EDENSBURC. PA.. FRIDAY, - - APRIL YX 1SS0. "What Pennsylvania need ia an anti discrimination bill that will prevent ita lawmakers from visiting another State to Lava a pood lime at the expense Of the taxpayers. President Harrison thinks of spending the next two months at the Soldiers' Home, near Washington, with Lis family. There Is alao talk of his boy In if a country house. A riLL is before the Legislature to provide footwalks six feet wide along the roads ana highways. The supers Iaora or other authorities arc instruct' ed to arrange for the same. On Monday last, at New York, John I Suli van's backers met the represen tatives of Jake Kilrain and the final de posit in the slakes of ?2J,0uO for which they are to fight, was made. It is said that a Japanese line of steamers will shortly be run on the Pa cific coast, in opposition to the l'aciflc Hall Steamship Company, and that the agents appointed to make arrangements with the various Republics are already In possession of several concessions. Govkknou EEAvtu on Wednesday, Issued a proclamation declaring April 30 a legal holiday and a day of thanks giving and praise for a century of con atitutlonal government. Ageneral ces sation of business is suggested in order that tfce people may have an opportuni ty for divine worship. TriE Rochester (X. Y.) Hi raid says : "When the chief official of sixty mil lions of people passes directly from the Excutive Mansion to a private law of fice, and begins to work for his living again within two days from the time of bis surrendering his immense power, the dignity ef labor in this country re ceives a striking illustration' The steamship Denmark was sighted by the City of Chester on the Slh, Inst., In mldocean In a sinking condition. The Teasel had been abandoned by the crew and passengers numbering about seven hundred people and it is supposed that they have been picked up by some passing vessal. but up to this time no news of their rescuo has been received. RErri'LicA.N rule is getting to be synonymous with minority rule. That party has the Tresident, though the Pcmocrats got nearly 1UO.0UO more of the popular vote. It has the Governor In Connecticut, though the Democratic candidate polled 1,100 more votes. It has now secured all the State oOicers, save one, in Rhode Island, though the Democrats polled 4.30U moro vores than the Republicans, .And it now holds the Legislature in New York, a State which has gone pemocratlc teveu tiiru-g la eacccsslou. "I am amused, " said ex-Senator Thurman to a Washington Pest report er, "at the Republicans who are finding fault with the Tiesident for cot turn ing all the Democrats out In the six weeks he has beeu lu office. That io the same way some Democrats talked about President Cleveland. That bn;eches maker from Philadelphia, Wanamaker, seems to be running the guillotine on full time. I am told he is a pious cuss, rietv is a good thing to have In an Ad ministration, I suppose, but lam afraid I am drifting into po'itics." Bt an order of President Cleveland the employes of the railway mail ser vice were placed under the Civil Ser vice were placed under the Civil Ser Tice law to take effect March 15. President Harrison at the request of the Civil Service commission, modified the originial order extending the time to May 1. That date, it is now under stood; will remain as fixed, after which no one who desires a position in the railway service can be appointed with out first having passed the examination prescribed by the Commission. ' The Chicago Jiaihcay Ajt prints a table of railways under construction and projected in the United Spates in the first three months of 1SS0, showing that 14.S0O miles of new road are either let to contractors or In rrocess of com pletion, and that, altogether, 53,100 miles of railway are projected. It is do wonder that the Railway Aje calls this a surprising exhibit. It Is work cut out for ten years to come. The num ber of projected lines In Pennsylvania Is set down at 35, with 1313 miles of of track, of which 135 miles are under construction or contract. AccORDixa to a decision just given by Judge Traver3, of Iowa, says the New York Sun, under the anti liquor law of the State, cider cannot be pub licly aold there ; for, as the Judge ar gues, "though it is at f.rst a non-intoxicant, it produces Intoxication when taken in large quantities." "Whether makers of a;pie ciJer will be allowed to continue their business under the law Lbs not yet been decided, but ic may be inferred that their mills are illegal es tabllshments. As yet, lemonade may be lawfully quaffed ia the State of Iowa. History records that when the British man of war Glorice was about to sink oft the Cape of Good Hope the ship's band stood on deck and played 'God Sive the KDg." It may be that Admiral Kimberly remembered this when he ordered the band of the Tren ton to play the -Star-Spangled Dinner as the gallant flagship was fighting vain ly against wind and waves In the harbor of Apia. But whatever may have been bis incentive Admiral Klml-erly showed himself a hero and a patriot by this ro mantic deed. So long as the glory cf the fljg is intrusted to such men as Kimbrlv and his sailors America neep cot worry about her fame on the salt seas. Tue recent reduction of wajes s 3 the New York Tint's in the mills of the Clark Thread Company near Newark and the strike caused by it recall some incidents of the Presidential cams pafgn. The manufacturers of spool cotton thread are protected by a tariff dnty of It cents per dozen spools of 200 yards each, which was equivalent in the last fiscal year to an ad valorem duty of 57 per cent. It was proposed in the Mills bill that the duty should be reduced to 40 per cent. Although by their own admission the manufacturers bad been in combination for some years so far as prices were concerned, and and had thus sought by preventing com petition in prices to take all possible advantage of a high rate of duty, this rate remained unchanged In the Allison bill. Senator Sherman had declared that such combinations "may and ought to be met by a reduction of duty," but he conveniently forgot this when the bill was prepared iu his committee. About two weeks before the election the thread manufacturers professed to be greatly alarmed by the proposed change of rate in the Mills bill, al though Congress had adjourned and everybody knew that the bill had not become a law and could not become one so long as the Ssnate should be controll ed by the Republican party. On Octo ber M there was posted in the factories of the Clark Thread Company at Ne wark a notice that until further orders the mills would be closed all day on Saturdays and after 4 o'clock on all other working daya of the week. It is said by the owners that this action bad been caused by the Mills bill, although it was not explained in what way the bill could have had this effect. It was also said that similar actios bad been taken in the other thread factories that bad been governed by "an understand ing as to prices." There was no indication that the con sumption of thread had suddenly fallen off, and an Impression prevailed among the employees that the reduction of time had been made for political effect. The Chairman of the Democratic Com mittee of Essex county asserted that some of the employees had been threat ened with loss of work if they should vote the Democratic ticket. There ap pears to have baen a desire that the workmen should believe that they would suffer loss of wages if the party favoring a reduction of war tariff du ties should win. The party was defeated and the party that made and supported the Allison bill was successful, but this ha3 not pre vailed a reduction of wages. It does not appear that a reduction Is required by the condition of the business. In deed, tb.6 company admits that it makes the reduction simply because the work men affected hy it have been receiving better wages than are paid to other workmen of the same grade in another city. The tariff has not been changed, the combination by which a high price for thread has been maintained has not been broken, but the manufacturers who were so solicitous for the welfare of the work'.ngmen when their votes were soon to be cast for or against the high duties that afford ehelter for com binations have not teen restraintd from catting down their wages. It must be obvious says the Tittsborg Time, to intelligent observers that in certa5n respects the IpuUlic bas out grown the capacity of the original ma chinery of the Government. For ex ample, take the present mode of Cling the offices. Every time there is a chaiige in the party complexion of the aominTstratlon a great and harassing burden Is thrown upon the President. As the population has increased the burden has also increasead until It has become an intolerable one. The fl!llng of the ofSces under any circum stances is a work the magnitude of which was not contemplated by the framers of the Republic. They did cot preceive the possibility of its growth, nor comprehend the immensity of the pat rone ge that would be dispensed. No adequate provision was made for dispensing It, consequently the pres sure on the President aud the Execu tive Departments has become so great that how to relieve it Is a practical question to-day. The election of Post masters by the people is proposed as a measure of relief. If l'ostmastcrs, why not United States Marshals, District Attorneys and other officers now appointed by the President? To this there are objec tions, some of which are not so easily anwered. If filling these offices by public choice is decided against, the question is none the less pressing. Would not a Commission appointed by the President and charged with the duty of filling all the offices, or different Commissions, among which the offices shall be divided, be an improvement on the present plan? This or some other way of relieving the President is be coming a necessity, if it ia not so al ready. Not to refer to the magnitude of the power which the patronage places in the hands of the Executive, the labor of hearing and deciding on the claims of applicants for the offices Is not com patable with the dignity and the other duties of the bead of the government. It lowers the Presidential office ; it has degenerated into an s-vil of enormous magnitude. To provile a remedy is work for statesmen. Advices from Vienna state that the Empress of Austria baa been attacked by the Wittelsbach family malady, namely. Insanity. She suffers from long spells of melancholic and enter tains delusions, accumng herst-!f of the death of Crowu Prince Rudolph. She is possessed with idasof suicide, think" ing to laave the Emperor free to re marry. Sometimes she dandles a cushion or a pillow, thinking it a newborn-heir to the throne. The Emperor is greatly affct?d. He suffers from insomnia and has no zest for work, !ak ing only a languid Interest In Slate affairs. TnK Secretary of War Las ordered the live batteries of artillery stationed at Fort Mellenry, in Baltimore, to pro ceed to New York and participate in the Centennial celebration there oa the 30 instant. The Inauguration Centennial iu New lork The 30th of April, 17S0, will remain memorable as the initial date of the American Union ; for on that day ail the wheels of the new machinery of goverment began to turn with the ins auguratiou in New York of George "Washington as President. It is the cen tenary of that event which will then be celebrated in the metropolis, and the en thusiasm which is being manifested over the prospective occasion, together with the extensive character of the preparations, indicate that it will be a noteworthy episode in tbe history of the Republic. On Sapteciber 17. 17S7, the day on which the new Constitution was agreed to and signed, the Philadelphia Conven tion sent a letter to the President of Congress, in which he pointed out that it was obviously impracticable to secure all rights of independent sovereignty to each State and yet provide for the safe ty and interest of aM ; "and thus the Constitution which we now present is tbe result of a spirit of amity, and of that mutual deference and concession which the peculiarity of our political situation rendered indispensable." This Constitution, which was thus intended to promote the lasting welfare of the of the country, and secure to It peace and happiness, went into effect in 17? 9. On tbe first Wednesday of that year electors were appointed in the various States, who voted for a President on the first Wednesday in February ; Con gress assembled on March 4 ; on April G the electoral votes were counted in the presence of bth Houses, and on April 30 President Washington was in augurated. The official programme of tbe coming centennial celebration has Involved iu its preparation a vast amount of labor. So many interests bad to be considered, and so many applications for a share in the commemoration poured in from all parts of the country, that the task of the committee was rendered extremely difficult. Naturally the committee has not escaped criticism ; and yet it would seem as if its members had succeeded in providing for a most Imposing display. A naval and merchant marine parade ; a parade of military organizations from nearly every State In tbe Union ; an in dustrial and civic parade ; open-air concerts, orations, banquets and recep tions, and the presence of the President of the United States, make up a pro gramme that will fitly represent the marvelous growth and resources of tbe con try and illustrate the patriotism of the people. To provide for an influx of strangers such as may naturally be looked for will be no light task ; but Philadelphia ac complished it when tbe centennials of the Declaration of independence and of the adoption of the Constitution were commemorated, and tbe citizens of New York will doubtless show a spirit ot self-sacrifice and try to convey an impression of generosity and hospitali ty. Tbe railroad companies throughout tbe country have extended the time of excursion tickets for visitors from May S to May C. which will give the latter five days after the close of the celebra tion itself for the transaction of busi ness or for pleasure. Doubtless many people from this State will be among the visitors. It is worthy of note as a matter of historv that, although New York rati fied the Constitution and entered into the new Union, Ehe did not choose electors for the first President. But Pennsylvania did, and she also contri buted able men to the Cret Congress. Anion? them were George Clymer, Thoma3 Fitzsimmons, and Peter and Frederick A. Muhlenbuig, the last Darned the first Speaker ot the House, while Robert Morris sat in the Senate. It is fitting, therefore, that this Com monwealth, having been the Bcene of two national commemorations, should take part in an event which was the culmination of a long strujrjle and the carrying into effect of a fundamental law which has been declared to be "the most wonderful work ever struck off at a given time for the brain and purpose of man." J'u'ta. Record. Ciyil SerTlce and Party Prescription. The new Secretary of the Interior Mr. Noble, of Missouri has been ex tensively quoted as having said in a re cent interview that wherever be Qnds "an inefficient Democrat" he will dis pute that it is tbe right as well as the duty of every Administration to re move all Inefficient officials, whether they be Democrats or Republicans. But when the Secretary says he will fill the places of incompetent Demo crats solely with efficient Republicans, this is neither "commou sense" nor in accordance with the law. The Civil Service law, which it is Scretary No ble's sworn duty to enforce, knows neither Democrats nor Republican io filling a large proportion of the offices in his department. He may remove whomsoever he pleases upon the charge of Incompetency ; but he will violate the law whenever he shall fill the va cancy thus ereated on party grounds. Tbe law distinctly forbids him from making any political discrimination among those who have passed Vte civil service examination and hold certifi cates of fitness. But doubtless Secretary Noble re ferred to those officials ot the Interior Department who are not within tbe Civil Service law. In that case his quoted remark was wholly irrelevant, since there is no question of efficiency or inefficiency io removing Democrats from the higher positions in the Interior Department which the civil service rules do not cover. In making remov als from these positions and filling them with "efficient Republicans" the only rule that the Secretary has yet recognized ia that- "to tbe victors be long the spoils." Why then, does he seek to soften tbe brutality of the spoils policy with a meaningless com monplace 1Phila. Record. The overhead wires and tbe poles which have converted many of tbe chief streets of New York Into a forest, danserous to hu man life and contributing to the destruction of property, began to disappear on Tuesday, not because the proprietors thereof were willing to obey lha law, but because Mayor Grant sent a force of men to work to sever the wires and cut down the Doles. The appearance of these obstructions will be a boonlto ew l ork, and It is probable that the same course will be adopted la other cities, thouch when the telephone and other companies find It dangerous to defy public sentiment they will doubtless voluntarily arrange to put their wires under ground. In every city of considerable 6iza the law should prevent the erection of poles and the stringing cf wires. New York has done well In moving for their abolition and her mayor Is to be congratulated upon his dis rlay of pluck. A Krrtp of Papfr Stm II er Lire.

The white Republicans of Alabama in organizirg a white man's Re pub'ican party bav very distinctly stated the room of the colored brother is better than his company that no negroes need apply for admission to the select corps either as officers or high privates. This goes a little further than ever before at tempted by a political party North or South. The veriest bourbons that ever camped on the coat tails of progress have been more than willing to get the votes of the colored people, but thece white Republicans organize with the main purpose of excluding the negroes from any participation in politics. It is said President Harrison is in sym pathy with the movement, and will deal out the provender In order to make It a success. At the Rirmingham meet ing, on Wednesday of last week, a dele gate who said he would not desert tbe negro wa" fired out of the meeting In short order. The negroes and "po' whites" are worked up over these aris tocratic oidos. and have also held a meeting at Birmingham, drafted red hot resolutions and appointed a com mittee to carry them to Mr. Harrison. "Let's ostracise the white Republicans and go back on the party," was tbe s!o- gan of some of the prominent negro orators. The Alabama Incident simpTy illus trates a feeling that largely prevails in this country among the ruling race, no matter whether they call themselves Republicans or Democrats, or live North or South. This is a white man's gov ernment and will be so maintained, not to the oppression or wrong of the color ed race but to their manifest advantage. The white Republicans of the South who are not engaged In operating the negro vote for selfish purposes are as fully committed to this policy as their Democratic neighbors. The Pittsburgh Gazette feigns a weak disapproval of the Birmingham movement, but tbe fact is Incontrovertable its party has excluded tbe negroes from all positions of honor or profit in this State. They are merely regarded as so many head of "voting cattle." Northern Republicans apply the Birmingham idea, but sugarcoat it with cant and bnmbug to keep the "voting cattle" straight in line. The Gazette says : ' Shutting out the color ed voters is simply catering to a pre judice that will do tbe Republican party more barm than good." Well, the Gazette and Its party in this city, county and State have been doing nothing else since tbe negro was enfranchised. They "cater to the prejudice" by ab sorbing "de perwislons." The Philadelphia Rulletin. very radi cal Republican, admits the Birmingham movement is dead against the "ekal rights" blather and humbug of ita par ty, but comforts the negro with the hope it may result in bis benefit by a division of the whole vote nothing Is said about a division of tbe colored vote, which is in fact tbe key of the situation. The Bulletin says : "The promoters of the new anti-negro Re publican party of Alabama it must be said perhaps unconsciously have begun a most auspicious movement looking toward the solution of the vexed South ern pioblem." The problem will never be solved by holding the colored vote solid and dividing the white vote. The whites are not likelv to be divided by that transparent device. They have learned the lesson of unity io tta school of necessity. Pittsburg Post. The High .Moral Ideas. The Party of High Moral Ideas has indirectly found itself in a peculiar po sition by the -death of Justice Stanley Matthews of the Supreme Court. No successor to this gentleman has yet put in an appearance, though two men stand forth so pie-eminent for high character and attainments that there should be but little trouble in selecting one or the other ot them for this impor taot post. We refer to Walter (. Gresh am, Circuit Judge of the United States for the Seventh Circuit (Indiana), an able and upright man, and Judge Thomas M. Cooley, Chairman of the Interstate Commerce Commission. ex Chief Justice of tbeS'ate of Michigan and one of the ablest lawyers that America has ever produced. But alas! Judge Gresham was not a B aine man. Judge Cooley voted for Cleveland in lSbi. Both these men are too conscientious, we greatly fear, to get to the Supreme Bench under this Administration. The man whose soul revolted against the endless dishonest ies of the Gentlemen from Maine can certainly not expect too much from an Administration whose Premier is this same Greatest Living Statesman. There would be something particu larly appropriate in the appointment of either of these men to the Supreme Bench. Judge Gresham, whilst an able and strong man, had encountered no enmities previous to the late campaign except on the part of Mr. Blaine. Ilia prominence aa a candidate for the Re publican nomination for the Presidency was a tribute to the moral and intellect ual worth of the mau himself. It is said that this factbaa arrayed the Presi dent himself against Gresham. though it is but justice to say that auch petti ness should not be charged asralnst General Harrison without due and convincing proor. As to Judge Cooley. this paper has frequently spo ken. It is suegested his appointment to the vacancy caused by the death of tbe late Chief Justice Waite, although approving President Cleveland's choice of the present incumbent. Melville Weston Fuller. In America to-day there is probably no better equipped man for the Supreme Bench than Judge Cooley. In either case, however, wheth er tbe President should see fit to ap point either Gresham or Cooley, be would serve the country well and show a spirit which would go a great way towards establishing bis own reputation on broad and solid foundations.
