FRIDAY, MARCH 15, 1889.
Tho now administration was placed
in a peculiar situation at tho timo of
inauguration. Tho Shah of Persia
sent nis congratulations to President
Harrison. No ono of tlio Cabinet of
ficers oonld interpret the milage or
eoknowledgo it) and Cloycland's Secre
tary of State, Mr. Bayard, who under
stands tho Persian language, was
callod upon to holp them out. When
Mr. Blaino learns tho Persian language
ho oan ascertain what reply his prod
ocossor sent.
At the last regular meeting of tho
Democratic Slate Committee tho fol
lowing resolution was unanimously
adopted:
Rssolvkd That tho City and
County Committees, Coramttecnien
and all the regular agenoics of the
party bo enjoined and earnestly advised
to procure tho immediate organization
of Democratic Societies, covering all
the districts in their respeotivo Cities
and Counties, and that such sooieties
beoomo memoirs ot tho Deraocratiu
Sooiety of Pennsylvania, transmitting
lists of their officers and members to
the Secretary. Maj. John D. Worman,
Democratic Headquarters, Harrisburg,
Pa.
It is highly important that tho or
ganization of the Democratrc Societies
shonld prooeed and that tho people
should bo instructed as to their spirit
and purpose, and this committee is
especially anxious that no effort to that
end should be spared.
WASHINGTON LETTER.
from oar Regular Correspondent. 1
Washington, Mir. 11, 1889
Harrison will bo a d ad man in len
than thre months if the horde ol
greedy office Beckers do not ceae
persecuting him. Already his right
arm is lamed and Ms complexion ha
the suspicious chalkoy white appear
anoo of ill health. But tho crowd still
comes marching nn, fairly falling over
each other in their eagerness to reach
the ear of the President. S ich a gang
was never before seen in Washington.
It thought at the beginning of
Mr. Cleveland's administration thai
the pressure for office was great, but
compared with that now going on, i
was as a Hummer zephyr to an untamed
Dakota blizzird. Every man exutp'
those that have died, that over held
office under republican administration
is hero clamoring for vindication in th
shape of an appointment to his old
place or to a belter one, and in addition
thorn are thousand of men who are
after getting their first taste of official
life. These last think the govornm-nt
service needs a liberal infusion of new
blr.od, providoi, if course that they
furnish it. Between them they an'
making a torment for Mr. Harrrison
as great as any that ever existed on
this earth, and there is littlo chance of
a change until everything worth scram
bling for is given out. In the tnein
time Mr. Harrison's worst enemy could
not wish him worse punishment than
be is daily undergoing.
senator Hampton thinks that ox-
Governor Thompson will be uoniina
ted as the Democratic member of the
Civil Service Commissioner. He was
nominated by Mr. Cleveland, and
wonld have been confirmed had his
name been sent in before the Ropubli
cans passed a caucus resolution against
any moro political confirmations.
Et-Scnator Whituey had sold hi
Washington residence to Postmaster
General Wanamaker for $80,000. Mr.
Whitney will tako a two months trip
to Europe beforo settling down to work
in New York. The rest of Mr. Cleve
land's Cabinet except Mr. Endicott, are
still here. Mr. Dickinson went to
New York with Mr. Cleveland's party
last week, but has returned.
There's a big row in the Republican
csmp already. It is a question of
veracity between Harrison and Ex-
Governor Alger. Alger told the
Michigan delegation that Harrison bad
expressed great regret on account of
having to leave him (Algnr) out of the
cabinet, and that as a slight compens
tion the President ha told him that h
mlirht name a man for Solicitor Goner
al. He nam d H. M Duffiuld, who he
aked the delegation to endorse, at th
same timo assuring them that it
was ouly a formality;that tho appoint
ment would be considered personal,
and wonld not be charged to the stite.
The delegation endorsed the applica
tion and oarrted it immediately to Mr.
Harrison. The delegation was struok
dumb when the president told them h
knew nothing about tho matter, and
that they had better Ale, tho application
with the Attornoy General. What
transpired when the delegation got
baolc to Alger is not yet Known.
Representative Townsend, ol Illinois,
died sudde ily on Saturday. He
caught a sovere cold last week, and on
Tuesday it was developed into
pneumonia. Hh was one of the most
popular men in the House.
Mr. Harrison's Cabinet, with the ex
ception of Mr. Blaine and Mr. Windom,
is regarded as very weak. It is
Blaine all over. All the members are
intense Blaineites exoept two- Miller
and Wanamaker, and these two can
harly be said to count, Mr. Miller be
ing appointed solely because ho was
Harrison's law partner and personal
friend, and Mr. Wanamaker beuius
ho held Mr. Quay's order for the Post
master Generalship, for which ho had
paid $100,000 in cold cash.
A gentlemen says ho asked Mr.
Harrison if hy intended to call an extra
session of the Fiftieth Congress, and
that the President replied: "No indeed,
I want to get these fellow" .swjty, not
to give t'icul an uxunse for remaining."
Queer lot, these republicans. The
man who helped Mr. Quay in all hi
underground work J. S. Clark&ou
ia not good enough to receive an ap
pointment in the cabinet, and he was
turned down, notwithstanding the able
backing he received from such men as
Senators Allison and Quay.
The extra sessson of the Seuato has
as yet done nothing except confirm the
Cabinet oftloers. but e number of nom
inations are expected this week. It
lias beeu about settled that no other
business will be touched. This is
unmewhat disannointinK to tho bloody
ebirtere, who wanted to pass the Hoar
Southern election investigating num
tion. . .
It will be a long time before any
administration attains the social success
of the last one. Mrs. Cleveland as the
popular idol U not likely to have a
uocewor for many yearn to oome, if
A Big Meeting of Temperance Jfeople Hold
at Harrisburg.
IlAimienrjim, March 12. Tho Dau
phin County Prohibition Convention
met here to-dav and orgnnir.cn uy
making J. J. ftiasloy, of Hunimcls
town, chairman, and J. Wesley Awl,
of Harrisburg nnd J, U. Landl, of
Halifax, secretaries. Over two hun
dred delegates were present. A com
mittee on resolutions composed of
prominent ministers and others with
Hon. Francis Jordan a chairman, re
ported as follows: "Wo delegates
from Dauphin County, representing
tho friends of tho proposed constitu
tional amendment prohibiting the
manufacture and salo of intoxicating
liquor as a beveraco in convention as
pomblid Jletolve "That wo hereby in
dorso and approvo the aotlou of the
Stato Prohibitory Convention, and
hereby pledgo our hearty and zealous
co-operation to procurn tho adoption
of Baid amendment at the ballot b' x on
tho 18th of Juno next; that lh pond
ing issue transcends in magnitude and
importance every other question now
before our people, involving as it does
their highest interests hero and hero
after, and wo earnestly invito the aid
of all our citizens, without regard to
party or denominational preference, to
unite with us in ono granu rally for the
overthrow of the liquor traftiu and for
tho salvation of tho stato from all the
wrongs and manifold evils it is inflict
ing upon tho Commonwealth', that our
hearty thanks are duo to the Woman's
Christian Tcmperanoe Union and other
temperance organizations for their
zealous and continued labors in edu
cating our people to this great issue,
and we cordially iuvite their aid in thia
confliot, that wo cheerfully recognize
and appreciate the power of the public
press and, thankful for their generally
fair and liberal treatment of the great
issue, wo most earnestly invoko their
aid nnd co-opo'-Uion in the pending
canvass."
The resolutions were adopted amidst
applaneo. It was agreed that the fight
should bo conducted on political princi
ples and a county committee formed.
Over $600 was raised for campaign
expenes. It was the largest temper
neco meeting over held in this county.
During tho afternoon nd'1re"seg were
made, by A. II. Rinkin. of Pittsburg,
and Mrs. Annie Wittenmyer.
Communicated.
tt seems that the Legislature at
Harriflhu'g is a bodv of mere bunplar,
who d nt know how to draw a Pro
hibition Amendment. It is nlreadv
neoossarv to excuse, anoloeizo for, nnd
explain it. We nr assured that "The
amendment if adopted, will not un
necessarily interfero with the individu
al liberty of the citizen in resppct of
miking, Vmving, imnort'mr, keeping
and using as'a beverage alcoholic, or any
other sort of liquor. It strikes directly
only at the sale: in other words at th
liquor stores and dram-shops. Tho
nbj ct is to do awav with the dram
shop ns an nnbeemming business;''
So it seems tho rieh men can buv
'heir cases of wi"es and brandies, their
hsrrels and half-barrels of wMakins
and drink and guzzle to their henrt's
content; but a poor roin wh wants a
gUss of bonr or of whiskey, and wh
cannot snpplv h!m"1f by tho qnant'tv,
is to bo prevented from having a single
glass. The rights of the author of th
artiole quoted will not be interfered
with in the least, but ho ia determined
to interfere with the rights of every
poor man in the comrainity, or any
other man who wants only one glass of
beer at a time.
An Eager, Hungry Horde-
Thero are tenfold as many offieo
seekers in Washington aswore thereat
this time fouryears ago. 1 be Democracy
after twenty-threo years of exclusion
from Federal power was not ono tithe
aa eager for patronage as the Repub
licans now are to reoover the minority
of positions they havo been doprived of
during thn term of President Cleveland.
iVew York Star.
Oommunioated
At a Methodoat conference at Salem
N. J. March 11 among other things
"the use of tobacco by meraburs of
the oonferenco was condemned, and tho
Presiding elders were ordered to ascer
tain who had broken their vows in
this connection."
Thus fanaticism and folly go hand
in hand, and the libortv to eat or drink
or smoke or dress will presently be
controlled by tho cranks whos weak
aiomachs and weiker heads succumb
t a glass of beer or a miul eigir.
They will next rcgulato the cut of his
beard as well ns his coat, and regulate
tho leng'h of his nose, by that of
h's shoe. No man has the right to in
terfere with my rights we and our
rights stand upon an equal fooling.

Tlio agonies ot those who sutler from severe
salt rheum are Indescribable. Tho clc.milng,
healing, purl! ring Influences of Hood's Barsa
parllla are unequalled by any other medicine.
" I take pleasure In recommending Hood's
Barsaparllla, for It has done wonders for me.
I had salt rheum very severely, affecting me
over nearly my entire body. Only those who
have suffered from this disease In Its worst
form can Imagine tlio extent vf my affliction.
I tiled many medicines, but tailed to receive
benefit until I took Hood's Sariaparllla,
Then tho disease began to subside, the
Agonizing Itch and Pain
disappeared, and now I am entirely free from
tho disease. My blood seems to bo thor
oughly purified, and my general health Is
greatly benefited." I.vman Amur, Sexton
N. E. Church, North Chicago, III.
"My son had salt rheum on his hands and
the calTts ot his legs, so bad that they would
crack open and bleed. Ho took Hood's Bar
saparllla and ts entirely cured." J, II. Stan,
ton. Mt. Vernon, Ohio.
From 108 to 135
I was seriously troubled with salt rheum
tor three years, and receiving no benefit from
medical treatment I decided to try Hood's
Barsaparllla. I am now entirely cured ot salt
rheum; my weight has Increased from 10S lbs.
to MS." Mrs. Alice Surru, Stamford, Conn.
If you sutler from salt rheum, or any blood
disease, try Hood's Barsaparllla. It has cured
many others, and will euro you.
