phases of the difficulty have been from
time to time expounded by each side
before the supreme tribunal of the church.
How matters will terminate must continue
matter of conjecture in view of the
bishops denial of his alleged impending
removal.
PENNSYLVANIA is not Democratic
state any more than are Philadelphia,
Lancaster and Allegheny Democratic
counties, but a large majority of the peo-
pie of those counties and an over
wbelming majority of the people
of the state, want honest government
by the election of honest and competent
mel, regardless of their Republicanism or
Observation-Disclosures Times.
Whenever any portion of the Republi-
can party in this county shall declare for
"honest government by the election of
honest and competent men regardless Of
their Republication or Dsmocracy," they
will find the Democrats of Lancaster
county progressive enough to join
with them. But the professed Indepen-
dents here are regardful only for Republi-
canism and when Tom Davis could be
elected district attorney it is not the truth
to say that large majority IF the people
of this county prefer honest and compe-
tent administration, regardless ofparty, to
dishonest and incompetent Republican
government.

Who are the BOurbOnS {!

1t is very easy for Il class of self
styled independents " and professed
Reformers " to glibly assert that "the
one thing that las made despotic boss
rule possible in Pennsylvania is Bourbon
Democracy - and that this kind of De-
mocracy has been manifested by its nomi-
nation as candidates for state Offices of
"sccOnd raters, -" a long PERSISTENT dead
level of mediocrity." But upon an i'm
partial and honest examination of the
facts it is very difficult to see what the
Democratic party of this state, as Il
Whole, has done or failed to do to de-
serve any such reproach or to afford any
such excuse for the failure of Indepen-
dent Republicans to help it rescue the
state from dcspOtic rule. The Cambria
Freeman very forcibly reminds one of
these critics Of the Democratic party
that commencing with 1860, twenty
two years ago, and ending with 1878,
the candidates of the Democratic party
for governor have been as follows: Henry
ID. Foster, Geo. w. Woodward, Hester
CIymer, Asa Packer, Charles r. Buckalew,
Cyrus l.. Pershing and Andrew II. Dill.
No state in the Union has presented a
stronger array of able men for governor
than the Democratic party in Pennsyl-
vania to its infinite credit has uniformly
done since 1860. But even Mr.. Bucka-
lew himself, with all his conceded abil-
ity and exceptional fitness, went down
in the campaign of 1872, as Pershing did
in that of 1875, before the great military
name and fame of John F. Hartranft,
just rs Clymer in 1866 and Packer in
1868 had done in the presence of Il the il
lustri.,us military career of John W.

Discharged Oh Habeas Corpus.

John Richardson, of Columbia, who was
committed to the county Jail 4 few days
ago for drunken and dsorderly conduct,
was taken before Judge Patterson at 10
o'clock this morning on a writ of habeas
corpus. and was discharged. 1t appears
that Richardson, who has been for some
time past separated from his wife, met
her on the street and demonstrated against
her living at the house she occupied, as
the place was not reputable. Thereupon
she had him arrested and he was sent to
Jail. There being no evidence before
Judge Patterson that RichaI dsOn was
either drunk or disord srly he was dis
charged.

An Allegheny Boy Accidentally .ilIs HIn.-
self.
Frank Gumbcrt, seventeen year old
boy, shot himself dead at his home on
Federal lane, Allegheny. In the early
part of the evening he had been out play
ing ball, and when it became dark he went
INTO the house repairing to his own room.
Shortly aftcrward, at $50 o'clock, a pistol
shot was heard by his parents in the lower
part of the building, and rushing to
Franks room they found him lying dead
on the floor by the bed. The blood oozcd
out from a bullet hole in his temple, and
beside him lay 4 revolver. The weapon
belonged to his brother, and the parents
say it has been in bureau drawer unload
ed since New Year. The supposition is
that Frank loaded it up for sport yester
day evening, and while walking across tho
room stumbled and fell and the revolver
was thereby accidentally discharged. The
boy was the son of Charles Gumbert, a
shoe dealer

LOCAL INTELLIGENCE.
CUPID DESERTS u MAIDEN.

CUPID DESERTS - MAIDEN.
\ Breach of Promise Case In which Oi,l
Folks are the Participants.
Philadelphia Record.
A breach of promise case, which is
made dOubly interesting from the fact
that tho litigants have both passed be-
yond the ago when Cupid's darts are
most effective, was argued before the
supreme court yesterday and held under
advisemcnt. The recreant suitor is
Charles Markley, bachelor Of SO years,
residing in Maytown, Lancaster coun-
ty, and the offended maiden is
Eliza kcssering, a seamstress, aged
81 years, who, in pursuit of her call
ing, made frequent and extended visits to
Mrs. Hiestand's hotel, across the road
from the Markley homestead. Their carly
intercourse was of the usual country court
ship type, but after \ dozen visits, Miss
Kessering says, her lover lost his timidity
and one day in August, 1879. he abruptly
popped the question. Tho lady cOn-
sented, and the second Thursday of
February following was appointed for
the nuptials. The alliance was tho sub
ject of gossip among the country
folks, and was regarded as 4
"most extraordinary affair."" considering
the ripeness of the lovers. Miss Kesser-
ing claims to have made great preparations
for the wedding, and besides tho money
received from her afianced, she states
that she was the recipient of number of
presents, including i silver caster and u
dozen silver spoons which General Simon
Cameron gave to her when he heard of her
engagement. The general, she says, made
her acquaintance at Mrs. Hiestand's hotel,
where he frequently stopped. Everything
was progressing favorably until the Goth
of January, shortly before tho day fixed
for the wedding, when Miss Kessering
alleges that Mr.. Marklcy called on her
and said that he guessed he was
too old and too lame to get mar
ried. She replied that he ought to
have thought Of it sooner. 1t seems she
never spoke to him again, but some time
afterward brought her suit to recover
damages for breach of promise. At the
trial she testified to her suitor's ardency
for the time being and a sudden GOODNESS
at the breaking of the engagement. The
aged lover, however, denied that he had
ever promised Miss Kesscring to marry
her, and he claimed that he stopped visit
ing her because his father, then very
old man, was lying at the point of death,
and died about a month after the COOL
ness. He thought it would not DO right
for him 20 take the :" funeral baked
meats" from his fathers house to furnish
his marriage feast. The Lancaster county
jury gave he woman verdict for s997. rs
and Mr.. Markley appealed to the supreme
court.

Geary, who, as well as Hartranft, never
rose in civil affairs above the dead
level of mediocrity.' If Pennsylvania
has not had Democratic governor since
William F. Packer was elected to that
office in 1857, it is clearly not because
Democratic state conventions did not
| offer to the people for their suffrages at
each subsequent election a candidate
whose capacity was admitted and whose
honesty was beyond cavil or dispute.
Each of the seven candidates We have
named was first rater'-the very kind
of a man the Record now wants nomi-
nated-and all of them were defeated.
That however, was neither their fault nor
the fault of the conventions by which
they were nominated"
Manifestly the professed independent
Republicans of the state did not vote for
these men in sufficient numbers to elect
them they refused to vote for them,
only because, like Wolfe, they {" feared
Democratic ascendency" and preferred
Cameron ascendency. They are the
Bourbons, and until they make differ
ent choice they cannot expect different
results. The 4OO, 900 Democratic voters
of Pennsylvania cannot be expected to
ratify a ticket selected by $4,000 dissat-
islied Republicans. They will not do it
and they ought not to do it. Such ac-
tion would be only the shift of expedi-
ency, which in the end always works
disorganization and retards political re-
form. If the Democratic party puts up
honest men and declares for honest gov
ernment, it shows itself to he possessed
of principle and to be really progressive.
1t then has done it's whole duty and all
those who have this same end in view
can best promote it by supporting the
Democratic ticket. They will find 4
warm welcome awaiting them, and a
good place at the table, but not to the
exclusion of those who stood up for
Democratic principles when the new
comers were hunting through the Re
publican camp for Office, and never
raised tumult nor revolted from des-
potic leadership until they failed to get it.
