PrOdigal Stewards Return.

Senator Stewart has gathered himself
back into the Stalwsrt fold again and
the shepherds on the PENNSYLVANIA
hills are rejoicing with exceeding Joy.
There is nothing too sweet that they
cannot say of the man whom they so
bitterly assailed last year. Having con.
sented to an interview, the character of
the opinions he would express being
thoroughly understood, he proceeds to
deliver himself after the manner of a
school master who imagines he has Sc.
cured discipline by whaling two or three
of the biggest boys. He forgets, how.
ever, that these same boys, though ap-
parently humble and contrite now, and
forgiving enough to bring him fragrant
nosegays and boxes of ripe cherries,
may be laughing in their sleeves all the
while and thinking of the days to come
when they will pounce upon him again
and flatten him out for all time.
Senator Stewart in crawling back to
the Stalwsrt camp, takes occasion TO
criticise Governor Pattison in way
which makes Senator Stewart very ridi.
culous, especially since it is only short
time ago that he was leading in crusade
against political bosses and in the al
legged interests of the people. He says
of Pattison that it is his misfortune that
he has been siding more with the people
than his party since his installment into
office, and that in consequence his party
is greatly disappointed in him. That
we may not misrepresent Senator Stew.
art we quote from the interview:
"Then Governor Pattison has
nothing to strengthen his party"
mo, sir. lie has weakened 81,
not think it has been his
strengthen it. He seer ptp'' 80
thought much of pa =. ~. no' - ~ 49,
been law unto hin ,V, ou' - nave
-. .his is what the great
iptere.t.p sfender Of the "peoPIe's $
uo,Lno.., I year declares now to be
-. In other words because
xorvt r Pattison has been doing the
no,. .hings which Senator Stewart an.
4nced in interviews and from the
lump last fall an honest Executive
ought to do, Senator Stewart has now
the brazen efrontery to denounce as
bad for the party.
What change is this that has come
over the virtuous Stewart Why does
he so quickly forget his own utterance'
and teachings of last year ? Why does
he condemn Governor Pattison for cater
ing to the interests OF the people more
than partyl
Involuntarily Senator Stewart pays q
high compliment to Governor Pattison
lie elevates him in the thought Of the
masses who control the Democratic
party. lie shows him to be the sincere
and honest Executive he promised tc
be-a servant of the people and not the
obedient instrument Of the party. Sen
ator Stewart knows what befalls Re
publican Office holder who dares to dis
obey party commands. lie knows what
humiliAtions have been endured in the
past by those Republicans who have fol
a moment betrayed the party for the
sake of the people. Strange words tn 4
of Senator Stewart. Strange because
coming from such hot reformer as h'
has professed to be. But like Ephrain
of old he appears TO be irrevocablI
joined to his Republican idols UniO,
Ledder.

maintain its consistency, Dorsey and

replied that 1t was, and turned to walk
away, when the Judge said: Don't you

was that he had cast both together, but
1t was too late then to separate them, as
they had been dropped into the box.
When the vote was counted, this ticket
was not included but was laid on the

the fact lin his estimatiOn) that he had
gained one vote in WellsVille.
There was another ballot similar to
the above, Of two tickets folded together

were laid aside and not counted. Why
was not that fact certified to2 Also
mention might have been made of the
fact that ticket was voted and counted
for Mckinley that was marked by pencil
all over the back of it, which was Illegal
in the strict sense of the law.

acted impartially in counting the vote,
and did what they believed to be their
lawful duty in reference to every ticket I;
but counting great number of badly

Cured, or wrong entry made on the

Minnie Shergwin, June 20, 1882. He is
said to have made a statement to the
effect that his testimony on the stand
that he and Henry James, his rival, had
been improperly intimate with the girl,
was false. He said on the day of the
murder he left the house ahead of Min
ME and James, and laid in wait for
them until he saw them coming along
the canal bank. Then he stepped up be,
hind them, and presented a pistol at
James head. James fed. The girl
seized Treglown. He fred, shooting her
in the mouth. They struggled. Both
fell into the canal. He freed himself
from her hold in the water, and leaving
her TO drown, swan ashore.
The body hung mOtionless for forty
seconds and then the hands, which had
been clasped, were stuck out at right
angles to the body. The shoulders jerked
convulsively and the legs twitched four
OF five times. After this all movement
ceased. TreglOwn was the fifth person
hanged In Morris county. After mid
night he slept very little. Shortly after
10 a. m, the Sheriff announced all was
ready. The hanging was completed
without any excitement.

BIGOTRY REBUKED.
Tho Presbytery of Erie Rights n GrIevoua
Wrong.

"EOhBs
ERIE, Pa, April ia few weeks ago
your correspondent furnished the details
of an act Of church bigOtry unparalleled
In this county. For preferring neigh
boring pastor to perform the burial rites
over her dead mother, a young lady OF
high social position was eX-cOmmnni-
Gated by the pastor of her own church
(PTesbyterian(, and in addition TO being
called upon and brutally berated by the
Jealous divine and bigOted elder, while
yet prOstrated with grief by her bereave-
ment, she was deprived of her Sunday
school class, and subjected to the most
rigid church discipline. The details were
so outrageous that many were inclined
to doubt the truth of the report, refusing
to believe that men protesting to he
Christians could be capable of such
dastardly conduct, and clOthe it with the
sanctity Of the words in the name of
Jesus Christ, amen" Here is the sequel.
The Erie Presbytery has been in session
for some days, and among the business
before 1t was review of the case In
question. The Presbytery marked it's
sense Of the outrage by ordering the
church records Of the young lady's
punishment to be expunged the censure
and admOnition to repent and be saved
was removed. and she was ordered to
be fully restored to membership and
good standing In the church. The action
satisfactorily demonstrates to a disgust
ed community that Presbyterianism is
not accountable for the bigOtry and in
humanity OF few.-Cleveland Leader.
