IN the State Senate a unanimous
resolution was passed last Thursday
to submit the prohibition amendment
to the people to decide the question
by their ballots. The resolution also
passed the House, on Tuesday, by a
vote ot 123 YEN?, an d 24 nays. A
mong the few democrats voting in the
affirmative was Hou. Rhone from this
county.
HON. LEONARD RHONE'S endeavors to
induce the state legislature to request
congress to amend the constitution so
that the people sball elect U. S. Sen
ators directly are entirely in accord
with the wishes of a majority of the
yoting population. We have heard
opinions expressed time and again by
individuals and the press tavoriug the
abandoning of the complicated elec
toral system and it is to be hoped that
Mr. Rhone's efforts in this direction
may be successful. There is no reas
on whatever why the offices of L. S.
Senator and president can not be fill
ed by direct ballots as well as many
other important offices are.
PENSION bills of almost every de
scription pass congress of late and if
they would become laws it would re
duce the surplus in the treasury to
nothing in a very few years. One of

Cleveland now for signature. He does
not seem to be in a hurry about signing
it either,because this bill puts deserters,
bounty-jumpers and skulkers on a level
with deserving soldiers and every true
patriot hopes he will not sign it.
The surplus in the treasury might be
utilized to much more advantage in ap
propriating several millions of it for
the improvement of our very weak navy
and thus provide some protection for
our almost defenseless sea coasts.
As was expected President Cleve
land signed the Inter-state Com
merce bill last week and next in order
will be the appointment of the com
mission which is to carry the provis
ions of the new law into effect. Like
in all cases of the kind there are &
multitude of candidates, almost every
state in the Union having its man for
the position. It is thought that two
of the commissioners will be taken
from New York and Pennsylvania, on
account of the extensive railroad in
terests of these states. But the Pres
ident intends moving very cautiously
in the matter, because ho considers
the measure experimental and wishes
to fill the places with the ablest men
to be found in the country. Pennsyl
vania has its candidates and Christ
Magee, of Pittsburg, is spoken of in
Republican ranks as the most avail
able man, while ex-Gov. Pattison is
being mentioned by the other side.
GOVERNOR BEAVER has signed the
magistrate's bill and Philadelphia pol
iticians are consequently happy. That
set of grasping office seekers have
gained their point in the face of the
opposition which the better political
element exerted against this selfish
measure. The Governor's signature
of the magistrate's-bill clearly defines
his position in the administration of
this commonwealth. He is in the
clutches of the Republican ringsters
who dictate when they want some
thing done for their interest and the
Republican governor must obey,
This new measure creates four new
magistrates in the city of brotherly
love at an expense of $12,000 per
year, to come out of the tax payers'
pockets, notwithstanding that the
present number of magistrates have
not work enough to keep them em
ployed regularly. But the Republi
can sharks wanted an office bad and
they got it
The total number of immigrants who
arrived in the United States last year
was 386,755, against 326,151 in 1885.
THE annual financial statement of
the commissioners of Centre county
which made its appearance in supple
ment form last week is a verv com
plete and comprehensive report of the
receipts and expenditures tor the year
1 SS(>. We invite the special atten
tion of the taxpayers to the sixth col
umn of the supplement where at the
head appears the final statement of
accounts with the county treasurer,
which shows that there is a cash bal
ance of $8980,77 in the treasury.
Further down in the same column
our readers will find the liabilities and
assets, with a balance of $27,11*2.13
in favor of the county. With reduced
taxes all the expenses of the county
were paid, improvements were made
and a formidable balance left to begin
the new vear with. If that is not, a
verv creditable showing of the efficient
management of the financial allairs of
the county bv our board of commiss
ioners then we should like to know
what more could be asked in fairness
and justice.
THE strike in New York continues
with very little signs of abating. And
that is not the worst of it. The influ
ence of the action of the Knights of
Labor Union spreads to other parts |
of the country. In several sections ;
of Pennsylvania miners and factory
employes "await orders from head
quarters to *'go out" and thousands
are ready to strike simply because
thev are Knights of Labor and are in
| svmpathy with their brethren in New
York. This is a deplorable state of
affairs and an organization with such
principles is injurious to the business
interests of the country to the largest
degree. Mayor Hewitt, of Now
York, in talking to a reporter the
other dav, about the present labor
troubles expressed himself in the fol
lowing decisive and'pointed language:
"Any attempt to interfere with the
commerce of this country is an offence
aguiust the Constitution and laws,and
the whole power of the United States
may be invoked to prevent any in
terference with the loading and un
loading of vessels in the port. . .
The days of the Yehmgericht and of
the Council of Ten were supposed to
be purely historical, but hero is an at
tempt a! the close of the nineteenth
century to restore the terrors of secret
tribunals and blot out the rights of
individual liberty established by the
struggles of revolution and the sacri
fices of the three centuries which have
brought the world out of political
darkness into the light of freedom.
There is nothing American about this
and it caunot last."
WASHINGTON LETTER.
(From our regular correspondent.)
WASHINGTON, Feb. 7,1557.
Congress is working away these days
as though it realized the shortness of
its life and the necessity of accomplish
ing much before the fourth of March.
Various questions have been discussed
in both the Senate and House during
the past week, some important meas
ures haye been passed and others have
become laws by receiving the Presi
dent's signature.
The Beck bill as passed makes it un
lawful for any Senator or Represent*-
tive to accept employment as attorney
at-law or payment for services of any
kind in opposition to the United States,
in any case in which its interests may
be concerned. Any member of either
house of Congress who violates the pro
visions of this act may be punished by
imprisonment not exceeding one year
or by fine not exceeding SSOO, or by
both.
Mr. Fvarts went so far as to say that
those lawyers in the Senate \yho would
vote for such a bill would make the im
putation against their profession that
lawyers were a class to be taken out
from the rest of the community, for
fear they might be drawn over the line
of their duty. The right of citizens
was to be invaded because honest em
ployment might lead to criminality.
All of Mr. Evarta logic was lost upon
the Senate however, and refused by a
vote of nearly three to one.
The President's approval of the Inter-
State Commerce bill was in full accord
with the opinion of Attorney General
Garland, and with the yiews of the en
tire Cabinet. The next question is,
who will he get to serve their country
as commissioners under the new law
and against railroad corporations. A
mong two or three scores of candidates
Col. Morrison is oftenest mentioned as
one of the number which will be ap
pointed. lie is quoted as saying lately
that it is the only position under the
Government which he desires.
Representative Reagan, who will
come to the United States Senate next
year as the successor of Mr. Maxj, of
Texas, lias long been identified with
the Inter-State Commerce bib. lie has
contended for this legislation for many
years, and his election may be accepted
as an indorsement of his course. Judge
lteagan, as the Senator elect is called,
is a man of indefatigable industry, an
assidous repiesentative of the ipteiests
of his constituents, and is sure to make
a good record in the Senate. lie is
well-known in Washington, having
served four years in Congress before
the war, and nearly twelve years since
the war. During the war he was Post*
master (general of the Southern Con
federacy.
The question of temperance lias been
creditably solved for herself by the mis
tress of the White House. When the
Diplomatic Corps sat down to the
President's dinner of state a few even
ings ago, eight wine-glasses stood at
every plate but that of Mrs. Cleveland,
she took only water. This was not a
criticism of the taste of her guests, but
only an assertion of her own preference.
Jt defined her personal status, and it
discharged her official duty.

When she was a Child, she cried for Castor!*, 1
When she became Miss, she clung to Castoria,
When she had Children, she gave them Castoria, '

fanners of Dakota west of the Missouri
and eighty miles east of that river.
11 ail storms and drought destroyed the
fall wheat crop in that section, and
without such assistance as the North

the fanners would lltul themselves in a
very tignt place. In return for the
seed wheat the farmers will return

from it.

How Roosters Bulldoze Grangors.
From the Hart i-bntg star.
There is not the slightest doubt that
the country members, as a rule, are in
timidated into voting for measures
which the "lingsters" approve. A rep
resentative from one of the country
districts gave a sample of this "bull
dozing" to the Stnr correspondent to
day. lie had made up his mind not to
vote for the bill giving the Traction
Company, of Philadelphia, unlimited
power. A Philadelphia member heard
. of this intention on the pait of th rep
resentative from the rural district and
' approaching him said : "If you don't
vote for the passage of this measure
the local bill you have introduced will
be defeated ; the whole 'gang' will vote
against it." The consequence was the
country member voted for the Traction
oill, and there were others who did the
same under similar circumstances.
"The country members want a leader,"
said a Representative from the interior
of the State, "and with a fearless,
brainy man at their head they can dety
the bosses and vote as their conscience
dictates."
Statistics as to Strikes-
Over 100.000 Peoplo Now Idle as
Compared With 47.700 This
Time Last Year.
]tra<l street's furnishes a new ami fair
ly accurate report of (1) leading strikes
begun in 1888 and unsettled on January
1 last ; (2) all strikes in the United
States begun during January, 1887, and
(8) strikes announced during the first
three days of February. It is ascer
tained that the total number of men on
strike during January, IK<7,1 K< 7, was about
seventy-tight thousand against 47.200
in January, 1880. Inasmuch as 0,000
men have struck since Januarv 81 last,
the comparison becomes 87.000 on
stiike since January 1, 18s7, as com
pared with 47,200 in 1880. 1M addition
to this total of men out of work, it is
t.-i lvu n-xt.yl tli-jt If! ftOO uinrkiirc in fun
cause ot the scarcity of coal or because
of the lack of work caused by the
strikes of others. This points to 104,-
000 industrial employes who have stop
ped work since January 1, as compared
with 47.200 for a like period in 1880.
There were eight strikes begun in 18SG
carried over into the current year.
These involved 5,000 men. Four have
ended, two of them successfully,includ
ing 1.170 men, and two failing, involv
ing 880 men. In January there were
begun over 00 strikes by 73,000 employ
es. Of these 32 have ended,22 of them,
involving 3,300 men, being successful,
and 0 of them, involving 5,700 men,
having failed. About od January
strikes, therefore, remain unsettled.
The 24 strikes reported for three days
In February furnish a list of 9 900 men.
None of these has been set tiled.
TERRIBLE LOSS OF LIFE.
An Exprebs Train Pill6d. with Ex
cursionists Hound forth J Win
ter Carnival at Montreal
Plunges Through a
Hridgo.
Dispatches received last Sunday by
the associated press repoited a teriible
disaster of the Montreal Express at
Woodstock, Vt. The train was loaded
with passengers, mostly from Boston,
who were on their way to the great
Canadian winter carnival. Ira A.
Chase, of Bristol, who went to the
wreck shortly after the accident occur
red gives the following account :
'•The train left White ltlver Junction
late, and the accident is thought to
have occurred at 2.id a. m. A broken
rail was discovered some 200 feet this
side of the bridge, but whether this
caused the accident or a wheel first
broke is in doubt, file locomotive and
baggage and mail cars crossed the
bridge in safety. Two passenger coach
es, the Boston sleeping car "Pilgrim"
and the Springfield sleeper 'e?t Albans''
went off the bridge at the end on the
right hand side, and apparent ly tpi ned
bottom upward jn the rail. Men living
near by stated that when they got to
the scene there was no fire except in
the forward passenger car, but the
(lames soon spread to the other cars
and then to the bridge. All were con
sumed."
Twenty-six persons so far as known
were taken out aliye from the cars
which were burned. Two of these are
understood to be Mr. Wesson, pistol
manufacturer of Springfield, and Ed.
Brock'ebanks, a brakemau, but they
soon alter. T'>e two passenger
coaches were well tilled and every berth
iu the Boston sleeping car was occupied
and twelve in one from Springfield,
making the total number of passengers
in the wrecked cars about eighty. This
will probably make the number of dead
between fifty and sixty. The budge
was between thirty and forty feet a
boye the water, which was covered
with thick ice. making it probable that
death resulted from crushing and burn?
ing rather than from drowning. Several
were penned in the wreck who might
have been respued alive but for the
flames.
The bridge crossed llie White river
about four miles above the town of
White River Junction, Vermont, and
near the old unused station called
Woodstock. It was a simple wooden
truss structure, about 2bU feet long,
crossed diagonally twenty feet above
tiie river. The road is the main line of
travel between Boston and Montreal.
The bridge was not considered 111 any
way less safe than fifty other similar
bridges in the rough and mountainous
country through which the road passes.

CLEARFIELD, l'a., Feb, B.—At 12.30
o'clock to-dav.u 0 year old son of Alon
zo Adams, of this place, was drowned
in the Susquehanna river. lie, with
several other hoys, was watching the
ice as it moved down tlie stream when
lie slipped oil the bank and was carried

the surface for one-half mile, lint the
How of ice and drift being so great it
was iinpossit le to render him any as

Good Thing for Teachers.
What a Prominent School Teacher
Thinks of an Assembly Hill.
"What do you think of the legisla
tive bill now pending requiring pay
ment ot teachers' salary while attend
ing institute ?" asked a Fatri J report
er of a prominent male school teacher
of llarrisburg. "It is an equitable
measure and ought to pass." said lie.
"As it is now it has been found ditli
cult to secure the attendance of teach
ers at the institutes in this city. If
they were led to regard such attend
ance as part of their work, for which
they were to he paid, it would doubt
less have a good effect. I think the
hill is designed more especially to apply
to country schools. In country dis
tricts teachers who receive small pay
as most of them do —tind that it week's
attendance at an institute;whieh may be
at some distant point, entails expenses
that they are not able to stand. Anoth
er provision of the bill, it quiring at
least six months' school in every dis
trict, is also good. Six months are
short enough for a term of school any*
where."
