tion briefly. 1'irst, let in seo where the divid
ing lino coinoa in between I ho capitalist and
the laboring man. It can be defined only in
on3 way, aud thit ii that ho who owns n cow
and takes caro of her ou liis own promise,")
and lias no deVtro to let her run at Inrjre, ii u
capitalist, while ho who wants to paiture his
inttlo tn liu neighbor door yard h the labor
ine wan. Thii ii tho iiievitabla cotieliiMoii of
their owu reasoning, for they claim a victory
over ' capital'' bcamo of tho election of a
majority In the Town Council iu favor of re
pealing (ho cattle ordinnncc.
i iu.1 it all nonono. i he issue was no
inoiu between capital and labor than it wa
nciwecii uiimiitu arm Jionamnieiian. or
was it a t'st or popularity between candidates.
Tin) issue male by the so-called labor party
was simply wliethor c.ittlo should run at large,
anJ to this cvcrytliini,' elc was subordinated
Although this point was carried it is by no
means conclusive of n majority of voters ia
favor of the lcpcal of tho ordinance. There
are men in tho town who hate, perchance,
been arrested for soma cause, by tho Chief of
police, and ah those voted against the old
council which had put a man iu oflico who
t.arcd to do his duty. Tliere arc others who
v anted to work on tho roads, and because
the street commissioner did not seo fit to em
,iloy thorn they too voted against tho council
that appointed him. There are many more
who inver did an honest days work in their
lives, but when the opportunity olfers itself,
ato the loudct in denunciation of tho op-
piesion ol tho poor man by tho bloated
bond-hoMcr. flicso of eouise all voted again
tho parly of progress, aud on day in the
year they aro laboring men, that is election
djy, , There aro printers who call themselves
l iborinr; men simply for tho purpose of get'
ting n chance to do the town printing, and
whilo talking loudly about the poor man, de
sire only to put money in their own pockets.
These too, vote to let tho cows run. And
thcro aro men who ally themselves with
this party to pull tho wool over the eyes of
tuo laboring man, in the hope that it may in
crease the chances of an appointment as po'
liccinan, High constable. Town treasurer or
Solicitor. Aud these arj all precious friend:
of the poor men, who are being used as cat's
paws without knowing it. Notwithstanding
all those sido issues, and tho intrigues of
Bcliemera who aro looking only to self, the in-
noceut cow has tho whole burden thrown on
her back, and she is tuada tho pack horse on
which tho election is carried.
If there is a strugglo between labor and
capital in tins town, it w high timo tho m-
called capitalists found it out. If it be true
that each voto cast for Jlr. Herring was in-
tended as a blow at capital then it is time
that those who furnish employment for the
laboring class should stop putting bread in
tho mouths of tho treacherous rcptilo which
stings tho hand that feeds it. But as we said
in tho beginning tho proposition is an absurd
one, and tho 1'rcstdcut of ;tho council elect,
will bo tho first to repudiate the statement
that the issuo was between capital and labor.
Ileaaish's Pardon.
A rOMriCALTKAPi: FOR LUZERNE,
Tho recommendation of tho Hoard of Par1
dons in the ease of Frank A. Iieauiish lias
been approved by Gov. Hartranft, and the
papers wero mailed last Friday. The reconi
inendation for the pardon was signed by Lieu
tenant Governor Latta, So-rctary of Internal
Affairs JlcCandless and Secietary of the
Commonwealth Quay. Attorney General
Lear who was not influenced by any such rea
sons as the ol hers, but looked at'the case from
the cold standpoint of law and facts, declined
to agreo iu the recommendation. Among
those who petitioned for tho pnrdon aro Hon.
Charles It. liuckalew, and Hon. Stauley

Gcorgo Judge and twenty clergymen of tho
Catholic Church, ns well as a number who
vigorously urged his prosecution. Tho ease
lias) betn before tho board for six months.and
tho ostensible ground for granting the pardon
is the condition ol Beamisb's wife, who suf
fers great mental anguish, and with six chil
dren, is destitute. It is al-o eouteuded that
!eami;h was puuished for a graver crime
than contemplated in tho indictment ajpinst
him.
Tho action of the Governor lifts created a
decided sensation. Thcro is a general feeling
that it has a political significance, and that
Col. I- oyt expects to derivo substantial bene
fits from it. Attorney General Lear lias no
hesitancy In stating that in his opinion the
prisoner should remain in tho penitentiary.
Among the specious pretexts given for
tho pardon is ono that I'cami.di, having great
influence with the riotous elements of Luzerno
county, will restoro pcaco to that county. It
is stated that the miners are drilling and ap
parently ready for another outbreak. With
Beamish froe it .is given out that tho im
pending danger could bo averted.

Iif-giilatlvo Correspondence.
HarrisbUro, Feb". 27, 1878.
Your llnrrlsburg Correspondent, owes you
and your readers an humble apology for his
neglect of tho past twowecks. It was owing
to circumstances over which ho had no con
trol. With n faithful promise, that his let
ters whether good bad or indlll'crcnt In your
estimation shalt not again bo among the
mllng, ho resumed tho broken thread of
legislation. The sessions of tho past two
weeks have been dull and uninteresting.
Last week no session was held until Wednes
day evening. Tho calendar of bills on first
reading was then taken up In the House and
over one hundred bills wc ro read. The ab
sence) of a quorum tn tho Senate prevented
that branch of tlio legislature from holding
any session until Thursday morning.
In tho House on rriilay the whole session
was consumed with tho consideration of ori
ginal resolutions which made It cpilte lively
for n while. A summary of t rldays work-
Is as follows :
Jlr. Shatfer of Allegheny desired to pro
hibit bills from being read in place In the
House after the first of March. This the
House refused to direct. Then Mr. Heller
of l.ehlgh asked and obtained tho consent
of the Houe to granting tho use of their
hall to the Hon. Adam Woolever, to deliver
lis far fumed lecture on the enfranchisement
of woman. The request was granted and to-
night the Hon. Adam is holding forth to a
crowded bouse, and his remarks are being
received with tears of joy, but to resume
our Fridays work, Mr. Faunce of Philadel
phla wanted tho Hoiiso to adjourn finally on
April 10, but his resolution was sent to the
committed on ways and means, and the gen
ial John is confident that tliere is no way or
means by which ho can get it out again
Mr. Schell desired a change in the rules
of the House so as to prevent members from
recording their votes without rising to re
main standing in their places until their
names are called and recorded. This is in
tended to prevent a fraudulent count, and
was accordingly laid ovor for future consid1
oration.
Mr. Iluhu, of Philadelphia adorning him
aclfin his old centennial war paint came
forward with a resolution, which tho House
adopted aud which tho Senate to-day sent to
the centenial committee calliug upou Con
gress to come to the aid of the centennial
authorities with an appropriation of one
million of dollars.
Being the birth-day of tho "Father of
His Country" Mr eakle wanted the House
to adjourn five miuutes beforo the regular
timo out of respect to tho said F. 0. II. C.
but as this legislature seems to have but very
little respect for anything connected with
thegood of tbocountry.it didn't adjourn even
for five minutes.
Tho Senate has passed a resolution to ad
journ tine die on March 28 but the resolution
upon being messaged to the House was laid
to rest in committee along side of Faunce's
10th of April resolution.
Yesterday evening the Senate held a ees
sion of about ten minutes passed several
bills on first reading and adjourned.
In the House Mr. Souder of Philadelphia
from tho committee appointed to draft reso-
lutions on the death of Harry O'Neill late
member from the fourth district of Philadel
phia reported a preamble and resolution!
which after appropriate speeches by Messrs,
Souder, Huhn, Long v em were unaui
mously adopted. The House then adjourned
without doing any busmess,out of respect to
the memory of the deceased member. At
the close of this session the "Immortal" "I
N" who was present iu the lobby was called
upon for a speech and responding, he enter'
tained the members for half an hour or more,
He gave somo home thrusts of a political
nature to both sides of the House which
were much enjoyed.
To-day has been marked with little of im
portance in legislation excepting the tem
porary defeat of tho Philadelphia recorders
bill. It fell iu the House tor wunt of a con
stitutional vote tho yeas were 9t, and the
nays 77. A political admixture in tho vote
was somewhat of a surprise. Among the
yeas were seven democrats mostly from Phil
adelphia, whilo among the nays wero six
teen republicans.
This bill will be taken up again in the
House, when that number in which safety
lies, is present.

Thomas P. Fisher Respited.
SOME NEW EVIDENCE.
Aliai Death Warrant) of Hester, Tullij and
McIIugh signed by the Governor.
A respito of thirty days was granted by
tho Governor last Friday to Thomas P. Fish
er, who was to bo hanged on Tuesday last at
Mauch Chunk, on tho btrongth of an affidavit
made by a man who avers that when Morgan
Powell was killed Fisher was in his company
at a hotel. Tho reason given for the delay in
making this statement is that ho was afraid
that if ha testified to the fact during the trial
his life would be in danger owing to the bit
ter feeling against tho Mollio Maguircs. The
affidavit conflicts with tho testimony of two
accomplices iu the murder, who stated that
Fisher pointed out Powell to Yellow Jack
Donahue, who fired the fatal shot.
At the next meeting of tho Board of Par-
dons, on tho first Tuesday in March, the new
matter furnished will bo examined, and if
tlio statement be accepted as true tho prison
er's fccntence will bo commuted to imprison
ment for life. Alias death warrants havo
beeu issued fpr the execution of Patrick Hes
ter, Peter McIIugh and Patrick Tully, on
March 25, aud death warrants for the execu
tion of John Kchoo and Dennis Donnelly, on
April 18, 1878.
Tho cases of Hester, Tully and McIIugh
will bo presented to tho Board of Pardons
next week.
Balden, tho Elm Station murderer, con
victed of tho murder of Max Hoehue in
Montgomery county, cheated tho gallows by
hanging himself in his cell on last Saturday
night. Ho made a rope out of the lied
clothes, tore a piece of iron from the cell heat'
er, fastened the rope to tho cross bar in tho
window, kicked a chair from uuder him aud
struck himself on the head with tho iron at
the samo time. II hen found ho was dead
and his skull broken.
Judio H'liitalver lias rendered a decision
upon tlio motion for a now trial- in tho caso of
Thomas 0. Anderson, tho convicted member
of tho Louisiana stato returning board. He
holds that tho verdict is in accordance with
the evidence and .refuses to grant a new
trial.
Tho .Silver Hill passed tho House last week
Thursday with tbe Scuato amendments, by
more than a two-thirds voto. Tho l'rcsidcnt
may veto tbe bill, but if lio does it will bo
passed over his head, by a largo majority iu
both branches of Congress. Tho full test of
tho bill was published last week.

Editors Comjmbiak ,
Iknr Sin t In my last letter I promised
) our readers n brief description ot Carthago
and other towns in tho "Southwest." In this
letter space will only permit me to give a do-
fcriptlon of llio"Queoii City of the Southwest,"
CjUitmaiik, tho county seat of Jasper county,
Mo. It was laid out ns a town nnd becamo the
county scat In If (2. Its location Is on Spring
river and on uu i miuoncei m ar tho centre of
the county, commanding a sjileudid view of the
surrounding country for miles. 1 lie growth of
the town was slow but sure, hoih in population
And Health, until nt tho beginning of the rebel
lion, nhcu it uumbrrcd u population uf &U0.
At that time it was dcuiid of church buildings
(regular preachiug was held at tho court house
every Sunday) and school houses, save one
small building, I believe I and it had no stage
line connection with tho outside world, except
a daily mail carried on horseback from Sjircox
ie, tliu mother tnn of dapi r county, 15 miles
distant.
This is the place where tin- famous battle b.
tttceu (len. Fran. Sigcl, of the Union forces,
d Gen. Stirling Price, of the Confederate
forces, was fought, known ns tho "battle of
Carthage" Tho town was completely deus
tated and depopulated during the war, and I
nm informed imlv till' dwellings escaped de
struction. lp tn the conchiMoii of the war the
ton u remained a desolate and silent place ! tlio
public square and streets wero deserted, save
by tho wolf mid deer, and wandering bands of
niarrimlcrs passing through,
After the war the town began tn settle again
and improved nnd piospered until it has gained
the reputation of tlio"QmTii City of the South'
west," Its prosperity now lusts upon u sound
nnd substantial basis. Spring r'uer, which
flows by the city and mirlhwct, is finely adapt'
cd for manufacturing purposes, and the farm'
ing land unrounding is of the best quality and
very productive, nnd plenty of it The city can
boa-t of the bet flouring mill in the Slate out
side of St. Louis, located on the above named
river. The capacity of this mill is over 1,000
husheis per week, and was built at u cost of
$40,000. Two other excellent flouring mills,
a woolen mill, two foundries,four wagon shops,
manufacturing ns good a wagon ns can be found
anywhere in Pennsylvania, nnd a plow factory,
are in successful operation and constantly kept
busy despite the hard times. A furmturo man
ufaetory is successfully nnd extcnsiveyl carried
on by I.eidy Bros. & Co. Tho former nre Co
lumbia county men, well known by a large
number of your Tenders. They came here seV'
eral years ago, started in the business in con
ncction with Mr. John Bottenficld, n gentleman
in every respect and an experienced business
man, from Ohio, and being men of enterprise
established for themselves an extensive busb
ness, and, I am glad to say, they enjoy the con
fidoncc of tho people. Their factory is large,
ns also is their retail and wholesale depart'
ment. There are four banks here doing a gen
eral banking and exchange business in nil its
branches, nnd all have the confidence of the
people. The public school building is an im'
posing structure,and was built at a cost of $36,
000. There are also n Public Library, seven
churches, M. L, Baptist, Congregational, Epis'
copal, Prcsbjtcrian, Christian, nnd M. E.
Church South ; and four weekly newspapers
nnd two dailies, the Jtanner, (Uep.) morning
and weekly, iWn'ot, (Dem.) evening and week
ly, 'km, (Ind.) weekly, nnd the t(fmn, (neit'
tral) weekly. All nro live nnd well supported
newspapers nnd ably edited. Tho different se
crct societies are also well represented.
The city contains quite a number of commO'
dious brick business buildings, together witli
a handsome Opera House just completed, hv
cited in the public square in the centre of the
city; the square is very much like that
Wilkcsbarrc, Pa. The public buildings, court
house and jail, are not as substantial ns they
should be, but the city is young nnd is excuse
hie for the present. Tho residences are fine
nnd tidy, nnd were built, it is plainly seen for
comfort. The city is rapidly filling up with
eastern people and now contains n population
of about 0,000.
I have omitted many things that would be
interesting to the readers of the Columiiian
but it will take up ton much space and I hope
this will sulhce for the present. One word, I
advise the mechanic and laborer not to come
west for tho present to seek work. Stay nt
home if you havo employment, even at small
wages. As for the farmers let them come by
the hundreds, they are wuuted here.
Ucspectfully,
H. II. Rutter,
An Explanation.
Editors Columbian : In your remarks
of last week ou tho County Statement you
wero somewhat in error.
1. The statement gives tho amount of tax
es ases5ed for 1677, and the amount still duo.
The difference between these two is the
amount paid which is greater than that un
paid.
.tour luea mat raxes snouiu do paiu sooner
than they aro is, I think good. Tho northern
counties of this State generally have their
county collectors settle their duplicates by
the first of January each year, but in tho rest
of tho Stato it tardy if ever liappens.
2. You seem Jnot to understand why tho
Treasurer is charred with $13,433. when only
$3761. was duo from collectors prior to 1877.
This $13,433 is the amount uncollected at the
end of the year 187S and charged against the
Treasurer at the beginning of 1877, and the
J2701 is what remained unpaid out of the
$13,133 at tho end of the year 1877.
As to tbe frlOO. charge on dog fund, I
think right. It is charged against the dog
fund aud thrown luto the county fund. The
dog and county statements show it.
No oi dors aro drawn on tho dog fund
for anything except sheep damago
and tho County bears all expenses ; such as
paying assessors, paying for blanks, &c.,and
the printing of the dog fund statement, au
diting accounts, and all other matters inci
dent to conducting tbe fund,
1. As to exonerations, no doubt that many
are larger than they should be. As to the
Bloom exonerations for the year 1870, you
give the amount $10 the statement shows
$19.20, but $18.01 was made during 1870,
and that with the $10.20 makes $07.21 upon
a County aud Stato tax of $3105.01. So it
compares favorably with other districts un
less it be Centralla and Couyngham. These
amounts also include returns of seated land.
The Commissioners intern), as soon as all
exonerations for 1877 are taken, to publish
a list, ko the public and all interested can
so who are exonerated.

The Reason Why.'
We are often asked by well-meaning persons,
says the Lcwlsburg "Chronicle," why they have
to pay higher prices for country newspapers
than for those printed In the titles ? "Why do
you charge two dollars for the "Chronicle,"
when I can get the N ew ork Sockdologer a
bigger paper for a dollar and a lmlf?" Wc
will try to clear up this mvlety, Suppose the
Chronicle hn n rii-h Mih-rrlptlon ll-t of one
thousand nt $2.00 that makts $2,000. Well
now, tnpKe the New York Sockdologer, or
whatever paper you choose for a comparison,
has a paying ll-t of 103 0110, nt $l,.)0-lhat
makes $l.VlO0il. Now, upi-e this paper lias
a profit of lint ten i tiits lh.it clears the pub
lisher $10,000. Now mpe the Chronicle
realizes that p r cent ice, ami no more that
would make n sum of $li0 This luttrr amount
would compel a printer to Jive yery "thin"
himself, snd rqnsndtr nothing on his family j
while his city rotemHiritry could wax a's fat as
Jeshurun, You see the nccei'-lly ofcountrv
printer charging more than a city printer, now,
don't yuii ' A piper the sli of the Chronicle,
with its circulation nnd price, couldn't live over
night In a city.
The ponotr&tlngwlnils Incident to Hits season ot
