We approve of this action, because on the

prima facie is entitled to a scat. True, a
BepubKean Governor In this instance has on

in startling contrast to tho action of tho lie'

TUG PROTIIONUTAKY CONTEST.
Considerable Interest Is felt in this County
as to the quo viarrnto to Inquire into the
validity of Mr. Krickbaum'a title to the of
flee of Prothonotary. The preliminary bear,
log we understand took placo before Attor
ney General Lear, at HarrUburg last week,
hut time was granted to the respondent until
Thursday next. We are not Informed as to
the charges, nor are we certain aa to the con
tents of the affidavits. For thecredlt of our
County, and In ylndicatlon of Mr. Krlck-
baum we trust ho can show clean hands.
To show that Mr. Krickbatim Is not alone
in being investigated we quote the following
dispatch :
The office of Sheriff of Bucks county has
D:en a subject oicontet since the election o
November last, which it seems did not elect
Ely nor anybody else, if the lawyers and
politicians are correct The Timet haa glv
n the earlier stages of this matter, and has
waited for the developments which the pro:
ocas of law would compel. On Monday the
battle opened by an ex parte examination
i or witnesses before Mr. Mlchener. Mr.
U. Harmon testified that he went at mid
night on the Sunday preceding election to
Langbome and called upon'Mr.'Ely, eandl
date for the office of sheriff ; that he remain
ed with hia until 3 o'clock A.M., and then
drove to Doylestown ; from thence with a
fresh team drove to various points "up coun
ty." After much beating about the bush
witness admitted "putting out" certain sums'
of money, to wit : $10 at one place and $10
at another, the last being at the housejof
James W. Carver, Democratic ex-Assembly
man, for the purpose, of aiding the eleclibu
of Mr. Ely, Republican candidate. Witness
admitted that Mr. Ely was present on each
occasion. Several other witnesses were ex
mined. To-day the matter came up In
court before Judge Watson, and was argued
by George Ross, Esq., on behalf of the petl
tloners, Messrs. Yardley,and Fackenthall re-
apondingibr Mr. Ely. The point at issue
was a return to a rule served on the "two can'
didates, Messrs. Ely (Rep.) and Scott (Dem.
under the provisions of the new Constitution
The response did not meet any of the alien
tions In the petition, but simply attempted
to take advantage of minor technicalities
and clerical errors.. Mr. Hots,in an exhaus
uts resume 01 me matter, with numerous
authorities quoted, showed to the, Court that
the affair was not merely one of outposts,and
demanded, therefore, .that an examiner.be
appointed, so that the right of all parties
could be determined. It was past five o'clock
when the arguments were concluded, and
the Judge then decided to hold the matter
under advisement until Wednesday morning,
If an examiner is granted it is probable
that evidence will be produced sufficient to
justify such action ; if such process is denied
ine purpose of the contestant is to act'by
writs or quo warranto and ouster, so that th
swprn evidence of the witnesses already ex
aminea can be fairly tested.
Arrears of Pensions.
Washington, January lfl. The House

The Inauguration of Gov. nyt
A more favorable day than Tuesday, Jan
uary 21, for the Inauguration of Gen. Henry
II. Hoyt, tbe eighteenth governor of Penn-
lylvania, could not have been desired. The
day was ushered In with a clear sky and a
keen, frosty air, which was somewhat mod
erated as the sun rose above the horlton,-
At an early hour Harrlsburg was allre with
people In fact It did not enjoy a minute of
perfect quiet during the entire night of
Monday,
At 7 o'clock the streets were filled with
visitors, and thousands were astir who seem
ed to have never retired on the evening pre
vious. Many visitors sought what rest they
could In the bar rooms, settees and cbalrs at
the depots, In the cars, etc, mid some visited
places of amusement, remaining on their
feet all night. The pr hcipsl buildings were
decked with bunting and flags, etc., and the
principal hotels were adorned with state,
American and other national flags and trans
parencles, bearing the names of various vis
Itlng clubs, giving the city n gain day ap
pearance. The headquarters or Gov. Hoyt
and his stall was the Lochtel hotel, which
w.as'elaboratoly decked 'with flafci of every
description. At an early hour the Btreets
were thronged with people occupying eligi
ble positions viewing the military' as they
arrived from the early trains, or were mov
ing from their respective headquarters ready
to fall into position according to the ar
ranged programme.
FORMING OP TIIK PROCESSION.
The military and civic organizations be
gan to form at 9 o'clock, and'at that hour
there was a large influx from all the avenues
leading from the rural districts into the city,
and a corresponding number of people arri
ved by rail. -
From some cause which was not explained,
the procession was not started over the route
marked out before half past 11 o'clock.
The Fifth Regiment, commanded by Colo
nel Thomas U irclifield, was the first to form.
the military display was probably the lar-
tre t seen In the city since the inauguration
oiunv. j.traes rollocr, in 1800, and em
braced sjme of the strongest, best equipped
and moit soldierly companies in appearance
and deportment to be found 1A Pennsylva
nia. From 8 o'clock, to half past 11, when
the proceuion'moved off, the marching and
countermarching of troops and the soul-in
spiring strains of music by the bands drew
crowds of people along the sidewalks and la
eligible positions on the street corners, wit
nessing tbe brilliant and animated picture.
Ml the standing room attainable was dense
ly packed by men, ladies and children, so
that locomotion was nearly ontof tbe ques
tlon.
It was nearly 11 o'clock before Gen. Hui
dtkoper had the line in marching trim, and
directly afterward Gor. Hoy t and Gov. Hart
ran ft emerged from the Third street ontrance
of the Loch lei and stepped into a barouche
drawn by tour superb Percheroa gray stal
lions. The appearance of the governor-elect
and the retiring governor was the signal for
Immense cheering; which was kept up until
the procession moved off down Second street.
When that part of the procession in whieh
the barouche occupied a position in the vl
clnlty of Seeond and Mulberry streets, one
of tbe singletrees of the conveyance snapped
in twowhich caused a delay of 10 minutes
to repair damages, aud the crowd taking ad
vantage .of the opportunity,. rushed from tbe
sidewalks into' the middle of the street, sur
rounding the .barouche In order to indulge
in hand shaking until the damage was re
paired. The governor and heads of departments
carried very fine boqueta aad all along the
route there was a waving ot, handkerchiefs
from the windows and porticos of private
residences, and cheering at various points.
The appearance of the line was strikingly
beautiful, on account of the large number
of banners, flags, brilliant uniforms, etc
When the procession arrived at the corner
of Third and State streets the First division
formed into line on the Bouth side of State
street, facing the north.
The feecond division with the governor
elect passed. up State street to the Capitol,
the troops saluted tbe governor, the bands
performed appropriate airs and the arsenal
battery fired, the customary governor's sa
lute. The carriage containing the governor ar
rived at the capitol about 1 o'clock, and
Governor-elect Hoyt was conducted to the
grand stand, which had beeu erected at the
south front and elaborately decorated with
the national colors.

Justice G, W. Sharswood, of the Supieme
Court then administered the oath of office to
Governor Hoyt, as follows :
You, Henry M. Hoyt, do swear that you
will support, obey and defend the Constitu
tion of tbe United States, and the Conetltur
tlon of this, Commonwealth, and that you

' WASHINGTON LETTER.
Washington, P. a, Jan, 20 , 1879.
It Is not pleasant to believe that Congress,
after making such an excellent record dur
ing the first two weeks of the senslon, for the
despatch of public business, will on the
whole, do no better than Its predecessors
have done. It Is now almost certain, though
that this will be the case, Since the 7th
Inst, when reassembling after tbe holidays,
very little progress has been made with the
appropriation bills in House or Senate. In
deed, both Houses seem disposed to discuss
other matters.
Last week the Home passed bills, not of
imbortance. concerning tbe currency, and
also took action on the balance leftundlS'
tributed of the Geneva Award, The Iusur-
ance Companies, alter a good ftafit.hnve been
beaten In their eflorts to cpture a part of
that award. What is left of it will now p
to net? clashes ol claimants and as Interest
to those who have already received payment
provided the Senate piies the hill which
went thmiiuh the Hunts on Siturday. The
prevail I n opinion it, turnover, that tli
whole subject will go over for action by the
next'Congress.
The Senate, though it has done nothing In
the way of general legislation, did on Tliurs'
day pass an Important bill known as the
"Arrears of Pension Bill." I give below tho
principal section of It.
"That all pensions which have been grant-
"ed undet the general laws regulaiing pen
"sions or which may hereafter be granted
"in consequence of death from a cause which
"originated in the U. 8. service during the
"continuance of the late war of the rebellion
"or In consequence of wounds, Injuries or
"disease received or contracted in said ser
"vice during said war of the rebelli 'n. Shall
"commence, from the date ol death or dis
"charge from said servlco of tho person on
"whose account the claim has been or shall
"hereafter be granted, or from the termlna
"tlon of the right of the party having prior
"title to such pension,"
The amount involved, and which will
during the next year be distributed to per
sons now on tbe pension roll in all parts of
of the country in sums of from $300 to $3,'
000, is estimated variously at from 20 to 60
million of dollars. A largo Increase in tbe
force of the pension office will be necessary
especially ju Attorneys who really do half
the proper Uovernment work in pension
culms for arrears under this bill.
An intelligent Democratic writer of this
city, says the present fight between the ad
ministration and Senator Conkling over the
New York Custom House nominations is
simply to decide whether the votes of New
York State, in the Republican (Convention
of 1880, shall be given for Conkling or Seo
rotary Sherman. This is a too narrow view
of it. The process by which the radical par
ty bos been reduced from a majority of votes
in nearly every one of them, was tho result
In part, of quarrels among its leaders. The
mere we have of such quarrels the better,
If your correspondent controlled the Demo
vratic vote he would so throw it, there being
no question of principle involved, as to keep
live the quarrel, and let the Republican
Convention of 1880 take care of itself.

Carl Sthnrt Said to be Responsible for the
usrotrons tragedy,
By the courtesy of Manager Knight nf
the Western Union Telegraph Company tve
were placet? In early possession ol Ihencns
from Camp Robinson of the attempted es
cape and consequent universal slaughter of
tbe fugitive Cheyennes who have been so
long Imprisoned at that garrison. A brief
history of the affair is given in the telegrams
which tePl us of tho end of one of the most
barbarous and bloody tragedies to be found
lu th 3 nnnals of any country pretending to
be Christian and civilized. The opening
chapter of Its history have been too fre
quently given in tho Herald to require rep!-
tition here. Tbo end of thf monstrous
wrongs upon the Indians was foreseen and
predicted, from the day these Cheyennes
were captured, by meu who knew their des
perate situation. 1c was kmiwii that they
never would go back to fiice death by starva
tlon and disease In the Indian Territory,
from Hhlch they had been driven by the
controlling Instinct of self preservation.
They declared they would die before tbey
would return, and, indeed, their surrender,
when overtaken by our troopt, wns secured
to prevent their extermination upon us much
of a promise- as the gallant officer command
log the forces that captured them had tbe
power to give, viz: that he would dn what
he could to permit themto remain in their
own country. Every fact was luld before
the Hon. Carl Schurz. He was told and
repeatedly told that these Cheyennes could
only be taken back to the Indian Territory
by betug bound hand and foot anil urajrged
there aa eo many dead cattle In wagons.
That exalted functionary was linp'nred to
listen to tbe voice of humanity and provide
for them in the land of their father The
writer of this article personally knows that
Mr. Schurz was plied with both warning
and appeal for humanity and justice to tlie-e
wronged and outraged remains ot a helpless
people.
But it was nl! vain. The Cheyennes must
go back to the graveyard prepared for them
in the Indian Territory. The order wns out
for their enforced return, and knowledito of
it reached the eager ears of the doomed In
dians. It drove' them to despair. A mid
winter march, that of the Ogallalas to the
Missouri repeated, with sufferings indescrl
bable en route, and certain death at the end
of it, from Camp Robinson to the Indian
Territory, was before tbcra. True to their
heroic nature, they ajted upon their Bolemn
resolutions to perish rather than submit to
the slower tortures of tho most monstrous
and infamous of all rales by which tbe strong
ever oppressed tbe weak. The result is be
fore us. Wholesale murder is a mild phrase
in which to describe the atrocious tragedy.
"None will escapo," say tho dispatches.
Thank God tor that I Jt is a mercy to kill tie
last Cheyenne : and let Carl Schurx have the
whole glory of it. He invited tho slaughter,
and it has come a red and burning shamo up
on our country. Let tho Secretary of tho In
terior contemplate the bloody fruit of his in
difference to the demands of humanity and
justice as he puts the last touches upon his le
joinder to Sheridan, and let the country see
by the light of the long tragedy that ended in
the wholesale slaughter at CsmD Robinson
what a beautiful thing it is to have an Indian
Bureau in this couutry. O naho Herald,

The first thing that General.. Logan did
after his nomination for the Senate from
Illinois was to clear his throat and make one
of those old-fashioned,thorough going party
speeches. It contained a great deal about
the glorious past of the Republican party,
but no reference to the time when be swore
that he would sooner die iu his tracks than
surrender to Black Republicanism, and when
he preached tbe hounding of fugttiveslaves
as the only means of saving the Union from
tbe traitorous designs of the Abolitionists.
He rejoiced that the time of his long-expect
ed vindication bad come, but uttered no
word to show whether that vindication was
in his opinion, intended to cover the whisky-
ring business and salary-grabbing which bad
so much to do with his retirement to private
life. It is fair to presume, however, that
the Republicans in the Illinois Legislature
who gave him such an overwhelming ma
jority intended to condone all his offenses
and set him before the American people
once more as the flower and glory of Illinois
statesmanship. If Illinois is satisfied, per
haps the rest -of the world ought not to
grumble. Phila, Timet.

James McCorniick, a millionaire bank Pros
iilcntin lllarrisburg. Pa , teaches a remarka
bin Bible cla. Thoro aro 30) members of
whom he tnys : There arc moo in this class
who are by no means Chistians, men who aro
not even reformed. One of tho worst gam
blers In thi' city is a r'gular attendant. Ho
is a bad man and conl'ci-es it, but there sa
spark of goodness in his heart which, somo
day, may be funned into a flame.'
One Hundred and Three. If Mrs,
Julia Roberts, of Washington Avenue, Pha
nixville, lives until Weduesday, tho 29th
day of January, she will be ono hundred and
three years of age. She is a rematkablo old
lady, with;buoynnt spirits, and still possesses
tbe keen appreciation of fun' peculiar to her
race. Upon her one hundredth birthday she
held a levee, which has been annually repeat
ed., and wo presume upon its recurrence
this year there will be no exception to the
rule then established.
Tho rumor that two men had been burned
alive by revengeful enemies in Nebraska, is
verified by later investigation. The origin
of the trouble was a quarrel between the oo
cupants of neighboring ranches. A fight en
sued in which Mitchell and Ketchum killed
Olive'. A Sheriff arrested tho two homicides
in an adjoining county, but their conviction of
any crime was improbablo, astfrey had acted
in self defence. Olivo's brother offered
11,000 reward for the return of the prisoners
to tho county In which they lived, and the
Sheriff accepted thd offer. Olive's object
was to get them in his power. He and the
Sheriff, with the victims securely bound, start
ed ostensibly for a place called Plum Creek
A can of coal oil was taken along. On the
fo'lowing day the charred bodies of Mitchell
and Ketchum wero found where they had
been tied to a stake and tortured. The oil
had been smeared over them and then igni
ted. Olive is under arrest, bnt the Sheriff
escaped.
"The Public Ledger Almanac" for the cur
rent year, as usual, is full of useful intbrma
tion. The brief "Philadelphia Chronology1
for tho post year admirably serves tho pur
pose of indexing the important events of tho
period, and renders reference to them cosy
Of tho original matter, a most notablo and
important paper is presented under the title,
"Changes in the Names of Streams in and
about Philadelphia" a conoise description of
all water-courses laid down on the early maps
of tho city. This work is wrought carefully
and faithfully, and is as interesting to the an
tiquory aa it is, on purely sanitary grounds
to tho citizen. The Almanao contains the
usual religious and governmental information.
tables of home and foreign postage, and so
forth, and is as Mr. Childs very properly ob
serves in his preface "a home book of rcf
erence and a treasury of useful information -on
local and general subjects and events."
' Dr. D'TJnger'a cinohona rubra treatment for
drunkenness is ridiculed by Dr. Earle, the
physician of the Chicago Home for Inebriates,
who thinks that the method of that institu
tion is the best in use. The patient suffering
from alcoholism is first bathed and then put
to bed. Liquid nonrishmont only is given
him. If he is excessively nervous, oris suf-
luring irom cereDrai aoection, he is given
nerve sedatives, like the bromides or extract
of valerian. If he has been for a long time
without sleep exospt when drunk.it is deemed
essential that bo should have a long sleep on
his first night in the Home, and in a majority
of cases that is brought about by doses of hr
drate of chloral On the seeond day, if the
nervousness ia followed by depression, out-
nine and ammonia are given, but no aleoholio
stimulant. Usually he is able to leave tbehos
pital department on the third day, Thcrcaf
ter during his stay ho lives on ordinary diet,
Dr. Earle ciphers out the proportionate causes
of drunkenness as follows : "Associations
with drinking companions, 40 per cent : so
eiability,10 per cent; trouble of various kinds,
either in business or in family, 10 per cent;
me custom oi unnaing in amines i per
cent; and tbe other causes which go to make
up the remainder are different kinds of busi
nesfl which bring a person in oontaot with
alcohol, such as liquor traffio, hotel l-asiness,
Ac,, mental depression and active brain work,
army and .navy association, and other rea
sons.
