CiiffTii* Hall, Pa., June Ift, 187 ft.
The republicans of the House on M ed
nesday of la*t week, werelvadly split up
on the Array lull. The stalwarts are
dissatisfied with it because it condemns
the use of troops at the polls. Messrs.
Garfield, Conger, Haw ley and about half
the republican* voted with the IVmo
crata on test questions. The feeling be
tween the two wings of the Republi
cans was very bitter. Mr. Garfield was
understood to foreshow Hayes' course
on signing the bill, anil this increased
the discontent of tbe ultra*.
In 1876 Petroff was a member of tbe
legislature and was fouud guilty of cor
rupt practices relating to llerdic's boom
bill. The democratic House expelled
him.
In I&7U Petroff was again found guilty
of corrupt practices relating to the Pitts
burg riot bill, and the republican House
refused to expel hitn.
This is s sample a* to which party
punishes the corrupt wheu found guil-
There is a rumor that lVm Cameron
intends resigning his seat in the I . >
Senate, because he feels he is out of
place. That he is out of place in the
senate is a fact. That Cameron knows
he is out of place is undoubtedly true.
That he intends to resign is a* little
likely as it wonid be for Gen. Grant to
refuse a present. Much as Cameron is
out of place in the senate he will stick to
his seat lik* tar to a nigger s heal. It is
not in the Cameron blood. It is not a
characteristic of the Cameron famiiv to
buv high places and then throw them
away. As long as the republican party
rules Pennsylvania, so long will Came
ron rule the party and be one of tbe
senators. Not a bit will he resign, un
less to get one of his sons in His place.
The Grant hippodrome to California
is likely to be a failure. In fact it is not
likely to como off at all. The whole
fuss about a big railroad excursion was
gotten op by the plunderers who flour
ished and fattened under Grants rale
while the country was suffering im
poverishment and disgrace. The Bel
knaps, Babcocks, Moeebys, and western
whisky and revenue thieves all joined
In the howl for an excursion to San
Francisco to welcome Grant.
They are the men who want Grant
nominated for a third term, as they
would then revel in clover again up to
their necks. These are the men who
will go if any do go. The western reve
nue thieves, pardoned ont of the peni
tiarv by Grant, alone wonid fill a train
of ten or a dozen cars, and with tears of
joy wonid welcome Ithe return of the
great tramp.
If Grant can not be renominated,
those men will not be in good humor at
all, because there is no other .man in
the country, excepting Grant, who as
president, would delight in having the
plunderers, jobbers, jockies. and gam
blers gathered around him, and appoint
them to honorable positions, as under
the late Grant rnle.
Between now and the 23d of July an
immense amount of money will be
thrown on the market. Called bonds to
the extent of $284,000,00U are to be tak
en up. Of these aboat $100,000,000 will
be by direct exchange of *ix per cent,
for four per cent, bonds. The remain
ing $184,000,000 must be reinvested
somehow and somewhere. It may* give
real estate a boost.
The New York World: The joint leg*
islative committee appointed to tender
the hospitalities of tbe State to General
Grant has decided not to meet the Gen
eral in California. Its members will se
lect a convenient fence on or near the
boundary line of the State of New York,
and sitting on the same will receive him
as be passes over the line from Penn
sylvania. This will be at oaee more
diplomatic and less expensive than a
"railway carnival," even if all the
members* backs were "chalked" to at
tend it.
The World's special on the back
down of the radicals last week on the
army bill says:
The demoralization of the Republicans
is complete and the cloaing scenes in the
House to-day on the passage of the
Army bill were of more than ordinary
interest. The diacontent among the
stalwarts with the threatened surrender
of Mr. Hayes and his friends has been
growing ever since Ryan attempted to
offer the bill on Monday. To-day it
broke out in open revolt against Gar
field while he was speaking in favor of
the bill and was trying to make it ap
pear that the I>emocrata had surrender
ed. Mr. Garfield is understood to have
keen speaking by the book in favoring
the bill, and it is believed that his speech
was made at the request of the Presi
dent and that it was intended to give
an intimation that the bill would be ap
proved.
The consideration of the measure pro
ceeded quietly until the sixth section
was reached. That provides that no
money shall be used to pay the troops
while going to or at the polls for the
purpose of keeping the peace. In the
mean time General Johnston had done
a grace full act in moving to strike out
of the bill the section forbidding promo
tions in the army above the rank of cap
tain. When the sixth section was reach
ed General Garfield made his surrender
speech. It was a curious scene. The
Republican leader attempted the role of
a ccnoueror announcing his triumph.
With head thrown back and with his
londest voice he proclaimed that the Re
publican party was never in favor of us
ing the army as a mere police force to
keep the peace at the polls. As he
strided the aisle he worked himself in
to ti fever of assumed enthusiasm,
shouting to the Democrats that they had
attempted to wipe just laws from the
statute book, but had run againßt the
rock of a constitutional veto, and their
vessel had gone down and now no bub
bles rose to mark the sjot where it bad
been. His glow and fervor were not
proof against the laughter and derisive
applause of the Democrats, nor the pro
tests ofbis stalwart Republican collea
gues who were honest enough to admit
that their party had stampeded and in
dignant enough to rebel against their
leaders. Garfield labored hard to show
that to vote against the section would be
in effect to vote in favor of the use of
troops at the polls to keep the peace,
and, said he, forgetting his own record,
"no sane man is in favor ofthat. Again
the Democrats laughed and applauded
vigorously. They had the Republican
leader on the hip, taking back all he
had said on the Army bills and with his
followers thoroughly demoralized. He
insisted that the Federal Government
Ihould have the power to enforce its
laws at any time and at any place,
Whether an election was in progress or
Hot, forgetting or never knowing the fact
WO plainly pointed out in Mr. Knott's re
port to-day that under the law as it
stands the .Federal Government has no
such power. In the midst of his haran
gue Representative Williams, a stalwart
Wisconsin Republican, put the knife in
to Mr. Garfield, as Mr. Cox expressed
It, by asking him whether the President;
haß the right ever to use the army to
twep the peace at the polls. Garfield |
tried his band at a niediued affirmative,
hot tolled in his effort, amidst groat
laughter. After his speech thodiaafi'oot-
Oil He-publicans bopped for time to nssert
themselves. It wan late in the after
noon, however, ami the lVmoorats
wanted to vote. Oar ft eld hurried over
to the other side of the t'hnnihor and
hepped Clymer to insist on the elosinp
of tne discussion, and his request was
granted and his misery ended, with
Keifer on the floor protestinp tlint ho
had l>eoii papped. On the vote fourteen
Republicans voted that the bill was a
surrender of all that tliey had been con
tending for during the session, and to
night thev are loud In prophetic warn
ings to their yielding associates The
Senate stalwarts are very tuiti b put out
by the action of the House Hepubli. in
and will make a tight against the bill
when it reaches that body.
The army bill passed, with the de
tnoralited republicans general!) voting
for it. Yeas t• -. nava only 31.
"Where is the lVmocrat who can
point to any bill reported by a Oetno
crat in the 47th Congress that is in the
interest of the laboring man
This is a question asked by the l ew*
isbtirp Chronic!', radical. Me answer,
when the democrats passed bills reduc
ing the bxpensos over to millions, thai
was in the interest of every la >oring
man in the country.
The "back down" seams to come i:i

of the republicans in eongrt s> is attribu

ting one of their number, ltyan, of Kats-
sas, to present the very army bill i r
bidding the use of troops at elections
which was agreed 111*011 in tbe c 111 -
cratic caucus. They were driven back
however, by the democrats who were re
inforced by several republicans, and
while tliey are now in the p -it.-n of
having acknowledged their failure il.ey
will be obliged to suiter the additions,
humiliation of having to wait the pleas
ure of the democrats before they w ill be
able to accomplish the surrender. If
ever people went out a wool-gathering
and came back shorn it is the republican
leaders in congress.
SIIAH WICK ERSUA if.
One of the public shams of this <. m
monwealth, is the one who bears the
l*oetical name of Wickersham an edu
cational humbug, who has been farm
ing the department of common school*
of this state for over a dozen years in a
manner to bring a heavy return of
sheckels to his own private fortune, and
for the benefit of pets and favorites. He
has been in the school department too
long by 10 years. His time has bfeu freely
taken, while the state pays him a salary,
with getting ont books of his own, w hieli
by mean* of the position he occupies, he
can foist upon educators and the sch -
of this state, and make a good thing of
it. Ho manages to have the School
Journal another pet of his, to be foisted
upon the teachers and school boards of
the state, making an immense and pro
fitable circulation for this monthly
school magazine, and in addition has
operated so as to make it the official
source in the state for the laws, deci
sions, Ac., of the school department,
thus securing an additional supply "f
sheckels for bis purse, notwithstanding
there are other educational journals in
the state as deserving a* his, but bis
position as state superintendent gives
him advantages for the furtherance of
his own private interests. We will say
noihing of the divies that one occupy
ing the position of Superintendent f
common schools ha* in prospect from
book publishers, for recommending
their books and publications and thus
seenring those parties large and profita
ble sales, while the people are pestered
with the expense in change of bo- k
and so on. Thus Sham Wickershaui
and his favorites are having sugar all
the time. He has even come down to
recommending a little job of printing
township school reports for a pet in
Monongabela City, Hazzard A Son,
which, while it is a trifle to any local
printing office, is still more tritlling for
the great Mogul of.the school system of
Pennsylvania to engage in, and build up
a monopoly for this pet. This statement
for a single job, would be worth $2,7.3 to
$3 yearly, intelligently itemized for a
township. Bat Hazzard sets up a form
once, leaves that pet, Sham Wickersham
sends out to all the school boards in the
state his endorsement of his pet's
scheme, and thus secures for him a mo
nopoly of that printing from perhaps a
lOOOacliool boards at $1,23 for 3o slips.
Now any office on the same plan would
tind it profitable to print those slips at
"octs. for .30 copies, and if only the
boards of one county wanted them we
could afford to print them for less than
$1 per 30 slips. Here it will be seen
what a handsome piece of farming Sham
Wickersham can do for u and
that favorite, undoubtedly has an ar
rangement by which he and Sham
Wickersham may play the game of "ad
dition, division and silence,"' ala Bill
Kemble. These statements thus furn
ished are not in their itemization what
the spirit of the law intends. It is ab
surd to think that the items can be uni
form, one school district like another, or
one year like all other years, because
the work done varies, and the conse
quence is that with Sham Wickersham's
pet's stereotype slip arrangement, a
hundred items can be hidden behind
the unlimited folds of the "ittc." And
thus Sham Wickersham imposes his
pets upon unsuspecting school boards
throughout the state. We mislaid a re
cord of Sham Wickersham's profitable
farming of the school department, which
sets all we say above in the shade, and
would startle the most unconcerned tax
payer,—we will print it in the Reporter
as soon as we get hold of it again. \\ c
tell the people that our Btate school
machine is run with a great deal of sham
under the cloak of love .for education,
and that as much corruption can be un
earthed there as perhaps in any other
department of the state government.

Norman Spencer stole l",5oo from
the Pennsylvania Oil Company, that
employed him as book-keeper, and lied
to the Southwest. The robbery was
carefully planned, and the thief's inten
tion was to take a new name, settle
down as a planter, and marry the Titus
vilie girl to whom he had long been en
gaged. she knew all about this scheme
and was to join him as soon as practica
ble. A detective was set to watch her,
and when she started westward, after
receiving a mysterious letter, he guess
ed she meant to join her lover, lie
shadowed her on the journey so closely
that she became aware of his watching.
At <2aiocy, 111., she hired a woman of
about her own size and shape to jut on
her travelling suit, cover her fuce with
a veil, and go to Chicago: The detec
tive unsuspectingly followed the wrong
woman, while the real one went on to
meet the fugitive thief. Meanwhile
Spencer had bought a plantation near
Galveston, Texas, and fallen in love
with a neighbor's daughter, ihod ring to
marry her, he wrote to the TilusiMle
girl at a j>oint on her journey that she
need not come to him. The Titusville
girl was as quick at revenge as she had
been at deceiving the detective. She at
once informed the police where Spencer
was, and he has been arrested.

A .S'u/i reparter interviewed Gen. Ew-.t

Ohio, with the following ro*ult t jj
"What are the prcipecl* of union'" he *
was asked. I '
"The Democracy was never more uni- 1
ted than we are now. As soon as our nam-; 1
ina'ion* wero announced the work af ac- j |
tivo organization was begun, and is now , n
going un rapidly. We are going to have I
a hot and lively campaign, the most ex-A
citing we ever had in Ohio." jt
"You regard it, then, as the keynote of 1
the Presidential campaign for 1880'" Jv
"Very much so The campaign will be |
fought greatly on national issues." j i
"How about the recent vetoes of Hayes' ' r
"They will help us very much. 1 have i
no doubt—indeed I know-that the peo I;
plu ot Ohio are with the Democracy on ali *
the points of issue they have made with tl
tin- Administrlit n during the present ex- t
tra session of Congress. I am sure that
Hayes lia lost greund in Ohio by hi* re- v
toes, and that the vote in the coining elec • h
lion will show it." s
"How about the election law and
supervisors and marshals at the polls T" j '
•"Well we have aot fell it so much in
tin- West as you have in the East, hut the ' s
Kt-publii ans in Cincinnati tried something t
of the same game that Davenport did it r
New York Many Republicans, I know,;"
are with US, and we expect to add some of
their vote* to those of the united Demise- p
racy in favor of u free ballot b"j." | fi
"Do you expect there will be much of a "
ft
cry made by the Republicans about 'Con- l(
federate brigadiers' in thi* canvass ?" u
"Woll, they won't wave tho bloody '
shirt much. 1 guess Rice and myself, 'j
with only three legs between us, can beatH
Foster and Hickenlooper on four lug-
when they come to tho military part of "
the canvass." r ,
"Do you expect much help from the
Eastern Democracy- any of'the sinew* of

money. We are the poor man's parly.
We are going to tight this battle n prin

we shall stick to that. We never did re
quire any pecuniary aid from the Kast."|

conveatians, or something like that. We
1 generally begin the heavy work ol the
' campaign about the middle of August,
and keep it up as lively as we can trisin

"How about the Greenback vote

For all the purposes of a Family Physic;
and for cunaaCoataveneea, Jaundice,

ner Pill, tor purging the Bloodk^^
arc still the most thorough and search
ing cathartic medicine that can bo
employed: cleansing the stomach ami
bowels, and even the blood. In small
doses of one pill a day, they stimulate
the digestive organs and promote vig
orous ncalth.
AYER'S I'ii.l.S have been known for
more than a quarter of a century, and
have obtained a world-wide reputation
for their virtues. They correct dis
eased action in the several assimila
tive organs of the body, and are so
composed that obstructions within
their range can rarely withstand or
evade them. Not only do they euro
the every-day complaints of every
body. but also formidable and danger
ous diseases that have baffled the best
of human skill. While they produce
powerful eflbcts, they are, at the some
time, the safest and best physic for
children. By their aperient action
they gripe much less than the common
purgatives, und never give pain when
the bowels are not Inflamed. They
reach the vital fountains of the blood,
and strengthen tho system by freeing
It from the elements of weakness.
Adapted to all ages and conditions
In all climates, containing neither
calomel nor any deleterious drag,
these PLlls may be taken with saTcty
by anybody. Tneir sugar-coating pre
serves them ever fresh and makes
tbem pleasant to take; while being
porely vegetable, no barm can arise
