TrtE memory of Father Matthew, the world renowned apostle gf temperance in Ireland, is still devotedly cherished by his warm-hearted countrymen. A dispatch from Cork cays that on Sunday last five thousand members of the League of the Cross, a total abstinence society, paraded through the streets of that city to celebrate the anniversary of his birth. They were accompaeied by bands of music, and sang Irish, French and American national airs. Although the rait, was falling, twenty thousand people viewed the parade. 'Every one familiar with the history of the civil war remembers the bull-dog lighting character or General Corse, who, after his terrific flgbt with General Hood 'a rebel troops in defense of AHa toona, sent the following dispatch to General Sherman, who had started a force to rescue him from his perilous position : "I have lost a cheek-bone and an ear, but I can lick all hell vet." Last w.ek President Cleveland appoint - I the Supreme Court of the State, with ed this brave soldier and stiff Democrat slight prospect, we think, of rev.rs to the comfortable osition of postmaster i 'ps? the jndgment of the lower court. at Boston. No man ever better des rved to have his merits recognized, even tho' the act has been long delayed. Tub: great need of the State, savs the Scranton Truth, an independent INpub lican paper, is not high-sounding consti tutional amendments, but men in exec utive, legislative, judicial and other positions who will see that the existing articles are properly enforced in the letter and spirit intended by the framers of the Constitution as it stands today. The people too often permit themselves to be duped at the polls by fellows who are ready to promise to pull down the moon If need be In order to get elected to ofllce, and whose profuse promises before e!o;tion are only equaled by the shortness of memory with which they seem to b afflicted afterward. Ven are needed as candidates for important offi ces who have respect for their own promises anJ professions, and who will not stoop so low as to seek position un der false pretenses. Up to last Tuesday evening the Re publican Congressional conference of this district, which re-assembled at Somerset on Wednesday ef last week, had not succeeded in making a nomina tion. If ita members can't agree upon a candidate they had better abdicate their power and request the Republican 1 State Committee to complete the iob for i them. They have a late precedent for i adopting this course in the action of j the Republican conference In the Craw- i ford. Mercer and Butler district. Coo- j psr'a committee can dispose of the wrangle iu less than an hour, but as at j least three of the candidates have, or j ought to have, a very decided impres sion in regard to what the State com mittee would do, they will be certain to repudiate any proposition of that kind if It should be offered in the conference. TriK Democrats in the Westmoreland, Fayette and Greene district have at last arrived at the conclusion that they can 1 affotd to run two candidates for Con- ! gress, unoert 1. Kiirerty, of Pittsburg, : and ex-Lieutenant Governor John Lat- ta, of Greensburg. Both of these gen tlemen are now In the field, each claiming to be the regularly nominated candidate, Rafferty basing his claim upon the fact that fve of the nint origi nal conferrees voted for his nomination, although it was subsequently repudiated by each of the three Democratic County Committees, as well as by nearly all tbe P- umcratic papers in the district, aBd Latta resting his claim upon a unani mous nomination early last week by tbe iitw conferrees elected by each of the ' three counties. This double headed I arrangement will surely terminate la ! the defeat of both RafMty and Latta and the election f McCulIough. the j th" country of this domination of tbe Republican nominee, abhough Mr. 'K)W(:r "'f!1'1 In contrullini ar.d die Latta, when he was in Pittsburg at the j If ting Congressional nomination?, is clcse of last week, assured Cbaancey F. DOt a difficult question to answer Black that there was no doubt about I ; his election. A candidate, however, it always a poor judge of results, and Latta's wish ia doubtless father to his thought. It is a humiliating spectacle j to see a strong Democratic district thus j nnpernieu at least, if not absolutely j read magnates are guilty of conspiracy lost, through personal rlvalriea and local ! and liable to criminal prosecution.

Biack was at IJellefont? on the Wednesday previous he said iu a conversation with some of his friends: 'There are 250,000 Knights of Labor in Pennsylvania, and I will get three- fourths of them ; the arrangement has been made and Beaver's managers can't get them away from roe." Mr. Black was in Pittsburg on Saturdar ard in a dispatch to the editor of the Press pro nounced the charge to be "a Mire lie," that it contained not a syllable of truth, nor was there any pretext what ever for the falsehood." He also tele graphed to Mr. Hensl, Chairman of the Democratic State Committee, that "the story printed In the Press is a pure fabrication from the first word to the last." Chauncey F. B'.ack has never been suspected of being a f'jol, but the author of this lying ClearCeid d:f patch a -sumes that be is just that kind of man whm he charges him with boasting to a company of his friends In Bellefonte that ''arrangements had been made by which be (Black) would get the votes of three-fourths of all the Knights of Labor in the Sue." Even if s-ich an "arrangement" bad been made BUck would not be sillv enouzh t boast ahont If, and thereby array the Knights of Labor solidly auainst him. This organ ization is non political, and the candidate who is stupid enough to declaie that he has arranged with them for their votes would commit an act of political tuicide. Channcey F. Black is not engaged in any such foolhardy enterprise in the present campaign. The motion for a new trial made by the counsel of the seven Chicago Anar chisms. Spies. Parsons. Fi"lden, Schwab. Engel. Fischer and Liiecr, who were convicted in Augmt of the murder of peven police officers of that city by throwing a bomb into their midst one night early in the summer when they were about to disperse an Anarchist meeting, was overruled on yesterday week by Judge Gary, The motion for a new trial had been elaborately argned pome weeks before by the counsel for the prisoners and the District Attorney in opposition. Spies. Fischer and L'ngg occupied all of Thursday afternoon ses sion of the court in denouncing the un fair manner of their trial, defending their revolutionary notiontand inveigh ing against the present organization of society. Thev were followed on Friday by Parsons and Fielden, Pach of whom fitoke at great length and occupied the whole of the dpv. On Saturday the Jndge sentenced the seven defendants named above to he executed on the 3d of December, and Neebe. the remaining defendant, to imprisonment in the peni tentiary for fifteen years. An appeal will be taken bv the prisoner's counsel to The trial was one of the'most notable that has ever taken place in this country and was watched wPh great, interest evf-rvwhere from its beginning until its close. Ps termination is a stern notice to Anarchists in other ciHes than Chica go that if they sow the whirlwind th-y will surely reap th- storm. It is verv apparent, that Thomas V. Cooper. Chairman of the npublican S'ate Committee is badlv scared. He doesn't boast about bi? majorities in the btate as he always d'd In former cam paigns. H :s now sendinqr out letters to the Chairmen of the TtepnMican Connty Committees throughout the State, inqu'rlng into the condition of the partv in each county, the number of votes fb Prohibitionists are likelv to poll, and what proportion of them will be drawn from 'he Bopoh'ioar. party. He closes his letter with the following words : "In eonelnclnn, w ar eoing to elect onr ticket this vear, but we're not going tnbave a walk over. Don't make any mistakes on this score. Unless the several connty chairmen tslce extraordi nary steps ro wak np the people and get ont, the whole vote, our "margin will be unsatisfactorily narrow. This is onr candid opinion from the inside. The question of a majority or no majoritv. or of a large majoritv or a small majority. ,B a ater entirely for the several j Cnrjn,v chairmen to determine." This , Is sipg'ng verv small hv the official head ! of the grand o'd party in a State in which B'aine two years ago had a major ity of eighty thousand votes. The people are doing a powerful emount of thinking just now and will give express ion to their thoughts by their votes. As was universally anticipated, when the Congressional conferrees iu the Crawford, Mercer and Butler district failed after repeated efforts to make a nomination and referred the disagree ment to the Republican State Committee for final decision, that body at its meet- ing in Philadelphia on Wednesday of I last week nominated W. B. Ttoherts one of the oil millionaires of Titusville, in Crawford county. Roberts was one of the three contestants for the nomination before the Congressional conference and had been Quay's candidate at the Re publican State Convention forCongress-man-at-large, but was defeated by Osborne, the present member. Q lay wanted him nominated at the State Convention In order to bleed him freely during the present campaign, nis nomination by the State Committee will enable Quay and Cooper to demand and receive from him a most liberal dona tion. The selection of Roberts by the Committee affords another instructive illustration of the potent influence of money in political affairs. What will be the outcome to the best iuteres'.s of Govervor Tattisox, Bays ihe run burg Dispatch., is still laboring under the conviction that th State ConPtitution means something and it is infiniaed that he thinks it may mean that certain rail- Black at Pittibnrg. virtuous citizen. Thus do we know you. An immense Democratic meeting as and to vou, as such, we pledge our indi held at Pit tsburg on last Saturday rvtu- vidua! support. ing, which was addressed by Cnauneey F. Black and other shakers. Among other things Mr. Black sid : Gen. Beaver does not want to discuss this canvass upon our Sta'e issues. I do not think that a Federal O ngress wou'd send Gen. Beaver a tariff bill to sign if h were elected. Fortunately, we have a good, cool, clear-headed Democrat down in Washington who will do all the signing. I am iiot eoing to follow Gen. Beaver into his tariff question: I stand here to night to rebuke the party which Gen. Baver. represents for its attempt to draw the attention of our people from our State qnstionF. from the HfUirs of a Stnte that is preatsr than the British Empire under Queen Elizabeth, a S'ate able to ponr out armies whose very tread would shake the earth. Think of the vast interests; think of the fireside rights for which the State roust care and tell me ne ,f we have net enough ,t. r very best thought and I injel- en gag" ou ligencp. Why do they attempt to evade the question at issue in the great, btate of Pennsylvania? Simply because they ' cat. not and dare not fac us. j There are two main issues before us ' in he canvass. First, the enforcement j of the State Constitution ; second, the j necessities and the rights of labor. In i speaking of the grievances you had or ' fancied you had, you were told ta call ; around and talk it. over with the capital ist, and they would try and adjust matters. I come to you to-night with a different story altogether, and I want to make no secret of it. I have put it down in black and white in my letter or acceptance, so that every roan In the State may call me down if I fail hreaf- ter. f Applause. I Neither Gen. Beaver. myself nor any other man in this great Stale can tell, without studying the question, exactly what labor wants. You don't know precisely yourselves. I mean the specific measures of legislation cal culated to give the speediest relief. But (here is one grand thing you do want. 1 ou want a friendly legislature and a friendly Governor. A voice that 's so. J insieaa or telling you. as uen. liaver told you, to call around and let the cap italists talk tbe matter over with you, I tell you to uight to take care of your selves. Maintain your organizations. Put at the head of them your most intel ligent men. If you can't, find them in your own ranks, hire them, as the great, railroads and corporations do whenever they want to carry their point. Go up to the polls and vote for your own inter ests and your own friends. You don't need to be afraid that your emp'oyers will discharge you for doing so. There is no excuse in Pennsylvania for violence. You have been robbed, you have been plundered and grossly abused, and it is your own fault, because vou didn't use the power you possessed. A voice You bet you are right. 1 aak you to read my letter of acceptance, and then read that of General Beaver. If you think that the man who is presented to yon by the bosses, and as the representative of the corporations, is the best man for your interest, then vote for him. On the other hand, if you think that men who were elected on the retorm ticket of 1S82, and who have been part and parcel of that administration, and who ! have tried to wrest from the corporations j some of their stolen privileges, then vote the Democratic ticket. If the Demo- j cratic party polls its full vote, with the j assistance of the non-partisan vote, we j will be successful as certain as the sun ' will shine to-morrow. Let, every Dm- I ocrat go to the polls and do his duty and there will be no chance for a failure 10 1 elect the ticket. There are no d frVrn- ' Cf-s in the Democratic party. We may 1 have our own little party quarrels, but ; we always adjust them before election day. Let it be so now, and we will go on triumphantly to victory. ' Thre is one word I wish to say before ; closing, I found as I came into your city a copy of ar organ published litre. ! I wish to say that that organ is sadly given to lying. They published a story that, was manufactured in their office here, for there is not in Clearfield county i a man who would dare to publish or write a lie like this. It says that 1 sta ted in a speech Hint I had made arrange nients with the Knights of Lhor. and ' tht I was to receive the support of the Knights of Libor. I have on'.v to say that never before to-night in a public i speech have I made use of the phrase "the Knights of Ltor," except on one j occasion when, by special request, I nd ! drexsed an assembly of Knights ot Labor ! in my native town. I know full well j that, the Knights of Labor is a non- j political organization, and the wise men I who are at the head of it would reser.t i such an imputation as that they would degrade it by dragging it inio partisan politics. The published story is a false hood, or in the language used up in the mountains where I was born, it is a bald-headed lie out of the whole cloth. I thank you for your kind attention. A Surprise to Mr. Black. Pittsbtjro. Oct. 10. During yester- I day afternoon a number of Irish-Amer- , r,,.. -, ., ican Blameites, among them Oaniel : Kelly, Ph'lip Brady and Joseph Flynn, j of Allegheny, and John M'Dermott and James Casey, of Pittsburg, called on Hon. Chauncey F. B'ack at the Cent.al Hotel, The five gentlemen composed a ,' committer, and Daniel Kelly read the ! j following address : j j From an attitude of listless ind'ffer- I ence and lethargy which we would fain 1 keen undisturbed until the great contest 1 of 1888, we are aroused by every tie that I ! binds the hearts of onr Irish-American j countrymen to enter once more into the 1 I field of political action.

When that cause was in its travail and the malignant slanderers of our people flooded the country with lying misrepresentations, it was at such a time that the glorious eloquence of your illustrious father burnt a torch in defence of our suffering nationality and crushed into silence the enemies of our rac.

I know I am cot ?ntitled by leason of descent to the eulogies yon have uttered. However, ray heart has always cherished the strongest affection and sympathy for the Irish people, and I feel with many that. thir troub'es and sufferings should be ended.

The convention of county commission ers, which was in session at narrisburg during last week, expressed itself upon various topics in which all the taxpay- l era of the S'ate are Interested The j committee on uniformity of practice j under existing laws submitted a report ' whioh, though some portions of it met I with considerable opposition, wis adopt ; ed, as follows : j 1. That carriages used for business ' purposes shontd not be assessed as pleas t nre carriages. j 2. Thai under the revenue act of lflSo. ! relative to personal property, that the blanks for taxaMes to furnish state ments be served on every male citizen over the age of 21 years, and everv fe ; male whom they have reason to believe ; is the owner of such property taxable. ! 3 That the present system of taxing i occupations in manv counties is unjust 1 and inadequate and that the commis ' sinners of the several counties should i endeavor to remedy the same as far as j ls in their power. j 3. That a uniform demand should be ! male on the commonwealth in the set tlement of State taxes for the following credits I. The abatement of 5 per cent, al lowed for prompt, payment within sixfy davs, as required by the act of I880. II. The collection fee as required by said act. III. All extra expense which was in curred by the counties in assessment and collection of the same. V. That no assessor should receive pay for attending the polls on election dav as assessor. VI. That the attention of the com missioners of the several counties be called to a more rigid enforcement of the forestry laws, especially to that por tion of the same as refers to the protec tion of forests, acts of 1S60, 1869 1370 and 1870. The committee on legislation pre pared a bill to be presented to the next legislature, the substance of which is contained in the following recommen dations : 1. A law for the election of an asses sor for ?hi-ee years aod two assistants for one year in each voting district, vo ters to vote for but onn assistant as sessor. 2. Abolishing the office of jury com missioner, the coramisMouers, judge and sheriff to do the w.ofc. 3. That after 18(5 half of the tax collected on money Ht interest, mort gages, etc., to be retained for county purposes. 4. R-pealing ihe bounty scalp act. 5. Commissioners to py g fees and mileage of witness in behalf of the commonwealth where th-re is a convic tion or a plea of guilty entered aud in casns where a forfeited recognizance is Collnpted. f. Fixing mileage at six cents per mile circular. 7. It quiring assessors to revise the transcripts of the next preceding assessment, ys transmitted to them by the ciiy or county commissioners in April, instead of in June. 3. Fixing commissioners' pay at $3.50 per day and six cents per mile mi'eage. 9. Compelling turnpike companies to repair bridges. 10. That after April 1, 1833, all prop erty, both real and personal, shall t taxable at the price or value it would sell at a lona fide sale. The committee on revision of taxea i found the master too vast for settlement j in the brief and hurried consu'tatioo of n itirr mr-rTLMjic suumi ilea me following very modest rer.ort. Your committee to whom was referred LrT,1 7 ,k thl U La V re8P"clful'y report that they have had submitted to them bv members of the ron.Hr.i i. .. J noerous resolutions suggesting marked ' cntriges in our lax laws many of which ' were considered pertinent, and wh-ch met with the approval of the committet. i The committee, however, after full ' debate and miturn deliberation, are I fully convinced that so vast a subject, 1 and a question requiriug so much enre- ; ful consideration as the revision of our i tax laws, cannot be properly treated in 1 the limi'ed time allowed by this cou veu- j tion. That, to attempt a revision under j the circumstances would be but to pro- ! voke a lengthy debate and to but little purpose, Bnd nt best would e but j an incomplete undertaking. The committee are furtLer of the I opinion that one of the great evils of out present tax system is that it has been tinkered loo much, and that there should be a complete revision and a ymmetrical system adopted. Tbe committee, therefore, unite in recommending that a committee be ap pointed by this convention, whose duty it shall be, after ascertaining from the different boards of commissioners throughout the State their views in wri ting uoon existing evils under o-jr tax laws, to present in proper form to bis excellency, the governor, the grievances enumerated, with the request that a competent commissior be appointed to revise the tax system of our common wealth. Your committee further recommend that thw importance or the commission referred to be urged upon all candidates for the legislature throughout the State. Cornelius Bixler, Danpbin : Samuel M. Meyers.
