THE PASSOVER.
Its Significance Described by an lntelliS,

Its Significance Described by an Intelligent
1sraeIite.
For the INTBLLIG4SCIR.
The feast of Passover (Pesach) began
the evening of the 26th inst. Every pious
Israelite on last evening sat by his
table surrounded by all the members of
his family reading from the scripture with
deep emotion the his tory of liberation of
his ancestors from slavery. The unleaven
bread, bitter herbs and a piece of roasted
meat Representing the Easter lamb) are
placed on dish, and cup of wine stands
before every partaking member. The ex-
PLANTATION of this symbol is here super
fluous. In the synagogue the prayers and
reading the history of Moses and Israel
and lecture explaining the full meaning
Of this feast form of the services.
Why do we Israelites adhere tenacious
ly and scrupulosly to this feast?
Why should we citizens of the United
States not supp]ant the 4th of July and
give up the Passover? Why should not
the Israelites in Franco celebrate the es,
tablishment of tho republic instead of the
Passover?
1t is remarkable fact that in Judaism
everything begins with liberty. The nation
begins with liberty gained. The reve-
latiOn on Mount Sinai begins with
announcing the eternal God who broke
the yoke of Egypt. The statute law be-
gins with the abolition of slavery among
the Hebrews, and the whole of it is based
upon the principle of equality in this jubi-
lee year. Judaism has its start in the
idea of freedom, political moral and intel
lectual politically, it demands justice and
equality morally, it declares the free will
Of man intellectually, it defends the right
Of individuality aud free thought. This in
divisible liberty is personified in the
Passover. Political freedom without moral
and intellectual freedom is imperfect. Not
for nation, but for all nations, was free
dom born when Israel went out of Egypt.
AS long as there is any despotism in
church or state we cling to freedom per
sonified in the Passover.
The world accepts one truth after
another from the shrine of Israel. The
world moves slowly, but since the discovery
of Typography its progress has been steady.
Priests of darkness will be turned into
advocates of light. Our educational ihsti-
tutions, when fully stripped from sectarian
influences, will announce this end. L.

TUESDAY EVENING. MARCH 30, 1890.
The County Business.

Anybody who carefully scans the coun-
ty auditors report of the county finances,
can readily see that there are many places
in the management of our local affairs
where good business habits and saving
common sense would largely profit the
public; and there is good ground for
suspicion that the county auditors, a
majority of them at least, after having
started to explore some of the avenues
of waste, were diverted from the pursuit
by undue pressure from the outside IN
behalf of suspected offenders, who were
not otherwise able to clear their skirts.
We hear that bills are presented at the
commissioners Office for more days work
than days-Sundays and all-can be
counted in the whole time assigned TO
the work we have already pointed out
that the collection Of the county tax could
be made by the county treasurer at one
tenth of it's present cost; it is not likely
that the prison management would be SO
invested with abuses as the auditors say
and the almshouse management be en-
tirely exem It therefrom, especially since
it is motor Jus that one of the poor direc'
tors is indirectly furnishing that institu'
ton with supplies under the different
names of his agents; it is freely charged
that the county deposits are being made
to the benefit of private parties; ii
is we'll known that early in theil
labors the auditors found what seemed
to be made-up alderman's bills, founded
Oh fictitious cases, and that after they
had engaged counsel to investigate sucl
cases they suddenly concluded "to 60 il
alone" We have before us, as we write
a constable's bill, in which the mileage
has been evidently raised hundred
miles after it was sworn to, the forgery
being so clumsy that it is astonishing
anyone would attempt it for Sc, and th'
constable for whose benefit it appears tt
have been altered tells us tha
the auditors never called upol
him to explain. 1t is charged ant
prinaa facie it appears from the bills Oh
file that the mileage accounts Of some o
the constables are outrageously swelled
and that in one case where only
1000 miles were even sworn to, ] ,6S;
were paid for; that in another an office
drew pay for 60 miles mileage when hi
simply lodged a detainer against MAJ
already in Jail not to speak of enormous
sums paid for so-called detective" ser
vice, without warrant of law.
These and many other abuses, brought
to our notice and, we are assured, which
had the auditors attention called tt
them, which demand further future re
view, suggest that much of the unusual
ly long time occupied by the auditor
this year was devoted to the determine
tion how not to do it,

SOME of the Fayette county Democrats
want to send contesting delegates to the
state convention, solely on the ground
that those already elected regularly will
not represent the wishes of their consti-
tuents. Of course this is no excuse for a
contest. If they were properly elected,
it is a matter between them and their
constituents how they vote, and the peo-
pie of Fayette can settle with them here
after. 1t will be great outrage, of
course, if they ignore the wishes of
nine-tenths of their constituents" and
they will doubtless duly suffer forit, but
any contest of their seats, on such a pre-
text, had better be abandoned before it be
begun.

Their Flight.

Some of the newspapers which have
been hoping there would be no vindic-
tiveness in the punishment of kemble
and his associates, find this morning that
their plea and pretended apology to the
commonwealth was only a hypocritical
device to avert the just wrath of an out
ragged people. There has been no vindic.
tiveness nor fierce fury in the prosecution
of these men nobody has clamored fol
their blood. While all right-thinking
people felt satisfaction that the Grim.
inals, caught red-handed in their guilt,
were not shielded by their wealth and
social position, nobody made these Cir
cumstances an aggravation of Their
crime. But now, that it is seen that their
manGuvring to evade punishment and
to prostitute the machinery of justice,
and their taking advantage of the laws
liberal delay, were all resorted to in order
to finally flee from the penalty which
they themselves had accepted "a feeling of
some public vindictiveness and deep
resentment at them will be perfectly
justifiable.
1t is very manifest that they have put
their affairs in such shape that they can
only be pursued by their bondsmen, and
they can well afford to pay them the s., 900
at stake in each case to relieve them from
the only incentive which they would
have to follow and capture them. Kem-
ble's bail intimates clearly that he is Sc
cure and will never lend his name to the
commonwealth to hunt up the man who
have so grievously offended it, and the
rest are likely in the same boat. Kemble is
rich; he rolls in money, much of it
supposed to be official spoils, and for the
remaining years of his life he can well
afford to live abroad and mock at the
impotency of the law. But, after all, the
mark of Cain is on his brow, and Tweed's
fate was scarcely less tolerable than his
will be. A few days, or even few
months in Jail would have elected some
sympathy for him. The hair would
have grown over shaved poll-if he is
not already bald-and striped clothes
could have been soon replaced with
glossy broadcloth. But he has forever
put sympathy or forgetfulness Of his
double crime away from him. He will
60 nowhere where his guilt will not
confront him. He has removed all limit
to his punishment. There will now be
no expiration of his sentence.

THE difference of opinion expressed by
the Pittsburgh Post and the Harrisburg
Patriot, relative to the complexion OF
the Democratic delegates from Beaver
county-with each journal its thought
being fathered by its visibility illus
trates much of the current comment on
the condition of Democratic politics in
this state, and the prospects ahead at the
next state convention. The attempt to
divide the party and classify its divisions
as Wallace and Randall parties, as Til
den or anti-Tilden factions, will signally
fail. We know that some of Mr.. Wal
lace's friends are staunch adherents OF
Mr.. Tilden, and that some of Mr.. Til
den's most untiring opponents are Mr..
Randall's best friends and we earnestly
hope to see the majority of that conven-
tion lay aside all personal differences, all
factional purpose-if any considerable
number of the delegates cherish such
feelings-and all work harmoniously to
the common good and the credit
of the party. Mr.. Tilden's friends
do not, as we understand them.
desire to force any rule or ruin policy on
the party nor to insist on any mans
nomination which will not be heartily
approved by all the elements of the party
whose cooperation is necessary to his
election. The opponents of Mr.. Tilden
at least such of them as are influential
and loyal Democrats-will not advocate
any such measures as will drive his large
body of friends from the hearty and
effective support of the nominee. We
expect to hear Pennsylvania declare fol
the common good and to take only such
action as will secure at Cincinnati the
nomination of that man, who, at that
time, shall seem to be the fittest and
strongest standard bearer of the Dem
Ocracy.

THE call for the Democratic county

egate elections is published to-day, and
from the disposition manifested in the
county committee meeting the Democ-
racy of Lancaster county are awake to
the Importance of the fact that the pres
ent year will see a momentous president
ial campaign. Weight of adverse politi-
cal majority here counts for nothing
against united, harmonious and earnest
york. For years the Democracy of Lam
Caster county have stood shoulder to
shoulder in state and national campaigns,
with the good effect of annually increas-
ing their percentage of the total Demo-
cratic vote of the state-the only true
test of effective political effort. They
have no axes to grind, no Individual
preferences to have realized /; they are for
the common welfare of the party and
the country and when the bugle sounds
to fall into line for the Cincinnati nomi-
nee they will be among the first to re-
Spond to its call.

ELOPEMENT.

A Gay LotIlariO Steals q Wife, Horse and
Buggy.
From letter from Ephrata We learn
that young man named Martin Moore
elOped yesterday with Mrs. Snader, wife Of
the saloon keeper of that village. The
gossips have it that Moore and Mrs Sna-
! der have been entirely too intimate for
some time past and their sudden
departure was not altogether un-
expected. It appears that Moore went
yesterday afternoon to the Eagle
hotel and induced Andrew Becker, the
proprietor, to cash him check for s52.
He then borrowed Mr.. Becker's horse and
buggy promising to return it within two
hours, and taking Mrs. Snader into the
vehicle drove of, and nothin. has beelr
heard of him since.
The disappearance of the couple, has
created quite an excitement. Moore is
single man, a machinist, not more than %
years old. He is stout of build and some,
what lame, one of his legs being shorter
than the other. Mrs. Snader is several years
older, being the mother of a child about 10
years of age. There is no doubt the couple
have gone off to stay, as before leaving
Moore told one of his friends that he was
going to run off with Mrs. Snader.
MIR. Snader is a decent, respectable man,
and no little sympathy is expressed for
him. To-day he is removing with his
family and effects from the restaurant to u
private residence.
