povbtml About Chicago.

We are getting nervous about that
worlds fair at Chicago. The present
heated term that town IL experiencing
docs not offer cheerful suggestion for
the fair and the trouble that Is found
In selecting site and the charges
made Of corruption in that selection
are IN additional dampener upon the
hope Of great and successful exPosi-
ton. We incline now to suggest to Con-
gress to take the fair In hand, pay its
whole cost and put 1t at Washington.
Surely the country's money would be
better expended In this way than
In being poured out for the pur-
poses to which 1t Is being 70
freely devoted that the whole surplus is
gone and deficiency is talked OF for
the coming year. Surely IL Is more
lust TO the whole country to spend Its
money in holding worlds fair than TO
give II to an army Of pension agents,
examining doctors, and so-called depen-
dent soldiers families and parents, with
the chief result of promoting paupcrism.
II seems that no fund Of money can be
put anywhere that there will not be rob
berry The worlds fair fund has started all
the nimble fingers at Chicago TO its ap-
propriation, and we are prompted by the
spectacle to wish to see the fair moved
away TO Washington, now that the
matter Of Its cost Is Of no account what
ever TO the people, and II seems that II
will be real benefit TO get an empty
treasury to promote public virtue.

Ii Makes Us Smile.

II is interesting to note the ambition
OF some journals TO settle the candidate
for governor of both parties. The Phila-
deiphia Times particularly engages our
smiles. Having saddled Delamater
upon the Republicans It now instructs
the Democratic convention as TO
bis fittest opponent 1t thinks
that the Republican nomination
particularly calls out Pattison and it
plays on this string along with the Rec
ord, although 1t Is not quite so eager to
misrepresent the situation. The Times
10 not Democratic journal, as the Rec.
ord claims to be, but has for its
particular function the duty of
settling things for both parties.
II u certainly an arduous duty; which
accounts for its not always being done
~ . nrst-class manner. The intention,
however, is doubtless good SO that We
may smile rather than bs angry.

Defending the Federal Election Bill.

With a sarcastic apology to the editor
Of the Philadelphia Press the Record
publishes letter addressed to that
gentleman and signed "Pig Iron" tits
explained that the communication was
intended for the Press and If the argu-
ment had been trifle less frank IT is
probable that 1t would have appeared in
that journal. "Pig Iron" undertakes the
defense Of Senator Quay and Speaker
Reed for their support of the federal cleo
tion bill and points out the benefits that
are sure to follow that measure.
The threatened disorders will awaken
the old spirit of fervid patriotism. IA
bloody massacre now and then during
close campaign would be worth thou
sands of doubtful votes" This is Il
trifle too blunt, but must be recognized
~ the true logical basis of bloody shirt
waving and the strongest motive for the
Introduction of measures deliberately
calculated to provoke disorder.
The apologist of Quay and Reed pauses
to reflect that although the negroes will
suffer most in such conflict the
blood Of the martyrs is the seed Of the
church, and that "after what the Re.
publican party has done for the race
few hundred Of them might well be sac
rificed in the good cause" He then
passes on to show what blessing 1t
would be to have plenty of disorder in
the South. The army rusting in
inglorious peace would have employ
ment, and profitable army contracts for
supplies would be plenty. The dan
gerous competition offered by the indus
trial development of the South would
be checked aud prosperity would again
return to Northern industries.
This burlesque defense of the Lodge
election bill has great deal of sober
truth in it. Selfish, sectional and mar.
row as the argument appears when thus
stated, 1t is not bit worse than the
spirit OF the INSCRIPTIONS schemers who
are trying to force the Lodge election
law on the country without the leas,
effort TO conceal their hope that II will
produce riot and bloodshed, and 80 re-
vive the strength Of party that ha. nc
other reason for existence than the Ions
dead issues of the war.

THE naval appropriation bill, signed by
the president, in chiefly remarkable for tho
provision for three battleships heavily
armored, but It also provides for a cruiser
of 800 tons, which is to be a very remark
able vessel. She is TO have three screws
driven by three separate engines, and Is
expected 10 attain speed Of more than
twenty-five knots an hour. The French
and Italians have tried three screws on a
number OF small vessels with satisfactory
results. II Is said Of the proposed cruiser
that under easy draft sho will be able to
make with three screws twenty -one knots
an hour for a week IL necessary, and could
give the City Of Paris twelve hours start

LANC ASTER, PA. July l, 1880.
The FEDERAL Election Law.

Tho warm protest Of Congressman
Ewart, of North Carolina, against the
pasags of the federal election bill,
which the Republican managers
not that consummate rascal, Johnny
i Davenport, to prepare for them,
comes AZ refreshingly to the coun-
try as distressingly to the Daven-
mort conspirators. The scheme IL undis-
auisedly one to secure TO federal officials
1he selection of federal congressman.
The theory upon which the Republi-
cans in Congress rejected q Democratic
congressman who had been elected by
1en thousand or more majority in dis.
trict in which the negroes are in large
majority, is to be carried out by federal
slection officers, and all negro constitu-
sncies, as we'll rs some white ones, are
70 be given Republican representatives,
whether they will or no.
Mr.. Ewart as q Southern Republican
does not like 1t. He says the negroes do
mot all vote the Republican ticket, and
he docs not think that results forced by
fsdsfal officials are desirable in DEM
/Ueratic country. Mr.. Ewart, In other
words, 10 neither knave nor fool which
can be said of comparatively few Re.
publican congressman.
Mr.. Coleman, also Southern Rcpub-
lican congressman, takes like position.
These men do not want the Republican
party In the South to depend exclu-
sively on the black population for its
material. They hope in the course of
time to gather in respectable white
constituency from the dissatisfied po-
1itical elements that always scatter of
from dominant party. They believe
that such measures as this federal elec-
tion bill will but serve to consolidate
the white population, just as flock
gathers together to the shepherd in
the fear of an enemy. The Repub.
lcan plan of facing Republican
|: South, which Thaddeus Stevens
started and which his successors In
Republican leadership In Congress have
since pursued, has had its logical result
in forcing white union in the South
and making 1t solidly Democratic
Stevens, after long life of unsuccessful
politics, was helped to success al its end
BY the disturbed state of the country that
offered fertile field to his violent folly
When he went out there was no hand
Z ready for the Republican helm like tc
5 Ms In recklsssness, and the country
1 gradually calmed down, and the South
has become one Of its most active sec
tions In the pursuits of peaceful indus
Z tsy. But now Reed, second Ste
vens, appears to resurrect his attempts
! 10 seixe the country for the Republican
4 party by force. As the attempt failed
before, 70 much the more will 1t fail now
1t is even silly In its undertaking. Tn,
sense Of the country is not going TO en-
dH1e the control by federal officers of tn,
election Of the states representatives IL
Congress neither Southern or Northern
communities will approve such fedora
domination. The Southern Republican
does not want this help that is Offered
him; and the Northern Republican, ,wht
has N idea above an oyster, is not likel,
10 be more enthusiastic over proposi
tion that state representatives shall b
chosen by United Sta'es agents.

THE census shows Columbia's popula-
ton to bo 1926, or an increase Of twenty
Ave per cent over 1880, aud Columbians
may feel happy. Lebanon's population is
stated by the census supervisor to bc Ia, ,725,
and II IL believed that including the
suburbs tho total will be about nineteen
thousand. Lebanon has certainly grown
rapidly, for the census of 1880 shows a
population Of only SITS in the six wards OF
the town. If Lancaster does not hustle q
little and show some interest in manufac-
turing enterprises \ score or so of years
may hnd other rival cities in the county.
We anxiously await the census figures of
our own town, and only venture TO remark
that Judging by the growing pains of street
paving and water department expenses for
ten years we must be pretty big city.
=
THE attention of the chief of police is
directed TO the proclamation OF the mayor
OF this city concerning the explosion of
guns and fireworks. Though the mayor
has gone to Scranton we do not
understand that the proclamation has
been withdrawn. Such an inference Is
however, justified by the cannonading that
has been going on during the night in some
quarters of the city. Let the proclamation
of the law be enforced.
Two Frenchmen gathering firewood In a
forest on the frontier crossed tho boundary
line into German territory, and were fired
upon by sentry TO whose challenge they
failed to give prompt reply. One of the
trespassers was wounded, and there will
be plenty of snarling and growing be-
tween French and Germans before the in
cident is forgotten. Tho whole Of that
frontier seems to bo picketed like a line of
battle, and considering this state of things
1t is little wonder that England is pleased
with her channel boundary and stubbornly
refuses to have II tunneled.

LADY Macdonald.

Lady Macdonald. wife of Sir John. Of
Canadian fame, is a remarkable woman.
The daughter of a West Indian merchant,
Miss Bernard left Jamaica as girl and
was educated in England. AT her father s
old home she met the distinguished bar
risrer. who was created a baronet the year
of his marriage with the young
All unused to responsibility and court ETH
uuette. Lady Macdonald accompanied her
husband TO the provinces, and by her wit,
kindliness and tact soon established her
self as the acknowledged head Of dominion
society.
Since her advent into Canadian circles
ner influence has been an unquestioned
force. She is a thorough politician, has an
extensive acquaintance in this country and
England, and by many is thought to be the
power behind the throne in the Macdonald
household.
Like all clever and polite women, she is
an accomplished hostess, and at the head
of her dinner table is reckoned formidable
enemy for the opposition to encounter.
Tall and stately, gray haired and digniied,
the charm of her fine presence is only ex-
celled by her consummate art in converse
ton. 1t is highly dangerous for enemies
of Sir Johns policy to come too near his
fascinating wife More than once Rad

ferent complexion altogether after a talk
