I a a it EBNSBURC, PA., FRIDAY. - - - JUNE 2B. 1885. "We are indebted to ff. Simpson Af rica, Secretary of IntPrnal Affairs, for a opy of bis aDuual rvport for the year 198-1. The vr&r of 1912 closed more than seventy yeare ago, and yet, according to the Jaat RDDual report of the Commis- siorttr of Pensions, there are 3,898 sur viving sold, era and 9,512 widows on the peosiou rolls. JlCge Pattekson, of Lancaster county, hs made a very sensible decis ion in repnrd to th entertainment of travelers at hotels. He decides that it is not tor a landlord to determine whether it will suit his convenience or pleasure to entertain a person applying for ac com mod at Ion 9, but that within reason able horns he is bound to furnish meals to travelers although it may not be at the usual time fixed for serving them TirAT blatant demagogue, Dennis Kfjiiuey, who at one time occupied quite a ?roainent place among the low f ade poll' icians of California, and whose away was supreme over the howling mob tbat was accustomed to gather on tbe-an Franciscp Baud lots to listen to his rnt and profanity, has announced his intention to run for Governor of the State iiext year on the Workingmen's ticket. He says he will make a six months'' campaign, and that it will be 'tb most thorough and effective canvass ever witnessed in California, and that be win be elected.

Tuts President has appointed Judge Johu B. Stallo. of Cincinnati, United States Minister to Italy. It will be re numbered that soon after Mr. Cleve land entered upon the duties of his of fk he appointed Mr. Alex. M.

If this is true, it Is a very singular and a very silly objection. It is one, however, owing to the well es tablished custom among nations, that the President would be bound to respect, ml Mr. Keiley would then afford a rotable instance of an American seeking recognition as Minister to a foreign country nnder difficulties. "Durino Washington's second term of thi Presidency, nearly one hundred years ago, what is known as tbe "Whis key Insurrwtion" was organized by the people of .Western Pennsylvania. The t ac-: on whikey which caused the Scotch In in Westmoreland. Fayette, and AUegheny counties to rebel aaiust its p-rMrif-nt; was then only terem cents a gallon, and it was pure and unadultera ted. The average annual consumption at lat lime was about four gallons to aib head of the population It is now irune 11 any more man a gallon per tresrti, and of the meanest kind, but the people favor a revenue policy that im- postw a tax of ninety cents a gallon. sore than twelve times the amount of tb4uicient tax. The "Whisky Insur- tfe0" became so foimidittie that WiwtfHogTon. accompanied by Alexander Hamilton, Secretary of the Treasury, Hd ome other Government officials, left thr4eat of government and came or. s lar as Hedford on their way to PtttstxH-g to quell it.

If Matthew S. Quay is ever fortunate enough to see a copy of the Johnstown Tribune of last Monday, containing the proceedings of the Republican County Convention which met at Armory Hall, in this place on the afternoon of tbat day, he will be astonished at bis own greatness when he reads the following resolution, which was unanimously adopted by tbat body : Resolved. Tbat it is the sentiment of the Republican paity of Cambria county that Matthew S. Quay, a brave soldier, brilliant statesman, and a republican of unswerving fidelity, is entitled to the nomination for State Treasurer at the next Republican State Convention. The credit of the wonderful discovery that Quay is a "brilliant statesman," belongs to Thomas Davis, a delegate to the convention from the West ward, in this place, who offered the resolution and moved its adoption. We admire Quay as a man of brains and a shrewd politician, and if Davis bad stopped in his enlogium when be described him as "a brave soldier" and "a Itepublicau of unswerving fidelity," the resolution would have been Appropriate and in good taste, but when bis admiration for Quay soared away up into the clonds, and he pronounced him a "brilliant statesman," he robbed it of all claim to decent re spect and ran eulogy deep into the mud. If shrewd management of tbe local pol itics of Beaver county and successfully bossing the proceedings of a Republican State Convention are proofs of states manship. Quay is unquestionably enti tled to tbe extravagant praise bestowed upon him in tbe Davis resolution. Quay, howeyer, is simply a politician, exceptionally skillful and adroit, but all that dou't make him a brilliant statesman, nor a statesman of any kind. Chris Magee, the Pittsburg boss, is just as much entitled to be called a brilliant statesman as Quay, but no Republican has ever yet drawn so largely on public credulity as to set up such a ridiculous claim in bis behalf. When Quay is nominated for State Treasurer, as we have no doubt be will be, and when bis enthusiastic friend and backer, Thomas Davis, takes the stump in bis favor, as he is bound to do, we advise him to confine himself strictly to Quay's sol dier record as well as his devotion to the Republican party, and to let bis bril liant statesmanship severely alone. In no way are the people so villain ously swindled out of their money as in tbe erection of public buildings. A large portion of tte time of every session of Congress is taken up in what is known as "log rolling" bills through appropriating millions of dollars for tbe Uie erection of Government buildings in the different States, some of which are necessary, while others are not, most of them being on magnificent scale, invol ving enormous outlay. The same reck less expenditure attends the erection of public buildings by States and cities. Thecapitol building at Albany, N. Y., was begun in 1867, and was to cost not more than four millions of dollars, but up to last October sixteen and a half millions were spent upon it. and the Xew York Herald predicts that by next January it will leach eighteen millions, with a prospect that it will require sev eral millions more to finish it. The most amazing feature about it is that witi all this immense expenditure the building is pronounced a botched piece of work. Tbe city buildings in FbiPa mve. swanowea p millions and are only partially completed. Whether they will era: be fiuisfaed is a disputed ques tion. The people who have to foot the expense of these costly structures seem to love to be cheated. Ir Theodore H. Wigton, who is an officer of a bank in Altoona, is n't nom inated for State Treasurer by the Re publican State Convention, his failure can't be attributed toany lukewarmness in his behalf by the A!toona Tribune. That journal has boosted and continues to boost Wigton for the nomiuation with a persistency and vigor rarely to be met with in tbe colums of a newspaper. Its devotioc to Wigton is something phenomenal and altogether lovely. It is true that Wigton is n't gathering many delegates into hw net, but that little circumstaooe don't at all disturb tbe complacency of the Iribune, or weaken its editor's faith in his candidate. Well, from all w bear about Ml Wigton, he is an bonett man, but not quite euou.h so to be ooauinated for Stale Treasurer by a Republican State convention. While we eannot but admire tfce intense devotion o tJte Tribnne to Wigton's in terests, wecbudder wheu we think of its editor's feelings when he bears tbe result of the first ballot by the Conven tion. But 'tis ever thus. "I never loved a deargarelle," and so forth.

The Lancaster Areto Era sav : Penn- sylvania, more than anv other S( ate in the Tjnion, has from its first colonization been the favorite home of th Germans. Alhtough settled by Englishmen, and nnder English auspices by an English proprietor, the liberal tendencies of the latter were so great tbat be made a spe cial effort to secure colonists from Ger many, the more, perhaps, tbat be bad become acquainted with their bablts, thrift, industry and religion by personal intercourse witb them in their native land. The Mennonites of the Paliti nate did not differ widely in their re ligious tenets from tbe English Quakers who came over with Penn. At least, tbe differences were not deemed of suffi cient importance to form a barrier be tween the two races In their onward progress. Mild laws and religious tol eration were tbe great inducements held out, and not vainly, for from this early colony brought over by Pastorions in 1683. until the present day, there has been a steady stream of German colo nists into PennsylTania,nntil the Com monwealth is more Germanized than any other in the Union, perhaps one half of her entire population being able to speak or understand tbe German lan guage as modified among us by time and usage. What the German element has done for this State in too wel! known almost to require any mention. Its Industry has developed its mines and laid low its forests ; bas given it a wide and just code of laws ; bas fostered a thousand industries, and made it one of the no blest and most prosperous in the Union. Irom tbe earliest period of their ap pearance in the colony they became prominent. They protested earlier than either Puritan or Cavalier aeainst the corse of slavery. Although many of them, from their religious views, were non-combatants, they had from the first formed an important element in tbe military force of the State. As early as 1711 a thousand of them joined a Brit ish expedition against Canada. In later colonial times they were the defense of the settlements against Indian incur sions during the frequent wars between England and France. As settlers, they preferred the wooded frontier, and were therefore more exposed to the raids of the savages. No man in the early his tory of Pennsylvania rendered the colo ny greater services than that steady Ger man, honest Conrad Weisen. During tne Revolutionary war tbey were the bulwark of the province. A number of regiments were organized, composed solely of Germans ; no regi ments were without them. They were not only carrying muskets in the tanks, but they carried the swords of general officers. Their blood was shed on every battlefield from Charleston to Qebec. They occupied responsible positions in Congress, as well as out of it, and every where they did their duty like the true patriots they were. Read over the list of those who became prominent both in civil and military life and strike from it tne names of the Germans, and bow much will he left ? The war of the re belhon shows an equally proud record. Fully 200,000 Germans served in the Union armies, and once more they wore generals' epaulets, as well as marched in the ranks. They came direct from the Fatherland in many instances, but of course by far the largest number were boru on the soil and were citizens by a natural birthright. But it has not been as soldiers only that the Germans of Pennsylvania have earned an honorable record. They have invaded the domain of education in all its various ramifications. ' As scientists, financiers and si aresmnTi, and as mem bers of the learned professions, they have upheld the high reputation of the Father land. In the healing art. at the bar. and in the pulpit the German ele ment has alwavs been in the very fore rank, ranking second lo none other. The people of this State re a heteroge neous community, composed of many nationalities, but aM those apart from the Germans, united, do not carry the same weight, importance, or influence as the latter. It ia to them that Penn sylvania owes her prominent position in the proud galaxy of States. They have made her rich nnd prosperous. Thvy have given her the advanced position in education and general progress she now holds. Few people, even those of Ger man ancestry, give a thought to how much Pennsylvania owes to her German citizens. BLEED1SW IRELAND TO DEATH. United Ireland gives a irloo of the present industrial condition of Ireland ; and a gloomier forecast of what is to be, unless a radical change takes place In the near future. Blank stagnation is staring everybody iD the face. A settled feeling of despair seems to possess the people in presence of the frightful burden of taxation the Eng lish Government continues to impose upon them. Our Dublin cotemporary writes: "Another stand for the hare life will soon have to be made in Ire land. The existing system of land and government will have to be ended and not merely mended, before there ran be much improvement. Should there be an indifferent harvest, the jndicial rents will collapse all in a heap tbe next No vembor gale, and cannot be paid In any event beyond next May, if the present prices for Irish staples of produce do not grow better (and they may very easily grow worse). Irish industry is being bled to death through every ar tery. Think of it 1 If pays some fif. teen millions of pounds per annum still in rents to men who have never made a Wade grass grow (five millions ef it at least to absentees who never return a JHHi f U to lhe ,,lnd)- There are rnt thousand pounds more paid in Im perial taxation, and it is proposed to , tack on another three quarteis of a mil lion, as ireianrs share of the war cred it, to be spilled out on the steppes of xurcomania in fi?htinr Tbeie are fifteen millions more poured out m buying English oods, three fourths of which could just as well be made at home, wtiile our artisans stand wie and our laborers starve.

Exhausted, bled, and weighed to the earth with uch conditions the country always stands only a degree re moved from being famine-stricken.

An eminent French statesman when asked bow he accomplished orh a pro digious amount of work each day, re plied "by doing oue thing after an other." President Cleveland seems to understand this art ns well as if he were its inventor. lie examines all the papers in each and every case that comes before him. He will act on all the cases only as be reaches them In tbe course of his personal examination. It seems as if he had an a'.most endless job before bim, but it is bis way. and be seems de termined to go on as he has began. The candidates wbo depend largely or en tirely on verbal recommendations or J in fluence of outside newspapers will cer tainly get left. Tbe cases largely de pend upon tbe kind of papers that are filed, and the President holds respon sible parties wbo recommend a roan to a stiict account. It is to be feared that in the discus sion of appointments to office, the great and silent reform work which the new administration is carrying on may be overlooked. Though less than four months In office, and laboring under advantages, the public plunderers are being attacked and routed at every point. Stealing of the public domain has been to a considerable extent stopped, though much remains to be done. Secretary Lamar has proved tbe worst enemy the railway land-grabbers have ever met, and be has had the earn est support of Gen. Sparks the new Land Commisfioner. It is safe to say that no more unearned grants will be patented to the railway monopolists,and that as much as possibe of tbe land al. ready stolen in one way or another will be recovered and thrown open for set tlement. The great Maxwell grant is only ene series of enormous frauds which have been perpetrated through collusion between the ciaimants,the ter ritorial laiid officers, and the rings of Department officials. There is every reason to expect that this whole system of plundering will now be broken up. Hon. Geo. Jenks who has just been appointed assistant Secret ery of the In terior and given special charge of all cases for the forfeiture of land grants, shows that his work is to be undertaken in no half hearted way. While on the Judiciary Committee of the House Mr. Jen ks showed himself to be a thorough lawyer and his argument before the electoral commission was not inferior to the efforts of the great lawyer of Na tional reputation, Carpenter, Black and Merrick, who vainly tried to meet con spiracy with logic in tbat deplorable crisis. Mr. Whitney, the new Secretary of the Navy is steadily growing in popu larity with good men of all parties. Both the Navy and the country hail him as a deliverer from the regime of rings and corruption that bas preyed upon the country since the war and left our coasts in a defenseless condition. The exposure of the Dolphin fraud will be to the Naval establishment of as great importance as were t he Star Rout6 exposure to the Post. Office department. The action of the Post Master Gen eral regarding the Pacific Mail steam ship subsidy is very signiflcent. It will be remembered that the Republican ma jority in the Senate forced the passage of a bill giving $400,000 to the Pacific steamship company for carrying tbe mails. Mr. Vilas finds that there is no need of paying more for carrying ocean mails than is now paid. Since tbe act of (Congress is not mandatory, but merely give? permission to spend the money, the Post Master will, with the approval of the President , take no action in the matter, but remit the subject lo Congress for more explicit legislation. It is not probable that the Republican agents of the lobby in tbe Senate will be able to again pass the bill and the sum of $400,000 will be saved to the tax payer. , . K. Columbus O., June 16. The State Board of Agriculture has compiled a comparative statement of the wheat yield, based on official telegrams and priv ite nources. of th present probabil ities with the known five years' average, estimated by the United States Depart ment of Agriculture. The total aver age for the past five years in the United States was 412.355609 bushel, white the estimates for 1S85 are 230.779.000, showing a shortage of 181,576,699 bush els. The board gives a list of twenty States, and assumes that those not men tioned will have a full average crop. They wonld still have a probable short age of ISO. 000,000 bushels, or over 240. 000.000 bushels as compared with last year's full crop. Michigan nnd New York seem to be the only two States showing full wheat eropa. The short age i.s in Ohio. Indiana. Illinois, Mis souri, Kansas and Calfornia, the six great winter wheat States. These States only provide a yield 90.000.0(X) bnshels, which is a shortage of 113,000.000 bush els over t he fi v ye ai s' average. The re port concludes : "There can be no longer any possib'e doubt that ibis year's wheat crop of the United States is to be the moat disastrous failure for nearly a score of years, and there is nothing to be gained by denying or striving to mit igate the fact, or trying to le; the pub lic down gently to the knowledge of it." Bltmfnas Cal Dlatrlet. We learn from the New York Coal Trade Journal, that : "According to the newly constituted boundaries, the bituminous coal reelon of Pennsylvania is diyMed as follows : First District, Green and Wash log ton conn ties, Allegheoy southeast of the Allebeny river and Beaver south ot tbe Otiio ; Second District, Indiana, Armstrong norto of tbe Red Bank and the remnant of Allegheny Third District.

Fayette and Som erset ; Sixth District, parts of Clearfield and Centra not in the third and fourth dis tricts, Bedford, and Huntingdon, BUtr and Cambria." Tlie KepattlM f m Standard Article Is seldom Injured by surreptitious rivalry. Imitators of Hostetter's Stomach Bitters have not only lost money by attempting un derhand competition with it, hot have actu ally contributed to enhance the estimation In which the genuine medicine ia held. Tbe pa bile at large has for many years been ae j quainted with the ear marks that distinguish j the real from the purlouR, and cannot be j persuaded that othec articles sold In a some what similar guise are eqnally good. Fever and ague, constipation, drspepsla and liver complaint are not curable, by cheap local bitters, eye openers and tonics, but the fact fe too well proven and too generally known to admit of conscientious dispute, that for these and other maladies the great household medicine is a safe and thorough remedy. Not only In the Un ited States, but in Mexl CO, South America and the Went Indies its merits are widely recognized and Its repot, tioa too firmly established to be shaken. my22,'85-lyr. Richard T.
