The whole country resents the uncalled for colamny heaped on the departed, heroes by this bIgoted,loud-mouthed partisan patriot, a Clcveland,McClellan and Hancock will Uyc In history when the name of Ingalls Is for-1 gotten. I A canvass made RECENTLY amono leading Republicans, of this State, as to a preference of presidential candidates, re-1 suited as follows, with the distinct under- standing however that Blaine would In no case be a candidate: Cameron, 8; Sherman, 7;Depew, 3; Quay, 2; Harrison, 2; Allison, 2; Sheridan, 2; Hawley, 2; Gresham, 1; .Lincoln, 1; Edmunds, 1. On the question of second choice the politicians consulted varied but slightly. ..THE SECOND ARTICLE ON MONOPOLIES and trusts from, the pen of Hon. YV. M. Rapsher appeared in our issue of last week. It proved as highly Interesting to our read ers as tho first article. The subject was handled with logical argument, free from fear or favor. It is this latter element, a disregard for monopolistic vampires, that preeminently testifies the honorable gen tleman's fitness for public ofllcc. Would that we had more such men. Indications point to a lively and vigorous campaign; the Republicans and Democrats are organizing and preparing In various ways for the coming contest. In tb'e State of Now York alone tho Republi cans have one hundred and thirty-five clubs, with more coming, while the Demo crats report almost tho same number. In this State party organizations aro being perfected,as is also the case In the Western States. The fight this year will go down In hlstery as the most hotly contestod In the politics of onr country. IT IB ALMOST A SAFE CONCLUSION TO say that no revenue reform measure will be agreed upon this year. The rank free trad. ers will not compromise with the conserva tive reform element, vice versa, and there. by hinges all tho trouble. The removal of Internal taxes and a legitimate reduction of import duties on such articles as affect the living of tho poor, Is what Is wanted by the people. But the great and brainy men wlip make our laws, good, bad and indiffer ent, feel that it is otherwise. In the mean time, However, the tariff results keep filling up an overflowing treasury. THE NUMBER OF LEADING llsrUBLI- cans who have declined to become presi dentlal candidates Is large. General Sher idan's declination Is plain and positive; he emphatically refuses to lead a forlorn hope. Senator Ingalls aspires not to an office to .which such men as Grayer Cleveland can be' elected and George Washington Cbllds will have.none of It. Blaine, too.the great est Republican leader of the century is out of the field for personal reasons. That a certain (?) elevation to office, the highest in the gift of a free people, should be ig nored by such brilliant men is strange al most to Insane ridiculousness- TUB 8TMKE OF T1IU LOCOMOTIVE ENGI- neera on the Chicago, Burlington' & Quin cy railroad promises to be the most Impor tant in the history of strikes. The broth erhOod is the strongest single labor organl- zatlon In the world, and under tho man- aeement of conservative and able leaders It Is not wrong to expeot that snch a policy of procedure will be Initiated as will result In an overwhelming victory for tho strlk- ers. This Is the first open disagreement for the B. Tj. E. In a period of ten years, certainly in that time they have learned a few lessons from tho failures so plentiful in labor organizations, that tbey can look for success by a correct system of procedure. MANY OF OUB COKTEMrOltAIUES ARE condemning the Lehigh strike as uncalled fpr, foolish, etc There is one thing yery certain, the miners are out of pocket on the Investment, but they haye clearly inti mated to the monopolists, who are their bosses, that so far dare they go in their ysttmixed persecution and no further. The coal barons understand this fully, and none so fully as tbey. We do not like strikes, but when oppression amounts to hateful persecution it is time for men who dclye and toll to assert their independence, their inalienable rights as citizens of a so called "land ef liberty," and strike against a power that would make them hut little better than slaves. A SPECIAL COMMITTEE IIAS llEEN Ap pointed by Congress to investigate the so called trusts and pools that paralyze the business Interests, increase the cost of liv ing and demoralize things centrally. The Committee consists of Representatives Ba- n, of New York (chairman); Brecken ridge, of Arkansas; IFllson, of IPest Vir ginia; Bynum, of Indiana; McKicney, of New Hampshire; Grimes, of Georgia; Her man, of Oregon; Bunnell, of Pennsylvania; Crouse, of Ohio; Hopkins, of New York, and Smith, of Wisconsin. The sugar trust will be the first Investigated the leading members haying already been summoned. An expose of the workings of these mon opolistic combinations will no doubt prove highly Interesting. Fools and trusts must Co. 'Broaatrim's Hew Yori Letter. Special to the Camion Advocate. A couple of weeks ago an old man named Morris died In the city of UrooUyn, ana culturet but be was never Intended to as the last words be uttered were, "They have sociate with publicans and sinners. He poisoned met" An autopsy haying been was an eminently respectable Christian fcadd after his death confirmed his dying elitratlon; In his stomach waa found enoufiU 5f arsofllc To kill a half dozen men". Ha was a wlilower when he married bU last wlfo, nod she was widow forth fifth time. Five of her former lores had crossed the Styx and were presumably safe In the saints' rest when she met old Kobcrt Mor ris. At that time Mr. Jlforrls, If not a nian of wealth, was Bttpposcd to be comfortably endowed with this world's soodsj In point of fact he had been a prosperous taltor.and harln 2 accumulated a reasonaolo stoclF oC shekels for a rainy day ho rosolved that ho would devote tbo rest of his days to the quiet, enjoyment thereof. Mr. Jforrls' first wife was reposing quietly beneatu 1110 dallies, his daughtet had cone to house keeping on her own account, and he dis covered a fact which some other fellow had found out nearly sis; thousand years beforo that 'It Is not good for man to bo alone.' He met the widow Smith, we will call her, for It Is not definitely settled what her name was. Mr. Morris was aware that she had once been a sad-eyed mourner at the tomb, but In his wildest dream he never suspect' cd the full extent of her affliction, or that Ave white stones In God's aero marked the u UCi.u .u.;. ... understood that the widow had property, and she had one hundred dollars nu? I I 1 - , . , ... t 1 . ....

The wed ding took place, and a weak had not passed away when Mrs. Morris began to realize that she had been deceived; for Instead of pony shay, sealskin sacqucs, diamond rings and a brown stone house, sho found herself In two back rooms, having a lively race to keep even with tho butcher, tbo bakor and candlestick maker. AH of her vast experience had availed her nothing her last cholco was ten thousand times worse than her first.for in addition to want of cash he had the sciatica in his legs, the lumbago in his back, rheumatism in both arms, neuralgia In ins neau, dyspepsia In his stomach, his sight was impaired and his hearing was not by any means good and it did not take long to impress Mrs Morris with the fact that she had brought her pigs to a pretty poor market. Morris: if not sick, was grunting all the time. Not withstanding his numerous afflictions his appetite was remarkable; and about two weeks ago he took a fancy to a disli of green peas and molasses. Almost everybody likes sweet peas, but Morris likes them ex tra sweet, and that dose proved his lete notr, for tho next morning after eating the peas and molasses ho was a subject for coroner's Inquest. Tho Inquest developed some strango facts. At first Mrs. Jorris acknowledgd to having had two husbands before sho tackled Mr. Morris; then she owned up to three, and on a moro critical examination to four, and after a desperati struggle the fact was developed that five husbands had preceded Mr. Morris in her affections. Then came another complica tion. Mr. Morris was said to havo a legacy left him In England of $13,000. and tho interest on this money in England was paid him by ono Dawborn in Now York, Dawboru was hunted up and swears that ho never knew -Vorris in his life and never paid him a stiver. Bat, as I said, old Mor ris said he was poisoned; the jury sat on him and entirely agreed with him. Was there Rough on Rats In Mr. -Vorris' green peas and molasses? It docs not matter much to Mr. Morris now whether there was or not, but It may be an exceedingly inter esting question to Mrs. Jforrls because, if tho verdict of the coroner's jury is adverse to her hopes, tombstone No. 0, which deco rates Mr. .Morris' grave, may pos3lblymark thelast of the amorous widow's matrimonial conquests. The sudden death of a well known poli tician by the name of Brcnnan, developed quite as extradorlnary a state of affairs as was exhibited in tho case of the widow Morris. Brennan was a 'gay boy and a successful politician and everybody's friend, with a weakness for draw poker, good whiskey and a number of Mrs. Brennan's, which led him down to ruin, and the man who, tivo years ago, was the prido of his party and went clad in purple and fine linen, was discovered one cold night last week sitting under a lamppost all covered with mud, with several big cuts on top of his head, and on his death bed, which ensued at tho hospital a few hours afterwards, no less than three wives turned up to claim the body. What In Jerusalem they could want with such a whiskey-soaked reprobate is beyond my ken, and yet tbey fought for him, and It is now rumored that there are five or six more ready to chip in as soon as the first three have settled their battle. From time to time Now York is startled and horrified by the disclosnres that come up from tho lunatic asylums, and the rcve- latlons of the past week havo sent a thrill of horror through tho entlro community. After a desperato struggle with tho hospital authorities twenty-seven sane men and wo- men have been relieved from a captivity, I In comparison to which death would have been a blessing. If a patient dared to Insinuate that he was sane, he was seized by tho attendants and If he made tho slightest resistance he was lifted up and suddenly let fall upon the floor till the breath was all knocked out of him, and then a pswerful hypodermic In jection of morphine paralyzed all further resistance, Beaten, kicked and terrorized the miserable wretches lingered on from month to month and year to year.and their cry of agony was never heard ontslde the confines of their prison. One who was res cued from this hell by the indefatigable ef forts of a charitable lawyer, Immediately went to work to help some of his fellow prisoners, and the result Is that twenty- seven sane persons were released ivho have been confined in the asylum as lunatics, some for months and others for years, and every one of them by a sheriff's jury was pronounced perfectly sano. A successor has just been found InUrook- lyn to the Bov. Dr. Snlyely who retired from his charge there about a year ago. To most of the readers of the Broadbrim let ters Dr. Snlvely was unknown, but he will be readily remembered as the clergyman who refused old George Holland, the actor, Christian sepulture, but told his friends that If tbey wanted a few prayors no doubt they could get them at the Little Church Around the oorner. Holland's body was conveyed to Dr. Houghton's little church, and every actor who has died from that day to this has been burled from the Little Church Around the Corner. Dr. Hough ton is idolized by the profession, and if In the other world people are allowed to' exer cise the profession that they found most congenial to them here, Dr. Houghton will always be sure of a front seat or a private box whenever he attends the theatre. Kvor since he refused to read prayers over George Hollaed Dr. Snlyely has been underacloud personally he is a great favorite with the bishop, and he is a gentleman of eminent who had no Idea of contaminating his lawn I with hod carriers or actors. The bishop moved lilln from place to "place'! it was no use, tbo Little Uhurcu Around the corner stuck to him liko the shirt of Ncssus, and It will cling to him to the day of his death. The press of New York is wild over tjio acquittal of Jaurtce B. Flynn and Itolln M. Squire for conspiracy. When Mayor Kdson was going oat and Mayor Grace was coming in, nearly four years ago, Hubert O. Thompson, ono of the most poweifnl Dcmocratle politicians In tho State, had jast been kicked out of the Board of rubllc Works for malfeasance In office. Up to the, end of Mayor Kdson's term all of the Mayor's appointments had to bo confirmed by the Board of Aldermen, but although the Democratic majority was large In the Board the County Democracy and Tam many Hall could arrive at no equitable division of the spoils, and If tho appoint ment went over till the term of tbo new Mayor began the Aldermen would lose all share In tho plunder, as under tho now charter his appointment was absolute with out their aid.- The Board In question was the celebrated "Boodle Board," Immortal n Infamy, that got a million out of old Jake Sharp on the Broadway railroad deal. At the very last moment It was alleged Maurice B. Flynn In the Interest of Hubert O. Thomnson nut up a job whereby a political tramp by'tho name of Rolln M, Squire was put In chargo of the most Ira portant department In tho city of Now York, a department tho patronageofwhlch was worth many millions, Mr. Squire giving his written pledge to do the bidding of those who had secured him the olllce. H'hen Mr. Squlro found hlrasolf serenely In the saddle he repudiated tho promises ho had made, and also the men who had elevated him, and then the fun commenc ed. But sharp as he was he mado no match for the ring. They had him Indict ed, and on appeal to the Governor lie was kicked out of office. At that time there were two wltnossess alive to prove tho con spiracv between Flynn and Squire, and there seemed to bo llttlo doubt that this precious pair would eventually land in States Prison. There was no getting rid of tho facts, and the only thing that could save them was to get rid of the wltnessess, so they had tho trial put oil for the last two years. Last year ono of tho witnesses died; this year tho other pegged out. This week the case was called and as the wit nesses were reported beyond the jurisdict ion of the Court a nolle prosoquo was en tered and the prisoners discharged, and now Mr. Squire is going to sue the city of New YorP for his hack salary and his office. Big thing the taw, sir; mighty big thing 1 BROADBRIM. OUR PHILADELPHIA LETTER Philadelphia Pa., Feb. 22, '88 The most terrific snow and wind storm known to the oldest citizens of Philadelphia prevailed with all tho force and terror known during Sunday night Monday. It was a paialyzer, it took us all off our feet and caused the imagination to won'dcr whether old boreas has not taken this por tion Uncle Sam for Dakota. Well if one of those Western blizzards is worse than our Eastern tempest of Sunday and Mon day then truly western endurance is to bo commended and recognized as heroic. Even If bad as ourbretbern along the Miss, valley are to be pitied and'eonnsorated especially when so destructive and luiurlous as the storm of Monday. The destruction and disaster caused Is Incalculable millions of dollars worth of property destroyed and the damago done to business by virtue of breaking communication off with the out sido world is equal. B. It. trains and con sequent traffic had been effectually blocked for two days. Trains due to and out of the city for surburvan towns, to reach dcstlna Hon to and for took ten and twelvo hours Some were so completely hampered by snow drifts and blown obstruction that no railroad communication was had for two days. H'hen It Is considered that hourly communication Is had day in and day out with these outlying towns and cities the Inconvenience, loss and damage Is impossi ble to be calculated. Besides when it is ana lized that the best and most perfectly equipped railroad tho Pennsylvania In the world has had no way to even run our trains from New York to Philadelphia and vico yersa for two days, the effect and force of the storm comes readily within the assertion that It was the fiercest in the memory of the oldest citizens of Phlladel phla. All communication with the outside world were cut off. Telegraph poles, wires etc., were snapped and torn off as though but pipe stems; awnings throughout the city wefo torn Into shreds; chimneys turn bled down, window panes broken and iron poles twisted and bent to look like corn stalks. Street cars with the exception e one or two lines were altogether blockaded all day Monday and part of Tuesday. The lnocnvcnlcnce and loss caused to the poor working people by this obstruction, for tho street car lines are their solo dependence, except walking for miles, to reach their work Is very large, and'there are over 150 such street lines. Tho whistling and music accorded by the hissing and whirling of tho wind through tho thousands of telegraph wires was graph ically Inspiring of the gieat and tremendous velocity and strength of the winds. Tho swaying and dancing, the whistling and howling of the three or four hundred wires along the main streets was not only graphic, but was a slight Indication of the great and majostic power of natures forces as directed by Illm who Is greater than all things. Peiceive it ? This rtonn will be remembered as long as the momory of the present generation will last. It will also serve to arouse that fee ing of fellow sympathy for fellow sufferers from a bod) of people who never before knew tho suuering and vicissitude entailed by so horrid a storm. If It has destroyed much property and caused much loss. It will at least have served this good and this counts for some something, this seems to be tho only compensation. The death ot Emperor ulillam: the Sullivan tornado; and the terror of the storm havo been rather three, interesting eyeutr lor a space 01 lour dajs. Occasional. QUE TABLE.
