Republican County Ticket
Per JifrlCwalulour.
WILLIAM R. PATTERSON.
yi'AV and Cameron bad a conference at
Cameron's country place in Lancaster Co.,
last Sunday, and report has it that they
settled upon Gregg and Price as the next
State ticket. Quay told Senator Mylin of
Lancaster that it looked as though this
would not be a good year for Republicans,
and that is a fact —made so by bad Repub
licans—and the only way to improve the
party prospects in this State is for the
coming State Convention to upset
the rotten management of the party
in the State, and also to nominate a ticket
that will oommand tho respect of the
party. One at least, of the eleven Repub
lican members of the last House of Repre
sentatives, who asserted their manhood
from the beginning of the session, and re
fused to vote for the traitor Cameron for
the highest offioe on the gift of the party,
should be placed on the state ticket this
year.
Mr. Quay's Resignation.
Mr. Quay tested Republican opinion on
the question of bis resignation of the Na
tional Committee chairmanship, and the
response was not a character to dissuade
his apparently only hall-formed
intention to give up that office. He re
signed yesterday, with Treasurer Dudley,
and the Executive Committee accepted
both resignations. Whether that body
had the power it exercised is ot little con
seqnence. If it needs confirmation the full
National Committee may be relied on to
give the Executive Committee's action its
prompt approval.
It is neccessary that the executive head
of a party should be a source of strength to
it and not of weakness, and it is the recog
nition of this fact that made Mr. Quay res
ignation neccessary and a matter of course.
Jnstwhen that resignation should take
placo was the simgle point in doubt, and
Mr. Quay has acted wisely in giving it
effect at once so that no pretense can be
made that he is an issue in this year's cam
paign. His insistence op thrusting the
question of his vindication in last year's
campaign in the State did him no good
and was most unfortunate for the party.
He was not vindicated. The vote of con
fidenoe was not carried, and, having raised
the issue, he had no choice but to abide by
the result. His resignation from the Com
mittee, though not generally expected, is
a logical and natural step after his sur
render of the chairmanship.
Mr. Quay has done good service to the
party. His executive energy, capacity,
and skill are as undoubted as his success.
Tho fact that he has no longer the esteem
and confidence of a large body of Republi
cans, and that his continuation at the
head of the organization threatened to
cause the withdrawal of a very consider
able vote, are facte tiat must be aocepted
on evidence and make his voluntary resig
nation a wise and timely act.—Philadel
phia Pregs.
' TUB Presidential campaign is a long
ways off, and when th 6 time for it comes
we do not think that James G. Blaine will
allow a set of scamps who have always
heretofore cheated him out of his just dues
from this state in the National Conventions,
to use him to bring about the defeat of as
good a President as Benj. Harrison has
been,for a second term. It is not probable
that they love Blaine any better now than
heretofore, bnt taey hate Harrison. He is
too honest a man for them.
Senator Quay'a Dream.
When Senator Quay was questioned, dur
ing his recent visit to this city, about bis
choice for the Presidency in 1892, he an
swered—"The only thing I can say is that,
when I was last in Washington, I had a
dream that Blaine was ooming."
Senator Qnay has never been accused as
a political dreamer and least of all as one
snbject to Senator Ingalls' "iridescent
dreams, "but when he wants to drop a hint,
or toss a nod or tip a wink to his followers,
he knows that he can do it quite as well
with dreamland as his base as in any other
way; and that is about why he has had the
dream of Blaine's coming.—Philadelphia
Times.

A Statement from the Commissioners.
EDITOR or THE CITIZKX— It has alway<
been the custom of this office lo pass by any
unfriendly criticisms made iu relation to
the business of the office, but there have
been so many misrepresentations in regard
to the business of the County Commissioners
lately that we deem it our duty to the tax
payers of the County to say that they are
verv far from the truth. It ha.-. recently
been published in some of the papers of
the county that there were $12,000 of bonds
of the County coming due in Sept. next,
whereas there is only $'2,000. It has also
been published that the ironwork of the new
bridge in Butler is to cost $7,000. whilst it
only oosts a fraction over $">,000, part of
which is already paid.
These publications, together with the
statement that the county treasury was
empty, were made and industriously circu
lated to create the impression that it
would be necessary for the Commissioners
to borrow $19,000 or s2o,ooo—money to
pay above items.
We believe wo have ample means to pay
all that will be required to carry on the
business of fhc county without borrowing
any money, notwithstanding assertions to
the contrary by some dissatisfied parties
who have been trying to create the impres
sion that the Commissioners have not been
levying enough taxes to meet the current
expenses of the county, but if our critics
can say nothing worse of us than that we
have endeavored to keep the taxes as low
as we could to meet the actual wants of the
county, we are not very much afraid of
being censured very severely by any
great number or the taxpayers of the
county.
But what we more particularly wish, is
to call the attention of the County Treas
urer to the fact that he refused to cash a
regularly issued warrant, whilst there was
$1,500 in the treasury; alleging that there
wad only sufficient money in the treasury
to pay the several townships an:l boroughs
the amount coming to them from unseated
land tax, but upon investigation we find
that the County Treasurer has no right to
pay to the townships and boroughs any
money on unseated land tax account, ex
cept upon a warrant from the County Com
missioners. We are aware that the prac
tice of the present County Treasurer and
his predecessors has been to pay to the
townships and boroughs, without a war
rant, but in doing so, they do it at their
own risk and without any warrant in law,
and in support of our position we call the
attention of the County Treasurer to Sec.
53, page 1,082, Purdon's Digest, which
says: "Money so received for Road taxes
shall be paid to the supervisors of tho roads
of the townships within which such land
shall lie, on orders to be drawn by the
Commissioners on the Treasurer," also
Sec. 14, page 1,674 winch says that, "Poor
taxes on unseated land when collected
said tax shall be paid to the Overseers of
the Poor of the proper district by orders
drawn by the County Commissioners on
the county treasury." Likewise Sec. 84,
page 294, of the School la w says, "Tax as
sessed on unseated land so collected shall
be paid to the District Treasurer by orders
drawn on the County Treasurer." v
From the above cited sections it would
appear that the only lawful way to pay
money received by the county from the
sale of unseated land is by warrants dnwn
by tho Commissioners in the usual way.
What we have said above is not for pur
pose of silencing any criticism. We ac
knowledge the right of every citizen to
scrutinize our every act, in order that we
may be set right if in error.

Butler, Pa., Aug. sth. 1891.
Legislating by Convention.
Ex Senator Evan Holben, who has cred
itably represented Lehigh county as a leg
islator and who is justly respected alike for
his character and attainments, is willingly
given space in to-day's paper to present his
reasons for supporting a Constitutional Con
vention and a general revision of the fun
damental law. The special constitutional re
forms desired by Mr. Ilolben are:
1. The abolition of free railway passes to
legislators and others.
2. To require the levy of an income tax.
3. To prevent unequal Senatorial dis
tricts.
4. To simplify legislation relating to
cities.
5. To prevent the multiplication of need
less Judges.
We do not propose to discuss tho merits
of-any of the reforms suggested by Mr.
Holben, but to remind him of the fact that
every reform he demands is fully within
the power of the Legislature under the
present Constitution. In other words,
Mr. Holben simply proposes to legislate
by a Convention instead of looking to the
proporlv constituted legislative authority
of the Commonwealth for the enactment of
our laws. This is the most dangerous prin
ciple; it is at war with tho whole genius of
our free institutions, and it sadly impairs
the sanctity of the supreme law when leg
islative provisions invade tho Constitution.
And independent of the fundamental er
ror of legislating by constitutional man
date, how can legislative reforms bo more
readily attained in a Convention than in a
Legislature? If, as Mr. Holben plainly in
timates, railways blunt the moral sensibili
ties of Senators and Representatives by
free passes, and thus prevent the enforce
ment of the plain provisions of tho Consti
tution, why would they not equally blunt
the moral sensibilities of the Convention
Delegates by free passes and thus defeat
the enforcement of the Constitution by its
own provisions? The same people " who
elect Legislatures will elect Convention
Delegates, and if the people fail to enforce
obedience to their wishes in the Lcgisla
ture, by what process of reasoning can
they be expected to do it in a Convention.
The Legislature has persistently refused
to enforce the plainest commands of tho
Constitution for seventeen years, and tho
people have as persistently re-elected just
that class of Legislatures. The commands
of the Constitution about railway passes
and about anti-discrimination have been
simply disregarded, and the equally
emphatic commands about the equitable
formation of Senatorial and other districts;
about the corrupt use ofmoney in elections,
etc., have beon mocked by contemptuous
disobedience of both the letter and spirit of
the fundamental law.
The people should understand that ;the
whole issue of obedience to the Constitution
and of just laws rests with the people
themselves. They can elect a Legislature,
if they will, that would abolish free rail
way passes; that would enact just such tax
laws, income or other tax methods, as the
people want; that would make oquitable
Congressional, Senatorial, Representative
and Judicial districts; that would simplify
legislation relating to cities,and that would
prevent the needless multiplication ot
Judges. All these are clearly legislative
duties; clearly within the power of the
Legislature, and the Legislature will as
willingly enact tho just laws Mr. Holben
demands, as would a convention, and with
much greater safety to tho Commonwealth.
It is always perilous to legislate in a
Constitution. The Constitution is simply
the chart to define the powers and limita
tions of legislative authority. It is much
more sacred than the statutes, which may
be enacted to-day and repealed or modified
to-morrow, and its most vital attributes
must be weakened or destroyed when
legislation of any kind is injected into it.
How could tho Constitution regulate
Senatorial districts or the number of Judges
in the StatcT Both Judicial and Senatorial
districts swiftly change in population,
business and in both judicial auu legislative
necessities. The Constitution would re
quire constant changes to deal justly with
tne people, and it would becomo a mere
fountain of changeable legislation instead
of an unerring chart for tile public safety.
Thero may be verv good reasons for call
ing a Constitutional Convention, but Mr.
Holben has failed to present them. All
the reforms he demands are now clearly
within the scope ot legislative prerogatives,
and the fault is wholly with the people
who elect Legislatures and with the same
people who must elect delegates to the
Convention. Let the people cease to
blame either the Legislature or tho Con
stitution for the real or imaginary wrongs
they suffer, for the people, and only the
people, arc responsible for tho legislative
contempt of the popular will.— Philadelphia

NEIGHBORHOOD NOTES.
While some workmau were excavating
along the shores of Sandy Lake at Stone
boro, to make a suitable steamboat landing j
they encountered what they supposed to ,
be a huge log. The little steamer was hitch- j
ed to it and it was drawn out, when the
discover}' was made that it was a large
1 ndian canoe or dug ont, al>out 4-1 feet •
long, and in a wonderful good -tate of j
preservation. This interesting relic has
been taken to a place of -afety on the
shore, and will be filled with flowers.

iJ At Philadelphia one day last week tho
wife of a well known attorney whispered a
horrible tale in his ear while walking
along the street. She told him she had
put poison in the baby's milk. He rushed
home to save the baby; and she rushed to
depot and eloped with a young docter.
At Friedensville. Pa., five miles from
Allentown, according to the Philadelphia
Ledger, there have been discovered practi
cally inexhaustable deposits of silica. Oyer
fifty acres are known to be underlaid with
that mineral, the veins varying in thick
ness. Samples of the silica were sub
mitted to pottery experts at Trenton, who
pronounced them admirably adapted for
cbinaware.

A good buzzard story comes from Morg
antown, Pa. Harry, Walter and Benja
minc Talbot, a year ago caught a large
turkey buzzard in a steel trap. They took
the bird home and after keeping it a few
days, by means of fine wire attached a
small sleigh bell to one its legs and set it
at liberty. They never heard of the bird
until a few days ago, when they read iu
one of the newspapers of the capture of a
buzzard with a bell fastened to its leg iu
Uolivia, South America. From the de
scription of the bell, and the manner of
fastening, the}* have no doubt but that it
is the identical buzzard that was liberated
by them a year before.

and started at a good rate of speed when
a woman pulled the bell cord and the train
came to a standstill. She called up her
son who was on the platform, kissed him
good bye and motioned for the train to start
again.
Two Cleveland burglars who attempted
to saw their way out of jail used rats as
sentinels. At night, when they were
ready to begin operations, they sprinkled
bread crumbs in front of their cells and
collected a drove of rats. Whenever a
turnkey approached their section of the
jail the rodents scampered away, thus giv
ing the alarm. For several nights they
worked that way, and though the turnkey
heard the sawing and went about on tiptoe,
he never could locate the noise.
A drunken teamster and tho jealousy of
his wife cost C. W. Underwood, of Zanes
villc, about SOOO. Mr. Underwood lost his
pockctbook contaiuing a number of papers,
among them many of which he has no
copy. They were found by a teamster,
who at once got drunk. After showing
his find in a saloon, and lying iu a hay
mow several hours to sober up, he started
for home and fell into a drunken sleep.
His wfl'e went through his pockets, and
having found the pocketbook, which also
contained several rent receipts aud a
picture of Mr. Underwood's wife, the
woman at once arrived nt tho conclusion
that her husband was spending his means
in supporting another womah.under a fic
titious name, and in a fit of jealousy threw
the pocketbook and its contents into the
fire.

The Crop Movement Begun.
The great work of moving the the crop
has now fairly begun. In the month of
July 11,266 ears of wheat were received at
Chicago, about 4,000 cars more than in any
previous July, and the receipt- areincrea
fng daily. The exports ol wheat last week
were 3,it54,000 bushels, making 9,941.:>4.">
bushels for the month as against 2,272.000
bushels for the week and 7,552,000 for the
month la>t year. Grain freights from New
York to Liverpool have risen from two
pense per bushel to three pense owing to
the demand for bottoms. Hailroad earn
ings are increasing, both actually and com
paratively. aud Clearing House returns
are beginning to show up more favorable.
The active sea-on of the year has begun.
As the grain shipments increase there v. ill
be still more activity, and when the cotton
movement sets in next month an addition
al impetus to trade may be looked for.
These improved conditions have been
felt only to a limited exte:>t in the indust
rial world and in trade circles. There is
a better demand for boots aud shoes and
leather goods, and mannlactures are ' 'ty
