The time has arrived in the history
Of American politics, that men have
become so dishonest and corrupt. until
there is nothing that they would not
stoop to. We honor a man who has

One colored man has held porto.
ho under our government, and with
more than what is commonly voted
credit to himself and the race, he truly
represents. The ice has been broken.
The next President of the United
States, will be republican, there is
nosort of doubt now about this. and
there is almost sure thing of the col

give dignity to his people, being one of
the cabinet of the republican

the White House assisted by almost
the solid colored vote of the country.

DUST TO DUST.
Funeral of robert Asa Packer.

All that was mortal of the late Robert
Asa Packer was laid to rest by loving
hands yesterday afternoon in the burial
place of his own choice, at TiOga Point
cemetery, in that beautiful country where
the waters of the Chemung and the
Susquehanna join on their way to
the sounding sea. Near tho new
and busy town, which he founded
of which he was the animating spirit and
buoyant hope, was laid dust to dust the
stricken form so long familiar and so late
ly dear to all classes of citizens who make
tho moral worth and the material devel-
opment of that portion of Bradford
county, Pennsylvania, just bordering on
New York and linked to it by the diverse
interests of the great Lehigh Valley
transportation and mining systems. In
the richly furnished library Of the stately
home of his creation, equipped with all
that art and refinement could saggest and
well-directed wealth could buy, his en-.
cofined body lay on Sunday and yesterday
until the hour of burial, to be viewed by
the respectful but never thinning throng
who came from all parts of the country to
take their last look upon the pale face
they had loved SO well and the cold, dumb
lips that had SO often spoken
words of charity and cheer. The
little town which he had built, and
whose people were nearly all in the en-
ploy, connected with or dependent upon
interests which have greatly developed
under his direction, showed it's signs of
mourning in the closed places of business
and the black stuffs which draped the
doorposts of every residence, but the deeper
evidences of grief were manifest in the
rueful countenances, tender speech, and
still more touching silence of groups which
gathered at every corner and thrOnged the
sidewalks. 1t was no holiday in Sayre.
The shops were shut the machinery
stilled the engines hushed their shrill
voices and the hammers quit their clangOr.
Long lines of workiugmen marched to the
home at whose door no one of them knock
ing had ever failed to find a friend. With
muffled drum and to mournful cadences
of the trombone the band which bore
his name and which his gener-
GUS purse had fitted out headed
this most pathetic procession of
the cortege. The country folk for miles
around drove in their conveyances to the
place which the improvements of their
dead friend had made q landmark of en-
terprise and progress in Bradford county.
Special trains from points between Phila-
delphia and Elmira, and other termini of
the roads with which h, was connected,
brought the friends of deceased from all
the walks of life to testifytheir appreciation
of his character in the various relations In
which they knew him. Most prominent,
of course, were the officials, superintend.
ents and employees of every grade Of the
railroads, transports and mining COM
panies which were the subjects of his
enterprise. The institution of learning
endowed by the princely munificence Of the
father, and which never failed to have the
generous benefaction and the patronizing
interest of his sons, was represented by its
learned faculty. They who knew him

VIII Not Sneak to HIS Father.

1t is said that there is a boy eight years
of age in Arkansas who has never been
known to address his father either direct.
ly or indirectly. The parents are highly
respected, and are people of some refine
ment. The strategy of the boy, to avoid
speaking to his father, is more than equal
to that of both his parent and that of the
other members of the family, who have
laid all manner of plans to force
him into single utterance of his fathers
name. Upon one occasion they planned
not to get him any boots until he asked
for them like the Others, but this was a
failure also, for he went on through the
snow with his bare feet just as though he
were in calfskin to his knees. He has a
profound respect for his father, and will
follow him about the farm for a whole day
at time.

The present House of Representatives
does not seem to know what it wants in
the tariff line it would be better, there
fore, for it to give up all idea of settling
the tariff. 1t would be well to have it
settled as early as possible, but if our
representatives confess their inability to
decide what their own opinions are upon
it, they are not the men who are likely
to make a settlement that will have a
reasonable permanency. The Republi-
can representatives seem to think that
they would like to have the credit of
wanting to arrange the tariff while they
avoid the responsibility of doing it..
They have bill sent to them by the Re.
publican Senate which they will have no
trouble in voting upon if they wish.
But they don't seem to wish it. They
pretend to be anxious and introduce a
