inj; acts to ltIn it. As candidate for tate
Treaurer in 187,1, ho attempted to wield
tuo (Irnnijprs a non-potitieal organization
in liisbehall, but utterly failed. At a recent
netting of that body we find tho following
account of his actions :
"During the exercises tho Rudienco were
treated to an amusing scene. Mr Dill was
absent, but Colonel Iloyt and Mr. Mason
occupied prominent fiats. When Mr. Ma
son was introduce!, the National candidate
admitted that ho was rusty on questions ol
agriculture and congratulated himself that
lloyt and Dill were just as proficient in
the science. Ha was glad that Col. Piollet
was on band to makeasuitnbln address. Mr,
Hoyt followed in a speech just as expressive
and then Col. Piullct ttartled tbetu both by
demanding in a loud voice that they speak
to the assembled farmers on the vital qties
Hon of the day. ''Should corporations be
the, people h masters or the peoplojhe mas
ters or tne corporations? is what we want
to know I'' shouted the Colonel, and the re
sponses echoed through tho woods as shout
after shout for Ilcyt and JIasrn went up
Irom tlie multitude. Mr. Hoyt advanced
and explained, in a lew well-chosen remark'
that this was not tho occasion to discuss pot
itical questions, but ho mentioned, just fo:
information, he said, that four little corpor
ationsin Luzerne county pay seven hundred
thousand dollars annually to tho State for
taxes, lie claimed that the farmers were
not the only people who were taxed, and
while he did not defend the present sys
tem of taxation he counseled charity for all
Mr. Mason wouldn't pick up the gauntlet
thrown down by Col. l'iollet any more than
would Iloyt, and expressed himself very
much after the manner of the latter. Coj.
Piollet wouldn't rest, and again made a
speech in which he addressed most of his
remarks to the two candidates, who seemed
to grow very uneasy under his catechising.
lie talked much against coal combinations,
until Hoyt said: "Shake not thy gory locki
at me ; thou canst not say that I am a coal
operator." This created good feeling again,
and when in response to another invitation
from Piollet,, Hoyt stepped forward again
and introduced .Mason and tho one made and
i other seconded a motion of thanks to
36T. l'iollet for makingjust thespcech which
' said they both intended to make, there
was a happy ending to a very ludicrous
scene.
Who made Aric. Piollet a Judgo as to cor
porations? II inearnest. he is a sudden con
vert. He forgets the jobs he perpetrated 89
an employeo of the State when it owned our
canals. He forgets that he was "a corpora
tion man" when the Lehigh Valley was ex
tended, under which he got a fat contract,
and a large portion of his revenue is derived
from that corporatLn. The less, therefore,
Piollet attacks capital and corporations, the
better for his own consistency, and probably
more to thotasto of his son-iu-latv,the son of
Asa Packer.
Tile Congressional Conference of the Elev
enth District.
STJSODDsnur.0, Octoter 1,1878.
The Democratic conference of tlieEleventh
Congressional district met brc to-day.
Lackawanna had a full delegation present,
and Luzerne, Montour and Pike recognized
the Lackawanna conferees, which led the
couferccs of Carbon, Columbia and Monroe
to reluse to join them. Tb last uamed
counties are either partially or wholly friend
ly to Ilobert Klotz, and they organized an
other couferoi ce, into which a contesting
delegation Irom Luzerne was admitted. The
anti-Klotz conference met at 11:80 this morn
ing and after organization adjourned until
2:30, and the Klotz conferees irom Carbon,
with those Irom Monroe and Culumbla, were
invited to come into united conference at
that time, but they refused and they nietat
the Indian Queen Hotel. The anti-Klo'z
conference met at 2:80 and balloted fivo times
for a nominee without effecting a choice,
when au adjournment was carried until 7:30
this eveuiug. The Klotz conference also ad-
I journed without making n nomination after
electing a committee on credentials, that re
ported in favor of the admission of
the contesting delegation from Luzerne,
thus giving Luzerne a full delegation in both
conferences. At the evening session of the
I aotl Klotz conference, five more ballots were
bad without a choice, when it adjourned un.
til to-morrow morning. The Klotz confer
ence also adjourned till to-morrow without
balloting for a candidate. Overtures were
made by the Klotz body to the other confer
ence, but they were refused. There Is every
prospect of a prolonged contest, and the
nomination of two candidates is quite proba
ble.
The real dispute is about Luzerne and
I Lackawanna. There was a meeting held at
IBcranton uuder the management of Frank
lUeamisb, which elected two set', oue lor
I each county. Afterwards a general meeting
held at Uazletou, called a regular delegate
lcouveutiou,which elected three delegates for
I Luzerne. This eveuiug the Ileamish party
I balloted ten times, resulting : Kauck, 2 ;
Klotz, 1 ; Trimmer, 3 j Ilrockway, 3, and
llowland, 3.

dersllce. Mr. lluckalew spoke for an hour upon Fi
nance and Money, commencing with tho
expression of bis surprisa nt tho unhesita
ting confidence with which persons, appa
rently not well qualified to speak upon
these subject", expressed themselves roanl
Ing them, lie did not claim to bo an expert
i fin wee, nor s'rt that his opinio.is were
Infallibly true, but he chose to express
those opinions at this time.
Many disputes were mo-ely verW ; they
aroe upon the meaning of words variously
understood or usl in different senses. To
the question, What Is money ? one man will
reply that it is coin, another that is the cir
culating medium of exeh.mgn or currency
in a country, authorized by law. The
one uses the word in its primary the other
In a secondary sense, and unless this distinc
tion of meaning be preserved in debate be
tween them, confusion of thought nnd con
tradiction result.
Tho Constitution authorizes the Govern
ment nf tho Uuitod States, "to coin money,
regulate tho value thereof and of foreign
ciin, and fix tho standard of weights and
measures." It nlsa provides that "no State
shall coin money, emit bills of credit, or
make anything hut gold or silver a tender in
payment of debts." The grant to tho gen
eral government plainly was ot a power to
create coined money as a standard or test of
values, in connection with the power to fix
standard weights and measures and regulate
the relativo value of foreign coin, and as the
power was to be exclusive we have tho pro
hibition upon the States. Mr. Webster long
since pointed out the fact, that it was quite
unnecessary to extend to tho general govern
ment the rrohibition against making any
thing hit gold and silver a legal lender for
tho payment of djbts, because that govern
ment was ono only of granted powers.
The Supremo Court of tho United States
has however held, that the legal tender
greenliark notes, issued during tho war, of
which $30.000,000 nro unredeemed, were
lawfully issued. This decision was made by a
majority only of the judges and was placed
by them expressly and solely upon the war
power possessed by Congress. Virtually and
clearly it denied the power of the govern
ment to issue such notes in time of peace.
The proposition now made to issue an in
creased amount of legal tender note", how
over desirable it may be thought to be, is not
therefore practicable. Two-thirds of each
House of Congress may propose and three
fourths of the States adopt an amendment
to the Constitution authorizing them, but
many years must elapse before such an
amendment could bo secured, even if a suf
ficient amount of public opinion could be
gradually formed in its favor. It is idle then
to speak of this measure as one of immedi
ate relief, or of relief in the near future.
Doubtless the Government possesses the
power, upon fit occasion, to issue treasury
notes, and make them receivable for all gov.
eminent dues. But if not legal tender, or
presently redeemable in coin, they would
go eut,dishonored and circulate at a discount.
Uiey would be heavily mated, to the distur
bance of trade and the injury of the poor.
Great dissatisfaction exists in the country
at the past financial management of the
party in power. Loans were made or bonds
exchanged for currency notes, during the
war, ou hard terms for the public. Receiv
ing for our notes or bonds when issued, six
ty cents on the dollar, we are required to
pay them at par. And though we received
depreciated paper for the bonds we became
bound for gold interest upon them, and by
the voluntary if not gratuitous act of 1889,
to the payment of the principal in coin.
The bonds were also made free of tax, so
that those who held them would escape
from contributing to support the common
burdens of government. Hesides, the hold
ers of bonds were authorized to bank upon
them, receiving ono profit in interest upon
tho bonds and another upon the circulation
of notes furnished by the Government, the
notes of state banks being taxed out of cir
culation in their favor. These .measures,
taken together, indicate favoritism and sub
serviency to eapital, and they are insuffi
ciently sustained by tie plea that they were
necessary to float the piblit leans and main-
tain the public credit.
Misgovernment in the Soutk, since the
war, had inflicted much evil upon the coun
try. Ily reconstruction measures uud bayo
net interference, industry there had been
disorganized, production prevented aud
plunder established as tho leading princi
ple of local administration.
Public expense, upon a scale ol profii ra
cy, had been kept up in our state and gen
eral governments, and the example set by
government had been followed by cities,
towns and individuals, until the crash came
in 1S72.
Much had been done by the Democratic
IIoue of Representatives nt Washington
within the last three years to reform the
government aud improve public affairs. Ho
would mention tha reduction of the ordina
ry expenses of government eighty-eight
millions of dollars in thrro years ; the re
peal of the Ilankrunt law : the restoration
of silver as a circulating medium, and the
suspending of the cancellation nf the green-
uacx notes.
"Burn the IJouds," says tho ShrninJoah
Herald, at head of its editorial columns. Is
this tho doctrine of the new party ? Ily
wuat right can a man burn a government
bond, any more than any other bond, or ob
ligation? The right of a manor parly to
burn any species of property means thericht
to destroy or confiscate i(7 Th's is worse
than Communism of Prasce. How would
our fanners ami property holders like a lull

WASHINGTON LETTER.
Washington, D. C, Oct. 1st, 1878.
In Maine the campaign of the Republicans
was, under the direction of Blaine, an exclu
sivrlv hard money campaign. The "bloody
shirt" was not seen, except, perhaps, in one
District, and in that the Republican candidate
was beaten for the first time in 2o years. In
New York Senator Conkling has determined to
run the battle, in great part, on the "bloody
shirt" question. If the Senator does not meet
a worse defeat than Iilaine did I shall he great
ly di'apiminted. As between the two parties,
and on that question, I am sure he would he
voted out of sight. If he finds among Demo
crats a disposition to trade, he may save his
party, by that means, from utter and Ignomin
ious ruin, though he cannot, in such a way,cave
his own re-election to the Senate. The parlies
in New York are always open to trade. It was
of fie politicians of that stale that Dean Rich
niond once said, when a certain comproinisa was
sugge-tid that "the day of compromise is past
but we .ire Mill a commercial people." Sena
tor C inkling may tind some New York Demo
crats who are willing to trade commercial
Democrats but I don't believe he can find
enough of them to save liiruself or to save his
party in state affairs or in either branch of
Congre. All the indicalions now are that the
Re ublican party in New York will be badly
beaten. If the leaders of the Democratic
parly realije that the liht is between the pej
pie on the one tide and the radical party on
the other, the Kepublican parly will be beaten

Paius, September 10, 1878.
The elements of glory comprised In tho
festivities of tho Bal Mahillt do not perhaps
amount to much, but, such as they are, It
may not be out of place to enumerate them
hero for the benefit of the pott tiati, For
this is nn ngnof change. Time, the great
auctioneer, is Indefnllgablv buy in his ros
trum, nnd, well nigh without surcra'O, his
Ivory hammer, symmetrically turned from n
dead man's bone, comes In sharp contact
with the ledire nf his pulpit, as he cries "co

ethnically considered, In any way preferable
to tho old one. All the booths in Vanitv
Fair sadly knocked abontby vicissitudes of
siege ncd civil war, have been repainted
nnd re-plastered, gilt, swept and carnished :
but it would be rash hntllv In assume that
the spirits that Inhabit the rrstorid edifice
aroinanyway cleanlier than thosi which
abode iu it of old. I heard that the Jartlin
Mabille was doing a tremendous busings
and that the cancan was nocturnal ly extant
in its wildest exuberance, in tho Armlda's
garden ot the Champs Elysecs. So we made
up a party to vi.it Mabille. I put on a pair
of square toed shoes and the most moral
looking hat I could find. So as tn warn off
any Roscaniboles or Cascadettes who might
seek to tempt me to join in the mazy dance-
did not tho Heathen Alan of obi stop his
ears against the Wantons n the Sea? And
the lady of our party donned no qm than
three veils, one over the other, the last a
thick- awning of blue silk, the r fleet of which
was certainly tu prevent any one nt the Ma
bille from seeing her face.nhile nn the other
hnud, the three veils so effectually excluded
the outward atniisphere as to impel her
eventually to rai-o the triple barrier,;asping
in the throes ol senii"Ullnc.itioii, and I in
petuously to demand Iced lemonade. They
charge you one Iranc twenty-five centimes
for a glass of lemonade at Mabille. Tho
boverage in U. S. would crtninly be thought
dear at 10 cents
Happy for you ifyou make one of a par
ty at Mabille. Under these circumstnuces
you can laugh and talk and wonder that
people can be found night al'cr night to
pay a dollar for Iho pnvilrge of inpectin
this barren -limn ; but should joti bo alone
your life will be made burdensome tn you
by the incessant impor unities of t lie thous
and daughters tr tin- llnrselench all so far
as their pla-ter-d lares go, &o many whlled
sepulobies. Poor creatines Uiey do not even
gosnfarasto paint themselies. Rouge is
apparently too dear; but thev lav on the
pearl powder, the white lead, the arsenic
me puiverizeii c-iau and then, with voices
hoarse as tun, il ntaht cabmen with expo
uretothe night air nnd continuous "con
summations," they pester yon to treat them.
I shrink from surmising that they drink a
tithe of tho bv.-rages to which they are
sometimes treated. i)i. they do so thev
would surely b tipsy before shutting up
time. Impppso th-it they receive a com
mission Irom the administration, or from tho
waiters, on the refreshments which they aro
the cau-e of ordering.
'lhe dancing is a mere hollow imposture.
iMnetceu twentieths of the poor women
who come to Mabille would as soon think of
disporting themselves on the dancing plat
form as of earning nn honest livelihood
But to keep up the delusion that Mabille is
the tiivonto home of Terpsichore, the ad
ministration lure a few couples of semi-professional
dancers, tenth-rate coryphees from
the smaller theatres, habitues of the saloons
or hair dressers' apprentices of an acrobatic
turn of mind. These posture masters and
mistreses lliiig their limbs about to the
musii! of a tolertblu bind at stated intervals
during thH evening. At no pi-riod.on Tliurs-
day, did I notice in ire than live seta of pos
ture makers going through their uninterest
ing gatu'u Iocs. They danced in isolated
groups, and each group was surrounded bv a
serrie I circle of ynbemouche spectators whose
presence thus entirely destioyed the availa
bility of the platform form for General
dancing purposes. The attitudes indulged
in by the hired fandogo dancers were
outres and uncouth emugh, but they in no
way sinned against decency, unless studied
vulgarity can be considered an indelicate ex
hibition. On the whole I am inclined to
think that entertainment for which we had
paid five frances a head would be dear at
ten cents. There was pleutv of iras to be
sure, but that and the Whited Sepulchres I
can see on the boulevards any night for
nothing. The most irritatimr thini? con.
nected with the entire Moekery, Delusion,
and Snare, is, that lam morally certain that
by far the greatr portion of the patrons of
the Jardin Mabille do not pay five fiancs
if they pay anything at all for adm ission.
The Whited Sepulchres are presumably on
the tree list, and the menfolk, apart from a
multitude of of middlo-class Enirlishmen.
Americans, and Germans, are mostly com-
posed of poor little pale-faced whipper-snap
pers, tn plug hats, and slop-shon clothes.
tn any one of whom, foall seeming, it would
have been nn act of charity to eive a counle
of frances to get some supper withal. If
they paid five francs a bead, I am prepared
to renounce my nationality. It la the for-

Tho democracy of Pennsylvania unanimously de-
That the republican party, Its measures nnd Its
men, are resoonsiblo for tho naanclal distress, tho
misery and the want that now exist :
It has had control of tho legislation of tho country,
and has enacted and perpetuated a policy that has
enriched the few and ImpoterMied Iho many :
Its system of finance has been one of favor to
moneyed monopoly, f unequal taxation, of exemp
tion of classes, ot high rates ot Interest, and ot re
morseless contraction, which has destrow-d every
enterprlso that gave employment to labor.
Its present hold upon federal power was secured
by fraud, perjury and forgery. Its laws aro unjust,
and It, practices Immoral ; they dutress the peo
ple and destroy their substance.
Tho only remedy for these evils Is an entire
change of policy and Iho dethronement ot those In
power.
And tte resolve that further contraction ot the
t olumo of United states legal Umiler notes Is unwise
and unnecessary. They should be recelted for cus
toms il utlcs aud reissued as fast as recelted.

fair wages mat be tleld,-dto ititmr. uiiii.t cnfi.tvo.
Investment and moderate returns for Us use belong
