Govkhxou Cami uki.l has been nomi
nated by the Democrats of Ohio for the
next Governor of that state.
Thk state has just paid out the sum of
J35,02l.,31 to the National Guard of
Pennsylvania for service rendered in
keeping peace during the coke note.
The decree for the expulsion of Jewish
artisans from St. Petersburg has been
indefinitely postponed, and the Russian

Ir is stated that Ex-President Cleve

The Prohibitionists will hold a state

While in Chicago recently Pension
Commissioner Raum said to an inter
viewer: "Affairs have been going alto
gether to slow in the pension depart
ment and I am going to hurry through
and dump ."50,000 original cases upon
the various tension agencies of the
country U-fore the year is out." Should
this program be carried out by Raum,
the New York U,rnld estimates that it !

will entail on the government an addi
tional expense of $",0,(00,000.
Is :m article taken from the Portland
Oi-f; Ionian published in another column,
we see that George W. Delamater, late
Republican candidate for Governor in
this State, whose exploits as a financier
have caused wreck and ruin to his
ncighliors and a number of people in
Crawford county who trusted in him is
occupying the pulpit on Sundays in the
Western country. The tropic of the
wild and wix ly West may not be partic
ular in their choice of preachers but they
had letter watch the collection plate
w hen Republican politicians of the Dela
mater ilk are hovering around the pul
pits. The I.oudin Time .summarizes the
harvests of the world as follows: In
Russia there is a grave deficit, the peas
antry are starving and there is small
hop of relief. In India there is con
siderable anxiety; a famine prevails over
a considerable portion of the country.
The American harvest will le good in
quality and amount, but with the fail
ure of the Indian and Russian supplies
it is of the utmost importance that the
English shall not le short. The pros
pect on the whole is good. In the chief
wheat countries Essex, Norfolk and
Suffolk the crop is alove the average,
and in other countries up to the average.
Thc harvest will le late and prices will
be high. There is therefore a good look
out for the English fanner to break the
long series of disastrous years.
The announcement that Governor
PuttLson has decided to prosecute all
those criminally connected with the loss
of the suite's money through Bardsley's
rascalities, says the Philadelphia Htnthl,
will end the feeble attacks which have
lecn made in certain directions.
Since the Bardsley exosures efforts have
becu made to make it appear that the
Democratic state administration was
partially responsible for his crimes. It
has been charged that the Governor
should have known that the Republican
State Treafctf icr had not comielIed Bards
ley to comply with the law. In fact, in
thfc effort to drag some IVmocratie offi
cials into the unsavory mess, the truth
was boldly distorted.
Now that thc Governor has announced
his intent to pursue the prosecutions
with vigor we can excct a change in
the method of attack by those who have
been assailing him. Now will come the
charge that the Governor's action is in
the interest of politics and not of justice.
For doing his duty fearlessly he will be
accusal of trying to serve his pHrty and
and advance his own x liticid prosjLlOct-.

called it "a combine." Yet in referring

Senator Qcav himself says the Har
risburg J'litriot thinks it Jikely he wilS
resign the national chairmanship next
week. ' It is probable" that he will do
so, he 6ays, '"but not certain." Well
there is nothing certain in politics. But
it really looks as if Mr. (Juay intends to
go
Mr. Quay, whrtever he may pretend,
does not leave this position voluntarily.
He goes because he must. He is scorn
ed by thc !ettcr men of his party. He
is despised by the fitter men who should
be the party leaders. He has been de
manded by them and party unity can
only le mentained by his withdrawal.
He goes out of the back door. And he
goes out liccawse he is kicked out.
No matter if Quay did elect Mr. Har
rison. No matter if John Wanamaker
did raise the money Quay corruptly ex
pended. There must be a scapegoat and
Quay having already assumed many
burdens of his own must bear the ugly
loads that belong to others. The men
who contributed to the Quay corruption
fund, the man who gleefully bore it from
Philadelphia to Washington, they all
may remain without Mushing, but the
man who spent it and won with it must
go.
When he dors go John S. Clarkson is to
succeed him. Does decency gain there
by? Is political purity added by the
change? Will honesty in puUic place
lc more respected by Clarkson than by
Quay ? To these several inquiries a
negative response must be made, unless
Clarkson reformed while alord. "
The Congress of the Republic of Vene

There arrived in Portland yesterday'a
man whose name was as prominent in
the political world last fall as the names
of McKinley, Joseph G. Cannon, and
other Republican leaders who suffered
defeat. He is G. W. Delamater, the
late Republican nominee for Governor
of Pennsylvania, who was defeated by

in the possession of Thomas L. Hicks,
one of the Bardsley Investigating Com

ning L Co., had paid to Bardsley in
their settlement with him over $1,250,
000. These checks show that from Oc
tober 10, 1810, to the 21t of May, the
day upon which Bardsley resigned, the
firm paid htm $ 1,374, 721, 7'J.
This money cannot be accounted for
as lieing represented by due bill of the
Keystone Bank, for it was received after
the lart due bill from the institution was
received by Bardsley. None of the ex

what has been done with his money.
Mr. Hicks says this fart, together with
the reKrt that the City Solicitor had nn
