adelphia to fill tho vnciinoy cruised by

Tho Democratic Stato committco met
at Harrisburg last week, Wednesday.
April 9th was fixed as tho dato for
holding tho Stato convention, aud Al
lentown was choson as tho place. W.
U. Ilonael was unanimously re-elected
chairman.
The following executive committco
was elected : W. F. Harrity, of Philn
delphia t It. P. Allen, of Williamsport;
II. E. Packer, of Mauch Chunk j 15. F.
Meyers, of Harrisburg ; V. J. Uron
nan, of Pittsburg ; Richard Coulter, of
Westmoreland, and E. A. Uioler, of
Clearfield.
Political party organizations wcro
originally intended for tho benefit of
all the people. Modern methods havo
rnado them simply tho tools of design
ing politicians, and there can bo no ro
form until tho people shall again as
sumo control of pnblio affairs and, by
their action at tho polls, condemn tho
practices of tho latter day statesmen.
It is generally believed that tho poli
tics of this county need purification,
and if this bo true, tho remedy is in
tho hands of tho people. A rigid en
forcement of the rules of tho Demo
cratio party, and a strict observance of
the laws governing elections and con
ventions is nil that is necessary.
There have been somo rumors that
another extra session of tho Legislature
will soon bo called by Governor Patti
oon to make an apportionment of the
state, so that thero may bo no danger
of losing our representation in Con
gress. There is no reaseu to believe
that the Governor contemplates any
such action, but if ho docs ho had bet
ter think twice, and then think again,
before carrying out his intentions.
Thero is no more prospect of tho re
publican Senato agreeing to a fair ap
portionment now than thero was a year
ago, and if the republican party of this
Stale can stand being unrepresented
in Congress, tho democrats might try
to worry through somehow.
Ex-Speaker Kief or ought to be hap
py now. Fearing that ho might sink
into oblivion ho has lately mado him
self tho object of two congressional
investigating committees. In one in
stance ho is charged with having de
manded the resignation of a IIouso
stenographer immediately at tho close
of the session of which ho was tho al
leged speaker, to make room for his
nephew who was not a stenographer,
but who drew the pay during tho re
cess when thero was nothing to do.
His only defense for this action is that
it was a bargain made beforehand. On
Tuesday another committco was nn-
Eointed to investigate the charge mado
y Kiefer that II. V. Boynton, a cor
respondent, approached him with a
bribo iorhin influence on the SIcGar
raheu ease. Boynton says that Kiefer's
whoiu htory is a stupendous lie, and it
was at the suggestion of Boynton that
tho committco was appointed. Kiefer
is growing to bo the Great American
Pnblio Nuisance. He does not seem
to havo any friends left even in his owu
party.
Tho republicans of Philadelphia havo
blundered by making nominations for
city officers that do not meet with tho
approval of citizens of any party who
favor reform. Pierie, tho best man on
their ticket, withdrew, and tho conven
tion was reconvened and John Hunter
who ought to havo beeu nominated by
the first convention, was put in his
Btead. A few days later the demo
crats of tho city nominated King for
Mayor Hunter for tax receiver, and
Shcppard for Solicitor, and the com
mittee of one hundred has unqualified
ly endorsed their action. Ol courso
Hunter will bo elected, having no op
position, and it is almost equally as
certain that tho others on tho demo
cratic ticket will bo elected. Phila
delphia with her twenty thousand re
publican majority has found it neces
Bary to elect a democratic Mayor and a
" democratic controller in order to free
her from tho corrupt rulo cf republican
bosses, and Pennsylvania, with about
tho same majority, has been compelled
to elect a Democratic Governor for tho
samo reason. Can such things be, and
still leave any doubt as to which party
is tho party of reform t Tho United
States will follow suit this year by tho
election of a democratic President. Re
form is tho issuo of tho present day,
and tho Republican party cannot avoid
it by tho cry of "Tariff."
Senator Sherman lias introduced the
"bloody Bhirt" into tho coming cam
paign, by offering a resolution in tliu
Senate, providing for an investigation
of tho alleged outrages at elections in
Virginia and Mississippi. Tho Demo
cratic senators held a caucus for tho
purpose of deciding upon a policy with
referenco to this resolution.
After a full and general expression
of opinion, it was decided that tho
party action should be governed by
circumstances when the Sherman reso
lution should corao up for consideration.
That resolution merely alleged that
outrages had been committed and
voters Intimidated by criminal violenco
at elections in two of tho southern
states. If tho Republican seuators in
their remarks upon tho resolution should
treat tho alleged outrages as ascertain
ed and proved facts, should refer to
specific acts of violence and intimida
tion, and should attempt to charge tho
Democratic party with responsibility
for such nets, it would, in tho opinion
of the caucus, bo proper and expedient
for tho Democratic senators to accept
tho issuo aud enter actively into tho
debate, shaping their courso in ac
cordance with tho drift of tho discus
sion. This it was concceded would pro
bably lead to a heated political contro
versy. If, liowover, the Republican
senators should not directly force this
issue, If llioy should confine themselves
to general allegations of local disorder
and violence, and not assert that the
Democratic party fontered and encour
aged tho spirit which gnvo iiso to sueli
disturbances, It was decided to let the
Republicans have tho debate mainly to
themselves.
Randall on the Tariff.
A Washington disinlch says :
Ex-Six-akcr Randall has evidently
determined upon his lino of action on
tho tariff question. In consultation
with his friends ho has declared his
purposo to maintain a position of armed
neutrality until tho tariff reformers
commit soinu overt net in their so-called
tariff iff (inn schemes, and then ho
will so marshal his iorccs as so thwart
their purposes. In conversation on
this subject tlto cx-apeaker said ! ''I
stand now upon tho samo platform
that 1 stood during tho contest for the
Speakership That was a contest of
principle and not of individuals, and I
am more convinced now than ever that
tho attitude then presented on tho
tariff question is tho true ono for the
JJemocratiu party to take. W o have
seen enough already to show that the
pcoplo of tho country want tho tariff
question to bo let alone, and I havo
determined, as far as I am concerned,
to do all in my power to that cud. I
am sorry that this issuo lias boon forced
upon tho parly at this tune, but tlioso
who mado tho issuo must Bhouldcr tho
responsibility. I havo not inquired ns
to tho purposes ol thoso who advocate
what they call tariff roform, but I
am told they aro preparing a measure
with rcvenuo as tho boIo purpose in
view. I bolievo while tho object of
customs duties, ns that of any other
system ot taxation, is undoubtedly re
venue, tho rates should bo so fixed as to
nfford protection to our manufacturers
and tho labor of our own pcoplo. Be
causo by overproduction another coun
try has been forced to fix prices at a
minimum rato at tho expense of labor,
I do not believe in applying such a
policy to our own laboring classes. I
am now speaking for myself only, but
I believo that there aro many Demo
crats who entertain tho same opinions.
At all ovents I intend to do ray duty
towards my constituents, and that, I
believe will prove to bo for tho best
interests of tho country."

The letter which Senator Lamar
wrote the Commonwealth Club of
Philadelphia, regretting his inability to
attend the Carlisle reception, has been
made public. Senator Lamar says :
I will bo happy to identify myself
with any public manifestation of honor
to that able statesman and distinguish
ed Democrat, Mr. Carlisle, who pre
sides over tho present National House
of Representatives. It would also af
ford mo sincero pleasuro to evince, by
mingling with the members of jour as
sociation, uiv cordial respect for tho
Democrats of Pennsylvania. Thev
have through long days of trial and
even obloquy mado honest battle for
tho Constitution and tho great princi
ples of liberty which that instrument
was designed to secure. They havo
withstood tho forces of a sectional hate
and jealously so long directed against
tho oppressed Southern States with a
moral intrepidity that has dono much
to restore the brotherhood of the Ame
rican people. But tho work of peace
and national concord has not vet been
fully accomplished. The majority of
tho people of tho Union, ns 1 fully be
lieve, would gladly return to tho wise
and conservative methods of the fath
ers, but they havo uot succeeded in
dislodging from the possession of the
National Government tho party which
regards a largo uody ot our citizens as
proper objects ol suspicion, denuncia
tion, repression and a disfranchisement
none tho less sweeping because it is not
embodied in tho statutes. Measures
aro now pending in Congress involving
Federal usurpation more alarminc: and
assaults upon the autonomy ot the
States more fatal than nny yet decided
by tuu Supreme Uourt to bo violativo
ot tho Constitution.
Tho paramount issuo before the
country is stiil tho reform of tho Natio
nal Government from its sectional us
urpation and corruption. Tho great
want of the country is peace and admin
istrative, reform. All true Democrats,
ill patriots, whether of Democratic or
Republican antecedents, who aro will

may be their differences on other ques
tions, unite to elect a Democratio Pre

The Issue in 1884 A Southern Opinion.
From the Tuscaloosa Gazette.
The leading political journals of the
United States of America aro to-dav
indicating what each pleases to call
"Tho issuo beforo tho people in 1881."
Among other surprising declarations we
nave some uemocratio tnctids who,
looking at tho immediate interests of
their own neighborhoods, contend that
protection to homo manufacturers is
tho gieat issue. On tho other hand,
with somewhat seeming elation over
recent events at Washington, wo havo
truo Democratio friends averinir in
stiong languago that a tariff for re
veuuo only is tho greatmatter in hand
to be settled at tho polls ; and fighting
on these two lines is tho order of tho
day, with a good deal of wasted am
munition and very little progress with
mo people.
Tho fact is that tho Demooratio
party settled in 1814, in tho contest
when Mr. Polk wns elected President,
its position on the tariff ; and if in the
Convention of 1880 its delegates over-
stepped tho mark of prudence and tho
traditions uf tho party in their dcclara
lions, tho platform must bo corrected to
correspond with the li no principles of
tho old and tired Democracy.
Tho Ohio platform of 1883 embodies
thoso principles and tho party will go
into the contest in 1881 on no other.
Tho Democracy cannot stand on free
trndo principles, because this country
is in no condition to accept that theory.
But it will reform tho present tariff so
as to yield tho greatest revenuo need
ed, and at the samo time in its adjust
ment will not forget to protect tho
great industries of the country. But
tho issue tor 1881 is not, will not and
cannot bo coufii-ed to so narrow n Mib- j
ject as tho tariff question.
Is it poHsiblo that tho people of this
great country can so soon forget that
tho party now in power lias many

The Pennsylyania Conventions.
A correspondent of tbo New York
Sun says :
For the first tinio in many years, tho
Democrats of Pennsylvania will hold
their Stato Convention in ndvnnco of
Iho Republicans. The last time they
adopted this courso was in 1802. Then
they declared strongly in favor of a
more vigorous prosecution of tho war.
They went before tho peoplo on that
issuo with an apparentsmcerity in their
professions and won, electing the Hon.
Charles R. Buckalow to tho Senato
by a voto of 07 to GO for Gen. Camer
on. In tho following year Col. McCluro
secured an early convention for tho
Republicans ; they presented a patrio
tic and popular platform and the Demo
cratic Convention, being held subse
quently, was substantially compelled
either to repeat that of the Republi
cans or opposo it. Either courso meant
defeat, ns McCiure well know, and as
tho result proved in the re-election" of
Gov. Cut-tin by an overwhelming ma
jority.
Sinco then the Democrats havo in
variably held their Stato Conventions
after tho Republicans held theirs, tho
object being to tako advantage of nny
mistakes made bv their onnonents.
Twice only in twenty years have the
Democrats of Pennsylvania profited by
Republican blunders in 187-1, when
tho latter declared for a third term, and
again in JH82.
This year tho Democrats will hold
their Stnto Convention on April 0 and
tho Republicans one week later. In
fixing tlmt early dato tho Democrats
of Pennsylvania intend to reaffirm tho
tariff planks of the platforms of 1882
ami 1883, and to protect themselves
against being put at a disadvantage by
tho possible declarations of other States
in favor of free trade.

A special to tho Baltimore. TTnrtnn
Jferald from Winchester, Vn., says :
Ono of tho best-known ladies of tho
Shenandoah Valley, Va., has turned '
out to bo a man .Miss Elizabeth Re
becca Payne, daughter of tho late,
Joseph Payne, seven miles from Win
chester, who has lived for thirty-eight '
years ns a lady, suddenly avowed her
self to be, a few days since, a man,
and startled James P. Rcilly, Clerk of
the County Court here, by applying for
a licenso to marry n Miss Hintoii, who
had resided in tho Payno family as u
domestic. Tho lady who fired tho
heart of Mr. Payno with such passion
as to compel him to throw off the
habit of a lifetime and deolaro his sex
is prepOHesiiig and forty years of age.
The htrnngo affair has caused a decid
id Herniation in tho Shonauvloah Valley

When Payno proved his real sex by
producing tho certificate of Dr. P. VY.

was still refused on the ground that
Virginia law compels a man to havo
jiven names which show his sex be
fore ho can act as a man before tho

his name changed at tho March term
of ihe Circuit Court, which will meet

any event which lias disturbed the ao

Payno and his sweetheart wont to West

To ascertain how long a man should

Tho duration of life with tho horse, and

pended in ihelrciowth. M. Floureiislms
improved on tho working out of this
idea suggested by llufton. All tho
larger animals, ho observes, life five
times ns long ns tho tlnm expended by
them in reaching maturity. Thus the
camel grows oight years and lives forty
tho horse grows llvo years and lives
iwenty-nve, tho ox tour and lives Irom
fifteen to twenty, tho dog two nnd
lives ten to twelve, tho man twenty
yenis aud lives to 100 or more. Hy a
pnysicai nnaiogy, uicroiore, Iho ortli
nary life of a man should bo 100 vears
at least. Dr. Farre, of London, in his
address to tho Parliamentary Commit
tee on Drunkenness, travo it as his
opinion that "by tho last grant of Pro-
vtuenco to man (Wen. 0, in), his life is

ing from other causes does not shorten
it, tho reason why so few attain to that

stimulation to which the mass of tho
