Saul of Tarsus was as hard a case as
Colonel Ingorsoll.
Schlatteii says that his power is contained
in a copper rod. Tho "copper's" club is also
a rather powerful instrument.
Senatoh VooitUEKB has introduced a bill
defining contempt of court, granting the
Tight of appeal to the Supremo Court. A

it been a law Debbs' appeal would have gono

The Republican club that is organized for
campaign purposes is very well in its way,
ut tho club that is founded on a permanent
basis is far better. There is plenty to do for
Mich clubs as the Republican League all tho
year around. They should bo the friendly
ulllcs of every movement intended to
promote the moral and material well being of
tho town, county and state. Especially at
this time, on the eveof an important borough
election, should tho meetings be well
attended.
Skvkhal ambitious Republicans arc al
ready laying their plans to secure tho
nomination of County Commissioner. It is
expected that a great scramble will be made
for this office, with its increased salary and
additional perquesitcs. At present the salary
of Commissioner is $1,500, but tho ones to be
chosen next fall will reccivo tho snug little
Mim of t2,500 for serving the people. It is
nomcwhat early for discussion of this nature
but nevertheless there is already considerable
iniict work being done by several would-bo
candidates. It is rumored that a Shenandoah
Republican is being groomed for tho position
This week will witness tho elevation to :
cardinalato of Mgr. Satolii, tho Papal dele
gate to tho Roman Catholic church in tho
United States, and it is another reminder of
tho growing recognition granted to this
country of late years by tho Holy Sec.
Cardinal Gibbons fills tho ofllec of American
Cardinal with dignity and ability, and no
no doubts that Satolii will bo an ornament
to tho body of scholary men who ubsist in
preserving tho inflnenco of tho Vatican. It
is true Satolii is not an American, but ho has
been in this country long enough to become
imbued with tho spirit of our institutions,
and his elevation is a tributo to tho faithful
in the United States.
In an address at tho Atlanta Exposition
-Senator Tillman, of South Carolina, bewailed
tho fact that in tho last thirty years tho
United States Government had paid in
pensions ?1, 800,000,000, and or this sum
050, 000,000 was raid to tho people in tho
Northern States." It is to bo feared that the
"people in tho Northern States" will bo com
pelled to plead guilty to this indictment. It
is unfortunate, no doubt, that of this vast
sum so little has gone to tho peoplo south of
Mason and Dixon's line. But the Palmetto
Senator should not forget that tho Federal
pension laws aro a triflo peculiar. They aro
intended to bo a recognition of tho services of
men who sought to savo tho Union, not who
bought to destroy it.
The action of President Cleveland in leav
ing Washington for a hunting trip the week
Congress assembles, and at a time, too, when
an important diplomatic communication like
the Salisbury reply to Secretary Olncy's
despatch upon tho Venezuela dilllculty was
dhe, is being severely criticized by statesmen
of bath parties. It is look cd upon as an ex
hibition of contempt upon tho part of tho
President for a branch of tho government
eo-ordinato with tho executive, and murmurs
of tho resentmont felt by Congressmen are
heard already. It is moro than probable the
resentment will find moro emphatic ex
pressions shortly and that his conduct in
neglecting his dutios at an important period
will bo denounced more roundly by the Re
publicans than tho membors of his own rarty
have done.
The Washington correspondent of the
"Wilkesbarro Nows-Dealcr has this to say in
rcferenco to the representative from this dls
trict : "Ono of tfce picturesque Pennsylvania
Congressmen is Hon. C. N. Bruram, from
Schuylkill. Mr. Brumm has had a rare
political history. Ho started out as a
Greenback-Labor candidate and was elected
by tho mining constituency which ie-
manded the most oxtrcme Greenback
doctrine. At that time Mr. Brumm wore
long hair, a slonchcd hat and looked like an
Indian doctor. He was a ranter on the
floor of the IIouso and much more so in tho
columns of tho Congressional Record, Fifteen
years 1ms worked a wonderful change In Mr,
Brumni. Ho Is now a sober, serious man,
has abandoned the Greenback and cheap
money 'heresies' and actually stands for a
single gold standard. Ho has developed into
a silent mau and hero, If anywhere, silenco
passes for wisdom."
