Tho Now York Sun which professes to shino for all, has been found to bo deceiving tho public. It Bends out warmth only for its own favorite, Ben Butlor. Tho peoplo obsorvo its hollow pretensions, and tho Sun is fast being eclipsed. Judging from tho meagre attendance at tiio iiutler meeting last Saturday ovening, which Mr. Dana was booming as tho greatest demon titration over to bo hold in Now York city, tho management will soon bo compelled to resort to tho schemo of tlio l'lnlailelpliia j'ress in onlor to Keop up us circulation. A communication appears in tho Jit publican signed by "Democrat" and purporting to corao from Light Street, charging certain candidates of tho Domocratio party with obtaining their nomination by tho "expenditure, of suras of money," Ac. Eithor tho writer Is not a Domocrat, or ho is ig norant of tho fact that tho Democratic party of this county is well organized, nud that wo havo rules for the govern ment of tho nominations, if uo is a constant reader of tho Columbian wo refer him to our issue of April 4th, in which he can find the rules of tho Domocratio party. If this is not con venient, if ho will call at this oflico wo can supply him with a bound copy of tlio rules, wo ooiievo mo otiarges aro mere rumors, and not founded on facts, llowovor, If wo aro wrong in this opinion, Mr. Democrat can lay his chargos boforo tho Standing Commit toe, who will tako proper action. We will not shield any ono who has viola ted the election laws in such a manner as to merit his withdrawal from tho ticket. But wo havo a means for tho correcting of all those ovils within tho party without resorting to tho publica tion of anonymous communications in tho columns of Republican Journals. If such communications must bo pub lished let tho writer's name bo given, otherwise wo will answer no such com munications, as thoy appear like per sonal spleen, and havo uo inoro influ ence than between the writer and re ceiver of tho communication. Let us havo the truth in all things. THE BUTLER HZZLE. Ben Butler's organ, tlio Now York Sun, for soveral weeks past has been shouting that tho Butler demonstra tion of last Saturday ovening in Now York city, was to bo tho largest assem blage in our history, i noy woro ar ranging for an atteiulanco oi trom twenty to tinny thousand people, oi all partic?, who wcro fast tumbling over to Butler. Tho meeting was call ed, aud Butler had tho satisfaction of speaking to less than ono thousand people IIo tdiotild bo satisfied that oven that number would sit and listen to his haranguo of anti-monopoly idcasj when tho inteligcnt laboring man is awaro of Butler's lncomo of 100,000 nnnuallv which ho falls to lavish upon his much sought for labor voter. They canot lay tho fault to tho laok of inter est manifested by tho laboring man to public demonstration, because on Mon day tho labor unions of tho city of Now York held n demonstration, whioh was not politioal, and there wcro from twenty to twenty-fivo thousand in pa rade. If tho meeting is a type of the Butler boom, (aud tho Now oik Sun horalded in advance that it was) wo find ho has come to bo recognized as a grand fraud, and if extraordinary ef forts arc not put forth from this until election day ho will havo a hard time to poll tho small vote ot uii'j.uuu mat Weaver polled in 1880. To be Sued for Libel, It is rumored that Gen. Butler, tho inevitable, is going to sue L. Lum Smith, editor and proprietor of tho Philadelphia Herald, for libel. Mr. Smith recently invented, and is selling an amusing game which ho mirthfully terms "Political Euchre." Each stato is represented by nn ordinary playing card, bearing on its faco tho number of electoral votes. Tho Republican States aro all printed in black and tho Demo crats in red. Blaino and Locan aro played respectively as right and left bowers whenever Republicans ar.0 trumps, Democratic candidates viae versa. General Butler is most appro priately played as the "Littlo Joker," and at times makes it screamingly em- harassing for either Blaino or Cleve land players. Tho winning side must secure at least 201 of tho 401 electoral votes. Mr. Smith can easily establish the fact that Butler Is a joker, and can call as witness both Blaino and Cleve land. J'ottsville Chronicle. The Germans for Cleveland. .Tudgo Thayer of Iowa, in speaking of tlio situation in that Slate savs : "Tho Gorman voto is now a deciding factor, and tho prohibition legislation of tho Republican party has brought it to us. A very small fraction of the German vote, indeed, will stay Repub lican. Wo will get more than nine tenths of it. Wo expect to carry tho State against tlio Blaine olectors." Congressman Jeremiah Murphy, of Davenport, Iowa, said : "Tho pros pect in Iowa of beating tho Blaiuo ticket is excellent. Cleveland and Hendricks will poll ninety-five per cent, of tho German vole of tlio Stato. That voto amounts to 60,000. For merly tho Republicans got fully 47, 000 of it. Tho Gorman voters that re mained with tho Republican party after the last natioual election feel that they have been outraged by the last Republican legislature ly the passago of the prohibitory law with its enor mous penalties and tho consequent confiscation of largo amounts of prop erty. There is no defection whatever in tho Irish vote." Representative Wallace, of Ohio, savs the Germans of Ohio aro all leav ing Blaine, and that Ohio will bo car ried in October by tlio Democrats. IIo Bays also that he has no doubt about Wisconsin's being carried by tho Dem ocrats. Gen. L. B. Parsons, of Illi nois, says tho Democrats are having a hurrah campaign and making very great gains in German districts. They havo a lighting chance thero and if Ohio goes Democratic in October tho Democrats may carry Illinois. Ex-Congressman Elredge, of Wis consin will go to tho Democrats, as tho Germans will not voto for Blaine. Elaine Break-up in the West. A CALM REVIEW OF THE PRESIDENTIAL BATTLE AS THE TRUTH PRESENTS IT. The real information received hero from the West and South in regard to tho political situation is very different from the statements daily given to tho public by those Republican journals which aro strictly partisan. Within a fortnight thoso who havo access to the private information which comes hore to Republicans havo been surprised nt the unanimity of opinion that, instead of the old-timo Republican majorities in tlio leading Western States, there aro plain indications that every ono of them is rapidly becoming uncomforta bly close. 'I his information which comes by lotter and has been brought also in person by mon prominont in tho contest which is opening is from supporters of tlio Republican ticket. In all cases a want of money is noted. In no single Western Stato aro Republi cans giving ns they havo in other cam paigns. From sections like tho Wes tern reserve in Ohio, which havo been heralded to the country as "on firo for tho Republican ticket," reports como from leading men of an apathy which indicates a large etay-at-hoinu vote. The truth about Ohib to day is that many of tho Republican workers who aro recognized as thoso who should bo corieclly informed regard that Stato as exceedingly close, with tho present chances in favor of tho Democrats. Tho same is undoutedlv truo of Wis consin, and within tho last week Re publicans aro beginning to admit that Miohigan is no longer by any means a sure State. Unless tho inside informa tion coming here both to tho Republi cans and Democrats is altogether at fault there is no longer nuy chauco of tho Blaine ticket carrying that state. Thero aro even reports from Ohio that givo tho Republicans uneasiness with respeot to tho Congressional vote. Pub lic men as prominent as any among the Republicans havo written here practically conceding another district to tho Democrats and that tho Repub licans must bo prepared to see that Stato go for Blaino only by a rcdnoed majority. A German who has been observing tho conditions iu that Stato and reporting hero, Bays that ho did not find a single one oi his country- mon who would voto tho Re publican ticket. In brief, tlio Repub lican situation, as recognized by thoso managing tho campaign, la that the states ot tho Central West, with tho possiblo exception of Illinois, aro to-day dobatablo ground, i ho nation al commltteo, instead of being able to confine its efforts as heretofore to Ohio and Indiana, has suddenly been arous ed to the fact that both Miohigan and Wisconsin aro blipning away from them and that it may yet bo possiblo for tho jjcmocratfl to succeed without a singio Eastorn Stato. Wathinnton Dls- patch to tho J'ublio Ledgtr. Only rive States Sure for Blaine. In all tho Union thero aro but fivo states snfo for Blaine.

Chicago Herald, Ind.J(cp ) Lincoln's Letter of Acceptance of the Re publican Nomination In 1060, Tho ropubliean press so disappointed nt not being ablo to find anything in Cleveland's lotter of ncoeptanco, that thoy might justly criticise, began to offer abuso on account of the shortness of tho letter. They havo forgotten that tho letter of acceptance of Abra ham Lincoln was noted for its brevity. A great many of tho earnest suppor ters of Lincoln, twenty years ngo aro advocating tho olcction of Clovcland to day. Thoy seo that Cleveland prom ises no more than ho expects to fulfill, and they prefer trusting tho govern ment in tho hands of such a man than ono who is full of empty promises. Tim following is a reproduction of Lincoln's lcttor of acceptance t SniiNQFlKLU, III, May S3, UW5. sir i I accept the nomination tendered mo by tho convention ovor which you presided, of which 1 am formerly apprised In a letter of yourself and others acting ns n commltteo of tho convention for that purpose.

Your obliged friend and fcllow-cltUon, Abhauah Likcoln. Hon. Ueokcie Asnuc.v, rrcbldcnt of the ltepubll. can Convention. Vermont Staggers Under Blaine. That tho Republicans of Vermont havo elected their candidate for Gover nor is a matter of course. Mr. Pingreo is an exceptionally popular man, with no opposition in his own party, and under ordinary circumstances ho should havo had at least tho majority of four years ago, whioh was 26,603. "His ma jority in the election of Tuesday is apparently not much above 21,000. This falling off iu so staunch a Repub lican Stato as Vermont is not without significance. It will contribute noth ing to reanimate tho llagging Bhitie campaign. At no time since tho war has tho Republican majority iu tho September elections iu Vermont in a Presidential year fallen below 25,000, except in 1876, when a reduction to 23,735 'pre saged the election of Tilden. This year tho majority has fallen still lower, aud that without any incrcaso in tho Democratic vote. Tho Republicans of Vermont had no reason to desert their caudidato for Governor,but it is ovident that they were not disposed to excit themselves to start a boom for Blaine, and the light voto is simply an indica tion of tho prevailing dissatisfaction with tho Republican party and its Presidential candidate. Tho Blaino organs will doubtless an nounce a glorious victory, but tho par ty managers will know better. They will understand that when disaffection begins to show itself iu a Stato liko Vermont tho situation is critical. While this "first gun" determines noth ing, it wholly fails to bring to the Blaino cause tho encouragement it so sadly lacks. A similar falling off would loso the itepublicans many a state they havo counted upon, and it will need a very big majority in Maino next week to re-magnetizo the boom. Timt$. The Metropolitans to ltoss Away With the f resent Season. It is understood that tho Metropoli tan Baso Ball Club of Now York City and tho Athletics of Philadelphia aro to be consolidated at tho cud of the season. For some time tho Metropoli tan Exhibition Company, which runs both tho ball clubs in Now York, has been buying Athletic stock, and it now has a controlling interest. With tho last scheduled game in October tlio Metropolitan Club will pass out of ex istence, and there will bo only ono pro fessional nine, the New Yorks, in Now York City next season. Tho Metropolitan Exhibition Com pany will run tho New Yorks and tho Athletics. Tho Metropolitan players will go to streugthen both. Oi r, lloh bert, Keofc, Estei brook, and Roseman will go to tho Now Yorks, and the oth ers will bo of tho Athletic of next year. Mr. Mutrio will probably bo tho manager of tho now Athletics. The cause of this change is said to bo tho poor support wh'ch has been given to tlio Metropolitans. Although thoy stand first in tho Association race tho attendaneo at tho Now York games has como to bo very small. Tho Now Yorks, it is promised, will bo a fino club next season, and will havo first class management. Tornado in Dakota, The following are somo of tho pecu. liaritics of tho recent tornado which oc curred near Huron, Dakota : Twelvo miles northeast of Huron a man named Briggs had thirty-two head of cattlo killed by being blown Into tho James River and drowned, or thrown on the ground and crushed. He had b!x head of horses killed in tho saino way. Eleven hundred I ushcls of threshed oals in his granary were nil swept nway. His wifo is a woll known but termaker for tho Huron market. The last threo months she and a servant packed all the butter they had mado in crocks, and stored it in the cellar, several hundred pounds in all. When thoy saw tho storm coming they wont into tho cellar and crouched in tho northeast corner of it, tho direction from which tho tornado was coming. It carried away and destroyed tho house, scooped up every crock of but ter and carried it away and it cannot bo found. Tho women woro unhurt, William Feikey had two hoises and a colt in his stable. The stable, horses, nnd colt aro yet to bo heard from. Myron Kinney had two harnessed horses nt his stable Tho horses woro seen to go up in tho air and como down a long distance away. About two hours af terward they walked back homo with nil tho harness off except the collars. Tho Rov. George A. CrcBsoy lives a milo from tho business centre of Hu ron. Tho tornado that struck near hero was in plain sight from his house, a milo distant. Ho iiys no wind was stirring outside of tho storm belt, and thero wcro no other clouds in tho sky. At times two or threo tornado clouds were iu vlow. All had a spiral mo tiou. and looked exactly like an ordi nary tin funnel, Tho cloud gradually aroso ami fell, goinc Boutheusterlv, While in sight there appeared to bo a double funnel, tho outer ono blaok and tho inner one white When tho lower end touohed tho ground ovorythlng lu Itfl track was destroyed. Patrick A. Collins, In his speech nt tho recent Irish demonstration In Now York, nssertod that many years ngo Fnther John Bapbst was tnricd and fenthgred m Maine, nnd tho Kenncbeo Journal, Mr. Blaine's paper, instead of denouncing tho outrage, said thero was great provocation for it. Tho Father Bapbst roforrcd to by Mr. Collins is living nt tho novitiate in Frederick City, Md. Ho is on tho supcraniiiiat. ed list, being over 80 years of ngo. Ho is n tall, patriarchal-looking man nnd very gonial in his manner. About thirty years ago he was pastor of a church at Bangor, Mo., and hnd charge of a chapel also at Ellsworth. Suuh was tho elteot ot tho outrago upon him that oven yet when ho hears a knock at tho door of his room ho clasps his hands and asks pltcously, "Aro they coining for mo again t" The Canscs of Labor Riots. The labor riots in Ohio, whioh, but for the wisdom of a democratic execu tive, might havo led to untold misersy and incalculable loss, suggest that tho causes of these outbreaks ought to ho inquired into with a vlow to prevent ing their reRiirienco. There is no higher mission of statesmanship than this nud no means by which more good may bo accomplished. Labor liots aro comparatively recent origin in this country. For neaily a century the country odvnnood in mater ial intorests and developed her abun dant resources without these eruptions. But within the past twenty years they havo been coming with unpleasant fre quency and dangerous consequences. It is not difficult to discover the causes, but tho remedies can only be applied when thoy aro fully understood. Labor riots havo their inducing cause in tlio distress of laboring men. When workingmon aro prosperous thoy aro happy, contented and amiable. When, however, want overtakes them and their wives and children aro suffer ing for necessaries of life, they becorao restive, irritable nnd riotous. This con dition is brought about by tho econom ic system of the republican party. Over protection whioh in timo leads to idlenoss. From that come want, dis content and disorder. Laboring mon Bhould reflect on thcso facts. Thoy are not to blamo for tho outbreaks so much as the system that makes them inevita ble. Patriot.

WANAMAKKR'S. rhl1dclphla,Sctcrnbr 1, 1S84. Four years ago we said that a merchant's way of dealing in black silk was a pretty fair test of his dealing in general, There are two reasons for the statement: the importance of black silk as an article of merchandise, and the impossibility of being perfectly sure how any par ticular quarter-yar of it is going tt wear. It is worth something in estimating a man to know how he treats an important matter that in volves some risk to his client. There are two attitudes vhit,h the merchant may properly take towards this treacherous article of univer sal dress. He may say : We buy the silks of the best mak .ss; use the best skill we can command in choosing them ; fNamine carefully be fore we sell them ; and, if the silks do not turn out success ful in wear, the fault is back of us. The maker himself does not know how a partic ular piece of his own black silk is going to wear; the skilful workmen through whfisc successive hands it has passed from the cocoon to the last process of the finish do not know ; no body knows. The only way to find out is by trying. You have got to buy with what ever of risk there is. We do all we can to make it little. We cannot take it away. This is the attitude that he must take, if he is frank and fair; unless the maker bears the risk. Somebody has got to bear it ; the merchant can't ; the maker can. If a maker chooses to insure his silk, rely on the merchant to pass that insurance over to the wearer and deal justly with both, then the merchant may say: This silk may wear well or ill ; we do not know how it will turn out; but, if it goes too soon, we'll replace the part that fails, Either attitude is proper. Either recognizes the un avoidable chance of disap pointment that lurks in every black silk dress. One makes provision for that chance ; and the other notifies the buyer that the risk is hers. It depends on the maker what the merchant can do. Not every maker of black silk, not every maker of good black silk, not every maker of the very best black silk, is disposed to take the risk of his work. Some merchants of the highest standing never guar antee any silk to wear. We choose the middle ground. We warrant silks that are warranted to us. If a re sponsible maker is willing to take the risk of his work and trust us to administer his guarantee, we do it. We do not insist that he shall. We are prompted to this explanation by a series of black silks which we sell with agreement to replace with out charge any part that may fail to'be fairly durable. Let it be understood that the guarantee is ours as much as if the maker were not behind us; and that it is the maker's as much as if you were not looking to us for its fulfil ment. The silks we guarantee to wear well are these, three French and two American: Bellon's "Household" brand, $1.25 to $2.25; Giraud's " Cachemire Alexandra,' $1.50 to $3; Guinet's" Cache-' mire," 90 cents to $3 50 ; Giver naud's gros-grain, $1.25 to $2; and Cheney's gros-grain, $1.25 to $2.50. Each maker's silk has its peculiar characteristics through its several grades; and tiie prices rise with the weight. The price of silk is very low now. The depression is felt particularly in staples ; less in "novelties," which always bring extravagant prices for the first few weeks. We refer to-day to staples; to silks of intrinsic value ; to silks that never lose their favor. Because they always hold their place in dress, they go up and down in the market according to the cur rent value of silk and labor and tariff hardly ever ac cording to fashion.
