I'effer and Jerry Simpson b!h want John Sherman defeated in bio. This is an excellent reason why Sherman should be re-elected. Cox(.kssmas Springer is the only Northern man now in the rv for Speak er. If the Democratic party wants to prove to the country that it is not owned and controlled in the South, it should elect Springer. Coxc;ee5v.a- Ccisr, candidate for the Speakership, is not ot recent English de scent, but belongs to an old Virginia family, w ho remained in the )ld Domin ion until the outbreak of the civil war, and then removed to Georgia. He is a lawyer by profession and was on the bench before his first election to Con gress, seven years ago. One of Governor McKinley's mots, uttered in Lis late speech at Boston, con tains a world of thought. "A proctecti ve tariff cheapens products ; a revenue tariff cteipens men." This is the republican doctrine in a nutshell. We do not want to cheapen men in this country, nor to bring our wage-earners down to the standard of wages and of living that pre- ails in England and throughout Europe. Governor Pattisoj. on Saturday after noon last ended the struggle for the place on the Supreme Court bench made vacant by the death cf Jnsuce uiais, oy appointing C. E. Heydrick, Es.j., of Venango county. Mr. Heydrick is but little known throughout tLe State, but is said to a lawyer of respectable attain ments. His occupancy of the position will be a brief one, as he will have no show for an election next fall, when the full Republican vote of the State will be out at tee Presidential election. Governor II ill said last week : "New York is Democratic We want a Demo cratic Legislature, and we will Live it unless cowardice and fraud shall prevent us." The Governor has been successful. His canvassing beard lias succeeded in stealing the Fifteenth Senatorial District, after the Republican who was elected Las been removed by death. Instead of ordering a new election the Democratic anvassing board trumped up enough illegal votes to declare the defeated Dem ocrat elected, and New York will have a Democratic Legislature as well ss a Iem acratic Governor. Governor Hill and Tammany are in complete control of the E mpire State. Every cne of the Democratic candi dates for Sjeaker of the next Hou.- is a pronounced free trader. Mills is perhaps the most rabid of any of them, but Crisp, McMillin, Springer and Hatch all belong to the same school. The fact is, the Democratic leaders are all "tarred with the same stick," and it makes but little difference, so far as the tariff is con oerneJ, which of them is elected. Free trade has be.-ome the one great central idea of the leruocracy aud every petty leader must swallow it. It will I in the platform and on the banners of the party next year, and therefore it is a logical sequence that the Speaker of the next House must be a free trader. No wiser selection could have been made than that of James S. Clarkson, of Iowa, as Chairman of the Republican National Committee. Eminently repre sentative of the vigorous and progressive sentiment of the party, be is thoroughly practical and as thoroughly honorable. His methods are virile and above board. He is incapable of trickery, while a mas ter of political strategy in the best and highest sense. The most emphatic trib ute to Mr. Clarkson is the fact that the enemy dread him, while they respect him. His selection is an assurance that there will be no lack of energy and fore sight on the part of the National Com mittee in the great struggle of 1892 for the maintenance of American industrial independence. Thb old saying, "All cry and little wool" is being exemplified by the lemo cratic shouts of victory over the late election ic Massachusetts. It is true that they re-elected their Governor, but where, in the election returns, they lind any justification for claiming Massachu setts as a Itemocratic State is hard to dis cover. The Republicans elected all their candidates except Governor, by more than ll.ftirt plurality. Lieutenant Gov ernor Halle, received 11.351 more votes than the Democratic candidate, and the other Republican candidates received even larger pluralities. Governor Rus sell's personal popularity carried him through, but did not avail to save any of the other candidates on tbe ticket with him. His election was a personal tri umph, but the vote of the State shows that it is Republican and will undoubt edly cast ber vote for the Republican Presidential candidate next vear. O.n Monday next tbe 7th inst. the Fifty-second Congress cf the United states will be organized at Washington, with a Democratic majority in the House of Representees so large that it will probably prove acniacaable, and as Henry Watterson says, very possibly dangerous to that party. TLe contest for tbe great office of Speaker, which is sec ond only to that of President, has already engendered strife and bitterness among the supporters of the rival candidates, and it is only fair to presume that the jealousies engendered by the appoint ment of the committees under tbe sole control of the Speaker the difference of opinion rejrardirjg the unlimited coinage of silver and other minor matters of leg isla'ioa well know n to exist in the party, will long before tbe session closes, prove the danger cf too large a msjority. Judg ing from past experience, it is reasonable to conjecture that the nn wieldly Demo cratic msjority in the coming Hcuse will so demean itself as to make a Repub'ican President and a Republican Hons of Representatives the products of the elec tion of 192. Divested of all responsi bility for legislation in fact powerless, except for prot-st the Republican mi nority in the House tan do little else than "lay low and saw wood." and "watch the wheels go round." With a Republican President and a Republican Senate we may feel suiethat no treat harm will come to the Republic by fa son of the immense Democratic msjority in the House, which will vainly expend its force in churning up froth by dashing against these bulwarks of Protection and staple currency. e Sesatob Causlc U oot in a letter fa voring Mills for Speaker becu Mr. Mills stands for free trade. The Ken tucky Senator came near losing bis tcalp n that issue three years ago, but he has the Kentucky recklessness in many things. Os the 9th day of this month Great Britain's Prime Minister told one audi ence that "the cause of protection does not sink ; it rises." On the 24th be told another audience of Bntons that the in creasing depression of agriculture in Her Majesty's kingdom is due to free trade. "The non-tillage of the land," he said, "is due to the withdrawal of protection, under which the soil formerly grew wheat- Nowhere in the world will you find corn grown without protection." American free traders tell American farmers that protection diminishes agri cultural prosperity. But the Prime Min ister of England tells English farmers that free trade hasdimin'ished the pro duction of grain, and adds that "nowhere in the world is corn (ahich is the Eng lish generic term for all kinds of cereals) grown without protection." It is beyond question that the British Prime Minister knows what free trade Las done for British agriculture better than Roger i Mills, of Texas, or than Mr. Grover Cleveland, of New York, does, and Lord Salisbury's declaration is in words that the wayfaring man, though a fool, can not but understand. Democratic Crave Robber. From the N. Y. lress. o other word so fitiy describes the action of toe Democratic oilicials in the Fifteenth Senatorial district as that they have com mitted grave robbery. With Gilbert A Deane, tbe Republican candidate, hardly cold in bis grave, they hare declared that be wis not entitled to the certificate of election, although he had a clear and honest major ity. Tbe methods by which they have reached this conclusion have been so fla grantly iliegai that the courts are to be in voked to force a rectification of their decis ion. It is usekss to recite in detail tbe means by which they hare falsified the re turns, changed votes from Deane to Ot borne, rejected votes that were alleged to be marked because a printer's "quad" appeared on them, and so manipulated the returns and votes as to rob the dead. Tbe ghouls bave done their work, and their hands are covered with the rooldtring smell of the graveyard, never to be effaced. Respectable Democrats in the district condemn the pro ceeding. Newspapers which supported Mr. Flower for Governor denounce tbe theft. If allowed to go unwhipped of justice these i grave robbers will think that they are en titled to the praise of the Democratic party which they disgrace, and will glory in tb.ir foul deeds Their work must be undone in the courts, and they must themselves be made to feci tbe power of law and justice, or republican institutions will have received a serious blow. Triumphant Fraud, Pot gukeevsii, N.Y., Nov. 2.-, The Board of County Canvassers completed their work to-night and adjourned. At one time it see met 1 as though the vigorous comments of the a(ers and the expressions of disgust freely heard on eytry side were having an eflect. In tact, on two or tbree votes ibrte Democrats voted with the Republicans, but two of ibein were whipped iclo liue and voted with their party. One, Brewster of Wappingers, finally pulled clear out and Voted with tbe Republicans against stealing Votes to deprive other candidates of their offices. Tbe result of the day's work was to cive Wheeler (Rep.) bis seat liom the First As sembly district by a small majority. He was alive, and it was therefore not quite so handy a thing to steal bis seat, and not quit so safe, but they cheated the Republican County Treasurer out of his office, or tried to. They did their part at least. The rest of the county ticked was canvassed, aud allowed as reported election night. Tbe end is not yet. Sherril, the treasurer. is alive, and will fight for bis office to tbe la-. Hasbrouck, who was given his place. has always been considered a very honora ble man, and some doubt that Ge wiil be willing to turn fence and become a receiver of stolen goods at bis time of life. As to Os borne, he will take anything political in reach that is not nailed fast. Tbe law will be invoked as S3n as poss.ble and tbe con test settled. American Corn Meal for Russians. Starving St. rrrtnsurR';, November 2iJ. A num ber of deaths from starvation have occurred among tbe famiue-strii ken people in the province of Sanianara. Rev. Mr. Francis the pastor of the Anglo-American Church in this city has j'ist received from Colonel Charles J. Marphy 150 kilograns (over .too pounds) of Ind.aa corn meal as a contribu tion for the relief of famine sufferers. Colo nel Murphy, who is specially commiesioned by the United States Agricultural Depart ment to call attention in Europe to the val ue of Indian corn as an article of food, promises more contributions of corn meal for famine relief if the use of that already received is approved. Heydrick Succeeds Clark. IlAKSisr.t Bc,, Nov. 2!. 1..T0 a. m. The Governor has appointed C. I'.. Heydrick, Esrj., of Franklin, Venango county, as Judge of the Supreme Court, vice Hon. Silas M. Clark, deceased. Charles E. Heydrick is a leading lawyer of large and intricate practice in the oil region counties of Venango, Warren, t raw ford and Erie. He is a member of the Ve nango couDty bar, a resident of Franklin, and baa been in active practice for a penod of :k years, being intimately idealised witn the fieculiar character of cases and causes due to oil region operations and properties. Haunted By a Spook. BLACKirro.tE, Mass., Nov. 3k Tbe Provi dence and Worcester i rood has a spook which has its headquarters at Farnumsville Night after nigbt, when tbe late train from Providence to Worcester rushes by a certain spot, it is said this pbantom appears sudden ly in the glow of tbe Headlight, and before tbe apparent danger can be averted, the en gine crushes into the sombre gray figure in front. There is no shock, aud passengers know not of what is passing. Tbe train is brought to a standstill, and tbe trainmen look for the mangled body, instead, however, the form slowly retreats into the shadows of the for est which lines the track, and then disap pears in the blackness of 'he night. South Dakota Want Melbourne. Miixeb, S. D., Nov. 2 Rainmaker Mel bourne and prominent citizens here are cor responding with a view of having tbia sec tion of tbe State moistened during next season's crop period with showers made to order. Melbourne claims in his letters that bis rainstorms extend' 1"0 miles, and be wants several counties to join in raising the required sum. As the rainmaker wants no y until the rain isaclually produced, there is Lttle doubt that a contract will be closed. Attempt on Dr. Hall's Life. New Yosk, Nov. 2!). John George Roth, a crazy German of middle age, attempted to kill tbe Rev. John Hall, D. D., pastor of the Fifth Avenue Presbyterian Church after the morning service to-day. by firing three shots at him from a revolver. None of the shots took eflect. The would-be assassin was im mediately arrested and lodged in jail. Indiana Again Stirred Up. Bixst, S. D, November Si. One year ago this city and county were in an uproar over tbe Indian scare, and now reports from the reservation country say the Indians bave been stirred up by roving band of renegades and that ttey only wait some excuse to break away from official authority to plun d?xand murder. Can. Palmer's Met jt. liaooELvs, Nov. 17."' But In. Lrir.f hon or to the ip'.e of the South, ifc, jr should not confront at with that siin'ficg old flag of treason." These were he word of Goaara! Palmer, Oramander-in Coief of the Grand Army of the Rep-jbliC, which numh M,000 men. in tbe course of his remarks at an early hour yesterday morning, at the banquet giv en in bis honor, and also in honor of Gen. Charies H. Freeman, tbe 8 tale Department Commander of the G. A. R. in the Clarendon hotel, Brooklyn. There was an outburst of applause from many of the Grand Army who were present, while others smiled and whispered that the General was excited. General Horatio C. King, Secretary of tbe Society of tbe Army of the Potomac, who was chosen as loa&imax'.er at tbe Clarendon dinner when Postmaster George I. Collins retired from the chair, was believed to be instrumental in provoking the fiery remarks of General Palmer. After telling a humor ous story , General King referred to tbe ad dress miJe by Commander in-Chief Palmer at tbe reception held in tbe early part of the night at tbe Fourteenth Regiment Armory. He construed what General Palmer bad said at tbe Armory as the expression of a de&ire for t be severance of fraternal relations with Southern veterans if tbe Confederate flag were to be used on occasions where I'uion veterans fraternized with them.' In his reply to General King General Pal mer said : " There is bo set of men on God's earth that are naif so appreciated for their gaiiautry and valor, or that so reflected cred it on Anferican valor, and whom we are so willing to forgive, as tbe soldiers of the South. Rut we caunot forget tbe loss of hundreds of millions of money and the lives of hundred of thousands of men who are now lying in their graves because of tbe re bellion. R'lt in doing honar to tbe people of the South they Bhould not confront us with tdat stinking old rag of treason. I be lieve that the men who were in tbe struggle at the front want no more fighting, but w ben we listen to the young scions who aay that tbe Confederacy is to tbeni an inspiration, and that tht y will avenge the cause of their sol dier?, it ii too much to bear in silence. Loy alty to the stars and stripes will ever nerve ns in the cause of the Union," Thieves Use Chloroform. TiTt cvii.LE, Pa., Nov. IT. One of tbe most sensatioi a burglaries that ever occurred in this section took plue in tbe west end of the city some time Wednesday night. The police Lave endeavored to keep the matter quiet in order that the perietralors of the outrage might be caught, but the facts have at last leaked out. Mrs. McGinnett is a widow with four chil- dn n dependi ng on her for support. Bbe is a carpet weaver. Her residence is on New stteet. During the night mentioned the old est daughter and a M iss Looney; from Sun vilie, were sleeping in a bedroom downstairs while Mrs. McGinnett and tbe three other children occupied rooms on the second floor. The robbers entered tbe down stairs bedroom window by prying l Pn "itu jimmy they chloroformed the two sleepers, went up stairs and did the same to tbe rest of tbe fnmily, and then ransacked tbe bouse. When they left they took with them about f'JS, jl' of which belonged to Miss Looney and was in btr drets pocket. Tbe balance of the money was taken from a bureau draw er and reprefenied all the cash the poor woman had in tbe world-. Ambitious to Steal. Civ i.nsati, O., Nov. 21 Reed Case, 16 years old, the son of a prominent Cincinnati broker, is one of the most notorious thieves this country has ever produced, and it is his highest ambition to be so considered. At 12 years of age he was a cigarette and dime novel fiend, and at U be chloroformed and robbed his father of a large sum. He was then sent to an uncle in Indianapolis, but in less than a month had robbed him of $300 and d.sappeared. He was captured and sent to a reform school from which he soon escaped and went South with a gang of fakirs. He was again caught and sent to tbe reform school, but after a short time managed to bribe a boy to get him some chloroform, with which he rendered tbe clerk onconsclous and again escaped, taking with him some money found in a safe drawer.

Tbe flag which waved above theffice of tbe New York TVW.um in 1SK4. and which kept on waving for Blaine, indeed, for sev eral days after the election, and then hsd to be called in, has never, at any rate, been low ered on one particular issue, namely, tbe Protection of American Agriculture and In dustry. The 7V3iar has never yie-ided an inch on that question Last year it engaged Roswell G. Uorrof Michigan, to devote him self in the columns of the paper to an enter taining, masterly and effective fight for the Republican view of tbe Tariff, Ueciprocity, Coinage, the Currency, and the new prtjec-s of the Farmers' Alliance. Tbe Tribune has made a brilliant and ins tractive fight on all these questions ; and it now announces, in its prospectus for 192, that Mr. Horr will continue right on in his work through the columns of the paper during ISitt. There is no doubt but that the Tciimne will, through the Presidential year, be a most valuable help to every Republican who wants to in form himself on Republican doctrine, and to Democrats and Alliance men it will be tbe best national book of reference, for an un derstanding as to what tbe Republicans in tend.
