' IT seems evident tlut the contest
• ib: President in the Republican par
tv AVill narrow down to two men—
Aithur and Blaine. Edmunds does
not want it, Conkling is hardly men
tioned, Sherman would ever so much
like to ha veil, and so would Logan,
but neither can get it, and so the a
vailabie timber will be reduced to
Arthur and Blaine, as matters now
appear, with the chances slightly in
iavor of Blaine.
THE appointment of Judge Hoy
was unanimously confirmed by t e
senate the other Tuesday. This
is highly complimentary to die new
Judge.
THE Sunbury Democrat hoists
the names of Samuel J. Tilden and
Thomas A. Hendricks for President
and Vice President.
BEN. SUTLER says he will again
be a candidate for Governor of
Massachusetts next year. Benja
min is plucky.
|
PHILADELPHIA wants the next Re
publican National Gonvemion. She
is welcome to it.
PRESIDENT ARTHUR is a candidate
for re-election and will make a deter
mined fight for the lepnblican nomina
tion. He ex pects to run on a sectional
platform and his friends are attempt
ing to revive the old cry against the
south. Tilt bread-and-butter brigade
have received orders to capture the re
publican primaries with a yiew of send
ing Arthur delegates to the national
convention and it is more than likely
that every southern state and many
northern states that are under the con
trol of the federal office-holders will
suid delegations favorable to Arthur.
Even Pennsylvania will fall into line if
she is needed.
THE contest for Speaker of the
House at Washington promises to be
come quite lively. 1 There are four can
didates in the field, Springer, Cox, Car
) sle ard Randall-—the latter of course
the strongest as he ought to be. In
point of ability Mr. Randall is second
to none of the candidates, while his
large experitnee, incorruptible integri
ty and thorough fairness as a presiding
officer give him additional prestige.
He is a good and safe man throughout
—exactly the kind of Speaker needed
to preside over a Democratic Congress
at this important crisis. A special to
the Patriot of Monday gives Mr. Ran
dall's bearing and feelings in the con
test thus :
Mr. Randall looks serene and feels
confident. He has gone over the
ground carefully,beginning even before
the election, and knows more about
the feelings and inclinations of the
members than any man living. He be
lieves that he will win more easily than
in any previous contest. In fact,he re
gards the battle as already fought and
won. He has not been injured by the
November elections. On the contrary,
they have shown the greater neecessity
for a steady and skillful hand at the
helm. He has with him the great con<
ver*ative heart of the democratic patty.
There is a general feeling that, as Sam
uel J. Tilden a few days ago expressed
it to an Ohio congressman, the way to
get a democratic president is to elec
Mr. Randall speaker.
THE Morm in lobby, headed by ex
.Dclegate Causoujiave settled in Wash
ington for the winter. They have
plenty of money and will-spend it free*
ly to prevent legislation hostile to the
Church.
A Campaign Can&rd.
'"mm tliO New York World.
Mr. D<zetuiorf, the republican c<m-
from Virginia, who fought
Mahoue and his methods, now conies
forward. Speaking of the attempt, to
manufacture bloody-shirt buncombe
out of the Phnville affiir, he says :
No baser slander was ever ntten d a
gainst any people. It. was a peaceful
and fair election. The Danville riot
was the legitimate outgrowth of Ma
hone's methods and natural result of
the inflammatory speech made by his
man Sims tlie night before the disturb
ance. That this single occurrence
should he used as a text froiu which to
preach that the shot-gun policy has
been inaugurated in Virginia for the
purpose of li iog the northern heart is
an unwarranted misrepresentation of
facts and a wicked resort of base
minds, and whoever does it I regard as
an enemy of hisconntrv.
This is from go al authoiity and pret
ty much to the point. Possibly the
•great northern editors who tired oft
their revolutionary implements will find
that they placed themselves at the
wrong end of the gun.
SENATOR llAlums, of Tennessee
would like to have the D mocratic nom
ination for Vice President,hut the Mem
phis Ai\P(inc/m,tli6 foremost Democrat
ic organ of the State, tells him that his
advocacy of repudatiou last year run ed
his piospects.
Miscellaneous.
Mrs. Elizabeth'Hauer, of Abbotts
town, Adauis county, was 100 years old
last August, and is still hale and
hearty.
Andrew J. Koser, of near Middle
town, Adams county, has gathered 1,-
400 bushels of winter apples and 100
bushels of cider apples of! his orchard.
He gathered 1,109 bushels off 85 York
Imperial trees and 21 bushels from one
tree.
To spend tiie long evenings in read
ing useful books and storing the mind
with knowledge is to lay up a capita'
tint will return a heavy interest in thp
future. To waste the precious hours of
youth in dissipation is to prepare for au
iguoble and obscure and a worthless
manhood. The young man who has the
wisdom to forecast the future and who
realizes that the present is only valuable
as it is utilized in judicious preparation
for the coming years , will not find any
difficulty in making a choice, between
these two methods of spending one's
time. What a pity it is so few young
people ever think ot the future.—E.c,
The November Stoim.
The storm lust week raged fearfully
along ournoitiie inlukesand iuCanada.
Many vessels were beached, upset or
otherwise d umagtd. In Cleveland a
watchman climbing an outside stairway
was blowu down and had his back
broken. lie died from the effects. In
Canada the storm was still moie severe.
Dispatches inform us that at "Hastings
the spire of the Roman Catholic church
was damaged. Saw mills were unroof
ed and fences blown down. Chimneys,
fences and houses were blown down iu
all parts. The wind was accompanied
by lightning, thunder and a fearful
down-pour of hail. When the gale
struck the Metropolitan Hall, in which
the Salvation Army meeting was being
held,a rattling of the scenery caused by
the wind created a panic. Three wo
men fainted and a rush was made for
the stairs, down which a great many
people tumbled in their haste. Fortu
nately, no one was seriously hurt."
The worst, most disastrous and dis
tressing feature of this storm was the
partial destruction of Shenandoah City
in Schuylkill county, by which about
$1,500,000 worth of property was de
stroyed and several thousand of the
poorest laboring people made homeless.
UNEQUAL BURDENS.
The Big Incomes and Small Tax
Levies of Money Kings.
From the New York World.
William IJ. Yanderbilt is supposed
to be worth $200,000,000. A man sat
isfied to realize 6 per cent, on hi 3 capi
tal vould receive from this an income
of $12,000,000 yearly. But Mr. Yan
derbilt is a speculator and would not be
satisfied with any such amount. He
would not be of "the breed" if he
would content himself with fi per cent,
lie paid, according to the official list, a
tax of $48,500.
William K. Vanderbilt is "one of
the breed," and, according to his fath
er's account,he has in six years increas
ed his capital of $5,000,000 to $11,000,-
000 by successful stock gambling.
William K. Yanderbilt paid a tax of
$7,870.
Jay Gould's reputation for wealth is
of the Monte Cristo character. Single
speculations are supposed to net him
millions of profit. He swallows rail
roads and telegraph Ijnes with the fa
cility of an anaconda, and makes his
stock grow like flowers by watering.
He paid a tax of s2l,soo—less than he
would take the trouble to realize "on a
turn."
Cyrus W. Field, whose profit on the
elevated roads alone is counted up to
eight or ten millions, paid a tax of $9,-
800. Mr. De Navarro paid $4*.500. D.
O. Mills, the California Croesus, paid
$22,150. Russell Sage, who mount 3 up
into the $30,000,000 list, paid $15,400.
Charles J. Osborne throws $2,400 to
the tax collector. James Keene paid
$2,3t-o—about as much as he would cx
peiui on a dinner for a party of friends
—into the tax receiver's hand. Henry
\ illard, * ho spends $2:*,0,000 on a junk
eti 'g party,contributed $3,5 >0 towards
the public burdens.
What a farce all this is 1 At the
same time what an outrage it isthit,
while the middle classes pay taxes on
all they consume, these millionaires
should escape their proper sh are of the
public burdens.
Webster'B Mistake.
Daniel Webster had a bad memory in
money matters whether it was a case
of money owed by him or money ow
ed to him. lie iiandled thousands of
dollars, but often never looked at the
amounts paid to him, and in a few sec
onds would 'forget where lie 1 placed the
money he had received. Probably
there is some tonndatiou for the story
that he gave a troublesome beggar a
"hundred-dollar bill to get rid of him,
taking it out of his vest-p >cket in min
gled absent-mindedness and vexation.
Another anecdote tills how awkwardly
his had memory caught him once: The
iate J. T. Fields us-u to relate in the
most graphic manner the particulars of
his first iutevievv with the god-like Dan
iel. Mr. Fields was at the date of the
interview a lad fresh from the country,
serving as junior clerk in the hook-store
of which he afterwards Irecame the head.
Iteing the junior clerk, lie was dispatch
jed upon tlie most difficult and hopeless
' errands which the business of the store
afforded,namely ,to collect a long-stand
ing and ever-growing bill against Dan
iel Webster. Everyone else in the store
had tried and failed. It was now the
turn of the new hand.
Mr. Fields went into Mr. Webster's
office, made his most polite bow, and
handing the bill, said, iu his politest
tone:
"Thefiim presents their compliments
to you, Mr. Webster,and begs to remind
yon that their account has been run
ning for a good many years, "find tliev
would be extremely obliged to you if
you could settle it this morning.
4 Young man,'' said Webster,'' how
can a man pay a bill who has no mon
ey? Look here, see'for yourself."
Saying this he opened his desk, and
lo! there lay ahenpof bank-notes,which
he had received some time before and
had totally forgotten.
4 T beg your pardon, young man: I
have some money. I was not aware of
it. llclp yourself."
The young man Counted out the motl
ey, signed the receipt and went hack to
the store with the light of victory in
his eyes,
