Tenants.

We have headed this article Tenants,
but we desire more particularly, to speak
to the Landlords in their favour, than to
give to them homiIy although, before
we are done, we desire also to speak a
word to themselves. But first to the Land
lords. Some weeks ago we wrote to you
concerning the houses you built for those
who are your Tenants, and asked, that the
fashion ofputting up for them smalI,uncom-
Portable and inconyenient houses, should
be entirely exploded.
We come now to ask you that you give
to those poor men who till your broad and
rich acres, better chances to make living
for themselves and those dependant upon
them than as general thing you now do.
You have been fortunate. God has bless.
ed your exertions. You have accumula-
ted goodly proportion of this worlds
goods. Your neighbor has probably been
unlucky. He has had large family to
support, and thus, he, who once bid fair TO
stand in the place you occupy, is now your
tenant, Think how you, in such situa-
ton, should wish to be used, and go and do
likewise.
And you, Tenants, we have also word
for you. 1t has been our fortune to see a
good many occupying your position. We
pretend to know something about it. And
we know, that while great number of them
do their duty and their whole duty to their
Landlords, others are sadly negligent and
remiss.
TO all you, the golden rule, DO as you
would be done by, will also most forcibIy
apply. While we are not agrarian, we
ask that the poor shall receive what is due
to all men Yet at the same time, let it be
the highest aim Of those under authority to
perform all their duty--citzens generally
should have more ample and correct no
ton of those rights, which, in society, are
due from man to man and should be more
punctual in paying them. Let all do their
duty to each other.

The Tariff Question Settled,

The result of the election in Pennsylva-
MIA has settled the question of the Tariff,
which was made by the Wings the leading
issue in the last campaign. The Demo
Gratis were desirous of keeping that ques-
ton out of the canvass but our opponents
would not permit it, and insisted that the
destru ction or pormanency of the act of
1916 depended on the election of HENRY
M. FULLER or JOHN A. GAMBLE. The
Wings made this the great question of the
campaign-and as Mr.. GAMBLE is elected
by an overwhelming majority, of course
the people have expressed their satisfaction
with the tariff as it is, and do not desire
its destruction, or even any essential modi-
Gcaton of its details. Is our Federal
neighbor Cook, OF the DanUiNe Democrat,

pict the Rise aud Progress ola popular Preacher,
whose adventures traverse all the principal cities
ofthe United States. Italso depicts the following

The great SLAVE TRADrR Of Philadelphia

accept the wages OF iniamy.
8. The young OUTcAsr of the great city, whom
poverty and destitution have trained to the ways
of rulianism and murder.
Aside from the interest developed in those
characters the'work touches upon two great evils
which have never been introduced into any work

affect the peace of eVry home, ,anj the perpetuaion
of civilized society. They are depicted by the

Nhig Growing.

We notice in a late Danyile Democrat
TFed. a remark something like the follow
ing, we quote from memory having mis-
laid the paper; that the reduced majority
of Gamble, the Democratic candidate, is
pretty we'll for county that gave Polk
l632-in lS44.-An insinuatiOn is here
thrown out, that the whig party are grow
ing stronger in Columbia County -and the
Editor, no doubt, chuckIed eomplacenlly at
the idea of whig supremacy in the "Slar OF
the North" Let us examine these preten-
tions and see how near he is to realizing
his utopan dream.
Taking the vote of the last election,
which every candid man will acknowledge
to be rather against us, he will see that
there were $50 more Democrats remained
at home this time, than wings.
These added to CANDLES majority would
increase tito 1888 Now we presume it
will not be denied nor even caviled at,
that in this county, atleast 500 or 600 DEM
ocrats voted for Taylor: as from 1914 the
whig vote increased nearly 7OO-whle the
Democratic vote did not gain quite 200.
But suppose that only 200 or 900 Dem
ocrats votedfor Taylorin lsls and dremain-
ed at home, with the $50: then, and this
number, 200, must surely be granted our
majority would reach its usual 1900 and
1900
We think Charley's rejoicing rather pre-
mature, and may possibly again advert to
this subject.

WOb at Philadelphia.

On the 9th instant there was very ser
ious disturbance and riot at PhiIadelhhia, in
the course Of which there were three per-
sons killed, and ten or twelve wounded. 1t
was the whites against the blacks. The
keeper of a black tavern, the California
House, was charged with having a white
woman for a wife, or with living with her
as though she was his wife; and to put an
end to or to punish this indeceny, or this
proAigacy,or whateverit was, the mob took
the matter in hand, and proceeded, as US
uaI, a Ia Lynch. The tavern was burned,
and other excesses committed besides the
homicide, which, in such cases, is murder !;
but some how or other, the offenders almost
always escape,as they will on this occasion,
we suppose.
