when tbo sound of apporch
ing footsteps frightened the robbers and
they ran away, but not before tbey had
given him two or three more good welts
with the sandbag.
With our streets In darkness we are In a
pretty bad condition, and now curse our
foil v for having dismantled all the old gas
lamps, Instead of keeping them ready for
just such an emergency as that which is
now upon us. You will get j our letters
right along, for Broadbrim will not expose
himself to a sandbag till the electric lights
aie fixed.
li e have had another fatal miscarriage
of justice here In the caso of DsctorDownle.
You whl doubtless recollect some .months
ago I reported his case when be murdered
his paramour with poison. The caso was
peculiar. Dr. Downle was a physician of
largo piactice In Edinburgh, and was
married to a lady of fortune. He, how
ever, fell In Ioyo with an Ignorant woman
by the name of Jessie Duff, and to tbe
great scandal of his family fled with her to
Now York, she bringing with her two of
her children. Before his escapade became
known here bis diplomas and letters gained
him a standing among tbo best medical
men in lirookb n where he settled. But
his Ioyo for his paramour soon, coo ed, and
he commenced a system of brutality and
abuse which finally ended In her death.
Both were of violent tempers, aud both
drank to excess to drown their sorrow. At
last on one of their drunken bouts while
the woman was in a helpless condition be
gave her a terrible beating, so that the un
fortunate creature took lo her bed. On
the tablo beside her the doctor placed a
preparation of bl-sulphate of mercury, and
urged her to take it. She look it and
died. To a neighbor who called In to see
her when she was dIng she made till
siaiemeui. ii was not inaue unuer oatn In
the belief that sho was dying nor iu the
presence of an officer, so It went for noth
ing. On tho new of Dr. Downlo's peril,
his brotbe hastened over from Scotland to
his assistance; he had plenty of money,
aud suddenly all of tlie witnesses of Dr,
Downlo's abuse of his mistress became
dumb as oysters. The District Attorney
could not get proof to frame an Indictment,
aud this week the criminal marched a free
man out of Comt.
