FOR THE INSANE. 20 EPRESENTATIVE Plummer'g forecast, that the present Legislature will make adequate provision for the remedy of the disgraceful conditions which char acterize the asylums for the insane in Pennsylvania, is welcome. As chairman of the Appropriations Committee of the lower house, Mr. Plummer may he presumed to know what he is talking about. Therefore, we look with some hope to a substantial beginning in an effort to wipe out a black shame. For some years it has been known and set forth to the best of the ability of a few that the heart-rending plight of the helpless, mind-darkened wards of the State, as the result of the neglect machine-ruled Legislatures. The tale then told—a recital of unadorned facts—was one of almost incredible overcrowding, of disregard, com pulsory so far as the custodians of the institutions were concerned, of advanced methods of care and treatment, and of dilapidated and unsanitary buildings. Some efforts have been made since that time to amel iorate these conditions. Hut they have been insufficient to more than meet the increase of pressure upon the asy lums, so that to-day the prevailing state of affairs shows virtually no improvement. The poor creatures, whose comfort, under every rule of charity and honor, should be the first concern of the Commonwealth, are still huddled in places where many residents of Philadelphia would re fuse to house a dog. There isn't an institution of this public sort in the State that is not taxed far beyond its capacity, and in several of them two, and even three per sons occupy the space demanded by one. We repeat, as wo have said here, and have often said before, that the proper care of the inmates of these asy lums should bo the first concern of the State. Nothing can appeal more strongly to the heart of the manly man or the womanly woman than the hopeless helplessness ot these unfortunates. Cursed by diseased mentality, de prived of freedom for the welfare of the community, failure to provide them with physical comfort is a crime. In an impoverished State some excuse might be found for such asylums as these of Pennsylvania. In this State, free from debt, and boastfully proud of a surplus in bank which, year in and year out, exceeds 510,000,000, there is not only no excuse, but the deliberate and protracted refusal to afford the the indigent insane decent care and quarters is an iniquity inadequately dealt with by the most blistering condemnation. The indicated attitude of this Legislature holds out hope of better things. It appears that a majority of the House Appropriations Committee stands with tiie chair man for "generous treatment of the insane, feeble-minded and epileptics." There should be no fear in either House or Senate that "generous treatment" can be too generous or too speedily applied. WINTER. jp' MERSON says that every sailboat looks more graceful than the one you are on. Most men believe that there was more happiness in former times, and that a homo in any place other than that in which one happens to live would be more delight ful. Wo rail at the climate. In August we ideal ize February, and in February we persude ourselves that August is not so bad. The Danville people would fain change places with those of Now Orleans about this time in the year. Many of us who live in the versatile climate of tho Middle States would lie content to have the year composed wholly of Mays or Septembers, but, happily, nature tloos not consult tho whims of rheu matic humanity, and in these latitudes, at least, gives us the succession of seasons and the infinite variety of weather which does not pall on the healthy mind and the sound body. One of our wisest phi losophers finds joy when the snow-drifts are ton feet deep and every stream is held in the frozen grip of winter: "Come, beautiful winter, with snows that last— deep, pure, solid; that will not, depart till April serves its warmth, and bluebirds warble softly in the cherry trees, and bouncing robins make the morning and evening melodious." It is not creditable to faulty human nature that we are more contented when other people are miser able. Some such feeling, we fear, reconciles us to winter if we have a comfortable home, a full larder and a roaring tire. We delight in contrasts when wo have tho better portion. If we are snug our selves, we compare with snug satisfaction our posi tion with that of tho unfortunates who must face tho blast. . If we have had a hard winter here, they have had it worse in Nova Scotia, where the rail roads have gone out of business. It is satisfactory to know, according to a voracious dispatch, that somewhere out west tho snow Hakes fell ono day "as big as saucers." The winter is yielding, though we are too stupid to discover it. Tho Bangor (Mo.) News says:"This week wo saw the bluejays on the tops of the tall trees, and heard them crying, 'Thief! Thief!' and the New England tradition, handed down for generations, is that when tho bluejays come the backbone of the winter is broken. THE mass meeting held in the opera house Wed nesday evening was enthusiastic in every respect but a crowded bouse and contributions toward the good cause, lhe former would have attained to mammoth propor tions had anyone thought the occasion was going to be such a grand, patriotic one; and the latter, of course, will come right along now, for it was generally understood that money was not to be requested—and it was not. But the precious metal is what will talk the loudest in the accom plishment of the erection of our proposed monument. Mr. John IT. Goeser will receive all contributions, large or small and devote it to that which will be erected in honor of those who so lioblv sacrificed their lives, their homes, their all, that we might enjoy the blessed, present privi leges of citizenship in the greatest, grandest country in the world today. We pray thee, be liberal, Montour county, as was stated by Mr. Scarlet, Esq., in his address, was represented in every good cause of our nation's victories by patriots who braved for right and liberty, and why should we not erect a monument; one tiiat we can be just ly proud of, too. MORE news, better paper and more up-to-date matter than any other newspaper in Montour county. It reaches the best families and commands the most respect. The Intelligencer is the paper of these parts for ull adver tising purposes, too. AN Ohio man was punished by a severe fine for giving a pint of whiskey to his horse. If he would have given it to some man he would have been called a "good fellow." JOHN L. SULLIVAN is still a loser. First he lost his muscle, then his voice, later his fortune and his voice is gone. His thirst remains with him. AN egg famine is the lastest announcement. The barn stormers may look for a better season. OF course the peach bubs were killed. They al ways arc in the middle of winter. ALL MUCH ALIKE ItJ E are accustomed to laugh at the actress who ill loses her diamonds for advertising purposes, but she is really only the crude exemplifica tion of the modern spirit. There are others who arc quite as eager for publicity and even more ad roit in securing it. We—many of us, at least- have so lost the conservatism of earlier dnvs Ihn f wo not only try to get in the glare of liic c„.u::ini our selves but we even strive to put our children there, unmindful of the harm that this does to the imma ture mind. Formerly we considered our children a& something sacred, to be shielded from the public gaze; now wo furnish their pictures for publication whenever a newspaper or a magazine courts pop ularity with a children's beauty show, and we send notices of their little entertainments to the society editors. If we have a child who is somewhat pre cocious, who dances or sings or speaks well, we are as anxious about her press notices as the manager of any prima donna. And the child becomes self-con scious, conceited and altogether spoiled. Almost without exception, it is distinctly hurtful: it gives the child an exaggerated idea of its own importance and makes it vain and generally unbearable. Hut the child is not the one I wish to discuss. The child, in such cases, is the victim of foolish parents; it does not seek notoriety itself —at least, not in the beginning. Later it may ape its elders, but its "fame" is forced upon it at first. The el dors are the ones who deliberately seek the publicity that is beneficial to them in a business way or grati fying to their personal vanity. Some of them would scorn the imputation that they are advertising them selves, but how else can it lie truthfully characteriz ed ; What else would make it possible for profes sional ''publicity promoters" to succeed ! Surpris ing as it may seem to the uninitiated, thoro arc men who make a business of putting their clients prom inently before the public without the use of the regular advertising columns. And a paying business some of them find it, too. In most instances, how ever, the man seeking publicity is his own press agent. There are politicians who are advertising ex perts. Publicity is exceptionally essential to a cer tain class of politicians. It may not lie of value to the "machine" manager, but the man who holds an elective office is decidedly anxious to keep his name before the public. He does it in a dozen different ways. It may be that his office is of sufficient im portance to enable him to hold public attention by I lis official acts. If not, ho relies on tho newspaper men, for they can make public characters. He tells stories, he describes humorous incidents in his career, he has himself interviewed, he is ready to father any joke or any story that may be ascribed to him. Incidentally, it may be said that various prominent men are credited with amusing and harm less sayings and doings of which they knew nothing until they saw them in print. A Chicago reporter once had need of a man upon whom to hang a story. It was a fairly good story, but it would add to its interest and value if told of some local character who was known to the public. He finally selected a local politician as the subject. When he next saw the politician the latter said abruptly; "That story you told about me was a lie, so far as I am concern ed.'' The newspaper man admitted it. "Well," said tho politician, "it was a good story, and it helps to keep tho people from forgetting me. Whenever you have any other stories as good, put thorn 011 1110." For a considerable time the politi cian basked in the sunlight of publicity, for which the stories that the newspaper man saddled upon him were largely responsible. "It's all worth votes to 1110," the politician explained frankly. "I neod the publicity." In this connection it may bo sug gested that Chauncey M. Dopew is one of the best and most expert advertising men that this country ever produced. lie has advertised himself into the United States senate, which is not to be understood as meaning that ho is at all unworthy of that high position. Carter 11. Harrison is a good advertiser, also. Whenever there seems to be a likelihood that tho searchlight will bo turned away from him, he breaks into print with an article that describes the frightfully hard time he has being mayor of Chica go. Then there is .William Jennings Bryan, who advertised himself into a pretty comfortable thing as lecturer and general advisor to the American pub lic. Elbert Hubbard publishes a diminutive maga zine to advertise himself and repay his obligations to others for favors past and prospective. You can always tell when anyone has been good to Elbert by the way be writes about him in his magazine, but you are principally impressed with the fact that Elbert is good to himself. John W. Gates likewise is at some pains to keep himself "top of column next to pure reading matter." When lie cannot do it in any other way he makes a large bet. Thomas W. Lawson is a most versatile advertiser. lie has tried many schemes, including tho international yacht lace, the Lawson pink and "Frenzied Fi nance." Indeed, the list of those who, metaphorical ly speaking, "lose their diamonds" is a long one, but they all speak scornfully of tho actress who loses hers. Thus, for business or social reasons, we are very ready to "lose our diamonds" whenever wo have an opportunity to do so advantageously. We can soe this easily where others are concerned, and a little introspection will show us that wc are much like the others. And we are becoming more and more addicted to the publicity habit. Occasionally, ! there are substantial benefits to be derived from it; in other cases we like tho feeling of importance that it gives us. If, we are frank, we will admit that we probably would refuse to sit for three hours on the stage at a public meeting if no one was to know that we were among the distinguished citizens. And our wives and daughters would not be so ready, not to say anxious, to give descriptions of their gowns to the reporters at tho charity ball if they did not think it helped to advertise them into a stronger hold upon society. Until we attain at least a cer tain measure of publicity we feel that we are no body. So—some of us cautiously and delicately and some of us boldly and aggressively—we seek for advertising opportunities.' There are even weddings that are little more than efforts to attract attention. A NUMBER of men, congregated in one of our busi ness places, were heard to discuss the appearance of sale hills printed at three different offices in our city. They were unanimous in their support of the one printed at the Intelligencer office. Our hills always give satisfaction and are no more expensive than those of inferior work you soe issued from other offices. THERE are hut two Doctors of Medicine in the entire Congress of the I'nited States, and both of these are in the Senate.

Mr. Charles Hart man announced that the next meeting would be held at Limestoneville, March t>. lie asked for a full house and lie will likely have his wish gratified.

There were 120 good-natured, jolly saloon passengers on board the gallant steam-ship "Burniudian" as she sailed gracefully out of the port of New York on January 7th, en route for the Burmuda Islands, not "where the sweet potatoes grow," as the old song of the Civil War goes, but where the linest, juciest and most delicious onions in the world are propagated, and shipped to nearly all parts of the civilized world.
