The Next State Senate. There seems to be a pepular impression that because there is a large Republican in the State Senate the Republi cans must have a majority of the hold-over Senators. This is a mistake. Of the twenty fiye Senators representing the even num bered districts whose terms will extend through the next session of the Legislature but nine are Republicans;«xteen are Demo crats. The Republicans are Ilwood Beck er, C. Wes ey Thomas, Noise Penrose, and Jacob Crouse, ot Philadelphia; Winfield S. Smith, of Lancaster; N. B. Critchfield of Somerset; John N. Neeb and William Flinn, of Allegheny, and W. R. Crawford, of Venango. The Senators whose terms will expire with the present year and whose successors will be elected next No*ember are;— 1 George S Smith r27 S D Bates r 3 Francis Osbonrn r 29 L R Keefer r 5 Charles A Porterr3l J M Woods r 7 John C Grady r 33 W M Williamson,r 0J B Robinson r 35 J A Lemon r 11 H D Green d 37 H K Slone d 13 Amos H Mylin r »E E Robbins r 15 A F Thompson r 41 J B Showalter r 17 J P 8 Gobin r 43 John Cpperman r 19 8 E Neven d '45 Samuel 8 Steel r 21 W H Hines d 47 Vacant 23 J C Newell r 49 D B McCreary r 25 H B Packer r , In this list there are twenty Republicans and but four Democrats, with one vacancy. There is only one absolutely certain Demo cratic district amoDg them, the Eleventh, composed of Berks County. The Nine teenth District, Chester County, and the Thirty-seventh, Indiana and Jefferson, are very certain to go Republican this year, while the Twenty-first District, which is in Luzerne County is debatable, and really ought to be redeemed by the Republicans. The Republicans lost six districts in 1890 from one cause or another, but in all but one district the loss can be traced to the de moralization in the party created by tbe un popular nomination for Governor and tbe methods by which it was brought about. If the Republicans aro to have tbe same strength they had at the last session they must carry at least twenty-two of the | twenty-five districts, and unless the party , is more seriously bandicaped than it ought , to be there will be no great dificulty in win- ■ ning twenty-three districts, leaving the Democrats but two. < Let it not be forgotten that tbe political complexion of the next Senate will depend upon the election of next November, for tbe majority of the hold-over Senators are Democrats. The fact is not a misfortune, for it will enable the party to elect more than two-thirds of the Republican Senators on the direct issue of the United States Senatonhip.—Philadelphia Press. Thk Cameron —Quay crowd forced the Philadelphia primaries for last Tuesday, Jan. 12tb, and seem to have had every thing their own way. By shouting for Blaine they elected ten anti-Administration delegates to the Minneapolis convention, and 55 delegates to the state convention who will support Quay in his fight against Harrison. Thb fact tbat the Congressional nomi nating Convention for the Twenty-fifth District has already been fixed for tbo sec ond Tuesday itf May indicates tbat there are to be very early primaries. The twen ty.fifth district ia composed of tbe counties of Bearer, Butler, Lawrence and Mercer, and it ia moat likely that the nomination* for tlje Legislature will be made in all of th era betori the Ist of May. Thia ia well understood to be a part of Senator Quay's programme in counties where his friends can fix tbe time for the prima riea. la this way he expects to have many Legislative nominations made before tbe opposition is aroused. Bis candidates are already agreed npon and are at work. Philadelphia Prcs*. A Ballot Box Choaen. The commisaion created by the Baker ballot law to aelect booths and other nec essary paraphernalia has completed its work bjr adopting a ballot-box manufac tured by C. P. Honeadon of New York at a ooat of $3 each. Tbe box is of wood,squtire in shape and plain in appearance. Tbe commission refused to adopt any of the booths submitted for their seleotion, and have prepared a apeoifiation which must be followed by the manufacturers at a cost not to exceed $4.75 each, tbe annexes thereto not to exceed $3.50 each. The booth ia to be bnilt of white pine, 1} inch tbi ck. and to be made with hinges for folding. The guard rail selected ia that of the Buffalo Portable Steel-House Compa ny of Buffalo at a coat of $4.80 each. Thxm is probably no public man today more jattiy execrated for his utiscrnplous political methods than David B. Hill,a low and reekleaa politician, ever scheming for aclf atrands at tbe expense of the public good. Ehren bis party tbat is willing t<> profit by bis high banded course will not applaud bis methods. It was left tor our own Senator to express bis approval of HUI and bis lawless contempt for every tbiugtbatia decent and fair in politics. It ia so like be would administer the politics of this State—and has so far as he wasable —that hecannot withhold bis admiration. Heia quoted in bis orgau, the Pittsburg Com-Gazette, as having said. "I will say frankly that 1 admire his way of running the politics of bis State." Senator and Senator Hill will doubtlewt form a mutual admiration society. Their tastes are certainly congenial.—Sharon llcraUl. KIMIXG will probably become a perma nent feature of our political contest*.

JOHN DALZELLS CANDIDACY. JCST WHAT THIS STATE !CSEI>B. New York Independent. It is said that Congressman Dalzell. who worthily represents the Twenty-second District of Pennsylvania in the House ot Representatives, is a candidate to succeed Senator Quay. It would be a most excel lent selection. Xo State in the Union U more inadequately represented in the upper house than Pennsylvania. |The great State ought at least to have one Senator wh<. can speak for bar oil important questions It is most earnestly to be hoped that Mr. Dalsell will be selected. MAKE A* OPBS COSTBST. Xorristown Times. It is plain as day that there is a ven interesting conflict ahead over the questior of the successor to Mr. Quay as United States Senator from Pennsylvania. And as this confliot is now inevitable, it is much to be desired that it be conducted abeve board, in an open field, and upon fair and square principles of warfare I* • • That Mr.Quay Is already a candidate, working quietly but most industriously in his own inimitible way, is well known by those informed on the situ ation. Let him however declare himself meeting Mr. Dalsell face to face. In that event no one will be able to belittle his victorj in case he wins, and it will to im possible to pat a doubtful const ruction on the result in case he .is defeated. Come out from under cover Mr. Quay, and let the fight be fair and open. SHOCLD BB A!» IMPOSSIBILITY. Doylestown Intelligencer. From the Intelligencer's standpoint there is but one eligible candidate appealing to the Republican barty of Pennsylvania for election to the United Stales Senate. If Mr. Quay represents anything but his own desire to succeed himself and the power of organised political machinery, it has nev er been manifested. He has taken no place of leadership in the Senate; he has not yet vigorously upheld Republican prio eiples;be has not yet originated good legisla tion; he has not given industrious service; there is no claim anywhere, by any ele ment of the party, that Mr. Quay has been a valuable Senator; he has not exerted a good influence in Pennsylvania State poli tics; he has not sought to declare and sup port sound Republican doctrine in party platforms; there is nothing Senator Quay has done, so far as is known to the public, since the election of 1888, which has been for the good of the Rebnblican party. In fact Quayism jn Pennsylvania and the na tion has been so harmful tiiat much of the disaster ef 1890 is fairly chargeable thereto while the result of 1891, after Quay's break with President Harrison, betokens a reac tion in favor of Republicanism apart from Quay. Quay's candidacy, judged upon his own and the party '* record in three years past should be an impassibility. As Pennsyl vania's representative in the United States Senate, he should have no consideration. Mr. Qaay only represents the machine of politics, which has already a man ia the person of Mr. Cameron. WASHINGTON In tbe HOQM the greater part oi last week was taken up in the introdact k>n< l bills. Representative Dalxell introduced a Joint resolntioa providing for the election of U. 8. Senators by the popular vote. The ship-canal bill, and several others. Representative Gillespie introduced a ship catial bill similar to that of Representative Dalxell. Representative Stone of Alleghe ny has a plan for restricting immigrat ion; several bills placing wool and other articles on the free list were introduocd, and Sena tor Peffer wants Uncle Sam to loan Indi ana a hundred millions. More Trouble with Chili. Washington, D. C., Jan. 12.—The fol lowing cable message from Commander Ev ans, commanding the gunboat Yorktown, the only United States vessel now in Chilian waters was'made public this afternoon. VALPABAISO, Jan.!). Secretary of the Navy : Yesterday afternoon my gig while lying off the landing place waiting, was atoned by three men in a crowd of bad characters; no one was itjured. I visited immediately tbe senior Chilian naval officer afloat and requested him to notify the police authori ties that I demanded their efficient pro tection and that if the offence was repeat ed I would take tbe matter in my own hands and protect my men with arms. Much regret was expressed by tho Chilian senior naval officer who went at once to the police. To-day I have assurance that the parties will be punished and protection given. EVANS." TRACT WIS MIMQCOTKD. Secretary Tracy desires to have it known that he did not say, as he has been widely quoted assaying, that tbe naval strength «f ChiH is greater than that of the United States. "What I did say," remarked the secre tary this afternoon, "was that I bolieved Chili was ambitious to maintain a stronger naval power in tbe Pacitic than any other nation, and that if there had been no war in that country and she had not lest ber ships, and if the three ships constructed for her in Europe were out, she could have done everything she plsased with our Pa cific squadron. I was not speaking, how ever, of our naval strength as a whole, for the reason that onr Pacific and Atlantic squadrons ire much larger and more pow erful than the Chilian fleet. THB OABIITBT IW COSSCI.TAI 108. The trouble with Chili was the principal topic of discussion at the meeting of the cabinet to-day with a view of tbe transfer of the furthar consideration of the subject to congress. It is understood that the ou tire correspondence will be sulimited to congress early next week. All members of the cabinet were present at today's meeting except Secretary Foster who is at Fortress Monroe. Terrible Mine Explosion. —An explosion of gas in tho coal mine of tbe Osage Mining Co, along tbe line of the Missouri, Kansas. & Texas R, R., at the villiege of Krebs in Indian Territory, last Thursday afternoon caused tbe death af a hundred miners. There were four hundred men in the mine at tbe timo and they were just about leaving it. Just bafora the explosion occurred the hoisting cage bad arrived at the top with half a dozen men. As the last man stepped from the cage tbe explosion occurred and the force of the concussion forced tbe cage nearly 100 feet in the air. A second later a scorching flatne shot npward, driving tbe men back to a place of safety. Many of tbe men, some say nearly half, employed in the mine, succeeded ill effect ing their escape by climbing up through the air shaft. One of the men who escaped in this way climbed fully 450 feet with a brok en leg. Many of those wbo climbeb to the top were badly burned, in somn cases the tlesh stripped from their hands, as they grasped the ladder. There were many sad scenes witnessed as the bodies of tbe dead were brought to the surface. Wives and children gathered around, weeping eni moaning; strong men turned away to hide the moisture tbat would gather in their eyes, in spite of their utmost efforts to keep it ba«k. It will be fully a week before all the bodies of tbe entombed men can be reach ed and brought to the surface. Work will be pushed as fast as possible, however, and every endeavor will be made to get at them. Peensylvania and Rhode Island- From the Philadelphia) Press. When that strong Republican paper, the Wellsboro Agitator, expresses the feeling that the representation of Pennsylvania in the I'nited States Senate ought to be "raised at least to the level of that of little Rhode Island" it is in danger of hitting our present Senators in every tender spot. Rhode Island has a really strong represen tation in the Senate, as many Pennsylva nia business men have come to know in the past few years In most instances, if not all, when our business men have gone to Washington to confer with the Pennsyl vania Sonators on matters of consequence to the material interests of the State they have been referred to Senator Aldrich, of Rhode Island, or to some other Senator who knew something outside of spoils-get ting. been a very hnmilating fact to Pennsylvnaians who have had business at the capital, and who supposed our Sen ators would be competent to take hold of any matter which concerned the business interests of the State. A Big Ticket. The ballot to be voted next Fall will be somewhere near the size of a page of this paper. As soon as the State Commission shall have determined on the exact size and de tails of the new ballot Secretary Harrity will send a specimen copy of it to the County Commissioners and others interest ed in the printing of the official tickets. Tbis ballot will probably bo as largo as any that will ever be used in this or any other State. Tne names of thirty two Presidential electors from each party, the nominees for Congress, including the can didatos-at-largo, and for Senator, Repre sentative and county offices, must all be printed on one ticket. If the names were printed one after the other on a ticket foar inches wide the ballot would probably be three yards long. Congressional Nominations. EDITOR CITIZEN: The new plan, lately agreed upon at New Castle lor the nomi nation of Republican candidates for Con gress in our present district, as published last week, while not all that was desired by the Republicans of this county, or all that should have been given, yet when closely examined is a great improvement on the former mode. First, while the old delegate system is retained, and the sam" uurubor of dele gates, fifteen, given to each county, yet the candidates have now tho right, and must in fact, announce themselves in each of the four counties of the district, and their names must be printed on the primary election tickets of each county. Without a compliance with this rule it is declared that "votes shall not be counted for the candidate thus failing to announce." Now a fair and almost necessary inference and construction of this new rule is, that if the candidate does so announce, bis "votes" shall or ought to be "counted." How "counted" t. Yon could not count "votes" through the delegates. They could only be "counted" as voted by the people. Otherwise the case might arise of a candidate having the largest popular vote in the four counties and yet because he had no delegates his namo would not come before the district I'onvontion. This would be so manifestly unfair and unjust that we take it for granted that after the candidate, as presented from each county, as its first choice, shall have received the first ten ballots,as provided for by the new mode, and fa iled to be nominated, tha then the second candidate, having the second highest vote, should hive his votes "counted." This would be reaching to wards the popular vote system and if the late committees at New Cattle had only made provision for a second choice from among the candidates as voted lor by the people then it would have been still more 'clear As it is. when the dead lock is broken by the ten ballots cast for firr>t choice, and the delegates are free, they would not, and wo think would not dare to ignore the voice of the people as ex pressed at the primaries. And if this should turn out to be the result we may look Tor fair and honest nominations for Congress in tbis district hereafter. A REPHBLICAN. The Henry-Beers Wedding.

EMTOB. —My last was after a flying trip to the Southern boundary of Califor nia. Since that time our headquarters have been at Los Angelos and vicinity. The country around this leading city of Soul hern California is almost wholly de voted to fruit growing—the citrous fruits predominating. While in Los Angelos we made two trips to the coast, IB miles dis tant. Kedonda Beach is a fine winter and sum mer resort. There is here a finely equipped hotel, overlooking the ocean. The beach is beautiful and the surf bath ing fine. There is a good harbor here, that is, the water is deep and large ocean vessels can sail up to the wharf. The oth er trip was made with a company of nine to Santa Monica. This is also one of Los Angelos'popular resorts. The beach is very fine and the rolling of "he surf i* grand. Our party spent a few hours hunt ing shells and some very pretty specimens were found especially the Abalona. Northeast ofLos Angelos and eight miles distant is the very pleasantly located city of Pasadena. It is situated at the base of the foothills, in a semi circular core of the mountains, which rise to the height of 6000 feet. The city is noted for its fine avenues, excellent orange groves and and beautiful flowers. The most noted hotel here is the Keymond, at from thirty five to fifty-six dollars per week. It is scarcely necessary to say that we did not stay any length of time. For four weeks past we have been at the pleasant little tewn of Monrovia. It is nestled in close to the foothills and is a quiet, sheltered nook. It is in the orange belt and boasts ?f some fine groves. The '"Grand View" is an excellent hostelry. From this point two of our party made the accent of Wil son's Peak, altitude 6000 feet. The ascent is made in the saddle on the backs of burros. The trail is narrow, the grade is steep, and gulches hundreds of feet deep oa One band and perpendicular walls on the other, render the trip sufficiently ex citing. When the summit is reached the prospect is sublime. One is inspired with awe as in the profound stillneso of eve or early morn ho surveys the wide expanse. To the West lies the ocean thirty miles distant. Santa C'atilena island twenty-five miles from the coast is seen quite distinct ly, pnrtictxlarly the surf beating its rocky shore. The Los Angelos and the San Gab riel valleys lie at our feet while to the North and Last is the great Majove des ort girt by the Sierra Nevada Mountains. The experience of such a trip can be viv idly described in this way —one would not miss of for a hundred dollars and would not take again for five hundred. Wc.have seen California in its most som bre garb. There has been but three light showers of rain since wc came to the state. Nothing verdant except our party and the evergreen leaves. The ground entirely bare and san.l and dust everywhere. On ihe 10th of Dec. this section, from the coast eastward for more than 00 miles was visifed by a regular simoon of the desert —a sand storm that terrific. The wind began blowing in the a. m. and continued all day and on the early morn of the 11th reached its greatest velocity. There was neither cloud nor rain, but tho air was thick with dust and *and, which cut the leaves entirely off many of the trees. In Pasadena three churches were entirely de stroyed, and many buildings unroofed. The sand drifted liko snow several feet in depth. The surface as deep as plowed was in some places blown away destroy ing an entire crop of sweet potatoes. But the greatest loss was the orange crop, from one-third to one half being blown off the trees. The loss to this crop alone in this neighborhood is by some estimated at #20,000. This disaster was followed by the coldest weather known here for years. Ice formed from one-half to three-fourths of in inch thick. Flowers, semi-tropical plants, orange trees and the fruit to some extent was injured by the cold. A great deal of discomfort was experienced as fuel is scarce and little provision is made for heating the dwellings. Indeed one feels the cold here as much as they do a greater degree at home. At Riverside tho freezo injured the young orange trees and fruit was damaged to some extent. Our home for awhile will be Monrovia, Los Angelos Co., Cal. Three of our party have left for the East. I will remain in thn sunny land for a month or more be fore turning my face towards the rising sun. Geo. Siiocp. Monrovia, Cal Frkd I)ovula.hu has recently secured a plac as a clerk in the agricultural depart ment for the daughter of his old master in the days ol slavery.
