HOW LANCASTER DOES IT.
Lancaster, tho pride and bulwark of tlio
llopublican party, notwithstanding her
wealth and resources has gravitated Into a
debt of nearly $300,000. Berks her bister
county and rival, Is under Democratic man"
agement, and out of debt.
Tho Auditors of Lancaster, evidently cu
rlousmeu and nominatod because it was ira
agined that the office was of no Importance,
made a lengthy report. In It thev say
We also fiud by the minutes of tbo Hoard ot
f Commissioners of Lancaster county, that
Jacob Greonawalt, President, met and trans
acted business seventy-four days without a
quorum of tho Board being present; thirty'
seven of those days ho was prcfeut lu pur
suance of adjournment of the regular Board
and thirty-seven days he was present in pur'
suanco oi his own adjournment and call.
i This beata Luzerne and Schuylkill.
The Auditors also complain about the
paymont of 510,350,00 lor County advurtis
itig. In Democratic Columbia the County
only paid $1,013,60 for advertising, blank?,
stationery and postage.
Wo commend these facts to our Ilepub
lican brethren. Stealing is so natural to tho
lladical office holder th it it Is not surpris
ing that Corruption taints every official at
Washington, and In this Stato has Philadel
phia, Pittsburg and Lancaster as abiding
places.
A W0H.D TO SUPERVISORS.
As a faithful journalist it is not only our
duty to keep our readers informed on the
tunics of tho day, to point out abuses and
suggest remedies but also to instruct ig
norant or careless officials as to their public
iduties. ,If after such public notice, they
fall In the discharge of their offices, tho peo
ple themselves are responsible for not pun
ishing their neglect.
The following is an Act of Assembly forty
yoars old, but la so generally neglected that
we reprint it :
"The Supervisors of every township shall
cause posts to be erected at the Intersection
of all public roads within their respective
townships (where trees are not convenient)
with boards firmly fixed there-on, and index-hands
pointing to the direction of such
roads ; on which boards shall be inscribed,
in large, legible characters, the name of the
town, village, or place, to which such roads
may lead, and the distance thereto compu
ted in miles.
"If any Supervisor shall, after ten days
personal notice, neglect or refuse to put up
or keep in complete repair, index-boards as
,atriiatd, such Supervisor shall, for every
such offence, forfeit and pay a sum not ex
ceeding teu dollars."
CARRYING CONCEALED WEAPONS.
It is about time that the wholesomo pro
visions of the law against carrying concealed
weapons should bo enforced by the proper
officers. As it is at present, the law is a dead
letter. Tho evil is spreading with great ra
pidity, and there is scarcely a boy over 14
years of age that has not his revolver, loaded
and ready for use, carrying it about with
him. We can scarcely pick up a pa
per that has not an account of an accidental
shooting, or what is worse, a premeditated
one. Even in the rural districts at alt gath
erings of a social, literary or religious char
acter, it is not unusual after the close of the
exercises to hear the.report of several pistols
as tho folks are retiring to their homes. A
young: man is not fully equipped unless be
haa ajfrevolver or pistol in his hip pocket.
1 fi j'8 arm of the law should be invoked
and an example, made of a few. so that the
rest may be deterred from this vicious prac
tice. Our attention has been called to several
cases in our town, and we trust the offenders
will be brought to justice. It is a cowardly
and unnecessary practice as a rule.
MORE STEALS.
We get tired recording them, but as the
Republican organs are afraid to let their
readers know the truth we must keep them
informed.
One Clapp, the Government printer, ad
raits to (58,000, and the Committer are not
through with him.
And then comes Bucher Swope, formerly
U. S. Attorney fur our Western District and
the light and pride of his party. It seems
that lie gobbled from $15,000 to $20,000, and
his estate Is being sued lor it.
Next I
TUB BOOM BILL.
The examination of witnesses before the
House and Senate committees still contin
lies. We refrain from any opinion until we
see the evidence. The bill is dead, and
whether the investigation is a shrewd device
of Hemic a or not we aro unable to pay,
Kmblck, of the Lumber Exchange, and Uer-
die, of the Susquehanna Boom Company,
way be able to tell us all about it. There
is no doubt, however, that the means used
to pass the bill and to defeat it were corrupt
and disgraceful.

THE
WORDS FITLY SPOKEN.
Wlicnover an net of rascality Is com
milted by the Republican leaders, tho office
holding and petty newspaper clan rush In
discriminated Into a defenco of their party.
If the Treasury Is proven to Imvo been
systematically robbed, Instead of condemn
ing tho thief, abuo U 1 leaped upon tbo
Democrats who detected and brought to
punishment the offenders. If a Democratic
Congress iitioartbs startling fraud,, and
show that they have been not only cn
courugeu for years by the party In power
but with the knowledge and assistance, of tho
Presldeut and his subordinates, tho only
answer is a wavo of "tlio bloody shirt," and
a weak editorial about the "Confederate
Congress."
Democratic rule In certain Southern States
is denounced as tvrr.tnleal, but tho outrages
committed by such mon as Kellogg. Pinch'
back, Ames, Patterson, Moses, and Spencer
in Mississippi, Louisiana, Alabama and
South Carolina aro justified, and tho pcrpo
trators rewarded by a debauched party.
In South Carolina, however, tbe matter
has gono too far, and even the thick-skinned
Frets speaks out as follows ;
Republican conventions like that in session
for tho nast few davs at Columbia. South
Carolina, aro a disgrace to the majority
which controls them, to tbo Slate they pro
tend to represent, and to the great party of
the nation. Tho scenes of violent disorder
which accompanied the proceedings fitly
Illustrate tho character of tho majority as,
well as the means by which their success
was gained. For South Carolina tlio present
is a critical time, adovo an things else,
that Stato needs an honest government. Re
publican or Democratic, tho administration
of uer political atlatrs ought to be econo
tnical, upright, above suspicion. Is there
any probability of her securing such
blessing at the hands of tho faction which
now appears to be in control of tho orgam
zation embracing the great majority of voters
in tbe State? The most, malignant enemy
of South Carolina could wish her no worse
fate than to be governed as this kind of noli
ticians govern, while her wcll-wishors must
oe appalled by tho prospect. When the
party is to speak for the State, and the Stato
is preparing to co-operato with her sister
States in Isatioual Council, the rank and
file allow themselves to bo swayed by the
cunning hand of intrigue till, as wo'havo
said, disaster and disgrace come upon them.
The moral has become trite, but is none the
less useful let tho people dictate terms to
it.!' , ' r i ... . .

orders from them. But it is not alone South
Carolina which is affected by this defeat.
republicanism sutlers witn ner. it it is
true that tho Republicans of the Palmetto
state aro really in lavor ot pure and honest
government, It is equally truo that the Re
publicans of the nation are standing on
precisely the same platform : yet, as the
South Carolinians will bo judged by the two
thirds vote of their convention against the
proposition to endorse Governor Chamber
lain, ho there is great danger that the nation
al party may bo charged with insincerity
when it asks for a continuance in nowcr on
a platform the foundation-plank of which
is reform. We have frequently said, and
would now emphasize the reiteration, that
the best interests of tne country demand
another Republican Administration, com
posed of tho ablest and best men of tbat
political faith ; but the example of South
Carolina is not cheering, and docs nol tend
to impress thinking people with the truth
fulness of the claim of the Republican party
to be the only party of true reform. It is
because the masses are not represented by
the politicians that direrace and defeat have
sometimes come to our party.
In a recent editorial on the Lancaster
Convention we used the following language :
"The demagogues and political adventurers
were placed in the rear and their anti-Dem
ocratic principles repudiated. The people
have spoken and so fitly that not even a howl
is heard from those hurt."
It seems the Potltville Standard was wound
ed as may be seen by the following "howl":
We like cheek, but when Brockway of the
Bloomsburg Columbian, pronounces such
veteran Democrats as F. V. Hughes and
Hon. Hendiick B. Wright "mere political
adventurers," isn't it about timo to take
Broukway's measure.
The Lancaster Convention took the "mens-
uro" of these gentlemen, and pretty unani
mously ordered them to "step down and
out."
It looks as if the Democratic officials ot
Luzerne county would take the place in iail
so recently vacated by the Democratic offi
cials of Schuyklll county. Uaiette it Bulel
tin A little inquiry might have enabled tho
Bulletin to learn the fact that the commiss
ioners in Luzerne and the pardoned ones
from Schuykill are not all Democrats. Fur
ther that in the latter county they were sen
tenced by a Democratic Judge, and pardon
ed by a Republican Governor. Alio that a
Republican Judge in Luzerne is implica
ted with the Commissioners.
There is no longer any need of trifling
with the case of Babcock. We are no more
disposed than any one to take all that Whit
ley says ot him as tbe truth, but their) is
other evidence. Babcock has been a stand
ing disgrace to the administration of the
President, and it will be a blessed day for
Grant when the late private secretary is
effectually bounced.
Right for once, but what will our neighbor
the Republican, say to such treasonable
utterances. A few years ago such sentluients
would have landed their author in Port
Mifflin. Gazetted Bulletin.
Col. Forney is becoming discouraged. He
sadly remarks that "the example of South
Uarollua Is not cheering and does not tend
to impress tmnklng people with tho trutn-
uiness oi mo claim oi (be republican party
to be tbo only parly of true reform."
It Is scarcely worth Col. lorney'B while
to worry over that, Thenumber of "think
ing people" who hold any such opinion re
garding the Republican party Is too small
to fret about. Except the office holders and
organ editors no body now-a-days has the
faiutest symptoms of such a belief.

T ! ; p, Kllbnurn Habeas Corpus case Is tho
only topio nf conversation nere. And It
deserves to be, for It Is ono of tlio most Im
portant questions ever before Congress. I
will brielly recapitulate tho facts. Kllbnurn
wua summoned before n committee of the
House and directed to bring Ills bonks and
pipers relating to what is known as tho Real
Estate Pool, Kllbnurn gives tho names of
some of tho members of tho pool and among
others that of Jay Cooko & Co. This firm
was Indebted to tbo government In n large
sum of money and the object of tho Inquiry
was to ascertain if they bad any interest in
property not surrendered. Mr. Kelbourn
stated that tbo courts had examined that
question and that all tho Interest of Jay
Cooko & Co., had been given up. He re
fused to give the names of the other nrtles
In tho pool or to exhibit bis books and pa
pers. The committco reported him to the
House as in contempt for rofusingto answer.
Tho House ordered him into the custody of
Thompson sergeant-at-arms and to bo con
fined in tho District Jail. Kelbourn stated
before tho committee and repeated it beforo
tho House that if "any gentleman hero or
any member of the committee will express
his conviction, grounded on any fact known
to him. that there is any connection what
ever with any public act that Congress has a
right to investigate or to found any legisla
tion upon, that he was ready to answer any
questions that might be put to him." But
ho declined upon tho ground that ".his busi
ness was wltli private citizens nnd that the
government had no right to inqulro Into It."
Many Democrats hold that Kllbourn was
right and that the House committed an er
ror in sending him to Jail Under a law
passed some years ago, the Speaker certified
Kelbourn'scase to the District Court and he
was indicted. Marshall Snarpo demanded
his body but it was refused. Kelbourn then
sued out a writ of Habeas Corpm beforo
Judge Carter, chief justlco of tho District.
Tlfu writ was made returnable last Saturday
and Mr. Thompson upon whom it was served
asked until Tuesday, as he had submitted
the question of whether he should produce
the body to tho House of Representatives
by whoso order lie held it. The question was
referred to the Judiciary committee and on
Saturday they made two reports. Tho ma
jority reported against permitting the body to
re delivered, but tho minority consisting of
Proctor Knott of Kentucky. Lynde of Wis
consin and Frye of Siaino reported In favor
ot obeying the writ, frye is a republican
whileltnott and Lynde are Democrats. They
presented tho following resolution, "lie
soloed. That tbo sergeaut-at-arms be,and he
is hereby directed, to mako careful return
to tho writ of Habeat Corput in the case of
Hallett Killbourn, that the person is duly
held by the authority of tlio House of Rep
resentatives to answerm proceedings against
him for contempt, and tiiat tho sergeant-at-
arms take with him the body of said Kel
bourn before said court when making such
return, as required by law." Alter long dis
cussion llin minority report was adopted by
a vote of 105 yeas to 72 nays. Seventy-six
Democrats and eighty-nine Republicans
voted yea. and sixty-eight Democrats three
Republicans and Mr. Banks voted nay. To
day Mr. Kelbourn is before Judge Carter
and his attorneys claim that lie is unjustly
held, as he was not bound in law to answer
tbe questions put to him not to to produce
tbe books nnd papers required. So the
question is settled for the present and Con
gress acted wisely in obeying tlio writ.
Should Judge Carter decide to inquire into
the legality ot the action ot the House and
to dcteriniuo whether it had tbe right to
put tbo questions and ii event of a failure
to answer to imprison for contempt, then
the Supreme Court will bo called on to de
cide.
The Grand Jury of the District has in
dicted General Babcock, Harrington Dis
trict Attorney, Wlutelv and jNettusliip de
tectives and the burglars whom they em
ployed for the safe burglary conspiracy. The
indictments set lorth that these parties con
spired together for the purpose of robbing
the safe of the District Attorney and putting
the books and papers taken therefrom into
the possession of Columbus Alexander, thus
enabling them to charge and convict him of
the robbery. Babcock was bailed iu the
sum of ten thousand dollars. Tho payments
of the Geneva award will bo made on the
first of May. nnd tlio Secretary of the
Treasury has ordered the sale of six millions
ot Iionds to raise the money, uen. Delknap
appeared before the Senate to-day to answer
the impeachment charge. Ho was repre
sented by Mont'omerv if air, Jiiii(.o Jere.
Black and ex Senator Matt Carpenter. He
pleads to the iurUdiction of the court, upon
tho ground that having resigned ho cannot
be impeached. I line is given lor tne parues
to prepare their arguments upon this ques
tion, which is reallv.the most important one
iu the case, for itmakes very littledifference
whether Belknap is found guilty or not, but
it is highly important mat it suaii ue uen
nitely settled whether an officer can escape
impeachment by resignation.
It is said that leading army officers are
asking for a court martial to try Babcock.
Some of them say they do not want to be
associated on terms of equality witli a man
who is accused ot sucli crimes as be is accus
ed nf.
The finance question has dropped nut of
Congress, seemingly without any precon
certed arrangement to that effect. Whether
this is a wise movement on the part of the
Democrats nr not time will tell, I am in
clined to think that tho people want some
action on this subject and will not be satis
fied without it, A strong movement in fa
vor of Judge David Davis is being develop
ed. His friends claim that ho is the strong
est man that can be put before tho people by
the St. Louis' convention and are urging
him for tho placo. Tho friends of Bavard.
Tilden, Hendricks and Thurman each make
the same claim for their favorites, anil the
Democrats must finally determine. Blaine
still leads on the Republican side, though
somo cfibrto are being made to smirch him.
So fur they have resulted in nothing definite
enough lor mm to demand an investigation,
and have been successfully answered,
RENO.
TUB STATE CAPITOL.
IlAUMsnuna, April 18th, 187C.
The snail's pace at which legislation mov
ed during the first half of the session, which
characterizes every, .Legislature and which
forces the conviction on the mind of u casual
observer that lawmakers are truly a lazy set
of men, has given place at last, since the
time for final adjournment has been fixed,
ton busy activity and pushing forward ol
the work, which bids fair soon to divest the
calendars of their plethoric appearance and
to leave them in a condition in striding con
trast to that of last year.
As is customary, appropriation bills were
given precedence in consideration by Hie
House, and all that appeared upon the cal
endars, a large number, have been passed to

Among the matters of importance which

following : On Wednesday the committer

alleged abuses in the conduct of the affairs
of the Philadelphia Huuso of Refuge mude
a report which, while It does not by auy
meaus confirm the stories which were afloat.
censures the present superintendent of the
institution most stverely for cruel and over
severe corporeal punishment of tlio Inmates
and with neglect of cleanliness and means of
securing the beaun or tue children.
A minority report was also presented
which embodied uu attempted excuso of the
superintendent for his negligence, A result
of the investigation has been that the bill
making the annual appropriation of money
to this Institution was with difficulty passed.

Another bill has also passed, in which
your readers will feel an interest. It allows

The general stay law from executions on
judgments has been defeated, relief lor debt
ors being provided in tho assignee law, pass

The Senate, having backed down from Its
position lu regard to tlio consideration of
Ilouso bills, Is busily engaged on the Homo
calendar. The general appropriation bill Is
engaging IU attention at present.
Tho lloorn Investigating Committco are
