OMATTEU,dear reader, whethor tbo author of "Beautiful Snow," that most pathetic ami soul affecting mld-wiutcr poem, Is over found out or not; no mattor whethor tlio particulars of the death of tho Ar tic explotor, Sir John Franklin, is over explained to tlio satisfaction of a scientific public; no matter whether the fato of crow and passengers of the City of Boston, which for twenty years has been mystery, over comes to light; no matter whethor Brer Itastus can ever demonstrate that tho "sun do move;" no difference to you or me whether an open polar Eea Is over dis- covered or not, slnco it has transpired and been definitely ascertained to whom tbo pub lie is indebted for tho monetary plank in the platform adopted at Harrisburg on Wedncs day by tho Republican Stato Convention, And but for tho ontcrpriso of a borough oven Ing paper, which interviews the same gentleman on some great problematic subject every fortnight, wo would all bo still in tho dark and it would uovor bo known to whom tho general public aro Indebted for many blessings which comoto us Boftly as tho gentlo dews from heaven. True, wo havo been led to believe, and many of us hope, that tho Greenback party was a thing of tho past but llko Banquo's ghost, the man who wants to keep it alive and tho shado of tho dofuuet party itself will not down, but they both per sist in coming up just at a timo when nobody is thinking about either of them, at a time when for various good causes they both havo every right to slumber in tho sleep of obliv- ion. SHOULD GET OFF TIIK EARTH. Tbis,mundaue sphere is not good enough for some people, and eomo day these worthies will got tho raw material and niako one of their own, whero they can rule or ruin to their hearts' content. Wo particularly refer to that Individual or individuals who recently attempted to put tho Republican county con vention into a holo by committing it to un wise politics and by attempting tho noinina- tion of played-out officials ; and, in short, by divers tricks which were found out and nipped in the bnd by sagacious leaders and reprceon tatlvo men who can alwnys bo trusted, Later on one of those samo manipulators figured on the wrong side iu tho Gilbcrtou riot and assisted a verdant correspondent of tho Philadelphia Press in deceivlug that usually wide-awake newspaper into publish ing a gross perversion of tho truth. It will now bo in order for these great pervortors to receive tbo samo consignment that tho dovil gave to that great disturber of tho peace of Sheol. "Younginan,"said his nibs, tho Devil "we ain't used o your ways here in our do mains. Vi'u aro used to having harmony and peaco anu you aro a little too lresli In your ways to shlno as a harmouizer; so I'll give you n portion of brimstone and a few matches and you can go somewhere and set up a little hell of your own." CLKAMNO THE DECKS FOIt ACTION. Early nest week Field Maishal Whitehouse will open Republican headquarters in tho Seltz building, 114 South Centre street, tho same as those occupied by Chairman Marr fur Democratic headquarters last year, and noted for tho many vlctoiies whioh resulted from campaigns conducted therein. With his Sec retaries, Losoli and Duffy, and a corps of clerks, Sir, Whitehouse will organize an ag gressive campaign and it will keep tho oppo nents of his ticket busy to keep up with his rapid gait. It will be a clean campaign and tho dealers in mud who havo large Btocks to dispose of will be notified that they cannot find a market for their material iu tbo Seitz building, as none will be thrown from Re publican guns this year. If thero is any merit in complete organization and harmony the Republican chairman proposes to get all the benefit he can out of thoso elements. The claims of his various candidates for election will be urged to the best advantage and here and there.especially in the matter of the Con trollership, where it appears the election of the Republican candidate for a particular offlco would be best for tho community at large, it will bo shown that the election of the Democratic candidate would result iu a public calamity. Mr. Whitehouse can be trusted to luake as effective a ooutest as his resources will permit of, and when the battle is over and the smoke rites from the fUld It will re- J quire more than one basket to carry the laurels won. A STIUUIHT TIP. Tho office in which the piblie teem to take tho most interest so early is that of f 'oiituilUr. Tho importance of si ,ui ii.j.' u 1 tho ..thi-r offices combined Is uot regarded as amounting as mncll us that of tho selection of the proper pert on to fill the one office of Con troller. Tl Is interest arista from tho factthat tho mistake of electing a. man to tho oilico who would! afillate with and be of the same ilk politically at the majority of officials whoso accounts hotmust supervise can bo cosily mado easily maldo, I say, liecnuso there aro so many voteiU who aro cwlly deceived Into unnaiy stl'.uing to n bad nomination, no matter howl their business interests may bo afl'ectod. hfannily for tlieso people, and in splto of Uolr own stupidity, thero are sufllcieiit senslblo ones who regard tlio welfare elf tho county, and consequently thoir own gobd, as paramount to ovorything olso, and the) am taking hold of this Control- lership fight in tho proper way and with tho proror spirit, Tho lato Democratic county convention d sregardod tho public demand to place on its t ckot tho proper kind of man for this purcln-business office and that party now has no c alms on independent busluebs democrats, to rote for Its nomlneoand thereby ratify tho plui ider made. I stato It as a sound, sensible and li laioal proposition that tho man who has any ilmsinoss interest at stako who votes for a noitalnco for an ofilco, such as Con trailer, simply by his party c bceauso hohas been nominated buvcntiou is a blind fool. Those of us who nomination know how tho Domocratio fl for' Controller was made, audi 1 1 linw hen other worthy aspirailits for other offices in that con vontlon were liurned down,- and how it is proposed to nut tho Controller's office If the Democratic candidate is elected, aro not afraid to eomo out opdnly and boldly for tho credit ablo nomlneo Juiado by tho Republicans in thoir convention, Benjamin It.

A man representing himself as John Fitch on Wednesday hired a horso from Liveryman Maurer, of Ashland, to drlvo six miles Into tho country. Neither the man or horse has et turned up. It has siuco been learned that Fitch is a shrewd bunoo-steerer. nnd played his gamo upon William llollch, a well-to do farmer of Taylorsvlllo. Tho sharper represented himself as agent for a widow residing at Shamokin, who wanted to purchasoa farm. Ho told tho farmer ho would give him $1,000 for his farm, which tho unsuspecting farmer accepted. Fitch told tho latter ho had $5,000 iu securities In a box which ho had with him, and offered to let Bollch havo tho box If ho would glvo him $1,000 cash. Tho money was borrowed from neighbors and handed to tho smooth-tonguod swindler, who departed chuckling with glco over his great scoop. Farmer Bollch went to his homo with his apposed treasure, and with great dolight in formed his family of his groat luck. Whou tho box was opened its contents was found to consist merely of a lot of bark nnd cork. Bollch will bo compelled to mortgage his farm to almost its full valuo in order to pay back tho amount ho borrowed. Constables aro now on the track of Fitch, but It is not likely that ho will bo caught. DSK DANA'S SABSAl'AJULLA, m "THE KIND THAT CTJEK3." DUPLICATED THE SCENE.

The cir cular sets forth that there is a deficiency of sovoral hundred dollars over and ubove all re colpts of the association on account of tho financial condition of tho peopo in this sec tion of the state, and tho different coal com panies delaying the pays of their employee and also because of tho large number of at tractions at other places on tho same day with better railroad facilities.

One disinterested party said thai both clubs played poorly, but tho Shen audoah team put up a ridiculous gamo. Dur- ng tho greater rart of tho contort the Maha- noy City players had them at thoir mercy. Tho Shenandoah team must do some won derful playing this nfteruoon to temper the sentiment of tho cranks in town and if this morning's burloequo is rcpoatod somebody will suffer, Most of tho cranks woro censuring the homo management for only Bonding seven players over this morning nnd depending upon tho morcy of Mahanoy City.

Ho only accepted threo out of eight chances. The truth is there appears to be something wrong with the home team. It has not played a game for a week, yet it goes upon tho diamond and put up a gamo that any juvenllo team In tho town could beat. A short timo ago some of tho players complained that their bad playing was due a lack of practice, thoy wanted more games, that may bo the rock upon which thoy split this morn ing, but at all ovents tho cranks havo a long black mark against them. Read this summary aud reflect ; nnd think of tho halcyon days when wo walloped the Prow, Richmond and other teams over the diamond. Something has certainly gone wrong. SHENANDOAH. It. ID. I"0. A. E.
