" The eminent ecclesiastic has exactly described popular feeling In Shenandoah at this particular time Tna sad bereavement that lias fallen the Ornnt family elicits the sympathy of our en tire community. Death has claimed two sons prominent in husiueassnil other channels within a very short period. The death of Lewis Grant, after a long illness, was indeed a severe blow to bis fond mother. The de ceased was born in Sheuaudoab ; educated at Lafayette, and graduating with high honor. Mr. Grant was' very succestful in busiuess pursuits, and his career was just about opeued when he was taken ill. It is ludeod a severe loss to the family, while the public mourns the departure of one of its highly honored and public-spirited citizens. MR. SCHEME'S BILL. Kepreseutative Fus. Sclirink, of the Fourth district, will introduce an important bill in the House as soon as the committees are named. The bill is to leagalize primary elections and to nominate state and county ofHiysroiy a direct vote of the people. The measure provide isjized primary elections and to nominate candidates for various offices ou the third Tueiiay of August between the hours of 2 ami 7. These primary elections are toS be called "nominating elections" and dyery candi date must file a certificate) with the Secretary of the Commonwealth or tho County Commissioners announcing his in tention of becoming a candidate. In tho one caio it muni be filed thirty days befuro the primaries and on the other twenty days be fore the primaries. Tho County Commis sioners ar authorized to print tho ballots and to group the names of candidates for each office under seperate headings. Tho candidates are required to pay the ex penses for printing, etc. Tho names of Demo cratic candidates are to be voted for at the same time, but not upon the samo ballot as the Itepublicans. All tho details are vary much on the order of the present ballot now as applitd to general elections. National delegates end Congressmen aru elected in tho same" way, thus breaking up the conferee system. Severe tines and punishments are prescribed for violations of the act. The as sessments to be paid by candidates to defray expenses of the nominating elections are de fined in the bill as follows : Presidential electors, $25 ; Governor, $1000 ; Lieutenant-Governor, State Treasurer and Secretary of Internal Allaire, foOO each ; Auditor General, f 100 ; Judges of Superior and Supreme Courts, $1000 each. The as sessment of candidates for county offices varies according to tho population of the counties in which they reside. For Phila delphia the assessment is lixed at 5 per cent of the salary of the official fur one year. Tic provisions of the bill governing the primary election for municipal ollices havo not yet been completed. THE CITIZENS PRIMARIES. The Citizens Standing Commutes, on Tues day evening, made nil necessary preparations for holding the primaries on the 28th iui-t. The registration of candidates seeking nomination by the party closed on thut date. The names of those seeking the suH'rage of the people have appeared in these columns, and from now until Thursday the paity voters will he appealed to by friends of the respective candidate, and their good and bod qualities, as public officials, will be dis cussed and commented upon by the voters. The people have sufficient time in which to determine their choice, and it is to be hoped their decision will be in the interest of good government and faithful public. servants. Th Herald will continue to pursue the same policy that has characterized its course so far in the contest that is, to allow the voters to make their own choice. We have no favorites to reward nor euemles to punish. All the aspirants are friends of ours, and the race is an open one. Our columns are al ways open for the expression of an opinion by our large circle of readers, believing that such expressions redown to the public weal. In common with all good citisens, we believe that the (jualilicatioaa of all candidates should be well considered, and that personal likes and dislikes should be a secondary con sideration. The Citizens Yeters Iiave no reason to omplaiu because of a want of available terial to make good nominations. Those g to borough and ward positions will oi.ikly with any that have yet uffiageiof the people of Slien- i respects, their qualiflca Iho average. Kspsciully is s t lie borough contests are l M 111 111 MIICIKl 4 VUV quite a mi uiher of the most prominent and influential ulicus have come to the front nod offered their services in behalf of the people. It is necessary, in order that worthy nominations are made, that the oltiteus parti cipate iu the primary elections. It is at the nominating conventions and primary elec tions where the first blow must be struck for good government, in naming faithful and competent nu n fur the several offices. This spirit should tliarseterise the contest within the rank of both puities. If this is doue, there need be little apprelu nsion or fear that the interests of the taxpayers will be faithfully guarded. State and national issues am obliterated, or should be, and questions of local i hi.u ter take their place -tn borough and ton nsliip toutest. Fitness for the position is ths nnn essential that should guide tho voter in casting his ballot. It is to ! hoped that the contests fur tha nominations between the several candidates will ! cuniluctril iu a prnpor manner to ths ond that the unsuccessful aspirants way have no grievances. As w have previously stated, tho Hll,n has On favorites ths nominees will be our candidates, no nmtu-i who thry are, and will twelve the loyal sup port due them from the party pre s. The outlook for success, at the polls was never brighter ; th party is United for a struggle with the divided Democracy, and there (s little doubt that the Utiaeas party will record a msgniflouut victory on Hie 16th of February.

Prltchard was yesterday elected to suc ceed himself in the United States senate by the legislature assembled in joint ses sion. Mr. Prltchurd received 88 votes; Thompson (Pup.), 43; Doughton (Dein.),D3. There was six members not voting. Eight een Populists voted for Prltchard, and one Democrat voted for Thompson. After the result had boon deolnrod Mr. Pritchnrd entered the ohambor, accom panied by Governor Hussell and Congress man Skinner. All three made speeches, Pritchnrd saying that he stood on tho sil ver question where ho stood two years ago. Mr. Skinner said his course had been taken for the good of -the Populist party, and he did not see how uuy harm could come to it in electing a man who was pledged to free silver. Senator Butler was in the Populist cau cus last night, which met for the purpose of mapping out legislation. It is thought by some that the bitter feelings aroused during tbe contest will result in the ces sation of further oo-operatlon, both dur ing the session of the legislature and af terward, between the regular Populists and tho supporters of Prltchard. It looks as if entirely new lines may be drawn as one of the results of Butler's defeat. Good Is essential to health.

Brilliant minds, waiving fur the time the cares of government, abandon themselves to the gay whirl of the social world. ICeceptions, din ners, hulls follow each othor with hewilder iag rapidity. The state of ths Cuban questios and tho possibilities of Congressional action is also claiming attention, and the ntrer-uylng In terest which attaches to tho many depart ments of the Gocrnment is attracting its usual number of visitors.

Pneumonia, catarrh, chronic bronchitis, if not consumption, invariably result from a neglected cold, It is surprising too, that bad colds aro so often neglected when one remembers how easily and at what little expense they may bs tursd. Chain, berlaln's Cough liemsdy is always prompt aud effectual, and costs but a trifle; 26 or 80 cents is a trifle as compared with the disas trous effects of a neglected oold. Mr. Abner Mercer, of Dilworthtown, Chester County, Pa , in speaking of this remedy, said : "Bouie tlme ago I had a bad cold and cough. I tried almost everything.

IiL'VIiU 11UOS., Ltd., New York. Tours tn Florida. No district In America presents, daring the Winter season, so many varied attractions n the State of Florida. Besides its delightfu' olitnate, which to one escaping fmm the cold and unhealthful changes of tho North seem. almostctheieal, it is pre-eminently a land i.f sport and pleasure, Along its eleven hundred miles of sslt-water coast and in its twelve h u nd red fresh-water lakes are fish of almobi every conceivable variety, from the migr.i tory tribes common to Northern waters to the tarpon, pompano, and others of a more tropical character. Nowhere in all our broad land can the angler find a greater variety ol game or better sport. Here also the most enthusiastic hunter finds satiety. Deer, turkeys, bears, panthers, and wild cats roam at largo through the mori sparsely settled regions, while birds of all kinds may be found iu abundance through out tho State. The more novel sport of al ligator and manatee hunting may also lie in dulged iu by the more adventurous tourist With its matchless climsto, Its orange groves, its rivers and lakes, its boating am bathing, its fishing and hunting, and it extensive forests, Florida presents unrivslei attractions for the valetudinarian, tho lovei of nature, the sportsman and the explorer. To this attractive suite the Pennsylvania lluilrimd Company has arrauged four personally-conducted tours during tho season of 1807, leaving by special train January 20, February 0 and 23, and March 0.
