LANCASTER, JULY IS. 1885.
A Well.Deflned Issue.

Some of the Republican newspapers OF
the state are wise enough to see and frank
enough to say that the cause of their candi-
date in the pending campaign was hurt by
the refusal of the state convention nomi-
mating him to declare for the enforcement
Of the state constitution. 1t is lamentably
true that although the present constitution
of Pennsylvania has been adopted and in
alleged operation for over decade, and
although the legislature was enjoined to
carry its provisions into effect, every at
tempt to make efficient the constitutional |
regulation Of the carrying corporations OF |
the state has been obstructed and defeated. |
~ It was perfectly consistent for the con-
vention which nominated Quay to refuse
to call attention to this abuse, and to de-
cline to demand any reform of it. For to
no influence in greater degree than TO that
which this candidate represents, is it ow-
ing that the constitution remains inopera-
tive and ineffective in the important sec
tions referred to. His leadership and
power in his party have been invariably di-
rected to that end. Had the convention
which named him made declaration in
consistent with his record on this subject,
either he or his party would have been re-
sponsible for and would have suffered from
the variance. They are in accord in their
sympathy with the violation and defiance
of the supreme law of the commonwealth.
Fortunately there is no room for misap-
prehension as to the attitude of the
Democratic party in this state on this
question. Its policy has been proclaimed
so consistently year after year thatit would
be distressing, if it were not amusing, to
note that even some of our esteemed con-
temporaries and some eminent statesman
,aof tie Democratic faith think it will be a
new departure for the Democrats of Penn

A Girl Drowned while in Bathing,

Rose Delaney, l3 years old, was drowned
Thursday evening at Reservoir station, near
Hollidaysburg, Pa, on the Pennsylvania
railroad branch. She had como TO town in
the afternoon TO sell berries. Returning
home at hall-past eight, she found some of
her companions bathing in the reservoir cut,
and, although she could not swim, joined
them. She asked one of her companions to
teach her how To swim and yenturing beyond
her depth she was taken under by the swift
current, where the water was twenty-five
feet deep, and drowned before help could
reach her.

The Primaries.

1t is just as well for Democrats to re-
member that the laws regulating primary
elections and nominating meetings, though
passed mainly to prevent the scandals and
punish the abuses of Republican ballot-box
suffers and return tinkers, are in full force
and effect at Democratic primaries also.
As such primaries are to be held here
this evening, and the county convention
next week, it ought not to be forgotten
that anything like bribery or bargain, the
voting of disqualified persons, intimidation
or return tinkering at primaries, is made
a grave oifense, punishable with severe
| penalties.
Moreover, the act of June %, 1881, to
regulate the holding of and to prevent
frauds in, the primary elections of the sew.
eral political parties in the commonwealth
of PENNSYLVANIA, prescribes that Judges
inspectors and clerks ut all such noml
mating meetings and elections must b'
duly sworn (; and not only are they LIABLE
for misconduct in Office, but {" if any judge
inspector, clerk or other officer Of aprimar
election as aforesaid shall presume to ac
| in such capacity before the taking and sui
scribing to the oath or affirmation require
r | by this act, he shall on conviction be line
not exceeding two hundred dollars"
The county committeeman having bee
v duly supplied with copies of these laws,
I may be well for all concerned to sean thel
4 closely and adhere to them strictly, to avo
:, | all preteXt for complaint or scandal.

Yankton's opportunity to attain It's
proper position in the commercial world
is now at hand and its most potent bust
ness sagaclty should be invoked to the
end that the opportunity be not lost.
We find ourselves suddenly in posses
sion of those long needed railroad facili-
ties for which we have SO perseveringly
striven, and as we stand face to face
with the magnitude of oar newly ac-
quired advantages it is important that
we fail not to take oognizanoe
of the situation and speedily
adapt ourselves to the enlarged sphere
of action which surrounds us. We must
meet the new condition. Our labors in
our own behalf have reached only the
starting point. There is business
future before us which must be first fully
comprehended and then followed to its
legitimate results. The best that could
be asked has been done for us and it re-
mains for the people to solve the balance
of the problem.

OF the 4ankton county members of
the state legislature Messrs. Hanson and
French cast their senatorial votes for
General Campbell ana Messrs Gamble
and VanOsdel for Judge Edgerton. 1t
was two and two. Two Yankton count Y
votes for a Yankton county man and
two Yankton county votes against q
4ankton county man. The record con-
veys it's own moral and the constituents
OF our representatives can take it home
and fathom it's mysteries at their leisure.
Remembering, however, that fidelity to
local interests is the first duty of man,
or OF men, chosen by the suffrages of q
community to represent that community
in legislative body. 1t is hardly an ex.
cuse that distorted vision conjures up
the dark horse spectre, or that blood is
thicker than water. The public interest
is never willingly subservient to spec
trail imaginings or to fraternal expecta-
tions of extraordinary or strained dimen-
sions. Wha. the public demands is an
abandonment OF the selfish, personal
policy to the end that the greatest good
may come to the greatest number.

Senator Manderson, of Nebraska, has
introduced bill directing the board of
managers of the home for disabled vol
unteer soldiers TO locate branch of the
home at some suitable point in either
of the states of Iowa, Minnesota, Ne
braska, Colorado or the territory of Da-
kota. 1t apprepriates $250000 for the
purchase of ground and the erection oi
buildings. Dakota contains larger
proportion of ex-soldiers than any of
the western states and is entitled tc
consideration in the selection of q site
for western home. Yankton, which is
still in Dakota, is SO located that 1t is
readily accessible from all points within
the territory and the states of Minnesota
Iowa and Nebraska. Hence Yanktor
furnishes very desirable location fol
the proposed new soldiers home.

Judge Seward Smith. late of the fiftI

Judge Seward Smith, late of the fifth
judicial district of Dakota, superseded
by the democrat, Judge Church, has
gone to his home in Des Moines, Iowa,
and says he is done with Dakota. It is
with feelings OF pity and sorrow that We
advert to the final acts of this gentle
man as resident of our territory. His
remarkable circular to the public is be-
fore us. 1t contains the expressions of a
mind diseased and is the output of q
mental organism strained beyond the
breaking point. The shock of sudden re-
moval from office has been too great f, r
his feeble vitality and mind, poised
on the verge of overthrow, passes
from rationalism to irrationalism. 1t is
pltlfui closing of career marked
throughout its course by the tenderest
touches nature can bestow through the
medium of a human factor. Judge
Smith was man OF great heart, of win
ming tenderness, child like in its simpli-
city and man-like in It's enfolding
strength. AS he passed along lite's high,
way he drew the people to him and held
their esteem and affection by the grand
eur of his unassuming goodness. We
of Dakota can but remember him with
our most kindly impulses and our most
sincere regrets. His final act-his de-
fence of himself and his appeal for the
senatorial sutfrages of our legislature
is not subject for discussion, and he
who would fling satire at the effusions
of broken mind or invoke the power of
rldlcule against irresponsible utterances
had best habiitate himself in the man
tie of charity and forever hold his peace.

The Ohio Republicans hold their State
convention this week. The probability is
strong that Judge Foraker, the candidate of
two years ago.. will be renominated. The
Greenbackers already have ticket in the
field and the Prohibitionists have determined
TO nominate candidates to the legislature
who will favor the re-submission of the pro-
hibitory amendment to the public. The
Democrats are all at sea. Their ubernato-
rial nomination is going begging. It has
been offered to Judge Thurman on condition
that he will not oppose John r. NcLean's
aspirations for the United States Senate, but
he will not accept it on that condition or on
any other. No Democrat of prominence
seems disposed to take it, and it will have to
be rendered to some of the small fry who are
obscure enough to make nomination even
with the certainty of defeat valuable. The
fight will be chiefly for the control of the
legislature which elects United States SEN

The Back Cove Nuisance.

II has generally been supposed ne think,
certainly the PRESS has been under that i'm
preston, that the last plan adopted by the
City Council for disposing of the sewage on
the back side of the city, would afford for a
time at least relief from the nuisance that
the city has suffered for years by reason of
the deposit of sewage upon the Back Cove
fats. Certainly the City Council was under
that impression when it adopted the plan or it
never would have sanctioned it. The decar-
alton OF so competent an authority in regard
to sanitary matters as DIR. Gerrish, therefore,
that the proposed plan is practically worth
less, In one respect worse than that, because
Its execution will give the people false
sense OF security will excite general atten-
ton. Mr.. Shedd's plan which is generally
admitted to have besn the best plan was re-
jected on account of It's expense, as was Mr..
Geodwin's plan of last fall. But if the city
could not afford to expend the $4,000 nee
essary to carry out Mr.. Shedd's plan, or the
amount required for the execution of Mr..
Goodwin's plan, it can much less afford to
expend 81, 900 to carry out plan that is
destined 10 prove practically worthless"
In view of the grave doubts raised by the
communication of DIR. Gerrish it would
seem to be the duty of the City Council to
call halt and have these doubts removed

The story goes, and the authority for it
seems to be excellent, that an attempt is
making to get Republican ofice-hoder cred
tied to this State though not holding posi-
ton in it, out of the way by an arrangement
similar to the one Frank Jones is said to
have made with the collector of Portsmouth.
He is to be, or has been, offered position
not in the government service which pays as
much as the place he now holds. The gen.
tleman referred to has proved SO efficient an
officer and been SO free from Offensive par
tisanship' that it has been found to be i'm
possible to formulate charges against him
that would stick. We are inclined to think
the little game will not work.
