Wbittekin aa a candidate for County Surveyor, snbjwt to Republican uaaoea. The fair; story comet from Phila delphia tbtt Randall favors Wallace for Governor, in order to get him oat of the wit. This U heart-rending, if true. News cornea from Washington that there ia great apathy among the Dem ocrats regarding the formation of their Ceagreseional campaign committee. A good many of them see the hand writing on the wall. Siffcs the dayt of Solomon proba bly no magistrate hae had eo difficult a point an bad Judge White, of Pitta burgh, before whom came two women who disputed for the ownership of s baby, each claiming to be ill mother. The judge did not resort to Solomon's expedient to test the matter, bat care fully sifted the ezideoce and sit last zed opon the one whom he consid ered the mother. The case was a pe culiar one and bard to decide, as there were witnesses on each side who claim ed to have been present at the birth. Inasmuch as the one judicially decid ed to be the mother ia proven the bet ter woman of the two the judge has probably made, at least, a wise choice. B'ixtard. A MAX named Catcher, living at North Granville, New York, deter mined to be ia seasonwuh his candi date for the Presidency, has nemiaat d Hon. Levi P. Morton for that po sition, and Las written to Mr. Morton to acquaint him with the fact that be (Dutcher) is "for 1m," together with thirty-three other Republicans in a club of fi Ay-five members. Mr. Mor ton has replied to his admirer, saying that while he ia not in favor of the nomination of the bitter's candidate, be appreciates the friendly feeling toward him entertained by the club mentioned. Mr. Morton is to be con gratulated. Happy is the man who does not permit the Presidential bee to get into bis bonnet. Thb House has at Last voted finally a the report of the Hard-Romeis eontest committee. The vote was first taken on the resolution of the minori ty, that Bomeis is not entitled to bis seat, which was defeated by yeas 105 nayt 163. Then the majority resolu tion, that Eomsis is entitled to his seat, was agreed to without a division. It mars the beauty of this action in the House, that it is openly charged by Hurd's friends that he was thrown ut not because he was not elected, but because he was too prooouneed a free trader. It seems to be beyond the power of the Democrats to con ceive the possibility of a Democratic Congress deciding each a contest on its merits. It U an to peach meat of ef the honesty of the Democratic ma jority that they ought to feel very restive under. But we do not believe the country will hold them guilty. It would have been much better for Mr. Hard's reputation and his future, bad be prevented bis friends from starting each a scandal. At last there is te be a wedding in the White House. A special fraa Buffalo confirms the stories concern . ing the engagement of President Cleveland to Miss Fraukie Folsom. The Folsoma are at present in Genoa, Italy, and expect to return early in May. A lady in Buffalo recently re ceived a letter from Miss Folsom Hat ing that she is to be married to Mr. Cleveland quietly at the White House in Jane. The bride-elect is a bright, pretty girl, aod recently graduated from the Wells Female College, of New York. Whilst willing to drop politics aod bestow the richness cf our bit aiing upon this pair, we canaot but feel that the groom has in this mattes conspicuously ignored bis great prin ciple of ciril service reform. In se lecting a wjfe, he should have held a J. E. WESK, competitive examination and pro moted the girl who scored the highest average. It is an instance of outrage ous favoritism to advance Miss Frank ie over the beads of so many able and experienced matrimonial aspirants. Franklin Xewt. THE STATE CONVENTION. The Republican State Committee met in Philadelphia on Wednesday last and called the State Convention at Harrisburg on the 30th of Jane. There was considerable difference cf opinion on the question of time. Some of the members preferred a date as early as the'middle of June. Others opposed a long campaign and urged that the Convention be held the last of August. The conflicting views harmonized in the date which was fioally selected. The reports of the members of the Committee opon the state ef the party in the various coaotiee were of the most gratifying and inspiring charac ter. Tbey uniformly represented that the Republican,organization aod the Republican masses are united, har monious and full of courage. The differences of four years ago are oblit erated, and the same spirit displayed in thejplendid majority of 1884, and again in 1835, now animates the Re publican ranks. The Democracy are weakened by their strife and discord over the dispensation of patronage, and by their disappointment and cha grin at the mistakes; and failures of their own Administration. But there are no influences to divide the Re publicans, and tbey will enter upon the campaign with the prestige of suc cess and.the strength of onion. Fortunately there are no questions to be thruit into the Convention or the canvass which can disturb this good feeling. The sentiment of the party is so clearly defined upon the main issue that there is no danger of going astray. The nomination of Gen eral Beaver for Governor is already determined by the common voice, aa der circumstances which will leave so dissent, and it only remains to com plete the ticket with wisdom and to plant it on strong and progressive Re publican ground. The general coarse of the campaign is clear, and Repub licans should not permit any second ary question to come in prematurely to distract them. WASHINGTON LETTER. j From oar regular Correspondent.) WASHiaoToar, D. O, April 17, '86. In the Senate yesterdsy Mr. Logan took the floor in support of the move ment for open executive sessions. He preferred his own resolution, he said, because it provided broadly for open sessions on all matters of nomination and confirmation. Without going in to the hiitory of secret sessions, Mr. Logan would simply premise by say ing that there was not now, and never was any necessity tor secret sessions of the Senate. He read from Story's Commentaries on the Constitution a strong disapproval of secrecy as to public buaineas and a statement that it was not in accord with the spirit of the Constitution. Mr. Logan could not understand what there was about the character of any man nominated for public office that should require his case to be considered in secret. The secrecy that might have been nec essary in the eatly years of the repub lic foand no basis in necessity nor pro priety now. The House of Represen tatives had first opened its proceedings to the public because it represented the people directly. The Senate had stood oot longer on the theory that it more proper1 represented the states. Senators, however, were responsible to the people, too, and should 1st the peo ple know what tbey were doing. The proposed admission of Dakota into the union was considered by the House committee oa territories Wednesday, without conclusion. The Harrison bill, which has already pass ed the Senate, to divide the territory on the 46th parallel; the Springer bill to divide the territory north and sooth oa the line ef the Missouri river, and various other propositions, all found adherents to press their favorable re port. During the discussion some of the republican members said they re gretted to had a disposition of the committee not to admit Dakota as a state for political reasons. The demo crau took exception to this and a somewhat animated discussion took place. The naval affairs committee of the House will aik that the 20th t-f April and such time thereafter as may be necessary, until the 1st of May, be set aside for the consideration of bills from that committee. The committee will call up first the bill to reconstruct the navy. This includes an appropria tion fur the armament of the vessels. This work will undoubtedly be done In Washington Navy Yard, where the ordnance works will be perfected, the committee and the naval officials be ing agreed that this yard is best suited to ordusnce work. The next bill call ed np will be that for the reorganize tion of the Navy department. Then will be called np the naval appropria tion bill. L. List of Patents.
