IN AN ADDRESS BEKOItK A OATHEltlNO
of Intellectual-ladles and gentlemen, repre
senting tho common school system of this
county, Prof. J. Morris Roberts, of the
public schools here, paid the following
glowing tributo to tho independent pruss:
"The Press Is a powerful agent in educat
ing the people. An Independent and non
partlzan press has done much to overthrow
bosslsm and arouse the manly independence
of the masses. It Is doing a noblo work In
purifying the political atmosphere and
relegating demagogues and boodlcrs to
private life and to tho penitentiary, and
demanding virtue, honesty and fidelity as
tho right standard of true citizenship."
The yotku8 of mis nonounii, inde
pendent of party, should act wisely, impar
tially and judiciously in tho election of
lewn officials. There are numerous Im
provements to be made improvements of
necessity, such as tho macadamtzation of
Bank street and the proper qradlng of all
the other thoroughfares. That these mat
ters have been disregarded In the pasi
there can he no denying, tho facts are too
evident, they stand out pre-eminently and
assert their preponderance in tho high taxes
loyiod upon tho people. This evident will
ful disregard for the pcoplo's Interests, it
can be construed as nothing else, Is obnox
ious to our taxpayers and they ask for a
reform. They are justified in this.
THB RIOT AT SlIENANDOAtI LAST Flll-
day was an unfortunato affair for tho strik
ers. Tho Reading railroad strlko was a
multitudinous blunder, but the affair at
Shenandoah Js to bo more lamented than
any difficulty that has yet presented Itself.
When men so far forget themselves as to
facomo disturbers of the peace and commit
violent depredations, Imperiling life and
property, the proper authorities must be
called on for protection. It was this same
disregard for law and society that made
famous the Chicago Ilaymarket riot and
resulted In the final hanging of five anarch
ists. There should be no moro of this.
Calm reasoning should tako tho place of
passionate and violent discussion. It will
pay better In tho'ond.
The New York Sun is willing to
resort to almost anything In order to defeat
Cleveland for a re-nomlnation. The Sun's
Utest racket Is that of booming Governor
mil; the latter Individual Is a far-scelngand
critical observer, however, and it is doubt
ful, at this time, whether ho would allow
bis name to go before the convention.
Hill is an apt pupil of the Tildcn school a
Democrat for Democratic purposes, and
would undoubtedly be a strong man with
the more radical element of his party. Of
him Tilden predicted great things; certain
It Is, that as a politician he has no equal,
his election as Governor over Davenport,
clearly testifies this; however as a states
man, ho Is not the equal of Randall or docs
he compare well with lesser lights In the
party. But the governor Is a born leader
and that's what counts.
On the local page of to-dat'h Ad
vocate will be found a very interesting ar
ticle on "Tariff and Surplus" by "A Dem-
crat," who speaks conservatively upon
this all-absorblnc auestion of state and na.
tlonai agitation. Wo have always boen a
strong champion of Revenue Reform, not
on the confusing and misleading basis of
free trado, that confounds, demoralizes and
disrupts, but on tho system of plain, prac
tical and legitimate reduction of tariff rales
en such articles as Immediately affect the
living of the poor. For this reason we
specially commend to our readers the attlclc
In to-day's papor. Read and digest care
fully, there is no confusing of Ideas, no
superficial argument, no bamboozling of
facts, but clear, logical, everyday reasoning
that will prove refreshing to pronounced
free-traders of tho Scott-MIUs school.
The follow-ino editorial from Sat-
urday's Philadelphia Ledger Is 60 pointed
and truthful that It should bo carefully
read and studied by every workingman of
the land: "Again the poor fellows ordered
out on strike In the anthracite mining re
gion are getting the usual pledges of "mor
al" and "financial aid" from assemblies of
Knights of Labor and from unions. Such
resolves are the very cheapest kind of busi
ness that comes before such meetings.
They are framed without consideration and
passed without thought certainly with but
very little purposes to make tho promises
good. Tl'henever did the money promised
and pledged In support of a strike come up
to the requirements of the situation? When
was tbero a long strike without strong and
loud protests over tho disappointment from
failure ot tho fundi? Last week an Impos
Ing delegation of the strike leaders went to
Baltimore and a collection was made at a
meeting there. Quite a display was made
of the fact that $500 were collected. That
was about two (2) cents a head for the
striking miners In tho Schuylkill and
Sbamokln regions. Affair1 , it Is displayed
that f 3.500 have been received in the "last
few days" by the committee that Is, in
the last eeyen days. That sum would
make about fourteen cents a head for each
of the strikers, or about two (2) cents a day
per head. And this Is to support the strik
ers' families, too. It Is a marvel that sen
slble men permit themselves to bo deceived
by pledges and promises ot "financial aid"
tfeat romi to just next to nothing like
tkat"
iin's M York Letter.
Special to tho Camion Advocatk.
Was It a plot? That Is what wo aro now
asking ourselves- after reflecting on tho
revelations of the dead "Whyo" chief who
was hung last week.
A llttlo over year ago New York was
startled from Its prosprlcty by the intellig
ence, that Thomas Patrick Walsh of the
Sixth H'ard, otherwise known as "Fatty"
by his Intimates, had received at the hands
of tho retiring Mayor, the nppolntmcnt of
warden of the Tombs. If lio'had been
appointed chaplain of Congress, or superin
tendent of the Young Men's Christian
Association, or trustee ot tho Board of
Forolfn Missions, wo would have accepted
It without winking, but when It caino to
placing a man In charge of our criminals
who had been associated with them the
greater portion of his life. It was n matter
of grayo consideration.
Fatty Walsh was raised In tho Sixth
Ward, which is tho great criminal ward of
the city. Whiskey was his business and at
one tlmo gambling his profession, for . this
bo was Indicted and, until a short tlmo ago.
theso Indictments were pigeon holed In
tho District Attorney. The man's whole
life was unsavory and disreputable, but
singularly enough, his claims to official
preferment had been endorsed by no less a
person than Abraham S. Hewitt, the pre
sent Mayor, and the endorsement of Mr.
Hewitt went far to securing his confirma
tion. Ndw comes tho singular feature of
this appointment. James Finn had been
warden of the Tombs for fifteen years, and
Finn had, all things considered, conducted
his department fairly and honestly, bu
without rhyme or reason Mr. Finn was
summarily put out and Fatty Walsh was
put In his place. At tho tlmo tho change
was made Danny Drlscoll was in the
Tombs under sentence of death. Dannv
had been a power In tho Sixth Ward, and
he carried six leaden balls in his body,
trophies which proclaimed his superiority
over tho common tough. On election day
when his frlond Fatty Walsh was running
for Alderman, Danny put in his fine work
with tho bummers of the lodging-houses
on the Bowery, Chatham Square and Pell
street, he marshalled the Whyos from
Baxter street and tho Flye Points and
Paddy Diver was sent to tho wall. But In
an oyil hour Danny Drlscoll came to
grief and the law said that the gallows was
his doom.
As long as James Finn was In charge
there was little prospect of escape for Dan
ny. Then camn the appointment of Fatty
Walsh. Why did Abraham S. Herwlt rec
ommend him? Mr. Herwltt is an honest
man; be has risen by his own personal ef
fort from tho,Vf ry lowest cstato known to
our Republic. Ho Is the, son-in-law of the
late Peter Cooper of hlessed memory; the
man who did not wait for death to summon
him before he bestowed his fortune to
bless humanity, but who realized tho bless
ing of his work for twenty years before he
died, and about whoso name clusters and
twines the holiest benediction. In all this
great city no namcso honored and so lovrd.
Just before his death I haye seen him
drive down Broadway In his old worn bug
gy when it wa3 crowded with vehicles,
when ponderous omnibuses and hugedrays
turned Into the gutter to glvo him tho right
of way as If he had been a king. A queer,
quaint old figure was he, but no king on
his throne over received more loyal defer
ence from the common pcoplu than lie.
Why did his son-in-law endorse Fattv
Walsh? "That's politics," sajs Mr. Crcgan.
Tha County Democracy and Tammany
Hall were pretty evenly balanced. Fatty
Walsh proclaimed for tho County Democ
racy and Paddy Diver for Tammany Hall.
The Sixth ward was an important factor
in the 6glit. It was really the balance of
power. Fatty Walsh demonstrated his
power to carry tho ward over Paddy Diver,
but as a reward for his scrv co he claimed
the wardenshlp of tho Tcmbs. Jfhy that
particular place of al! ottiers under tho city
government? His old friend and compan
ion Danny Drlscoll was there under sen
tence of death. Mr. Drlscoll, though under
sentence of death enjoyed many prlvalegcs
not accorded to less distinguished prisoners
his wife carried a key to his cell in her
pocket, and let herself in and out whenever
she pleased; and when Fatty Walsh was
installed, Danny Drlscoll had hopes of
more cxtonded privileges than ho had en
joyed under Warden Finn, Instead of which
the key to Danny's cell was taken away
from his wife, and when he had almost suc
ceeded In escaping he was detected andstop
ped, and shortly after ho was discovered
In an attempt to assassinate his old friend,
and then came the expose at the foot of the
gallows, where ho accuses Warden Jl'alsh
of the most unheard of barbarity. No one
supposes that his treatment was at all dif
ferent from that of any other prisoner tin
der scntenco of death. The question now
Is, was the appointment of Fatty Walsh as
warden of tho Tombs made by tho dead
Whyo's influence, tho consideration being
that Danny was to bo allowed to got away.
Drlscoll kept his part of the compact did
Fatty keep his that's tho question?
What's tha use of giving warning to
fools? Only a couplo of weeks ago I gayo
tho history of the green goods swindle, and
this week It Is Ashbury Hamilton Perkins
of Lincoln county, South Carolina, a coun
ty commissioner and a church-meinbar; he
came on hero to buy $1,000 In counterfeit
money with $100 in greenbacks. The
counterfeits were so good that ho Intended
shoving thorn off on his unsuspecting
neighbors, but Instead of. the counterfeit
money ho expected, ho got nothing but
four bundles of green paper, with a bill on
the top of each bundle; besides this ho got
arrested and exposed as the meanest kind
of a swindler, who was willing to rob his
unsuspecting friends and after being kicked
out of court with a rebuke from the judge,
be goes back to South Carolina, a ruined
man. But how about the green goods
swindler? Oh 1 he's all right. He had on
his person when captured just after be had
swiiiuisu Jir. iVBnuury rcrmns tsiw. Kour
hundred of this was Perkins money. It
was all turned oyer to tho property clerk of
the polico court. Tho swindler was dls
charged as It was not shown that he was
dealing In counterfeit money, and he at
once applied for $102 of bis money; an J as
there was only $100 In dispute, it was
banded over to him, but when Farmer
Perkins went tor the other $400, It was to-
fused him on the ground that lie must
proye that It was the identical $400 that ho
gave tho swindler. This makes two of the
green goods people that have slipped
through the meshes ot the law this wesk;
'n fact It seems to be, according to the lat
est "legal Interpretation, a very eafo and
profitable business, except when the oper
ator gets a customer like the one Bill Dayls
got from Texas, who takes off tho top ot
his bead.
A very nlco divorce case Is now- before'
the courts which Involves a very fuuny
! question. Two years ago Fauny Ilarrowjti
was engaged to Leopold l'lncm. .vry-
thing was got ready for the wedding, but
when tho hour arrived, tho gallant Pincus
was not to be found, and tho guests were
abou- to bo disappointed. Nathan Golgcr
stepped forward and offered to act as proxy
for tho absent lover. Fanny was nothing
loth, and Mr. Gelger nliswcrln;: for his
friend Leopold Pincus, went through the
wedding ceremony, Ills poitlon of It end
ed at the altar, and ho went ono way, and
tho now mado bildo went tho other. After
a time tho truant lover turned up and learn
ing for the first tlmo that hu had been
married oyer seven months, accepted the
eituntlon like a senslblo man and set up
housekeeping with his wife; but in a little
tlmo doubts aroso as to whether Fancy was
Mrs. Gelger or Mrs Pincus, nnd the deci
sions of the lawbooks were largely In favor
of Gelger. It tho meantime, however, an
heir had been horn to the house of Pincus,
and Gelger even If forced to tako Fanny
did not caro about shouldering any respon
sibility In which he had no collateral In
terest. The courts are now asked to annul
the poxy marriage nlth Gelger, and as the
eyidenco Is tanglblo that Fanny Is now Hy
ing with Pincus, there Is no doubt that
Gelgercould get a divorce If ho wanted It,
but he has not applied for one. and Fanny
cannot get a dlyorcc unless sho can show
that Gelger has mtsbenaved himself, which
it does not appear ho has done. J low the
courts will dccldo I don't know, but It Is
pretty evident that though proxy-marriages
may boa good thing for tho Ishkles and
Whiskies of Poland and Russia, they will
not do fcjr the atmosphere of New York,
even though flayoied with Cavicre, Saur
Krout and Vodky.
The Hon. Allen Thorndyko Rico favored
us this week with an account of his meet
ing with the lato Mike Cregan or. tho cc
of tho last election, Wo haye always sup
posed that political success was problem
atical; Mr. Crcgati proposed to make It n
mathematical certainty. There arc just so
many Democrats and Republicans who arc
bound to voto their tick ts, and there Is tho
floating vote that Is In tho market to he
bought. Now, multiply that voto by five
and put the money In tho hands of a trust
worthy person like mjsef and the thing is
done. Mr. Rice could stand it for regular
election expenses, but when it caino to buy
ing tho voters body and breeches that was
more then ho could stand. So Mr. Rice
was elected to stay at home and General
Splnola, a Tammany brave, warms tho seat
at Washington.
I hardly know whether to -say that we
are improving or going backward, but
many of the most delightful and agresablc
receptions given In the city aro glcn on
Sunday nights. Of course jou will not be
surprised to know that among tho foremost
is that of Colonel Bob Incersol), and what
ever wo may think of his thcoloay, one
thing is certain that there aro not many
men In this city or elsewhere who haye a
more delightful home. Colonel Bob Is a
royal entertainer and the entertaining fac
ulty seems to run In tho family. In his par
lors on Sunday night you can meet lo s of
clover people, and come away with the Im
pression that whatever his future prospects
may be, ho Is having a pretty good time
here.
New York is full of clever literary wo
men, many of them making fino Incomes.
They have their Sunday night receptions
and they are alwavs crowded, Tho best
talent, professional and amateur, is always
to be found there and the musical selec
tions are not confined to the Doxology"
and "Greenland's Icy Mountains."
In point of weather the week has been a
terror, the very worst of tho w nter, but
hoping that the worst is past.

OUR PHILADELPHIA LETTER
Philadelphia Pa., Feb. 8, '88
It Is asserted that a blizzard hailing all
the way from Lousianna will strlko the
Cleveland boom before the end of tho week.
Keep on the look out for It.
Tho Rev. Justus D. Fulton, from Brook
lyn, N. Y., who some time ago started out
to annihilate tho Catholic church, under
tho caption, "Why priest? should many,"
lectured in Horticultural Hall to an audi
ence of ono thousand people ono evening
last week. Tho Rev. Fulton has under
taken a job which, many a stronger man
undertook before and failed. Tills man
seems to be an Imbecile on tho subject
about which for years ho has made so much
fuss, yet has never aceompllshed-anylhlng.
For any man to get up anil declare that
priests of tho Catholic church asaiepre
sentatlvo body of teachers aro Immoral and
unchaste, is to say the least, a bigoted
lunatic. Fulton practically asserts this.
A man who pretends to preach christian
theology, as this bombast claims', should
bear In mind, "Do to others as thou wouldst
be done by," and not misrepresent a large
body of fellow chrlstlaus. It goes without
perversion that tho purest, most self-sacii-
uclng people on the earth, from a Christ
like standpoint are the priests aud sisters
connected with Catholic Institutions and
churches. This is an undoubted fact and
then for a jaclial In sheep's clothing to
grow furious thus Is damnable Indeed.
The handsomest fire-proof building ever
erected In Phlladelphk'ls tho now Bullitt
building completed last week. It Is situ
ated on South -4 Hi street, and Is owned by
John C. Bullitt, A. J. Drexel, W. W.
Kurtz and Geo. F. Tyler. It is a building
spacious and completo in Its details. The
purpose for which It is to he used Is mainly
banking. Thoarchitcctural deslgus reflect
great credit upon the designer
John Joseph Cullcn Is the name of'a
young fellow who at nineteen years of age
is a bigamist, having two wives. John
Joseph was doing business, not at the old
stand, but on a wholesale principle, that is,
in the course ot one week ho married two
young ladles, both of excellent n-puiatlon.
Besides haying two wlves'hc nasergaged
to two other young ladles. These two no
doubt wonld haye tasted the sweets of
matrimony if it had not been that wifo No.
1 ,had this young "Brlgham Young" ar
rested fordoing the thing too much. As
anybody outside of a lunatic asjlurn ndgbt
have been expected he got himself into
troublo by being arrested and being put
under ball for appearance at court, with a
probability of conviction and as a conse
quence two years at "Cherry Hill." Moral
Never he too hoggish,
In the U. S. Mint aro employed a num
ber of ladles closely related to some eminent
and prominent men of our day and of the
past. There Is a Miss Cambloss, sister of
the most prominent member of the Phila
delphia Slock Exchange; Miss Dougherty,
sister to the famed and noted orator Daniel
Dougherty, Miss Dallas, daughter of ex
vlce president Geo. Dallas; Miss Gibbous,
sister ot Major-General Gibbons of the
regular army and who so short a tlmo ago
delivered such a brilliant oration at the
jinyelllng of the Meade monument In Fair
mountPaik, Such aro only a few. It Is
evidence that necessity Is not alone restrict
ed to the. poor and. unknown, orpeihaps
these eminent relatives, aro In such straight..
ened clrcumstantos.as to he unable to ac
cord either relief or aid.
Tho Dayld Bennett Hill boom Is assum
ing some proportions; in fuel It is becom
ing well defined, ami the pioportlons ale
such as to create consternation amongst
President Cleveland's fi lends. This Hill
boom has not only a lodgment in New
York, but it takes In Xmv Jersey, Connec
ticut, Maryl.iiK", Georgia, Louslanna, Mis
souri and part of Pennsylvania. hllo It
has considerable tangible suppoit It Is not
of sufllclunt m.ignltcdo toiun down the
Cleveland engine, which has full strain
pressure and III not be exhausted until
Match 4lh, 1808 The chief danger in this
opposition Is tint It mav control more than
one-third of the national delegates ahd In
this wise defea' Cleveland's nomination.
This is probable, for the opposition to
Cleveland is irystnllzlng under the man
agement of the shrewdest and most astute
Democratic lcaduis of the country. The
hope Is that theso men or leaders will not
succeed In their machinations. Cleveland
deserves a reuomlnatlon at tho hands of
his party, solely upon thogiotind that he
Incarnates tic settlement, according to his
message, of a most cxcd question, a re
vision of tho tariff, leading toward Free
Trade. Either by his election ot defeat
the tariff question would then ho settled
for a long time to conic. It would effec
tually dccldo tho question of direct or In
direct taxation as a principle, as It pertains
to tho policy of the government, as ox
pressed by the American people. The Issue
Is made, and let every Democrat crave for
a final settlement oftt.
