The New Republican Move,

When the Republican campaign was
first inaugurated there was solid move
all along the line in two directions. The
hrst was the assertion that the Repubh-
can candidate was the representative of
vigorous foreign policy. The second
was a united effort to force upon the
Democracy the tariff issue. Both moves
have resulted in failures most inglorious.
The first melted away like mist before
the sun as soon as Blaine's cowardly
neglect OF the Irish suspects and his
otiicious meddling in the Peru Chill
trouble were shown up. 1t was dropped
with the celebrity that marks the descent
of a hot brick taken in the hand un
suspectingly. Then orders were given
out to hammer away at the tariff.
Statistics showing enormous progress in
the country under Republican rule were
complied and the stump was filed with
orators, claiming untold benefits con
ferred by the Republican party on the
workingman. But hole was pricked
in this bubble by the terrible business
stagnation prevailing everywhere. As
Gen. Negley appealingly said 10 Oliver
Bros, q Phillips, of Pittsburg, when a
short time ago they announced a reduc
tion of twelve and one half per cent. in
the wages of their men, 1T is hard to
preach the beauties of protection will
laboring men receiving only 9S cents q
day."
These two lines of attack have now
been abandoned. The vote in Ohio con
clusively proved that the tariff was no,
in issue, and the Republican managers
have been casting about for some new
device to draw attention from the
glaring unftness of their candidate
They consider that they have discovered
1t In the - bloody Shirt which Mr.
Blaine has been frantically waving for
the last few days in Indiana.
This last mode of attack is doomed To
be the mort miserable failure of the
three. And it should be. In no other
speech 80 well as that at Terre Haute,
Indiana, does Mr.. Blaine show what a
dangerous demagogue he is. He would
array Tor his own selfish purposes solid
North against a solid South. Listen 10

hearers against the thousands of Ameri.

Middleton Charles Moore, a colored boy

AIotner Case OF Improper Treatment OF an
Insane man.
FROM tile Philadelphia Press.
The committee on lunaCy of the state
board Of charities, has discovered another
case OF improper treatment of an insane
person. This time the victim is farmer,
about 90 years of age, who lived with his
family near the dividing line between
DduDhin aud Lancaster counties. About
SIX months ago the farmers mind became
derauged. tie was permitted to wander
about as he pleased for awhile, but before
long his insanity assumed violent turn,
and the lives of his w1fe and children
were endangered by his rawlings. They
found it necessary to cOntine him. UntOr.
tunate'y they lived SO near the county
line that the authorizes Of neither county
would take charge of the case, and the
family were too poor to see that the father
Was properly cared for. The man was
found in q dirty loom that contained
nothing but a chair and small bedstead.
He WAS fastened to the floor by means of a
chain not more than twenty inches long,
that was attached to his leg. The chain
had cut into the flesh aud made it very
sore The people were very poor, and were
doing the very best they coald for the man
under the circumstances. Arrangements
were at once made to have him removed
TO the state hospital for the insane, at
Harrisburg and he vas taken to that in.

As was predicted Thursday, the tourna

their heads almost off in vain attempt to

that no tournament would take place. AT
that time about fifty people were
on the grounds, aud some of them
resemoled cakes OF ice. Their money was
refunded aud they were allowed to depart
in peace. The bands returned to town
through which they tramped and pounded
until time for them to 90 home. 1t appears
that the Adamstown band which was the
best here, attempted to run in "ringers "
on the tournament people. They came
with the intention of securing first
prize and in order to do that they
brought with them half dozen
members of the Ringgold band. of Read

leader of another band, who stated that
he would not play against the Adams
