The Prohibition partX.

The Prohibition party still lives and
has held q lively convention at Harris
burg and nominated candidate for
state treasurer. II is saying a good deal
for the vitality of the party that II has
been able TO get on its feet again so soon
after its June knock down, when 1t
got q fall that seemed heavy enough to
break Its bones. If there is one thing
that may be assumed to be settled, at
least with people who are wont to be con
WINGED by evidence, II is that prohibi-
ton will not in this generation be the
policy Of Pennsylvania.
The Prohibition party, however, as is
the wont Of the enthusiast, lives In the
Idea that truth is mighty and will pre-
vail, sooner or later and as they are
profoundly convinced that the prohibi-
tion of intoxicants is the great need of
humanity, they deem 1t their duty to
peg away at their plan. Perhaps, too,
they are particularly lively just now be-
cause Of their anger at their treatment
by the Republican leaders, who pretend
ed to defend their project only to desert
1t IN its extremity and give it the hard fall
that 1t got in the special election they or
dered for its benefit. There is nothing like
anger to make body lively, and il has
tobe dead indeed If it has not life enough
left to kick when it thinks that it sees
the fellows that gave it its wounds. Mr..
Quay, who has been industriously adver-
tising himself us the man who carries
the Republican party, particularly of
Pennsylvania, in his breeches pocket, is
the especial target now of Prohibition
wrath. He faithfully promised to be
theirs truly and he either betrayed
them or does not lead his party. From
the choice of one of these conclusions
there is no escape and the Prohibition
lists do not seem to have much doubt
that there was plenty of lack of faith in
his attitude toward them, however much
may have been the lack of boasted power
in his hands.
There is no greater sign Of Republican
decrepitude than the fact that the party
attributes its salvation TO the handling
Of Quay, and is content TO accept its
life as the gift of the disreputable
methods in which alone he has any
claim to be skillful. That great party
should be the creature of so common q
fellow is sufficient testimony of its de-
crepitude.

Democratic Ohio.

The Democratic convention Of Ohio,
has nominated James Il. Campbell for
governor, and will make very strong
and very hopeful fight for his election.
Ohio Is In good case to-day for Demo-
cratic victory. Her Republican COVER
nor has been nominated for third
term, though he has not the esteem Of
the state and is not popular In II. He Is
very assailable and will encounter very
vigorous attack. Ohio is tired Of Re-
publicanism and is ready for a Demo-
cratic embrace. The whole eOanty is In
like condition. This Republican ad-
ministration is dreadfully tiresome
concern and the haste with which IL
would be shaken off for liveller rider
cannot he doubted.

Hs.srable Veterans.

y q The day is not far distant when an
hooOfabje discharge nom the Union
amy or navy shall be all the evidence
toquifed 10 secure a pension to Its
bo5der.n So said Commander Warner,
oflhe Grand Army, in his address before
~ delegates at Milwaukee. Pensions
Vim not be limited to those disabled In
~ service but will be paid 10 all who
have served. True Commander Warner
= careful to use the word honorable in
Gescribing the discharge as the only
evidence required, but as an honorable
discharge has just been declared quite
unnecessary II must he understood that
he merely uses the word because of its
pleasant sound. Assistant Secretary
B1ssey has lately declared that a dis
honorable discharge from the service
shall not operate as bar TO pension,
ana Commander Warner being well
aware Of this must have realized that bis
prophecy really looked forward to a time
when all men who had been in the mil
itary service during the war, whether
deserters or bounty jumpers, or brave
and honorable soldiers and sailors, would
be entitled to pension. Evidently
the association Is not pleasing to the
mind of the commander, q, IL cer-
tainly is insulting TO every honorable
veteran. The only notice taken Of this
insult from Mr.. Bussey, was the offer
ing of o resolution which was greeted
with applause, and promptly buried by
reference TO a committee. This resolu-
ton came from the New York delega-
tion and mildly protested against plac-
! Ing on the pension rolls men dishonor-
ably discharged from the service. It
remains TO be seen whether the grand
army men will be satisfied to let the
matter rest In this way, and will pockes
the insult involved in decision that
. deserter has as good a right to claim "a
pension as faithful veteran of many
battles. Another point worth noticing
II that Commander Warner progresses
one step further than Pension Commits.
eioner Tanner who has just decided that
an applicant for a pension need only
have the evidence of one private soldier.
The commander does away with even
this single witness in his prophecy of the
good time coming, when all survivors
will have pensions. We now spend
more than ninety millions n year in pen
sions besides supporting the great sol
dier' homes but, If the policy indicated
b carried out the figures will probably
run beyond the billion mark and taxa
ton will have to I've increased. II l.
evidently part of the plan for main
tanning high taxes, and pushing the
surplus question out of sight, that vast
sums should be distributed In pensions
and the managers find this idea the
more charming because they confidently
expect to command the soldier vote will,
that hard cash. We believe that very
large proportion of the veterans Of the
war will resent this open attempt to buy
their allegience to policy so clearly
against the best interests of the country
they fought to defend.

a rURTUrArRI rAINTrN0 SPELL.


HOW Lehigh County FARMER Escapcd
From Three shsrpsrs.
Abnbam Bechtel, = wealthy farmer
living in Lower Milford, I.chigh county,
on Monday came near being victimi.ed
not been for q faiutlng spell which came
over his daughter, the scheme Of set Of
sharpers would have been successful. Two
mep, well dressed and driving a stylish
team, called at his house that morning and
agricultural subjects. They asked the
price Of farms I'm that vicinity, one of
them saying he was negotiating for the pur-
chase Of one few miles distant. Mr.. Bech-
tel was asked 10 accompany them TO this
farm, as the men wished TO have his judg-
ment in the matter, knowing him as q man
of sound sense and experience. Being
promised good sum for his services he on
tered the carriage and drove off with them.
They were an engaging set and the old
farmer was delighted with bis new friends.
They had not proceeded half mile before
they met man coming along the road,
who inquired the way to q certain farm,
saying that he was looking for a young
girl, and that If he found her, he would
como into possession OF a big SUN OF
money. After some further talk cxplana-
tory OF his errand, he pulled out three cards
and soon engaged the two other sharpcrs
in a game. The old farmer looked on and
soon was interested. lie was asked TO take
part In several friendly games, winning
every time. 1t was then proposed 10 form
sides OF two each and play for stakes. This
was agreed 10, and In a short time the
farmer and his partner won 5000 each.
Before the money was passed over. how
ever, Mfr. Bechtel was required TO put up
an equal sum of money to show that in the
event he had lost he would have been able
to pay. He said he did not have that
amount at tho house, but he was told to get
what he had and he could give notes for
tho balance. With one Of tho sharpers he
returned to the house, but when he told
his family what he was after there was
commotion. They told him ne was being
duped by swindlers and should re-
main at home, but the prospect Of
winning 5000 was too much for him, and,
after getting all the money he had, $1,000,
he was about to return to the place whero
the game was being played, when one of
his daughters, overcome with excitement
and fear, tainted dead away lie fastened
to her side and helped revive her. Seeing
that his game was lost, the sharper lost no
time In Joining his companions, and, to-
gctber, they left TO seek victims elsewhere.
Farmer Bechtel when reasoned with, saw
the folly of his proceedings, and says that
fainting spell Of his daughter was worth
S. 900 to him.

A City Father,

A conspicuous career in our city life
has ended with the death of Robert A.
Evans. Mr.. Evans has been more closely
identified with the city government
during this generation than any other
citizen, and has had, by far, more infiu-
ence over its conduct than any other.
He was forceful man, fond Of his own
way and successful in getting it, Gener-
ally his ideas for the city government
were good, though his disposition in
ciined him to a greater closeness ia ex-
penditure than true economy might
have directed but while his judgment
was failible, il was far more than ordi-
narily good, and the city has profited
greatly by his connection with it and
bis labor In its behalf in many ways. 1t

man Of more than ordinary capacity,

nearly fifty fights.

he incline to Be . city father, tAat Mr..
Evans has bsen unique figure In our
city Affairs FOR many years.
II would be well indeed II more men
Of his standing were induced to take an
active interest In the city government.
We are very sure that there Is great room
for improvement In the management Of
city affairs. Mr.. Evans was chiefly
interested in its finances, and they arc
In good condition. But when we look at
the streets and the money that Is poured
upon them and the dust that cumbers
them, we cry aloud for men who Will give
us something for our money and who
know something of what they under

A SAN FRANCISCO man, with abobby for
carrier pigeons, went TO Japan last week
and took number of the birds with him.
One of the birds returned to the pigeon lon
in San Francisco, on "Wednesday, and did
not seem greatly exhausted. The owner
has not been heard from, and IL is not
known where tho bird was liberated, as the
message fastened 10 its leg was merely
brief "all's we'll" San Francisco dispatches
intimate the possibility of the establish
ment of a trans Pacific pigeon service to be

THE United labor League of Philadel-
phia had an interesting discussion lately of
the advisability of urging the appointment
of labor man on the state revenue com
mission. One delegate thought that 1t was
not entirely consistent for representative
of labor to be engaged in taxing people,
though he failed TO explain just why.
People must be taxed more or less, and as
| the tax falls indirectly on labor, IL would
| seem to be quite right for representative
| of the workingmen TO have his say in the
| matter. The same delegate took occasion
To advise his hearers TO slap scalawag poll
ticians in the face when said politicians
greeted them with palavor. In this savage
and thoughtless advice he did not find
many believers, and another delegate
boldly and sensibly declared that it was
praiseworthy in men TO become poll
ticians, and To take hand in the
affairs of government. There are too many
men ready to denounco politicians and the
ways of politics and too few ready to pitch
in and lend the weight of their better prin-
ciples to elevate the business. II is very
refreshing to hear "A man speak out en-
couraging others to take an honest part in
political matters. Corruption and chican-
cry hamper all the workings of our sys-
TENS of government, local and national, be.
cause of n lack of that public spirit which
should inspire good citizens to activity in
politics. The word politician has become
a term of contempt and it has even been
said with some force that there Is honor
among thieves, but no honor among politi-
clans. As 50 applied, however, 1t is well
understood to mean the professional opera
tor of blocks of five and unscrupulouS
worker for a boss or ring, and in its COM
mon usage the word still holds its honor

CoRroRAL TANNER, in his speech on
Grand Army Day last week at Chautauqua.
~ y, said s90,0O0,0o0 was given TO pen
sloners last year. but there would be much
more for veterans next wear. The COM
missioner of pensions evidently expects TO
do great deal of re-rating, and he will
surely do enough of it TO hand am estimate
| exceeding s9o,0o0,0o0 10 the congress
sional COMMITTEES. 1t will soon re-
| quire nine figures 10 state the APP
| preparation for pensions. The Demo
| cratic administration continued the
usual liberal pension policy, but the gang
now at the head of affairs have already
overstepped the line, and their indiscrimi-
| nate raid on the treasury is noticed by the
| public. The amount devoted to pensions
approximates thirty per cent. of the gov
| ernments revenue, and If Tanner adheres
| 10 his present course four years hence will
hnd the taxpayers not so willing TO con-
unue an administration 50 reckless with
the public funds.

IN the Wbitechapel district of London
thero Is Il population of twenty thousand
people with the largest proportion of Grim
inals to be found anywhere on earth and
only one church. The coroner in summing
up the evidence of the last murder by Jack
the Ripper suggested that tho old rookerics
and tenements of this quarter should he
torn down and new buildings erected.
Such a change would scatter the miserable
and degraded people of Whitechapel al
over London and into the surrounding
country, so that IL might not be looked for
ward to with pleasure by the people Of the
districts so threatened with invasion, but
IL is clear that some radical action must
soon be taken TO remove this gigantic nest
of villainy. The failure to apprehend the
terrible Jack indicates the natural advan-
tagcs of the district for people who need 10
dodge the police. That lunatic has been 50
successful in keeping out Of sight that the
theory Is now generally adopted that ho
wears the uniform ofa constable.
