A Pknxsyi.vaxia crank, remark?
the Chicago Ihrald, baa made three
hundred clay idols of various gro
tesque shapes, which he worships de
Toutly every night and morning." The
general supposition is that the only idol
worshipped in Pennsylvania is protec
tion. The last Legislature was kind
enough to set apart September 2 as a
legal holiday to b known as labor diy.
This will give the protected working
man an opportunity to spend some or
his surplus earnings. The generosity
of the Republican Legislature should
cot be permitted to pass unnoticed.
Tanner boasts says the Doeton
Jlcrahl, of the amazement he is to bring
upon Congress by the extent of his calls
for money from the Treasury. S?riona
ly. did the Crand Duchy of Oerolstein
itself ever furnish such parodies of men

principles or to catch votes.

The gallows did ghastly work in
New York city last Friday morning,
but it seems as If the lesson It couveyed
had not been given quickly enough.
But a few hours before the four men
plunged through the fatal trap a young
ruffian in Brooklyn, surprised while
robbing a bouse, plunged a dagger re

had detected him.
The I'cited States, sajs the Toronto
(Canad.) Vi7. according to the latest
interpretation of the alien labor law
will allow no more clergymen of foreign
birth to accept invitations to preach to
American congregations. There was
more enllghtment amoDg the Macedon
ian heathens than there is among the
American Christians. Had there not
been Paul would haye been turned bark
when responding to the cry from Mac

countries win not follow the American
example and rtsiet the arrival of min

Tin; farmers have this year says tbe
Philadelphia Jlerord, rasised a tremend
ous wheat crop for which they will get
European prices, less the cost of trans
portation. But when they buy sugar,
lumber, clothing, salt, tools, medicines,
tinware, or any other of the thousands
of necessary things taxed in the tariff
schedules, they must pay American
prices. They sell in the cheapest mar
ket and buy in tbe dearest market. As
long as they are satisfied with this kind
of trading there is no reason wby Har
rison sbouldu't be President.

The Democratic primaries were held
on Saturday last and on Monday tbe
return judges met and couoted the
votes. As will be seen by the official
table of tbe votes polled, published on
tbts page, James C. Darby, of Cone
maugh borough, was Dominated for
Prothonotary ; Ceiestine J. Blair, of
Ebensburg, was nominated for Regis
ter and Recorder ; Francis J. O'Connor,
of Johnstown, was nominated for Dis
trict Attorney ; Raphael Hite, of Car
roil township was nominated for Di
rector of the Poor ; Peter M'Gough of
Portage township, was nominated for
Coroner and Henry Scanlan, of Carroll
town was nominated for County Sur
veyor. The ticket is a good one. corns
posed of Democrats worthy of the sup
port of every Democratic voter in the
county and having been nominated iu
accordance with the rules of tbe Demo
cratic party the entire ticket should be
voted in Xovember without being de
faced by a scratch, by every Democrat,
and triumphantly elected. We will
refer to the ticket again at some future
time.
The Campaign of Education goes
right along, lain or shine, winter or
summer. The failures of the woollen
manufacturers are causing many per
sons to think ; and out West great
meetings are being beld for tbe purpose
of dissociating Tariff Reform from pol
itics and of discussing it on merits. At
Plattaburg, Mo., on Wednesday, some
20,000 people who had met to look into
tbe question greeted with applause the
following letter addressed to tbe Chair
man of the Committee on arrange
ments :
I have received your cordial and
earnest invitation to attend a Tariff
Inform picnic at Piattsburg on the
21st instant, and I am exceedingly
pleased to learn tbat such an active and
efficient measme is to be adopted to
arouse the intelligence of the people of
your locality upon a question so vital to
their Interest aud to the good of tbe
entire country. The time is opportune
for Instruction and information npon
the sut jecl of Tariff It-form and for the
correction of misapprehension and pre
judice. The question is so deep and
basso much to do with the welfare and
happiness of the American people that
its consideration ought not to be re
strained within the limits of party sub
serviency, and it will not thus bt re
strained if it is understood.
G rover Cleveland.
The Mills bill, says the Pittsburg
J'ost, proposed to reduce the duty on
pig Iron from $o 72 per ton to 0. That
was denounced as free trade. But Gov
ernor Ames, of Massachusetts, (one o!
the largest iron manufacturers in the
Union.) elected on tbe ticket with Har
rison last November, and every Repub
lican manufacturer of iron and steel in
New England, have signed petitions to
Congress askiog that the duty on pig
iron shall tie reduced to tbe ante-war
rate of 24 per cent. that is. about $3
per ton. These Republican manufact
urers also ask tbat coal be admitted
duty free, instead of paying To cents a
ton, a rate that tbe Mills bill did not
disturb, and very foolishly in our judg
ment, as it would clearly open new
markets for the bituminous of Western
Pennsylvania in Canada, if we should
repeal the duty on coal, the Dominion
making no secret that in that case it
will repeal its duty of cents a ton.
New England is determined, not as a
question of politics but as s. necessity of
her industrial situation, to have free
cnal aud iron ore, and a marked reduc
tion in tbe duties on crude manufactur
es of iron and steel. S&e bas the votes in
Congress, with those of otter tariff re
formers, to make certain the result.
Rut tbe movement for free raw materia
al will not end with tbe success of her
demands. Free wool is of even more
importance to manufacturers aod con
sumers. The silence of tbe trust and
monopoly papers of this region as to the
extraordinary movement in New Eng
land for tariff reform is about as sig
niticant as the Yankee uprising. We
commend to them especially the state
ment of Governor Ames, that "there is
reason in all things, and when the sys
tem (protection) bas been carried as far
as it bas in this case, so tbat many in
dustries hilVM hoon mi it I. .

ETery day brings the story of some
new failure in one of the protected in
dustries. These things mean lose of
employment to workmen and a scarcity
of bread to helpless women and
children
The manufacturers who fait, and 1
many 01 those who nave not failed but
who see trouble ahead, make one uni
form report of the cause. The tariff on
raw materials is choking tbe life out of
their industries. It is driving mil:
owners into bankruptcy and turning
workmen. Into tbe streets without em
ployment. Surely in such circumstances the men
who make the laws shonld approach the
subject with a patriotic and humane de
termination to remote tbe cause of tbe
trouble, which is tbe more easily done
because the Government has no need of
tbe revenue derived from the taxes on
raw materials.
What hinders ? Is It anything but
tbe blindness of a partisanship which
has sold itself to the greed of a Pluto
cracy and pledged itself to perpetuate
the power of Trusts and combinations
by holding ihe whole existing tariff
sacred ? JV. 1'. WorUl.
Magnificent Leadership.
The late Pennsylvania Republican ,
v.ouTfDiioD was noianie chiefly Tor its
adulation of Senator luay of thai State,
who was Chairman of the Republican
National Committee dnring tbe last
campaign. When the President of the
Convention referred in hie speech"To
Chairman Quay's magnificient leader
ship," there was "long-continued ap
plause." Then followed tbe reading of
the platform, which rejoiced greatly in
the victory of 1S8S, "first, because it
was fought and won under a Pennsyl
vania platform" ; and again, more dis
tinctly and amply, it declared that
"Tbe thanks of the Republicans of the
Commonwealth are due and hereby
tendered to MattLew S. uay for the
honorable and masterful way in which
be conducted tbat campaign." What
was this "magnificent" and "honora
ble" and "masterful" leadership ? Lin
coln. Sumner.. Seward and Andrews
were iCepuolican leaders. They were
men of the highest ability who with no
ble eloquenc taught the country Repub
lican principles, wbo maintained by
resistless argument Republican policy
and by their personal character won the
enthusiastic confidence of tbe whole
party and tbe respect o? their opponents.
Mr. Qaay is totally unknown as a lead
er in any such sense of the word. His
reputation is wholly tbat of a party boss.
He it a magnificient and masterful
leader like ex Senator Djrsey and Mr.
Thomas Ptatt. or like the elder Came
ron, whom the Pennsylvania platform
eulogizes with Mr. Tanner and Mr.
Jav.
Mr. Doraey's mtgnlflclent and mas
ter leadership carried elections by
"soap," Mr. Quay's by marshaling
floaters in blocks of five. Mr. Quay 1
was Known 10 ma country be Tore the
last campaign soley by tbe strong de
nunciation of Republican journals. A
few years ago, according to the Pbila
delDhia "Press." In the case or atrnmnt.
ed bribery of members of the Lgisla-f!
tore of Pennsylvania, Mr. Quay, being
then Sscretary of the Commonwealth.
"connived at crime by setting the
criminals free in defiance of the consti
tution and the law." When be was
trying to secure a nomination as S-ate
Treasurer the ' Press" asked how this
story, told upon every Demociatic
stump, was to be met. "Mr. Quay's
nomination," it is raid, "would raise
questions and involve risks which
would imperil tbe result of the can
vass." And again, hinting at his con
nectiofj with irregularities which it
charged in tbe management of tbe
Treasury, it is said :
"What is still more Important, such
a campaign would inevitably lift the
lid from the administration of the
Treasury Itself, aod uncover Secrets be
fore which Republicans would stand
dumb."
The New York "TYne," alluding
to these things and the conduct of Mr.
Quay, slid :
"A more insolent defiance of public
sentiment has not been seen since
Tweed asked the tax payors of New
York what they were going to do about
it."
This was Mr. Quay's "magnificent"
and "honorable" and "masterful" lead
ership in his own State as estimated by
Republican journals. What was it last
year in the country ? Did it lie in his
eloquence or his argument ? Was It
the leadership of intellect or character
or personal enthusiasm f No ; it was
of another kind. The Voire bas
shown tbat Mr. Clarkson, tbe present
First Assistant Postmaster General,
who wts Vice President under Mr
Quay of the Republican National Com
mittee, bribed two of the clerks of the
Voice to furnish its mail lists to the Re.
publican committee. That Mr. Quay
was ignorant of the transaction will be
believed by those who believe that Mr.
Dorsey knew nothing of the "soap"
sent to Indiana, and Mr. Dudley noth
ing of "floaters in blacks of five," or of
"a trusted man with necessary funds in
charge" of them. Mr. Quay's leader
ship was illustrated also in the enor
mous sum of money raised by Mr. Wan
amaker and devoted ta ih flnsi avnan.

not a single person in tbe country who
is competent to have au opinion upon
tbe subject who believes tbat all this
money was legitimately ns?d by Mr.
Quay. There has never been any ac
counting of its use and there Dever will
be. Undoubtedly it went to meet Mr.
Dorsey's -soap." But however it may
have been used, Mr Quay's candidate
was elected by 'magnificent" and
"honorable" leadership of this kind.
This is tbe leader who is now the He
publican hero of Pennsylvania. His
conduct, which the Philadelphia 1'rens
and the New York Tribune have des
scribed as we have seen, is praised with
an enthusiasm of acclamation to which
there seems to have been no dissent. It
is also announced tbat he is to be urged
by Pmnsylvania as its candidate for
the Presidency. Should the movement
succeed, we may expect Mr. Dors y to
be associated with bim as Vice Presi
dent, and in the event of their election,
probably Mr. Piatt would not bo again

Whisker Kills.
How often are we yet to be told tbat
whiskey kills ? Arsenic kill ; opium kills,
and so do hundreds of other good remedies
kill ir abused instead or used. But ask the
question, "Will whiskey cure ?" "Yes I" Is
the positive reply of tbe most eminent phy
sicians or all tbe land. Disease steals into
your system like a sneak thief into your
house, and often by neglecting a bad cold,
we end our days la lingering, and wishing
ror health when, Indeed, one bottle or Pura
H'hislxy or Brandy would have cured tbe
cold. Such goods may be scarce, but they
con be round at Max Kleins, 82 Federal
street, Allegheny. His "Silyer Age" Is the
only whisky endorsed by tbe doctors. You
