A COMING FACTOR.

The review of the growth of the Farmers
Alliance in Pennsylvania, which is given
in special telegram, shows that orgauiza-
tion to be spreading among the farmers of
this State at a rate that promises to give it
importance in the political situation before
many years have passed. The objects of the
organization are sufficiently distinct from
those of the Grangers to make it attractive
to the farmers; and its political aims, while
not so radical as those which have been
adopted in the South. are far enough ad
vanced to make some revolutions in legisla-
tion when the organization attains strength
enough to make itself felt At present its
membership is not strong enough to force
hearing from the political powers that be;
and the political custom is not to look far
enough ahead to anticipate the appearance
of new factors. But the Farmers AlIi-
ance may make itself felt in the not very
distant future.

CURE FOR SNAKE BITES.
Two Antidotes That Have Been Tried and
Never Known TO Fall.

Two Antidotes That Have Been Tried and
Never Known TO Fall.
From the st. Louis Republic.1
From Condor, Gillian county, Ore, DR.. W.
F, Alexander writes that during the "A years he
has practiced his profession eight cases of rat
tlesnake and copperhead bites have been sue
cessfully treated by him. His principal remedy
was discovered in 1851, while treating Edward
landlord for a rattler bite on top of the right
foot. Blood was oozing from the eyes, ears,
nose. mouth and other openings in landlords
body. He had swallowed large quantities of
whisky. and was nearly dead when the doctor
took him in hand. In lieu of ammonia DR.. AL
exander administered strong solution con-
cocted from the following formula: Iodide of
potassium, ounce; pure water, 16 ounces; mix.
The dose is adessertspoontul once in 20 minutes.
In one case the first dose was rejected by the
stomach but the second dose, given in five
minutes, was retained and at once allayed the
nausea and the man recovered in eight days.
DR.. Alexander works on the theory that
snake poison is intensely aciduous and iodide
of potassium, being one of the most active of
tion and neutralizes the poison. Another letter
comes from a retired United States Army off,
Ger residing in San Diego, who desires that his
identity be concealed under the nom de plume
Subscriber" He states that Prince Paul, of
Wurtemburg. famous chemist In his day, dis
covered the following antidote tor snake poi
son: Iodide of potassium, four grains; corro-
mix. Keep in glass-stoppered vial. Take ten
drops Of this mixture diluted with one or two
tablespoonsful of wine or brandy. Dose to be
repeated If necessary.

PITTsBURG. MONDAY. AUG. is, 1890.
DALZELL ON QUAY,

An interview with the Hon. John Dalzell,
published in this paper, shows the Pitts
burg Congressman to possess more than the
average bitterness of the House Republicans
toward Senator Quay for his action on the
Federal election bill. Mr.. Dalzell has not
been noted for his love for Senator Quay for
some time past; but his previous negative
qusutity of affection is nowhere beside his
present and positive denunciation of the
junior Senator.
1t is hardly necessary to consider all Of
Congressman Dalzell's reasons for disap-
proving of the Senator's course. One feat
ure of his remarks, however, is so peculiar,
as to call for notice. He animadverts
on the idea which be perceives in Sens-
tor Qusy's last proposition that what
ever the Senate decides upon the
House has got to agree to.
There is, a somewhat higher principle in
volved in the disposition of legislation.
That is, that unless both the Senate and
House agree to given measure, it cannot
be passed.
Mr.. Dalzell's apparent claim that because
the House has passed the elections bill the
Senate has got to do the same thing is re-
markable view of constitutional legislation;
and the intimstion that Senator Quay will
find out his mistake is even more singular.
The Senate does not have to ask the consent
of the House to postpone legislation; and it
is somewhat difficult to perceive what Mr..
Dalzell means, unless he intends to convey
the threat that the House will kill the tariff
bill unless the Senate passes the Federal
election bill.
As to party interests, the fact is patent
to every one except the House leaders that
the course of those gentlemen has put the
Republican party in very unfavorable po-
sition. Senator Quay has the discretion to
try to get out of the dilemma. The House
policy seems to be to industriously make it
worse,

CURRENT TIMELY TOPICS.

SENATOR HoAR, according to his own aff-
davit is a mighty poor man. Perhaps he only
imagines himself poor when he looks through the
Senate Chamber and sees nothing but millionaires
on all sides of him.
THERE are drygoods firms in New York City
who pay clerks from SO 900 to $50, 100 year. For
fear all the clerks in this city will take the first
train for the metropolis it might be well to state
that these same firms have clerks who receive as
low as IS per week.
IT is authoritatively stated that Speaker
Reed has been compelled TO take reef in his sash.
Obstreperous Republicans are the cause OF the
shrinkage.
BY passing the anti-lottery bill the House of
Representatives has demonstrated the fact that
the dog wags the tail, and not that the tail wagged
the dog, as many people have been led to believe.

three large dogs, and at such times as there was
no meat in his slaughter house they would pen
the dogs in 1t. One morning after penning the
dogs In the slaughter house, HOucks hired man

WOLFE SPEAKS FOR HIMSELF.

The Republican organs have themselves
to thank for the Importance and signi6-
cahce of the letter of Hon. Charles s..
Wolfe, giving his reasons for supporting
Pattison, and of his speech at Lewisburg on
Wednesday, in which he made terribly
strong showing of the fact that Republican
supremacy in this State means the rule of
the corporations, while Governor Pattison
had the honesty and courage to stand by the
hoodwinked and oppressed farmer against
the chicanery and oppression of corporate
power" Ordinarily, the fact that a man
of such independence as Wolfe, would sup
port Pattison would be rather in the line of
what was to be expected than an indication
of much significance. But after Republic
an organs from one end of the State to the
other have elaborated the logic that Patti
son had no chance because Wolfe would not
support him, these outspoken and ringing
declarations from Wolfe himself are given
increased significance by the importance
which the Republican press attached to his
position. They have the more force be-
cause Mr.. Wolfe's utterances plainly show
that popular interests are represented BY
the Democratic candidate.

A RooRBACK ON RECIPROCITY.

1t is rather amusing, to say the least, to
learn from that Democratic authority, the
Washington correspondence of the New
York Star, that the probable result of
Blaine's reciprocity policy will be ''the loss
of the Pacific States and Territories to the
Republican party" While Mr.. Blaine was
supposed to be dissident from the Repub-
lican programme, the Democratic press was
overAowing with praise for his statesman
ship. But now that it is made part OF the
programme, Democratic organs are discover
ing how bad it is, aud threAten as a result
the less not only of the Pacific States, but
whatever Congressional and electoral votes
the Territories may control
The reason of this disastrous result of
