A Quarter Million Embezzled. THE DEFAULTER A FUGITIVE. Beauties cf Bess Rule. On Thursday August 31, Major Ellis P. Phipps, ex- superintendent of the Philadelphia almshouse, was arrested for embezzlement, and was bound over in $.5,000, for a hearing on Friday. When the time for the hearing had ar rived Phipps was not on hand ;he had forfeited bis bail and skipped, and a new warrant was issued. It was sup posed that some new and interesting revelation would be made if the major could be brought to the bull ring, and the bosses, fearing this, have sprint ed him away. lie can tell unpleasant tales. Running away is the best evi dence that Phipps is guilty of the thieving he is accused of. When Rob % *rt E. Pattison becomes Governor of his State lie will see to it that the laws are "faithfully" against such thieves as Major Phipps proves himself to be. His defalcations will amouut to a quarter of a million. - The Philadelphia "Evening Tele graph" of Wednesday, Sept. 6th, has the following: It is generally conceded among politicians that the sudden flight of tiie ex-superintendent of the alms house and the disclosures which follow ed it will have an important bearing on the fortunes of the candidates of three great political parties in the coming State campaign. When approached on the subject to-day, chairman Hensel, of the Democratic State Committee, said: "The Democratic party doesn't propose to make partisan capital out of the eff oils of honest men of all parties to secure administrative reform. \V hat ever Mr. PattisoiPs office has contribut ed to tho almshouse exposure has Ik>ou strictly in the line of his uninterrupted efforts to secure honest government in every department of the city. From the outset of his career—and it has been watched by tho people of the whole State, lie has been aggressively earnest in his purpose that Philadel phia should get value received for every dollar expended. He has detcimined that the tax-eaters r, hall not rob the tax-payers, and I believe everybody ac knowledges that to his administration the 6access of tho reform movement is largely due. Tho exposure of Phipps* villiauy will direct attention to the fact that the same system of plunder ing lias been going on for years at Ilarrisburg. I have investigated this subject from time to time, and I am well satisfied that by collusion between tbe officials of State Capital Hill and the contractors for supplies there has been extensive plunder of tho State Treasury. I know a contractor who was caught some years ago delivering pounds of coal to the ton to one of the departments. In stationary sup plies there have been gross frauds. The "Legislative Record" publication has liecn accompanied with jobbery and ir regularity. The list of supplies furnish ed to the departments is prima facie ev idence that there are immense perquisi tes for hangers-on around the hill. The prices paid for some of them arc enor mous, and the character of them indi cates that private houses are furnished and storerooms and cellars tilled out of the state's put chases. The people are asking why the state should buy bay rum and shaving mugs for Senators, and new cuspadores, chairs, sofas, cur tains and carpets every year. The large contingent funds cover a multitude of sins. Brooms, buckets, etc., are fur nished in quantities sufficient to clean all the legislative halls m the country. Pasters and folders are employed in numbeis three times as'great as neces sary, and paid six dol'ars a day for the work that they can employ a sub to do for six dollars a week. Four tons of soap, Odd brooms, and as many more scrub brushes, 360 pails and 300 dust, brushes, besides ISO feather dusters- — for 10 dozen of which $39.50 a dozen are paid—not to speak of window brushes, long and short, sweeping brushes and chamois skin, ought to keep things from ever falling into dirt and decay around the departments and legislative halls. But why should the State buy blacking and shoe brushes, clothes brushes and hair brushes—at $31.60 per doz n - nail brushes and hair tonics, shaving mugs—sl3.4s per doz en—for State officials V The people want to know. They are going to flud out.l cr.o go on with column catalogue ootids sort of pilfering at llarrisburg.lt is stealing, and tho people know it, and they see that tho very rascals who hare been ia it and are living off it are Bea ver's most ardent supporters. There is a feeling that Pattisoa is the man to stop this thing. Newspaper artilb ry and the declamation of reformers have proved unavailing. Even well-disposed legislators do not seem to be proof a gainst the temptations which are offer ed them when the ring provides all these creature comforts for them. What is needed is an exocut ive of iron will, honesty of purpose, and Inflexible courage, to clean house at Ilarrisburg. The almshouse exposures will have a great effect over the State in direct ing attention to Fattison as the fittest roan to prosecute similar investigations at the State Capital. Some People Who Have Got to Go. From the Greonslmur I>at!y, Ind. The hand of public thieves who have been plundering the people with impu nity for the past twenty years and who have been upheld, protected and shield ed from merited punishment by cor rupt Pardon Boards and equally cor rupt State Executives mii3t be over thrown and the reins of government handed over to honest and capable men who are idontitied with its interests and who have the welfare of the peo ple at heart. The political thieves who have pilfering the coffers of the State for a score of years should have a "rest," and the hope is that it may be for all time to come. What Cameron May Do. From the Myers dale Courier. Cameron is fighting for his political existence, His own political existence not Reaver's. He i 3 too astute to en danger his own security for any man on the ticket. The Stalwart rank and tile are well drilled and will implicitly obey their masters, the bosses. When the order is given two or three days before the election to tomahawk Beaver and save certain Sen atonal districts it will bo implicitly obeyed. Perhaps this as much a3 anything els-3 accounts for Beaver's sudden glumuess. <-o — No Dodging the Issue. From the Crawford Journal, Itei>. General Cameron can depend upon one thing—-neither the tariff bugbear nor the copperhead dodge will deter the Independent Republicans from tak his son Don's political scalp in the next affray. THE Republicans of Huntingdon county will probably have two tick ets. —■ THE Easton Free Press thinks Stewart will get 4000 votes in Lan caster countv. FRIGHTFUL FIGURES. Tho Itocord of n Profligate Con gress. From the New York Sun. It is well to have tho exact figures for the vpproprUtions made at. the tirst session of this profligate congress, so that they cannot be successfully disput ed. To he entirely on the safe side and to prevent controversy hereafter, we will take the statement made by Mr. Allison, chairman of appiepilations in the senate, rather than our own sum mary, even when both rest on the same data. After making a comparison be tween all the bills of I Sfii with those of ÜB2, Mr. Allison sums up in those words: "Net increase of appropi iations for 1883 over 1 >B9, $77,532,621.31. lie declares his party guiltv of wild ex travagance, while lie attempts to ex euse these unprecedented grants of the public money for questionable objects. No lame explanation, no weak in vention, will satisfy tho people who have been yictimiz d by a plundering congress. From the lir.st hour to the last, one supreme purpose dominated the councils of the republican party, led by Seeor Robeson in the bouse of representatives. That was to get the most money out of the treasury, with out regard to the nature of the appro priation. The democrats carried the house of representatives in the tidal wave of I s 7 lby a majority of seventy, ousting a republican majority of one hundred. That, revolution was mainly caused by the excesses of (1 rant ism. Tin-people rose up and rebuked the corruption of Giant's tirst teim. They compelled the Washington ring, the whiskey ring, the Indian ling, the postal ring, the army ling, tho navy ring, the land ring, and the other organized rings to suspend operations. Tlty broke up much of the stealing that had been common in all the departments, and they foiced the republicans to abandon venal practices that had disgraced the administration. Tlie democrats 3ame in pledged tu retrench aud it form, and they kept faith with all their obligations. The record of the Foe.rty-fourth congress is an honortu le witness t f the fidelity and |of the with which every pledge ; was redeemed. They reduced llie sip -1 propii.tlious many millions the fijst i year, against the bitter opposition of a ; republican senate, and against the false cry that the reduction would crip ple t be public service. That good work was contiuued, through perhaps with less vigor than should have been exhib ited. During the six years of demo cratic ascendancy in the house, jobbeiy found no favor, and the lobby became impecunious. The old brokers in leg islation withdrew from active business and gave up Washing ton a& their head- I quarters. The rules with which the | democrats began their caieer shut the lobbyists out and excluded the multi tude of "riders" that were mounted on appropriation bills prior to their advent of power. The republicans obtained a narrow majority in the present house, which they have augmented by c edition with the gßonbackors, and by turning out six democrats who were fairly elected. The transition from one party to the other revived instantly the scenes, the methods and the lobby that were famil iar before the tidal wave of 1>74. This session of congress has brought together the jobbers, the traders, the thieves and the speculators, who were accustomed to flourish and to dictate legislation under republican rule. The election of Keifer, and the leadership of Si-cor 3tbeson, announced to the country that prodigality was to be the law, and that corruption was to be the practice of this congress. The result shows that the announcement was true. At the end of eight months this con gress disperses, leaving the foluest re coid in our leg islative history, surpass ing the worst days of Giantism in reck less expenditure, and defying public opinion by outrages that are likely to leceivc condign punisment at the ballot box. Heedless of the lesson of 1874, the republican leaders have exceeded their own worst extravagance and neg lected the duties which the people demanded at their bands. Senator Allison's reluctant confession of seventy-eight milliois excess over tl e last appropriation will stand in judg ment against them at the fall election. HEN AY MoKinney, of Great Bend Pa., announces himself a?' an inde pentcnt candidate for Governor. His platform is "weekly wages to employes in current funds without rebate and all other reforms for la bor according to the dictum of the Bible not to oppress the laborer in withholding his hire." WIIEN Bobby Pattison is Govern or of Pennsylvania, as of course lie will be, he will make the fur fly a lnong the bosses, machine men and corruptionists that now infest every 1 department of our stato government. That's what ho will. THE Harrisburg Pal riot calls atten tion to the fact that, with all his speech-making, "General Beaver has yet to make the firjt promise of reform in the civil service or cxpendituses of the Jstate government." THE election in Vermont resulted in favor of the Republicans as eve rybody expected, 'out the usual ma- j jority is much reduced, ! Maiioke went tip like a rocket and is coming down like a stick. Every thing points to a speedy termination of lib rule. His party is dividing against him and deserters are numerous. Since the debt question is no longer one of politics the Virginia frioboottr baa shown himself in Ids true light. His only excuse for cracking the whip oyer the voters is to secure what spoils he can for himself and his henchmen. His party la entirely one of spoils, and it cannot stand for any length of time on a platform of that nut me. It is almost certain that the State will t>e against him this fall at.d His contract to deliv er Fcven or eight lb-adjuster Congress men over to the administration cannot bo cur Had cut. la st v ral of the dis tricts where lie has been strong there are three tickets in the fh-M, and it is not likely that he can cany mote than one or two of them, l'ho days of l>os rule in Virginia are numbered.— 'J\nus. -t •<>— - The follmviii'/ pen picture of President A yihur a cabinet we clip from a radical stalwart paper, ac cording to which the constitutional ad v her of our pruct ical politics Pres ident are not particularly distin guished cither for ability or vir tue; According to Dame Rumor Messrs.
