liaa Ix'cn noiiiinatd by the Republicans
for Governor of Texjt. Mr. Flanagan
w ill find that he i not there to be Gov
ernor, by a lurpe mejority.
Kverv Ienjorratic g..ldier who has
been, or expects to be, ln'Pefited by the
penwion bill passed in Congress recently,
should rvrrtptnlier that it was the Repub
lican meiiiljcrs who passed it, the hewo
crats voting against it almost to a man.
F.x-Govei:nor Pattisox will either
liave to let go his Home Rnle issue, or, to
be consistent, will have to vote for the
other feilow. The ex-Governor was born
in Maryland, wbilrt his opponent, Iela
mater, is a native Pennsylvanian.
Majoe Mi KiNLEy believes that at the
next session of Congress a National anti
gerryoiandering law will be passed. It
ought to lie passed at this edition, so that
under the new apportionment gerry
uittndering would lie impossible.
A Pirn. wir.Li'Uu paper says that the
Democratic veterans of this 8tate propose
to vote the way they shot. The prospect
is that a lot of them everywhere w ill do
the same thing, and it won't make Dem
ocratic boitses glad cither.
The funny part of this campaign is
that the IVmot ratic organs sejm to have
an idea that Senator Quay is a candidate
for office. When he was a candidate for
office several years ago he was elected by
40,000 majority. That was the time to
fight Lira.
Tint New Hampshire Democrat de
mand "protection to fully compensate for
all differences between tbe cost of manu
facturing in this and foreign countries."
Senator Chandler must have imposed
this platform on the Democrats of his
fctate to have them endoise the Mckin
ley bill w ithout knowing w hat they were
doing.
The Hatfield-McCoy feud in West
Virginia is said to have been settled, and
those who a year Ago w ere merrily shoot
ing at each oilier have Fhaken hands and
buried the hatchet. Rut will this end
the hundred or so indictments for mur
der hanging over their heads?
IIenut Gkiri.e says the Democratic
party is rspidiy on iu way to free trade,
w ith no tariff at all. The only remark
able thing in this statement ia its truth,
but it is a truth that Democrats will not
admit for fear that they will lose votes.
Thk Republican Conference for the
purpose of nominating a candidate for
Congress f r this (20th "t district-will be
held at F.bensburg next Tuesday. The
Republican Senatorial Conference for the
:Uit.h district, composed of tiie counties of
Somerset, Bedford and Fulton, will meet
at Bedford on the same d y.
Tut Republican campaign will be for
mally opened by a mass meeting at Pitta
burg on Saturday, l '.th. Among other
celebreties w ho will be present and ad
dress the masses will be Major McKinley,
Senator Ingalls and General .Hastings.
The meeting will be one of the most im
portant of the campaign.
Senator Dklamatkr will be warmly
supported by the Republicans of Soiuer
sHoounty, and by election day all should
be inline for the whole ticket. There
are too many State and National issues
of moment involved in Uie present con
teat to just ify the injection of either per
sonal or fictional feelings into the can
vass. The hotly waged contest between Mr.
George Shirss and Colonel Stone for the
Republican Congressional nomination in
Allegheny. 2X1 distrust, resulted suocess
ful'y for Colonel Stone by a majority of
from three to four thousand. Colonel
Stone will make an able ReprA-ntative,
and we extend our hearty congratula
tions to him upon his signal triumph at
Saturday's primaries.
Ukdism aver by the odds against them,
w ing to tbe ahaaielew Democratic ger
rymander of Congressional districts, the
Maryland Ilepublicans have (rone to
work vigorously aud promptly this year.
Tbey have already wiade Dominations in
live out of six districts, and they will
hammer the Gorman ring very hard in
the sharp campaign they propose to
make. Such Republicanism as this is
the kind that win in the end. Three
out of the six Maryland Representatives
are liow Republicans. One of these, Sid
oey E. Mud J, w ho has just been renomi
nated, was a successful contestant for tbe
scat for th Fifth District before the
f- ir-rr - ai naiiT m' ir i --iri'
House Klrt tion Committee, t being prov.
ea that bin antagonist, Barnes Cororrton,
obtained his seat by the most barefaitil
fraud. The pro; pines and enery of
Maryland Republican ought to be enio
ktcd by Republ leans every w here.

Farmers and th Tariff.
From U Y, fir. i v ' '
tkm plain and wr.sifcie remarks upon the
relation of protection to arming were made
recently in tbe United States Senate by Mr.
Moody of South Dakota. As the represen
tative of a State whose population is largely
engaged In agrknUure. Mr. Moody ha riven
ei.-ia! study to the policy of protection as
it effects his constituenu. The r.-nu quote
with comiueodalion these strong and con
vincing words from his speech :
' Now. Mr. President, the position I take is
this : If more people were enframe! in rnatiu
Ucturing and mining, and thus the con
sumption were enhanord. who could doubt
but wtiat the business of farming would be
more prosiierous.
'J lie trouule. is we pay too much to the
foreign manufacturer, whose operntivta we
cannot reac.ti with our produce, if the mil
lions whirb are expenuVd annually lor ttre
products of the foreign loom a:d workshop
wr-rt expended in our own country to pay
tbe mecbanics and la!5rers who would be
necessarily ene&ged in like production here,
there would be no complaint of depression
in tbe businesa ,f farmiug nor in tue prices
ol labor.
Wtiat this country needs above all process
es for its prosperity "i the employment ot all
our people wio are now idle, and an equali
zation ot the d.lierrut kinds of employment.
Mr. Moody, with sound and philosophical
reasoning, has gone to the very heart of the
tariJ problem, and the I'rat commends his
arguments to the consideration of farmers
in other Slates than the agricultural com
monwealth he represents. Ia another por
tion of histpeech Mr. Moody, referring to
talk about farmers burning corn fjr fuel,
said :
The farmeron the Western prairie, though
lie may not have at t!ie time a remunerative
market for wtiat he raises, remembers thai
pn are elevated and they are depressed.
He knows that if be cauuot sill to-day he
may tie able to sell to-morrow, aud to olfsel
that (iing at those men, aud, if 1 ran, refute
the inference which is to be drawn from
such an aiwertion, 1 want to point Senators
lo the fait that in that vrry country now
corn brings forty-five cent jut bushel.
If Mr. Moody had presented a table of the
prices of grain for the past few years he
woa'.d bave been able to show that it was in
the period of doubt over tbe tanl poiiry.
bronght about by tbe election of a Democrat
ic Prt:de:it, with the consequent languish
ing of manufacturing industry, that corn
went down in price until it was burned for
fuel. He could have shown, moreover, that
during the four years of Democratic rule our
great agricultural staple, wheat, brought the
lowest prices since and by way of con
trast, that under the present Republican ad
ministration, it has gradually risen in price
to over a dollar a bushel at the present time.
The agriculturists of the country will not
require any elaborate argument in favor of
home markets under the protective tariff
policy when they have good prices for their
products such us now prevail.
PRESS COMMENTS.
From tlio t 'am'irla Herald.
"Our next Governor George Wallace Dela
niater, is traveling over the State, giving
everybody a chance to see him and hear
what he is got to say. He makes friends
w herever be goes, and especially among tte
farmers, laborers and old soldiers, and, in
deed, we will not be surprised if his majority
over Pattison at the November election will
be ioO.'nW. Hoop Vr uji for Delamalcr and
the w hole ticket."
From the Kt. LouU 4.;tolic-l) morruL
Nr. McKinley is the Republican leader on
tbe floor of the House, and one of the ablest
and most conspicous members of his party in
tbecounirv. Even his ruoM ardent enrniirs
f.-ct-ly testify to hisdiKiiitv, courage, m.d
honesty. Moreover, in the present exigency
Jie standi as the apostle and chief exponent
of an economic faith which has held sway
throughout thecoutMry without iuterruption
for nearly a third of a century. It lstiue
that a large element of the party of which
be is a chieftain reject soma of his teachings
and declare that mi'-h of his teachings and
declare that much of the doctrine w hich he
inculcates has bren cutgn;wn and is injuri
ous under present cxii.ditions. To a lai-ge
extent, however, the parly as a whole must
accept the responsibility of his leadership
and staiid or fall in the canvass! this year
on the creed which he represents. It is for
thexe reasons that the contest in the K gh
teenth Ohio District isd:vested of its purely
local features, and elevated into national
significance. While tbe chances appear, at
this distance from the event, to be against
tbe distinguished Oilman's return toOnrgresn
next term, the fears for tbe re.ult which the
Iemocrat are beginning to display indicate
that tbe situation, from the Republican
point of view, is not altogether destitute ol
elements of hopefulness.
From the New York Tribune.
Mr. r.reckinridge, of Arkansas no longer
profits by the lottery of assansination. Jus
tice has been done long after the patience of
the country has been exhausted. The House
after a laborious investigation and a debate
protracted by the lowest arts of political iu
trigueis has declared the seal vacant by a
party vote of I 'Jo to t'i not one Democrat
being found to condemn the Arkansas elec
tion outrages beginning with robbery of bal
lot -boxes aud ending i;h a foul and atrocious
ruu:der. So indecent aud dishonorable has
been Mr. r.reckinride's conduct from the day
o Colonel Clayton's death that it hardly
seemtd possible that he could abash the
House with his effrontery In the closing
debate. This be succeeded in doing when
he declared in the course of a siwecb reeking
with the dregs of bitterness that the murder
ed man was his "bosom friend," and that
tbe Plummersvilie ballot-box was stolen by
Republicans. This amazing display cf
andacity was justly dtsrrib?d by Mr. Dalzeil
as the sublimity of impudence. Mr. Oar
land showed the lengths lo which Indeoency
can be earned by an Arkansas statesman
when he fastened himself tenaciously upon
tbe Department of Justice after his telephone
stork jobbing was laid bare. Mr. Breckin
ridge has even surpassed M r. Garland in
shameleasnesa throughout this wretched
business.
Brwckanridga'a Seat Declared
Va-
cant.
Wasiiisutos, Sept. i By a vote of 100 to
C- the House yesterday declared brecken-
ridge's Beat vacant. Mr. Dalzjll, of Pius
burg, read in detail the testimony bearing
on tbe theft of the bailot box at Plummer
ville and said that iu theft was absolutely
necessary to Mr. Breckcnridse's return.
Yet he stood here and said it had been stolen
by Republicans thn Republican ballot box.
He commented upoo the backwardness of
the Siata of Arkansas in endeavoring to
bunt down tbe murderers. The sky of the
Second district of Arkansas was luminous
with blood of John M. Clayton and cried to
heaven, not for vengeance, but for justice,
and members on both sides were here as
sacred ministers to execute her just decree.
Tha McDowell Bribery.
Xtw Castle. Pa., SepL 4. The Lawrence
county grand jury to-day ignored tbe bills
againatall the pernons who had been prose
cuted for connection with the alleged bribery
which resulted in tbe nomination of Mc
Dowell for Congress. Tle opponents of
McDowell charge that the bills were ignored
because of the close relations between the
District Attorney and W. D. Wallace, who
i alleged to have handled the money. They
intimate thai the prosecatioos will he renew
ed. There is no doubt, bowevsr, that tbe
action of tbi grand jury has rreatlv strength
toed McDowell s ease.

Th Comlnn National Apoartlofi-msnt.
T!ie Philadelphia t'rtn is entitled to tba
credit ot the discovery that the new national
apportionment must show a great gain to
Republican strength, simply because Repub
licans sections have in" The past ten years
shown tbe greatest progress. Grouping and
comparing this growth, the I'reu then advo
cates a fair apportionment bill, without ma
nipulation either by decrease ofincreasj,
which will, if done in December next, show
very proper and very gratifying results. Tbe
ordinary motive for changing the toem'.ier
ship of the House U to prevent the loss of
Representatives by certain States. An in
crease has been made under this motive in
very dioad bat on Lit a century.- - The
size of the House at every apportionment
lias been as follows:

Xo apch motive exists lira change now.
In New Enland. Machiseiti is the only
State likely to lose a member if the prevent
number is retained, in the Middle States,
i'ew York will lose two and New Jersey
gain one, but Use other S:atea maintain their
representation. In the South, Alabama
gains a member and Kentucky, Tennessee,
South Carolina, and Virginia each lose one ;
small changes wiitn thirteen States are to be
considered. Colorado, Kansas, Oregon, and
Washington gain one each, Nebraska two,
and Minnesota three, while Indiana and
Iowa lose one member each and Ohio two, a
net gain of Sve to this section. In the nine
ty years since Ohio was first admitted no
apportionment has been tbe membership
under a previous apportionment fit so well
the needs of new distribution in the West.
These broad public reasons are supple
mented by tbe political conditions which
the new apportionment mast produce, what
ever ratio is selected. With 112 members it.
the House and s- in the Senate the Electoral
College will contoin 4-3 members. These
will be divided as follows :

Delamaterat Allentown.
Allentuw!c, Pa., Sept. 5 The Republi
cans cf Allentown to nigiit gave a warm
welcome and reception to Senators Delama
tsr and Wa'.re and Secretary of Internal Af
fairs Stewart, the Republican candidates who
will to-morrow address the annual county
meeting at Saetrcrsville, in the upper end of
the county. After dining at the American
H'dol the candidates were serenaded by the
Allentown band. Senator Delamater in the
course of his speech, Baid
"The Republican party to-day looks Jor
ward aud not backward. It is the party of
the people. It discusses, determines and
puts in operation practical things, benefit
ing the people, not only of this common
wealth, but of the nation 1 am proud to
appear and stand here as the representative
of protection. Ia this campaign my oppo
nent appears with the mask torn off, and he
stands as the avowed representative of free
trade. We arc engaged in a great strugie
cow, but we are on the eve of a greater one
in 1S32, in which this issue will be even
more clearly defined. On this account this
Slate must do iu best, not in a mild way.
but in a most emphatic way.
"The Republican party has taken a stand
in its platform on the question of Slate tax
a:ion. The rar,y CBS taien tbe view that
the land of (lie farm, your homes and mine,
have been excessively taxed and bear more
than their burden of pnblic expenses as
against the corporations. That view is mine.
I have come to the same conclusion. The
party says to the farmer that it will give
him relief ; that it w ill put on the corpora'
tioii and on iersonal property their shares ol
taxation, and that it will put on enough tax
S3 that the counties can be paid back suffi
cient to atfiird a relief that will be felt al
once by the farmer and land owner. That
is the kind of talk I like. If I am ehcted
Governor I promise to see this carried out.
We will I able to raise money tnoi'gh to
give to the needy relief mid give it promptly,
To-day Pennsylvania stands practically free
from debt, owing to our wise and economic
administration, and 1 figure it out that
enough can be secured from the corporations
to increase tbe school fund in each county

"I am a Republican and stand on tbe Re
publican platform. I believe iu all that
which has inspired the Republican party in
the last 27 years ; in saving a nation's life,
in freeing a race that was iu slavery ; in giv
ing tbe right to vote to all men, irrespective
of color ; in the grand work of reconstruc
tion ; in giving a socrid currency and wise
banking system that has made us oue of the
greatest nations of theeirlb, and in throw

A Dastardly Act.
Ai iuxy, X. Y , SepL 5. The second sec.
tionoflhe Montreal Express on the New
York Central and Hudson River railroad
was wrecked at about midnight last night
four miles south ofUreenbush by the das
tardly work of some unknown fiends. For
tunately no loss of life or serious injuries
resulted although 61 passengers were on the
train. The train consisted of an ensine and
eight sleeping cars. When the engine
struck tbe obstruction the whole train wu
thrown from the track. Tbe first sleeping
car containing twenty-lwe passengers slid
down ! it enbinkment and came to a stand
still on its side. The second coach turned a
complete somersait and landed in the ditch
bottom up. In this car was only one pas
senger, Mrs. Jenkins, of Erooklyn, the con
ductor and porter. Mrs. Jenkins was badly
frightened, but not seriously hnrt. Tbe
t'nrJ ear was thrown directly across the
ditch. The other five cars did not leave tbe
road. Ou receipt of the news of the accident
Superintendent Eisxdl left here with a re
lief train. Uj making an investigation as
to the cause of the wreck Mr. B.ssel found a
rail jammed into the cattle guard, and wedg
ed with timbers and securely held by the
fish plates, the whole arrangement being
piaced in a slanting position so as to lift the
train clear off tbe track.. ' Crntiruing bis in
vestigation Mr. BiMsel found a similar ob
struction piaced on the south bound track a
Rule above where the other obs ruction was
found. Ail the passengers were brought to
Albany on the relief train. Third Vice
President Webb has telegraphed Superin
tendent Bisscl that he has cfTared a reward
of $3,0o0 for tbe detection and conviction of
the persons who placed the obstruction on
the track.
Baked In a Coal Ptt.
WiLKtsmsRC, Pa.. Sept. 4 By an ex
plosion of gas in the No. 4 colliery of the
Kingston Coal Co., situated at Edwardsvillc,
this afternoon, time men were fatally hart.
They were at work in an airway clearing np
some fallen top coal, when a body of gas
that bad accumulated from the fallen coal
was fired by their oaksd lamps. A violent
explosion followed, which tore everything
to pieces. Tbe men were baked beyond rec
ognition and otherwift injured.
A Fimifti Feud Ended.
HrirTticcDox, W. Va., Sept. 5 The Tu
sayst "Tbe famous Hatfield McCoy feud is
at on end. After partaking1 in the bloody
butchery of all the men they could kill,
after liviig ;n outlaw, with prices on their
head defying arrest and oarting meetings
with their r neciies, after seeing their young
men shot down, their old ones murdered,
with no good accomplished, they have at
last agree d on either side to let tbe matter
restl Two men were seen on our streets yes
terday, conversing together in a friendly
manner and t.-gMiier taking in the sights of
our city. One was a brother-in-law of tbe
old man McCoy, the other a son-in-law of
Anse Hal field. They spoke freely of the
fatuouaffitj, iid Mid that by omiuoo eon
sent it would be allowed to cease. Both the
parties have g jne lack !' work and are liv
ing honest liVes without troubfing a'tout
each other. West Virginia and Kentucky
may both njoice at the termination of the
feus) and tuny hope that their annals may
never again be stained with a similar ocair
rctire." A numb-T of the members of both factions
are still under hiJictment for murder and
crimes less grave, but if they have agreed to
live at p?ac lhy will probably not be
troubled on 'aoconnt of these charges. The
ftud bus been in progress nearly 20 years,
and in that time at least a score of the Hat
fields and MctYys have been murdered.
Only one member of either side has
been legally punished. That was ' Cap
Hatfield, who was hanged at Pikevillo, Ky.,
some months ajio for the brutal murder of
Alfara McCoy, a young girl whom he shot
down as she was trying to escape from her
father's housr, which the Hatfie'ds bad fired.
A Stolen Daughter Found.
CHArxani!, S. Dak , Sept 5 An inter
esting story comes from the Crow Creek
roservatior.. A badly crippled vettran of tbe
civil war, now a settler on the reservation,
has iust received intelligence which makes
his heart glad. About 14 years ago while
this man, B V. B.i'.ch, was living in Missou
ri, bis little girl, then o years old, was stolen
from his home by some unko vn ersxns,
and for jeers, although much time and
raonry was spent in the search, no trace of
the lest one could be found. A communi
cation of Balch's to the authorities at Wash
ington regarding his pension was recently
published and ought his daughter's eye.
who has been residing in Texas. She at
once opened np communication with Mr.
Balcb and by the aid of a pair cf ear-rings
that she wore at the time she was abducted
has convinced him beyond all doubt that
she is his long-lost daughter.
The delight of the father can better be
imagined than described, and be can hardly
wait until her arrival, she having left Texas
to join her fubcr in his reservation home.
She Wanted a Baby.
Eellaike, 0.. Sept. 5. An obliging neigh
bor lady, who called in to assist Mrs. Susan
Trymsn, of this place, during the latter's at
tentions to a sick fc iy, carriI Mrs. Tryman's
baby home with her, a:id after cutting all
the bair ofT the li ttie fellow's bead, she made
preparations to become a mother. She re
tired to bed aud sent a messenger to ber hus
band, who was working Iu tbe mill, that she
had become a mother, and to hasten home
to see bis new born son. The happy father
hastened horns and rushed into the room,
when the little stranger was held up and
the proud father took it tenderly in his arms
giving it a fond parental kiss. But just
then the frantic real mother rushed into the
room, snatched tbe little fellow from the
supposed father's arms and rushed madiy
out of th bouse and hurtled home with her
little oue. The dialogue between husband
and wife must be imagined.
Cannot Sell In Fayette.
VioxTows, Pa., Sept. 4. A strong effort
is being made to break np the illegal liquor
traffic that is carried on in the coke region
by Pittsburg dealers through local agents.
A test case was tried this afternoon, George
H. Brookman, of Cr.nnellsville. being the
defendant. It was developed that Brookman
solicited orders for beer and whisky for Bnu
erin A Co , of rittsbarg ; that tbe kegs were
consigned to other parties ; that Brookman
collected the bills, paid his brothers for
hauling the stuff to the consumers and re
tained his own fee. The defense sought to
show that Bauerin & Co. were a licensed
firm and could deliver their goo-Is in the
county. TteCju-t replied lb it Biuerin
Co. were not licensed to do business in Fay
ette county, and the traffic Brookman bad
been carrying on was illegal, and under the
charge the jury promptly convicted tbe de
fendant. This sort of traffic has become a
great nuisance in the coke region, and it is
thought this will tend to break it np.
