That . is an old trick in re Puhlicanjsongressional experience. The best thing republicans can do is to cat loose from such old rotten bulks as the ub-ouitious Jehu. Thk New York World has discovered tbat Totebuying in Herkeimer county in that state was shameful. Ia the village of Herkimer the republicans bought 198 votes and the democrats 73. More than one fifth of the batlots cast were pur chased. The republicans paid out $2 420 and the democrats a little over $900 At other points in the county a similar state of affairs prevailed. And there was no more of this political felony and debauchery in Herkimer county than in some others. Montgomery appears to be quite as bad. The evil, in fart, is spread more or less throughout the whole country. The World well shvs: "The traffic is a shame nd a disgrace to the nation, and men who thus trample their birthright as a worthless thing under their ft are unfit for self-government. While the data given show that the republicans outcorrupted the democrats, it is no time for party re criminations. There h guilt on both side?, and it reaches from the Atlantic to the Pacific. It must be stopped. The reform was effected in EagWnd and tt can be here. Let the felons be punished." On the 8 b of this month the last cut ting machine in the new tube mills of the Reading, Pa., iron works shut down and the entire mill ceased operation for an in definite period. One hundred and thir ty-flve men have been thrown out of em ployment and they have been told that dullness of trade is the cause of the mis fortune. This and the other suspensions ; of Industries which Lave tnken place since the election of Benjamin Harrison bring to mind the promises and predictions made by the republican party during the pres idential campaign. Tue workingmen were then told that in the event of the success of the renublioan ticket business men and capitalist would invest their money in new enterprises, there would be more demand for labor and In short gen eral prosperity would follow the defeat of Grover Cleveland, Gen. Harrison bas been elected to the presidency of the country, but the empty pledges of the republican bUlhersfcites have not been fulfilled. There is want Instead of plenty, and it is plain to every intelligent person that the campaign liar Id bis criDging and subservience to the io teres ts of monopoly has imposed the most flagrant falsehood upon tbe public.

Hbe is not far out of tbe way. I have oftn noticed that women who lived iuanatnMspheroof chronio jealousy were, as a ru', of an inferior stamp. 1 know a woman who watches her husband as a cat would a ni'Mise, or lot us say a gay young rat; it seem more appropriate. He certainly will bear watching, but be is aware of this extreme vigilance; be chafes under it, and, determined not to be held in leading strings, goes to-reatpr lengths than he would were his wife to show more confidence in htm. We miif ht amend (.Hilda's statement by snying, "a clever woman will never nhon her jealousy.1 There is no more pitiable or contemptible obj.i-t than a man or woman who givea way to wiiii imajriiiiiis end vain suspicions. Better, fur belter, to be hoodwinked or deceived than to suf fer the corroding passion of jeal ousy, to warp and distort one's whole being. And if fcusbauds and wives have not utter confidence in each other the confidence that firmly believes that either one or tbe other may pass through every or deal of temptation uust-.ithed then thev had best not live together. It seems to ino that most admirable element that of bravery often lacking in m;irriare. People erow faint hearted when they discover tbey have mado a mistake; they are often fain to turn their backs sn. fiy from the duties tbey have assumed. Cowardice in marriage is as repre hensible as on ;bte battlefield. You may not like the noise and confusion; the smell of the gunpowder may be unpleasant; you may long to get away from the affrav and wan der in smooth pastures and beside still waters, but to turn one's back and fly would be despicable. Thus iu matrimony. You may bedisappointed, disillusioned, neglected: there may bo blandishments and enticements beckoning you away from your conflict, but to go is cowardice to stay is bravery. Edith Sessions r upper. Tbe I'leasurei TVitbln Reach. The woman of society on whom society' demands are exacting that she bas no time to spend with her children, but must dele gate the cares of her borne to a hired house keeper, misses tbe keenest pleasures of moth erhood and womanhood. The torturea of ennni from which the wealthy and frivolous woman of tue world so often sutlers are known to the busy housewife. The little every day sacrifices which the woman in commonplace position must make render the object of them doubly vaiuable when it is obtained. Every hour of the busy woman day is tilled m with little domestic cares, each one of which brings its own blessings, and it is the finding out and recojmition of these blessings of every day life that brings the sincerest happiness the world affords. Little children shouid be taught above all things to enjoy the pleasures that lie around them rather than to reach toward those which are twyond them. It is a fault of the country forever to neglect the present possi bilities of happiness and to consider any ob ject valueless as soon aa it is obtained. restless, nervous life is the result of such un healthy aspiration. The full fruition of work is lost, and the pleasure derived from tbe attainment of any goal is but a shadow. From one step to another the worker rushes on till he reaches the highest summit, to find too late that tbe true happiness he seeks is left behind him. Detroit Free i'ress.

TRIED TO PUMP HARRISON And Gut a Very INnitlve Reftnl Indian npntift Opt n Inn. Inoiahapolis, Dec. 15. The city and state are in considerable excitement over the late rumor connecting Mr. Blame with the new cabinet It was reported Tburvdiy night that the Maine man had been offered and had accepted the state portfolio. Tbe report is not believed here. Leading Rapub- ucans, who, it is supposed, know something of the inide.say that tbey are confident that nothing has been offered Mr. Blaine, and they have strong reasons for believing that he will not be in tbe cabinet. It is suspected that tbe report was started by friends of Mr. Blaine, who have evi.ced a determination to force Gen. Harrison to tttke hirn into tbe cabinet "But," remarked one of tbe friends of tbe president-elect yesterday, "Gen. Har rison is the kind of a man who can withstand uch pressure." n ben Gen. Harrison was visited by a reporter be came into the hall and said very sharply: "I thought it was understood that I was not t o be interviewed." I h&VA tin dtdrA to intarvtaw vnn if vmi An nrtt. wish to talk.' was the half apologetic rply. "I have stared repeatedly to representatives of the press that I would have ootlimg to suv at any time In an interview.

I sup posed that it was understood, and if it is not. I want It thnrouphly understood all around that I can not and will not allow myself to ha placed in the position ot either am mini n or denying any reports that may oe put id circulation by news rMpert, Evn if they should he true, I would have nothing whatever to say about them." "But this report is of such an extraordinary nature mat" It makes no difference what is the nature of the report or through what channel it comes. I can not allow myself to be troubled wifh questions about smm ihimr. If I should say anything once l would oe exported to aain. and yu can what It would lead to. 1 might ae well undertake to keep the public Informed as to what t bare in mind, and it would amount to that if I should take up the newspaper reports every mom iotr and say this is true or that Is not rrue. You ireti tie men may go on with your spallation as to what you thioK will h dune, but I must not be asked to confirm or deny the reports that are put In circulation. I say this In all kmdu'wt, but hope It will be understood all around that I will not allow tnvself to be placed in tbe position of determining tbe trustworthmnse of any report. no matter bow important or from what source it C0RV8."' One Republican was inclined to credit the report He said: I would noc be in the least surpn-d if the newspapers have got ft about right this time. though 1 know nothing of it mvself. When Rus sell Harrison went east it was understood that be bore a message of importance to some distin guiahed Republican, and it ts now known that he has been in eon-m Italian with some of Blai tie's most trusted friends. If Blaine has been of fered the position, it was done through Russell Harrison, and bis accetance was given through the same channel. I kiow -what Har rfson has determined to trust important bas iu ess only to messengers, and not to the mail or tele graph, and I have good authority for saying that Russell bore au Important communication to the Republicans of the east, and I doubt not that some of them were Blaine's friends. Of course, tt would have been folly to communicate with Blaine personally and Russell haa no doubt deliv ered his father's message to trusted friends of the Plumed Knight, instead of himself. THE HARRISON-MORTON RECEPTION, A Young Gentleman I'reseut Citven Some thing to Remember, Indianapolis, Dec. 15. It is estimated that 7,000 nersons shook bands with Presi dent-elect Harrison and Vice President-elect Morton at the reception tendered them in Torn! in son hill last night Mrs. Morton did not attend, being taken suddenly ill just after dinner. Mrs. Harrison stood the strain on her band for forty minutes, and left the general and Mr. Morton to the tender mercies of the 4,00U who were yet to come. When tbe crowd bad nearly passed through tbe ball a lady came up leading a boy, appar ently 2 years of age. As tho mother was about to pass. Gen. Harrison's eye fell upon the child, and taking it in his arms, be gave It a kiss that was distinctly beard some dis tance away. Tbe act was received with tood applause.

He says that of course a response to the offi cial invitation of the committee must be de ferred. What Tom matt Hay A boat It, Hew York, Dec. 15 Thomas C. Piatt ays the press story that Blaine has accepted the offer from Gen. Harrison of tbe portfolio of the secretary of state Is "bosh." Mr. Piatt does not believe the position has been either tendered or accepted, and says tbat the story was started by a correspondent of a Cincin nati paper. It was sent, Piatt says, to every journal here, but tbe editors detected character and threw it in tbe waste-basket. Neither Will Blaine Kay Anything.

However, refugees from HanJoub arriving at Surikim confirm Osman Dig ma's state ments. H's letter was in reply to a request made bv Muj. Uundle last August for any information about E:nm Bey. The letter asserts Unit the mebdi has conquered all the equatorial provinces. Disiiau-he from Knakim state that Gen, Grenfi-ll Ims recognized the letter inclosed iu Osman Digmtt's as the original of the one winch b drafted for the khodive which tbe latter handed to Stanley at Cairo. Thus Stanley's capture is virtually placed beyond adouot. I he authorities of the Congo Free Mute have received no information regarding the capture as yet The Independence Beige says: "England1 doubtless will do everything that is possible to be done to liberate the prisoners. Mr. Gladstone too bitterly regrets abandoning Gen. Gordon for Lord Salisbury to abandon Emin Bey and Henry M. Stanley. It is believed that England will be forced to treat with the successful commander for tbe evacuation of Suakim, for the govern ment will not dare to sacrifice the prisoners whom Ionian Digs a threatens to kill unless tbe town is abandoned. Public opinion in England already revolts against the Soudan expedition, and this latest phase of tbe affair intensities the feeling. There can be scarcely any doubt that the white traveler mentioned as surrendering with Emin;lley is Stanley.as everything thus far teuds to conhrm this opinion. Tue b.ilance of opinion am nig African ex perts bas, for some time past, accepted tbe theory tht Man lev bad been workme towards E-nin, and if not actually with him was near him. Intense interest is felt here iu the fate of the intrepid explorer, and no one for a moment believes tbat tbe govern ment will allow his life to be sacrificed in order to bold Suakim. Further develop ments in the mutter are awaiUni with much anxiety. 11fmart.'k not a Colonixer. Beri.is.

It was too late. however, to think of drawing back. Such a course would be equivalent to defeat on the Rhine.

Cockertll Characterized aa "an Uncon scionable liar" by the Irate Head of the Gotham ffahiclpallty Ho Proves, as Usual, ap Interesting Han to Investigate Tho Gotonet Returns the Compliment with Ilcturmqne and Vigorous Addi tions. New York, Dec. 15. The sub-committee Of tbe state senate cities committee, of which Senator Fassett is chairman, was instructed by the legislature to investigate the heads of departments of the city of New York. Its original aim was to investigate al leged frauds in the construction of tbe new aqueduct, but its powers per mitted it to go into any department of the New York city government, and it H proceeding to do so with considerable vigor. Mayor Hewitt warmed things up fur the committee yester ABKAM S. HEWITT. day. He bad been subpoenaed to give the committee some points regarding tbe man agement of The City Record. Lawyer Boardman, the counsel for tbe Republican end of the committee, asked a long and in tricate question about the city patronage at present bestowed on The Law Journal and Daily Roister. The mayor was decided in his belief that these papers should get noue of the city's money. Said he: UI am told that the power and patronage of The Daily Register and The Law Journal are con trolled by n political ring, and that tbe wishes of this ring have much influence upon tbe action of the state legislatura " Delancey Ntcoll suddenly stood up, and with his hands in his pockets looked at tbe mayor. The mayor looked back at bim and said: "I wish to Bay that the government of this city bas been in honest bands during my term as mayor. I believe tbat the super visor if tbe City Record is honest, and I want to say right here tbat public statemen ts have been made by a man calling him self CoL Cockerill, which apply to me. I dont know Col. Cockerill, but I do know that he is a liar an uncon scionable liar" Mr. Nicoll pulled his right hand out of his pocket and JOHN A. COCKZBILU said: Hoid on, 1 don't think this is neces sary. I am here as a witness," retorted the mayor, "and I shall say wbat I wish to in re gard to these aspersions. When CoL Cock erill made an impersonal attack upon me through tbe columns of his newspaper bis statements were not worthy of answer. But when be makes direct charges tbat I have called upon the commissioner of aci-onnts to whitewash Mr. Costigan, and makes that charge over his signature, I repeat tbat he is a liar. 1 bat is what be is a liar; an uncon scionable liar." Mayor Hnwitt's face was a picture of wrath. A hush fell over the court room and everybody seemed to be emlmrrassed. After a few seconds Mr. Xieoll asked: Did yon ever sign a requisition for stationary without being confident tbat it was neces saryT "Well," replied tbe mayor, sarcastically. "I suppose I am on trial anyself, but 1 wiil say I never signed a requisition unless I had personal knowledge concerning it. Mr, Nicoll referred to tbe consolidated act relating to tbe purchase cf supplies. "Have you followed tbe instructions of tbe statute' be asked. I followed tbe advice of tbe corporation counsel," was tbe answer. "He is a sort of legal conscience keeper, and I have never railed to follow his advice." 1 his was a dash of tbe coldest kind of Cold water on tb ionuiry. Mr. icoil next referred to tbe increase in tbe consumption of stationary in tbe mayor's office. Ob, yes, replied the mavor, suddenly bursting into good humor like a bud bursting into a full-grown rose, "I am told that I have written 14,0'Mf letters while I bave been in office. No other mayor has ever written more than 1,000 in tbe same time. Are yoa trying to impeach the integrity of tbe city officials r tbe mayor added. "Well, you can't do it. Col. Cockrill has addressed a letter to Mr. Hewitt, declaring that the latter is a bar. blackguard, and a slanderer. Tbe colonel says be can prove it by Mr. Hewitt's public record.

Erastos Wiman, in an interview yesterday on the Batter worth resolutions, introduced in the house of representatives Thursday, said tbat But ter worth bad made a fatal mistake in in troducing his annexation resolutions, Mr. Wiman continued as follows: There are two parties to a bareain. and to this particular eae three the United States, Canada and England; and If any of these three are uo willing a itarcaiii is imHdhle. I stated some time a'0 in one of mr speeches that the sentiment against annexation in Canada was so pronounced that Its advocacy 05 any political party in that country would mean the party's defeat.

At the meeting yesterday of the com mission to revise the excise law an amendment to section 13 so that the tight of holding a liquor license should be limited to citizens ot tbe Uuited States provoked a warm argument, but was carried by a vote ot 4 to 2.
