1t Should Not BE Necessary.

EckloyB. Coke representing the Luzerne
and Lackawanna district i'm the state
Senate, has offered rewards aggregating
81 500 for the convictions of all who in
terfere with an honest poll in his district
at the coming election. He says that in
doing this he is following the example of
the Philadelphia Committee of One
Hundred. Mr.. Coxe's offer is unobjec-
tionable and commendable, though we
regret that he should feel that there was
any necessity for it. 1t does not speak
well for our institutions of justice that
it should he thus expedient for indi.
vidual citizens to offer rewards for the
detection of offences against the election
laws. We cannot deny that such offers
are necessary, however much we may
affirm that they should not be. Vigilant
officers of the law would render them
unnecessary; but We do not enjoy such
vigilance anywhere from those who
ought t. exercise it. The fault runs
down from the bench to the lowest officer
of justice. There is not that hearty co.
operation among them for the preserya-
tion of the integrity of the ballot which
is needed to secure it. In our town Just
now We know of the stealing of tax re-
ceipts and they are found in the hands of
voters, but no one is yet in Jail. The
stimulus of a reward in money seems to
be needed to move the wheels of justice.
1t is scandal that it should he so. It
is reflection upon every man who is
commissioned to keep the peace of the
commonwealth within its borders. With
good men holding these commissions
this scandal would not exist. The laws
suffice, but the laws executors are INSULT
cient.

rho Reception TO-Nlghs to tho DemOcrati
Candidate tor Governor.

The reception Tonight to tho Democratic
Candidate tor Governor.
The Democracy of the city and county
will to night have the pleasure Of behold
ing their candidate for governor, Robert
E. PattisOn, whose name and fame as the
honest controller Of Philadelphia made
his recent Journey through the state ono
series of OvatiOns. The reception that will
be rendered him tonight at the hands of
the local Democracy will no doubt COM
pare favorably with tho enthusiastic out
pOurings of tho masses that have every.
where greeted him. His manly conduct
while guarding the finances Of Philadel-
rhia, the vain efforts of his political
enemies since his nomination to soil his
sp0tless character and the clear cut,
logical acumen Of his deliverances on his
his brief journey through the state, have
created 4 pardOnable curiosity among the
thinking men of all parties to sec and hear
him whom the ringstcrs of Philadelphia
feared and respected.
Not only will the Democratic guberna-
torial candidate address this evenings
mass meeting, but there will be also in a.
tendance Pbiladelphia's young senator,
James Gay Gordon, Charles w. Carrigan,
esq.,, of the Philadelphia bar, who has
grown old in Democratic campaign ser
vice, and w. U. Hensel, esq, state chair
man. The distinguished party will arrive
on tho 7:4O train from Philadelphia, and
will DO met at the depot by tho committee
Of reception of tho Young Mems club and
escorted to the baroucae in waiting. Tho
escort will then be formed on Chestnut
street in the following order:
City Band.
Col. Fordney and staff.
Young Mems Club.
Carriages containing Robert E. PattisOn,
Speakers and others.
The Ward Delegations in Their Order.

The line of march will be down North
Queen to East King, thence to the court
house, where open order will DO formed
by the staff and Young Mems club, per-
mitting the distinguished guests to enter
the court house at the head of the line.
1t must not be forgotten that tho seats
to the left Of the bar, usually occupied by
petit jurors, have been reserved for ladies'
and their escorts,

HEADQUARTERS
PENSIONERS LEAGUE,
LANCASTER, Pa, Oct. Z, 1882.
The board of directors of the Pension.
ers' League met in grand session and
adopted the following resolutions
1st. Resolcsd That in General Beaver,
rs a candidate for governor Of Pennsylva-
MIA, VIC recognize 4 true friend OF tho PEN
siOner, being pensiOner himself, which
fact alone should make US SEQ our own in
terest and laying aside all party lines.
work for his election.
We should not lose sight Of the fact that
our interests can only be preserved by
supporting the friend of the soldier. That
the regular Republican ticket is tho only
safe guard to our interests in this CAM
paign.
We would ask what tho Independents
have done for us as pensioners? Not a
single act have they done io Congress, or
out Of Congress that should bring them a
single vote from our ranks !; and therefore
we cal! upon every pensioner and applicant
for pension, and all friends of the pension
er, to rally and work with heart and main
for the election OF General Beaver.
End. Resoloed, That we should not lose
sight Of the fact that the Democratic
party, north aud south, is united rs before
the war and whilst there may be some
Northern Democrats we'll disposed toward
the soldier, remember that the Southern
Democrats are in tho majority and over
ruling any good intentions that the minor
ity may have toward the soldier therefore,
taking these few facts into consideration
We should readily see that it is to our in
terests to vote and work for the election of
tho whole Republican ticket.
3rd. Res0lued, that We use our utmost
endeavors to bring out our friends at the
election on the second Tuesday Of Novem-
Der, in support of tho Republican con-
gressiODal candidates.
4th. Rssoloed, That we also give our
hearty support to the candidates in our
senatorial districts, as these men will hold
over in Office and have voice il selecting
q United States senator in 1884.
5th. Res0lred, That these resolutions
be sent by mail to two or more members
of our league in every voting district in
the state of Pennsylvania.
BY order Of the executive committee.
JOHN A. WALTERS,
Secretary.

PRttisOn's Good Taste.


Controller Pattison, the Democratic can.
didate for governor of Pennsylvania. has
just given an exhibition of. good taste
which is rare in candidates for public
Office. The Good Will fire company of
Altoona, being in Philadelphia in attend
ance at the Bi-Centennial, communicated
to Mr.. Pattison their intention to tender
him a serenade, in reply to which that
gentleman returned cordial thanks. but
earnestly asked that the intended compli.
ment be omitted, assigning as q reason
that the Bi.Centennial was an occasion in
which all the people of Pennsylvania have
and feel an equal interest and he thought
it should not even appear that festivities
had been diverted to personal or party
ends. Mr.. Pattison was quite right but
he viii find few imitators among modern
politicians.

An interesting story comes from Gaines

ewife was allowed to visit him frequently.
On Saturday night she asked for and OBJ
tanned permission to stay all night in his
cell. Next morning the jailer turned out

Osborne. A few minutes later little
child appeared at the door with some
articles OF clothing and said that Osborne

capped by her strategy. She was released.

A significant thing connected with the
Republican Convention of today is the
fewness Of the candidates. The en-
dorsemeRt of the Convention is re-
garded az equivalent to an election, and
several Of the Offices are desirable and
valuable in the extreme. And yet for
the four principal offices there are really
but four candidates, or one apiece. Mr..
Harris, for Auditor, is, we believe, in
the field alone; Judge Hall, for Probate
Judge. the same; Captain Hill, for
Treasurer, the same, and the same Of
J. H. McGraw for Sheriff. There ia
reason, though, for this. These men
now occupy the offices for which they
are candidates. They have been tried,
and not found wanting. We regard it
as the safest of assertions that Wash.
ineton Territory never had four Offices
filed by men moro worthily and more
acceptably than have these four offices
in King county been filled by Hessrs.
Mc0raw, Hall, Harris and Hill. The
people know them, and the absence Of
opposition to them in the Convention is
only to DO regarded AZ an acknowledge
ment Of this character.
