The New Yoik .Sim, reminds the colored voters that the Republicans give them a few smill dikes In the South where theli votes really don't amount to anything, but that in New fork, Ohio and Indiana, where the two parties aie evenly balanced, the colored voters hold the balance of pow er, but the Republicans never give them an oflice. There are at the present time 02,400 post-offices in the United States, an in creasa of 3,4ul during the past ten years. The increase during the past was the jrreatest in our history, and about ten t mes greater than the entire number of psUfllces in the country when the Qr3t postmaster general, Ben Franklin took charge of the Depart ment. The Pottsville Kriuhhcan, (Ili). says : The Pottsville Democracy and many Republicans received the an nouncement of Patlison's nomination for Governor with great satisfaction. I'attison will lose some Democratic votes in this county on "account of his entire respectability, but he will receive anywhere from 2,000 to 3.000 Republi ran votes to make up for it. The McKinley bill, Bays the Keo kuk 12'uhlknn, cuts cff the sale by Western and Northern farmers of ?32, 0)0,000 worth of f irm products annual ly to Canada.

It is worthy of note says the New Ycrk W'jrld, that Senator Plumb, a Republican, and Representative IIol min. a Democrat, should within the same week have advocated an Income tax as a means of relieving the neces saries of the peop!e of their preeent burden of taxation. Mr. Holman declared that a "judi cious income tax. which would reach fairly and justly the great private es tates our class legislation has created, would do a great deal toward prevent ing reckless appropriations." For, as he argued, "when the wealth of the country bears a reasonable portion of the tax that swells to 100,000.000 a year, owners of great private estates will begin to see the value of frugal and honest government-" Sj loog as a poor man's tax on his sunar, clothing, tinware and crockery, tools ana machinery, and on all his thief necessaries, is much greater rela tively and in many cases as great actu ally as the tax on the rich man for the same articles, taxation is not equal, and the rich man can afford to be indiffer ent to National extravagance. A graded income tax, exempting incomes less than f 10,000 and increasing with each 53000 above that amount, would not only be the most just tax but it would, as Mr. Holman suggests. inteiest the influential class in secur ing economical government. The Pittsburg Christian Advocate says of the nomination of Ex-Governor Pattlson by the Democrats : "The party ia this State when lines are drawn is in hopeless minority, and it was felt that there was no chance for success uulesj they could break in on the Re publican ranks. To reach this end they nominated Governor Pattlson. He scaceeded once before when there was discontent in the opposite party. He made a good record as Governor, and it was hoped he might poll enough Republican votes to elect him. How much foundation there is ror such a hope will be detei mined when the bal lots are counted. In the meantime we have no opinion to express. We sim ply state facts. We do affirm, however, that no party could pat forward a bet ter man for public office than Governor Pattison, and if the parties would al ways present Such men the voters could have nothing In that direction of which to complain. It must be regarded high tribute to the voters of Pennsyl vania that a great minority party finds the only hope of success in the nomin ation of such a candidate. All parties should be made fee! that they can never safely do less than present their best. Rei-resentative Farquhar of New York introduced a bill in the House at Washington on Monday to creat? a commission to be known as the United States commission of the world's Congress of labor to consist of nine members to be appointed ty the Presi dent. It suggests thai the President shall appoint two of these members from the National Farmers' alliance and the rest shall be named by the American Federation of Labor and the Knights of Labor, but no two of them shall te from the same S ate. These commissioners shall receive an annual salary or 53,100, and their terms of office shall expire December 31, !Si5. J It shall be the daty of the commission ers to discuss labor in all its phases. The commissioners are authorized to in vite, through the President, delegates of foreign countries to take part in the conference. The Fhilapelpbia Lednr, (Republi can,) calls Reed's Congress "The Reckless Congress." "The Speaker's rules," it declares, "were adopted upon the plea that they would facilitate bus iness. How have they facilitated busi ness in any other sense than that they have facilitated bad business ? They were adopted in order to place the busi ness of the House under the control of the majority of the House this is, the majority as counted by the Speaker. Well, now that that consumation has been brought about, and the business is under that control, has the House achieved anything to which the Repub lican party will point with pride in 1S02, or even in 1S91 ? The woolen manufacturers and their operatives, and the consumers of cloth ing, carpets and bedding, says the Phila delphia TtUyraj.h, Hep.) were all alike sacrificed for the advantage of the wool growers. That such a bill baa begotten discontent, grumbling, complaints and desertions from the party made respon sible for it is not only natural, but that it is should do so was inevitable. Even if it should fail in the Senate the mem ory or what the House did with respect to it is likely to wreck tbe party at the polls in both the Congressional and Presidential elections. Pro ram. y there ia no doubt thai European crops will be short. Hot and cold weather has done the work.

A iirATcn from London on Wed nesday says : The Impression prevails there among people Interested In the Cnancul prospects of the Argentine re public that peace will shortly be estab lished in large part through tbe agency of the foreign representatives at Buenos Ayres, whose interests lie in a speedy restoration of order, bat who have not been able thus far to make themselves heard very effectively, so fierce has the contest teen. IJotii the Minnesota and Nebraska Republican State Conventions met last week. No resolutions were adopted by either Convention endorsing the admin istration of l'rtsident Harrison. The Bradford .St-er, Republican, auyi : "Thera ia no U3e denylrs that tLtie uiu-t Lc some tall hustling." A Call te Pemocrats. From a speech by Staail J. TJldea at the IwtmocntU Stat Coaveatioa it Kochoster In WTl The Democracy advances to fight anew the battle against centralism and corruption to which it was first led by Thomas Jefferson in the nation and by George Clinton in the State of New Yoik. The equilibrium of onr whole politi cal system ia in danger of being over thrown and a despotic and corrupt cen tralism established. The whole value of the arrangement by which onr world is kept in its place in the solar system is the balance between the op posing forces. It wonld matter little to ns which of these forces should be allowed to prevail. If the centrifugal tendency should dominate, onr planet would shoot madly into tbe realms of endless space, far away from tbe source of heat and life, nntil everr living thing upon its surface wonld perish. If the centripetal tendency should prevail, tbe earth wonld men with Inconceiva ble velocity toward tbe son. nntil it woulJ be engulfed in tbe burning mass. So it is with the adjustment of powers between tbe State and Federal govern ments ; disunion and centralization are equally fatal to good government. Dis union wonld generate tbe centralism of military despotism in tbe separate States ; centralism attempted on areas and population so vast would break tbe nart asunder, and fill onr continent, as it has filled every other, with rival na tions. Our wise ancestors devised the only system possible to avoid these opposite evils. They formed a Federal Govern ment to manage our foreign relations, to maintain peace and unity between tbe States, and to administer a few ex ceptional functions of common Interest; ! and they left tbe great rea!dary mass of eovercmental power to tbe State. The creed of the Democratic party Is comprised In two Ideas : First, to limit as much as possible all govern mental power, enlarging always and everywhere the domain of individual judgment and action ; secondly, to throw back the governmental powers necessary to be exercised as mocb as possible upon the States and tbe local! ties, approaching la every case the in dividuals to be affected. These ideas dominate over the Dem ocratic party, and find In it their best representative. The opposite ideas, to meddle with everything properly be longing to the individual, and to cen tralize all governmental powers, express the tendencies of the Republican party. Under this Inspiration the Federal government la rapidly seizing upon all the powers of hatran socle t v. It has assumed to regulate the suffrage and threatens to take the control of all elections. I oppose centralism because It is in compatible with elvi! liberty. I oppose centralism because It creates an irresponsible power and an irrespon sible power is always corrupt. A gov ernment ruling all tbe affairs of indi viduals and localities, from the Atlan tic to th Pacific, from tbe great lakes to tbe Golf of Mexico, wonld be the most incompetent for what It wonld undertake, the most opresslve. tho most Irresponsible, and tbe most corrupt gov em roent of which history affords any example. Doing Up Delamater. Georg Wallace Delamater Is hard at work to keep enongh of the 80,000 Re publican majority of Pennsylvania to gether to elect himself Governor ; bat be isn't working in the right quarter. If he can't throttle Tom Iteed and halt the McKinley tariff bill, with Its appalling increases of t.xes on the nec essaries of industry and of life, and the force election bill, with its assured dis turbance of bnsiness North and South, he may a well retire from the fight and take to the woods at once. He needn't waste time among tbe business men of Philadelphia while revolutionary surges from Washington knock two business men out of Una for every one Delamater can persuade to fall Irto line. If be wonld stop the re volt he mut stop tbe fountain of revolt, and that fountain is Tom Reed and his revolutionary followers. Tbr can be no harmony or unity of Republican action in Pennsylvania while increased taxes on labor are given instead of promised reduction or taxes, and while a crusade of wantom "action al strire. at a cost of millions of dollars for each election Is proclaimed aa tbe policy of the party. If Delamater can't nait ibis midsummer madness be mast receive in, retributive blow in Novem ter. rhila. Times. Senator Quay's Boast.
