REPUBLICAN statesmen who are just
now making 50 much fuss over what
they are pleased to term the "reyolu-
tionary" attitude Of the democrats in
Congress have extremely short memo
ries. They seem to forget that when
they were in power they gave the ma
ton many examples of the same kind
of revolutionary legislation which they
are now so free to condemn. Demo
Gratis only propose TO repeal the OBJ
noxious election enactmeuts i'm the
same manner in which they became
laws. Most all of them were passed
by republican congresses as riders to
appropriation bills, and if it was right
to pass them in that way, certainly it
cannot be wrong to repeal them in the
same way. In truth the majority that
now controls congress can find pre-.
cedents made by the other side for
everything they intend to do in rela-
ton to the repeal Of the laws in issue
between the two parties. Gen. Gar

The STATE CoLLEGE.-A move
was made in the Legislature on Mon
day night, during the session of the
House, that looks like an investigation
of the affairs of the State College by Il
Legislative committee. The officers
of the College will no doubt be able
to meet in satisfactory manner all
inquiries that may be made. The fol-
lowing preamble and resolution, in
troduced into the House by Mr.. Kin
caid, member from Erie county, was
adopted;
WHEREAS. By certain acts Of assembly
passed in 1894 un institution WAS incorpO-
rated called the Farncr's High School
of PennsylvAnia,' having for It's object
" the education of youth in the various
branches Of science, learning and prncti-
cal agriculture - the name of which iusti-
tuition WAS subsequently changed 10 the
Pennsylvania stato college:
Ind Wheroas, By an Act 81 congress ap-
proved July ,, 1862, land scrip amounting
To- 1SO 900 acres was donated TO the state
for the benefit Of agriculture and mechani-
cal arts, which land scrip was subsequently
sold for the sum of Si39, 4sG.s 10, and by act
OF 1867 one-ienth OF the proceeds Of said
sale was appropriated 10 said college, To-
gcthcr with the interest and income Of the
entire reSiducs.
dHi Whereas, The state has at other
times made other large appropriations by
acts 81 1891, 1861 and 1878, to said college
10 aid In carrying out the purposes for
which the institution was Incorporated

A REPUBLICAN paper says ga pub
lie meeting is to be held in Philadel-
phia TO condemn Wallace for fighting
Randall" We have not seen any
other evidence that such Il meeting is
TO be held, nor learned that there is
any occasion for it. But still il may
be SO, for there are great many fools

and if this class want to mir their folly
they could not find a man they could

We notice that the Republican pa
pers, and some others, pcrsistcntly
charge that Senator Wallace labored
to defeat Mr.. Randall's election n
Speaker of the House. Now, Mr..
Wallace did no such thing. He is
not that kind of a Democrat, and was
too deeply interested in Il successful
Democratic organization of Congres.
to endanger it by any act Of his. Mr.
Wallace may have had n personal pre-
ference for the nomination of another
man than Mr.. Randall, but if so, i.
he 10 be condemned? Mr.. Randall
does not hesitate TO exercise the right
of personal choice, and why should
Mr.. Wallace be condemned for doing
the same thing. We have the very
highest regard for both of these dis
tinguished men. and will receive with
large allowance any reports published
to their disadvantage, and manifcstly
put upon the wing for the same pur
pose and by the same men who labor
ed last fall to distract and defeat tn,
Democratic party.

The following handsome tribute to
a noble man We take great pleasure in
copying from the Harrisburg Patriot /:
"The army is always considered an
element of danger 10 a free country" 4"
was the remark of Gen. W. :. Hancock
the other day TO ST. Louis interviewer.
For this reason the General believes that
the army will not be increased, There
is no soldier in this or any other coun.
try who has clearer or more patriotic
IDEAS on the subject of the relation of
the military 10 the civil power than
Gen. Hancock. He has given evidence
Of this fact on more than one occasion.

New Orleans during the reconstructIon
period in which he made plea for
civil liberty worthy Of the greatest

General Hancock evinces statesmanship
Of high order. lie has evidently given
careful study TO the federal constitu.
ton and republican institutions. lie
has thus learned what too many military

ministrstion of the laws is not impeded
the civil power is superior TO any mill.
tary authority. With man Of his
liberal and enlightened views at the
head Of the army or at the head OF the
government the liberties Of the people
would be safe. The time may not be
far distant when Winfield Scott Han.
cock will be the favorite of the people
as he has been and is the idol Of the
army.
This reads as though the Patriot
would like to see the gallant hero in
the White House at Washington, and
the DEMOCRAT feels a strong inclina-
ton to second the motion.
