Tsus FAR the bailiffs at the Court
House are doing their duty In q man
ner worthy of commentator. In the
past we have been obliged to find fault
with them several times, and Il is o
pleasure to be able 10 say that now
they are performing their duty In an
exemplary manner. II Is impossible
for the reporters to attend 10 their du-
ties, and give full and accurate reports
oi the proceedings such as the public
demands, unless the crowd 10 kept
back from their table. No one has a
right there except those who are work
ing for their papers. and 80 long as the
bailitfs assist the reporters by keep
ing their place clear, they will be en-
titled to their thanks as well as the
thanks OF the general public. We
however think that the Levy Court
should provide the bailifls with badge
OF their authority, and we hope this
will be attended TO.

IT WAS scarcely expected that ex-
Commander-in Chief Warner of the
G. A. r. would relinquish his law
practice of fifteen thousand dollars a
year TO accept the position OF Commis-
BiOner of Pensions. Still, 1t is sub.
ject of regret to the old soldiers that he
could not see his way clear TO do go, as
they know that he would have proved
q friend to them. While Mr. Warner
is, and always has been friend 10 the
veterans, he fortunately possesses
more discretion than Corporal Tanner,
and we do not know of better man
for the position. There may be others
who can and will fill the position in as
acceptable manner, but still, Mr.. War
ner is co well known to the old soldiers
that they would have liked TO see him
accept the office. We, however, have
sufficient faith in President Harrison
10 believe that he will appoint a mar
who will do Justice 10 the soldiers anC
the public.

THE Republicans of New Jersey are
up and doing. They have Just held
their State Convention. and nominated
General Grubb as their candidate for
Governor. The General is widely
known throughout the State, and has
an honorable record for his services
during the war for the suppression OF
the rebellion. He has always been
closely identified with the Republican
party, and he has done much TO ad-
vance the interests Of his State. The
nomination will not only prove accept
able to the Republicans Of New Jersey,
but will also secure the support OF
many Democrats who are heartily dis
satisfied and disgusted with the course
pursued by their party in the last Leg
islature. Ii the campaign is properly
conducted the Republicans will carry
the State.

WILMINGTON did nobly yesterday
In rt ceiving the Pcnnsylvanis veterans,
and we feel sure that they will long
remember their welcome. Almost
every building on Market street was
decorated, and in some instances the
display OF flags and bunting was very
elaborate. This was nothing more
than right, as these men risked their
lives and limbs to make this country
what 1t is to-day. Had 1t not been for
such men as composed the Ringgold
Battery and the One Hundred and
Twenty Fourth Pennsylvania ReGi-
ment this Union would have been de-
stroyed and the Republic would have
proved q failure. Therefore they are
worthy of all honors, and We are glad
10 see that this fact was appreciated by
our citizens yesterday. We have no
doubt but these veterans returned TO
their homes with pleasant recollec-
tions of their reception in the metropo-
lis of the Diamond State.

Fatal Prize Fight,

ST. LouIs, Sept, 1s.-A particularly
brutal and inurderous prize fight was
fought in saloon hero on Monday night

yoars. and "Ed" AherD, local light
weight champion. Eleven rounls were
fought and the hu nan hrutes and their
seconds were covered with blood, which
was drawn In each round. At the begin.
ming ofthe twelfth round jackson fell
senssless, and three physicians were call
ed In, but he died at eleven o'clock yes
terday morning. His mother, who had
been notified. was with him when he
died.

THE stand taken BY the Southern

THE stand taken by the Southern
Journals in relation to the recent out
rages upon colored people In that sec
tion, shows that there is decided
change in public sentiment within a
few years. The time was when some
of these very papers that are now con.
demning these outrages in unmeasur-
ed terms. were active In defending the
perpetrators, and placing the entire
Blame upon the victims. That there
bas been change, will be apparent
from the following, taken from the
New Orleans Picayune, a radical
Democratic journal:
''The bloody occurrence in Lafayette
Parish eau not be too highly condemned
nor too deeply deplored. We cannot
view this and other repetitions Of law.
less violence In Lafayette without feeling
that not only is there something seriously
wrong In the manifestation by a number
of Its citizens Of a tendency oil outbreak
ing and violent lawlessLess, but there is
nlso something greatly al fault In the exc
cution OF the laws there. A long course
of neglect in tuch matters by which Q
la'ge number of people have come to dis
regard the authorities aud to redress their
own wrongs without recourse to the Law
seems to have eliminated In the present
unfortunate state of affairs. Let the
good people of the parish combine to
put an immediate stop to these bloody
atrocities. in which the iair name of the
whole population is brought to disgrace. ="
That this change In sentiment Is not
confined to one section is evident from
the fact that the Memphis Avalanche,
another influential Democratic Jour.
nal, denounces these outrages as fol-
lows:
"The outrage reported from Laiay cite,
Ls., Is almost too horrible for belief.
That mob of white men could be so far
Cost TO every sentiment of humanity as to
muIder the old negro and his Innocent
daughter because he defended his house
1rom assault is q reflection that should
pot be lost upon honorable, law.Rbiding
boutheruers. White men must rule
here, but the thugs and assRssins of the
dominant race must be made TO und0r-
stand that murder will be visited by the
punishment pres ;ribed by law. This is
no question OF politics. 1t is a question
Of selfpreservation to the white people
as well as the black people OF the South.
Every drop OF blood wrongly shed erie,
10 heaven, and just as sure as there is a
God 1t will bring curse upon the land
that drinks it up. The mob or the in.
dvidual that does MURDERS work strikes
at the root OF society and brands the fair
front of civilization with the mark oI
Cain"
The papers of South Carolina,
Florida, Alabama and Georgia speab
In similar terms, and it seems now
That II Is about time the dough -iacet
Democratic journals OF the North had
ceased to defend these midnight as
saseins or 10 ridicule the reports 0
outrages when they are made public

signed last Saturday. Charles NJ. Rice,
auditor and general freight and psssen-
ger agent, young man who had worked

of another auditor and an expose OF his
books, Rice confessed deialcation o

conduct, only admitting that he "needed
the money and took It, expecting to re
turn 1t In the future"

Some years ago the city OF Phila-
delplia bought League Island and PIE
Eentsd II to the United States as site
for Navy Yard. 1t is conceded that
with the many natural advantages
possessed by this place, it Is the most
valuable navy yard site owned By the
government. 1t is located where
there is an abundance OF fresh water
aud within easy access of the great
coal and iron mines of Pennsylvania
Notwithstanding all these advantages,
the Secretary of the Navy, who by the
by is from New York, las oIlered
that this yard shall be closed aud
when demonstrated with concerning
this action positively refuses to rescind
the order, unless directed 10 do 60 by
Congress
Il is very probable that this will be
done, as the yard is too valuable to be
allowed TO remain idle. The navy yerd
at Brooklyn, which seems 10 be the
special object Of Secretary Tracy's SO
licitude, cannot compare with League
Island, which. if half the money wai
expen led upon i. that las been uscC
al Brooklyn n, would be the finest nsva
station in the world. AS the people o
Delaware have local interest in tht
continuance of this navy yard, II Il
hoped that our Senators and Repre-
sentativcs will act with the Pennsyl
vania delegation at the next session o
Congress in demanding that Leagu
Island navy yard be completed,
fitted up and put in active operation.

Did you long to 20
abroad this Summer and

have been disappointing, but
yet there are e,zns6s Of com.
fort for you-perhaps q
whole loaf.
You missed the Paris Ex-
position. That loss cannot
be rec uped. You missed
the discomforts of an over
crowded city in the Summer.
That's a gain. You missed
The Bon Marche and Louvre,
and all the beautiful new
dresses and things you
would have bought had you
been there-so you think
as you sigh and are sad.
Just here you are wrong.
You haven't missed them;
your chances are not lost.
Trade progress has evolved
the great retail system. and
more than the Bon Marche
is not merely a possibility, it
is a fact right here In Phila-
'delphia.
You did not miss chances
in Paris; the chances missed
you, and In the fitness Of
things they have come here
to seek you. The new, beau
titul stufls of your dreams
are here in larger variety
and richer profuslon than
the stores of Paris will show,
waiting only your selection
and command to become
