The Deniocrntlo Convention Is still
in session nt llnrrisburg ns wo go to
iircss. ltobortK. l'attison of Phllmlcl
jililii was nominated for Governor on
Wednesday evening, nml It is every
where conceded to be a strong nomina
tion. An excellent ilatfortn was ad
opted and harmony prevails.
Tlio assessment of public Bcrvnnts
for campaign expenses was tho leading
subject of discussion in both houses of
Congress yesterday. In such n discus,
siou the Democrats havo both law and
'morals altogether on their side and they
wero helped by tho lamentable fact
that scarcely a Hepublican in either
' branch had tho courage to disavow,
manfully and unequivocally, the infa
mous abiue. Thero was, of course, tho
usual lliinsy pretext of "voluntary con
tribulions, but no ono was willing to
sav that an olliciul who declined to
muko a "voluntary contribution"
would not lose his t lae'o. It is humil
iating that a form of oppression and
robbery that Would not bo tolerated in
Russia should not only find apologists'
in thu American Congress, but should
' actually bo accepted as the policy of tho
dominant paity. Wo should expect
that all save trading politicians of tho
lowest class wotdd make haste to repu
diate tho lawless insolence of the Hub'
bell and thu Coppers. Instead of that
this absolutely indofcusiblu wrong is
virtually made a party issue and tho
spoilsystem in its most offensivo form
is openly Haunted in the face of tho
public. Tho report of yesterday's Con
gressional proceedings" will form tho
best Democratic campaign document
Of the ' present year. Times, June
Tho movo which is being made by
congress toward tho reduction of in
ternal lcvcnuo taxation is not made1
willingly by the republicans, and they
can claim no credit for it. Tho demo
cratic minority have made persistent
and united efforts to force some legis
lation on this subject, but they have
been stubbornly opposed at every step
by tho republicans. The selfish repub
lican leaders care nothing for tho peo
pie so long as tho treasury is full and
their' parly is in power. The democrats
heed 'the popular -voice and they know
that tlic people favor tho reduction of
burdensome taxation, it is nil very
well for the republican newspapers to
refer sarcastically to tho "rant about
tlio workinguien's taxed shirt and taxed
shoes, taxed wool and taxed blanket,"
but there is no humorous side to this
question for tho workiugnien. He was
promised prosperous times under re
publican rule, but on tho contrary he
turns hitnselt out ot employment and
out of bread, and when ho turns to tho
party which was to bring tho blessings
of prosperity ho finds it arrayed against
tlio reduction ot tlio taxes winch take
his hard earnings from his pocket. The
democratic party in tho'strong effort it
is making in congress to compel the re
duction ot internal revenue, is showing
itself to bo the true friend of a tax-rid
den people. Patriot,
HIS PATE SEALED.
Strong appeals wero made to the
President last week, by Sir. Heed, and
tho society for tho protection of the
insane, to grant a respite to Guiteau
until next tall, so that his caso might
be taken beforo tho Supremo Court of
tho United States. A cabinet meeting
was held at which tho whole matter
was discussed, and Attorney-General
Brewster read an opinion in which he
hays a respite ought not to bo gi anted
as tho sanity of the prisoner was fully
established at tho trial. Uuiteau was
informed of this decision on Saturday
morning, and received thu intelligence
with upparent indifference. He is not
allowed to wo my ono but his guards
nnd spiritual adviser. Tho execution
will take place to-day (Friday) and but
tew spectators will be admitted.
Death of the Man who wante J to Freeze
Guiteau,
Job Harvey Ridgoway, inventor of
tho Kidgeway lU'trigerator system, and
whoso novel proportion to freeze thu
body of Guiteau nnd exhibit it for tho
attracted widespread attention some
timo since, died on Sunday at hist ro
aidctice in Philadelphia.
At tho clone of Guileau's trial, nnd
when it became a certainty that tho m-
sassin would meet tho late ot murder
ers, Jlr. Ridgoway made a pioposition
to i-iuiteau a relatives, through the ns
sassin's counsel and brother-in-law,
Georgo Scoville, to take pofs ssion
tho body after death, preserve it in his
patent refrigerating apparatus nndcx
liibit it throughout thu United Stales
and lMirope; tho understanding being
that ono-hulf of tho receipts was to be
given to Guiteau's relatives, while tho
other half wnn to bo retained by tho
inventor, in reply fecovillu stated that
tho relatives were inclined to regaid llu
prepoeitiou favorably. The extensive
publication at tho timo ot these facts.
however, quickly led to a more serious
consideration ot the preposition upon
tho part ot tho assassins lelalives, tun
finally led to its rejection. Air. Ridge
way's proposition in detail, ns described
by himself at tho time, was to tnko pos
session of tho remains after tho brain
had been removed for postmortem ex
animation, place it in ono of his patent
refrigerating cases and oxhiuit it in all
of thu principal cities in this country
and Europe. The caso designed for
tho purpose was to bo ten feet spuare,
three sides of which wero to bu of glass,
so that tho whole interior would bo
plainly visible. Tho fourth side was to
bo reserved for tho refrigerating up pa
ratus, consisting of a seiies of v-shaped
metallic troughs,extciiding fiom bide to
side in a slanting zig-zag manner, and
into which was to bo placed tho freez
ing mixture', composed cineiiy ot ice
nnd salt.
It was tho intention of Mr. Ridgoway
to havo thu caso upholstered and limsh
ed in tho most elaborate manner. In ml
dition to this ho contemplated making
an outlay of isao.uuu for tho construc
tion of ii haudsoiiio refrigerating car in
which to transport thu caso from place
to place. The enterprising inventor
calculated upon making, at the least
bv tho scheme SflOO.OOO. which amount
aceoiding to tho agreement, was to bo
equally divided between tlio relatives oi
thu assassin and himself. It Is usingu
lur coincidence and ono worthy of spo
c o nolo that tho pro ector of tins ro
POLITICAL ASSESSMENTS.
The Republican d ngrestonal com
mittee lias sent out eliculnis to every
person in tho employ of the United
states, asking tor a "voluntary contri
bution'' to tlio campaign corruption
fund, nnd tho amount that each ono is
expected to pay is designated. Tho
laborer, who Is getting two dollars li
day is nsked lor twelve dollars, ouo
week's woges, nnd nil who are reociving
salaries nreassessed two, per ceut., ,ln
Philadelphia nlouo this amounts to
more than twenty five thousand dollars.
Whilo tlio circular only requests n "vol
untary contribution", It is very well
understood that any one who does not
comply with it will bo placed oil tho
"black list' and runs tlio risk ot losing
his position. It will bo remembered
that tho Civil Servieo Refoim Associa
tion of Philadelphia has been very
diligent in its efforts to securo tho abo
lition of this custom and has taken fre
quent action in relation thereto. At a
special meeting of tho oxecutivu com
mittee November 10, 1881, a committee
of five was constituted to wait upon
tho official head of each Federal depart
ment in the city to inqulro whelher'ho
was awaro that such an assessment had
been made in the department, whether
it had his sanction and whether tho
fear which employees express of being
placed on tho black list, or otherwise
molested, for refusal to pay for or to
do political work was a well-grounded
apprehension. Tho committeo report
ed in away that substaincd tho chnrgos,
and in conclusion said, "if, therefore
n candid and manly expression of dis
approval of enforced assessments could
bo obtained from President Arthur, it
would bo in the highest degrco valuable.
If such an expression wero refused, wo
should, at all events, .know the ground
wo stand on and bo prepared to carry
on our agitation in tho most effective
way. Accordingly the oxecutivo com
mitteo mailed to tho l'rcsidcnt on
March lo, 18S2, a copy of tho report,
together with a letter nud a memorial,
in which his Attention was called to tho
custom, and ho was requested to "at
. ' 1 .1 ..! T.l 1
once ami peiuiaueiiiiy rcuuvu ruuunu
oflicc-holdcrs from all lisk ofiexioval
by reason of their not paying assess
ments levied upon them to furnish
funds for partisan usu in State or mu
nicipal elections.'' Tlio rcceipt of this
memorial was acknowledged by tho
Presidents pnvato secretary on junrcii
17, 1882. learning that tho custom
of assessments was pursued and boing
satisfied that President Arthur had
been heedless to their entreaty a second
letter was sent to him, but they receiv
ed no response. On Tuesday of last
week, at a meeting of tho executive
committee of tlio association, a minuto
was adopted setting forth that President
Arthur had in his letter ot acceptance
of the Vico Presidency and in his first
message to (Jongrcss after he had bo-
conio President atlirmcd his approval
ot aud ins intention to carry out tho
principles of civil service reform, but
having disregarded his pledges to the
nation thu association put upon record
its belief that he is accessory to the
abuses, and it called upon tho citizens
to express by voice mid vote, whenever
and whenever practicable, their deter
initiation that he be held responsible
tor tho continuance ot these abuses.
TheCivil Service Reform Association
of Now York has sent circulars to of
lice holders assessed bv this committee
warning them, that tho assessment is a
violation of law, tnd all who pay such
assessments arc liablo to prosecution,
In response to this, Mr. Hubbell, chair
man of thu committee has addressed a
letter lo the President, of tho Associa
tioii as follows
HjlHI Of ltKl'KKSENIlVm
WASlllNOTON, June 2i
Sm : I understand that n circular signed by you
has been sent to largo numbers of icrsons employed
In tho service of tho United SUtos, advising Uittn
to refrain from complying with tho request oftho
Republican congressional committeo for contrlbu.
tloiutolt8cmpalgufund. In this circular you
state that "la tho opinion ot counsel , as the mem
bers of tho Hepublican Congressional committeo
aro ortlcors of tho united States Government, all
persons making contribution to such committeo
will render themselves ltuble under section e, chap
tcr 23T, United States Statutes." It It bo the law
that poisons paying becomp ltable to a penalty, I,
being a member of Congress and tlio treasurer who
receives tho payment, am nlso liable. I am willing
to meetyouon thl-t-queutlon niiywhcro or utnny
lime, and to unite with you In reuuoaUng tho Pres
ident to ask nn opinion or the Attorney General,
ICyoudehlrunny other form or action in any trt
bunal which can give an Immediate consideration
ot tho point, I will join you In testing tho soundness
of the circular, und I invito you to this mode of
of settlement as both moro manly ami more hon-
orablo than your attempt to coufuso tho action or
alarm tho minds of tho employes alluaedto. Tho
law i.i Militated In your circular and tho alarm
you seek to create Is without Justlncatlon In tho
law. Your '-counsel," to whom you vaguely al
lude, cither misunderstands or perverts It. Dis
daining to seek shelter uehlnd any cover, I, there
fore, challengo ou to tlio steps necessary to a
Immediate determination of the degreu of respon
blblilty which is attached to this fact, und to tho
correctness of your cliuular which I distinctly
deny.
Tho law of tho country forbids such
assessments, and tho Kcpublican con
ventiou of May 10th at Hurrisburg
adopted the following resolution : lee
solved, that wo condemn compulsor
assessments for political purpose-', and
prcsciiptiou for failure to respond
either to such assessments or to ro
quests for vtiluntary contributions." Of
so much woith is their pretensions!

HIS M.AST AGAINST CAUEHOK.
Last winter our peopio wore shocked
ith tho election of J. Donald Cameron,
10 irresponsible son of a Senator of
hoin I will not speak, becauao ho and
is nets have become a part of publlo
history aud must bo measured with
more deliberation than can bo given In
casual conversation liko this a son
that has neither mind, attainments,
ilignlty of character, knowledge of pub
lic nffairs, party services or personal
worth lo warrant Ins advancement, and
who has no record but a bad one as an
intriguer and manager of bad men. IIo
was first forced Into the War Depart
ment, as the price of hit offer to bctroy
his State und renomiuato General
Grant, and after being there ho was so
base-born in his notions ot elecenoy ana
gentlehood as to solicit and urge, by
all tho mean arts of political contriv
ance, that ho should bo retained as the
companion of Cabinet oflicers and gen
tlemen who did not want him. Falling
in that, by tho coarso brute foreo ot
orgauized power ho jostled his old
father out of his place, and thrust him
self into a Senato whero ho will bo an
eibject of derision and disgust. The
public aro sick ot these odious men, ana
tho publio will tlo away with them. Wo
have destroyed human bondago in tho
South ; wo will next break down politi
cal bondago in tho North and South.
