The election this year is the most impor tant of any election. The people, by their ballots will select an Auditor General who will act upon the ac counts of the State, and a State Treasurer, who pays out tne funds and makes such investments as will guaran tee absolute security. The recent ex posure ot the fraud perpetrated upon the peopleby Dardsley of Philadelphia, who was allowed to hold funds which the Auditor General should hive collected, should arouse every voter. auJ not one remain away from the polls. Let the people consider well who they vote for, and what may be the result if the man for whom they cast their ballots should be elected. The democrats have nominated R. E. Wright of Lehigh county, for Auditor Gene ral, who is known for his honesty and fearlessness in doing the right. For State Treasurer they have nominated A. L. Tilden of Erie. The issue is drawn whether the people desire a continuation of the loose practices of the past, by which the state has lost millions of dollars, and taxation in creased, or whether men shall be elected who will enforce the laws of the State. If all honest thinking peo pie will go to the polls on the 3rd of November and cast their ballots, the result will be an overthrow of the pres ent spoils system and an enforcement of the State laws. Go to the polls and vote and insist on your neigh bors going with you. Do not let one stay at home. WASHINGTON LETTEJL Washington, D. C. Oct., 7, 1891. The recent developements in the State of Pennsylvania, the most im portant of which is the action of Gov ernor Pattison in calling a special ses sion of the Senate to investigate the scandals surrounding the fiscal and revenue departments of the Keystone State, and conduct of Thomas McCam ant the Auditor-General, and Henry K. Boyer the Treasurer, have caused a great deal of talk and comment among the people in Washington. The Re publican officials here, wVo are high in party councils, are being criticized in unmeasurable terms for assisting to keep Quay at the head ot the' party in Pennsylvania and thus maintaining Quay methods in the-administration of affairs in the State. To sav that the Republicans who have the. best inter ests of the party at heart are thoroughly disgusted with the management of af fairs in Pennsylvania by the corrupt gang in charge there now, is putting it very mildly. Thev mf than Ai Rusted and they are mad, and hope that the rascally gang may be thoroughly exposed and punished for their misdo--&ags,forthe sake of saving the Repub Cican party from (roing to pieces on the rocks for which Quay nd his hench man are steering the party now. All self-respecting and honest Re piiMican in Washington feel that it ii not possible for the Republican party, -under the leadership of Quay and the influences surrounding him. to avoid defeat in Pennsylvania this year. In fact, they are of the opinion, that the defeat of the Republican partr in Pennsylvania this year would be a'God send. Defeat this year, they argue, WJuld tend to purify politics in the State, and give the honest Republicans and independent voters an opportunity to win in the future. They say that the election of the Republican candi dates for State Treasurer and Auditor-; General this year will only perpetrate and strengthen Quay's power and en danger the party in the tuture. In the language of the New York Iiecorder, one of the strongest administration pa pers in the country,"Republicans every where are becoming ashamed of Penn sylvania because of the1 corruption ex. isting in the party management." ' When "Honest John" Bardsley, City Treasurer of Philadelphia, was arrest, ed and convicted of embezzling sever al hundred thousand dollars of money intrusted to his care by the State, . everybody was astounded. But when they learned that two of the highest State officials were a dcer in the mir as Bardsley was in the mud, they threw up tneir nanas in norror, ana wanted to see the honor of the State restored. Ther want to see the corrunt. crina- . punished and every honest Republican . In Washington, if he , had a . vote in Pennsylvania, would cast his ha Tint against the machine ticket this fall. It -is tru the frenrlemen whn are) nn seeking the offices of Auditor-General ard State Trr.-iaurer. are not rharorerl with corruption. But aie they notthje creatures of the same gang that select ed the present officials to office? If elected they dare not expose the rot tenness now existing in the offices to which they aspire. The two candi dates, Messrs. Gregg and Morrison, have pledged themselves . to Quay to obey ordei s, and if elected (every hon est Republican at the National Cap ital hope they will not) they will be the tools of the same gang who now control theii predecessors, Messrs. Mc Camant and Boyer. Voters of Pennsylvania, . the whole country is waiting breathlessly for a just verdict, will you give it? It is earnestly hoped you will by defeating the Republican ticket and thus over throwing Quayism and his corrupt fol lowers. - B. R. W. Delays ue Dangerous.. , There are those who are morbidly . anxious about their health, watching every symptom and dosing themselves 1 on the - slightest provocation. There are others who never give tne matter, a thought, but permit real symptoms . to lapse into the certainties of disease. , Between these two extremes the wise , man steers never unduly anxious, ; and yet not permitting genuine symp-1 toms to develop. He knows that de-, lays are dangerous, and he kno ws, ' moreover, that the medicine most likely to be effective is that which goes ' straight to the seats of disease, and j tones up the digestive organs, strength-' ens the system and purifies the blood. . He takes a few doses of S. S. S., and -soon finds that all the symptoms have disappeared, and that he is ir)a better r condition tnau ever, ine great veg etable remedy has no rival. The Dilemma of the Bosses. Day by day the situation with re spect to the defrauded Treasury of the State of Pennsylvania, and the derelict conduct of the accounting officers of the State, grows more interesting. The publication in the public prints, of the correspondence of the Auditor General and the State Treasurer with the con vict Treasurer of Philadelphia, was speedily followed by the proclamation o" Governor Pattison calling a special session of the Senate to take action in the premises. Among all classes alike, without regard to party affiliations men who think, were convinced by a perusal of this correspondence that tne accused officials were guilty of grossly improper conduct, although there might be a question as to whether the proof was sufficient to convict them of their mis doings in the courts of justice. In striking contrast with the diplo matic conduct of District Attorney Graham and the Republican managers in Philadelphia who had original con trol of the case, is the conduct of the fearless Democratic Governor in apply ing the heroic remedy to this malady which haa brought the body politic nigh unto death. The situation is ex tremely alarming to the Republican leaders of Pennsylvania." They con trol the Senate by a large majority. They may be able to delay investiga tion in the case and postpone and pos sibly avoid entirely, final action upon it, but the great tribunal of public opin ion will pass judgment upon the party which they represent, and it will be no longer an individual or two who will be held responsible for the wrong, but. the party itself will stand convicted of at tempting to cover up the crimes of its representatives and to save itself at the expense of the public weaL ; j It is to be expected in this trying di lemma, the Republican managers will raise tne cry that this is simply a piece of political clap trap on the part of Governor Pattison . and his advisers, and that the special session is part of the political campaign now being waged by the Democratic party, but the fact still remains that Governor Pattison is too well known to the people of Penn sylvania for them to believe that unless he was convinced by a conscientious sense of hit duty, and impelled to ac tion by higher motives than those which inspire the partisan, he would have ever called into play the machinery of the office which he holds. Recogniz ing that the best interests of the people lay in this direction, he has not hesita ted to act. Knowing the significant character of the evidence which has already been presented and is likely to be brought out, the defenders of the accounting officers of the common wealth are already beginning to put in the plea ot confession and avoidance. 1 ney can not help but admit that there has been gross negligence on the part of these officials, but they are charging that it has been the custom of the ac counting officers, in the past, in this articular. But the law which has been aid down for the guidance of the Au ditor general and State Treasurer is a plain one. It was the duty of the offi cers to see to it that no county official charged with the collection of the State funds, failed to report the amount col lected by him quarterly, and to make payment to the Treasury of the State of all moneys in his hands on this ac count, quarterly or oftener if the ac counting officer saw fit to demand it. The mends of the State Treasurer are naturally very much incensed that he also has been included in the proc lamation of the Governor, but no other consistent course lay open. The same law which applies to the Auditor Gen eral applies to the State Treasurer. If the one was derelict in duty, the other Children Oryfci has been so also. Herein lies a little history which dates back to that period in the financial aiTaiis of Pennsylvania when the once powerful Mackay and Quay ring were first obtaining a foot hold in political alTairs. It was found convenient when the Auditor General of tne State was not willing to be a party to all their schemes to devise leg islation which gave to the State Treas urer equal powers with him, and so it was that as time went on, the State Treasurer came to have full power to compel settlements lrom county and other officials with that possessed by the Auditor General. These 'chickens have come home to roost." It is un fortunate now that the State Treasurer has been clothed with equal power with the Auditor General, for it would be a most convenient way of escape for him to simply claim that he was but the custodian of the funds, and that the Auditor General was the col lector. Taken all in all, the Republicans are in a dreadful dilemma. Which horn they will seize, they are at a loss to de termine. If they cast obstructions in the way of investigation, they will be crushed by the condemnation of the public If they conclude to make a sacrifice of the Auditor General, they lose their political power. It remains to be seen what course in their wisdom they will pursue. , bb m The eyesight is the most valuable of our senses.

How to Makj Money- A man who is wise, careful, and conservative, energetic, persevering and tireless, need have no fear of his future, writes Henry" Clews, the New York banker, in the October Ladies' Home Journal. But there is one other thing. He must have a steady head, one that can weather the rough sea of reverses lrom which no life is altogether free, and one that will not become too big when successes attend his efforts. Keep out of the way of speculators. Takeyour money, whether it be much or little, to one whose reputation will insure you good counsel. Invest your money where the principal is safe and you will get along But don't forget the acorns. It is from little acorns that great oaks grow. See that you begin aright early in life." ' Save your money with regularity. By so doing, you will more than save your money; you will make money. .V Xal SCROFULA It U that impurity In the blood, which, ae umulaUng In the gland of lbs Back, pro duces unsightly lumpa or aweUlngi; which cause painful running tores on tba arms, leg, or feot; which develop ulcer In the ye, ears, or nose, often causing blindness or deafness; which la the origin of pimples, can cerous growths, or the many other manifesta tion usually ascribed to " humors; " which, fastening upon the lungs, causes consumption and death.
