Hobiut of New Jersey for Vico i'reaident makes a formidable urray of talent unit political Htrciitftb for tlio head of the lU-imblican tick et. The nomination of MoKinley was a foregone conclusion and was made in responso to the clatn--i.- m.nnjii., nii'y. ..r.",, tr, iv.. rj lh(f. father of the tariff ineasures that have nth- ..ted our home muuufactuiicH and kiivo em ployment to tho woikintfinen of our land. Ho stands in tho proud emi nence of n lender, a man with strong persoual traits, us tho choice of the large majority. Mr. llobart is en dowed none the less highly, but he has not enjoyed the distinction that brought our Ohio hero into promi nence. The most important feature in the platform is the stand on tho money question. The licpiihlicaii party stands pledged to "the existing gold standard" until international agree mi nt for the frea coinage of silver can be secured. If the free coinage of silver could be secured and maintained without depreciating its value, wo believe, the National Convention would glad ly have endorsed such a move. The business men of the country tie mantled a gold standard, because the memories of an intlatod currency during the civil war, have not yi t died away. The ticket and platform are good sound find strong and are meeting the heartiest approval all over this land. practised in all the large city got ernments on the American continent, is leading us rapidly onward to a condition similar to that preceding the out break of the French Revolu tion, and Ood forbid that such a bloody drama should be re-enacted here. I tell you the question of Mu nicipal Government is going to give this country trouble, nnlpnn the remedy bo found to stay the hand of the public vandal and rescue our largo cities from the greed of the spoilsman. The remarks were uttered with forceful earnestness and with calm deliberation. They were unstudied They fell from the speaker's lips amid small, curling putts of white smoke which he nervously blew nwny from his after dinner cigar Iho gentleman who talked nnd tliu engaged a small lot of motley and pertiaps quito indifferent hearers would have likely arrested the at teution of any passerby with his sptcch so made to them. I do not mean to convey the im pression that the small knot of audi tors was indiuercut to what the or aior said, i mean to say that my tliscusHion upon the grave problem of Municipal Government under such circumstances and in such queer environments was in itself peculiar occurence, lor there was barely any reason deep or serious enough to cause a dissertation, how ever brief and uuprepared, when that subjoct. except possibly, f question innocently asked bv a bv standcr, which it appears prompted uie rorgomg declaration, made up on the spur of tho moment and with out any reflection whatever in ad vance If any one in the small croim of collected people knew any thing about .Municipal Government, it was l no sneaker Inmscir. as was evi denced by the brief, pregnant ami vigorous speech he uttered there. Ho was a lawyer of high ability an ex-.Judgo of tho l'eunsvlvania Court who had won long since, a position of admitted repute as a jurist among the really great lawyers of tho State. Ho was quite capable oi sneaking, even alter dinner, just as the famous Depew would be, up on any question, where tho critical display of intelligent information would be certain to become the del icate charm of the occasion. Ho did not talk to hear himself talk, for he is a man thoroughly unafl'ected, with a discrimination of judgment and a ready facility of speech, rare even in men of wide learning and of a correspondingly extensive commerce with tho world Mr. .lames Perdue, an old soldier re siding at Monroe, Mich., was severely unik'ted with rheumatism bu receiv ed prompt relief from pain by using Chamberlain's I'ain Halm. He says: "At times in - back would ache m badly that I could hardly rise up. If 1 had not gotten relief I would not be here to write these few linen, (.'ham berlniu's Pain liulin has done me a great deal of good nnd 1 feel very thankful for it. For sale by all drug gisK Letter From Philadelphia. l'lULAl'lM niA, Jr.NE ',,"'i. Enrrou Post : Within a year past, silting in front oi a -uiinueourgn jioiei, one or a group of men said tomtthing like the following: "I regard the question of Munici pal Government, the ono single, an gry question which faces us. It do lies successful solution. It is just as important more so than tho much discussed TariiV, which has bother ed us from time immemorial, in a congressional sense ; it is more in tricate than tho Money question and will year after year, unless our men who have the power to remedy the diseased conditions of our great citv corporations, do something to nme( ioruto those conditions, and do it quickly, grow moro diflicult and lead to trouble nnd general disaster. The extruvageut and corrupt systems What the Pennsylvania Judge said, upon that occasion was unfor tunately and literally true, and should the predictions with rci'er euco to tho re-enactment of such horrors as made tho French Revolu tion one of the bloodiest wars in history, approach any thing like ful fillment, the penalties of tho day would bo more too harsh, for the au thors of a perverse governmental condition, the corre"ou of which wuld exu'auir." CeitfTyille, limits of retributive, justice. A lu. ber of tho Pennsylvania Senate was present nnd heard tho stirring re marks upon Municipal Government and the conversation drifted im mediately tc that more common and better known subject x'u: tho man agement of borough and township atVuirs, which is small, uet cousin to tho municipality. It would not require much oratory to arouse the interest or the ire of a country tax payer. A lifetime of stern experi ence in meeting tax expenditures has riveted an ineradicable know ledge into the blood and nerves of any man who has a man's heart within himself, and who realizes that tho best energies of his man hood's career are faxed to aid in bearing the bullions of State. The enjoyments id society are costly. Tbc are expensive, luxurious litres sities. Tho wants and fears of in dividuals are the most powerful in centives toward the maintenance of government ami tho law abiding citizen recognizes no higher funda mental duty than to form part of a full commonwealth by cheerfully contributing toward tho necessary legal expenses thereof. Continuing the 1'enua. Judire above referred to cited the recreant deeds of Ross Tweed who fled from New York City twenty-ti voyeurs ago, a lugitivo Horn justice and who be came a refugeo in a strauge land ; and tho daring, nervy acts of Jake Sharp who put through tho famous Rroadwav Deal which cost tho lit' j . 1 i i .i oi us noiu auiuor, as conspicuous examples of flagrant disregard of the courses of public justice, when the euu jusiines mo means, it mis always been dillicult to govern large bodies of men brought together iu a compact territory unless the strong hand of police authority was exer cised with unremitting vigilance and summary justice or punishment dealt out to the law breaker, but when tho custodians of law and or der are chief among thoso who defy tho institutions of peace aud at tempt to Bet at naught the regula tions of municipal authority, the condition becomes intolerable. Such a ntato of atVuirs pievailcd for many years in New York City under the reign of the powerful political organ ization, knovu ns Tiiuimany, aud a situatiou not dissimilar exists to day and has for many years in Phil adelphia. Parkhurst, tho heroic preacher, fired hot shot from tho pulpit into the famous Tiger of many stripes and did actually set in mo tion by his fiery eloquence and burn ing conviction a movement which temporarily swept aside this mon ster organization, and tho reeking filth of Gotham gave away for a little wane, to a reform .Mayor and to a brainy and a vigorous Police Com missioner, both of w hom tried hard to bring about a better state of af fairs in the municipal management of America's greatest citv. Thnv have thus far but partially succeed. i'.i -. . . . . ua, in tue iaco si mums and jeore,al though the State of New York sat through an all summer a session Lexowing the town, and the Clerk of the Assembly at Albany has gotten out five voluminous documents filled with a fervid recital of public testi mony, an ouieiai record oi ofhcia misdoing and public plundering.
