The Columbian. 0. E. Elwell, rji, J. K. BlUnnbondsr.J "Hon. BLOOMSBURG, PA. Fill DAY, OCTONUIi 9, 1885. Tlio l'lymoutli epidemic, cost ono 1 m ml red mid soven lives mid Hourly sixty thouaand dollars, not counting tho loss in wages from enforced idlo Hess of tho Hick nnd their oaro-takcra. A poHnl card to notify tho County Commissioners of n c.i9o of typhoid fuvcr in time to enable thorn to prevent tho up read of tho infection costs only a cent. When a young man picks tin tho editorial quill with tho 'expectation of (dialling tho earth from center to cir cumference with tho might of ills pro ductions ho is naturally disappointed when his efforts fall Hat. And when tho wind is knocked out of his relegation! by n plain statement ot facts, ho tnvaribly retorts by calling Ins opponent a "blackguard." This stylo of retort is considered somownat respectaulo ue causo of its old age. If wo remember rightly wo have seen tho words "billings gate, "blackguardism, "sournlous attacks" in print before. They nro good words when ono lias nothing clso to say. Thoyjiro always used as a last resort. Tho Columiiian is aheats strong for tho Democratic ticket anil has novcr wavered. When tho present editor of tho sentinel tailed to secure the nomi nation for Register and Itecordor for a fifth term, nnd ran as an independent candidate against tho regular nomineo of tho party that had kept mm in ot' fico for twclvo years, tho Coi.umihan was for tho ticket, and it was elected, When tho present owner of the Senti- i .1 i.r . ii i r 7tei tiseu ins liuiueiicu m nivur ui uiu republican candidato for protbonolary, becauso the democratic party refused to givo him a nomination for a third term, and after ho had bold othco at tho hands of tho party for nearly twen ty years, tho Columbian was for tho ticket; and it was elected. We aro democratic from principle, and our allegiance- to tho party is not measured by tho desiro to hold office, nor have wo ever betrayed tho party because of our failuro to capture tho spoils. The Blacks in the South. AN OI.D-T1MK ABOLITIONIST RKHUKES TUB IGNORANT ZEAL OV RKCKNT CONVERTS. . W. nit-glnson In tho Boston Advertiser. Surprise is sometimes expressed that old abolitionists liko James Freeman Clark and Francis W. Bird and my self should now bo lukewarm or in credulous about tho alledged "suppres sion of votes at the South," when tho causo of the suffering negro is being hotly argued by many who were not quite so sensativo to it in tho days when it cost something to tako that side. Tho explanation seems to rao very simple. Tho very fact that we are old abolitionists lias led us at least this is truo in my own case to study tho Southern question apart from tho bias of politics and to get our knowledge from tho very best sources our former clients themselves. I happened to command, during tho civil war, a large regiment of men who had been slaves in South Carolina, Georgia and Florida. Ever since tho war I have kept up a continuous though straggling and irregular correspond enco with the so men, mostly in regard to claims of pension. I havo seen some of them at tho North since tho war, and havo seen others in their own homes and places of business at tho South, those whom I havo thus met be ing usually tho moro capablo and tho moro prominent. Tho information re ceived from all these men goes to the samo point namely, to show that al though force and fraud havo undoubted ly been brought in, and sometimes out rageously in tho past, to intimidate tho negro vote in certain benighted locali ties this kind of interference is now altogether a subordinate factor in the question ; tho veal causos which impair tho Southern Republican vote lie in wholly other influences, most of which would havo much tho samo result in any other locality. Theso moro direct causes aro: (1) Tho ignoranco and poverty of the blacks, which has made it impossible that they should organizo and bring out their vote as against tho better educated and wealthier white.: (2) their disputes and sub-divisions among themselves ; a tendency which is illus trated by half the so-called "African churches" at tho North and largely tho result of tho samo ignorance ; (8) their dependence through poverty, upon white employers, generally Demo crats and having a tondency to dis chargo thoso who havo voted against them a tendency also not cenlined to tho South, as many Northern "mug wumps" havo found to their- cost ; (4) their disgust at the memory of the carpet ing governments, under which, as they found too late, thoy thcmsolves wcro only singed in tho fire, wliilo their Northern loapers got tho chestnuts; (.") tho abaenco of all viaiblo attempt by Republican? to hold meetings or fur nish political guidance to their South ern allies ; (0) tho failuro of tho Repnb lican party, whou in power, to fulfil its promises ; (7) tho death of Lincoln nnd now of Grant, tho only Northern pub lics pien whoso names wero really known in tho Southern cabins. All these, points of explanation havo come to me, not from my own specula tions, but from tho very men concern ed. Compared with theso influences, so far as I can form an opinion, vio lencu and tissue ballots nnd complicat ed ballot boxes aro wholly secondary. Theso causes havo had tho effect not ho much to transfer tho negro voto to tho Democratic) sldo as to impair and diminish it all together. All politicians admit that it is hard to bring out tho votes of tho very poor and ignorant unless they have a direct money inter cat in voting. Now, the bulk of tho negro voto at tlio South is still and long will bo of just this class. All jioliticans know how hard it is to bring out a largo voto in an off year. To tho mass of these sluggish voters among tho Southern voters it is always an off year. I must say that all the accii' mulcted speeches and resolutions of my Republican friends do not seem to mo to manifest so much common kciibo as tho brief remark of Sergeant Hnny Williams in my own parlor ; "Wo have mado up our minds to quit politics until wo havo education and proiieity i then, perhaps, wo will try politics again," or tho dill pithicr sny ing of tho old colored man in Atlanta to Edward Atkinson ; "Ycu can't put ignoranco on top of knowledge and make it stay there" J THE COLUMBIAN AND A public mcoting of business men was called for Thursday evening, Oct. 8th at tho Hoard of trndo Rooms, Phil adelphia to consider the question of tlio election of Statu Treasurer. It is tho purpose of this meeting to mako an effectual organization to inquire into the ability of tho candidates to conduct tlio ofiico of Stnto Troasuror upon busi ness principles ; and urgo tho election of tlio ono who wilt regard publio of fice, as a publia trust. Conrad li. Day tho democratic candidato for Stato Treasurer, has known only active bit sincss life. Ho hai not been In poli tics ; and if elected to tho ofllco of Stato Treasurer ho would attend to it on business principles as ho has dono everything else. Tho business people of Philadelphia, republican and demo crat, appreciate this and aro making every effect for his election. Vennalrania. Wlir TUB DEMOCRATS ARK CONFIDENT From the Philadelphia lleconl, ind. The lack of Republican interest in tho Republican campaign in this state cannot fail to impress tho most careless observer. Thero is a Hood reason lor it. Tho bosses and tho boys who hero toforo havo looked forwnrd to a somo' timo opportunity to share in tho spoils of Federal ofllco havo had tho door shut in their faces. Thoy now work without heart becauso they work with out hope. Tho ablest and most iittlncn tial Republican newspapers wcro ham strung by tho nomination mado by tho Republican stato convention. They cannot support tho ticket prepared for thorn without committing moral nan kari, and as a consequence tho canvass is left to drift along with no compe tent hand to keep it off tho rocks or from stioking in tho mud. Tho moro ambitious young republicans perceive that tho movement upon tho stato treasury is only a preliminary Btep toward moro substantial rewards, in volvine moreover V a continuance of power in tho hands of leaders entirely mercenary and unscrupulous, and off ering no particular inducement to them. Tho "kickers" who put tho value of honest government abovo partisanship ask themselves what is to Do gained by a republican victory this year, when tho bosses they havo aided in putting down aro again at tho front seeking to bo trusted with important publio tunct ions And so it is, the wholo Repub lican organization is suffering with an attack of thn megrims. lho quiet, apathetic monotony of indifforenco has finally been disturbed by tho organiza tion of Independent Republicans to oppose tho nomineo for stato treasurer. Ho is tho incarnation in politics of all that tho Independents detest. lie is a believer in machine politics and boss methods. He has been part and parcel of nil tho trickery and jobbery that have pervaded tho administration of stato affairs since he cut bis political eye-teeth, To elect him is to undo tho work of reform and to put back in power tho class of politicaos who, liko Falstaff, consider it rather a proper thing to rob tho public exchequer. There is a sound and solid Republi can majority in Pennsylvania which will bo mado sounder and solidnr for the important contest of next year if it is not handicapped by an unfortunate victory this year. Tho peoplo of tlio stato want proper railroad legislation, and thoy are heartily tired of tho sys tem of finance which permits the use of tho public money for tho promotion of partisan schemes. To ily in the faco of this desiro by tho election of a lobbyist of tho railroad companies and a dispenser of doubtful political patronage is a daring experiment with tho publio patience. Tho Independent Republicans show their independeuco to advantage when they refuso to havo any hand in it. Wo aro by no means suro that tho Blaino majority can be all whittled uway, but such things havo happened. Mr. Cleveland bad nearly 200,000 majority for governor of New York and only 1,200 for president WASHINGTON LETTER. From our Regular Correspondent.) Washington.!!). C. Oct. 5, 1885. Tho President has been very busy during tho past week. As tho short ening days betoken tho approach of tho congressional session, fresh do mands upon his lime and patience ap pear, and his work perceptibly increas es. The number of callers at his in formal reception grows larger every day, and few men could enduro tho strain that Mr. Cleveland and his pri vate secretary arc obliged to daily un dergo. But the former has a robust constitution, and as for Col Laraont, I know of no other slightly built, ner vous man who can accomplish bo much work, with no apparent fatigue. The President has greatly lightened his work by systematizing all his duties. Ho is cool, calm, self-contain cd, and naturally industrious, and with a happy faculty of concentrating his whoio attention nn each task, lie makes appointments and dismissals, answers correspondence, transacts business and receives visitors with equal facility. Ho is usually up by 7 o'clock and breakfasts at 8. After his morning meal, ho goes at onco Jto tho library, where he spends most of his timo. It is a largo elliptical room, on tho top floor of the mansion. Adjoining it nro his private suit of apartments, and tho room whero tho Cabinet meetings aro held. Col. I.amont's room opens into tho latter apartment. When tho President enters tho li. brarv, ho finds his private secretary waiting for him, and such letters and papers as rcquiro his special attention nro reaily on his big oaken desk on the bay window. Hero ho passes several hours in disposing of thn morning busi ness, when it it is timo for tho rccept lion. Tho ante-room on tho north sido of tho Mansion nro full of visitors, who, when tlio doors aro open, swarm toward tho library. They hand their cards to tho door keepers (who havo n quaint collection of cards, somo of which nro queer and even absurd.) Tho callers puss into tlio library or in to tho room of the privato secretary, for Col. Lamout has almost as many visitors as his chief. For a couple, of hours thero is nn unremitting rush for admission into tho rooms, Tho President stands up throughout. Ho mocs from man to man, and from group to group, having a pleasant word and a courtoous reply for nil who ad dress him. Kven to positivo bores ho is kindly, and it is pleasant to watch him when he finds ono of those rara avium who docs not want an oflice. Ho has humor nnd a keen sensu of wit, ii lid ho laughs easily and musically. Ho lias a power of repartee, which may be better known beforo ho leaves the White House. It has served him in many trying nnd annoying oonver catinns'diiring tho set on months that ho has been in ollioo. Tho interviews with mnny callers concluded, ho returns to his desk, whero iio works steadily, only interrupted by on occasional caller who has mado au engagement for somo hours in tho afternoon, uutil after fi o'clock. Then, if tho weather is pleasant, ho usually ?;os out for a walk or drive Ho pro era walking, nnd his favorito stroll is around by tho Washington Monument, a distant of noarly a milo. Eton when driving, ho frequently descends from tho enrriago nnd walks. He has two enrriages, a pretty littlo victoria mid a landau. Iio owns only two horses, a $1,000 team, and ho has bcon talking about getting a third horeo to iltl a place in caso ono of tho pair being indisposed. Ho is not especially fond of lho equine race, in which respect ho differs from his predecessor, in wheso tlmo(the slablo was full of thorough bred, and who used to drivo four-lb-hand. Tho President novcr ridcM in tho saddle, probably becauso of somo 'ccnsldoration of avordupois. In form er 'days when ho weighed less than 200 fiounds, horseback riding was a favor to amusement with him. A Wcatorn Senator, who was hero during the' week, says he has heard very littlo about tho Republican Sen ators fiahting tho President's nomina tions. Ho thinks that tlio President may possibly have a Bharp contest over tho "offensive partisan" issue, but ho believes that tho Republican Senators could not afford to mako any idle op position to him, and piny tho part of the dog-in-the-mangor. A Southern Congressman who was present during our interview, says that it is his opin ion that tho President will havo a very sharp fight with tho Senate. Ho was anxious to havo this fight come. Ho said nothing uould happen which would bo bettor for tho Democratic party. If the President becomes invol ved in a sharp war with tho Republi can Senators all Democratic differences will be forgotten. Oatawissa- Tho borough agitators have again been beaten. Tho causo is that they talk too much and say what they aro going to do, when they get the reins in their hands. Why ono of tho fore most agitators in tho movement wanted the peoplo not to keep any pigs in tho borough. Another wanted a park fix ed up over against tho hill. Well, gen tlemen, you may havo thoso things whon you get tho borough, but wo, laboring, want bread and butter a great deal worso than a borough and high taxei to staryo our families and lose our homes. Mr. John Kiofcr, a rcspectablo and highly esteemed citizen of this place, departed this life on last Friday in his seventy-eighth year. Ho had been a friend to tho poor, having spent his lifo principally upon his farm near tins pince. no nan neipeu w umiu i-liner's church twice in his lifetime. IIo was interred in Greenwood cemetery, Rov. Dechant ofticiating, who delivered an cloauent sermon from thn text: "Remember the Creator in tho Days of thy Youth."

Tho Columbian informed us last week that "in Fislilngcrcck township nro living six sisters who married six brothers." We cannot call to mind such a family. The nenrcust approach Is where six sisters mar ried two brothers in ench of threo differ cut families. Wo iilso knew i. family hi thu sumo township of three brothers who have each six sisters but only two married brothtrs, nnd thu aggregate weight of father, sons und daughters would score nearly u gross ton.
