THE TOIES PHILADELPHIA, SATURDAY MOENING, SEPTEMBER 4, 1886. SEPTEMBER BY THE SEA. HE (9IMES on the Allegheny City shore of the Allegheny river, just opposite one of the busiest parts of Pittsburg, instead of being at a magnificent distance in the suburbs, there is a possibility that it will be a success. Anyway, the people of the two cities deserve credit for the pluck and enterprise with which they are going to work to make it one. The people of Philadelphia can help theai, at a positive advantage to themselves, by sending exhibits of this city's great manufacturing products to astonish the people who think everything is made at Pittsburg that ia worth making.

Chairman Cooper sits and wonders why nobody starts a relief fund for the sufferers by the Wolfo earthquake. It must be because the biggest part of the earthquake Is yet to come; but the sufferers would prefer to get their relief early. There is a prospect that the Booialistio workingmen of New York city will have a chance to stand up and be counted. They propose to nominate Henry George for Mayor, and if this is done the vote for him should prove in some sense an indication of the extent to which his doctrines are accepted by the working classes in that city. He will probably be voted for by some who noither know nor care what his opinions on economic questions are, but on the whole hi3 vote would prove a pretty fair test of the progress of socialism in New York.

If the fedebtrian on tho south side of Chestnut street feels a sudden qualm of sickness he need not think another earthquake has struck him. It may be, and probably is, only a loose flagstone in the pavement. honors and shame Mr. McClure to his long bnt ceaseless task of exposing official crime and vindicating publio integrity for the safety of society. He has braved the threats and defamation of every criminal class, each of which, from Mayor Smith up or down, has iu turn or in chorns, blatantly accused him of its own crimes and hired the cheap blackmailer to repeat the accusations to the public.

And the results of the widely different methods and practices of Mayor Smith and Mr. McClure are aa widely different as their aims and efforts. His "methods and practices find him today withont an honest citizen as his friend in the city that gave him its highest honors, and without a reputable publio journal to justify or even excuse his acts, and he is solemnly arraigned at the bar of the tribunal of the people as a public criminal. Mr. McClure has no publio act that provokes the contempt of the honest or the apology of the dependent.

He has seen officials from nearly every city department transferred from office to prison garbs largely by his persistent and fearless warfare against public crime, and the ballot thief and the embezzler aud the jobber have cursed him, as crime ever curses him, while journeying to Moyamensing or Cherry Hill. Mayor Smith is right. The political and other methods and practices" of our tottering and self accusing Chief Magistrate are not tho ways of Mr. McClure, nnd there is now little prospect that sealed envelopes from Mr. McClure pointing the way to public justice, will ever be addressed to Mayor Smith.

POLITICIANS AT THE PICNIC. Candidates and Managers of Both Parties) Mingling With the Granger. Special Dispatch to The Times. Williams Grots, September For the last day the Grangers picnic "was an unprecedented success.

The railroads eoevoyedl to tbe grove about six thousand people, who constituted half the number on thegroyud. Cooper, of the Republican State committee, and General Osborne, Republican candidate for Congress aft Urge, arrived about noon and were shown the various objects of by Lanager Thomas. The Democratic delegation, couistmg of LieanantGoverner Black, Maxwell Stevenson and William Brennen, candidates on the Democratic State ticket, aud othor Democrats, arrived in a special traiu at half past two In the afternoon. Manager Thomas and Colooel Harry McCormick headed the procession as tt moved through the grove on the way to the pavilion. Among those in tine were Chairman Hensel, Congressman Krmentrout and Ex Congressman James H.

Hopkins. The Democratic candidates were promptly conducted to the speakers platform. Chairman Cooper bad bees expected speak, but ia pursuance of a determination sot to be caught saying anything that might be utilized by the Democrats he had disappeared. General Osborne was not as fearful of a slip of the tongue and appeared among the Democratic candidates. Worthy Al outer Rhone presided at tbe meeting.

In Introducing Lieutenant Governor Black he congratulated the Grangers ou the large attendance, tho seats in the pavilion being crowded. As Candidate Black got up to speak he was applauJed. Head dressed the audionce as Follow Grangers," stating that he himself had boen a member of the order for twelve years. He said he had never missed an opportunity to discuss the rights and principles of the great organization. Ho would not make any reference to political matters, as be was not inclined to mix his politics with his agriculture.

Two years ego he had made a carefully prepared speech at the grove and ho was willtug to stand by the principles be then enunciated. (Iu this speecn Black took decided ground In favor of auti disoriminatlon and caustically arraigned monopolies.) The Lieutenant Governor then gave the opinion he had of the Patrons of Husbandry by reading an editorial written by'bint for the Now York Sun in 1871. The article had Its Inspiration in a great grarge gathering at Me chnnicsburg. The Granger wus described to be as mythical as a Georgia darkey. Ho was able to exert a powerful Influence on the body politic if he exerted himsolf.

It was predicted that he would combine with men who would take care of his interests. To the Grangers ho would prove an unmixed good and to tbe speculator an untnixod eviL He would willingly go into politics, compel an adjustment ot things needing correction. He would rather be the instrument in creating a new party or would dictate to the old parties. Subsequent events had not fully Justified the opinion then entertained. The number of Grangers had not increased ns he had supposed it would; they hod not met bin expectation as to political Independence.

One worthy member ef the order (referring to Representative Rhone) had boen sont to the Legislature aud a few others besides himself had crept into official life. As Lieutenant Governor he thought he had made a record of which no brother Granger need be ashamed, and if advanced one step higher he believed his record would be kept white and pure. Mr. Rhone suggested that Chairman Hensel mount the platform, aud that gentleman created much merriment by stating that he had, sat In his seat anxiously awaiting the call made on him. After Jocular allusion to B.

K. Jamison, who was in tbe audience. Congressman IS mon trout and others aud a little badinage with Colonol Pioliet, Hensel said the Democratic party of Pennsylvania, by its record and by its character and official career of its candidates, stood pledged to enforce the fundamental principles of the Stale Constitution. Mr. Rhone said that he did not want tbe meeting to Do Democratic altogether and therefore called on General Osborne to make a speech.

Osborne said he wus a bad annex to any show. He did not refer to politics, but complimented the furmers very highly, stating that no man could make him believe they could organize for any other purpose than the good ot the country. He was willing to abide by anytiiin they might do. Stevenson, Democratic candidate for Con gross at large, said he wan not a farmer and was inclined to admit that the declaration that he was not a good politician was correct, lie, too, liberally praised tho farmers. William Breunon, Democratic candidate Tor Auditor General, said he knew nothing of agriculture, but that his constituents had felt the effects of unequal taxation, a senttmeut which was vigorously applau led.

The duty of the Grangers was to see that by their ballots tho taxes of the State were moro equally apportioned than under existing statutes and that tho provision in the Constitution against discrimination, be enforced. He pledged the co operatiou of the laboring people with the farmers iu the enforcement of the principle? ot anti discrlintuaiiou. Congressman Lrmeutrout, in response to sevoral questions by Mr. Pioliet, said he was all rlht on the oleomargarine question and firmly opposed to free wool. Colonol Pioliet suggested that the Grangers vote for those who would see thut Justice was done them.

The tarmors were Just as much on titled to exemption from taxation as the manufacturers. Colonel Piollet's remarks closed the mooting, after which Lieutenant Governor Black and party left tho grove In the special train in which they arrived. The Grangers' picnic practically ended to day. PROHIBITION NOMINEES. Candidate For Cltjr Offleea bj aa Kathnalatifcie Convention Tbe Prohibition County Convention, which met at tbe Sunday Breakfast Hall, on Twelfth street, last evening, was la many respects unlike any meeting of the third party ever held in Philadelphia.

It wag more largely attended tban any of Its predecessors, tbe delegates showed a more thorough knowledge of practical politics, all present wero radiant with hope of coming acbierements and there was a general air ot get oat of tbe way or you'ro Uable to bzixoTer by Uiii train about the whole proceedings. It was after 8 o'clock wben the convention was called to order, but before that hour some four hundred zealous advocates of prohibition, Including many women, had gathered in the hall and were informally discussing the coming campaign. Among tbe prominent workers in tbe cause noticed were Samuel P. Godwin, Daniel Leeds, Dr. Samuel Daggy, J.

ones. Dr. Durant, John 9. Fennell, Dr. K.

IT. Eirby, John Bald ere ton. Rev. John Meredith, M. D.

Buckwell, Samuel Garrlgues, John W. Barr, Godfrey Stringer, Joshua Bally and A. A. Barker, candidate for Lieutenant Governor on the Prohibition ticket and chairman of the Prohibition State central committee. Proceedings were opened by Dr.

Samuel Daggy, chairman of the county committee, who rapped the convention to order and announced a campaign eong, "It is Coming, It is Coming; Hail, Ail Hail, the Glorious Day," which was sung by a trfo of male voices. This was followed with a fervent prayer for tbe cause and its candidates by Rev. Dr. Meredith. Chairman Daggy then said We have mot for the important business of advancing the Prohibition cause and selecting candidates for tho various county oMcob.

Only suitable men About be selected. No man should be complimented. We must put Prohibition In front and all friends behind and pushing." Joshua L. Bally was chosen permanent chairman, aud proceeded to the platform amid a storm of applause. Daniel Leeds was made secretary.

Cbairman Baily promptly announced that he would take the words of the gentleman who had proposed bim for presiding officer as a text. We have mot here for business aud stick to Ik What is the pleasure of the convention 7" Rev. Dr. Moredith and A. H.

Bryant wero appointed a committee on credentials. While they were deliberating the phttform adopted by the Slate Prohibition Convention at Harrisburg was ordered read. Tbe reading was frequomly interrupted by clapping ot hatnia and other demonstrations of approval. At tbe close it was unanimously declared the platform of the Philadelphia County Convention. Chairman Bailyaald: "I was at Harrisburg last week aud met the Wolfe and he followed me to town and I haven't taken a dislike to him yet.

We had a grand convention in fact, I have attouded many conventions and novor saw ajme with so many clean faces. The committee on credentials here reported that there were present 151 delegates. Many others who oamein after tbe committee had retired were admitted to seats aud qualitlod. A committee, consisting of Dr. W.

Kirby, J. B. Jones, S. P. Godwin, Benjamin Kepnerand Godfrey Stringer, was appointed to submit nominations.

In Its absence A. A. Barker, the white haired war horse of Prohibition, now candidate of the party for Lieutenant Governor, was iutroducod and said: I think by this time tbe absurd notion that the Prohibition party is a party of one idea has exploded. The platform adopted at llarrisburg settled that mistake. But wo have a great fight before us.

It is a fight against whisky and tbe liquor traffic, lam glad tbe Liquor League and the Prohibitionists agree upon one thing. Ihe league mot iu Philadelphia the other day and announced its opposition to high license. We are opposed to high iicenso or any other kind of license." The venerable speaker then proceeded to arraign the Republican party for pauderlng to the liquor traffic, but abruptly closed to boar from the committee on nominations. Dr. Kirby, chairman of the committee, said that It had declined to make nominations for Jtidgefl, but presented Franklin Swayne, of the Seventh ward, for District Attorney; Theodore Barrett for Clerk of the Court of Quarter Sessions, and Dr.

A. C. Kembaugh for Coroner. The names wore considered seriatem aud unanimously ratified. D.

II. Garrett, of the Twenty ninth ward, raised a small breeze by insisting that tho convention proceed to nominate candidates for Judges. Messrs. God will, Gibbons, Jones and the chairman argued against such a course, citing the fact that tho two old parties bad set litem a commendable precedent In lifting tho judiciary out of tbe miro of politics. It was docided, after a thorough discussion, to not nominate A motlou to Indorse tho old udges as candidates was also tabled.

The selection of members of the Stato committee was then proceeded with, tbe followlug wards having agrood upon their representatives First, Dr. (1. E. Bispham Second, F. G.

Porcivat; Fourth, JoHne 11. Tatem Sixth, S. J. Brown; Seventh, Franklin Swnyno Eighth, Samuel B. Godwin; Ninth, Joshua L.

The State committee meets at Harrisburg on Friday next to inaugurate ihe campaign in earnest, and the leaders here said last night that Philadelphia county would be thoroughly organized for work at once.

Price 5 cents i2 per annum by mail. Mayor Smith and Mr. McClurc. Mayor Smith (should have kept his head cool and his judgment level.

He is not now dealing with the denizens of Chuck Pur nell's dive, nor with the criminal classes which hove been compelled to cower as they wore at once protected and robbed by his subordinates, of which he has had line upon line in the publio journals. He has been summoned to answer the gravest charges of malfeasance in office, and the charges have been preferred not only by the editor of this journal, but by formal arraignment from tho proper accounting officer of tho government, and everything luis boon done with the degree of dignity and order due his high office that ho seems utterly to forget in his impotent gusis of hoodlum passion. Mr. JlcClnre acted with every measure of renpect to Councils, to its committee and to public justice, and just as he would havo acted had he been dealing with a Judge. The sealed envelope coulaiued only the names of individual witnesses and tho brief reason for withholding their names from the public until the law commanded them to testify.

That precaution was taken, as will be proved, if desired, by one or more of th witnesses, because either over zealous friends of the Mayor or persons badly advised by him, had importuned or attempted to intimidate witnesses to silence. As the" i was no tribunal competent to issue a lawful summons to the witnesses when the letter was written as it was not certain that a committee with such powers would be appointed, and as such committee, if appointed, would have no knowledge of the witnesses who can support the grave charge of pervorting oity monoys to Mayor Smith's use by changing chocks payable to the order of the City Treasurer, the names were very properly sent under seal, to be delivered as soon as there was a oompotont tribunal to call for the testimony, or to be returned to Mr. McClure if not needed. Mr. MoCluro could have sent that sealed envelope to Mayor Smith.

Under all ordinary circumstances it would be proper to furnish the Chief Magistrate of a great city with the witnesses and ovidence which would fasten official crime upon a municipal officer, but there are peculiar circumstances in this case which seemed to make it inexpedient to chargo Mayor Smith with the names of the witnesses and tho nature of their testimony. It is not common for a prosecutor or for the District Attorney to a list of witnosses and summary of their evidence, to a burglar before his arrest or even before his trial. There would bo the refinement of courtesy in such civil interchanges of information bo tweon tho law and crime; but it has never yet reached tho dignity of established legal etiquette between juslico ond the dock, and, being conservative in his ways, Mr. McClure did not seek the distinction of establishing a now and entirely novel precedent in such eases. The information was sent just where it properly belonged, and it was properly protected from criminal official power until the arm of the law could be extended to its protection.

There is the most perfect harmony sentiment between Mayor Smith and Mr. McClure as to the entiro diversity of their "political and other methods and prac tices, well known in this community and elsewhere." They are as wido apRrt r.s tho poles in both aim and effort, and each has gained some repute because of the exceptional success ho has achieved in his special "methods and practices." Mayor Smith lias applied to his own nee, as a rulo, the monoys of tho city entrusted to his official euro ho has even so applied to his own use city moneys paid in chocks drawn to the order of the City Treasurer he has applied to his own use thousands of dollars last year and this year, paid for city licenses, and has knowingly toloraled the lawless business of unlicensed houses, with their bonds and insurances invalid, for nearly all of 1885 and for most of 1880, to enable him to enjoy the expenditure of tho monoy he has tolerated gamblors and policy swindlers when he has been publicly admonishod time and again that his authority was sold for monoy tribute from crime; ho had no original accounts of city monoys recoivod to offer in the audit of his receipts and disbursements and had new books made up for tho occasion, log. ically omitting payments ho had roceivod for the city he has lawlessly lavished city monoys upon favorites in the names of men cither unborn or unknown as publio servants, and when he is called npon to prosont his receipts and disbursements of oily moneys, with tho official opinion of the City Solicitor commanding him to do so, he skulks from the presentation of a publio account that ia publio property and must be an opon book to ovory citizen. It is probably the delusion of the sanctity of his scaled publio accounts that makes him so frantically protest against scaled envelopes not addressed to him. Mr.

McClure conld have had part and lot with Mayor Smith iu his peculiar methods and practices" had he not been wedded by long accepted methods and practices" to a directly antagonistic policy. Mayor Smith was a frequent anil Importunate guest at Mr. McCluro's office when he was perfecting his plans to become a candidate for Mayor, and they mot only when he was Mr. MoCluro'i voluntary visitor. There was not only every assnrunco of Integrity and reform on the part of the then would be Mayor, but every generous proffer of personal and official reciprocity.

Thence each went his wayj Mayor Smith to hit This is the last day of the annual display of tho Pennsylvania Horticultural Society at Horticultural Hall, and those who have not already visited it should not fail to do so to day. The display is an exceedingly creditable one and tho society should not bo coin polled to suffer loss, as it did last year, from insufficient patronage. This display has become ono of the institutions of Philadelphia, this being the fifty seventh year ot tho existence of the society.

It Is not made for a money making purpose and the citizens should see to it that the outlay necessary to provide so croditable a display is made good. Twonty flve cents is a very small price to pay for a sight of this beautiful array of plants and flowers. There is an idea abroad in this country that the saloon will have to go out of politios almost as soon as it makes any extra effort to got in. There is a vacancy in tho Post Office at Westmoreland, N. but it will hardly bo necessary for any one to grow apprehensive and imagine the country in danger because one man went out without being removed.

To begin with, the man didn't resign to got ahoad of the ejecting powor. He merely died, presumably because he couldn't holp it, and thore aro already ten applicants for his place. Thore was a timo when the future of this country was undecided, but ovory day now brings additional evidence that its course is onward and upward.

Hator Smith need not send a sealed envelope to any tribunal giving the names of the witnosses he would havo to summon to sustain his declaration that very many pooplo would not bolievo Mr.

McClure when under oath. How many such poople there are in this community depends wholly upon tho number of ballot thieves, pauper robbers, public and private em bozzlers, tributo bled gamblers and policy swindlers, fence shop policemen, city pay roll bummers, and illegal tee gathorors he could summon within his jurisdiction and protection. They would be solid with him in that line, and there tho procession would ond. Piollin M. Squire thinks it is the blowing up of another Hell Qato that has brought General Newton to tho front.

The blooming idiot who firmly believes that the last earthquake was due to the influence of a Democratic administration now has the floor, and whou ho shall have subsided the man who thinks that civil sorvice reform did it will be entitled to havo his little say. Tho logio involvod makes the case one in whioh modesty will not pay and the speakers shouldn't hesitato to demand recognition, though a sooro or two shout at once. As yet both parties spell prohibition with a small but think it with one several sizes larger. They claim now that a woman has finally been found who will jump from tho Brooklyn bridge, and a secret move is said to havo been inaugurated with the object in view of having her make tho leap. As might have boen ex peotod the society for the provontion of cruelty to animals or some such philanthropic body has already interposed its objection, although soo ond thought will show tho folly of any such objection.

It may be that this world would miss tho woman who was willing to mako such an attempt for no earthly purpose but notoriety or money but it doosu't look that way now. Lot the jumpers jump. "The Blaine organs will soon begin to hold Bayard responsible for the weather. In advance of any claim put forth by tho Chicago Anarchists to the effect that the recent earthquake was duo to injustice toward those Illustrious citizens, it ought to be noted that the shock was almost imparooptiblo at Chicago. This, it Is true, may not inteiforo with the mere making of the claim, but it will have more or less affect in aiding the publio mind to a satisfactory judgmont in the case.

The bottle as well as the barrel la becoming too prominent in politics. While tiik special organs all agroo that Mayor Smith has bad tho worst possible advisors, none will doubt that tho Mayor's letter to President Lawronce criticizing Mr. McClure, was written wholly by himsolf. as his advisors may have been, thoro eould not be any lawyer who rise? oven to the plane of a shyster, so superlatively idiotic as to write Buch a lettor to Jar tho dlgnlllnd and sober proceedings impeaching the Chief Magistrate of a great city.

A meeting of Philadelphia citizens yesterday began in a practical way the work of rendering assistance to the unfortunate sufferers from the late earthquake at Charleston. The sum of $3,000 was placed at the disposal of Mayor Covington, and a committee of fifteen well known citizens was appointed to receive further contributions for this purpose. The character of the committee is a sufficient guarantee that the money raised will be properly transmitted to the needy and suffering residents of the Btricken city. The response should be generous. The misfortunes, which seldom come singly to individuals or communities, soom to have come in troops to Charleston and its unfortunate residents.

Devastated by war, ravaged by fire, swept by the cyclone aud shaken to pieces by the earthquake, one woe has trodden so closely on tho heels of another that the unfortunate inhabitants of this Southern city have hardly been allowed breathing space between the appalling disasters that have befallen them within the last quarter of a century. Tho admirable self helpful spirit displayed by tho people of Charleston cannot bo too much commended. With all their misfortunes they have never asked for aid, but have preferred to repair their own losses without appealing to the charity of their more fortunate neighbors. Only a little more than ayearago, when a cyclone dovasfated an important portion of their beautiful city, they declined the aid freoly tendered by Northern cities and resolutely sot themselves to the task of rebuilding tho demolished structures and providing for their owu destitute and shelterless citizens. But there is a limit to human courage and endurance.

That limit would seem to have been reached in the case of the terrified and homeless people of the ruined city, and although they havo not appealed for aid in sot terms, their multiplied misfortunes appeal for them too loudly to pass unheeded. Their misfortune might have been ours may yet be ours. The earthquake which ruined Charleston shook Philadelphia sufficiently to teach its inhabitants that as an agent of destruction it is resistless. Our citizens should attest their gratitudo for their own fortunate csoape by generously donating of their abundanoe to their unfortunate neighbors. Let the giving be liberal and prompt, for the need is urgent.

Three thousand dollars is a good boginning, but it is only a drop in the bucket to tho amount that will be required to relieve the distress caused by tho appalling disaster. Othor cities are already moving in tho good work, and Philadelphia should hasten tp maintain its woll ostablished reputation for deods of charity. The Meaning of It. In his desire to retain his throne Alexandor, Prince of Bulgaria, Bhowed as much humility toward the Czar as Uriah IToep was accustomed to show toward Mastor Copporfield. His only roturn lor his humiliation was a gruff rebuke, which made it all the more humiliating.

Yon wero kicked ut," the Czar answered in effect, "and you should have stnid out if you did not want to be kicked again." The kicking is likoly to come beforo many days, for tho imperial conspirators of Europe find, it necossary to crush an insignificant ruler iu order to furthor their ambitious and tyrannical designs against the growing spirit of freedom in Great Britain and France. The situation in Ireland and in Bulgaria ia almost identioal. In Ireland nn English Tory administration is seeking to provoke the people into a condition of disorder that will servo as a pretext for etornly repressive measures. In Bulgaria Russia is persistently fomenting civil strife as on oxcuso for suppressing it. Iu both casos tho intent is tho same tho enslavement of the people It has been difficult to understand what interest Germany and Austria can have in Kussiu's dosigus upon Bulgaria.

That interest becomes clearer as the scheme dovolops. Not only are the small independencies and suzoraiutios, which in the opinion of the three Emperors still disfigure the map of Europe, to be nbsorbod, but France and England are to be humbled for allowing tho supremacy of the poople. Hostilities in Bulgaria must almost inevitably precipitate a war in which imperialism will contend for tho overthrow of popular government. If the attitude of three empires toward Bulgaria doos not mean this Germany and Austria must have become the willing of Russia.

The Ottawa dispatch to the effect that six imperial war ships are on the way to Halifax to assist in enforcing the fishery clauses of tho treaty of 1818 Is discredited at the State and Navy Departments. Such a force for such a purpose. It Is said, would be a prodigal waste of means. Very likoly a British squadron is on its way, as usual this time of the year, to thoaa waters. Formerly the squadron summered In the Wost Indies, but the dauger from yellow fover led to the custom of making the summer rendezvous in Northern waters, as is tho case with our own vessels.

such is the fact it Is believed to have no international sig ulllcauce. The negotiations between this government aud Great Britain with ro.ipect to the three mile limit whether from headland to headland or following the sinuosities of tho coast and toother dotalls of the fishery quosLlou are progressing slowly to be sure, but with entire cordiality. Thoy have been somewhat retarded by tbe changes of government in Groat Britain aud the necessity of starting in anew with successive administrations. A West India Hurrlemie. The gentlemen composing the "West India cricket team, now at the Colonnade Hotel, have received intelligence of a terrilc hurricane which Bwept tho Ialand of Jamaica, about ten days ago, unroofing houses, destroying shipping and doing: an alarming amount of damage, though, fortunately, not taking any Uvea.

The most unfortunate result Is the destruction of thousands of banana and cocoa nut treps, a destruction so complete, it Is said, that not only is the crop of (tie present season aim oat utterly ruined, but the young suckers" torn out and wanned away, so that in all probability thore will be very llttlecrop noxt season.
