Tlio President lias signed tho FiU
John Porter bill.
It ih reported tltnt Governor Curtin
will di'clinu a reiioininnlion for con
grew. Ho fuels Unit lio Is crowing
old mul tho oiii-roui duties of Ins posi
tion aro getting too heavy for him. If
ho adheres to this Intention it wiU bo
a great loss to his party and tho nation.
Major Montoolh, tho unsuccessful
oandidato for the republican nomina
tion for lieutenant governor, will prob
ably fall in line and support tho whole
ticket. Ills feelings have been sooth
ed by tho promiso of tho governorship
nomination m 1800. Tho result of
this fall's election may mako it neces
sary to give Beaver another vindication
by that time, and in that event Mori
tooth can get promises for 1894.
Our suggestion that Col. Freezo bo
taken up as tho Democratic candidate
for Stato senator from this county has
met with such favor that tho Col. has
yielded to the pressure that has been
brought to bear on him, and has con
sented to allow bin name to bo used in
that connection. Of course, ho will be
unanimously nominated by tho conven
tion. At tho Gettysburg reunion of veter
ans last week Col. A. Wilson Norris,
republican candidate for Auditor Gen
eral, iu an address charged thai Gen.
Sickles disobeyed orders at tho battle
of Gettysburg, and did not properly
support Gen. Reynolds. Gen. Sickles
was present, and in a subsequent speech
ho disputed Col. Norris' allegations.
Norris' criticism of tho tho Third
Corps and its commander is consider
ed as very ill-timed, and has aroused
great indignation among Gen. Sickles'
friends.
Tho Philadelphia l'ress, of tho 1st
inst. reached into tho wrong pigeon
holo fir a wood cut of Senator Davies,
tho republican candidate for lieutenant
governor, and got hold of a portrait of
some other man who does not bear tho
slightest resemblance to Mr. Davies.
Wo have known him for thirty years,
and at no timo did he over look like
tho l'ress picture. Tho l'ress calls
him W. II. Davies instead of W. T.
Davies, showing that they aro unfamil
iar with his name as well as his face.
Senator Davies ought to go to Philadel
phia and get an introduction to Air.
Charles Emory Smith.
Tho present indications aro that
Charles S. Wolfo will bo nominated
for Governor by the Prohibitionists.
Should he accept he will poll a large
vote. When ho nominated himself for
State treasurer as an independent re
publican a few years ago he received
50,000 votes. With tho prohibition
party thoroughly organized at his back,
he will receive a still greater support
irom republicans and prohibitionists.
Meanwhile the republican organs are
Dusp telling tno people about alleged
dissensions in tho democratic party,
hoping to draw attention away from
their own family Gghts.
Joshua L. Baily a leading citizen of
riuladelpma aud a strong Prohibition
ist in refering to the Republican Con
vention proceedings, says : "The
Prohibitionists will not bo influenced
by the so-called prohibition plank in
terjected into the platform by Mr.
Quay. If it had been offered a few
years ago it would havo been a move in
tbo right direction; now it is simply bait.
It comes too late. What wo want is a
prohibitory parly that will prohibit
Republicans see that their party is dis
inte grating in many States, while the
1 rolnbition party is gaining.- strength
daily. Pennsylvania will be a doubt
ful State for tho Republican party and
if it is lost to them tho party will be
wrecked. Tho Republican managers
who predicted that tho election of
Cleveland had set prohibition back for
twenty years wero mistaken. Jt was
their own party that was set ba;k. The
l'rolubltionists aro marching on.
Tho republican party claims to bo a
party of law and order, and yet it has
habitually ignored tho constitution of
the state. At tho Harrisburg conven
tion last week Mr. Rulings offered tho
loiiowing resolution :
"Resolved, That the Republican
party pledges itself to enforce articles
1G and 17 of tho Constitution, relating
to private corporations, railroads, tele
graphs ani canals, with appropriate
legislation.
Tho resolution was defeated, thus
showing that tho republican party is in
sincere in its professions; that it favors
monopolies, and refuses to oboy tho
mandates of the fundamental law of
tho state in declining to nndorso loeis
latiou that is positively commanded by
tho constitution. While pretending
great lrieudsuip lor tho laboring mass
es, it bows beforo the great corpora
tions Riibscrviontly aud makes them
tho great power of the state instead
of tho constitution adopted by the
solemn act of tho people. When tho
Democratic convention meets next
month thcro will bo no cowardico in
its demand for an enforcement of tho
constitution, and against monopolies of
every kind. It docs not bow the sup
pliant knee beforo railroad companies
through iear or favor.
Tbo Evening Telegraph, a republi
can paper of Philadelphia is not pleased
with its parly plattorm adopted last
week at tho Harrisburg convention.
Itsavs :
"As for tho platform, with its sordid
cringing to tho brave soldiers and sail,
org, and with its stale aud vapid tariff
plank, its bid for tho Grangers' antl
oleomargarino vote, its cowardly avoid-
anco of tho liquor question, its half-
Hearted utterance regarding railway
discrimination, its weak straddling and
intffectual mouthing on tho labor and
capital question, it U tho very ton nud

Mioken nbout auything, not a direct

Dear Boaver i Don't Talk.
Just nbout four years ago, when
General Beaver had been nominated
for Governor, an enterprising nows
paper correspondent desired to inter
view tho new Gubernatorial candidate,
and ho applied to Quay for a nolo of
introduction. Quay complacently look
his pencil out of his pocket, tore a slip
cf margin from an old letter nndwroto
on it "Dear Beaver s don't talk." Ho
scaled it up in an envelope, addressed
it to Goncral Beaver, and tho coi res
pondent rushed off to get his fondly
anticipated "beat" on his rivals, only
to find that Beaver shut up liko a
frightened clam alter gazing at Quay's
epigrammatio epistle. Quay obviously
know General Beaver better than Gen
eral Beaver know General Beaver, and
had tho advico of tho quiet leader of
piscatorial famo been studiously follow
ed by Beaver, there would bo fuwer
obstacles in hU effort to reach tho
Gubernatorial chair.
It was naturally expected of Gener
al Boaver that ho should appear beforo
the Convention when renominated for
Governor and present his acknowledg
ments in poison ; bat it certainly was
not expected that ho should mako a
most pitiable exhibition of his utter un
fitness for leadership that requires man
ly dovotion to conviction. Had Quay
been less engaged in battles with dis
puting lcaders'who seik to dim his
laurels, ho would doubtless have cither
repeated his command for b'iIciico on
tho part of Beaver, or ho would havo
played tho rolo of tho bluo pencil liend
and struck out and interlined tho pio.
pared address of acccptnuco until whit
tled up and down to common sense ;
but it is evident that Beaver was neg
lected by Quay and ventured upon an
original speech of his own. Certainly
neither Quay nor any other leader of
even tolerable intelligence ever sug
gested or saw beforo its delivery tho
tollowing paragraph from Beaver's
speech, which is reported in precisely
tho samo language in nil tho puVliu
journals :
"I am not, my friends, in doubt as to
what aro tho principles which you pro
poso shall guide us in tho approaching
contest. You will declare for tho novor
fading principles of tho party of Lin
coln, of Sumner, of Garfield and of tho
immortal Graut. Thoy will novor die,
and in tho confident belief that lliu
wisdom of tho great leaders of tho
past havo guided you in tho building
of your platform I am willing to leave
to you tho declarations which wo shall
follow and accept your work, feeling
thai we will bo able to stand where
you will place us, and shall I say that
we shall lead tho banner to victory t"
Think of a man aspiring to tho first
honor of a great Stato that is second
to none in intelligence and an Empire
in wealth and progress, who thus
prates and babbles beforoja convention
that has given him an unanimous
nomination 1 Tho "never-fading prin
ciples of tho party of Lincoln, of Sum
ner, of Garfield and of the immortal
Grant" what are thoy t Sumner was
Grant's most relentless critic and led
In a national contest against tho "never
fading principles" of "tho immortal
Grant," and there is no party in exist
ence to-day that cannot quote Lincoln
in its vindication, whilo all shades of
Tariff men, from Cobdcn Club free
traders to monopoly protectionists, can
quoto Garfield in their dofense. Had
this utteranco been merely a rhetorical
flourish to grace nn exordium of a
speech to be followed by something
manly and heroic,it could be pardoned;
but when it is followed only by tho
most abject subordination of all con
viction, and all declarations on politi
cal issues, to a lot of mere exped
iency leaders, it is simply pitiable in a
Gubernatorial candidate.
Think of a Republican who aspired
to the first office of Pennsylvania a
quarter of a century ago, declaring "I
am willing to leave to you the declara
tions which wo shall follow and accept
your work I'1 A man who thus con
fessed his want of conviction and his
willingness to follow ihe unknown
declarations of others, addressing a
Republican State Convention in the
days when Republicanism meant tho
profoundest convictions and tho bold
est expressions and actions, would have
been hissed from tbo stand and strip
ped of his leadership j but in this age
of universal schools and newspapers,
General Beaver rises iu a convention
to accept a Gubcrnational nomination
and confessei that ho leaves to Quay,
Magee, Cooper, Cessna and a conclavo
of expedienoy schemers, who havo no
conviction beyond winning a political
battle at any cost of honest public sen
timent, "tbo declarations which wo
shall follow." Liko candidate, like

ple of Pennsylvania without a singlo
clearly defined conviction applicablo to
tho present ; both will offend tho hon
est judgment of tho people, and tbo
more such champions as General
Beaver rush into public discussions,tho
more thoy must invito contempt upon
themselves and their cause. Thero is
only ono path of safety to General
Beaver in this battle, and that is

Republican Platform.
Tho following is tho platform adopt
ed at tho republican convention at
Harrisburg last week :
To the end that our industries may
bo systematically developed, our com-
meico extended, labor rcceivo its inst
rewards and capital find remunerative
employment, wu demand that tho sys
tem ot protection known as tbo
American system of protection which
has been re-established, built up and
fostered by the Republican party for
twenty-five years, bo mantained iu its
integrity. And wo demand further
that this Bystem under which the
wealth of this country has been raoro
than trebled in n single generation, and
which affords a fair and liberal pro
tection to our agricultural and manu
facturing interests and tho individual
classes employed iu connection there
with, bo also extended lo our custo
mers, so that by tho establishment and
maintenance of a commercial marine
wo may diversify industry, find now
channels for tho overcrowded ranks of
labor, mako use of tho products of tho
forest, minu and mill in building our
own ships and provido for tho nation's
defense as well as the preservation of
its honor by training a body of mon
for service upon the seas, furnishing
ships which can bo transferee! to tho
service of tho nation iu ease of need
nud scouring the establishment of ship
yards and machinery which will enable
us as a nation to construct entirely
within ourselves, when necessity re
quires, a navy which can meet tho de
mands of modern naval warfare.
Wiii:i:as, Thero is nn evident desire
on tho part of a largo number of in
telligoiit and resoestnblo citizens of
Pennsylvania lo amend tlio Uonslltii
linn by imorting a olause prohibiting
the manufacture and sale of intoxicat
ing drink as beveingo within tho limits
ot tins common wealth ; thereiorc.
Jlcsolved, That It is the opinion
and judgment of this convention that
tho Legislature of tho Stato should at
onco adopt measures providing for tho
submission of this great question to a
voto of tho peoplo in accordance with
tho truQ.ppiril of our frco institutions.
"Mcsolvtif, That the Republicans
of Pennsylvania demand of Congress
that tho limitation of arrears of pen
sion bills, whereby unjust discrimina
tion was mado against applicants of
pensions after Juno 30, 1880, should
bo repealed and all Boldicrs and Bailors
entitled to pensions should sharo
equally and justly In tho payment of
claims by tho Government.
"Jlcsolved, That the Republican
party of Pennsylvania places them
solves on record ngainst tho disfran
chisement of tho colored vote, como
from what sourco It may, by intimida
tion by tissue ballotN, by false count,
or by amendment of tho Constitution,
or by Congressional action.
"Jlcsolved, That we npprovo tho bill
which has received tho almost unan
imous endorsement of tho United States
Senate and is no pending iu tho
House of Representatives as regulating
commerce between tho States, aud call
upon tho Legislature to accept a like
mcasuie to regulato and supcrviso
freight charges within the State, Wo
deprecato the infamous work of im
porting foreign pauper labor, criminal
and contract labor, and tho products
of European criminal labor, and de
mand tlio pa.ssago of a national law
summarily and positively prohibiting
such importation under any pretext
whatover. Tho products of tho farm
and dairy should not bo lost sight of
in tho list of tho American industries
to bo protected under tho American
system, and both National and Stato
Legislatures should protect them from
dangerous and unjust competition, and
from nuy or all counterfeits. Our hos
tility is liknwisc proclaimed to tho Mor
rison bill, not only becauso it is an ad
vanced stop in "tho direction of free
trade, but becauso it designs to permit
raw material to bo imported free and
strikes at the prosperity of tho farm,
tho minu and tho workshop.
Labor and capital are ot right, and
should be, through custom and law as
mutual as man and wif, and to tho
end that the mutual relations shall bu
strengthened, wo advocate at the hands
of the National Congress and of all
State Legislatures tho enactment of
proper laws airording facilities for con
ferenco and arbitration based upon tho
principlo that all men aro free and
equal, and directly recognizing the
equality of all tho interests involved
the workers, tho employers and tlio
peoplo at large.
'We bring an indictment against
the present Democratio national admin
istration for its inconsistency, indiffer
ence, and inetlicency which has been
alike inconsistent iu tho methods em
ployed to promote promised reform,
indifference to our individual and com
mercial interests, and inefficient through
lack of experience and ability to meet
any of tho grao questions of tho day.
WASHINGTON LETTER
(From our Regular Correspondent.
Washington. D. C.. July C, 1880.
Congress Iuih been wrangling all
week over tho money bills which pro
vide for running the Government dur
ing the next Fiscal year. Tho Bubjeet
sounds liko a dry one, but tho Con
gressional debates have not been dull.
Appropriation bills always provoke
t'luch disagreement and afford an
opportunity for discussing tho compar
ative extravagance and economy oi
tho two parties.
The nations balance sheet has just
been drawn up again. Tho Govern
ment's book-keepers havo footed up
their acoouuts for tho fiscal year that
camo to an end on Jnne 30th., and tho
figures aro oven moro satisfactory than
could havo been expected. Tho ro
ceipts exceeded the expenditures by
800,528,.) 10. The receipts and expen
diture for tho fiscal year compared
wiih the last proceeding one, show an
increase of revenue of about $12,300,-
000 and a decrease in tho expenditures
of about 14,500,000. Customs re
ceipts aro some 811,000,000 better, in
ternal rovenuo $-1, 500,000 and miscel
laneous some $3,000,000. Tho ordi
nary expenses aro $22,100,000 less than
last year, interest is nearly $1,000,000
less and pensions are $8,000,000 more.
ice, during the yrar inst closed the
Pension Office isnul 81,122 pension
certificates, a larger number by 0,721
than ever wero issued in any previous
year. And when it is remembered
that this immense work has been per
formed with a forco of clerks less by
over 100 than for tho previous, thero
seems to bo sufficient reason for con
gratulating tho present Commichioner
of Pensions, Gen. Black upon retrench
ment in his olhce.
At a recent Cabinet meeting .ho
mention of how many telephones were
in iiso at tho several executive depart
ments of the Government in this city
camo up. Tho l resident asked each
ot his secretaries how many tho do
partment over which ho presided used.
1 bo Attorney General said two. Scc-
retaiy Lamar gave what ho thought
was his number, and so on around.
They made up about fifty altogether.
The picsideni asked them to look into
tho matter nnd report at the next meet
ing. They did and Attorney General
Garland 'was tho only ono who had
made a correct return. Tho total was
ono hundred and fifty. Tho average
cost of each telephone becauso tho
departments havo a number of special
wires, is isiuu a year.
Thus lor telephonic service lor the
departments in this city alone, tho
Government pays nearly $15,000 a
year. This was thought to bo too high
by tho Cabinet oflicors and retrench
ment in this lino has begun. Fifteen
telephones havo already been taken out
of tho Treasury department, leaving
only ono on each floor.
Tho salaries of Government clerks
comes out of the Legislative, Execu
tive nnd Judicial Appropriation bill.
Tho failure of Congress lo pass it by
the closo ot iho old hscat year caused
nn unusual outlook for tho now. Tho
departments openod on trust July 1st,
it being against tho law to mako any
contracts for services in excess of ap
propriations. "So you aro without pay"
was tho remark undo to a government
olcik, "that must bu uncomfortable
Ho showed no anxiety on tho subject
however. Said he, "tho pay of mem
bers of Congress is provided for iu this
appropriation bill lust tho samo as
inlno is. ao you see 1 am all light
Every Congressman will see that 1 mn
provided tor in lime.
It was Senator Riddleberger who in
troduccd tho bill to rcduco tho salaries
of Congressmen and certain high offi
cials twenty 11 vo per cert. This re
minds me of tbo difficulty of getting
good business men to take tho lespou
siblo places iu tho departments. There
is no trouble at all iu getting moro
politicians for theso places but it has
been tho President's idea to get good
business men, ouch men come here
occasionally tempted by tho allure
mentH of office, although they can do
much better In private life, for In
8lanop,tho U. S. Treasurer, Mr. Jordan
has n standing office In private lifo of
oxnetly dotiblo what ho receiver in his
present ofllolal position. Ho is con
sidered, by tho way, tho nblcst treasur
er that has filled that ofilco sinco it
was first created.
Secretary Lamar recently asked a
wealthy business man to hunt him up
a good business man for Chief clerk of
tho Intorior department. How much
can you pay such n man t inquired tho
capitalist, who, himself, employes
about four hundred men. Twcnty-flvu
hundred dollars, replied tho Secretary.
Oh, said tho visitor, I cannot furnish
him. I pay $10,000 n year for tho
services of such n man ns you havo de
scribed. Tho now administration has
been fortunate howuvcr, in fccuring
tho services of mon lo. whom it would
bo economy to pay very largo salaries
iu older to retain them.
Cleveland a Democratio Lincoln,
Tho politicians did not liko Presi
dent Lincoln. They would huvo push
ed him aside at the end of his first
term If it had lain in their power. Tho
barrier in tho way was tho confidence
reposed in him by tho sovereign people.
Tho situation at this timo is not dis
similar. President Cleveland has not
pleased thu politicians, either of his own
parly or of tho opposition j but every
day it becomes more nnd moro mani
fest that tho people both the Demo
crats who took him on trust and the Re
publicans who distiust him aro behind
him backing him. His sturdy honesty
pleases them. Tho wiser politicians,
seeing the drift of the popular current

Finally, on tho recommendation ot W. J.

"Tlio peoulo'slaw is habitually violated,
evaded and tlelied."
''No frto government can long oxist
where the organic law ot tlio state
is habitually ilctiru. '
'Tho Constitution of 187-1 is not com
iniinUlic. It assails no light of
iiniiierty, nor does it kivi counto
tunica lo iripciilts which would
degrado or !enior;il.zu society.
'Tlio Constitiitii'ii cannot wholly on
forcu itself, nor could it provide
detailed retaliations lor its en
foicemrnl; these mut bo provided
bv tho J.cjjuiaiine.
"In the rp'k'Cuion of members of Iho
Legislature at the next geneial
eleeliop, sHcet only such as aio
pledged lo the long-neglected
work ol Uni.ftitntional enlorci
tnent." From address of Consti
lutional Committee, 1880.
Tlio people, through the ballot box,
nhould upon all laws, sumptuary
or organic, have an opportunity to
express then' opinion, beloro bo
coming a settled law. Let nil be
equal beforo law. No monopoly,
no aristocracy.
Democrats of Columbia County: The
above are my senliineiits and if nomi
