Deserters Not Entitled To Penslons.
There should be no question about
the impropriety of pensioning deserters,
for in all countries a deserter from the
colors of the army in which he is en-
listed is recognized as not only forfeit-
ing the gratitude of his government,
but as deserving of punishment for his
unfaithfulness. But it seems to have
required a decision of the pension au-
thorities to stop the injustice and dis-
grace of including deserters among
those who are entitled to pensions.
A ruling to this effect has been made
by Assistant Secretary of the Interior
Rev~orLps, which was rendered neces-
sary by an act passed under HAaRrrI-
son's admidistration which, by remov-
ing the disability arising from deser-
tion in certain cases, enabled thous
ands of deserters to get upon the pen-
sion rolls. Such derelicts deserted
from their first service and afterwards
re-enlisted in some other organizations,
and were regnlarly discharged, and in
such cases pensions were allowed
whether the War Department had re-
moved the charge of desertion, or not.
Assistant Secretary REyNoLps holds
that where a claimant for pension had
deserted from his first service and en-
listed in another and different organi-
zation, and where the War Department
refuses to remove the charge of deser-
tion or recognize the legality of the
second service, but holds him to be in
a continuous state of desertion, that
Department has exclusive juriediction,
the correction of its own records, and
the legality of the soldier's service, and
until the charge of desertion is remov-
ed by the War Department the claim-
ant has no pensionable status.
This view of the case seems but just
to all parties in interest, and especial:
ly just toward the soldiers who were al-
ways loyal to their colors. A man who
deserts the service becomes such a des-
picable character that he is not entitled
to any corsideration, nor does he re-
ceive it among soldiers. The ruling of
Asst. Secretary ReyNoLDs is a return
to the old and well settled practice of
the Department in the adjudication of
pension claims, and reverses the deci-
sion of the last Assistant Secretary in
which it was held that a formal dis
charge from the second service termi-
nates the status of desertion, and places
the soldier regardless of the record in
the attitude of an eligible claimant for
invalid pension, independent of the
Act of March 2, 1880, which provides
for the removal of the charge of deser-
tion in such cases where a claimant
shows himself entitled to relief by its
terms. This ruling is important for
another consideration. It is a step in
the direction of making the pension
roll a roll of honor. For this the De-
partment should, and will, receive the
thanks of every soldier who has any
respect for himself or the service.
An Unruly Element.
The coke region of this State is in a
bad way in regard to the lawlessness of
the population engaged in the produc-
tion of its staple commodity. The
Slav workmen have been noted for
their disorderly conduct, and during
the recent strike were particularly law-
less. Some of them are now paying
the penalty of their misdeeds, and oth-
ers are suffering the consequences of it;
but it appears that the negroes who
were imported into the region to take
the place of the Slav strikers are imi-
tating the turbulent conduct of the lat-
ter, having imbibed the pernicious no-
tion that they had come into a region
where law and order were not regarded,
and where might made right.
The newspapers of the region com-
plain about this state of affairs and say
that the same power that protects these
negroes in their right to work should
be strong enough, it properly exercised,
to promptly punish them for any in-
fringements of the rights of others, and
that those charged with the preserva.
tion of the peace and the protection of
society will be seriously derelict in their
duty if they permit any such lawless
ness as recently charged against the
negro cokers, to go unpunished,
The Extent of the Tariff Reduction.
The contest in Congress over the tar-
iff bill was so enveloped by a cloud of
misrepresentation, and so confused by
the clatter of opposing interests and
partisan animosity, that the people
could not have a clear view of what
was being done. A sample of this con-
fusion of the truth was furnished in the
circumstance that while the bill was
actually cutting down the protection of
the Sugar Trust more than one half,
the Republican newspapers were rais-
ing a clamor that was intended to con-
vey the impression that the bill was
drawn in the interest of the Trust. A
general misapprehension was created
in other respects concerning the char-
acter of the bill, leaving the impression
that the cause of tariff reform was be-
ing sacrificed.
Tariff reduction is the object of tar.
iff reform, and that is all that the
Democratic party promised ; and now
since the bill is passed, and its provi-
sions are published in detail, the peo-
ple can see the extent of the reform
that has been accomplished in this re-
spect.
We give below a list of the reduc-
tions of duty on a large variety of arti-
cles, as compared with the extortions
of the McKinLEY tariff. This list, al-
though embracing most of the leading
articles of import, does not include su-
gar, the duty on which is reduced from
a half cent a pound to the fifth of a cent
a pound, cutting off more than half
the bonus given to the Trust by the
McKincey bill; nor does it include
coal, the duty on which is reduced from
75 to 40 cents ; nor steel, upon which
a gimilar reduction has been made.
Look at this list of percent. reduc-
tions of duty, and see whether the
Democratic party has or bas not re-
deemed the pledge it made that it
would cut down McKiNLey’s oppres:

Unavailing Remonstrance.
With very good reason the Demc-
crats of Ohio are not satisfied with the
course of Senator BrRICE on the tariff
question. An evidence of this feeling
has been given by the Democracy of
Holmes county, who sent the Senator a
strong remonstrance calling upon him
to fulfill the “party pledges in the mat-
ter of tree irou ore, coal and sugar, as
well as wool.” In all parte of the
state the Democrats have shown dis-
content with BRrICE’s course, but these
evidences of diesatisfaction have had
no effect upon him, as it has been his
settled purpose to serve the Trusts.
However, the Democracy of Ohio have
to blame themselves for the blunder
they made in electing to the Senate a
man whose career as a etock-jobber
and railroad manipulator of the GouLp
variety, led him naturally to the kind
of legislation that has money in it for
himself. He cares very little for the
party or its principles.
~—Woulda't it have well suited
the McKivieviTes if the House had |
not ‘‘surrendered,” as they call it, but
would have gone on fighting the Se. !
nate, with the effect that no tariff bill
would have been passed and the Mc-
KiNLEY extortion been allowed to
The Hawaiian Republic Recognized.
The Republic of Hawaii has been
recognized by the government of the
United States. This has been done
without unseemly haste, but with be-
coming deliberation. A good deal of
irregularity was manifested in the up-
setting of the old and the establish-
ment of the new government in the
Sandwich islands. There were fea-
tures in the initial movement that re-
flected unfavorably upon authori-
ties connected with this government.
The revolution partook too much of the
character of a conspiracy, and uafortu-
nately United States officers were
among the conspirators. The native
population were averse to it, did not
take part in it, and to-day are not satis-
fied with it. It has been almost ex-
clusively the work of foreigners, and
with the object of preventing the na-
tive population from exerting the influ-
ence in the government of their own
country'which they are naturally en-
titled to, the constitution makes the
President elective by the Legislature,
which can be easily manipulated by
the small faction that got up the revo-
lution and framed the constitution.
This is the kind of republic that
presented itself to our government for
recognition. It is the custom of na-
tions to recognize de facto governments
wherever they may make there appear-
ance, and there being no other in the
Sandwich jIslands the CLEVELAND ad-
ministration has recognized this one;
but it was not of a character that called
for unusual alacrity on the part of Presi-
dent CLEVELAND.
Increased Trade.
It would nat be supposed that
with the general business depression
the export trade of the United
States should be largely on the increase,
but the report from the Bureau of
Statistics of the Treasury shows that
such is the fact. It is true that owing
to the fall in prices the value in dol-
lars is not as great, but in quantity
there has been a large excess compar-
ed with former years. Even with re-
spect to the value of exports, that has
been $38,000,000 in excess of last year.
We exported 90,000,000 gallons more
illuminating oil than last year, and
470,000,000 pounds of cotton in excess
of last year. The exports, of many
other products have been largely in-
creased.
The!demand for our surplus wheat
has been less, which has a great deal
to do with the shrinkage in the value
of that product.
A Doleful McKinley Joke.
A Republican paper, speaking of the
acceptance of the Senate bill by the
House, says, “The revenue reformers
finally threw up the sponge.”
What a singular term to be used in
this connection! Was there any
throwing up the sponge in passing a
bill which effected the reform of re-
ducing the McKINLEY duties from an
average of 58 per cent to an average of
38 per cent ; which reduced the protec-
tion of the sugar trust more than one
half, and that of the coal combine from
75 to 40 cents, and which, in addition
to that greatest triumph of tariff reform,
free wool, algo placed lumber and hemp
on the free list? It is a remarkable
stretch of humor to call this throwing
up the sponge. Tariff reformers can
well laugh at such a joke.
—— Utah was long kept out of the
Union by the Republicans en account
of the alleged iniquity of polygamy.
That was their plea for its exclusion.
But now since it has been determined
that Utah shall come in, the Republi-
cans of that Territory are making up
to the Saints, showing that the princi-
ples of the g. o. p. are remarkably elas"
tic and adjustable to the situation.
In further compliance with this adjust.
ability, the Republican State conven-
tion of Idaho last week wae presided
over by a leading Mormon, represent-
ing 5000 of that peculiar faith, who
had been disfranchised on account of
polygamy, but to whom the right of
suffrage was restored by the last Re-
publican legislature. When it comes
to a question of votes the g. o. p.
shows a remarkable willingness to ov-
erlook the immorality of polygamy.
——The House Committee on For.
eign Affairs did well in indefinitely
postponing the proposed joint resolu-

has come from Great Britain and is
evidently intended to serve British in.

For the Suppression of the Lobby.
Senator ALLEN will be a benefactor
to the country it he shall succeed in
passing his bill for the suppression of
the congressional lobby, but he may
not be more successful than previous
efforts in that direction. As his pur-
pose is to prevent lobbying by punish-
ing the lobbyists, he certainly has a
big job on his hands, considering the
great interests which such a measure
will bave to contend against.
After defining the professional lob-
byist to be one who attempts to in-
fluence legislation by solicitation, &c.,
the bill provides for his punishment
by a fine from $1,000 to $5,000, and
imprisonment from one to five years.
If such a law can be passed, and can
be enforced, it will bring about a
great improvement in congressional
legislation, for most of the abuses
which have characterized the acts of
Congress are traceable to the influence
of the lobby.
The late SAMUEL J. RANDALL, when
Speaker, succeeded in restraining the
lobbyists by excluding them from the
floor of the House. As most of them
are ex-members, they have the pre-
vilge of the floor, but, when shut out of
their old stamping ground they lost
their advantage and found their occu-
pation gone. They had meagre pick-
ting when RanpaLL ruled the
House.
It would greatly improve the char-
acter of legislation at Washington if
the trade of the lobbyists were stopped.
They are a pestiferous set, and the
statesman, be he Democrat or Repub-
lican, who shall accomplish their ex-
tirpation, will deserve well of his
country.
Death of Ex-Senator Sloan.
The Democratic party of Pennsylva-
nia has sustained a loss in the death of
ex-Senator HanNiBaL K., Sroan, w ho
was one of the nominees on its State
ticket for Congressman-at-Large, and
the State has been deprived of a citi-
zen who was prominent and useful in
its public service.
The ex-Senator died at his home in
the town of Indiana last Saturday, and
his untimely and unfortunate demise
makes a vacancy in the Democratic
State ticket, which will have to be sup-
plied by another nomination. The
rules of the party provide that if such
a vacancy occurs within 30 days of the
election the State Executive Commit-
tee shall have the power to name a
person to fill it; but as the death of Mr.
SLoAN has occurred at a much longer
period than that previous to the elec-
tion, the reconvening of the State Con-
vention will be necessary to name a
candidate to take his place on the
ticket.
The deceased was well known and
influential in the Democratic organiza-
tion of this State. He was well ground-
ed in the Democratic faith and un-
swerving in his attachment to the prin-
ciples of the party. In the public posi-
tions he occupied he gained and de-
served the confidence of those he repre-
rented. As a member of the State Sen-
ate he was among the ablest and most
serviceable members of that body. The
State can ill afford to lose a man of
his character and caliber.
Supplemental Tartff Bills.
The House, after its acceptance of
the Senate tariff bill, acted promptly
and with proper spirit in passing a bill
making all sugars free, and three other
separate bills untaxing coal, iroa and
barbed wire. This was done in vindi-
cation of the Democratic principle of
free rawimaterials, which has been im-
paired by the limitation of the Senate
bill. These supplemental measures,
after going through the House with a
great majority, were sent to the Sen-
ate, where it is to be seen whether
they mill meet with the opposition of
the four trust agents and speculating
Senators who crippled the free list of the
original WiLson bill and diminished
the extent of tariff reform demanded
by the party and needed by the coun-
try. This action of the House proves
again that the popular branch of Con-
gress remembers the pledges of the
party platform and persists in having
them fulfilled.
——Who said that the Democratic
party couldn’t pass a reform tariff bill,
and who says that it isn’t a reform bill,
when it reduces the McKINLEY duties
at least a third, on an average; de-
prives the Sugar Trust of half the ad-
vantage given it by the McKINLEY bill,
and places three of the most important
raw materials on the free list? No
party ever more faithfully and success-
fully carried out its pledges in the face
tremendous opposition.
——Since the passage of the tariff
bill some of the Senators have been
telling why they dislike the President.

Coxey's Army Goes to Jail.
The General's Son Hid Under a Bed and Es- :
caped.
WasHINGTON, D. C., Aug. 9.—Forty
Baltimore policemen swooped down
upon the encampment of Coxeyites
near Bladensburg, Md., early this
morning and rounded up the band in
fine style, capturing 108 men. Five of
the prisoners were left to clear up the
camp, while the other 103 were
promptly sent to the House of Correc-
tion for three months’ hard labor.
The camp was a large one, covering
eight acres and contains about 40 tents
and improvised thatchad roof shanties.
It is said that everybody in the army
had money in his pocket when arrest-
ed, and provisions were plentiful.
There were a few skirmishes, but most
of the men took their arrest good-
naturedly. One said it was the first
piece of luck he had encountered since
be joined the procession,
Coxey’s son, Jesse, stayed at camp
last night, which he does not usually
do, but when the raid was made he
hid beneath his bed, and so escaped
arrest. The arrested men were taken
to Hyattsville and put on board a spec-
ial train for Bridgewell.
“General” Coxey, who is now stump-
ing tor election to Congress, was tele-
graphed by Marshal Bullock, of the
army, and is expected to come on to
look atter the welfare of the men.
A Snake in His Trousers.
Did Not Care to Occupy Them With a Deadly
Copperhead.
Woobsringe, N. J., Aug. 10.—Dayid
Ayres, of this place, had a thrilling ex-
perience last night which he will not
forget to his dying day. For the past
week he has been engaged in painting
the barn of Peter Nelson, at Ford’s
Corners, three miles from here. At
noon he took off his trousers and don-
ned a pair of overalls. The trousers
were thrown carelessly on a pile of
hay.
When he returned to the barn at
nightfall to don his trousers he was
somewhat surprised to find something
obstructed his progress. He gave a
fierce tug, and was horror-struck to
see a large coperhead snake poke his
bead out of the waistband. He got
out of the trousers as quickly as possi-
ble, and fled calling for help.
The snake disappeared in the hay,
and later when Nelson went out to the
barn, he found his pet spaniel, Tip, ly-
ing dead. The dog had attempted to
drive the snake out and had lost its
life. The body was swollen to abnor-
mal size from the effects of the poison.
Epidemic of Suicide.
Wholesale Self-Destruction Going on in Brad-
ford and Vicinity.
Braprorp, Pa., Aug. 13.—Bradford
and vicinity just now is having a sea-
son of the suicide epidemic. Last
Monday Hazel Kirk, a Newell avenue
Magdalene, took enough morphine to
kill a horse. A clever physician and
a stomach pump brought her back to
life. On Tuesday Mrs. George Fisher,
of Washington street, thought her hus-
band did not love her and she shot
herself in the breast. She is now hov-
ering between life and death,

self in the heart with a revolver from
which she expired.
Will Make Smokeless Power.
eet ee
WasHINGTON, August 6.— Within a
short time ordnance officers of the
army tiope to see the United States ean-
tirely independent of Europe in the
manufacture and supply of smokeless
powder. Specifications are being pre-
pared now for bids to supply the ma-
terial, and recent experiments have
shown that the prospective bidders are
fully capable of giving a superior arti-
cle.
In future the supply of smokeless
powder purchased for the use of the
army will be wholly domestic, as that
alone could be depended on in the event
of war.
——The attention of the traveling
public is drawn to the new time card of
the Beech Creek Railroad, and particu-
larly to the through sleeping car service
on trains between Clearfield, Philips-
burg and points east, to Philadelphia
and intermediate stations on the Read-
ing road. The Pullman sleeping car
now runs daily, except Sunday, between
Clearfield and Philadelphia, and it is
the only through car service between
Philadelphia and points in the soft coal
region.
The local time card of the Beech
Creek road, is also well adapted to the
needs of the country through which the
line passes. The through car service
will be appreciated, and should certain-
ly be well patronized.
