NATIONAL. on "nnsiDENT, GROVKu CLEVELAND, of Now York. MR VICK IMIKSIIIKNT, ALLEN G. THURMAN, of Ohio. STATE. VOH JUDOE Of SUl'RKMK COURT, J. B. MoCOLLUM, of Susquehanna County. rOR PRKS1DKNT JUDGE Of THIS JUDICIAL DISTRICT, CHARLES G. BARKLEY, to be voted for at the next Democratic Dolcgato Election and County Con vention. It is Baid that Gov. Beaver will ap point Judgo McCollum to tho Supreme Bench to fill the vacancy caused by the death of Judgo Trunkey. E. R. Ikeleu desires to oall the attention of tho democratio voters of Columbia and Montour counties to tho announcement of his candidacy for the judgeship in another oolumn. Samuel J. Randall had a serious at tack of hemorrhage of the bowels last week, by whioh he was very much re duced in strength. lie is slowly im proving, though still a very sick man. The office of President Judgo is one in which every individual is personally interested, because it deals with tho rights of person and property of the people. Great care chould therefore be exorcised in the selection of a man for that position. Tho only issne is one of qualification, and upon that issue alone should tho selection of a candidate bemade. PARTY ORGANIZATION AND BOLTERS. Tho supremacy of tho Democratio party aliko in tho nation and tho county, depends upon fealty to tho party organization. It is impossible that everybody should always be satis fied with tho action of a county con vention and the candidates named by it, but no matter how bitter may bo tho oontest at the delegate election, after the voice of tho party is made known under the rules, it is true demo cracy to accept the situation gracefully and to cheerfully acquiesce in the act ion of the organization. This is the dnty of every Democratio voter, and it is In a far greater degree tho duty of every man who comes before the party seeking a nomination for office. He Ukes his chances, subject to party rules, and if by tho application of those rules ho is defeated, he owes it to himBelf as a man, and to the party as an organization, to accept the re sult, and support his successful oppon ent The man who nnder such circum stances not only refuses to support his successful competitor, but goes over into the camp of the enemy and open ly and vigorously advocates the cause of the republican candidate for the same office, is more than a bolter; he is a traitor. He forfeits all right to future recognition by the party which he has betrayed, and if he has the cheek to offer himself again as a can didate for office thy party ought to put upon him the sunup of condemnation with such force, that he and all others like him will understand that bolters and traitors are not to be rewarded for their peridv. If tho Democratio parly of Colum bia county proposes to pursue any different- coarse, and to indorse the action of men who have disregarded the party ruler, who have violated their promises to abide by those rules, who have be trayed the party and given their in fluence to republican candidates, then the party organization may as well bo abandoned. The delegate election be comes a mere matter of form, tho county convention becomes a useless expense, for the party proclaims pub licly that no one is bound by the ac tion of the convention, and, in fact, gives notice that those who hope to se cure nominations for county offices three or four years hence, must present a bolting record as one of tho neces sary qualifications. When the time shall come, if ever, that the party shall thus give notice that defeated candidates who bolt tho ticket and lend all their iufluence to republican candidates this year, may safely ask tor a nomination next year, then are the days of tho supremacy of the Democratic party in Columbia county nnmbored; and aa in other for merly strong Democratio counties the majorities have dwindled away nnder similar circumstances until tho opposi tion have control, bo here wo may look for nothing else, if bolting is to bo thus encouraged. As a direct application of what has been said nuove, wo print the follow ing from the Oatawissa Item of last week; The statement has teen made that Will iam Itr'ckbaurn, a candidate (or the Demo cratic nomination fur Representative on the "nsrtu sue," Doited me ticket in IScU.

WABniHQTON LETTER. Prom oar itegnlar Correspondent.) Washington, July 16th 1888. Commissioner Colman, of tho acrl cultural department has rcocivod an early and comploto vindication from tho charge mado by Gcnoral Grocloy, Chlof Signal Offioor, to tho Senate committooon Agriculture to tho effect mat uir. uoiman was working in an underhanded manner to get tho weath er bureau transferred to his department. Gen. Greeley has written n manly lot- tor to Sonator Palmer of that oommlt- tee, in which ho apologizes for having mado tho charge, having learned sinco that tho information upon whioh ho had based it wns erroneous; ho also askes Senator Palmer to assnro tho mombors of tho committco of his ro gret that ho should unintentionally navo piaccu a tugii omciai in a very wrong light. To thoso who know Mr. Colman, no vindication of anything ho has douo sinco ho becarao Commission er of Agriculture is necessary. It is for thoso who aro not fortunate enough to know tho man In all his rutrcod straight forwardness and honesty, that iuis is written. No subsidies for pot steamship lines this year.

Lnmont has gono to Now York to visit his family. Ho will return this week. Tho House, is now considering tho wool olanso of tho tariff bill, and un less there is somo unexpected delay in disposing of it, tho bill will bo passed this week. Senator Pagh to-day mado a strong speech in favor of tho ratification of tho fisheries treaty. Friday Sonator Georgo did likewise. A delegation of the Patrons of In dustry 01 Pennsylvania called on Mr. Cleveland Friday, to invito him to at tend their exhibition and pionio on August 24. Tho President said that lvs duties are now such as to require his strictest attention, but when Con gress adjourns, ho would have more time. Tho next trait to bo investigated by the House committee on manufactures will be whiskey. "Granny" Blair, who is ono of tho most blatant domagogues who over oc cupied a seat in tho United States Son ate, received a blossiug down on Thursday last at the hands of Senator Butler of South Carolina, which ho is not likely to forget for some tirao to come. The subject under discussion was the presidential vetoes of privato pension bills. Blair said that taken as a whole, the vetoed cases were cases of absolute merits, and tho vetoes wore outrages of the rights of American citizens. Mr. Butler in reply said that the greatest blessing that could overtake the Senato and tho country would bo for the Senator from New Hampshire to bo less faithful to the line of duty which lie bad marked out for himself. If there has been any incumbrance, any incubus on tho sen sible, respeotable, orderly discharge of the duties of the Senate, it had been in the person of tho Senator from Now tt i : 1 .1 ... v. : 1. nampsiure, auu iu tuu iuua&uica wuiuti he had introduced. Mr. Butler also truthfully stated that Blair was, like a demagogue, trying to appeal to tho soldier vote of tho oountry. Referring to a remark of Mr. Blair, that the lan guage of some of the messages was nngentlemanly, Mr. Butler said: "God save the mark! What a terrible cala mity it would be to this country if tho standard of gentlemen had to bo esta blished by tho Senator from New Hampshire. It would undermine and destroy every mlo on tho subject, re cognized among civilized people." Mr. O'Neil of Missouri, who is chairman of me House committee on Labor, says that the most important bill in tho House is that prohibiting tho carrying of conviot mado goods from ono State to another. It is ex pected that an evening session of the House will be held lor the passage of this and other labor bills. The House has passed a hill, provid ing for the taking of tho eleventh and subsequent censuses. The campaign committee selected by Chairman Barnum of the national committco is regarded hero as a very strong ono. Tho President has accepted with deep regret the resignation of Hon. G. N. LUbrop, U. o. minister to Uus- sia. Ill health is the cause. Representative S. J. Randall is angcrously ill in this city. He has had several attacks of hcramorhage.

Mr. Charles Emory Smith, who on Sunday night last was appointed ono of the Blaine "steering" committeo to di rect the "radicals" on tho floor of tho Convention, thus talked to a correspon dent of tho Pittsburg Times after the ticket had been nominated, adding that Harrison was his personal choice after Blaine, and that ho haJ been ad vocating tho Indianian a nomination for two months back.

In answer o tho question "What do you think f tho Republican norainationf Judge Thurman said last night: "I consider it a very strong ticket. I havo no per sonal acquaintance with General Har rison, and thought Senator Sherman's nomination would be the strongest one; bnt, under the circumstances, the ticket as named is as strong as coold have been nominated by the Convention. However, I do not believe that it is stronger than its party, and therefore do not see how it can be elected. ew York, Indiana and New Jersoy are naturally Democratic, and tho ticket named at Chicago cannot carry nny oi these states, l nave no lears I tho result in .November.

A Ol.KAU EXPOSITION OP HOW THE TAHIKK DKAU WITH TIIK.M. Farmer Simple lived on a mountain which afforded excellent pasturago for cattle, and in tho small valloys ho out an nbundanco of grais to food them during tbo wintor. Tho soil was hard to till, and ho could Lot raiso grain without groat labor. farmer Urub lived on rich bottom land, peculiarly adapted to tho pro duction of corn. Ho could raiso on an aero twico as muoh as his neighbor Simple, and with less labor. Iho neighbors livod for years in groat comfort and harmony, Simple exchanging his cattlo for Grub's corn, and both wero gottiug rich. Ono day Farmer Simplo said to his boys, (and ho had four of thorn) "I havo been thinking it would be hotter for us to grow our own corn and save the cattlo wo now givo for it. Wo shall then hav plenty of work and bo more independent" "father, said John. "I think we hould havo harder work and cet less for it." "How so," said Simplo. "A good cow is worth 24, and corn worth 80 cents a bushel. For one cow wo can get 81) bushels of corn, and wo can raise two cows with tho labor it will take to raiso 30 bushels of corn on our hard land. For thoso ttoo cows neighbor Grub will givo m CO bushols. "Never mind," said tho old gentle man, "I don't liko to bo dependent on my neighbors; I am in favor of 'homo industry.' " "so am I, father, said John, "but want to mako home industry as profitable as possible. If by sol' ins cattlo to neighbor Grub, wo oan get twico as ranch corn raised upon his land as we can raise with the same labor on our own, I think wo had hot ter stick to raising cattlo." "l dont know how it is," said imple, "but I am in favor of Aim ndustry,' and 1 intond to petition the Legislature to lay a tax of 40 cents a bushel on all tho corn neighbor Grub sells us, that wo may be induced to raise it at homo." "Why don't vou givo Mr. Grub 40 cents a bushel more than ho asks for his corn, which would bo better." "How, you blockhead, give a man more than he asks for a thl'igt'' "You might as well ao it voluntarily to get the Legislature to compel vnu to do it : befidos. if it wer dono olnntai ilv all tbo monoy would stay among the farmers, whereas if it come the shape of a tax it will no eaten p by tho officers of government" "Mow yon talk, John,' said tho old man; "bnt I am in favor of homo in dustry, anyhow." So ho petitioned to tho legislature to impose a tax of 40 cents on every bushel of corn sold to him by his neighbor, making it cost him $1.20 In stead of 80 coots. But that wns not sufficient. He still found it cheaper to buy corn of his neighbor at that high price than to raiso it taavR John to his father ono day. !don't you soo that we havo to soli three cows now to get as much corn as we used to gel for two! ' flow sot Baid simple, "1 see no such thing." "When corn was 80 cents a bushel two cows nt $24 eaoh would buy CO bushels. JNow, when corn is i$l.2U a bushel, it takes thrco cows at 824 to pay for CO bushels." That is because the tax is not high enough," said Simple, "I'll have it raised to 80 cents a bushel, and then vie can afford to raise it ourselves. sure enough, ho got the legislature to raiso the tax to 80 cents, and then he could not afford to buy it of his neighbor at all. His best pasture lands were plowed up to raiso corn up on, tho number of his oattlo was great ly reduced, and what ho had to sell were no longer bought at tho samo gO'id price; for neighbor Grub, not bo- mg ablo to exchange las corn for cat tle, or bnd purchasers tor it at that high price, was compelled to lav down his fields in grass and raiso his own meat, farmer simple and bis boys had plenty of "homo industry" and well protected, too, but instead of getting rloher every year, as formerly under the system of freo trade with is neighbors, ho could scarcely keep his house in repair or get comfortable clothing for his wife and children.

Should Wool be Taxed. Tho question of imposing higher tariff Inxes upon wool or of ronoaling all duties on that raw material, is now before tho I Ion so. One Party, with fow exceptions, do mands.by amendment offored to tho ponding tariff bill, that tho duties of 1807 shall bo restored, which would imposo a tax of about 105 per cent, on tho ohcapor grades of woolen goods. mo omor party, with low excep tions, lavors tno repeal ot all tax upon wool and its free ndmUslon In tho interest of our woolen manufacturers and labor. Which is. right! Whioh is wrongT Wo now tax our homo consumers of woolen products 58 por cent ostensi bly to protcot our woolen Industries and givo them our homo market If wo thereby obtamod our home market it might bo wiso to tax tho working man 58 oonts of every dollar of the wages ho expends for woolen goods, but docs this excessivo taxation givo us our homo market? On tho contrary, our highly nrotoct- ed woolon manufactures and our over taxed woolen consumers, givo our homo woolon manufacturers and labor only 52 per cent, of our homo market whilo Europo comes in and supplies 48 per cont of it Why is this sot Tho reason is plain as tho unclouded sun at noonday. Tho European manu facturer gets his wool and other raw materials free; tho Amorioan manufao turer is bo exorbitantly taxed for his raw materials that oven with a 58 nor cont tnx imposed upon oonstimors of woolen goods, to protect our capital and labor, Europo can pay tho high tax and compete with us in our homo markets. With freo wool and reduced taxes on the necessaries of life, our woolen manufacturers could reduce the cost of woolens to consumers not less than 20 per cent; thoy could double our produot of woolons and supply our wholo homo market; they could double tho employment of labor in tho wool on industry, and both cnpital and labor oould got better compensation with reduced taxes upon consumers. And what would tho noonlo u-ain bv itt " ' ' Wo consume annually S10 ner head of woolon goods that is SG00.000.- 000. Wo now furnish from homo mills and laboi- about S300.000.000 and pay European mills and labor for nearly S300.000.000. A reduction of 20 per cent in woolens would relievo tho consumers of woolens annually of tho enormous sum of S120.O00.O0O. and of that sum 15,000,000 would bo aved by the consumers of woolens in Pennsylvania Mone, while tho entire crop of tho State does not exceed $230- 000. Everybody consumes woolen rroods. and especially our workiuomon. Many of thorn wear only wiolens tho wholo wear, and thoy aro now taxed 58 per cent. and muoh moro on somo of tho cheaper articles to protect our wooien mills and Inbor. whon the m-o- posed protection defeats itself by taxes upon tho raw materials wo must havt. Was over such folly committed by an honest government! "liut wo must protect tho labor of the sheen industry," answers tho mon opolist champion. Pray, what labor th.ere in wool-growingT The labor involved in the care of a flock of 500 sheep is about ono boy and a dog, and there tho protection of labor ends. Was ever such a mockery of tbo pro tection of labor offered to an intelli gent people? should wool bo taxed? Let the Houso answer tho question by its voto on tho tariff. Tbo people will answ er it in thunder tones in favor of freo wool; reduced prices to consumers: en larged labor for our workingraen; tbo entire suoply of our home market and increased prosporty for both labor and capital. 1'hila.

The cham pion heart-breaker and bigamist of tbo United States has been traced to this city, ner name is Marthina Hart She is aged 31 yoars and it is said has no lewer than cloven living husbands. tier home is somo whero in tho West. and for many years past shohas travel ed from state to state selling books. While not good-looking, strictly speak ing, Miss Hart has a fascinating man ner, whioh makes her quite a success ful saleswoman. But her greatest suc cess is in capturing the hearts of tho opposite sex. As she oamo in contact with men every day her circle of ac quaintances was very large. She had no use for old men, however, for the young men with plenty of money found most favor in bcr eyes. Alter she had found tho man of her choice sho wanted to know if ho meant business, and if ho did an oarly mar riage was proposed. If ho did not mean business be had to make way for some other visitor who bad more push. Directly after marriage Miss Hart would ask her husband for a couple, of hundred dollars, saying her mother was sick and needed tho money at once. Ot course, tho nowly-mado hus band oould not refuse tho request, and the cash was forthcoming every time. This wonld be tho last seen of tho cash or tho brulo. In this way she deluded and victim! zed many men. A man named John I'.vans, arrived in tho town yesterday looking for the woman. Ho said he mot her about six wees ago, and was so smitten with her charms that ho proposed nnd sho accepted him. Thoy had not been married two days before she asked him for tho loan of eomo monoy to send to her sick mother, no gavo her 350 and this was tbo last seen ot her. sho also forged Ins name for n considerable amount To-day another nusuand named is. ai. r hineo. from tbo western part of tbo State ar rived. He too gave tho woman 200 to send home, but never saw anything ot ner niter no gave ner tbo oash, Phinco has sinco learned that there aro several other mon who married tho woman now looking for her nnd their money. Miss Hart was here tho early part of tho week, but her where abouts are now unknown, , On Monday a motion was mado by Congtessman Wilklns of Ohio too Btriko wool off of the froo list. Th, motion was dofeatod by yeas 102 naya 120. Mr. Sowdon of Pennsyl van a, and Messrs. Foran nnd Wilklns of Ohio, democrats, voted with tho ro publicans.
