anil lecld.nu el th Day.
Te first et April opened rather gloomily
tba aneir that began falling yesterday con
tinual te fall lightly all night anil thla morn
nit, though In thla city It did net attain an
Inch dapth, melting almost aa fast aa It foil.
In the southern township tbe lall waa much
greater ; In Drtimnre It waa net laaa than
ftvelnche Tbe threatening condition et tbe
waather mada the country people alew te
coma te town, and at 10 o'clock a. tn. there
were net hall the number el country car
riages aeen en the atreeta that have hereto
lore been aeen en the great annual aettllng
day. All the Incoming tralna en ihe railroad,
however, were crowded, the betela at which
the country lelka are went te atop were eoen
filled, and but I new rmtter were talked of
among the guest The bank were alae
thronged with cuatemera almeat from the
hour of epenlng.and the preapect l that a big
bualneaa will be done at all of them.
A noticeable feature at the banka ta the
unusually large number el "plain" people In
attendance, with their long hair, bread-brim
med beta, and buttenleaa garment They
all appeared te have money and te be ready
te wipe out el 1 aoerea or a Id aemelhlng te
former depe.lt
Tba two tralna from 0.uarryvllle thla
morning brought te Lsncaaier between 600
and 700 passengers s greater number than
haa been carried en any prevleua Brat or
AprlL, Tha down train from Keadlng
brought only about 150 passenger
All the tralne'en the Pennsylvania railroad
ware crowded, and an extra train from Lea
man I'laea and Intermediate atatlena brought
In 2S0 passenger
The MUleravllle railway company ran
extra ear all day.
Inquiry at the banka ahewed that money
waa unuaually plenty and that the depeetla
at every bank exceeded the withdrawal
Meney lendera were anxleua te place their
aurplua capital and oBered it aa low aa 4 and
& per cent and they had difficulty te Inveat
It even at these figure
A vl.lt te the aeveral banking Inatltutlena
at 2 o'clock thla afternoon ahewed them te
have been In full blaat all day. The officer
could net at that hour eatlinate the amount
of bualneaa done ; but theae we could reach
report bualneaa satisfactory with plenty of
money te lean en geed par.
A HOUND TIIK COURT HOUSE.
The prothenotary and recorder, with their
corp of clerks, were kept buay all morning,
but at the time of our vlalt It waa tee early
for them te make any eatlmate of the day 'a
transaction It waa believed the number of
Jtulgmenta entered and aatlatled would be
bent the name aa laat year.
The lawyer are of eiurse busy with cl lenta
and bobbing around actively between their
office and the court house. Heme of them
aay the bualneaa of the day will be much
llgnter than uiual, because many people who
have bualneaa te de en the II rat of April new
attend te their notes, Judgments, .ti, a few
daya In advance, and thus avoid the ruab
id eraab of All Foel Day.
Up te 3 o'clock the number of aatlafactlena
entered waa larger than a year age, and the
nnmber of papers Died ler record waa about
the eame aa a year age.
Plcapecaat Speti.ri.
The first of April In yeara gene by waa
alwayaa bensnzi for pickpocket The es
tablishment of banks In the towns through
out the county did away with the payment of
money en that day and the result haa been
that the city has net been troubled with
many of these light-lingered gentry.
Occasionally a few of them have dropped in
en us, but tbey did net steal enough te pay
expense Three pickpockets were seen en
the atreeta te-day, but they left town by the
flrat train when tbey saw that the offieera
were en te them.
Tbe Klag Street Tbsatre.
At the King street theatre the audience
waa very fair laat night, and tbe performance
waa very geed. At one o'clock te-day tbe
band made a short parade, and at 2 o'clock
matinee waa given, which was largely at
tended, eapeclslly by country folks, who had
finished their first of April bualneaa. There

whan boxing will be emitted, and In the eve

TbsAmerlcua club, the meat prominent
Demecratln organization of Philadelphia,
celebrated Itfl twentieth anniversary at Ress
ler'a restaurant en Thursday evening. All
tha bright I Ighta of tbe party In the Quaker
City were present, and there was a geed time
around the banquet beard. There were
several speeches, lien. Samuel J. Randall
responding te tbe Cengreaa el tbe United
Slate" A round or applause greeted tbe an
nouncement and It broke into a cheer as tbe
congressman rose te hla leet, which waa
made three times three In response te a nail
trem Jehn Uuggard. Mr. Randall apeke
slowly and plainly In these werds:
" Tbe banquet committee et the Amerlcus
club have selected me en this occasion te re
spond te tbe toast of 'The Cengreaa or tbe
United State' They might have given me
an easier one, but It Is a tople I will treat
fairly but briefly. William E. Glad
atone, ths greatest orator and auteeman
or modern time has said: ' Aa the
British constitution Is the most subtle
organism which ba proceeded rrem pro
gressive history, ae tbe American constitu
tion ! tbe meat wenderlul work ever struck
off j at a given time by tbe brain of man.'

there be unrest, clashing of Interest, fieree
contention, opposed views as te what la beat
te be done, we must net lerget that auch Is
the nature of freedom and tbat tbe principle
la of little worth that will cot come out purer
and brighter for tbe ordeal It haa undergone,
Noraheuld we forget that our geiernmental
system was tried by an unfortunate civil war,
which strained it te tbe laat degree, but
proved It had a capacity for aell protection
and at the aauie time ba demonstrated the
possession et reserve power for defense and
attack auch aa te secure the respect of all
foreign nation
"Out or tbla war the country baa come
with new lite and vigor and everywhere the
surprising signs of progress In all the mate
rial Improvements of modern clvlllzitlen
are beyond even tbe meat exaggerated ex
pectation It la natural, therefore, te find
in Cengreaa tbe atrugglea for mastery wblch
we have seen, but I knew from long service
in Congress that after tbe smoke and dust
have cleared away and results can be plainly
aeeu It la generally found tbat tbe right baa
triumphed and the wrong ba met with de
feat. The Congress which hss expired re
cently baa bad pretty severe Judgment at
tbe handa of tbe press, but It waa net alto
gether deaerved. it did some things I did
net like and It left undone ether thing I
would llke te have seen done. But when
we consider what was threatened and wbat
waa within the peaatulllllee we ought te be
thankful It did no werae. It did well In
many respect it curbed the defiant spirit
of vast monopolies. It reatored te tbe pub
lic domain millions of aerea of unearned
land grant"
Mr. Randall then rapidly sketched tbe
varieua Important acts passed by Congre,
Including tbat prohibiting the contracting
out of the labor of United State prisoner
prohibiting the Importation and immigration
of foreigners and aliens under contract or
agreement and legalizing tbe Incorporation
of national trades union He then con
tinued : " It best of all atayed Impolltle
action, which probably would have caused
distrust among tbe eeple and perhaps led
te panics and disaster, but certainly would
have delayed If net altogether destroyed the
life and motion weaeeall ever the country

pointed hordes el public plunderera who
of course are all the mero vindictive tbat
their fend hopes et profit have been defeated.
It has, In a word, dune much geed and
avoided doing much evil. And finally, and
te conclude, when It had adjourned strong
complaints were uttered against It for having
left the country defenseless. Then It was
that Pennaylvanla Iren establlahmenta came
forward and offered en reasonable terms te
make all thesteel needed for guns and armor
and relieved much oppressed cabluet officers
from parexyams of apprehension Under
Democratic administration there hss been
honesty ; there has been freedom from
scandal ; there baa been real reform.
Mr. Randall closed hla remarka with a
brief and eloquent tribute te tbe Amerlcus
club, Individually and aa an organization.

Will a Six Yean' Mslarw) Apportionment Stand
the Test et the Lw f
Frem the Scranton Truth.
It is mere than six years since the last
United States decennial census was taken,
and according te the constitution of Pennsyl
vania, It became the duty of tbOBtate legis
lature, Immediately tberealter, te apportion
the state Inte senatorial and representative
district This duty was flagrantly neglected,
and net only tbat, but It has been tinkered
with ever alnce without result, owing te the
desire en both sides te secure partisan advan
tage and shape districts for the personal
gratification et aspiring statesmen. Thus
tbe Important work of apportionment hat
been put oil and tbe clear mandate of the
atate constitution disregarded. The ques
tion new arises is an apportionment maue at
thla time conatitutlenal T Tne letter and the
spirit of tbe organic law clearly Indicate tbat
this Is net tbe time te make an apportion
ment alnce tbe legislature is net In posses
sion of tbe facts necessary for tbe Intelli
gent performance of such a duty. An
apportionment must be based en population
as ascertained by the official census, and this
being the case, any apportionment made
new would be unjust te Scranton, aa the
population of this city has almost doubled
slece the last census waa taken. Whst Is
true of Scranton may be equally true of etber
communities, and we mention It merely te
ahew the absurdity of passing any apportion
men law at this late day, that is based ou
tbe population as ascertained In 1SS0. The
language of the state constitution is clear
and Imperative en this point. It eays :
The general assembly at Us first
session after the adopMen of this
constitution, and immnfiaftfj after each
Uniletl States Ueeennuil census shall appor
tion tbe state into senatorial and represen
tative districts. Surely, the word immedi
ately, read In this sense, means at the first
session after tbe taking of tbe decennial
census, aud at no etber time. The
reason for this ts obvious. Te apportion
the state new Is net making an appor
tionment immediately after any decen
nial census, but rather immediately before
one, as the census et 1S00 will be In order
three yeara hence. Surely this ts net the
sort of apportionment contemplated by tbe
constitution, and there would seem te lie no
wsrrant for making It. The work of appor
tionment properly belonged te the first legis
lature tbat meet after tbe taking et tbecensus
of 1SS0, and having neglected te perform Its
aweru duty in this respect, we de net
think ita negligence can be atoned for by
such an Imperfect apportionment as would be
made new. If tbe constitution means what
It says, and we think It does, neither this nor
the next legislature can lawrully enact an
apportionment bill, because the tlmespeclfied
for the performance of such a duty has long
alnee passed, and there la no official data at
band upon which te base any apportionment
tbat would be Just and fair te the people of
tbe entire atate. But one mete legislature la
te be elected before tbe takiogef the next
decennial census, aud we wish te call attou atteu attou
tlen te the faet tbat the constitution does net
ssy that an apportionment is te be made Im
mediately before, but immediately after each

ground for Demecrata te com plain tbat He
publican officials are net being turned out of
tbe government servlee fast enough. He
aava be baa given tbe subjeet considerable
attention, and he finds tbat nearly all
et tbe Republican postmasters have
been replaced by Democrats, and tbe
same can be said of collectors of customs,
oellectore of Internal revenue and their
subordinates, and el nearly all of tbe etber
branches of the publie aervlce. He predicts
tbat before tbe next presidential election rolls
around there will hardly be a Republican in
any important government position exeept
In the departments at Washington, and they
can be et little or no assistance te their
party, aa their auperler officers can prevent
tbem trem taking an active part in politics

takes a very cheerful and hopeful view el
