Against Quay.

The Senate Committee on Privileges and
Elections has, by vote of four to three, de-
cided against the seating of Senator Quay, of
Pennsylvania. The committee is composed
of four Republicans and three Democrats, and
the majority vote was made up of Senator
Burrows, Republican, of Michigan, and the
three Democrats. The Senate set a precedent
not to admit Senators appointed by Cover
nors when the Legislature failed to elect, in
the case of Mantle, of Montana. Since Sen
ator Quay's term ended, the Pennsylvania
Legislature has been in session and failed to
elect a successor. As soon as the Legisla-
ture adjourned Gov. Stone appointed Mr..
Quay, and the Governors commission is the
only title he has. Quay's case is not even as
strong as was Mantle's, of Montana, for the
Pennsylvania constitution requires the Gov
ernor to call an extra session to elect SEN
ator in the event of failure to elect at the
regular session. This Gov. Stone did not do,
and it will be interesting to note the vote on
the seating of Quay. Mr.. Quay is man of
strong influence, and is backed by the Re-
publican machine in the banner Republican
state. His political friendship is desirable;
his enmitv is to be avoided.

Mr.. Cages Reply.

In reply to resolutions of the Senate and
House in relation to government deposits IN
the City National Bank of New York, Secre-
tary of the Treasury Gage has made volum-
inous reply. The reason, in brief, for putting
government money in national bank, with
out interest, is that the revenues of the gov
eminent are greater than disbursements, and
will be, says Mr.. Gage, for an indefinite time,
and to keep it in the treasury, and out OF cir
culation, might create financial embarrass-
ment. If the government receipts are greater
than expenditures, taxation should be re-
duced, then there would not be wrung from
the people unneeded funds. and there would
be no surplus to be deposited in favored banks,
without interest, to be loaned to the public at
six per cent interest Mr.. Gage knew that
a surplus was accommodating, but we do not re-
collect that he recommended a reduction o.

CONNECTCUT'S WATER FAMINE.

PIAlNFIElD, CoSy., Jan. S.-Ihe water
famine continues ali over Connecticut. Wells
are low, some dry. pasture brooks have given
out and farmers have to draw water for stock
from rivers, in some Instances several miles.
DAyIEI.seN, CoNy., Jan. 8.-Chestnut Hill
Reservoir, the largest in the State, is nearly
dry Mills all over the county are using steam,
and those that have not got steam are expect
ing to be compelled TO stop altogether. As
the swamps are frozen over in such low con-
dition, rain falling now would not penetrate
the ground and do little good. Scarlet fever
has broken out here. While not epidemic,
there are several cases, and, as low water is
always liable to become contaminated, the
citizens are anxiously hoping for heavy rain.
COVENTRY, R. l., Jan. 8.-The mills all
over Pawtuxet Valley that have engines are
using them. Water was never so low before
in January. Long Pond, Moosup Pond, in
Connecticut, and Pawtuxet river are all very
low. Scarlet fever has appeared in many of
the villages, and typhoid also in scattered
cases. There is considera BILE trouble among
farmers for water, as pasture brooks are dry.

What Is Thought About the Free Rural
Delivery.


Rev. Mr. Hawley will preach at New Oakland,
tomorrow Sunday. at II O'Clock. Sunday school
at the usual time. ,,.
great many personsare on the sick list Just now,
and our popular Doctor, ]. E. Bolte, is kept busy
day and night
Having read several articles from different arts
of the county in regard to the free mail delivery,
we came TO the conclusion il would not be amiss 10
make a few observations in regard to the matter
That the system as it now stands is defective ana
unsatisfactory no one can deny, but we believe IN
in giving it fair and i'm partial trial before con
demnaton is passed it fully. Ifafer II has been
fully and fairly tried and still meets with general
disfavor surely the Postofice Department Will not
force matter the people which is dlstasteiui 10
them The only reason for complaint at this place
is that the mail is not delivered to them as early as
they had been getting it at the postoAce inns, OF
course is no slight grievance, as some DO not GET
their mali before o clock, p. IN 1t does not reach
Oakland Mills before about Il noon. This obstacle
could be easily overcome if there were an earlier
mail to Sykesvie. That 1t does benefit persons
directly the route, none can deny. II nose
living distance from said route have their box at
n convenient place, they, too, can get their mail
earlier than by going to the Postofice we 90 not
wish it understood that we are in favor OF the
system as it now stands What we wish to impress
on the reader is what mas already been said-give
it fair trial and then If it doesn meet all require
ments then it will be time TO kick.

A Mans Heart Misplaced.

DIR. Julius Friedenwald, professor of the
department of diseases of the stomach at the
College of Physicians and Surgeons, Balti-
more, Nd, presented most remarkable case
of malformation of the internal organs, before
a class of students at the college, Monday
evening, the subject being Charles Schuppel.
The professor showed that the mans heart is
misp laced, being on the right side, instead of
the left, and, that the beat of this organ is
plainly visible on the right side; that his liver
is Gu the left side, instead of the right side.
The mans spleen is on the right side, instead
of being on the left. The physician inflated
the man S stomach with air, and the fluid, in
stead of running from the left to the
right side, runs in the opposite direction.
Schuppel's large intestines, the professor
showed, instead of emptying on the left,
emptied on the opposite side.
Schuppel is thirty -one years of age, and was
born in Heidelburg, Germany. He has no
relatives in this country; but, he says, his
father still lives in the old country. Schuppel
has exhibited himself before classes ofstudents
in many of the large colleges of this country.
He has been in that city about a week and ex-
poets 10 remain there for two weeks longer,
during which tine he expects to exhibit him
self before classes of students of other colleges.

An indictment for violation OF the primary
election laws has haen found aaainst Vim i

An indictment for a violation OF the primary
election laws has been found against VIM. j.
Miller, clerk to the Board of Allegany County
Commissioners. The information upon which
the indictment is based seems to be that on
the night before the Republican convention
last fall Mr.. Miller met Judge of the Orphans
Court Martin 81. Rice and had q conversation
with him in reference to three delegations,
composed of Rice's friends voting in the con-
vention. 1t is alleged that in that converse
ton Miller told Rice that he (Rice) would be
paid an amount sufficient to cover his primary
campaign expenses if he would come into the
combine represented by Miller. 1t is also
stated that $500 was named as the amount that
would be given Rice if his delegations came
over. Ex-State's Attorney R. r. Henderson
was appointed special counsel for the Judge
while this case was being investigated.
Elkton, Cecil county, and vicinity is infested
with frebugs. Several barns, stables and
other buildings have been burned recently

One good work Of the press bureau of the
Democratic Editors Association in the late
campaign was the expose of the intended sale
of the Chesapeake and Ohio Canal to Bal
timore and Ohio railroad interests for mere
pittance. Had the Republican party been
successful sale would have been made and a
rich and populous section of Western Mary
land would have been at the mercy of a soul
less corporation.

Slate Fire Marshal.

Gov. Lowndes recommended to the General
Assembly the abolition of the office OF State
Fire Marshal as useless Office. Governor
Lowndes was late in finding out its useless
ness. He filled the place for four years, and
in that time the Chief found an extra clerk
necessary. His recommendation to abolish
the Office is neither credit to his own SINGER
ity in appointing a marshal nor compliment
to the appointee. The Democrats may as
well try it two years, and a close scrutiny OF
the work will reveal its usefulness or useless
