WEDN ESDAY, JUNE 6, 1883.
HhiDWreck Ahead.

The rock ahead which threatens de-
struction to the Democratic party is the
tariff. The tree trade wingot the party,
by far the largest wing, is becoming
alarmed as the Democratic craft nears
the rock, and there is an evident furling
of sails and damping of fires as its out
lines become palmer in the distance.
The fiery Watterson, of the Louisville
Courier Journal is not so fiery now as
she contest comes nearer and grows
warmer. Republicans have enjoyed the
sight and naturally view the entangle-
nent Of their adversaries with pleasu-
aable cOmplacency. But though there
has been toning down of fiery ardor
amongst free trade advocates, il is only
for a purpose. There is, however, sutti-
Cient spirit left to outline an interesting
contest for the Speakership of the next
House of Representatives between the
free trade and protection wings OF the
party. Representative Carlisle leads
the free traders and Mr.. Randall the
protectienists. Some time ago the free
traders were at the front and numbered
fully three-fOurths of the party. 1t was
then when Watterson loudly blew his
trumpet summoning his free trade war
riors to form the ranks Tor an aggressive
free trade campaign and the Charleston
News and other free trade organs re-
echotd the bugle blast. Then an avowed
free trader like Mr.. Carlisle, Mr.. Black
5,lrn, Mr. Cox Or Mr. Hewitt must be
elected Speaker, but never Sam Ran
dali. 1t was generally understood that
under no circumstances could the cleo
zion of Samuel j. Randall be tolerated
without open revolt on the part of the
free traders. The New York Herald
was in receipt of letters from Democra-
tic member of Congress sufficient to ill.,
sure the election Of a free trade Speaker,
but the Herald sees things little diff
ferently now and is frank enough to al
init that the party must inevitably split
upon the tariff rock ahead, notwith-
standing the toning down of the Lead
ars. That paper plainly sees and admits
defeat i'll the future, no matter whether
the free trade or protection wing of the
party is triumphant. The plain truth
of the matter is that the Democratic
party must spit on the tariff business.
1t is preposterous to suppose that the
working meH belonging to the party
will vote the bread out of their mouths
for the sake of getting "A Democratic
i'resi cent, and it is preposter0us TO
think that the red Bourbons, who hat Z
lnudsiii mechanics, will bend 10 pruter.
tlOn BECAUSE the manufacturers and
lheir millions OF work meu desir" them
to dose. Meanwhile Republicans >mi e
while the Democratic ship approaches
the rock upon which il must inevitably

THE HARRISBURG brute>,' in the
shape OF a base ball club, must have
been ashamed Of their actions on Mon
day in the championship game with
the Quicksteps, and yesterday, when
the exhibition game was played little
more decency and fairness was ob,erv-
ed. The umpire only allowed the bruteS
the lead by one run, when no doubt, by
fair umpiring, the Quicksteps would
have led by several runs. If these
ruttians are not turned out Of the asso-
citation, it is about time they were paid
back in the same manner when they
play on other grounds, but the diicul-
ty would be to find another club in the
association so despicably mean and de
graded AS to act the rutfian and bully
and to find an umpire who could so
naturally cheat as this Harrisburg
fraud

Whilst we do not think that those
who are possessed of real estate make
the best Councilmen, we do think that
while the law requires City Councilman
to be real estate owners within the city,
they should be real bona-tide owners,
possessing property in their own name,
paying taxes thereon and enjoying the
eInoluments thereof The manner in
which some persons make themselves
real estate owners in order to qualify
themselves for some office Of trust, hon
or and responsibility, for instance to be
a city Councilman, in any other bust
ness relations of life would be glazing
fraud Fin making contracts with in
dividuals, involving credit and requir-
ing the payment of money, such preten-
ces of ownership of real estate in order
to secure such contract would plainly
be false rretences, and the person so
practicing such deceit would be indict-
able for a criminal offence before the
law, and if convicted would be sent to
prison. How much less fraud is it to
practice such imposition upon corpora
tionS which have no tongues to protest
where the expenditure of hundred =
Of thousands of dollars are involved "
Here is the commencement of another
fiscal year in the city government.
Nearly halfa million of dollars are to
be expended by the City Council, and
the law requires, in order that the city
may have some protection, that the per
sons spending such money shall have
something tangible besides personal
property, that could be removed, at
stake. 1t requires that our city rulers
shall be owners of real estate, subject to
ia <ation, that they themselves may feel
the burthpns of an injudiciouS eXpendi
ture of money if any should be made,
We are not arguing that this is a
wise provision of law, tor We are rather
inclined the other way, but We dc
maintain that, while this is the law, it
should be strictly and honestly carried
ont. We freely admit that better mem
bers of the City Council who are not
freeholders are elected, than many who
are freehOlders, but that does not make
them any the less guilty of Il practice
which has, through use, become COM
mon, and yet view it in any aspect ii
presents, is no less guilty evasion OF
the real purpose Of the law, and if prac'
ticed in other relations of lite, would be
looked upon as fraud.
What is real estate owner? We dc
not know that we have seen any detini.
| ton for it, but common senSe comes tC
our aid, and tells us that the man who
is in possession of an umrecorded, unas
Sessed, transient deed, conveying to hin
a few feet of land in marsh, the bot
tom of cellar, or the bottom of well
and to be held by him only as shan
and a pretence for specific purpose, il
not the kind Of real estate owner con
templated i'll law Us qualification TO
membership in the City Council. On
par with such owners Of real estate ar
straw bal securities, which are only
compliance with the wording of the Law
while the substance cannot be fOunt
when wanted.

strange anomaly something that eau

scope of argument. British ire" trade
was one Of the principal causes of the
humiliation of Ireland and yet what do
we see in this country? Almost the

A prominent Illinois gentleman, who
was one of Abraham Lincoln's contelnpo.
raries, says that he knows that when Lin
coin was engaged in the practice of law
at Springfield, he prepared book deny
ing the inspiration Of the Bible. While
the book was yet in the manuscript Lin
Coin became a candidate for the legisla-
ture. A friend hearing Of it, begged of
him to destroy the manuscript, as it
would, if published, ruin his political fu-
ture. Lincoln, after some deliberation,
complied with this request. If the book
had been printed, it is certain he never
would have been the nominee Of the Chi

before his candidacy for the presidency,
his views underwent radical change, as
the result Of thorough investigation.
