The Columbian. [volume] (Bloomsburg, Pa.) 1866-1910, 1891-08-28

Senator Carlisle is here looking
splendidly after his long rest. He says
that all the newspaper interviews with
him concerning democratic candidates
next year which have from time tc
time appeared this Summer have beer
entirely false, as he has expressed
no opinions on the subject.
Senator Chandler, chairman of the
Senate committee on migration, has
fired the first gun in what may be a
very serious fight in Congress by writ
ing letter to the Secretary of the
Treasury setting forth his views as to
the legality Of that officials action in
accepting bonds, insuring that they
should not become a public charge,
and permitting the landing of any pro
hibited class (the Russian Jews recen-
tly permitted to land, upon the jews
in this country giving bond to the
Treasury department that they should
not become charge upon the public,
are the targets aimed at)
Mr.. Chandler says that Congress
never intended when the prohibitory
laws were enacted to authorize any
such system, and it is fair to assume
that he proposes that the matter shall
be brought to the attention of Con-
gress. Treasury officials say that wri =
ten opinions have been furnished that
department by Attorney General Carl
and under the Cleveland administration
and by Attorney-Genera Miller under
the present administration to the effect
that such bonds may be taken in the
discretion Of the Secretary OF the
Treasury.
The cattle on the Cherokee strip
may be the cause of quite an admins
tration row when Mr.. Harrison comes
back. 1t is said that the proposed
scheme to have them remain there by
transferring temporarily the titles to
them to individual Indians was first
suggested to the cattle barons by
prominent official of the Interior de-
partment and now Assistant Secretary
Chandler, Of the same department,
says that the ruse is entirely too thin,
and that it will not be allowed. Well,
we shall see who will win. 1t may be
SANDER, but has been said over and
over again, that these cattle :men
would not be put off the strip, because
they had good friend who was very
near, in more than one respect to Mr..
Harrison, who would put them "onto"
some way to stay.
When the Weather Bureau passes
under the control of the Agricultural
department the statement was made
that Francis E. Nipher, of St Louis,
would have been placed in charge Of
it had he not declined to state his pol
itics. This was vehemently denied at
the time by Secretary Rusk, but it
was nevertheless true. Professor Niph-
er, who is now here in attendance up
on the meetings of the American AS
sociation for the advancement of Sci
ence says that after six months persua-
sion he had agreed to accept the pos
ition, but when he received a telegram
from a member Of the cabinet signed
officially, and reading: "What are your
politics? Answer by telegraph" he
concluded that he did not care for the
position and wired as follows: "Reply.
ing your telegram as requested, / re-
specttully state that am not poll.
tician and 60 not intend to engage in
politics.

FRIDAY, AUGUST rs, 1891.

"A constitutional convention will
cost the x-payers of the state nearly
if not quite a half million dollars.
Such portions Of the present constitu-
ton as need to be changed, can be so
altered by amendments that will not
cost one-tenth of that amount.
The Columbian. [volume] (Bloomsburg, Pa.) 1866-1910, 1891-08-28

Ballot reform is demanded by the
people. The marked ballot ought to
go. But it is not necessary to hold a
constitutional convention at an ex-
pense of 100000, to get rid of it.
The constitution can be amended at
comparatively small expense.

roSDSEss FOR THE FARMER.
We pledge ourselves to renewed efforts I'm the
same direction to the end that our revenue laws
may be revised as to treat with equality all the
various industries OF the commonwealth, thus
relieving the land of the farmers from the un-
fai" discrimination to which it has hereto
fore been subjected.
n. We denounce the unscrupulous partisan
ship Of Governor Pattlson In vetolng all the APP
portioDment bills passed, in compliance with
constitutional direction, by the late Republican
Legislature. and in negativing other legislation,
particularly the compulsory education bill,
having in view the material and moral interests
OF the people OF Pennsylvania.
IL. We commend the Republican mayor, city
solicitor, county controller and district attor-
ney Of Philadelphia for their discovery and
prompt prosecution OF those guilty n otficial
malfeasance. Dishonesty is non-mrtisan.
Republican party has always shown itself ready
to punish official dishonesty wherever found,
and we urge the before mentioned ofiitrrs to
prosecute to conviction any and every guilty
official without regard to his politics.
H. We are In favor OF the prompt repeal by
tine legislature OF all the mercantile taxes sev-
WED by the state. and Of such amendments to
the revenue and other laws as will effect uaiiy
promote the orderly receipt, the lawful and
safe custody, and the prompt and proper srfs-
bursement, not only OF the moneys Of the cvua-
monwealth, but of all IT'S cities, boroughs and
Townships and the law should be so improved
as to absolutely prevent the use OF public funds,
slnan or great. for the pei sonal benent OF pub
lie oflicials.
~. That we reafflrm the unswe ng devc-
ton OF Pennsylvania Republicans to the SUI
preme and sovereign right OF every lawful eiti- |
zen- ric1 or poo. native or foreign born, black
or white to cast one free ballot in public eAec-
ions and to have that ballot counted as cast,
aml we demand effective legislation within
constitutional limits to Secuie the nteg. ty and
purity OF federal elections throughout the
tr'on.
