A Victory for the Home Team By = score Of 10

Local and General Notes Of the
Diamond Field.

Several hundred people witnessed the OPEN
ing game Of base ball in this city when the
Lancaster had the Quaker City club Of PhiIa-
delphia for their opponents The air was
rather chilly snd the grounds .were by no
means dry. The homo club presented Wet
zell and Hofford ~ their battery Owing to
injuries received in Brooklyn Mack laid of,
and Lyston played first base with Smith In
right field. The game was not very interest
ing at any time and II dragged slowly along
until after o'clock. The Lancaster excelled
at the bat and hit Weidol hard. In the
seventh inning Blakely was put In the box
and he was also pounded In the eighth in
ming. The home club played good fielding
game, Hiland, Donald and Tomney doing well.
Parker and McTamany got several difficult
flies in the 0utfield. The visitors showed
that they are much better fielding than
batting club. They hit Wetzell pretty hard,
however, but many of the balls were sent in
the air and captured. There was nothing
very noteworthy in the game and the clubs
are playing again to-day. The score was ~

Sweep Before Your Own Door.

All good citizens will be gratified to learn,
even from the Philadelphia Press, that q
healthy public indignation is being aroused
with respect to fraud upon the ballot box >,
and none will gainsay the supreme import.
ance OF an honest count at every ballot
box IN the country"
When the Press ascribes what it calls a
renewed public determination to secure
this, to the united purpose of the Republi-
can party, exemplified in recent public ut
terances by Senators John Sherman and
William NJ. Evarts, it discredits its sense
- well as its sincerity.
There is no evidence whatever to Justify
the Press statement that besides the
presidency, the Democracy obtained last
November at least forty seats in the lower
House of Congress by cheating and false
counting at the polls.' 1t is a wilful. de.
hberate and wicked lie; and its circulation
b just as much of an offense against DO
'litical decency and morality as ballot box
stuhing or return tinkering. From sources
where such fabrications and falsehoods orig
mate no honest sympathy with attempts to
put down political frauds can be expected.
Nor are Sherman and Eyarts the men to
b put forward as leaders of any general 4
movement in the direction of political puri.
ncation. They were conspicuous in the
political crime of the century, which made
fSsud triumphant in seating Hayes. The
saccession of shames and crimes by which
that odious result was fastened upon the
country, was really the great event that
aroused thepublic conscience to sense OF
the dangers to our system from the un-
checksd course of political fraud. 1t mil.
dewed its own spawn with fatal blight
and the failure of Hayes administration |
and the utter contempt into which he was
oqDken, were due mainly to the means by |
which his seat was secured.

A Lesson for the Legislature.

If the Pennsylvania legislature Is capable
of learning from experience, 1t might find a
profitable lesson in the story of the Con-
nellsville miners hospital, which has been
exposed in an investigation of the circum-
stances under which the state came to pay
e12, 800 to that institution--on paper--and
was to keep on paying for its establish
ment and support.
The bill of july S, 1888, passed BY the
legislature and signed by the governor, ap-
propriated S12,5O0 for tn, erection
and equipment of such hospital,
IN future, on condition that the trus-
tees should receive like amount by
private subscriptions. How easy it is
under such system to procure the state
money without that of the private indi-
viduals being forthcoming, is shown by the
Connellsville developments, from which il
appears that DIR. Buttermore, who was in
the House of 1888 and got this appropria-
tion through, is the prime spirit in the hos
pital enterprise, that the so-called private
subscriptions were paid in checks that were
never cashed, that nobody in that section
Il
scheme except DR.. Buttermore, who
wanted to sell the hospital 1890,
property for $4,000, and to hav,
the state build and maintain an institution
for the benefit of himself and a select bod,
| of associates.
This transaction, which on its face is Lit
tie short of arrant rascality, differs only il
degree from great deal that is practicet
on the state every year in the form of thes
mixed charities, which are privately man
aged and paid for by the state. The legis
lature and the governor should run tn
ploughshare through the whole cf t..oni
Let the private and local charities be pai'
for by the people who establish and want h
run them and let the state control what
is expected to pay for; in all partnership
the state is sure to come out second best.

1T is said that the day of the drummer
like that OF the American Indian, is fast fad
ing away, and that more and more the coun
try merchant is beginning to return to his
old custom of going to the city to make his
purchases In person. This will mean the re-
moval of one of the most interesting figures
Of American business life. The commercial
traveller, as the more assthetic of the class
like to be called, has often been the butt Of
the newspaper paragrapher's raiIlery, and
many are the stories of his brazen cheek.
Yet separating the wheat of fact from the
chat Of exaggeration, the drummer class
contain as many gentlemen as any other, and
they do much to quicken business life in
the eloquence with which they are able TO
descant on the merits of the goods they are
selling. They have become such recog-
nized institution and are so great con-
venience that it is more than doubtful ii
under present business conditions, they can
be dispensed with. The departure OF the
drummer to other fields of work win do

Mr.. Lucas has at length succeeded in his
base ball struggle to have tile roserve-rule
and contract-breakers reinstated The Ma
tional League havo bowed to expediency in
this decision. That there had been plain vio-
lations ofplain rules could admit of no doubt.
But the persistency of Lucas ana the feeling
that the league would be much strength
ened by club in St Louis proved para
mount over convictions of right The sde-
cision cannot but tend to loosen the disci-
pline under which base ball players are
attempted to be kept If contractbreakers
are to be received back in special cases, even
after formal expulsion, the binding force of
one of these obligations will not weigh heav.
lily on those who desire to disregard them.
The cases against these players who have
been reinstated may have been hard, but
hard cases make bad precedents.

SINCE it has been determined by our Iegis
lstors that alcohol is wholly bad and that the
school children must be indoctrinated with
this idea, the pro and con Of the question be.
come an instructive to consider. A
writer in Btackwood's Magazine, who pre-.
sumably is far removed from the..alcohol agi-
tation that has been stirred up in Pennsylva-
mia, and therefore an impartial observer de-
clsres that when yellow fever was decimat-
ing Bermuda twenty years ago, the steady and
hard drinkers enjoyed complete immunity
from the attacks of the fever Whether
this was due to other conditions or
not the occasional topper went down
before the disease, while those whose
stomachs We're at all times thoroughly
saturated with alcohol were able to act
as nurses for their soberer brethren. This is
directly contrary to what Mrs Hunts book
teaches in the statement that 5000 drinking
people in New Orleans were attacked with
yellow fever before it reached a single sober
person. Perhaps the effect of this alcoholic
agitation in the schools will lead pu pills to the
investigate the effects of alcohol on
their own systems to find out which of the
statisticians are telling the truth.
