Result of the Harrisburg Convention,
Ms Viewed. from Different
Political Standpoints.

Chicago, Feb. 2.-The Iribuae's
washington special says; 1t is known
here that Don Cameron was more in
terested in the Harrisburg convention
than in any other political event of his
life. When the McManes delegation
was here McManes was not in favor of
instructing for Grant, and during an
interview in Cameron's house, the lat
ter was greatly excited, and walked up
and down the floor in great state of
mind, declaring that if he failed at
Harrisburg it would be his political de-
struction. 1t was no longer Grant,
Blaine or Sherman, it was himself.
His appeals were listened to. and Nc
Names succumbed.
The point is uppermost that all of
Cameron's hard work only saved de-
feat by six votes, as u change of that
number would have been fatal TO Grant.
The victory is by no means cause for
rejoicing here.
The Tribune, editorially, after show
ing that it was scramble, and not
victory, for Grant, says: The Penn
sylvania delegation therefore stands in
structed to cast its entire vote for Gen.
Grant, but it is believed that fully one
third of the delegation are Blaine men,
and that Blaine will get every vote in
the event of the abandonment of the
Grant movement, either before or dur
ing the session of the national conven-
tion.
The Inter Ocean says: The action of
the Pennsylvania republican conven-
tion yesterday gives the boom addition
al strength and volume, and places the
Keystone state in the van for Grant.
The results summed up are that the
delegation is instructed to vote as a
unit for Gen. Grant at Chicago, and
that the action of Pennsylvania must
be a slrong card for Grants sup
porters.
The Times only recites the facts with
evident condemnation of the proceed
ings at Harrisburg.
The Cincinnati Enquirer regar Is the
result as deciding that Grant will be
nominated at Chicago. In case some
thing should intervene, and Grant with
draw, Blaine would doubtless be the
nominee. Sherman stands no show.
The Commercial regards it as an in
jury to Grant to force the real senti-
ment of the state into the shade, but
enjoins Blaine's supporters not to be
downcast.
The Gazette takes the same grounds.
New York, Feb. 5.-An Albany
special to the evening Post says: The
result of the Pennsylvania convention
is commented on by the republicans
here with some degree of caution.
Outspoken Grant men approve, and are
in favor of the New York conven-
tions following the example. They say
that the action of the Harrisburg con-
vention shows that Pennsylvania is
is for Grant, and that he will, if nom-
mated, carry that state with ease.
The more conservative republicans
are reluctant to criticise the result of
the convention.
Blaine men predict trouble in the
New York convention If the attempt
is persisted in to instruct the delega-
tion in favor of Grant.

INHUMAN TREATMENT.
Strange Way of Furnishing Criminals
I'm Kentucky.

Louisville, Feb. 5.-The legislature
is now investigating the state prison
report. the condition of which is shame
fully bad. 1t is overcrowded, sewerage
defective, unclean, diet improper, and
scuryy prevails among the prisoners to
a fearful extent. At one time over two
hundred were in the hospital with it.
There was total of 775 cases out Of
1000 inmates during the year. The
sole cause has been improper food and
treatment, which is wholly inexcusable.
The mortality has nearly doubled over
preceding years and yet the number of
prisoners is not much, if any, greater.
Flogging prisoners has been carried to
cruel extreme.

In regard to this great public wrong
which should receive the condemnation
of every honest citizen that it may
serve as a warning in futuresto those
who, under free government, may at

people, would recommend an inves-
tigation of the whole subject of arrang-
ing, tabulating and counting the re-
turns, that the facts, as ascertained
may be made public.

that an increase in the German army
is intended, even beyond that already
announced, namely, by the formation

What an Englishman Thinks of Amen-

He says ''they hurry, they eat quick,
they gulp, they belch, they have stom-
aeh-ache, headache, liver troubles and

without cause; they look sallow and hol-
low-eyed; they look hungry and can't
eat; they spit up food, they have wake
full nights. They die early because
they disregard true principles. These
troubles and many others, grow out Of

The most astonishing cures Of ner-
vous debility, exhausted vitality, semi
nal weakness, paralysis, impurities of

the head and general debility, are con-
stantly being made with the great Eng
lish remedy, Sir Ashley Cooper's Vital
Restorative, by DIR. Mintie 367, Holli-
day street, Denver. The doctor claims
that any case, no matter how bad, nor
of how long standing, can be cured if
properly managed. EXcitant and irri-
tant medicines should never be given
in these troubles for they only exhaust
the already impaired nerve force. The
VITAL RESTORATIVE will not

Wilson is now advocating an efficient
system of common schools in Tennes>
see. Only few years ago he wrote
a number of bitter articles, which
were published in the Gallatin Ten
nesseean, against the common school
law. He also canvassed Sumner
county against proposed levy Of 10
cents on the 500 for school purposes
and denounced it in the bitterest
terms, and yet. he now stands upon a
platform that favors the common
school system. We have never known
such friend to the people as s. F.
Wilson, the bolter. He has been on
both sides Of almost every public ques-
ton.
