HARRISBURG. Nov 15--Tho dethronement OF
United States Senator Matthew Stanley Quay
has been decreed ty the Democratic party OF
Pennsylvania. by the Lincoln Independent
Republicans and by considerable section OF
the stalwart Republicans OF the Keystone
State. Whether or not these three political
elements. operating together adversely to
quay. Will secure his overthrow. cannot now be
foretold. bat 1t can be said with accuracy that
Pennsylvania Is to Witness the most carefully
planned and the most unrelentinG battle ever
waged against q candidate within tho confines
OF our commonwealth.
The only candidates to be nominated in
State Convention next year are two Congress-
mon at large and possibly Justice OF the
supreme Court. owing to the falling health OF
one OF our Judges OF that court
For tho first time In very many years the
Democratic State Convention will be called in
advance Of the Republican Convention. and for
the first time In the history OF Pennsylvania
politics candidate for United States Senator
will be named In convention. That candidate
may bo Gov. Pattison: II not Pattison 1t will be
Senator Wallace II Wallace should be the
standard bearer. as is probable. Eckley B.
Coke OF Luzerno and Tom Marshall or William
A. Weihe OF Pittsburgh will most likely be the
candidates for Congressman at large. with
either Judge Arnold or Judge Gordon OF Phila-
dephia as the candidate for Supreme Court
Justice in the event Of q vacancy.
With tho Democratic candidate for Senator
thus publicly and officially announced. the Re-
publicans would be placed at great disad-
vantage in al close or debatable districts un-

so when the time comes. It seems to us
that he is hardly OF sufficient Importance to

late yesterday evening. and was only driven
of after n stubborn resistance on tho part OF
the Mexican garrison. In the conflict one
Mexican officer was killed and another
wounded. The loss on GarZa's side Is not

negroes do the work OF farming for him;
but for that very reason his profits may be
smaller. the moro especially as 20 large
q part Of the plantations arc now
heavily mortgaged at high rate
Of interest, and their owners arc
likely to be loaded down further with liens
| on stock, implements. and crops. The prices
OF cotton also are low. and 1t is hard to make
any ymoney. even II the interest on debts can
be paid and enough saved for q bare main
tenance. The case OF the young man whose
letter we are considering is typical at this
time, and his desire or determination to
change his situation is probably typical
ALSO The same discomfort with farming
which has been exhibited at the North ap-
pears at the South, and we cannot say that
II Is unreasonable.
Hence we start out with no disposition to
blame him for his decision. It is natural
and 1t Is inevitable. OF course. he wants to
better himself. and 1t is true that his pros
poets on the North Carolina farm are not
cheering. Under ordinary circumstances
he cannot expect to do better there than
scrape together bare living. But the
chances are that he will not do better any
where else, for that is nll that the great
majority Of men are able to do in the towns.
II he goes to the business college and learns
telegraphy, stenography. typewriting. and
bookkeeping. he will find that none OF
them nor oil OF them will OF themselves
enable him to earn more than enough
to support himself The pay even for
superior experts in those arts Is
not large. and proportionately to
the EXPENSES OF living where he could
exercise them 1t is not greater than the re-
turns of his present farming employment
They might introduce him TO occupations
more profitable but. carried on by them
selves. thcy do not hold out much prospect
oi his improving his pccuniary condition.
Perhaps. however. he would have better
chances to exercise his general abilities in
largo town than In the solitude OF planta-
tion. Even II he got no moro money, he
might get more satisfaction out OF life.
This IL ell the advice we can give the
young man. He must take his chances and
he must understand that they arc against
his winning any brilliant victory In "the
battle with this great world" He has one
great advantage on his side. and it Is his
youth which is the time for adventure. II
he Is driven back, he will have the vitality
to go ahead again. and he will have time
enough for repeated trials. But don't let
him set out with a cut.and-tried plan as to
what he shall do. Let him rather start
with the determination to seize and i'm
prove opportunities as they arise. even II
they are not as he would have made them.
The roads to both success and failure are
iunumcrable

AGAINST KING.
Decision in the Famous Seventh Day
Adventist Case.

MEMPHIS, Aug. 1.-[SPecial. !
Judge Hammond filed to-day his
opinion in the case of r. M. King,
the Seventh Day Adventist, who was
convicted of committing a common
law nuisance by repeatedly blowing
in his fields on Sunday. He had pre-
viously been convicted under the code
section 22S9, and fined by the Justice
of the Pace the sum of So, affixed by
that section as penalty for working
on Sunday. This small fine he paIu
but continued his work.
1t was shown that it was done i'll
his own fields and not near any place
of worship or in such a way as to dis
| turb those at church. But his neigl-
bors, who believe in Sunday ObseI =
vance, deter mined to stop his prac-
| tice and had him indicted for com
hitting nuisance at the common
| law, and independently of the statute.
| He was convicted and fined $75, and
appealed to the Supreme Court,
where, after a great struggle, the
| Judgement of conviction was affirmed
| and King was imprisoned.
1t was made test case by she
Seventh Day Adventists of the
United States and has become famous
as such. They employed the Hon.
Don M. Dickinson of Detroit, to take
the case to the Federal Courts, and
test the legality of the conviction un-
der the Constitution OF the United
States, He sued out a writ OF habeas
corpus before Judge Hammond and
the decision just rendered supports
the State courts aud remands King to
the Jail of Obion County for the exc
cutiOn of the sentence. But he Will
Immediately take An appeal to the Su-
nf tho VTnifnd SfatQa
which meets on the first Monday in
October next, and meantime will re-
main on bail.
The contest in the Supreme Court
will be made memorable, as all OF the
advocates OF the seventh day Of the
week have made this case one to test
the law and to deprive the Sunday
advocates OF their advantage on the
ground of religious freedom.
King resides In ObiOn County and
Is a very earnest believer In his sect,
and is backed up by the whole church
everywhere in this struggle for liberty
of conscience as he and they believe.
Judge Hammond says that while
| he is not authorized to say that Judge
Jackson cOncurs :: in his opinion,
which he has not seen, he does concur
| in the result and the ground OF the
decision, which is precisely the same
a. that OF the LarOn caJes, which the
two Judges decided on Friday. They
held in both these cases that the
State courts are the interpreters
of the state laws and the Federal
courts will only interfere to protect
the Federal rights:Of equality, regu-
lArity and the other fundamental
principles Of government which have
| been established as the law Of the
| land by the fourteenth amendment OF
the Constitution Of the United States.

DO CInthes Make a Boy?

"DO clothes make a bOy?" No
clothes make clothes. What are
clothes? They are an expression of
character. A boy who respects him.
self will dress a. decently as he can
simply and cleanly, says Hezekiah
ButterwOrth, in The Ladies' Home
Journal for August. A boy who re-
spects the worth OF life will not dress
CONSEQUENTLY even il he have the
means. He is best dressed whose APP
pearance eXcites no special attention,
and causes no critical remarks. Con-
spicuous dress goes with light head,
and very indefinite purpose in life.
Dress does not make the boy, but
1t often exhibits him; theatrical dress
in society Is in bad taste; but every
one owes il to others to look as well
as he can. Neglected dress shows a
want of self respect, and q lack OF
self-respect arises as a rule from a
sense of cheaPness OF character. 1t is
often impossible for a poor boy tO
dress as well az he would wish. But
he can always express his well
character by making his clothes neat
and tasteful.
