FRIDAY, JANUARY 20, 1888.
K. P. Klaner, of Hndeton, wan elect
od chairman of tho Democratic State
Committee, on Wednesday aftcrnoou
ntHarriaburpr, defeating Dallas Sanders
of Philadelphia.
Demooraoy the Safety of tho People-
Tho Qoorgo party, which mot a seri
ons defeat under the name of the
"United Labor'1 party, is, casting about
for another name. But tho name it
had was as delusive a one as possible,
and, if that party goes fatthcr in searoh
of names, it will probably faro worse.
It may not bo absolutely true that
"there's nothing in a name," but what
ever magio aiiy namo may possess,
sensible people will always look under
neath to see what it really covers.
It was not tho namo "United Labor"
that brought misfortune to the ticket
with that name stamped upon it, but
the vague and impracticable theories
pat forth by those who led in its sup
port. "Tho abolition of poverty" is an
absurdity. But muoh can bo done,
nevertheless, to remove restriotivo legis
lation passed in the interest of favored
classes. Tho Democrallo party is freo
enough and strong enough to meet every
want of tho people that can be law
fully met, aud if it is slow at times in
working out needed reforms, it is only
because those who belie. yo and wish
for these reforms do not make their
power felt in its councils. Whenever
the Democratic party falls short of do
ing its duty fully and promptly, none
are so muoh to blame as those wno do
not insist that the party shall do its
duty instead of Biiilering their needs to
be unheard and leaving their party t'
drift undr tho leadership of time serv
ers who aro always ready to make the
most humiliating compromises to attain
their ends, and who for the sake of
temporary success are indifferent to
any disasters, however great, that may
result afterwards from their short-sighted
policies.
Those who would abolish discrimi
nating laws and who would adopt suoh
measures as, though they may cot pro
vide, will open tho wav to prosperity
for tho greatest possible number ol the
people, should cast their lot with that
party which has been the historio part)
of the people. Tin Democracy ha
ever demanded the greatest possible
freedom of speeoh and action In so far
' as that freedom did not threaten or
attack the rights of the person or of
property. Its opponent, under first
one namo and then another, has always
been the advocate of restrictions that
bare been b nofinial to a few, whilst
they have been offensive and oppress
ive to many. Freedom in speech, suf
frage, trade, religion, has been the
great guiding principle, of Democracy.
The resttiotion of all these rights has
been the characteristic policy of its
opponent. Men who would develop
the individual and save him from being
metalized into a mero machine, who
would rescue tho people from the ser
vile task of rearing any favored class
and being made to pay tribute to it,
who would welcome to the co-operation
of free citizenship in this land of
liberty men of every rivilized national
ity, and every religious creed, wilt ulti
mately find the fulfillment of their
hopes, the reward of their labors, in the
Democratic party. Those who would
make some new and pnoertain theory
the excuse for trying to entice away
its members are only trying to weaken
its force and at the same time to
strengthen the power of its adversary.
Suoh names as "Anti-Poverty,"
"United Labor'' and "Reform" are mere
catch wonls,whnse only tor vice is in-
BiaiouBiy to oeirav meinDera ot the-
Democratic household into forsaking
the party of their love and into lending
unconscious aid to the arrogant pro
moters of concentration of wealth and
of centralisation of governmental pow
er. Democratic principles are historic.
They can bo seen and known by al
who earnestly wish to ao and knou
tbem. They may be obscured for a
time by juggelry of political trioksters,
but they shine out in time as brilliant
ly as ever. Democratic principles and
the men that devoutly believe in them
and earnestly proclaim t hem, sometiruee
find their most dangerous enemies in
men who, awkwardly wearing the name
of Democrat, never bad a Democratic
thought or Democralio feeling, and
wboso peculiar appetites relish nothing
so much as those insipid words, "avail
ability" and "expediency." But those
who see these evils can best meet the
foes of Democraoy, in and out of the
party, by a determined effort fci assert
aud maintain at all times the historic
principles of Democraoy principle
that have stood the severest tests and
have grown stronger in resistance.
Not by abandoning Democracy, but
by nourishing and strengthening it,
can men, animated by Democratic
sentiments, serve the people bust.
Richmond ( Va ) State.
The Beading Strike.
The strike of the Reading miners
seems to be fettling down for a test of
endurance. We would gladly present
a more hopeful view of the conflict,
but the facts do not warrant it.
The positions of the contending
parties can be clearly stated in very
few words. The miners claim an in
oreaso of eight per cent, in then
wages, and they struck for the increase
without nrst exhausting ettorts tor
conference or arbitration. They claim
that they aro justly ertitleu to the in
crease, and they now declare theii
willingness to arbitrate tho question.
The Reading corporations decline
arbitration because, at, they state, they
mine only about twenty-two per cent.
of the anthracite output, and they
cannot pay higher wages than otheis
and oompete with them in tho mar
kets. Tbey also regard tho railway
Strike, aud the more or less sympathet
ic miners strike that iollowed it, as
menace to the oontrol of the property
ot common carriers, that is indispns
ante under me taws oi tuu state.
After all the chaff is winnowed
away from tho isue, tho marrow of
the duputu is fairly presented in the
foregoiug brief paragraph. Arbitra
tion being refused with miners, it is
now reasonably certain that the rail
way and the miners' strikes will pool
their issues and make a stand for the
maintenance of the labor organizations.
If the oontrst fhall assume that a-p'ct,
a long and costly conflict may bo an
ticlpited.
In all contents between employeis
and employed, the demagogue ever
mele in the tempest of passion, lit
seeks to inflame prejudices which in
tha end must bo overcome) he alms to
widen the ormsui that must be orossed
sooner or laterj but as the domagoguo
is usually paid, howover striken may
starve, he has nothing to loso by in
flammatory speech and effort.
Assuming that the strike may be
come an issue for the maintenance of i
organized labor, and that It will be
urged as a noceeslty to vindicate tho
finnciplo of associated t ffort by work
ngraen, tho cooler and more prudent I
its leaders shall be, tho bettor will be i
its prospect of success. And If or-,
eanizod labor is to battle for tho
principle, of organized labor, It must
be true to Itself. It must strike onlj
when tho laws of Its organization com
mands it, and it must In overy way re-1
speot its own laws if it would seoure
for them the respect of others.
At Droserit we see no reasonable
hopo of early settlement, of tho Road
Ing strike. True, tho unexpected of
ton happens In ending strikes as it
often happons in precipitating striker,
and wo can only hopo that the nnex
peotcd will speedily deliver tho Read
in? dismlanU from themselves.

Washington. D. 0., Jan. 10, 1888.
During the past wook, a rather im.
pressivo soeno was witnessed in tho
Senate, whon Wra. E. Chandler, who,
by reason of bis notorious connection
with the Hayes and Tildcn campaign,
is a living monument of tho purity o
olecttous, stood forth as tho champion
of a free aud fair count in the soutt
A fow years ago, when Jay A. Hub
bell, then in tho house, was distribul
ing tho republican oorrnption fund to
oairy .Indiana, a speeoh from his te
buking the practice of ming money t
infJnenou votes would have been full)
as refreshing and eff olive as was Mr.
Chandler's lato effort Tho New
Hampshire extremist was discussing
the municipal election al Jackson, Mis
susippi, with which congress has n
more to do than with the eleciion of a
church deacon in "No Man's Land. '
But tho real object of the republican
was to provoke a sectional con'ri ve-y
for the purpose ot defeating Mr. La
mar's confirmation, in which they wer
tdgnally disappointed by the tact of
the democrats. Mr. Riddlebcrger spoko
right out and said there was no con
cealment of the fact that the resolu
tion was designed to bear upon a mat
ter that should be considered only in
executive session, and d dared his in
tention to vote for Mr. Lamar. Sen
ator Stowart of Nevada, has tnado the
samo announcement of his intention.
Among other republican senators ex
Meeting to vote tho same way are
Messrs. Sabin, Saw)er and Cameron.
This case will probably be brought up
for consid ration to-day. As the La
mar nomination comes first on the sen
ate calendar, it must be aeted upon
before tho nominations of Messrs.
Vilas and Dickson are considered.
As indicated in my first letter, Gen. I
Edward S. Bragg, a former Wisconsin
congressman, has been appointed as
Minister to Mexico, and I still think
Mr. Stockslsger will be promoted to
the vacant commissionersbip of the
Land Office.
Another Western Congressman is in
trouble with his former hndlady. Sb
was very kind and dt voted to the con
gressman's sick child, bat it appears
that she transferred her tendor feelings
from the daughter to the father, and
that she claims to be his wife, whioh
allegation he denies and defies her to
prove it To say the least of it, the
congressman was guilty of indiscretion
and is now paying the penalty of his
folly.
The politicians of Washington are
much exercised over two important lo
o.al Federal officers that havt lately be
come vaoant by limitation the United

well believe, there is no nck of appli-'
cants. It is thought that both places ,
will be filled with good democrats in a
few days. j
Many democrats are complaining'
about the appointment of one Le
Barnes to be clerk of the committee on j
Public Lands of the hnut-e, at a salary,
of $2500 per annum. This was a re
publican, and for twelve years held a
82200 law clerkship in the General
Laud offiV, from whioh he had only
been disinn-S' d a week. This is turn
ing the ra-cals out with a vengeance 1
liapy Le Barnes 1 his d capitation was
a blessing in disguise, sinoe he is there-.
by promoted. j
Since the holiday recess, a thousand
bills have been introduced in oongress,
but of that number only one has
passed both houses, and that is the bill
fixing the salary of the Fish Commis
sioner an official whose services have
heretofore been gratis at five thou
sand dollars per annum.
The house has pasxed a bill deciding
what shall and what shall not bo writ
ten and printed on mail matter, and
the measure will probably pass tho
senate. Auothor bill "resented in the
house, in lieu of the Dependent Pen
sion Bill, is an art to pay destitute
veterans the sum of eight dollars per
month, and there is a probability that
Much a moderate measure may become
a law. I
The Thobe Carlisle contested elec
tion case, as was apparent from tho
beginning, has completely collapsed, .
the report of tho Committee on Elec- j
Hons being practically unanimous in I
favor ot the Speakers right to bis seat.

ot It. 8. HolTuiin, Philadelphia, rubllsher.l
Notes. Thenco, ,1. c, from tho place
where ho replied to the rhurlwes from
Jerusalem. Tyro s celebrated city of
Fhenlcla, on the eastern coast of tho Medi
terranean tea twenty-one miles from 81 Jon.
It was a grent city In the timoof Joshua,
UH D. O. Blilon, probably tha oldostcltv
in the world. It was named after the grand
son of Noah, 2218 B. C (ten. x, 13. Canaan,
a descendant ot original Inhabitants of the
land. Bon of David, prophetlo title of the
Messiah.
V. 21. It is an easy, yet a sad and touching
thing to see Jesus on his way to Tyre and
Sldon. Why does he go therol Why docs
he turn his bock on his own country and go
to the Oentlleet Is not the reason plaint Did
not this deputation of Pharisees from Jerusa
lem, now ortended at his doctrine and their
own manifest discomfiture, mean an accusa
tion against Mm for heresy before the Ban
hedrimt And his hour was not yet come.
And so we see him on his lonely way. Ills
own country closing itse'f against him, and
he waiting for his decease, which he should
accomplish at Jerusalem.
V. 2i. Borne of the people of the land had
remained here since the time of Joshua, and
this woman was one ot their descendants.
And in her case, we notice
1. The tenderness of her appeal, Bhe
identifies herself completely with her daugh
ter. "Hare mercy upon mel" For the was
bound up with hor child, and the mercy ex
tended to hor would tell first upon herself.
S. The title by which she addressed blm,
"Thou Bon of David." And what right had
she to thlst In one tense, none. In another,
the highest and fullest. For, had the not
great noedl Had not he abundant means of
supply f And faith assured her that was the
most sacred claim. And
3. The case presented for relief. We do
not know the special form of this possession,
for there were divers forms of them. But
sho was "grievously Texed" by it, and her
mother's heart yearned for her relief. And
how does he receive her I
V. 23. He answered hor nothing. Was this
like him! Did it tell of hit gentle ministry,
who would not break the bruised reed nor
quench the smoking Mart Just at that point
it did not. Just at that point it rather
showed him to be cold, hard, unsympathii
ing. But is it much to believe that, as he
treated no two cases alike, to he taw in every
case the reasons that determined his mode of
treating itt Did he not see such reasons In
this caset And did he not took thus to show
her what her faith could do, and thus to
strengthen it I
V. 24. These words teem like a still far
ther repudiation of her claim. He was not
sent to her, L e., not primarily to her. "To
the Jew first" Is tho order of the divine man
ifestation. Did she know of this, "and also
to the OcntilesP Alas I who was to teach it
to herl Not the Jews, for tbey did not be
lieve it Not the Qentilee. for thoy did not
know it, Only the Divine Spirit could have
wrought this faith in her.
V. 25. There seems to have been a gather
ing of all her powers of unyielding resolve,
as, on hearing these chilling words, she came,
and throwing herself down before him cried
out: "Lord, help mel" Bhe would not be de
nied. V. 28-27. The trying of her faith was not
yet ended. Indeed, be teemed harder and
colder and sterner stilL What right had she
to tho children's bread f Was it. right to
take it from them and cost it to the dogs!
Now this might seem like a most unfeeling
rebuff. In one point of view it was to. But in
another it was just the medium through
which her deeply tried faith was toshino
gloriously forth. Anal to it was to her. It
was all just as he said. And tho asked for
no more than the privilege accorded to the
little dogs, i. e.,- that ot gathering up the
crumbs that fell from tho master's table.
V. 2a Her faith triumphed. Bhe had
reached the point he meant her to gain.
Forth from the master's lips burst the
graciously approving words: "O woman,
great is thy faith: Beit unto) thee even as
thou wilt."
V. 29. Had Jesus now accomplished the
real end and purpose of his visit to the coast
of Tjre and Sldon! Was the relief of this
troubled one his real objective point as his
teaching of that benighted one by Jacob's
well, was the reason why "He must needs
pass through Samaria!" John iv, 4. Bat his
end was gained; his enomles were thrown off
their pursuit, and he must by slow degrees,
return to his own people. Accordingly, he
departed thence; passed round the sources of
the Jordan, and come again to the eastern
shore of the tea. Here again hew(thdrew
himself from observation, by going up into a
mountain, but be could not be hid.
V. 30-31. The newt of his oomlng toon
spread. Every one had something to tell of
tho great teacher, and his wondrous words
and works. And the result was soon mani
fest. From all parts ot the country round
about, they brought unto him their sick.
Let us note the lessons the narrative may
teach us.
L Manifestly two opposing powers are
here one of sickness, one of health. One of
blight, tho other of blessing. One of death
and the other of life. For all the different
forms of disease aro only messengers in ad
vance of death. They all mean death. That
is the word they spell out, when written in
full Clearly, therefore, they are as the
master put, "the power of the enemy." They
are fruits on the tree of humanity, from the
blight of sin. So we say that every form of
bodily ailment is the work of tin, and there
fore of broken laws. This was on one tide.
What on the other!
The very antagonism of all this 1. e., Jesus,
as tho healer ot sin, commencing bis course
by healing sickness. And he himself tells us,
we may know that he hat power to do the
first, because he did the second. Every act
of healing, therefore, was a sign of what he
came to do. It showed to men the presence
of one who could deal with unseen cause and
to put away the visible result. It told too of
the coming day, when his work should be
fully unfolded.
GENERAL LXS80NS.
1. Had Jeaus been condemned by the coun
cil for heresy, he would, like Stephen, have
been stoned. But it was written of him that
he should hang on the tree, at the bearer of
our sin, and thus become a curse in our stead.
And so he quietly withdrew from the power
ot his enemies until the time when the chief
E Hosts should deliver him to the Oentiles, and
e be adjudged to the cross.
2. Lore always makes the sufferings of the
loved one its own. This Canaanltlsh woman's
firayer was, "Lord, help me;" while it was
ler daughter that needed help. Yet did not
the feci that daughter's sufferings more keen
ly than that daughter herseltl Even so the
Lord Jesus in his glory, felt as done to him
self, the persecution which Baul was direct
ing against bis people. He makes their causs
his own.
