WHEN the American colonists we're deter.
minod to wrest independence from the
mother country they showed their indepen.
dence of her by declining to buy any cloth.
ing of English manufacture. If Ireland is
denied her rights, she might follow this
good example merely as matter of senti'
ment At the garden party given in Dublin
by the lord lieutenant of Ireland the other
day all the guests, to the number l,s00, wore
dresses made exclusively of Irish fabrics.
The cloth coats and the hats of the men, and
the noplins, serges, ribbons and laces of the
ladies were all OF Irish manufacture. If thi:
sort OF things we're recommended 20 tn,
people as a scheme OF retaliation, it woulC
make warm work for English manutac
turers.

AN examination OF the brain of Gambetta,
the famous Frenchman, has brought to light
some curious philosophical facts. The Oh
servers noted the high development of the
speech centre in the third left frontal region.
Nor was this portion of the statesmau's brain
found to be merely well developed. 1t
actually exhibited a double folding or redu.
plicaton in this area, indicating an eXcep.
tionaly active disposition as far as eloquence
and command of language were concerned
qualities these for which Gambetts, of al
men, was markedly distinguished. In tn,
forehead region-admittedly the seat of the
highest Intellectual powers--the statesman:
brains showed complexities of folding, asso
ciated with great diagramatic regularity.
Whatever may be thought Of the value ol
these Investigations it is beyond peradven-
ture true that the quality of n mans brain is
the important thing, and not the quantity.

many Democrats are reported from vari-
ous parts of the county and in this city to
have taken hand in it /, and at the ger.
eral elections here we have seen too often
that the cancerous growth of corruption
has eaten deeply into both parties. 1t is
the common shame of Lancaster county
that no other part of the state suffers more
seriously from the corruption of its indl-
vidual voters than this.
We have often pointed out that
there is an easy remedy for this.
A non-partisan association, made ny
of representatives of all factions and par
ties, formed for the single purpose of eradi
eating this evil, organized when no election

REV. THOMAS n. BOYLE is Methodist
Episcopal clergyman, OF McKeesport, who
has been suggested as suitable candidate
for governor on the Prohibition ticket. BY
his own confession, Rev. Boyle is unworthy
OF this distinction. For the other day when
preaching before a 6. A. 4. Post he said that
Jefferson Davis should be- buried in living
tomb and that every soldiers widow should
kneel down at her husbands grave and
call down heavens curse on Davis, the
murderer of her husband. The lowly Cali
lean did not come into the world to preach
the doctrine of hate for an enemy, and its adj
vocscy by a minister of the gospel is the
height OF sacrilege.

Corruption at Our Elections.

Our esteemed contemporary, the NCtc
Era, in reviewing the events transpirng
in the Republican party of this county dur
ing the past week, says
The methods on which the campaign was
conducted by the practical politicians" on
both sides show that the political morals of
the Republican party are not improving. On
the other hand, they lend emphasis to The de-
claration made in this journal at the opening
of the contest that the only combination II
would Join would be one to enforce the Law
against bribery and corruption with view
of sending those guilty of corruptng voters
and those allowing themselves to be corrupt
ed to Jail. Ii some efficient measures are not
taken in this direction before the next pri-
mary the party will be in that condition
which will render it impossible TOR citizens
having common seli-respect to take part
But OF this we will have more to say here
after.
by the common confession of all con-
cerned and by the report of intelligent OBJ
servers, the brief but intense campaign
Just closed, for only two important Re-
publican nominations in this county, was
the most corrupt and shameless know,

DISCUSSING the subject of tax laws, the
Philadelphia Ledger voices the views of a
large constituency when it says: 1T would
be worth while to direct attention to the tax
on mortgages and move for the repeal of this
most unjust tax on the debtor class Although
this tax is aimed at the holder of the mort
gage, the capitalist, it is invariably paid by
the borrower, who cannot get the money
without agreeing to pay the tax and who
sometimes pays it without Denetiting the
state treasury
