The Probability of Early Frost and
q Very Cold Winter.
BY J.. b. Alexander, M. ID.

The exceptionally cold weather during the
first week of September together with the
SHOWS that have fallen to the north and north
west of Missouri, have excited no little ap-
prehension as to the occurrence Of early
frosts and an unusually severe winter.
I, however, do not share In these snticipa-
IONS.
In 1889 there was q severe frost in Septem-
Der, the date of which I now canno ascer-
tain, and I distinctly remember one other
about 20 years ago that occurred the 9th OF
September, but In this section Of the country
frost sufficient to kill anything but the most
the 10th Of October, and often we do not have
it until much later.
The following frost record of the seven
falls of which 1 have an sccurste record, will
show how little apprehension need be felt In
regard to it. In this list Eight frost" means
simply hosr frost, not general and doing In
jury only to exceedingly tender vegetation.

The COLUMBIAN is dtaodys strong for
the Democratic ticket and has never
wavered. When the present editor of
the Sentinel failed to secure the nomi-
nation for Register and Recorder for
ftth term, and ran as an independent
candidate against the regular nominee
of the party that had kept him in Of
fee for twelve years, the COLUMBIAN
was for the ticket, and it was elected.
When the present owner of the Se''ti-
mel used his influence in favor of the
republican candidate for prothonotary,
because the democratic party refused
to give him nomination for third
term, and after he had held Office at
the hands of the party for nearly twen-
ty years, the COLUMBIAN was for the
ticket; and it was elected. We are
democratic from principle, and our al
legiance to the party is not measured
by the desire to hold Office, nor have
we ever betrayed the party because of
our failure to capture the spoils.

the purpose of this meeting to make an

the ability of the candidates to conduct
the office of State Treasurer upon bust

of the one who will regard public Of
fee as public trust. Conrad b. Day

Treasurer, has known only active bu.

WIZ THE DEMOCRATS ARE G oSriDENr

WHY THE DEMOCRATS ARE oNrIDENT
From the Philadelphia Record, Ind.
The lack of Republican interest in
the Republican campaign in this state
cannot fail to impress the most careless
observer. There is good reason Tor
it. The bosses and the boys who here.
tofore have looked forward to some.
time opportunity TO share in the spolls
OF Federal office have had the door
shut in their faces. They now work
without heart because they work with
out hope. The ablest and most infuen.
tial Republican newspapers were ham
strung by the nomination made by the
Republican state convention. They
cannot support the ticket prepared for
them without committing moral hari-
kari, and as consequence the canvass
is left to drift along with no compe-
tent hand to keep it off the rocks or
from sticking in the mud. The more
ambitious young republicans perceive
that the movement upon the state
treasury is only preliminary step
toward more substantial rewards, in
volving moreover Ia continuance of
power in the hands of leaders entirely
mercenary and unscrupulous, and off
ering no particular inducement to them.
The "kickers' who put the value of
honest government above partisanship
ask themselves what is to be gained
by republican victory this year, when
the bosses they have aided in putting
down are again at the front seeking to
be trusted with important public funct-
ions And so it is, the whole Repub-
lcan organization is suffering with an
attack Of the megrims. The quiet,
apathetic monotony of Indifference has
finally been disturbed by the organiza-
tion of Independent Republicans to
oppose the nominee for state treasurer.
He is the incarnation in politics of all
that the Independents detest. He
is believer in machine politics and
boss methods. He has been part and
parcel of all the trickery and jobbery
that have pervaded the administration
of state affairs since he cut his political
eye-teeth. To elect him is TO undo
the work of reform and to put back in
power the class of politicians who, like
Falstaff, consider it rather a proper
thing to rob the public exchequer.
There is a sound and solid Republi
can majority in Pennsylvania which
will be made sounder and solder for
the important contest of next year if it
is not handicapped by an unfortunate
victory this year. The people of the
state want proper railroad legislation.
and they are heartily tired of the sys-
TEN of finance which permits the use
of the public money for the promotion
of partisan schemes. To fly in the
face of this desire by the election of
a lobbyist of the railroad companies
and dispenser of doubtful political
patronage is daring experiment with
the public patience. The Independent
Republicans show their independence
to advantage when they refuse to have
any hand in it. We are by no means
sure that the Blaine majority can be
all whitfield away, but such things have
happened. Mr.. Cleveland had nearly
100000 majority for governor of New
York and only 1900 for president

may possibly haye a sharp contest over

believes that the Republican Senators
could not afford to make any idle OPP
position to him, and play the part of
the dog in -the-manger. A Southern
Congressman who was present during
our interview, ssys that it is his opin-
ion that the President will have very
sharp fight with the Senate. He was
anxious to have this fight come. He
said nothing could happen which
would be better for the Democratic
party. If the President becomes invol-
we'd in sharp war with the Republi-
can Senators all Democratic differences
will be forgotten.

WASHINGTON LETTER.
From our Regular Correspondent

WAsHNGToN.iD. c.. Oct. s, 1895.
The President has been very busy
during the past week. AS the short
ening days betoken the approach of
the congressional session, fresh de-
nands upon his time and patience ap-
pear, and his work perceptibly increas
es. The number of callers at his in-
formal reception grows larger every
day, and few men could endure the
strain that Mr.. Cleveland and his pri-
vate secretary are obliged to daily un-
dergo. But the former has robust
constitution. and as for Col Lamont, l
know of no other slightly built, ner-
vous man who can accomplish so much
work, with no apparent fatigue.
The President has greatly lightened
his work by systematizing all his
duties. He is cool, calm, selfcontain
ed, and naturally industrious, and with
happy faculty of concentrating his
whole attention on each task, he makes
appointments and dismissals, answers
correspondence, transacts business and
receives visitors with equal facility.
lie is usually up by 7 o'clock and
breakfasts at 8. After his morning
meal, he goes at once ito the library,
where he spends most of his time. 1t
is large elliptical room, on the top
floor of the mansion, Adjoining it
are his private suit of apartments, and
the room where the Cabinet meetings
are held. Col. Lamont's room opens
into the latter apartment.
When the President enters the Ii
brary, he finds his private secretary
waiting for him, and such letters and
papers as require his sp, cial attention
are ready on his big oaken desk on the
bay window. Here he passes several
hours in disposing of the morning bust
ness, when it it is time for the receipt
ton. The ante-room on the north
side of the Mansion are full of visitors,
who, when the doors are open, swarm
toward the library. They hand their
cards to the door keepers (who have
quaint collection of cards, some of
which are queer and even absurd }

to the room of the private secretary,
for Col. Lamont has almost az many
visitors as his chief. For couple OF
hours there is an unremitting rush for
admission into the rooms.
The President stands up throughout.
He moves from man to man, and from
group to group, having pleasant word
and courteous reply for all who ad-
dress him. Even to positive bores he
is kindly, and it is pleasant TO watch
him when he finds one of those rara

He has humor and keen sense of wit,
and he laughs easily and musically.

may be better known before he leaves
the White House. 1t hos served him
in many trying and annoying conver'

he has been in Office.

he works steadily, only interrupted by

engagement for some hours in the
The Columbian. [volume] (Bloomsburg, Pa.) 1866-1910, 1885-10-09

When young man picks up the
editorial quill with the expectation of
shaking the earth from center to cir
cumference with the might of his pro-
1uctions he is naturally disappointed
when his efforts fall fiat. And when the
wind is knocked out of his allegations by
plain statement of facts, he invaribly
retorts by calling his opponent a
"blackguard." This style of retort is
considered somewhat respectable be-
cause of its old age. If we remember
rightly we have seen the words "billings-
gate" "blackguardism," ''scurrilous
attacks in print before. They are
good words-when one has nothing
else to say. They are always used as
last resort.
