It would seem that the Demo crats, who are holding Hon Jos. C. Sibley up to ridicule and scorn for as they allege, scattering the "long green"in a corrupt way, in the interest of his election to Con gress, are condemning themselves as severely as they are Mr. Sibley. Less than two years ago these Warren Democrats spurned the idea of Mr. Sibley using money for his election. We do not know whether Mr. Sibley used money in a wrong and corrupt way or not. But these Democrats now say he did. And ii' he did many of these "Warren Democrats helped him do it. It ill-becomes the pot to call the kettle black, or those who live in glass houses to throw stones. At a meeting in Warren last fall Mr. Sibley resented the charge that he was using money improperly and the whole Democratic party in "\\ arren responded with a loud and a long drawn out "Amen." If you will take up the Evening Democrat, Friday's issue, yoit will rend, in the editorial column, about the whole game which is there ex posed. Mr. Sibley could not have scattered his money in.l corrupt way if he had not had agents to do it for him, taking for truth the -taleinents (if the Democrat that he did so. \\ ho were those; agents? Persons that did not belong to the Democratic party? Or were they imported for the purpose? The distribution of Mr. Sibley's money, who gave it out, for what purpose, under what circumstances and conditions, who got it, etc., would make an interesting story, if some one, who was in the mystic circle, would write it up and give r to the public. If Mr. Sibley soiled his political garments in the mud, there are others who were as deep in the mire. -Now if these Democrats who are so liberal with their information about Mr. Sibley would tell us something about the persons who lid this work for '-Honest .Joe," and expose the whole scheme, they would l>e doing a commendable public act and the state and dis trict a benefit. If Mr. Sibley had come forward .is the Democratic candidate he would be the same old "Honest foe." but as lie has not done so he "Honest Joe no longer.

The severe ruling of Judges Umbel and Hep pert, of Fayette county, in dis posing of the applications for licenses at the present term of court, will be likely to lead to more careful examina tion of license applications by the courts generally throughout the State. There must have been more than ordinary provocation by the abuses of the license system in Union town and Fayette county, to compel the Judges to make a deliverance so severely restraining the methods of hotel-keepers. Among the requirements fixed by the Fayette county Judges for hotel people are the avoidance of fast living, drink ing and gambling; the payment of their debts and the maintenance of a reputa ble position in the community. They are not permitted to take any offensive part in politics, at primary or general elections, nor lodiscuts politics in their bar-room:' or > .nit treating in the in -3 rest e>f pel it i ! candidates. All ad ditional retinircmt-at is that the hotels must i)e cleanly, with tidy porters and servants, and loafers excluded. In ihort, as the Ju , >•» declare, they insist hat tne liquor tr *e;e: must be made en .irelv reput.-.b!.- bv ihu avoidance of all I offensive and social order. Of course, such rules would not be generally needed for tho hotels in our great cities, but it is a well-known fact that in a number of the counties of Pennsylvania the men who can render the greatest service in obtaining licen ses for applicants have the greatest po litical power. In ono county close to this city, the local political movements have been largely if not wholly, con trolled through tho influence of the hotels and saloons. Their licenses were given to serve political ends, and in desperate political contests hotel keepers were required not only to con tribute, but to control all within their reach in the interest of the power that gave them the licenses. Such a condi tion must bo not only demoralizing to politics of the community, but gener ally demoralizing to the moral health ofthe people. The courts coulel greatly elevate the liquor trade in every community by enforcing just provisions for the pro tection of tho sobriety of the people, and avoiding all tho many temptations to disorder and drunkenness which come from a considerable portion of our rural hotels. They are of necessity political centres, but there is 110 reason why a political conference at a hotel should not bo as decorous as a political conference held at a school house or at a private residence. In many sections tho rule is for political conferences to be held at hotels and end in a jolly spree, all of which would be well to avoid; and with such restrictions as are put upon the Fayette county hotels by tiio Court, all necessary political meet ings and conferences, large and small, could be held without any demoaliza tion whatever. The high standard fixed for lecensed hotels by the Fayette county Judges is well worthy of imita tion throughout the Stated-Philadel phia Times. Council Proceedings.

"The next Legisla ture will be a working body. There will be no deadlock, Senatorial or oth erwise. A United States Senator will be elected, the choice of the Republican caucus, and but one joint ballot will be necessary to reach a decision. I believe an appropriation will be made to com plete the Capitol Building. It is a blot on the Commonwealth in its present shape." Judge Hazen, of Colorado, a brother of Mrs. Dewey's first husband, is evi dently not favorably impressed with Admiral Dewey's candidacy for presi dent. When asked on Saturday what he thought of Admiral's declaration that he was a candidate, his answer was:"l am not in a position to say much, but if the people of this country do not desire to place the destiny of the nation in the hands of a woman, it will be best to let the Admiral remain where he is.
