A Presidential Pension Fund.

FOR TUB COMFORT OF EX-l'KHSI
DENT.
Now York TImog.
A number of gentlemen of both
political parties propose to appeal
turougli the Times lor a national sub
seription to provide n perpetual fun
wuKie luiuu'H amount snail ue en
joyed during life mid non-holding of
Federal o'flee by the oldest ex-Presi
dent of the United Stilton The inin
inium capital of tue fund shall be
--',t!M, mill Its probable income not
less than yii.'i'Ji). Tiio details as to
tho lu inaeiuent of such a trust uro
matter for after consideration ; tho
immediate questions are, can the
money bo raised and will such a move
menc commend it-elt to the support
ana approval ot the people of the
United States? While not presuming
to give au authentic reply to either
question, Inquiries made on behulf of
tho Tim" would lead us to answer
both very confidently in the affirm
live. Already subscriptions to the
amount of $ot),009 have been guaraii
teed in a a neighboring city, and there
Is no reason, beyond the desirability
or making tho movement a popular
one, why the whole amount should
not bo subscribed by twenty-rive
wealthy citizens of the United .States
But it is very obvious desirable that a
movement like this should bo nurtici
pated iu by the whole people, that the
quarter-dollar of the laborer should go
to make the fund as as well a.s the $10,
000 of the millionaire. Wo fully ex
pect to see the aggregate subscription
reach, fciuo.ooo, and we trust that the
number of those giving small sums
will be no less remarkable than the
munificence of those who are able to
give large ones.
it may be necessary to explain that
the phrase, the ''oldest living ex-Pres-
Identof the United .states" means the
ex-President whose incumbency is
most distant in ioint of time, and
that the plan we have outlined does
not, for the present at least, contem
plate the enjoyment of a pension by
more than one ex-Presideut at a time.
The fact that General Grant would in
all probability, be the first beneficiary
of the contemplated trust, does not in
the least, make it a movement in his
special interest. In fact, due of the
reasons which have weighed with
these who desire to see the movement
assume a distinctly national character
is to be found in the oil-repeated pro
posals to raise a fuud which should
be a purely personal testimonial to
General Grant. Without having any
authority to discourage these proposals
we imagine that the benefits of such a
national scheme as we have outlined
could be accepted by General Grant
or any succeeding recipient, without
cither tho feeling of personal obliga
tion or impaired self respect which
might attach to a merely personal
gift. . Our columns arc open for such
discussion of the scheme as may be
prntli.ible, und for tho record of all
subscriptions to it received at the
ThMi otlice or elsewhere.

Tho i'!V-tiuation into the Chinese
Jetf. r t.rt;e.y U getting rapidly down
to b:r.i p.-i'i. 'I he witnesses culled to
prove the genuineness of the letter
have cut a sorry figure from the out
set. The public, therefore, were little
6uprised when two of them broke
down entirely and voluntarily con
fessed that they had been suborned
and had knowingly perjured them
selves in their testimony.
Morey swears that for his part in
the affair he received 150 from the
Democratic National Committee. The
vigor and success with which the ex
posure of this forgery business has
been pushed by the Republicans has
been one of the refreshing features of
this campaign. We very much mis
take the character and mettle of the
prosecution if they will bo content
witti bringing down such small game
as Morey and Linsay. If any mem
ber of the Democratic National Com
mittee has been guilty of subornation
of perjury, or in any way incrimin
ated by this clumsy forgery, the work
of those engaged in this prosecution
will not be finished until the prison
doors shall close upon the offender's
bead.
This was no common forgery. It
was attempted, by means of it, to de
ceive and defraud the whole American
people and check the rising tide of
Republican success. Such tricks
should be shown to be too dangerous
to be repeated. Tho American people
overlook much. Especially are they
lenient with respect to what is said
and done in the excitement of a na
tional campaign. But the fraud con
spiracy, forgery and perjury, such as
are embodied in the Morey letter, and
the effort made to sustain it. are too
much. Tho public demand that all
who are in any way responsible for
this disgraceful affair, be they high
or low, rich or poor, bo prosecuted
with the utmost rigor, and, if found
guilty, bo made to oxptate their of
fense in a felon's cell.

Burning Coal Oil.
FOUR LIVES LOST THIIOi;oit RKCK-
LKSSXIOSS IN A nOAKlUXO-HOUSK.
Bradford, November 11. One of
the most sickening horrors of tiny
that has occurred in this vicinity took
place near Bordell, ten miles south of
Bradford, last night. In a narrow
raviue J. C. Brown and son, formerly
of Lock Haven, have a saw-mill lo
cated. They employ eighteen men in
and around the mill. As sleeping
apartments the men occupied a two
story frame building, twelve by six
teen. In the centre of the small first
floor room was a stove in which the
men had been in the habit of quicken
ing the fire with crude oil after gather
ing it at night. Shortly before 10 last
night there were eight men upstairs
and four below. Hcnrv Rankev
seized a small can of oil and began
pouring the fluid into the stove. The
flames flashed to the can, burning
Kankcy's hand, and ho hurled the can
from him into a corner of the room.
A lare pail full of crude oil was
standing there, and the burning fluid
plashed in all directions. In an in
fant the entire front part of the lower
room was a sheet of lire, cutting off
communication with the door. The
men below hastily warned those aloft
of their peril and run through the nre
rom the building. The upper room
had but one small rear window and
through this was their onlv means of
scape. So rapidly did the fire encir
le all parts of the buildinur that
it five of the men above succeeded in
making egress. The other three were
roasted alive. Their names were
Elliott Brown, J. Hyde and Barnabas
Haley. When the fire had spent its
fury the charred trunk of the first
named was found laying across the
stove. Hyde and Haley lay side by
side iu the corner. " The arms and
limbs to the thighs of all tho men were
gone, i be bodies were black and un
recognizable. Brown was a native of
tspcr, N. Y.. Hyde of Keio, N. Y.
Haley's name was assumed, and his
real name and Prime are unknown.
All of the five who escaped through
the window were terribly burned
about the face, neck, arms and body.
The last one in getting out, James
Bardy, fell upon a sharp .xtump, cut
ting a hole in iiis back four inches in
length. His face, arms and neck
were perfectly raw. Ho lingered in
agony indescribably until 11 o'clock
to-day, when death came to his re
lief. His home was in McKeau
county. Tho others injured are as
follows: Willard Frisbie, burned on
the hands, face and hips; will prob
ably recover. His home is in Albion,
Illinois. Henry Monroe, burned on
the back and breast very severely;
will not survive. He is a native of
Jasper, N. Y Frank Welsh, face
shockiugly and neck and arms pain
fully burned; recovery doubtful. His
home is in Dallas, Pa. Charles Smith
arms, neck and back seriously; hopes
of recovery. He is a resident of Bor
deli. Joseph Heeps, hands and face
painfully burnt; not critical. His
homo is in Clinton county, Pa. As
stHjii alter the casualty as possible phy
sicians from neighboring towns were
summoned ami jxerted their skill to
the utmost for the relief of tho
wounded. Coroner Dean held an in
quest to-day and the jury found a
verdict of accidental death by the
careless handling of oil. When the
Are was discovered by persons of the
vicinity, they hastened to the scene,
but were powerless to check the
flames. No cries were heard from the
men who perished In the destroyed
building.

Captain Kails' Ship Hallway.
The Sci'inllfla Aotcricnn of la-t
week contains two full page iHn'tra
tions of Captain Ends' proposed rail
way for transporting ships with their
can?" across coat inents.
Captain Eads claims by his plan to
take loaded ships of the largest tonnage
from one ocean to tho other across the
Isthmus of Panama, as readily as can
be done by a canal after the Lessup
plan, and at a much less cost for engi
neering construction.
The project is certainly bold and in
genious, and the projector anticipates
no serious difficulties in carrying for
ward his enterprise. The engravings
referred to in the Scientific American
show the proposed construction of not
only the railroad, but tho appliances
for transferring the ships from tho
water to the rail.
In addition to the large number of
engravings, illustrative of engineering
works, inventions and new discoveries
which appear weekly, the Sciimtifa
Am'.ri'icin has, during the last year,
tie voted considerable space to illustrat
ing and describing leading establish
ments devoted to different manu
facturing indict ries.
This feature has added very much to
the attractiveness and usefulness of
tiie paper. More than fifty of the
most important industrial establish
ments of our country have been illus
trated, and the processes of the differ
ent manufactures described in its
columns. The &':icntijio American
has been published for more than
thirty-four years by Muss & Co., 3"
Park How, New York, and has at
tained a larger weekly circulation than
all similar papers published in the
country. The publishers assure the
public that they have not printed less
than 50,000 copies a week for seve ral
months.
A Rebuke to Garflehl's 3!aligners.
From the Philadelphia Enquirer.
It is fit that the brave soldier, the
wise, experienced, honorable states
man, James A. tiariield, whom his
partisan opponents so shamefully de
famed and reviled without reason or
excuse, should proudly accept yester
day's victory as a vindication, full
and coiiiplete.of all the cruel, cowardly
and malicious charges made uguinst
him; as a rebuke to his malie.ucrs, and
as a vote of confidence in his integ
rity, and as a mark of the respect and
admiration which his countrymen
have for him as a citizen, soldier and
statesman. Yesterday he was the
candidate of a party to-day he is the
President-elect, of a whole country.
He has been many years in making
the honorable, useful record upon
which he stands. It is altogether that
of a patriot who loves his country
better than self or party. It is un
finished as yet, with great opportuni
ties before him in his high office to
add to it That he will add to it there
can be no doubt entertained. That
his administration will add lustre to
his fame and enhance the country's
prosperity in "solid souih" as well as
loyal, United North, there can be no
doubt. Among other things for
which, on our national day of thanks
giving, the people should give thanks
is for the election of a President who
will know no North or no South, but
who will, in the broadest spirit of un
selfish patriotism, be the Chief Mag
istrate of au entire nation.
In Montgomery county the official
votes gives (Jul field one majority over
Hancock, in a total vote of 22,061. The
county treasurer was also elected by a
majority of one vote. This case illus
trates more fully than anything we
can say the importance of a single
vote. We have heard men say, "surely
one vote will make no difference.''

There have been 6,021,402 arrivais
of immigrants In this country since
1804, and yet John Kelly wonders be
cause his candidate for Mayor of New
York only has 2,000 majority.
A very old man voted three times
at Washington, Ind., in the recent
state election. On his trial it. was
convincingly shown that, though .so
ber, lie had been so carried away by
excitement as to forget that he had al
ready voted.

in 1818, Fremont planted the Ameri

famous campaign cry, Is Canyon City,

During the month more thiin
$3,000,000 of standard silver dollars
were shipped from the different branch

delphia. The famous Sergeant Childers,
"the best drilled man in the world,"
who was accidentally shot while hunt
ing at Koshkonong, Wisconsin, a few
days ago, died Tuesday, and was
buried with military honors. Ser

Kelly's Alarm.
New York ricrnld.
John Kelly defeated the Democratic
candidate for the Presidency by giv
ing New York State to (larflcld. He
docs lrbt care for this so far ns relates
to the moral aspects of the treason, but
ho Is uneasy over the possible conse
quences to him personally, which ho
now dimly foresees. Hence his howl
over the colonization of voters. Any
explanation of the defeat which as
signs another cause than Kelly's trea
son is likely to be useful to him just
now. But the people will not be de
ceived. There Is no illegal vote in
this city. But. there is an electoral
fraud in this sense, that the poor crea
ture who train in the wake of John
Kelly were made to vote for Garfield,
some because they wore deceived,
others because they were bullied, and
this will bo so every time that Kelly
has the chance to make it so. What
is the country or the Presidency to
him? Nothing. What Is the posses
sion of the city Government? Every
thing. NEW AD VERTISEMEXm
