SCKANTON, JUNE 15, 1893. The Army of the Potomac Veterans of the Army of the Potomac, Scranton greets you and feels honored by your presence and in cordial evidence of the sincerity of its welcome it dons a holiday attire, lays aside the cares of business and devotes it energies to the suitable entertainment of the brave men, who in the hour of their country's peril, manfully faced the dangers of field, hospital and fever infested camp. Nearly three decades have passed since the mighty struggle of treason against loyalty, of right against wrong called you into action. As each succeeding year passes away your ranks become thin ner, and with each succeeding year the principles against which you so manfully fought and for whose overthrow so mauy of your brave comraues uomj laid down their lives, lose one by one their last supporters until at last the causes of that gigantic struggle exist only as matters of history and memories of a past for whose return no one sighs. But in the accomplishment of this you have gained a noble heritage, a united and prosperous country, which is the heritage of all alike, and a meed of love, honor and esteem which belongs peculiarly to you and to your comrades, who fought just as bravely and died just as nobly on other fields.

You have your household gods like others. You have the memory of your great commander, Grant, of the 1 brilliant Sheridan and the dashing Hooker, of Meade, Hancock, Reynolds, Burnside and a score of others, all gone to their last resting place. What the Tenth was to Cesar's Legions, the Old Guard to Le Grande Armee, the Army of the Potomac was to the forces of the Union. Throughout the whole war continually fighting, always in front of the coveted goal gained at Appomatox. These memories, these recollections are your heritage; a united, happy country in which freedom is an entity and not a mere name is the heritage of the whole Nation, North, East, South and "West, the United States of America.

Governor Boies' boom has shrunken to that extent that his friends now talk of putting him on the ticket for Vice President, provided Cleveland heads the ticket. For obvious reasons nobody wants second place on the ticket with Hill. A Question of "State Rights." Our opponents appear to be greatly distressed over their discovery that Harrison received more votes in the Minneapolis Convention from the States that he did not carry four years ago than from the States he did carry. It is a little difficult to understand how that fact will help the opposition. For reason well known to every one Harrison received only a minority support from the New York, Pennsylvania, Ohio, and some other States, but everybody also knows that that fact signifies Four years ago the New York delegation was for Depew, the Ohio Delegation for Sherman, and even the Indiana delegation was not unanimously for him asifirst choice, nevertheless he carried each of those States.

The delegates in National Conventions may or may not represent party sentiment in their States. Sometimes they do so, but much more frequently they represent themselves, and consider only their own selfish ambitions and personal advantages. Delegates nearly always chafe under instructions. Being instructed deprives them of very much of their importance, and many of them always welcome any change in the situation that gives them a pretext for getting away from their instructions. The prevalent notion that the delegations from States where the party is in a minority should not be entitled to ihn aamp.

nnnsidcration as those from sure or debatable States might just as well be abandoned, otherwise the party rules on trht to be chanced so as to cive a pre 0 ponderating power to the States that are expected to turnisli the electoral votes necessary to achieve success. When the Democratic National Con vention assembles next week it will be fnimri that the candidate who will un doubtedly be in the lead Cleveland will have two thirds if not three fourth of his snnnnrt from the New En eland. Middle and Western States from which he has Jittle prospector securing a single ciectorii? But what will that sig nify JC nothing at all. There was tin irreponrikble' opposition to General Harrison in any RepuWjcStt. State, such as there is against Cleveland in one and against Hill in half a dozen States.

Harrison is just as formidable a candidate, nominated as he was. as if he had received the support of the solid delegation from every Republican btate. Hill's supporters concede a majority of the delegates to the Chicago Convention to Cleveland, but claim he can never secure the necessary two thirds. They claim that Hill will have on the first ballot, not less than 338, which is a little more than one third. Where they expect to get the other third from they do not explain.

The Palmer, Boies and Carlisle men would have to go to Hill almost in a body to nominate him. Nobody believes they will do it. Tub appropriation required to cover the expenditures for pensions has grown to proportions that cause even the more liberal minded men in Congress to look grave. As reported to the Senate the Pension bill carries an appropriation of $146,787,850, or nearly $12,000,000 more than last year. What causes most con cern is the fact that the end has not yet been reached.

The increase is steady in spite of the fact that there are more pen uiouers now than there were soldiers in the Union Army when the last Confederate Army surrendered, and still there are thousands dead, other thousands who are claiming pensions and yet other thousands who are not seeking a place on the rolls. Tie situation will necessarily attract more attention than ever before in the near future. The later pension laws are so liberal as to practically let in every one who ever served in the army, yet nobody expected to see the rolls grow as they have grown until they contain close on to names. The question is what can be done about it? The Democrats at Sea. Within less than a week of the assembling of the Democratic National Convention the leaders of that party are as hopelessly at variance as at any time since last To the casual observer the situation in the Democratic party may not appear unlike to that of the Republican party on the eve of the Minneapolis Convention, but, in reality, it is vastly different The Republicans differed only as to preference of candidates.

Harrison, Blaine, McKinley and Sherman all stood for exactly the same principles, the same national policy, the same measures of administration. All were recognized as equally unswerving in their devotion to Protection, all equally favoring the policy of Reciprocity, all equally firm in their convictions of the necessity of an honest currency. The champions of Harrison and the advocates of some other man stood on precisely the same platform; the only difference between them was as to the man who should be selected as the standard bearer of the party in carrying out the policy on which all were accord. The dissensions which to day distract and divide the Democratic party are of a vastly more serious character. It is not merely a difference as to candidates, but as to party No one pretends that Cleveland and Hill stand for the same purposes, for the same measures of governmental policy.

Cleveland is now, as he has been for more than five years, bound up heart and soul in the one idea of overturning the protective tariff policy of the government and substituting, to use is own language, "a policy inevitably tending to ultimate Free Trade. On the silver question he is the recognized representative of the extreme opponents of silver. Hill professes to be opposed to the extreme Free Trade views of Cleveland and while not claiming to be a Protection ist, is nevertheless opposed to striking down every vestige of the present tariff policy of the government. On the silver question he has been bidding for the sup pon of the free silver advocates, but has lacked the courage to commit himself in such a way as to incur the hostility of the anti free silver sentiment in his own State. But the differences between the two contending and warring factions do not end there.

It extends to the personnel of the candidates. The Cleveland faction regards Hill as a man whom they could not support for the Presidency without sacrificing their self respect as Democrats and as citizens; in short, as a species of political desperado and free booter whose election to the Presidency would be a stigma upon the country. On the other hand, the Hill faction regards Cleveland as a species of political mongrel, about one third Democrat, one third Mungwump and one third something foreign to either. That Cleveland has the support of a majority of tho Democrats is so evident that no one can deny it. The only hope the Hill men have of defeating Cleveland is the two thirds rule, and even that may not avail them.

The attempt to break Cleveland's support by turning toward a new man may prove no more successtul than was the movement in favor of Mc Kinley in the Minneapolis Convention. If the Chicago Convention adopts a platform before the nomination of a candidate it must inevitably be a straddle on the tariff and silver question. Otherwise the platform may not fit the candidate. The Democratic party is divided on questions of policy, principles and measures. That is the great trouble that will confront them in the Chicago Convention.

The Democratic newspapers are busy just now predicting the defeat of Harrison and Reid. They always do this in the early summer and keep it up until November. The Republicans have never yet been able to nominate a ticket that the Democrats did not have defeated right along from the day of nomination until the votes were being counted, but when the count was completed they have in every instance except one, for thirty years, discovered that they had blundered in their estimates. This year will prove no exception to the rule. They can easily beat Harrison and Reid in June, July, August, September and October, but not in November.

Since the death of L. L. Polk, the leader of the Farmers' Alliance, Hon. Jerry Simpson has blossomed out as a candidate for the People Party's nomina tion for the Presidency. The nomination had been conceded to Mr.

Polk without a contest. It is said that Mr. Simpson will certainly be endorsed by Kansas for the nomination. It had been supposed that Senator Pcffcr was the first choice of the Kansas Alliance party for anything he might want, but It seems that brother Simpson has been forging ahead and now cut shines his big whiskered colleague. Anom the more important appoint ments to be made by President Harrison in the near future, and which may possibly be made this week, are a Secretary of State and a Justice of the upreme Court.

While It Is possible that the President may name for these offices men whose selection is not expected, there is ho fear that his appointments will not be of the highest order. There is an abundance of material to select from, yet the selection of Blaine's successor is naturally a matter of unusual interest, and of more than ordinary delicacy, owing to the world wide prominence of the retiring Secretary. A Powerful Forging Press. The installation of a 4, 000 ton hydraulic press in the Saint Jacques Iron works at Montlucon, France, serves to mark the progress of an innovation in forging work. The substitution of hydraulic presses for powerful steam hammers for the forging of large masses of steel has for some time been steadily on the increase.

It is found that the work of the preps is more regular, homogeneous and rapid, and that the press costs much less to install than the steam hammer. Finally, the difficulties met with in the installation of tho foundations and anvil beds increase in such a measure when the weight of the hammers is increased that the limit of Dower that cau bo eiven to them has been practically reached, while the pos THE SCRAOTON REPUBLICAN, WEDNESDAY MORNING, JUNE 15, 1892, gibilities of press power cannot as yet be accorded any limitations.

A New Cancer Cure. From the London Hospital. Dr. Schultz, of Buda Pesth, has made some experiments with alcohol in the treatment of cancer. The alcohol is injected into the structure of cancerous growth.

A certain amount of benefit seems to have been gained. About ten cases have been treated in all and, although it is not claimed that any positive cures have been effected, it is asserted that several cases the farther growth of the cancerous structure has been arrested. This, as will be seen, does not really amount to very much. In certain cases months may pass without the observer being able to say with certainty whether a particular tumor is growing larger or not. That is especially the case when the growth is internal, and all the cases treated by Dr.

Schultz appear to have been of this character. So far as the experiments have gone it cannot be considered that auv results of a permanently trust worthy'kind have been obtained. It is satisfactory, however, to record that capable medical men in various parts of the world are constantly and conscientiously working at the subject of a cancer. It is desirable also that other medical men who have opportunities should experiment on similar lines. The failure of so many methods of cancer treatment is thought by some to be somewhat of a blot on the medical escutcheon.

Experienced physicians and surgeons can hardly indorse that view of the question. Nevertheless, we are all thankful when new lines are struck out, and when there is any promise, however fnnf tha rlawn nf ft brighter dav for can cer patients.

A Little Girl's Experienced a Lighthouse. Mr.

nd Mrs. Loren Trescott are keepers of the Gov.Lighthouse at Sand Beach, and are blessed with a daughter four years old. Last April she was taken down with the measles, followed with a dreadful cough, and turning into a fever. Doctors at home and at Detriot treated her, but in vain: sue grew worse rapidly until she was a mere 'handful of bone's." Then she tried Dr King's New Discovery and after tne use or two and a half bottles, was completely cured. They say Dr.

King's New Discovery is worth its weight in gold, yet you may get a trial bottle free at Matthews drug store. A Boy's Essay on Cats. A small oov in one of the Detriot schools recently handed in his composition on cats: Cats have four legs and nine lives. Why they ara five legs short I do not kno at this time. 1 guess can nna oui mo wnen I die.

I think cats would be a gooddeel funuyer if they had nine legs and five lives, don't you? Cats have tales wmtcn they rap round thare ieat wnen they set down so as to hold them together. I kno a bob tailed cat that is ashamed to set down in public a tall. I gess it is afrade its feat will skntter. There are Tom cats and Puss cats, whitch the Tom cat is more massive and has a more sounding voise, in the midnight darkly when oil elts is still. Cats cries like babies I ome time, but vou can not give them parrygorick to quiet thare nervous systems like you can abies.

We have a baby at our house that I gess has drinked about foar quarts of parry gorick and every nite it cries just the saim for more. I gess that baby must have the parry gorick habbit. Young cats are very frisky and they will play all day because they don't have no skool to go to. I guess I would like to be a young cat till I was growed up to be a man. Cats eat milk and mice regular and the canary for dazart.

Cats are very clean animals, but I never thought it was very clean to spit on their nanas ana wasu uure mwa in the manner in which they do. I guess I have wrote all I kno about cats. P. S. Cats has electrisity in thare backs and they can bio up thare tales as big as a fli brush when they are froshus.

When a man gives his poor kin a dollar he always calls it tnree. In most novels girls are taught how to be heroines, not how to be wives. You can almost alway3 please a woman bv telling her she doesn't looK strong. Some people get the reputation of being patient because they are too lazy to kick. A woman's idea of riches is not to own much, but to own more than any one else sne knows.

Men are very much like dogs; the more worthless they are the more they howl when they get hurt. When Suspicion points her little finger at a man the flnger soon grows to Da as large as a telegraph pore. A woman never knows how gallant her husband can be until some other woman comes to visit them. A man will grant his wife any right more cheerfully than the right to be sick when he feels baa nimseu.
