GEN. BEAVER makes a sorry specta-
Gle of himself when he boasts in his
speeches ON the stump, as he recently did
at Bristol. in Bucks county, that his ma
joritywill not be less than fifty thousand.
Is he so completely the victim of delu-
sion as to suppose that he can deceive
intelligent men with such airy nonsense,
in the face Of the fact that his party in
this State is split, as by wedge, into
two separate and distinct parts ? Gen.
Beaver is known to be a strict temper
ance man, otherwise such preposterous
claim would admit of but one eXplana-
tiOn. It is an old adage, however, that
a drowning man will catch at a straw.

CHAIRMAN COOPER has been bOaSting
gleefully that the Labor Greenback tic

To a newspaper reporter the other day

drawn mainly from the Democrats. In

He hired men to organize Greenback
lodges and paid his agents to get Demo-

The laboTing men of Assembly Ga of

Reselred, Thatwe, the members of Assem-

against all such attempts as prejudicial to
the honor Of our order, to the cause Of free

ReSolUed, That we advise all true knights

mia to repudiate and spurn all unhOiy advan-

If Democratic leaders and newspapers
all over the State properly sound the
alarm the paid enissaries :" who are

scared off. Political tricks and chican-

IT is charged in Washington, says the
Philadelphia Times, that Hubbell is
spending too much of the money con-
tributed by clerks and scrub-wOmen to
secue the denomination of Keifer and
Robson. This is the natural Stalwart
use Of the money, bat it is not exactly
the use designed by the contributors,
very few of whom would care to see
either KeifeT or BObesOn returned. It
will be calculated to make disturbance
if this campaign fund is to be used in
this way, to secure the nomination of
SUalwart favorites instead of being re-
served to aid the election of Republican
candidates, regardless of faction. The
machine, however, understands itself,
and it not only wants to get Repu bill
cans, out prefers to get the Stalwart
kind

PATTTsoN's RECORD.

When Robert E. Pattison, the Demo-
cratic nominee for Cover nor, entered
the Controllers Office in Philadelphia in
1873. the debt of the city was over sew
enty-three millions of dollars, and for
ten years prior to that the average year
ly increase of the debt had been 50, ,622,
405. The cost of the departments for
the four years prior to his election aver
aged SO, 314, ,5S6, and the tax rate ranged
from ?. Is to 2, on an ascending sci lie,
During the first year of his incumbency,
the debt had been reduced five millions;
the cost of the departments had aver
aged S7,O19,051, and the tax rate has
ranged from 2. 10 to l. 95, on a descend.
ing scale, the rate for 1888 being still
less, l. 30. The Controller could truth
fully say in his last annual report:
The burdens of the taxpayers are being

JUDGE PERSHING's POPULARITY -
The following is the letter addressed by
large number of leading members of
the Schuykill county bar to HOu. G.. l..
Pershing, President Judge of the courts
of that county, and his reply. of which
brief mention was made in our last issue:
DEAR SIR: The undersigned members of
the bar, recognizing the ability, diligence
and impartiality that you have displayed in
the discharge of your duties as President
Judge of this judicial district, respectful lly
request that you permit your name to be
presented to the people for re- election to the
position which you have so acceptablv HE'D
during the last ten years. We believe that
the judicial Office should be above all mere
partisanShip, and that as the peoples can
didate, irrespective of the action of al pOliti-
cal conventions, your services in behalf Of
the community. by which peace and good
order to an extent never before known have
been secured throughout the entire county,
will meet with grateful recognition.
This letter was signed by fifty-four
attorneys. Judge PeTshing made the
following reply, unper date of July 20
GENTLEMEN am in receipt of your com.
munication requesting me to permit my
name to be presented to the people Of Schuvl-
xiii county for reelection to the Office of
President Judge. MANY citizens throughout
the county have orally or in writing made
Ile same request. As JnlS movement Is in
harmony with my own wishes on the subject
! herewith give my consent and refer the
question TO the people in the exercise of their
Individual rights or action through such po-
liticai organizations as they may prefer for
their decision at the ballot box. I cordially
subscribe to the doctrine that judicial office
should be above all paTtisanship. I have
faithfully cndeavOTed during the time | have
acted as President Judge to carry out this
principle i'm its integrity. I am pleased to
note that your communication is signed bV
gentlemen of prominence in each of the eX-
istiug political parties. Should the voters of
Schuylkill county again honor me with a
majority of their suffrages shall regard it
as my highest obligation to devote my time
and what ability L may possess to the dis
charge of the responsible duties of the trust.
Coming among the people Of this county ten
years ago an entire stranger to them I en-
tered on the judicial Office under peculiar
embarrassments. Time and acquaintance
have to a great extent removed these out of
the way. The experience gained by these
years of hard labor should and I have no
doubt will the better qualify me hereafter
for an intelligent and impartial service on
the bench. Thanking you for the very fat
tering terms in which you have addressed
me, am, etc.

THE English holders of Virginia
State bonds held a meeting in London
not long since and decided to address a
memorial to President Arthur drawing
his attention to the facts attending the
repudiation of the solemn obligations
of Virginia by the Legislature. and
praying the assistance of the Federal
Government to enable the bondholders
to vindjcate their claim to be reimburs-
ed for their advances. 1t is fair to as
sumo that these London bondholders.
in deciding to send this appeal to Mr..
Arthur to save them from the repudia-
sion projects of Malone and his gang of
freebooters had before them his letter ac-
cepting the nomination for Vice Presi-
dent, in which the following famous
paragraph occurs:
There is danger i'm intrusting the control
OF the whole law-making power of the Gov.
ernmeLt to a (DemOcratic) partv which has
in almost every Southern State, repudiated
obligations quite as sacred as those to which
the ia ith OF the nation now stands pledged -
Thus wrote Chester A. Arthur when
he was candidate for the Vice Presi-
dency, but no sooner did he become
President than he began to use the Off
cial patronage of his position to strength
en- Malone in Virginia and enable him
to build up party avowedly pledged to
repudiate her State debt. It is the dark
est spot on Arthur's career as President
and one that can never be washed out.
50 far as the bondholders are concerned,
they might just as well have addressed
their memorial to Malone himself, in
stead of ID Arthur Their appeal would
receive the same attention from the for
mer as from the latter.
