Their Reception by the Mountaineers Is
.... Far From Cordial.
ADDISON, Pa, April 49, The tramp from
Chalk Hill to this point was one Of great
suffering for the marchers of the Com
monweal of Christ. While the storm had
abated in measure the depth Of snow ON
the ground made walking burden. and
the stops fer rest demanded by man and
beast were frequent. The horses in wagons
were unhitched at intervals. There We're
many mountaincers down here to view
the Commonweal, and there Is an ugly look
abroad. Mountain liquor has been flow
ing like water. and the men are in a
proper state for the conflict. The noun
taineers are excited over the army, and
would crush it out if possible. Several
clashes have been avertcd, but trouble is
expected.
The only licensed saloon in the place is
opposite the camp, and the liquor is being
dispensed with lavish hand. Such Is the
feeling that Marshal Browne called upon
the army to carefully abstain from the use
of liquor or any possible conflict. Last
night Browne and the Unknown spoke,
Mr.. Coxey being absent in Cumberland
arranging for the army's arrival there on
Sunday Two lines of pickets were placed
at the camp, and no member was permit
ted TO leave

An adjustable combination action is

upon these knobs any combination of

DEMOCRATS WILL RESIST.
To Fight the New York Republican Ger
rymandcr Before the People.

Last Friday was practically the closing
day of the NV York State Constitu.
tional Convention. The chief bone of
contention has been the apportionment
for future senatorial and assembly dis
tricts. The Republican majority claims
that the apportionment is fair to all con-
cerned, but the Democratic minority
claims that it discriminates against the
large cities in favor of the country dis
tricts, and that the discrimination was
unfair to the Democratic party as a
whole. 1t was voted to split the bill into
sections, though the sections are not as
numerous as the leaders of the Demo
cratic minority would have preferred.
The measure will be submitted to the
people in the form of three ballots. The
first ballot provides for the adoption Of
twenty-nine articles, the second for the
apportionment article, and the third for
the canal improvement measure.
President Choatc appointed a commit.
tee to prepare an address to the people,
explaining the work of the convention,
The Democrats refused to serve, and the
Republicans were finally compelled to
prepare the address without their assist
ance. LEhe Democrats assert that they
will prepare another address, denouncing
the address prepared by the majority.
The majority address explains that of the
400 amendments proposed only thirty
one have been accepted. These amend
ments provide for the separation in the
larger cities of the municipal elections
from the National and State elections,
for the prohibition of lotteries, pool sell
ing, bool-making and all forms Of gam
bling, for the abolition of the statutory
provision limiting the right to recovery
for injuries causing death to 5000, for
the prevention of the naturalization of
foreigners during a period of nine days
previous to general election, for the
adoption of the most approved mechani
cal devices in elections, for the establish
ment of a system Of registration, for a
new aprortionment of Senate aud Assem-
bly, districts, fixing the number of Sena'
tors at fifty and the number of Assembly
men at $50, for the enforcement of the
principle of civil service reform, and for
the prohibition of the contract system Of
convict labor.
