From all the signs of the times it looks
to nsas though the rads intended to put
Grant in the race for president in 1330.
The fellows who rein the machine teem
to have a hankering for Vltrneea. lhat
he will be the choice of all tho nngsters
and roosters in the radical fold, there i*
not a bit of doubt. That kind of cattle
flourished and got fat under Grant's ad
ministration, who gaye full license to
steal and plunder and when any of his
pets cot into jail for it, he was only too
ready with a pardon. The administra
tion of Grant will eyer be known as the
most corrupt we ever had, and his re
turn to the white house would be a
repetition of the bad dee-Is of which
his administration was so fruitfttl.
The Greenback paper, the Herald, in
its last issue before the election tried to
be as ugly as possible. That was entire
ly wrong, for a new-comer, neighbor,
whv didn't you try and keep decent
pattern after the Reporter and keep
your columns free from abusive stuff.
Vilification never makes votes. Tour
low abuse of Cnrtin did not hurt him at

The directors and officials of the sus
pended Rank of Glasgow, nine in num
ber, have been committed to jail to await
trial. All efforts to obtain their release
on bail failed. The general impression
is that they will be sentenced to long
terms of imprisonment.
This Tank of Glasgow ia the institu
tion that failed recently with 50 million
liabilities. If a smash op like that doe#
not result in a "pen-up" for a long term,
of all parties at fiinlt, then there is no
use at all for statutes against roguee.
There are too few officers and directors of
broken banks made to aniff the atmos
phere of prison cells—if long terms of
imprisonment were to follow in all such
events there would be a stop to these
failures.
Hayes has been oat attending the
county and atato fairs. He is a new en
try. as frauds were never on exhibition

white-house fraud. And why not? it'a
the first the country baa had.
Those men who in the bust few weeks
lowered themselvea in this county to
traduce GOT. Curtin, now that the elec
tion is over, can think over their work,
and feel ashamed. There i no man in
the county but always found GOT. Cur
tin manly, open hearted, sociable and
charitable—always ready and willing to
serve the interests of our county or be
friend any of its citizens without regard
to party. The few who in the late cam
paign hounded the ex-governor, of whom
old Centre was always proud, have only
disgraced themselves and made for him
firmer friends of the masses who have
known him long and well. As Gov.
Curtiu needs no eulogy at home, so do
the basest slanders against him fall
harmlessly and rebound to plague their
inventors.
As governor of this commonwealth be
ing then a republican, his administra
tion more than met the beat expecta
tions ofall fair-mindad democrats. As a
citizen of our county there is nothing in
his whole life that ia not conaistent with
the welfare and prosperity of our peov
pie.
The Allegheny county republican
managers, in order to keep their cause
from sinking, imported a large number
of paupers from Ohio and voted tbem at
the polls. Tax receipts and registration
were prepared before hand for the busi
ness. If it were not for snch and simi
lar practices of the radical leaders dar
ing the last ten years, the radical party
would have passed off the stage long
ago. Nothing else has kept it alive in
Pennsylvania but false registration and
repeaters in the cities of Pittsburg and
Philadelphia.
From Union City,Teno.,l inat,comes
the following further intelligence ofth?
train of cars that was taken possession
of one day last week by 100 tramps and
run to suit themselves; The hundred
tramps who captured Conductor Rig
gin's train pursued their way nearly to
Fulton, Ky. News had been telegraph
ed along the road, and the people of
Fulton, armed with shotguns, proceeded
down to meet the train. The trampe
were met a mile from town, and would
not surrender until threatened with a
volley. They were ordered to leave the
train, which they did sullenly, and
struck out on foot on the track. The
people between tbia point and Memphis
have quarantined against the vagabonds
and threatened to shoot them if tbey
Biop. They claim to be from Cairo and
Bouthern Illinois, and that they came
South after work. Tho seizure of the
train has exasperated the people, who
"believe their object is plunder.

The Times says, It would seem that
Centre county must have the largest
crop of brass bands to the acre of any
part of Pennsylvania. Both parties have
held what they report as overwhelming
demonstrations there, and a meeting
that doesn't exhibit eight brass hands
isn't considered worth talking about;
but the Democrats exhibited fair exs
Governors with their music, and they
are decidedly ahead In honors, with
tricks to be counted.

What 1 most especially desire is that the
rereii'ts will at least equal the expenses
attending the sale. I'ha 4ft of assembly

Jo the ScheJ. Dirrdort of Centre county: j
GEvrLtMK*.—Pubiie sentiment seeming
to favor county uniformity of text-books,
I have concluded to call a meeting of
directors or delegates from each board
of directors of the county during Insti
tute week to take action upon this and
other questions which may be of inter
est to the schools of our county. It is
recommended that directors thoroughly
discuss this Shbject at their maaringa
and make arrangements to be repre-1
seated at the convention. County In
stitute will open on Tuesday, December
24th, and it is thought that Thursday,
December 26tb, following would be the
most suitable for Directors' day.
Among the advantages claimed Co#
uniformity of books in the county the
following seem to be the most impor
l*nt; . * .
Books could be procured at much
lower rates than under the present sys
tem.
At present nearly every district nM a
series of books different "from that o( ah
ihe other districts, and a family's mov
ing across the line of a borough or town 1 -
ship necessitates the expense of a new
outlit of books—a heavy burden. And
ibis burden falls generally on that class
who are least able to support it. Thi#
fact, and the high price of books, are, in'
A great measure, the cause of non-attend
ance and imperfect classification; for
for many families are unable to pur
chase the necessary books, hence their
children stav at home or come with but
half the number of books needed.
The following topics are, also.suggest
ed for the consideration of the directors
when assembled in convention:
Mode of selecting Teachers', Basis for
grading Teachers' salaries, Improve

MORROCCO.
Fearful Ravage® of The Cholera—A
Famine Impending.
Washington, October 31. —The United
States Consul at Tangier transmitted a
dispatch to the State Department giving
an account of the fearful ravages of the
cholera in the interior of Morrocco. The
misery among the people is great. Busi
new is almost completely paralyzed.
Cholera is sweeping over the middle and
.Southern provinces. Hundreds are .ly
ing of starvation. To all these miseries
small pox and malignant levers add
their horrors. vcr,before has Morroc
co passed through emdi a fearful ordeal, ■
All the leading Israelite# and many j
Kuropeans have fled frost Tangier
panic-stricken, while, wild and iiuzwr
tain rumors of ravages of the pestilence
in the interior which are brought daily
to Tangier by the refugees add to the
general consternation. While immense
number of nersons are starving in the
very streets of Tangier, and while mer
chants are selling all breadstuff's at cost,
the authorities still persist in laying a
tariff of ten per cent, on all provisions.
Add to all these fearful visitations the
! further fact that neighboring countries
' have almost completely cut off Morrocco
from communication with the outside
world, and no gloomier picture can be
imagined.

A LAD TURN IN riECES BY A
VICIOUS MULE.
A from Wilke*barre sy: Con'
rtd Cramer, a of fifteen years, met bia
death yesterday, in a tnanasr at horrible
ts it was singular. He had been
td in hauling coal dirt from a culm pile
to the boiler house of the iloiienback
shaft. Tlo dirt was placed in a car which
ran over a narrow track laid on the top of
the coal culm, and to which a mule was
attached- It was the habit of the boy to
jump upon the mule's back, after dump'
iog the load, and ride over the return trip
Yesterday mule acted badly, and on
several occasions aUampled to throw his
rider, but the lad clung to him, greatly to
the amusement of a large gang of men 1
who were employed in tho vicinity, and
who laughed heartily at what tbey termed
the mole's "circus tricks," Hut their
mirth was suddenly Ulßpi to mourning.
The persistent efforts of the mute to throw
his rider ended at last in success, and in
falling off the boy's legs became entangled
in the harness, when the male began to
kick furiously at the lad. Before assis
tance arrived, the animal fairly enraged,
bounded forward, and, with the speed of
the wind, ran off toward a piece of woodsi
near by; the body of the poor lad, in the
meantime, being dragged alongoversharp
stones, ragged boulders and|innumerable
ugly projections. The boy bung directly
in front of tho mule's forelegs, and when
the animal stopped, which he did when he
reached the woods he seized oneof the boys
arms in his teeth and literally tore it into
fragment*. }Jo then attacked other por
tions of the bruised and bleeding body, and
with a fiondish malignity tore opau the
breast, thigh and back, laying the bones
bare in many places. Those who wit
nessed the flight of the mule hurried to the
assistance of the hoy as quickly as possi
ble, but when they reached him life was
extinct and the body mangled beyond
recognition. The old miners, who had
looked upon death in almost every form,
turned their beads away involuntarily,
tickened at the horrible sight before
them.

GOINO TO TIIK HEART OK THE
QUESTION.
The most timely and strongest article in
Scrlhnar's Monthly for October It that on
Socialism, by Prof. W. G. Mourner, of
Yale College. The subject is treated by
the hand of a master, and his article de
serves to be vei* widely read He tolls
us at the outset that—
Socialism Is the latest effort to deal with
a problem which Is a* old n* the human
race, and which will last as long s< the
race. Human being* tend to multiply be.
vond th* power ot a limited ara* of land to
support life, under a given stage of the
art*, and a given standard of living.
While th* population I* meagre in pro
portion to the amount of land at its dis
peta! the struggle for existence is easy,
the average status high, the population
nearly all on the average and nearly all
equal the competition of man with man It
lax, the penalties of individual error and
vice are light and uncertain, and the re
wards of painstakiag exertion are net
proportionate to those of less careful ef
fort, there is little poverty ai d misery,
and no "social problem When the
population is dents the struggle for self
preservation becomes severe, every ad
vantage weighs heavily, the average, tatus
is low, but it is made up of wide extreme)
and great inequality ot condition, the pen
alties of vice and error are heavy and cer
tain, and the rewards of peculiar talent,
skill and energy are very high. In tbis
state of society there are great poverty and
misery, and the social problem is present
ed.
It follows, then, that in an advaneing
society, in wkich population is becoming
more and more dense, the virtual of indus
try and self denial are becoming more
and more influential, and that in tha com
petition ot Ufa, poycrty and misery are
made the more direct and inevitable pen
alties of sbiftiessneei, lazinctt, extrava
gance, intemperance and imprudence.
I'oveity and misery will, therefore, exist
in human society Just to long at the in
dustrial vices exist in human natures and
it is fixed in the order of nature, not by
any decree of government*, congresses or
academies, that the man of industry and
self-denial shall possess great advantages
over tha man of idianOM M>4 improvi
dence, which shall increase ax time goes
on The instrument ot this advantage is
capita! All this holds trua, whatever
doctrine of final cause* one may adopt.
Tha meant by which Socialitm will
attain it* and* ara that tersely tteled ;
The mean* proposed ara political. Uni
versal suffrage is now virtually establish
ed throughout tbo civiiiaed world. The
Socialists propose, *iumitig that thosa
who have not are more numerous than
those who have, that the former shall uee
their political power to deepoil tha latter.
ThU is social democracy. The Common
lit* propose to dc*troy the Stale and all
social inuuutiop*, apd by lb# control of
tome committee to reconstruct society, af
ter it ha* been resolved into it* original
element*, under tuch form* and regula
tion* as they may consider suitable to cre
ate their ideal state of things. This i*
anarchy.
The iccial problem of the Socialist* is
thus seaxcbiogly analyzed, and it would
b* no easy matter to know bow a .übjectj
could be more completely and forcibly re
duced to itv original element* than i*
Professor Sumner's subject in the follow
ing paragraphs:
Only two answers arer have been or
c* hi ciyen to the social problem. One
iv . If'you nave p* oi f of bread, and
you tee another man enjoy one, goto wvrjsi
in the ncareet and best way open to you,
to produce one. The other i: If you
have no loaf, another man ha* one, steal
it, or at least half of it. Socialism and
Communism are but the latter
answer in a more or less elaborate ciiase,
of fine phrase*. They find in thair way
history, religion Ind the State, nnd they
falsify the first and propose to destroy the
two others. They find that in a highly
organized society sustaining a large popu
lation, tbo man who bas nothing must be
gin by rendering surjicea Us him who bas,
for wage*, and Ibey propose to 4*w-*/ uu<
wages system, a* if that would do anything
but 'caJ to the consumption of capital and'
the lowering of population through the'
death first of the poorest. They find tbc
strongest obsude of all in the marriage
and Uie Uwisl/, op b"hlf of which some
of ibo strongest tenuni*nu ana
of human nature are enlisted. To this they'
oppose either celibacy or promiscuity.
The former is the suicide of the race, the
latter would lead to over-population and:
universal misery. There would then be
equality—tbc equality of swine—and no.
otbar equality is realisable in tha material
circumstances of man on eartli. i
The projects of the socialists are based
on the dogmas that man is born free and
good, when he ia in fact born helpless,
and good or bad, a* he work* out bis des
tiny ; that the responsibility for vice and
crime i* on society, wben in truth it is inj
the individual; that nature meet* men
at the outset with gratuitous bounty,
which some appropriate to the exclusion
of others, when in fact nature holds back !
everything, and surrenders only to force,
and labor; that man is born endowed j
with "natural right*," wben in truth
nothing can be affirmed uni serially of the
stgle of man by nature save that he is
born to struggle fpr hi* own pre*ervstion,
with nothing but the family to help biJ
and nothing but liberty, er the *ecuiity oft
using hisown encrgie* for bis own welfare
as a fair claim upon hi* fellow-men, that
work is pleasant, or under tome circum
stances might he •©, when in truth work is
irksome, that men universally may be
made, by some conventional agreement or
sentimental impulse, to work !of others to
• njoy tho product, or to SSTO in order to
give away, that they may be led univer
sally to lay aside talents, health aod cUmr
advantage*, that wo can increase con- 1
sumption and leason production, yet have
more, that all have an equal right to the
product of ome, that talent* are the re
sult of chence, which intelligence ouglrt
to correct, wbpn ip truth talents arc the re-J
ward, from generation to genpratiop, of
industry, temperance and prudence, thatj
the passions neel no control, and that
•clf-denial is a vice. This i the aocialistic
creed, and from it it follows that a man
ha* a "natural right" towhatovor he needs
that hi* wis ha* ara tba measure of his 1
claims on bi fallow-pmn, that if be i* in,
distress, somebody ia bound to get hjmj
out, that somebody ought to decide what
work every one should do, regard lew of
aptitude, to distribute the product* equal
ly, regardless of morit. and to determine
consumption, regardles* of taste or prefer
ence. As this "ome one" must be a pure
despot, or In fact a god, all socialistic
schemes annihilate liberty. Most of them
era atheistic, end reject eny other god
then the mastar of society.
It hit been well said tbjtf the socialists
never got beyond the preamble of their
measures. They reiterate end reOne their
general theorlee and elaborate their dog
me*, but they never provide practical
measure* for realising anything, Ibia ii
the character win: of the acboola of phi-,
losophers whe want a ci>iwitaot. well
rounded and simple system, under which
to bring locial and political inititutiona.
The inevitable tcndoncy of eocialistic
schemes therefore, ia toward extreme*,
una toward a mora and more reckle**
I dogmatism in which the facta of life arc
more and more flagrantly contradicted.
The socialist* propose nothing practical
but revolution and destruction, and de
clare that they will draw the programme
of reconstruction when all is in ruins. It
is in the Lnitcd States alone that, with
Jpsp philosophy, they turn away from
schemes fop tasking everybody happy, to
put in action measures which, so
far as they go, will alter the distribution;
of property—usury laws, psper money,'
protective tariffs, violent interruptions of ;
industry, stay laws and ptoperly laws,
1 subsidies and special legislation. The
abuses committed hv the capitalist nnd
i those committed by the non-capltalit In
i tortwine and support each other, spring
f ing from the same principle,
r Socialism, as n movement, does not
- nutve by discussion. Its programme is
s vlolonce. Its tone Is; No argument; let
u* have our way, or bow a rat Modern
i violence consist* largely in voting, and
i whan this kind It available and sufficient,
s th<> social democracy ask* no more, ll is
. not available, the proposition Is plain and
i loud to use weapons and the torch. If,
- however, voting it not to bo controlled, in
the long run, by Intelligence, reason, al
. gumeiit and ditcuttion, then the t-ivilired
. world ha* been huililing'tor a century upon
, faith in certain doctrine* which are about
i to give way and to expose society to a
I terrible convulsion. All our inherited in
, stittttions of civil libeity Ism toward tha
I executive, as li from that organ alone
. danger could come. The power ha* now
I been transferred to popular majorities,
under the auumption that they would
never abuse it to enrich themselves at the
i expense of producers, as monarchs arid
aristocracies have done. The new task Is
todevie* institutions which shall protect
i civil liberty agalust popular majorities
i sinca it appears that this assumption it not
beyond question. That task lies next bo
. fore ut in the development of tbo art ot
government, and it appears that the great
, civilized nations will have to execute it
I before the end of tbis century, if they do
not intend to give up all that has been
won in five thousand yvars of history.

Who In Kiftht ?
John Wesley ence had some trouble in
regard to the different sects and their fu

was transported to the gale* of Hell. Here
he asked the following questions, fix
Are there any Catholic* here? Yes. was
the prompt reply. Any Presbyterian**
Ye. Any Congregaltoiiaiitx ? Yes. Any
Methodists' Yes, to the indignation of
the piou* Wesley. In the mystic ways of
dreamt and by a sudden transition, he
stood at the gate* of Heaven, and improv
ing hi* opportunity, he again inquired :
Are there any Roman Catholic* here 7 No,
was the irniuadtale renly. Any Prasby.

No. Any Methodist*. (l>y way of a
clincher)* No. Well then, asked Wet

of this dueation, may teem like preemp
