THURSDAY EVENING. FEB. 22. 1883
A Stout Champien.
The cause of the people against the
Standard oil company has found its fit
test champion in Franklin B. Gewen, in
CTh fpnrlP?sness. ability and incer
ruptibility the supremest confidence is
felt. Mr. Gewen is se customarily sue
cessful in his undertakings that the bat
tle is considered half wen when he is in
the lead. The reason is that he is always
found te be the champion of the truth,
as he understands it at least ; and his
understanding is usually geed. There is
an irresistible force in virtue that needs
t...t i ief innsp in hp. victorious. The
fearless, honest and intelligent spirit
who is inspired te vigorously take the side
of the truth that he finds crushed te earth
is sure te speedily see it rising up under
his feet. Mr. Gewen is often thus re
warded ; and will be again in his present
undertaking. It is safe te say that there
never has been a viler association of men
than is found in the Standard oil com
pany. They are conspirators of the
meanest and darkest complexion. It is
net known that they have ever conspired
te murder, but they have se well shown
that they will de anything necessary te
their purposes that we are at liberty te
conclude that if they have net yet killed
any one who steed in the way of their
thieving accumulations it is because
they have net needed le. They
have obtained the command of se
much money by their nefarious
practices that they have been able te de
pretty much as they pleased with every
one whom they found in their pathway.
It was only a question of cash. Every
one, it is said, has his price, and the
Standard oil company has prospered
under its experience of the truth of this
declaration, and under its disposition
and ability te avail itself of it.
It seems, however, in its struggle te in
set the opposition of the Tidewater Pipe
Line company, te have come across an
odd let of men. The secretary of the
concern they succeeded in purchasing',
but President Bensen they de net seem
te have been se successful with.
They claim, in their affidavits pre
duced in the present litigation before
Judge Church at Meadville, that Bensen
offered te sell out the Tidewater stock te
them, but that they virtuously refused
te buy. Bensen swears, however, that
it was just the ether way ; they offered
and he refused. They proposed te give
him a great price for his stock and a sal
ary of $25,000 a year as president of the
Tidewater concern. The probabilities
are strongly in favor of Mr. Bensen's
telling .the truth ; the only thing against
it is the general distrust of man's incor
ruptibility when strongly tempted;
But this makes as strongly against
the Standard people; since they
ardently desired te gel rid el'
the Tidewater opposition, and it is
net credible that they would refine
President Bensen's offer te sell out te
them its sleck. They never have failed
te buy out opposition. They are as sure
purchasers of rival concerns as is Hie
Western "Union telegraph company.
Moreover, Mr. Bensen's reputation for
veracity and honesty is geed ; while that
of the Standard corporation ellicials
could net be werce. Ne jury could bn
found te credit their oath wli:i their in
terests were involved. It is aeorper.ith n
se obnoxious le the sense of the people
of Pennsylvania that th belief is
universal that its members should
be in the penitentiary.
Mr. Gewen has the warm feeling of
the people behind him in his attack upon
it. He .starts out with the popular ver
dict with him. The Standard oil com
pany is adjudged a common nuisance.
It is an impudent foreign corporation
. that has fastened itself as a Itecli upon
the productiveness of the state, and that
has been allowed by the corruptibility
and supiueness of Pennsylvania ellicials
te destroy the-oil business of the state
and te smother the enterprise of ilh
citizens. Away with it !
Freight Discrimination.
Senater Lee ha", introduced another
bHl te regulate the freight charges of
railroads. It seems te cmbud Mr.
Gewen's ideas. The Legislature will
hardlv adjourn before satisfying the
popular demand in this matter with j
some measure of legislation. There is
but one thing wanted; and that is se ,
eminently just that honest railroad
presidents will be as anxious te concede
as the people are eager te demand it.
It is simply that for like service every
man shall be charged a'ike ; that all
business men shall have au equal chance
for prosperity se far as equal rates
for the carriage of their goods
can give it te them. Pennsyl
vania is tired of being made a mere
highway for the carriage of West
ern products free of charge across her
whole length and breadth. The charges
en freight brought from the Mississippi
and the lakes would net suilice te enable
it te reach as far as Pennsylvania's
borders, if the rates were the same as
these charged for freight moved in
Pennsylvania alone. Unrestricted com
merce between the states is a geed
thing ; but commerce within the states
should be as free of burthen as thai,
across them. And se let our Legislature
see te ittliat commerce in Pennsylvania
is.
Tin: constitution is imperative in its
mandate te the state legislatuie te make
an apportionment. Tne eatli of the
members as well as important public in
terests require that this should be done
this session. The present political divis
ions of the state are neither fair nor ad
justed te the changes in population dur
ing the past ten years. With regard te
an agreement upon what changes
ought te be made there seems te be less
difficulty between the parties en the con
gressienal and judicial apportionments
than en the legislative ; and even in the
distributien of the membeis of Uk. Uk.
Heuse there is'little room under the con
stitutienal restrictions for a wrangle.
It is in the arrangement of sena
terial districts that the greatest trouble
is anticipated, notwithstanding that
one-half the present senators held ever
until 1886. There is no goea reason wny
an apportionment should net be made
and if, as has been threatened by high
Republican authorities, that party pro
poses te resist any attempt te improve
the present legislative apportionment it
may be well te give them an early inti
mation that the Democrats can be as
stubborn for the right as the opposition
for the wrong. The governor has power
te call the Legislature into special
session as often as it shall adjourn with
out doing its plain constitutional duty.
The rumors of Senater Cameren's
resignation are again revived and in
proof of the probabilities of such a step
are cited the facts that he is in very ill
health and discontented with his peliti.
cal situation, that as his party will seen
have a sure majority in the Senate no
less could come te it from his with
drawal, and that this action, signify
ing his retirement from the die
tatership of Pennsylvania Republi
canism, would pave the way te such har
mony in his party here as is necessary te
its future success. Fer some time
political circles in this state have been
mysteriously premised a coming political
sensation, but it is hard te believe
that it is te arrive in this shape.
Mr. Cameren's resignation at this
time or within a few months would
ensure Democratic succession te his
position the elect of a Legislature
in which the Democrats have a majority
en joint ballet. It would cast upon the
Democrats a contest for the position,
and in a partisan view the Republicans
might reap some advantages from it
commensurate with the less they would
suffer in a reduction of their majority in
the Senate.
Seme of the guests at ex-Candidate
Stauffer's catfish supper seem te have get
a hone in the threat.
Sam Cox asks for free timber " en be
half of the men, women and children who
live mere or less surrounded by weed
from their cradles te their coffins."
It is a gratifying proof of international
comity that in Berlin subscriptions were
epeued yesterday for the sufferers from
the American Heeds.
Chicago balievcs that an eunce of pre
ventive is worth a pound of cine and her
pelice authorities are taking rcsolute
mcasuies te suppress the carrying of con
cealed weapons and te provide lire escapes
for school houses.
Turc New Yerk Herald subscription te
the sufferers from the Western Heeds
headed with its own $3,000 have reached
$13,GG9.0G. But a calculation of the ex
penses of the Arien ball, held last night,
and of the money spent upon it and
themselves by the guest, figures out
$219,500 as the cost of this fashion trille.
Latku reports leave little room te doubt
the correctness of the information that Mr.
Rebert A. Packer has died in Flerida.
The universal grief which the confirma
tion of this intelligence will impress upon
his friends is in slight measure assuaged
by the news that loving hands were near
te perform the last sad ministrations of
affection.
It has leaked out that a weii known
lady of New Yerk, a resident of Madisen
avenue, has made three bequests of $1,
000,000 each, but the objects of her b uuty
have net yet been disclosed, and a dozen
different subjects are discussed as meri
torious probabilities among them a
library, au art gallciy aud an Episcopal
cathedral.
Te-day is the ever memerable annher
sary of the birth of the father of his
country. The llippant spirit of the times
may see nothing meie in the occasion
than te remark that " had G. Washington
lived he would have been 151 years old,"
bat the profeuuder and mere reflective
will pause te recall anew that with the
lips-e of generations the memory of
Washington's virtues, the study of his
diameter aud the emulation of his exam
pie aic moie and meie the precious herit
age el his people. He has neither lest his
place in the affections of this nation nor in
the icspect aud homage of the world.

' The seasons are typical of the hopes and

two Men IVlie Sent a Uuinle Valentine meet
With Painful Retribution.
Away back in the West End, en Gest
street, Cincinnati, where three or four
days age the waters et the Heed steed
three feet deep, there was a lively cow-
hiding late last night. Mrs. Wcndel
Daemmcrling gave a terrible thrashing te
Qeorge Meyer and Henry Mishler, two
employees of a distillery, who had each
f cut her a comic valentine, and en which
were inscribed, in their own handwriting,
some obscene sentences in the German
language. It was the writing that was
offensive, and by that Mrs. Daemmerling
identified the senders. Her whip was a
drayman's black snake. Ilcr first victim
was Meyer, whom she held and whipped
till he yelled for mercy, while Mishler
looked en and laughed. Once through
with Meyer the woman laid her fermida
ble grasp upon Mishler and dealt him a
double dose, while the people, looked en,
cheered and laughed. Meyer was tee
badly cut up te enjoy the entertainment.
Mrs. Daemmerling seasoned her blows
with a choice admixture of half German,
half broken English, exclamations, and
wound up the business with the remark
addressed te the spectators, "I gesh dem
fellers be tee schmard te send mc some
mere valentincs already."

The Floods Abating.
The Heeds at Cincinnati aud Leuisville
continued te subside yesterday and h is
expected that business will be resumed
along the river front in the later city in
about a week. The suffering among the

Far the Senators.
Denver Tribune (licp.) Feb. 1C.
On the night of March 2,1883, Senater
Edmunds entertained a select party of
friends at his rooms en K street in "Wash
ingten. The guests were Senators Taber,
Hear. Sherman, Cameren, Legan, Ingalls
and Beck, and a pale, slim gentleman
whom Senater Taber introduced as a Mr.
Hepkins, of Colerado. This genial party
sat around the steve and sipped wine,
smoked cigarettes and recounted literary
reminiscences of Rabelais, Beccaccio and
Balzac until finally Senater Hear proposed
a small game. Mr. Hepkins, the pale,
slim gentleman from Colerado, confessed
te knowing very little about poker, but
the rest of the party insisted upon his
sitting in with them, and he was tee
much of a gentleman te held out. Ac
cerdiugly, when the group arranged
themselves around the table, it was in the
following order :
bed
J f
a. Sherman; b.IIeur; e. Ingalls: d. Came Came
eon ; c, Edmunds:, Legan: , lleck; , Hop Hep
kins; i. Taber.
Senater Sherman caught the first deal,
Senater near auteing up a bright, new
five-dollar geld piece. Mr. Hepkins
passed out, and after the draw and the
betting Senater Cameren took the pet en
jacks and fives. On the next deal Mr.
Hepkins, the Colerado stranger, lest $200
te Senater Hear en three sixes, aud the
kindest sympathy was exprcssed for him
en account of his inexperience and bard
luck. But Mr. Hepkins' ill fertune did net
end here ; he continued te lese steadily
for the ensuing five deals, the wiunings et
the ether parties aggregating about $2,
700. It then came Mr. Hepkins' turn te
deal. Iu spite of Senater Edmunds's ad
vice te draw out, the plucky Colerado
stranger said he would remain a while
longer, and he shufllad the cards with
meie spirit thau would have been expected
of a man in his bad streak of luck. The
pasteboards having been dealt, the gentle
men all drew out with the exception cf
Senater Shermau aud Mr. Hepkins, The
senator steed pat aud Mr. Hepkins took
one card, and the betting began by Shei
man's throwing down a fifty-dollar bill,
which Ilepkius saw aud went a hundred
better. The senator calmly saw the one
hundred aud went five hundred better.
Mr Hepkins looked at his hand, hesitated
a moment, and then said he believed he
felt warranted in seeing the five hundred
and bettering it with one thousand. Sena Sena
eor Sherman smiled sarcastically as he put
up his last one thousand dollar bill aud
called for a check book te make his check
en an Ohie bank for a cool five thousand.
'1 don't understand the game," re
marked Mr. Hepkins, looking paler aud
slimmer than ever. " but I give it out
cold and flat that I'm going te stay with
yc !"
And Mr. Hepkins borrowed seme change
of his frieud Taber, saw Sherman's five
thousand and went him five thousand
better. Theie was new about twenty
thousand dollars in the pet. Sherman b3
gan te grew nervous. He showed his
hand te his friend Hear.
" What shall I de?"' he whisperingly
inquired.
" Seek it te the Recky Mountain suck
er," was Mr. Hear's reply ; " I'll lend you
the money, if you're short et currency."
Se Senater Hear put up for Sherman
with the renrirk, " He c-ces your five
thousand and calls you, Mr. Hepkins "
The pale, slim man from Coleiado laid
down for four beautiful aces.
"Well. I'm ."said Senater Sher
man.
Mr. Hepkins gathered up the pet amid
a cold silence.
"I will never stand pat en four kings
again," said Soaater Sherman.
"Mr. Hepkins seems te be in better
h'ck." suggested Senater Taber.
" Yes," said Mr. Hepkins, "in such
geed luck I beliove I'll draw out."
"Oh, sit awhile louger" expostulated
Senater Hear ; " we'll all be going in a
few minutes."
Just then Senater Plumb came into the
the room. The first person he saw was
Mr. Hepkins gathering up his pile of
money.
"Why, hello Bewen !" he cried. "Yeu
here ?"
"Well, yes, iu a quiet seit of way," re
sponded Mr. Hepkins.
" Bewen ?" exclaimed Sauater Ed
munds ; "Bewen '.' Ne, you are mistaken
Plumb. This is 3Ir. Ilepkius, a friend of
Seuater Taber."
Senater Plumb broke into a loud lejg
laugh. Senater Shcrmau looked offended;
se did Senater Edmunds and the rest e:'
them all except Senater Taber, who
seemed te be embarrassed about some
thing. " I see it all," cried Senater Plumb, as
seen as he managed te repress his laugh
ter : " Taber has been playing one of his
jokeiou you. Hepkins, indeed? Why
this is Tem Bewen, the new senator from
Colerado, and the rattlingist poker artist
in America."

A Weman Bound, Gagged ana KebbeJ.
Jeseph Pinter, night watchman at
Yuengling's brewery, Pettsville, came
home early te see his wife, who is 53
years old and who remains in the house
alere, lying en the fleer in a dying condi
tion. Her hands were tied behind her
back. A handkerchief was found stuffed
into her mouth. Her nostrils had been
filled with paper. She wa3 unable te move
and was very weak. When released from
her bends she could net rise or stand-without
assistance and bleed gushed from her
nose. She was at once placed in bed,
where she new lies in a pitiable condition.
It appears that before Mrs. Pinter went
te bed she walked through the house, in
order te see that everything was in order
for the night, when, suddenly, she was
seized by a man. Te prevent her from
making any outcry he tied a handkerchief
between her teeth.
The fellow then unlocked the front deer
of the house and admitted an accomplice.
The two bound the woman, as described.
They found $9, it is said, en the premises
and with this decamped. They did the
woman no further injury that te bind and
gag her, and then leave her lying en the
fleer, where she remained during the long
hours of the night, enduring physical pain
and mental anguish of the most active
character. The burglars are still at large.
That evening an unkuewn man had
come te see Pinter, and the unsuspecting
wife went for her husband, leaving the
stranger alone in the house. Wheu they
get back the strauger could net be seen.
They searched the house, but he could
uet be found. It is new known that he
was secreted in au upper room.

A desperate fight occurred in Philadel

2-1 years, in a bearding house at Ne. 123
North Twcnty-thiid street. The men are
herse car diivers, and there has been a
feud between them for some time, owing
te the refusal of Gardiner, te whom Cav
anagh had bean oemmltted for instruc

proficient te take charge of a car.
This caused Cavanagh's discharge.
