Mr. IJkya.v says the Democratic
parly is more harmonious than ever
before. He feels sorry for any one who
could call a juartt-t of dinners a dis
cord. One of the things that may be taken
for granted is that at the 15rati hau-I'.K-td

The anxiety exhibited hy the Demo

truly touching.

Speaker Meed's latest epigram is
one of hi lest. J J'-- s-ys the preaideucy
is ' f'ur years of imprisonment with

The dedication of the JIartranft

Miles, and Admiral Schley.
L'r to date the bribery investigation
c diimiUee have had several rural states
men on the stand who swore poiut
blauk that they were offered money fur
t'uir votes, and the fellows so chargtd
have taken the stand and under oath
denied that they did any such thing.
There is evidently some very tall lying
going on, but as to who is 'doing it
"You pays your money and takes your
choice."
Last Thursday Ioss Flinn cracked
his whip, aud Representatives Koontz
and Kendall, who were instructed to
vote for Quay for United States Sena
tor, instantly jumped to their feet and
cast their votes for one Charles Tubbs.
And now the average Somerset county
Republican is querying his neighbor:
."Who the d 1 is Tubbs?' - If Boss
Flinu were to order: "Vote for Beelze
bub," we doubt not but that our Repre
sentatives would meekly do so.
The trial of rx -Senator Quay on a
charge uf extiispiracy b tlwe the State's
luoiuy unlawfully was commenced It
f re Judge Biddle, in Philadelphia,
Monday. A jury was seen red without
delay, aud the cae is now under full
headway. The friends of the Secafor
are confident of Lis acquittal at the
bauds of the jury. The outcome of the
now celebrated case will be watched
with great interest, not only through
out the S'ate, but throughout the coun
try. Its final decision will likely have
much to do with the election of a Uni
ted States Senator.
The fate that befell Mayor McKisson,
of Cleveland, O., last week, should
prove a warning for some of the bolt
ers at Harrisburg who are fixing them
selves for a dose of the same medicine.
McKisson organized a bolt of a few Re
publicans of the Ohio legislature, f jrm
ed a fusion with the Democrats, and,
after Senator Hauna had been made
the regular Republican candidate for
the United States Senate, attempted to
defeat him. McKisson was made a
candidate for re-election as mayor of
Cleveland last week, and the voters
showed their disapproval of hia treach
erous course in the senatorial fight by
beating him by some 3,-jOO, while the
rest of the Republican ticket was elect
ed by good majorities. As a party
wrecker aud bolter he got what he de
served a dose of medicine of his own
mixing.
The new-born fear of the Insurgei.t
Legislators that unless Mr. Q lay with
draws as a candidate, for l.'nited States
Senator there will be no election, and
it will result iu a split in the Republi
can party of the Slate, is very far
fetched. If they are desirous of party
harmony, why net have Mr. Dalztll,
Mr. HutT, Mr. Stewart, Mr. Tubbs, and
the balance of the dozen or more Inde
pendent candidates for whom they
have been voting for ruonth pst, and
w hose combined vote has not reached
half of that given Mr. Quay, with
draw ? Mr. Quay is the regularly com.
i listed candidate of the party, is up
!rted by almost two-thirds of the lie
IHiblican numbers of the joint conven
tion, and is clearlj- entitled to ! t lected.
The hyjoer:tical cant that they fear i!:e
injury that will result to the arty iu
I he event that there is uo election comes
w Uh a bad graoe from the little band of
Uiltcrs who alone are responsible for
the present state of affairs, and will be
held to answer to their constituents if
no election is had.
Th at surplus of a little over f2,000,
V in the Government's revenue in
March is an encouraging exhibit. The
w ar expenditures have caused large def
icits in the past year, but it looks now
a if the turning point has been nearly
reached. Deficits are likely to reap
i ear in u n e f ti e reniaii-irg n cnths
r.f the fi?al your, bat they will cett'acr
be to great dot so constant a they have
lx-n in the past twelve moi.tli. The
increase ia revenue is likely to be main
tained, though the falling off in exjud
iture can not be relied on. Most of the
increase iu revenue comes from the
growth in importations, and (his is due
to au improvement in business ud to
an upward teudeucy iu price of do
mestic products. The immense bal
ance of trade in our favor for the past
year will now diminish, but it can fall
of!" a great deal without doing any ma
t liat daing Both the volume of the
circulation and the amount of money
in the treasury are larger than they
ever were in the past, and there is no
reason to lielieve that the gain in this
rei cl has reached its limit.
Where was Ileprcsetitative Harris,
of Clearfield, when Colonel Irviu wa
voted for for United States Senator?
Mr. Harris was instructed by the lle
publicaus of his county at their pri
marv elections to vote for Colonel Irvin
for Senator. He has repudiated these
instructions and has not at any time
rreteuded to represent the ltepubiicans
of his district, taking his orders wholly
from the machine. We can not recall
another ca in (he politics of this Slate
where a representative has chosen to
disregard the instructions he has re
ceived. Mr. Harris has dishonored
himself and shown that he is not tit to
l trusted.
The ulve item is taken from Satur
day's Philadelphia l'ress, the recogniz
ed Waimmakcr organ of the Siate.
When the 1'ress says "We can not recall
another case ia the politics of this Slate
where a Bepresen'ative has chosen to
disregard the instructions he has receiv
ed," it is evidently suffering from a
lapse c.f memory. It must have forgot
ten that representatives Koontz and
Kendall, of this county, were not only
instructed by a popular vote of their
constituents, but also by a resolution
adopted by a unanimous vote of the
dnveiili'm that declared I hern the
party nominees, to support Senator
J'lay for reelection, aud that they
have been steadfastly disregarding their
instructions. Or does the Press think
it dishonest on the part of a J nay
lt preseiitative to disobey his iuslrue-
J tious, but a praiseworthy act on the
part of an anli uay Ilepresentalive?
Bepeim.ii'ax primaries were held in
three cmiuties Saturday to name dele
ijates to the next State; Convention. In
all three of them the Stalwarts won
positive victories, and added five more
to their string of delegates. The coun
ties that voted Saturday are Lycoming,
Wuangoand I'orest. Lycoming is the
home of ex-Attorney (Ieneral MeCor
mick, and Venango is part of the old
C. W. Stone congressional district, and
ia view of the many declarations from
(lie Wanamaker tiolters at Harrisburg
that popular sentiment is with them,
the fact that the f jur delegates cho.-en
in these two counties are supporters of
Colonel Juay, and that the bolters gave
up the light as a hopeless one, is signifi
cant. Forest has been in line with the
Republican organization, and the State
delegate will act with the friends of
Senator Quay. I u addition to the three
counties that voted Saturday, elections
have been held iu Berks, Blair, Butler,
Delaware, Indiana, Lawrence, Lancas
ter, Montour, Warren and L'nion, aud
in all of these the Stalwarts have elect
ed solid delegations to Ihi State Con
vention. Not one county has lieen car
ried by the bolters, or those in t-ympa-t:iy
with them. When this is consid
ered, the members of the Legislature
w ho have been steadily voting forQuay
can properly feel that they are acting
in accordance with the wishes of the
masses of the Jlt-publican party.
The bill making the minimum school
term seven months has been sigued by
the Governor, and is now a law. When
the common school system wa3 estab
lished, in 1"4, the minimum term was
fixed at f'ur months, in 172 it was in
creased to fi"e months, and in JS7 was
raised to six months. Each enlarge
ment of the term was attended with
opposition in various quarters as an ad
dition to the people's burdens, and the
present increase has met with similar
objections. A very large majority of
the taxpayers of Somerset county were
strongly opposed to the present in
crease, and confidently looked to Rep
resentatives Koontz and Kendall to
prevent the enactment of the measure.
It was eleai ly a case of misplaced (mi-lidt-m-c,
as our lt-pr seiilatives either
lid not have the ability or the desire
to d. so. School directors will now
have to obey the law. It is claimed
that in some school districts iu the
State th directors cut down the school
term iu order to retain money in the
treasury for the next year, and that this
is causing a great deal of feeling among
those parents who are taxed. Under
the new law the directors will have to
declare in their reports the amount of
receipts and expenditures and the
length of the school term. If the term
is less than seven months, and any
money remains iu the treasury, the dis
trict will get from the State just that
much less of the State appropriation,
so there w ill I nothing gained.
NoT'viTHsi andixg the frantic pre
dictions that have daily emanated from
the mugwump press, Quay has not
withdrawn, no break has iccurred in
the solid ranks of his loyal supporters,
aud the bolters aud disorganized have
not made one accession to their ranks.
The situation at Harrisburg is the same
to-day that it was one week ago, and is
likely to remain so to the end of the
session, unless the bolters, realizing
their inability to defeat the candidate
of the Republican voters of the State;,
should, at this late day, give him their
support. The trial of the Quay cases is
likely to consume the bslaaoe of the
week, and should they result iu the ac
quittal of the ex-Seuator, the excuse
that a large number of the bolters have
been giving for voting against him will
1 removed, and his election follow.
The probabilities are that there will be
no change in the situation until after
the conclusion of these oases. During
the past week the bolters have been
concentrating their votes on Huff,
TuM,and Irvin, one after the other.
There was not a quorum present Sa'ur
day or Monday, and the joint ballot
Tuesday resulted: Quay, S5, Jenks "G,
Irvin 5; leaving Quay 17 votes short of
an election. If the resolution adopted
at the beginning of the session is ad
lured to, the Legislature will adjourn
finally Thursday of nest week, and in
the evcni of there ling no election,
Pennsylvania will be represented in
the U.ii'.ed States Senate for the next
two years by but one Senator.
AliBMt Decapitated.
Puii.t.ii-snrHo, Centre Co., Ta., April
. Samuel M. Graham, of the firm of
Graham, Herd Co , wan instantly killed
and almost decapitated by a dynamite ex
plosion here to-day. Graham, iu order to
get a phougraph of the dynamiting of a
stump, stood w ithin one hundred feet of
the expl ive, and was struck by a sliver
of the sin nip. The dead man was well
known in athletic and military circles,
and was a veteran of the Spanish-American
war.
Tt Se-ri I Lilt t.
From ifce oarriitur Tcl-frsph.
It is atnui-idg to watch the uties of tb
new fakirs who now info- Harrisburg
and send out fWe stories to the newspa
pers the represent- The majority of
tbeui have bxaen throwing rand at Senator
Quay ever since ths beginning of the
Senatjrial contest, and they hava ben
trying their titmcx-t to drag biin clown.
Failing in this they have tried all they
kuow how to belittle him, by sending out
fake stories. One day they send out a
story that Quay will uot be here because
1m it afraid to face the anisic and ha dare
not meet the people w ho will be here to
ask him questions. The next day they
spread broaduast the story that Quay is
hurrying to Harrisburg to h!p his wan
ing cansfl, and that hia lisutenanU are
w ild ith toar Us-ause he does not come
quickly. Then, to vary the monotony,
liiey proclaim that Senator Quay does
not know whether be will visit the Stale
Capital or not he has not made np his
luind what he will do, aud be has sum
moned his lieutenants to Washington to
advise him. It is hardly necessary to say
that not one of the stories is true. At the
outset of the senatorial contest Senator
Quay and his friends agreed upon a plan
of action and they have not departed
from the plan one hair's breadth, they
have not veered one particle from the
course agreed upon. Senator Quay
knows that his cause is in good hands
that the men he has faith in are do-'
ingjuH what was mapped out months
Mt, and he is not woirj-ing about the fu
ture action of his friends. lie is not l--ing
any sleep for f?ar he is being betray
ed, although, to judge from the reports
sent out from Harrisburg, brought here,
it is alleged, by people who have been in
Wathintrton, Senator Quay is not only
losing sleep, but he is pale and haggard,
has lost fiesb, and is altogether miserable.
Hut the fake newspaper writers must
have something to write about, and they
can invent any old lie and it will go with
tlie anti-Quay newspapers.

Census Flams ia FenmyWinia Crow on a
Tree ia His Yard.
Washinotos, April 7. For the tak
ing of next year's census Pennsylvania
will le ilividud iutt It district, each to
be iu chargeof a census supervisor, ae
coruing to a plau promulgHled by Direc
tor Merriam to-day. These districts will
couform as nearly as practicable with
the Ixaiudaries of eongreHsioual districts.
Iu Pennsylvania theru wiil le a few in
Htaucesof such conformity, but nt many.
Allegheny county wilt constitute one
census district, the F.igbteentb, Philadel
phia county and Lnzsrne county will
also constitute districts by themselves.
Ti other districts in th western part
o." the state are male np as follows:
K'evtn'.h, Cameron, Clinton, Lycoming,
Potter ani Tioga; Twelfth, Blair, Eed
forJ, Franklin, pulton, Huntingdon,
J.inia'i aud Milllin; Thirteenth, Cam
bria, Cleartiuld and Somerset; Fourteenth,
Clarion, Forest, Elk, JetTtirson, McKean
and Warreu ; Fifteenth, K -is, Crawford
aud Veuaugj; Sixteenth, Armstrong,
Westmoreland and Indiana; Seventeenth,
Fayette, Uroeus and Washington ; Niue
teeuth, Beaver, Butler, Liwrence and
Mareer.
In Peimsvlvania it is prohibit) the ap
pointment of supervisor of censiu will
be dictated mostly by Senator Pjnrose if
the deadlock at Harrisburg results in
leaving Quay's seat vacant. The super
visors are to be nominate d by the Presi
dent and confirmed by th Senate, which
insures that the appointees shall be agree
ab'eto the senators. The duties of the
uiioervjNon will tie to have general charge
of ! lie oik of gathering all statistics in
their representative districts, the division
of thedistricts into sub-divisions, the em
ployment, with thecouentof the director
of the census, of enumerators in such
aub-divisions, one or more in each. The
compensation of supervisors is fixed in
the following manner :
Each supervisor shall receive J lii, and
in additiou thereto in thickly-settled dis
trict ft for each 1,000 or majority fraction
of 1,000 of the population, and in sparsely
settled districts $1.40 for each 1,000 or ma
jority fraction of 1,009, but in the ag
gregate no supervisor shall be paid leas
than $1,000. Tb9 sub-divisions assigned
to enumerators shall not exceed 4,0J iu
population, as nearly as may be esti
mated, and the compensation of enumer
ators shall be ascertained and fixed by
the director of the census in the follow
ing manner
In f4ib-divisions where he shall deem
such allowance sufficient, an allowance
of not les than 2 nor more than 3 cents
for each living inhabitant and for each
death reported ; not less than 15 nor more
than 20 cents for each farm, and not loss
than 20 nor mire than :!) cants for each
establishment of productive industry re
turn1 may be given in lull compensation
for all services. For all othur sub divis
ions per d.eni rates shall be fixed by the
director of the census according to the
difficulty of enumerating, but the com
pensation allowed to any enumerator in
any such districts shall be not less than
$.1 uor more than $0" per day of 10 hours'
actual field worn each.
Protection for Wives.
Major J. W. Nesbit, pension agent for
this district, says the Pittsburg Pest,
is well pleased with the act of Cougrexs of
March 3, approved by Commissioner o
Pensions H. Clay Evans. The new act
making provision for the wives of sol
diers with pei.sion rights is the first abso
late recognition paid wives by -heGov-erumeut
in the history of the pension de
partment. It provides that when pension
ers deseit their wives, who are in indi
gent circumstances, their minor children
jr permanently helpless children, one-
half of their pensions shall be paid their
wives or the legally authorized guardians
of their children.
Prior to this time the Government had
never recognized the dependent wives of
pensioners in any sulstantial manner.
Sectiou 4,7ofl, revised statutes, as amended
by the act of Augusts, 1S:, was the near
est approach to offering protection to de
pendent wives and children. It provided
that in instances where the pensioner was
committed to prison for any overt act, or
adjudged insane by competent medical
examiners and confined in an inxane asy
lum, then a poition of the money of the
pensioner oould be oUained by a legally
appointed guardian of the children or the
wife. As the law now reads, pensioners
who indulge in riotous living and insist
upon neglecting their families, will be
compelled to make provision for their de
pendents to the extentof one-half of their
month'y pensions.
The act of Match 3 also provides that
hen pensioners become inmates of State
soldiers' homes and refuse to contribute
to the support of their families, one-half
of their monthly pensions will be at the
disposal of their dependent families. All
claimants must make applications direct
to the ctirnmiasioner8 office at Washing-
t ton, I). C, and in uo ase will the pension
I agent pay or attempt to adjust the claim
j until anion has leen taken in the case
( and recommendations made by the com-
nmsiouer.

Venango Solid.
Sharon, Pa., April 8. The Venango
comity Republican primaries were held
to-day aud the friends of Colonel Q'iay
bad a walkover in the electiou of dele
gates to the State Convention. General
George A. Wiley, of Franklin, and W. II.
Corrin, of Oil City, who were choson
State delegates, are pronounced support
ers of the Beaver statesmau. The lew
sympathizers of the Flinn bolters at Har
risburg who reside iu this county con
cluded that it would be useless to make a
fight against these candidates, who were
chosen by the supporters of the regular
organization. General Wiley was in Har
risburg reint!y aud assured tho support
ers of Senator Quay that both the dele
gates would be in sympathy with the
State organization.
The anti Quay faction which was instru.
monlnl in the defeat of the Republican
ticket last fall gave up the fight at the
moineut when they reu-igniaed the hope
lessness of their cause. The Quay peo
ple wore disappointed at the action of
the anti-Quay forces in refusing to fight,
after the bold bluff they had put up, as
they desired to show the antl Q iay people
how weak they really are.

Botkix, O.. April a Five desperadoes
took posses.-ion of this town this morning
at 2 o'clock and made a desperate attempt
to rob the Sheets bank. Tney first stole
two horses and a buggy and robbed two
blacksmith shops to secure hammers and
chisels. They then turned off the lights
of the engine room to prevent alarm.
Three of them patrol 11 the street with
revolvers while the other two proceeded
to b'.o v the sare with dynamite.
Philip S ieet's son, living nearby, saw
the whole performance, but was prevent
ed from giving the alarm by one of the
safe robbers. Another cilizen also haw
them, but was not allowed to leave bis
house. Three explosions followed at
short intervals. The front doora and

"I am very grateful to you for your
kindness and the interest you have
taken in me, and truly believe your
medicines and advice are worth more
to a woman than all the doctors in the
world. For years I had female troubles
and did nothing for them. Of course
I tiecame no better and finally broke
down entirely. , My troubles began
wilh inflammation and hemorrhages
from the kidneys, then inflammation,
congestion and falling of the womb,
and inflammation of ovaries.
I underwent local treatment every
day for some time; then after nearly
two months the doctor gave me permis
sion to go back to work. I went back,
but ia less than a week was com
pelled to give up and go to bed. On
breaking down the second time, I de
cided to let doctors and their medicine
aTcne and try your remedies. Before
the first bottle was gone I felt the ef
fects of it. Three bottles of Lydia E.
Piukham's Vegetable Compound and a
package of her Sanative Wash did me
more good than all the doctors' treat
ments and medicine,
