It is a verj' pretty row that is brewing in the ranks of the rival Democratic parties of Pennsylvania. The parties have somewhat changed in their relationship to each other. They were formerly the Randall party and the Wallace party. The advent of Cleveland broke up the lines pretty thoroughly and we then had a Cleveland party, a Wallace and a remnant that clustered around Randall. This remnant has practi- got over into the Wallace party, and the two forces not ar rayed acuinst each other are led by Wallace and Scott. The Erie states man counts among his followers ex ' Governor Pattison, cx-Postmaster Harrity and the old Cleveland of fice-holding list of local statesmen who would like to fill the ofllces agnin and are shouting for Pattison and Cleveland and the spoils. Whether Pattison is a Cleveland man or a Pattison man or some other man for 1802, makes little dif ference, but the impression sought to be conveyed to the general public is that the nomination of Pattison for Governor means a general strengthening of the lines for the ex-President. Wallace protests that he is not opposed to Cleveland. Were he elected Governor and his interests lay in the direction of Cleveland doubtless he wouldn't be, but whether friendly to him or not lie lias been forced by his opponents into a defensive position, for it is the Cleveland, Scott and Pattison combination that is making the con test against him. He is, therefore, the victim of circumstances, if noth- ing more. We have been treated to a very dplightful series of interviews of late, while interesting outbursts of Democratic harmony have added force to these circumstances. First came the unqualified declaration of the Hon. William L. Scott for Pat tison. Mr. Seott is for Cleveland and he says so. "I notice," he re marked, "that Mr. Wallace has been making a qualified denial of his hostility to Mr. Cleveland. He simply states he is not in a combina tion against Mr. Cleveland as charg ed, but ho is careful not to deny that he intends to use whatever political strength and influence he may possess to defeat Mr. Cleveland in case he would he a candidate. Mr. Wallace's candidacy is approved and strongly urged by the New York Sun, and it almost goes with out saying that no one who is not hostile to Mr. Cleveland would re ceive the support of the Sun." On top of this comes the opinion of no less an authority than the Hon. William 11. Sowden, of Allen town, the man who stood ty the side of Randall on the floor of Con gress and valiantly fought against free trade. He went down opposing Cleveland's methods, and naturally he is opposed to everything that savors of Clevelandism. He de clares most emphatically that Wallace should bo nominated, and Scott's bossism will not be tolerated And these declarations are most corpially indorsed by the Hon. Benjamin F. Meyers, of Harris burg. It is an interesting quarrel which will be fought out at the State Con vention, and it is getting hotter as the time for that gathering draws nearer.—Philadelphia Inquirer, cigarette Smoklnff. Heart failure is one of the almost eertain results of excessive cigarette smoking, and is no doubt the cause of death in more cases than are suspected, says the Philadelphia Star. When the law forbidding the sale of cigarettes to boys under 16 was passed, it was thought the evil would be at least partially abated, and for & time such was the case, but within a lew months it has btoken out afresh und seemingly , ■with more vigor than ever. The Star would like to be informed whose duty it is to see that the anti-cigarette law is enforced ? There in every reason to believe that 110 more attention is paid to it than !if it had never been enacted. Boys l get their supplies of the forbidden article from some source and seem ingly in any desired quantity. It is just such neglect as this that brings so many of our laws and ordinances into contempt and renders them completely null and void. Almost daily deaths or serious impairments of the health of boys are published, and if the total was known of the injuries inflicted upon the systems of those who use the cigarette, the community would lie startled at the aggregate. There are many good people engaged in philantropic work in this city, but none that have yet undertaken a crusade against the cigarette, than which there are few evils demanding more determined opposition.

Haw York Enumerator* Obtain Warrant* for Obotrucilonikta. NEW YORK, June 9. —The way of census enumerators here has proved so hard that the objectors who re fused to answer tfeeir questions to the number of sixty or thereabouts to-day came to gri«f. Every day has added fresh woes to the trials of the enumerator. To-day his troubles culminated, and warrants wer«t is sued from the United Stales Dis trict Attorney's office for the arrest of sixty of his tormentors. The enumerator was in hard lack to-day. One by one they straggled into the District Attorney's office in all sorts of conditions—some with torn raiment, others with discol ored laces. Among the enumerators were three women, who had been treated as roughly as their male fellow laborers in the census vine yard. Whether the ladies parleyed with ancient females turning fifty and giving their agts as twenty-.ive is not known, but certain it is that the women enumerators cave evi dences of having had their feelings bauty hurt. SUM.V YRILY BOUNCED. Among the general run of com plaints the following specific cases may be selected as specimens of the trials of the census enumerator. One of the officials rang the bell of a house on West Third street and lie was admitted. The enumerator was guyed by the inmates. Then he incautiously asked the proprietor what century she was born in. He also said that the inmates were old enough to die and many othe r things that hurt their feelings. Then he asked tlicm, as the law pro vides, whether they were white or black. Then the war began. The occupants became so many Amazons. The women charged upon the census enumerator and ejected him. A warrant ensued for the arrest of the proprietor. Anc.r cause ofdisturhance arose on Wist Twelfth street, when one ol tlie census men asked, according to his list of questions, how many children the lady of the house had. The lady of the house wis enjoying the first period of her honeymoon, and her husband, who "vas in the vicinity, made things lively for the official. MET WITII AXJS. From the Ilarlem district com plaints come in by the score. In the big tenement districts in the lowei part of the city things are worse. There the await the comiug ot the census enumerator with axes. Over fifteen of the warrants were directed to Madison, Oliver and Cherry streets. In these streets the enumerators say that the people in the houses will a cept the tabulated census papers from them and then tear them up before their faces. Remonstrance only provokes dis turbance and to-day it was not un common to see a census man flying, pursued by women and children. In many cases the police had to interfere. The peculiarity about the issuance of the warrants is that the enumerators were unable to give the names of the offenders, and as a con sequence they were all made out in the name of John Poe and Mary Roe. Another difficulty in the prosecution of the offenders will be the discovery of their identity. Generally wlien a man is flying for his life from a mob lie is busy to remember the faces of the ringlead ers. The marshal's bailiffs, as a consequence, were unable to make many arrests. I> "OKI<;iV4I. PACKAGES." A Decision Til ft 112 PcaK a Klou m ■ own Prohibition. MASON CITY, la., June o. —Judge John C. Slierwin made a sweeping decision in the origiiSil package in junction cases which have been pending for the past weet, which is by far the severest blow at prohibit tion the State has yet received. In his decision the Judge finds that the defendants, as agents of importers, could occupy tie building for the purpose of selling beer in original packages to all p-rsons ex cept minors and habitual drunkards and that such use would rot consti tute a nuisance, though the beer was drank on the premises by the purchasers and that the sales, al though shipped by the o.ises were eales in original packages. lie granted a temporary injunc tion restraining defendants from selling to minors and those in the babit of being intoxicated.—Ex.
