ON PENNSYLvA-
MIA REPUBLICANS.

In his denunciation and exposure of
the Republican regime in Pennsyl-
vania, ,ohn Wanamaker is doing grand
good work; he is working in that
common cause of all the people, honest
and decent government. No state III
the Union is so dominated by ring pol
itics as Pennsylvania; no other
state has so bad and unsavory a rep
utation in politics as the Keystone
state. Part of Mr.. Wanamakers in
dictment of the Republican party in
Pennsylvania is as follows:
The great white Republican party in
Pennsylvania is today as empty as the
great white, twisted, once great, but
now useless Maine cruiser in the Gu
ban waters.
Let us look at the wreck Shift over
in the calcium white light of truth.
The officials who are on board of
this Pennsylvania of ours come to US
through padded conventions, made up
in part from the padded pay rolls Of
officeholderS.
You and 1 and the taxpayers and
the state treasury are coerced and con-
trolled by the salary paid servants OF
the state. Your own money sometimes,
not once earned, but twice paid, goes
into their hands to buy their time to
set up primaries and committees and
conventions to do exactly opposite to
what you want done and what the
people sometimes take pains to de-
clare to be their will.
Long since we have found We can
not shame a crowd, neither can we
prosecute it.
Sydney Smith once said that a COM
mittee had neither a soul to be saved
nor body to be kicked.
Two United States senators and
score or more of congressman with
state administration in and around the
state house at Harrisburg of their
choosing; of the bosses and the legis-
lature, owned by the bosses, consti
tute a giant that utterly defes the
and makes our fair state the object of
ridicule the wide world over among
all men except politicians, who spell
Pennsylvania with three P's. 1t is
Pennsylvania, Politicians, Paradise.
The people of the country are asking
what Is the matter with the people of
Pennsylvania. How does it come that
the great commonwealth, with its
grand traditions and magnificent his
tory, has degenerated into mere BAIL
wick for as corrupt a crowd r- er
assembled together? Mr.. Wananaker
is doing yeoman service for good gov
eminent in denouncing corruption in
his state.

Dow, the Evangelist's. Ruse.

One day, a mile from his preaching
place. he came upon a man cursing furi-
ously.. Asked the cause. he said, with
much profanity, that some thieving
loafer. come hither TO hear that fool
preacher. who ought to be tarred and
feathered and run out of the country,
he'd stolen his ax-his brand-new ak;
and more, that by the theft he would lose
fine job cutting cord wood, relates
Godey's Magazine.
Come along to the preaching. 1 will
find the thief for you,f Dow said. i'm
peratively. The swearer came along,
though with face of doubt. At the
meeting house door he saw Lorenzo pick
up stone. It went with him TO the pull
pit. where he at once recounted the theft
and ended by saying: THE thief is
here. l know it. L shall hit him with
this stone. When / throw it. it will not
go near an honest man." Then he raised
his arm above his head and made feint
of launching the pebble man sitting
midway the aisle involuntarily ducked
his headzand stood self-confessed an evil
doer. He was let of upon his returning
the stolen AK and promising to get re-
lig.on before Lorenzo came again to
preach, & promise which was faithfully
kept.

TALES OF THE DAY.
Why Lamb Was Late.

Charles Lamb, when employed by his
government, was generally late in getting
to his desk in the morning, and remained
no longer than he was obliged in the
afternoon for decency's sake. 1t is said
that most of the Ella essays were written
there, and when not engaged on those he
was Scribblin@ one of his unsuccessful
plays. His last play so written Mr.. H., -
was loudly Kissed on the night OF its pro-
duction at Drury Lane theatre, and
Lamb sitting in the pit with a friend
Kissed and hooted as loudly as any one
at his own folly, and even made jest
of his dramatic attempts.
One day the chief of the accounting de-
partment at India house said to Lamb:
You are very tate this morning Mr.
Lamb indeed you are always late, SIR
Yves, replied the incorrigible
Lamb, with his slight impeachment of
speech but you must remember that [
always ego away early"

The United States has never been ex-
travagant in the giving of titles. and it
has thus happened that some of their
most notable victories have been won by
commodores and major generals. 1t is a
wise Stinting, too, for 1t leaves something
of rank yet to be conferred upon the real
heroes. The highest title is not an
empty sound. Ii is the assurance that
its bearer has deserved the highest dis
tinction for acts performed. 1t is for this
reason that the recent attempt to give the
title of lieutenant general TO Major Cen
