Only one regiment of eight companies re mains on duty, and there is no certainty how much longer it will be retained at Homestead.

There has been no lawlessness and no signs of violence at that place for many weeks, and it certainly would seem that the civil authorities of the great and populous county of Allegheny ought to be able to protect property and maintain law and order at The National Guard of the State is maintained for the sole purpose of putting down lawlessness and riot when the civil authorities are unable to to do so. There has been no rioting, no destruction of property no lawlessness of any kind since the strike was first inaugurated. For weeks thousands of the vState troops were kept in catnp, and for months several regiments have been on duty when there was no apparent necessity for it. Even now eight companies composed of active young men are still kept from their homes and from their regular avocations, and for what? Not to preserve law and order, for there is uo lawlessness in Allegheny with which the civil authorities are not abundantly able to cope. True, the strike at Homestead not been officially declared "off," and the old employes of the Carnegie Company still refuse to accept the terms of Mr.

Trick, but that fact surely does not constitute a condition of lawlessness. Many weeks ago the Governor should have notified the Sheriff of Allegheny county that the necessity for keeping troops at Homestead was past, and that the regiments then on duty there would be speedily recalled. No man of sense be lieves that the National Guard ought to te used for the indefinite protection of property of private individuals or corporations, when such property is not threatened by mobs. Under ordinal conditions, such as have prevailed at Homestead for two mouths, the individual and the corporation must look to the civil authorities and the local police forces for protection of property. To carry out the policy that has obtaiued at Homestead, throughout the State, would require an army many times greater than the National Guard, and larger than the Commonwealth could possibly maintain.

Governor Pattison has virtually for two months required the National Guard to perform the duties which the laws of the Commonwealth devolve upon the civil authorities. This is establishing a costly as well as a dangerous precedent. The least Governor Pattison should do is to serve notice on the Sheriff of Allegheny county that from this time he must protect the property of the Cornegie Company at Homestead and preserve the peace. The crisis that justified the presence of a military force at Homestead passed away long ago, and keeping troops on duty there was an unnecessary expense to the State and an injustice to the men of the Rational Guard. The Guardsmen aie good citizens and good soldiers, always ready to do their duty to the State, and keeping them unnecessarily in the field is a great wrong to them.

The Poll Tax Again. In every important election during the past fifteen or twenty years it has cost the two political parties in Philadelphia from $60,000 to $30,000 to pay the poll tax for voters who persistently refused to pay this tax themselves and were willing to disfranchise themselves unless the political committees paid this tax for them. It has been a tremendous burden, but it has been borne by both parties rather than see their vote diminish. This year the chairman of the Democratic City Committee has given notice that his committee will pay no poll tax, taking the high moral ground that it was unlawful. If there were any assurance that this is not a mere trick to throw the Republican committee off its guard it would be well for the chairman of the latter body to serve similar notice on Republican delinquents.but the Republicans will not be likelv to accept unquestioned the declaration of the Democratic chairman.

It may be true that the Democratic committee will not purchase tax receipts for the delinquents of the Democratic party, but indirect ways may be resorted to for the accomplishment of the same purpose. While there are fewer Democratic than Republican voters in'. Philadelphia, each party has about the same number who do not valve the right of franchise sufficiently to pay the poll tax pittance. If the committees of both parties would in good faith agree not to pay this tax for any one neither party would lose anything, and in the course of a few years nearly all of these electors would become tired of being disfranchised and pay their poll tax themselves. That is the only way in which the evil will ever 'be remedied.

Chairman "Wil berc of the Democratic committee may be acting in good faith when he declares no poll tax receipts will be purchased by his committee, but Chairman Porter will want some guarantee that there is no trick concealed iu it. It is estimated that if both parties in Philadelphia this year undertake to pay the poll tax for the delinquents not less than $65,000 will be required, divided about equally between the parties. This is one of tho principal items that enter into the enormous expense of a political campaign in Philadelphia. Carl Schcbz is not dead, as many people supposed. He is no longer of any consequence politically, but he is nevertheless trying to resurrect himself.

He has written a letter to some Cleveland and Stevenson Club, in which he shows that he is still looking forward to a political millenium, but as yet fails to see the first signs of its appearing. Politics is terribly corrupt as Mr. Schurz sees it much money is corruptly spent in elec tions, State and National, and financial transactions lietween legislatures and candidates for United St.ites Senator have been known to be on a large enough scale to start a large bank. There is nothing new in all this, If 3Ir. Schurz were to designate a practical remedy for the evils he recounts he would be rendering the country a great service.

The mere reciting of what everybody knows amounts to nothing. Mr. Schurz might just as well have remained quietly in the obscurity to which he rttired a dozen years ago. When the Republican party ceased to bestow great offices upon Mr. Schurz he ceased to be a Republican.

But nobody missed him. To day's Convention. There will be many Democrats in this city to day, and nearly every section of the State will be represented in the Convention of Democratic Societies at the Academy of Music. Among the delegates and visitors will be many Democrats of prominence. Probably the note" will be sounded and the campaign formally opened.

As fellow citizens of this Commonwealth all Scrantonians will accord the visitors a hearty welcome to our city. It is the habit of the people of this city to welcome all bodies of reputable nieu, uo matter whether their mission be one of politics, of religion, of science, or what. Scranton is a good place for Democratic statesmen aud politicians to visit. We hope our visiting representatives of the Democratic Societies of Pennsylvania will all tarry here long enough, after having attended to the political business that calls them here, to see what there is to be seen in this town cf marvelous industry and development. Let them note carefully the fact that this is a community of many industries, that here is a city of nearl one huudre.l thousand souls, that this city is the creation of the Protective Tariff policy the community is prosperous and flourishing because that policy encouraged men of capital to plant industries here, which have grown because they were protected.

Scranton presents an excellent object lesson to Democratic Statesmen who have a tendency to gJ wandering after Free Trade gods. It is not a good place iu which to preact Free Trade doctrine of the Cleveland viriety. The people who have thrived here the men who came here as workingnieu and have gradually become capitalists and business men those who came here with nothing hut strong arms and honest hearts aud are now prosperous and iu comfortable circumstances this city is just full of that class of men and the number increases annually these nen know what the Protective Tariff sys eni has done for them and what it is doiig aud will continue to do for others. Ye, we like to see our Democratic breth en assemble here, and we only hope that before leaving for their homes they will tike a good look at this city so marvelously developed as the direct result of the Protective Tariff system which thi Democratic party, in its national platfomi denounces as a fraud and uncoustitutiotal. Beusmaxs, the Anarchist assassin who attempted to kill H.

C. Frick, received a svtrl, oolM sentence at Pittsburg yesterday. It is not all the vile murderer deserved, but probably all the Court could legally impose wet t'y two years solitary confinement at hard labor in the penitentiary. The wretch Lad no friends, no counsel and no money, but he had just as fair a trial as any man cculd have. There was practically no room for a defense, he having been captured on the spot.

Berg mann is one of those perverted creatures who glory in their crimes, and the only regret he ever expressed was that he did not succeed iu killiug Friok. Cnitis. Magee, the lively Pittsburg politician, is in Alabama, where he is representing the Republican National Committee in the rrovement to consolidate all the opposition forces in support of an anti Cleveland Electoral ticket. These opposition forces are the Kolbite Democrats, the People's party, and the Republicans. What will come ot this movement can only be conjectured, but the one thing certain is that the Cleveland managers are badly frightened, and fear the defeat of ie Cleveland Electoral ticket.

Uxless the facts have been suppressed there has been no spread of the cholera in New York city. The statement is given out positively that no new cases have appeared since the five first announced. This is exceedingly hopeful, but in reality there has at no time been much danger of the disease appearing in this country in epidemic form. BRIEF COMMENTS. Adlai Stevenson is very popular in the South, says a Democratic exchange.

Certainly, why should he not be? When Lincoln was assassinated Stevenson publicly declared that "he ought to have been killed earlier." The tide of indiscriminate immigration that is permitted to flow into this country is bringing with it more permanent perils than the cholera and mow difficult to eradicate. Labor Statistics Commissioner Peck says the Free Trade Democratic leaders can have him arrested, but they cannot disprove the correctness of his facts and figures. Governor Flower's profanity in connection with the Fire Island riot will be condoned, as was Washington's swearing on a certain occasion. Mr. Cleveland's letter of acceptance will not be submitted to Editor Charles A.

Dana for blue penciling. Dana would probably strike out everything but the "enacting clause," and substitute: "No Force bill; no Negro Domination Dave Hill says, "I am still a Democrat," and would like to add, "and that is why it is so hard to support Cleveland." Chairman Harrftt does not aspect to carry Pennsylvania for Cleveland, but hopes to save New Jersey. Keep Your Eye on Godey's. There is every indication that Godey's Magazine for October, ready September 15, will mark an era in periodical literature. This will no longer be known as Godev's America's First JIagazine, Established 1830.

The publishers guarantee that the Magazine itself will be filled with surprises and beauties from cover to cow. First in the THE SGRAXTON TTTPSDAY MOBKmG, SEPTEMBER 20, 1S9g. contents comes John Habbarton's complete novel "Honev and daH," a coupsnion to "Helen's Babies." fully illustrated by Albert B.

WILSON AND DR.

CYRUS EDS0N. The eyes of the nation are now centered on the work of the New York Board of Health, and the labors of that body are in charge of Charles G. Wilson and Dr. Cyrus Edson. The former is not a physician, but thoroughly acquainted with methods of sanitation.

Dr. Cyrus Edson is the son of ex Mayor Edson of New York, and one of the most t'amnni physician in the country. The Board of Health of which he is the medical head was organized in 1800, at tue time oi ilie la visitation of the cholera, and from that day to this its work in stamping out dk eases has been of the phenomenal order. The work in quarantine is under the direction of Dr. William E.

Jenkius, the Stale Health officer and the labors in the city are altogether under the direction of President Wilson, Dr. Cyrus Edson and staff of over five hundred health officers, inspectors aud aids. M'LAUGHLIN THREW THE DULL. Tho Famous 'Wrestler Cross Buttocked the Brute aud Sat on Its Head. Colonel J.

H. McLaughlin, once the champion collar aBd elbow wrestler of the world, has come off victor in a struggle for life with a bull. The colonel enlisted as a private iu the Twenty sixth New York infantry at the beginning of the civil war, and after a service of four years and four months he came out a colonel iu the Twenty fourth Xew York cavalry. At the end of the war he settled at Detroit, where he acquired his great reputation as a wrestler. Five years since he came to Seattle, and this city is now his home.

A day or two ago he had an opportunity to show that he had not lost his former skill. He was crossing a 10 acre lot, filled with brush, stumps and fallen timber. He was in the center of the lot, when he saw a big red bull coming toward him. Supposing the bull to be of a peaceful disposition, Colonel McLaughlin walked leisurely along, until, warned by an angry bellowing, he turned and saw the bull within ten feet of him. There was no mistakingthe animal's intentions, for its head was down, tail erect and feet pawing the earth.

The colonel knew he was in for a struggle, but before he could move the infuriated beast had him on its horns. The wrestler's presence of mind did not desert him. Quick as a flash he seized the horns, and after the first tossup he found himself on the back of the animal, but still clinging to the horns. An instant later the bull bucked and McLaughlin was lying in a brush heap ten or fifteen feet away. The man picked himself up just in time to receive a fresh onslaught.

By a dexterous feint he avoided the rush, and with his right hand seized the left horn of the bull, and with his left hand the nose ring. The contest then became one of brute strength against human skill and intelligence, combined with unusual force and endurance. For a time the bull seemed to be getting the best of the bout and the battle. The beast would toss his head in the air, hurling the wrestler aloft, and bringing him to the earth again with a crash among the bushes and brambles. The athlete held his grip, however, and avoided being thrown under the feet of his adversary; With his clothes torn from his body, and bleeding from many scratches and bruises, Colonel McLaughlin had about made up his mind that the championship belt of the world for eollar and elbow wrestling, which hangs in his house, must go to the bull when he thought of an expedient.

Without loosening his hold he sprang to one side, placed his hip against the bull's shoulder, and exerting nil his strength, succeeded in cross buttocking the animal. The bull went heavily down head under, and one horn driven deep into the ground. The man had won the match. Then he was in the plight of the hunter with the bear by the tail. He could hold the bull, but he did not dare to let go.

He sat on the beast's head and rested. Finally he drew his knife and was opening it with his teeth to put an end to the bull's life, when some men who had seen the combat from a distance came to the rescue and secured the bull. Colonel McLaughlin's clothes hung in tatters and was badly bruised and scratched, but he still held the championship belt. Cor. New York Sun.

Ghostly Photographs. "Talking about the photographs of ghosts," the Ordinary Man said, "reminds me what a ghostly thing the ghost of a photograph is I mean of course a photograph that has faded. Faded photographs are especially common in the sitting rooms of the lower middle classes, and there is generally a little story about them. 'And the one over the door is Aunt Jane. Few knew what she went through, poor dear, though you wouldn't think it to look at her Then they tell you what Aum Jane had in her back, and what a mercy was when she was taken.

The photograph is always pale yellow and spotty. Yon can see one of Aunt Jane's eyes, her chin, both her hands out of focus, and part of the common or photographic basket of flowers; the rest has all gone. I detest faded photographs. But for the matter of that, it is always difficult to tolerate any one else's old associations." "The faded photograph is not so bad the mourning card as an ornament," said the Journalist. "One should have a special cupboard for old associations, and it should be kept locked.

One should have another cupboard for unfortunate presents. There is no man probably, however careful in his choice of relations, but has one auntly person who does things in crochet for him. I wonder, by the way, why one's relations are never quite so nice as one's self." "Come, now," said tne Mere Boy. "I don't see why you should say that. I could understand one of your relations saying it" Black and White.
