Democrats will see the importance of standiog by Mr, Ishier, the bardworkiog farmer, soldier and one of the best of Democrats. Acting upon the suggestions made in inst week's REPORTER we are pleased to learn that an effort will be made to have Fietta Weaver pardoged. The public in general endorse the sestiments express- ed by us io this case, aud Mrs. Weaver may soou be a free woman again, The story put out that Wm. Ishler paid $800 dollars to secure the nomina- tion is a bold falsehood manufactured by the grog-shop trofter of the Gazelle. Two things prove its falsity, viz: Wm. Isnler is not that kiud of mao, and again Wim. Ishier never had $900 to give away. This story is as crooked as the author's tracks at Sanbury, It needs no farther contradiction —~it comes from Fiodler. I SITE Pablic opinion should be pronounced in the case of a father and son pamed Rice, who conjointiy edit a Republican paper in Fort Scott, but who at present are opposing candidates for the Kansas Legislature, the son as a Republican and the father as an Iadependent. As a straight oul party organ their journal supports the son, but any man with the least sense of reverence in him would tell that youth to get out and give the old man a show, A prominent granger tells us the Wro- thy Master of the State grange only learned at Williamsgrove that he did not carry that respectable order in his vest pocket at ali--not even to the extent of a single vote, This could have been learned from the columns of the Reron- Ten long ago, and that his following was confined to only that especial friend of the farmer, an oa's operator, two or three middie-men and the vile Gazelle, all outs side of the grange. Strange company for a granger. They are Moving. A leading Republican of Chester coun- ty, Mr. Alfred Sharpless, is authority for the statement that in that couaty “the names of 700 Chester county Republicans have been listed who will positively vote for Goverpor Paitison.” And the work is still goiug on in thet county, An ine dependent Republican league has been organized in Warren pledged to resist boss dictation whieh numbers 20) of the 450 Republican voters of the borough, and organizations on the same basis are being formed in every township of the county, The Farmers’ League of Indiana coun- ty, composed largely of Republicans, has adopted a set of questions to be submitted to the consideration of candidates of both parties, Among them is the “Will you do all in your power to defeat caucus rale and to defeat the will of M. 8S, Quay in electing J. D. Cameron or any corporation ianyer for United States senator?” The other ques tions request of candidates to state wheth- er or not they will enforce the constitn- tion against corporations; do all they can to advance farmers’ and laborers’ inter ests; establish an equitable system of taxation; work for the Australian system of voting; let bribery and intimidation be dealt with as treason, and do all in their power to reduce high official salaries and to abolish the store-order system, It will be queer indeed if the Farmers League of Indiana county doesn’t give Governor Pattison a solid sapport, Evidences of activity against Delamater and Quay come from many couniies of the State, and in a few days the independent ; say plans of effec- tive organization covering the Common-~ wealth will be determined on and put into execution. This should encourage Democrats, bat they must not lose sight of the fact they have a great work before them, political following: Republican Of course they can labor more effectively with the reasonable sssurance of success. and that we take it, they have Robert E. Pattison will be next govers nor of Pennsylvania. That is the logic of the situation at this time, and it is a Democratic daly to confirm and streng- then it, ol - Sherman Falls into Line. In the senate on Monday Senator Sher- man presented the following which he said he would offer as an amendment to the McKinley tariff bill at the proper time. That whenever it shall be certified to the president of the United States that the government of the Dominion of Cane ada shall by Jaw or regulation, admit free of duty into all its poris coal mined in the United States he shall make pro. clamation of that fact, and thereafter, while such law or regulation is in force, coal mined in the Dominion of Canadas shail be admitted free of duty into all the poris of United States. And when* ever it shall be duly certified to the president of the United states that the government of the Dominion of Canada has declared a desire to enter into such commercial arrangements with the Uni. ted States as will result in the complete or partial removal of daties upon trade between Canada and the United States, he shall appoint three commissioners, to meet those who may be designated to represent the government of Canada, to consider the best method of extending the trade relations between Canada and the United Btates and to ascertain on what terms greater freedom of inter- course between the two countries can best be secured, and said commissioners shall report to the president, who shall lay the report before congress. It is very evident that Senator Sher- man’s purpose isto head off Secretary Blaice, for his reciprocity scheme is more sweeping in its character than that proposed by the secretary of state, Next we shall bear of some prominent repabli- can demanding absolute free trade bes tween this and all the civilized countries on the known globe. msn A.-M The Pops is healthy and vigorous to a remarkable degree considering his ad- vanced age. His Holiness, however, seems to be much worried because of the steady diminution of the ‘Peter's Pence” contributions. The amount of these voluntary oLerings being a species of barometer, indicating the condition of the Church universal at any given time the marked falling off now exhibited does not fail to reosive the anxious atten- tion of the head of the Church. His advisers endeavor to account for the situation on the theory of the pover- ty of the masses rather than on that of their diminishing zeal for the welfare of the Pontiff, but this explanation affords bat cold comfort. The decrease of revenue has become so marked that his Holiness has found it Necessary to withdraw certain invests ments in order to meet the expenses of maintaining the establishments whose cost has heretofore been defrayed out of the “Peter's Pence.” The Rash to waship county ticket is rot like the itch —it arent catchey, The Southern Alliances. The Republican papers are claiming that by the inroads made on the South- ern Democratic vote by the Farmers’ alli- ance there will pe a falling off in Dem- ocratic congressmen from the South, to) the great advantage of Republicans in| organizing the next congress.

It likely some of them will be elected in Republican districts, The fact is & two- edged sword, and promises tu cut every to tell which of the two great parties is hardest hit, It claims it will hold the balance of power in the next congress, important exception the alliance is much more in harmony with Democratic senti ment than Republican; hence in of the States it has trolled the nominatiovs of Demoeratic conventions. In the South the alliance is dead against the force bill, and equally pronounced for tariff reform. In the North, and notably in all States west of Pennsylvania, the alliance takes the Democratic position on the tariff, and we do not hear that it has declared itself one way or the other on the force bill. Oa one question, however, the Demo. cratic party can have no lot or part with the alliance, and that is its ridiculous sub-treasury scheme, TO POSES that the government shall provide wares houses for storing the least perishable products of the farm and shall jissuéd to the owners certificates, which certificates shall be available for currency.
