LOTTERIES.

At the opening of the criminal
court at Harrisburg recently, Judge
Mcpherson called the attention of the
grand jury TO the various lotteries set
up by shopkeepers and others to
chance off bicycles, diamond pins and
other valuable articles, and laid down
the law against this in very vigorous
language. He said:
ga lottery is form of gambling
forbidden by law under heavy penal
ties. What is popularity known as a
rattle is a lottery and SO is the dis
posing of money or property of any
kind by the sale of Chances A mer-
chant who gives tickets to his Gus
toners with articles purchased, and
afterward decides by some form or
chance (by drawing lots, for exam
ple), which tickets shall receive a
prize either in money or in property
of any kind, is guilty of maintaining a
lottery. So, too, a lottery is main
tanned by any person, whether he is
merchant or not, who sells tickets
| which ticket is to receive prize. But
a merchant may lawfully give tickets
| to every customer or to those only
who buy a certain amount and may
afterward exchange articles in his
store for a specified number of these
tickets; for in this there is no ele-
ment of chance. And a merchant
may also lawfully attract customers
by offering to give certain articles to
any one who buys goods to a speci-
| fed amount; for this applies TO every
| such buyer and is also free from
| chance. In brief, the essence of a
lottery is that property is thus acquir-
ed by chance, and whoever sets up
scheme by which this is to be done,
sets up a lottery and is liable to pun
ishment by the criminal court.-Man-

1t is said that there are 5000, 900
flags made in the United States every
year; and these are brought from the
factories and sold to small boys, polit-
ical clubs, public buildings and citizens
until, at the end of the year, the en-
tire supply is exhausted, and the mills
and factories are full of orders for
more.
A great many of this number are
sent out of the country TO other lands
where there are American citizens
who yearn for sight of Old Glory and
must have it waving over their colo
ny, wherever that may be. And 9TH
ers go out on ships to float over the
ocean, telling their story of American
citizenship and American rights;
while many others start out with ex-
plorers upon expeditions of strange
discovery, and are lost in the trials
that beset the discove ries ere there
has been chance to plant the flag
and repose under its folds.
But by far the greatest number stay
right here in America and are used up
in the legitimate service expected of
a country's flag. 1t is gratifying to
learn that so many are demanded each
year by the loyal hearts to whom it is
the glorious symbol of Nationality and
Liberty.

the free,

Mr.. HENRY VANDEFORD, one of
the best known journalists in the state
of Maryland, died after a brief illness
of paralysis Saturday evening. He
entered upon his life work as a news
paper man shortly after reaching
manhood, and for nearly go years fol-
lowed the calling Of a journalist and
editor. He was the founder Of several
newspapers, one of which is the Mid
dletown TRANSCRIPT. II was in the
year 1868 that he started this paper,
and reference to the files Of those
early editions show paper in every
way creditable to himself and The
community it represented. Mr.. Van
deford was highly esteemed as a
gentleman and scholar by all who
knew him here, his quiet dignity and
gentle manner revealed the true Mary
land gentleman of the old school. He
gave an impetus to our people and
started them on new lines of thought
and action, and of him it can be truly
said the town is better by his having
dwelt here. That we may make as
worthy journalistic record is the
aim of his latter day successors.
Middletown transcript., 1894-02-03


THE TRANSCRIPT extends It's hear
test congratulations to the Hon,
Lemuel Ely Quigg, member Of Con.
gress elect from the 14th district oi
New York City. His election is one
OF the greatest political victories OF
recent times. In 1892 his predecessor
was elected by majority Of 6, 900 and
it was nothing less than complete re-
volution which overame this enormous
majority and gave instead a Republican
majority of 1000, and the reduction
Of the majority in the 18th district
from II 900 to 1000 is another strong
indication Of the change of public
sentiment from 1892. In less than
one year of Democratic rule there is
witnessed in the very heart OF
Democratic tammany-ridden New
York city, political revolution pro-
badly never before witnessed in the
metropolis. Tariff tinkering has
received an answer nnm istakable In
its tone. The elections of last fall in
dicated the first turn of the tide, and
by reason Of the fact that the election
on Tuesday last was in the very strong
hold of Democracy indicates that the
verdict of the people is and will be
'ssmash the Wilson bill" and yet the
Democrats rush madly on.

THE prospects are that the nomina.
tion Of Wheeler Fl. Peckham as AS.
sociate Justice Of the Supreme Court
will be rejected by a larger major ity
than.that of Hornblower. The New
York Senators are relentless in their
fight upon the Administration, and
will leave no stone unturned to pre-
vent the confirmation Of Peckham
whose nomination upon the part of the
president seems to have been nothing
less than piece of spite against
Messrs, Hill and Murphy. While there
were many distinguished members Of
the bar throughout the country of far
more judicial turn of mind, and better
qualified in every respsect than either
Hornblower or Peckham, yet Mr..
Cleveland made use of his appointing
power to this high Office as means to
show his feelings towards the New
Yord Senator'S. The Senators realize
that while the President has the ap-
pointing power yet confirmation re-
mains with the Senate, and in view Of
the fact that many of the Democratic
members Of the body consider them
selves ignored if not insulted by Mr..
Cleveland, they will make strong
effort to defeat this nomination which
is far more distastful to them than
that Of Hornblower. Surely the Con-
gress Mr.. Cleveland "has on his hands''
make bis life interesting, if not plea.

The prospects are that Secretary
Carlisle's proposed bond issue will not
be placed as easily as he expe :ted.
During the severe financial stringency
last year when the Secretary ignored
the appeals of the leading brokers Of
New York to relieve the market, It
was only by the skillful management Of
these men that the panic was prevented
from being far worse than it was. No
aid or lelief came from theIreasury and
that the tables are turned and the De-
partment wants aid and assistauce from
the very men who were ignored. These
men are not falling all over themselves
in their efforts to get these boLds aud
Mr.. Carlisle will have far more diff.
Guilty than be would had he acted with
the wisdom expected of one in his
position. At that time he was afraid
that the western and southern Demo-
Gratis and Populist would consider him
an ally Of Wall street but now that
he is in soredistress by reason Of the
deficiency in the Treasury he gladly
calls on these same ssgold bugs'' to
come to his aid. Ee thought the
Southern and Western banks would
come to his rescue but they have not
and hence his journey to Wall Street
on Monday to discuss the proposed
issue of bonds to the New York bank
ers. A very noticeable fact at that
meeting was the absence Of the repre-
sentatives from the firms Of Drexel.
Morgan & Co., Morton, Bliss s. Co.,
and the Seligmans, which three firms
have been famous in the past in float
ing government bonds. And still the
evidence Of incompetency piles up.

WHO WROTE TT,

a OeuOcfdtlc M. D., OF MlQQI6'
town expresses himself on the admins.
tration's 8 policy of infamy in the New
York Sun Of January 2Sth, as follows:
A COMBINATION OF RoYALIsTs.
To the Editor of The Sun-SIR: We
are confronted by an international tan
| gle,a vacant throne, a distracted Queen,
two outraged publics, ratified Presi.
dent, and disgusted Democracy, and
venture, though with many misgiv-
ings, to proffer from this remote village,
into which, however, the useful rays OF
your great luminary penetrate, the fol-
lowing solution of the intricate prob
lem:
From the unremitting solicitude
shown during the last six months by
Mr.. Cleveland in the domestic affairs of
Hawaii and its late duSky Queen, it Is
evident that he is more concerned in
perpetuating there the rule of that ig-
norant oldbarbarian than in mining the
more important concerns of our own
country. Indeed, his devotion to the
lewd and bloodthirsty Iii has been car
ried to the pitch Of romantic chivalry
equalled only by that of the Don for his
Dulcinea del Toboso.
Thanks to. the policy of infamy
and buffoonery Of this Quixote, our
party is sitting in the stocks prey to
the worlds derisive laughter. AS one
may see from his autocratic conduct in
this whole matter, from hi3 persistent
snubbing of his Cabinet and party, not
to mention his undisguised contempt
for Congress and the country generally,
Mr. Cleveland has developed a decided
taste for royal honors and an itching to
adorn his fat brows with the diadem of
the Caesars. And Of all this sWelled-
head nonsense the country is very
weary.
There is an empty crown and va
cant throne in Honolulu, besides all
thecust0mary regalia and miscellane-
GUS paraphernalia of royalty which the
unappreciative Honoluluans some time
ago rudely thrust into his late Majesty
Kalakaua's cellar.
Isuggest, therefore. as happy solu-
tion of this unhappy business, that Mr..
Cleveland abdicate his throne here and
at once join the disconsolate Cleopatra
of the Pacific at Honolulu; that they
thence betake themselves, with all and
singular the aforesaid insignia and bag
gage Of royalty, to some one Of the
cannibal islands whose late ruler has
been REASONABLY potted by bis subjects,
and there set up the Gar business with
the late Hawaiian regal effects.
Our party, freed from the clutches Of
its .Old Man Of the Sea, will be able
breathe again.
Mr.. Cleyeland's cruel anxiety about
the personal eafety Of his dear Lii will
be set at rest. Moreover, he can in
sdulge in his seagirt kingdom to the top.
Of his bent those despotic notions Of
bis of which he has grown 80 fond, and
whose practice seems better adapted to
the meridian Of Constantinople or the
cannibaI islands than Washington. No
doubt, too, his clout- wearing anthlopo-
phagi subjects will be better able to
appreciate such methods than the
Americans.
am constrained to offer these sug-
gestions in order that, in the words OF
Mr.. Cleveland himself, ..justice and
right may be done to ali parties, = and
desire that They may be by you duly
presented to all my cotlntrymen.
