THE FOREST REPUBLICAN. . C. WINK, - KOITOR fSOPBItTOB. WEDNESDAY. DECEMBER 20, 1891. Benjamin B. Tiixman was elected United Slatet Senator from South Carolina on Tuesday of lant week, defeating General Butler, tbe one legged Confederate soldier, who lias been in the Senate since 1877. The Democrats in Chicago's Coun cil are trying to preveut ao investi cation of the city departments. This recalls the attitude of Flower and Gilroy on the Lcxow matter. Evi dently the New York and Chicago Democrats are tbe same breed of cats. Senator Quay presented a vol uminous pelitioo from the citizens of Pennsylvania, urging tbe passage of the pending bill restricting ira migra tion y excluding Anarchists aud other undesirable applicants for ad mission, and establishing a consular inspection abroad. The gold hungry leeches of Eu rope are again pumping tbe yellow metal out of the treasury reserve so greedily that Mr. Carlisle may soon have to Bell another lot of bonds in order to keep the vaults from being totally emptied. The speculative manipulators of the world's gold sup ply never fail to have fun with a man like Mr. Carlisle when they find him at the head of a nation's fiinancial affairs. N. Y. Tribune. O. UUKKESfUnDF.NT OI A - i a Pittsburg .paper says there is no longer anv doubt "that Representatives Siblsy and Kribbs are very much dissatis fied with the treatmeut they have re ceived from Revenue Collector Kearns, of Pittsburg, and incidental- ly from Representative Sipe, who is looked upou as Mr. Kearns' sponsor. This dissatisfaction is about to take a taOcible form in churrren hpincr nro. " d a re ferred against Mr. Kearns. In other words, the Collector's official scalp will soon be dangling in tbe air if the amount of war paint which these . chieftains have of late displayed A pamphlet issued by Secretary TT ... . xiarruy gives tne votes cast tor all candidates at the recent election. It -&t2 first time in the history of the Commonwealth that this has beeu done in so complete a form. A few of tbe figures are worth remembering, the event being unprecedented, in to tals as well as in majorities, with the AXCAntinn nf Prefiidonf 11 rn... TKA vote for Governor Hastings is 574, 801. His opponent, Mr. Singerly, , received 333,404 votes. Twenty-six ' congressmen were elected by Repub licans, tbe aggregate majorities being "51 051 uKiU i r ejected to this office, their combined majority being only 2,145. It is a significant (act that a change of 1,000 votes in tbe Berks district would have elected a Repub lican from that Democratic .strong hold, while a chancre of 10H in the Northampton district would have Toyghabout a similar result there. If this coald have been understood before the election both districts would have been won anr) the Demo crats thus left without a single repre sentative in Pennsylvania. In a very sensible article tbe Philadelphia'- Timet discusses gift news papers, and the constantly increasing demand by individuals, debating so cieties and libraries, more or less im portaut, bpon newspapers for free opies. Tbe Timet sensibly says that it would be much better if those li braries and countless places that have somewhat of a publio character, would pay for newspaper literature. If they did, they would place a value upon a paper, and not toss it about with little thought or care. No newspaper can afford to have a large free list, or in fact any free list at all The newspaper is a legitimate busi ness enterprise. It can not afford to -give away that upon wbicb it de pends fur its exinteoce. No more can it be constantly draining its re Bourses and bowing to tba requests of hundred quarters, than could a merchant be constantly making gifts of bis stock to patrons who apparen tly had some bold upon bis friend ship. If a newspaper is uot worth paying for it is not worth having. In every city tbere are a larce num ber of people, who feel, that because they are of some importance in tbe community, they should have a free copy of the leading newspaper. And it is often the case that this class is the very first to criticise the newspaper itself for being a poor paper, or preventative of the town; when if tbey paid their subscription the pa per would give a much better publi cation. Both House and Senate have dealt so kindly at this session with General Henderson's Shiloh National Park bill as to increase the regret that General Sickles' National Park bill was not advanced sufficiently to profit by this friendly disposition of the national park idea. The Sbilob bill passed the Senate yesterday and now goes to the President. The Getty burg bill has been reported to tbe House, aud in some lull of more urgent business it is hoped it will be taken up and passed and sent to the Senate in time to become a law at this session. The Shiloh bat tlefield is a neg lected and unsightly piece of ground, and an appropriation of $75,000 is made to enable the Secretary of War to buy the land and begin to get it ioto shape fur tbe monuments which it is expected that the several commands of both armies will erect there. It is right aud fitting that these great battlefields of the war should be set apart and preserved id recog nition of the great deeds done there, and to preserve as far as possible the field as it was at the time of tbe con flict, that the battle may be studied where under the conditions it was fought. The passage of the Shiloh and Gettysburg bills by this Congress will be a very considerable item to its credit. General Hastings' Inauguration. Gen. Hastings and family will be the guests of Mrs. Margaret Halde man, widow of the late Congressman Richard Hatdoraao and daughter of the late Simon Cameron, and of Gov. Patlison and family at the executive mansion before the inauguration. On tbe last Saturday before the quadren nial event Gen. Hastings and family will leave Bellefunte for Harrieburg, and on their arrival they will be con veyed to the old Cameron mansion on Frout street, where they will be entertained until Monday. On that day they will dine at the executive mansion as the guests of the Pattisons and lay plans for a four years' so journ in that imposing building. The ioaugusation is expected to be one of the most notable in the history of these events, but tbe military fea ture of it will not equal some of its predecessors. Only three regiments of the National Guard, one battery of artillery and one troop of cavalry will coustilute tbe military part of tbe parade. These organizations will be formed ioto a provisional brigade, the commander of which has not yet been designated. Adjt. Gen. Greenland and Col. Thomas J. Stewart have been in con sultation relative to tbe inaugura tion, but definite action was deferred until the appointment of the inaugu ral committee, to be named at the be ginning of the session of the Legisla ture. The political club display io the parade is expected to be very large and fine. WANTED A responsible and ener getic man to handle lightning rods in Forest county. E. K.
