Children Made Happy,

WASHINGTON, Dec. 2S.-The celebra-
tons by the Central and East Washington
Christmas clubs were held to-day. and the
philanthropic efforts of the committee were
rewarded with perfect success. Happiness
was bestowed upon nearly 1,500 children,
and the festivities were most heartily en-
tered into by the benefactors and benefc-
aries. The celebrations compared in all
respects favorably with those of preceding
years.

A Flagrant Count Out.

The election officers of East Drumore
township, this county, did very arbitrary,
unjust and illegal thing in the way they
counted the votes for school director at
the late special election in that township,
made nect ssary by the recent division
Of the Drumore district into two
townships. There were to be elected
three school directors-one for three years,
one for two years and one for year. Elias
Aument was the Republican candidate for
the three year term, and +. NJ. Stauffer,
the Democratic nominee Aument received
1l6 votes and Stauffer l23; and yet these
election officers returned Aument elected.
Although Stauffer received his entire 123
votes for three years he was only credited
with 10 for the long term, 2 for the two
year term and II for the single year. The
election board justify their action On the
ground that IL of the Stauffer votes were
on stickers pasted over the name of James
Maxwell, the Republican candidate for one
year; and 2 were pasted over the name of
George Evans, Republican candidate for
two years. Notwithstanding every vote
for Stauffer read:
L. NJ. srAUFFER, YRS,
upon the subterfuge they adopted they di-
yided his vote thus:
f. NJ. Stsuffsr, ll0 votes, 8 yrs.
=. NJ. Stauffer, votes yrs.
Il. NJ Stauffer, IL votes, yr.
And so they counted Aument in.
This will not do. Either ignorantly or
Intentionally the election board has done
gross wrong. Stauffer was elected
Aument was not; his certificate is a fraud.
Strictly the tickets bearing the names of
both Stauffer and Aument for the three
year term should not have been counted at
all. This would have left Stauffer's vote
ITO and reduced Aument's to 1O3; electing
stauffer by majority. This error should
not be allowed to stand.

As to Methods Of Trade.

An esteemed correspondent, at greater
length than we can find space to print,
takes exception to the INTELLIGENcER's
criticism of the new law forbidding mer-
chants to give checks or tickets represent
ing gifts with purchases. Our cores
pondent criticises this mode of doing busi-
ness, as calculated to give one tradesman
an advantage over another, and to pro-
mote the business of some at the expense
of their competitors.
This may be true. The entire gift sys-
TEN, and all Cheap John methods of ad-
verti,ing and of attracting customers may
be demoralizing to the steadiness of trade.
But our contention is that these things are
not to be regulated by penal statute. 1t is
no more demoralizing to trade to give
presents with purchases than to " cut "
cost or to resort to the thou
sand other devices employed daily to
draw custom. If a statute were proposed
making it a misdemeanor for merchants to
sell goods below fair profit, or to control
in any manner their ways of doing bust
ling character, it would be very promptly
resisted by the entire mercantile COM
munity.
Certainly, it will not be maintained that
it is any more demoralizing to give checks
or tickets representing gifts than to give
the gifts themselves. If the legislature
cannot forbid the gift of piece of glass
ware with three pounds of coffee, upon
what principle can it prevent the issue of
ticket representing third of the gift with
one pound of coffee. The question answers
itself.
So does our correspondents interrogatory
as to how we would like it if rival news
p,per-should such concern be imagina-
ble-proposed to give each of its patrons a
cent cigar weekly as a premium. We
would like it irst-rate. 1t would be doubt
less bad cigar and poor newspaper and
everybody would have to subscribe for the
INTELLIeENCER, agood newspaper, which
prints all the news.

Slowly but surely and steadily the anti
oleomargarine bill is finding its level, not
only in popular estimate but in Congress.
In TIE Senate there was vote of only ~ to
II to send it to the committee on agricul-
ture those who were not favorable to the
measure voting to commit it to the finance
committee. IL it is tax bill it surely be-
ljnged to the last named committee and
the vote of its friends shows that they rec
ognize its false pretenses. 1t IS said some
senator's who voted to send it to the CON-
mittee on agriculture will vote to make
material amendments, and that the belief
prevails that the tax will be reduced from
five to one cent per pound, if the tax is not
entirely struck out. The dogs tail will be
cut OFF an inch at a time until the amputa-
ting process reaches his ears.
One Isaac Stephenson, a member of Con.
gress from Wisconsin, on his way home
told the Pittsburg newspapers that although
he voted for the bill, as the representative
of a dairy constituency, he does not like 1t,
he does not think it will pass the Senate
and he cannot say that he hopes it will.
1t is doomed to defeat; because it is in-
herently false and fallacious.

WHILE kotheaded congressman are vast
ing much valuable time in making personal
explanations of mutual scrimony, it might
be well for some OF them to cast their eyes
down on the United States prison at Fort
Smith, Arkansas. According TO Miss Anna
l.. Dawes, it is a cellar, divided in the middle
by brick wall into two large rooms, each
fhy-tive feet long and twenty-nne feet
broad, and about seven feet high. The only
windows are underneath the verandas at the
ends of the building There is no current OF
air through the cellar, and during the long,
hot, dry summers it is impossible to keep it
tolerably cool. In these two cellar apart
ments, when the statement was written, 100
prisoners were packed. In the night the in
mates sleep upon wooden benches which are
slowed away during the daytime. In this
miserable den, all persons awaiting trial for
ofienses against the United States are thrust
Murderers and desperadoes of all kinds are
brought in contract with men whose worst
otfense is misdemeanor. Young and old,
guilty and innocent, are condemned to suffer
in this black hole of "A Jail, under circum-
stances OF the most revolving and debasing
character. Nine men charged with murder
were in the place, and freely associatng
with them were mere boys accused of violat-
ing some law against supplying the Indians
with arms or liquor. No work is possible in
the cellar prison, and the prisoners loaf and
lounge away their time. Congress should
speedily see that this Black Hole of Calcutta
is abolished

THE efloit to hold an American exhibition
in London is receiving considerable support
both financially and through the press, and
gives good promise of success. At the ban
quet given in Philadelphia on Monday to the
Hon. +. Il. Washburne a decided boom was
given TO the movement through the rose
colored speeches OF that gentleman, Mr.
Thomas Cochran, and Others and il half that
they say of the eager curiosity of foreigners
in regard TO the matter is true, the enterprise
will amply repay our business princes Tor all
the money, time and trouble they may give
to il.
The Centennial exhibition gave a renewed
impetus TO American foreign commerce, al
though barely one per cent. of all the visitors
were Foreigners and it is urged that an exhi-
billion OF American products in London
would so demonstrate their superiority, as to
create demand from the mass of the people
for the products of Americas more intelligent
labor and boosted inventive genius.
The one vital fact which Is at the bottom of
all this agitation Tor the building of foreign
trade, Is the evident necessity that lies be.
fore our manufacturers OF finding some
outlet Tor their product in times of depres-
sion.
The history Of business in civilized times
Is one long and dreary suoce ,sion of alternat-
Ing periods OF good and of hard times, and

thoroughly succeeds in altering this state of
