NEXT comes the Democratic State
Convention at Allentown on the 30th
instant, and we don't tbink there will
be quite so much machine work as
prevailed at the late Re
publi ci an convention. The
only thing that can reasonably be
counted on beforehand is the hearty
endorsement of Cleveland's adminis
tration by Pennsylvania's democracy
and strong expressions in favor of bis
presidential candidacy in 1888.
THE. tabular statement of the actual
loss of revenues which the several
counties in this state must suffer
through the failure of the new revenue
bill, and which appears elsewhere,
gives the voters a clear idea how much
harm Republican intriguers can actu
ally do to the taxpayers of Pennsyl
vania. It is an item every voter
should read for his own satisfaction
and for future guidance. Centre coun
ty appears in the column of losers
with S7OOO.
THE Tory Cabinet of England is
putting full pressure upon Ireland un
der the new coercion act and the mat
er of personal or social freedom is out
of the question with these tyrants of
the nineteenth century. The follow
ing proclamation which has lately
been issued is evidently to show poor
Ireland that she is to be trodden under
toot in a merciless manner and that
she is further from home rule than
ever :
Si*ECl> JL PROCLAMATION. —Whereas, we
are satisfied that there exists in Ireland an
association known by the name of the Irish
National League and that the said associa
tion in parts of Ireland promotes and ex
cites to acts of violence aud intimidation
and interferes with the administration of
the law, now we, the Lord Lieutenant,
General Governor of Ireland, by and with
'the advice of the Privy Council, by virtue
of section of the Criminal Law and Pro
cedure, Ireland act, 1887, and of every
power and authority in this behalf, to do
this, our special proclamation, declare from
the date hereof the said associaton known
as the Irish National League to be danger
ous.
This proclamation shall' be promulgated
• by the same being published in the Dublin
Gazette and by a printed copy thereof being
posted at every police station or barracks
and every place in which divisional police
courts or petty sessions are held respective
ly in Ireland. Given at the Council Cham

paralytic stroke on Monday night

What a pity for Bartlett and Cali

M KHNKSDAY of last week was the
day for the Republican state conven
tion in llarrisburg and the affair canto
off very quietly and in the old regula
tion style. There was a conspicuous
absence of enthusiasm mid it is said
that careful observers noticed u uni
form desire to get through with the
job as quick as jtossiblc. General Ad
jutant Daniel 11. Hastings, of Belle
fonte, was made chairman of the con
vention, ami in a lengthy address
which had for its subject democratic
corruption, Cleveland's poor adminis
tration and a general condemnation of
| anything and everything that has the
democratic cast, displayed consider
able talent at oratory. This introduc
| tioti having been disposed of the con
vention proceeded with its regular
busiuess, the nomination of candi
dates for state treasurer and judge of
the supreme ccurt and the adoption
of a platform. Senator Thompson
nominated Capt. Wm. B. Hart, of
Dauphin, as a candidate for the state
treasurership.and as there were no oth
er names proposed, the nomination
was made uuauimous. Ex-Gen. Au
ditor Niles then nominated Hon. He
nry W. Williams, of Tioga county, for
judge of the supreme court, with two
other candidates to make the thing
more interesting. Williams received
US, aud Mitchell ot> votes. Williams'
nomination was made unanimous and
the ticket of the bosses was solid.
The platform which was then pre
sented to the convention says that
the republican party again declares it
sclt iu favor of submitting the prohibi
tion amendment to the vote of the
people, aud also recommends the a
j meudmcnt which does away with the
poll tax. It favors a high tariff, in
creased pensions for the veterans of
the late war, so as to get rid of the
surplus iu the treasury, and fully en
dorses tie action of the last legislature
in regard to the new revenue laws aud
high license bill. It praises the pres
ent state administration and condemns
the democratic national administra
tion, and winds up with a resolution
to pledge the full support of the re
publican party in Pennsylvania to
James G. Blaine for president in
ISSS. '

(From our regular correspondent.)
WASHINGTON, Aug. 22, 1887.
Civil Service Comiuisaiouer Edgerton'n
reply to the strictures of Mr. Geo. Wm.
Curtis, on the civil service system is all that
the true friends of reform have a right to
expee, showing, as it does that President
Cleveland and the Democratic party have
redeemed their pledges in that regard, at
least to the full letter of the civil-service
act. It is frankly admitted that more
Democrats than Republicans aro apjioiiited
because Republican politicians have fos
tered the false idea that members of that
party had no chance, thus, deterring many
from an examination, while on the other
hand. Democrats had nothing to discourage
their aspirations. Mr. Edgerton asserts
most positively that the politieial opinion
of the candidates for places are not known
in any case, and that all the names of those
who JKISS an exemination are ratsl in the
order of merit 011 the list of eligibles. The
Democrats who have criticised the Admin
istration for failing to "turn the rascals
out," fast enough, should certainly find
some comfort in studying the returns of
decapitations as made by the Post Office
Department for the past tliree years, which,
as Horace Groely would say, will Is
"mighty interesting reading." During the
last fiscal year 3,048 officers were estab
lisliod: discontinued 1,500 : ap|K>int
meuts on resignations and ommissions ex
pired, 5, KI3; npjioiiituientsou removals and
susjH'iisions, 2,564: ap|ointnieiits 011 change
of names and sites. 482 : appointments 011
deaths of postnuistcrs, ,589 ; total nuuit>er
of ap|K)intmuts of |sistm:isters of all grades
during the year, 13,079 : for the years 188.5
and 1886, 22, 747 and 9,547 resjHH'tively
making a total of 46, 373 for the three years
of Democratic Administration, which 1
think is a pretty fair showing from a purely
partisan standpoint. Your correspondent
iielieves that the ttoys iu the trenches
should til! the offices
The great ami go>d work of reclaiming
public lands from the grasping and greedy
railroad corjKiratiotis, who have forfeited
their chartered rights, still g.n-s on keeping
step to the music of reform and the rights
of the people. The most important decision
of this kind given in years was rendered by
the Secretary of the Interior a few days
since, revoking the order of his Republican
prenecessor, which withdrew from settle
ment the Pre-emption and Homestead laws,
the lands conditionally granted by Congress
to the Atlantic and Pacific Railroad Com
pany—amounting to twenvy-live or thirty
million acres of land, in tliis case alone :
the order applies to several other railroads
as well and it is at present iiniNnwuble to
name the vast number of a-r-s n.l.t.st to
flio public domain. Every honest western
settler will now be moved to toss his hat
and hands and enthusiastically "hooray "for
Lamar, who thus courageously pesfornis a
great public duty that enshrines his name
among the godsof their humble households.
The death of Professor Spencer F. Itaird.
Secretary of Smithsonian Institution, and
Comiuisssoner of Fish and Fisheries, is one
of the greatest calamities that cohld befall
the world of science. He devoted a long
and useful life to scientific researches and
literary lal>ors. and his works 011 Natural
History and science, entitle him to rank
with Audubon and Agassi/., with Itoth of
whom he has been associated in their favor
ite fields of endeavor. Professor Raird was
truly a tienefactor of his race, for to him the
jieople o: the United States are chiefly in
debted for the upbuilding of the Fish
Commission, the propagation of tisli in all
their waters,aud the consequent cheapening
of that excellent article of food.
The people of the District of Columbia
are still groaning under their burden of
burden of debt and protesting against their
forms of government—given tliem by the
Republicans which is taxation without
representation. They are carrying a debt
of more than ?21,000,000 —coumiuing a
million and a quarter annually in interest
and sinking fund, aud the District of
Columbia would have lieen bankrupt long
since,br.f for the fact that the United States
liears half the expenses of the government.
One public meeting after another is lieing
held, and it" agitation will accomplish any
thing relief from existing evils may be luul
of tlie next Congress.
—Dyspepsia makes the lives of many
people miserable, and often leads to
self-destruction. We know of no rem
edy for dyspepsia more successful than
Hood's Sarsaparilla. It acts gently,
yet surely and Gliciently, tones the
stomach and other organs, removes the
faint feeling, creates a good appetite,
cures headache, and refreshes the bur

a fair trial. It will do you good.

Dec. 11. 1879. j
F. J. Cheney & Co.,Toledo,O.—Dear
Sirs: About three months ago, notic
ing a letter addressed to you in the liee
from Gen. Slevin, in reference to the
cure of his son by the use of Hall's Ca
tarrh Cure, we were induced to com
mence the use of it for our daughter
Nellie, now fourteen years old,who has
been suffering from catarrh for about
eight years, during which time she has
been treated hv one of the best physic
ians in the city. We have also tried
the use of almost all the known reme
dies for catarrh, with no more success
than temporary relief. Many nights
have we laid awake to hold her month
open to keep her from strangling. Her
hearing had also become affected. We
were afraid that she would never recov
er. We have now used six bottles of
HALL'S CATAURU CURE and we be
lieve Nellie to be entirely cured. In a
few days after commencing the use of
it we noticed a decided change for the
better, and from that right along she
has improved, until now she breathes
as easily as any one. She sleeps well
and her hearing is perfectly good.
We feel that the disease is entirely re
moved. Wo write this unsolicited let
ter, feeling that it is due you, and with
the hope that others may be benefitted
in a like manner. We can hardly real
ize that such a change could bo effected
in so short a time after battling with
the disease so long. We are still using
tlie remedy at intervals, as it seems to
build up her system. You are at lib
erty to use this in any manner you see
proper. We are yours, truly,

INDIANOPLIS, August'Jtj.—The finan

there are no resourses that cm bo
drawn upon before next December. In
the tn ehnt ime S2oti,o<o will be
needed to pay the current expenses of
the State government and public insti
tutions. Treasurer Lemike announces
that he will call upon the counties to
advance funds, b u t if they do so
it will be voluntary, as the law
does not require them to such calls
when they owe nothing. One effect of
exhaustation of the Treasury wilt be
the suspension of work upon all State
institutions, of which several are now
in course of erection.
Newspaper Duns
We presume that some people think
newspai>er men are persistent duns :
let a farmer place himself in a similar
position and see if ho would not do
the same. Suppose that he raises one
thousand bushels of corn and his neigh
bor should come and buy a bushel and
the price was only the small sum of
one dollar, or less, and the neighbor
says : "I will pay you the amount in a
few days. 1 ' As the farmer does not
want to be small about the matter he
says, "All right." Another comes in
the same way until the whole one
thousand bushels are trusted to one
thousaud different persons and not ore
of the purchasers concerns himself
about it for it is a small amount they
owe the farmer, and of course that will
not help him any. lie does not realize
that the farmer has frittered away his
large crops of corn, aud that its value
is due a thousand little driblets, and
that he is seriously embarrassed in his
business because his debtors treat it as
a little matter.
A During Feat.
Ni AO Ait A FALLS, Aug. 10.—Ten
thousand people came here on Monday
afternoon to witness 'Alphenso King,
the water walking Frenchman, ride
his water bicycle across the river.
At twenty seven minutes to five o'-
clock King mounted his water bicycle,
which turned out to be quite a wonder
ful machine. All the elements of the
land wheel were present, only that the
big wheel had water paddles attached
to its tire, and was kept on the sm face
by two torpedo shaped floats of sheet
iron. King wore a dress suit and silk
hat, his only protection from the .wayes
being lubber leggings.
Superintendent Welch would not al
low the start to be made from the les
ervation dock, so the bicycle wan
towed to a point on tiie American
bank.flhectly under the new suspension
bridge. King pulleduntil he struck the
down current and then took a diagonal
course. The bicycle rolled considerable
when the up current was readied and
it looked as If he must upset. The
floats weathered the treacherous cur
rents and eddies beautifully, and in
four and a half minutes the tired
Frenchman landed 011 the Canadian
bank. He was greeted by cheers from
the bridge and both banks of the river.
He was taken into the boat and was
found not to haye even wet iiis cloth
ing. King proposes to ride his wheel
on New York harbor from the statue
of Liberty to the Brooklyn bridge,
A Steamship Destroyed ly Fire In
Ntld Ocean.
NKW YORK, Aug. 1 .—The steamer
York City, of Baltimore, bound for
Loudon, put into Qeeitstown this
morning, and when off the head of
Kinssle signalled that the Inman line
steamer City of Monlteal, which left
New Voik on Saturday, August f, had
been bound at cci, and that (lie crew
and passengers would be landed at tlia
Queenstown wharf from Ihe York
City.
Later a dispatch was received at the
nut it lino exchange stating tliut II
lives woiu lost.
The cause of the liie whichdestroyed
the vessel is of corn so a matter of
speculation at this lime, but It is al
most a certainty that there was a
frightful panic on board the steamer.
If ihefatality occurred atnight.the wo. -
der is that BO few lives have Ixen lost.
The reason tor believing that a flight
fill panic occurred lies in the I act (hat
the majority of the passengers was
composed of ignorant lVlcs and Hun
garians. Several of ilium were women.
There was no cabin passengers. Those
in the steerage numbered 113, and in
the intermediate cabin 23.
There was a well lmined crew on
boa d the y* ssel, and their undoubt d
good sea manship, under the direction
of the ofllcers,undoubtedly aided much
in keeping the loss of life to the ligute
it is reported to be.
The destruction of the steamer oc
curred on the 11th inst., live days after
she left New York.
A boat containing six passengers and
seven members of the crew is missing.
The occupants of this bo.>t are the thi -
teeu persons reported to have perished.
A Brave Young 4itrl Was Acci

a Revolver from Her Father.
l'retty seventeen-year-old Mary Gal
lagher, of VViiglitsy Die, Camden coun

hand last Satuiday afternoon by the
accidental discharge of a revolver,
which she was tiying to take away
from her father. Mary had just re
lumed ftom Sunday School, and as she
entered the front yard of her home,
she heard lire voice of her father
in violent altetcat ion with a neighbor
named David Thorpe. She hurried
through the house into the back yard,
and there saw her father excitedly
brandishing a tevolver in neighbor
Thorpe's face, atul threatening to shtot
him.
The young gitl begged her angry
father to put away the weapon uud be
sought the neighbor to leave the
