grapeF, for that will be free from any
Stamps, thus designating at a glance the
pure wine from the adulterated. This will
not only stop the sale OF the one, but the
confidence to each consumer of wine, with
the certainty before him that 1t Is pure, will
double consumption at once. The first res
olution formulated about this measure was
introduced by me in our board of viticul-
ture and that board, through its chief exec
utiye, Mr.. Wctmore, has worked hard and
faithfully to make 1t law, and 1t Is the be-
lief of Governor Stanford and our whole Pa

The bills allowing the free fortification

that it is appreciated.
We have watched with tender

BILE headed superlntendency of our
schools should be abolished, which
will tend to put our schools upon
the same basis with the whites.
We are opposed to mixed schools
and shall continue to advocate
separate schools, as they are bet

the fifth year of the existence OF
the BEE we renew our request tor
its support from all intelligent and
law abiding class of citizens.
Our opposers have been the cor
rupt politicians, the knaves and
those who have been disguised as
lambs, but found to be wolves.
The honest men and women have
no fears; they will not cover cor
ruption in any shape or form. The
ascendency Of the democratic par
ty has been a blessing, it has had
a good effect in some instances and
in others a bad effect.
1t has caused Negro repub-
licar office holders to be
more circumspect and Negro dem
ocrats to know that they are not
wanted. 1t has taught us to let
politics al >ne until we recognize
the fact that it is necessary to re-
spect each other and support our
own institutions. These are the
principles that we shall advo-
cate. 1t shall be men with us and
not party principles, not measures,

Will II BE a Cyclone Z

The Quay party are evidently enter
ing the campaign of this year with
great many tremors. Quay sla-
ted Beaver last year, and the fact
has become so generally known that he
cannot back out, although Beavers weak
ness as candidate is even more apparent
than it was in 1882. General Beaver him
self pointed out the other day in an inter
view with the Williamsport Sun and Ban
aer certain important interests which did
not oppose him in 1852, but which he thinks
will oppose him this year. He then proceed
ed to whistle them down.the wind with the
remark that they "didn't amount to
much anyway"
Chairman Cooper got up a very pretty
scene at the meeting of his state commit
tee. 1t was the first performance of the
trained animals on the slate programme.
Each member of the committee, except an
unhappy little goose from Juniata, who
wanted to v.ndicate the orphans school,
syndicate from the " lies" of the governor
and attorney general, were called upor
one after another and reported that each
district was just burning to give an unex'
ampled majority for Beaver and the whole
Ring slate. Here and there some half.
instructed fellow let it out that there was
great danger from the labor vote
this year. But as rule they spoke
the piece through as it had been given
them. When Cooper had finished up thi:
business without any serious mishaps, hi
proceeded to fix the time for Mr.. Quay
convention. Here, however, Luciu
Rogers, Bro. Kaufman and others brok,
loose completely They were evidentl,
in trouble about Beaver and had stron,
suspicion that if the slate was rul
through, without a deal of caution,
would get kicked to pieces at the polls
Cooper wanted ar early convention 70
fear of accidents to the machine but thes
people wanted late convention becaus
they dimly foresaw labor uprising agains
the slated candidates. Kaufman plainl
stated that if these men were put into tn
field in June, the chances were that tn
convention would have to be reassemble,
to remove some of them from the ticket
Cooper rebuked him for expressing
fears" and then blundered in the same
line himself by admitting the possibility OF
the cyclone which the other fellows
would beyond question have openly pre-
dicted if they had only been rid of the
machine muazles. Mr.. Quay and hi.
busy men manifestly feel the grount
quivering under their feet

ATTENTION has been recently directed to
the fact that in the Rhode Island legislature
an Irish home rule resolution met with strong
opposition on the grounds of international
interference, and that Ireland by voting
money and men for crushing the colonial
army in lT76 was not entitled to sympathy on
the score of reciprocity. Alexander Sullivan
has met and answered this mendacious state
ment end it is surprising that in the Rhode
Island legislature was found not one well
enough yersed in Irish history to repel il.
As Mr.. Sullivan says: "Ireland was ALSO
lutely without the power to vote upon any
question in l7T6 She never voted man or
a dollar 10 crush the colonies. 1t is true that
a body was in Dublin previous 10 the revolu-
tion and during it, but it did not represent
Ireland. 1t was composed exclusively of
men belonging to a section constituting only
one-ninth of the Irish people. Three-fourths
of the people could not vote al all even for
members of it Its members were chiefly
representatives OF the landlord power and
office holders sent over from England and
Scotland. 1t could meet only when sum
moned by the English king, and could take
action upon measures only in accordance
with the kings order. What untruth is it not,
therefore, to describe as the act of the people
OF Ireland any measure passed by that body I?
1t was only from l7s2 TO $500 in the Paria-
ment known as Grattan's that original bills
could be considered"
