Little Pangborn, whose mouthpieee is
the Journal, is sndeavering to work the
temperance plank in the Republican plat
form IN this county for all it is worth. by
pointing out to the greatest temperance
body in the state-the Woman's Christian
Temperance Union-the sad havoc the
prohibition movement is making in the
Republican ranks. The quasi prohibition
plank inserted in the Republican plat
form is nothing mere than trap set for
the purpose of soaring votes away from
Gen. Fisk, the Prohibition candidate for
Governor, and perchance that he NAV
withdraw in favor of the man-Hewey-
whose every vote in Congress was in favor
OF capital as opposed to labor But it
won't work for cent. Not only will Gen.
Fisk not withdraw and the rotten little
prohibition plank in the Republican plat
form prove effective thereby; but, rotten
and hollow as that plank is, it is just OUT
spoken enough against the sentiment of a
large class of citizens in this state-the
Germans draw thousands of good,
solid, thrifty, law abiding voters from the
standard around which they have hereto
fore rallied to the support of the candidate
of party which they can count upon all
the time as their friend-the good old
Democratic party, of, for, and with the
great mass of the people, first, last, and

nopoly stole one of the main streets of the
city between two days, recently, by setting
lantern gang at work to lay tracks across
it while the people slept. The Council or
dered the tracks removed. For answer,
the railroad company drilled an army of
locomotives to the scene of the conflict,
and held them, manned and fred, in read
mess to ride over the disputed ground the
moment the city officials attempted to en-
force the Councils order All of sudden
the locomotives puffed away, and then it
was learned that one of the company's
lawyers had stolen, under cover of the
darkness, at midnight, to the Chancellor
house and had an injunction issued re-
straining the city from taking possession
of its stolen property. The city has re-
torted by applying for an injunction re-
straining the company from taking up the
tracks, and the application will be under
advisement till tomorrow. The gross out

if the company looks to the interests of

will be constructed on route somewhere

Phillips Brooks, d. D., of Trinity
Church, Boston, who was Thursday
elected by the Protestant Episcopal con-
vention of Pennsylvania assistant bishop
of the diocese, is very favorably spoken
of by the Philadelphia press. One paper
says of him: "Mr. Brooks is indeed well
entitled to such honors, for he has been a
consistent, devout and untiring worker in
the church, and his intellectual qualities
are rare and eminent. He would make
most valuable adjutant to the
distinguished rrelate, Bishop Stevens,
and worthy successor, for he is endowed
with great piety, rich and persuasive
eloquence and extraordinary physical
strength" And another says SIN
religion, in the church Mr.. Brooks had
always been a great and active force.
He had convictions, deeper than mere
opinions. He thought greatly and he
preached greatly. His voice, manner
presence were full of noble sincerity
of wondrous earnestness. He is known
as well abroad as at home for his great
learning, piety and power as preacher.
A Boston dispatch reports that it is ex
tremely doubtful whether Mr.. Brook
will leave his present congregation t.
accept the honor that has been rendered
him.
