The Republicans of the Twentieth Con-
grsssional district are having their oien-
nial muddle over again. AS usual, the
pernicious conferee system Is responsible
for it. Each Of the counties composing
the district, Blair, Cambria, Somerset ana
Bedford counties, has a candidate, and as
usual. each one insists that il IS entitled
to the nomination. The candidates nave
each appointed three eonferees. and they
have contriyed up TO the present time 70
prevent the nomination Of anybody by
sticking TO the man who appointed thems
80 that nobody has succeeded in getting
a majority. This trouble was experienced
two years ago, when the tins for Hing
papers caused stampede. and the sue
cessful man barely got his papers into the
State Department in time To get place
on the ticket. Il Is time this sort Of fool
ishness was stopped. or course, IL rests
entirely with the Republicans of the dis
trIct to make an end Of it. bat they are all
selfish srd nobody wants to give an inch
1t may happen that in the end there will
be display Of good common sense and q
nomination may be made, but we confess
that at present the counties seem 70 be as
far apart as ever. A Democratic Congress
man in that district might awaken the
Republicans of the district TO a proper ap-
probation of the situation.-Hsrrisburg

RESOLUTIONS OF RESPECT.

Alta meeting Of the Daughters of
the Confederacy, held Nov. 3rd, the
following resolutions were adopted:
Whereas, 1t hath pleased our heav-
emily Father to call from earth, from
our midst, and our society, Miss Edith
Garner, who though cut down in the
early spring Of her young maidenhood,
has left as precious legacy the record
of her pure and spotless life, and
Whereas, We, ss society, appre.
ciate and deeply deplore the loss We
have sustained, and humbly we bow to
the will Of Him who doeth all things
we'll, therefore be it
Resolved 1st, That while we shall
miss her sweet presence in our meet
ings, her ready response to all calls,
we know that our loss is her eternal
gain.
End. That we bear testimony in this
tribute Of respect, to the beauty and
purity of her character, though her
daily life, which left its impress upon
those with whom she mingled, is her
best eulogy, her most enduring mon
ument for Ito live in the hearts we
leave behind is not to de-"
3rd. That We cherish her memory.
Her young life was one sweet song
hushed ere the minor chords were ever
struck, to join the "choir invisible"
but she has not lived in vain; the frag-
rance OF such life will ever linger
and prove benediction.
4th. That We tender our deepest
sympathy to the stricken family, es.
pecially the lonely sister and co.work-
er; also that these resolutions be print
ed in the city papers, and copy be sent
to the family.

The Majesty of the Law.

The attack Of the Populist, Gov
ernor Leedy, of Kansas, upon the
Supreme Court of the United
States because of its decision upon
the Nebraska maximum freight
rates law is being denounced with
bitterness quite equal to his own.
And perhaps it does SAVIOR Of lese
majestic to describe that eminent
tribunal as concealing with its
robes "the cloven hoot of official
malfeasance and usurpation" and
descending to depths Of infamy."
But the theory that the bench, and
particularly the Supreme Court OF
the United States, should be held
in such high respect as to preclude
any criticism OF it's decisions is
usually maintained only by per-
sons to whom the decision imme-
diately under consideration hap
pens to be satisfactory. The Abo-
litionists expressed their view OF
the act OF the court in handing
down the Dred Scott decision in
terms so exceedingly disrespectful
as to awaken the righteous indig-
nation Oi the better classes at the
time, but few years later the opin-
ion on the onstitutionalitv of the
greenbacks aroused vituperation
from quite different class. 1t is
not at all certain that tho oppor-
tune changing OF the mind of JUS
tice ShiTas, when the income tax
decision was rendered, did not
avert torrent of epithet and crit
icism from the very newspapers
which are now reproving the iras-
cible POpulist for his blasphemy.
Perhaps the real sanctity of a
Judge disappeared with the curled
wigs. AT any rate, it is entirely
evident that whether the silk robes
OF our justices do or do not "con-
ceal cloven foot" they at least
do not hide the fact that the wear
erS are human and therefore liable

Revenue Raisers.

The new Comptroller General of
England, f. A. Bateman, has re-
Gently issued a very interesting
and comprehensive paper on the
comparative revenues from drink
taxation Of the United Kingdom,
United States, France and Ger
many. The following is a brief
summary Of the most striking
figures:
England derives IS per cent. Of
her total revenue from the taxation
OF liquors; she makes no wine at
all, but manufactures 80 per cent
of her spirits and 90 per cent. of
her beer. In 1896 the United
Kingdom imported wine from
France to the value Of $50, ,Ooo, 900
being one Of Frances best GUS
toners in this line.
France derives Io per cent. of
her total revenue from drink tax
alton; she manufactures 81 per
cent of her wine, 9I per cent. of
her spirits and 9S per cent. Of her
beer. OF late years the domestic
productions Of wines in France
have greatly decreased; her ex-
ports OF wine, since 1879, have
fallen OF by az ,oco, 900 gallons. and
their imports have increased in
even greater proportion, Spain
and Algeria send the greater part
of frances foreign wine. From
1886 to 1892 Frances production
of wine was less than that of Italy.
The United States, according to
Mr.. Bateman, derives so per cent
OF the total revenue from drink
taxation; she manufactures all her
beer and spirits and imports 22 per
cent Of her wine. In the last ten
years, the United States produc.
ton of wine has decreased by half,
notwithstanding the splendid vine
yards ofCalifornia. The consump-
ton Of wine has decreased of late
in the United States.
Germany derives IN per cent
of her total revenue from drink
taxation, and she manufactures all
her beer and spirits.
Germany, the United States and
the United Kingdom, taken to-
gether, with a total population Of
I5o, 900, 900 inhabitants, consume
only about one-tenth as much wine
as France alone does, with 80, ,ooo,-
oco inhabitants.

Standayd-London. Feb. aS.

When, yielding to popular clamor,
King George gave the signal for the
rush across the passes from which the
excitable Greeks were to be so igno-
miniously driven, there was never so
valiant and right minded a sovereign.
But when defeat came and the penalty
had to be paid, not only in borrowed
money. but in the annihilation of certain
Greek national ideas, mOrmurs OF dis.
loyalty revived and grew louder and
deeper. A scapegoat had to be found,
and the royal family were chosen,
Sinister rumors ofdynasticc changes were
current, and to these, IN all probability,
the present attempt is traceable. II so,
the miscTeants have frustrated their own
aims All Greece would appear to be
joining in the Ze Deum in gratitude for
the escape OF the King, The risk he
encountered, the fine courage with
which he faced the possibility Of death,
the thoughtlessness of self shown in the
act of shielding the Princess--these are
facts that should establish King George
FIRMLY in the affections Of his people,
and strengthen the claims OF has dynasty
to greater consideration than it has
lately received.
Washington sentinel., 1898-03-19
An Obvious DUTY.

Washington dispatches say that
the President will on no account
accept any proposal for an inter-
national commission 10 pass upon
the Maine disaster. He will accept
as conclusive the finding OF our
own Court of Inquiry.
That is right and reasonable. No
international commission can pos
sibly ascertain the facts so accur.
ately as our own Board Of Inquiry
has done. The physical evidence
upon which every inquiry must de-
pend becomes daily less and less
positive,
Our Board of Inquiry is COM
posed Of competent and conscien-
tious men. They have made their
explorations with an impartial pur-
pose to find out the facts. Their
report will set forth the exact truth,
and certainly our own Government
must accept it as final.
The President is right in think
ing that ''if the United States Naval
Court OF Inquiry reports that the
evidence all shows that the battle
ship was destroyed by Spaniards,
even though the Government Off
cials were perfectly innocent, the
American people will not counte-
nance delay in demanding repara-
ton from Spain"
And the mea sure Of that repara-
ton, II il is to satisfy the American
people, must include the absolute
independence OF Cuba.
We do not want blood money.
We do not want merely diplomatic
apologies. We demand that Span
ish mediaevalism, with it's barbaric
cruelties, its slaughter of women
and children, its merciless perse-
cution of non-combatants, its in
tolerable expressions, shall take
itself out of hemisphere in which
the great Republic is the justly
dominating power.
We shall stand upon the verdict
OF our court.
