We egre, that any Jeurnh should bc so restrict.
ed by party views, as to have its vision always lis
mi'rd by party Lines. The tariff question is one
which should, and we hope will, stand above party
tactics, We hardly believe shat there is an in.
leIgcnt citizen in Pennsylvania opposed to dis
eliminating tariff, unless from sinister views, he
should be willing to make the interests of his state
conform 10 the interests of President makers, The
circns of Wyoming Valley, particularly, have
deep and abiding interest in tariff, Should TO-
reign coal and iron he introduced into this country
and our es Adjustments broken up, none would suf.

may draw lessons of instruction from the most des>

forgotten tha, " rtin Van Buren, recommended the
Sub b-Treasary plan, the ground that il had been
adopted and approved by nearly all the monarchcal

Considerable opposition has been made 10 the
nomination of Judge Rogers, in the Senate.
Mr.. Fleming made brief address in opposition
to the nomination. He referred to the "Buckshot
var" arguing that Judge Gibson, by and with
the concurrence of Judge Rogers was appointed in
1888, in order that the Supreme Cour, should sus-
tain the party then in power, "rien or wrong"
The major, we think, might find matters of much
more importance and interest, to his con tiruens,
in support ofwhich he could "rase his feeble voice"
Mr.. Hesdly presented a petition from members
of the bar of Columbia and Northumberland coun.
