THE CAMERON CLAN.
The Prospects of Reconciliation Be-
tween the Republican Factions I'm
Pennsylvania.

WASHINGTON, December 1S.-There is a
good deal of talk about a reconciliation OF
the lately warning factions in Pennsyl-
vania, and the fact that Senator Don Cam
eron and Mitchell have been seen in close
converse recently. has given rise to the re-
port that the two Senators, under Presi-
dent Arthur's advice, have joined hands to
lead the Republicans of Pennsylvania out
of their present slough of despond. The
story receives further cOuntenance in the
fact that Mitchell is again frequent Wis
itor at the White House, and that appli-
cauts for office have been notified that re-
quests made through him will not necessar'
ily lead to their consignment to the Presl-
Dental waste baskets. 1t may be true
that President Arthur has under
taken the work of paCiiCation and that the
visit of Cameron pers to this city last week
had something to do with perfecting the
plan, but il will hardly work with lndepen-
dent Republicans of Pennsylvania so long
as the CamerOns are given prominent
part in it. Recent observations IN that
State as well as at the Capital 20 TO convince
me that the row among the Pennsylvania
Republicans will not end until the Came
rons are unloaded. That was the ayowed
purpose of Independents there in the last
campaign, and To that end they beat the
best Republican ticket ever nominated in
the State so far as the personnel OF candl-
dates was concerned. They are not likely
to stop short of the accomplishment oil
their original purpose now. Ian.
