THE Harrisburg Telegraph urges Hoyt
to resign. This is an original idea.

THE Democrats have brought out their
torches since the election is over. The
brass band sounds more melotloius since
the returns are in.
SAM F. BARR thinks there is no future
for the Republican party. Certainly there
is no use for his part Of it except to fur
nish subject for the coroner.
| A TRAMP in this state, chagrined at the
wholesale defeat Of the Republican party.
ended his life by suicide. His example
may be recommended for imitation to q
number Of political tran,ps whose occupa-
ton rs leeches on the body polite is row

THE flowers are still in bloom that grow
over the garden walls of politics. At Gen
Beavers home on Saturday night Demo-
cratic jollification meeting headed BY a
Democratic county chairman adjourned to
serenade the Republican candidate for gov
ernor. 1t was courtly compliment from
the victors to tho vanquisked.
THAT veteran humbug VIM. ID. Kelly,
| steps to the front to say that his party
deserved the chastisement and con the
whole the change in Pennsylvania will
provo beneficial. 1t is to Je hoped that
it has put an end forever to boss rule.
which was really the curse of the state.
The Democrats elected from Pennsylvania
are as good protectionists as you will find
anywhere. There is good deal of bun
combe about this free trade cry" Which
is all true, and nobody INDUCES in this
buncombe" more freely than Kelly.
SINCE the close of the term Of VIM. f.
Packer, last Democratic governor of Penn
sylvania, elected in 1857, the people Of the
state have had bitter experience of Repub-
| lican rule, with its leaders favOring the
most extreme power that could be attain
| ed by any one man. The battle for re-
form has long been going on, and reached
| its consurmation 1T last Tuesdays elec-
| ton in the choice of Governor Pattison,
who will we'll serve the people of tho
commonwealth By raising the standard of
public duty and honest reform. 1t is no
easy task, for he needs to expose and
eradicate the abuses Of over twenty
| years with fearless and impartial deter
| minatiOn.
THE Hon. Amos Townsend. present
| ,I,n,.
district. is being urged by his friends as
| tho strongest man who could be nominated
for governor of Ohio by the Republicans,
but MIR. Townsend says in his opinion Ben
Buttcrworth is tho strongest man available
for tie position. 1t is not known whether
the mo!als of Ohioars are very greatly re-
faxed; but it is justly feared that tic un-
savory frankncss Of Euttcrworth might
go great way in corrupt;Eg the morals Of
state. 1t will 40 doubt be decided, in
the event Of his nomination, to print. as 3
postscript upon bills announcing shat he
will speak, an earnest request that the
ladies' will please Bot come to hear him.
THE Philadelphia EceniaJ Ne'rs appears
to b2liGva that Gen. Beaver could mako a
successful! candidate for the vico i,resi.
dency il 1891. The Meas would, Of
course, give him its full. support, but if it
follows the .>t::lwart style of campaign
literature and Continues it's attacks upon
the Independent movement it is likely
that its words will be welcomed rather
more by the Democrats than anyone else.
Just now the Neses is venting it's spleen
upon the Independents whom ii clarac
terZes as &" ali weak, coHar,liy souls, who
whine about what might havo been done
if the party had only listened to them and
followed their wiso cUunsels.' The words
very much flavor of Gen. Beavers style
of speaking, which did not tend to in.
crease anybody's respect for the Stalwart
candidate.
