They liojie Uiat the Republicans, confi
dent in their large majority, may not or
ganize for victory, hut expei it to come
without work. The Republicans are not
fools, however. They know that the way
to win is to work to win, and they mean j
to, and are doing it.
It is atlirmed as positively true that, !
the B. A O. Telegraph lines have lieen j
sold to the " Western Union Company " j
which gives that corporation a virtual
monoMily of the ttdegmph busines of the ;
entire country. capital stock will '
now amount to about one hundred mil-'
lions of dollar, and as dividends have to ;
be earned on this sum, an advance of .
prices may be looked for.
Wit are glad to note that even-where j
Mr. Cleveland stops on his jaunt, he is :
accorded courteous and respectful treat
ment. As the President of this great
country, and the chief representative of a ;
pivernment founded upon the d.a'trine ;
of the emal rights if all men. every citi- "
7en should accord to him the respect due :
his position, ami this w ithout ex(vtion j
has lieen tmaniiiiousty conceded him.
Vht will it pnilit a genuine Prohi- i
bitionist if the Saloon-1 V-niocmtic combi
nation wins Pennsylvania this lull?
The program is to repeal high license
and prevent a submission of the amend
ment, lor the combination which can do
the one can as readily do the other. Will
any honest temcrance man in the State
promote this, program ? If he should pro
mote it by casting his inllnence against
the Republican party, and the advawvs
already made are lost, no sii.irv man will
envy his after-! bought.
Tiesiiav of last week was lirand Army
day iu Pittsburgh. There was aWr 7,.VH)
veteruns in line and the sidewalks of
Fifth and Sixth Atcliucs were tlirongi-d
w it ii people even to sud'.u'jtiou. The pa
rade was a grand success, ami profuse
lexiratious of public buildings, hotels,
busiue houses and private dwelling-wen-
everywhere to be seen, lu the
evening ciup-iires were held bX the Col
leNeuiu buil liiv, Allegheny city ; Fifth
Avenue Market Hull. Pittsburgh, and
Salisbury Hal'., South Side. It was a
grand day It the city.
Mr. Mi Phkksos's letter, published
elsewhere in tnis iuc, pmutunn the
pretext of Mr. Cleveland's services td
the veterans of the I'uiou army. The
fruu ell nays : "The thing to be in-siderv-d
is not that Cleveland bus ap
proved Wis pension bills in two years,
while (irant only approved 4S." in eight
years, Hayes in four years, ami Ar
thur 7:tH in a little more than three years.
These figure prove nothing as to the
lreident disjsisition, for he is not the
author of bills ; he is the approver or
vetoerof them. Arthur did not veto one
pension bill, nor did Hayes, (irant
vetoed eight, giving for reason in three
wes that the ersons pensioned were
proven to have In-en deserters ; Cleveland
Las vetoed 124 about 10 per i-ent of all
the pension bills presetcd to him.
"More pension bills have been passed
lurimc the last two y,ears than during
any other two, hecansr w ith inen-asing
years there comes increxsing weakness
ud increasing need of aid to the old
tvildier or his widow. It is the generous
temper of the country that is manifest
in the numls-r of pension bills pnwnted
ty Congress to the President ; it is ex
ecutive indiffen-nee to the welfare of the
oldier that ia manifested by Presidential
vetoes."
lx all the history of the Democratic
jiarty there is but one occasion when
that party made an explicit, undermau l
abln, oncondiliumt! d-la ration in favor
of the iricapJe advocated by a majority
of the leailers, if not believed in by a ma
jority of their followers. Tina was in
1SN), when Un-y put poor Haacock oo a
platform in favor of "a tariff for revenue
ouly." The overghelining deleai that be
fell the victim of Out it political folly re
strained tlie party whvu U nul and nom
inate! Cleveland in lKN4,and the "tariff
phuik" adopted at Uiat convention was
so ingeniously const meted that no one
has yet attempted to tell what it means.
n this platform Cleveland mas elected, j
but when he came to apply his tana
piincipl.-s Ui legislation hewasnot as suc
cessful in concealing their real character
as the conventien had been, and he di
vided his party in the house, resulting in
the defeat of all financial or revenue leg
islation during the first two years of bit
administration. Since that division in
the House he has sought a middle ground,
but what little of his intention he ha
allowed Ui aplr are so well salted with
free trade that the prospect of agreement
are not of that rosy characters to in
spire much confid-nce in their final suc
cess. The comine House is not much
more likely to agree than the last, and
Mr. Cleveland will in all prolability have
a long session without harmonizing on
the tariff.
It w ill be remembered that in April
last, the Associate Judges of Huntingdon
county overruled the President Judgeand
refused to grant licenses to several hotel
keepers in that county. An appeal was
taken to the supreme Court, and thai i
tribunal on Monday of lust week, at the j
opening of the term in Pittsburgh, hand- j
ed down an opinion sustaining the jjwer
of the As-iate Judges to refuse granting
licenses, notwithstanding the President
Judge may be of a contrary opinion.
There is nothing new in this as a matter
of law. The ipicstion that was supposed
to 1 raised, as to the right of the Court
to arbitrarily refuse licenses where all le
gal requisites have lsen complied w ith
on the part of the petitioners was not
touched by the Court alwve. Here is the
opinion of the court as we find it in the
Huntingdon JtmrmU :
" The records in the cases liefore us are
without fault, and as the facts cannot be
brought belore us on appeal, we must af
firm the certioraris and dismiss the ap
peals. We may observe, however, that if
we are to regard the second opinion of the
associates as containing a statement of
the fails of the several cases, their (lower
to refuse the liivuses was undoubted and
it was properly exercised. It is true their
first opinion, lis drawn for them by the
President Judge, puts them in the aw k
ward p-wit ion of a clear violation of the
prescriptions of the ail of assembly, but
this on consideration they had a right to
correct and set forth the 'facts on which
they Acted. The judgments on the eer
tioraris are atliriued. and the apeals
dismissed at the cost of the apiellants.'"

siois were made during the run of the pn-s-dent

those were at the water stations. The presi

platform, was greeted every where by farmers
and villagers. The train arriveil ten minutes

It was 1:25 when the cmwd begun to dis

time. Fnally be got away, almost faint
with hunger and exertion and was driven to
the Palmer house to cat dinner and pn-pare
for the reception.
With one bursting, frantic cheer crashing
through the great rotunda, fully one hundred
thousand people rushed at President Cleve
land and his wife at the public reception at
the Palmer house this afteriKKin. In vaiu
did the iKiliccmen. clubs in hand, utteuiit to :

kept up without intermission until the time

Cleveland In Milwaukee.
Milwvi kke, tMoberH. At 1:. r. m. the
booming of cannon announced the arrival
of the pn-sidential train at the Northwestern
ife.t, where a multitude had assembled.
The seems along thtr way from Chicago were
of ihe usual character. At Evanstoii then
was a brass band serenade and a triumphal
arch of evergreens. At Racine, Hags could
1 seen flying over liie lowu a mile away.
At smaller stations all the country eop)e
round alsiut were iu waiting and even the
ploughmen in the fields had their horses lie
dis ked with Hags and ribbon.
When the irocemon, which bud txvn
formed and at the head of which the distin
guished guests and the nsseptioti committee
ill carriages, had traversed its circuitous
route, and arriveil st the west front of the
court house the honored guests and tlie eom-

restore.! and the presiilent was able lo de

From the conn bouse reviewing stand tiie
procession reSMmed its march to SchulU
park , where the hand shaking feature of the
program was arranged to be carried out.
Beni tid the pn-shtVritial carriage all way tip
to the wrk trudged a grizzled old Irishman,
holding aloft a banner inscribed with the
words: " President and Constitution.' He
had walked to Milwaukee all the way from
Neenah, Wis, with his flag lor this purjrose.
He gave his name a John Sexton.
Tlie presidents reception lasted an hour.
He was so tired of handshaking aa be him
self observed that most of the time he kept
his hands behind him and simply bowed as
tlie people passed. This afternoon Mrs.
Cleveland dined at the residence of John L.
Miu-lieU, resident manager of the Soldiers'
Home. This evening she listened to the
toasts at the merchants' banquet from the
balcony of the dinning hall.
Three hundnsj and fifty guests sat down
at the banquet tenilered by the Merchants'
association to presiilenl Cleveland, including
leading republimns, democrats and mug
wumps from all frts of the stale. The
presHlciit was meived wilh great applause,
and wlien be rose to resssad to the welcom

greeted with vociferous eheering. Mr.
Cleveland' appearanoe on the balcony of
the dining Hall was the occasion of cheer

Midisox, Wis., Oct. 7. There was heavy
rain last night, which rather damaged the
forest of flags which waved over the city in
the president's honor. The morning was
damp and cloudy, but people swarmed in
from the surrounding country till the city
could hardly hold the invaders. The sun
came out in lime to welcome the president
and dry the streets for his dainty wife.
When the cannon announced the approach
of the train lo.noo people shouled and when
at 1 r. M. the President and his wife steped
from the train, another shout went up. The
first thing to catch the president's eye was
an arch on which tlie Goddess of Liberty
sloixl surrounded by 3d pretty girls, npre
senting 3 beautiful States. A procession of
military and civic societies accompanied the
visitors to the east front of the 'apitol where
a platform bad leen erected oil the portico
for the ceremonial welcome. There is a
park in front of the building, but nothing
could be seen'in it for people.
Chief Justice Krasmus Cole, of the State
Supreme Court, delivered an address of wel
come iu which he expressed a wish thai the
president could travel all through the Slate
and st-all its industries and Isautics He
fold bow Wisconsin bad sent its quota of

At the conclusion of Mr. Cleveland's
s;eech, tin; Fniversily battalion, iuo strong,
surprised tiie audience with a roller yd!,
In response to calls, Mrs. Cleveland ar ise
ii iui the chair she hail Ix-cii occupying at
the right of the president's seat and smiled
sweetly oil the enthusiastic multitude, which
s p ivvrd its appreciation bv a v-rcifcrous hur
rah. Then the parte hastened to the capitul.
where thousands were waiting to grasp the
president's hand. The majority were dis-
apioinled, as the Fjtecutive hand was so
badly swollen from the unusual exercise to
which it has been subjected this week that
Mr. Cleveland felt compelled to hold it close
to his breast and shake his head at the pass
ing throng.

Fourteenth Judicial district to Judge Xa

only Republican candidate in the field, and
Buchanan men claim they can now npcal
to the voters of tireetie county to stand sol
idly to him as her only candidate, whereas.
Fayette has two i-andidates. with a huge
number of lemocrafic leaders committed to
Buchanan as against Boyle. This latest
move has a dampening effect on tlie Boyle
men and they have little hows that the con
ferees at their meeting next Tuesday will
agree. They are now charging that Buchan
an has broken faith with them and declar
ing that he never shall be Judge.

TELEGRAPH MONOPOLY.
Transfer of the Baltimore A Ohio
Franchiser $5,000,000, Is
The Price.
Xew York, Oct, 5. Jay Gould and Kor
vin Cireen said this evening the Western
I'nion had bought the Baltimore and Ohio
Telegraph for .".OC0.c in Wesferu I'nion
stock. They had elected the present Balti
more and Ohio ofliocrs to continue in their
place for the presents.
The bargain will fiually be agreed upon at a
meeting of the Western Union Executive
Committee to-morrow monungjit which (ieo.
J. Cniuld, Dr. Xorvin (Jroen, Joliu Terry,
Samuel Sloan and Gen. Eekert will be pres
ent. It had already been signed and at this
meeting the ulioliofthe dim tors will be ob
tained to close il. Ail information as. to the
term will be withheld.
Xtw York, October ti. It is officially an
nounced that the sale of the Baltimore and
Ohio Telegraph to the Western t'nion Com
pany has been completed. The contract was
signed this morning. The wires of the for
mer company are already virtually under
Western I'nion control. The contract sigu
ed includes not only the Baltimore and Ohio
Telegraph Company's lines, but the wires
ami the exclusive right ol way of the railroad
company. This will give the Western I'nion
as well the right to the wires on the West
Shore Road. All the avenues to New York
by the trunk lines are now owned by the
Western I'nion, the only other wires enter
ing the city being brought in by highway.
When Dr. Norvin (ireen was found and
questioned to-day he said :
"We have bought the Baltimore & Ohio
Telegraph. We own all its lines and proper
ties. We have jiaid for it ; it is ours. The
terms sre our business. I don't propose lo
tell whether we paid for it iu cash or stock.
I say that's our business ; but we've got it.
and the new ownership takes etfitl to-day.
Mr. Jay Gould, however, stated poiutedly
that the price $5,iKW,i was to be paid iu
Western I'nion stis:k, sullicieiit of which
would lie issued to take up the indebtedness
and capital stock of the Baltimore and Ohio
Conqiany .
Baltimore, October 0. Thedispateh from
New York announcing the completion of
the deal of the Westeni I'nion for the Balti
more and Ohio Telegraph created no surprise
here. It is iinderstissl that the terms are
$.-( m, k sj of stock of the Western I'nion und
a cash payment annually by the Western
1'iiion of .MSU. It is thought the Balti
more and Ohio Telegraph will be conducted
without change for ihe present. The Balti
more and Ohio Directors will meet on
Wednesday next, when the mutter will be
acted Ukii.
New York, October 7. The Executive
Committee of the Western 1'iiion Telegraph
Company met to day and ratified and con
firmed the contract for the purchase of the
Baltimore and Ohio Telegraph. Ilussel Sage
explains that the Western I'liiou is to pay
the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad Coni(any
$l'i,isiO a year for "si years for a lease of the
telegraph property which the latter owns in
depeudcut of the Baltimore and Ohio Tele
graph Couiiany, the railrood company re
taining the right to use the wires for railroad
business and paying salariis and operating
exiensis.
President Norvin Green says that rates will
not lie advaneisl exis-pt at some few compet
itive mints, but a fear of such an advance,
nevertheless, prevails. The plan of Govern
ment purchase of the telegraphs has been re
vived and a resolution advocating it will
probably lie introduced ut the next meeting
of the Hoard of Trade.
Kols.-rt Garrett arrived to-day on the Ems,
looking healthy but declined to talk of the
deal.

Ovation to Boss Shepherd.
Washinuton, I). I.'., October 0. The dem
onstration lo-nieht iu honor of ex-lnv. Alex
R. Shepherd, or " lioss " Shepherd, as he has
been called, was a unipue and remaikablc
affair. It is the first time in the history of
the District, jierhaps of the eoimlry, where
t he freedom of a city has lieen tendered to a
private citisen. This was formally extended
to Gov. Shepherd thi afternoon by an offi
cial letter from the District Commissioners.
The paraiieto-uicht was in some respects im
posing and brilliant, and iu others amusing
ami unique. The tiovernor sIinnI on a re
viewing stand erected at the junction of Penn
sylvania avenue and fiftieth street, just at the
south end of the Treasury lK-artment, and
with uncovered head reviewed the entire
procession. The first portion was brilliant,
consisting of wheelmen to the number of
alsiut ,Vni arranged in p'.atis.ns lirst bicy
cles, then tricycles, each carryiiuc colored
lanterns. Xextcame the District militia, but
at night the military is at a discount,
although they were out in good force. There
were uuiuerousbaiidsand some played "Hail
to the t'hief ' as they passed the reviewing
stand, while others tooted "Home, Sweet
Home." The fire deart ment with their ma
chines gaily decorated made a very credita
ble display, hut the "dtuens' division'' was,
in the language of Stuart Robson. "a cork
er. There were white men and black men,
big and little, each carrying a torch, which
they brandished in every conceivable manner
and as they passed the reviewing stand they
gave vent to their enthusiasm iu the most un
earthly howls, that split the ears of the spec
tators and must have been heard by the dead
at Arlington. These were the men who had
worked as laborers on the improvements
which the tiovernor undertisik during his
administration, and those who are at present
employed Usin the public works here. It
was perhaW all well enough from a senti
mental point of view to put them in line,
but they were certainly a very unruly and
noisy mob. However, they served to lengt li
en the line, which occupied over an hour in
passing the reviewing Maud. Ttss pyrotech
nic portion of the display was very abundant
and brilliant. The tiovernor expressed him
self as highly gratified, though if be had
been consulted lie would probably have se
lected a different class of citizens to carry the
torches. To-morrow night Gov. and Mrs.
Shepherd will hold a public reception at
Wiliard's Hotel.

of long standing. It was emised by the

pnqs'rty.
The niunlerer was locked up. He subse
quently made a conti-ssiou, saying that he
had deliberately killed Mrs. Sihautlert and
had intended to kill her husband. The
tiiuriL-rer while under arrest swallowed a
d m of poison, but not sulHciciil to cause
death, as he recovered from its etfW-ts.
