Mount Joy school they repaired TO the
Chest ier Springs school, in the adjoining
county, of which James /. Paul, who
up to the first of last January filed the
position of chief clerk in the Depart
ment of Orphans Schools at Harrisburg,
is one of the owners or contractors and
also the manager in charge. In some
respects this school showed slight i'm
provement on that at Mount Joy scarce
ly worthy of notice, however, and while
the Governor and Mr. Cassidy were in
the act of leaving for Harrisburg they
were grossly insuited in the presence OF
Paul by some of the larger boys. per
formance for which they had evidently
been trained by Paul himself or some
one else who exercises supervision over
them. The school at Whitehall, in
Cumberland county, was next visited,
where much greater care and attention
seem to be given to the children than at
/ the other two above named With this
school Wright and Paul have no connec-
ton, but Moore, the manager, stub
bornly refused to exhibit his books or to
sell how much money he made in year
out of his management of the institu-

Attorney General went to the McAlIis-

little, if any. better than that at Mount

ment. On Monday last the Governor
and Mr.. Cassidy arrived at Mercer, the
home OF George W. Wright and also of
Gordon, one of his partners in farming

one at Mercer, and remained there until

but his brother, R. r. Wright, the gen.

THE Clarion Jdcksonidn. a Democratic
paper. made the charge last week against
President Judge T. 8. Wilson, of the
Clarion and Jefferson district. that when
be was a candidate last fall he made a
promise to grant a license to a hotel
keeper for his influence in securing
votes at the election; and with having
asked another citizen, after other in
ducemeuts had failed. whether money
would secure his support The paper
also asserts that in one election district
a certain sum per head was offered for
Wilson votes. The editor Of the Jack.
soni1n claims to have affidavits sust ain
ing these charges and boldly invites
Judge Wilson to institute legal proceed
ings against him in which their truth
may be inquired into. These are most
serious and startling accusations 10
make against any candidate for office,
but they ara especially so when made
against a man who occupies a high jn-
dicial position, and we cannot see how
Judge Wilson can refuse TO accept the
EDITORS invitation TO bring suit against
him and have the entire matter submit
ted to the ordeal of a court and jury.
If be refuses 70 avail himself Of this al
tentative public confidence in him will
be impaired and his usefulness as a
Judge will be utterly DESTROYED. The
