Idle Efforts.

We can easily believe the report of an
esteemed contemporary, that at the Repub-
lican headquarters in Philadelphia, There
is more or less interest and anxiety as to
the formation of the Democratic ticket
the operations of the Democratic mana.
gers are being watched very closely. They
are counting on an old-fashioned fight be-
tween Wallace and Randall, with Scott as
third party" The anxiety of the Re-
publicans of the state and the activity of
their party organs in fomenting Demo
cratic dissensions, are i'll concealed. They
feel their own weakness and apprehend
dire results unless they can promote dis
cord in the ranks of the Democracy. They
have been persistent in this endeayor for
many years; and have INDUCED in the
same anticipations of it prior to every con-
vention of the past decade. We have heard
this same gossip and idle tales about Ran
dali and Wallace quarrels, and vet, as a
matter of fact, since 1850 no state conyen-
tlon mas been disturbed by any trouble be-
tween these distinguished gentlemen. nor
has any issue been made between their
iriehas ana followers, If either of them as
pres TO be the leader of faction or any,
thing less than servant of his party.
AT Williamsport in 1881, at Harrisburg
in 1882 and 1888, at Allentown in 1854. and
again at Harrisburg in 1885, the represen.
tatives of the party assembled without di-
rection OF any so-called leaders," held
their deliberations without any marshaling
of factions and nominated strong and ac.
ceptable candidates. This is just what will
happen again. None of the dozen distin-
guished gentlemen mentioned as a possible
Democratic candidate for governor has
sought it; none is unfit for it none would
probably refuse it; and any Of them can
beat Beaver.

Milan the Mighty.

That most placid royal ass, King Milan

A Question OF Principle.

We are glad to find some of our esteemed
contemporaries waking up to the fact that
the anti-oleomargarine bill, pending in the
Senate and passed the House, involves far
deeper reaching principle of government
and issue Of parties than has attached to it
in popular estimation. This is just what
the INTELLIGENCER contended for when
measure of this kind, even more vicious
in form, was adopted by the Pennsylvania
legislature and approved by the executive
We are rejoiced to see the Philadelphia
Times, for instance, which supported that
Doxious law, now denounce the milder
Dill pending in Congress as "a contempti-
BILE piece of demagogic class legislation"
That it certainly is was shown anew by
Senator ingalls,, when in The Senate debate
he held up a rival of iodine tincture, made
in Vermont, warranted TO add cents
pound 10 the value of butter colored with
1t ; and it was freely admitted by the sena-
( tors who want oleomargarine taxed for
buffers benefit that nearly all fancy and
high-priced butter is colored with foreign
matter. Why under the sun then one of
these competing articles should be taxed
and the other exempted is something that
nobody can understand except those who
have an interest in it.
1t is nothing to the point that seventy
per cent. of the people of this country are
farmers-or even butter makers, which
they are not. Oleomargarine is as much of
an agricultural product as butter. That it
should not be sold as butter is true: and
any law to protect the public from imposi-
tion and false preteuse is proper and
praiseworthy exercise of the police power
Of the state. But this congressional law to
tax oleomargarine out of existence, or our
still more unjustifable state law to pro-
hibit its manufacture and sale, are quite
another thing. The attempt to make them
out laws against fraud and deception is ut
terly disingenuous, not to say dishonest. Mr..
Vance stated it none too strikingly when
he said as well might tax be laid on natu-
raj gas wells to cripple their competition
with coal mines. Certainly cotton seed oil
must consistently come in for like prohi-
bition, since it has come to largely displace
butter, olive oil and lard.

lace in abundance, and then with q furious
flourish of trumpets the king pranced out
In the face Of the civilized world and an
nounced the conquest of Bulgaria. A few
months passed by and all the power of
Austria was needed to prevent Bulgaria
from conquering Servia.
And now this audacious warrior arises
before the Skuptschina and announces that
things are as they were before the war !:
and the Skupts applaud him, we suppose
as the most miraculous liar of the century.
Before the war Servia was the owner of
an army that inspired the fear and respect
of her weaker neighbors. She was ram
pant and aggressive. All the world looked
on and wondered what this spirited and
fiery young warrior, with his devoted SOL
diery athirst for glory, would accomplish.
The tournay is over, the knight with the
golden armor and trumpet-tongued her
aids has been defeated by the rough and
ready soldier he despised no one fears
him, all despse him and think that he had
marvellous good luck in saving his gold
plated life. Suddenly the voice of the her
aid is heard again, out ridt S the battered
warrior before the world. not to fling new
gage of battle, and endeavor to redeem
the glory that he claimed but never won,
but only to announce that the contest was
null and void, that the position of himself
and followers remained the same as before
the war. And the followers arose and
cheered him Cheerful people.

THE recent death in England Of Lady
Flora Wilmot has again called the attention
Of the public to the treacherous character Of
chloroform. Lady Wilmot went to a dentist $
office accompanied by physician, who ad-
ministered the drug and said, as the dentist
was drawing tooth, 81 hate giving ch!oro-
form for you dentists, because you will have
your patients sitting np." Only two drains
were used, and the patient had been under
its influence on two previous occasions, but,
although the most strenuous efforts were
made to restore her by the use of nitrate of
amyl and artificial respiration, they were all
OF no avail. The coroner's jury exonerated
both physician and dentist, but their action
has been severely criticized by competent
medical authority, and the well.kuown fact
that an element of danger al ways attends the
use of this powerful anfesthetc would have
Justlhed the jury in censuring the physician.
In difficult and dangerous surgery the use
OF chloroiorm is justified but in so simple an
operation as the removal of a tooth the patient
had better face the pain.
1t is often used in very small quantities on
cotton for the relief OF toot hache, and even in
this way great caution should be observed az

THE newspapers are recalling Paul Hamil-

Henry Timrod and Sidney Lanier, who, he
complained, suffered in life and died poor, be-
cause poetic genius is neglected and its works
"pay" poorly. But Hayne, who struck
as high notes as any of them, was content to
live less requited for his work, in the
humblest station, in a log cabin on the pine
covered mountains. Milton sold " Paradise
Lost for SO and Homer begged his daily

tended for his nativity. OF all men the
