IoSpoN, December l8.-The excite
meut throughout Great Britain on the
subject Of home rule for Ireland con-
tinues without abatement. Newspapers
of all shades OF opinion and politics are
nrging Gladstone to speak definitely in
regard to his plans. The late Premier,
in response to q telegram sent to-day
asking him for information with refer
ence TO the Irish home rule scheme
which 1t is reported he has had under
consideration for some time, replied as
follows, From my public declarations
at Edinburgh respecting the government
of Ireland, you will easily see have no

until the new Parliament meets.
George j. Goschen, a prominent mem.
ber OF the Whig branch Of the Liberal
marty. having been asked to-day for an
opinion ON the Reported scheme OF home
rnle for Ireland, replied by telegraph
that he maintained his hitherto ex-
pressed convictions against home rule,
and could not comment ON any scheme
of that nature until such scheme had
been fully declared.
The Marquis of Harrington, who was

WASHINGTON, December l7.-In the
House the consideration Of the report OF
the Committee on Rules was resumed,
the pending amendment being one of.
fered by Springer, Of Illinois, to abolish
the various committees OF expenditures
in the different departments and to con.
centrate their duties in one committee,
consisting Of fifteen members. After
considerable debate the amendment was
rejected.
The House also rejected the motion oil
Hammond to strike out that clause OF
the proposed new code OF rules distrib.
uting the appropriation bills among the
several committees Of the House, by q
vote of: Ayes, SO; noec, 227. None oi
the California, Nevada or Oregon men,
bers voted yea.
On motion Of Cobb, of Indiana, an
amendment was adopted granting the
Committee ON Public Lands leave to re.
port at any time on bills for the forfeit
ure Of land grants, to prevent specula
ton in ublic lands, and for the reserva.
ton Of the public lands for the benefit OF
actual aud bona .fde settlers.
r Adams. of Illinois, then offered an
amendment virtually prohibiting riders.
The amendment was adopted and the
remainder Of the report was agreed to
without objection, then the report was
adopted in toto. So the rules of the
Forty Eighth Congress as amended by
the report OF the Committee on Rules
are re-enacted as the rules Of the Forty
Ninth Congress.
Morrison, of Illinois, then called up
the resolution for holiday recess, after
having amended it SO that the recess
shall begin on Monday next and end on
january 9th. Beach, of New York,
opposed the idea, which he considered a
childish one. of taking holiday recess
at this time. 1t was attended with dan
ger and he appealed to the Democratic
House to go as far as the Republican
Senate had done in taking some action
on the Presidential Succession bill. The
resolution was then passed.
On motion OF Watson, of Indiana, the
Senate bill granting q pension to the
widow OF General Grant was taken VI
and passed. Price. of Wisconsin, voted

Mr.. Frank Pixley of California
was an ardent supporter OF MIR.
Blaine in the last campaign, but he
now deprecates his leaders advice
that the bloody shirt issue shall be
continued: Mr.. Pixley says it is an
indisputable fact that carpet bag
and negro government nearly ruin
ed the South, and that prosperity
returned with it's overthrow. Never
before, he says, were the people of
the South, white and black, so pros
porous as they now are. He wants
this prosperous and satisfactory
condition of affairs to be let alone.
He speaks with decided emphasis
on the subject, and says:
Expressing the opinions of an in
telligent and patriotic class of
northern loyal men, we say to
Messrs. Blaine, Logan and Sher-
man that if we lived in South Car
DINA or Mississippi, where ignor-
ance was in the voting majority,
we would not let it vote unless it
voted our way. If during the COM
ing session of Congress the Chi
nese of California could be lawfully

Anderson is hopelessly and IRE

Anderson is hopelessly and ire
trievably defunct, politically. If we
hold the district, Murray, of Piqua,
will be recalled. The Greenville
person has nine enemies to one
friend in the party. So much of
his trouble has come from what is
declared to be his unbroken prac-
tice of Misrepresentation. A states
man who so ~recklessly duplicates
promises invites disaster to an in
innate personal association.
The above is what the Troy cor
respondent of the Miami Leader
says. MI. Murray should have had
his, second term, but was beaten by
rascally and Infamous methods. A
man who purchases his way to a
seat in Congress ought to be treat
ed as a felon. We hope, the DEM
ocracy of Miami county will right
the wrong and injustice done Hon
R. NJ. Murray, at the next Demo
cratic Congressional Convention
and thus rebuke political rascality
and corruption.

Cincinnati ENQUIRER,

The Presidential succession bill,
which has already passed the Sen
ate and will also pass in the House,
reduces the Importance both of the
Presidency of the Senate pro tenn.
and of the Speakership of the
House. Both are omitted from the
line of succession. The Secretary
of State is made third in succession,
coming after the Vice President,
who is electedb by the people. 1t will
be no longer proper to speak of the
President of the Senate pro tenn. as
the Vice President. The effect of
the bill is to preserve to the people
the administration of affairs in the
hands of the party which succeeded
at the election. The dangers of
assassination from party motives
and for party purposes are entirely
removed. In case of President
Cleveland's death or disability, Mr..
Bayard will succeed until a new
election for the remainder of the
term can be held. The Republican
Senate, in conceding to thepassage
of this bill, has acted in a very
worthy spirit, and removed all oc-
caSiOn for uneaSineSS.
The Eaton Democrat. (Eaton, Ohio) 1875-1903, 1885-12-24

The sound and sensible decision
of the Ohio Supreme Court, in the
Hamilton county Senatorial cleo
ton cases, is embodied in five lines,
as follows:
Z. A pretended judicial deter
mination of any other tribunal in
form deciding that a candidate for
either house is elected is a nullity.
Judgement reversed.
We have commended all along
that the proper place to settle the
matter was in the Ohio Senate.
The constitution in article 2, Sec
ton g., plainly confers upon each
house of the general assembly the
right to Judge of the election re-
turns and qualifications of its own
members"

John Wells and he was the late Re-
publican postmaster at Kirkland,
o., but was removed and the office
given to Mrs. Milliken, a democrat
whose father was a soldier in the
war of 1912. The patriotic Wells
was mad at his removal, and is en-
deavoring to crafty his revengeful
feelings by collecting what mail he
can, sending it to Willoughby by
the stage driver, and thus reduce
the revenues which the postmistress
should receive from the office. Wells
exhibits the characteristics of a foul
specimen, and ought to be cleaned

The following in reference to the
death of William H. Vanderbilt is
from the Chagrin Falls Exponent:
The great railroad potentate, w.
HI. Vanderbilt, is dead. Well, what
of it? He said "damn the people,"
and while the people will not now
retaliate by heaping curses on his
dead head, they can find no occa-
sion for tears. He was a robber,
and although he did not pursue his
cursed calling with masked visage
and bludgeon, he followed a more
subtle course, and dragged down to
the depths of despair thousands who
could not guard against him by
locks and bars. While thousands of
deserving women and little chill
dren suffered for bread, for clothing
and shelter in his own city, Wand
erbilt could not use his interest. He
could have given every deserving
destitute person in his city immu-
nifty from pinching want, and new
er have missed the money. Did he
do it? No; he went on piling ul
his millions and damning the PEG.
pie. He is dead, and the E1poneni
ventures the opinion that it were
better for the American people ha6

DIR. Pasteur. the French nbvs;-

DIR. Pasteur, the French physi-
clan whose recent discovery Of in
o~culation for hydrophobia has at
tracted SO much attention, and to
whom the dog-bitten Newark child
rem have been taken for treatment,
thus describes his process:
81 first take the poison from the
brain of a mad dog. With this 1
vaccinate a rabbit, which will die
within fourteen days, and this gives
me the poison from a second one,
which is vaccinated the same way.

the animal will become mad within
seven days. This procedure enables
me to determine the most impor.
tant feature of the treatment. viz
The duration of the period of in.
cubation, and grades the poison ano
moderates its effects upon the hui
man system"
Hydrophobia does not show it
self in a person who has been bit
ten by a mad dog until after two o:
three months, and sometimes unit
years have elapsed. Pasteur's the
DRY is, that if they can be inoculat
ed with a mild form of the disease
obtained by this process, before tn
disease developes in the ordinar,
way, that they will not have an
other attack. He has thorough,
tested it on dogs, and has been yer

The X. of l.. and Catholics.
Sedelia Labor Union.

1t has been stated that Catholics
were not permitted by their church
authorities to affiliate with Knights
of Labor, the matter was brought
to the attention ofRev. Father Ora
ham, of st. Joseph, Mo-, pastor of
st. Patrick's Church and editor of
the Catholic Tribune, and we give
below what he has to say on the
subject. 1t is a very decided set
back to those enemies of organized
labor who are endeavoring to bring
the K. of L. into dispute with the
church authorities.
There is nothing in any of the
forms or ceremonies of this Order
in conflict with the rules of any
church organization, and to this, in
a great degree, is attributable its
success among those who are OPP
posed to secret societies as a rule.
We are glad to publish the fine en-
dorsement below from a source
which will give it so much weight :
ga committee of the Knights of
Labor called on me at the parochial
residence wishing to ascertain my
views in regard to the Order. 1t
seems that many Catholics belong
to the organization and great many
others would join ifthey knew that
the Order is not condemned by the
church.
AS far as l know, there is moth

joining, as the Objects the self pro-

From the early days of the colo
MES to the present time tobacco has
been a leading product of Ameri-
can soil. Its production has nearly
trebled in half a century and is
still increasing. Fifty years ago.
the ares in tobacco was less than
100000 acres and the annual pro5.
duct about 21O,OOO,OOO pounds
Since 1880, or in five years, it is
estimated that the acreage has Inc
creased to 100000 and that the crop
for the current year is near to &c.,
O0O,O 900 pounds. Until 1870 Virgin
la ranked first as a tobacco State.
Now Kentucky has the load, and
produces over one-third of the total
production of the United States.
The late crop of that State is the
largest ever raised, with the excep.
ton of that of 1877, which amount.
ed't to 1884, 600 pounds. For the
fiscal year ending June 80, 1885
the value of the exports of tobacco
was $24, 767,4O5.

The Treasury statemement shows
that the public debt has been in
creased about 100000 during
November. Under the old form of
issuing the monthly statement, in
stead of being an apparent increase
of nearly $5,OOO,OOO, there would
be a decrease for the month equal
to nearly that amount. Last month
nearly 100000 in fractional coin
was returned to the Treasury in ex-
change for lawful money, and as
fractional coins are carried as una
valuable assets, the cash was depict
ed by the amount returned. The re-
ceipts and expenditures for the past
five months show that, while there
was an increase of only 81 100000
in the former, the net surplus, owing
to the large decrease ofexpenditure,
was $9,217,207 greater than for the
same five months of 1884.

One of the most noteworthy po-
litical movements of the times is
the decrease in the Republican vote
in the Northwestern States. Not
long ago these States were rock
ribbed in their Republicanism
and upon their solid and unwaver-
ing majorities the efforts of Demo-
Gratis produced no effect. Now
these States are good fighting
ground for Democrats and the Re-
publican majorities show a steady
and gratifying decrease. The ex-
PLANTATION of the change is public
distrust of the Republican position
on the temperance question and
the increase of population from en-
Iigration, the new corners being as
a rule Democrats.

Of the two parties now in Ireland
which have any politial significance
a writer says: "The Orange ele-
ment will be represented in the
British Parliament by fifteen or
twenty members, bitterly hostile to
the granting of home rule to Ire
land. These will appeal as repre-
sentatives of Protestants to the re-
ligious prejudices of the English
nation against granting Legislative
power to Irish Catholics over the
persons and property of Irish Pro-
testants. There can be no doubts
that appeals made in this spirit will
command both sympathy and sup
port among large classes in Eng
land, but whether they could in the
end succeed in defeating the ma
tional aspirations of Ireland is
doubtful"

The report of the Commissioner
of the Land Office, tells it's own
story of spoliation and fraud. Mil
lions of acres of this common heri-
tage have been stolen and squand-
cred, and what is strange to relate
the operation continued down to the
time when the Democratic House
put a pause to the schemes by re-
fusing to pass the necessary bills.
Congress will have an opportunity
to recover much of these ill-gotten
lands, and it does not need a pro-
phetto declare that the move in that
direction will originate in the
House, on information furnished,
for the first time, by a Democratic
administration.

Secretary Lamar, ex-Confederate
as he is, recognizes as fully as any
one could desire, the justice ofpen-
sion to Uniou soldiers, and makes
one point in their support that is
forcible. "The amount of money
paid as PENSIONS" he says, "docs
not equal the amount of interest
paid upon the public debt incurred
during the war, so long as the pre-
MUM paid to those who contribut-
ed the money exceeds that paid to
the defenders of the country. 1
think the complaint of excessive
pension is not well founded" Still
the Secretary is determined to Grad
icate the abuse of illegal and ficti-
tious names on the pension rolls,
and says that in two agencies alone
more than a thousand names have
been stricken from the rolls.

they could make III laws, elect
their magistrates to interpret them

1t will not take many such utter

western Republicans to show the
Republican leaders the political
folly of attempting to revive the

in any event, but such hot protests
