Our Don.

Is not the Washington Post just a
trifle too hard upon our Don? Read
what it says: If it be true that Don
Cameron is in the habit of attending
the sessions of the Senate, day after
day, in state of intoxication, some
thing should be done to prevent him
from thus exhibiting himself. If it
be true that he has fashion of keep
ing brace of loaded revolvers within
easy reach when engaged in debate on
the floor, the sergeant-atarms should
hold himself in readiness to prevent
any serious consequences. If it be
true that he is accustomed TO conduct
himself in most disordcrly manner
while within the precincts of the SEN
ate chamber, the courtesy of the Sen.
ate" should he invoked to restrain
him. Don Cameron is not an inter
estiDg figure in the arena of American
craftsmanship, and, as a general pro-
position, the country is not disposed
to bear with him to any great degree.
He sits in the Senate the product of
the most thoroughly disreputabIe po.
litical "machine' in the land, aud the
special representative of the political
reprobate-now grown gray and ven
erable-who founded that machine"
and who happens to be his father.
He is, all in all, wiry, Shiny politi-
clan, possessed of an order Of intelli-
gence no higher than that appcrtain-
ing to the brute creation and devoid
of even a suggestion Of craftsmanship.
Such a man, so unfortunately placed,
should be content to keep quiet him
self and be left alone by Others. Ii
the discretion which would be relied
upon to prompt such a feeling has
been denied him, along with the other
benefcent qualities of which he Is
lacking, by nature, it should be en-
grated into his disordered system By
artificial processes. The United States
Senate cannot allow Don Cameron to
insult its members. He is in every
respect too contemplate a person to
be allowed any Of those extra-parlia-
mentary indulgences, for which .whis-

The Watehman is disposed to COM
plain because Judge Mayors district is
comprised, as it says, of the four coun-
ties of Clinton, Cameron, Elk and
Potter, the other districts should be
made larger and thus save one Judge.
lie would accomplish this purpose by
attaching Perry to Dauphin. In the
first place, he is in error in saying that
Potter is in Judge Mayors district,
which is numbered the 25th. Potter
is in the 4th district along with Tioga.
In the second place, he is in error in
saying that by attaching Perry to
Dauphin one Judge would be saved.
the fact being that there ARE now two
judges, Pearson, Of Dauphin, and
Junkin, of Perry, in those counties.
How, therefore, would he save one
judge by attaching the two in one
district? Dauphin, containing over
forty thousand inhabitants, must be a
separate district, and to attach Perry,
which contains less than forty thou
sand would simply be to di,franchi.e
the people of Perry, and give them no
choice in the election of q Judge.
Dauphin, with its large prcpondcrance
Of population, would elect both Judges.
and even the editor OF the Watcdmqn
will scarcely say that that would be
right.
But the editor Of the IFa'cLmqn

Imprisonment for making fraudulent

during this session Davis has either voted
with the Republicans or refrsined from
voting. The truth is, the contest over this
nomination relates to the Virginia election,
and for that reason the parties are divided
upon 1t. If the nomination was from any
other State, under the same circumstances,
it would not have consumed 10 minutes
The Democrats want to make this case
conspicuous, with a view OF calling the at
tention OF the Virginia Republicans to the
removal of men of their party from Office
in order to make room for R~eadjusters.
They hope by this means to influence Re-
publican votes. The Republicans stand
firmly by the nomination, in order TO IL
l~ustrate their sympathy with Malone, and
to indicate to his followers in Virginia
that they have the entire support OF the
Republican party.

SOCIAL LIFE IN MADRID.
spanish Gossip About the Royal
Household and Society.

London News.
Madrid 10 built on the spur Of the Mo.
rena Mountains, where they fatten out
into a red clay plateau of enormous ex-
tent. The city began itself ON o bluff
above the Tagus. 1t Is swept in Winter
by the tooth-like blasts Of the Sierras and
In Summer scorched by o tropical sun
For all this Madrid is gay and alluring.
The women are the most interesting fig.
ures. While the men go about in Winter
wrapped to the throat with their long,
picturesque cloaks, the women have moth
ing butt thin veil over neck and shoulders.
Society Is gay in a solemn, grandiose way.
The stately bolero is the common dance OF
the drawing-room, but lancers and quad
rifles have q place. The polka is not
suited to the dignifed carriage OF the
Spaniard, who takes after the Latin races
simply in his amours. Man, woman and
child are gossips. They sit in the
garnished cafes prattling scandal from
noon till midnight. The urban
~Spaniard never retires until after
midnight, and never rises until
noon. The cafe life lacks the color, va
riety and animation OF the French. While
the latter sips light beverages, reads the
journals and holds a sort Of social ssuhe-
drim, the Spaniard sits az often alone as
in company, moodily swallowing his black
coffee in great gulps. scowling at his neigh
bors and dreaming the night away. A rich
Spaniard is a rare sight. Generations Of
revolution and anarchy have done their
work. In the cities even well-to-d do people
would be considered poor in this country.
But as poverty increases Castilian pride
swells. The Court is the most ceremoni-
GUS in Europe and the code Of etiquette
the most rigid. Alfonso, who has had the
advantage Of aliberal education in England
and France, has s~triven, since his accession,
to abolish some Of the absurd ceremonial
Of q time when Spain ruled the world.
But he finds 1t q difficult Job. II not re.

ing trampled to death, the man who res
cued her was sentenced to death, but In q
