THE OTOTKE t - .f I w i . THKCOU'MBIAN. BLOOMS BURG, PA. FUIDAY, APRIL 11, 188 i. THE REFOBMERATWORK. Mkssiis Editous! I bco that X lifts cither wilfully or igiioraniiy jervcricu my lornier nr tide. If hu has donu ho wilfully I should pliue him ninong the low poli ticians, who, ho wishes to nmko us be lieve, nro prutty good follows after all. If he has dono so ignoraiitly, I have only pity for him. I would ask him to lead the article ngalu and if ho can then get no other meaning frotu it than the ono ho paraded in his article, ho might ask some ono to explain it for him. Mo disrespect, Mr. X., wo nro all liablo to err j but 1 would sug gest that you bo very careful in inter preting for the public. I will recapit ulate what I said, for your solo bonefit. A man who would spend $5000 to corrupt innocent citizens, in order to elect himself to a position of trust and . . . .1 thus defeat worth and competency, and tho will of the people, I would and did call a brute. I should classify him with tho brutes that wallow in filth. Would you call tlieni some uico namo as swine t, A man who malccB a personal can vass is engaged in very low business, and is a "pest as disgusting to re sptctablo people as tho frogs of Egypt. Wuat nico name would yon gtvo them t A man who will do tho things enumerated in my article of March 21, is a very vilo creature. W nat nico name is there for these f People differ in regard to bucIi things. Somo say stealing is very bad, while others, who, perhaps, have sto len, or intend to steal, say it. is all riiilit, Ono man says that we should always say truth, while another says that a man who would always speak the truth is a fool. Ono man likes Bwcet, another sour. Ono'fl tastes aud opinions aro always formed by one b up and present environments. imagine that I would please every one. I expected to displease many. X did not, disannoint me. Another thincr I will say of X: He is either a newcomer or has boon asleep all these years, or is ono ot thoso kind that sleep all tho time What I wrote and intend to write here I know of my own knowledge to be true. Could any ono call thoso men who a few weeks ago drovo through all that mud, night and day, disturbing iioooio in their peaceful slumbers, uiu tributing whiskey from their jug on all hands, for tho purpose of defeating tho will of the people, anything elso than low, debased creatures 1 Who would call thoso men, who tramplo on the law by making youth drunk, nice chris tian gentlemen? Anyono who expects to elect himtelf to oflico cannot be trusted in olliee. To Bteal is no worse than that. Perhaps the thing which distinguishes man from the brute moro than any thing else is, that hu 13 ambitious. Ambition within proper bounds is a virtue- If people would express their desiro to bo elected to (illico and permit it to remain at that, what a glorious reformation that would be; but it they will attempt to force themselves into offuo tlmy commit not only a damnable fault, but aro engaged in a tow business. I never called a man who expressed a desire for an otl'ce, a vile creature, but that ono who was bent upon electing himself in spite of the people. To talk of the law only adds fuel to the infernal lire, unless seine one takes tho matter in hand and pushes it. Evi dence is certainly not wanting. Who shall it bet Thoso creatures are so de graded that they take as much pleasure in tho success of their devilish plots as old Satan himself. They resemble the last named individual In that they laugh at tho remonstrances and threats of good people. The man who engages in a personal canvass has only ono step to all the corrupt aud contemptible means of a practical politician and that step is al most invaribly taken. Coirupt solicita tion is so common that it is openly practiced by thoeo seeking every olliee of tho county, even tho supervision of schools. Will not tho peoplo wake up to the enormity of these abuses T The man who engages in a personal canvass is a coward. Hu dare not trust his cliances to tho will of tho people. I know no person or party in tlu-so arti cles. I know no rings or cliques ; but I do know that there aro many in tho county who need regeneration badly. Your correspondent who signs himself Democrat, thinks that in a recent elec tion wo escaped the Charybdis of lloss ism only to flounder on tho Soylla of Dictation. A most unhappy figure! Our political system at present might butter be comuared to tho stables of Augeas, with ono forkful of dung re moved bv tho recent election. Practi cat politics might also bo compared to the Lernaoan hydra, vrhiah for every head that was cut off, produced I wo in its stead. I was somewhat surprised that Democrat did not sav something about Ixiou tied to his wheel for his naughtiness with tho divino Juno CaBting these ancient stones before politicians is like casting pearls beforo hogs. vVu need not go back so far for .T. i it tz r lii! uompuritiouH, uere is one: win jhhih cal system is like n nasty slimy worm which when cut in two produces two worms and if each part bo cut attain and again overy little pieco will produce a worm. Tho only way then to destroy a worm is to mash it under ono s ioou Tho only way to destroy practical poll tics is to mash it. All other means make it moro vigorous. This is tho last articlo I shall wnto on this Bubject. Those abuses, I think will Bonn h.como unbearable when the peoplo will liso up in their power aud kill tho oorrunt politician in cold blood. Whether they will rise in any other way seems doubtful to me. The Cincinnati riots were tho natur al result of unendurable abuse of public trusts, Huware, yo corrupt politicians, who presume to lord it over us. IJeforo you aru uwaro you may lie in tho dust. In the last twentv vears tho Govern merit has paid for interest on tho pub- lio debt tho enormous sum of A 089,000,000, a sum which would defray all the expenses of the Government, exeeiitlnv interest on the Pllblio debt, for nearly nino years to'como, at tho Present rate of exnendituro i and for nearly thlrty-fivo years if expenses could bu limited to what thev were in 18G0. Reports of a reduction in wages on tho Pennsylvania Kailroad nro emphat ically denied at tho ollico of tho ooni nnnv. Tim nllimulu ndiiiit that reduc tions iu force, whorever possible, hav been made, but there is no intention reduoitig wages. tensions for Everybody, lu tho Senate theolherdny Mr. Hoar presented u petition of "8,000 eili lis and Bohllers of tho Western States," asking that a pension of at least eight loiiars a mouth bo paid to everv so ilier And sailor who served in tho ci vil war aud received an honorable dis charge. We shall be surprised if modest Peti tions of this sort are not poured in upon Congress in increasing numbers every year till these. 8,000 soldiers and citi zens, mid a million or so moro. aro mado happy. Tho surplus is great and the claim agents aie industrious. Iho reckless extiavananco which Congress has already shown In regard to pensions has encouraged the claim agents to hope for even better business and bigger profits than they have at present. Ihu House of Representa tives has passed a Mexican War Pen sion bill giving pensions on tho ground of service merely, without any regard to tho need of tho pensioner. Heprc- prescntalive after Representative aud Senator after Senator brings in bis.little . bill for adding to tho length of the peti- sion list and tho tax bills. It is no wonder that in this, way sol Hers and sailors of sound body should be ititluenced to believe that tho Gov- eminent ought to contribute to their support, though they are perfectly nble to support themselves. It is no won der that they should not see that tt is hardly consistent with a proper self- respect for healthy men who hmr', served in the army or navy to demand from the Government, which is due. only to men .who aro actually Buffering from tho elliects of wounds or disease .....,..:., j !.. l . a f l .

I generation understand tho subject bet tor. Senator Logan ought to bo indignant because these Western soldiers and citizens went to an Eastern Senator with their little petition. It is just the kind of petition he would like to have charge of. But Senator Logan wants to scatter the surplus with a smiling hand. Ills ample lungs dilate With the wind of emotion, nnd in the matter of pensions there is need of a little common sense. If a majority of the Senators posnees that quality and little courage, they will see by tho petition and similar propositions the danger ot throwing away money tor pensions that aro not absolutely necessary. The Government lias already been moro than generous. It cannot afford to subject itself to still gi eater burdens. Uy way of impressing this fact upon tho thoughtless, it would be an .excel lent plan for tho Senate to refuse to approve tho Mexican War Pension bill which the House most unwisely passed JV. Y. Sun. TI0KET S0ALPERS. There is a law pending before the Legislature of alarvland to prevent "Ticket Scalping' and to confine the traffic iu tickets to the authorized agents of tho railroad companies j the bill under consideration is similar to that which has been so efiYctive in this vuai mwu in., "vn, v..v...- State both iu protecting passengers and the railroad companies from the loss arising from the purchase and sale of fraudulent tickets or ot tickets 1111 properly procured.

The railroads that are carrying passengers upon terms so favorable should ue nroiecieu uum fraud, their employees from t)iOitemp- tation that robs them ot nome, inenus, and employment, and jiassengers trom iiwniivpiuciif.G or fraud. Tho law of Pennsylvania is exceedingly popular, and a similar 0110 should bo among ihn Kiaintes of every State. Only tlirnm.li nnd bv the oiierntious of a like law can absolute security bo af- forded to the railroad companies, their employees, and the traveling public ; but until such a law becomes common in all States, travelers should reiuse to purchase from scalpers, lest tney ue- come involuntary partners in a fraud - ulent trallic, and suiter tho conscquen- ces of their Inquirer. own act. Philadelphia THE TEOUT SEASON. Tho trout season is almost at hand, and it used to bo that tho days from now on would bo anxiously counted as it approached, by hosts of sturdy lish ermen hungry for tho exhilerating sport trout fishing affords, 'to day its coming excites comparatively little pleasurablo anticipation, excepting upon tho part of those who have the time and means to go to distant points, for its indulgence. Trout can thrive in wild land only. They need the overhanging trees for food and to prevent their crystal homos from drying up. Only a few. years ago there was a plenty of water in many of our streams up to tho mid dle of July that now aro very low ruinously so for tho trout by tho middle of July or tho first of May. .... . - .1.... 1..... ,.x....w,lln,l tho necessity iimi um uiiiij-iiv,i has rcipiired tho building of Hood dams.

' TI1K III'OINNINO OF IT. "How do you account for the present demand for sensational literature and cheap Btory papers. 1'' "The first reason is their cheanness. Thirty, years ago poor people could not read novels unless they bought them in book form at prices ranging all the way trom Sl.su to !$2.5U per volume. for 83, paid'inlwcekly installments of six scnts a number. This small sum quickly opened up the field of sensa tional romanco to poor peoplo of all classes, and in a very short while the Ledger ran, up to,nw'cekly circulation ot nearly oUtyUUU, copies. ouoh a,prot itablo monopoly as this very soon at tracted rivals to tho field.
