The state is being asked to pay alto
gether too much for the care of the small
pox patients. Every community that has
had case of the disease sends petition
asking to be reimbursed for doctors
bills, nursing, and consequential damages
besides. The result is that the bills foot
up to thousands of dollars. Every COM
munity is of right compelled to attend to
its own sick at its own expense. This is
done in all the cities of the state, and the
rural districts are certainly entitled to no
greater privileges.

A SENSIBLE SETTLEMENT OF A YEY-
ED QUESTION.

ED QUESTION.
The senate of France is composed of
sterner and more sensible stuff than the
chamber of deputies. At least, it is not as
easily frightened by the apparition of the
monarchy as the lower branch of the
French congress was. The committee of
that body, to whom was referred the bill
for the expulsion of all pretenders to the
throne, yesterday reported disappearing of
the measure in its entirety, and it is very
manifest that the measure will receive its
quietus in the senate.
The manifesto of Prince Napoleon as
sorting his right to the throne has created
more fright than harm throughout the
country. Indeed, it now looks as if some
good has been accomplished by the pro-
ceed1ng, for it has awakened republicans
from the lethargy into which they had fall
en- by showing them that the republic has
strong and active foes, ever on the alert
for an opportunity to work the overthrow
of the existing government. But even if
the demonstration had been far more i'm
posing and menacing than it was, the pas
sage of a law to exile all pretenders would
not have been wise or just. 1t is far easier
to control those who would undermine a
government when they are subject
to its jurisdiction than when
they are plotting in foreign countries
over which juris diction does not extend.
Surveillance over rebels in exile is very
difficult to maintain, but is an easy matter
at home, where the force of courts and leg
islative bodies have full sway.
The injustice of the proposition is in
the fact that the punishment was imposed
upon the innocent as well as the guilty.

WASHINGTON, d. c., June 20, 1883.
The weather is hot as blOzes here now,

Washington. But strange as it may seem,
the friends of the defendants who rejoice
with them in their escape are about us

is hardly a man Of intelligence in the
community who does not honestly believe
IN his heart that these men robbed the
Government Of large sums of money, but,
ueSertbelrss, many sympathi2s with
them, and want to see them get away with
the swag. These. of course, represent
pretty lax notions of official integrity, but

of the oflice-holaing or oiiice.seeking
classes, and would perhaps do the same
thing themselves if they had the chance
and the nerve. II is Interesting to note

PENNSYLVANIA POLITICS.

A writer in Harrisburg comments thus-
ly on the political outlook in the State;
The Republican State Convention will
meet in this city on Wednesday, July
18th, to nominate candidates for Audi
ter-Qenerai and State Treasurer AMI to
appoint u State Committee for enc year;
aud at no time within the history OF tue
Republican party has so little interest
at aohed to n State Convention as now.
As the Old Guard care nothing for these
two offices, but very much for the make
MP o! the State Committee, they will, in
d self-sacrifcing spirit to which they
have hitherto been strangers permit the
"dimple-chius' to grasp The shadow in
naming the candidates, while the Old
Guard will secure all there is Of sub
stance in Pennsylvania politics this yenr
by continuing tho control of the State
Committee.
Heretofore, with cash balance on
hand of three million dollars that was
seldom disturbed, the State Treasury
yielded harvest of sl00 0O0 annually to
the boys; and under the skillful farming
of a trained economist, like the late
Robt. w. Mackoy. it could safely be
counted on to return Sl50, 900 year to
the pool. All this has been stopped by
recent legislation;a a commission appoint
cd by Gov. Pattison has been selected tc
rupervise the investment of The treasury
surplus in United States bonds, or those
Of the Stale of Pennsylvania, aud t.
regulate the deposits of the public fund,
in banks ;of the CUmmonwealth; anC
under this radical change the Old Guart
are entirely willing that the Independ
ents shall name the State Treasurer.
For the office of Auditor General, Col
J. II. vanderslice of Philadelphia, Col
Crimson of Chambersburg, an interna
revenue agent appointed by Grant, ant
Col. J. A. II. Passmore of Pottsville ar

gates; but Senators Stewart, Lee, an
other leading Independents have eX
pressed desire to have Representaliv
Niles Of Tioga nominated, and it is quit
likely that Brother Niles, who is a Meth
odist preacher as well as politician, vii
bo nomiuated by acclamation.
For State Treasurer, the Hon. VIII
J. Hnlings, member of the Legislatur
from Venango county, is the only cand
date mentioned, and he, too, will douL'
less be nominated by acclamation. BIZ
the trouble will arise over the selectio
of tho State Committee. The Old Guar
want Cooper, with his red headed hop,
fulness and fealty TO Cameron, continue
in command as Chairman of the Commi
tee, because Of the power the place wi
afford in the primaries for delegates

exercise considerable influence in shaI
ing things for the Senatorial campNig
