HhYORALTF CANPlIGH, I u Office, Hsw-York.

Hotel on December 81 sixty-ive members of
the Legislature signed or had previously signed
the following pledge:
I'VE, the undersigned members of the next
General Assembly Of Pennsylvania, hereby
pledge ourselves, one with the other, that we
will not under any circumstances vote for the
election of NJ S. Quay for United States Senator
nor will we enter any caucus called and con-
trOlled in his interest or in his behalf.
This pledge was signed by John * Thompson
Of Centre County: John P. McTighe. Of AL
legheny County; George c. Hill and George b
Tiffany, of Susquehanna County; Thomas J.
Reynolds. Of Lackawanna County; Benjamin F.
Welty, of Franklin County, and Samuel \. Ken
dali, of Somerset County. These men Except
Mr.. Thompson who was at home lid partlcl-
pated in the meetings of the anti-Quay organza-
ton, seemingly in perfect sympathy and accord
with the movement undertaken. Without any
change, however, in the present situation these
men broke the solemn pledges and voted di-
rectly for NJ. S. Quay for United States Senator
on the first ballot If these Republicans had
been true to their pledges the election OF NJ. 5.
Quay would have been impossible, nOtwith-
standing the perfidy of those Democrats who
No language could suffice properly to char
acterze perfcy so gross No excuse whatever
can lie pleaded for ii that Will be believed by
honest men. The pledge was voluntarily taken.
and ii has been openly and unblushingiy broken.
These men have parted company with their
honor for reasons which they dare not avow
and have condemned themselves TO lives Of social
and political disgrace.
The treason of Benedict Arnold resulted in a
distinct benefit 10 the Nation in that il crystal
liZed the National spirit and at the same time
furnished a warning and moral for all time.
But the perfdous treason TO the strongest pos
sible moral obligations committed by these
pledge breakers work incalcuable evil aside
from its immediate results. their conduct will
be used precedent and justification by every
political leper in the country.
The motive which prompted these men and
the inference q be drawn from their conduct
we leave to their constituents and the intelligent
and decent people of the country.
Pennsylvania has been doubly disgraced by
the return Of ~ s. Quay TO the Senate. First,
because a majority of the electors of the Com
monWealth selected representatives opposed TO
his election, and second, because Of the means
employed Dy him and his agents 10 the
votes necessary 10 reimpose him a Senator
upon a chea ted and Inundated Commonwealth.
The statement bears the signatures OF fifty
eight Senators and Representatives who opposed
Quay 10 the last

BILL FOR SUNDAY OPENING.
SENATOR DAVIS INTRODUCES RADICAL
MEASURE AT ALBANY.

Albany. Jan. Is (SpeciaD.-Senator Davis of Erie
County, introduced a bill to-day which practically
revolutonizes the excise law Of this State re-
CARDS the selling of liquor on Sunday. The bill
was doubtless intended for application to the city
Of Buffalo. where there is a vigorous movement at
present among liquor for open saloons on Sun
day during the Pan-Amefican Exposition. Nocing
the movement, a bin was introduced to-day in the
lower house by Assemblyman Brooks. Of Buffalo,
waich provides for open saloons all hours OF
the day and night. with the exception of those
between midnight Sunday morning and o'clock
Sunday afternoon.
The Senate bill. of which Mr.. Davis IS sponsor
although intended, il is said. TO bring about the
same results as the Brooks bill. applies TO every
town and city IN the State, and it would permit
any such community through local option 10 have
open Sunday saloons. The present State excise
law prohibits the sale OF liquor Sunday at the
open bar and offers opportunity through local
option for town or city TO vote for open Sunday
saloons The Davis bill amends the local option
section of the excise law by introducing six new
provisions which in the form OF questions. By
voting for any Of three Of these provisions

Henry H Lyman. State Excise Commissioner, on
reading the amendments TO the Excise law, con-
tained n the Davis BILL SAID 10 a 1rlpuhe CORE
spondent: These amendments appear TO me TO pe
of sweeping import. They would permit New-A orr
City, well as Buffalo, or any other community
"a have OMEN saloons on Sunday, every week in the
wear. II would then permit by the various cues
two-thirds shut Sunday saloons. or only one-hait
open. The bill is interesting and will arouse
great deal Of talk. both on the part OF the iquoF
and the temperance people.
