Cameren's Control.
It is quite certain that -whatever may
be the result of the Republican confer
ence in this state, it will net affect Sena Sena
eor Cameren's control of the party,which
is secured te him beyond the reach of
the Independents by his solid control of
the federal patronage through the laver
or the president. If it is of sufficient im
portance te him te have the party in the
state apparently harmonious, he can af
ford te concede te the ether side almost
any sort of a ticket that they can de
mand ; for it is of no vital consequence
te him who may be put upon it. If the
men demanded should be of a kind net
agreeable te him te have in office, it is
the easiest thing in the world for him te
secure their defeat at the polls. He has
made use of this resource before and can
as readily de it again. What he wants
is the continued control of the federal
patronage. That he has safely secured
te him : but Mr. Arthur probably re
quires that he shall keep the party
in the state apparently united. Te
this end lie has consented te ap
point a committee of conference with the
Independents. It is one composed en
tirely of liis servants. It will de exactly
as he wishes. Its leader, Quay, says the
result will be harmony ; and we are
quite ready te believe it. But it will be
aiharmeny that will disarm the Inde
pendents and give them no substantial
profit of their seeming success. They
will get nothing that they really want.
Their desire is te free their party from
the Cameren control. Obviously Cam Cam
eeon will net concede them this ; and
therefore the mere freely he assents te
their demands the mere certain is it that
they are te take nothing substantial
from him. It only shows that his need
is for the appearance of a united Repub
lican party in the state ; and as this need
may be well understood te a leader who
dispenses the party patronage, it is
chraply bought by the concession te his
eunuies of candidates for state offices
who cannot be elected unless he is will"

The American, anti-administration
Republican, premises that, te secure the
rejection of Mr. Worthinglen, appointed
collector for Bosten, " the votes of Mr.
Hear and Mr. Dawes will be seconded
i- these of ether Independent Republi-
ins, such as Mr. Mitchell, of Puiusyl-
mia ; and without a serious defection
of Democrats te the support of the ad
ministration, this nomination cannot be
renlirmed." This " defection " of Dem
ocrats the American hopes for because
Worthington "is notoriously a man who
jay be expected te abuse his official
position by forcing every man under his
orders te become a political ' worker,'
le the neglect of the public service and
te the injury of the ether citizens of the
state. There is net a man en the fleer
of the Senate who does net knew that
the effect of the confirmation of this
nomination will be te make the Bosten
custom house ' a power in politics,' first
for the Stalwarts against the majority of
the Republican voters of the state, and
lUcn for the regular Republican candi
dates for ejjke, geed or lad, against all
vlhers. If the Democrats are net hound
hand and feet by their relations te the
White Heuse, they have the chance at
once te defeat a bad nomination t?uZ te
prevent an injury tethcir eicn party." The
words we liave italicized are the
bid for the Democratic vote against
Worthington. They are, te say the least,
" fresh," and characteristic of the Re
former who never discovers that the
Democrat ptr se is less of an " evil"
than Cameren until when he wants te
use him te beat Cameren and te serve
himself. It is something new for Dem
ocrats te be asked te help defeat Repub
lican appointees, because they are likely
te use their offices te the injury of the
Democracy, and something new for the
Re-formers te make this objection te
them. When Hayes appointed Sher
man te his cabinet, he put him
into a position which it was most
certain would be shamelessly pros
tituted, first for his friends and his own
interests against all ethers, and " then
for the regular Republican candidates
for office, geed or bad, against all
ethers." There were no Independent
senators who steed up then and invited
the Democrats " at once te defeat a
bad nomination and te prevent an
injury te their own party." The
same was conspicuously true when Gar
field made Blaine his premier. It was
even mere conspicuously true when Gar
field, in violation of his plighted faith
and in breach of every principle of civil
service reform, turned Merrit out of the
New Yerk custom house te let Robert Robert
eon in. When the Independents had the
appointing power they were net hunting
for Democrats te assist in securing the
rejection of appointees who would abuse
their offices for the injury of the Democ
racy. When the Re-former is Bick the
Re former a monk would be, when the
Re-former gets well a de'il of a monk is
he. In fact he is se much of a Greek
that we have te be afraid of him even
when he comes with a whole armful of
gifts.
Ix the trial of a larceny case in the
Yerk county quarter sessions, it was de
veloped that miners had procured beer
at one of the Yerk saloons. Judge
Wickes, in his official capacity, noticed
the direct and positive evidence of this
violation of the liquor law and promptly
and properly directed the district attor
ney te prepare and send te the grand
jury a bill of indictment against the vio
lator of the law, charging him with sell
ing liquor te miners. This and the
testimony being laid before it, the grand
jury ignored the bill, and judge Wickes
at once discharged the grand jury. In
our local court, the ether day, Judge
Livingston refused an old stand license
en the ground that it had been developed
in a house of refuge case heard before
him that the incorrigible miner had been
sold beer by the applicant for thislicense.
Manifestly Judge Wickes's course was
the proper one. If a violation of the
liquor law is disclosed in a collateral
proceeding, the court should order the
indictment of the offender and he should
be put en trial, and if convicted, be pun
ished according te the law of the land,
and thereafter be refused license. Te
seek te punish him by refusing him a
license without a hearing or without an
opportunity te defend against a charge
incidentally made may accomplish the
right end, but by entirely wrong means ;
and courts should remember that they
suffer in popular esteem oftener by doing
things the wrong way than by doing tne
wrong things.
Seme one has been trying te blew up
Wm. II. Vanderbilt and Cyrus W.
Field, two of our very rich men who de
net enjoy a high degree of popular
esteem and who are likely, in the opinion
of geed Christians, te enjoy a het time
of it when they come te give an account
of their stewardship ; but no geed Chris
tian or sensible man would care te hasten
the time for this by means of infernal
machines. Te kill a man is a peer way
of working out spite against him, inde
pently of its being forbidden by human
and Divine law. It is much mere eliec-
tive te leave him te suffer the infirmities
of the flesh that come with advancing
age and accompany the descent into the
grave that he is certainly deemed te
enter.
The Pennsylvania railroad carried out
ever its Tyrene & Clearfield branch
sixcy-ene thousand tens of bituminous
coal during the week ending April .
At present it has a monopoly of the traf
fic and charges accordingly rates of
freight that are considered excessive by
the iron manufacturers, who mainly use
the Clearfield coal. The Reading rail
road proposes shortly te enter this re
gion by a branch read ; and when this
is done the competition for freight will
release the miners and manufacturers
from the control of a monopoly of which
they reasonably complain.

worthy of notice, as no ether congressman
from this district ever served successively
as long. Thaddeus Stevens was elected
for seven terms, in all, but net success

1850 : Isaac E. Uicstcr was elected in
1852 aud Antheny E. Roberts in 1854.
Mr. Stevens was again elected in 1850 and
re-elected term after term until lSCO live

Oun esteemed contemporary, the New
Era, celebrated its fifth anniversary en
Saturday by appearing in a spick and
span new suit of type, from the foundry
of Cellins Cc McLcester, very appropri
ately introduced with the poem written
for the Ixn i.i igexceii some three years
age by Mr. M.tnday, en a similar occasion.
In the style of general typographical ar
rangement the Era remains as before,
and it leeks as handsome as a
bride in her Easter bonnet. Our
contemporary reviews with pardon
able pride its first half decade
and the abundant material and moral pros
perity which has attended its "metempsy
chosis " of the old Express, the form but
net the spirit of which was incorporated
into the Examiner. Believing, no doubt,
as we de, that theic is a' ways mere room
in any community for two geed news
papers than for one. peer one, the Era will
no doubt be glad te knew that its pros
perity has net been accomplished with any
less te its contemporary "across the way,"
since there has never been a tiniu in the
history of the Intelligencer when ifs
circulation was as large or its advertising
patrouage as liberal as te-d.iy, and its
various editions new go te even manifold
mere Republican " respectable firesides "
in this county than when the N.in Era was
first established.

Saturday night having been apppeinted
for the Independent and Stalwart Rep
ublican conference te meet at the Conti
nental hotel, Philadelphia, early in the
afternoon the Independent committee with
Assemblyman Mapes, Senater Mitchell
and a few ethers met in Wharten Barker's
office te agree upon some plan of action.
After a long discussion it was agreed te
prepare an address embodying the views
of the committce te present te the Stal
wart committee and also te be given te the
public in case of disagreement at the con
ference. It was also the expression of the
cemmittee that the conference should
determine that General Beaver and all the
Cameren slate should be withdrawn and
the state convention adjourned until a date
sufficiently late te allow of the olectieu of
delegates in all counties in which they
have been appointed. With a convention
composed et delegates elected in this way,
as the free expression of the Republicans
of the state, the Independents were will
ing te accept as candidate General Beaver
or anyone else the convention might nomi
nate These views were embodied in a
written paper and signed by all the mem
bers of the committee.
The Independents did net get through
their coufurcuce until after G o'clock.
They sent te Mr. Quay the document they
had agreed upon, aud it became evident at
once that the conference would be abortive
if any such demands wcre adhered te.
The conference had been called te meet at
7 p. in.; but at that hour the room was
still dark. The Independents met again
and finally consented te waive the demand
for the postponement of the state conven
tion aud struck out of their docket any
mention of the name of Gen. Beaver.
They insisted, however, that there should
be no slate, and agreed that if the regular
convention which meets in Harrisburg ou
May 10 should uominate a satiofaciery
caudidate for governor, who would Le
recognized as the tool of no man, then the
Independent convention, called te meet ou
May 24 in Philadelphia, would cndeise the
ticket. The preposition of course, prac
tically debarred Beaver from being a can
didate for governor.
The Stalwarts did net held any confer
ence. Mr. Quay knew what was wanted
and that was all that was necessary. At
the suggestion of Mr. Cooper, chairman
of the .state central committee, a paper
was drawn up by Mr. Reeder, embody
ing the following prepositions : 1. That
no person should be submitted as a candi
date te any state convention who was net
first indorsed by the Republican voters of
me county in which he lived ; 2. That
stale conventions should net be held be
fore June 1 in each year ; 3. That dele
gates must be elected by the Republican
voters of the county and net be appointed
by county committees ; 4. That the basis
of representation in state conventions
should be according te the Republican
vote in each county. These four proposi preposi
tions were submitted te Senater Mitchell
aud approved by him, aud were then pre
sented te the conference committees.
This was the Stalwart trap set te ca ch
the Independent committee. It was
proposed that the conference cemmittee
agree te these four prepositions, and then
submit them te the coming convention for
its approval, aud that they be made te
govern futuie conventions, butnetthe one
ahcady called. Of course this would leave
Mr. duucieu te carry out his own will for
this j ear, and the future he could leave
te take care el itself. Moreover the prope
sitien te apportion the delegates according
te the Republican vote is acceptable te
the Itiii'j as it could largely increase the
number from Philadelphia, Allegheny.
Laucastcr, Dauphin, and ether counties in
which the btalwarts can nearly always
secure seuu delegations.
lhe conference assembled at 9 p. m. and
organized by the election of Wharten
milter as cnairmau anu Mi: ueeves as
secretary. Mr. Conly, of the Stalwart
committee, having been called te Bosten,
Themas A. Cochran, of Philadelphia, took
hisplace. Nobody but the conferees was
present. Twe papers were then submit
ted aud the members began te speak in
support et them. Although reporters
wcre careiuliy excluded the speakers could
be heard laying their arguments pre and
con. Mr. Welfe first spoke and main
tained that the time had ceme when def
erence must be paid te the wishes of the
lUMmuucau voters auu net te tne wisues
of any one man or set of men. He said in
substance that all he and Ins associates
desired was the geed of the party sd that
they were determined te give the people
an opportunity te be heaid. He pleaded
for harmony, but said that if it could net
be brought out of this conference the con
sequences must be upon the boss system.
He and his associates said plainly that if
the slate was nominated a second Repub
lican ticket would be placed iu the field.
Mr. Quay denied that there was any
slate, or that there had been any inter
ference by Senater Cameren or any one
else with the wishes of the people Gen
eral Beaver, he said, was the choieo of the
people, as expressed by the election of
delegates, and he did net think as a com cem cem
mitteo of private citizens that it would be
becoming te attempt te interfere. He
was, however, willing te de all he could
for conciliation, but he would net consider
candidates. Then followed a long dissus dissus
sien ever the merits of the prepositions
submitted. At midnight it was evident
that n agreement could be reached,
though there was a possibility of meeting
en some common ground. The conference
then agreed net te divulge any of the pro
ceedings and adjourned until Monday at
4 p. m.
One of the members said after the ad
journment that the conference would prob
ably agree te seme general recommenda
tions, but would net come te any agree
ment that would avoid two state conven
tions and probably two Republican tickets.
Saturday at the Fair.
The fair of St. Mary's chnrch steadily
increases in popularity, and Saturday was
the biggest day of all. In the evening the
opera house was crowded. The following
articles were chanced off : Lamp, en the
cigar table, te Mr. D. Murphy ; beautiful

te Mrs. Mary Ceylo.
As the fair draws te a close the attend
ance bids fair te increase, and the interest
in the raore valuable articles te be chanced
off will also grew. The fair will be open
every afternoon and evening until Wed
nesday.

On Saturday afternoon a laree and val
uable greyhound, belonging te Samuel

The Republican primaries throughout
the county en Saturday were net very
largely attended, as it was an off year en
county officers, but in the Northern dis
trict the sharp Stchman-Kauffman contest
brought out a very geed vote. In the city
Republican vote fell 1,000 below the
figures te which it was swelled in the
" carnival of fraud " four years ase : and
throughout the county there was generally
a quiet and orderly election, and little
complaint of disorder or Iraud at the polls
is heard. The results were very late coming
in, and only last evening was it determined
that Stehman had been elected senator,
Brosius and Landis in the lower district
for assembly and Fry for solicitor. The
vete for recorder was very clese.aud at the
time the return judges met this morning
Myers' friends claimed the Domination for
him by 1 majority and Lengeneckcr's by
18.
Ever since Saturday night the ceuutry
politicians have been coining in and pitch
ing their tents in the city ; and at every
corner fellows could be seen figuring en
and comparing the result. The interest
culminated at 11:30 a.m., today, when
the beard of return judges met at Excel
sior hall in the large room lately occupied
by the poultry show, and there was a line
collection of roosters present, though
many of the elder aud tougher birds fail
ed te put in appearance, their interest
ceasing with the determination of the sen
atorial contest.
The Organisatien.
Chairman Shcnck who had admitted
the return judg-s only en presentation of
their certificates., the candidates and a few
ethers appointed A. C. Welckans and
W. T. Brown secretaries pie tern,, and the
list of districts was called and the names
of the judges taken as they responded.
Fer president Jehn A. Steber then nom
inated Rebert J. Evan.-., of the 4th ward,
city, for chairman; Andrew F. Frantz
named Cel. W. M. McOlure of Columbia.
A ballet being taken Myers's friends voted
for Evans and Lengenccker's for McCIure.
The result was Evans 43, McClure29 ; (the
candidates each courteously voting for his
opponent.) Mr. Evans being elected
chairman and Mr. McCIure vice president,
they took their places, Mr. Evans return
ing thanks and premising te "try and
please everybody."
Fer the committce en contests the
Myers people nominated J. A. Steber,
Percy Sheck, Frank Baer and Milten
Eaby. The Lengenccker side nominated
A. J. Frantz, Jehn K. Weaver, I. N.
Broemell and S. J. Hendersen.
Every return judge having been duly
provided by the bosses of his faction with
printed tickets en all the offices, there was
" straight" voting and the result was the
election of the following : Sheck, Steber,
Baer, Eaby, Weaver, Broemell and Frantz ;
Myers thus securing the odd man.
Clerks were elected by general consent
as follews: On behalf of Lengenccker, G.
C. Kennedy, W. F. Beyer and H. J.
Butler ; On behalf of Myers : A. C. Wel
chans, Wm. M. Slaymaker, jr., and W. T
Brown.
The returns were then handed in and the
beard adjourned until 1 p. m.

contest the vete by districts, as we
gathered it from politicians who ought te

should defeat Longenecker there will he
trouble with Scnsenig from the upper sen
atorial district. One factor which aided
Stehman was the defection from the New
Era party of Sheriff, High, whom they
elected last year and who is a powerful
politician in the Earls, where Eauffmau
had GOO majority four years age,
and where Stehman new leads.
Kauflraan gained largely in Col
umbia, where he and his brother,
the newly-appointed collector, both live,
but the revolution in the Earls and ether
districts neutralized this. The defection
of High and ethers whom the New Era
has aided lately will effect a new deal
among the local politicians, and Adam J.
Eberly's name for district attorney is al
ready wiped oft the anti-Cameren slate
for next year.
Landis' election is a great personal vic
tory and shows thac in his section the
support of the school teachers outweighs
the opposition of the tavern-keepers. In
the city district Geerge W. Cormeny had
no opposition, as the Republicans consid
er it difficult te elect their candidate. He
has served iu common council without
distinction. Fer delegates te the state
convention iu the city district Schroyer,
the Beaver delegate, is elected ever Den
ues, Butler candidate, by about the ma
jority of his faction, though Brosius beats
Jehnsen much worse for senatorial dele
gate, owing te Jehnsen's personal un
popularity and his political record, which
is obnoxious te every instinct of reform."

jority of that committce Longenecker's
majority in Adamstown will likely get
short shrift, and that may settle it. It is
claimed there was no election in the ancient

Sunday of the nomination of Stehman,
aud he was greatly elitcd ever the victory.
He feels entirely vindicated in the nomina
tion of A. J. Kaulfman for collector, and
will new have an easy read te Collector
Ivauffniau's confirmation. Cameren's
friends say that Senater Mitchell's public
letter dictating the nomination of oena eena oena

The Murderer Ulen Ununewn and Makes uu
Slgu Hurled in retter's Field.
The following from the Sunday editieu
of the Baltimore Bay leaves no doubt
that the man who died at the-Baltimore
City hospital a month age, under the
name of ' James Campbell" nr.d was
buried in the potter's field there, was
Janice Shaw, the Colerain township wife
murderer. The Say says :
' A representative of the Day yesterday
saw Pat Mullen, superintendent of the
Eastern public cemetery, and ascertained
that the body of Jehn Campbell, or James
Shaw, was buried in the cemetery aad is
still there. Daniel Battenficld butfedhim,
and says that he took the body from a
dissecting table in the City hospital en the
12th of April, the same day upon which
Shaw died. fhe body had been slightly
cut for turgical purposes, and Battenfield
did net notice it very particularly. As
well as he could remember, however, de
ceased was about live feet, ten inches tall,
with clesely-shavcu beard. The body was
taken away in a public burial van and
interred in that part of the cemetery near
Herriugruu. The dispatch was read te
Dr. Fraser Themas, physician at the City
hospital, and ha was asked te think care
fully and endeavor te remember all the
circumstances in connection with Camp
bell or Shaw's visit.
" I rcmcraber the case very well," said
Dr. Themas. " The man tirst came te the
dispansary of the hospital which is en the
lower fleer, en the 12th of March, and
1 aked me te dress his risht ?eg, which, he
"aid, he had accidentally tut withanadzj

v.heu he came iu I examined the wound
and found there were symptimsef erysip

ceived at least two days hcfoie he came
here, and may be mere. The murder was
committed en the 7th of March ; then if
the man did net receive the wound in the
encounter with his wife, it mnt have been
inflicted ou the journey from Lancaster te
Baltimeif. I dressed the wound, and the
next day M.uch 13)thf man cmue again.
I dressed the injury and ti!d him he should

45 years. ' ink lie must have been at

last moments. He had uu bundle of any
sort with him when be came te the dis
pensary. I should net have thought from
his speech that he was totally unacquainted
with Baltimore. His first visit was about
12 o'clock in the day. The wound was
evidently self-inflicted, being in that pai t
f the calf which an assailant could only
attack with difficulty. The in formation
and descriptibu given me Icave no room
for doubt as te who the man was.
He had no money en his person when ha

A visit was next paid te lhe Philadel

where Shaw most likely landed en hi'i ar
rival at Baltimore. Au employee of the

The following dispatch from this county
te the Philadelphia Times correctly reports
some phases of the campaign and the ma
nipulations which affected the results :
" It is new admitted that Sensenig went
into the fisjht for Slehman with a geed
ns'!e-rtip.3iug that in certain districts
Stchin..... 1'iU.nds would support Longe
necker for recorder. In some, notably
Mount Jey and Ceney, thy failed te
carry out this bargain, an4 if this fajluxe
o'clock ; burial at the Mcnnonite meeting
house.
Tne JL'rlinarlcs.
The primary election at Mount .T y j
passed off quietly en Saturday afterneui'. '
Much interest was manifested, but i'n
werK was none quietly, in this it con
trasted favorably with former clectieus
and apparently there was no distribution
of money among the "boys." The interest
was mainly turned te the senatorial con
test. The Examiner party was organized
and steed up for a fair and square liyht.
It is net known whose name " had been
agreed upon" by the Era faction. Ner is
it likely that one will find out, since a
glance at the result will at once bliew
that the seventy-second part of the
reform cemmittee here can't clai.n
any honors. There are none for
that side of the house. Kauffman had 70
votes which gives Stehman a majority of
exactly 100. When the two were candi
dates befere Kauffman carried the borough
by a handsome majority. The reverse
can be traced te different causes and chief
among them is the namby-pamby course
of the New Era. Many who steed up for
the principles that journal advocated
have had their eyes opened by the barter
ing with politicians that that paper indul
ged i. The people have no laith in an
editor who fails te practice what he
preaches, and his efforts are considered
here nothing mere than " gush." The
candidates for representatives Blough,
Eberly and Hoever announced by the
Committee of Seventy-Twe received resp
tively 21, 21 and 23. D. U. Stencr, of thig
borough, get 220 and a geed vote in the
surrounding districts, but he will fall
short of the nomination. There was no
fight en congressman and with no election
eering Hunsecker had 54. The blind
soldier ran far ahead of his contestants,
receiving 175 votes. Al. Shecck had
everything his own way. He ges 197,
while the next best for solicitor, J. H.
F:ey, sceied only 27. The vote en the
