HOW IS THIS?
Let Wlckersham and Xeyes Explain.
At the meeting of tlie soheol superinten
dents held in Harrisburg, en Wednesday
night, the failure of the state treasurer te
honor school -warrants was discussed at
some length. Prof. J. A. Cooper made a
statement, in which he said that en the 28th
day of January, he called upon the state
treasurer and asked him te pay warrants te
the amount of $10,000. He was informed
that the treasurer did net have the money,
and that it would probably be three
months before they could be paid. Net
being satisfied with this answer, he went
te the auditor general's office and asked te
see the monthly statements of the trea
surer, which were shown him, and from
which, he states, he copied the following
llgures :

Neighborhood Xcn.
The surviving member. of the Pennsyl
vania Iteserve corps, resident in Harris
bur, have organized a permanent associa
tion and elected the following officers :
President, (Jeorge Kclley ; Vice President,
Elbiidge McC'enkey; Secretary, J. Nelsen
Clarke ; Corresponding Secretary,
Sheep ; Treasurer, A. C. Spicer.
Kenrney, like Kenible, jumped his bail ;
like Ivemblu he came back ; and quite un
like Ivemble he is new serving out his
term in prison. Kearney's offence is a
viituc in comparison with Kcmble's, yet
he deserves all that has befallen him.
Hew much mere Kcmble deserves what
has net yet been visited upon him !
Hurrisburg Independent.
The Washington (l'a.) llctiew and Ex
aminer says : " Hcnsel, of the Lancaster
iNTr.i.Mcrcxcnu, is net a Tilden man, but
he is an honest Democrat all ever, and we
heartily rejoice, at his triumrth ever the
ring-strcaked and spotted member of our
party who had been appointed dispenser
of census enumeraterships in Lancaster
county."
While Supervisor Jehn Keplin, with a
number of men, was working the read
near Lewis J. Grant's in Lewer Chance
ford. Yerk county, en Tuesday morning,
Jacob Dcttingcr, stabbed James Mcars in
the riirht breast. In the evening Detting
er went te Esquire S. M. Pcdan's and
entered bail for his appearance at court.
It is thought Mcars will die. Neither of
the men are natives of the township, and
have only lived in it a little mere than a
year.
A Leper.
It may be startling te learn that there is
a clearly defined cac of leprosy existing in
the village of New Oxford, Adams county.
The unfortunate victim te this loathsome
and incurable disease is a soldier of the
late war of the Rebellion, who was dis
charged from the service in 18C3 as a leper
having contracted the fearful disease known
as leprosy while in service. The veteran
new enjoys a pension from the government
en account of the disability resulting
from this terrible ailiictien. This, we pre
sume, is the first instance of the existence
of this disease known in this section of
country.

The Unit Kale.
Tork Press, Cem.
Seme of our readers may net precisely
understand the nature and operation of
the " unit rule," against which most of
the Democratic newspapers of this state
are new se vehemently protesting. It is
this : Pennsylvania, for instance, has fifty
eight delegates in a national convention,
four at large and two for each congression
al district. The four at large are elected
by the state convention ; but the district
delegates are elected by the delegates te
the state convention from each district. In
the Republican party it has been custom
ary for the state convention te instruct the
delegates te vote en all questions "as a
unit," and such a resolution was also
passed through the Democratic conven
tion of 1876, after the proceedings were
supposed te have been concluded, and only
a few delegates remained in their seats ;
but it was net sustained nor approved by
tha party.
It will be seen that, under the operation
of this obnoxious rule, thirty delegates
from Pennsylvania might vote the whole
nity-eight delegates, with their constitu
ents absolutely disfranchised, and without
a word te say. The chairman takes a vete
in the delegation, and then he proceeds te
cast the whole fifty-eight in accordance
with the wishes of the majority the votes
of the protesting minority being thus
counted against the very men te whom
they belong. A majority of congressional
districts in Pennsylvania being Republican,
it might easily happen, under the opera
tion of this rule in a Democratic conven
tion, that every Democratic district in the
state wenld be disfranchised and voiceless.
The " unit rule" is the convenient de
vice of the Cameren-Ring, te enable it te
smother public sentiment and te strangle
all personal independence in the party
which owns Senater Cameren for its mas
ter and boss. It is by virtue of this rule
that he threatens te cast the forty
eight votes of Pennsylvania for the nomi
nation of General Grant against the well
known wishes of four fifths of the party.
It is this rule which makes him the
dreaded tyrant and dictator that he
is, and has reduced the Republican
party te a state of pitiful servitude undej
his corrupt and relentless sway. Under
the operation of this rule alone can there
be any boss-ship or undue personal power
exercised ever the votes of a delegation
in a national convention. Without this
rule every delegate is free te vete the sen
timents of his own constituents, according
te his own judgment, and no delegate can
exert any influence which does net pro
perly arise from his character, talents and
previous services and position in the party.
Mere than this no honest man or true
Democrat will ask or permit. We want no
"unit rule" in our councils. It is tyran
nical, undemocratic, corrupt in that it en
ables a boss, who has managed te secure a
a majority te trade away the whole of the
state in his personal interest and in every
point et view, it is an intameus .device of
jring politicians, with which honest Demo
crats can have nothing te de.
We are pleased te see, by his letter pub
lished elsewhere, that Speaker Randall
comes out squarely and with the old.fash eld.fash old.fash
iehed Democratic spirit, against the impo
sition of the " unit rule." We trust that
before the meeting of the state convention
Senater Wallace will sec the wisdom of
abandoning the threat which some of his
friends make, of pressing and enforcing the
rule, and the propriety of leaving all these
Cameren methods te the Cameren party,
which is at this moment suffering death
by strangulation in consequence of its sub
mission. It may as well be understood
new as again that the Democratic party
will bear no suggestion of the detestable
"unit rule."
