Nobody expected the Republican State
Committee to illuminate the political sky
with fireworks at its meeting yesterday, ana
nobody will be disappointed, therefore, at
what that august body did. 1t is the fate
o? machinery to move only as the motive
power shall direct. The wheels buzzed
awhile yesterday and the State Committee
ground out vote of thanks to Chairman
Andrews, vote of confidence in Senator
QUAY, with special and somewhat specious
reference to the newspaper charges against
the Beaver statesman, and decided to hold
the convention on June %. Every item
was on the programme before the committee
met. If any committeeman had bomb
about his person he let no one know it.
The campaign will proceed unchanged by
the meeting of the party leaders in Phila-
delphia. Mr.. Delamater does not lose by
the setting of the date for the convention as
early as possible, and the other candidates
do not gain. Practically, however, aside
from the official approval OF Mr.. Andrews
management of the party affairs. nothing
having material effect upon any candidates
chances was done. 1t has been alleged that
Chairman Andrews had bestirred himself
too attentively in behalf of Mr.. Delamater
for the party's good. The committees
action yesterday aequits him of this charge,
as far as the committee can acquit him.
There is still plenty of time for great deal
of fun before the convention meets.

A PATTIS0N ENTHUSIAST.
One Democrat Who Can See Victory Only
With the Ex-Governor.

w. B. Clendenin, of New Castle, passed
through the city last evening on his way East.
Though young man, Mr.. Clendenin has been
prominent In politics for number of years.
His father was the Democratic nominee for
Congress in his district in 1878, and the son has
been several times Chairman of the Democratic
Committee of Lawrence county. he is an en-
thusiastic Pattison man.
"The four years Of Pattison and of Cleve-
land have put the Democracy on higher
plane" be said. I'VE cannot win by mere
machinery or upon stale issues. In the matter
of organization and the detail work of getting
out the party vote, the Republicans have moth
ing to learn from us. The administrations Of
Cleveland and Pattison are our SAMPLES Of
pudiate them we confess ourselves incapable OF
administering good government, and insult the
independent Republicans who assisted us to
place them in power. 1t is useless to
talk of nominating man tor Gov
ernor because he is "a good orga-
nlzer.' The only organizer who can organize
victory for the Democratic party In Pennsylva-
MIA is the hope of Democratic success That is
what brought out the vote for Pattison in 1882,
and which would bring it out again this year.
The Republican nominee will be Deamater,
the candidate of the machine and the Standard
Oil Company. If we put up against him an
other man Of the machine and the corporations
the people who are interested in good govern
ment will stay at home. If we nominate Patti

four years of him, and they know they can

FRANCES AMIABLE DECEIvER.

France is never happy unless somebody
IS deceiving her. She is not particular about
who the deceiver may be, or what the decep-
tion, so long as both are flattering to her
vanity. The secret of General Boulanger's
popularity lay in his ability to hoodwink
the people. He posed as the great military
redeemer of France, and for a long while the
Parisisns and great many of the more
sensible Frenchmen in sabots took him at
his own valuation. They idolized him, his
whiskers, his black horse, and his cheap
bombast about "La Patrie" and the
provinces to be reconquered from the Teuton.
The French people did not discover Bou-
LANCER was humbug until his opponents in
the high places of the Government had
forced his hand and put him to fight.
Now President Carnot has taken a leaf
from Boulanger's guide to popularity. He
is making a triumphal tour of France, in
the course of which as opportunity occurs
he caters to Bonapartists, Legitimists, red
Radicals and every partisan in turn. His
visit on Tuesday to the house in
which the great Napoleon was born,
at Ajaccio, is described as an in
tensely theatrical affair, wherein the Wis
itor Wed with his entertainers in magnifying
the importance of the occasion, and its
effect as a shrewd political move may be
accurately estimated by any one acquainted
with the volatility of the French provincial
character.
But in this case the end almost justifes the
means. President Carnot aims to solidify
the Republic, and he chooses the best, nay,
the only sure way to reach the hearts Of
most of his fellow countrymen.

A nosE FOR THE SENATE.

The medicine which DR.. Reed has pre-
scribed with such efficacy in the House of
Representatives is to be tried on the tougher
constitutions in the Senate. Senator Chand-
Ter is the medical adviser for the Republi-
can party in the Senate, but the remedy he
suggests for the probable Democratic disease
of obstructive opposition to tariff and other
Republican legislation is the one which
Speaker Reed has rendered famous. As
THE DISPATCH has pointed out there is
now considerable danger of the tariff bill
failing to pass the Senate before the summer
adjournment. This is due to the dilatori-
ness of the Republicans in great measure;
had they moved less tardIly the Demo-
cratic party in the Senate would
not have such command of the
situation as they have to-day
Whether Senator Chandler's motion will
save his party remains to be seen. He pro-
poses that the Senate should put limit
upon the debate of any measure, and adopt
the House rules as TO the counting of a
quorum. This is a strategic move to head off
the Democratic column of long-winded talk
ers whose assault upon the tariff bill might
be fatal TO it. Senator Chandler's motion
was referred to the Committee on Rules.
The doubtful element in the case is the at
titude of the more conservative of the Re-
publican Senators. Mr.. Chandler preferred
for some reason to introduce the motion with
out previous reference of the matter to a
party caucus. Perhaps he knew there would
' be strong opposition to it in the dark,
whereas in the light of publicity very few
Republican Senators will care to show their
hostility to what may seem to them an inter-
ference with the privileges of the Senate.
The situation is Interesting. If mere factious
obstruction can be stopped by Senator
Chandler's rules we hope they will pass.
The country is more vitality concerned in
legislation than in the maneuvers of party
facticians

THE GRIPS SUCCESSOR.

The visit of La Grippe to this country is
not likely to be soon forgotten, but in some
parts of Europe, notably in Southern
Russia, new epidemic called La Mona is
eclipsing the record of the influenza, of
which it is said to be sequel. 1t is very
unpleasant to hear that the grip has sequel
of so dangerous a character, for La Mona is
fatal in a great many cases. But it is
hardly surprising either that the ill-fed
peasantry of Europe, among whom
the influenza epidemic played such
havoc, should be the first to fall
victims to this new disease. DR..
Irving Rose, of New York, says
that La Mona has many points similar to
pellagra, an affection in which the brain
and nervous systems are implicated to such
an extent as to cause pains In the back and
limbs, girdle sensation, suicidal impulse,
and even dementis when the disease is COM
plete. In the new complaints sort of trance
or sleep is said to follow an anaemic condi-
tion of the brain, resembling the state of
hynotis known among African negroes as
nelayan.
From the reports of European authorities
il would seem that there is little likelihood
of La Mona crossing the ocean. The condi-
tions under which the new epidemic has had
its birth and has spread in Europe are not
to be found in this country to any consider
able extent. 1t is well known, however,
that the infiuen "a has lett plenty of re-
minders of its attacks here in weakened
constitutions, and those who suffered from
the grip last winter will do well to guard
their health for sometime to come.

Judged by their attire and especially by
their selection of the "stove-pipe" hat, the
aborigines of the Congo forests should be

What makes the halter so fond of this
ancient atTocity? We have grave suspi-
cions that the cause lies in the vulnerability
and sensitive cuticle of the silk tile. A silk
hat is easier ruined than a vagrant cur's
reputation. A shower of rain materially
damages it; it cannot be sat upon with I'M

wind; small boys have always hated it, and
cats love its smooth recesses. If man takes
too much of anything-say cold tea-it al
ways flies to his high hat, setting it askew,
or jamming it down over his eyes, and in
variably getting dinted in suspicious and
suggestive manner upon the smallest provo

lnation. If it is not the origin of all evil at

querulous interrogation about ones halter

ESPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DIsPAToHl
COLUMBUS, April 23.-The Legislature re-
fused to agree upon a resolution to adjourn on
Saturday, and it is now thought they may re-
main in session another week or more in the
hope of securing more ripper legislation. The
Toledo reorganization bill was again defeated,
as also the bill for the reorganization Of the
Railroad Commissioners and creating a COM
mission of three members. Senator Brice is ex-
pected here tonight to urge the passage of the
bill tomorrow. He is specially interested, as
it is understoo I'D he has been delegated the Sc
lection of the members of the commission,
which will likely consist of ]. H. Stewart, of
Ashtabula; ]. A. Norton, of Tiffn, and w. E.
Boden, of Guernsey county.
The most important bills which became laws
to-day was one providing for farmers instl-
tutes in the several counties of the State, each
of which is to receive from $500 to $500 to de-
fray the expenses of an institute each winter.
Any one county cannot organize more than
three societies to receive the benefits of the
law. A bill became law, which requires the
officers and stewards of all State and county,
penal benevolent, charitable and retormatory
institutions to purchase native live stock for
food consumption in the institutions. Native
live stock is defined to be that which has been
in the State 100 days before being killed. The
law is aimed at Armour and the big beef con-
Germs OF the country.

UNsATIsFACT0RY SPIRITS.

The spirits-we mean those dealt in with
out license bv peculiar beings called medi-
ums-have been behaving most ungallantly
to Chicago woman. Mrs. Sarah E. Brom-
we'll is the aggrieved female. She is Spir-
itualist, and lawyer named Husseagh sued
her for 81 900 for legal services. She sub
mitted counter claim of $1,000 for advice
of spiritual kind and seances furnished the
lawyer. In addition she claimed that she
had supplied Mr.. Husseagh with medicine
for his scalp and liver. She also asserted
that through spiritual aid she introduced
the lawyer to his present wife. But the jury
decided that the lawyer had the best claim and
gave him $3.50 damages. Mrs. Bromwell was
dumfounded when she heard the verdict
and insisted that the spirits had made mis-
take about the Court in which her case was
being tried.
1t is charitable in Mrs. Bromwell to make
excuses for the spirits but we fear that they
were only I'D to their usual tricks. They
can appear in darkened rooms filled with
simpletons at dollar or more head; they
are willing enough to upset tables,
rap on walls, shake tambour-
ines in cabinets, and answer with
cautious vagueness questions about departed
souls. But who ever heard of the spirits
doing any person any practical good? They
are never to be had when most wanted
When they might explain an earthly mys-
terry they maintain strict silence. In TACT
there is more virtue in bottle of spirits
than in cabinet of them. And Mrs.
Bromwell is not The first person to find
this out.

OUR MAIL POUCH.
The Dangers of Rnilronding q.

To the Editor of The Dispatch:
I take the liberty to reply to an article in
THE DISPATCH of the 10Th inst, on Too
Many Railroad Employees" Having had a
small experience in railroading. I will say there
is no class of men so poorly paid for their
labor and the risk they run as the
trainmen; first, engineer, then fireman,
then baggage master, expressman, brakeman,
fagman, conductor, in succession. The train
moves. Not a man, from first to last, knows
whether he will ever reach the next station
alive He must suffer heat and cold at small
pittance, for the risk OF life or M limb . on ne each
year for their services, with no risk
to run in going from home to office.
Young men spend the prime OF life IN hitting
themselves for railroading in anticipation OF
promotion and future reward, thereby unfit
ting themselves for other pursuits in life, and,
while true and faithful to his employer. yet,
with sympathy for his fellow-man, may pay
few cents out of his own pocket to some poor
traveller to help him on his way. A spy on the
road reports the conductor. while he has been
a faithful officer and friend of the company
This is but little encouragement for young
man to leave his home and run the risk of his
life in the interest of others with possible re-
ward for himself. Through a misfortune he
finds himself discharged and unqualified for
other business.
am reminded that years ago Western roads
discharged all conductors. One old conductor
called upon the company and said: Gentle
men, you have made e grand mistake. You
ask us to step on our train with blacked boots,
white shirts, clean collars and cuffs-every day
clean suits TO be paid for by order of the COM
pany. We cannot, at this salary, pay for all
this and live and keep a wife and little ones.
We now have stolen enough to live on without
this. Now you turn us of and employ new
men. who must do just what we have done. or
they starve and have nothing in old age" They
called him in and reinstated him.
have personally known many grand, noble
men discharged as conductors who faithfully
did their duty. although stool pigeon once in
100 times might see a few pennies lost to the
company.
Show me a man that has no sympathetic
heart, and will show you one unworthy the
respect of a decent dog.
Merchants, clerks bankers and many others
run but little risk in their line of business and
get much better wages. The worst feature of
this case seem to be that men are employed for
full time and paid for half. d.
