THE POLITICAL FIELD. The Milford correspondent has been letting his mind take another vacation while writing on tho sub ject of polities in this county, and thus summarizes matters. He says this year every office in the county, except Sheriff will bo voted for, and this fact, coupled with tho dis trict, state and national elections, keen politicians, who in former years were conspicicious by reason of their silence, unusually busy Now won't he be a little more defi nite and snto what politician in this county has ever been "conspi cuously silent, unless it be our present member of Congress. He further says Pike is for Pattison and Quay for Presidents, and that in the congressional and senatorial matters things are very quiet, that since Howard Mutehlor is not a can didate, Joseph J. Hart, tho present member and editor of the " Pike County Dispatch, " stands an excel lent show for re-election. This is accurate, and interesting. Wo nev er knew of any such paper hero.but it must be the one for which that editor writes. The same correspondent says that opposing Mr. Hart is Dr. J. H. Shull of Monroe, who has been a candi date many times but it is generally conceded that the doctor will fall in line for Hart. This is a pieco of news the genial doctor will no doubt relish and he will hasten to "turn ble." The dispatch says for Senator the name of Laf Rowland, the present incumbent, is prominently brought forward, and that as yet no other persons have signified their intention of entering the race. This sooms a little previous considering that the Senator has two years yet to serve, but it shows the .comprehensive knowledge of the writer on political matters. ", Candidates for oounty offices are also looming up thickly," it says Does this, mean a reference to the manner of looming, or does it refer to tho number. If to i the former, on behalf of of onr Democratic friends we repuili ate the insinuation. They have not appeared in that condition yet to any extent. How they may behave when the "conflict thickens" is an other question, which we will not anticipate. If he refers to the num ber, it is an assertion which simply comprehends an axiomatic truth, chronic condition, and is not news. The woods here are full of states men, ready to sacrifice personal com fort to serve their country. They are in the hands of their friends and are always willing to be earn estly solicited to run for an office Why not, when no county in the state pays as good salaries for the same amount of lubor as the affluent County of Pike. NEWSPAPER COMPETITION. There is to-day a strong competi tion between the daily newspapers of New York, and the success which the " World " attained by methods peculiarly its own have been to greater or loss degree.and with vary ins financial success copied by ita oonrpetitors. The newspaper of to day is not the newspaper of a few ypnrs ago. it is now a, monmromry in b1m much hnntTnompr and puh- slios the news of the world In de tail, hut it is a question of It Is as carefully or as well edited. The groat point now is to elaborate and Vie sensntionnl. Little effort is made to ascertain the truth of the news, te reports and stories. Long In- rviews are published which have no other foundation than the inven- itive genious of the writer, conver sations are given which are purely imaginary, thrilling tales are told based on distorted facta or perver ted hearsay and a total disregard of veracity. There are desperate strug gles, hairbroath escapes, yawning chasms, thousands of snakes and enormous boars, a glossing of facta nd unlimited exaggeration of truth. There are minute reports of crimes, murders and suicides are told with xtravagance of detail, morbid curi osity is aroused and the baser na tures inflamed. The Sunday news- paiKr is even worse in this respect than the daily. They are intended to foster and cultivate a taste for such a sensationalism to the exclu sion of soljer sense and reason, and absorb the Sabbath and all thoughts of ita sanctity. They should be kept out of every family. I'he colored pictures and doubtful tovies are calculated to captivate nd poison the young and tender mind. People are begining to rea- lizo these facts and are becoming more and more skeptical of the truth of the reports of current events as contained in such newspapers. We trust the time will soon come when a candid and careful statement of news, and an intelligent and conser ative comment thereon will be de manded of the newspaper. SCHOOL STATISTICS. Through the courtesy of County Superintendent Sawyer we are in possession of the annual report for 1H!)5 of N. C- Schsoffor, superinten dent of public instruction, and from it we briefly extract the following in regard to Pike county. The value of school property is 140.700.00. The numbor of permanent certificates granted is 6. There are 64 school houses and 75 school rooms, and but one house without sufficient seat ing capacity. No new school houses were built during the year, 47 are classed as good and 43 as having suitable furniture. There are 68 schools, 2 graded. The Bible is read in all. Ten publio examinations were held, 103 provisional and 7 pro fessional certificates were granted. Ten applicants were rejected, twen ty-one males and 47 female teachers are employed, and their average age is 23 years. There are four who are graduates of a normal school. The average wages paid to males is $28 11 and to females $26.69. Twelve schools have 9 months ; 28, 7 months and 28, 6 months. There are 989 male and 929 female scholars. The average attendance is 1,258 and the average cost per month $1.35. This ahows that an average 660 scholars do not attend the schools. Superin tendent Sawyer made during the year 147 visits, held 10 publio exam nations and examined 120 applicants Ho reports a year of slow but steady progress, but says the annual re ports show a decrease in attendance, and that irregularity is one of the greatest drawbacks. He hopes that parents will co-operate with officers and teachers to raise the percentage of attendance. He commends the teachers for good work but says there still remains ample opportun ity for improvement along the lines of pedagogical study. Miss Annie Vieser was tendered a confirmation party by her parents last Sunday evening -at their resi dence, 206 West Kinney street Dancing and musical selections, vo cal and instrumental constituted the evening's enjoyment. Miss Vieser was the recipient of many handsome presents. Newark Sunday Call. The Cull does not state in what Church this young lady wa4 con firmed, and perhaps it is just as well it did not. If the above is correct version of the affair it would seem as if the Church which could permit such rejoicings over the con flrmation of a member, on Sunday, must be broad gauge indeed. There can be none of the straight and nar- row path bussiness about it. takes the " time for dancing " in ita most literal sense, and is not troub led about such trifles as religion when it stands in the way of amusement. No one denies in this free country the right of every one to his or her own religious belief. however peculiar or fantastic it may be, but when it comes to the expresv siou of religions fervor in a salta tory maimer on Sunday evening we think the line ought to be drawn even in " Spain," which country is i a some reesiiects rather confusing in its religious practices. A few days ago a long statement was mode in several papers declaring Cleveland had written and placed in the hands Secretary Lamont a letter declining to be a candidatefor a third term, to be used as a rod in the event that the Presidential lighten ing should begin to strike too near his sacred person. Mr. Lamont de nies that any such letter has been written.or that he never hoard of it. Evidently the President thinks he is no danger or else like Barkis he la willin " to bo hit. " Satan rebuking sin " is a term tliat might be applied to the Eastern Democrat's tirade against the management of the State Demo cracy. The Mutehlor management has placed the , rock-ribbed Demo cracy of Northampton in the hands of the enemy. Not onlyv has he brought defeat in Northamptonbut he demoralized neighboring coun ties. It ill-becomes the' Mutchler gang to talk about vicious manage ment. Lansfood Record. It is much better for Carbon Dem. ocrats to concede Pike's rights in the Congressional battle, and then take two full terms, by rotation, in 1898 and 1900. This arrangement makes it possible to elect candidates on the county tibket this year. Cra mer, Swartz, Sweeney, Kutz, O' Donnel, and others are not going to play the fool for Northampton coun ty. Not on your life. Lansford Re cord. THE LADIES' COLUMN. Chef.sk Straws.

Ex-Governor Campbell Believes tho Honss Will Have to Eleet tho Next President. "I want international free coinage of silver at a ratio of b to 1," laid ex Governor James E. Campbell of Ohio. "I consider single gold standard advo cates as much wrong on one side as I believe single silver standard men on the other. I am opposed to onr country going ahead alone and coining silver free. No one nation can do it and sur vive, but the United States, Germany and Franoe could do so without Eng land's co-operation. With an interna tional agreement all troubles with the money qnestion would vanish, and I ex pect to live to see such an arrangement effected." The ex-governor was talking with several local politicians when he made this statement. The conversation then witched and Mr. Campbell said : "Any good man who wants it can have the Democratic nomination for president this year. " "Do yon want it?" was asked. ' "I am not candidate," was the re ply. "Would yon accept it?" . "The possibility of having a chance to do so seems so remote that I don't think it worth considering, bnt jnst now I should refuse. Whitney and Hat thews would make a splendid team if they wonld accept. New York and In diana is good old Democratic combi nation, and I don't know bow we wonld feel if the two states were not both rep resented on the ticket. "Bnt I believe," he continued, "that the next president will be elected by the house of representatives. There will be fight in both the national convention! between the extreme gold men and the extreme silver men. Both are cranks. The two parties as Democrats and Re publicans have really no difference on the money qnestion. The silver men will not be satisfied with the Repub lican platform, and they will bolt and lose the party enough states to throw the election of the president into the house. " "What sort of money planks will the national platform contain?" "That I cannot say, bnt thia is the day of straddles. The Republican party claims to favor a gold standard, yet none of the leaders will come out and declare for it in so many words. If Mo Kiuley has done it, I have not beard of it. Therefore a compromise plank with the Republicans will be a straddle." "What about the Republican nomina tion for president?" ".Well, they don't seem to have ar rived at any understanding yet. " "How about McKinley?" "Oh, nothing, only he'll find a great deal of green goods in his grip when ha unpacks it in St Louis. " The (allow Dog BnL It seems that, whenever a political party gets so strong that its leader think they could elect a yellow dog if it were nominated, then they all begin to act like the nominee.
