THE COLUMBIAN AND DEMOCRAT, BLOOMSBURG, COLUMBIA COUNTY, PA. The Colubian. 0. E, Elwell, mil... BLOOMSBURG, PA. FRIDAY, JULY, 10, 1885.

It is said that Mr. Conkling wants to return to tho Senate two years hence, ami Ins arrival liomo alter ins sojourn abroad is to bo made tho occasion of a grand banquet to rjivo him something of a sccd-off. With Conkling and Evarts in tho Senate, Now York would bo unusually well represented for a btato that has had in tho benate cliam bcr such men as Piatt, Warner Miller nnd Laphatn. Of William M. Evarts' romantic mar riage a gossip says; Tho story is all right, oxcopt, as ho remarked to tno tho other day, that his wifo's narao is not Mary, tliat ncr lather was not otato Treasurer and Governor of Vermont, that tho match was not opposed by her father, and that there was no great er amount of romanco in the engage' inent than is ordinarily tho case with young people." Tho Press seems to know something about Unay that is not to ins credit. It declares that that something, " when it comes to bo discussed, as it inevitably must be, will be much moro difficult to deal with. Men familiar with tho affairs of tho state know that his candidacy involves much moro ser ious matters, and that such a camp, aicn cannot pass without their discuss ion. Republicans should understand what thev are about." Now that Quay is nominated for Stato Treasurer by tho Republican party, it remains to bo scon whether tho 1'ress will have, tho courago to tell what these "serious matters ' are. Tho Lancet calls attention to tho dancrer lurkincr in the nractico of lick ing adhesive stamps and envelopes, de claring that much local irritation, soro tongues and kindred complaints may bo traced to this source. It relates a curious illustration of tho way in which discaso may be communicated. An envelope received from a person who habitually tok largo quantities of mor phia hypodermically was reclosed by the person who opined it by licking tho adhesivo surface, with tho result of making him violently sick. Tbo mere touch of tongue of tho taker of morphia had rendered tho gum intensely nau seous. There is no excuso for licking tho adhesivo surface, whilo the samo result can be brought about, by licking tho surface- on which tho stamp is to be placed. Of course exception is made of thoso violently lovo-siok young raou who lick the surface ot their sweet heart's letter wherothostamphad been, forgetful of the fact that the colored coachman licked tho siamp and put it Ml. THE INDIAN AND HIS EIGHTS. A few centuries ago the Indian trod tho forests and plains of America as tho "Monarch of all he surveyed." AMicro now lofty ciiunth spires rear their heads to heaven, and their bells sound tho summons to tbo worship of tho God of Christian and Hebrew, there in tho glory of his war paint, and tho splendor of his plumagc,tho savago warrior lifted up his voice to tho great Manitou. Tho land was his by birth and by occupancy, and was taken from him gradually, but surely, by civilized oppression. The shores ot tho Atlan tic bounded his domain on the cast and tho great rivers that aro now tho highways of commerce, were disturbed only by tho' ripples mado by his baik canoe. From point to point ho was driven by thewhitu invaders from over tho sea, robbed of his hunting grounds, despoiled of his property, and finally, after year and years of neglect by tho government that has usurped his do main, he finds himself cooped up on a limited reservation on tho great plains of tho west. All this has been said before and much moro like it, and the long dis puted question as to whether the whito man nau tno rignt 10 taico possession of tho Indian's territory, we boliov'o has never yet been permanently & lied by the school debating societies, It is only recently that efforts havo hern made to chrit-tianizu and civilize our red brethren of the plains, by tho establishment of Fchoola for their edu cation, and many boyn and girls havo been taught tho ways of tho whites nt thesu establishment, and havo gono to Ihoir rudo homes to tell what they have learned, and to instil in other youth a denire to live like civilized people. Thus m initially aro the few fragments of many mighty tribes being metamor. tihcKed into intelligent and useful citi zens. It is unfortunate that when thesu yuung it'dfkbin appear ni civilized com iiiiiuitit'S dressed liko white men, acting like white men, and looking to whito men lor good examples, mat iney I. mo not escaped lrom all savage man ners by coming cast. It lias occurred tint thev have been iertd at, whoop fd nt in imitation of savngo war criw, laughed at and insulted. It lift' oc curred in distant towns i it has occur red in lllooinsbtiri'. Thot-e who indulgo in this soil o pleasantly should remember that uq iuo has ii better right to tread upon American coil, than thoso whoso am l-csIoih were tho kings of tho forests, thousands of years beforn tho ('ancas-t ian came.

Soldiers' Home Oommlmon to Organize. Governor Patterson has notified tho members of tho commission created for tho establishment of a homo for indig ent soldiers nnd sailors that ho has Itxcd Tuesday, July M, at noon, at tho exe cutive department, as tho timo for tho organization of tho commission. Tho names of the commission aro Uoveinor Patlison, Stato Treasurer Livsoy, Au dltor General Nilcs, Senator Anil, Rep resentative T. J. Stewart, General Louis Wagner, John M. VAnderslioe, General James A- Reaver, General Robert 11. Heath, Representative I. H. IJrown. The Ulerks Like to Work. Tho government will bo tho gainer by an hundred or two huudred thous and dollars this summer tu tho saving of leaves of absence. Under ordinary conditions thcro would bo nn nvcrago of a thousand clerks on lcavo of ab- senco beginning tho first of July and continuing till tho first of October. Whether it is tho denghtltil wcainer, indifference to foreign attractions or tho influenco of tho now administra tion which keeps tho clerks hero is n matter of no moment. They aro hero and attending to business. Tho regu lar annual lcavo of thirty days has not been cut off ; they simply don't want to go. Nobody seems to bo growling about being compelled to work j they lovo to stay and help tho government along. Homo pcoplo are mean cnougn to say that thoy aro nfraid of being dismissed, but this is evidently a slan der. The Postal Department. Somo of tho criticisms and' com ments on tho now postal rates and all postal reductions and reforms in dulge tho apprehension that the lowcr- postago lees will roduco the revenues of tho postoftico department, iucreaso tho nnual dcncicnccs boyond their pres ent figure, and leave tho Bystetn, say S5,000,000 or 6,000,000 from self-sup port. Ucrtainly this is no very serious mat ter. Tho postofhee department is tho ono of tho most general convenience. Tho transmissson of tho news and let ters of tho people affects every com munity and interests every citizen. It reaches to every cross-roads and pene trates the remotest corners of tho count ry. In tho moro populous sections, it is far moro than all tho expenses of postoflices and post routes. Tho de ficiencies result from tho largo oxpense of getting a meagre amount of mail matter to tho far distant portions of tho country. This tho government ought to pay for, upon tho samo prin ciple th.'i t supports tho army, the navy and the other bureaus of publio service. Twenty- Five Thousand pointed- Democrats Ap- A Washington correspondent says tho Rcpulican clerks, postmasters, in ternal revenue collectors, eta, who havo been discharged during tho past four months, to be replaced by Demo crats, is much larger than is generally known. Tho changes havo boen so gradual that tho casual looker-on has Tailed to noto their total. Tho numb er of revenue collectors is eighty-five; sinco the 4th of March about sixty Democrats havo been appointed to tako tho places of Republican collectors. Each collector has under him from fifty to ono hundred employes, and all theso aro being constantly changed. It is the same with tho custom offices and post offices. It is no exaggeration to say that fully 25,000 Democrats have been appointed to olhco during Presi dent Cleveland's Bhort administration. At this rato only about six months will be required to chauzo tho entire per sonnel of the Government, but tho pro labilities aro tho changes will proceed much faster now that the new heads of departments, bureaus and divisions havo come to know their ground, and foil less dependent upon tho old and trained, but tricky Republican office holders. tJtay East, Young Han, Stay East- Idaho Corrospondonco Meadvllle Republican, A littlo advico to voung men wish ing to emigrate to tho West. If you are coming for tho pleasure to find out tho ways of tho West and have some fuu come along ; you can get plenty of that. If coming with tho expectation of filling your purso with golden mon ey by day's work.stay at homo and dig among the pino stumps uutil times get a littlo better, The cars aro loaded every day with such young men, who VYUUM UtUU; IU UiUir UL'BMIIlUlfJU I1I1U no work and an empty purse. Tho only thing for them to do next is to dead.baat their way back by riding bo tween freight earn orconcial themselves in box cars,lf thoy can bo found empty not quito as desirable a way as they cimo. There was a young man recent ly, after being kicked off tho train sev eral simes, was asked by tho conductor whero ho, was going, said: "I havo start ed for St, Paul and intond to go thoro if tho seat of my pants holds out." "The Destiiiy"of England. ino oesiiny oi England, tuough wo may bo tho first to speak it. is at this moment in the hands of two men tho Marquis of Salisbury and tho Erl of ty , . T r . . . vuruuvon, oi y wiiiiui a row months) the samo age. All through their aca demic career at Oxford, which thev en tered together and of which the ono is now Uianceuor and tho other Iliah Steward, they wero as brothors in their friendship. As in their acadeniio car eer, so all through their political ono iuoy navo maintained without a mom onva severance this almost romantic friendship. Wheu Lord Salisbury se ceded from the fjerby-uuracli Minis try, in 1800, Lord Carnavon seoeded with him. Thoy havo passod most of their time together tho Carnavons bfing nt Hatfield House or tho Salis- burys ut llihghcltro Castle and their thought on ail questions of tho hour is one, At Oxford, Lord Carna you far outshone- Lord Salisbury though he ran a distinguished careor, too bung ho most brilliant man liiero oi many years and regarded as the promise of future statesmanship. Hut when they camo to battlo on tho broader field of lifo Salisbury proved the stronger, cniciiy in consequence oi tlio excessive nervousness ot Lord Car navon in speaking, which makes it for sometime after his opening painful to listen to him. Otherwise his speeches aro as periect in stylo- as it dressed by muses of Falkland. Theso men are so immeasurably superior to their coltea gues, who are a very common placo crew, with tho exception of Lord Ran dolph Churchill, that their views will absolutely govern. Lord Kandoldh will bo set to starling round tho count ry and organizing, with I ho knowledgo winch his connection witji this country I j ns brought, a Conservativo caucus system, with torchlight processions and other claptrap pnuompniilmeiitti, while Salisbury an J Curnayou seize as 1'orclL'il .Secretary ami i.ord Uouteu nut tho two great questions of tho hour World. Dcath of a Rich Wilkesbarrcan. Jameson llnrvoy, aged 80, ono of tho oldest citizens of tho Wyoming valloy, died at Wilkesbarro Saturday morning. Ho was tho first extensive opcrntcr and shipper of coal in tho an thrncito region, continuing up to 18G3, when ho retired from nctlvo business with n large fortune. Ho was a son of Elisha llarvoy. who was prominent among tho Wyoming settlers, nnd who was mado prisoner liy tho Indians in 1780 and conveyed to Canada. Do ceased leaves an estato of over 82,000,-000. Unwelcome Keturn of a Husband. In 18G5 John Gilbert, a fanner of Huntingdon county, with his wife and infant daughter, removed to Shelby county, III. Failing to obtain employ ment there, ho left his family nnd con tinued his westward journey alone, promising to return in six months. Not returning nt the time appointed, his wife and daughter came back to Huntingdon. About three years ago, nftcr a lapso of Boventecn yoars, Mrs. Gilbert who could learn nothing of tho whereabouts of her husband, and be lieving him to bo dead, married Chris tian Colestock, of Huntingdon, a de crepit old man, who died n fow months nfter tho marriage, leaving his widow considerably valuable property. On Wednesday night, to the astonishment of every body and particular by Mrs. Colcstock, Jno. (Wbort, her first hus band, arrived home, footsore and weary, and sought lodging at tho res idenco of his daughter, whero ho was kindly received. Mrs Colestock, how over, though acknowledging his iden tity, refused to receive him as her law ful husband, and dismissed him with bitter reproaches. Whether Mrs. Gilbert-Colestoek will bo entitled to tho pensonalty and dower in tho realty descending from Christian Colestock is tho legal question that will now bo raised in tho settlement of tho estate. The Heathen Ohinee. A 0001) STOKV ONT11K BUSINESS SIIRKWD NESS Or ONE OF THE l-'I.OWBUY KINGDOM. That a Chinaman havo more in their heads than fino-tooth comb can bring out, is well illustrated in tho following Btory: It was about a Mongolian iu San Francisco, who walked into a b:rd cago store in that city, and offered to work a year without pay if in return ho was instructed in bird-cago making. It was a great offer, and tho whito man jumped at it. The Chinaman kept his contract, and worked faithfully for twelvo months. Tho morning fol lowing tho expiration of tho term, tho whito man was surprised to seo tUb shutters taken from tho windows of a long, vacant store immediately oppo site, and within the succeeding hour he also saw tho place taken possession of by about twenty Chinamen, every ono of whom was carrying as many bird cages as ho could without dropping any. spreading tno stock in tho most advantageous way possible, thoy next hung out signs announcing $1 bird cages for 82 and dollar ones for fifty cents. Tho competition was so ruinous as to send tho whito man into bank ruptcy within a month. Tho cages wero "not stolon, but the onto Ce lestial all during his apprenticeship had been running a night class in cage- making down in the Chinese quarter, and when his term ended ho started this co operativo storo with his adept pupils. A Rattlesnake's Involuntary Ukase. Mr. John Whito, living a few miles from Hawley, Pa.,wcnt out on tho hills near her houso a few days ago to look tho huckleberry barrens over and boo what tho prospect was tor tho berry season. While standing at tho sido of an old road she heard a rattlesnake sound its rattle immediately behind her, nnd then felt a tug at the skirt of bcr dress, oho looked around quickly, and saw that a big rattlesnake had struck at her, and that its fangs wero fast in tho bottom of her dress skirt. Mrs. White started on a run for home. Tho snake's fangs wero so securely fas tened in the dress that the suako was carried along. Mrs. Whito ran so fast tho rattlesnako was whipped and tossed about liko tho tail of a kite. Tho distanco to tho houso was a quarter of a mile, and when Mrs. Whito reached her door she was bo much overcome by exhaustion and fright that sho fainted on the steps. Her daughter ran to her assistance. When eho Bav tho snake, with its teeth fast in her mother's dress, sho did not stop to investigato matters further, but ran screaming to a neighbor's half a milo away. Sho stiposcd that tho snake had bitten her mother and killed her, and bo announced when sho reached the neighbor's. A man ran back to Mrs. Wbito's. She had recovered sufficiently to crawl into the house. The snako was still fast in her dress, but was dead. Tho thrashing on tho stones and against the ground that it had received had beaten the lifo out of it. Tho snako was four feet long and had seven rattles. Why Jump was Killed Till! IIOMANTIO STOItV OP TUG NOItTIUIJl. 1SKIU.ANI" murder, i A special from Northumberland to tho Scranton 'Truth furnishes tho fol lowing particulars in regard to tho Cox-Jump murder: Tho intense ex citement produced hero by tho murd er ot .Milo Jump, tonuorly ot oorantoii, by John T. Cox, proprietor of tho Palmer House, continues unabated. With tho lapso of timo comes out tho story which first brought about tho difference between Cox and his former employe, and which undoubtedly was tho cause of tho terrible murder. Dur ing Jump's employment nt tho Palmer Houso ho formed the acquaintance witli tho wifo of Cox, wliiuh it is open ly asserted, ripened into a familiarity which excited the husband's suspicions nnd finally a wrathy interview with wifo, iu wliioh ho severely whipped her, and then the disoharge of Jump from tho hotel's employ, with tho admoni tion that if hu ever entered tho build ing again it would be at his peiil. Tho men afterward met on tho street, and the enmity existing caused a quarrel to break out nt once, iu which Cox drew a revolver on Jump and pulled thu trigger, but it missed lire, and tho in terposition of lookers on saved Jump's life at that timo. Tho latter had a largo dirk in bis hand with which ho cut Cox severely in tho left arm. When Jump and tho young men of his party entered the Palmer Houso Thursday, ho did so moro on a banter from Ihoui that ho was afraid to outer He told them, however, that ho placod his life iu jeopardy in doing to. Cox was in tho reading room attached to tho bar when Jump and his companions came in, and when he recognized Jump's voice in reply to tho bartend er's remark that he could have nothing, ho got up from his seat, wont into the bar-room nnd approached Jump with tho remark, "Tou - - , did I not warn you novcr to enter this houso ? D-n you, got out. Jump startod for tho door, Cox drawing his rovolvor and following, but before tho door was reached ho seized Jump by tho right shoulder, drawing him partly around nnd firing sent tho bullet through tho heart of his victim, Jump exclaimed, "Oh my 1'' roclod and fell headlong through tho screen door lifeless upon tho stono steps. Cox went to Sunbury nnd surrender hirasclt to tho prison authorities. Ho is tho father of two children, and his wife feels keenly tho tragedy with which sho is openly charged with being ono of tho prime causes. Tho coroner's inquest return ed n verdict in accordance with tho facts already published. Jump's wife and child arrived hero from Scranton Friday evening, and she bitterly lamented tho sad ending of her bus band's life, weeping nnd bemoaning moslsorrowttilly over his body, and exciting tho most heartfelt sympathies of nil who witnessed this meeting of tho living with tho dead under theso most cruel circumstances. Ituvcucrcc It Valley. Is not tho lliicUhorn correspondent a lit tle hit oil when speaking ot tho Misses Tubbs of Denton, visiting their sister, Mrs. White, at Hint place ? Tho ladles referred to arc, no doubt, tho daughters ot Mr. Kil. Tubbs and reside In Fulnuount township, I.uzcrno county, nnd cousins of Hov. T. II. Tubbs, of lluckliorn. Wo havo no knowl edge of any Miss Tubbs in Benton town ship, who has yet entered her teens. AVe never wonder that young people In dulge In amusements, but that old men should stand by the hour pitching quoits Is not n littlo surprising. Every little hamlet has Its corps of pitchers, and Hcndcrtown Is not an exception. Your correspondent was aroused by tho murderous cries of a hen last week, which was tied to tho fence near by his sleeping apartment, nursing a brood of goslings. Supposing a mink or some other animal preying upon tho feathered baby trlbs, we hastily rushed to the rescue. Passing the wood-pllo wo seized a stick of stovowood, and on approaching saw something fast ened to tho hen which let go its hold on seeing us and immediately threw Itself on its back, showing light In self defense. Wo struck it a stunning blow, however, and on examination found it to bo a huge owl that measured over four feet from tip to tip of its wings Wo stuffed his owlshlp and intend keeping It as an ornament pre vious to establishing a museum. Notwithstanding tho chronic grumbling of farmers in early Spring on account of cold and lateness of tho season, despond ent of crop prospects, harvest, as usual, Is here, abundant and fair and evidently of nn excellent quality. "Seed time and har vest," wo aro promised, shall never fail and each year this promise Is verified beyond expectation, despite cold or heat, rain or draught, or any other condition ot climate. Michael Wenner, who lost three head of horses a year ugo last Winter, from a dis ease said to havo been diphtheria, has now a sick horse, which Is thought will most likely die.

Young America celebrated the glorious Fourth. We havo not heard of any lock jaw. fjCt tho young people nvnll themselves of their opportunity between this and tho first of October. No doubt tho new law will cut short much single blessedness on a count of thick Ico that must bo broken when It comes into effect. Farmers aro sowing buckwheat much earlier than in former years. We can as sign no reason for this except that they contcmplato early frost. Usually lato buckwheat fills tho best. The plantain leaf Is taking full possession of the soil and covering whole fields with their unsightly seed stnffs. It roots out everything and is said to be the worst pest that the soil is adapted to in the lino of weeds.
