In last week's Press an abstract from the opinion of Judge Dean of the Supremo Court, wns givon as to tho liability for repairs to county bridges and approaches. The de cision placed tho responsibility on the County Commissioners, under the acts there quoted. Pike, with several other counties, is under the act of 1860 known as the Washing Ington County Act, Section 0 of which provides as follows : "It shall be the duty of the supervisors of the Beveral townships, and the street commissioners, or othor per sons having charge of the highways in incorporated boroughs, to keep in repair all bridges built, or that may horeafter be built by the Coun ty Commissioners at tho chnrgo of tho county j and they shall bo sub joct to the like penalties for neglect as they are now liable to in the case of roads and bridges built at the ex ponse of the township or borough." Under this act it would seem that if supervisors of a township, or a street commissioner in a borough, noglocted to make the' necessary re pairs to a county bridge they or he would be liable to indiotment for neglect of duty, hut the question still arises in our mind undor the de cision of Judge Dean as to which, the township or tho county, would be liable for damages arising through the neglect to keep the approaches or the bridge in proper repair. Cer tainly the supervisor should be prompt in making repairs that he may not bo liablo, and inasmuch as the county must pay the bill for so doing ho should suffer no delay in the matter and so jeopardize tho in terests of eithor municipality. APPRO AIIES TO BRIDGES. What are tho approaches which would be included in the above de cision might seem a debatable mat ter, and the rather elastic term ap proach might seem to some suffici ent to cover the distanco on eithor side of the bridge, if the approaches so culled, aro embankments or arti ficial constructions leading up to the bridge. If this view is taken the township might relieve itself of con sidorable expense, ond impose a larger burden on the oouaty. Il seems a fair construction of the word to include only so much as may be within the wing walls of tho bridge, that is the walls or what ever may be used at the immediate ends of the bridge to retain tho road way so as to enuhla tho public to pass on the bridge, and not to eui brace what is more properly the nmdwny, although in ono sense an approach. This might vary in length from a few to severnl hun dred feet, hut we think an approach proper would be the immodinte ad junct contained within the wing walls which are in most cases necessary to the use of the bridge. It might at times he a difficult question to de cide, but no such technicality should crento any laxity on the part of the officers in making a necessary re-pnir. OUR LEGISLATURE. Five months have now elapsed since our law makers began their iaoub:itions, and they are apparent ly only at tho bogmnin? of their work. Cjituin reforms wore promised, and woro among the is sues upon which they were elected, but tho j have been neglected or re fused. Some of these wore a law to provide interest on State moneys in banks, a reappointment of tho Re presentative, Senatorial and Con gressional district?, and some changes in the ballot law. In all th330 tho people aro disappointed in either their non -action on or defeat of tho measures. The Legislature sejms to be devoting its whole time to finding out some new methods of taxing the people to raise revenue. It never for a moment considers a proposition to cut down expendi tures, anil even goes so far as to threaten to pass over the Governors veto measures to which he objects on the ground of expense, and be cause there is likely to be a deficit. There is too much of politics in the whole business, and not enough of real consideration for tho interests of the tax payers, who should and may have a determined voice in the matter later on. The state does not bolong to any one man or set of men. The people pay the bills and th nr rights should he respected and cared for. THE SUGAR SCANDAL. The Tillman resolution in the Senate to investigate as to what Ssnators profited by their informa tion to speculate in sugar stocks.ap paars to be on the hinge. If the in vestigation is ordered it might dis close some transootions which would be highly derogatory to some of the grave gentlomen composing fiat body, and if not ordered there is a suspicion that they nro afraid of tho results. It should pass and the investigation be mode through and searching, no mattor who is hit thereby. In 1891 several Sonators specultt- t d in those stocks, but the enquiry wis halted at tho oritioal point of di closing the facts. If this is to be repeated better not pass the resolu tion, but it should not be. The sugar trust with its methods of smirching the Sonata should be.un- oovered, and the men who are will ing so basely to betray that illustri- o as body should bo hold np without fe ir or favor. There should be no mock sentiment about the matter. Lot the facts appear. Now the Democrats of this Con gressional district will wranglo over the representation in convention, and the county rotation for candi dates to Congress. Possibly some one of the lamb counties will . lie down with the lion Northampton, in tide of her of course, and that will settle the hash, so far as the two questions go, but it may not sottle the third as to the certainty of election. We await devolop ments, and incidentally, harmony with nnru filed patience. Outt two commissioners, Nowman and Heller, in conjunction with Roinhart and Hartman of Monroo, deserve the commendation of the pablio for adhering to the idoa of scouring tho best bridge for the least money. That scorns to have been tho result of the meeting in Monroo last weoK, to settle the Bushkill bridge mattor, and we con gratulato the taxpayers on the out come.

General Sherman and General Thomas wero warm and intimate friends. In their familiar inter course they were 1 1 each other usu ally Bill and Tom, after the free and easy fashion of school hoys rather than liko dignified ond austere war riors. Near Resaca, during a sliorp action General Sherman went upon a rail way embankment directly in the line of fire and stood carelessly amid the flying bullets making his obser vations and giving his orders. Turning ho saw tho head and shoulders of tho portly and magni ficently proportioned Thomas ap, pearing above the railway earth work. Sherman, always careful for his friends rather than for himself, called out : "Pretty hot up here, Tom. Bet tor not como up." . ' "What are you doing there your self, then?" answered Thomas. "Oh, I just turn edgeways to ,em," said the tall, attenuated commander with a grin, as he resumed his duties. Youth's Companion. Listers and the Great Eastern Fer tilizers at W. & G. Mitchell's. The Ducking Stool. A metropolitan newspaper con tains the surprising statement that the ducking-stool still obtains in the State of Now Jersey as a punish ment for the offense of being a com mon scold. It appears that a war rant was sworn out against a res ident of the City of Hoboken by a neighbor, charging that the defend ant, by her practice of scolding, dis turbed tho quiet and repose of the neighborhood, and had become a positive nuisance. And our con temporary states that the accused, if convicted, may be placed on a ducking-stool and soused in a pond or other convenient body of water. Although the law agoinst a com mon scold still exists in this country, yet punishment by the ducking stool has become obsolete, fine and imprisonment having been substi tuted. A Mount Vernon woman was sen tenced to three months' imprison ment in the Kings county (N. Y.) penitentiary because she did not keep her children clean. She was the first woman to be convicted on such a charge. Tho publio debt of Franco is the largest in the world.and amounts to abovit 8,000,000,000.

I,nok of t.enilcrslilp In the Ilonso lfni Tended to Ueltt.v Action In Tlmt Body Tho Modified Itcfiirm Bills to Ho I'UHlled Through. (Rpoclal Corrfwpondonce.) HarrWIiurg, June 1. All factions agree thnt this will be the longest ses sion of the legislature since the adop tion of the new constitution. There has been much talk about final adjourn ment, but the work of tho house is so hopelessly delayed by adjournments and recesses on every Imaginable pre text that It will not be possible now to dissolve the lawmaking branch until the beginning of July. Oovernor Hast ings says he will be agreeably sur prised If thp legislature finishes Its work before the middle of thnt month. For a month at least the senate has been In session a few hours each week, waiting on the house to catch up, but the lower branch seems determined to remain far in the rear. Of course, the burning of the old rnpltnl Is given as an excuse for the present condition of legislative business, but those who are on the ground know that the destruc tion of the old state house has not been the real cause of the delay. There has been a disposition almost from the beginning of the session to dllly dally, and those who want to work are be coming thoroughly disgusted with the way things are going. One trouble during this session ha been the absolute lack of leadership In the house. It has been a very difficult body to handle, even In the legitimate sense. There are many petty Jealous ies, and any man who assumes to dic tate the course of procedure on any measure Is sure to be sat upon by his colleagues. Borne members seem to think that It Is the height of stales manshlp to do something that some other member does not want done. The factional differences In the Repub lican party at the organization of the legislature have contributed In some measure to the slow progress of legis lation. All the bills Indorsed by the Repub lican state convention are going through In a modified form, and will probably be approved by the governor. They provide against Interference In primary elections by municipal em ployes, agnlnst arbitrary assessments of officeholders and for the payment of the poll tax by the Individual voter, or on his order. The civil service bill is still pending in the house committee. The Stewart bill providing for the payment of Interest on state funds deposited In banks throughout the commonwealth has ben hanging fire n the senate committee for some time. It has been amended and will prob ably run the gauntlet of the senate this week In Its revised form. It pro vides for 2 per cent, on all deposits In banks other than the five active de positories Jn Philadelphia, Pittsburg and Harrisburg, which will be re quired to pay 1 per cent, on dally bal ances. These five depositories, under the amended bill, will be appointed by the state treasurer, subject to the ap proval of the board of accounts. Walton For 'President of the Senate. There has been considerable Interest In the selection of the president pro tern of the senate at the close of the present session. This officer is always selected at the preceding session, In order to provide against any con tingency that may arise in the gov ernment of the state, as for instance the death or resignation of the gov ernor and the consequent promotion of the lieutenant governor, ex-ofnelo presiding officer of the senate. It Is now practically agreed that Senator Walton, of the Fayette-Green district, hall succeed Senator McCarrell In the president's chair. Borne attempts were made last week to arrav the legislature against the governor on veto messages. He has been using the veto ax pretty freely on resolutions authorizing the printing of voluminous reports of special commis sions and committees at a great ex pense to the state, and this action on his part is understood to mean that he will treat certain appropriation bills in which the gentlemen opposed to him are Interested In a similar manner. These are now endeavoring to show that the governor Is Inconsistent In vetoing certain expense bills and ap proving certain others. They point out that as president of the board of pub lic buildings and grounds he approved a bill of over $56,000 for fitting up Grace church and other temporary quarters for the legislature and state officials. They denounce this bill as excessively extravagant, and declare that as the governor assumed responsibility for transforming the church into a legisla tive chamber he must also assume re sponsibility for the expenditures com plained of. Members of the board of public buildings and grounds explain that the large amount of money spent In the refitting of the church and the other quarters made necessary by the tire represents tne exact cost, plus a reasonable profit for the dealers from whom the purchases were made. Proposed Tax on Oleomargarine Those charged with the duty of rais ing revenue for the commonwealth have discovered that they have under taken a big Job. They have made one suggestion after another, only to met with opposition, and it looks now as If It will be necessary to reach some sort of a compromise on revenue meas ures and cut down the appropriations to suit the situation. Governor Hast ings declared a day or two ago that he would sign such bills as were proper up to the limit of the revenues, and that not a cent of appropriation would be approved by him beyond that limit This means that it will be futile for the legislature to pass a lot of appro priations bills, with the expectation that the governor will sign them. It haa been suggested that appropriation bills be cut through and the state treasurer be made to assume the re sponslbility for refusing to pay the money. State Treasurer Haywood has not had an easy row to hoe during his term. It is now proposed to place a tax on oleomargarine In order to raise reve nue. This wiU involve the licensing of dealers and practically legalizing the sale of oleo throughout the state. It seems Impossible to stop Its sale undei any restrictive law. Senator Grady offered a concurrent resolution providing for the appoint ment of a committee of nine three from the senate, three from the house and three to be named by the governor to draft legislation for the repeu.1 of existing laws and for additional legis lation upon the subject of Insurance. It provided that the committee, which was to Incur no expense, should report at the next session of the legislature. This resolution went through Hie renr'.t all right, bul when It g.it Into the In use it wont down nmld such a whirlwind of opimMtton that Its author wonders still why he ever Introduced It. It wa charged on the floor of the bouse tlu.t this resolution was offered for the pur pose -of eidetrarklng the Investigation of the InHurunre scandal. Betmtor Baylor's bill requiring the state treapurer to pay the chairman ol any Joint legislative Investigating com mittee the money necessary for the payment of witnesses and the actual expenses of the committee and officers, was killed by the house. It was argued that this measure would open the door to all sorts of reckless expenditures. Tho (Jovernor on Organized Labor. Governor Hastings received a large delegation of representatives of or ganized labor at the executive depart ment, who celled to urge upon him the approval of the Weller bill, permit ting employen of corporations to form and Join labor unions. This bill caused no end of discussion during its passage in the legislature,, and at one time lt defeat in the senate seemed almost certain, but the laboring element In the lawmaking branch this session l& strong, and there were certain political nfluenees nt work In the Interests of the bill which made Its passage pos sible. Governor Hastings told the dele gates who called upon him that If he found the bill good for the laboring people and for the best Interests of the commonwealth he would have no hes- llnncy In signing It, but If he found that It was going to work an Injury. and If It would not bo beneficial to the worktngmen, he would not hesitate to veto It. He recalled the fact that he had favored organized labor In his In augural address, and snld to the Zi:e men In his presence that he believed labor should be organized. Just as capi tal should, because through organiza tion much good might be accomplished. The Hamilton road bill has not yet reached the governor. In the senate the proviso that the bill should not be come operative until an appropriation of 11,000.0110 for the Improvement of roads was passed was amended by striking out $1,000,000 and Inserting $500,000. In this form the bill passed the senate and now goes back to the house for concurrence. From day to day the supporters of what Is known as the "Ripper" bill, a measure designed to uproot the pres ent city administration of Pittsburg, announces that the bill will be called up and passed, but it Is not called up. and those who ought to know say that Its passage Is out of the question. An Important bill for third class clt ties has Just been approved by the governor. It provides for levying school and school building taxes on the city valuation In cities of the third class where the school district com prises the same territory as the city. This will give the school districts a much larger amount of money, inas much as heretofore the school taxes had been levied on the county assess ments. Two Legislative Investigations.. Two legislative investigations are In progress which threaten unwholesome disclosures. One is probing the charge that $50,000 was demanded to defeat the bill prohibiting the Insurance of children, anl the other Is attempting to bring to light the truth or falsity of the chargs that oleomargarine deal ers in Pittsburg paid an agent of the department of agriculture large sums of money for protection. Both these committees will be ready to report something definite before the close of the session. Attorney General McCormlck has de cided that neither the legislature or the attorney has any power to settle the disputed question of title between the present owners of land in Oil City on the one side and the Cornplanter Indians on the other. He says that the courts are the proper tribunals to set tie the claim of the IndlanB to the Bite of Oil City. There is a probability of revolt on the Dart of the senate against any final adjournment resolution emanating In the nous-;. The senators say that for several years it has been the habit of the house to hold up the senate bills until the last minute, and then permit them to die upon the calendars. They want to know this year that their bills will be considered before they consent to final adjournment. There was an interesting fight In the senate over the bill appropriating $65, 908.96 to pay the expenses of the senate committee which Investigated the mu nicipal affairs of Philadelphia. Sena tors Kauffman and Flynn opposed the bill on the ground of extravagance, and contended that the legislature was un der no obligation to pay these expenses. Senator Grady defended the commit tee, saying that not one cent had been expended unnecessarily. Senator Mc Carrell also made a speech in support of the bill. The btll passed finally by a vote of 28 to 11. When It comes to the house .there is almost sure to be a long debate, as the factional lines in the larger body are more distinctly drawn than In the senate. Governor Hastings has approved the bills providing for forest reservation and the protection of timber land. No legislature has ever done so much tc advance forestry reform as the present. The game bill prepared by the State Sportsmens' association haa passed the legislature and has been approved by the governor. It is said to be one of the best measures for the protection of game In the United States. One of the pleasant Incidents of last week was the reception tendered Major General John Rutter Brooke, U. S. A., by Governor Hastings at the executive mansion. General Brooke is one of the most distinguished Pennsylvania sol diers of the late war, and since the end of that struggle haa done gallant ser vice for his country on the frontier. During the reception in his honor he met many old comrades who had served with him In the Forty-third Pennsylvania. 8TACKPOLE. Decoration Day at Mount McGregor. Saratoga, May 31. Senator Edgar T. Brackett delivered the Memorial day address at the General Ulysses S. Grant cottage at Mount McGregor. The Grand Army ritual service was conducted by Post McKean.
