3 i s i (Ciunlma Jw uron. EBCNSBURC. PA.. FRIDAY, - - JUNE 4. 18S6. It is but simple justice to Rutherford U. Hayes, of Fremont, Ohio, to state tl:t lie indignantly denies the news- I i;r reixjrt that he is laying pipe to rfff 't his nomination for Congress in the district latelv represented by Frank TIjrd. The Rev. Mr. Scott, pastor of the Congregational church, at Evanston, Illinois, has been asked to resign on the ground of neglect ot his pastoral duties and lack of interest in the work of the church. From published 'n'erviews the specific offenses charged a,T inst Mr. Scott appear to be smoking cigars in public and riding a bycicle. Nothing involving his moral character is charged. Mr. Scott demands an in vestigation and he is likeiy to get more of it than he wants. The New Jersey Prohibition Conven tlon which met at Newark last week .iominated Gen. Clinton B. Fisk for Governor. The nominee is one of the most eloquent stump speakers in the country and is a much abler man than St. John, the Prohibition candidate for the Presidency two years ago. The Jersey Republicans or rather the anti- liquor portion of the Republican party. did their best to form a coalition with the Prohibitionists on the State ticket, but the latter wouldn't trust them and especially so since the late Republican Legislature defeated a Local Option bill which it was pledged to pas?. It is estimated that within the last four weeks $3,000,000 in wages have been lost to working men throughout the country. Fstimated for the last four months the sum is immensely greater, the total loss in various ways being not iess than $30,000,000. One item of this is 120,000,000 on building contracts which have been abandoned Dv reason of the eight hour and other demands, which have mainly failed. To tDis should be added the constructive and incidental losses resulting from want of confidence and the stand still condition of business forsometime past, the consequences of which workmen have to bear their part. Tub Tory press of England is just now pouring out the vials of its wrath upon thedevoted headiof Mr. Gldtone. One of them. Vanity Fair holds him up ag "a convicted teller of fa'.fruood ; hia lies ar gross a a mountain, open, pa'rable." "He has descended to meanness deeper than ever plummet sounded," and much more of the same sort. Gladstone, how ever, will survi ve all tne assaults of Tory misrepresentation and malice and will continue to light the battle in favor of the rights of Iieland until his efforts are at last crowned with success. He may be defeated now, crushed to the earth, but he will rebound to his feet with renewed strength and vigor to resume the coLflict. As an orator John A. Logan is "grand, gloomy and peculiar," as will be Feen from the following extract from his eulogy on General Grant at the tomb of th latter in Riverside Tark, N. Y., on Monday last : A man has lived, who, weighed with the enormous results flowing from his work Into the ramifications of the un known future, was immeasuraby greater than Cyrus, above Alexander, greater than (Jtca.ir, supreme over Tompey, Han nibal and Scipio, towering among Charlemagne, the Piince of Orar.ge, Frederick the great, Wellington and Napoleon, and whose name is not to be mentioned in connection with those of Miltiades and Sulla. In all authentic history the work of but one individual approaches that of Grant." "I am at a loss to form an opinion as to what will be the condition of the Democratic party when this Congress adjourns," said that veteran Democrat, Judse Holman,of Indiana,ln Washing ton one day last week. There is no cause for wonder at Judge Holman's Inability to discount the outcome of the present Congress. The House contains a majority of over forty Democrats and their constituents have a clear right to demand that the pledges in favor of re trenchment and reform made to the people at Chicago when Cleveland was nominated shall be honestly fulfilled. Mr. Cleveland has always stood prepared to redeem every promise made by his party In the Chicago platform, but un less the House carries out its pledges the President is powerless. It makes no difference that the Senate is Republican. It ought to be forced to take the re sponsibility of rejecting the legislation by the House to which the Democracy of the country is solemnly committed. Instead of cutting down expenditures the appropriations have been increased, as is abundantly shown by the passage through the House of a ieckless and ex travagant River ard Harbor bill. Time after time the House has been without a quorum, so that men like Judge Ilolnian. Mr. Randall and others, are unable to make a move with any cer tainty of success. Absenteeism, and therefore no quorum, I. as ben the curse of the present House as it has been of so many former Houses. One day two weeks ago ninety members were absent at the horse races a few miles from Washington, when they ought to have beu In their seats earning their salaries, and attending to the business before the House. It only takes one man, Mr. Cleveland, to make a quorum in the White House, and he is always there, workir-g like a dray horse, and always ready to discharge his duties. If the House was only half aa intent on per forming its duty as the President is in the discharge of his own, Mr. Holman would not have such great cause to com plain. Now is the time as the session is drawing to close, that the worst jobs are likely to be put through, and the Democrats in the House can yet redeem their promises to a very great extent if hey will go resolutely to work and de- t them. L-t them remember that will Us a Congressional election j oveuibtr. rcb There is no county in the State in which money is so lavishly and corruptly used to control primary elections as in the countv of Lancaster. This has been the case in that county year after year and although it has been openly and vigorously denounced as often as it has occurred by the JVctc Era, the leading Republican paper of that county, the parly bosses continue the debauching practise in open defiance of the plain provisions of the act of Assembly of It was to cut up by the roots thi3 wholesale corruption at primary elec tions, that a Lancanster county member of the Legislature drew up and had passed the act above referred to. The Republican primary election in that county took place on last Saturday week, and by common consent It is ad mitted to have surpassed all the previous ones iii the unblushing use of money to corrupt the voters. The Lancaster cor respondent of the Philadelphia Times avers that a day or two before the prim aries took place a messenger from Har- risburg brought to the county a paskage of twenty-five hundred dollars, that the men to whom the money was delivered gave one Jake Strine Gve hundred dollars thereof to control the vote of the bor ough of Columbia, in which h? lived. in favor of the nomination of Summy for State Senator, the aforesaid Summy being an avowed friend of that guileless Statesman, MatthewS. Quay, for United States Senator, that for some reason Strine went back on the arrangement and subsequently declared that Le would return the money to Quay. The Quay candidate, Summy, waa defeated by his opponent, Stehman. Who raised this corruption fund of 52,500? Jake Strine evidently understood where it came from when he declared that he would return it to Quay. We have here then M. S. Quay at his old 'game which he knows so well how to play. From his place in the Treasury Department at Harrisburg he attempts to dictate the nomination of a State Senator in Lan caster county who is his friend for United States Senator, and unless all the surroundings are deceptive he sends a round sum of money there to accom plish his purpose. Practical politicians like Quay have an utter contempt for an act of Assembly whose purpose is to prevent the corrupt use of money in carrying a primary election. And yet Quay who manipulated the pardon of his friend Bill Kemble, who was convicted of corrupt solicitation in con nection with the Pittsburg riot damage bill, is likely to carry of! the prize of the next U. S. Senatorship without a serious struggle. To such base nses have Re publican politics in Pennsylvania come al last. Jon.vxN Most, the New York An archist, and his two intimate associates and co-workers, Schenck and Braunpch weig, were convicted on Friday last of the offence of inciting to riot by the speeches they have been in the habit cf making iu several halls In that city in defense of their peculiar theories in re gard to the right of men to acquire property and to be protected in its peace able enjoyment. We don't suppose that Most ever did an honest day's work in his life, certainly not since he has been in this country, and presumably not in Germany where ho spent the greater portion of his revolutionaiy career in prison. His notion of liberty of speech is that a man has a perfect right to say anything he pleases without being called to account for it; to preach doctrines which, if once put into practice, would uproot society, destroy all peace and order, make all property common, let ting him take who caa and letting him keep who is able. lie fights under a red flag bearing the inscription, "the possession of property is robbery." He urges his deluded hearers to purchase arms and hold nightly drills in order that they may be prepared to enforce their agrarian demands either by the bullet or at the point of the bayonet. His aim is to create a war, not of words, but h war of blood and rapine on the part of the working men against their employers. That his destructive doc trines will ever find any great foothold in this country of liberty and law is not seriously dreaded. The working man can and will protect his rights through the peaceable exercise of the ballot, an instrumentality unknown to such apostles of Anarchy as Most, whose proper place of domicile is in a prison. TriE Chicago Grand Jury on yester day week returned iudictmenta against August Spies and five other Anarchists for murder in connection with the Hay market massacre on the night of the 4th of May, when a dynamite bomb waa thrown into the ranks of the police kill ing five of their number. The cases of several other Anarchists are under con sideration by the Grand Jury. Quite a number of Anarchists in St. Louis and Milwaukee are under arrest and will be put upon their trial as soon aa true bills are fouud against them. It is absolute ly necessary for the peace of the country and the protection of human life that every nest of these scoundrels in the large cities, where the opportunities for disseminating their infamous doctrines are almost unlimited, should be broken up,and that they should be sternly taught that this is a country of liberty and not of license to preach the doctrines of the followers of the the Red flag in Berlin and Paris. It is not such a state of affairs as Thomas Jefferson meant when he said that error of opinion could be tolerated when reason is left free to combat It. Ararchy means the death of the Government and its bloody advo cates must be put down by the strong aim of the law. REsrECTixu the future course of Mr. Gladstone on the Home Rule bill the Philadelphia Ttwyrd of a late date, says: It has been determined that after the Home Rule bill shall have passed its second reading it will be laid aside and reconstructed for presentation ia the early part of the autumn session of Par liament. Mr. Gladstone's object un doubtedly ia to work up the constituen cies during the summer months, so that if an appeal to the country shall be necessary he can return to the nouse of Commons with a largely increased ma jority. In this view of the oue.stion th larneintea are said to agree with him; and it is to be hoped that durin? the' interval no coritinguency shall arise to imperil the succts of the plan. Sort Soap for the Prohibitionists. The nnabating determination of the Frohibitionists to keep up t heir separate party and press their favorite issue frightens the Republicans, and tney are row at their old trick of pretending a deep and respectful interest in temper ance. Moreover, the struggles of the Wets and the Drys, aud the successes of the latter in the South, have undoubted ly been carefully considered by the shrewder Republican politicians. They want to go far enough to bamboozle the prohibition element in the party without offending the anti Prohibitionists or breaking with Republican saloon keep ers. This is difficult, but the Republi cans are used to it. The walls of the Republican ehop are hung with the chastest temperance mottoes, but easi ness is brisk tt the bar all the same. If the Republican party would come out as a parly for high license, the pros-vx-c.Ik of rational temperance legislation would be greatly improved. But the Republicans are merely talking temper ance for political effect, and so only that effect need be taken into account. Sup- nasfl there should be a eeneral imitation in Republican States of the example of the New jersey nepuoncaa jjunuciaua who held a conference this week appar ently for the purpose of discounting the effect of the Convention which began the next day. of the Prohibitionists of that State. Suppose in addition that every Republican platform should have more than the usual Republican quota of fair words for tem iterance reform and denunciation of rum, and should go as far as may be dared tow-ird soothing the Prohibitionists and keening restive I'ro hibition Republicans within the fold. What will it all amount to ? The Republicans are very stupid if they do not see that the Prohibitionists are permanently separated from me Jte publican party, having been deceived by it too often. The Prohibitionist are even more bitter against the Republi cans than against the Democrats, for at least there is nothing hypocritical about the attitude of the latter with reference to the question of liquor prohibition. And the bitter attack of the Republi cans uoon St. John and his Sinjiuners in 1SS4 are vet fresh in the recollection of the Prohibitionists. W believe the Prohibitionists to be wholly wrong ia their theory, and that hiffh license is the correct and rational solution of the liquor question. At the same time it is not to be denied that the Prohibitionists are sensible in expecting nothing from the Republicans, and in seeking to attain their object by means of a separate party, ine large pronm: tion element in the Republican party which still hopes that the Republicans will some time fairly and squarely make an issue of prohibition, or which for nurelv political reasons ia averse to a separate Prohibition partv. may ftill allow itself to be leceived. The Prohi bitionists, however, will goon their way as actively and earnestly as ever, witn out payine any attention to Republican professions of sympathy with thim, and it may chnr.ee that in more than one close State the Prohibitionists may be able to have a serious or even decisive effect upon the result of elections. Cer tain!y it is their cue to beat the Tlepub- llcans rather than the Democrats, for from the latter they can expect nothing, while the former may learn from the ic peated cudgelines that the Prohibition ists mean business, and that the Repub lican party must tiecotue prohibitionist in earnest if it wants the prohibition vote. A". 1". Sun. Religion vs. Anarchy. Two classes of persons reject religion, besides the very tew from whose mental constitution the ideas and emotions of the religious nature are omitted. The majority of those who profess atheism or agnosticism are either the ignorant and degraded or the superficially culti vated and egotistic. The former are ruined by misfortune. The former have had adisolate experience, through which they are hardly able to discern a benevo lent Creator or Providence ; the latter have come through uninterrupted pros perity and one sided culture to the opin ion that there is no mind superior to their own in the universe. When scholars and "gentlemen" des pise religion, they dissent in private, or in club houses, or, at the most in maga zine essays. But the proletariat does not rest content with this mild, nega tive protest ; it makes a positive utter ance of its fidelity assails establish ments of worship :a blasphemous tirades, takes irreligious sentiments for its urn', toes, and attacks the institutions ov r which the church stands guard. Atten tion is directed, of late, to the legend inscribed on the banners of Chicago Anarchists ; and many are found of the sort represented by this inscription : "We want no God, no religion and no masters." The men who paraded un der that banner also march behind the red flag, inveigh against property, are the foes of marriage, plot treason and murder, aud put their plans in execu tion. They do not stop with the civil cavil, the polite sneer, the materialistic argument. It may make no seeming difference to the polished skeptic, pmil ing at Christian faith over his wine, whether there be an all-wise, all-loving governor of the world. He has little in a worldly way of which to complain ; but to the man with whom fate and society have not dealt so indulgently the difference ia immense. If there be no benevolent purpose behind the in equalities of social conditions, no power that works for righteousness, that aids the noble endeavor, confounds the evil and rebukes the selfish, why should he bear with an uncomfortable lot or trust moral agencies to make the world more tolerable for him and his posterity ? If he be already allied to the baser orders of society, his unbelief keeps him at his original level; if he have not yet de scended to the grade of those who hope nothing from this life or the life to come, the despair of his creedless estate usual ly reduces bim to their companionship. Hatred of mankind is the master pas sion at those depths; alliance in crime is the bond of comradeship. Irreligion may be a private matter when fops or literati profess it ; it is a public concern when accepted by the brotherhood of poverty or crime. Perhaps many who had boasted their insensibility to devout impressions, see ing their doctiines in the horrid glare of nihilistic war, will learn sobriety, and talk in whispers for a while, or ad mit the practical value of churches and pious convictions. Like worldly-wise old Major Pendennis, they may even at tend divine services itself for the influ ence of their pattern, paying all the de ference involved In the doctrine that religion is the mainstay of governments, guardian of pub'.ic peace and inspirer of the domestic virtues. Syracuse, X. 1'. Standard. The Attack on a Crippled Soldier. The malicious lying done by Senator Ingalls, of Kansas, in his brutal assault on Pension Commissioner Black cannot be excused, while an extenuating cir cumstance may possibly be baesed on the theory that Ingalla was so carried away by pas'on and partisan hate that he hardly knew what he was saying ; though, of course, such a plea would deprive the the Senator's utterances of all cliim to consideration. General Biack is a disabled Union soldier who has never failed in his duty in peace or war. In his present position he has been active in defeating the machina tions of dishonest pension claimants and ha? done much to break up the scandalous practices which brought dis grace upon the Pension Office under the Republican administrations. St. Louus rost-Diiialch. The General Assembly at Cleveland. A special meeting of the General As sembly of the Knights of Labor begins in Cleveland to-day. jiucn or tue dusi ness for which the meeting has been called is of high importance, necent experience has shown that the weakest point of the organization ia its lack oi a proper system or government ana ais cipline. The General Executive Board have tco little authority, and even mat authority has not been respected. The power to strike and to boycott has been recklessly and foolishly used by some of the district assemblies, lr the order is to be useful to its membors and to have the support of public opinion, it cannot afford to repeat such performances as the Martin Irons strike. In the last re sort that strike was taken up Dy tne General Master Workman, but if the General Executive Board had the power to interfere before, the strike would never have been begun. Every senseless boycott and unjustifi able strike ordered by a local assembly must in the end be ineffectual, and, moreover, must both diminish th re sources of the Knights and create a doubt about them, or a prejudics against them in the public mind. There should De a strong central authority whose de cisions should be respected, and offend ing assemblies should be expelled. The fools and hotheads in the district as semblies, who are always anxious to start a boycott or a strike apparently for the purpose of showing the power of the organization, should be squelched before thev tret a chance to weaken and dis grace the order. No strike should be ordeied except with the sanction of the central authority after investigation, and upon proof that A strike is justifi able and likely to prove successful. As for the boycott, it would probably be wiser for the Knights to leave it alone altogether. At any rate, boycotts should not be begun for trivial causes. The relations of the Knights of Labor with the trades unions will also be con sidered at the Cleveland meeting, but changes in the laws of the order in re ference to strikes and boycotts and to the enlargement of the powers of the General Executive Board, will be the principal business of the Assembly. Without a wise and coherent plan of government the Knights cannot expect to get the benefit of their organization and without such a plan the order, dis tracted and divided by local quarrels. might fall to pieces because of its num bers. A. 1 . dim. President Cleveland's Personality. The Piesident's vetoes are public ser vices which the country will appreciate, ice pension vetoes and tae message upon the proposal to make Springfield in Massachusetts, an inland city of 40,000 inhabitants, a port of entry, show a careful regard for the details of legisla tion and for the public welfare, which are characteristic of their author. He does not approve laws because a major ity of his friends in Congress aay iave voted for them, nor tolerate raids upon the Treasury because both parties, for political objects, may have supported them. It is not surprising that the vetoes are exciting great attention in Congress. They are exciting no less at tention and great approbation in the country at large. The President's personal qualities are a force in the present political situation much too important to be overlooked by any sagacious politician. If they do not secure the heatry admiration of the lead ers and organs of his party they com mand the confidence of good citizens in all pr.r'-ies, and that is the ultimate con trolling power in politics. The leal leader is the man who apprehends cor rectly that sentiment, and acts accord ir gly. It is the Democratic party that, returiiing to power, after a quarter cf a century, amid gr.r.s-ml d:stiust and ap prehension, it has brought into the Presidency a man so 'plainly btnt up n j honest, government and so strong and j corageousasMr. Cleveland, under whose I administration that d strust and vague j apprehension of calami! of tamper ing with the finances, of favoring con- ' federate objects, of rt pealing good laws, have disappeared. This is an immense ad vantage for the President's party, because it deprives the Republicans of that appeal to fi ;ir which was one of the mosr, persn:tive arguments in SI, and it relieves tW-..d irterestsof the appr henaion that liiey would be imperiled by !) motraiic suc cess. This last ia a change which will be probably apparent in the contribu tions to the Republican party treasury. Every vetoe, is plainly in the interest of the public aud not of a party, will deepen ai,d extend thisconfidence, while o'd and exhausted party cries and little captious "digs" at his course will avail nothing against the effect of his sturdy integrity arid obvious honest purpose. Harper's Weekly. Why the Irish Like Green. The early Celts worshiped the Dawn and the Sunrise. It is more than prob able that the Irish preference of the color green, for their fUg and their sashes, arose from a mistake among those who had lost a thorough knowl edge of the old Irish language. The sun, in Irish, is called by a word pro nounced like our word "green," and it is likely that the Irish fondness for that color arose from the word's exact like ness in sound to their word for the sun. In the same way, when we talk about greenhouses, we think they are called so because the plants are kept green in them during winter. Yet it is far more probable that "green," here, is the Irish word meaning, not the color, but the sun ; because greenhouses are built so as to catch the sun's rays and store them up while it is hidden by c!ouds,as happens more than half the time in showery Ireland. June Century. Unusually large hailstones have fallen In different sections of the country within a month, but it seems none equalled in size those that descended last week during a storm In Harrington, Kan., that Is thus de scribed by the Topeka Capital. The hail lay two feet thick over a thousand acres In one solid body ia the vicinity of the town, and many of tbo hail stones were as large as the doubled fist of a full grown man. The heavy rain which fell with the bail washed them from the hich ground into the valleys in ereat rldees from four to six feet In height. Evpry spear or vegetation was com pletely destroyed, as were also all fruit and shade trees. Every window In Harrington was broken. Cholera seems to be lurking in most of the Italian cities on the Mediterranean coast. It has not developed thns far to the proportions attained during the summer and fall of 1884 and 1885, but it must be remem bered this is still spring and not the season of the cholera's greatest ravages. Latest advices also report Us reappearance at Mar seilles, In France, a port with which this country carries on a very extensive traffic. In fact, since the fruit trade of this country with the natives of Southern Europe has reached such vast proportions, only the most rigid enforcement of strict quarantine reau lations will protect us from the invasion of this dreaded scourge.
