A telegram received by his friends iu this city announces that Chas. II. Sprccher, son of Gee. D. and Careline Sprecher, died in Brcckenridge, Colerado, en Wednesday the 20th inst., in the 3-lth year of his age. The paiticulars regarding his death arc net given in the dispatch. The remains will be brought te Lancaster for interment and will probably reach here about Wed nesday. Mr. Spiecher was a young man of geed education and fine business qualifications, ttcfeic leaving Lancaster he was in busi busi iiess with his father and afterwards with O. P. liitner, in the coal trade. Three or four years age he went West, remaining in California for a year or mere,and thence te Oregon and ether points en the Pacific coast and Kecky Mountains, finally settling iu Bieckeni hlge where he went into busi ness, and we understand was well estab lished at the time of his death. Mr. Sprecher had hosts of friends in this city, and it is doubtful if he had a single enemy. Of fine physique, standing ever six feet iu height, finely cut features, having graceful carriage and affa ble manner, lie was a favorite with all who knew him. As a son and brother he was kind and gentle, and the worst we ever heard said about him was that " he was tee geed for fiis own geed," and sometimes unwisely deferred te the wishes of his friends rather than te the dictates of his better judgment. He was a member of the society known as " Survivors," organ ized after the close of the war, of whom se "large a proportion have already gene te their long home. Due notice of his funeral hereafter.

The Cincinnati Western Tobacco Journal has this te say about our Lancaster county tobacco : In Pennsylvania the growers are mak ing preparation for another large crop, and it would seem, from present prespects. as if the sturdy Dutch farmers of Lancaster and adjoining counties were determined te supply all of the seed leaf tobacco used iu this country, as well as that needed for ex ex eort. The great crop of last year has en couraged the growers te renewed effort, and the price realized was all that could be desired, especially at this time, when most of the products of the soil command but indifferent prices. That there is a brisk demand for the dark leaf of this state no one will deny, but that it takes rank above that grown elsewhere is net se, since it has net the fine texture of Connecticut seed leaf, while it is of stronger flavor.

The silver-plated wares made upon this base combine all the excellence of the solid silver goods except the intrinsic value of the silver itself. One of the remarkable features of the process of electro-plating Is perfect accu racy and delicacy with which the finest line of the engraving or chasing traced en the surface of the nickel base Is reproduced en the surface of the silver coating. Thus all the excellence et workmanship which baa earned ferthe company its reputation us makers et sterling silver goods is made tributary te the production of unsurpassed electro-plats. The quantity of pure silver deposited en the finely finished base exceeds that upon the best of foreign plate. This ware would be excellent and take a flue polish without a coating et silver, yet upon it is laid u silver surface which will If net abused last mere than a generation. The object is te pre. luce plated ware which shall have all the beauty of the solid wares. This high grade et ware Is un -distinguishable from work in Sterling silver.

There can be very little doubt that the Democratic party has secured the vantage ground in the recent debates en the federal election laws. The whole drift of the dis cussion has been as te whether these laws shall be enforced in a parttsan or non-partisan manner. Ne effort has been made by the Democrats te alter the laws se as te secure te their own party any special privilege? in their enforcement. On the contrary, all their energies have been directed toward making that enforcement as impartial and independ ent as possible. Their opponents en the ether hand, have striven with all their might te retain the laws in their original shape in order that they may continue te control the machinery of the elections in the interest efthe Republican candidates. They are thus forced te occupy before the country the unpopular position of resist ing a wise and temperate modification of the election laws te which some of their own leaders stand commit ted, and which the independent press throughout the country has approved. The bill passed by the Senate ou Wednesday regulating the appointment of chief supei supei visers was antagonized by Republican sen ators, notwithstanding the fact that it places the appointing power in the hands of t.ie Republican executive, simply because its practical effect will bete legislate out of eflice a number of men who have proved themselves te be pliant tools of the stal wart wiug of the party and who, accord ing te tfie terms of the nrovise added en the motion of Senater Thurnian, cannot be reapjieiiited te the offices which they have disgraced. Indeed, through out the whole discussion of questions affecting the fctlcr.il supervision of the polls the Republican senators have appar autly had but one aim the defeat if possi ble and change iu laws which are as dan gerous te the liberties of the people as they are partisan and odious te all fair-minded men. The course of the Democrats, en the ether hand, iias been all the people of moderate views could ask, ami we doubt net will meet with substantial recognition at the polls.
