VOL. A. WILSON SORRIS TECHNICALLY
AS EMHEZZLER.
FHlture te Forward II In Account its Tension
Agent nt Philadelphia for the Menth or
June Leut Causes Trouble In the De
INtrtmetit ut Washington.
It Is stated at tbe treasury department that
A. Wilsen Norrls,lale pension agent at Phila
delphia, U causing the accounting officers of
that department no llttle trouble because of
his fallure te forward Ills accounts Ter tlie
month et June last Mr. Nerrls was re ro re
meved en July 7th, and, according te the
treasurer's reperts had, up te July 2lst,
failed te account for advances amounting te
9170,117. Jiulge Williams, third auditor of
the treasury, has soveral times requested
him te forward his accounts for examination,
but se iar Mr. NerrLs lias net taken tbe
slightest netice of hls'letters.
In making his last formal request the
third auditor called Mr. Nerrls' attention te
Sections 3,632 and 6,491 of the revised
statu tes, which rcqulre that all ofllcers who
held public funds for disbursement shall
ronder a monthly account within ten days
alter the expiration of each successive
month, and rrovlde tbatefllccrs who (all te
comply with this requirement shall be
deerned guilty of oinbelenient and subject
te (Ine and imprisonment. This lotler, It Is
said, has produced no better etlect than its
predecesser, and the deiwrtincnt elllclals are
in somewhat of a quandary as te hew te pro
ceed. Thore are no imputations against the
official Integrity of Mr. Nerrls, and the ac
counting elllci.ils are at it les te undci stand
his conduct
The revised statutes abeve lofericd te pro pre
vido that failure te repert monthly, unless
time te de se has been extended bv the secre
tary of tbe treasury, shall be proof of ciiiIhv. ciiiIhv.
zlement, and the olllcer ceuIctcd of that
crime shall be lined In a sum equal te the
amount embezzled, ai'd shall be imprisoned
net less than six months nor inore than ten
rears.
As the matter new stands. Third Auditor
Williams sayH that Nerrls is technically an
embezzler, and if he escapes punishment it
will be through leniency en the part el the
secretary of the treasury.
Colonel Neri Is is at present net In Phlla
adclphla. Mr. Iluckle, his clerk, who has
been preparing the accounts of the pension
office for the last month of his chief's occu
pancy of the place, was found at his l evi
dence. He said that only one letter had been
received from the department slnce Colonel
Nerrls left his lKwltlen, and that within u few
days. "The $170,117 referred te In the ills
patch," said Mr. Iluckle, "nover lias been in
the possession el Coleucl Norris, nor could
he draw against it- The mouey, as the
people at 'Washington knew, Is ut the pres
ent moment in the treasury department. It
is there te Colonel Nerrls' credit, but he
could net new, nor at any tlme slnce his re
moval, draw against It. The money Is te his
credit as disbursing elliccr, and as he is no
longer such he has nopewor oer it. Of
coitrseuntll the account are all In this money
remains 'clinically te his credit and cannot
be covered Inte the treasury until theso no
counts are irescntcd and audited. The delay
in presenting theso accounts is owing te the
fact that they are being m.ide up by Colonel
Nerrls' own clerks, and are Aery tedious.
They will be sent down In a few days new.
The paragraph was probably given out be
cause the treasury department people
wanted te' spur Colonel Nerrls up witti his
accounts. They knew very well that he
nevtrliuu Uie money In his possession, and
that the tronble, If any, Is the delay In send
ing the accounts down, owing te the facts
ulready staled." .' ...
Chief Clerk Shclmlrc. who wosretainedby
Pension Agent Davis, said that he knew
nothing about the matter, but felt sure that
the treuble was only a delay in the- sending
in of the accounts wblch were new being

Mr. Day, the Democratic nominee ler Mate
treasurer, will grew in eMcem as lie becomes
better known. We use that term iu a quali
fied sonse, for Mr. Day is already known
throughout the Matoasamethodical, straight
forward, reputable merchaut, with a tocerd
as clean and manly as his many geed quali
ties are tempercd by modesty and real, solid
weith. Hut he Is net known as a politician,
und in that rcsnect he Is the very antithesis of
his competitor, Mr. Quay. The latter, allfth.
long prolcssienal politician, -who Knows
and seeks te knew nothing else; and who
has grown rich and powerful from spoils
aud tbelr dispensation ; a man of low, com
mon, vulirur tastes: a disronutable traf
ficker in party ivatronagej a pardoner
et legislative doeauchors ; a parasitoupen the
body politic, grown rich aud arrogant by
leiu immunity from his ust deserts. That
such a man should be ollered as the repro repre
sentatlv e candidate for the important olllce of
treasurer of Pennsylvania, of the once proud
ltepublican party, is verily "an Insult te the
lntolllgence and lutregity of the people."
The Issue Is plain, distinct and unequivocal.
It Is between the efficient, cqultahle and
honest administration of government, and
the prostitution of government te personal
aggrandizement and corrupt ends. Ne man
who believes In the success of ltepublican
rule ; w he cherlslies n leve for free, popular
institutions, and who seeks their success and
maintenance can long hositate as te his course.
The highest geed of the ltepublican party
demands that Mr. Quay should be dereated ;
geed government, which stands abeve and
beyond oil considerations of party supremacy,
further emphasizes that demand, and with
defeat will come regeneration.

Hns. iNTELLiOKNCtn, With the closing
days of August terminates tbe two month'
vacation of tbe schoolboy, who but a short
time age, with bright anticipations of an end
less vacation, threw aside his book and slate
and bade farowell te the old school-house and
all tbe associations and endearments which
cluster around the school and Its teacher.
Few tears wero shed, whorl the moment for
dismissal came, and as the doers Hew open,
the whele school rushed forth te tnlngle with
nature, who with outstretched arms steed
ready te recclve and carry them beyond the
limits of school weik te her valleys and
hlllsides there te begin her work amid
the sports and pleasures of childhood as the
greatest of all teachers. During theso
two months nature prescribed no rules, the
bread Holds were her only limits, and from
Hunrise te sunset nor eniy ueurs. l no suoe
less feet, unwashed face, and brenred com cem com
iilexion of her scholars gave ovidenco that
lier teachings wero net of the text book. The
tired body, the Increased nnpotlte, the sleep
ful nights, and the vigor el body and mind
te the ence etnaciated frame and sallow
countenance, all prove what priceless benefits
liave resulted from what many consider a
less of time te their children. And as the
tlme draws near and the llttle ones are gath
ered in from the by-ways, with what bright
anticipations de thev leek forward te the du
ties which nwnlt them! The old and bat
tered garments nre cast aslde"; the satchel
which was ruthlesslv hum: in some nook or
corner but n short time age Is ence mere
strapped evor the sheulder and with sun sun
shlne Illuminating every I eat u re, the school
room is reached a half hour bofero the open
tap exercises begin.
What has caused this euildcu reaction In
the youthful mind ? Are net the same trials
and dilllcullies te be cncounteied fiem day
te day 7 Ne ene realizes moie fully than the
schecl boy what a lessen in grammar or
urlthirotle means. And yet there are no
obstacles tee great te discournge him In his
determination te succeed. "H was all work
and ue play that made Jack iv dull boy" and
se It was tee much brain weik and tee llttle
oxerciso and sunshine during a ten months'
term within the walls et tbe school room
that made vacation a necessity te both
teacher and pupil.
We fear that many of our teachers, llke
many parents, are Inclined te leek upon the
two mouths' vacation us se much lest time,
and that in order te inake up for this waste
of time, greater tasks and longer lessens will
be necessary, thereby resulting in the fatal
mistake se common among many of our
teachers of cramming the minds of their
jeung pupils from the beginning te the clo-e
of the school term. It Is In tbe ever-taxing
of the mind of the young pupil with u mul
tiplicity of bchoel room work, that eftlmes
dwarfs the whole nature of the child and
uullLs him for any position of usefulness in
afterlife. Frem the beginning or the school
term te the clese many teachers hav'e
but ene object in Alow and that Is te prepare
their pupils for the final examination at the
clese or the term. As their own standing
depends upon the ene hundred per cent te
be reached by each aud every pupil, te
reach the goal of their ambition, a romorHO remorHO romerHO
less system of cramming is resorted te and
porseverod In te the end of thosetision. The
healthy development of the child's nature
Is overlooked, and in fact all teaching which
docs net have direct reference te the final

There bave been a few cemplulnts made
by the newspaicr publishers that some of
(heir papers have net reached subscribers as
seen us they ought te have reach ed them,
and it has been inferred that the delay lias
been caused by the inoxperlonco of the new
clerks in the postefllce. Tills would be a
roesonablo explanation of the matter, if tlie
new clerks wero in dharge of the olllce j but
it be happens that both tlie old and the new
clerks have been en duty during the past
month, aud If thore has been any unneces
sary delay they must share tlie responsi
bility. Dtit there are better explanations of tbe do de
lay than these abeve stated. In n brief in
terview with the postmaster and his assist
ants this morning, we are infermed that ene
of the complaining publishers sent his mail
tee late te catch the Quarryvllle cars, al
though the mail was kept open until the last
mement In erder te accommodate him. An An
other publisher complained that his pack of
papers for Lincoln Ktofllce had mis
carried. Investigation shovved that the
pack had net been sent te tlie Jancaster
postefllce, and, of course, could net be for
warded. It sometimes happens that packs
et papers are received at tbe postefllce, en
w Inch thore Is no address the mailing clerks
iu the printing nlllces having put tbe ad
dress en se carelessly that It Is lest lie fore
reaching the postetltco. Such picks have te
be retained until the address is furnished,
and in this way they sometlmcs miss the
mall. Again, It sometimes happens that
packages are dropped from the big
baskets or barrows In which the
papers ure carried from the newspaper
efllccs te the Kslofllce, and are occasionally
lest In ether instances the less of papers or
the delay In their delivery may be traced te
Imperfect direction, or carelessness en the
part et county carriers or postmasters. Ac
cidents and delays such as theso abeve In
dicated are common iu all postefllces, and
have existed In the Lancaster postelllco. time
out of mind ;und. wheu the iinmcnse busi
ness of the olllce is taken Inte consideration,
and the great number of men und boys
through whose hands the mails pass both be be bo
eoro and after they reach the KstoiUee, the
wonder is that mere packages are net leM or
delayed. The public need have no fear that
the oflice under Mr. Klaymakcr's adminis

Chauncey M. Depew Make Berne Keniarke uu
the Prepettd Batiread Deal.
Chauncey M. Depew, president of the New
Yerk Central railroad, was asked by the New
Yerk Tribune correspondent what he
thought of the action of Attorney General
Cassldy, of Pennsylvania, In bringing a suit
te prevent the sale oftbeHouth Pennsylvania
and lleech Creek read te the Pennsylvania
railway company. In reply, speaking with
seme deliberation, Mr. Depew said : " Twen-ty-seven
gentlemen unite te build a rail
road and they de It with the sole ebect
of making money. They have only a par
tially completed read when seven-tenths of
thorn deefde that they would llke te part
will) their interest in we enterprise ' auu an
they have get te sell te a charter,a let of holes
In the ground, seme culverts, some grading
and a partially purchased right of way.
They have no bridges, equipment, or any
of the paraphernalia of a railroad. The at
terney general steps In the day before the
Democratle state convention meets and
asks for an Injunction te restrain
these gentlemen from selling their
interest te the Pennsylvania rail
road company, the only person capable of
buying, en the ground that lliese sundry
holes In the ground are a rival and compet
ing Una He proposes te make the state of
Pennsylvania say te such of these gentlemen
as de net want te kcep or cemplete their
interest in the enterprise that they ahatl net
sell out Te be logical, the state ought te say
that they shall go en, build and equip tlie
read, and that it will guarantee them against
any less en the transaction.
Thn UppcIi Creek Ihh completed coal read
about 100 miles long, which brings out bitu
minous coal from Clearileld county. Tlie
practical result of the attorney general's
suit would be te prevent the people who
built the read from soiling It If they round
that it would be better rer them te part with
this property than te attempt te run it Se
that the sale or a read net one-third built
and a coal line 101) miles long Is the whele
foundation for the prcsent political hyste
rics In Pennsylvania. It is fair te presume
that it any laws have beeu violated or out
.rages committed against tlie commonwealth
or its constitution, that the public ofllcers
whose duty It is te protect the interest or the
state would have moved In the matter with
out the Importunate urging that they received
lrem their party cenv ontien. Any ethor con
struction does great lnjustlee te gentlemen
for whose integrity and ability I have the
greatest respect."
"Can anything be accomplished by the
suit?"
"Nothing could he accomplished by It
My opinion as n lawyer is there Is no ground
rer such tu action, and that It will be se held
by the courts."
BHTTLKJIKNT Of Till! HAILttOAII WARS.
" What prospect is there for an early set
tlement or the rallretd wars7" Mr. Depew
was asked.
"nverything," lie said, "as tending te
a settlement of the railway wars. It Is fair
te leek from the costly oxpcrlenco et the
last row years te an adjustment or dilfer

The Pennsylvania Domeerats have nomi
nated for state treasurer Mr. Cenrad B, Day,
a nun who furnishes a complete contrast le
the extraordinary candidate prosentod by the
Republicans. Mr. Day is, according te the
leading Republican organ of tlie state, the
Philadelphia lress, "a business man of geed
ropute, against whom nothing can be said,
and for whom nothing of special personal or
political ferce can be montlenod." Nobody
weuut no aoietosay tuat ei tue ivepuuucau
candidate, Colonel Matt Quay. His only
busluess for years has been politics of the
worst sort, aud there is very llttle in his
record which Ids most dovetod friends would
think el speaking of as being or "geed re re ro
pueo." Betw eon him and Mr. Day no honest
veter in the state could hositate for a moment
ir iitness wero the only question entering
Inte the decision. As we understand it the
Republicans are net urging Quay's election
en tlie ground or litness, but are supporting
him because he is the party nomlneo, and
because Pennsylvania, being se loyal a Re
publican state that it gave Blaine a majority
or 60.000, can be dopeudod upon te elect the
regular candidate, no matter what his record
may be. We doubt If there Is any ether
state In the union in which the party ceutu
be sately put te such an oxtremo test as this.
