The Centre Herald and Phlllpabunt
Journal are printed on the "outside'
plan. More spasms in store for those
editors whose sleep seems constantly
haunted by "outside*."
The Pittsburg Telegraph an able re
publican pap*r says this : Apropos of
tiie opinion recently expressed by Gov
ernor Hartranft that Jack Kchoe is an
innocent man, and even tiie fear tbat
political capital should be made of it,
colld not drive him to consent to Die
hanging of an innocent man, the public
has not yet forgotten thst it was the
open boast of tho Kehoe gang that their
political influence was such that they
bad no fears of the gallon s—a sentiment
expressed while Governor llartranft
was the chief executive of the State—
nor have two years effaced the memory
of the testimony taken during the Mol
lie Maguire trials of political bargains
between kjoay and Hartrauft and Jack
Kehoe, and a few other Mollies, by
which for political service, immunity
from the extreme penalty of the law
was alleged to have been promised. It
is not uninteresting to note that even
now Kehoe is believed to control di
rectly and indirectly about 15.000 rotes.
Members of the ring can afford to be
lieve such men innocent.
The legislature will adjourn in a few
days, after having been in session one
month over the usual Lime. Now what
has it done to benefit the farmer, the
mechanic and the working man ? Ab
solutely nothing at all for the toiling
and OYer-burdened tax-payer, N ear af
ter year the corporation, the speculator
and the money shaver have monoplised
legislation, and the laws passed have
have been in their interest alone, while
the working man has been overlooked
as though he had no rights which a leg
islator is bonnd to respect. This is the
simple truth. There is no class so much
in need of relief as the working clasr.
Yet look at yonr taxes and you find not
copper cut down, while wages # re
down.
If our public servants were to make a
raid upon fees and salaries among office
holders, from the highest to the lowest,
and seek to cut down the expenses of
the government so much needed, it
would go far to lessen the enormous tax
ation resting upon the fanner, mechanic
and laboring man, who has scarce an
income at all in these times, where
with to maintain bimaeif and family
and pay his taxes —taxes that are
squandered by our public servant*,
many of whom revel in luxury with the
sweat of the working man foots the
bill.
We repeat, the legislature has done
nothing to relievejtbe oppressed masses
one iota. How long will the people
stand it.
Now democrats, we have a most excel
lent state ticket in the field—with Dill
igence we can elect it.
The ten dollar fellows who sat at Uar
rifiburgull winter doing nothing adjourn
ed on 24. May we never see its like
again, ia the universal wish. The lead
ing ringßters, tickled each other with
presents on day of adjournment.
The Williamsport Bulletin, red, says
democrats "are not at all pleased with
the enthusiastic manner in which the
liarrisburg nominations are received by
the people." Well we do not see where
the enthusiasm comes in or comes from.
It does not come from Centre county,
and from other parts of the states the
information is that Hoyt's nomination
does not enthnse at all. People are tired
of Cameron's set upe, and the Harris
burg nominations were so plainly the
work of Bimon and Don that there is a
strong disposition among republicans to
let them go over board.
The only issue now before the people
is between honesty and corruption—the
government administered by pure men
or by rings. The Cameron clan on one
side with Hoyt, and Dill on the other
whose nine years in Benate prove him
to be a true representative of the peo
ple.
John A. Woodward, of Howard, is
member of the democratic state com
mittee, for this senatorial district. A
most excellent choice. Mr. Woodward
is a democrat of the purest water.
The latestjfrom Europe now js that
peace negotiations are regarded ut St.
, Petersburg as in a fair way for a satis
factory conclusion.
At the republican primary meetings
in Lancaster county the other day, the
Cameron gang was completely routed.
Po it some more.

A. If. DILL.
This gentleman, the choice of the Rk--
FoKTiis as well as of nine-tenths c-f the
democracy of Centre county, was nomi
nated last week, by the Pittsburg con
vention. for governor. The convention
did a good thing in this nomination, and
it teceives the most hearty and enthusi
astic endorsement of the democracy of
the state.
We favored the nomination of Mr.
Dill becanse we deemed him the strong
est man. because a nine years record in
the state senate leaves him with a
pure and spotless record, and because
he is emphatically a man of the people
and for the people. Although he live
in a6trongly republican district so great
is Mr Dill's popularity among the peo
ple who know him, without rcspe-t to
party, that he was thrice elected
for state senator. This is one of the
strongest testimonials for the man, and
we venture to say that the fidelity with
which he has served his constituents
and the people of the state in the sen
ate, will give him a larger vote from the
honest portion of the republicans than
any other man that cojiul have been
nominated.
Andrew H. Dill's character is unas
sailable, and his nomination has caused
consternation among the s!ang*hang:ng
portion of the republican press anil re
publican leaders. He is the friend of
the common classes, and in I nion
county where he is known, he is the
favorite of the farmer and the working
man, always having mingled with these
and ever identifying himself with their
interests. No hand was ever too crusty
from labor but Andrew H. Dill was
ready to give it a friendly grasp and
lend it sympathy and aid. Working
men, here is yonr friend, nominated
for governor; be has stood by you
in all your interests, stand by him
now and with your votes assist to ele
vate him to the poaition of governor
where be can still further guard and
more surely serve your interests.
To the people of Centre county, wc can
say tbat Mr. Dill was one of the early,
and warmest friends of the Pennsvalley
road, often coming into our county to at
tend our railroad meetingsand speak in
favor of the road. He atands to-dav yet
as one of the most earn est advocates for
its completion. This county will roll
up an increased majority for Dill—he is
well known to manV of our people, and
wherever he is known, among republi*
cans as well as among democrats, An
drew H. Dill is strong.

John Siney, oueof the "labor party"
leaders in the coal regions, was a promi
nent actor in the convention of the Na
tionals. He made several speeches, in
one of which lie said "there are. hut two
partiesin this country,the skinners and
the skinned, the robbers and robbed."
The Pottsville Standard, published
where Siney lives, and, therefore, a
competent witness, in remarking upon
the declaration, "feels, called upon to
say, for the information of the general
public, that there isn't a more perfect
specimen of a skinner in the State of
Pennsylvania than this same John
Siney." This is about the length and

tre-s tho people and destroy their sub

is ar. entire change of policy, and the de

That ftirther contraction of tho volume

Tho republican parly by its legislation

tuminous coal from ono dollar twenty-five
to seventy five ccnU por ton. and upon
iron, steel, wool, metal*, paper, g!at,
leather an I all manufactures of each of
them ten percent., struck a fata! blow at
the industries and labor of Pennsylvania
The public lands are the common pro

be sold to speculators nor granted to rail
road or other corporations, but should be
' reserved a* homestead* for actual settlers.
Our public debt should be held at home,
and tho bond* representing it ought to be of
small denominations, in which the savings

Thorough investigation into tho elector
al fraud of 187G should be made, fraud
should be exposed, truth vindicated and
criminals punished. But we oppose any
attack upon the .President's title as dan
gerous to our institutions and fruitless in
its results.
j The republican party, controlling the
legislation of tho state, hat refused to exe-
I out® many of the reforms of the new con
stitution. Among other things it hat neg
. lected and refused to compel the accept
janes of all of its provisions by thecorpor
j alions of the state ; to prevont undue and
unreasonable discrimination in charges for
i transportation for freight and passengers,
and without abntcmont of drawback to

party creates new offices and add* enor
, rnous perquisites to others, and fills them
i with favorites, whose chief duty is to man
age its political machinery. Its adminis

j more expensive with each year of its riilo.
J Legislation has been directed by republi
can lobbyists, who in turn manipulate Hnd
control the nominations of the republican
party, and its candidates are tho creation
of a Junta, whoso decrees are accepted na

THE FAMINE IN CHINA.
|
Washington, May 2fl--31iiiiMer Ssward
•end* to llie stale department accounts of
the Chinese famine up to the middle of j
last March. The distress occasioned by:
the famine last year it spreading over a
much wider area, owing to renewed:
drought. The district now affected com-;
I oses part of or the whole ofthe province*!
of Shaut , Chibli, Shantung, Shtu.si, Ha-.
Dan, Js.i linen and Kana.
A '.ua! famine is pre-ir.g upon 15,0U0,-j
COO p- pie, while fully €0,000,000 are suf-j
feriug more or lets dislresr. Tho Chinese!
journals teem with accounts of the suffer- i
ing. One of the most pitiable feature* of:
j this famine Is that there is an abuudance
,of food in the country and it i only the
• lack of transportation which causa* sol
: much misery nr,d bus of Ufa.
The crops have been good immediately
| around the stricken districts, but as foodj
i can be transported only on wagonsur pack
1 animals it cannot be taken thither in suf- \
ficient quantities to save the lives of the
people. Tho Chinese officials have dutio
all that it possible. The missionaries are
I distributing relief Mhosi tkey ruay. The
! Chinese have usually classed opium and
, missionaries at among the chief evils due
: to foreign intercourse, but the latter are
now w.r.ning favor through the practical
help they afford.
EXCELLENT SCHOOL BOOKS.
People now-a-Jav* are very much in the
habit of boasting or tbo facilities enjoyed
for acquiring an education, it it true
they are largely improved over lh<* en
joyed a few years ago; but the question
ari"-s--Are wo obtaining the boi it it pos
sible to procure for the cost? If not, ir
what do>* the deficit conilt, and bow thai!'
it bo *ali*fied ?
Thco consideration* bare occupied us
to no small extent in an examination we
have recently made of sums new and pro
gressive text book* fur common school*.
They comprise a series of arithmetics by
Prof Milne, principal of the Slate Nor
mal School at (seneteo, N. V., and a his
tory of the United States by Prof. Kid
path, of the Indiana Atbury University.
Theso books possess original feature* of so
much value that a brie! reference to them
must provo interesting to every intelligent
reader.
h\rl The Arithmetic*. These com
priie "First laMton* in Arithmetic," ana
"Practical Arithmetic." They are upon
the inductive plan—that it, they arean ex
plication of the science of number* de
duced from actual experience, a* opposed
t. hypothetical or aisumed definition*.
They come right dot* n to business princi
ple* at once, to the precficel work of buy
ing, selling. contracting, borrowing, loan
ing. and all the various ramification* of
commercial life, without interpo*mg the
ahstruie theerie* and ridiculou* puatle*
with which so many arithmetic* are lum
bered. Their analytic of the rule* which
lie at the foundation of the study is simple
and concise and will bo readily compre
hended The rule* are few and briefly ex
pres-cd, but they tell the whole story.
There ' no opportunity for muunder
standing them. They are the handsomest
and most substantially made book* ot ai
ilhmclic, as well at tho cheapest in the
tuiirkol. and wo think enough ha- been
said lo induce those interested in practical
instruction to examine them.
Strand. The History It involve* more
distinctive feature* of an attractive char
acter than any school history of tho Uni
ted States we have ever examined. The
narrativo is smooth and fascinating, the
fact* *r succinctly and iraprc*ivoiy sta
ted and the dcJuclion* are satisfactory
and impartial. In the way of maps,
charts, diagrams and illustrations there
is nothing to be desired, for they are ac
cording to tho best authorities and in ev
ery regard admirable. The map* show
the conditions of the country at important l
periods ; the chronological charts indicate
eventa in their order, and fix them in the]
mind wilh contemporaneous happenings
in other countries; that ipographical dia
gram* point out tho historical battlo-flcld*,
important ett)craont*, etc ; the illustra
tions ura portraits of those who have added
luster lo our national annals. Tho work
ha* a full index and a pronouncing vocab
ulary, a recapitulation of each chapter
and decidedly the most admirable ar
rangement of its subject mailer it is possi
ble to make. No book can inducotbo pu
pil to love tho history of hi* country if
this fails to do it.
These books arc published by Messrs.
Jonas Brothers & Co., of Philadelphia,
Cincinnati and Cniitagu.
