LANCASTER, JUKE 12, 1885.
A Withheld Judgment.
The supreme court of Pennsylvania has
adjourned for the summer without final de
termination of the question as te the judi-.
cial district of Butler and Lawience coun
ties. It will be remembered that Butler
was made the constitutionally " separate "
district by the judicial apportionment of
1883, with Lawrcnce "attached," and
te the district thus formed were al
lotted two judges. In the elections
that followed this apportionment Greer,
Rep., and Bredin, Dem., had a plurality of
the,vetes in Butler, but were beaten in the
'consolidated vote of the whole district by
Ilazen, Hep., and McMichnul, Dem., el'
Lawrence, who get the ceitificates of
election ; and their title was confirmed by
Ihe Judgment of the lower tribunal which
was summoned te hear the cubc. They are
acting judges of the dibtrict, and the
singular result is presented of Lawrence,
the " attached" county, supplying two law
and two lay judges for the district, while
Butler, the " beparate " district, author
ized by the constitution and created by the
statute, furnishes none.
Messrs. Greer and Bredin appealed their
cases te the supreme court, maintaining
that as Butler was the ' district," its vote
and its vote alone should elect the judges;
en the ether side it was argued that the
judges of a district should be elected by the
voice of all its voters. The supreme court,
it Is understood, was evenly balanced in its
view of the case ; Judge Green, being ab
sent and net having Ireard the argument,
tog en the Judgment. Se the mat-
standsv,rfiCIOrTt did before ; the judg-
mentef the lower court which was only
a majority judgment and net unanimous
is sustained in a negative sort of a wayi.
and while Judge Hazen aniliU5tficliael
remain lUacte judge3jpjr,ijslrjct) their
title is clouded. lij-tne fact that one judge
ejiteHllff three first convened te hear the
"case below, and threedut of six sunrenie
court judges held adversely te it and TBKf
the opinion that Bredin and Greer Jlcre
rightfully elected. Manifestly the legal
title of theso who sit en the bench te try
titles te property and rights of life and
liberty ought te be clear and unquestioned.
The decision of disputed judicial elections
eughl te be prompt. It must boas uncom
fortable te the sitting judges as it is unjust
te the contestants te have their case thus
hung up, at llie convenience of the su su su
premoceurt judges. Surely the issue is one
of such supreme importance that it ought
te have gene te the top of the list, and have
had the benefit of a re-hearing l)efere a full
bench.
It Is only justice te Judge Bredin te say
that some comments in these columns upon
this famous controversy were liable te the
misconstruction that he and ether Butler
countyDcmecratswero partly responsible for
the atrocious apportionment which yoked
them with Lawrence and w liich has led te
all this trouble. The contrary is the fact.
It was the Eepublican politicians of But
ler, especially Greer, who had the district
thus formed, in order te secure the beuefit
of Lawrence county's big Republican vote.
In his defeat Greer will get no Democratic
sympathy ; but even he is entitled te a
hearing and decision of his claim ; while
Judge Bredin, whose case lias been pre
sented te the supreme court with great
cogency and completeness, has, from every
point of view, just reason te complain that
he is deprived of the benefit of a judgment
which, if even adverse, could net de mere
than keep him out of a scat from which he
is new excluded.
Ne Extra Session .Probable
The failure of the apportionment bill
raises the question as te whether the legis
lature will again be called in extra session
by the governor te perform the duty which
the constitution makes mandatory upon it.
The governor lias net intimated his pur pur pur
pose in the matter, nnd is said te be di
versely advised upon it by his Democratic
counsellers. It is supposed that the reasons
which induced him te call the last extra
session te consider appoitlenment, prevail
with like strength new. But this is hard
ly se. The result of that extra session was
net satisfactory. It demonstrated that the
Republican members would net be in
duced te a fair apportionment by any
amount of consideration of the question.
The same lessen hiis been taught at this
session. The Republican majority is
clearly resolved te apportion the districts
in the state unfairly in its interest. AVilli
this demonstration there is no inducement
te the governor te call an extra session en
this matter.
Xer is tliere much better reason te ex
pect that the legislature would, in an extra
session, legislate as the peeple want it
te de upon the sub'ject of freight dis
crimination. This subject has been treated
at this session in 8uchn way as te wholly
discourage any hope than at an extra ses
sion the same men would lxs inclined te
any adequate legislation ; no law would iw
passed that would net be a delusion. The
question must go ln-ferc Ihe ieople and is
in geed condition te meet them. The leg
islature that is next elected will lxs very
sure te have a sharper appreciation of its
duty in this regard, and te it falieuld the
question be relegated. AVe see no useful
end that can be served by an extra session,
just new atleast, ami we have no idea that
ene will be called.
Why
Entering West Point.
The beard of visitors at West Point is
looking into the matter of the examination
of cadets for entrance te the institution.
At present the, requirements are very
strict in regard te thoroughness of knowl
edge in the elementary branches of educa
tion. Great stress is laid upon proficiency
in the three It's. The applicant must write
well, spell well, read well and be well
posted in geography and history. The idea
is te have a thorough greuud work for the
"West Point educatieu.
And the idea, like most ideas, i3 a great
deal better thau the practice. The first
and very objectionable consequence
is that the sons of rich parents and
of theso resident In the states near
the academy, ceme better prepared for
the peculiar examination than these from
afar off nnd theso with less cash. The ne
cessity for West Point entrance is that the
appointee shall be particularly prepared at
schools established near West Point for
the purpose, or by a tutor who is acquaint
ed with the requirements. The young men
are from seventeen te twenty-two years
old ; at tliis age they have long since passed
through their elementary history, grammar,
geography and signing book, and are net
fresh in the rules which they must have at
their tongue's end te get Inte West Point.
The censequence annually is the failure of
many intelligent young men te pass these
examinations; and they are generally from
distant part of the country .where the West
Point standard is net known, or where
they cannot ceme te the Hudsen liver in
stitute, te be especially prepared for en
trance. Tills objection should sulllce te condemn
the system ; which Is ceudemued with
equal force, however, by the fact that it
gives te the West Point authorities uudue
power te nnnul the nomination of a cou ceu
greman,, which .nomination Js the ceu-
Soveral days nge it wan reported that
Ctillibert n. Jenes, of Louisiana, w-ns te be

inade wero scandalous, and as seen as Cnth Cnth

an oxplauatteu. Mr. Murray said that Con

stMeuient Mr. King was applied te. He
daily donled that he had ever inade such a

slightly deaf, contends that he mis

persons, had lest thelrlives up te the breaking
out of the war, when the graiter vendetta or
the Seuth and the North temierarily obscured
and obliterated the prlvate feud. Tlie Lid
dells nnd Joneses went Inte the Confederate
horviceand distinguished themselves. Tlie
lormer family were particularly unfortunate.
During the Red river campaign, It will be
remombered, Or.int cut the levees nnd the
plantation of the Llddells was almost wiped
out. Reth families lest all thelr slaves, and
that meant from n quarter te half a million
dollars at ene sw oep. Frem J30,000 a year te
helpless poverty was a severe blew. Yet tlie
planters Joined te rebuild the locos at the
elose of the war and their plantations wero
heavily mortgaged te cover the expense
Cel. Jenes secured the mertgage en the
Llddell plantation.
" Alieut this tlme thore wero symptom of
a revlval of the vendetta which nad oxisted
befere the war. The Joneses had turned Re
publicans nnd through the control of the old
slave vete had gobbled up the entire govern
mental affairs. They carried thlngs'Wlth a
high hand. Of eeurhO, they left no opjwr epjwr
tunlly te rub It into their old enomies.
Broken in fortunes and in health, Gen. Lid Lid
dell went te New Orleans te scctire money te
pay oil" his mertgage held by Jenes. As he
came back en a Black river beat he loarned
that during his absouce Jenes had s.eld him
out under the hammer. Lvorybedy looked
for a terrible tragedy when Gen. Liudell ence
moie set feet en his plantation. Tlie
Jenes family anticipated this, and bearded
the beat en her way up unknown te Llddell.
The Jenes, father and two sons, thus came
upon Llddell upwards, nil three pulling pis
tols en sight, literally riddling tlie old man's
body with bullets as he sat at the table. A
mob touched shore, but they were hustled off
ami fuieiy ledged in tlie Harrisonburg Jail.
I said safely ; but only for a tlme. That
night n strong body of Llddell's friends and
a mob of citizens generally made an attack
upon the Jail, breke in unci took the elder
Jenes and one seu out and lynched thorn.
The ether son oscnped."

Frem the Denver New.
Mr. JumesL. Finch gives an account of
Bome curious experiments which he and Dr.
ArmlUge recently made socretly In resusci
tating animals apparently dead.
The first subject operated upon was a
modiiim-slzed torrler deg. It was beeurely
tied nnd an incision made lu an artery in his
neck, by i lilcli the animal was bled te death.
He certainly passed through all the symp
toms of dying, und seen after the hist bleed
Issued from the wound his f rume became fixed
and rigid and ills eyes showed the senseless
glure of death. The room woskeptatatempor weskeptatatempor woskeptatatemper
ntuio of 7fP Farenhelt, while the deg lay for
three hours dead. By this titue he had
become very still' nnd cold. He was new
placed in u warm water bath that was con
stantly maintained at a tomperaturo of 105,
aud was continually and thoroughly rubbed,
and as lie became pliant his limbs were
gently worked ubeut and his whole body
tendered supple. A half pint of het water
was new passed into his stomach through a
hard rubber tube which was forced down his
(esophagus. Wheti this was accomplished
the mouth of u rubber tube, attached te a
bellows, was introduced into his windpipe,
and as the bellows wero provided with u
deuble vnlve, by which the air eeuld be
withdrawn as well as inhaled, the deg's nese
was securely fastened.
A large uiiil powerful Newfoundland deg
had been obtained for the purpose, had been
tied near by, aud was new bled, while the
attending surgeon proceedeil te adjust the
transfusing apparatus, and began slowly te
Inject the live deg's bleed into the dead deg.
Simultaneously Mr. Armltage began slowly
working the respiratory bellows, while X
kept rubbing the animal and bending his
limbs und body te facilitate circulation. We
could net lunu been mero anxious ubeut the
issne or our ctlbrts if they had becn made
upon a human being instead of a dumb brute.
When n pint et bleed had been Injected. I
eeuld see seme change about the eyes of the
deg ; but no ene speke. One thought was
common te all would life ceme back 1 lu n
few moments mere there was certainly u con
vulsive tremor noUceable In the body. Mr.

It is a perilous read from the hand of the

gamblers who trade In oil, according te the
reiiert of the president of the New Yerk oil
exchange, have lieught and sold crude cer
tificates during the tast year amounting te
2,8.'(0,(52l,0OO Uirrels. This is nluety-llve times
tlie whele annual production, according te
the calculation of the New Yerk Tribune.
Or, supposing that there areSOO business days
during the year, this oxchange succeeded in
soiling the entire annual product of oil about
once in every three days. The ethor oil ex
changes have dene a proportionately exton exten exton

this twisting and turning and buying and
selling et paper oil are paid at last by the
