A special to the Pittsburg Uironi-
ole from Unioniown, dated March
26th. says that N. L. Dukes arrived
there from his step-father's Sunday
night. and Monday morning a COM
mittee of citizens waited on him and
presented him with the resolutions
adopted at an Indignation meeting
lately held. They also gave him no.
ii ce that he would have twenty-tou
hours within which to transact his
business and leave the town. If he
attempted to remain it is thought that
there will be trouble.

Fighting: for Peace.

The harder the Democratic bosses
try to talk themselves into harmony
the clearer does it appear that there
is very little hope of a reconciliation
between them. There are big bosses
and little bosses. city bosses, country
bosses and state bosses having
grievances to avenge. Their person.
al quarrels with each other are their
absorbing thought. Mayor Whyte
considers himself in honor and duty
bound to demolish Senator German;
George Cotton longs for the time
when the scalp af certain United
States senator shall bangle from his
belt 4; Germans main thought ia to

does not always listen to wise coun-
sci, or defer to public sentiment. He
appears to be surrounded by a group
of sycophants, who tell him only
what he likes 10 hear. and the true
state of public feeling is kept hidden
from him. Of all the misfortunes of
a public man, this is the worst. He
can never ascertain the sentiment of
the people when he listens to those
who bring him only favorable re-
ports, and repels those who tell him
the truth-however unpleasant and
bitter the truth may be. Mayor
Whyte has committed some serious
plumbers since he accepted the pres
ent Office. Many of his friends COM
plain that he is too obstinate, too self
willed, and does not always adopt
the methods most agreeable to his
friends. The people were opposed to
his predecessor in office because he
surrounded himself with a number of
men who aimed to control all the
municipal appointments, and this
brought about his overthrow. Mayor
Whyte's alliance with these city
managers after the tidal-wave of re.
form had swept him into Office, was
the first of series of mistakes. Once
bound to them, he could not escape
their grasp. One mistake led to an
other. and hence the people do not
look up to him with the favor they
did two years ago. The minor city
bosses are still more unpopular, and
the people are only biding their time
to have a reckoning with them

for three or four years, but it must be
finally settled. During the war the
tariff was increased to receive revenue
to maintain the government. AS
long as we export more than we i'm
port we are getting rich, because we
are getting more for our productions
than we are compelled to pay for
what we buy abroad"
Referring to matter personal to
himself, viz: his vote against the
Tariff Bill, Mr.. Urner said:
"When my name was called l saw
the bill was passed but, sooner than
see it defeated, l would have voted
for it, in spite of many of its faults.
| wanted all internal revenue taxes
abolished except on spurious liquors,
for internal taxes were a war meas
ure and ought to be repealed. / was
also opposed to the act on the consti-
tutional ground that it should have
originated in the House of Represent
tatives. Some men went into the
Republican party because they were
Union men and opposed to secession,
or were opposed to slavery; but they
are not all in favor of the cardinal
principle of the Republican party =
the protection of our industries,
Among those who were elected to
Congress there were several who
were elected as Republicans, but
were widely at variance with their
party on the question of the tariff,
and some of them are in the Senate.
If the Democratic party goes before
the people in 1884 in favor of free
trade, as l feel certain they will, they
will be overwhelmed at the polls ''

SATURDAY MARCH 81. 1883.

The N. Y. Times devotes one half
of its first page to interviews with
leading Republicans as to the chances
of the party in the coming campaign.
One and all are in favor of a union of
forces and reorganization where it
may be needed. There is decided
dissatisfaction in the Democratic
ranks, and by concerted action there
Is hardly doubt that New York will
soon again be enrolled among the sure
Republican states.

Hon. M. G.. Urner had quite an en-
thusiastic reception one evening last
week at the hands of the Young Mems
Republican club of Baltimore. A
large number of prominent members
ofthe party were present. Mr.. Urner
addressed the club at some length in
an entertaining manner, and aroused
agood deal of enthusiasm. Hisspeech
was very fully reported in our Balti-
more exchanges.
Mr.. Urner, in abiding to the report
that he had "retired from politics, !"
said:
81 have not retired from politics in
the sense of no longer taking an in
terest in The welfare of my country.
It is the duty of every intelligent
citizen to take an interest in thepub
lie matters of his country, and to study
them closely, and when he has deter
mined which party is most patriotic
to cast his lot with it. 1t is the duty
of every citizen to study mattersSof
public interest, so as to intelligently
support the policy of his party. There
have been great many important
issues in the past. The Republican
party has been an aggressive and ac-
tive participant in every prominent
measure during the last twenty years,
and it has sustained all the advanced
and progressive measures in that
time which have benefited this coun--
try" EApplause.l
Addressing himself to the two lead
ing questions of the day-Civil Ser
vice and Tariff-Mr. Urner said:
"With reference to civil service re-
form, l hope the effort will accomp-
lish. Although the measure is an
experiment, its administration is in
the hands of good men, and we will
wait anxiously to see what it accomp-
fishes. The great question of the day
Is that of tariff. 1t is maxim of the
Republican party TO stand or fall up
on the principle of protecting the pro-
duct of the American laborer. This
protection to American industries
must he supported until no party
will dare to set 1t aside. Applause.

will have free trade will be fought

tectives have been searching all over
for him, but no trace of him has az
yet been discovered. There is scarce
ly doubt that he has committed
suicide. AS yet, at the request OF the
family nothing has got into the pa
pers, since they fear that should he
be still alive and read abort the
search for him, he will certainly make
away with himself.
