One week ago we suggested tlio name of Hon. William M. Iiapsticr, of Mauch C hunk, at a strong and suitable candidate fbr Judge of llio Supreme Court, en tbc Democratic ticket. .Judging from tlio fav orable reports tliat have readied us from different parts of the State we now feel confident that our Idea w as ulse and poli tic. In this connection ve desire to call attention to a few tein&rks mnilo the other day by an able and UistUiauisieil Philadel phia lawyer In relation to Mr. ltapsbc? candidacy., llo said: "I remember Air. "Hapsbcr well, from his brilliant ami elo quent speecliee lu the House of Iteiircien 41 tatlvcs ten years ago. In that Bedlam "of confusion silence was restored when " ever he Arose to speak. Of course, 'every "man that amounts to anything, has his "enemies, aud jou will no doubt now and "then hear eomcbtio say, that Mr. Ilap " shef is not well enough known to be a "successful candidate for that high olllce. " This fact instead of being an clcmeut of " wvakuess will, I believe, prove to be his "greatest strength, for the reason that If "(the pa,ryJo"u1dflpuiinattbe Democrat. " Ic lawyer' telipover' Ins may be) having " the greatest 'reputation In Pennsvlvanla, he would probably be defeated by a large "majority. .Hlsfireat reputation would be "his weakness. To Illustrate: Who knew " anything Tib'Snt President Cleveland and "Kx-Jov. Pattlsdn eight years ago out "slde of their own election districts? And "yet how many Illustrious Democratic " statesmen with nuruxATioNS, were de " f eatcd before Cleveland and Pattlson w ere " elected? Yet tliey made useful and suc- " cessf ul public men. No ddnlit both of " them baye- learned a great deal since they " came Into, public prominence. I know " Mr. ltapsher to be a sensible and level " headed man, and be would no doubt Iiim- " self freely admit that there Is much to be "learned and experienced which he does " not yet know. But I am satisfied ho has "the brain and perception to Oil a seat on " the Supreme Bench, with credit. But "his ability will hardly be called In queS' "tloi." We-deslre to-cmphaslzc the foregolns re marks by adding tint- Mr. Rapshcr never represented a corporation In any case, In court or out of court. This fact you may mark down In your diary because It Is such a rare, thing. He was always on the side of the people, and mostly with the poor people at that, because after a large and active practice of nearly twenty years, he remains poor himself. Let us submit one more suggestion, perhaps you will like' it, Wouldn't It be a good and sad: Idea to put at least one Judge on the Supreme Bench, whoso heart and sympathies are with the common people? On the other hand. If you believe that the people of this Commonwealth are fully determined that no man, no matter how worthy he may be, can ever be, or should ever be, elected to a scat on the Supreme Bench, unless he has first been a sallsfactoiy lawyer for "The Standard Oil Company" or tho "Pennsyl vania Railroad Company" and got men and a lira heputation, then, ccilainly, yon will join hi with the hue and cry of monopolistic power, and say that Mr. ltap sher Is not rich enough, and not big enough for, that office, but go right straight ahead and put corporation lawyers on the Supreme Bench, and then afterwards wo:;m:it why It Is that tlio law is so much in favor of corporations. Wo wish tho majority of tho people -vould unnersinnu mis, auu aci ami voio accoru lngly. 'hy not2 Tuk constitutionality of High Li sense Is to be tested by tlie State Liquor League. It would be top.bad if there be found a flat? In it after' all tho wrangling and time lost by our enterprising leglsla Lars. is & recent speech in New Orleans, Jef ferson Davis soldi "United you are, and if the Union Is ever to be broken let tbc other side break it. The truths we fought for shall not eneourace youeverto light again but keep your word In good or evlL" This manifestation of Jeff Davis' complete resignation, to tho existing order of thin will be a grievous disappointment to the gallant army of bloody-shlrt wavers in the North. Ir the number of hotels and saloons now open and running in this place under the older license system take cut the new $1G0 Ucenso- ue st year, $900 will revert to tho borough treasury. This will allow of a tc ductlon lu the tax. rate or permit of a. mmv ber of very important and necessary Im proyeaieiits for Instance, the construction of a sewer and the macadanilzatton of Bank street. Of course, our borou authorities will consider this matter and act wisely.. DECOHATIONDAY OBSERVE IT.

Where Broadway meets It on' the right Is the BUlto of the actors, and here, lounging under the shadow of tho Morton' House, through the summer's heat ami the winter's celd, plenty of them are Always to bo found. They vary fn magnllnde and respectability like the members of other callings,. and there are more grades amongst Ihrni than there arc castes lu India. Like their namesakes lit the heavens there are stars of different magnitudes; probably a more Intelligible classification would bo planets and Used stars, understanding always that there are planets on the stage t?ho differ as much in calibre as Jupiter differs from Mercury. Great stars never hang around here, if seen In the classic precincts of the Morton House, It Is only for a short time, and to keep an appointment with some manager. But smug comedians, clean shaven and often seedy, aro quite abund ant; and tragic, solemn looking gentlemen Ilh frock coats buttoned to the chin to conceal their tolled linen are by no means uncommon. As a rule all the actors en gaged in the Metropolitan theaters are an exceedingly well dressed and comfortable looking lot of people; as well they may be, for the average of Metropolitan salaries Is high, enabling the members of the theaUl cal profession to live in comfort and lux ury. The leading man of a first class theater docs not feel railed upon to uotlco any of the junior members of the profes slon, If ho meets them in tho street; and a member of the ballet, though possibly she might have .known her- for yean, would never cipect to be noticed by tho leading laity In public On Union Square arc also number of tho best known theatrical agencies and professional costttmers, shoe makers and tailors, who reap a good harvest when business Is good. Immediately In front of the Union Square theater Is an equestrian statue of Washing ton, which on Decoration Day and other national holidays is an object of special at tention. Many yars ago, when Ulilon Square was a quiet old place, where gentle men built their houses for the sake of en joying a breath of purs country air, a most conspicuous feature of that surhurban re ttcat was the magnificent mansion of Judge Hooseyelt. The Judge represented a strain of the oldest and bluest blood on Manhat tan Island, and was an aristocrat of the first water In all that that Implies. When the Square was being fixed up, committee of patriotic citizens resolved that the proper thing to do, would be to place a statue of tho Father of his country, at the head of New York's noblest thor oughfare. The different property holders about tho Square were waited on, mid sat isfactory subscriptions were obtained, and at last they called on Judge Koosevclt thinking that the liberal contributions of his neighbors would have n good effect on the Judao's subscription, for there was no denying It, that the Judge was remarkably close-fisted. The spokesman of tho partv was an eminent banker, and the committee was ushered into tho Judgo's drawing room. The spokesman advanced and said "Judge Roosevelt, wo have been requested by a number of your fellow citizens to call on to ask you for a subscription for' the purpose of erecting a statue to the Father of his country, which wo propose to set up directly In front of your house. It's a noblerause. Now. Judge, how much Mill you give?" "Not a:cent, sir; not a cent, said the Judge, rising from his scat; "I don,'t want any statue raised to the Father of my country, sir. I can remember him without any statue; I won'tgive a ccnt;no, sir; not n. cent." Tho committee rose in Indignation, and the chairman advanced to Judge Roosevelt and said, "so you won' give a cent;" the Judge replied, "no, sir; won't." "Why, may I ask?" said the chairman. "Because," said the Judge "I've got the Father of my countiyen shilned in my heart." "Then, allqw m to tell you, Judgo Roosevelt, you've got the Father of. your country in a tight place," and the committee Instantly with drew. Tho statue was erected without the aid of Judge Reosevelt, but as a punish ment for his meanness they erected It on the other side of the square. Between Broadway and University Tlaco is or was The Malson d'Or" the House of Gold What visions of splendor long since van Ished, pass in review beforo me; and what a long list of Fortune's fools went down to ruin within Its gilded halls I It was in the Jays of I lie old Tweed ring, when fortunes were squandered In a day, and oftentimes by public robbery, made in an hour. The extravagant tastes of theso Sybarites had outgrown Dclmonlco's Austiueill's. and their wildest dreams of luxury were to be realized In this golden palace. Tweed had leased tlio Metropolitan Hotel, and furn Ishing It magnificently, proposing to make it a sort of political headquarters; but at "The Malsou d'Or," grand prlvato suppers Were to be given, and all the fast flyers an high steppers were expected to make It ihclr headquarters. The hopes of Its founders wero neycr re allied; a curse seomed to rest upon It from the start, card sharps and swindlers clung to It like the shirt of Nessus, ami the taint of moral leprosy dragged It down to ruin In after years It was occupied for various purposes, but tho evil taint of its birth fol lowed it like a witch's curse; but tbe fates seem to bo propitiated at last, it Is now opened as a cheap restaurant, and with Its dedication to the wants of tho million, the curse seems to have passed away. iue wiiumiu ircscocs are sun to uo seen on tho celllngs'and walls, but Instead of the rich feasts of the past, when fountains ran champagne; when lu mid winter tho al .vas heavy with tho perfume of tho rarest (lowers, and tho land, sea ami sky were ransacked to furnish the tables, may now be seen codfish balls, ten cents; coffeo and tea, five; flannel calces, ten cents; and up pie dumpling the samo; a toothsome steak for a quarter; chops, ditto, ditto, and all tho pork and beans that you can comfotta bly put under your belt for a couple of niche's . I was thero when the Malson d'Or opened its magnificent portals long years ago. A good many of tho crow who drank beer and tuld queer stories at PlafTs took advantage of the occasion to get a square meal and u square drink, and I recollect some of thoni who for days after had their pockets stuffed full of the finest cigars. It was a great night, and every freo to siuMiiEr.s or Tin: muss. The. other day I stepped In there again I was it stranger among strangers. A plate i)t fish balls, some flannel cakes and a cup of coffee tin olvcd the outlay of a quarter humble but honest; not diamonds, chain pagtie, quail on toast, l'ATU in: rots on ah, bankruptcy and exilo; but, sulllclent for the day, &u. Don't suppose for a moment that because the charges are ten and five cents, that "The House of Gold" Is frc quented only by tho rlll-raff. Oh, by no .means' Ladles J 11 silks and satins and fine IflCCS OCCUUV tbll reterrcd enclulvel for - . them, and after a luxurious feast they walk up to the cashier's desk with a check for fifteen cents. ItJooks hopeful, this cheap dairy In tho center of our most fashionable quarter, where a well -dressed and well bred lady 4s not ashamed to save her money even her htubaiid lias to earn IL Henry George, the apostle of land reform and the prophet of the new mllleneluiu, Is busily engaged with Doctor McGlyun in the formation of an Anti-poverty Society. It Is hardly necessary to say that my best Ishes go with tliem. I should particular ly like tho olllce of treasurer if the thing goes n as It started last Sunday night. I certain!) could see my way to daylight ns far as the treasurer was concerned, If I had to found my first colony In Canada. To- ards the close of the meeting the audi ence began pitching dollars, Halts anil quarters on lira Blagc, and the result of the liver shower was four hundred dollars. Not a bad beginning for antl-poyerty, but I have not yet heard that any iioor man, ex cept Heury George, has been helped by the contribution, though reserved teats cost from 23 cents to a dollar; not bad for pov erty. It looks now as if there was going to be serious division In tlie Labor Party. An archy represents a faction that will act In dependently and cannot ho overlooked. Henry George represents a distinct party looking to a uaUonal organization, tlie final goal ot which Is the White House. Then comes the organization of the Knights of Labor, which, in the last municipal battle gave Mr. Gcorgo wliatcver prominence he has to-dxy. Will they rally around him again? or will labor relegate him liack to a subordinate place and call Johtiwlnton to the front? Tho mystery is, uliy did tho labor-vote pass John Swlnton by and take up Henry George? Heilry George- wrote Progress and Poverty." What of It? John Swlnton said all you can Cud in 'Progress and Poverty" .years and years ago; aye, and said It better than it has been said before or since. A man of edu cation, of large brain and varied accuin plishiucnts, and a reformer of the John the Baptist cast, who, if needful, could go clad n skins and feed ou locusts and wild honey. Clear and distinct is tho army of the Knights of Labor with Mr. Powderly as the leader, but whose political existence is hourly threatened by- rebellious factions who hate and fear him. It Is therefore pretty certain that in New York at least, labor will not enter as a unit Into our next political fight. The methods of the Knights in conducting their fights have already awakened bitter antagonisms which are crystallrlng alf the outside elements of op position into a national organization. There are thousands of honest hard working men who do not belong to the Knights of Labor, and who do not want to belong to them, who will not quietly -stand by and see themselves stamped with In famy, because they refuse to join their As sociation. As soon as the leader can be found these thousands will form an As sociation of their own, the corner-stone of which shall be the Independence of the worktngman, and the absolute right to sell his labor when and where ho will to the highest bidder. A singular feature In tho trial of Jake Sharp, which is now approaching, is the fact that the railroad he laid down by sucl infamous means, and which sent three al dermen to prison and seven or eight Into exile, and which may cost Mr. Sharp his liberty for many years to come, Is a public benefit which no man in New York would willingly have removed, and which pays greatei revenue to tho city than all the oth er railroads put together. The city has profited by Jacob's villainy immensely, if villainy thero was; but whether It did or whether It did not, It proposes to make Jacob pay the piper. Biioaduiiim, PRoniniTloi3TS don't like the high li cense law and for that matter neither does tho average saloon keeper. John P. StJoiix it is said wears white clothes, collar, necktle3 and high hat.
