to spend large proportion of the
year 80 IN Chicago, and is irving ,o

country and America to preach tbs
Gospel in English and other Languages
and also to give instructions in tbe
Institute, in addition to the REGULAR
corps Of teachers.
Those who enter the school !,
October, or as soon after that aS
possible, will have the best oppor
tunities in the work. In acceptinc
applicants, preference will, of course
be given to those expecting to slav
throughout the year. None are adj.

1t seems likely that more rooms

Special attention will be paid to
the work of the Musical Depart.

Some one has said that a
bargain is an article sold un-
der its real value. Some ad-
vertisers are not believers in
this theory or are as econo-
mical Of the truth as they are
with their bargains.
But "an honest tale speeds
best being plainly told"
This is our purpose in offer
ing Wall paper bargains.
They are bargains because
they are as we represent them,
full length, full weight, bona
fide goods.
We know one instance OF a
bargain in wall paper which
after it was on the walls lead
pencil marks showed through.
Whose was the bargain?

They Don't Like Honest Voting.

Already in Vermont, Republicans
are suggesting that the secret ballot
law must be repealed
Queer, isn't it, that Republicans lose
and Democrats gain wherever the laws
permit voting without the corruption
of bribers and the prying interference
of employers and bosses.
The Republican explanation as that
their voters stay away from the polls
rather than exhibit their incapacily to
master the difficulties of the process of
marking ballots.
This is hardly consistent with their
Boosting that their party comprises all
the intelligence and the Democratic
party all the ignorance Of the land.
But it is much easier for them to be
Inconsistent than to acknowledge the
simple and significant truth World

The COLUMBIAN is foremost with
other leading democratic journals of
the state in advocating that election
booths should be set up in as many
election districts as possible, and mock
elections be held in order to acquaint
the electors with the new system Of
voting. The democratic State Com
mittee gives its hearty approval of this
work and offers to furnish specimen
ballots to all who may apply stating
that they have organized a club for the
purpose of nstructing the democratic
voter. We are glad to see other pa
pers following our suggestion in urging
upon the voters to establish voting
schools. As announced two weeks
ago The COLUMBIAN is ready to lend
assistance in any manner that will aid
the voter in becoming familiar with
the new ballot law. We would like
to see every democratic vote polled in
the county and that means 5000 ma
jority for Cleveland and Stevenson.

SOUTH WANTS FAIR TREATMENT.
CLEVELAND FULLY RECOGNIZED THE
SOUTHERN STATES.

Senator John G.. Carlisle, of Ken
lucky, and Colonel John X. Fellows
had a most animated talk at the ma.
tional Democratic headquarters about
the way things were going in New
York. Colonel Fellows said he was
satisfied with the outlook. Sena-
tor Carlisle, who had just returned
from trip along the New England
coast, which ended with a visit to ex-
President Cleveland, in speaking OF
the situation said:
81 regard the Democratic situation
as very satisfactory in every part of
the country where we can have reas-
enable hope to make successful con-
test. There is no danger in the South,
in my opinion. No considerable part
Of the Democrats in any Southern
state will allow themselves to be sold
for the benefit OF the Republican par
ty, and as the day of election approa-
ches most of those who have been Sc.
duced into the so-called peoples party
by the delusive promise of direct gov
ernment aid in their private affairs will
rejoin their old political associates.
They will not throw their votes away
in a great national contest like this
and thereby promote the success Of a
party which has shown by its past leg
islation and by the recent utterances
OF its most conspicuous representatives
that it has but little if any respect tor
the political rights or material inter-
ests of the people in that part Of the
country.
''All the South desires or needs is
fair treatment by the federal govern
ment the same treatment that is ac-
corded to the other states and people
and this it had for the first time
since the war under the administra-
tion of Mr. Cleveland. He was the
first and only president since the war
who fully recognized the Southern
states as equal members of the Union
and he was the FIRST and only one who
ignored all sectional lines and preju-
dices in appointments to Office and in
:he general policy Of the administra-
ton. This was worth more to the
South and to the whole country, in
fact, than all the special and class leg
islation that could be passed by con-
gress in a century, and the intelligent
people everywhere know it.
''In New York, New Jersey, Con-
nectiCut and Indiana we are, think,
in much better condition than in
1888, while Massachusetts, which was
then one Of the most reliable Republi-
can states, is now, to say the least
doubtful one. The Democrats will
most certainly re elect Governor Rus
sell, and many of the best informed
politicians believe MIR. Cleveland will
carry it also. We will get six or Sc
ven electoral votes in Michigan, while
Iowa and Illinois will be hotly con-
tested, with the chances in our favor
of all of them, or certainly in Wis
consin and Illinois.

The aged poet Whittier is dead at
the age of IS. The end was calm
and peaceful, in keeping with the
quiet and unassuming life of the
deceased, as it were. The people
Of two continents will mourn the
death Of Whittier because he was
really a great poet.
...What, my soul, was thy mission here.

That is the key to the life aud
character of John G.. Whittier. 1t
leads into one of the bravest, truest
and sweetest spirits which has ever

pleasure like that of duty fully done,
though the only reward were suffer.

Member of an obscure sect, men ol
every creed and none have been
thrilled by his spiritual passion; re.
membered as despised Abolitionist,
Southerners like Justice Lamar, of
the Federal Supreme Court, even in
the fiercest days of the National con
flict, bent in admiration of him;
casting his lot deliberately with the
people, he has spoken words which
burned in the hearts of the rich and
great-they have started as if hearing
the voices Of their better selves.
His devotion to the right raised him
above all sectarian and party feeling,
and won for him the esteem and
affection of the best in all sects and
parties. What finer inscription than
this might 60 on his monument

Pottsville has great Court House,
just completed a short time ago. 1t
is thought that it will cost the county
about 5000, 900, but the County Au-
ditors are just now stirring up the
board of County Commissioners and
the contractor and others and are en-
deavoring to find out how much the
big:structure is really worth. 1t is a
magnificent building, to be sure, but
some people have gotten the idea into
their heads that the structure isn't
worth $500, 900, and hence there is
trouble, the Auditors holding daily
sessions and taking much testimony.

The resignation Of William E.
Sharon, of Nevada, from the National
Republican Committee confirms the
judgment of many observers that the
Republicans will lose the electoral
vote Of that State, as is likewise likely
to be the case in Colorado. The party
is split in twain on the silver issue.
The Republican platform, as Senator
Teller has said, is more favorable to
their heresy than the Democratic
platform, but they have no confidence
in its honesty. For the sake of a
protest the silver Republicans will
probably throw away their votes on
the third party.

The Vermont Slump.

Vermont has given Harrison an
awful slump, and the Republican
leaders Of both New England and the
nation well understand it. The ma.
jority for Governor is less than 10, 600
and that is much the smallest majority
ever given in Presidential year since
the organization of the Republican
party,
-Four years ago Vermont gave
Harrison grand send-off by rolling
up 20 900 Republican majority for
Governor and Maine followed with
$4,000. 1t was accepted by all as
notice that the New England Re-
publicans were united and enthusiastic
for Harrison. The result was that
all the New England States were
carried tor Harrison by large ma
jorities, with the single exception of
Connecticut that was saved for
Cleveland by only 800 majority.
Now Vermont has fallen far below
the smallest September Republican
majority given in Presidential year,
and Maine is next to certain to follow
with another slump by giving from
10000 to $4,000 majority instead OF
the more than $4,000 given four years
ago. These results will not be mis-
understood by any of the party
leaders. They will mean that New
England is not united and earnest
for Harrison, and that the Republicans
must make desperate battle for New
Hampshire, Massachusetts, and
Rhode Island with nearly even
chances against their success.
The people of Vermont did not
give Harrison this awful slump by
accident. They have only one
political battle in every four years, as
all their other elections are uncontest-
ed. They must come to the front in
September of each national contest
and put the hngerboard of party unity
and earnes;ness or Of party indiffer-
ence. 1876 and again in 1884 when
the Democrats carried the country,
Vermont fell down to less than -,
900 and $4,000 respectively, while
in winning years the majority went up
to 10000 or to 10000. Now the
worst slump of all comes with less
than 10000 majoity, snd that means
that even Massachusetts, is trembling
in the scale.
The Republican leaders we'll under
stood the importance of large
majority in Vermont. The ablest
speakers of national fame, such as
Mckinley and Butterworth, were sent
there, and Senator Proctor, who left
the Harrison Cabinet to enter the
Senate, put the issue distinctly in his
Rutland speech when he said: "If
the Republican party maintains its
average majority it will be hailed as a
Republican victory. If the Demo.
Gratis reduce that majority it will be
heralded far and wide as an omen of
Democratic success in the nation"
or course, explanations are always
offered by party organs; but foregoing
public proclamation from Senator
Proctor told the truth, the exact truth.
The people of Vermont heard the
abIest Harrison champions and then
gave them the awfulest political slump
Of modern contests Times. ...

Fear is expressed among political
leaders that all the necessary machin-
cry required under the Baker ballot
reform law cannot be finished by the
time of the election in November
Twenty three thousand booths and
annexes will be necessary. The con
tractors have been working day and
night on these appliances for the past
three months, and have been able to
furnish only about 1900 leaving ten
thousand to be made within the next
sixty days. Many Of the most popu-
lous counties of the state, including
Lackawanna, Lancaster and Luzerne,
have not yet filed their orders for their
quota Of booths.
The County Commissioners Of
Philadelphia waited until last Tuesday
before giving theirs. 1t will require
GOO voting booths for that city besides
600 portable steel polling houses
Four factories are at work in this
State, one in Michigan and one in
Wisconsin making booths to meet the
demand in the counties of Pennsylva-
MIA.
COUNTIES WHICH HAVE BEEN SUPPLIED.

roe, II5.
The State pays for the booths, an
nexes and guard rails, while the expen-
ses of supplying ballot boxes, polling
houses and extra large tables is borne
by the counties. The booths cost AIS
apiece and the anrexes $50 each.
This is the maximum price, and was
fixed by the State Commission, which
estimates the total cost of booths and
annexes at $4,000. The regulation
length Of guard rail has been fixed at
fifteen feet, although in hundreds Of
districts it will be necessary to have
rails from eighteen to twenty one feet.
The pr.ce of guard rails has been fixed
at s. so each.
COST OF BALLOT BOXES.
The ballot boxes are sold at S,
apiece 1t will be necessary to have
5000 boxes. Many Of the counties
are adopting a regular size table on ac-
count of the large ballot boxes.
All booths, ballot boxes, guard rails
and tables are shipped by the contract.
or to the Board Of County Commits
sioners at the county seats and distrib-
uted under their direction. The dis.
tributing these appliances by the Coun-
ty Commissioners involve a great
amount of work and expense.
Outside of Philadelphia there will be
no polling houses used. These houses
are very expensive and only calculated
for use in districts in which there are
no rooms large enough to admit of set
ting up the number of booths neces.
