X. H. Mekvine, IC., the popular

of Alliums, wan last e k elected City
Solicitor, to succeed A. X. Pively, Demo
crat, w ho had become extremely obnox
ioua to the tax payers of the city.
The ran-Amcrican statesmen who dis-
-uitt-d so interestimjly for months in
Washington the beauties an 1 practical
worth of arbitration, should now stop
shooting auJ practice their theories.
They have no millions to squander on
burned powder.
Tub Democratic party ia Miiippi
and Georgia and Arkansas should paw
resolutions denouncing the use of the
Winchester rifle in political campaigns.
They can easily control things with the
hhotjfun, especially when the modern
breech-loader is 60 cheap.
Xice political campaign that of South
Carolina, w here one of the lemocratic
candidates for Governor goes from meet
ing to uieeting w ith an escort armed
with Winchester rifles and levolvere. It
is an illustration of the kind of men who
are howling over the dangers of the
Lodn election bill.
Siftku down to its simple meaninc,
the great bugaboo "force bill" which ia
so worryintr Democratic statesmen, ia
simply a demand that the Constitution
and bins of the UniteJ SLuU should
not retrain dead letl"rs, but every man
should be allowed to cast bis ballot and
have bis ballot counted. What ia there
wrong in that ?
A (rreat many Americans are asking
w hy all Europe is so down on the Mc
Kinley bill arid the Ilt-publican arty.
ltemorratic aud freu trade organs tight
shy of attempting to answer. P.nt they
know it is a fact. The head and front of i
opjiosition to protection is l.K-ated at I.iv-
eriwol, London, Paris nd Irlin. The
Jiemocratic party is only Eurojie's Anier
ican agent.
A writer sjwculuting on the fiosbibility
and the results of an attempt on the
part of Great Britain to subdue the
l.'nitrd states to compliance with her
wishes estimates that the job would cost
her cot U-m than f7.'y;iOOO. He ar
rives at this conclusion by figuring on
the basts of what the Revolution War
cost the mother country per capita of the
population of the colonics. As the debt
if the empire is now nearly Jii,000VX),
KKi, that country would be ripe for a
receiver by the lime it got through with
a new war of subjection ith this coun
try. Ir is herd to pleaw Dt-morratic organs.
Twenty-five years ago "the immense pub
lic debt would never be paid." Later
they groaned because it -was being "paid
too rapidly." Lust year they united in
prolonged groan about "the evils of a
(treat surplus in the Treasury." Xow
they are combining in the whine over
1be certain deficit." In the meantime
the party m hich saved the Xation and
inaugurated all it prosperity is still at the
helm and the country will fi-el safe.
Tus tnesMige of President Harrison to
Congress urging legislation that will per
mit the Post Oflioe IVpartoient to shut
off lotteries from the Uoe of the mails is
Khort, effective, pertinent and convincing.
The mails, he declares, are intended to
serve the purposes of legitimate trade
nd decent social intercourse, and should
u4 be prostituted to promote the wide
prad corruption of private and pnblic
morals incident to lottery schemes. The
President's position is blrong and uuas
Aailable. Now, let Congress come right
up to this great woik, take the gigantic
monster by th throat, and forever cut
off the means through which it is taking
laily bread from the hou.n of thousands
t)f the laboring poor.
Peiui.T HAkKtsciNc attitude toaard
totteriefi i rominended by the press of
the country with grwater uuatiimity than
anything eWhe has doi.e. The re"ent
fi ght of the Ioumiaua lottery for lifu in
it oao tute has roust d the country to
the evii if thct gambling estaliih
tuents. Their jernicious influence runs
through every community that is reached
by the mails. The existence of the prin
cipal agency of the Louifiana Lottery in
the District of tViluiiibia may well wig
gest to the President to inquire whether
he has not the power in his ow n bands
to drive out such an illcgi! establish
ment. If the guardians of the peace neg
lect to do their duty, shy not remove
them and appoint others who will do
tbirduty? The country will standby'
the President in so t3orf to clear oat the
Washington loKtry cssS'.isLuieiit. j
Tsie reports from all parts of the State
indicate a very healthy condition of the
Ipul'ltcan organization, anl there is no
good reason why Mr, Delamater and his
associates sic lild not receive a full aver
age part? majority. This is the prelimi
nary campan to the general engage
ment all along the line in 1802, and it
behooves Republicans to ke;p their best
foot forward at this time.
Sa the Harrisburg TeUgmyU: "The
Demccracy are making great to-do over
the fact that "Uloiious Old Tom Mar
shal," of Pittsburg, yesterday told ex
Governor Patt'ison he intended to vole
for him. Well, what of 1t ? Has "Glo
rious Old Tom" voted any other than the
Democratic ticket in the last eight years?
Can a man who has thus voted be called
a Republican? If so, bow Ion a term
most be serve on probation in the Demo
cratic party before he can be called one
of 'em ? "Garrulous Old Tom" must be
meant. All of Mr. Marshall's "glory"
departed from him when he sold his
party out in 18S2. Having then landed
in the Democratic camp, he stuck in the
mire so deep that he ia a permanent fixture.
Weighed and Found Wanting.
The XorrUtow-n Herald thus refers to Mr.
Paulson's unpatriotic and selfish course
while governor:
The Pattison who is running (or governor
of Pennsylvania tbii year is a very different
uati from tbe person wno was eiecieu 10
mat portion iu IsSi, tbrougb Republican
distension.
At thai time voters w bo bad resolved lo
bow Ibeir independence by aiding to elect
bin), took b-in upon trust. He bad seived
a term or twoas controller of Philadelphia,
a position wtiose duties were entirely lutms
lerisl. sinl where sny man who meant to be
right could ice!y go wrong.
Xr 1'uUison bas a record now, however,
and no voirr need cat bis ballot blindly ibis
year, or tate anything for granted. It is
uti excellent maxim in politics as in the
reaimi oi usnire geuemiiy tbat "by their
fruiwye ba;l know tbeiu."
In looking up 1'attiaou's record, no ac
count Jieed I taken of his reck leosiieos in
calling an extra session of the Legislature
which was entirely unnecessary, and which
cost tbe tax payers of leiinylvauia more
than a half million dollars. But let that
His vetoes are enough to condemn
hint, so far as intelligent voters are con
cerned. Jn his portion of governor he mule war
on the veterans of tbe Commonwealth, lie
vetoed, to liegin with the 'Soldiers' Tomb
stone bill." an act granting a pittance to al
low a memorial to be erected on which
mitht be ir.M-ribed the nsnie and ajre of one
who risked all for his country, and thus res
cue Ins memory forji short tune from the
gulf of oblivion. He vetoed this bill, which
has since bcome a law. and, in addition,
every pension bill or other nuasure intended
to do jii-tici to tbe snidieis.
But Mr. Patli9on did not stop here. He
pn venled by his veto the enactment of tbe
law providing for a hospital at Johnstown,
and one for miner injured in the bitumin
ous cal regions. Tbe claims of suffering
humanity were weighed in the balance with
the paltry sum that would have been re
quired lo establish there needed charities,
nil tbe money weiehed the most.
He vetoed the bill for the prosecution and
punifhmei!t of defaulters aud embezzlers
.iwntiected with banks and other corpora
tions, and thereby incurred the indignation
ot those wbo lose by such transactions. On
the other hand, be objected to the founda
tion f co-operative associations by farmers,
merchants and laborers.
There is not one ot his numerous vetoes
that can be considered a benefit lo tbe ajjri
culturi'. the mechanics or tbe labor of tbe
State. Wbo ever heard ot him as the Gov
ernor of the people? Hn views of legisla
tion were extremely distasteful to tbe major
ity of voters, as wan own by the beavr
Republican msjorities rolled up in '84, '85
and u while he wss Governor.
It would be the ereatest blunder ever com
muted by the voters of Pennsylvania to give
Mr. I'ti'isun au opportunity to repeat the
former experience. Of this, however, there
is really very little danger.
Mississippi a Whit Man's State
New York Prcw.
A constitutional convention in Mississippi
will meet on Augttet 11 The delegates to
it were ekcted on Wednesday by a total
poll of sliout 4,000 votes. Reports agree
that the ui t:roes took no part in the elec
tion. This being so, the convention will be
a w hite man's convention, and, of course.
lHniocratic. The census of that State of
pve 4T'J.3'J; whites and G10,2l colored
a msjority of 180, "CO colored people. In tl
convention that is to frame a new constitn
lion for l ie government of Uie minority and
nmioritv alike the majority are to have
nothing to say.
Not only this. It is boldly declared by
the whites that this convention is called
mainly to provide a State constitutional bar
agsiust negro voting, or, as it is put in mild
er language, to twure continued supiemacy
for the wliihs in the S'ato. Three or lour
methods of tutting off the colored vot are
under consideration by the promoters of
this white man's convention. Educational
and proierty tjuali Scat ion.', a pull tax re
quircmer.l and a redist riding of tlie State fo
as to secure in all State and Xational elec
tions the succeKsof white candidates, have
all lcen proposed,
flie step Missiiipi is taking hai the vir
tue of frankness. -The whites now control
the Htate notwithstanding they are largely
in the minority. The State officers, the Ile
reaentatives iu Congress, and tbe Presiden
tial Electors arc Democratic, because tbe Re
publicans are not allowed to vote, or if vot
ing their votes are not counted. AU this is
against law and repugnant to tbe principles
of a republican form of Government. In
now set king to conform the law to the prac
tice of tbe State, the dominant party shows
signs of iwsseswing a public conscience. But
when three minority con-ttitiition makers
have done their work what guarantee do
they o3r thai it will be in conformity with
the federal constitution? That instrument
of onion UiretHs the President to maintain
a republican form of government in the
Sintt. and under a republican government
sffiirs are determined by a msjority of the
eop!e.
While the rest of the Union msy feci like
k'tting II issiwippi do as it pleases about
matters which concern that State alone, it
can hardly expect to carry its proposed os
tracism of a msjority of inhabitants into
affair that affect tbe rest of the States. If
tbe wbits arrogate to themselves alone, un
der forms of a State constitution, the right
to vote, they must be satisfied to be alone
represented iu the House of Representatives
and in the Electoral College. They cannot
be counted as only 473,396 in the govern
ment of iheir State, and as 1,1 J9,6i9 in their
relation to the rest of tbe country.
Delamater Praised.
From the Philadelphia Enquirer, of Julv -ad.
rriends of Senator Delamater were much
pleased. yesterday over the unsolicited and
very complimentary indorsement of the
Republican Gubernatorial candidate from
Rev. David H. Wheeler, LED, president
or the Allegheny College at Meadville, of
which Senator Delamater is a graduate. A
strong personal friendship exists between
Rev. Dr. Wheeler and Postmaster Kield, of
this city, and R was a private letter to Mr.
Field that the college president wrote : " It
may be of some use to you to know a fact or
two about our candidal for Governor.
First, be is a clean, straight, decent gentle
man ; not a trickster, or crooked in any way ;
second, be ia a regular attendant upon
church, and is identified with the good caus
es of the community. Third, be will com
mand a vote in this town and county a good
deal larger than his party, because of the
estimate in which be ia held. Pattison is a
rood luun, but no better than Delamater,"
Supplementing this in a postscript, Dr.
Wheeler said ! " It hapni, also, that 1
find D lamaler's college record is a very
hich oue ; I stumbled over It recently. I
mean his class standing. Rev. Dr. Wheeler
is well known throughout the state from
his prom i nine in the Methodist church.
Ha! ha! Again w remark, he! ha! It
is aisle.! the "the bout hern' States, at whose
elections the infsnmus (sic) force (sic) bill ia
aimed, will refuse to lake part in the World's
Fuir at Chicago in case of the passage of that
measure." Tbia forcibly recalls tbe Irish
man who swore "by jab rs, I'll cut the rope
if you don't haul rue up faster outoftbis
well." It also forcibly recalls tbs other
gentleman who cut off his nose to snite his

NORTH AND SOUTH. . w .
'A Comparison of the Vote Power
that Is Very Sugg-estiva.
Tbe Detroit T' presents some compar
ative facts and figures from which it is as
certained that the following Southern dis
tricts cast at tbe last Congressional election
fewer voles than the Wyoming district :
Tbe third Alabama, the first, second, third,
fourth, fifth, sixth, seventh, eighth and tenth
Georgia, the first, fourth and sixth Louisi
ana, the first, third, fourth, sixth snd sev
enth Mississippi, and the first, second, third,
fourth, fifth, sixth and seventh South Caro
lina, 25 in all. Of these districts 22 cast
fewer rotes than tbe territory of Idaho. Ac
count should be made also of the fact tbat
Idaho and Wyoming are increasing rapidly
in population and wealth, while the South
ern districts mentioned are mostly st a
stsndstill. In etjoitr the newly admitted
States are as much entitled to representation
in Congress a tbs Southern districts men
tioned. By virtus of Republican votes in
Congress they arc, fortunately, now legally
entitled to the same representation. A con
tinuation of comparisons between the votes
in certain Southern and Northern 8 tat as at
the last Congressional elections proves both
interesting snd suggestive :

It will be seen that the total vote of seven
districts in South Carolina was less than that
of a single district, the seventh, in Kansas,
and that one vote in South Carolina counted
as much as four and one-half votes in Kan
sas, one in Georgia more than as much as
three iu Michigan, and one in Mississippi,
more than two and one-half in Xew Jersey.
These figures speak of a suppressed vote in
the South ss clearly as Congressman Hemp
hill did when he said : " We realize that if
the negro be allowed freely to vote and
have his vote honestly counted and return
ed we, the white iople of South Carolina,
will be in the minority." ,
The New York Leper.
XiwYoBK.July 20. The leper, Msnnel
Garratus, who was removed by the health
officers from his boarding house, East Thirty-eight
street, is in tbe Pest House, on
North Brother's Island Co-day, under a sen
fence of death from whioh there is no ap
peal. His disease is known in there as one
of the "an.-ertbetic" variety. It is character
ized chit fly by numbpess of the parts affect
ed. His hands, a large spot on his breast
snd one foot are practically dead. In these
parts be can feel no pain or sensation. On
July 18 young Garratus went to the office of
Dr. Wiggin, West Forty-sixt street, for treat
ment. Tbs doctor had hjru call again aud
meantime notified the Health Board. On
July 20 tbe patient was examined, and Dr.
Hamilton, of the Health Board, and Dr.
Wiggin were satisfied that the case was one
of genuine leprosy.
Surgeon General Hamilton, of Washing
ton, was communicated with as to what
action the jrovernmetit would take in tbe
matter and tbe reply received from him yes
lerday stated that the government only at
tempted to prevent the importation of the
disease and tbat where it actually occurred
it was for Uie local authorities to deal with
it. He was then removed to North Broth
er's Island nntil his family, who are wealthy
can provide for him until his deatb.
uarratus came here from i ucatan, some
time sgo, to learn English. His father.
mother snd sisters joined' him here. There
is no trace of the disease in any of them.
The young man must have had it for nearly
two years, but he can give no history of it or
even suggest where or how it was contract
ed. A year ago, when playing 'ball, he
struck the one end of his fingers against the
ball and the joint came off without pain.
The wound healed and there was no hemor
rhage. ' K

some dozen of brick residences owned by
Americans, but the' remaining were frame

people. Tbe flames were confined to tbe
acres of closely packed bnildings. Tbe loss
is $100,000, chiefly on buildings, as tbe for

cates of each side swarmed around their
respective leaders, aud faced each other with
glaring eyes and threatening gestures.
Trouble was prevented by tbe chairman's
appeal that the ladies of the audience be
respected.
When Tillman was asked to name the
Senators whom be bad accused of being
perjurers, he began to read the names from
a list. When he mentioned tbe name of
General Moore, of Hampton, which he did
with special emphasis, ex Senator You mans
strode up to Tdlmsn snd denounced him ss
a liar.
Then there was a rush for Mr. You mans
Mr. Harrison cried out : "Tillman, you are
a liar if yon call General Moore a perjurer.
Men caught hold of each other in their efforts
o reach tbe stand. There were hurrahs for
Moore and pandemonium reigned. In the
very front of the crowd were the Hamilton
brothers, all of them rabid Tellnianites
They waved their hands and frantically
declared that no one should touch Till man
Chairman McSweeny rushed to tbe front
of the stage and shouted : "Gentlemen I brg
you for the honor of Hampton county to
keep quiet." No attention was piid to this
appeal, bnt be made another in behalf of tbe
ladies, and the factions ceased their ahgry
demonstrations, and friends of Mr. Harrison
had caught both of his bands and led him
away. Mr. Youmans was pushed back into
the crowd. Captain Tillman made no reply
to Mr. Youmans exceiit to say : "I can
prove it."
The Wife or the Crop.
Atlaxta, G.t., August 3. The attempt of
a colored preacher named W. H. Boone, in
Gordon county, to Sill by poison a family
of 10 person, three of his victims being now
dead, bas created intense excitement, and

ed in tbe jail. He put rat poison in the food
of a colored family named Lilley. Boone
puts the blame on his wife, saying she was
jealous of Mrs. Biileys affection for him.
Tbe wife puts it on the hiubind, spying be
sought to obtain possession of Lilley's crop.
The other victims arc not yet out of danger.
A Senatorshlp Involved.
Mostuoviet, Ala., Aug. 3. The State
election in Alabama will take place to-morrow.
There is but very little opposition to
tbe regular Democratic ticket and the indi
rations point to an increased Democratic
majority. The legislature to be chosen to
morrow will elect a successor to United
States Senator Pugh, and, there will be a
lively scramble. Governor Thomas Seay
and ex-Governor Thomas H. Watts are can
didates, and Senator Pugh will stand for re
election.
Kansas Corn.
Kaa CtTT, Mo., July 31. Special dis
patches from various points in Western
Kansas state that hot winds of the past two
or three days have materially reduced the
already low condition of crops in that part
of tbe State. Ths winds have literally cook
ed tbe corn nntil many fields will not yield
a single ear.
This condition prevails along tbe Missouri
Pacific from Concordia to the western bound
ary. bast of Concordia for a hundred miles
tbe yield of corn may under favorable con.
ditions smount to 5 or 10 per cent of la.-t
year's crop. From this piint east to Atchi
son the crop will be 40 to 50 per cent, of lau-t
year's yield if the rainfall continues moder
ste. In the dry spots of the Slate the bo)
winds have also burnt up the grass, so that
tlie yield will be very low.

Age of Apple Trees,
In this ptrt of the win Id W r' nothing of
sny eonsi qnence fn-in sn spple tree till it is
ten or tifieen years old. li is three or four
before we g-titfnini lh nursery ; seldom
les than five ) ears nioie before it begins to
bear, snd some five years more bsve to be
adh-d before we can get anything like a full
crop. It' we had but about fifteen more it
would hardly be worth while to grow fruit
trees. Thirty years of such husbandry would
require that wecalcnlated about three years
to s full crop from the ground, which would
be worse than giving a wbole year to noth
ing, as was once tlie rule in summer fallow
ing. We rather suspect that where trees
cease to be profitable after thirty years of
age, it is from some neglect which has i fleet
ed the constitution of the tree. It msy be
tbat borers have been allowed to board and
lodge in th trunk free of cliarg) for th sc
commodatioa : or ths soil bss been allowed
to become too poor; or they havs been al
lowed to bear all they were disposed to do
without thinning or assistants of sny kind.
In sny of which cases thirty years would
undoubtedly do for them.
If all these things are properly seen to,
and all tlie other little matters attended to
that those who cultivate fruit for profit
ought to know about, there is no reason why
an apple tree may not be profitable for fifty
years anywhere.
A Card of Thanks.
On the evening of July 31 iust.. the kind
people of Sltanksvilie and vicinity conspired
to surprise snd "pound"' the. undersigned.
The first we heard was a great bnra of
voices, followed by the tram tiling of many
feet. Ia a few more minutes we were com
pletely captured. About 50 or li) persons
in number representing nearly every family
in the community, at an appointed time and
place met together and marched in solid
phalanx to the residence of their resident
minister, completely surprising the occu
pants, aud without warning took complete
possession of the house. Hands were thrown
up, and surrender made, and the camphor
bottle called for; but the sight of our table
groaning under tbe weight of a variety of
good tilings, and the overflowing abundance
of good nature, kindness, aud smiles beam
ing forth from evi ry face had a more desira
ble effect ; so that we were soon sufficiently
recovered to gratify our curiosity in examin
ing the bundles, packages, papers etc.,
amounting in all to about $13. Somebody
must have told them all about us, for they
broutrht just such things as are needed.
To the credit of all, let it be said that some
who could not come, sent their gifts with
others. Our hearts were tilled to overflow
ing with gratitude, in so much that speech
making in a way of returning of thanks to
the kind donors wss next to sn impossibility.
After some time spent in social conversa
tion, and a few hymns sung by the young
people, they left us. Truly we appreciate
the people of Shanksville, not merely for
their gifts, but for their kindness in making
it pleasant for us during our stay here. We
thank them for all favors snd wish them
God's choicest blessings.
