Tun Itoptibllcnns of Shenandoah will likely hsio Honielhing to my as to who shall bo on the ticketus u representative of till, town, notwithstanding tho presumption of n county Nit paper. IiBVi I'. Morton, tho present tiovernor of Now York, Is an avowed candidate for tho presidency. His friends nro already claim ing 2.18 votes for their fuvorito in the con vention. Pennsylvania is included in tho list with (HI votes. Wo think the New York tiovemor's friends arc counting their chicken lwforo they are hatched. A qUIXtion that appears pertinent just now, in view of tho investigation to he in augurated by Solicitor Whitehouse, of tho almshouse, of tho mismanagement of that institution, is why was it delayed until a few days lioforo tho appointments are mado? The public will encnurago any movement tending to instigate reforms in that locality, hut it looks like there's a "nigger in the wood pile." The opinion of Attorney (icncr.il Mc cormick, in declaring thatlifoinsuraneodoes not represent moneyed capital and cannot bo included in the list of taxable subjects, will Iks phasing news to those of our readers who have their lives insured and are not willing to pay a state tax upon the same. When tho Auditor General tent out assessors' blanks to tho County Commissioners and directed that retnrns be made of all policies of life insurance, under a protest from holders of these policies and tho insurance companies the question was referred to tho Attorney General for his decision. Til r. suggestion has been made that Ponn- cvK.onio n,1r.t ll.n nl.tft ,la i.i 1 in inn f a United States Senator to succeed ,T. Donald Cameron. When tho delegates to the next state convention tiro chosen let the names of tho various candidates for Senator bo submitted to tho people and instructions voted at tho primaries in every county in tho -fltate, tho candidates subsequently placed in regular nomination in tho convention and tho ono receiving tho largest number of votes declared tho caucus nominee. This is the way ex-Governor Koraker, of Ohio, was .chosen to succeed Senator llrice. Tho plan is it novel ono, and it gives every Republican voter tho opportunity to express his choieo for this high ollico and besides is tho means if averting contests of a disgraceful and nil seemly character so often characteristic of Legislatures in electing United States rtators. THE PRESIDENTIAL RACE. The Presidential possibilities are narrowing down to a very few. Harrison is practically out of tho race. Itecd is strong in New lln land and will have a solid delegation from that section. Tho prevalent impression that (Juay and Piatt both favor the Portland giant .gives him a big send oil' witli professional politicians. Tho announced candidacy of Governor Morton is looked upon as more of a compliment to His Excellency than any thing else, nnd will bo tho means of keeping tho other candidates from dividing tho vole of that state. When tho proper tlmo arrives to uncovor New York's real choieo will bo known, nnd his name is 1'eed. McKiuley has a strong following with tho masses, and his conspicuous position regarding Protection makes him at all times a formidable candi date. Allison stands in a position to profit by any antagonism between Jteed and Mc ICinloy that will constrain conservative delegate) to took a perfectly available man as tho compromise candidate. Lincoln is but yet a name honored by tho immortal associa tions clustering around tho martyred first Priwidontof tho party. Tho late elections give us a Republican Governor in New Jersey, Marylaud and Kentucky, bo wo will look to the names of Griggs, Lowndes and Hradley as Vlco Presidential possibilities. An early convention places us already within sound of the guns that will bo called into action for uso against the common onoray, and victory is in tho air. Tjik Reading reorganization plan has been iwucd, and as it is in tho ittorost of tho general mortgago tho preference bonds and stockholders aro heavily assessed. As tho case stands at present, tho company having failed to pay tho iutcrcst on the general mortgago bonds that interest is in position to sell out tho property to satisfy their claims, and anything given the preference bond holders and stockholders Is In tho nature of a gratuity. While the plan is no doubt a drastic ono for them, it is about nil they can expect. Tho new plan will effect a reduction in fixed chargos of about $717,000, although tho oapltallsttloti will ho somowhat increased, and tho incronso is not such as to compel payment of niiything until it is earned. It is to bo hoped that tho prtscnt scheme will bo of permanent benefit and not like tho Corbln schemoof 1887, merely a make-shift temporarily. NOVELTIES AT THE STORES. Tho Slock of Holiday Attractions Mom Numerous Than Kvcr. Grim poverty may lurk in its squalid dens, and there may be hundreds of unfortunates who go to bod cold nnd hungry every night, but this skeleton does not obtrude itself on tho happy, gorgeous panorama that Is pre sented on tho ttrcota of town on which tho business places aro located. Tho window displays are unparalleled in their wealth and variety. Every tasto and every purso is con sulted. Some of them nro exceedingly novel. Ono of tho most attractive sights is afforded by tho windows of Max Schmidt, on North juatn street, it is a roast lor tho eyes and close by, in tho window of Waslcy's drug store, Is found an amusing novelty in the form of frogs mado of cotton engaged in a gamo of foot hall beforo an audience mado up of similar figures. Tho exhibit at lioldcrman's jewelry store is a gorgeous ono and at Hooks & Brown's stationery store tho display in silk, satin, velvet, celluloid, ivory, aluminum, Bilvcr and gold is dazzling. Smokers and members of their families will find tho display at Kalbach's and Daniel & Dodson's cigar stores worth a careful InsicctIou, and nt Strousn's jewelry storo it would seem tho wealth of tho country had been collected. Girvin's is a groat placo for sightseeing. Tho Christmas presents for children nnd in the household lino chal lenges enumeration. Morgan's liazar is also a marvelous placo in the juvenile lino and may well be called a "toy tcniplo " Tho Pittsburg Novelty storo also offers a field for rellectlon. M. F. Malcy and E. H. Ilrumm make elaborate displays of unique designs in jewelry. Iko Orkin and K. Duell, tho jewelers, nro also out with I holiday displays that help to mako tho panorama pleasing to tho eye. Here and there aro sandwiched displays of less glitter ing, but no less important wearing apparel, and when you are out seeing tho sights don't fail to take a glimpsont the windows of L. J. Wilkinson, P. J. Gaugban, P. J. Monaghan. It. F. Gill, N. J. Owens and J. J. Prico. The firms of J. P. Williams & Son and O'Neill Uros. are also important exhibitors and anyono contemplating making presents of furniture, organs or pianos should not overlook these two stores. For a snappy, breezy and bright display of gents' furnish ing goods for the holidays Max Lovit's windows aro right up to the mark and Portz & liros. display of clothing and furnishing goods is excellent. At Mrs. Hyde's, Mrs. .1. J. Kelly's, Miss Morrison's and Miss Senior's millinery stores the ladies will find all the latest and most novel styles and a glimpse at the l aetory Shoo Store windows will show a raro btock for feet for both ladies and gentlemen. Of courso everybody will want some cologne for the holiday season. Tho Shenandoah Drug Store is making nspecialty in that lino this season. The kirlin, Gruhlor, Wasley and Hagcnbuch drug stores nro also out with lino lines. A night can ho very pleasantly and enjoyably spent in viewing tho many displays and may help many to make up their minds as to what they "will buy for Christinas."
