Col. John W. Forney died in Phila-
delphia at 8 o'clock Friday morning last.
He was little more than sixty-four
years old, and had been conspicuous as
a newspaper proprietor and editor ever
since 1887. The climax Of his profess
sional career was reached from 1916 to
1850, when he conducted the "Pennsyl-
vanian," Dem cratic journal OF great
ability and influence. He remained a
member Of the Democratic party until
about 1868, when he resisted the policy
of Mr.. Buchanan in Kansas and went
over to the Republicans. Daring the
civil war he conducted both the "Chron-
icle" in Washington aud the press" in
Philadelphia. From 1861 to 1868 he
was Secretary of the United States Sem
ate, and after leaving that Office he re-
turned to Philadelphia. Finally he gave
up the "Press" and founded a weekly
paper called the Progress, which he
continued to publish up to the time of
his death. In the election of 1880 he left
the Republican party and returned to the
Democracy. Col. Fornoy was man OF
great energy, generous heart and cordial
nature. His friendships were most sin
cere, aud his unexpected death will be
most deeply lamented by these who best
knew him,

DEMOCRATHC OUTLOOK.


At no time within the past twenty
years, says one of our exchanges, have
the Democrats of Pennsylvania felt go
confident Of success in electing their
State ticket as now, and this feeling is
mainly due to the belief that Grantism
will have secured SO firm grip on the
National Administration by the time the
next general election takes place in
Pennsylvania that the result will be a
repetition of the tidal wave that over
whelmed the Republican party in 1874.
There is unprecedented vigor in the
contests now taking place all over the
Commonwealth to secure control of the
Convention to nominate a candidate for
Governor, Lieutenant Governor, Secre-
tary of internal Affairs, and also Judge
for the Supreme Court.
The four most prominent candidates
for Governor are ex-senator William A.
Wallace of Clearfield, ex-Member of
Congress William Hopkins of Pittsburgh,
State Senator Eekley b. Core of Lu-
.zerne, and Robert E. Pattison, Comp
troller of Philadelphia and just now
the point Of greatest interest in the con-
test is the struggle to secure the forty
six delegates from Philadelphia Comp
troller Pattison has the active support of
the Committee of One Hundred, Mayor
King, Tax Receiver Hunter, Joseph L.
Caven, Senator Gordon, and the veteran
campaigner, the Hon. Lewis @. Cassidy,
Is already actively at work to counteract
the efforts of Mr.. Pattiscn's friends to
secure the delegates from Philadelphia.
Mr.. Wallace has begun a flank move
ment, which consists in bringing out
Judge Ludlow of Philadelphia as a
candidate for Judge of the Supreme
Court and x-Postmaster- General John
III. Campbell, william Singerly, pnb-
fisher of the Record" Thomas j. Bar
ger, ex-City Solicitor of Philadelphia,
George McGordan, ex-ChaiTman of the
Democratic Committee, and Alderman
"Bill" McMullin are managing the cam
paign for Judge Ludlow. The effort to
throttle the aspirations of Comptroller
Pattison is being fought with persist
ency never before seen in political con-
fest in Philadelphia.
On the other hand, the friends Of Mr..
Pattison have started ex.G0v Andrew
q: Curtin as candidate for Supreme
Judge and as the Ex-Governor resides
in an adjoining county to ex-senator
Wallace, and now represents Wallace's
county in Congress, it is hoped by the
friends of Pattison to create such di-
version in favor of Curtin for Supreme
Judge throughout the central counties
; Of the State that Mr.. Wallace will be
kept so busy looking after the election of
delegates at home that he will have little
time TO attend TO other sections of the
State. With four fullgrown men in the
held for Governor, and each recognized
Hs q political giant at home, and all in
hnest fighting condition, it will readily
be seen what hard blows will be given.
II Judge Ludlow secures the delegates
from Philadelphia, Mr.. Pattison's name
will scarcely be presented bef, re the
Convention while, upon the othel
hand, should ex-Gov. Curtin obtain an!
number of delegates frcm the centra
part of the State committed to his inter
ssts, it viii tell severely against Mr.
Wallace.

WASHINGTON, Dec. IL, 1881.
At no time since the war has Congress
assembled under such favorable auspices
as the present, We have no foreign trou-
bles to annoy us aud are confronted by
nothing but peace and prosperity at
home. The financial condition of our
country is better than ever before and
there are no great disturbing questions
Of any sort to be considered. All branch
es Of the Government are under control
OF the same party, yet the lines of de-
marcation between the two great parties
are SO faint, and the majorities in each
branch so weak, that political legislation
in its narrow sense will not form potent
factor in the proceedings OF Congress.
Barring the new apportionment for mem
bers of the House, in accordance with the
late census, there does not seem to be any
political issue worthy OF note ana the one
great object of congressional action must
be the canvass and determination OF the
best methods of maintaining the coun-
try's prosperity and strengthening the
foundations OF our business vigor
The opening day WAS comparatively a
quiet one, though on the House side all
the galleries were crowded. For one day
that body proved an attTsction n able 10
compete with the Guiteau trial, but il
couldn't keep il up. There wers no eE
pecially sensational scenes to reward the
curiosity seekers. A look over the House

THE REpuBbIcAN BOSS.

The anti-Ca neron men are in fear and
trembling. They are afraid of the
Judgment to come. During the Garfield
regime they were bold and defiant aud
after Oonkling and Pl4tt's resignation
nothi Ig could exceed the vigor with
which they assalled their opponents.
After Gaiield's death they abated but
very little cf their old hostility, having
sort of blind faith that President Arthur
would not dare to set up an Independent
Administration. They overlooked the
TACT that he was master of the situation,
and might have mind Of his own and
will and determination to carry out all
plans which might seem to him expedi-
ent and proper. When Wolfe came out
fl ,t-footed aud in earnest, the only gen.
uine outspoken Garfield candidate, they
were given magnificent opportunity to
overthrow bossisIn and establish their
sincerity but they preferred to remain
quiet and let things take their course
without any assistance on their part. and
as result Mr.. Cameron's power never
was so great as it is now. The failure of
the Wolfe movement, which the Inde-
pendents might have made magnificent
success by little concerted effort, has
strengthened the Senator's influence not
only ut home, but in Washington.
:. Of lao RarNttl
lican situation in this State. That he is
bold and determined. no one will deny (;
and that he will rule his party with a
rod of iron, no one who has closely
watched bis career since he assumed
control of the Republican machine, cnu
doubt. He takes long chances to be
sure, but he is eminently aggressive and
possessed of such an indomitable will
that but few of his opponents dare say
nay. He sways men at his pleasure.
This was illustrated at Cincinnati, when
to defeat Blaine, he forced the Pennsyl-
-vania delegation to belle and betray the
State. Legislatures and State Conven-
tions have felt this same irresistible in
fuence before, and a:e likely to feel it
again. His last achievement, when he
wheeled the Pennsylvania delegation
around from Hiscock to Keifer, thereby
slaughtering the Half-B Breed and electing
the Stalwart to frame the Committees
and hold the gavel OF the House of Rep.
resentatives, sealed the doom of his ad-
versaries and locked the hated collar
more firmly than ever around the party's
neck.
