The legislature met last week, Tncs
day, and alter a session of two days
adjourned until Wednesday last. Tho
sic days thus wasted arc counted iu
the 100 days for which tho members
of tho legislature receive $1000, so
that tho pay goes on notwithstanding
tho adjournment.
Thero arc many things in this world
tliat nro boyond human comprehension
13 ut if thoro is ono thing more uncer
tain than another, it is the notion of a
politician who has got a taste of pu' lio
offioo and wants to stay there. Tho
world must not bo surprised nt any
moment to see him bowing in humility
beforo those who in his innermost con
science ho heartily despises, even as a
car fondles and whines at the feet of
ite master, no matter how hard tho
kicks it has received therefrom.
Tho Supremo Court of tho stato be
gan its sessions in Philadelphia last
Monday. Tho court now consists of
Chief Justice Paxson, and Justices
Storrett, Green, Clark, Williams, and
tho i-eeently elected members, Mitchell
and McCollum. For the first time the
Judges wear OxfordB gowns. Tho
only other courts whero gowns nro
worn aro the: Supreme Court of tho
United States, and tho Court of Ap
peals of New York. There will bo no
election for Judge of the Supremo
Court until 1895, unless there is a death
or resignation beforo that time.
WABHINGT0H LETTER.
From our Regular Correspondent.
Washington, Jan. 7, 1889.
Senator Reagan, when asked about
tbo rumors of opposition to the re
election of Senator Coke, laughed good
naturedly and said: "It's all bosh,
Coke will bo unauimonsly re-elected.
Texnus always know when thoy havo
a good thing."
Senator Ciillom raised quite a laugh
at tho expense of Senator, or, as he is
oftener called here "Granny" Blair,
Saturday, when ho presented to the
Senato resolutions adopted by the
Columbia Turnverein of Lake, Illinois.
Tho resolutions after reciting their
opposition to Mr. Blair's bill for com
pulsory religious instructions in publio
schools, etc. , recommends ''that
Congress make an appropriation suf
ficient to pay tutors to instruct such
Representatives or Senators like Mr.
Blair in the rudiments of history and
other studies calculated to develop and
broaden their minds, so that tbey may
no longer disgraoe our nation in tho
ojes of the world by resolutions and
bills to which thero is no present
parallel, but which reminds one foroibly
of Spain iu ihe fifteenth century."
This is rather rough on Blair and liis
kind, bnt as lonj as they act on the
obsolnto idea that people can be made
good and virtuous by the enactment of
laws, they can expect no belter.
Senator Brown, of Georgia was in
bis eat Saturday for thn first time this
session. His health has improved
slightly.
The republican comet, Blaine, lia-i
arrived beie. His arrival has created
a great commotion in the polittol
firmament; his satellites, such as Sena
tor Hiscook, Plumb, Chandler, and
Representatives Phelps, Boutelle and
others are sailing around with an air
of great importance, while his rival?,
such us Senators Sherman and Edmun Js,
aro revolving around with great dignity
and taking especial care to keep out of
the way ol the fiery tail of the comet;
tbey realize that there is great danger
to them, should a collision take place.
The appearance of a comet in tho sky
has from time immemorial been consider
ed the certain forerunner of wars and
disturbances, and the longer tho tail
the greater tbe disturbance or war.
The Blaine comol has a very long tail,
and the war presaged is likely to be
correspondingly long and bitter, ending
only with the destruction of the com
batants. But as tho oombatants are all
in tho republican party, there need be
no great grief over their annihilation.
It is understood that Sena' or Hiecock
was tho bearer of Blaine's ultimatum
to Harrison; it not only demanded that
Blaine shouid sit at the head of the
cabinet table, as Secretary of Sta'o bnt
he should haw tbo naming of at leal
two other membuis of the cabinet.
Ilarrifion has not yet given his answer,
and tho sudden appearance of tbo Blaine
comet at the capital, and the marshal
ing of tho various planets into a bt ill
iant constellation, is all for tbe purpose
of impressing tho Harrison sun with
the immense power for good or for ovil
wliioh is wielded by tho comet.
Whether tbe comet shall destroy tho
sun or tho sun the comet, is a matter
of indifference to the democratic ob
servers gathered in tho national
observatory for tbo purposo of enjoy
ing free pyrotechnics. Firo tho big
gmis.Jand let thoj show begin. The
nation is assomblod to witness the fnn.
The Senate plods along in its con
sideration of the tariff bill. The re
publicans havo struok a dangerous snag
n the sugar question. When tho
paragraph reducing tho duties 50 per
cent on imported sugar wn framed it
wni known by tho republicans that it
would bankrupt tho sugar planters of
Louisiana, but for that tbey oared
nothing, as thoy expeoted no votes
from tli at state; but now they havo
discovered that it will do equally as
much damage in republican Kansas
and Calilornia, both of which states
have protesting delegations hero now;
tbat of tho latter peing headed by
Claus Spreckler, known nil over the
world as tuo sugar king. The result
is, tbe senate finance oommittee have
conoluded to offer an amendment to
the bill, giving a bounty for every
pound of sugar produced in this
country.
Filibustering seems to bo natural in
tbo present House, which has practical
lv been a deadlock sinco lost Thursday.
The committee on rales reported a reso
lution for tho purposo of stopping the
introduotlou of bills on tho 'wo Mon
days in llit month known as suapcuxion
days. About thirty members oppostd
this monition, and owing to the small
ntiendaucu they havo been ablu to pre
Vt nt its adoption by refuting to vole,
thus breaking a quorum. Telegram
havo been rent to nbsont member, and
it is expected that enough will bo
present by to-morrow to pass tho reso
lution in epito ol tbo fillbustcrcri.
The Aot of 1887, Dividing Cities, Deotared
Unoomt tntios&l-
In affirming tho judgment of tho
Common Pleas Court of Luzemo
county, from which an appeal was tak
en by 1). P. Ayars. tho Supreme Court
monuay delivered on important de
cision holding that while tbe Municipal
Corporation aot of 1871, dividing tho
cities of tho stato for tho purposes of
legislation into three classes was con
slilutioual, tbo subsequent acts of
1870 increasing tho numbers of classes
to five, nnd that of May 24, 1 887,
increasing it to soven, wcro unoonsM
tutioual and void. Tho County Court
simply decided that the act of 1887
was not yet operative Tho pcrniciom
system ol special legislation practiced
for many' years before 1871, had be
come general and deep-rooted and tho
evils resulting therefrom so alarming
that tho people determined to apply
tho only remedy that promised hope of
any release, and tho result of tbat de
termination was the adoption of the
Constitution. Ono of the manifest
objects of that instrument was to eradi
cate that species of legislation and sub
stituto in hen of it general laws, when
over it was possible to do so."
After quoting several provisions of
the acts to show the lack of necessity
for any further classification Judgo
Stonelt answers tho argument that the
question of necessity for classification
is a legislativo and hot a judicial one
in this way : "The answer to that is
obvious. The peoplo have seen Gt not
oaly to prescribe tbo form of enacting
laws bnt pIso, as to curtain subjects,
tho method of legislation, by ordaining
that no local or special law relating to
those subjects shall be passed.
Whetlmr in any given casH
the Legislature has transcended its
power and passed a law in con
flict with that limitation is essentially
a question of law and must neces
sarily be decided by the courts. To
warrant the conclusion that tho people
intended so invest their lawmakers with
judicial power and thus make them
the official arbiters of their own nots
would require tho clearest and inou
emphatia languago to that effect. No
such iutentien is expressed in tho Con
stitution and none can be inferred
from any of its provisions. That these
limitations were design' d to establish
a fixed aud permanent ruto can not be
duiibted. But if the ultimate applica
tion of that rule were to rest polely on
the judgment of the body on which it
was intended to operate nothing could
bo more flexible.
"No such proposition can be enter
tained by the courts without abandon
ing one of the most important branch
es of jurisdiction given to them by
tho fundamental law, namely, the pow
er to ultimately determino whether or
not a given law is local or speoial and
has been passed in disregard of the
constitutional limitation that has been
placed upon tbe power of the Legisla
ture. It follows that tho decree of the
court below is correct, not only on
tbo ground that as to tbo city of VVil
kes.Barre the act of 1887 is not yet
operative, but also on the broadir
ground that the act is unconstitutional
and void."

A. "C01.LEOE" WHICH UKADUATE8 WITH
BLASPHEMOUS CEREMONIES-
Cincinnatti, Jan 5. An iniquitous
scheme has been operating with im-
puuitv for fifteen years in this city.
The Amercan Health College, run by
Dr. J. 11. Uampbell, at. Fairmont, pre
tends to great powers, which aro an
insult to the medical profession, a
sacrilege on holy things and a blot
upon advanced civilization, tbe bold
nes with whiob tbo establishment is
conducted almost staggers belief. It
leaches what is known as vitapathy.
Thero is no regular course of instruc
tion, no scientific lectures, no classes in
dissection, no study of anatomy or
pharmacy A sort of superstition
which po-sesses neither logic or merit
is vitipathy. Smdents aro graduated
and given diplomas in two months.
If their lime is limited or they are iu
n hurry thoy will be made M. D. 's in
five weeks.
Dr. J. B. Campbell is not only tbo
author of tbe mighty system but
bo is principal of tbe college and sells
a number of books which attempt to
.explain the infallible qualities of vita
pathy. tie believes that bis is the
only vitapathy school in the world, and
he has tbe name of ti e college copy
righted. It is ouly lately that this diegraceful
doctor taotory has been called directly
to public notice, b or some years the
reputable physicians of all schools have
denounced the vitapathio College iu
tho Btrougest terms. Their criticisms
wore not htcded becauto no one but
themselves, it was Buppo.ed, had any
interest in breaking it up. Ministers
of the gospel would not believe that
pitch a den of blasphemy existed, and
could not to persuaded that such im-
pnms practices would bo ptrmuted in
a city like Cincinnatti,
At tho commencement exercises on
November 25, the most blasphemous
practices were indulged in. Parodies
on "Hock of Ages' and other woll
known Christian hymns were sung,
then tbo graduates, twelve in number,
six of whom were women, were given
what Campbell, who olaims to be the
high priest, calls tho vitapathio sacra
ment, in which was now vitalized and
spiritualized milk. This was UBcd in
stead of tho bread nnd wino of tho
Christian Church. Campell went
through tho form of vitalizing and
blessing the milk, whiob, he said was
cmblamatio of tbo highest food of tho
eternal life. Each candidate roceived
a portion of the milk poured into small
glasses, then loilowed a still more
prcfune mockery spiritual baptism
ana vitnpainio ministerial ordination
This tbe high priest conferred opon
tho advanced graduates who bad bo
coruo fully converted to tbe sublimo
and holier doctrines and were willing
to accept the whole armor of vitapathy
for the benefit of humanity. He placed
jus hand upon eacn candidates Head
and uttered tho following:
"Brother, you havo learned the vita
pathio syBtero, giaduated at its college,
partaken of its highest sacrament and
holler spiritual baptism, and are ready
to take on the highor oiliou of
vitapathio minister. We, therefore, by
authority of our country's laws and
heaven's highest power ordain you a
viiapnituo minuter ami puysioian, with
full authority and power to preach tho
gofpol of life as contained in the great
vitapathy pyetem in all its fullness and
power to alt peoplo in all worlds, all
