The Wolfe is at large in our
midst, and. strange to -say there is
not much fear of his harming any
body. To Democrats really seem
to lie making a pet of him, but they
want the Republicans to do all the
euibracing, while they use him to
pull their Orange out of the fire.
The friends of General Grant Ite.
taken pains to have it. announced that
the -third-term heresy is dead and
buried; inasmuch as the General has
encphatiealty gutted that he will never
again be a candidate for the Pmsideney.
This announcement wines a little late
to be ()Unwell advantage or credit to
him and his friends. The third-term
heresy received its death blow at
Chicago, when it wt.ut down with the
famous "30r and the . people buried
it•forever out of sight in the grave 'of
President Garileld. By his memory
they resolved that no such disturbing;
Clement should ever again menace the
peace and prosperity of the country:
What the people want to know
now is - whether the elements of
:that heresy arc to be revamped and
infused into the Arthur administratiOn
in the shape of "Stalwartisni" as its

Conkling, Cameron, .%:e. They are:

WOLFE'S CONCLUSIONS IN
. CONFLICT WITH HIS
We listenA carefully to the speech
of-Ifon. Charles 8. W.,lfe, Independ
ent Candidate for State _Treasurer,
at the Court House on Friday eve
uitg last. We admit unhei•itating-
Iy, that the statements he made are
in the main true. In fact there are
many other: things of a reprehen
sible character that might be said
of the machine leaders in Pennsylva
nia, that he did •not have time to
say.
The only question for the voter to
decide for himself is whether under
the circumstances, it is his duty to
abandon the nominee of- his party
and,. support Mr: Wolfe. This we
lea Vet?:et?: the voter to decide. He
will act as a lree'L..man , whether we
r
give o withhold our advice. • We
have laliored earnestly and faithfully
for years to educate the people - in
oppasition to machine .rnlership in
the Republican party. But we have
done this with the single purpose of
accomplishing: its overthrow with
out destroying the organilation, and
rendering it powerless for the ac 7
conipihdithent of good under proper
leadership. We had hoped soon to
witness the retirement of the Cam
eron dynasty and its henchmen to
the rear and the establishment of
the better elements - of l the party in
full and complete control, as in
New York, where the independent
elements oLthe party in' their last
State Coueiation, through the voice
of the People • asserted in the pri- -
maty election of delegates, had en-.
tire possession of the Convention,
and the wisdom of their action, so
just and wise in comparison with
stalwartiern, isnpproved by all right
thinking people. Such a result we
deSire to see achieved in Pennsyl
vania. The: signs of the times were
auspicious of such a result . in the
near future had not Mr. Wolfe led a
revolt outside of the patty organi
zation. While we admit.. his fads,
we fail to see the consistency of his
logic. . We note - first that the- mal
administration of the Treasury' com
plained of !was i under• Col. A: C.
Noyes, the only Democrat who has
administered that office for many
years. - He has nothing derogatory
-to say of Republican - administartion
of the Treasury except in the Matter
of, the deposits. If then peculation
occurred under a Democratic Treas
urer, his logic is at fault in urging
men to vote for. him es a rebuke of
the bosses, While he admits that be
does not expect to be elected, and
knows that his candidacy can only
result in placing the Treasury again
in the hands, of the Democrats.
This by the logic-of hiS own reason
ing would be it dangerous experi
ment. Could we by our vote elect.
Mr. Wolfe; we would cheerfully cast
it for him, for. the reason that it is
extremely dista - steful to us in view of
the arrogant and boastful, spirit ex
hibited by the machine. men in our
late convention in ft:resting upon
the party one of the 306 .stalwarts
who voted at Chicago for Grant, to
cast our vote for General Bally.
But in voting" or Wolfe, While he can
not, be elected, is to negative the
reform 'sought to be' accomplished.
.His conclusion is again in --conflict
with his factri when he cites - the
history, of the achieVements of, the
'lndependent Republicans of t the
State of New I'm k as a precedent
for supporting him. It is only
necessary to point to the fact that
their success was achieved by regular
action '
within the Party, and. not :out,
side of it, as Mr. Wolfe proposes. to
reform the politics of Peunsylvania.
Again, his 'conclusion is in conflict
with lily facts when he presents the
record of the Independents in Penn
sylvania, as a reason for supporting
him. In the first election of S. D.
Camerouois U. S. Senator, one Re
publican Member of the - House,only,
refused to vote for him. In his
second election the number : was
increased to five wive refused 'to be
bound by the; caucus, and in the
contest of lasi: winter fifty-xis refuSed
to vote for Over the caucus nom
inee. In the last State Convention
Davies, who tepresented the Inde.
pendents, but who in his folly, relied
upon the promise of Cameron that
ho would not oppose :him • until it
was too -late to • organize a . fight
I l agaiest the boss gang, scored HI
votes against them,. This action of
the Independents, was not outside
of legitimate. party organization,
Their appeal in the- senatorial con
tests was from the caucus to the
legislative joint
. ceuvention,° and in
no event wag it , contemplated to
I Hermit the election of a Democrat to
the Senate. Tue ratio of Independ
ent gain, as stated -by Mr., Wolfe,
would soon
,result in retiring 'the
inachine forces to the rear by legiti
mate party methods and in bringing
about the reforms for which he
pleads,. while by voting . - fur him the
result, can only be to elect Mr. 'Noble,
the Democratic candidate and Put.'
farther off the end ;Sought to be
gained by the true] representative
Independent Republicans of. the
State.

We thuspresent the inconsisten
cies of Mr. Wolfe's position - and
leave it for the voters of Bradford
to form their own conclusion's as to
their dutyin the premises.

Newark, N. J. closed iba doors on

falshoods of 1880, Wwould. not have

the only alterative which promised any
chance of r,reeess—abolute liience.
They determined not to stir up- the
depublican vote, but to run. the risk
of getteting Out their vote' fluietly,
without drawing out oars. They nn-
d'erstood the sens:tive Poid Rion. of the'

for opposing the election , of
-Mr.
and theUintroduced 1111. Wolfe-to the
audience.. We can : outline =only the
. .proMinent pointS of the speakers urgit
meat. • By way of illustrating his ex
perience in public life, he related one
of George Francis Trains wittieesms,
in which George found the pracpees
and personal habits of public men in
conflict with, the teachings of his goOd
old mother, and • said that had been his'
experience. •He then stated the real
sons that actuated him in . becoming',
candidate for Sfate Treasurer in oppel
sitioh to General . BailY, the nominee,Of
the Republican bosses. .He held tip
to' public ,contempt, Cameron, Hoyt,
MeManes, .Magee &e. fie
nOunced the " Pardon Board infamy,,"
and charges that the nbmin'ation of
General Bally was set •up by these
boss4S as 4 - reward for his voting with'
the ;106 Grant Stalvarts at Chicago,
and : was against tne win or a majority
of the Republicans of the State -Mho
were for Hon. .W! T. Davies.
Davies had a clear field .up to within
three weeks of the' Convention s when
the bosees•sought out :Bailey and the
order went forth from Cameron that:
'Davies mtist be defeated in cense
-quence'of his independent action as a
Senator in the erection of ti.- S. Sen
ator last winter. He charged that
Quay s Hoyt and Walters had speculat
ed on the funds of, the Treasury under,
Col. Noyes,_ that this , was denied by
Hoyt, bq he wad responsible. for what
he said and if Hoyt chose prosecute
him, he would be in court to prove it
when the trial came. He referred to
the fact that' State Treasurer Noyes,
during! the time that-'these . men were .
alleged to be using the public., money,
failed to ,`publish . irtOnthly statements
as required by law,.sthbwing the condi
tion oflhe Treasurys' 'and where the
!
States' funds were dQposited. He, also
I.chiirged-that the Stat i c Treasurers. ex
-ereised favoritism toward Kimble, 'Ma
gee, Canteron tS,:e, in the deposit of the
publie money by placing it in banks in
which they'.Were interested instead of
in'the 'designated depositories . 'of the
State. , fle recited the history of what
' he termed the independent Repoblkan
revolt in Pennsylvania, and stated that
in J. D. Cameron's first election one
Member of the Legisiature—Mapes,
refused to vote for him. In his second
election five refused him their votes,_
:and in; the Senatorial Contest of-; last
winter . to; refused to be bound by the
caucus: He omitted to state in this
connection that In the last State C.on
vention.,B.l arrayed themselves against
the bosses, and voted for Davies.
The . foregoing ;abstract presents a
brief view of his premises in stating
I,Vhich with great elaboration' he occu
pied one hour and. a half. He, then
proceeded 'to drain; his conclusions,
which are easily summed up in t o few
nsentances.viz: that in order io' over
throw the corrupt leadershiP of the Re
'publican party:the'people should sup
port him, a 'Garfield Reptibltcan,' who
.represented all the substant+l reform
principles of the independent !nen of the
State. Reform within the party he said
was impossible.. Ire argued that the
independents of. the State of 'New York
had overthrown and retired to the rear
Roscoe Conkling, in comparason with
whom Cameron was' but a - piamy, and
the Republicans of . Pennsylvania
could retire their bosses if they . , would
act independently. - '
He closed with an appeal to both
Republicans and Democrats to support
him fOr the :reasons he bad stated.
Mr. Buffington then offered resolutions.
indorsing Mr. Nyolfe, which were . de
clared adopted.
After music
_by . the band 'Mr. Lan
don begged the audience to be seated
for a few moments while he, explained
his action in the State Convedtion in
pre)' nting Mr. Davies name as a .can
didiate,. and. the protest he there made
agii , inst the bosses. M r .. Wolfe bad
characterize&his protest as weak and
•
falling far short, of the demmids of the I,
occasion. Mr. Landon_ explained the .
embarrassment wider which he - labor
ed, and dOing so paid his re
spects to Chairman Quay and the lieu
tenants of Cameron who reeking with
the fames Of bad whisky ruled the
Con ve.ntion. He depicted the bloattd
and •debaulhed appeartince . of Quay in
glowing terms, and charged that it
wes the action of Colliding, Cameron,
Logan, Platt, Quay and other stalwarts
that inspired Guiteau to take thelife ;of
President Garfield lie closed by say
ing that he should so vote - as'to rebuke
stalwartism, and therefore should not
vote for Baily. At the close of his
remarks the meeting adjourned.

"Keystone State" as the standard-bear

the high compliment thus bestowed uP-
on me. Coming, ns it does, tinexpeet

the wishes of the Prohibition party.
and shold I be elected to the responsible

with care and fidelity, the trust be.
stowed upon ure—ever trtistiug in the
truth . of inspiration, "Rightousness
altheth a tuition, while sin is a reproach:.
to any people." I heartily indorse tlar"
resolutions adopted by the Prohibition
Convention 'at its last meeting. The
principles: therein set forth are pare,
elevating. and in accordance With truth
and right,. acknowledging the higher,
powers and urging that civil laws be
brought in harmony therewith. '
-As our republican form of govern
ment derives its,: power from the gov
erned, as intelligence, virtue and in
dustry are bulwarks of this noble struct
ure,' we maintain that the principles .of
the Prohibition • party are the only safe
guard for the prosperity and perpetn
uitY of this nation. Witnessing - the
rapid increase' of the drink habit, know
ing that it antagonizes all those' prin
ciples, debanchiug our yiniug men,•
corrupting the morals of society, des
olating homes, fast filling our jails
and penitentiaries with those that
were once the floter' of our .l land, we
iuvite and urge, you, fellowcitizens, to
cast your ballot with us-the only party
that id trying- to drive this evil froin
our laud. •
I •
Close. the dram-shops,, you estop
the wasted) resources . of this nation;
With this accomplished, soon every man '
with his family 'Would rest under the .
shadow of his own vine; then would the.,
source of crime 'be removed, and this,
nation would soon become-impregnable
against all invading foes. With a sober,
virtuous, and indhstriong people;
diversities of opinion about whether we

whether we-enlarge our WarehouseS and
hive an iron tender, would cease. A
man would not be jealous because his
neighbor bad a little more wealth than
hiMself, for all would have according to
his ability to acquire and retain.. •
I trust that .every Christian proposes
to vote this fall as he prays, then will we
number a mighty host. The ballot is
the key that locks and unlocks. Let
that be the cry to whiob we rally„trust

fraud in his nomination.; Is helinneit?
is he capable? Is he worthy? _ All these

Another Crank Visits. the White
WASUINGTOti, Oct. 31.—A well dress
ed, powerfully loilt man, giving his
name as : John Waling, appeared at the
White House this- afternoon and de
manded to see the "accounts of the
President."' Mr. , Dinsmore, the door
keeper, recognized the visitor aa a
"crank," who had called in May and
was sent to friends in Pennsylvania.
With :I view of delivering him into cus
tody, Mr. DinemOre suggested that the
"accounts" could be seen down street,
and he would accompany him. The
man then presented a letter, which be
insisted gave Lim the right 'to enter the
the mansion, and, endeavored to force
his way in. Mr. Dinsmore seized him.
A desperate struggle ensued. Waling
attempted to draw a revolver, but Mr.
Dinsmore, whu had grasped him by the
throat, choked so vigorously that .he
was unable to use it. Steward Crump
and another employce of the househur
ried to Dinsmore's! assistance. The
lunatic was, with some difficulty, over
po-tiero and the revolver taken away.
It waif a large Sizcd sven-barreled
shooter, with all !the barrels loaded.
The police were notified, and Waling,
or Doctor Noetling, • was lOiketi up.
The letter ho presented re:Ad as tollows:
"John Waling: You are hereby
formed that Doctor John lioetling is
lawfully elected President of the United
Steno, and occupies the. White House

DiTERESTLVO * SPECTACLE IS TILE BEADENO
ISON:WORKS—A TWESTT-TON. WEAPON
IMAIONED TO. TEST ON A LABOE SCALE
THE ACCELERATMO PTITSCIPLE.
.Fifty-six thousand pounds of .inolten
iron were ready at the Reading Iron
Works, Reading, Pa., yesterday for the
casting of the Lyman-Huskell acceler
ating, cr multi-charge, gun, and an in
teresting company gathered to see the
casting. The guo, its inventors claim,
is to effect a radical change in modern
gunnery. The theory of the inventors
it that they can give increased velocity
to a ball, with less danger of bursting a
-gun, than 14 heretofore been deemed
possible. Their plan is to first over
come, the inertia of the projectile by a
moderate charge of coarse grain powder
burning slowly. As soon al the first
force of this is expended another charge
is exploded immediately behind the
projectile: This discharge is followed
by two other discharges in succession,
so that constant force is added as .the
projectile _passes through
_the gun,
while T fio one discharge of powder is as
'great es, is now used for a similar pro
jectile. .
ExPer l inients have been made for
years in
. - 'perfecting this gun for range,
for penetration, and Velocity. One' test
was made at the Washingtian.navy yard
betweeu a 5 -inch bore Whitworth Eng
lish gun and a 2i-inch bore multi -charge
gun tired at the same target, which con
sisted of w rought ifon, plates five inches
thick, backed by,ei g hteen' inches of
solid oak timber, ati 200 yards diatance.l
The English gun fired three 80 pound
shot, not one of: wnieh penetrated the
the target. The multi -charge gun fired
two shots, oue
. of which went clean
through the traget and about 100 yards
beyond.. The English gun used shout
fourteen pounds of powder and did net
penetrate one diameter of its bore. The
penetration of. the American gun was
half as much again Oa that of the largela
Armstrong gun. (len. Newton - calcu
lated that ten and 'twelve inch multi
chiirge guns will penetrate more iron
than .the sixteen and -seventeen inch
single charge guns, and it was determ
ined to build a gun of six-inch bore to
test the invention on a large scale. The
56,000 pounds of molten] iron in the
Reading Works was for the casting of
, the breech end.

terduy, and the iron waS in two big'
furnaces, one containing 31,085 and the
other 34,015 pounds. Col. J. B. Has
kell had invited a number of officers of
the army, iron meo, newspaper, men,
and personal friends to witness th'e cast
ing. Among thcpe present were Con
gri-ssrnan-elect Daniel Ermentruot, 'H..
G. H. Farr, F. C. Smirk, B. H. West,
of the Beading Iron Works, and many
of the 3,ooo.workmen employed in the.
various branches of the'works. The
immense mold of the cannon stood in a.
pit twenty-one, feet deep. A huge iron
kettle'Swung by a crane ready to receive
the contents of one of the furnaces. A
gutter led from the mouth.of the other
furnace to the mold pit. At 2:25 p. m.,

lifted the - molten iron over to a conven
ieutlilace for pouring i i t into the mold.'
While tMe mass was cooling to a proper

"We now propose to cast the breech

BY RITIN LL. D. PUBLISHED BY
702iES BBOTLIEES @ CO., CINCINIS:ATI,CIIICAOO,
• PHILADELPHIA, KANSAS CITY;
The life, public services and tragic death of
Garfield tarnish a record of mare interest than
any chapter of corresponding length In Amer
ican history. Under treatment of a masterly
pen, it expands to a narrative in :which the
career of the student, the scholar, the philos
opber, the soldier, the statesman and the ex- 1
eentive, form a panerama. of the most in
strne:ive word-pictures known to our litera
ture—a,
narrative that will command the 'study
and admiration of the world for evermore.
The author of the work hereby announced
isone of the most eminent of living historians; .
a ripe scholar, a thorough investigator, and
charming writer. His histories are known
and prized wherever English is the prevailing
tongue. He approaches this biography with
a inure eloquent pen titan any heretofore used
by him, because, the 'subject is an inspiration
to eloqtrence, to truth, to reverence, to all
that is admirable in tomanity. A nobler
theme for the mole 6 vrriier cannot be found
' It is indeed fortunate for the community
that an author si weil endowed: with every
qualification for thkr work has engaged in its
preparation. , His name is a guarantee of
fattlifel performance. , 114 Gartield is that
which, occupies the inmost sanctuary of the
American heart . and appeals to its tenderest
symMithies; that teaches the bravest lessons
to our youth gaud the noblest to oar manhood;
that irradiates from .our national glory a
brighter halo than ever illmnes the memories
of kings and potentates, or makes illustrious
the compere' a of. States: Bit narrative is the
electric chain whieG transmits the wondrous
story of endurance, triumph over obstacles,
and Shat achikivement, that wilt live in the
annals of the *old as long as virtue is revers
ed and true nobility honored.
There are other worlisishich pretend to re
count the 'taupe history: Most of tbem aro
