CAMKKOS'S CONVENTION.
The llepubltcan State Convention was
held at tlatrlsbtirg on Wednesday of last
week, and as predicted, the complete Camer
on programme was put through, A number
of anti-Urant men went there, but they were
not strong enough to overcome the Influence
of the man who whips In the Ilepubllcan
party In this State to do bis bidding, Don
Cameron held tljla convention for the pur
poso of pending a Grant delegation to
Chicago, and notwithstanding there was a
strong opposition he carried his point, and a
majority of twenty decided that the delega
tion should vote for Orant as a unit, after
the following resolution had been voted
down.
J'esolie d, That, while we pledge ourselves
to support tho nomination of the republican
party, weseo no good reason for abandoning
the position taken by the party In our own
and other states in 1S7C of opposition to a
till ril presidential term, and wo hereby in
dorse and reaffirm the resolutions passed by
our own state convention held in this city In
180, upon Ibis question.
This action of the convention dees not
represent the sentiment of their party
throughout the state. It Is evident that the
popular feeling is for III nine, and the ex
presslons of opinion from the republican or
gans that dare open their mouths In op
position to the schemes of the Caraerons
have clearly shown that the victory of Cam
eron Is by no means a victory for Grant.
The Philadelphia Press says : "This con
vcnlion, called to make Grant the next
.Republican candidate for president, has un
made him as such ; it was Intended to pro
mote his interests, but it has overthrown
them ; intended to be made the means of
stilling the popular will, but It has become
the voice of the people j Intended to build
up the varied schemes which it was called to
consolidate, but it has swept them with a
besom of destruftion, and strewed with
wrecks the scene of its meetings. The con
test was a fierce one.and the anti-Grant lead
ers deserve great praise for the courage, skill
and tho effect with which they waged it.
The few timid men among them were quick'
ly sent to the rear. Bolder spirit took their
places. Plausible suggestions, which were
cunningly made, but which gave away their
whole case, were scouted, and a policy en
tered upon which was intended to asset
their parliamentary rights and to force to
the severe test of a yea-and-nay vote the
threatened indorsement of the "third term."
A few men fell by the way,who were tripped
by temptations, caught by power or decoyed
by blandishment. Powerful influences
brought to bear during last Tuesday detach
ed several men from their instructions ; but
alt did not avail to stem or turn the current
which carried the convention fiercely for
ward to its work, and ail observant politic
ians admit that the Grant movement has
met Us Waterloo."
Even republicans are getting tired of the
one man power in this state, and the deter
ruination of Cameron to ride over the clear
ly understood public sentiment, will,
Grant shall ba the nominee of the National
Convention, be one of the greatest helps to
the Democracy In overthrowing the party of
fraud. .
The nominees on the stato ticket arc John
A. Lemon of Blair county for Auditor Gen
eral, and Henry Green of Easton for Su
preme Judge.
A Blaine rebellion is threatened in Ches
ter County. A large meeting was held at
West Chester last Saturday, at which the
chairmanof the republican county committee
presided, and strong speeches were made i
favor of repudiating the action of the Stat
convention in adopting the unit rule and
instructing for Grant, The following reso
lution was adopted :
That a committee of five be annointed bv
the chairman of this meetlne to confer witli
the republicans of otbercounties in the state
upon the propriety ot calling a state con
yention to take such action as will insure
a lair and honest vote of the Pennsylvania
ueiegation in tno umcago convention.
Cameron will have to go down there with
his little whip and lash these obstinate peo
ple into obedience.
Two or three hundred very respectable re
publican of Philadelphia published a man
ifesto in which they implored thedelegates to
the state convention not to Instruct in favor
of the nomination of a man "who regards
tne skilful useof patronage for personal end
as the highest function of a statesman
whose past inability to resist temptation
would put his supporters ou the defensive
and whose personal ambition leads him to
regard the public service as a more instru
mentality for furthering his own ends." And
yet we are told In the same manifesto, that
the republican party, which twice made this
man president, "represents In great part the
intelligence, the conscience, and the thrift
of the American people." Faugh I Phila,
Chronicle.
There is likely to he some queer results in
the election of Directors for Bloom Poor
District. There are two republican candid
utes.inthe field. William Krtaraer and
Jacob Terwllllger are the Democratic can
didates. Each voter may distribute his votes
among the candidates as he pleases, or may
bestow three votes on one candidate, or one
and a half to each of two. The candidates
highest in vote will be elected.
It the Democratic party ever expect to get
power again it must learn a few things from
the opposition. Itepubllcans have their
leaders, whom they acknowledge as such, and
follow them. This leads to perfect organiz
ation, and victory is the result. There ii too
much fighting among onr captains, and hence
too little confidence in them by the rank
and file.
The New Constitution of California abot
ishes the grandjuries, and partially does
away with the trials by jury. The man on
trial may elect whether his case shall go b(
fore a magistrate or jury, and be may agree
that a jury shall consist of only ten, or
eight, or seven or six persons. This mater
ially reduces the chances of the obstinate
juror.
Adolpb Boiie, ex-Secretary of the navy,
died last week on Thursday at his home in
Philadelphia, in tho 71st year of his ago.
He had been in ill health for a long tiinc,and
his death is attributed to a general breaking
down of the system.
Brains are so scarce in the Republican
party that they can find but one man fit for
the Presidency, and so want to put him In
for a third term, ,
The Daly of Hie Political Parties.
FROM AN UNB10NF.il TArEIt IN THE MtD
WINTER Scribner ON "THE POLITICAL
OUTLOOK," WE TAKE THIS PIECE OP
PLAIN TALK TO POLITICIANS.
We have got to a stage In the new period
of national politics in which one party or
tho other must take a forward step, and
everybody to whom politics Is n serious
business, and not merely a machine for the
redistribution of offices at stated Intervals,
Is Interested in tho highest degree both In
compelling that step and in deciding in
which direction it shall be taken, The duty
of taking It rests as much on one sldo as on
ho other. It is true that the party In power
only can take the initiative in all matters of
legislation, but the duty of the opposition
is something no re than criticism. It is
bound, whenever, it objects, to say what it
would, If it could, do lustead of tho thing It
objects to. It Is bound to give the country
some better reason for putting It In posses
sion of the government than the bud man
agement of thoso who actually hold the gov
ernment. A capacity for judging by no
means argues a capacity lor doing j and po
litical criticism differs from literary or
artistic criticism, In that tho critic Is bound
to describe the kind of work he would pro
duce in place of what he condemns, if the
opportunity were afforded him; and not only
thiSjbutofler to producolt. It Is only by taking
this position that any opposition can make
Itself respectable, or play any Useful part In
politics, or earn any title to public confi
dence. It cannot rely simply on tho fail
ures and short-comings of the other side.
It must have a programme, and submit It
frequently for popular approval,
The samo thing Is true, mutatis mutandis,
of the party in power. It cannot rely on the
assertion that it is more patriotic, or more
moral, or more religious, or more upright in
any way than those who seek to supplant It
It is only a very small part of the duty of
men In office to set an example of virtue in
handling money or dispensing justice. Nor
is n party, like n church, a depository of set
tled doctrines or a cultivator of private mor
als. It Is an organization for the transaction
of business. Its function, when in power,!-
not simply to prevent murder and robbery,
and collect the revenue honestly, but to make
incessant improvements, both in legislation
and administration, so as not only to increase
their efficiency ,but to adapt them to the ever
changing needs and conditions of a pro
gressive society. No party can in our time,
thereforejustlfy its retention of power by the
simple plea that something very unpleasant
would happen if it went out of ofllce, owing
to the moral inferiority of those who would
probably take its place. The Turkish gov
ernment is now the only one in the Western
world which rives this as its raison
d'etre.
Democrats and Republicans have success
fully protected themselves for ten years or
more against the demand that they should
move on, by the plea that they were either
getting rid of "the results of the war," or
saving "the results of the war," or in some
manuer dealing with the results of the war.
In whatever shape the pica was produced,
it furnished a teason for looking back and
not forward.for standing still and not march
ing onward. Whatever justification it may
have been heretofore possible to find for this
attitude, it is quite certain that all dealing
with the results of the war which is possible
through legislation has been exhausted
There remains not a single problem arising
out of the war, except the disposition of the
legal tender notes of the government, which
is not now largely or wholly economical In
its character, and is certain to be solved, if
soluble, by the ordinary movements of trade
and population, and by the ordinary social
agencies of a commercial civilization.
Mr. ScliDTzand the Utes.
When Mr. Schurz cuts off the food sup
ply of a tribe of Indians because a few of
their number have been guilty of horrid
crimes and have not been caught and banded
over to him for puuishment, he tortures the
innocent as well as the guilty.
We may safely say that the innocent are
the greater sufferers. Old men, women and
children, who are not even suspected of any
part in the Meeker butchery, are denied ra
tions in mid-winter, when the snow is six or
eight feet deep in their country, and when,
of course, they can get nothing to eat.
Hunger is horrible torture. It is an in-
fernal punishment, justifiable only as a last
resort in the most desperate cases. To say
to tho White river Utes, as Mr. Schurz baa
said. "You shall have no rations until the
murderers are surrendered,"was simply say
ing to a largo number of innocent people
that they must starve to death because
tbey would not perform an Impossible
thing
It has been demonstrated beyond possible
doubt that the White river Utes were very
badly treated before the recent outbreak
We do not propose to excuse or palliate the
murder of Meeker and his associates. The
Indians must be taught that grievances,
however serious, are not to be redressed by
such means. The authors of that crime
should bo outlawed, a price put on their
heads, and no effort should hi spared to In
sure their destruction.
But the Government cannot deal with
this tribe as with Indians who are unfriendly
or hostile without any cause. The Indian
Bureau had violated treaty stipulations in
the most important particulars. It did not
send the supplies of the farm tools due un
der the treaty. General Fik testifies that
the neglect of the Bureau forced the Utes to
travel 175 miles, to Rawlings, for food, and
the flour needed at White river stayed at
Uawllngs until it rotted. As long ago as
1877 tho predecessor of Meeker reported to
the Indian department that:
"The annuities and supplies furnished
these Indians amount to, at a liberal esti
mate, not over one half that required for
their support, oue of the annuity goods
and but part of their supplies have reached
this agency during the year. Goods pur
chased iu August last year have been lying
at the railroad depot, 17S miles away, since
November last, a period of over nine months.
Flour purchased the 1st of June is still at
Raw lings; no clothing, blankets, Implements
or utensils of any kind have been issued at
this agency for nearly two years : no flour,
except once, flfteeu pounds to a faniily.since
last May."
Jn faco ot all these lacts,in fHce of the gros
sest violations ot contract on tho part of tho
Government the Utes havlug long since
fulfilled their part Mr. Schurz proposes to
starve men, women and children unless they
will capture and deliver up to certain death
twelve of their warriors. So long as this
sort of criminal folly is persisted in there
can be no peace Washington J'ott.
-A Chicago man was told, when he re
gistered at a Council Bluffs hotel, that his
wife was already there. He said there must
be a mistake, as he had left her at homo a
few days before, and she had uot said any
thing about a journey j but the clerk insist
ed that he knew her, and that she was in
the house. The fact was that she bad
eloped.

Mr. Editor, here Is a lllblo riddle picas
give this room In your paper.
Ho is not Ivuali, nor Noah's son,nor n In
vito nor John tho Baptist, nor yet the Wan-
doting Jew, for he was with Noah in tho
Ark ; the scriptures make mention of him,
particularly in St. Mark, St. Luke and St,
John,sc that hois uo Imposler, Ho knows no
parents, he never lay upon on his mothers
breast ; hts beard Is such as no man ever
wore ; ho goes bare-footed and bare-legged,
like a grave old friar. Ho wears no hat in
summer or winter, but often appears with a
crown upon his head. His coat is neither
knit nor spun, nor hair, Bilk, linen, or wool
en, bark, nor sheepskin, yet It abounds with
a variety of colors, and fits close to his skin,
Ho Is wonderfully temperate J he never
drinks anything but cold water, he would
rather take his dinner In a farmyard than in
a King's palace. He is very watchful, was
never caught iu bed, but sits in a singular
kind of chair, with all his clothes on. He
was alive at the crucifixion. Nearly all the
world hear him. He mice preached a short
sermon which convinced a man of his sin
and caused hlai to weep bitterly, Ho never
was married, yet has his favorites whom he
loves dearly, for If ho has hut one morsel of
meat he divides it among them, Though
he never rides on horseback he Is In somo
respects equlped as horsemen are. He Is an
advocate of early rising, though lie never
retires to bed. His prophecies are so true
that the moment you hear his voice you may
know what is approaching. Now, who Is this
prophet and what did he foretell?

The Exodus A I'olltlcul Uoilje.
The Congressional Committee, now in
vestigating the cause of the negro exodus
from the South, are arriving at the true in
wardness of the black stampede. Among
the witnesses was Charles L. Otuy, colored,
a native of North Carolina, editor of the
Washington Argus, and principal of th
Howard University. He testified that he
was one of the founders of the National
Emigrant Aid society ,having himself drawn
up its constitution. Its object was to furnish
aid to colored people fleeing from oppression
such as the destitute crowds then accumula
ting at St. Louis on their way to Kansas
from Mississippi and Louisiana. At one of
the first meetings, however a Mr Menclen
hall made a speech suggesting that it would
be advisable t divert the emigrants from
their object point (Kansas) and 'Vend about
five thousand into Indiana, as that was a
doubtful State in tho coming election."
Mr. Otuy testified that no one objected to
this suggestion at the time except himself.
He continued :
I felt that we bad been used long enough
as tools. I knew the former use, of us had
not redounded to our advantage. In the
South, as one man, we had voted the Re
publican ticket, and our reward was buck
shot from tl.cku-klux and uoprotcc'ion from
the national government. We had placed
Mr. Hayes in the White Houtc.and as soon
n lie took his seat he withdrew Iroin us all
the protection we ever had. Hence I was op
posed to the longer use of my people by any
political party, and as soou as I saw tho ex
odus was to be used politically, I withdrew
from the society. There were others in the
society who afterwards expressed the same
sentiments, but they remained in the organ
iz-uion. The witness argued with his friends
iu the society that in Kansas the colored
emigrants might acquire homesteads; in
Indiana and Ohio they could not. To the
first named Slate they had received an in
vllation, but to the last two named they
had not been invited, He next informed
the committee that when the exodus from
North Carolina first begun he addressed let
ters to the most prominent colored men in the
State, asking what rained this uprising.
All answered that there was no cause for it;
that the more ignorant were deluded by
three men named Perry, Villiams,and Tay
lor, who had been North and returned with
such glowing news that the people conld uot
resist them. An investigation revealed tho
fact that these men had been among the
most ignorant country people and had told
them that tho Unlttd Slates government
wanted them to go to Indiana, aud would
give them money to legin with ; that they
would receive one dollar ami a half per day
during the winter and from two to two and
a halt dollars during the spring,summer,and
full, Some who hesitated were told that
they would receive new suits of cbthes at
Washington, These men registered the
names of tbo-e consenting to go charging
them from twenty-five cents to two dollars,
according to their ubilily to ja".

The Invention n( somo method by which tho ordlnxry washing tor families, holds, and public ln-dllutlons
could I successfully performed w Itnout the exhausting labor and tne ruinous wear and tear or garments
Involved In the old method of the wash board, and the later proceis of pounding, squeezing, nnif dashing
t y life out of the fabrics, has long been a public desideratum s and Impressed with tho irreat necessity
tint existed for n simple machine that would cli nnse soiled linen w ithout tho destructive agency ot fric
tion, and with the least posslblo ph) steal exertion, wc were led to Invent tno Model Washer.
It was of vital Importance that the method Invoked should be ot tho simplest nature, In order tint It
might bo successfully employed by the most unskilled persons, because othcrwLso Its usefulness must bo
necessarily limited.
And It was, at the samo time, essential to the popularity of such an Invention that It should bo sold at a
price that would place it within thu reach of every family In tho land.
It affords us sincere gratification to bo able to announce that wo have succeeded In placing In the market
a washing machine so slmplo In Its mechanism that a child may uso II, bo durable that It cannot wear out,
bo cheap thai, tho poorest may purchaso It, so economical that no family cau afford to bo without It, and so
effective that it Is a pleasure to use It,
WHAT IT IS.
The Model Washer Is a small portablo machine, weighing about six pounds, and can bo Used In nny ordi
nary family wash boiler. It Is composed wholly of galvanized Iron, zinc and brass, and benco ono of Its
prominent qualities Is durableness : and from the nature of the material entering Into lis construction, ninl
the Blmnllclty ot Its ratchanlsm. it fs Impossible to get It out of order by use. Iu form It Is a circular base,
with n diameter of .Inches nnd a depth of n. Inches. In ho centre of this base Is Inserted a horizontal
tube, called tho discharge pipe, which 114 Inches high, 1 Inches In diameter, and capable, when In full
operation ot throwlngout 15 gallor.sot walerpcr mlnuto. Within tho base, which Is hollow. Is locateda
succession of tortuous passage, so arranged that, by a well-known principle ot hidraullcs. tho hot water
In tho boiler Is rapidly sucked up an-1 continual- forced from the bottom to the surface of tho boiler
through tho discharge pipe. Tho utwvo cut shows how tho washer should -et In boiler.
In simple language, by the ois-rallon of the machine all the watur within the boiler Is drawn bv the Irre
sistible furco of suct'on through the soiled linen, until all tho dirt Is removed from It, leaving tlio articles
after rlnlsng, thoroughly cleansed and nurlned.
The alrcnamb'r, an entirely new nnd orlilnal device, Invented, patented and exclusively used bv us Is a
special feature ottho Model Washer, and an Invaluable adjunct to suction washers, by reason ot the pow
erful additional force with which It drives tho water through tho fabrics of tho goods, causing It to search
out and eradicate every atom of dirt that lurks within them.
WHAT IT DOES.
It Is not as w ell understood as It should be. that the energetic ar lion of boiling vvaler containing n small
per rentage of alk ill (In the form of common soap) .itlords the onlr errccltvo means ot rernuv trig illrt from
cotton ano llneu goods. It has long been erroneously assumed that nothing shoit ot violent frlctlo-i pro
iliieed by haul rubbing In a strong solution of alkali was capable of cleansing cotton cloth. Tho fact Is
lhat the cleansing process consists, not In rubbing thegoods. but In forcing the water repeatedly thro-igh
thomortor the alkali has loosed the dirt In thm. The washer-woman otiko twist tolled hard io do Just
what tho Model v asher does without effert. viz : force tho soapsuds through tlio articles lu the vvashliib,
but with this difference, that she forced tho water roughly throw.li them by laborious effort, with the aid
".'"i" dashboard, while the Model Washer gently Infuses the water through and through them, without
the least Impairing their value.
Tho Model Washer Is especially valuable, If not Indeed Indispensable, for washing all kinds ot fragllo fab
rics, such as laces, ace curtains, line law ns, cambrics, Ac, which are ot loo lino a tejuuro to bo successful
ly subjected to tli-j harsh treatment ot the washboard. As all housekeepers ore aware, It has hitherto
been an expensive luxury 'to cleanse lace curtains ns It could only be done without Injury by adepts, w hose
secret skill enabled them to charge exorbitant prices for their work. Happily, however, the Model Washer
hnsentlrely -revolutionized this Btato of things, and mado It practicable for cverv family to perform the
most delicate laundry work with tho samo laclllty with which they accomplish tho ordinary washing of
the household. "
Hie ModeiWasher leaves no longer nny excuse for 5 ellow and discolored clothes, which nro so often a
serious annoyance to families, and w hlcli usually proceeds from careless washing, and the use ot water of
too low n temperature. In washing with the washboard, of course the hands must be plunged In tho wa
ter, and to render this possible, tho water must bo reduced to a leraperaturo which tho hands can bear:
w hereas these machines, being composed or metal, retain the bent, nnd do their work best In boiling suds!
and only boiled suds foiced through soiled linen vviil thoroughly cleanse and Impart to It the puro whlto

by the beneficent aid of our Model v asher a young child or a feeble Invalid can do tho washing for a larro
family, In a short time, without fatigue. No rubbing whatever Is required Tho clothes are placed In the
