Republican office-holders dou t get
much encouragement from Senator
Edmunds. Ho says that tho logio of
tho situation is that thev must tro. As
tho Senator reaches his conclusions bv
lotiio only, the opinion is weiizhty, even
if displeasini;. Mr. Edmunds doesn't
think thero is to bo haste, but that ulti-
mutely the ottioes will be in tho hands
of the dominant party. Ho says this
is according to tho inexorable logio of
necessity, weightier than that of any
which attracts tho attentions ot Mr.
Cleveland or any one, sincere and deli
berate as they unquestionably arc. The
Vermont senator torecast ot tlio iu-

Under tho now administration there

The License Question,
Our attention lias been called to tlio
following cilitorinl from tho Shenan
doah Herald of recent date, by n yen-
UemMi of Ucntrnlm who in deeply in
terested in tho mipprcssion of tlio un
lawful alo of liquor at that place. The
nrticlo In applicable to no other portion
of our county, but from common re
port it fits Ccntrnlia to well that wo
reprint It. 1 ho Jlerahl says :
'Tho announcement by tho Coitrt,on
Monday last, that a number of applica
tions for liquor license?, in Mahanoy
City, had been refused, fell like a thun
derbolt among tho applicants and their
attorneys. They wcro not prepared
tor it, anil tho curses and execration?
which they heaped on tho heads of
thoso who wcro instrumental in secur
ing stich a result were long and loud.
Tho Court, also was freely criticised,
but its action is ondorsed by fully nine
tenths ot tlio community.
That there is tho most urgent neces
sity for lestricting the already great
and ever increasing evil ot tho liquor
traffic no intelligent person will essay
to dispute. In this county tho evil
has iwiiincd gigantic proportions. This
is especially true ot the towns north ot
the Hroid Mountain, where tho sa
loons, taverns, nnd so-called restau
rants outnumber all other tilncns of Inn.

perhaps 14,000. Within tho bounds

unusual to find bunches of four and fivo
grouped together.
1 his evil must bo remedied, sooner
or later. This extraordinary number
of saloons and tho loose manner in
which they aro conducted havo a do
moralizing effect on both the old and
young ot tho community. Tho Court
has a duty to perform in the matter,
andifwenie to judge by its action
on Monday last, it means to perform
it.
We havo some knowledge of the
difficulties that beset tho Court in deal
ing with tho matter. Wo know that

however, that tho Court should bo Ion
ger imposed on in this manner. One
halt tho saloons now in Shenandoah is
more than enough, and if tho Court
shall refuse to reissue half the licenses,
it will perform an act for which it will
receive tho praiso of tho community.
l hero appears to be a very popular
error regarding tho interpretation of
tho law under which licenses aro grant
ed. The Court, in tho past, appears to
havo acted on the interpretation that it
was i'.s duty to issue a licenso to the
applicant if he could show that ho was
a citizen of good moral character and
could procure witnesses to certify that
the place ought to bo licensed. It has
been decided, however, by tho highest
judicial authority, that it is the duty of
the Court to ascertain if there
is a necessity for a licensed house
at the place for which it is ask
ed. It may bo argued in opposition to
this that the Court could not find tho
limo t0 0 tiro, t(10 oounty 3mi ,je

and where tucy are not. This, howev
er w0lll(1 i,artjly b(J an argument. The
Court, knnu's. as fines pvprvhnilv Ue.
that two-thirds ot tho saloons now li
censed hero are unnecessary, and if the
Court shall indiscriminately refuso to
reissue two-thirds of the licenses next
woek it can hardly make a mistake,
Thero are, perhaps, a dozen places
in tho borough conducted Willi ,i show
of respect for the law, but outside of
these tho Court would bo fully justified
in refusing to grant tho licenses, on tho
ground that thev have regularly and
openly violated tho law, but more par-
iicularlv on the ground that instead of
being a convenience or nccommoda-
tion to the public, they zro a menace to
tho morals ot tho youth of tho town,
ami a positive curse to hundreds of fain
ilies, tho fathers of which spend their
seamy earnings lor rum.

Judge Rico of Wilkesbarre has late
ly made an important decision iu the
suit brought by Recorder Glennon
anainst tho county for a larger salary.
Tho law of 1893 fixed the salary of
county officials in counties having less
than 150,000 population. According
to tho census ot laau, Jjiizerno had
"ly 135,000, and it was generally sup
posed that the county would this time
come within tlio provisions of tho act,
as calculations based on tho proportion
of taxable to population showed that
in 1883 tho number of people in tho
county was io'.,uuu.
Tho otticials allecled by the law, Ho-
corder Joseph Glennon, Sheriff Ober-
render, Treasurer Whileman and Keg.
istor Boyd, decided to test the matter
betoro tho courts, and Kecorder Men
tion began proceedings as a test case,
-lho Judgo upholds thu position
taken by tho officials, believing that
where tho law does not stato what is
to be taken as tho basis of tho popula
tion it becomes, as a matter of fact,
susceptible of proof 111 any ordinary
method. Under the decision tho sal
aries ot tho olhcials will como under
the provisions of the act of 187C,
which will result in an increase 10 the
Recorder from S2000 to S3500 ; to the
Sheriff, from $4000 to $0500 ; to the
Treasurer from S3000 to S1000, to the
Register of Wills from 3000 to S3500,
and to the County Commissioners from
$1000 to $1500. The commissioners,
however, will probably apply for a re
I hearing of tho case. Although satis
lied iu their own minds that the popu
lation is over 150,000, thoy claim that
in his opinion Judge Rico did not pass
upon the point whether tho ovidenco
of tho increase of population was suf
ficient as matter ot law.

By the Hundred Thous.mil.
Several hundred thousand citizens
of tho United States aro to-day indulg
ing hopes of obtaining offico at' Uiu
hands of Mr. Cleveland. Thero Is hot
a villngo or n hnmfe'. in nil tho Union
so smalt and insignificant that it does
not contain somo more or ' less eager
seekers nfur places where they can
drnw tho publio pay.
It might bo inferred from this great
nnd widespread lust for office that sala
ries under the Government wcro great,
or that tho iispirnnts for tho plaecB
wero generally unable to niako their
living otherwise that it affords new
proof that tho number of the unem
ployed was extraordinarily large at
this time. Rut, with a fow exceptions,
tlio Government pays only moderate
salaries, and tliu vast majority of thoso
who ato working so hard to get them
nro not spurred on by necessity. They
are doing very weli as. they aro, and
yet they aro neglecting their bu'inesi
nnd boring their friends to get signa
tures to their .applications for places in
tho public service, at homo or abroad,
which they could not fill without
breaking up or hazarding their present
occupations, ami in which they would
obtain only a bare living. Their hold
on these office", too, would be very in
secure if they got them. They might
be turned out in four years, if not bo
fore. They might bo taken far away
from their homes, even to strange
countries, and so lose tliu advantages
of connections and reputations they
havo gained where ihey are.
And yot these hundred- of thous
ands of men fasten their hopes on
Washington as if a gold mine of un
told richness had been opened up there.
What contented tliem boforu brings
them only discontent now. Thoy may
havo gono on proudly refusing "to ak
favors from anybody, but now they
struggle to get their " poitions for place
to Washington, as if their lives de
pended on it.
Ono of tho ohief causes of this greed
for office is undoubtedly the prevalent
notion that Government service re
quires little work. Tho applications
for what aro or are supposed to bo sin
ecures aro especially numerous. For
cign Consulates aro in tho greatest de
mand, because it is thought they mean
a life of ease in gonial climes ; and
many thousands ot our Democratic and
Mugwump countrymen long to travel
in foreign parts at the expense of the
rest of us. They study tho list of Con
sulates and hold family consultations
as to which is tho most agreeable for
people of their tastes; and wives and
daughters meditate over the wardrobes
tho climato of their dreams will re
quire. But, as a matter of fact, very, very j
fow of these places, either at home or
abroad, are at all desirable. Tho ordi
nary Government clerk leads a life of
monotonous routine, and the less ho
has to do the worse off lie is. The av
erage Consul is poorly jiaid, and must
endure an exilo from his country and
friends which soon becomes irksome to
him. He is not the important function
ary ho supposed ho would be; and
wh"ii the novelty of his place has worn
off, he is apt to weary of his life
among Grangers and long for tho en
terprising activity to which ho had
been accustomed at home. Ho has
dropped out of sight and is forgotten.
Ihe publn service also begets habits
which are very injurious to a man,
which tend to weaken his self-depen
dence and unfit him for anything else.
Old officeholders are all at sea when
they lose their places. Thoy havo been
under fostering care so long, havo so
long led lives ot routine fixed them bv
others, that they loo their own power
of initiative. They dare not take the
risks and assume the rssponsibilitics
which other men regard as a mailer ot
course, and wnicn nein 10 tinmen ami
strengthen their moral muscle, and
enable them to win success. Wash-
ngton is to day full of dependents on
the Government, who would be almost
ike women deprived of tho protection
of their husbands if they lost their pri
vilege of drawing their monthly supply
from the pay-roll. Thoy havo forgot
ten how to work, and havo acquired
tho habit of leaning on somebody
else.
Wo therefore havo no hesitation in
saying that thoso who aro disappointed
n getting the places thoy aro strug
gling for, will in general bo better oil
as citizens of a democratio republic,
They will bo better fitted in tho long
run to sustain their part in a country
where pverv man must fight his own
way. iv. J . Aim.

Democrnfio lassies of the institution
had full opportunity to "get square"
with their Republican companions.
Last November thu spirit of election

at Vnssar as in the outside world. The,
Republicans by far tho most numer
ousled tho Democrats and Prohibi

celebrating IM.iine's election befoio the

So wo don't grudgo you or Cleveland your

height as thoy discovered themselves
passing under a largo and formidable

All groaning over the defeat,
Of which the day reminds ns.

Though he's inaugurated,
And all yon valiant Democrats
With triumph are elated.
Tho hatchet's buried very deep.
By this time it's quite rusty
And portraits of the candidates
Are very, very dusty.

WASHINGTON LETTER.
From our Regular Correspondent.
Washington, Mar. 10, 1885.
To relate tho events of the past week
in tlio space allowed for a letter, I am
ilraid will require a power ot conden
sation that your correspondent does
not possess.
Tho President was inaugurated witli
well ordered pomp and pageantry, in
the presence of a crowd unprecedented
iu numbers and respectability. Tho
weather attributed by somo to tho ar
rest ot Gen. Ilazen, tho chief of tho
Weather Bureau, was as perfect as it
had been regulated bv a thermometer.
Tho inaugural address was delivered in
tho presence ot at least uu.UOU spectators,
and owing to the strength oi the X're-
sident's voice, a largo proportion of
them were actual auditors. Tho pa
rade that followed was such sis has
never before been seen in this country,
and it was reviowed by tho President,
and muny distinguished personages
around him, as well as by 250,000 pco
plo who coverrd the sidewalks, tempo
rary balconies, stands, and houso lops
ot rennsyivania avenue.
At night tho sky was painted red,
whito and blue, witli fireworks, and
tho gnat ball attended by the Prosi
dent and nearly ten thousand persons
was tho brilliant nnd frivolous finale of
tho day. I gazed upon Mr Cleveland's
pale, strong taco as ho rode to the Capt
tol in tho forenoon, and wondered how
ho would bo able to bear up thiough
tho Hying ordeal. The mental, physi
cal and nervous strain must have been
intense. To go through tho prelimi
nary etiquitto at tlio Whito House i to
drive slowly to tho Uapitol, the oyno
sure of hundreds of thousauds of eyes ;
to appear tho observed and criticised
of all amid thu distinguished throng in
tlio United Mates tjenate Uhamber ; to
deliver without reading, an address in
tho vast presenco East of the Capitol
to stand for four liours while n linn of
25,000 uniformed men passed beforo
him, and then, at eleven o clock at
night, to nppear in a stifling ball room,
amid a mob ot nggressivejy curious
women this was tho gauntlet with
which Picsident Cleveland commeucid
his administration on the fouith of
March. He is alive I and wo thank
neaven numaii ingenuity ami pageantry
has done its worst.
Since the fouith the Whito Houso
has been boieged by delegations, but
tht President manages to find time to
eat mid sleep,
lho Cabinet has qualified and gone
to work. With tho exception of the
Cabinet of thu Into ndminUtration none
of tlio rascals hnvo yet been turned
, out, but quite n number havo with the
instinct of Davy Crockett's coon como
down (gone out) of their own aecoid.
Tho majority, however, will wait until
Mr, CI voland shoots. Thoy txpeet to
havo to como finally, but will defer
their tumble as long as possible,
Tho now president has given out
that ho will not personally hear or per
sonally consider applications for office,
unless they shall como to him recom
mended by tho Cabinet clllcer iu whose
clennilmcnt lho (iflleo is f-ouglit. It is
believed that Mr, Cleveland will liter
ally ndhcro to this rule. At any rate
it will be n literal impossibility lor him
to considei one-tenth of the applica
tions ho is receiving. Each' mail brings
nn immense load of petitions which
Col. Lnmoiit and his clerks look over,
acknowledge with prcpand blank
forms, and refer to tlio Departments to
which they belong. Tlio President
docs not see them, and no persistence
on the part of tlio npplicaut will secure
his attention.
Miss Cleveland held the tmml recep
tion on Saturday afternoon last, and
hundreds went to tlio White Ilouse
who had not been thero before, lirpay
their tespects lo tlio president's filter.
Miss Cleveland is not what, is known
hero as a "society lady." She is want
ing in the savolr aire, the graces, and
the it no sah nuoi which ore charac
teristic of great social leadets. But she
has what is better than all these, iu a
plain democratic country, nn air of sin
cerity and amiability which impressed
her guests with welcome. Her face is
expressive of Intelligence and charac
