TUt ticket put In notulnniioti by the county convention last Monday reflects considerable credit on tho couuty Dein ocracv. The candidates nominated rep resent fully and Impartially the true sp'lrlt anil principle .of tlio Democrats party. It Is but right loexpect that the candidates nominated, by the late con vention will receive the hearty support of nil Democrats and the hearty co-operation of the disappointed. In the com Inn contest It is necessary that we stand together firm and united, all working llatmoulously for a common causethe welfare of the Dcniscracy and the sue cess of the ticket is assured. The per sonal difficulties which presented them selves and which had to be overcome at the past sdVcral elections has been the means of reducing a Democratic majori ty of six or seven hundred to question able figures. Wo all admit of the In consistency of such proceedings. We have seen Itepubllcans 1111 unices that should only be filled by Democrats In a Democratic county. This can be avoid ed In the future by the adhesion of all Democratic voters to the Democratic ticket. It Is but just to the candidates nominated and honorable to Democracy that every effort be made to bring out tho regular vote and work up tho old llmo six or seven hundred majority for every candidate. "Deaii Mqiituimkr, tho workingmcn of the lower end aro an Intelligent class." Gillespie. Which fact was clearly demonstrated by the election of Klotz delegates last Saturday. THE TEMPERAIICE PROBLEM. The New York Star: For tho last hundred veers the evil of intemperance has urged itself on tho public attention. War has been waged on it from tho pul pit and platform, and in tho press. Every sort of social and moral pressure has been brought to bear, and it has been finally forced into politics. State after State has taken it up, and the prohibi tionist element lias been zealous in season and out of season in trying to force legis lative action. Sumptuary laws have been passed with but little cfl'cct on the main cyil, except to combine tho vices of tho sneak and hypocrite whith thoso of tlie drunkard. Politicians havo used the political temperance party selfishly to further their own purposes nd still there seems to ho no solid gain for all (he zeal and ingenuity displayed by the advocates of prohibition. Probably every riirlit-mindcil man 1ms a sincere sympathy with tho objects of nie temperance zealots, theiemoval of an evil which has been and is the cause of Infinite crime and suflering. I)ut the means taken to cfrect the result is not only useless in .-csnlt, but coiiotitutcs In itsclfyinvil fully as much to be dreaded as the ono against which it is aimml. The doctrine that moral and social evil can ever bo cured by forco or legislative enactment lias written its own fallacy 'in failure a thousand times. I.aws looking to this end easily multiply themselves inlo tho most tyrannical and vexatious restrictions. Tho ingenuity of man is set to work to evade them, and an sun. ccssfully tiiat they soon become dead letters. Iho hiinday law, for example, is notoriously so void that there !r lint more than the faintest pretense of con cealment anions: hnuor dealers, and mnnv drug 6tores sell as freely as tho avowed f roggenes. I hero is nrobablv not n nilv or state in the country nominally under prohibition laws where there is not the mil quantum of drunkenness, especially on Sunday, tho workincman's onlv dav t( rest. Dr. Felix Oswald contributes a suggestive paper on this subject to the last issue of tho Forum. He says : Our privileged cltlzons can leave tho city for uenks to propitiate nature by a jiHgilm aco to the sanetnarles of the wilderness, and resioroiiiclrhsiltlihythe faicandtho out door soorta of their imttn-fMiltMlm. But tlioso privileges are denied to the very eiae most soreiym necil or their blessings, and by suppressing all popular pastimes on the day when a va.st plurality of own orking pen And their only leisure for recreation, wo fbrce them to scclc relict In the narcotics of the nun hip and drown their inlery In the Letho oi Intoxication, They drink to get drunk; they tako refuge In tho delirium of the poison fever as in a dream to eseapo the oiil-Dlekenlng round-about ot six days of nruugeiyionoweu i,y a fvvcnlh day of un atlxlkd longings, Heat tho furnace fires, shut and rivet tho vahes. and pray for the safety ot the bolter; tint do not hope to pre tent the explosions of vhe aftcrshuttlng the gates of nierey on tho panting tollers of a factory town by dotting their libraries, clos ing their paiks, preventing their escape by topping excursion boats mid picnic trains, Slid then convening n prayer meeting toaveit tho well-know n consequences. Dr. Oswald denounces bitterly the ex treme SabbatarinniBin which would pre vent tho woililugman from enjoying the thousand innocent pleasures and rtcrea lioin which might easily bo thrown open to him. The rigid theory f the Lord's day which keeps pictnro galleries and libraries closed and seeks in every way to prevent Sunday pleaMiru travel, Is ono which is peculiar to England and Ameri ca, especially the Utter country. We do not fully share. Dr. Oswald's optimism, but certainly the remedy lie proposes of changing tho battle ground to the open fields, founding temperance gardens.with playgrounds, freo music and hygienic reetauranlH, starting free gymnasiums in Tillages and city parks, etc., has all the merit of being rational. There is but little doubt that if raeans.were provided for giving workingmen opiwrtnnlty for a variety of healthful nnd attractive re creations pn Sunday, there would he much less liquor swilling and drunken ness on Sundays. Actiso Sccrofary Fairchlld Wednes day Issued the ono hundred and forty lecond call for the redemption of bonds. It calls for $15,000,000 of the three per cent, loan of 1SS2, nnd principal nnd In terest will bs paid at the Treacnrv De partment on October 10, when interest will cease, A new feature, first em-' Vodled In this call, Is that parties holding I the called bonds can obtain Immediate ' payment, with Interest, to date of pre-' sentat on, by requesting the tamo in thfl. letter forwarding the houls Mr redemption, OUT OP POLITICS. Ororge W. Esser, In declining re-clec-Hon ns rhalrman of the county com mittee, says "he has promised his fami ly that ho would go out of politics this year," and he evidently means to do It. Mr. Ksser has served tho Carbon county Democracy, In tho capacity of chairman of tho county committee, for four consecutive years, and as the duties involved In that office are at most la borious and without apparent honor or credit It Is not so much of a sacrifice for Mr. Esscr fo be called on to make In tho Interest of his family. So, goes out of politics a man who has served the Carbon county Democracy In indtB ways than one. And while he lias made himself objectionable to many Democrats, In several Instances he has, also, become endeared to many more, whom he has favored with his Inllitenco In political circles. Palmam qui meruit ferati Mn. Blai.nk and his friends have reaped the fruits of tbelr vigorous campaign In Maine and have succeeded In carrying the State for the ltcpubllcan ticket by about the average majority. The vote Is lighter and tho majority smaller than It was years ago, hut quite up to the flgurcrs of an ordinary off year, If not a little better, and with this Krothcr Illnlno should be content. Ap parently the Prohibition vote has not exceeded that cast two vcars ago by the Prohibitionists, Greenbackcrs and other scattcilng forces. Asregards individual results, says tho Philadelphia Times, the only matter of general Interest is the return of Mr. Reed to Congress. This Is as It should bo. Ho Is one of the ablest men upon the ltcpubllcan side of tho House, and his defeat would have been a national loss. Perhaps there is no other Maine man of whom so much could bo said. The New York Star begins Its second year under the management of Mr. Dorsheimer by doubling Its size without Increasing Its price. This Is an assurance either of great prosperity or of great temerity. The Star Is such an excellent newspaper that wo do not doubt Its cntcrpiiso is tho result of popular ap preciation. Its sales ought to double In answer to Its doubled size and outlay. As the only straight Democratic dally in Democratic New York It should havo an answering support. Tun mellow and reproachful note of tho chestnut ticket echoes painfully through the vaulted chambers of the Court House, falling sadly upon tho cars of men who cannot rule. Tun 'communistic utterances of the circular published by Dr. Gillespie at Mauch Chunk, should bo quelchod. They arc not worthy of Democracy. iiu's M Yoft Letter. Special to the Cahiion Advocath. Tho first Sunday of September dawned hopefully, and the Tc deum laudamus, and Gloria In Excclsis Deo rose from hundreds of exultant choirs, which for months have been deserted and silent. Tho first Sunday of September is usual ly ono of the happiest and most joyous In the year. Old friends renew their friendships, and even enemies come back with softer feelings of forgiveness; better for liavlnii been away. Now, wo may be said to havo fairly got down to our Fall and Winter work; it being gen erally conceded, that for this year, at least, our play spell is over. From every pulpit went up prayers for our brothers and sisters In the South on whom their terrible misfortune lies with a heavy hand. As wo look at those tremendous buildings, fourteen or fif teen stor!e3 high, which the modern elevatdr has rendered possible of habi tation, wo cannot but ask ourselves if the shock that was fell, hero on that fatal Tuesday night, and which laid Charleston in ruins, had been a little more severe, whero would New York be. There aro several flat houses different parts of the city of enormous proportions. Many of them just thrown together on the Iluddenselk princlplo, they would almost topple by their own weight; what chance would the.y stand In a shock like that, which carried such desolation to Charleston. This terrible calamity has demonstated one thing, and that Is that tho great sorrow of our fellow countrymen obliterates geograph ical lines and sectional differences, and makes -us one common km. The churches were full, and the ministers were well browned up, and apparently thoroughly prepared for the task before them. The most marvellous change has taken place In tho Jtev. DeWitt I'ahuage. A few years ago howasllt- llo more than a walking skeleton Every lino lu hfm was hard and angu lar, and though he stands nearly six feet, I doubt if liis weight was 110 pounds when he canio to Brooklyn. Hut all that Is changed now; to all ap pearances he tips tho scale well to the windward of 200 pounds, with grea: probability of a comfortable Increase for somo years to come. He has the cheer ful look of a well fed, happy man, on the most excellent terms with himself aud all the world. His reception was something tremendous. There is noth ing neutral about the Tabernacle con gregation. It makes no difference w hether It Is a picnic or a revival what ever they do they do with a vim that makes tho dry bones rattle. After little periods of absence Doctor lalinage is always at his best. Ho al ways has something to say, but last Sabbath was a red letter day. Every body In tho audience was full of elec tricity, and it was with difficulty they restrained themselves at times, from the most uproarous applause. Speaking of applause, there arc two churches In our sister city where applause Is by no means uncommon, Doctor Talmaao's and Mr. lSeccher's. whenever cither nf the reverend gentlemen makes a good point. There w ere, hand shaking and congratulations rm good looks, and how stout you've grown, &c, Ac; and everybody seemed to feel glad that the period of outing was over. Now we have had onr fun, we must sit down In I sackcloth and ashes for a few weeks, to count the cost. Monday brought a double celebration the opening of the Public Schools and the Labor paiade. In New York and ' llrooklyn 150,000 children were taken from tho streets and securely caged for a "W Ur-iri a day. at least. No won' can express the relief that this Is to thousands rnd thousands of homes, nnd w'hen Iscc these junnlle terrors swarm ing In the sttccts for two long mouths, I often doubt the utility of these long vacations. The churches and the schools nro tho only ones that think of asking for such a long vacation. Bank ers, merchants and peorilo in other pro fessions think themselves fortunate if they can get a couple of weeks. Edi tors aud newspaper men never get a day. Mechanics shut up In close fac tories ten hours a day, summer and wluter never even think of it, or If they do, they see the holiday as Moses saw the Promised hand, a long way off. It will take many weeks of Industrious teaching to undo with the children the evils of this summer holiday. Tho Labor parade was the strongest that has yet been witnessed lu either city. In the two cities they aggregated not far from 30,000. There was one tiling that could not fail to strike the most casual observer, and that was the manner in which tho nlcn were clad The poorest man to bo seen on the line of march was better clad than laborers or citizens of the samo condition in any other part of the world. I did not see a man that did not have good shoes on nis icer, a goon lint on his head and' a good coat on his back, nnd nota man of them but looked as It ho had eaten a good breakfast. It certainly did not look as If they were slaves, down trodden and oppressed, for a moro Inde pendent army I never laid my eyes on Every man In the procession looked abundantly able to take care of himself, and no doubt ho was. Ono thing Is very certain, and that Is that the labor ele mcnt is going to bo a very Important factor In our future elections. In New- York the strength of the labor clement will bo tested In our election for mayor. Mr. Henry George, whose startling propositions onthe land question have set all Europo ablaze, and whose theories find hundreds of thousands of advocates In this country, Is to be the Labor can didate for mayor and It Is very gener ally conceded, that If labor Is to have a candidate, no man can bo found In the ranks of the laboring men worthier to bear their standard to victory or defeat, than Henry George. Thcro Is no ques tion about the man's honesty, but as yet the world only knows him as a writer and speaker; he lias never had any ex perlenco In public life, and has never been in any position that required any exercise whatever of executive ability. There is not an office in the United States which exercises tho despotic power exercised by the Mayors of New York and Brooklyn. Tho President of the United States is compelled to submit to tho Senate tho list of his most trusted advisors. Not a consul, not a postmas ter, above a certain degree, can he ap point without their sanction; but the Mayor of Now York, under our new charter, is as much of a despot as the Empeiorof Iiussia. Ho appoints whom he likes, without question or advice. Under the old system, all appointments had to be confirmed by the Board of Aldermen; but when we reached a point where tho Aldermen wero mostly can didates for the penitentiary or States prison, we thought it much safer to lodgo tho power in the hands of one rascal than a dozen. The experiment is a hazardous one, and ono that will test the suprcmest power of Mr. Georse, If elected. After the labor review was finished, a nice lunch was served up In the llttlo cottage on Union Square. It Is evident that the labor reformers are not Pro hibitionists, for chamragne flowed like water; paid for, I suppose out ot the labor fund. At night the festivities wound up with a general jubilee at the up-lown Parks; everybody appeared to have plenty of money, and everybody had a jolly good time. Asa sort of labor jubilee and jollification It was a grand success, but If it was intended as a pro test of starving labor, down-trodden and oppressed, against the tyranny of capi tal, It was a most conspicuous failure. Oh, what a week we havo had with our yachtsmen. Tho city has been alive with them, and aside from the yachts men, who aro generally gentlemen, the town has swarmed with gamblers. 11 seemed to be a foregone conclusion that the Galatea was. going to be beaten. Among yachting men, I never before saw such unanimity of opinion; I could not find out on what theory they founded tlielr belief, but every man and woman I met said, a week befoio tho race, that the Galatea was going to be beaten, nnd tlio first race on Tuesday was a walk over. The gathering was tremendous. All mo erne saucrs anu steamers wero there, with tho single exception of the famous Atlantic, on wjilch Brooklyn built such mighty hopes, and sho lay dismantled like an old hulk alongside the dock while her companions, of which she was supposed to bo the pride were scudding down to see the great trial between the International cham pions. Every courtesy was shown Lieut Henu and his beautiful boat but fate was against hhn, and that Is all thero Is about It. Ho returns to his country without the cup. hut with the good wishes and respect of every one who has been brought In contnet with him. We often read In modem novels of women In love, living of a broken heart when they have been disappointed; but the boldest romance seldom attempts to place a man In the role of a broken hearted lover; yet a case occurred here this week which lacks no element of sadness or romance. A young Hebrew, the son of wealthy parents, fell madly In love with one of the young girls lu his father's employ, and the girl returned his affection. On both sides the love was fair, puro and honorable, But the girl was a christian, her lover a Jew; he was wealthy and she was poor, but he offered her ills band and heart. The girl reminded him of the difference of their religions; he offered to turn chris tian for her sake. She reminded Jiini of their difference of station and of his father's wrath; he was willing to brave all for her love. The young girl ap pears to have been blest with an im mense amount of common sense, and although she loved him, declared she never would be instrumental in his ruin, and in severing him from his religion and his family; and giving him one last affectlonato embrace, bado him forget her. The young man went to ills home, W rota a lony and r.ff cm Io. ate letter to his mother and sister, also one to Hi young girl he loved so well, and thei retiring to his room blew his brains out,1 'ri. r,l,.

From our Special Correspondent. Wasuisotos, D. C, Sept. IB, 'SC. Mr Editor: Since tho departure of tho President and Mrs. Cleveland upon their Adirondack trip tho White House has bcon thoroughly renovated, mid tho exterior of tho building treated to a fresh coat of paint. The decorations In the East Boom have been completed, and everything is in readiness for putting down the carpets and arranging the furniture. The ptivate apartments throughout tho mansion liayo been re carpctcd, and In many Instances refurn ished. Everything about the premises has been brightened up, and the building will soon bs ready for occupancy. The recent earthquakes In South Caiq llnacoutlnuo to afford the principal topic of discussion, nnd tho evidence of sym pathy felt by tho ood people of tho National Capital for their afflicted neigh bors In Charleston has been shown In a far more substantial manner than In an Idle exchange of words. Not only has the rule prohibiting the collection of.sub scrlptions In the several Government Departments been set aside and declared Inoperative in this case, but the Chiefs of Divisions nnd others In charge of bureaus and rooms have provided them selves with subscription papers for cir culation among tho employees under their immediate charge. Clerks through out tho departments have responded most liberally to these Invitations to subscribe, and a very handsome sum of money has been forwarded to the relief committee In Charleston. The Corcoran Art Gallery which has been closed to the public during the summer has been reopened, and Is moro attractive than ever. A marked Improve ment has been made In the hall of sculp ture by the removal of the drapery which formally shrouded the walls, and the substitution of a rich maroon tint of paint. Several pictures aro being nego tiated for by the trustees, and the proba bilities are that tho gallery will be en riched by tho addition of somo very valuable paintings during tho w Inter. Work In the departments Is progress ing in an entirely satisfactory manner, notwithstanding the fact that many of the chiefs are absent. Claims appropri ated for during tho past session of Con gress are being rapidly disposed of, and the Alabama claims have nearly all been adjusted, and the warrants for the entire 0,000 claims have been signed, and force of clerks In the Treasury Is work ing night and day upon the drafts which will soon bo issued. The shooting of Col. Ellsworth by Capt. James Jackson on the 24th day of May, 1801, whllo in the act of remov Ing the Confederate flag from the Mar shall House In Alexandria, will be re membered as one of tho events which attracted so much attention at the open ing of tho war. This Incident has been recalled by the recent appointment of Miss Amelia Jackson, the daughter of Capt. Jackson, to a position in the Patent Oillce. Lieut. Browncll, of Col. Ells worth's command, and whoso promptly avenged his death, has for several years past been a special oxaminer in the Pension Office. Since the stairway in the Washington Monument has bean repaired there has been a continual rush of people to the ollice for permits to climb to tho top. On Friday last more than seven hundred applications for passes wore received. It is an awful climb, but many ladles undertake It. Two or three of the latter have fainted and had to bo carried down. Anionc the number who ascended tho stairway on Friday was an old gentleman eighty-three years of age. He was told thai he would be exhausted, but stated that it was his birthday and he wanted to celebrate It by a patriotic climb. He made the ascent, but became exhausted when one third of the way back, and had to be carried down. POINTS POLITICAL. Tl Is fashionable, now for political coyotes to pose as political owls. -Chaimeey lllack addressed tho Demo cratic meeting last Monday. The Maine statesman still poses as the great, all-round knocker-out In polities. It is safe to assume that Logan's Joy over the result of tho Malno election won't need a ton welcht to keep it from soaring among tho stars.
