Read Good Newspapers.

CINCINNATI, Jan. ST. V. Powder
ly, General Master Workman of the
Knights of Labor, in an interview re-
garding the condition of the laborinG
class, says :'Tlmes are little hard at
present. but am glad to say that a
better feeling is coming about between
laborer and employer every day. be-
lieye in the next twelve months there
will be better understanding between
laborers and manufactures. Each side
will feel more like making concessions
and there will be less bitterness. l
find men who are cranky, obstinate and
unreasonable, both on the side of the
employer and employe, are men who
seldom read newspapers. Men who do
not read the daily papers and are not
acquainted with the drift Of public sem
timent are the men, who will no. come
together aud talk matters over and be
willing to concede point or two. The
power of the press is Of great avail in
this particular. If every laborer and
every manufacturer would read daily a
good newspaper and be posted on the
topics of the times, feel certain there
would be less trouble

No higher or more sacred mission was

close sympathy with the people in their

Ex-Governor Hoyt for United
States Senator.

From the Scranton Times.
lf the Republican party desires to
choose United States Senator honor
ably and ably to represent the State
and whose selection would reflect cred
it upon the judgement and good inlen-
tions of the party, it could not be done
better than turn to Ex-Governor III.
NJ. Hoyt. AS far as personal beauty
goes he might not be the ornament to
the Senate that statue Mitchell is, but
the Chamber can easily get along with
out that sort of ornamentation. The
vast gain In intellectual strength and
breadth of knowledge would easily
compensate for any loss to the fine
looks Of the Senate.

SPEAKER Carlisle did not distin.
gish himself very much in the selec.
tion of the different house committees
and their respective chairman. He
seems to entirely lack the judgement
to put the right men in the right
places. One of his crosses blunders
he made was the appointment of Per-
~ Belmont to the craftsmanship of
Foreign Affairs, position which our
esteemed representative, Gov. Curtin
had filed very ably before and would
have done SO again. But strange to
say, Curtin was doomed to be at the
head of a comparatively unimportant
committee, that on Banking and Cur
rency. That is what we call "throw-
ing the pearls to the swine"

Editor Moore Us a Policeman

The Harrisburg Patriot of Saturday
contains the following amusing ac-
count
Editor John Moore, of the Williams
port Breakfast Table, in company with
several other gentlemen, including Ben
Lodge and Ed. Smith of the Benne
and Moulton Opera Company, were
walking along street in Williamsport
on Thursday night. A button dropped
from Mr.. Lodges coat and a match
was lit and an attempt made to find it,.
A policeman approached the party and
ordered them to move on. One Of the
men said %, rats y and the officer ar
rested three of the crowd, including
Editor Moore. They were locked up,
but shortly afterwards offered their
freedom. Two of the men accepted the
offer, but Moore declined and remained
in the lookup all night. A hearing
was had yesterday morning and Moore
wanted to know if it was legal or not
to huntSa lost button on the street |?
City Recorder Smith. before whom the
case was heard, decided that man had
right to hunt a button, and the officer
who made the arrest was to pay the
costs.

worm-seed compounds called Yermiuges
and worm SyrupS, many of them as
worthless as they are obnoxious, have

Mr.. Camden Not An Issue.

Martlnsburg Statesman: The Re.
publican press and some alleged
Democratic organs are seeking to
disrupt the Democratic party by
forcing false issues upon it and Gre
ating factional strife. They are
persistent in the effort to make it
appear that the all absorbing ques.
ton, in The coming legislative cam.
paign, will be the election Of dele.
gates pledged to support Mr.. Cam.
den for the U. S. Senate. Such is
not the case, The Democratic par.
ty will in the future, as in the past,
make up its issues on principle not
men. Mr.. Camden is not an issue
in any sense Of the word. The
true and living issue will be the
perpetuation Of Democratic princi.
pies and administrations. This
coming fall will witness the first
election in West Virginia since the
Inauguration of a Democratic Ad.
ministration under Mr.. Cleveland,
and it behooves the party to give
it a practical endorsement BY an
increased majority, To that end
it will be the duty Of the Demo.
cratic party to put forward its best
material, good, practical sensible
men, aud true Democrats, who will
act in The interest of the people,
and legislate with an eye single to
the material development of the
State. 1t is true that 10 this year
Of 1885 there will be an election Of
members Of the legislature, and it
is also true that it will deyOlye
upon that legislature TO elect a sue
cessor 10 Mr.. Camden. A Legisla.
ture constituted as heretofore out.
lined, will carefully consider the
claims Of all candidates who may
present themselves before it, and
make choice according to merit
and the best interests Of the State.
Mr. Camden may or may not be a
candidate for re election. If he is,
be deserves we'll of his party. He
has ever been true and steadfast
and has made a most creditable
and safe representative, always
looking to the good Of the State,
and surely has done q great deal
for its advancement West vir.
