WHAT THEY THINK.

NEW YORK, June ll.-Editorial ex-
pressions Of opinion taken from the pa
pers all over the country show that the
Republican journals are all in line for
Harrison. Those which support Blaine
generally still hold to their belief that
the Name statesman was the strongest
man before the convention but believe
that Harrison will be reelected.
There is a good deal of difference of
opinion among Democratic papers as
to the nomination. The New York
Herald declares that lhe Democrats
must put away both Cleveland and
Hill to defeat Harrison. The New
York Times says the Democrats atleast
have the satisfaction of opposing
man whom they respect. The New
York State Zeitung believes the con-
ventlon might have made worse
choice. The Boston Globe thinks
Harrison will be easy to beat while the
Post thinks he is the logical Republi-
can candidate. The Philadelphia
Times thinks Harrison is a strong can
didate and warns the Democrats that
their work is cut out for them.
The st. Louis Republic declares that
the campaign will be very bitter, but
makes no prediction as to the result.
The New Orleans papers think Har-
rison is harder to beat than Blaine.
The Louisville Courier Journal says
Harlrsonls beyond question the strong
est candidate the Republicans could
have nominated and adds that Ried is
an added factor of strength to the ticket.
Altogether the Democratic papers,
with few exceptions, seem disposed to
concede considerable strength to the
Minneapolis ticket, but without excep.
ton declare it can be beaten in No.
vemberswith proper nominees.-Ar-
aus Leader.

The Aberdeen Neaos correctly states
the question in the following:
If the Democrats and Independents
of South Dakota desires fusion the Re-
publicans will lend them all the assist
ance at their command. A fusion this
year would SO completely demoralize
the Independent party in this state
that it's leaders for revenue only, would
be staggered to death-pol;tlcally.

Reed on HIN.
e Chicago Inter Ocean.

From the Chicago Inter Ocean
Never was happier answer made to
one Of those glittering generalities that
small men. who seek to pose as states
men. deal in so literally, than by Mr..
Reed to Mr.. D. B. Hills repetition Of the
stale assertion that though other parties
have iourished and decayed "the Demo
cratic party is for ever and ever
ALI things that are noble and useful
change into higher forms Of nobility and
usefulness. But @the poor ye have al
ways with you" it is pity that We have
but we have them. Ignorance never
changes. nor does dirt, it is the same to-
dav that II was when Cicero thundered
in the senate. and when not one Roman
in g hundred could understand his ma
iestic language, the same as when Com
modus fed his horse with gold-eovered
oats out of manger Of alabaster, while
his subjects ate black crusts and slept
on lousy skins All things change, ex-
cept the worst Of things.
Mr.. Reed, however, wisely avoided the
indignant tone in his reply to Mr.. Hill.
There are people upon whom indigna-
ton is wasted; they are so constituted
that II does not hurt them; they can
not even understand what it means
But people of this kipd are peculiarly
sensitive to ridicule. So Mr.. Reed spoke
ssrcastically. 9Th ere never was a time, "
he truthfully reminded his hearers, when
the Democratic party was not shouting
For Gods sake, let US get back to yes
terday. We would like to 60 back l,sOO
wears. but We can't do that-we know
We cant; but let Us repeal something ;
let Us undo something that it has taken
years of toll to do; let US make the world
a little less civilized than it was"
This is sarcasm. But it is truthful sar-
casm. Can any one, any Democrat
name one new thing that the Democratic
party has promised to DO since 1860?
From 1860 to 1865 it contented itself
with predicting failure to the Union
cause. and to placing distinctions in it
way. From 1865 to 1880 it sought tC
gain power by promising to repeal al
the reconstruction acts. BY 1880 it had
learned that the benefits flowing from
these acts were so many and so gres
that the people would not permit one o
them to be repealed In 1884 it began Z
promise to repeal all protective tariffs
And in 1892 it is hesitating between
promise to repeal the tariff laws and
promise TO destroy the value Of the cul
rency. But to-day it has not a singl
, promise of progress in any direction t
offer. 1t points out nothing that need
doing, and makes no promise to do j
1t is to-day as yesterday ''the same" pa
/ ty Of repeal, Of retrogression, Of retard
: ment.

The Baker Ballot Law.

PHILADELPHIA, March 1.-THE Pennsyl-
vania prohibitiOnists have lost their case in
the lower courts. They attacked the consti-
tutionality of the Baker ballot law in the
Philadelphia courts TO test it. As result
the common pleas court No. ? this afternoon
refused 10 grant the injunction asked for
against city officers 10 restrain them from
carrying into effect the new ballot law.
This decision was given without un accom-
panying opinion. The prohibition leaders
will, however, appeal to the supreme court,
Their contention is that the law makes dis
ordinations in favor of the strong political
parties, and that it prohibits the prohi i
iionists from having the names of their eau
didates printed upon the official ballots, be
the prohibition candidates in the last elec
ton fell below the three per cent. of the ag
gregste Number of votes cast.

From the Pittsburgh Commercial Gazette.
The salaried preyaricators Of the Philadel-
phia PSAs are hard at work aiding and abet-

Russia on Wednesday morning had sever

labOriOus effort was made to convince
the public that Senator Quay really delayed
the tariff bill and wss opposed 10 its pass

columns Of the same paper in way TO in

the Press have apparently forgotten that on
November 3, 1890. when things were differ

Threw a LampIat HIS wife.

ALTOONA, March l5.-T. second murder
xhich has taken place in this city within
the last few months occurred at an early
hour this morning. Shortly after O'Clock
two police officers noticed a woman some
distance up the street, whose clothing was
burned from head to foot. When they
reached her both drew of their heavy over
coats and by wrapping them around her f.
nally succeeded In extinguishing the flames,
not, however, before they had both been
burned severely about the hands and wrists.
The officers summoned the ambulance
and had the woman removed 70 the hospi-
.al. Physicians there were unable 10 find a
place on her body which had not been burn
ed, and ascertaining that she bad Inhaled
the flames, announced that she could not
possibly recover. At first she refused TO tell
how her clothing had become ignited, but
finally said that during quarrel her hus-
band, Frank Jeyille, French Italian, had
thrown lighted lamp on her. She soon
began to sink, and died in horrible agony at
9 O'Clock. Jeville has not yet been captured.
The place where the fight occurred has a
very bad reputation.

They were Both MarrIed.

GREESsBURG, Pa, March I6.-A marriage
license was issued in Pittsburgh. Monday.
TO W. A. Hamilton of Apollo and Anna
Laura Davis, Of Salina. Both are already
married, Hamilton having wife living near
belmont, eight miles from here, and the
woman being the wife OF Joseph Walker,
an enyloye Of the Baltimore & Ohio rail-
aOad, who IS absent from home most of the
time. Ms. Walker keeps boarding house
at Salina, and Hamilton was one Of the
hoarders. On Monday Laura went TO Pitts
burgh, and in the evening, accompanied by
Hamilton, returned home, but nothing was
thought of this until Tuesday morning.
when the Pittsburgh papers came out with
the license. 10 the evening the people gath
cred give the couple an old fashioned ser
enade, but when about to proceed were met
at the door by Constable Mufiiy and Joseph
Wal 1er, the wOman's husband, who inform
ed them that the serenade was unnecessary,

years ago. Cries Of Lynch him - Tar and

WAsHIssroS, d. c, March 2O.-senator
Quay kept to his house to-day, bright as ii
was, except for short walk in the sun,
which did not extend as far as Postmaster

low.
Although it was Sunday, he had callers,
including several of his friends in the Penn
sylvania delegation in the House. who called
to congratulate him upon his success in
Blair county, knowing that he is more inter
ested in the Senatorial campaign than in the
Presidential. He is quite confident ofsuc.

Americans shows no sign of abatement.

the Indiana is lying at anchor for the pur-

steamers were decorated with flags and
