WASHINGTON LETTER.
WASHINGTON, D. C., Feb. 23, 1884.
Business is moving along quietly
in Congress, but there are indications
that rapid progress will be made here
after. The committees of the House
have been worked like beavers piling
up and marking out business for con
sideration on the floor and when the
reports begin to come in there will be
lively work. President-making is the
ehief business of interest outside of
Congress, and on the Republican side
a greet deal of anxious attention is be
ing given to the contest now going
oa in the State of New York over the
selection of delegates. The friends
of Mr. Arthur are straining every
nerve to capture a majority of the del
egation and hope by that means to
secure the solid vote of the State for
the man who John Sherman, when
Secretajy of tbe Treasury, said was
not worthy to be entrusted with th£
office of collector of the port of New
York. But they have found a .treat
deal of strong opposition which devel
ops more and more every day. The
tools and methods relied upon by Ar
thur to secure the State for him are
not satisfactory to the better ele
ments of the party. 1 hey belong
purely to the lowest machine workers
and tactics. The strongest point made
bv the President's friends in his fa
vor is that lie has done nothing to ot
fend anybody; and it is true that a
large quantity of empty champagne
bottles are the sole monuments of Mr.
Arthur's official career. He don't even
till vaneaneies in office when they oc
cur. least the unsuccessful applicants
should be against him.but holds them
open to promise and trade on for del
egates. There are many vacancies
which have been accumulating for
several months and old politicians are
beginning to remark that the President
is overdoing the thing and that it will
tinallv do him more hurt than good.
In this connection 1 may state that
Mr. Springer's proposition for an a
mendment to the Ponstitdtiou,making
the Presidential term six years, and
and rendering the President ineligible
to reelection for the next succeeding
term, is received with great favor. It
provides for a direct vote for Presi
dent in each State, and abolishes the
eleetorial college. Kaeh State shall
have a number of votes equal to the
number of its Representatives and
Senators in Congress, to be given to
each candidate in proportion to the to
tal vote cast for each. The term of
Representatives in Congress is fixed
at three years, and Congress shall meet
each year on the first Wednesday in
January, the first session to convene
in the January succeeding the Novem
ber election. There are many consider
ations to recommend these changes,
not the least of which would be rais
ing the Presidential office and admini
stration to something above a schem
ing machine for the succession.
Some idea of the danger we are ap
proaching through the destruction of
our forests may be gathered from the
facts, reported by one of the fir.-d lum
ber stntisticans now living, that the
entire stock of standing white pine in
the United States does not exceed 80,
000.000,000 feet, which includes the
small and inferior trees which used to
IK* thought not worth cutting, and 10,
000,000,000 feet out of these 80.0(H),
000,000 are cut every year, with the
demand steadily increasing. The an
nual value of the product of our mills
as it falls from the saw is $300,000,
000, of which white-pine is the chief
item. At the lumber-yard from which
it is obtained by the customer, the
worth of this annual product is 50 per
cent more, or $450,000,000. To re
place this from other countries, which,
by the way, is an impossibility,would
require all the tonnage of the world
for its transportation, and it would
then cost in the yard more than twice
what it does now. Here then, we
have an annual deficit of $1,000,000,
000, to say nothing of the loss from
the crippling of manufacturers depen
ding on working wood, and the de-
rangement of the water supply. In
Michigan to day, good standing pine
bought of the United States Govern
ment for $250 per acre, is valued at
S2OO per acre, and yet tho remorse
less .slaughter of our remnant of pine
timber goes on at increasing speed;
and the cut of last year was the great
est ever known One out of the eight
year's supply is thus entirely taken a
way, and the end is therefore close at
hand unless we begin to economize.
These are cold facts to which Con
gress should promptly apply remedial
legislation. PHONO.

A Fortune that Came too Late.
i
WHEELING, W. Yn., Feb. 29.
, Charles Hale, for the past ten years an
inmate of the Jefferson county, Ohio,
poorlionse, on Saturday recei\ed noti
fication from a New Haven, Conn.,
legel linn that through the'dealli of a
brother, a large real estate owner in
! New Ilaven, he had fallen heir to $50,-
• 000. Hale, who is now a white-hain d
; man of 70, and decrepit in body, was a
i prosperous merchant in (,'iiiciuiiuti, but
j whiskey and gambling wrought his
ruin, lie says the money comes too
late, and prefers to end his days in the
infirmary. Hale las several wealthy
children in various parts of Ohio.
THE SLATE INDUSTRY of ladiigli and
Northampton counties is becoming an
interest of no mean proportion.-. The
growing scarcity ol timber suitable for
shingles and the steadily increasing ten
dengv to the use of brick and stone for
buildings, both in city and count!y,
have given the roofing-slate business a
regular boom during the past few years.
As Pennsylvania possesses the best
slate quarries in the United States a
I g<od deal of attention has been paid of
late by railway corporations to secur
ing a foothold in the slate country, not
so much for what the business is at
present as for what it promises to be in
the future. Tho output was greater
, during the past year than ever, and
new quarries are still being opened.
It is very evident; that the slate product
of the state is soon to figure among its
most important sources of wealth.
CAUGHT BY AN ICE FLOE
An Exciting- Seme on the
Blue Juniata.
A gentleman froin Juniata county,
states that on Sunday last t\vo young
men, one a son of Wm. G. -Thompson,
at present at Thompsontown, made a
miraculous escape from death. It ap
pears that the river was closed with ice
at some places and open at others. The
two young men, one Elbridge Sellers
and the other Thompson, attempted to
cross at one of the unfrozen spots, but
when half way over the ice above them
broke and in a few minutes their frail
boat was hemmed in by I lie lufge cakes
of ice and being carried down stream.
Their dangerous position was seen by
some people on the bank*. A dog v.as
procured, a rope tied to Jjis neck and he
then sent to the young men in the boat.
He reached them with the rope but in
thr endeavor to pull them to shore the
rope br£l;e and the dog could not be in
duced to return. Thompson then got
out of the boat and attempted to v;,k
to shore on the cakes of ice. They were
rotten and he soon found himself floun
dering in the water and J to
crawl out upon the ice unsuccessful.
After a great effort he sweeee led m get
ting close enough to shore to b rescued
in an almost benumbed condition, .Sel
lers stuck to the boat. It was shoved
about by the ice but not upset, and af
ter going down stream lor'fully a mile
tlip cu.rent took it to such a position
that the yoyng u>.m was tei deied aid.
The accident is said to ituve been one
of the most exciting, that has taken
place in that section for years, as few
who witnessed it expected to see either
of the ybnng men strvtd. J
Whoro School Books Cuino Prom.
In a country where tlm schools are
so numerous ami education so univer
sal as in the I 'nit, ii States,the print ii'ff
of the neede d hoohs must of necessity
bean important business. Further .tak
ing into considerat ion that these books
aie subjected to more wear ami tear
than any other cl ass of publications,
strengthens the lini empression that
the school-book publishing business
must he a \<rP wide-spiead one.
Strange to say, su.li is not the ease;
thero are only about twenty-live firms
in the I'liiled States that make a speci
ally of publishing school hooks. These
do an average annual business of $8
000, COO. Nearly all of the Sclntol-hook
publishing firms are in Northern and
Fastern e.iies, lucre being Imt thiee
South or We t i f IMiilailelplii.i and Bal
timore. New York <'it v has the hulk
of the business, and two-thirds of all
the school-books in use are issued by
live linns. Ot the two Western linos,
Van Antwerp, IhaggiN' Co., of Cinein
natli, do a yeaily'busiiuss of $1,500,
000. One New York estahlishinc lit
I'/son, Phiuney A: C . —does a trade
equally large; A. S. Ibirues A: Co., also
of New Yoi k, are put down at sl,l KM),
000 per annum for school books.
Profits on school books are not as
great as generally supposed, the expens
es of preparing the volumes being l.uge.
The leading Xew York funis in the
trade spent liberal sums to have hooks
•• int i educed and frequently they aie
discarded, after a hi i< f use, for some
thing newer and belter—something
nearer to the time. The rapid changes
in our listless net —cluing 1 sin geo
graphy and the seiciicts—naturally af
fect the school book and render stan
dard text-tu oks almost an impossiliil
ity. / 'i int' is <'in tihtv.
Mrs. William Watchman, Mrs.
Thomas Kwing, Mrs. David Tin mas
and the widow Richardson, and two
children, all of I lout/.dale, spent the
v hole of Tutsdav night of last week in
the woods in Woodward township.
Cleailieid county, having been caught
by a heavy sionn on their return from
a visit to fiitnd# at Whiteside run, on
the Moshaniion branch railroad. They
became completely bewildered, and al
though only a few hundred yards from
the house of Mr. Ilendershot. could not
find then way out. The Indies, how
e\er, are iccorded as ha\ nig ac ed h io
icaliy, especially Mrs. Watchman, the
mother of the widow Richardson, and
the children were protect id from I'm
element at the expense oi the otluis.
In the looming they made their wax to
Mr. IleiideishoCs house, where they
were kindly received and given a g .:xl
breakfast, after which they weie taken
to Hoot/dale in a wagon, just escaping
death from a falling tree on the road.
It was a night that the ladies and the
little ones will iong remember. —JU bY-

Secretary Crew, of the l'i nnsylvania
Society to protect ( hildren from (Tuel

T. Peek, commissioner ol labor statis
