THE action of the police authorities in
ordering the tin horn nuisance to be stopped at
i o'clock, last night, is deserving of praise
There is no reason why strenuous partisans
should either express their jubIlatlons or miti-
gate their sorrows by making night hideous
As a matter of fact the tin horn nuisance exists
simply because license is offered to the small
boy to turn election night into a saturnalia.
The action of the police in putting a check on
unlimited noise is a good one, and it is to be
hoped that it may set the precedent for more
quiet and order on future election nights.

The discovery of gold and silver in the
hills belonging to the Chickasaw Nation in the
Indian Territory is expected to produce an in
huence on the future OF that tribe of Indians
Judging from previous experience with regard
to the discovery of precious metals on Indian
lands, it will result in the Chickasaws being DIS
possessed of their property by the easiest way
open to the hungry prospectors, If the mines
prove rich enough to Gepreciate the price of
silver, it is to be supposed that it will also re-
quire the United States Treasury to buy more
silver.

from such violent but intermittent attacks
on human life are probably not half of those
caused by the quiet, steady, but remorseless,
progress of pulmonary diseases. The mind
would gladly accept the truth OF the report
that Koch has made the discovery; but rea-
son will still make us incredulous as to any
other means of getting rid OF it than to stop
its reproduction in future generations.

YOU'LL HAVE TO PAY.

You NAV lew and screw your neighbor out Of every
cent he OWNS;
You may fry the fat of life away, and leave MIN
but the bones:
You may kick the underpinning out from those
who try to climb
Up tothings that promise better; you may spend
your leisure time
Drawing interest from others till your purse is fat
and strong,
Till your credit is established and your bank ac-
count is long:
That's all true;
But mark you'll
Sometime or other, as sure as the day,
Justice will come and you'll have to pay.

THE murder OF Tarentum constable who
was trying to arrest couple of burglars
should put the police officials everywhere on
the alert to detect and punish not only these
burglars. but all criminals of that class. In the
meantime, if the officers of the law cannot sup
press murderous criminals it will be the duty
of citizens everywhere to learn to be quick on
the trigger, in defense of their homes.

General Booths Scheme.

From the Boston Hefald.1
However socialistic his plans may seem, he
has one great advantage over other workers
among the slum people, and this is in the fact
that the Salvation Army is largely composed of
men and women who have been in close touch
with those whom they now desire to reform
and benefit Tney are better able than pro-
fessed phianthropists, or any number Of high
class workers among the very poorest people,
to reach and improve the neglected masses,
because they know better how to reach them.

IT is an interesting evidence of the way in
which politicians regard attempts 20 falsify an
honest election that is given by the statement
that the second lot of arrests of assessors in
Philadelphia for padding the election lists was
made in retaliation for the first arrests. Here
is an allegation to the effect that to arrest men
for filling up their lists with bogus names is an
encroachment on one party which calls for re-
talIatlon on its part Men who take such
view are obviously incapable of honest politics.

SOME very peculiar things will appear
from a study of the ward returns. One pre-
clnct will show heavy gain for Pattison; an
other, adjacent to it will give Republican
gain. 1t would naturally be supposed that the
causes which affected the votes in one precinct
would be felt in the neighboring one; but the
contrasts which appear in adjacent localities
are so marked as to be suggestive Of fine work
somewhere.

Especially plain and forcible too. in this neck
of the public domain. He has heard men
whom he considered good, high and mighty
criticised and dissected. Surely some of the
drops from the dirty linen hung on the political
clothes line have touched him. He hardly
lodged them all. I listened to a group around
precinct bonfire early yesterday morning dis
cussing the merits of the leading candidates
1t was Pap saws this and Pap says that. Mr..
Soanso is an awful bad man and Mr.. Otherfel-

seekers after Office laid on the dissecting table

the saw of conscience cut and rip them to bits.

know. And how the little chaps do pick up the

character breaking, character making. And
SO it is, and so it ever shall be, unless Pap and
the grown up sons discuss politics beyond the
reach of the sharp young ears. The little fel-
lows who have heard only the echoes of the
fight which ended yesterday must have very
queer opinion of the men who are called to
rule in the halls where laws are made and un-

Let all the bells in the city clang,
Let all the guns in the city bang,
Let all the flags in the city hang,
All voices shout together.
Glorious this awful noise
Which the city now enjoys,
Made by men as well as boys
Who use politics for toys
In every sort of weather.
For it tells US what's been done,
Who is Pennsylvania's Son,
Who the battle royal won
With the setting of the sun
When the polls closed yesterday;
Tells us who has been turned down.
Tells US who has been done brown,
Whose the face that wears frown,
Who has lost the Keystone crown
In the game the voters play.
Peace will reign here for awhile;
No more oily tongues beguile,
No more patriots will smile
In the hypocritic style
Which makes the people shiver.
On the stream of life we'll float,
Beyond the reach of jarriug note
OF bidders for the precious vote;
For they will be aboard the boat
That's sailing up Salt River!
