IN Maine, tlie sample prohibition
State, where prohibition has been the
law for a generation, a Judge of the
Municipal Court has just been re
moved from office by the Governor
and Council for continued drunken
iiesa.
THE great American political trick
ster and machine manipulator, David
B. Hill, says he does not favor free I
trade, but is a protectionist. Those j
journals which accused him of being I
a Presidential candidate should re j
tract. Democratic protectionists are j 1
rarer than white blackbirds. David's j |
name is Dennis as far as the White |
House is concerned. j f

IT is time the C'one/reesioiial Record 1 1
and Legislative Record were run on I I
a proper basis or abolished entirely j J
The former last year cost the tax j
payers $210,000. Isn't that just a j ~
little too much to pay for a journal
which is scarcely seen and never read |
by anybody, and which gives the most 1
inaccurate and falsified reports of J
Congress ? t
ON the Ist inst. the duty on sugar, j i
excepting a few unimportant grades, I
was removed, and that necessary ar J s
ticle took its place on the free list j ,
The immediate effect was a Dementi j s
ous drop in price, which proved be j
yond a doubt that the consumer had ] |
been robbed for many, many years, j ,
Glover's assertion that "the tariff' itt I
a tax" is once more demonstrated. j (
LET every voter in the State of j t
Pennsylvania, who is in favor of the j I
Australian system of voting, write i '
to their Senators and Representatives, j ]
asking them to vote for the Baker ! ,
Ballot bill now before the Legislature. |
Until the Constitution is changed, so '
as to eliminate the numbering clause, I
the bill before the House will serve
the purpose. It should he passed as j 1
speedily as possible.
FROM official reports it is learned
that the number of foreclosures of
farm mortgages in Kansas during the
past six months was 2,G50. Kansas
is only a fair specimen of the actual
state of affairs throughout the country.
Progress and poverty march along to
getlier with an appalling reality, and
to such an extent has this ill mated
team advanced that none but those |
who wilfully remain blind can deny |
the injustice and inequality of the j
present social condition of humanity. ;
AN effort is being made to have the I
present Legislature repeal the Sunday j
law of 1794. Those who are instru-:
mental in that direction contend that
in most sections of the State it is im- 1
possible to enforce it. While the law i
is on the statute books it should be '
enforced, otherwise repeal it. While
there is a necessity for some kind of
labor to he carried on and performed
on the Sabbath day, there can be no
excuse for business places to be kept
open on that day. Our officers here
should enforce the law, or else ask j
that it be repealed.
THE method of voting in l'ennsyl
van'a, which opens all avenues to de
bauchery and bull-dozing, will soon be
regarded by the country as a relic of
"ye olden times." State after State
is adopting the Australian system;
but the poor, patient, protected,
powerless people of Pennsylvania will
never enjoy a free and secret ballot j
until the political complexion of the j
State is changed. Why will voters
keep in power a party of corrup- ;
tionists whose broken pledges and
disregarded platforms brand them as
traitors to the Constitution and the I
best interests of the people ?
I'HE Federation Convention which
was recently in session in Sydney, New !
South Wales, lias created the Com
monwealth of Australia, and adopted
a Constitution somewhat similar to
that of the United States. The chief
executive of the Federation is to be
known as the Governor General, and
to be appointed by the Queen. By
this slender tie is the connection with
the mother country to he maintained.
Aet this is merely formal; for no one
doubts that sooner or later there will
be established on the Australian Con- ■
tinent a new and glorious English- j
speaking Republic.
THE following from Hon. Roger Q.
Mills is full of common sense ; "The
splendid light we have made against
the high tariff lias beaten, disorgan
ized and scattered our foes, and it
would be folly for us now to go to
wrangling over silver and divide our
forces and restore the Republicans
with their force hills, bounties, in
creased tariffs and the increased dis
tressess and spoliations of the people.
The Democratic party will not wrangle
over free c linage. M'hen it gets the
opportunity to make it a leading issue
it will force it. But until Federal
taxes are reduced to the revenue-only
basis, there can be only one leading
issue—the reform of taxation and the
overthrow of tsx-snpported monopoly."
Strike, at the Core of the Trouble.
One of the most logical articles printed
upon the disturbances of the past few
weeks is the following taken from the
Philadelphia Record:
| Fortified against foreign competition !
I in the production of their wares, the !
I protected industries have sought to pro
j tect themselves against the demand for
I high wages by importing cheap labor
. from Europe. Huns, Poles and Italians
have bean brought across the seas to dig
our canals, tunnel our hills, build em
bankments for our railroads, mine our
coal, and to engage in whatever other
drudgery might be done by unskilled
labor. In this way wages have
been cheapened, and the condition of
labor at the mines, upon public works j
and elsewhere, has been lowered nearer j
to the European level. Votes were
needed in order to niuintain a system of
taxation repugnant to American ideas of j
fairness, and nothing was simpler than '
to naturalize the imported Hun, Pole oi |
Italian and make of him a convenient in j
strument for the political as well as the j
physical service of his importer. It has j
been one of the master strokes of tin
protected interests in Pennsylvania to
use the same agency for keeping down
wages and keeping up taxation. In the
mine the imported laborer drove out tin
native, at the polls he nullified the ballot
of the workingman he had displaced.
Far he it from the Record to under
| rate the value of the work done by the 1
I poverty-stricken millions who have
J escaped from the political and industrial 1
i bondage of the Old World to help build 1
; up ttie wealth of the New World. Those 1
who have come hither of their own mo- 1
tion from a love of freedom or as a
means of escape from penury to plenty 1
have been welcomed with hospitable 1
hands and have been indissolubly in- 1
termingled with our composite nation
ality. Even the cheap labor of the 1
persuaded immigrant has added to the • 1
sum of our comfort, although he may '
not have contributed to the dignity 1
of our citizenship. Though we should 1
be better off without him, we shall hate 1
no word of unkiudness for him as long 1
as he shall behave himself.
But what shall lie thought of the high ®
priests of protection who, after luring "
the ignorant Huns, Poles and Italians to *
our shores, in order to put money in '
their own protective pockets, now
through their newspaper organs turn 1
and rend them? Because of the mobbing 1
in New Orleans and the slaughter in \
Westmoreland county, in which the
wretched foreigners have been the main 1
sufferers, they have been denounced as i
riff raff, the scum of creation, semi
savages, and little better than barbarians 1
Not a word about their importers. No I
mention of the Carnegies or Fricks.
"The next Congress must deal with this
matter,' sin ait the tariff organs.
It is more than probable that the next 1
Congress will deal with the matter. It
will make a beginning in the right 1
quarter by dealing .with the gentry who. 1
for their own aggrandizement, while
professing to be the friends of labor,
have done what they could to degrade it
and defraud it. The hypocritical cry ol
the organs at this particular juncture
does not deceive any one.
Boycotting Is Criminal Conspiracy*
In a suit brought by the proprietor ol
the Covington (Ky.) Commonwealth , to res
train a Cincinnati Typographical Union
from boycotting his paper, Justice Sage,
[ of the United States District Court, has
decided that such a boycott is a criminal
conspiracy. The owner of the Common
wealth refused to conduct his paper ac
cording to union regulations or to pay |
union rates. The union then had hand-1
hills and circulars posted and distributed
calling upon the patrons of the news-1
paper to withdraw their patronage. At |
I the trial the defendants did not deny |
I responsibility for the handbills and cir-'
| culars; hut did deny any threat or men
| ace. They insisted that the plaintiff's
! remedy lay in a civil suit for damages,
| and also that at the utmost their action
| did not go beyond the warrant of lawful
j competition. The Judge held, however,
| that the gist of the offense did not lie in
I the acts of the defendants; but in the il
| legal combination to do them. They
I could not escape by pleading that they
had made no threats and had no mali
\ cious intent.— Ex.
Why Parnell Cannot Lead.
j There is something more in this Par
nell fight than generally makes its way ;
I into the newspapers. Mrs. O'Shea is •
only apart of it. The irreconcilable dif-!
j ference between Parnell and his oppo- !
I nents lies largely in their opposing eco
nomic views. Parnell at heart is a Tory, j
Those men who are opposing him are
true radicals. Michael Davitt is a single
taxer. So are tnany of the others. Near
ly nil believe in taxing ground rents very
high. On the other hand Parnell is in
I favor of land purchase schemes. He
l does not hate landlordism; heonly wishes j
|to change the landlords. He says that
a big English robber must be paid some- j
! tiling to stop robbing so as to give the [
i little Irish robber a chance to begin. \
i. But Irishmen should not be robbed at all,
not even by their own countrymen; and !
. when they get ready to stop the stealing
they don't intend to compensate the i
thieves, either.— Johnstoicn Democrat. j

.4 Open Letter hj Mtmter Workman
In an open letter published in the
Scranton Truth on Tuesday evening,
General Master Workman T.V. Powder
ly says, among other things, as follows:
! The Ballot Reform Bill now before the
Legislature is impracticable, it is uncon
stitutional, it is worthless, and if it pas
ses will afford no measure of relief from
the operations of the manipulator of the
election boards.
The bill before the Legislature pro
vides for the fastening down of the cor
ner of the ticket on which the number
is to be written, but the secrecy we seek
will not come through that operation, for
the election officer must number the
| ticket in presence of the voter and must
I place the same number opposite the
i name of the voter on a roll book. The
1 election officer will know who the citizen
: votes for and he will disclose the name
! after the passage of that measure just
j the same as he does to-day. But that is
j not all. The man who will sell his vote
j may, under the Constitution, call in an-
I other citizen to write his name for him.
j Here is how the operation will be ner
lormed under the Baker Bill. The
"boss" will marshal his hosts and inarch
them to the polls, they will go in to vote I
and each man of them may have his
right hand injured so that he cannot |
write, his wrist may be sprained, his
thumb may be swollen, he may have |
| any one of a hundred ailments to pre- I
I vent the use of a pen and he will then
apply to the "boss" outside to come in i
and see him deliver the goods. This !
may be done under the Constitution as it
now stands, and it trill be done.
The Knights of Labor Legislative Com
mittee should appeal to each and every |
member of the House to move to bring J
the matter up and note every refusal.
To the people I appeal in the hope i
that they will, regardless of political alii- j
nations, assemble in mass meetings and i
demand the passage of a bill to give us a j
Constitutional Convention. Make known
to the members of House and Senate,
representing each district, that it is the
desire that a convention be held and
that nothing else will give satisfaction, i
Send in to the members of House and
.Senate resolutions asking that this right
eous thing be done and note the action
taken.
We of Pennsylvania are at the mercy
of thieves and criminals on election day,
our rights and liberties are stolen from
us when a single vote is bought and sold.
We are not supplicating for a favor, we
are demanding a right which you can
give us.
The passage of ballot reform law with
out amending the Constitution will do no j
good, it will not be accepted by the in-!
telligent citizens of this commonwealth i
and when the Supreme Court asserts j
that such a measure is in conflict with the ;
Constitution that will not shield the i
Legislator who would not vote for a Con
atitutional Convention. The Constitu
lion stands in the way of reform. "It is |
the right of the people to alter or abolish j
it," and that right comes down to us I
through the centuries and is asserted in 1
the Declaration of Inde|>endence.
Were I to remain silent on this ques-1
tion until the campaign of 1892 opened
and then take sides, as I intend to, my
action would be liable to misconstruction
and my motives would be attributed to a
desire to see a certain party, or man,
win, but at this distance, no such con- 1
struction can be placed on my words,
ami if I have the life and strength in
j 1892 I shall stump this State in favor of
a Constitutional Convention and against
every member of the Legislature who
fails to record himself properly in favor
of it. Ido not rate my influence as be
ing very great or far reaching, but such
. as it is will be united with that of every
1 other lover of pure government in 1892
i and I feel that the number will be sufli
cient to punish foes and reward friends.
"The New I'llihillt-lplltH."
"The New Philadelphia" is the title
of a deeply interesting article which will
appear in the May Cosmopolitan, and is
from the pen of Sir. llenry C. Walsh.
To those who are not entirely familiar
with "the city of brotherly love" of
to day, and w ho taking the joke-maker
at his word entertain the erroneous idea
that the third largest city in the union is
at best but a sleepy and unenterprising
town, the Cosmopolitan's article will prove
a veritable revelation. Tne great change
that has been wrought during the past
decade in the external appearance of
Philadelphia is ably set forth and greatly
augmented by the splendid illustrations
drawn by Mr. Harry Fenn. A glance nt
these masterly drawings shows that in
| beauty of architecture, the solidity and
! inoderncss of construction ami design in
1 her homes, clubs and commercial build-1
; ings, Philadelphia stands at the very
j head of flourishing American cities. The 1
| business, social and intellectual advance-1
ment of this, perhaps the most habitable
! of cities, is no less marked that is its '
mere outward progression. Doubtless ;
j too much attention has been paid to j
! other more ostentatiously progressive
[ cities—especially of the West —to the
exclusion of the (juakcr City and its
marvelous growth. The article in the
May CosmojMlitan, however, places Phila
delphia before the public in its true light
as one of the best governed, most enter
prising and socially, commercially and
politically progressive cities of the
United States. For copies of this in
teresting monthly, address

—An attempt was made at Wilkes-1
Barre yesterday evening by a party of

Not a Hypocrite.
A man of shambling gait and ragged
appearance forced his wav into tl.t
counting-room of a large publishing
house, and, addressing the proprictoi
who looking up in astonishment, said:
"I want fifty cents."
"Don't owe you anything."
"I know that, but I need the money."
"Want to buy something to eat, 1
; suppose."
i "No sir, I don't want anything to
eat."
"Oh, I see, you want to buy youi
babv a pair of shoes."
"No, I don't."
"Ah, you want to buy an under
: shirt."
"No, I don't."
} "Then why do you want fifty cents?"
I "Want to get drunk."
"By George!" exclaimed the great
1 business man, "you are farther from
being a livpocrite than an.v man I have
seen this year. Here's a dollar for

ONE TOUCH OF NATURE.
The wind was high, hiu hat blew off
And rolled along the street.
"Great Hcott I" he cried, and after it
He ran with nimble feet.
It stopped—he reached it—as he stooped
To tuke it up, a gust
Came suddenly, and off the hat
Went in a whirl of dust.
The sage, the fool, the grave, the gay,
Youug, middle-aged, and old,
The tall, the short, the lean, the fat,
The timid aud the bold,
The rich, the poor, all laughed to see
The dicer whirl and spin—
This is the touch of nature, sure,
That makes the whole world kiu.

Swift Birds.
Thomas Alexander, in nis Is .ik en
titled "Game Birds of the United
States," says that wild ducks unaided
by the wind, fly from BO to 100 miles ap
hour, and that the bine-winged teal,
"goingdown the wind at the top of his
speed, will make fully 150 miles an
hour, possibly more." The swiftest
hird on the wing is the frigate bird, a
sort of nautical bird of prey. Sailors
believe that it can start at the peep of j
| dawn from the coast of Africa, and fol- I
| lowing the trade winds, land on the
American coast before sunset. It can
| undoubtedly fly more than 200 miles an
, hour, but we do not know of any trust
. worthy speed of which it is capable.— !

"Yea, ma'am, we do," said the oblig- j

style ?"
"You bet! Particular style is just |
' what I'm after. Some folks out our !

two ways for Sunday. That's the kind

"You don't look as if you did. Wall, i

"Yes."

A child brought up in an atmosphere
of books will absorb a certain amount
of culture from his very surroundings.
As soon as a child lias learned to turn
over the leaves of a book without tear
ing them give him books of bis own. II
he cares for them at first only for the
pictures, ho will in time learn to love
them for what they can tell him. Chil
dren should be encouraged to keep theii
books neatly on little shelves of their
own. Very neat hanging shelves con
-1 laining from one to four shelves can be
obtained at the bazaars at from 50
; cents to sl, and will bo found a source
of much pleasure to the child, who is
ocrtain to glory in the idea of pro
prietorship and to take much pleasun
in arranging h s small library. It wil
! also teach him to take good care of hit
books, which is a lesson he cannot learr
I too soon. The true book lover alwayi

| THE war clouds which hovered over
'he country last week have been dis
pelled for a time at least. While they
were present they brought into prom
inence a remarkable characteristic of
(he American people, one which must
have been noticed, by every casual
observer of the event. With the first
breath of war party politics were lost
sight of. There were no Democrats,
no Republicans—all were Americans
—determined, even if unprepared, to
defend and uphold the dignity of a
nation whose laws and liberties had
been abused.
