Thk members of the Grand Army of the
Republic repudiated tlio actions Of such
partisans as Falrchlld.Tiitlleanu' company,
at tho U, A. It, cncAnipinent nt St. Louts,
Mo., Krlday Inst. The covert censure of
President Cleveland for vetoing the Indl-
gent l'enslon bill which was embodied In
Falrclilld'a report was rejected by the vet'
ran by an overwhelmlnz majority. This
open set-back to the Fall-child Ilk will put
a stop to much of the blood shirt and
palsy business.
Thk Democratic voters of this county
will dp well to see that the names of Henry
Millet-, C. W. Leutt and Paul Wagner are
on their tickets when they go to vote on
the eighth day of Novembbr. Nominated
for the. respective offices of county conimls
slonsr, .register and recorder and county
auditor, without being "slated" or by aid
of the bosses, they mum cleaily represent
the will of the people. Honest, Intelligent
and capable, they will dispose of their re-
spectlve duties with credit to themselves as
welt as to the whole people of the county,
Irrespective of party. It s In such men as
Messrs. Miller, Lentr and Wagnel that the
'people will find genuine reform an essen'
tlal necessity much needed In this county.
Thk strike of the coal miners In the Le-
high region still continues with no appar
ent sign of abatement. Tho miners who
have home the oppression of the coal oper
ators for so many years are determined In
their demands for an Increase of wages and
will grant no concession until they haye
meted out to them the Justlcethey demand.
On the other hand lh coal operators,
haughty and overbearing, look on In proud
disdain, treating contemptuously the de
mands of an over-worked and half-starved
humanity. The workmen need expect no
mercy from the operators. Kyery device of
tyranny will bo put In force to bring the
men Into subjection and it will only be, af
ter all their efforts have failed, that the
coal operators will concede to labor their
just and honest dues. The miners are
backed by the Knights of Labor In their
fight for right and It the fight Is carried
out upon the principles of Its origination
the coal miners must win, there Is no other
way.
Thk New York Star thusly remarks con
cernlng the political prospect In that State
"Never was the Democracy of New York
more thoroughly united or belter equipped
lor effective campaign work. The inagnl
tude of the Issues of the election are well
understood. The Stale Is to say whether
thecountry shall go forward In the path of
Democratic' reform or relapse Into those
dangerous abuses which the people repudl
ated and rebuked In 1884, By the result
In New York this year will the country
judge the probabilities of the next preslden
tlal contest. It Is, of course, possible that
the Republicans might carry the State now
and yet lose Its vote In the college of pres
idential electors. But the world does not
so estimate the situation. To the general
mind It seems clear that as goes New York
In November, 1887, so will It go next year:
and that as New York shall vote for presi
dential electors, so will be the result of the
national contest. Ii Is not for us to decline
the gage of battle for the sMrmlsh line of
1888. If our opponents choose to place
upon tuo Democracy or Mew York the re
sponsibility ef determining the next Presl
dency in advance, It Is our part to accept
the duty of making good our posltldn as
the Empire State of the Democratic party
with light but determined hearts. It
within our power to elect a majority of the
legislature as well as the State offica rs
spite of all the combinations, tricks and
lavish expenditure that will be employed
against us. It Is only necessary that we
should bring out full Democratic .vote, and
that each Democrat should labor to con
vluce his doubting neighbors of the neces
sity of the trlumbh of our party to the wel
fare of the country and State."
Broadbrim's Hew ml Letter.
Special to the Carbon Advooatk.
For the first three days of the week which
has passed New York financially sat upon
the ragged ed. The clouds looked stormy
forbidding, glylng promised another
UlackTrMayThe Bears had started In
for a flrstclass panic, but just In the nick
of time proyldence and Secretary Falrchlld
came to our assistance and (he eyll day
was postponed for the present at least.
When we speak of Black Friday It Is in
sort of careless, flippant way, for the event
took place so long ago that the new gener
ation of IFall Street men knew little or
nothing about It, and at this time It Is al
most like writing ancleut history; but we
were so near a financial panic this week
that I cannot help calling back the ruin of
that eventful day,
I arrived In the city after a lengthly tour
In the upper portion of the State late the
evening before, and being very tired I did
not get down to Wall Street till nearly
twelve o'clock. By that time the whole
street -.vaa In an uproar; messengers rush
ing hither and tldtber, everybody looking
out ror Himself, and In the race It was the
devil take the hindmost. The Stock Ex
change of fifteen or sixteen years ago Is
net the Stock Exchange of to-day: seats
that rose In the flush times to forty thous
and dollars, could then be bought for five
or six. The dirty and llsreputable gold
room with Its stuffy little gallery and Its
ill-smelling dog pit was then In existence
It has since been torn down and now forms
part of the Stock Exchange. I ran down
New street and Into the gold room to find
pandemonium reigning; as stocks went
up and eyery moment brought new orders
to buy. There were no telephones then
and lew tickers, most of the brokers' and
bankers' business being done by private
messenger. It was Impossible for one un
Initiated to understand a word. The floor
was crowded with men who acted like mani
acs; tney rusned at each other like mad
bulls; they slezed and shoo'c each other vl
olently ; they thrust their fists In each others
faces, and then rushed off to some other
part of the floor to find a new victims-
short, lhlck-setman whose lone hair ell
almost on hit shoulders, Stood In the center
or the pit, bis face was pale as ashes, his
head was thrown back, his sblrt was open
at the throat, he wildly shook a handful of
paper above his head walla the crowd
around him roared and yelled like a pack
of hungry wolves. Tho Stock Exchange
next door was like a madhouse, and It was
Impossible to gel any Intelligence from any
one except that ruin was everywhere. It
was between three and four o'clock when
a wild, excited throng of men came rushing
through Exchange alley with a wboou Ilka
a Um. a r v t j i , i
a band of Comanche Indian,. They were '
looking for Jim Flske and his wlckedpartner
Qould to hang them to the nearest lamp
post; along Broad street, through Wall
street and back through Fearl street to Ex
change Flace the crowdsurged and roared,
Into a carriage; the driver piled his lasli on
but Flske and bis wicked partner had leaped
the affrighted horses nor held his hand till
his precious freight was safe within tho
Erie offices at the Grand Opera Home.
Years have passed slnco then and many of
tho principal actors are either dead or sunk
In hopeless poverty, The man who stood
In the centto of the gold pit that day and
bought a mlllon and eight hundred thou
sand of gold dies In a tunatlq asylum after
enduring the pangs of bitter, biting poverty
for over ten years. Jim Flsk was assassi
nated by the man who now keeps one of
the finest and most splendidly appointed
hotels In the United States, and after
standing twice lu the shadow of the gallows
IS nowlreported to be worth a million. Jim
FIsk's wicked partner Is now realizing the
truth of that excellent old adago. "Vlrtuo
Is Its own reward," and Instead of decorat
ing a lamppost on Broad street In front of
the Stock Exchange, Is now a grandfather
highly respected (by some people), and he
can draw his check for fifty millions at
least. Funny world, Isn't llf
Well, It was just from such a scene that
we were save dlast weed. Our bank vaults
are pretty well depleted, many millions
of dollars having been sent to the West and
South. Tltien the great crops of the nation
are to be moved, Wall street Is always
called upon to pay the freight bills. The
Bears watched the chance and jumped In,
but Uncle Samuel helped us out and we are
grateful. Money, however, Is llght,awful
tight, but If we can tide matters over for
sixty days we are tolerably safe for another
year.
While New York Is not supposed to be
the most virtuous place on the planet, there
Is something about the atmosphere of
Brooklyn that Is very malarious to clergy
men; not that I would haye ll understood
that Brooklyn Is In anywise destitute of
Christian ministers who do their Master's
work and do It well, for It Is not so. With
men like Dr. Storrs, Dr. John Hall, Dr,
Talmage,Dr. Berhend aud many otherablo
and upright Christian ministers. The
church itself Is entirely safe, but Brooklyn
has proved a nicTK noiu to dozens of weak
er disciples who came there with a tolerably
fair reputation but left It without any char
acter whatever. Last week there were no
less than three ecclesiastical trials for mor
al tergiversation of a very heinous charac
ter. In one case a young minister came to
Brooklyn from a country church which he
had succeeded In building up from a very
small and poor congregation to one of the
foremost In that district, His evaujteltcal
work gave golden promise and he was
looked up to with reverence and affection
by old and young. He had a most estlma
ble wife and an Interesting family. During
a revlyal in the village he became dread
fully enamoured of a youthful orphan In
bis congregation, whose father had left her
considerable property. Under pretense of
-settling her estate, he succeeded in getting
a fatal Influence over her which led the
poor girl to'her ruin. Fully aware of bis
domestic relations, and 05 the most friend
ly terms with his wife, she appears to have
surrendered herself entirely to this clerical
Villain, What rendered the case more
shocking, he induced two members of his
congregation, a lady and gentleman, to as
slst him lu bis Illicit meetings. The lady
was a bosom friend of the unfortunate vic
tim, and the young man was a confidant of
the clergyman and be aided him In his ne
farious meetlmrs under the promise of be
ing assisted to the ministry. Unique let-
ten have been published on various sub
jects sacred and profane, but hardly any
thing can be found In literature, ancient or
modern, that will compare with the effus
ions of this canting rascal. He writes to
his friend Ilaryey to arrange a clandestine
Interview with his victim and hopes that
the Lord may prosper him In bis undertak,
lug, and Invokes a blessing on his friend
for performing the nefarious serrlce. He
promises to assist him to become a Chris
tian minister, and bids him be virtuous and
asks to be remembered in his prayers, and
at the same lime begs his assistance in the
most Infamous of crimes, while plotting the
ruin of his ylcliin. The proofs of his in
famy were so complete that he had not the
cheek to appear before the examining board
but tendered his resignation, which, to the
shame of the church, was accepted Instead!
of his summary dismissal
The other two cases are not quite so bad
but bad enough In all conscience, though
neither of the offenders have been yet con
victed. While on this subject I am re
minded of the case of the Reverend Howard
Carroll whose death I noticed a few weeks
ago. Some years ago he was driven from
Brooklyn In disgrace and died In exile In
the far west. In the height of his prosper
ity bis congregation erected for him a yery
beautiful church In one of the most delight
ful situations In Brooklyn. It was magni
ficently arranged Inside, had a grand organ,
stained glass windows and attached to the
church was an elegant parsonage, beautl
fully furnished with everything that the
heart of a reasonable man could desire
When the minister's offenses became flagr
ant the church divided, one party sustain
ing him and the other determined to drive
Mm out. The fight was long and bitter.
but at last he vacated bis pulpit after one
ef the most bitter and scathing sermons
ever preached In Brooklyn. Another was
called to fill his placo, a most worthy man
anu an excellent preacher, but a curse
seemed to rest upon the church; the con
gregatlon struggled against fate; they could
not pay the Interest on the mortgage, and
a few mouths ago It wai sold to the Scottish
Rite Masons and was dedicated with most
Imposing ceremonies on Saturday. The
eyent brought together the most brilliant
assemblage of masons ever seen In Brook
lyn, and It will long be" remembered as
red letter day by the brothren of the mystic
tie.
Sunday was quite a busy and Interesting
day. Tho opening of thanew Arlon Hall
which began on Saturday night lasted all
day bunday and well Iuto Monday morning.
It was to all Intents and purposes a big
time; oceans of lager.rlvers of Rhine wine,
whole lakes of champagne and a supper or
dinner, I don't know which to call It. Oh
myl the man who thinks that our German
fellow-clllzens amuse themselves with saur
kraut and pretzels should have seen those
tables; they fairly groaned beneath the load
of good things. The Germans have got the
noblest music hall in New York, and they
are just the boys to enjoy It.
The appearance of George Francis Train
on the lecture platform after ten years' of
silence brought all tho anarchists and fire
eaters in New York together. When
George Francis offend to lead the new
revolution If the anarchists at Chicago were
bung, Herr Most and the rest of the crew
grew wild. At another Anarchist meeting
George Block.supposed to be a baker.called
down blessings on the hand that threw the
----'-"""" u i
bomb at Chicago, Thl. wu too much for J
some of the audience, so they hissed him
and retired from the hall. I know this
Block for a foul-mouthed braggart whose
business for the past ten years lias been to
get up strikes and foment discontent among
the working classes. I doubt very much it
he ever did an honest day's work In his
life, nor perhaps he will not till he lands In
the States Prison Penitentiary.
Antt-Poverly makes, a good showing, and
objecting to landlords and rent succeeded
In paying two hundred dollars every Sunday
night tor a place to hold their meetings In.
They are going to haye a monster picnic or

OUR PHILADELPHIA LETTER.
Pmi.ADEt.PHiA, Pa., Oct. 6,87,
With tbo attending excitement and curi
osity pertaining to the constitutional cen
tennial festivities having passed away Phil
adelphia people turned their attention more
or less Into the political whirl of 1887.
Philadelphia is essentially a city of political
bosses and autocrats. This is particularly
exemplified In the majority party which Is
endeavoring to Inflict upon the Cty of
Brotherly Loye a set of officials who have
a record for subseryancy-and political pros
tltutlon unsurpassed. To understand and
fully realize this one need only be a close
observer of the way party machinery Is used
As an effective Instrument to bridle and
overrldo the desires and wishes of good and
honest citizens. W. R. Lcods, a "hall fel
low well met," the Republican candidate
for Sheriff, Is a boss and has been a boss of
long standing; he pre-eminently represents
the most vicious features of that political
system of making nominations and utiliz
ing public offices for Individual aggrandize
ment and gain. A rule by which men are
usually judged is by their past actions ;thus
weighed in the balance, this boss candidate
for sheriff is found wanting, for he has
filled the same office before and during his
term of office the officials with which he
was surrounded were but a band of extor
tionate robbers and blackmailers. No citi
zen could transact any business under the
Leeds' regime unless be was politoly and
at times rudely Informed "Stand and de
liver." These facts have not been forgot
ten by the indulgent citizens of Philadel
phia, and Leeds after November 8th may
realize the advice given him before his
nomination by prominent leaders and
friends that he would be defeated. This
candidacy Is recognized as the Incomatlon
of old methods, corruption and political
prostitution; it Is the same as that which a
few years ago aroused the tax-payers and
from which they sprung the coraniltte of
One Hundred who scattered bosses,
henchmen and boss tactics In all directions.
The spirit of this citizens movement jdirect
ed by leading Republican business men, Is
vitalizing and will make Itself felt In the
contest as against Leeds. Unless trades
and bargains with corrupt Democratic
leaders for the delivery of purchasable yotes
In their control to Leeds will bo consum
mated he will he defeated by the good citi
zens of Philadelphia; such a defeat will
mean much to the taxpayers for it will be
notice to these arrogant leaders that al
though by corruption and political machin
ery unworthy men can be nominated they
can not.be elected; that honest govern
mentthat office is a public trust Is of
much more Importance than party suprem
acy to citizens' lntectlon of party bias,
The Democrats have wisely availed them
selves of the opportunity offered by nomin
ating a ticket of men of irreproachable
character and standing. Tin Democratic
nominee for sheriff is the exact antithesis
of Leeds. Cbas. H. Krurabbaar has served
the people faithfully and well, ne lias
been a reformer in politics ever since he has
been actiye In the science of government;
as a member of council and city commis
sioner, his record is clear and spotless. To
each of these positions he was elected by
Republican citizens, not Republican poli
ticians, and it ail calculations are not a
miss the same forces will place him In the
sheriff's office of Philadelphia. Such a re
sult Is anticipated and eyery manifestation
of public comment and action tends to con
firm It. Democratic aud Republican poll
tlclans do not differ lu any essential as to
encompassing and making nominations,
Those In both parties are mainly corrupt
and In politics for what Is "In It." The
only difference Is that the Republicans are
in the major party and thereby If not re
proved by citizens movements, the main
sharers of plunder,
The week Just closed was one of tremen
dous activity amongst Democratic workers,
ieaaers anu citizens. The citizens as a re
suit of their activity haye fared well as to a
ticket. It Is composed of good clean men
Krumbhaar, Dechert and Sensenderfer
challenge the scrutiny of all men. They
are cican rename men and as to the elec
tion three of them have more than even'
chances. The bone of contention was the
commlsslonershlp. The nominee Is sure of
an election. Two candidates Peter Mou
roe and John Paul Jones Sensenderfer
contested for the prize; the latter bagged
the game; this fight was a hot one; It was
fought with much bitterness; every device,
mm unscrupulous tactic was
brought into play; frauds on either side
were perpetrated without fear or favor-
The primary elections for commissioner
were of the same character as Republican"
primaries usually are. The machine can
dldato usually wins; there were no less than
twenty-one fraudulent delegates, delegates
that were not elected in this convention;
these were about evenly divided between
the two candidates. The result fraudu-
lant result was accomplished In the ward
affected by the party organization beine In
the hands of men who favored either one
or the other candidate. The party rules
give the organization absolute control of
saying who Is or who Is not. There Is no
appeal from such a decision; such rules are
a baneful curse. The majority does not
rule, and unscrupulous men who may be lu
control of party organization can reader
any result desired. Such Is popular gov
ernment. Besides this absolute power un
uoi mo iu, uiiraaryeieciions arenot con-
ducted In XU glov. st,l. Fprln.tancls
der the rules, primary elections are not con-

friend, who Inquired as to our preference--
hot haying any he was escorted -Into i

similar kind, anxiously Inquired what they

who was averse to tho favored candidate
wodld bo liable to get oue of these baseball

that opposition was exterminated, uncli la
representation and popular government.
