THE BEEF WAR.

The excitement in New York over
the introduction of large quantities Of
Chicago beef sent on daily in refriger-
ating ears, continues to increase.
The ruling retail prices of meat as OBJ
tanned from several of the leading New
York shops, were at last account as fol-
lows:
Chicago beef. New York supply.
PorteThOuse steak.-.gc 4p9!Sc
SirlOin steak. .. ....... lStg3Oc 25,IZZc
Round steak ............l6c $50
Lower round steak-liGl5c li9lOc
The favor with which the Chicago
beef has been received is a reminder of
the scene at the London markets when
American beef was first sold there in
competition with the home supply. The
IStaa SAYS that in about six hours one
shop in Second avenue sold Chicago
beet over the counter to Ito persons,
independent of hundreds Of other orders
sent i'm. 1t is believed that prices viii
go still lower and that soon, for time
at least, the poor man can afford to
taste sirloin steak. 1t is rumored that
parties interested in New York killed
beef are forming q pool Of 81 1000 oC
with whi,h to break down Chicago
competition.

South Pennsylvania Railroad.
Green COUNTY, Democrat.

UFCtN OUutty DcHOCIut'
The engineer corps under the supervision
of Mr.. Campbell, the Chief, is still making
surveys in Washington county, in regard
to the location of this road through to
Wheeling from some point on the Monon-
gahela river. As we have hitherto re-
marked, there has been no definite location
of the route adopted in the construction OF
this line through the Southwestern part OF
Pennsylvania that is so far as the location
of the same relates to either Washington
or Greene counties.
The great consideration, however, in the
building of this road is to economist dis
lance aud expense, thus securing the short
est and least expensive line of travel be
tween the East and West. That this end
will be as practically accomplished by the
construction OF the road through Greene as
through Washington county is not denied
by Mr.. Campbell, the chief engineer, as we
are informed, consequently Greene county
to-day is as likely to bag this grand enter
prise as her sister, and the chances are
largely in its favor from the latest deyel'
opments not vet made public.

A PHILOSOPHERS OPINION Oh
AMERICA.

Mr.. HERBERT SPENCER, the cele-
brated English philosopher, who is now
on a visit to this country, but whose i'll
health has up to this time kept him in
semiseeluslOn, has given his impress
sions of our country, its people and its
institutions, to a friend, who has pre-
pared them for the press. The paper is
quite long.
Mr.. SPENCER praises the extent,
wealth and magnifieence of the cOuu-
try, but finds much to criticise. He
thinks We are losing our freedom,
while retaining its forms; that
our political machinery has lit
tie resemblance in its workings to
what was contemplated, and that an
organization Of professional politicians
has become the ruling power. He says
that he has always considered that the
Americans got their government by
happy accident, not by normal progress,
and that they would have to go back
before they could go forward. Events,
in his opinion, seem to justify his view.
America Is showing on larger scale
than ever before that paper eonstitu-
tons" will not work as they are intend
ed to work. However, he does not
think republican institutions a failure.
OF the future Of this country, MIR.
SPENCER says:
The world has never before seen social
phenomenal at all comparable with those
presented i'm the United StStes. A So
ciety spreading over enormous tracts,
while still preserving its political con-
tiuuity, Is new thing. This progressive
INCORPORATION Of vast bodies of
immigrants Of different nation.
alities has never occurred on such
scale before. No one can say how it is
all going to work out. Already you
have triumphed over one great trouble
and NAV reasonably hope to triumph
over Others which will doubtless arise
i'm yOur history. But think that what
ever difficulties Americans may have
10 surnount, and whatever. tribulations
they NAV happen to pass through, they
NAV reasonably look forward to the
time when they viii have produced a
civilization grander than any the world
has known.

WHO ARE WITHHOLDING ELECTION
BETgRN8e

twill be two weeks tomorrow since
the election was held In this State.
There are yet three counties Of the
Second District from which no official
reports ofthat electiorh have been sent in.
Two of these counties, viz, Mononga-
La and Preston, are within less than a
days distance from Wheeling.
Both of them are largely Republican
In politics, and both Of them gave large
Republican majorities for the RepnbI-
can candidate in that district.
These majorities have been announced
and published In the county papers OF
those counties and other papers of the
State.
They were large enough at the time
they were published, but are not large
enough now, to elect the Republican
candidate.
Why are they held back?
That's the question.
Naturally there is some speculation
and uneasiness in regard to the with
holding Of these records, consequent
upon the fact that the election of either
candidate now depends on the change
of few votes in any return.
Are the records of these counties in
responsible-in legal custody? If so,
why are the legal custodians so indiffer-
ent to their duty as to delay their trans
mission to the Governor?
Allowing five days for which to can
vass the votes, there has still been
eight days in which they might have
been forwarded and in the hands of the
Governor. One day is sufficient for
that, but thirteen days have passed
since the election and these reports are
not in.
There is some excuse for the county
of Tucker, as communication In that
territory is slow and tedious, Yet there
is really no valid reason why, with the
diligence due in such q matter, even
Tucker county should not have sent in
its official report.
Unless we are very greatly mistaken
in our estimate of both the candidates
in that district, each of them would
spurn to accept an Office to which he
was not fairly entitled. Neither do We
know that any of the officers of election
in those counties are not above sus-
pieiOn.
But we do know that somebody is
derelict in duty in not forwarding these
returns, and more than that, this neglect
of duty is calculated, under the circum-
stances to excite suspicion, whether I'M
justly or not.
We have had a free vote, now we
want fair count-and we want it ROW

Judge Deady's instruction to the grand
jury in the United States Circuit Court at
Portland, Oregon, on Tuesday last, that it
was their duty to indict offenders against
the law in regard to political assessments,
will advance the cause Of the friends of a
pure civil service one step further. 1t is
held in some quarters that the right OF the
candidate to part of the wages OF the office
holder is established and sanctioned by the
very nature Of our Democratic institu-
tions. Judge Deady's instruction is
fatal to this theory. He is by
no means of opinion that the members of
political party who happen to be office
holders are under obligation to pay the
election expenses Of candidates belonging
to the same party. He even goes so far as
to deny the legality of their doing so.
Whether he would approve a law putting a
premium on otfce-seeking by making it OBJ
ligatory upon the State to pay the election
expenses of persons DESTROYS OF being elect
ed TO salsried offices the Judge did not say.
II may be conjectured, however, that he
would consider office-seeking an evil to be
abated rather than encouraged.

IT looks as if the State Of Oregon
was about to adopt woman suffrage.
Both branches of the Legislature of that
State have recently ratified the propo-
sitioa to submit to popular vote the
question of woman suffrage amend
meRt to the State constitution. The
vote in its favor was unexpectedly
large. it being q yeas to nays in the
Senate, and AZ yeas to 8 nays in the
House of Representatives. The reso-
luton had, as legal preliminary, pre-
viously passed the Legislature Of 1881.
1t now goes to the people.
