William McKinley and William
L. Wilson are both winning golden
opinions these days. The only differ
ence being that McKioley's are in
the Uoited States, while Wilson' are
in England.
That's a happy witticism which the
New York Press gets off in relation
to the tight against the Tammany ti
ger: "When women join Dr. Park
hurst the question for every chival-
sua voter shall be : 'The Lady or the
Tiger f "-Ex.
Cleveland is going into Wilson's
district in West Virginia ostensibly
to hunt deer, but really to hunt votes
for Wilson. The situatiou in that
district must bo very desperate when
the President of the United States is
summoned to the rescue. Wilson
will be caught in the avalanche in
.November, and Cleveland cannot
save Lira.
4,000,000 feet of Canadian lumber,
the first consignment to come in free
under the new tariff act, is being un
loaded at my Uity, jUicnigan. lbe
price at which it is being sold is less
than that paid lor American lumber,
aud as a natural consequence the
wages of American lumberman will
have to come down. Every Repub
Iicau orator in the lumber states,
which voted for Cleveland and free
trade, predicted this result, but they
were not believed. The prediction is
being fulfilled.
It would not be surprising if Judge
Denuy, the Republican candidate for
Congress in the Ashland, Kentucky,
district, were elected. The Breckin
ridge people are very sore on Owens,
the Democratic candidate, and are
after revenge, and Judge Denny is
not pouring oil on their wounds by
any means. On the contrary, be is
putting pepper on the sores and rub'
bing it in. The only questionable
feature of Denny's speeches is bis
tributes to Breckinridge. If he can
not get votes except by prauing up
the boary-neaded old scamp, be bad
better get off the stump and decide
to remain at home. Breckiuridge is
a mighty poor lever to help elevate
anybody to office.
1UE little town elections held in
Connecticut last week resulted in the
same way that every election beld in
the North this year has. The Repub
lican gains were enormous, old Dem
ocratic strongholds going Republican
and Republican strongholds giving
majorities that have not been equaled
since the war. It is simply redicu-
lous to try and claim tbal tbese re
sults were due to local causes, assoaie
Democratic organs are doing. They
are demonstrations that tbe same
causes are at work in Connecticut as
everywhere else causes that are
bringing such overwhelming defeats
to the Democratic party that Ameri
can political history will be searched
in vaiu for their parallel. I'hila.
Presi.
Iiie Oeorgia election returns are
studied with dismay at the beadquar
tors of the Democracy at Washiug
ton. A Iobs of from 40,000 to 45,000
ot plurality from the previous elec
tion can only mean deep dissatisfac
tion on tbe part of numerous voters
with the Congressional conduct of
tbe parly to which they naturally be
mil .
long. trie cnange in tut, vote is
quite as large as that shown in th
urow election in this btate lust win
ter, but it is far more significant.
Tbe people of Georgia evidently have
no taste for the assault on tbe indus
trial system of the United States, in
which their commonwealth has so aus
piciously commenced to assume an
important rule. Georgia has fine re
sources, above and below the surface
of her area, aud less than 2,000,000
of inhabitants. If she were develop
ed as Pennsylvania is, she would har
bof at least four limes as many peo
ple, and land values would range cor
respondingly. This is what the in
telligent people of Georgia feel, and
their vote is a reproof, and more than
a reproof, a condemnation of the leg
islation imposed upon them by Con
gress a fow months ago. ISttsbnrg

Ex-d'overnor Curtin Dead.
Ex-Governor Andrew G. Curtin,
Pennsylvania's great war Governor,
died at his home at Bellefonte, at 6
o'clock last Sabbath morning, of old
age, combined with nervous trouble.
Mr. Curtin had been iu feeble health
for some weeks, but his condition had
been serious only since last Thursday.
lie was in the 80lh year of his age.
Iu 18G0 Mr. Curtin was the Repub
lican candidate for Governor. Tbe
Democrats, though divided io Nation
al politics, were united in Pennsylva
nia, but Mr. Curtin was elected by a
majority of 32,000. He responded
promptly to tbe first call for troops,
and when General Patterson, who
was in command in Pennsylvania,
asked for 25,000 more troops, thay
were immediately furnished.
General Patterson s requisition was
afterward revoked by the secretary of
war on the ground that the troops
were not needed, but Governor Cur
tin, instead of disbanding there, ob
tained authority from the legislature
to equip them at the btate a expense
and hold them subject to the call of
tbe national government. This body
of men became known as the "Penn
sylvania Reserves" and was accepted
ny ine autnonties at wastiineton a
few weeks later.
Governor Curtin wis untiring in his
efforts for the comfort of the soldiers,
answering carelully the numerous
letters seul him from the field, and
originated the system of rare and in
structions for the children nf those
slain in tbe battle, making them the
wards of the btate. lie thus became
known in the ranks as tbe "soldiers'
friend."
lie was re-elected uovernor iu
1863. Afterward he was sent by
President Grant as Minister to Russia,
and was three times elected to Con
gress from his district, having been
supported by tbe Democrats, with
which party be had affiliated since the
Greeley campaign. The funeral will
be held to-day, and will be conducted
with military honors.
Wool Men Disheartened.
The New York IVorld is employ
iog all of its lying arts to show that
tbe price of domestic wool has in
creased and that of foreign has de
creased. In a late issue it gleefully
shouted that "price of foreign wools
bas declined about forty per cent..
while the prices of domestic wools
have advanced about ten per cent
during the last two months," and then
it taunts tbe wool growers, who are
heavy loosers, at follows:
"ine result idus lar is in exact ac
cord with tbe Deroocratio claim and
directly contrary to tho predictions
ot tbe Wool urowers National Asso
ciation. lbe Ohio prophets met
again a few days ago and passed some
direful resolutions, which, as they are
based upon theories and are contrary
to tbe facts now demonstrated, will
bave no weight with the voters this
fall. After haviug deceived him so
often, protectionists ought to be
ashamed to look an honest sheep in
tne lace.
Let us see whether the resolution
referred to as direful were based upon
theories. It stands to reason tba
when a native wool grower cannot
compete with tbe foreign grower, the
latter's product being sold in tb
country at a less price than tbe na
tive grower can sell and make a pro-
fit, the native grower is go'mg to quit
the business, sell bis sheep aud turn
bis attention to something else.
Well, that is just what tho Western
farmers are doing. Here is an ex
tract from the Cincinnati Tribune
that proves very plainly that tbe
Ohio men are confronted by a con
dition and not a theory, and that
they have met it io the only way left
for them :
"Within one year after the incom
ing of the Cleveland administration,
the number of sheep in Licking coun
ty bas been reduced more than 10,000.
Now the farmers are telhug their
wool-bearers as fast as they can get
rid of them aud at whatever price
they will bring. Tbe finest meriuoes
are selling at 65 cents to II a bead.
One can buy for a dollar apiece more
nne sbeep tban be can drive away
Just tbe other day there was a sale
of sheep on a farm near Pataskala.
The stuck was auctioned off in lots
of a dozen eacb. Tbe bidding start
ed with an offer of six cents a dozen
It ended at $4 50 a dozen, and tbe
sheep sold at that."
Just think nf it! Fine merino
sheep at one dollar a head and ordi
nary sheep at $4.50 a dozen. What
for? To grow wool? No, for mutton.
Wool growing under a fiee trade,
free wool, Cleveland administration
does not pay. It cannot pay, and tbe
only thing left for the grower is to go
out of the business and sell bis sheep
for mutton. Tbe shambles succeed
the shears. Harritburg Telegraph.
