KRKKLANR, PA., AUG I ST 29, 1880. | THE cloud <>f mystery overhanging (lie fate of the hundreds of thousands of dollars contributed for the benefit ; of the flood sufferers in the Cone- i luauglt valley should be dispelled im mediately by the person who is solely able to do so—Governor Beaver. The public have a right to know what he ; did with their money and an account j of every cent contributed should be j Riven. THIS administration is not so much "dead gone" on the old soldiers as ; some people seem to think. An illus tration of this fact was seen last week s when Postmaster Quigley of Miners' Mills was removed from office because ; he was a Democrat, and in his stead was appointed a man who was quietly enjoying life under Queen Victoria when Mr. Quigley was lighting for the country. CHICAGO'S desire to eclipse Brooklyn, and possibly Philadelphia, in the next census, is becoming ridiculous. It began by annexing the whole northern | portion of the state and calling it Chicago, although the St. Louis papers claim some of the people now living within the city limits have never been nearer than twenty miles of the city proper. But that causes no uneasiness to the average Chica goan, who will sacrifice almost every thing to make the Lake City second in population next year. WE knew that Harrison's adminis tration was not very well received by the people of this county, but to think that the Republicans, in convention assembled, would cut it off without a word of approval is more than the fol lowers of Jefferson and Jackson could ever expect. The protection harangue is also conspicuous by its absence from the resolutions. Mark the dif ference that will exist between their milk-and-water sentiments and the bold and fearless demands Democracy will fling to the breeze next Tuesday. They won't forget Harrison 1 FHOM the reports of the proceedings of the state anil county conventions held recently the work begun by the National Democratic Convention last year is not to bo relaxed. The cause of tariff reform anil a pure ballot is receiving an emphatic endorsement by Democrats everywhere. The G. O. P. conventions still proclaim that the Republican is the great and only party of reform and good morals, and yet .they refuse to assist the greatest reform of the age. Inconsistency and Republicanism always did go hand in hand, brazenly marching along in "blocks of five." THE Easton Cull hit the nail squarely on the head when it said: Not a week passes that we arc not asked why we haven't lampooned some individual who has made himself un pleasantly conspicuous. In nine cases out of ten if the grumbler had been in the same predicament he or some friend of his would have waited upon us with the polite request "Please keep that little trouble of mine out of the paper." It's all very nice to seo someone else get rapped in the newspapers, but w hen it comes homo how eager we are to avoid it. There don't seem to be much charity for the unfortunate in this Christian city- THE biggest game of bluff Harrison & Co. has yet tried was the order sent by Postmaster General Wanamaker to President Green of the Western Union, notifying the latter that nil government despatches sent hereafter would be paid for at the rate of one mill per word, instead of one cent per word, which is the present rate. The government has the privilege of fixing its own telegraph tolls, and the reduc tion to one mill per word caused great astonishment throughout the country. However, President Green returned a prompt protest against any such action and Wanamaker quietly re scinded his order. It is presumed that the campaign book at the G. G. I'. national headquarters was ex amined ami the Western Union's check for $ found: hence the cowardly backdown. THE Republican platforms of Ohio, Pennsylvania, lowa and Virginia say not a word about civil service reform. Within the last three or four years Republican conventions in those states have passed buncombe resolutions in favor of that reform. The platform of the Republican National Convention of 1888 had some very edifying re marks upon the subject, but of course all this was mere bait for votes. As soon as the Republicans got control of the government again their pretended interest in civil reform had a decline of about per cent. As a means of bothering and hampering Democratic officials, civil service reform had its uses. It was worth while to seem to encourage it and to affect a pious hor ror at the sad and scandalous disre gard for it shown by the wicked Democrats, but as soon as the Rcpub lican administration came into power the case was changed. Since then the Republicans have had no use for civil service reform. Not us Hluc-lt as We're Fainted. I The frequent allusions of newspapers I and people situated outside of the por tion of Pennsylvania known as the "coal regions" proves that the once prevailing impression as to the character of this section has not yet been entirely elimi nated. No sooner is a murder or crime of any kind committed than exaggerated accounts of the same are sent broadcast throughout the country. It matters not whether the deed was done at the north ern extremity of Lackawanna County or on the borders of Dauphin it is at once | attributed to that "uncivilized and law less territory" known as the "coal re ! gions." While no objections could pos | sibly be made against the chronicling of such matters, when truthful, yet the manner in which they are published cannot but help lowering the inhabitants of the "coal regions" in the estimation of those not acquainted with the whole facts. "When it is remembered that the "coal regions" extend diagonally across one-half the state, embracing several j counties with a total population of more than 700,000, it can be seen at a glance the injustice done by crediting every i misdemeanor that occurs within such limits in the same sense as if it happened ! in any certain town. An illustration of i this huddling together of one-fourth of the state's crimes was shown last week by a Philadelphia penny-a-liner, who considered it his bounden duty to write up the results of a general pay-day in the "coal regions." Imagination was never given a wider scope and a few drunken quarrels in <'arbondale, Ply mouth and Shenandoah was sufficient material for the writer to work upon and describe the "terrible monthly scenes" to be witnessed in the "coal regions." It might be considered ludicrous were it not for the effect such reports produce upon the minds of readers, who are apt to judge all by the few persons held up to their view. Had the writer of the article referred to feel inclined to walk around the block from his office lie could have seen sights that would make the | most hardened resident of the '"coal regions" blush with shame. Compari , sons, however, are odious, and it is not I necessary to produce them. There prob | ably was a time when this part of the ■ state deserved the condemnation it re- | ceivcd, but that time is long since past. Statistics taken from the courts of the | "coal regions" will prove that the law-1 lessness reported to exist here can be surpassed by any other portion of the country containing the same number of 1 l'COplc. Tlif Sealskin Monopoly. Nearly twenty years ago, through the lie publican congress and president who had control of the government then, a corporation obtained the exclusive right of seal fishing in Alaskan waters. The time limit of this monopoly will soon expire and it is intended to request con ' gross to renew the lease for twenty years ' longer. It is pertinent to ask why this should he done. Why should the government grant a monopoly of seal fishing over thousands of miles of coast to one body of men to the exclusion of all other men? Why should it not, with equal propriety, grant a monopoly of cod j fishing, or grouse shooting, or bear hunt ing? The plea is that the seals must be protected from extermination. Very well. Lot the government protect them as governments protect fish and other game, not by confining the right to kill | them to a single corporate monopoly, but by forbidding anybody to kill them dur ing each year's close season, and making the close season sufficiently long to afford the necessary security against extermi nation. The monopoly device is unjust, tyrannical and corrupting. It is unjust i to all citizens who desire to engage in the business, but are forbidden to do so. It is oppressive to all purchasers of the I product, compelling them to buy of men - exempt from competition. It sets up a f vested interest to buy the privileges it wants. Congress should make an end of I this granting of class privilege by legis ' lativc enactment, but it is more than we can expect while Republican rule is dominant. Wioiiif, Another reason why I am willing to drop the pen and retire is the litter hopelessness of such a contest. In our government of parties a canvass of education is a farce. The American citizen lias no turn for study and no time for thought. In the conquest of a continent we have come to be del vers in dust. A race of shopkeepers, said the groat Napoleon, makes a nation of thieves. We turn from an abstract, enconomic subject in patient disgust to look lovingly on a locomotive, or to send orders through the telegraph or tele phone for a consignment of eggs and potatoes. We can not be made to recog nize the fact that all the woes that have afflicted humanity for a thousand years of abuse iu Europe are being rapidly concentrated here. We mouth at times —mainly on the Fourth of July—about our free institutions, in certain pet phrases, forgetting that all the wretched ness and sin afflicting humanity come from the unequal distribution of property. We can have all our free institutions ' intact and yet see the foul spawn of millionaires hatched into sharks, while the masses live only to be fed upon. Time was, within the memory of living men, when we had two millionares to wonder at, and deaths from starvation 4 and suicides from despair were unknown. I* Indeed, we can have these free institu- I tions, as the fathers gave them to us, , 1 and have them sanction these very evils. ■ A hundred and sixty thousand miles of . railroads, distributing the entire products ; of the country, are undertho control and , literally the ownership of less than sixty families, and this fearful monopoly comes from and depends upon the fran -1 shisc given by the government. Our telegraph system belongs to one man. r The amount of money paid over to pri ) vatc interests and taken yearly from the ■' masses is large enough yearly to liquidate j the national dobl. This takes no account of trusts, that cover all we eat, wear ami . use as clothing or shelter, for they have grown up outside and in defiance of law. Legalized wrong is our great enemy, for we suffer more from the power of abuse than in the abuse of power. A wrong one recognized by law destroys the foundation of the very power to which we must appeal for a remedy.— Don Piatt's Retiring Essay, Protection at Home. We needn't inquire into the results of the protective tariff away down East, or in other states, for we have it right here in this and adjoining counties. With free trade for raw silk we have extensive and flourishing siik mills at Mauch Chunk, Weatherly, Calasauqua, Allen town, Bethlehem and Stroudsburg, cm ploying probably 2500 to 3000 hands and paying over half a million dollars a year in wages. With high tariff tax on raw wool we have not even as much as the smallest kind or semblance of a woolen mill within fifty miles of the Lehigh ; Valley, whilst the demand for woolen goods is twenty times as much as the demand for silk goods! Who else than a natural fool or a pitiful party bigot can \ stand up before the public to be counted | in favor of such protection as the kind we have under the existing monopoly j and trust system? But, there are men of respectability, who can read and j write, and who wear good clothes, and | know that twice two makes four —even business men, church-goers and leaders j of society, who insist upon it that the i tariff as it exists "protects labor, builds up home markets, stimulates business and industries" and overwhelms the people with prosperity and plenty! They believe it all because the G. O. P. bosses, manipulators and office-brokers tell tliem so! —Mauch Chunk Democrat. Correspondence From the Cnpltiil. WASHINGTON, August 27, 1889. The Speakership contest is beginning ! to make itself heard in the lobbies of the Capitol and about tlio hotels, and the j MeKinley statisticians are beginning to baul out a few figures themselves. The expectation that Pennsylvania would be almost solid ton man litis been blighted by the discovery that the prevailing political influence in the State is for Reed. It is nevertheless assumed that! three Pennsylvania Republicans will vote for the Stark County Napoleon, j The trio embraces Judge Kelley, John j Dalzell, and the "Old Iron Grey of Somerset," Edward Scull. Kelley is presumed to believe that his only chance of securing the chairmanship of the \ Ways and Means Committee is by the election of MeKinley. He can hardly hope for this chairmanship if a Western ! candidate is the Speaker. If Reed is male Speaker, MeKinley is almost certain to get the coveted chairmanship, whereas if MeKinley is chosen liccd wilt he restored to his old place as chairman of the Judiciary Committee, leaving the way open for Kelloy's appointment as a successor to Roger Q. Mills, as tariff manager. Now for the figures. Ohio is put down :as solid with sixteen votes. Ten out of the ninteen Southern Republicans added, which, with three from Minnesota, three ; from Pennsylvania, three from New- York, two from Nebraska, one from New Jersey, ami one from Indiana (T. Jr. Browne), makes a total of thirty-nine. This total is not appalling in its tnagni-; tude, but is said to represent the sure I support, with enough reasonable certain- j ties, to give MeKinley half a handl ed on I the first ballot. This is not a had show- j ing if a half dozen candidates are pre sented to the caucus, for at the outside it | will require only eighty-five to nominate ; and possibly less. CONTESTED SEATS. Another of the contested election eases \ is grinding away at tile Capitol. It is | I the Fourth West Virginia. The certill-1 j eate is held by Hon. J. M. Jackson, and I his opponent is Hon. Charles B. .Smith, "| of Purkcrsburg. But three votes stand ! between Mr. Jackson's victory and Mr. s ' Smith's defeat—the same number which ] separates the Republicans from the : Democrats in the coming Congress. "About the contest for my seat?" said Judge Jackson in the lobby of the I r National last evening, "Mr. Smith and i j. have got in all our testimony, and I feel entirely confident of the safety of my : seat, but I want it to lie decided fairly and squarely before Congress. It is a | little too early to say much about the House. Undoubtedly the Republicans . will try to change the rules and seat all their contestants early in the session. I To do this it will lie necessary to have j an audaciour man in the chair. Neither j Cannon nor MeKinley can tie relied upon j | to do the unconstitutional acts, therefore [ I believe that Reed will he made | Speaker. He is hold enough to declare I a quorum, as did Keifer, by saying that j ' I he sees one present, whether u quorum j I votes or not. The Democrats should act J | entirely on the defensive and insist that ] matters shall take their accustomed I course and that the old rules shall J govern. But then the now States are j yet to he heard from. Several Republi- j j can members are already /■ da combat. j j. j We had better wait." . I TO IIUII.D UP THE NAVY, j The Secretary of the Navy lias appoint- j j ed a board who shall formulate and j report to him a general plan for building 1 up the Navy. The Secretary of War lias j also shown an interest in the subject of national defense and ordered that the , | vast useless possessions of the War I)c- j . J partment lie disposed of and turned into 1 f j something available for modern lighting ! II purposes. All this is encouraging and I I there appears to he aroused a degree of • ] interest in She subject of national ile- j | fense. It is a good proposition to sell j all our useless Htult. Let us see what American ingenuity lias done. The problem of coast defenses is especially an important one, ami it idiould be attended to at once.

J / DON'T STINT YOUR STOMACH- By Killiiik Kuougli Vim liidreane Your CliaiiceH of (ioml Health, A physician, writing on the food necessary to give strength and susten ance, says that if a person uses up his brain faster than he makes it he soon becomes uervous and irritable. If he does not assimliate enougli food to • supply its demands his mind is sure to j become weak. The healthiest and ; strongest individuals, even should cat a far greater proportion of moat than j of vegetable food. Beef should be | taken as the standard meat It answers j every purpose of the system. Veal and pork are not as easily digested. Pork, so far as its composition goes, is an excellent food for nervous persons, but it is not readily digested. Yet, in the army, we used to think nothing better for the wounded men than bacon. As a rule, salt meat is not adapted to the requirements of the nervous individual, as nutrious juices to a great extent go into the brine. The llesh of wild birds is moro ten der and moro readily digested than that of domestic oues. This is ac- , counted for by the greater amount of exercise they take, thereby renewing their llesh more rapidly and making it younger than that of birds which i lead a more quiet life. This is a sug gestion that might be of benefit to women of sedentary habits who are desirous of prolonging an appearance of youth. Fish of all kinds is a good food for the nervously inclined. A notion has been prevalent that many persons injure their digestion by eating too much. The fact is that most people don't eat enough. There are moro people killed every year by insuiliciency of nourishment than by ! overloading their stomachs. Many of those who do eat a sullieieut quantity are prevented by disease from digest ing enough for the economy of their 1 systems. The very lirst thing for any one to do who has exhausted himself by meutal work or who has been born i weak and irritable is to furnish his brain with sufficient nourishment to either repair the damage it has sus tained or to build it iuto strong, healthy condition. People in this con dition usually suffer from nervous dyspepsia. Their stomachs are un able to perform the labor of assimila tion. Owing to the deficient nerve ! power of the individual the food lies in the stomach unacted upon by the gastric juice because there is none or the quantity is insufficient to have any power. Food, instead of helping to renew the body, and the nervous sys tem with the rest, undergoes fermonta- 1 tion, and the bodyrmd brain it should nourish may starve. The person is in 1 worse state than if the food had not been taken, for the fermentation gener ates acids and gas. Nervous individuals may derive all the fat the}* need from sugar and starch. It is better, however, for those with weak digestive organs, or whoso nerves are in a highly sensitive state, to get it from the animal kingdom than compel their enfeebled stomachs, in testines and pancreas to create it out of these articles. Good bread, sweet butter and meat are the best foods for the nerves. People troubled with insomnia, nervous starting from sleep and sensa tions of falling, can often be cured by limiting themselves to a diet of milk alone for a time. An adult should take a pint for a meal, and take four meals daily. People with weakened nerves require, usually, a larger quantity of water than those whose brains and nerves are strong. It aids in the diges tion of food by making it soluble, and seems to have a direct tonic effect. With proper eating and drinking we should have fewer broken down, nervous wrecks, and far more vigorous intellects. The present human species can not eliminate llesh from its food : and amount to a row of pins. The fancy that nothing but vegetables should be eaten is apt to overtake 1 everyoue somewhere in life. It is due to some disorganization, and usually passes away with the disturbance thai j creates it. Miseries of High Intel Mrs. Westend—Oh, such a time as I do have with nurses. I've discharged i three this week for not keeping the I children quiet, and it hasn't done a bit of good. Mrs. Tiptop—l notice the nob from the nursery is terrible. Well, have the same trouble, and my iband, ! who is getting deaf, actun refuses to be treated for it. I can't ,ee what sort of creatures these child's nurses can be. They don't seem to have a bit of sense. I aclully caught one buying cheap candy with her own money to keep the iittle angels quiet. Just think of the impudence of the thing—putting cheap candy into the delicate stomachs of my children. Well, I said I'd discharge her if she repeated that off ense, and what do you suppose she did next? Why, when ; they began to yell and kick at her for not buying them a locomotive and cars big enough to ride iu she actually threatened to have their father whip them, just as if she. a common, iguo- j rant nurse, had a right to keep their j father, my husband, at her beck and j call. No wonder the children laughed, ! and then yelled louder than ever, j Even they could sec the effrontery of | the thing. Mrs. Western!— Well, I'd send her living. Dear me! What a racket! Hark! Ah! I understand it now. That miserable creature who calls herself a nurse is trying to stand little Billy in the corner for nothing. Isu'titawful? Now, if .she hits him I'll just send for the police—l just will. I shan't be con tented with a simple discharge. It's high time these creatures were taught a lesson. Mrs. Tiptop—l think so, too. No wonder the little dears learn to yell and kick aud bite when they have such examples set them. They see it's a j mere question of physical strength— brute force—of course they do. Why don't these nurses keep the children amused? That's what they aro hired to do. Well, I must hurry, for I have an engagement at the intelligence office for this hour. I want if possible to get a nurse to replace the one I have now. Since dear little Bobby kicked her shins black and blue she has hated him 1 and it almost breaks my heartgto hear the poor little fellow c ry. — PhUadelphia Record. An Insulted Man. !

An Australian l)lnmnnil Hunter Begin ning Work in Amador. "Just, take a look at this bigdiamond," remarked Henry Vidol, the mining superintendent of Amador, to a repre sentative of the San Francisco Ex ' amincr. Mr. Videl exhibited in a paper taken from his vest pocket three jnagnilieont i clear white stones. Pointing his long I index linger to the largest of the three, ' which seemed half the size of a big hazelnut, ho added: "Now where do you suppose I got that? Nowhere else than on Dry Creek, up iu Amador County, and, by the way, do you know that there is a genuine diamond country up there? "There are also diamonds found on tlie Feather River, in the vicinity of Cherokee. There are not many peo ple who know this. Nine people out of Leu, perhaps, in California, if you were to ask them whether or not there were any diamonds in this State, would say: 'Of course not; there are no dia monds to speak of this side of Capo Town.' All the same they will he mis taken. I "About this place of Cherokee which I speak of as many as sixty or seventy diamonds have been found in the course gravel. About as many have been found at Volcano, on Dry Creek. There there is a peculiar conglomerate that has gold in it, and in this con glomerate, if you take a glass, you can see pulverized diamonds in consider able quantities." "Are these good diamonds?" was asked. "Well, you see what these are. They have been pronounced by experts equal to the average taken out of Cape Town. These experts, however, who have examined the ground up there aro of the opinion that these diamonds liavo been brought from a distance. Just where is the question. All the country is tossed aud turned up. , Ancient rivers, mountains, and valleys liavo been tipped and twisted at ail angles and coated over in many places with lava. "Both the points I speak of lie only a short distance from the western base of the Sierra Nevada Mountains. Whether high in the peaks of the Sierras there are better and more dia monds cannot now be told. Whether practical diamond-hunters will ere long go to Cherokee aud Volcano and make a business of digging for dia monds, however, is, I think, another matter. Too many have already been found to let the Country go by default. "1 am an old resident of Amador and have watched the progress of things there since the first diamonds were found ten years ago. I have al ways said that diamond-mining would become a business iu California, and now I am backed up by the arrival of Donald MaePhersou from Australia. MaePherson has been miuing for dia monds at the Antipodes, and he is now ou Dry Creek siziug up the situa tion. "There are two or three other Australians with him. They have been experimenting with the conglomerate, and while they have kept pretty quiet it is understood that they are well pleased wilh their investigations. They have brought live acres of ground, and it is said that within a month or two they will begin work there with quite a force of men. I predict that they will find diamonds in sufficient quantities to handsomely pay them, and that within a year diamond-mining will bo a business in Amador and Butte Counties." The Oyster. The oyster is uot quite the laziest animill known, but lie is very nearly so. and he affords a striking illustra tion of the degeneracy that comes from indolence, since he lias gradually lost by disguise nearly all lus "faculties" 1 except that of choosing and digesting his food. He looks like an inert and unorgauized mass of jelly, but in fact lie has a complete animal organization, including heart, liver, lungs, mouth and stomach, and something that an swers for eyes and a thousand or more fibrous anus. But all his orgaus seem calculated to serve the one general purpose of feeding and nourishing the oyster — and perpetuating his race. , The latter aim is accomplished by means of eggs, of which a female oys ter lays from 1,000,000 to 3,000,000 in a season. The eggs, called "spat" by the oystermen, are expelled from the ' shell in a glutinous liquid which holds them together in masses called "white 1 spat." The spat becomes impregnated while in the water, and the eggs soon hatch. In its earliest infancy the little oj'ster is very lively aud swims about near the surface of the water. He is nearly as trausluceut as the water it self, hut he undergoes perils of every description and the millions aro much diminished before his career is fairly started. After swimming aboift a short timo ho sinks to the bottom of the water where he attaches himself to some hard substance—a stone or an oyster shell—and begius to be an oys ter indeed as well iu truth. Ho never ! migrates after this, but coutinues to grow, rapidly at first and very slowlv afterward, for a period variously esti mated. The oyster in the market is usually live or six years old.— Good Housekeeping. Eugenie.
