Phillips' Man. That celebrated
fanatic, Wendell Phillips, puis it in
this way, "Whon Congress refused tho
fureo bill sho left tho true men of the
nation with ono alternative. Wo must
tako for President a man who is a
force bill that is, Grant. I am cer
tain that under no other man can tho
Republican party hope (or success.
With theso views I demand of Grant
that ho load us again to victory."
Pooa Barn Builders. The Direc
tors of the Too'r and County Commis
sioners of Lebanon county have had a
sharp legal contest as to who had the
rii'ht to build a barn at tho Alms
llouso in that county. The Lebanon
county court decided in favor of the
Commissioners, and then tho Directors
of tho Poor carriod the matter to the
Supreme Court.
THE LICESSE QUESTION.
We notice that Judgo Ross, of the
Bucks and Montgomery district, lias
delivered a written opinion vn the II
conse question. Ho hold that In. ef
fect the new license law Is to take out
of the discretion of the oourta much
responsibility which has hitherto been
vested therein or perhaps imposed
thoreupon. He maintains that tho
courts are bound to grant licenses to
all who may apply therefor and who
comply with the legal conditions which
re required from applicants. By this
new act of legislation Judgo Ross be
lieves that a tree license law has been
ostaldishod, and that it no longer lies
within the discretion of conrta to limit
tho number of licenses granted by any
consideration except that of the quali
fication of tho applicants, but that
they are bound by tho law to grant
the petitions of all proper petitioners.
If this opinion should be confirmed by
the higher courts, tho new licenso law
will mako a radical change in the
whole license system and produco re
sults which wo belk-vo woro 'not con
templated by those who effected tho
legislation. For these results, howev
er, the courts cannot be held responsi
ble, for, as Judge Ross remarks, it is
not for them to speculate upon tho con
sequences of tho law but to adminis
ter it in accordance with its spirit and
meaning, and in regard to this tho doc
tors seem to widely disagree.
A Government assault. a game
of political sharp-shooting is going on
between Vice President Wilson and
Grant's personal organ, the Washing
ton Republican. Tho Vice President
scorns to bo ashamed of tho behavior
of his superior, and speaks out quite
plainly through tho columns of tho
Boston Advertiter. The Republican
counters and charges the Vice "gov
ernment" with being a "thin-skinned
Credit-Mobilior" and a "oringingly,
cowardly imbecilo." ; lutthor high-
sounding words, wo should say, for an
organ which loads a party csntrollcd
by grand moral ideas. If imbecility
leads an old rooster liko tho V. P. to
tell the truth, it would be well for tho
country if a few more leaders would
imitate him. It is so remarkably
strange that wbenover a loading Had
ical becomes disgusted with the crimes
and follies of his party, and commenc
es to exposo them that he is at once
pronounced a rascal or crar.y. Speak
ing ot tho Vico President's letter of
defense and justification, the Boston
iWsays: . "When he condemns wbnt
" he finds evil in that (the Republican)
" party ho stultifies hiniBolf, and worso
" by arguing for tbo perpetuation of
" its system of corruption, profligacy,
" grabs, rings, third terms and oflleo
" holding. If ho is sincere for reform,
" and cared for that chiefly, ho would
" at least mention with rospeet the
" great Democratio party, which ro
" form has honored with its confidence"

afil, which we flilly endorse. We give
It place, because the combination enter
ed into by the Pennsylvania liailroad
and certain oonl operators, to crush out
other less favored, Is to manifestly un
just, that evory fair niiided man must
condemn tho action ol the company in
entering Into the arrangement, and
which will be to disastrous in iU re
sults to many worthy and deserving
men who havoinrosted their all in the
business. It is to bo hoped that the
company will at onos retrace tho step,
and do equal and exact justice to all.
Thore has bouo greutuxoituniont.and,
indeed, consternation among the bitu
minous coal operators lor the punt ten
days. Uapoiirs that on the first of
tho nionth the I'enua. Itailroad Com
pany leased the preference of a fixed
number nf coal oars to certain coal
shippers in the bituminous regions. In
this proforeneo each liipier pays the
company 130 tier car per annum for as
many cars as lie wislies. and that num
ber of cars are set aside for bis ex
clusive use. For instance, if A takes
100 cars and 11 200 cars, the oom puny
will beep him supplied with his 100 or
zuu cars, as ine cast may bo, to tho
exclusion of everybody else. A fter all
the largest operators are supplied in
this manner, it is mud that a large num
ber of cars woultl beahtorbed, and the
remainder of the cats are then used by
tho company for their own use, for
lumber shippers, stole, Ac, and for,wi
mal drahrt at do nottnjnu the tirrtertnet.
I lie enect, it appeals, was Instantane
ous. Operators who had boen ship
ping ten, fifteen, (wenty or more cars
of ooal a tlay, suddenly get none, or
perhaps one or two a woek. Their
customers, of eorrse, could not be sup
plied aim natumiy Kerr comwiled to go

enet of the compmy ; and it Is said that
ot an the oporabrs in tho Allegheny
regions only oni Arm is supplied with
cars, lbe otbt-H get none, and, it is
said, if the polcy is continued, they
will be competed to go out of busi
ness at great Ins.
It would strito any ono with com
mon sense viev that a policy produc
ing such disastrous results must be
wrong; and wlen we have heard the
opinion of tho ligul profession they say
as common carter for all shippers, it is
simply and clearly illegal on tho purt
ot the coinpanyto make any sucn tin-
just and gross (Incrimination.
Again, it is snd it an ordinary ship.

ooal to Heading lailroad cars at llur
risburg, at a cost; to him of say twenty
oents a ton. Itul if one of the prefer
red shippers shits his special cars to
the same points ion the Heading road,
his car and coil pass at once to the
Beading road,-and without cost of
transhipment. I
Theso aro the complaints, and, if
true, it Is evident that are niatlo with
good reason. The lituminotis coal
men have thousands nfdollars invested
in their business. Tboy havo sustain
ed heavy losses by reason of panic and

measure wero rogaiiing It, by reason
of the anthracite troihles, tho Compa

evory industry alongthoir road strikes
a blow that must ruin hundreds ot men
who naturally had a right to claim
this great corjioratiol as their protect

BOLD ROItllERY.
Tho Vonango Sjiectator relates tho
following: On Thursday evouing last,
threo men came to tho house of Wil
liam Prilchard. near Deinnsovtown.
and Inquired tho distance to Franklin;
they also askoit lor something to eat.
They wero told to como in by Mrs. F.
II. Prilchard, who lives in the house,
and a lunch was tot before thorn. Af
ter outing, they linked Willium l'ricli
ard what tho charge was and he refer
red them to his son Francis in an ad
joining room, engaged In tacking down
a carpet, 1 uey went U) the other
room and wero told there was nothing
to pay. Olio of tbo mon stopped back
a few imees, drew a revolver and as
tonished Mr. Pritihaidby tho demand,
"your money uryour life nghlstraightl"
Mr. Prilchard backed into the dining
room, tho whole fhruo of the robbers
following, each with a cocked revolver.
The whole family wero then in tho
dining room. The chief rohlwr then
told tno other two to guard the doors.
Francis I'ritchard told them to hold
on, and he would give them tho pock,
ot book containing all the money in tho
llouso. Ho then went to a drawer, a
robber follow ing him with a cocked
revolver in one hand and a "billy" in
the other, Tho robbor took the pocket
hook, examined it, and said to Mr.
l'richard: "You havo more money
than that.'' Mrs. Frichard replied
"search tho house then." The robbor
commenced a search of tbo drawer,
finding a silvor watch, which he pock
eted. At this timo Mr. I'richurd's
hired man, who hnd been watching his
chances, spnnig for a door that led
np stairs. The robber made a grab
at him but. did not catch him.. Ho
then snapped bis revolver at him.
which fortunately missed fire. The
hired man succeeded in getting to tho
upper story and jumped cut of a win
dow. The robbers heard the ash tall
and the whole threo ran out to catch
the hired man and prevent him from
giving the alarm. That was the last
seen of tho mhlHirs. The man rcturav
ed in hour with Daniel Turner, John
Turner, and George Turner, three
neighbors, all armed, but the robbers
had gone. The hired girl also suc
ceeded in gutting uway without tbo
thieves knowing it, botore tho In mi
man mado his esuapu, hut rdio was too
much frightened to do anything but
concvul herself in tonic bushes, a short
distnnce from Die bouse, until tbo rob
bers bad left. The amount in the
poclcot book was about four dollars
and fitly cents. That and tho watch
make tiio nut result of the thieves'
rlabors. Mr. l'riuhard hud several
thousand dollar in I ho house, which
tho rascals might havo secured if they
had nut been frightened by the hired
man's ohcupo. That money, which no
doubt caused the attack, is now where
it ought to bo, deposited in oue of our
banks, where it is perfectly info and
is no lunger an incentive to robbery
and perhajis murder.
The lending villain was about six
feet in height, with Burnside whiskers
and dark clothes. . Tho other two wore
about fivo foet seven or eight inches,
dark clothes, stout built ; one with a
gontooaud chin whiskers and tho other
a mustache They wero all ol vory
dark complexion, perhaps colored for
the occasion. In their hurried depart
ure they left a vulise containing some
scraps of victuals, matchea,seissors and
a comb. There was also a letter in
tbo valiso, addressed "Mirecves, Mil
lerstown." Its contents werei; "1

terprise in which our townsman Is now
engaged, says: "Now, as to the sight
seers, ex-Govornor Bigler says that
the matter has received tho careful at
tention of the Board of Finance, and
the number of visitors, pluced at the
probable minimum, is estimated at
3,000,000. In tho main exhibition
building alono there will bo twenty
miles of avenue, more space than most
visitors would care to cover in one day.
In addition to the main building will
be the many other attractive adjunct
to bring the visitor on the grounds for
mora tiiun ono day. An important
question, then, Is, How often will be
come? The gentlemen who have
studied the problem say at least throe
times. Tlireo entries for 3,000,00(1 peo
ple gives a total of 9,0110.000 entries,
which ex-Governor Iligler thinks a
moderate estimate. A reliable firm,
with extensive Kuropeau cunnenions,
is already in receipt of advices which
lead to the belief that all Kurope will
be represented by ut least 500,0110 )ieo
ple. The greater part of these will
come from Great Britain and Germa
ny; it is difficult to say Which will send
the turgor number. This leaves 2,500,
000 to bo drawn from tho States and
Territories, nearly all of which have
given very promising assurances. Tho
commissioners think, however, that
the requisito number cun be relied up
on without going vory liir in any di
rection. Taking Philadelphia as a fo
cus, there are, within a radius of 2.1(1
miles, 12,000,000 of people, allowing
five members to each family: should
each send a representative there will
be 2,400,000 visitors from nenr-by
points, leaving 100,(100 to come from
oiiuddo tho limits named. The com
missioners estimate 6(1,0(1(1 as the av
erage daily attendance."

OUR COXQRESSMAX.
It is gratifying to observe tho uni
versal approbation that is given by the
Democratic press and ieople to Hon.
I,. A. Mackey's recent action, with
reference to tho appointment of candi
dates for the United Status uaval and
military schools from this district, not
withstanding this action resulted in
one caso in the selection of the son of
a staunch itepuhlican. The tact Is es
pecially gratify ing, us showing the high
sense of justico w hich porvados and
actuates the Democratic party. For
years it has been customary on the
part of Itepuhlican Congressmen to se
lect for such appointments the sons of
Kepublicans only, llut Mr, ilackcy,
alive to his obligation as a representa
tive of tho whole people of the district,
Instituted tbo system of competitive
examination, opening tho doors wide
for the talented youths of tho district,
irrespective of the political predilec
tions of their parent. Fair and thor
ough examinations wero hold bclbro
competent committees, and tho result
showed a creditable standard of phy
sical and intellectual strength on the
part, ol the candidates. Kill amongst
tho number, in each ease, the commit
tee, without a division of opinion, point
ed out tho ono best qualified for pros
oiitpromotioii.and Mr. Mackey prompt
ly gavo him the appointment, without
oven inquiring whether tho boy came
of Democratio or liepublican parent
ago. This course was not only right
in itself, but creditable aliko to Mr.
"Mackey and to the party which elect
ed him, and which now so unanimous
ly approves his action. Jswittown

A Gooli Skin. In former years,
when a candidate for Governor was to

scarcely anything of tho kind is seen.

that tho occasion is too inqiortaiit for

Political Stuvatiotv. H has boon
assorted by many tapers since the

that there was a larj and inirticnttul
party of old-time Hnow.Nothing, or
political bigots, in thl ronvoiillon,who
were determined to pish the issno be
fore the people, but on second thought
laid it over for luUi-e use. In this
connection tho Allenlnwn Democrat as
