by tho Commonwealth club, of PJiila

nil the honor that can bo heaped upon
him for ht3 mxstcrly conduct of thb

a better State Chairman.
Tho accusation against Governor
Hoyt that he had used $158,000 of the
state's money in speculation, nnd the
amount was replaced by Cameron and
his friends, was quickly hushed. Xpw
that tho election is over it would be
interesting if somebody would tell all
they know about the matter.

mn
A, POLITICAL PEAUD. .
Therois 'no more impudent and dem
aftogneical man in Congress thatj
William; D. Kelley of Philadelphia.
His flatterers style him the "Father
of tho.IIouse,'' because they say that
he is the member longest in continu
.ous service. lie is. a Republican, by
profession, wo .say by profe.mon,
for as to, principles, fie has none, having
belonged to all the, parties and. issues'
which have existed since he camo into
publio life. Everything by turns, and
nothing long, he keeps himself before
tho people liko tho clown in the1 circus,
by his ground and lofty somersaults,
at every turn coming up smiling, with
his tongue in his cheek. He has been,
in Congress since 1801, more than;
twenty years, and during all that time
has partaken to the full in all thd
schemes of plunder and rascality of
which his party has been guilty:
In 1878 lie had his lingers in Oakes1
Ames' pocket book, and dabbled in the
Credit Mobilier fraud, and in referencd
to his complicity in that schemo of cort
rnption, the New York Tribune said i
"Win. D. Kelley of Pennsylvania was;
'very much confused in his menioryj
thought at first it was a very proper;
thing for congressmen to hold,' but de-i
nied that he had any of it r -thought hej
had borrowed $1000 of Oakes Ames
which Ames, on tho contrary, isaid lie;
had paid him as dividends from Credit
Mobilier. Upon discovering that stock
actually stood in his name, changed h'w.
mind about the honesty of llic transac
tion, and turned it over to tho United,
States government."
In 1876 ho assisted his party in tliq
forgery and perjury which put Hayes
fraudulently into otlice. No word ever;
fell from his lips in favor of seating thc
man who was honestly elected. Tho;
father of tho house was willing to cheat
tho pcoplo out of their honestly elected
President, iust as ho had three years'
before surreptitiously held Credit Mo
bilier stock, and as tlio Tribune said
in a subsequent paragraph, "betrayed
tho trust ot tho people," and "deceived
their constituents."
In 1882 when tho River and Harbor
steal was put through Congress, where
was Kellev 1 Was ho in1 his seat bat
tling for tfie right 1 No 1 conveniently
absent, on a pretended pdlitical mis
sion. Again, in the language; of the
Tribune "betraying tho trust of tho
people and "deceiving his constitu
ents." Theso are but steps in the car
reer of Wm. D. Kelley, but' they show
tho course that this man has been pur
suing for twenty years. Steeped in
all tho political corruption of his party,.
lio lias sat in tlio House with a major-,
ity of his political party around him,
resolutely refusing to lighten the bur
dens of tho people, and assisting hi the
plunders ot more than S1UO,OUU,UOO,
per annum.
But light has at last broken upon
William. The scales are beginning to
Jail irom ins eyes. And Um nuim
denco of it all is that his elaqucra at
Washington nro beginning to tell us
what Judge Kelley is going to do,
Judge Kelley, who has been in Coni
gross for twenty years, is now going
to do something, btand from under !
I'm iron ivelloy m moving. Ho is
going to move against U,n Internal
Revenue system. A system that the
Democrats have condemned from tho
beginning, but which has been main
taiued by tho Republicans until now
Why does Judge Kelley move now?
"Because," says his puffing correspon
dent, "The subject has assumed inoro
importance became of the remtlt-i of
peoplo havo spoken in thunder tones.
and Kelley has heard) but ho may us
well understand that tlio Democrats
do not need his help. They will sweep
away internal taxation they will turn
out ol olllco thereby four thousand
partisan collectors they will abolish
tho tax on matches they will lessen
the tux on cigr.rs and tobacco they
will repeal tho tax on bank cheque's
thoy will stop river and harbor steals
with Kelley's scut empty.
"Becauso of tho results of tho
recent campaign " Kelley is going to
move on tho Internal Revenuo system.
Though BOinewhatilato, wo may thank
heaven that something can movo oven
pig-headed Ivelloy.

follows i - '
lut.Alr.uMHA, Nov. 18, 1882.
Mv DeaU Sin! I desire to acknow
ledge the receipt of your letter advising
ma of the resolution unanimously
passed at a meeting of tho Board of
Ollicers of tho Stato Feilclblcs Battalion
tendering tno the services of tho battal
ioh as an cocort from my home to
Harrisburg on tho occasion of tho in
aiiguration of tho Gdvernor of the
Comtnon wealth in January next. This
letter is only one of many I am daily
Tccfcivintr of similar import from various
organizations, both civil nnd military.
As I was at One time a member and
president of your battalion, it is not
improper that I select my reply to your
invitation as a method of communicat
ing ihy purpose as to tho inauguration
to all thuso organizations that have
already addressed mo on tho subject or
mgiit uo MKi'iy iu ihku ;iiij ucuuu in
tho mtittor in the future. For the per
sonal compliment intended to bo be
stowed upon me by these lrientU 1 am
nincorely gjratoflil, but must decline to
accept their kind offers, for the reason
i am about to state. 1 havo always
entertained n profound conviction that
n simplo nnd nndcmontratlve Inaugu
ration of publio ollicers was most in
accord with the ppirit of Republican
institutions. Thero is no reason that I
can see why the mere taking of an
oath by tho citizen called by the people
to execute n public trust should be
mado thd occasion for scenes of page
antry and demonstration. To my miiid
tho solcmness of tho net is marred by
tho intrusion of such needless and in
opportune display. The sooner we re
turn to simplicity nnd Democratic cooil
sense in tlicso matters the better
better for tho people and better for the
officers Besides, I nm rcsolntely de
terminqd' that, so far as I can control
tho matter, my inauguration iw Oovcr
nor shall tlot cost tho peoplo of Pcnn
sylyauia ono dollar. Why should it ?
Thoy rterls'O' no benefit from such
scenes and tho money spent thereon is
wasted. .
Theso aro ray reasons for declining
your kind offer. I trust they may mrtt
your approval.. Of oourso. the inain?u
'ratidn is a publio act and takes placq
inrthooycof the public. Thcreforo it
is the right' of snch citizens as desire to
do' so voluntarily and at their own ox
pensd to be present at and witness tho
ceremony. All such I will bo glad to
see and meet on that occasiori. Moro
than that' I-tlo not wish to inspire and
cannot 'approve.

Bogus Pensions.
A aKAKD'SllAKIXH UP EVEItYWIIKRK.
It is announced thnt Commissioner of
Ponsidns Dndley is nboat'to institute a
thorough examination into tho work of;
his predecessor, and also to have ex
amination on the pdt of all'clnims for
pensions. To get. at the work in a
systematic manner ho has sub-divided
tho State into districts aud will locate a
special agent in each district, with full
ausuoniy to inuKU sucti exuiiiiuuiiuii ,i
the caso may require. Tho agent will
make his appeal anco shortly, and the;
work of weeding out tho fraudulent pen
sioners will commence at once. Depon
dent cases will reaeive particular atten
tion, for it is in this lino that numerous
frauds have been perpetrated. Theso
cases aro called "dependent" where thq
raotheror father of a deceased soldier
are pensioners; Tho information re
ceived at the department shows that in
many cacs tho mother of tho deceased
soldiers havo drawn arrears of ponsion,
and are now" carried on the rolls at good
round figures, when their husbands aro
still living and supporting them, and
that during the war and all the time
slnoo they have been supported by their
hn3bands. In somo Jcases the parties
obtaining such pensions are property
holderi'. Tho pension law never con
templated such a, thing as prospective
support. A young man who entered
the navy at the age of twenty, serving
three years arid then dying from disease
contracted in tho array and who was
tho solo support of a widowed mother,
of an iuvalid father, sister or brother,
certainly left au heir to a pension. But
if, on tile other hand, the mother did
not become a widow until after his en
listment expired, and ho had no invalid
father, brother or sister until after his
tombstone was covered with the dust
of fifteen years, ho just as certainly left
no heir to a pension. The sending hornu,
of an occasional pittance was nothing'
more than tho act of a dutiful son.
Wounded and diseased soldiers should
bo well paid. Thoy nro entitled to all
that tho law will givo thorn, and it is
the duty of every honorably discharged
soldier and of every good citizen to aid
them iu wiping out frauds from tho
rolls.
No'Hiver.And Harbor Bill This Year.
It is reported that tho Secretary of
War will recommend that no river and
harbor bill bo passed during the ses
sion. It hns been tound to bo impossi
ble to expend the full amount of tlio
Inst bill, nnd ns the apropriation is nu
indefinite one tho money that is left
over from this bill can go right on tho
next year to tho credit of tho fund.
Tho money for improvement of tho
rivers and harbor Is not expended with
reference to tho fiscal year, but is treat
ed ns a permanent iund, upon which
drafts aro made by tho Secretary as
tho money is needed. 1' requeiitly cer
tain improvements, for which appropri
ation is made, aro not begun at all for
a year or two after tho bill is passed
by Congress, tho Secretary of War
having enure discretion in tho dneo
tiou of tho expenditure. At tho close
of the last lisoal year, for instance, nt
the time tho river and hutbor bill was
passed, thero were nearly tour millions
in tho treasury which remained from
the last appropriation lor tlieso works,
and the expenditures during the en
suing year will probably not consume
more than that sum aud about half ot
the large bill passed by Congress at
tho last session. At tlio boginmng oi
the next fiscal year thero wjll remain
unexpended in tho Treasury some
eight pr niuo minion dollars wnicu
liavu been appropriated for rivpr and
harbor improvements, Thin amount
will probably bo all Unit tho engineers
will need for the prosecution of tho
works at present under way,

A tj A TJ.U. Ouu
It difficult to see why an nttenipt
to crcatua business scare on tho tariff
question which failed in its object bo
'fofoVtho election, should be revived
again, now that tho election is passed.
Tho price of sttel ralN has been steadi
ly decining for eome time, until it has
reached $!' a ton in Chicago, and the
Scrarton company has cut dovvn to
$12 The alarming statement has becit
made that cans" of tho presont stagna
tion In tho trade is tho fear that tho Demo
cratic congress will repeal tho duty on
iron. It is strange that the result of the
election should produce such a fear, when
months before hand thero was a decline
iu tho trade, nnd many lending manu
facturers were deliberating whether to
shut down their mills, or rcduco wages.
It was but a few years ago that the
prlco of iron declined lower than ever
before and at a time too, when the
majority in Cougresj was Rcpubll
can. Was that becauso of tho foar
tint Congress would rcduco the duly,
or was it simply becauso the building,
of railroads ceased, and tho supply was
greater than the demand ' It was the
latter, nnd that is the caso now. many
leading Iron men ascribe tho present
situation to the overstocked market,
and those who talk about closing their
mills, not wishing to accumulate a sur
plus stock in tho faco of a democratic
Congress, place themselves iu a ridtgu
loaslight. Tho Harrisburg I'atriot
sn)s on tho question :
"An net which, on such a pretext,
throws a largo number of workmen
out of employment just when tho hard
ships of winter arc so near, is subjet-t
to the suspicion of having been inspired
by an intention of making political
capital for the Republican party on the
tariff question. The idea that any cor
poration would make such an effort
thus early, to the direct injury of its
own interests and the depletion of its
treasury, is absurd in the extreme. It
must be plain, therefore, that the real
cause for closing tho mills has not been
given but is concealed for somo ulteri
or and sinister purpose. It is appar
ently only tho beginning of a scheme
to raise another such business scare as
was created in the Hancock campaign,
Tho republican party should take war
ning from tlia fate of Bois Cameron,
who attempted this year to bolster him
self and his methods by a similar trick,
Pennsylvania is a tariff state and a
Hcare of that kind could be made effec
tive here if any where. But tho peo
ple at tho polls on election day most
emphatically condemned tho sham and
refused to bo again deceived by it.
The voters of tho stato would not bo
Iod astray bv any false issues but held
fcteadily to their purpose of restoring
the democratic party to power. Thry
recognized the fact that tho tariff needs
careful and judicious levision and
knew by experience that they could ex
pect no work of that kind from thu
republican party. Therefore they wil(
not bo frightened now by any bug
bear of the Hort attributed to the cor
poration in question but will calmly
await the action of ,tho next
congress in tho well grounded
belief that the tariff and federal tax
ation generally will be ao adjusted as'
to result to tlio oonelit and not, to uiq
injury of the country.

VISIONIN'TIIB CASB OF MII.AS F. OKAY.,
The Supremo Court, in an opinion
filed by Justice Paxson, refused to in-i
terferp with tho death Huntenco of Silas.
hi Urav by tho court of oyer-and ter-i
miner of Westmoreland county, for
the murder ol Jlra. JlcUready, who dis
appeared from her almost isolated log
cabin on tho Kiskiminelas river, iu
Febrnary, 1877, under circumstances
which pointed to her death by violence.
Mrs. McCready lived in her cabin with
her children, who wero iu the habit
daily of going to their school at som
distance. One day in the (mouth men
tioned, however, the little ones, upon'
their return, could find no trace of theirj
mother, who had always before been
regarded ns a home-staying woman.
Days aud weeks passed without any
thing being heard of her, and it was
finally agreed that, owing to her
straightened circumstances, she had
committed suicide. Much excitement,
however, was occasioned on the -1th of
April, 1878, over a year after the un
fortunato woman's disappearance, by
tho discovery of a human skull along
the river bank, with enough hair at
tached to it to give the impression that
it had been the head of a female. Ex
amination disclosed tho fact that tho
skull was much disfigured nud injured,
somo of tho bones being cracked. Af
ter this discovery H was believed that
Mrs. McCready had been murdered,
tho indications pointing to Silas S.
Gray, a man who had been acquainted
with tho McCready family, and who
had been heard to threaten the wo
man's life. Gray had not been long
arrested before he made a confes-ion,
setting out that ho had beaten tliu wo
man over tho head, aud had tin own
her body iu thu river near whore thu
Bknll was found. The wounds inllieted
by him, according to his own ttory,
corresponded with the maiks upon thu
skull. At tho trial of Gray tho coufes
sion was denied, but tho skull was ex
hibited to the jury and was identified
as that of Mrs. McCready by pecnliari
ties of tho teeth ami jaw bones aud by
tho few remaining hairs that wero
black and gray. It was claimed before
tho Supremo Couit that tho lower court
had been in error iu admitting certain
evidenco concerning the teeth and skull
aud of the coufession. Justice Paxsou
says that thero was no error in admit
ting testimony concerning tho confes
sion, llo therctore nmrmed tho do
ci-don of tho Westmoreland county
court, anil ordered tho record remitted
to thu lower court for tho purposo of
execution.

Aii interesting opinion has been filed
by Justico Mcicur, of tho Supremo
Court, affirming tho decision of tho
court of common pleas No. 1 of Phila
delphia in tho caso of P. 0. Hollis, trus
teo under tho will of Willinm If. Rluhards

Mrs. Burns iu September, 1877, rented
a house on JNorth f hlrteuth ftreet

left tho houso before tho expiration of

Hollis' appeal, says that tho whole
question, dfpendod upon .'whether Mr0r
Burns was a tenant by tho month or
by the year. If n lesseo enters ns a
tenant by tho year and holds over, it is
optional with the landlord cither to
treat him as a tenant from year to year,
or ns a trespasser; in caso, a tenant by
tho month holds over, it' will not b'o
claimed lh.it he Is entitled (o thrco
months' notice to quit. If a lennnt bo
by the month, a month's notice to quit
is Blillicicnt. The jury has found that
tho lotting to Mrs, Burns was by the

The Tichborne Claimant's Last Hopo.
Iu connection with the expedition to
Australia of Messrs. Charles Orton and
D. Smith, of Clerkenwcll, for tho pur
pose of identifying the luiiatic, Wil
liam Cresswoll, at present confined in
tho Paramatta asylum, near Sydney, as
Arthur Orton, an oxtrnordinrry piece
of evidence has coino to hand. It ap
pears that Mr. Smith had some consid
erable correspondence witli tho late Mr
Guilford Onslow in reference to the
proposed excdition to Australia, nnd
in a letter to Mr. Smith, written in
April last, before his death, Mr. Onsldw
savs : "I had an interview at somo con
iriJerablellenglh with SirJIenry Parkes,
U. li. il. U., in JiOiidon, who received
ma with great courtesy. He remarked
that as he had visited" both Darling
hurst and Paramatta asylums, he ho
doubt among the inmates saw Cress1.
well, whom we call Arthur Orton, but
ho never knew him by his nnmu ; nnd
that ho had never oven read tho Tioh
borne caso; so as regards Arthur Or
ton, or Cresswell, you will sec Sir Hen
ry Parkes is of no use to us in this
matter.'' After detailing at some
length his interview with Sir Henry
Parkes, Mr. Onslow thus sums the mat
ter up : "Prudence suggests that yon
or Mr. Kimbcr (the claimant's solicit
or) or a deputation should wait on Sir
Henry Parkes (who was then m this
country) witii the object of giving to
him tho necessary guarantees and no
tary public document to enable him to
send ovor the said lunatic forthwith.
by which you and Charles Orton will
be saved au expensive and useless voy
age to Sydney. Tho following ques
tons will then arise: 1. What will vou
do with Cresswell on Ins arrival 1 2.
How do you propose to meet tho well
known fact that -Mrs. Jury, aud Lady
Tichborne have shown that tho lima''
tic is not Arthur Orton 1 3. How do
you propose to securo that Cresswell's
brother in Reading will swear he is
not his brother ? Consider all these,
tilings well over before you act.'' It
was stated at the lato national Tichi
borne conference that tho convict
Thomas Castro rests tho'wholo of his
caso on the fact that the man Cresswell
is Arthur Orton.
A West Point Deficienoy,
West Point cadets arc .said to be la

Tiiis is as it 'should be, says tho Boston

nothing sd , thoroughly intimidates a
focman, and cspccinlly a wild Indian
on the plains, who shoots with a Win
chester rifle at a distance, of half a mile
or so, than to see his opponent wildly
flourishing his sabre pu 'the horizon, and
going violently through' thu diffcreut
maneuvrc! of cut arid thrust. It is
also a standing disgrace to our young
officers that not ono in five of them can
waltz with the sword on without act
ting that serviceable weapon so tau,
gled np with his legs that he is cou-

high time that our cadets were better

' WAJAMAICER'S
Visitors to Philadelphia arc
Invited to visit the store,
whether to see or to buy.
Your parcels are checked ; a
waiting-room is provided,
where you may rest with
ladies and children; guides
conduct you through the
house, or you wander at will;
there are many things of
interest to see, .and a wel-,
come. ',
For two years, perhaps, we'
have had the richest, largest,
mostvaried andmost exhaus
tive collection of dress-goods
in Philadelphia. Before that,
wc may have had the largest, i
and even the most exhaiis-1
tivc, but perhaps not the!,
richest. The slowest trade , 1
to come to a new merchant
is the trade of luxury. It is
the slowest to change from
one to another. But it does
change.
We may say our dress-,
goods-of all sorts-are at
about their highest now. i
Sceonil and third circles, toutLcost
from center.
Silks of all sorts have
come; and never were silks,
mora acceptable. And these j
words have a meaning here
beyond any they could have
elsewhere; because of the
greater variety of wants that
look to us for supply. We
must have all accepted styles, .
and all the approved quali
ties of those styles; and, as
to colors, can you think of
one that we cr.n do without?
A store that has only one
c'ass of trade can get along
with comparatively few silks.
Which stock would you
rather buy out of?
-..,....., V f .-.itr.i.eo ,
Two damask towels at 15
and 18 c-ius may serve to
show v. hat we gain by buy- '
ing. of the m;ikcrs. The very
Fame lo'.vc!s ;;ry in the whole
sale trade in New York at
about 2 1 'and 22 cents, which
means at least 25 cents at
retail.
We are not going to say
that all our retail prices are
below New York wholesale;
nothing of the sort. " More
than one swallow to make a
summer." But where such
towels are to be got for 15
cents is a good place to look
for bed and table-lineivand
all the other linens. That's
what we mean exactly; it's
true, too.
Outir ilrcle. city lir.tl'irjuarc cntrci.ee.
A very wide and surpris
ingly good navy-blue twilled

Do jott remember a 35
cent flannel for 25 a nis of
which wo had lS.oco yards
last fall? Aftorwr.rd we got
7.000 yards more of it; and
a little of it is left yet. 1 hat
is 23-inch. This wide flan
nel is fully as good as that.

All the warmer sorts of
underwear arc ready; for
men, women and children;
thick-cotton, merino, wool,
and silk. All the sorts need
ed for all sorts of people
with all sorts of notions;
and, for people who want it,
there is quite a little wit
' about underwear to be pick
ed up at the counter. Where
else would you look for it?
Not in books surely; for
goods arc changing all the
time; and so get ahead of
books,
