Gov. ALEXANDER IF. STEPHENS
died at liis home. •Atlanta, Georgia,
u little aftei 3 o'clock on Sunday
morning the 4th inst. [lis end was
not trnoxpected as lie had been very
, frail these many years. The re
mains lay in state at the executive
mansion and were viewed on Sun
day by some 20,000 people. Funer
al fn Wednesday or Thursday.
Next week the JOURNAL will give
a brief sketch of the life of the great
statesman.
The Forty-Seventh Congress ad- j
journed by constitutional limitation
on Sunday the 4th inst., at 12 o'clock,
M. Senator Davis had resigned his
otficc as President of the Senate the
day before and Senator Edmunds
was elected President. The usual
boisterous scenes of the "last day"
were again enacted in full variety
and detail,in the House.
Per haps no preceeding congress
ever did less actual work than the
one just adjourned. A tax and tar
iff bill passed by tho Senate a few
days ago was forced through the
House on the last day under au ar
bitrary rule without any cliancc fcr
deliberation or debate. Such hasty
and ill-considered legislation is the
more inexcusable because congress
had ample time to consider and ma
ture a bill that would meet tne
wants ar.d wishes of the varied in
terests of the country. As to the
merits of the new law the opinions of
the press are much divided. Time
must settle that question.
LAST .Friday while Col. A. K.
MeClure, the editor of the Philadel
phia Times , was at Harrisburg on a
short business visit he was arrested
at the instance of a certain Capt.
John Gallagher to answer a charge
of criminal libel. The great editor
has had lots of such suits with fel
lows who are on the hunt for char
acter but he invariably come 3 out
first best. Such* diversions seem to
amuse Col. McClure, rather than
otherwise,
The Democratic State Committee has
named the first Weduesday in August
as the time and Harrisburg as the place
for holding the Democratic State Con
vention of thi3 year. Candidates for
Auditor General and State Treasurer
are to be nominated.
The York Age sees with satisfaction
that public sentiment i* in favor of the
whipping-pest for wife beaters. In all
important questions public opinion is I
always light. I
Another Governor's Message-
GO WAN'S 'CHARGES.
<ovcrnor'l*i%tt !* labors for rcfortu
lii|; old abuses.
Governor I'.iUisoii on the Ist, Inst., sent the
following message to the legislature:
It Is lias been imbll'-ly assorted by Mt\ F. F.
Gowen, a reputable and responsible eitt/en, In
the lull of the house ol represetttotlves, that
one E. G. Patterson, a person employed by tbe
state in an action to recover certain taxes
claimed by the auditor general to be duo by
the Standard Oil Company t> the eomn on
wealth, was paid by the oUlcers of said corpora
tion to suppress the testimony he had collected,
and the state thereby was prevented from ob
taining its Just dues. These charges, a* made
by Mr. Gowcn, arc sub'tantialv as follow ♦ : "In
n sr.it by th.s great commonwealth against the
Standard Oil Companytfer the collection of
taxes wh eh it refused to pay, he had been em
ployed by the commonwealth to collect testi
mony. He admitted under oath that the Stand
ard Oil Company paid him $7,500 to suppress
testimony. lam prepared to furnish the lestl
many, ami I make this charge openly and pub
licly before the legislature iC the common
wealth.
TIIOUKII I huv> had serious doubt* AN to tbe
propriety of an official recognition of such accu
sations, I have come to the conclusion, after a
careful survey of the subject, that the matter
in .tlie present instance is of sufficient (gravity
to warrant my laying before you the facts I
have been able to ascertain, I herewith submit
to you the following papers : A paper purpoit-
Ing to be a contract between salil Patterson and
the state through the auditor general.secretary
of internal affairs and the attorney general, by
which the said Patterson was employed to pro
cure testimony on the suit against the Stundaru
oil company ; also fourhor.ers from the then
attorney general to said Patterson ; a letter
from the auditor general upon the same subject,
and a copy of certain testimony said to have
been given by Patterson in a subsequent suit
by him against the Tide Water pipe lines. It
will IK* seen by these papers that Patterson was
employed by the state -.and that he subsequent,
ly was employed by the Standard Oil Company,
at large p.dtit. Without expressing any opin
ion upon the subject, I deem it my duty to lay
before the legislature the facts I have been able
to ascertain by a eal I upon the departments. 1
also suggest that a committee of investigation
be appoint* d by your bodies,with power to'send
for persons and pa pers, in order that the truth
of the assertions made may le determined, au.t
that the state may be vindicated In its efforts to
compel copora' ions to be o bod lent to the law.
If injustice has been done cither by the com
nionwealth or any individual, it Is of the first
importance that the fact be ascertained and tho
guilty punished.and Hie state enabled to obtain
her legal and just dees.
I also suggest, while upon tills subject, the
propriety of the legislature eon id-ring w bother
it might not be well to repeal the law giving to
the auditor general and attorney general the
authority t*> employ frit ate attorneys to col
lect claims du*<he state at a compensation to
be paid by said ofti :us. The law upon thi* sub
ject was passed April IT. 1561, ar.d is as fol
lows :
"TlJit whenever. In tho opinion of lite audi
tor general and attorney general, the Interests
of the common wealth require it, they, or either
ofttiiem., shall have the powor to employ the ser
v ices of resident attorneys, to avdst in the pros
ecution and trial of eases aud the presentation
| of clal-ns.for which serviee such reasonablecotn.
| pensatum. as the circumstances will justify, or
| as may have been ag reed upon, shall le allowed
by the auditor general.* 1
Su.! methods as thai here authorized, are of
questionable propriety, and are open to much
abus". In the present case, w hicli calls lor this
message, Fait *rson might. If successful, h> v e
been paid s2h,ooo— a sum much greater than
the compensation of the attoi ey general, with
in the line ol whose duties such mutters are, or
of any other officer of the commonwealth.
The whole system Is one that ought to receive
your careful consideration, with a view to its
repeal or, ii possible, its reformation. It seems
to me that the attorney general could collect all
I such claims without other remuneration than
that now allowed him by law.

FINALE.
The fight l>ettveem the Jle)torter iw.d
JOURNAL willcenKe with the present
number as fur us the 1 itler is concern-
I ed. Having suivl all we hud intended
to say from the beginning it would bo
utterly fruitless, even foolish, to pur
sue the matter farther. Mr. Kurtz nad
the filst word and the JOURNAL IS con
tent to give him the lust. We aie en
tirely satisfied with tlie ivsalt, both
j present and prospective. Both of us are
| well known in this community and the
| people will estimate us and our respect -
: ive papers more accurately than we can
do it ourselves. We rest our case with
the public and will not again be easily
provoked to reply to anything the Re
porter may say of us and the JOUR
NAL.
I Touching tlie'pious advice which Mr.
Kurtz gave us last week we most re
spectfully decline to accommodate him,
however ranch we may be in his way.
Perhaps he can find some low, unprin
cipled fellow, without traveling >ery
/ur, that actually did betray his boast
ed principles and party for a cash con
sideration of s3oo—more than Mr. J.
Iscai iot received—who could with more
propriety take his Jiiiul suggestion into
affirmative consideration than the edi
tor of the JOURNAL.
Lastly we make due apology to our
patrons and readers for having been o
bliged for a time to lower tbe usual
chaste and dignified tone of the JOUR
NAL away down toward the coarse and
rude rut in which the "great and good
Reporter" is run. Friends, it shall not
so soon happen again.

Additional Locals.
—Mr. Wm. Wolf, on Mrs. Jobn V.
Forster's farm, had a very good sale
last week. He goes to Stephenson
county, I'linois.
—A man named Prutzman already
saw a snake while crossing Jones
Mountain, Uuijn county. Rather ear
ly for snake stories.
—Our school board is alive to IV
necessity of maintaining a good school
during the summer months and have
appointed Messrs. S. D. Musser and Ja
cob Gepbart a committee to see what
can be done. It is proposed to raise
a select school for Mr. Morrison, the
present excellent teacher of our Gram
mar school, and if the citizens of the
town and vicinity will properly second
tho efforts of our school boaid some
thing can be done to give progress and
permanency to our school work.
—Mr. Henry Long, of Mndisnnburg,
left Willi his family last week, for
Cnnrtland, IVKalb county, Illinois,
and like tlie sensible man lie is, order
ed the JOURNAL to follow.
SETTI.KD.— From the Bellefonte pa
pers we learn that the council of that
town ami our county commissioners
have settled the bridge building ques
tion. Bellefonte builds the til utmeats
and makes the approaches and the
county contributes #1,030 towards the
costs of this part of the woik and also
erects a suitable iron in idifc. The ad
just incut seems to us a fair and equit
able distribution of the expanses and
we feel satisfied that the citizens ol
the county will endorse the action of
their commissioners.

The Dubs Missionary Society of the
Evangelical Sunday Scliot 1 of Millhcim
held its annual meeting and election,
Tuesday evening, Feb. 2711 i ult. The
following afiicers were elected for the
ensuing year: President—D. L. Zer
by ; Vice Presidents —P. U. Musser
and S. M. Cum pel! ; Corresponding Sec
retary—Miss Mary E. Mauck ; Record,
ing Secretary—Miss Ada E. Eisenhutb;
Treasurer—Adolph Miller.
This society WHS organized about a
year ago, as an experiment. The ob
j *ct, as indie ited by the nrme, is to
spread information on the sul jcct of
missions and to raise funds for tie mis
sionary work of the church. The be
ginning was small t*nd feeble, as begin
nings iu every good work im stly are,
the discouragements were not. a few,
tut tho society has overcome them all
and is now a permanent adjunct to the
congregation and school. The member
ship now numbers some ninety and the
future is full of promise. A respecta
ble sum was raised for the conference
missionary tieasury, considering that
a largo portion of t3e numbers are
children who have but little to give.
The society has its regular monthly
meetings, when besides the common
routine work essays and select articles
are read, interspeised with music and
short addresses. These meetings are
generally tvell attended and sometimes
very interesting.
The next meeting will be laid on the
evening of March 19th. The commit
tee on literary exercises have placed the
following persons on duty for the com
ing meeting : Mr. Adolph Miller, Mr.
•S. M. Canape!!, Miss Mary E. Strohm.
All are invite!. ***

A Statue of Luther for Washing-ton.
WASHINGTON, February 2o.—A
number of prominent Lutheran clergy
men of this city, New York city and
Baltimore have issued an appeal to peo
ple of their denomination throughout
the country for funds to erect in Wash
ington a colossal bronze statue of Mar
tin Luther. It is proposed to purchase
for this purpose a duplicate of the fig
ure of the great reformer, which stands
in the centre of the celebruted group at
Worms, and to erect it m front of the
Lutheran Memorial Church, on the
Thomas Circle, between Fourteenth
street and Vermont avenue.
Half a Century in Jail.
William Stanford, known throughout
Fayette county, Pa., as "Crazy Billy,"
died recently in the County Jail, where
ho had been prisoner over fifty-one
consecutive years. In 1331 Billy drove
Alexander Crow and wife out of their
home in Spiing Ilill Township. The
neighbors came to Crow's, rescue and
by strategy overpowered Billy, who was
armed with Crow's gun, butcher-knife
and axe. Billy was sent to jail at Un
iontown for trial. Soon afterwards
William Updegraff was locked up for
drunkenness and during the night Billy
asked a stick of wood if he should kill
Updegraff. The stick said "Yes" and
Billy crushed in the drunkard's skull
The following June Billy was tried and
acquitted of murder on account of in
sanity. For eighteen years lie was
chained by the leg to the floor of his
cell. Since 1813 he has been allowed to
roam at will, being harmless. Eigli-
teeu Sheriffs have gone iu aud out of
office while Hilly was prisoner. Billy
was about eighty years old, and was
hoi n in England, but beyond this noth
ing is known of his earliest history.
Just before dying ho called for his
mother : "Dear mother." This is the
only time he was ever known to refer
in any vay to any one connected with
his childhood.
Give hoys a trade, alul thoy will prop
ably mifke industrious, useful citizens ;
give them simply .n school education,
without seeing that they become pre
pared for, and started in some path of
useful industry, and the probability is
that they will become loafers,and make
an uncertain living through their years
of manhood by practices bordering, at
least, on criminality, Prison statistics
show that but few who have learned
trades become criminals, while simple
school education does not seem to be
a protection against crime. Of 7SO con
victs received in the Eastern Peniten-
all had been at school except I9fc,
but 722 of them had no trade.— Lebanon

THE FmST.COM ET OF THE YEAR
