THE ORIGIN OF PARTIES.
As this is what is called an "off year
in politics—no particular issue or policy
of great moment depending for the time
upon the decision of the voters, and
only the general disgust of the Republi
cans of the state with what is called the
"gang"' at Harrisburg to at all endan
ger the usual Republican majority —a
note of the parties or factions at the be
ginning of our National Government
may be of interest.
When, after the close of the War for
Independence, the colonists recognized
that the further usefulness of the Arti
cles of Confederation, which had served
them during the war. was at an end,
and that "a more perfect Union" was
necessary for their common defense and
general welfare, two factions or senti
ments almost immediately developed.
One of these favored a strong central
government as being essential to the
financial and commercial success of the
new government, and also as a re tra:nt
upon revolutionists and anarchists:
while the others feared centralization
as tending towards monarchy, and fav
ored the sovereignty of the states as the
beet security for continued republican
government.
Washington, Hamilton, Jay, Adams
and others favored a strong central
government, and at that time were call
ed Federalists; while Jeffersor, Henry,
Mason, Harrison and others favored
state sovereignty, aud were called anti-
Federalists or Republicans.
The Constitution adopted was acotn
promise—the state sovereignty idea ap
pearing in it in the equal representa
tion in the Senate of the states—large
and stnill alike.
Washington was elected President,
and framed his cabinet; and he and
Hamilton applied themselves towards
paying off the national debt and estab
lishing a national credit. Congress, af
ter a warm contest between the factions
adopted some revenue measures sug
gested by Hamilton, including a tax on
foreign and domestic spirts.
The collection of this tax was resisted
in Allegheny, Westmoreland, Washing
ton and Fayette counties of this state;
riots followed during which several
men were killed; an army of several
thousaud men was organized to resist
the collection of the tax; General Sev
ille, the Collector, was driven out of
the country; and there was a sentiment
In fayor of establishing a new republic
west of the mountains, all of which
Washington crushed by sending an
army of fifteen thousand men to Pitts
burg.
During Washington's administration
the contest between the two factions
was waged with bitterness, and besides
this, the French Revolution was in pro
gress at that time, and emissaries from
that country made trouble in this—par
ticularly in the Mississippi valley.
Washington was succeeded by
Adams, also a Federalist; and then the
states rights or lccal sovereignty idea
prevailed, and Jefferson was elected,
and that party, first called Republican
and afterwards Democratic, continued
in power, with the exception of the one
month that Harrison was in office, un
til the election of Taylor and Filmore
by the Whig or Tariff party built up
by Henry Clay, in 1849.
They were succeeded by Pierce and
Buchanan, Democrats--the latter being
the only Pennsylvanian ever elected
President. Then came the anti-Slavery
agitation, and the election of Abraham
Lincoln, on that issue in 1861, followed
by the secession of tho Southern states
from the Union, and the Civil War
and the political history of the country
since is well known to the present gen
eration.
The Republican party ot today is the
successor of the original Federal party
in that it.favors a strong, central gov
ernment; and also of the Whig party,
as it adopted Henry Clay s protective
tariff ideas.
It has met and solved the money and
all other great questions that arose, the
country has prospered wonderfully un
der its administrations, it now has a
President who can be trusted to do his
duty in curbing corporate greed, the
lower house of Congress has also shown
a disposition to do what is right in that
direction, and the only menace to the
party and to the Nation at present is
the bunch of millionares who have
bought their seats in the United States
Senate with money, and hold them by
patronage, and who block legislation
vital to the general welfare.
OREC;ON was the scene of a flood,
Monday night, which drowned five
hundred people. A cloud-burst over
tae valley near the town of Ilepprer
caused a wall of water, twenty feet
high, to sweep down upon the town and
destroy it.
POLITICAL.
God chooseth men,great hearted,strong,
To stand in legislative halls,
Thou wert His standard bearer long
Responsive to thy country's calls.
Welcome home. Unmoved by base,
ignoble strife,
The leader of the dauntless few,
The hero of the stainless life
Accept our homage as thy due.
Shouting these words,thousands gath
ered at Montrose, Pa, on Tuesday of
last week, from near and far to do
honor to Susquehanna county's favorite
son, Hon. Galusha A. Grow, in a rous
lug ■welcome home to private life after
bis leng and honorable service in Con
gress, from which he retires at the age
of eighty one.
Mr, Grow was Speaker of the House,
during the war. He would liked to
ba|e ended his political career by a
term in the U. 8. Senate, but the
Camerons and Quays always said "No."
The Philadelphia North American
continues to "*o for" the Harrisburg
gang, and says they are attempting, to
chance the state's motto from "Virtue,
Liberty and Independence" to "Vanity,
License and Impudence."

Tlie Tragedy at licl^riiilc.
Over in south''astern Reroi>e lying
between Austria an<l Turkey, are sever
al small states tbat Americans know
but little of Their names on the map
are Montenegro. Sevria, Roomania and
Bulgaria. Montenegro appears tc be
all mountains, and borders on the Ad
riatic: Servia is a state of al>ont iO.OOrt
square miles, with two millions of pop
ulation, bounded bv the Danube river
and a branch of it named Save on the
north, and by Turkey on the south,
while Roumania and Bulgaria are
larger states to the eastward, divided
by the lower Danube. The Balkan
mountain iange is in Southern Servia.
and runs through Bulgaria to the Black
Sea.
Northern Servia. the part along the |
rivers is fertile and produces wheat,
corn, rice, tobacco, hemp, etc.: while in
the southern or hilly country immense
herds of cattle and pigs are raised for
the European market The country
has no manufactories, the people are of
Slavonic origin, belong to the
Greek church, and are mostly farmers.
The government of Servia is a limited
monarchy: there is a King and a lot of
ministers: but the laws are made by a
small legislative assembly called the
Skupshtina.
As usual, also, there are different
branches of the royal family, all jealous
and distrustful of each other, and escli
coveting the throne, which for some
years has been held by the Obrenoviteb
branch. King Milan of this branch
was such a notorious rascal tbat he was
compelled to abdicate the throne, some
years ago, in favor of his son. then a
mere boy, with his Queen, Natalie, the
boy's mother, as regent.
Queen Natalie did well, ard every
thing was serene until a woman named
Draga, wife of a man named Maschin,
obtained complete control of the boy.
then aged 17, and induced him to over
thrown the regency of his mother anil
declare himself King, and a few years
later, when he was 24 and she about 40
to marry her.
This disgusted the people, and the ac
tions of the royal couple since have
continued to outrage their sensibilities.
The army took th« matter up, and the
officers plotted to send the woman ont
of the country. At a jtiven signal, last
Thursday night, troops surrounded the
palace in Belgrade, broke into it and de
manded of the young King that he sign
a paper to that effect or abdicate. He
replied with a shot that killed the officer
who presented the paper, whereupon
the officers and men present killed him
and Draga. her two brothers, and other
relatives and ministers, thereby wiping
out the'entire Obrenovitch branch of
the family, excepting ex-Queen Natalie
who is an exile.
The officers of the army then pro
claimed Prince Kara-georgeyitch (or
Black George's son; a descendent of
Black Michael, of another branch of the
family to be King, if the Skupshtina
would agree. Prince Kara has also
been an exile, and hae been living quiet
ly with his family for some years in
Switzerland,
The dead King and Queen and their
friends were buried quietly next day,
while the Colonel that the King killed
was given a military funeral; the peo
ple took the affair very quietly, as this
was not the first time their government
had been changed by assassination.
The enclyclopedia says the Servians
are a strong, well-built and handsome
people.
The First Clear Night.
In the last article, due to delay in
publication, a slight mistake appeared
with reference to position Venus
and Mars are both visible now in the
western sky. We remember that they
are both planets and belong to the solar
system.
We have learned that our solar system
is not the only one of its kind but that
other systems have been proved to exist
composed of suns, which we call "stars"
and planets, invisible to the naked eye
but not so to the strong telescopes of
our time. The discovery of these
planets was due to the peiturbations or
irregularities of movement that they
produced on their suns.
But we must not expect all thp
systems to be in exactly the same con
dition as the one we know best, any
more than we would expect all the
members of a family to be of the same
age or disposition. Most of these other
systems have been found to differ
slightly from ours, in that the planets
do not revolve about their suns but that
the sun and planet revolve about their
common centre of gravity, much as do
the "governors" on a stationary enginn.
This is because the planets here are
larger compared with their sun than
our planets are compared with ours
The same law applies to all systems,
only in ours, on account of the greater
relative size of the sun, the centre of
gravity lies beneath his surface. There
is no reason to suppose that somewhere
in the universe there are not other solar
systems in exactly the same conditions
of development and habitabilityasours
In some persons' minds the presence of
one argues the existence of others. But
this is mere speculation, not fact.
It has long been a favorite idea with
star-gazers that there is a centre
around which all the known universe of
stars and star-systems revolves. Many
attempts have been made to fix upon
some particular star as this centn*.
But astronomers are cautious in taking
up with such ideas and while it is be
lieved that there is such a centre, it is
held that this is simply the centre of
gravity, and not a star.

License Court.
The first license court held by
Judg.- Galbreath. met Tuesday ni'.rn
ing. Court convened at nine o clock
and at that hour the room and corridors
were tilled by the fifty or sixty appli
cants, their friends aud witnesses, re
monstrants. wholesale liquor agents
looking for a chance to sell a bil' "f
goods to a new customer.and spectators.
On account of Attorney W. C.
Thompson having to leave town Tues
day evening he was allowed to present
his applications first and led off with C.
H. and H. B. Kemp of the Lowry. The
case was quickly desposed of.
The application of J. A. K'ein of the
Willard came next and was quickly
disposed.
Capt Herman Liebold applied for the j
Hotel Arlington.
On the application of B. J. Forquer of :
the Forquer House.Chicora. S Frankle, t
B. Rumbaugh and others appeared for
the applicant. The court asked if;
laborers on the new railroad had not
raised disturbances in the bar room
Charles Miller of Evans City came j
next. Henry Ifft. Philip Nicholas, and j
others testifying for him. j
The application of .T. C. Martin of 1
the Commercial House. Mars, was then
presented and a merrv time followed.
J. D. Marshall, for the remonstrants,
questioned Martin closely. Martin de
nied that he had ever abused Mrs.
Westerman when she accused him of
selling to Charles Barr. that he had not
sold to several men who were mention
ed as being of known intemperate
1 habits and to minors, and that he had
given one witness against him money to
leave the country. Geo. Logan, (*il
bert Hooks. Sam Redic and \V. Allen
appeared for Martin. Hooks admitted
there had been a "fuss in Martin sl' r
room because, he said. Wm. Qilliland
had came home from Butler, gone in
there to raise a row with him, and after
getting a couple more drinks accus d
Hooks of voting for Mr. Galbreath
because he had been promised a whole
sale license. Hooks called him a liar and
then there was trouble, btit be denied
that they had thrown out the Constable.
Another witness was James McElroy of
Ireland, who said he was a perfect bar
keeper, had eight years experience and
ran the best bar e% r er. He had left
Martin's employ a week before court.
The remonstrance against Martin stated
that his house was unfit for a licensed
house, tbat a licensed house was m
necessary, that he had sold to minors
and men of known intemperate habits
and was intemperate himself. Mrs
Bn/.ard testified that her son aged is
years had gotten liquor at Martins
Mrs. Westerman said she had had
Martin notified not to sell liquor to
Charles Barr, that she had followed
Barr into Martin's ami saw him di irk
ing. She upbraided Martin and he said
"Your a damned old liar, gft out of
my house, you damned old heifer."
Martin denied this. Judge Galbreath
said a man who used such language to
woman was unfit to hold license. Ben
Feil. dged 10 years, testified he liought
beer at Martin's. Rev. G. I. Wilson
testified that Wm. Crozier, on the day
his wife died, had gotten drunk, came
home and chased Ilia help out of the
house, tore loose the hair of the corpse
and went to sleep lying under the bier
on which bis wife's dead body lay lie
had gotten Honor from Martin. Wm
Gilliland testified Martin had sr>ld t > n
minor. At this point the application was
withdrawn.
Geo. Haworth applied for license in
the Hotel Bowman, South Side, aud
was asked the usual questions.
A remonstrance was presented by T.
M. Baker and .T. D. Marshall against
the application of .Tos H. Harvey for
license in the Hotel Waverly. on ac
count of its being opposite the McKein
St. school. Judge Galbreath said it had
been the rule of the Court for ten years
past not to grant license there on that
account, and he saw no good reason for
making a new precedent.
Tuesday afternoon the application of
Fisher & Kearns for a wholesale license
on E. Jefferson St. was first taken up.
The application of S. M. Wilson for a
tavern license at Renfrew was heard.
He has two or three transient boarders

plenty of testimony that a license was
and was not necessary in Renfrew.
The application of David Stewart for
a tavern license for the hotel he con
ducts in the theatre building at Mars
was next heard. Several witnesses tes
tified the house was necessary. A re
monstance was presented stating that
Stewart was an unfit man to hold
license and that his house was unfit for
hotel purposes, being the lower part of
the theatre. Rev. Wilson stated
they had taken Ernest Gamble, the
basso, there and he had refused to stay.
The application of Ralph Gregg for
the Park Hotel license was heard Thurs
day morning, and he had easy sailing.
The Court suggested that some im
provements were needed in tho build
ing if granted license.

remonstrance. A number of men testi
fied to the fitness of the applicant aud
to the necessity of the hotel Witnesses

Tragic I>eatli of l>r. Moore.
The sudden death of Dr. .T. \V. F.
Mcore, last Sunday afternoon was one of
tbe greatest Ftirprises the people of
Butler have ever experienced: and
when they visited the scene of tbe ac
cident next day they wondered that a
death trap like that and, also like the
one around the alley corner, had been
left unprotected. If such carelessness
is not criminal it is hard to imagine
what is.
Dr. Moore and Robert and Frank
Pringle visited the rooms of Frank
Wagner in one of the new Duffy build
ings last Saturday night to view soiffe
hunting relics owned by Mr. Wagner
and arrange for a fishing trip They
left the room and descended to the side
walk on Main St, about midnight and
finding that it was raining, Frank
ran back to the room for his umbrella,
whiie the Dr. and Robert stepped into
the vacant space between the two
buildings for protection from the raiu.
The area was dark, the guard rail had
not vet been put up. the Dr stepped
back too far and fell headlong to the
cemented floor below, a distance of
about eleven feet, striking 011 his head,
and fracturing the skull at its base.
Mr. Pringle immediatelj called for
help and went to the rescue, and the
Dr. was taken to the Hospital, wh*.re
he lingered until Sunday noon, never
recovering consciousness.
His body was removed to Roessing's
undertaking rooms and then to Mr.
Sutton's home on N. McKean 3t where
services were held Monday morning:
and then taken to the home of his
father at Whitesburg, Armstrong Co.
He was a son of Capt Johu Moore of
Whitesburg, was 37 years ot age, was a
graduate of Jefferson Medical College

ten years ago, and has been very success
