WILLIAM c. spRuANce.

In case Charles B. Lore, Democrat,
should not be willing to leave his lucra-
tive and extensive practice, at the call Of
the people &c the bench, then it would
be excellent policy, as well as richly
deserved compliment TO his learning aud
character, TO appoint William c. Spru
ance. Republican, to the bench
This is an era Of good feeling and
reconciliation Old party lines are
breaking. new light is dawnlng. The
political party that has just sustained
two such awful defeats is repeutant, if
not dead; the political party which has
won two such marvellous triumphs is
magnauimons and forgiving. There is
no vindictiveness anywhere, except
against those who belong to a certain
wing Of the defeated party, who are as
iguorant and powerless now, as they
were vicious and offensive before.
Mr.. Spruance does not belong to that
class. He belongs TO the intelligent
and virtuous class who did not go into
the Mckinley infamy Of robbery. the
scandal Of pension pillage. or the indus
try Of Wholesale bribery Mr.. Spruance
belongs to that class Of Republicans
which the people and country need;
the Republican party has not used, can
not use that class, and from it the Demo.
cratic party wishes to recruit
Mr. Spruance has not been honored,
or even recognized by his own party. He
was too good and pure man for Harri
son or Higgins. He is the kind Of man
the Democratic party delights to honor.
he is the kind of a man the Republicans
drive out of their ranks.
In addition to these considerations,
which are weighty, especially at this
time, Mr.. Spruance is eminently qualified
for a position on the bench by tempera-
ment, experience, learning and exalted
character.
In former years Mr.. spruance may
have been an ardent partisan, but be is
conservative now. He has not left his
party; bat Higgins, Bach, Wiley, Ma.
hsify have carried the party away from
him. He has been too honorable man,
at all times, to engage in the political
industry which has animated and en-
gagged the active men Of his party in
this city since the present managers be-

The announcement of the death of
Chief Justice Robinson is a shock. Those
who saw him here yesterday; those who
heard him deliver an eloquent eulogy
upon his predecessor, Chief Justice
Comegys, can scarcely believe the news
they cannot realize its truth. Men
usually die only after, at least a brief
illness. It is astounding and incompre-
hensible that man who walked our
streets in health yesterday should die
of natural causes in his own bed eight
hours afterward. The terror Of sudden
death, though somewhat inexplicable to
those who do not feel It, is almost uni.
versal. In the Episcopal prayer book,
after enumerating other awful calami.
ties, the supplicants beseech the Lord to
deliver us from sudden death" as
the most dreadful Of all - the
climax Of calamities-to the human
race. That is the universal feel
ing, hence when sudden death befalls a
man, his friends, and the whole COM
munity indeed, are amazed, shocked and
filled with a certain inexpressible sorrow
that is more eloquent than words. Chief
Justice Robinson had just begun career
on the bench, for which he was eminently
fitted, that would have proved useful to
the commonwealth and honorable to him.
He was an able, scholarly, experienced
lawyer; he was decided character and a
lovable, kindly man. He was a just Judge
There are scarcely any sentences Of
praise too high too strong-it is impos-
sible TO exaggerate in praise Of Judge
Robinson. He may have made enemies
in his younger days, but in these last
days he lived to win admiration, TO com
mand respect and to beget love from
those who had any experience in his ma
tured culture, learning and wise forbear-

which will be found to add greatly to
the already high fame of Ohnet, portray
a wonderful picture Of flial love- The

of the authors mind, sacrifices herself,
her love, her fortune, everything, to her
fathers ambitions and improbable ex-
periments and inventions. She inspires
the reader with such generous and lofty
ideas of life and action that this book
must be ranked among the most power
full Of the day. The plot of the story
rests upon family frud aud is excellent.
The story is at times deeply mysterious,
and gives with a keen incisive touch the
characteristics of modern society in

Sergeant Chambers and the city Detec-

Prisoner.
There was a conflict Of evidence ia the
Municipal Court this morning between
the city detectives and Sergeant Cham
bers.
Detective Hawkins arrested Harry
Kelley at Front and Market streets last
night. Mr. Hawkins testified that Kellev
was drunk and not able to take care OF
himself and that he rescued him from
being struck by an electric car. He said
that Kelley had badge on the lapel of
his coat, representing himself to be a
detective. Kelley asked that Sergeant
Chambers be called in his defense.
The sergeant was sworn and testified
that he and Officer Scott and Detectives
Hawkins are Hatton were standing on
the corner of Front and Market streets
about 8 o'clock last night. Officer Scott
remarked there is the fellow that was
here last summer, pretending he was a
detective. l will go over and start him
off The sergeant then stated that the
man was able to take care of himself
The detectives, he said, ordered Scott to
arrest Kelley which he refused to do, as
be did not think he was breaking the
city laws. The detectives then took
charge of the man and fumbled through
his pockets and found the star on his
coat They then ordered Scott to open
the patrol box.
The Judge considered the testimony
too conflicting to impose fine and Kelley
was allowed to depart.

In 1883 the Republican majority
In Pennsylvania was nearly S0,0U0.
The party was united and har-
monious, thrifty aud flush with
money Mr.. Harrison and his nd
visers felt that Quay was too sinful a
man, by no means holy enough to asso.
ciate with the Presbyterian tangent
which was whirling away from the Re
publican party. Quay was not an elder,
nor yet a Sunday school leader He was
not even a bell ringer in the courts Of
the temple where those self-satisfed
Pharisees went up TO scold the people,
and instruct the Lord how to run the
universe. Mr. Quay was good enough to
use the money Wanamaker raised to
assist God TO carry Indiana for Harrison.
but after those pulchritudinous
saints got in, Quay and Dudley
were summarily snubbed. Dudley
stands snubbed but Quay doesn't. Quay
he lay low till Brer Harrison got into
deep water then he jumped upon his
neck and assisted him to the bottom.
Harrison appointed Wanamaker to run
one end Of Pennsylvania and McGee to
run the other. With Napoleonic tactics
Quay rushed between them, divided their
forces and whipped them both. Where's
Harrison now2 Where's Wanamaker
aud MeGee9 There stands Quay smiling
and saving wood. The country can get
on without Quay and Dudley and Clark
son and all Of their kind, but it can get
on great deal better without the pious
peskiness Of Harrison aud Wanamaxer.
The country hates frauds; the people
can endure flesh and blood, and open and
manly frauds. however bad, better than
the frauds who pretend to be everything
that they are not-whited sepulchers.
