It is said that Quay was real mad last
week,
Quay threatens to sue chairman Kerr
for $100,000 damages. Quay always
goes for big boodle.
Quay wonders who gave that certifi-
cate to the Democratic committes. Why
need he wonder if it is all right?
Fayette county boasts of a three eved
caif baving been boru there. We guess
that third eye was put in to see who got
slices of the Bardsley steal.
New York and Massachufetts having
gone Democratic on Tueeday, makes
them certain for the Democratic presi~
dential colum in ‘92. Both went for
Harrison last time.
The Pittsburg Post keeps going for
Quay and again, on Monday, publishes
that certificate. The Post has the pluck
of the Reporter, its Democracy never
nails nor Qua kes.
Why don’t Quay sue the New York
World, for the ugly record it printed of
him? ‘The World for eight:en mouths
has challenged Quay for a libel suit, and
cannot coax him into it at all,

Taking all the states that held elec-
tions on Tuesday, the Democrats came
oat O. K., leaving nothing but Pennsyl-
vania and Ohio for the Republicans with
greatly reduced msjorities, on the best
men they conld put up. The result
keeps pointing to the elettion of 8 Dem«
ocratic president in 1892,
Chilie has an unpleasantness on hand
with Uncle Sam. A mob in Valparaiso
killed and wounded American citizens
belonging to the steamer Baltimore:
Satisfaction has been demanded by the
United States and a man-of war has
been ordered to Chili.
Governor Pattison was struck on the
back of the head on Saturday, by a stray
shot fired by a member of the Harris-
burg Gua Clab. He was shooting at a

tunately the shot merely grazed the ex-
ecutive caput.
If Anditor General Gregg will not als
low the state robbers to control him, be
will maintain his good name, aod have
higher honors awaiting him. The
pledge was made before the election
that Gen. Gregg would not be under the
infloence of the bosses, and that kept
the voles of thousands of honest Repubs
licans from drifting to Wright.
Cluny Castle, Andrew Carnegie’s much

Fuller details received in regard to the

already announced, though the ukase
prohibits the exportation of all cereals
excepting wheat from to-day, vessels

A member of the Koglish parliament
who is visiting in this country hes an
opinion about the Chilian trouble. He
says the United States would be soundly
thrashed by Chili in the first days of the
war, but, he kindly concedes, the United
States would be eventually successful.
Then he goes onto say he would like to
hear our howl after the first round, That
biarsted Britisher has doubtless read in
history something of how this country,
when young and weak, walloped Evg-
land a couple of times. But we have no
notion of allowing Chili to wallop us or
make us howl even in the first of the
trouble, We will not do any business
with Chili until we are good and ready
to do ber up, Then there won't be

Quay’s Libel Suits,
The Pittsburg Post says it is ready to
meet Quay in a suit for libel for prints
ing the Bardsley certificate, The Pou
bitingly remarks:
It seems to us the senator is a little
late in waking np to the realities. The
New York World some months ago gave
him his choice of tribunals and offered
to pay his counsel fees it he would go
into court and challenge the exposure it
made of the treasury embezslement of
1880, eettled by Senator Cameron. Beores
of other leading papers of the Union of
all parties printed the same terrible ar
raignment, and challenged Quay to the
test of the truth. Bat he)made no sign.
A leading congressman of his own party,
on the floor of congress, in a prepared
speech repeated the charges, and it went
on the records of the government. Quay
shrank from ievestigation, A little later
because of these enormities in his public
and private career, the leading journals
of his own party, representing its highest
type of political intelligence and morals
ity, demanded he should be deposed
from the chairmanship of the national
committee. He escaped the disgrace of
expulsion by resigniog,

Quay’s Libel Suits
It is very strongly intimated that Sena
tor Quay already wishes that be had not
been 80 impetuous in bringing suits for
libel. There is some talk that Mr, Quay
will endeavor to get a change of venue
from Allegheny county, and if possible,
have his suits against the Pittsburg Post
tried in Harrisburg. The senstor's reas
sons for choosing Dauphin county are
unknown, but everyone is entitled to a
guess. His reasons for desiring to keep
the case out of the Allegheny county
courts are much easier to determine.
The senator learned yesterday for the
first time that Congressman John Dalgel]
would be one of the counsel for the de.
fense, and that set him thinking. John
Daizell, D.T. Watson and Willis F. Me.
Cook form a very strong combination
from a legal point of view; in fact, they
are the undisputed leaders of the Al-
legheny county bar. But that is not the
worst of it. The appearance of John
Dalzell as counsel for the Post has a
political significance. It means that the
congressman believes his time has come
to kill off Quay politically, and to stride
over the corpse into the United States
senate,
Quay may feel confident that he has
good legal grounds for libel, bat he has
suddenly remembered the trial of the
case will be given the fullest pablicity,
and that the argoments of the counsel
for the defense, while they may make
good reading, will be decidedly unpleas-
ant for him to hear. Dalsell has no love
for the senator and is not likely to spare
him, and as he is a master of the use of
sarcasm and polished inveotive the result
will be painfal, especially when it comes
from a Republican congressman and is
directed against a Republican United

Te Visit Californis and Mexice via. P. B.R
No new feature ever inaugurated by
the Pennsylvania Railroad Company ats
tracted such universal comment and at-
tention as the series of tours run early
this year to the far Pacific Coast, and
now that another series is announced
for 1892, not only covering the Pacific
Coast but an individualized tour to Mexs
ico, the land of the Aztec, is further ils
lustration of the wonderfal growth of the
personoallysconducted system of trayal-
ing and the progressive move of this
worldefamed railroad. Each tour will
be limited to a certain number of pas
sengers, who will travel in a Pullman
vestibule train, furnished with the lux
urious appointments of thejrichest home,
with ladies’ maid, stenographer and
typewriter, library, bath and barber,
and smoking and library rooms, and an
observation ear—in truth an exact repros
duction of the famous Pennsylvania
Limited, The first tour leaves New
York Javuary 13th, and speeds directly
to the Pacific Coast via Bt, Louis, Kan
sas City, Las Vegas, and Santa Fe. The
second tour, the Mexican, leaves Febru-
ary 10th, ranning direct to the City of
Mexico via Cincinnati, Mammoth Cave,
Birmingham, Montgomery, and New
Orleans, with incidental stops en route,
The third, February 24th, runs directly
to New Orleans via Cincinnati and Mam
moth Cave, and thenoe, after the Mardi
Gras festivities, to the pacific Coast. The
fourth and fifth, both through California
tours, will leave March 24th and April
20th, respectively. :
The insuguration of this service last
yesr was the theme for universal com-
ment, and the warmest credentials of
praise bear festimony to the high stand
ard and perfection of evey detail promot-
ing the comfort and enjoyment of the
tourists,
Such on opportunity has never been
presented before to the people of the
East of thoroughly seeing the vast doe
main of the county they so valiantly
boast of, as well as sach an opportunity
of visiting the interesting land of the
Astec, replete with ruins garlanded with
mythical lore. The rates for the round
trip are exceptionally low, and include
not only all necessary traveling expenses
en roule to the Pacific Coast and return,
ut also side trips tothe attractive resorts
in California, and several carriage and
stage rides of interest. This applies as
well to the Mexican tour, where the ob- |
jective point will be the city of Mexico
and side trips made from there, the rate
including every necessary expense as
well as hotel accommodations and side
trips.
Itineraries presentiog the fall details
of the tours are in course of preparation
and will be issued at an early day. In
the meantime more detailed information
may be secured by sddressing Geo, W.
Boyd, Asst. General Passenger Agent,
Philadelphia, Pa.
Not Seared,
The Pittsburg Fost does not scare
worth a cent at Quay’s threat to sue it
for libel,
And chairman Kerr won't scare eith-
er—he says: ‘I know of no better place
to have the light turned on his peculiar
political methods than in a court of jur-
tice, I hope he may stick to his resoln-
tion, and I will aid him in getting at the
truth, The senate does not seem willing
to proceed, The Republicans are somes
what afraid of the facts, When they as.
sembled the Republican leaders rushed
joto the newspapers to say that they
would bring about an investigation, and
that only ten days would be required to
complete the inquiry into the scandals
surrounding the fiscal and reveane dee
partments of the Btate, Nearly three
weeks have elapsed and now we find the
majority party in the senate considering
the question of jurisdiction, The peo-
ple expected them not to haggle about
technicalities but to proceed to find out
the facts. In the light of these condi-
tions I say Mr. Quay owes it to the peo-
ple to demand a fall investigation in a
court of justice.”
