DISTRICT ATTORNEY BAPSHEE'S BEPLT,
Th North American Review for August
contains Mr. Rapshcr's reply to Don. Isaac
H. Bromley's article In the July number
ntltled "Abuse of Corporations." It Is
concise, and wo think a conclusive answer,
W a quote a single but significant sentence,
'I am clad to be reassured, by Mr. Broru
lay, that Iowa, Kansas, Nebraska and
several other, states hayo begun to control
tha corporations In their several jurlsdlc
lions, and I hopo the tlmo may soon como
when wo shall bo able to do tlio satno hero
In Pennsylvania."
To appreciate tho high position which Mr.
Bapsber has attained, the character and
standing of this famous monthly uiaiiazino
must bo taken Into consideration. Tho New
Tork Herald recently spoke of Itas follows;
"The North American Review holds the
foremost place In the periodical literature
of the United States. Under Allen Thorn-
dike Bice's management It brines to all
classes the profoundest thought and high
est scholarship, In tha discussion of the
most vital, living and interesting topics of
the day. Seeking truth wherever It may
ba found it presents both sides of questions
In eTery field of research. Only tho very
bast can gain access to its pages. It has a
large circulation In all parts of the world.
Equal justice to all Is Us motto. Tho readers
are the Judges and Jury; tho writers the
witnesses and advocates."
The Revslw Is bound Into two handsome
and Invaluable volumes each year contain
Ing about 700 pages, and may bo found
upon the shelves of every Library of any
Importance In the world.
The July number began "Vol. 147. Vol
140 contains Mr. Kapshcr's article on
"Dangerous Trusts" which first appeared
In the May number, and has attracted so
much attention that It has been reprinted
and commented upon by newspapers all
oyar the country. It Is a matter of great
satisfaction td us to be able to say that Mr,
Bapiher's conclusions In that celebrated
article are everywhere sustained by the
ablest thinkers. Especially, is it worthy
of note to obseryo that Stale, and National
Committees of Investigation, who have
since reported upon tho workings of the so
called "Trusts," fully sustain and corrobor
ate .Mr. Bapsherln all he so eloquently and
forcibly said.

Rapshcr, the leading member of the Carbon

Trusts," in tho "North American Review,'
has a reply In tho August number of the
"Review" to an article by ox-Governor
Issac II. Bromley, entitled, "Abuse of
No name in American history shine? Corporations." Mr. Rapshcr Is a forceful
fertkmore grandly, nobly and conspicu
ously than does that of General Sheridan.
Bold, Indefatigable, 'honorable and heroic,
he achieved a reputation during the great
clyll strife that clung to him as It clung to
no other man or men who distinguished
themselves in the war of tho rebellion.
General Sheridan first saw the light of
day In Somerset, Perry county, Ohio, on
thefltbdayof Maich, 1831. His parents
were poor, but that meant nothing to
Obloans, aud It was said of the Sheridan's
that they were good stock. Little Phil
was characteristic of Sheridan stock, aud
many an amusing, daring and pugnacious
story is told of his early life. Ho was ap
pointed to a cadetship In tho H'cst Point
Military Academy through the favor of a
Congressman, and there, as In later life,
he soon distinguished himself. He died on
Sunday night at 10:20 o'clock. The wholo
country mourns the loss of a gallant votary.
Peace be to his ashes,
writer of keen analysis and sound logtc.

BROADBRIM'S 1 Y. LETTER.
No event in our social life ha3 caused a
mora profound sensation than the death ot
Courtlandt Palmer, whoso funeral oration
was pronounced by his friend Col. Robert-
G. Ingcrsoll, assisted by tho Rev. Heber
(. Newton of AH Souls Protestant Episco
pal Church, Mr. Newton has long been re
garded as one of tho most advanced think
ers of his church, and his lectures on the
Blhlo a few Tears ago gave the good Blshbp
Potter tho gravest anxiety. By many ex
cellent orthodox Episcopalians he was re
quested to Bllence the iconoclastic preacher
who did not believe In Adam and Eve, and
who even questioned the story of Sampson's
lialr and David's sling, and was a good deal
more remarkable for what he didn't be
lieve than for what he did. As I said, the
good Bishop was gravely troubled; but he
adylsed, Instead of expulsion and silence,
spiritual purgation, low diet and rest; and
the result of this treatment proved so ef
fectual that the Rev. Mr. Newton, after a
few months, returned to All Souls, and wo
heard no moro of his scriptural vagaries
till he turned up at the funeral of Mr
Palmer on Thursday last. Pew men in this
community were better or more favorably
known than Courtlandt Palmer, The only
man In this community who at all compares
with him Is (Jhauucy M. Depow, late, a

number of other things: "Aud what gives
a few politicians of two counties the right
to bargain that the people of Berks and
Lthlgh shall be confined to one county one
year and to another county another year in
tha choice of a Congressman? Congress
men are not chosen to execute tho contracts
of county politicians, but, presumably at
least, to serve 'the people; aud while one
term may be just one term too much for
one man half a dozen terms may not be
enough for another man, If tho Interests of
the country are to he considered. If a
majority-el the people want Mr. Ernien

should caye them; If they want Mr. Sowden
oa, two, three or more terms, he should
have them; or If they shall choose to take
neither of them either now or hereafter, no

way for a moment." Does this not apply

of affairs In our own Congressional District.
If not, why not?

strike us that they will vote pretty much

Independent and liberal thinking, and are
not to be "blarneyed" into voting for tho
leaders of any particular party. It Is
a well-known fact that the great majority
st voting Irishman In this country are Dem

racy believes In a wider and frcccr scope of
liberties ot a people than does Republican

and oppression, embrace the .Tcffersonlan

Brother Harilson still continues his tri

I record It with grief that the devil, taking
advantago of Brother Harrison's engage
ment with the brokers, has mado a descent
on Ziou's Colored Church In Brooklyn,
which nearly proved Its ruin. Last week
the church had a plc-nlc. They look

went up the rlver,and now that tho danger
Is past wo consider It a mercy of Providence
that one half tho congregation was not
utterly destroyed. Tho party got off all
right, about six hundred strong, and they
had laid themselves out for a big day's en
joyment; but the hawser was scarcely cast
oil from the wharf when It became evident
that Satan was on board In propria per-
sonnie. bent on mischief. A black tough
on the lower deck drew a piofauc pack ot
cards and challenged any of tlio lookers on
to a little game of draw-poker with fifty
cents anto. Another laid down a sweat
cloth and started In business. A third
amused tho crowd with three-card moutc.
while tho fourth assured the assembled
crowd that thcro was not ono of them could
tell where the little joker was. Deacon
Baldwin and Trustee Johnson tried to stop
them, hut one half of a rip water-melon
planted rudely on the top of Brothe Bald
win's head Incapacitated him from further
expostulation, and a plaster under the jaw
made Trustee- Johnson think of the earth
quake at Charleston. In less time than It

and beer glasses flow In every direction,
There was only ono policeman on the boat

It Is happiness to known that the poor
flotsam and jetsam ot the slums aro not for
gotten. All the great newspapers have
special funds which they collect and devote
to excursions for the poor, Certain churches
take parlies of fifty or a hundred children
and give them from two to four weeks In
tho country. For that time at least their
miserable lives are made brighter. They
are taken out of the burning streets and
from the steaming ccllers and fetid garrets,
and they roam In the woods and green
fields and get lessons In decency, cleanliness
and order which will last them all their
lives.

years will shut out from social intercourse
