The President has also named Ben

tary of State.
One of the Swiss Cantons has a law
prohibiting the use of tobacco among
minors
Good for the Swiss. And now we
world like to see a similar law enacted
for Pennsylvania; so that Ridgway
might thereby be benefited; for of all
the places on earth Ridgway ezcclls in
the number of infants addicted to the
habit of using tobacco. Talk about
crusades againBt whiskey why not
against tobacco the incentive to drink?
Time is money. We understand
that Judge Orvis computes the hourly
expence of our court while in session at
$25 per hour, and fines defaulting ju
rors and witnesses accordingly. If
either of the parties indicated detain the
court fifteen minutes, the fine will be
$5, and in proportion for any longer time
A similar schedule will be fixed for at
torneys, plaintiffs and defendants at the
next term, except upon a higher scale.
This timely and financial arrangement
will, no doubt, result in much good, it
will keep all in the court-room during
the session, and expedite business amaz
ingly if enforced. Clearfield Repub
lican. Good idea, and one that could be
adopted to good advantage in Elk
County.

. Philadelphia Carpet Weaving.
The Ledger gives some figures show
ing the importance of carpet weaving
as an industiial interest. For twenty
five years it has been steadily increasing,
until within the last eight years the ag.
gregate amount of ingrain carpets made
there exceeds the total of similar goods
manufactured olsewhere throughout the
United States. There are now in
Philadelphia abont 250 faotorics, with
4000 looms, and befote the strike the
production averaged. 14,000 pieces of
125 yards each, or 1,750,000 yards per
month, or 17,000,000 yards for tho ten
months that the factories are in opera
tion. InthebuRy season about 6,000
persons are employed iu the factories
directly, independent of the dryers and
others remotely interested, involving a
monthly outlay for wages of about $300,
000. Tho amount of capital invested
may be estimated from the lact that the
yearly sale of carpets alouo, reach over
$15,000,000.
Oub Population, 20,087. Tho
appcaiance of tho City Directory hns
been eagerly looked for in order that we
might know how fast wo have grown
during the past four years. Tho in.
crease is about 0,100, and although it it
not so great as many had supposed, we

They show that Erie is a thoroughly

we are rapidly assuming that position

enterprise entitles us to take. Of course
our growth from 1870 to 1880 will be
much greater during the last half ol

A Bllbsing in Diuuise. A New
England philospher has discovered
that tho dull times aro a blessing in
disgui.-e, because "there is probably no
othur way of checking the feverish iu-
tensity of American busiuiss life, aud
compelling the busy workers to lake it
easy, than by just puch an experience of
dull limes as we are now going through."
It is always well, says the Philadelphia
Ledycr, to look on the bright side of
every vicissitude of hie. Most Amen-
can workers take less time for recreation
than is good for theni, but few, except
those ot the "Miconl er" class can find
much of a blessing in dull times Such
men may wait for somethiug to "turn
up," but the great majority of merchants
and machauics will bo trying to turn it
up themselves. Moreover, there are
thousauds upon thousands ot workers to
.
whom work is a necessity. . Ihey will
