THE contest over the Harrisburg
Postoffice is said to be quite warm.
Among the candidates for the post
mastership, Hon. B. F. Meyers, FORM

HENRY REED, ESQ, was appointed
to the position of Associate Judge of
Court Of Common Pleas, No. 3, of
Philadelphia, vice Judge James r.
Ludlow, deceased. Mr.. Reed is one
of the ablest lawyers at the Philadel-
phia bar and in that respect Governor
Pattison's appointment is all right.
But then Mr.. Reed is Republican
and We along with many other demo-
cratic newspapers can't see the object
of giving the opposite party the pref
erance. 1t looks so much as if the
Democratic party was scarce in ma
terial fit for places of that kind.

Robinson for Speaker.

PHILADELPHIA. .NoY. 15.-Hon John
B. Robinson, of Delaware county, has
announced himself as a candidate FOR
Speaker of the next House of Represen-
tatives at Harrisburg. He will oppose
Mr.. Boyer, of Philadelphia, although
his candidacy has no significance so far
as the United States Senatorship is con-
cerned. Mr.. Robinson is for QUAY as
well as Mr.. Boyer, and he says he
thinks that nothing but Quay's death
or some other act of God can preyant
his election" Mr.. Robihson's brilliant
record in the last Legislature is not
forgotten. He formerly lived in Pitts.
burg, and his substantial support of all
Pittsburg bills for that reason has made
him warm friend with Allegheny
county members.

It is a notable fact that notwith- standing the very heavy decline, dur ing the past two years, in the prices paid for beef cattle, the retail prices paid for dressed beef in the Eastern markets have been fairly well main- tanned, so that consumers have not derived the benefit they are entitled to by the cheapening of live beeves, and the losses sustained by producers have gone into the pockets of the big slaughter-house and packing compa- nies of Chicago and Kansas City. Western shippers of cattle are at the mercy of these monopolists, who con trol the prices of live stock as certainly as do the manipulators in Chicago and Wall street the fluctuations of wheat and stocks. We can see no relief from the extortions of the middlemen ex- cept through a combination of ship pers of range cattle, to regulate ship mentS and establish their own stock yards and slaughter-houses.

The tidal wave which submerged the Texas gulf coast and which proved so destructive to property, in 1875, was reproduced with resistless fury on the 2Oth ut. In the city of Calves ton 150 houses were wrecked, some of which were totally destroyed, while others were swept into the bay. The total damage at Galveston alone is es- timated at $5OO,0OO. The wind which produced the wave, made great havoc inland. The cotton crop is injured fully 15 per cent. All towns in that section of the State have suffered, and details are constantly swelling ac- counts of casualties and destruction along the coast.

While the Prohibition party has not made any material growth since 1884, except in some of the Southern States, where the movement is of little polit- ical significance, yet there is no denying that it will be an important factor in the Presidential election in 1888. However, the cause does not seem to gain any strength with sensible, think ing people, among whom there Is a growing conviction that high license and local option are the best weapons with which to check the abuse of the liquor traffic. In none of the Prohibi- States have the laws against the sale of Iiouor been enforced, save Tn the rural districts. In all the large towns of Maine, Vermont, Iowa and KaaSas there Is the most shameful and open violation of the laws, and the VileSt liouors to be found anywhere, are sold in those States by men who carry on their fraudulent traffic under cover of restaurants, drug stores and hetelS.

Prices of Lake copper have become very firm. We hear of sales at 1040c spot to consumers.

European or ders for Calumet & Hecla are Tn, linn lted 104c. cash, for large quantities, but could not be filled, even at 10.50c, Europe must make up It's mind to pay higher prlces, and all manipulations on the other side, by keeping the price of Chili Bars down, will not help. No attention is paid here to this artificial depression of prices of copper. Ex- ports of furnace material amount al- most to nothing. Other brands con- tinue to be quoted at 9R@10c. Quo- tations at the Metal Exchange to-day: Lake copper, spot, 10'3Oc.; August, 10'30c.; September, 10'35c.; October, 10'4Oc.; November, 10'45c.; December, Der 10'55c.
