THE OLDJUG LAW Recalled by Andrew G. Curtin, - the War Governor, Who i Says That the GREAT ISSUE IS IN DOUBT. Blur, Center and Clearfield Comities Claimed for Prohibition.

Our staff correspondent finds that the counties of Blair, Center and Clearfield are claimed by the Prohibitionists by vari ously estimated majorities. Ex-Governor Curtin is interviewed on the subject, but de clines to express a decided opinion, except that he thinks the issue is in doubt There is a probability that if the amendment is interpreted to exclude the manufacture and sale of cider, the farmers will vote against it rrsou oub sracui. couxissioras. - Bellefonte, February 25 Punch your pencil through the map of Pennsyl vania at that little dot designating the town of Bellefonte, give the paper a gentle push, and with perfect equipoise the parch ment will continue to revolve as easily as though the axis had been fixed with the nicety of fine measurement and greased with fairy oil. Just to what extent this equili brium will be destroyed on June 18 by western majorities for Constitutional amend ment, and eastern majorities against it, the weight of the ballot boxes alone will deter mine, but it rather looks now as if the Pro hihitionists had captured the geographical center of the State too. Center county, of which Bellefonte is the capital, has always inclined toward reform in everything socially, politically and mor ally. In 1854 she gave 2,438 votes in favor of a prohibitory law and only 1,879 votes against it The county's prominent part in agitation for popular education secured for it the location of the Pennsylvania State College. "When a man was needed to wrest the gubernatorial scepter from the hands of a Democrat at the outbreak of the war of the rebellion, Center furnished him in the person of Andrew G. Curtin, and to protect the State from invasions the county con sented to let him remain a second term in the Executive Mansion. beaver's home. In 1873 Center adopted local optiftn law riv 1.438 msioritv. Also in 1S86 she sent forth the Moses who again led the Bepub lican party in the State to victory after a season of Democratic rule Governor James A. Beaver. Therefore, temperance people in Belle fonte think, that so far as a record is con cerned. Center county can promise much of encouragement in this and all other move ments lor the deliverance of the masses. They point to the fact that there are only about 23 licenses now allowed in.the countv, and say that while the number of saloons in past years has been gradually decreased, the sentiment for prohibition has steadily grown. Bepresentatire Holt, a Democrat and a temperance advocate, puts the ma jority for the amendment at 2,000. The majority of people, however, think he is too high, and agree on about 1,000 as the proper figure. ,P. Grey Meek, the well-known Democrat, however, while reminding me of these esti mates on all sides, said that a great deal de pends on what questions are discussed in the campaign. He expected that if the farming element in Center, for instance, came to understand that the amendment would prohibit the manufacture and sale of hard cider they would generally vote against it, and that might put the majority on the other side of the tally sheet He believed, nevertheless, that the town of Belleionte would vote for the amendment THE WAR GOVERNOR. Ex-Governor Curtin, still hale and hearty, was found at his home on Main street His rugged face and robust form, although re calling a. weather-beaten mariner, at the same time saucily invite another decade or two of years to give him a chance to show which is the strongest Tee Governor was non-committal. When I asked him how he thought Center county would vote he replied that he did not participate in local politics and hadn't the slightest idea of even Belleionte's position on the issue. "When I inquired about his views of the contest in the State at large, he declared that he was so busily engaged in literary pursuits that he had read but little of the current sentiment, and was incompetent to form an intelligent estimate. 'He believed, however, from his general knowledge of the characteristics of Pennsylvania, and Penn sylvania people, that the election would be very close and the result exceedingly doubtful. "When I suggested that his long experience as Governor and statesman may have left with him some reminiscences of temperance legislation and reform move ments that would prove interesting at this time to the public, he could simply recall, on the spur of the moment, THE JTTG LAW which he, as Governor, between 1861-7, signed, and which was subsequently re pealed; the "Buckalew bill" and the local option laws of various periods and locali ties. The jug law was so called because it prohibited the sale of liquor in less than quarts. It was found to be impracticable, so public opinion a year or two later de clared. In the conversation that followed the fact happened to be mentioned that Allegheny county had raised $5,000 for the prohibition cause and the State Prohibition Convention also raised nearly 57,000 at Harrisburg for the campaign. "I'm sorry to see money become a factor i n this campaign," said Governor Curtin. "It's a bad thing in politics. It would be better if all elections, and especially this one in June on prohibition, could be conducted without it" "Well, but there are legitimate expenses to be borne," I suggested, and then, when "the old war horse" still dissented, I re minded him that money was raised by the thousands at public meetings during war times, and in the .earlier abolition excite ment "Ah, but that was for a great and patriot ic cause." he said. ''It was a different thing. Tee country was then in danger, and money was actually needed, and it was right under those circumstances, for people to give of their means. Ko harm could come of the use ot the money." SECEET HISTORT. The Governor has nearly completed the manuscript of a book on his six years' . official reminiscences oi the war. It will $ be especially devoted to Pennsylvania's ; part in the great conflict Much secret cor- f respondence, which passed between Gov ernor uurun, rresiaent .Lincoln, the Secre tary of War, spies and Generals of the army, which has never before been made public, will be included in the work. This feature alone, so Mr. Curtin told me, will form a very valuable addition to general war history. His review of the battle of Gettysburg will also contain new matters. The writing has taken np the greater part of the Governor's time for two or three years past Clearfield county adjoins Center on the west It is predicted by politicians there who are unbiased thai the major ity in the county will be be tween 1,000 and J, 500 in favor .of the amendment In 1873 local option was adopted by 480 majority. Then, however, the conntv's total vote was only about 3,000. Now it is'11,000. A2T INDICATION. One of the best indications of the temper ament of the people is the fact that Senator Betts, the successor of Hon. William A. Wallace as Clearfield's representa tive at Harrisburg, was one ol the two Democrats in the Senate who voted, for the submission reso lution. The great industry of the county is bituminous coal mining. The output is now enormous, and thousands of diggers are emnloved. These are Welsh. English. Irish and 'Swedes. There are some Hun garians, and a carload of inlanders ar rived at Brisbin last week. The first thing they did was to make a break for a saloon. Hot being able to stake the bartender ap preciate the mvsteries of the Finland tongue, they demonstrated the quality of the Finland appetite by picking up one of the ornamental "rocK ana rye" comes oy the mirror and trying to suck something from its fancy neck. However, the Welsh miners are a re markably intelligent class. Over at Du Bois, Mr. John Du Bois, the well-known millionaire, told me that the Welsh miners in that section of Clearfield county are the most ACCOMPLISHED MUSICIANS in the neighborhood, many of them playing three and four instruments, and all of them sustaining a brass band and singing society. In Clearfield town I am told the same char acteristics distinguish them in the lower part of the county, and that as a whole this air of refinement will give the votes of Welsh and English coal miners at least to Constitutional amendment John M. Par rel, one of Clearfield's representatives in the House at Harrisburg, digs coal when at home in Houtzdale, and he voted for the submission resolution. There are about 51 liquor licenses in the whole county. One of these is in the name of John DuBois, he- being the real owner of the largest hotel in DuBois City. Phillipsburg and Osceola Mills are tbe next largest towns in Clearfield and DuBois. Chairman B. D. Swope, of the Bepnblican County Committee, estimates the majority for prohibition here at from 1,000 to 1,500. RAILROAD MEN DIVIDED. Blair county will also give a majority of votes for the amendment Its chief town, Altoona, now has a population of about 28,000, with only 18 licensed bars. The Pennsylvania Railroad car shops there have 5,000 employes. I was told by one of the foremen that this army of workmen is probably about evenly divided on the issue. In the paint shop the other day a straw vote was taken ana prohibition got the smallest ballot In the machine shop, however, the amendment had a majority. Most of the men employed in the railroad shops are industrious, temperate and the possessors of small bank accounts or their own homes. There are but few foreigners among them. Several persons have from time to time asked me what are the railroad corporations going to do in tfce ejection? Will they not Be influenced bv the immense treight traffic which they would lose if all the breweries and distilleries in the State are wiped out of existence? RAILROAD INFLUENCE. The car loads of supplies they haul throughout the State for breweries and dis tilleries number thousands in a year and their tonnage in liquor casks is also very great It will be generally admitted 'that the Pennsylvania Railroad and the Phila delphia and Beading Railroad are both powerful when they chose to take a hand in politics. But here in Altoona, a city which owes its existence ana present prosperity to the Pennsylvania Railroad, that great cor poration has not shown the slightest move ment to control votes. On the other hand their employes seem to be lell free and un trammelled to vote as they please. Blair county adopted local option in 1873 by 1,470 majority. J. L. Plummer, Chair man of the Bepnblican County Committee, predicts 2,000 majority for the amendment Businessmen themselves in Altoona will (prove the greatest opponents of the amend ment They are afraid the thriving city's commercial interests and the county's mount ain summer resorts will suffer it all licenses are abolished.

Word has just been received here from Mrs. Herman Kcmpinski confirming a recent re port that her husband has been arrested in Bussia and sentenced to banishment to Si beria for treasonable utterances against the Bussian Government and evading the mili tary service required. He came to this country when 17 years of age, and in 1873 came to this city. Ten years later he became a naturalized citizen of the United States. He was successful in business, and last summer returned to his native land with his wife. Soon after his arrival there he was arrested and thrown into prison. His wife has spent most of their savings in endeavoring to procure his release, but to no effect, and she has applied to friends in this city for assistance. His counsel, J. B. Klein, will lay the matter before the au thorities in Washington in a few days. JUST A LITTLE WHITEWASH. Many Irregnlarltles, But Nevertheless it Is Still n Model Institution. Topeka, KAS.,February 25.-711118 after noon the report of the Penitentiary Investi gating Committee was presented simultane ously in both Houses of the Legislature. It is a document of 15 pages of printed matter and is very interesting. The report wholly exonerates the penitentiary officials, but calls attention to many irregularities, especially concerning the coal output and the use of prison labor in the manufacture of articles of various character for private indiaiduals. Captain Smith (warden) is commended for his able management ot the institution, and the Kansas Penitentiary is referred to as a model institution. EED-KOSED MIKE SENTENCED.

McClure on the 19th of June last, was argued before Judge Bice this morning. A stubborn fight was made for the defendant by his assigned counsel, but all to no avail, the Judge promptly overruling the motion and pronouncing the death sentence. After the death sentence had been pro nounced Mike was led to the prisoners dock in the courtroom and handcuffed. On being taken to the prison van he wept bit terly. Held Ills Brralb Too Lour.

C1TI 18 ALL BIGHT NOW, And Can Stay in the Third Class at feast Until After tbe Kcxt Census. Justice Green, of the Supreme Court, handed down an opinion yesterday explain ing the decision which threatened trouble in Allegheny City's government According to this latest decision Allegheny can stay in the third class until her increasing popula tion pushes her up a peg. rsrscur. tzlzgbjlm to thx DisriTCH.i PniLADEDPHiA, February 25. In the case of the city of Beading against Savage, in which the Supreme Court recently re versed its own decision and held the act of May 23, 1874, regulating the affairs of cities of the third class, to be Constitutional, Jus tice Green this morning delivered the fol lowing opinion: "In the case of the appeal of the city of Scranton School district, 113, p. 176, the question before us was the constitutional ity of the proviso to the fifth section of the act of March 18, 1875. That proviso is in these words: 'That no city of the third class, nor any city of less population than 10,000 inhabitants, heretofore incorporated, shall become subject to the foregoing pro visions of this act until the same are accept ed by an ordinance duly passed by a major ity of the members elected to each branch thereof voting in favor of the same, and ap proved by the Mayor. INTERPRETED LITEEALLT. "In its literal terms this is a disabling and an excluding enactment No city of the third class, nor any city of less popula tion than 10,000 inhabitants, previously in corporated, could become subject to the provisions of the act until the passage and anoroval of an appropriate ordinance, al though such city might have already formally accepted the provisions of the act of May 23, 1874, by complying with the re quirements of the fifty-seventh section of that act, and thereby entitled itself to a place among the cities of the third class. The act of 1875, therefore, . had no application to any of these cities in the first instance. Hence there' was not, and there could not be, any class of cities covered by the description contained in the proviso until a class was made up by individual accessions, which, naturally, would occur, if at all, only in an isolated and special manner. As to all those which had been previously incor porated, a double acceptance was made nec essary; first, of the provisions of the act of 1874, under the fifty-seventh section of that act, and second, of the provisions of the act of 1875, under the proviso of the fifth sec tion. - WHAT WAS MEANT. "The proceedings upon acceptance under the two acts are quite dissimilar, and, with out a strict conformity to both, no city pre viously incorporated could have the bene fit of the act of 1875. Those cities which in reality did accept both acts would thus, in fact, become a class by themselves, and that class could only be made up by individual accessions from time to -time; but it might very easily happen that only a single city, or at most a lew, would adopt the double acceptance made necessary by the act of 1875, and in that event "the new class thus created would be limited to that one or those few. This result, which was entirely possible, made the legislation local, and brought it into conflict with the seventh section of the third article of the Constitution. This is what was decided, and all that was intended to be decided, in the Scranton School district case. "In the present case, the question for de cision is upon the effect of the fifty-seventh section of the act of May 23, 1874, P. L., P. 230. The material portion of that section is in these words: Any city of the third class, or any city of less population than 10,000 inhabitants heretofore incorporated may become subject to the pro visions of this act governing cities of the third class to be hereinafter incoroorated; and the Major and Councils of snch city may effect the , same by an ordinance thereof duly passed by a majority of the members elected to each branch thereof voting in favor of the same. NO CHANGES MADE. "This is an enabling, and in no sense a dis abling enactment. The act in its previous sections had provided for the establishment of a class of cities to be called cities of the third class and to be thereafter incorporated. This portion of the act had universal appli cation over all parts of the State . and is clearly a general law. Into this class it was made competent for any city having the requisite population, and also for any city having less thai) 100,000 inhabitants, out all of which had been previously incorporated, to come, so as to be governed by those pro visions of the act of 1874 which relate to the government of cities of the third class, by pursuing the directions of Use a Jmk Without . 1 Lm Tablespoonful of Pearline to Pail of Water Ana you have the best and quickest means of washing and 'cleaning.

When the requirements of the 57th section are complied with in any given case, by a pre-existing city, such city enters into the third class of cities whose future incorporation has been provided for and becomes a constituent part thereof. Those that do not embrace'lhe opportunity remain as they were before. There is no possibility of any exercise of the powers or privilege conferred by the 57th section which can work affirmatively a local or special result. Whatever is done by virtue of this section converts that which was. or might be, local or special, into that which is general." "It is satisfactory to know that while the case is still within our reach we are able to correct our own error. It follows that the judgment of the court below must be re versed."

On Washington's Birthday we noticed quite a number of men in the parade minus Overcoats. It was a balmy spring day,- full of warmth and sunshine. The next day there was universal shivering. ' Another cold spell set in, and now, every man who owns an Over coat, instead of hanging it in his wardrobe and deluding himself with the idea that the winter is over, is only too glad to wear it. ' These cold spells, which may' be looked for every now and then during the latter part of February and the stormy, month of March, will afford us our last chance to get rid of the balance of our Over coats. Sharp blasts from the North or West and sharp reductions in our prices form a combination against which no man without an Overcoat dare rebel. We suit our action to our word!
