Mr.. Parnell's hill to prevent evic

House of Commons last week by a vote

predict from this decisive action of the
Tory majority that a w inter of gloom
and suffering looms up before unhappy
Ireland. H.r sons, however, as well as
her sympathizers on this side of the wa
ter will do their utmost, to relieve the
evicted tenants. For this purpose Rev.

! veek and continued balloting until Sat

' meet at the same place on Wednesday
; Usr. It la not at all likely that we will
be able this week to publish anything
j drtjr.ite regarding the action of the
I conference. The supreme folly of each
j county in a Congressional district em
j pjwering its own candidate to select his
conferrees is no apparent that it admits
j of no defense w hatever. Each candidate
I selects as bis conferrees men whom he
j knows will adhere to nim men who
: will die in the last ditch. Wherein is
tn difference between this personal de
votion of the conferrees to the man who
is the choice of their county, and author
izing the candidates themselves to meet
and make a Domination ? The absurd
conclusion to which this custom may
lead has just been illustrated in the
Crawford, Mercer and Butler district,
where the conferrees after balloting for
weeks have confessed their inability to
agree, and have turned the matter over
j to the Republican State Committee for
I adjustment, with the chances largel in
I favor of Roberts, the Crawford county
candidate. Why ? Simply because he
j is enormously rich, and will contribute
I liberally to the campaign fund of the
Stat? Committee. In this way ani for
the reason stated a man may be foisted
on the Republicans of the district whom
it is well known they do not want. The
outcome iu this district will be different
and one of the four candidates now be
fore the conference will be nominated,
j At least this is our present impression.
A little more than a year ago Gen.
j Beaver delivered a speech at a public
! rmeting iu Bellefonte, where be resides,
In which he took open ground in favor
: or enf orcing by appropriate, legislation
j the provisions of the new constitution
in regard to railroads. At that time
! there was a very decided feeling tbrough-
I out the state against the constitutional
right of the i'ennsylvania Railroad Com
pany to purchase the finished Beech
Creek and the unfinished South I'enn
sylvania roads. The question of consti
tutional right to do so was decided
against the Pennsylvania Railroad by
j the Dauphin county court, and the mat
j ter is now awaiting final decision by the
. Supreme court of the state. The same
i Gen. Beaver, now the Republican nom
; inee for Governor, went to Fittsburg
I last week and delivered a speech at ilu-
sic Hal!, in which be discussed a great
i variety of subjects, but on the subject of
: anti discrimination be seems to bare
j 1;ul wllich ig deafl and buried G
Beaver kindly told his Pittsburg audi
ence that "in order to acquaint our
people (the people of Pennsylvania) with
the provisions of the b'll, and with the
position of the Republican party on this
question, an abstract and also the full
tsxt of the bill have been published by
our state committee, aud is being circu
lated iu pamphlet form. All who desire
to acquaint themselves with the details
of this eubject should procure and care
fully study this pamphlet." This is the
remedy, a sort of Mrs. Winslow's Sooth
ing Syrup, invented by Dr. Thomas V.
! Coolr' tbilrmD of the Republican
j State Committee, and endorsed by James
A. Beaver, the Republican candidate
for Governor, as a certain cure for the
evils of railroad discrimination in Penn
1 sylvania. Geu. Beaver will deliver this
! same speech all over the state, and will
j expect the people to vote for bim. Their
j reply, unless we underrate their inteili
! gence, will be: The men. both Demo
j crats and Republicans, who framed the
i cjnstitutio-i, and the people of the State
j who adopted if by a majority of 150,000
j votes, inteuded fbaf if should be carried
I out both in its letter and in its spirit.
Enforce, therefore, its anfi-discrimina-tion
provisions contained in the XVII
Article by necessary and appropriate
I Ieifisl f ion, or repeal that specific article
; whose non-enforcement by the legislature
I for twelve years bas been a standing
public reproach.
i For that pure and able statesman,
i Allan G. Tburman, of Ohio, the Democ
I racy of the whole country entertain a
! feeling of profound respect and confi-
dence. It is always pleasant to hear
1 from him and to learn that his devotion
! to the party of which be is so distin
j guished a representative is as warm and
steadfast as ever, and that his only
aVsire and hope are still for Democratic
' success. He was In Cincinnat! last
j week, and one night the Thurmau Club
tendered birr, arousing serenade at the
Gibson House, in that city, where h
was stopping. In response to repeated
cheers the old war horse appeared and
said :

Two States.
There bave been times In its history
when the Democratic party has allowed
itself to forget its mission as the party
of the poor man, the wage earner, the
man of the masses, ind to follow tempo
rarily after false gods. But these depar
tures have been neither numerous nor
frequent, and always it has come back
to the Btiaighc path of duty, and aligned
itself with the advocates of what was
designed to assure the greatest good to
the greatest number.
As illustrating its Inevitable tendency
to the defense ard protection of the great
army of labor ag unst the demons of mo
nopoly and centralization, its attitude at
this time in the two states of Prnosylva
nia and Connecticut is worthy of special
remark. It is the same party every
where, of course, but in these two states
the lines are perhaps more sharply drawn
than anywhere else. In Connecticut the
Republican candidate for Governor is
practically a New Yorker. He sleep
and eats some of bis meals in Connecti
cut, to be sure, but he is President of a
National bank ia New York, and there
his interests chiefly lie. He who is to be
the Democratic candidate on the other
hand State Senator E. S. Cleveland
has for twenty years been the devoted
friend of the workmgmen. "He was
the author of the IIoinstea4 law, that
allows everv farmer tnd workmgmau an
equity of 11000 in his homestead. He
Delieves in and advoca'es wetkly pay
ments; a secret ballot which will secure
an incorruptible and unintimidated
vote ; proper sanitary rules for factories ;
restriction of child labor, and all the
other beneficent measuies that the
workingmen have ben trying for a
score of years to have adopted."
Here in Pennsylvania the R publican
candidate is the tool of the political
bosses, who bas once been iepudiated
by the people of the state on that ac
count ; the president of a corporation ;
the part owner of a compoy store and
issuer of store orders involving a direct
infraction of the law. His Democratic
opponent has just signalized his sympa
thy for labor by inditing one of the best
and strongest and most practical letters
in defense of its title to fuller recogni
tion of the statutes that has evr been
put in print. And his is no conversion
of yesterday either. Imbio'ng the ad
vanced sentiments of his venerated fa
ther, and profiting by and improving on
them, he has, ever since his first en'ry
into public life, been conspicuous for his
courageous and intelligent advocacy of
greater reft rict ions of the power of con
centrated wealth in the industrial world
and larger liberty for the toilers.
These are comparisons that no irtelli
gent woikingman cn avoid formulating
for himself, and their meaning raus;
needs be plain. If the workingmen are
true to themselves they will elect these
Democratic candidates in both states.
If they are true to themselves they will
take hold of the Democratic parly in all
the states as it bas been taken hold of
iu these two, and by simply keeping
true to itseir, keep It true to thm the
s rongest defense they can possibly have
and the only defense they can need .n
their manful battle for just protection
and proper encouragement uider the

Lincoln's Speech at tiettysburg.
The cemetery on the battle field of
Gettysburg was consecrated on the 19. b
of November, 1804. The oration was
delivered by Edward Everett, of Massa
chusetts, and was an eloquent and im
pressive address. The address of dedi
cation was delivered by the President, in
that simple, inspired style in which he
at times was such a conspicuous master.
His words will last contemporaneous
with the fame of the great struggle. Mr.
Lincoln said :
"Fourscore aud seven years ago our
fathers brought forth upon this continent
a new nation, conceived in liberty, and
dedicated to tbe proposition that all men
are created equal. Now we are engaged
in a great civil war, testing whether
that nation, or any nation, so conceived
and eo drdicated, can long endure. We
are met on a great battle field of that
war. We are met to dedicate a portion
of it as the final resting place of those
who here g-tve their livs that that na
tion might live. It iu altogether fitting
and proper that we should do this. But,
in a larger sense, we cannot dedicate, we
cauuot consecrate, we cannot hallow
this ground. The brave men, living
and dead, who struggled here, have
consecrated it far above our power to
add or detract. The world will little
note nor long remember what we say
here, but it can never forget what they
did here. It is for us, the living, rathei
to De dedicated here to the unfinished
work that the have thus far so nobly
carried on. It is rather for us to be here
dedicated to the great task remaining
before us that from these honored dead
we take increased devotion to tbe cause
for which they here gave the full meas
ure ot devotion that we here highly
resolve that the dead shall not have died
in vain that the nation shall, under
God, have a new birth of freedom, and
that Government of the people, by tbe
people, for the people, shall not perish
from the earth."
Of this exquisite effort, which drew
tears to the eyes of every one that beard
it, the Westminster Review said, in an
uncontrollable burst of admiration :
"This oration hus but one equal : that
pronounced upon those who fell during
the first year of the Peloponnessian
war ; and in one respect it is superior to
that great speech. It is not only natural,
fuller of feeling, more touching and pa
thetlc, but we know with absolute cer
tainty that it was really delivered. Na
ture here takes precedence of art, even
though it be the art of Thucydides."
South Carolina Again Disturbed.
Charleston. S. C, Sept. 27. Slight
earthquake shocks were felt here at two
minutes past five o'clock this afternoon,
accompanied by a loud, rumbling sound.
The shock lasted about two seconds.
Houses were shaken perceptibly, aod a
number of persons rushed out into the
streets. No damage was done beyond
the falling of loose plastering. The
flam shock was also felt at Savannah,
Summerville, OrangebuTg, Camden,
Graniteville, Hopkins, Kingville and
Ten Mile Hill. The work of the Relief
Committee is progressing favorably. A
prominent contractor who has been ad
vertising for bricklayers and plasterers,
stated today that, io his opinion, from
.r00 to 1000 workmen of that class would
find employment here during the winter
and spring at $4 a day and upwards.
The supply at present is not half equal
to tbe demand.
AccotrNTSof the massacre of Catholic
missionaries and convert in armthurn
China show that tbe race of martyr is
by no means extinct. Father Terrace,
who had lived for nine years in Yunna,
when a mob surrounded bis house at
night, gathered his followers Into the
chapel, gave the last absolution, went to
tbe door, and, preseutiug himself to tbe
rabble, sid : "Here am I to answer for
all." He was at once cut down by sa
bres. Father Bechet, a young priest in
Tongking, saw a number of his converts
beheaded, and then, refusing to be bound
or blindfolded, offered his neck to the
executioner without a tremor. Father
Chatelet, ordered to descend to the
place of execution, as hundreds of his
converts had done, said : "I shall not go
so far. If you want my bead come aud
ge it." The sorus made short work
of him where be stood.

I he state Campaign.
The election of GoverLor, Lieutenant
Governor, Auditor General, Secretary of
Internal Affairs and Congressman-at-Large,
with a full Congressional delega
tion, half the S ate Senate and the lull
quota of R-presentatives, is cow little
more than five weeks distant, but there
is not even a lippe of excitement along
the political lines. Field Marshal Coop
er. with Quay as the power oehind the
Marshal's :usignia of auihonty figures
out tbe regulation Republican majority
for General Beaver because there is, ac
cording to the Times Almanac, a clean
showing of a Repub ican maj ntv in the
State at every election since 1877, when
an off year accident gave the Democrats
the victory ; and Field Marshal Heusel
serenely figures on the outside political
elements as certain to elect Mr. Black
and revolutionize the politics of the
State.
In point of fact, the present contest is
exceptional in the history of modern
Pennsylvania politics. It is exceptional
not only in the very loose political lines
of both parties, but also in the indepen
dent sloughing off all around from both
the old parties. General Beaver may be
elected Governor, but. if elected, he will
be in a large minority of the full vote
polled, aud Mr. Biack may be elected in
like manner. The old parties are deci
dedly loose on their hinges and rickety
in their swing, while Prohibition, Li
cense, Labor and anti Discrimination
have a distinct following of not less than
one-fifth tbe whole vote of the state.
How strongly any or all of them may tie
crystallized five weeks hence, is the one
problem that afflict s the dreams and dis
turbs the political arithmetic of both
Black and Beaver. Prohibition will
probablv poll 50.000. bui. if so. will one
or two tenths or more of it be D -mocrat-ic
? It may poll nearer 100,000 votes,
depending upon causes yet to be devel
oped in I be contest, but if it shall grow
to any such colossal proportions, ic will
draw a larger percentage from the Dem
ocrats than if it polls only 30 000.
The industry of the State ia more di
rectly enlisted in the pr-sent struggle for
the Governor and the. Legis'atnre than
ever before, and that interest is not con
fined to what is known as organized la
bor. The agricultural industry, the
controlling power of the State, if united
in its own behalf, while? not in harmony
with the struggle for shorter hours and
better pay for a'or. is vitally interes'ed
in the question of discrimination in the
transportation cf products to market.
They are solid for anti discriminatior,
but will they be solid for themselves V
Then come the labor orgaii'.zvions,
which must win their batt. e now for the
legal recognition of organized labor, or
they must surrender the battle and Bud
their last state wo'se than when 'hev
begun the struggle. They wi'l poll from
two to three hundred thousand votes at
the November election, and if they shall
have any unity of action, their vote will
be decisive of the result. If they follow
their old party inclinations, they will
be henceforth an unknown factor iu the
politics of the S'ate. Thev now have
tbe first opportunity ev-r presented to
them to assert their pow-r in both the
Executive and Legislative authority of
tbe Commonwealth, and thus command
such legislation as equal justice to labor
aud capital requires.
The License or Liquor interests are
capable of potential work in the contest,
but as yet there is no positive indication
of unity of action beyond the open dec
laration that hpecial contests will be
made tor or against pwrticuiar candi
dates for the Legislature. It is probable
that both the Prohibition and the Liquor
interests will develop'much more activ
ity in the contest during the next three
weeks, and what either may do, and how
much either may accomplish will depend
largely unon the friction of the two op
posing interests. The surest, way to
give a Prohibition or Liquor fl id-lide
either way in politics, would be for
either to discover that the other had ta
ken its stand. Tne cardinal faith of
both is to oppose the faith, policy and
candidates of each o her.
There are old lime regulation politi
cians in both parties, who believe that
the party they oppose is rent to fragments
by internal feuds. Any curt-stone Re
publican leadet will grow eloquent over
the positive and hopeless smash up of
Democracy over Rndall and Wallace
and the dis'ribu. ion of the spoils ; and
any corcer Democratic prophet foretells
the ceriain bolt of tens of thousands of
Republicans fiom Beaver. In fact, the
Democrats will wrangle until about
election day, and then Wallace and
Randall and all the other disputing
leaders, with their followers, will jostle
each other in getting to the front to vote
for Black ; and Cameron and Grow and
Quav, with their followers, will be
equally enthusiastic in votiog for Bra
ver. Thera will be big breaks along the
old party lines, because of new issues
which arise both from conviction and
disappointment, but there will be no
Republican or Democratic bolts in the
battle, and Beaver and Black will turn
up ou election night with their distiuct
ive party votes solid for them, and await
the verdict of the outride factors to de
cide the battle. Iu short, there Is now
nothing clearly visible in the S;ate con
test but the proverbial glorious uncer
tainty of Amsrican elections. I'hila.

er continues favorable for the growing
of corn. The crop bas certainly not
gone backward in the last four weeks,
but the reports as to the yield couiiuue
to show that the yield iter acre wii! be
considerably below the average. The
reports of correspondents from twenty
counties in Illinois tsumate the yield by
bushels per acre, arid show a range ot
12 to 40 bushels. Io Nebiask t the low
es. estimate of aveiage is 25 bushels and
the. highest SO bushels to ibe acre. Iu
the slate of Missouri the lowest average
is 9 bushels, aud the highes. 35 bushels.
In lb. state of Kansas the lowest aver
age is 15 bushels, aud the highest 45
bushels. Iu Wisconsin ibe average, iu us
very low iu some of the couuties, with a
majority of the returns, however, indi
cating 20 to 25 bushels. In uakoia the
leiums range frjm 25 to 40 bushels. Io
Minnesota the average ranges from 20 to
40 bushels, ludiaua, Ohio aud Michigan
report the highest averages. Iu ludiaua,
reports from eighteen counties show a
general average of 38 to 40 bushels to
the acre. In Ohio ibe general aveiage
ol the counties iep,,riiug this week is
from 33 to 36 bustiels. None of the
counties report a less average ibau 25
