THE trade dollar bill is still in the
balance, with a slight tendency to its
final passage. Those of the house
who are in favor of the redemption of
the trade dollar believe that the Sen
ate will eventually accept the measure.
PHILADELPHIA stuck to its old colors
in last Tuesday's election. It elected
Fitler, the republican candidate for
Mayor by about 30,000 majority.
Clay will get away with the office of
receiver of taxes with about 10,000
majority, leaving Bentou. democrat,
out in the cold. City Solicitor War
wick, republican, is re-elected by a
heavy majority. There is very little
democracy about Philadelphia accord
ing to these returns.
WEDNESDAY morning's Patriot
came out in jubilant colors over the
triumph of Harrisburg's democracy in
Tuesdays election. John A. Fritchey
and William K. Verbeke, the demo
cratic candidates for Mayor and City
Controller, were elected by handsome
majorities, which is taken as a sure
sign that the democratic party of
Pennsylvania's capital is united and
has the co-operation of the labcr party.
'Rah for Harrisburg.'
WAR is still a predominant topic in
Europe and by all accounts they are
bound to shed blood over there before
long. Appropriations to supply the
armies with more arms and war ma
terial are being voted by the legisla
tive bodies right along, in order
to be ready for a surprise and only on
the defensive, but they all seem to be
sure of the surprise. In fact whole
Europe seems to be holding its breath
while awaiting the signal of alarm.
In the meantime Uncle Sam stands
ready with a full supply of provisions
to furnish the fighting nations across
the pond with the necessaries of life.
IT has been learned that Mr. Man
ning called at the White House on
Monday afternoon and placed his resig
nation in the hands of the president
to take effect on the appointment and
qualification of his successor. This
action is taken in order to allow Mr.
Manning to accept the presidency of
the Western National bank, of the
city of New York. It is stated at the
White House that no immediate ap
pointment will be made to the olfiee
and that Mr. Manning will continue
to act as secretary for several weeks.
It is known that the president parts
with Mr.Manning with sincere regret
and that he reluctantly consents to
his withdrawal from the cabinet.
PRESIDENT Cleveland is still unde
cided whom to appoint on the inter
state -commerce commission. The
trouble is there are several hundred
applicants for the positions, all able
men, no doubt, but the choice is so
good that Cleveland is at a loss whom
to select. It is said that he is deter
mined that the members of the com
mission shall be young men. To one
of his visitors he remarked .*
"I want men on the Board who are
as sound physically as they are men
tally. I want, in other words, men
who can make, if necessary, a hurried
trip to California, solve the intricacies
of some problem there, return in the
same fashion to Washington, stopping
a few days at Chicago, doing some
more work there, and yet not feel the
fatigue of the trip. There will be a
great deal of traveling and a great
deal more hard work. It will be no
sinecure. Whoever takes a place on
the board will earn eyery dollar of his
jponey."
Tho Militia Bill a Law.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 14.— Tho presi
dent. Ims allowed the act appropriating
$400,000 a year to provide arms and
equipments for the militia to become a
law without his signature. The con
stitutional limitation of ten days with
in which he should have acted on this
bill expired on Saturday. His failure
to sign the bill is regarded as an over
sight, as lie was not known to object
to any of its provisions.
Next Year's Campaign.
Ex-Senator Barnum Thinks tho
Domocrats Will Win It.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 13.— Ex-Senator
Barnum, of Connecticut, has been in
Washington for several days and dur
ing that time has made several visits to
the Executive Mansion, where he has
had conferences on several subjects of
importance to the administ ia'ion and
upon the political preMniinaries and
prospects of the national campaign
next year. In speaking of the political
outlook the veteran ex Senator and pol
itician said :
14 i consider that the Democrats will
have a reasonably sure thing of it in
New York, and I know that we will in
Connecticut. The last election dispos
ed of all doubts on that score. We
elected tlnee Democratic members of
Congress which is a fair test of
strength. The i.tw of the State re
quites a majority to elect a Governor
but a plurality can give us the electoral
ticket. We can get that. So you can
put Connecticut down for the Demo
cratic nominee for President. NVe
should have had the Legislature, and 1
expected that we would capture it , but
the Republicans had the machinery."
44 What do you think of the campaign
of ISSS ?"
"It. will be a fairitest of public senti
ment on good government under Dem
ocratic auspices. It must be admitted
that Mr. Cleveland has made a good
president for the country and for the
Democratic party, lie has had the
courage to do what heeonsideied light,
without reference to the clamor of a
few people who represent political
methods and popular intelligence of
thirty years ago, and. thereiore. are be
hind the age. The Democratic^*.ivty
is stronger to-day before the people
than it was in November, I>M. ITder
President Cleveland it lias been restored
to public confidence and under his lead
ership it will not only have every pros
pect of winning again, but in a second
success it may be counted safely estab
lished in authority until its own folly
brings it into disrepute. Sagacious
statesmanship will moor the party on
safe ground, and there she should stay
for many years."
The ex-Senatoi laughed .it the talk of
the nomination of Blaine being conse
quent upon the renomiuatiou-of Cleve
land. "Only let the republicans try it.
That will suit us. The recent Senator
ial tight in New York lias increased the
dissensions in our opponent's ranks
four-fold. And I am certain that Blaine
cannot carry Connecticut, New Jersey
or Indiana. We have run Massachu
setts down to a doubtful State. 1 be
lieve we can beat Blame there, and
there are other New England States
very shaky. Judging from the present
appearance of things, I don't think
that the Republican leaders will permit
Mr. Blaine to he remembered. They
have not yet lost all their political cun
ning. But should he be taken up you
will see the worst beaten party that has
been known for many years. A West
ern man for President, with a strong
man in New York for Vice President,
might give the contest a hopeful out
look for the Republicans."
WASHINGTON LETTER.
(From our regular correspondent.)
WASHINGTON, Feb. 13, IW.
The sensation of the past week on
Capitol Hill was the President's veto of
one of the most reckless specimens of
legislation that was ever presented to
any Congress: the Universal Pension
bill. Not that his action was a sur
prise to those who have watched his
course in regard to pension matters,
for he has shown, on several occasions
already that he has the courage to do
his duty, Rut, as Representative
Springer said, no man ever filled the
office of President before Mr. Cleveland,
who would have had the boldness to
veto such a bill which had passed both
Houses of Congress by more than two
thirds majority, and which had so pow
erful a sentiment at the back of it.
Echoes of congratulation have been
coming back to the President from all
puts of the country, end he has heard
plenty of censure from the mere parti
sans who have learned to regard the
war as their personal legacy. But he
will have the praise, approval-ami grat
itude of the great mass of the people of
all sections, the tax-paying civilian
and the honest veteran, of all all true
patriots both of the North and Mouth.
The reading of the Presidents mes
sage explaining his reasons for the veto
commanded close attention from the
House of Representatives. Many Con
gressmen are now unable to say what
their future action will be until thej
have heard from tiieir constituents. It
is thought, however, that the hiil could
not be passed over the veto, for many
members who voted for it have been
surprised since at the condemnation it
received from people among all parties.
Should this remarkable pension bill
become a law, it would give a pension
to every ex-Union soldier who can not
earn the sort of living he would like—in
other words, to every man who was in
the Federal army and is yet alive. Jt
would give a pension to every drunkard
and shiftless loafer who was in the
army for ninety days, even if his disa
bility is due solely to his own vices. It
would give a premium to mendicancy
and indolence for nothing convinces a
man that he is unable to work like
showing hiui that he can live without
it.
And then think of the millions alter
millions of the people's money that
such a hill would waste. It would
double the pension burden of tho Uni
ted btates, making it $150,000,000 a
year. It would make the roll call of
pensioners larger than the Federal army
ever was and four times as large as the
whole standing army of England.
The Republican members of Congress
have made but little comment upon the
subject. The veto message seems to
have taken their breath. Rep. Stal
necker, of N. Y., thinks the message is
the ablest state p iperof Mr Cleveland's
term. Said lie, "It takes up the bill,
section by section, and just tears it to
tatters. In stating his reasons for the
veto. £iie has built a fort around him
which it will be pretty difficult to
storm."
A western congressman, who was
speaking of the Presicent's courage
said, "my admiration for him was nev
er great until now. He has turned his
face against a sentiment be.ore which
all parties have bowed, and if he is sus
tained by Congress, this incident may
be the /urning point of a popular reac
tion against the abuse of the whole peu-
Siofl business."

Fire in Philadelphia.
Tho Third Story of tho City Hall at
Broad and Market Streets Ablaze.
PIIIL A DELPHI A, Feb. 14.— Fire broke
out in the northwest wing of the fourth
lloor of the new city hall, at Broad and
Market streets, .this afternoon. The
fire is confined to the rooms, two in
number, where it was first discovered,
and cannot extend lelow the third
lloor. This portion of the building is
unoccupied. The tiames originated, it
is supposed, from spontaneous com
bustion in the third lloor room, and
qtuckly burned through a temporary
wooden flooring into the room above
and thence through the roof.'„Tie room
where the lire broke out is used for the
storage of rubbish, and contained a
quantity of old rags used by the paint
ers. The loss will probably amount to
SIO,OOO, said to be covered by insur
ance.
Ice Gorge and Floods-
Towns lir Michigan and Other
Points West in Great
Distress.
LYONS, Mich., Feb. 10.— Lyons is a
sea of ice. Grand river rose during the
night about four feet, and an ice gorge
formed just below the city. The whole
business part of the'town is under wa
ter and great damage has been sustain
ed. The loss will reach into the thous
ands. Severn 1 families have been driv
en out of their dwellings and others
took to the upper stories. The ice
gorge covers an area of about four hun
dred acres, and is estimated to be
twenty feet thick in some places. The
water is several feet deep on the second
floor in the woolen mills and Corneli
Works. It is feared the flouring mills
with 10,000 bushels of wheat and two
hundred barrels of ll >ur will be flooded.
Should the Lansing ice", reach hero he
fore the gorge breaks it will probably
leave the river bed and carry many
houses down the river. All mails are
shut off from the North and West.
Boats manned with three or four oais
men each are making strenuous efforts
to save property. Some buildings have
been swept down the stream and ut.fi
ers must surely go. The current is
cutting the embankment of the Water
Power Company and rushing in tor
rents through the factories. Those
who can are anchoring their buildings
to keep them from being swept down
stream. II is estimated that one thous
and acres are covered with the ice
gorge.
At Owosso, Mich., the ice in the
Shiawassee river is j mimed below Main
street bridge and the water, already
high, is rising gradually. All factories
along the river have been obliged to
close.

CARLISLE, Feb. 10.—Cutnbei land

the many schemes they have for turn

was rarely refused. After putting in a

which was large. The result was a

SOLD AT A SACRIFICE!
The Ilululai/s arc past, but a lot of holiday goods remain on our hands,
and we will sell these goods at a
SACRIFICE.
What we wish to say to our customers is this : That we are going to
sell cheaper than ever before.
WHY?
First —Because this is a dull season in general. But tee are going
to make it lively by selling goods way down and selling much.
%
Second —Because we have a big supply of winter goods on hand t
that must be sold in order to make room for a spring slock.
Third — Because we can afford better to sell winter goods cheap than
carry them over the saason.
Fourth— Because we. have the "Swing 11 and are bound to keep it.
REMEMBER!
We have anything from a needle to a hogshead of molasses—a good
Sewing Machine or a house and lot.
