A passenger train from Harrisburg,
Pa, reached this city over the G. V.
Railroad extension, about O'Clock
Tuesday. 1t contained three cars and
brought number of passenger, chief
ly officials of the road. Quite num-
Der of citizens were at the new depot
to see the arrival. Everything is now
in readiness for general traffic, and we
trust that the expectations of the COM
pany may be more than realized.
BURGLARY.-Early Sunday morn.
ing some unknown person forced an
entrance into B. & o. Railroad car,
near the depot, and, with long spike,
pried the lock off the Union News
Co.. trunk and stole therefrom candy,
cigars, ETC.. to the value Of eight OF
ten dollars.

The Shrinking of Powderl,

1t is only two years since General
Master Workman Powderly lat the head
Of the Knights eff Labor, was striking
figure in the nation. No foreigner could
then visit the United States without
being impressed with the power and
prospects Of the head of this rapidly
growing order. Now it is probable that
even the South American delegates, who
have been exploring the land so thor
oughly, are quite unaware of the exist
ence of Mr.. Powderly. He dominated
the land like turkey gobbler with all
his tail feathers. The very indefinite
and sentimental character of his adj
dresses seemed warranted by the
almost kingly position he seemed to
ill as the director Of many thousands of
working men. He had happy faculty
OF talking In a way TO claim popular
sympathy, aud If he seemed devoted TO
to lofty distractions and visionary
schemes Of reform, this only made him
more heroic figure In the eyes of a
wondering nation, which halfexpected TO
see human affairs Ieadjusted according
TO Powderly.' Now he still continues
that style Of talk, but the effect is differ
ent. His address TO the Chicago con-
vention Is only briefly noticed in most
Of the newspapers and its advocacy of
all sorts al gigantic reforms TO be ae-
complished In some unknown way
~ the bsdly crippled order 10 decidedly
Lancaster daily intelligencer. [volume] (Lancaster, Pa.) 1864-1928, 1889-11-14

grotesque. He offers to take half
pay or less, suggests various economies,
talks ofamalgamation with the Farmers
Alliance and then launches out In his
old lofty style, eulogizIng the order, ad-
vocating tax reform, eight hour labor
and other things. II Is the old voice of
the gobbler with no tail feathers back
of IL. Aud even the voice appears to
he cracking. If correctly reported,
Mr.. Powderly said that q million
murders would bc better than to
allow the order 20 die. OF course this
was only sentiment, but it Is not the
kind of sentiment that any man has a
right to teach. 1t is the sentiment for
which the Clan-Na Gael Is on trial. To
hold that anything should be defended
by murder is atrocious. He no doubt
meant that II would he better to suffer q
million murders but even that idea Is too
wild and bloody for use. Some Guiteau,
herring Mr.. Powderly, might straight
way go and massacre few enemies of
the order, and even men as sane rs the
Irish agitators are misled by statements
like this.

The Good Samaritan.

The columns Of the INTELLIGENCER
are Hospitality open to all disagreeing
Republican friends upon the matter of
the postoffice and the other federal
Offices that are ready to be fed out
to the hungry birds. A Republican
who writes to us to-day, notes
the fact, which has been very
open to public observation, that our
two Republican daily cotemporaries are
sailing along in close convoy under what
seems to be an anti-administration, anti
congressman and anti-senatorial flag
In other words the Fedora. ooint-
ments made and proposed do not at all
suit them. The appointment of Mr..
Griest as postmaster is not agreeable to
either of these exponents of Re-
publican sentiment, and there is oh
vious occasion that the Republicans,
to whom it is agreeable, should
ask the use of the columns of the
INrELLIoESCER, and it is cheerfully
rendered them. We must be under
stood, however, as taking no hand
ourselves in this dispute, which is
one wholly among our Republican
citizens and ttfut in opening the
1NTELLrGENCER'S columns to the friends
OF Congressman Brosius, Senator Quay
and President Harrison, we are but
doing the work of the Good Samaritan
and giving aid to the enemy in his need
We find that President Harrison has
given to Senator Quay, with whom
Senator Cameron sails along in placid
agreement, the disposition of the Penn
sylvania offices. The testimony of the
Quay-Cameron's concord is plainly writ
ten In the collectorship selection. We
see that Congressman Brosius is in
like accord; as his nomination of Mr..
Griest teaches. We do not see any occa-
sion to doubt the course of the disposition
Of the federal offices In the county !;
and We note the Examiners con-
clusion to the same effect in
its expression that clique of
Office holders have control of
these appointments. The Enom,ino'
does not travel with the company; and
the Ne,u Era is likewise out of line with
1t. The ISTELLIGENCER of course is
AWAY off on the other side, but it has, as
we say, so catholic a sympathy with
the distresses of humanity that il
lends ready helping aid from where
soever the cry comes forth, and gives
Its succor cheerfully to the organizes
friends of Quay, Brosius and the ad-
ministration.

Mr.. Blaine's Congress.

The Pan-American congress has re-
turned to Washington from its journey
through the states, and we await with
interest Its performance now that 1t is
about to get down to the business for
which it assembled; If it knows what
that Is. There Is some indefiniteness
about it, and the people of this country
ut least do not understand just what this
convocation means. They see that the
South American representatives have
been made acquainted By personal IN
spection with the industries and institu-
tions Of the country and they understand
that 1t is with view to closer in
tercourse Of the people of the Amer
lean continents. They know that the
enterprise Is in charge OF Secretary
Blaine and they know that Secretary
blaine has q fondness for fireworks as
an accompaniment Of his performances.
They EXPECT good show at least OF
brilliant results from this Congress, and
they will certainly get 1t If Rlaine's
hand has not lost its cunning. He has
been a very hum-drum figure so far
under this administration, and it Is not
q condition to which his reputation as
signs him. From this quietude we may
look for n brilliant awakening and some
startling effects. If the American eagle
Is not made To soar, we may be sure
that the secretary Of state is in very
decrepit and damaged condition. This
congress il all his own; and he has every
opportunity to get out of ii all the eclat II
can be made to yield. This government
Is the big dog in the pack and can make
the running what it will. Mr.. Blaine
has started Off by showing The
South American delegates what big
dog it Is that has invited them to this
conference and the secretary of state
may be supposed TO have them in 1
state of mind that will induce them {,
lend ready ear to any propositions
that he may have to make them
The whole hemisphere is the field that
he has before him, finding himself tn,
director general of the policy of one
great nation of the western world
Secretary Seward connected his nam'
imperishably with the purchase o
Alaska, and put the northern boundaries
of the United States up against the Arc.
tic circle. Secretary Blaine may SEE
Secretary Seward's performance and dc
better, with the whole field Of Southern
America and the Pacific ocean open to
him. Let us put ourselves in readiness
for fireworks.

Women are lovely creatures and
the world would be a desolate
waste without them; but women,
like men, sometimes eXaggefate,
which to The female race means
gossip. Last week the National
Teachers Association met in Nash
Vile, Tenn. Prof. Garfield, of Kan

Association; Mrs. Garfield, his
wife, was with him and was royalty
entertained by The good ladies of
Nashville; given free access TO the
city, free rides, free everything.
She repaid this kindness with let

Topeka, in which she abused the
South, advocated social equality of
the races and said she expected 10

peared to be splendid Republican

his resignation as president of the

home in disgrace, and The polili-.
