That I" Secret Set.up."

The Examiner, Z portion of whose
editOfs have been in Washington this
week, has the following special dispatch,
exclusively, from that centre of po.
litical intelligence:
The secret sct-up among Pennsylvania
Democrats is to make Randall the candi-
date for governor. He is anxious for the
position and believes tine Independent
movement will work to his advantage
He has his eyc on 1884. Randall's great
ambition is to be president, and he is
taking advantage of the times. Tilden is
with him. Can Editor Hensel deliver the
goods from Lancaster county?
The correspondent of our esteemed
and enterprising contemporary does not
enlighten its readers as TO who is engaged
in this "set-up" or how it comes that
what he declares to lie "secret' hap.
pens to be known to Stalwart editor,
while so many hundreds Of thousands
of Pennsylvania Democrats are in
utter ignorance of il. If "Penn.
Sylvania Democrats have any such
secret set-up" there must be so few
of them in the secret that their " set
up is likely to be very abortive. 1t is
now less than three weeks until
the convention meets, and the Ec-
dltiner's dispatch is the first intima-
tion we have had of this secret set.
up;'' if it is kept secret much longer il
will be apt to spoil. Democratic con-
ventions are apt to make very short
work of I" secret set-ups."
Weneed not add that we do not for a
moment credit the pretended informa.
tiOn sent to the Examiner from Wash
ington. 1t is not by any means certain
that the surest way to the Demo-
cratic nomination for president in
1884 is by the Democratic nomination
and election to the governorship this fall
in Il triangular contest. And if Mr.. Ran
dali has aspirations to the presidency
and governorship, or if his friends have
such designs for him, he and they know
very well that there would he no better
way to kill him off than to make up Il
secret set-up" in his behalf.
The truth is that nobody knows what
will be the outcome of the Democratic
state convention this year. A very large
majority of its members, we are satisfied,
will 90 to it, like those from Lancaster
county, uninstructed, unpledged and
uncommitted to any interest except that
of the whole party as that interest may be
made manifest when the representatives
of the whole party shall come together.
In this state of uncertainty the news
papers, the politicians and gossip-mong-
ers are bound to invent something. One
of their inventions was the Hancock
boom of a few days ago another is the
Randall! story in letter lying before

Us the INTELLIGENCER is gravely in
formed that Randall and Wallace are in
combination to nominate Turnkey;
from another source we are as positively
informed that Randall is committed to
Hopkins and a New York Herald in
terview with Mr.. Wallace in Pittsburgh
represents him as saying that Mr..
Hopkins was a good man to carry the
standard of the Democrats in the cam
paign this fall. With the dissensions
in the Republican ranks said he, we
are likely to win this fight, and we all
want to see a man who can unite the
party and poll the full vote nominated.
Is not Mr.. Hopkins such a man -"
From all of which variety of report
and versatility of invention we infer
that Mr.. Wallace and Mr.. Randall and
other Democrats of prominence and in
fuence are disposed to let the state con-
vention exercise its own wisdom and
free choice and from what we know of
the composition of the convention that
is just what nobody can prevent it from
doing.
As to the senatorial delegate from the
XIII. district, lie says that he has never
undertaken TO deliver any goods to
any man or any mans man; that he
has no 'secrets" from his cOnstitu-
ents and engages in no" set-ups" which
are not frankly avowed day after day
| in the columns of the INTELLIGEN-
GER. Whenever designated by the par
tiality of the local Democracy to repre-
sent them in the general councils of the
party, he declares that it has been
his pleasure and privilege to ascertain

ents and to conserve the best interests
of the whole party, and that there is

The Ecening Telegraph voices i very
general sentiment when it rises to protest
against Mr.. Cessna's proposition that Gov.
Hoyt shall cali an extra session of the
Legislature for the purpose of redistrict-
ing the state and thereby get rid of GER
tain features of the "present situation in
Pennsylvania" which the Honorable John
admits to be exceedingly critical and
perilous." Our contemporary points out
that all the roosters in the state are anxious
in tho extreme that the governor shall
take this step, and gives as reason for
their solicitude in the matter that an extra
session would accomplish the double pur-
pose of putting money into the pockets of
some of our most needy professional poll.

Star Route Trials.

WASHINGTON, August 18.-Mr.
Bliss resumed his argument in the
Star Route cases to-day, and contin-
ued his reviews and analysis of the
evidence relating to tie routes set
forth in the Indictment He went
into the history Of the expedition of
the routes with gre t particularly,
pointing out IN each case the large
discrepancy betw, an the stock ac-
tually employed upon the route and
the number set out IN the co l.
tractors affidavit. He showed how
this discrepancy had invariably re
sulted in benefit to the contractor
and great loss to the Department.
He then devoted some time to a
detailed examination of the
petitions upon which the expeN
dition had been ordered, and
endeavored to show that they had
been altered after their arrival III
Washington. In conclusion he
summed up the facts which he
thought The government had proved,
and expressed his belief that the
jury, as men who had taken an oath,
who desired to stand we'll before
their Maker, must find a verdict
that the government had made out
its case, and that the defendants had
been guilty of a gross and out
rageous conspiracy to defraud the
United States.
At the conclusion of Mr.. Bliss
speech the court adjourned until
Monday, when Mr.. Fuller will argue
for the defense.

Quarantine Regulations Violated.

New YORK, August 19.-Dr. Walter
DeForest, city sanitary superintend-
ent, caused general alarm to be
sent out from the police headquart
ers on account of the violation of
the quarantine regulations, by two
or three small Southern coasters,
and search was made for the vessels
along the wharves until six clock,
at which time they had not been
found. DIR. Smith, health officer of
the port, said that on Thursday he
was informed that several vessels
had gone up to the city without
anchorlng or waiting for an inspec-
ton, The quarantine regulations
had already been violated several
times in this manner by small ves-
sells that came up from Southern
ports, principally from the Carolnas,
loaded with fruits. He says he has
given them several warnings already,
and the next time that he caught the
offenders he would have them pun
ished as the law prescribed. He
was nov going to enforce the rules
strictly, rs he had heard that about
fifty vessels were being laden with
timber at Pensacola, where yellow
fever now prevails.
