TNURSDAY, ARITLL 7TII, 1887.
Published by r7 A. BU MILLER.
WILLIAM S. PIERCE, Associate
Judge of the Court of Common Pleas
of Philadelphia, died on Monday of
heart disease. He was highly houor.
Ed by all his associates and had just
entered upon his third term as Associ
ate Judge, to which he was elected by
Republicans and Democrats, though
being a republican himself.
SENATOR SHERMAN is at present on a
roundtrip in the South preteuding to
convince himself of the industrial prog
ress of that part of the country. The
sly old fellow feeds the Southern peo
ple lots of taffy and takes particular
care not to use any bloody shirt lan
guage. Rnt the people there knew
something about John before he hon
ored them with his hypocritical pres
ence and they are quite sure that the
visit of the old Republican politician
is simply his initiatory step of the
presidential campaign of 1888. Selah!
THE CENTENNIAL of the Constitution
of the Unites States was recently dis
cussed by the committee in charge ot
the arrangements and representatives
of the papers of Philadelphia in a
conference held in the Continental
Hotel. The main question at hand
was the manner of raising the necess
ary funds to defray expenses. Though
Congress voted an appropriation of
SIC 9 ,000 for the purpose, it adjourned
without final actioD and the committee
must now depend upon the financial
help given by the several states in the
Union. Delaware, Connecticut and
Massachusetts have already responded
to the call and Pennsylvania is expect
ed to follow suit. A bill favoring an
appropriation to the centennial is now
before the respective committees in
both houses of the state legislature. The
programme will consume three days,
to be arranged as follows: First day
military parades, second day industri
al parades, third day general jubilee
with addresses, etc.
ABOUT the constitutionality of ap
portioning the state into congressional
districts seven years alter the decenni
al census, ex-Attorney-General Palm
er writes to the Wilkesbarre Record
this evening as follows: "The consti
tution commands an apportionment
immediately after each United States
decennial census. To be literally o
beyed a special session of the leg
islature in the ceusus year ought to be
held, regular sessions being biennial,
unless a regular session chance to oc
cur at that time. No one ever con
tended for such a severe construction
Immediately does not mean instant,
ly, but as soon thereafter as the legis
lature may convene. The framers of
the Constitution expected a new ap
portionment every ten years, but the
failure on the part of the legislature
to perform this act works no repeal of
existing apportionment laws until sup
plied by new. The old laws are oper
ative, aDd members elected in con
formity with them are certainly enti
tled to seats in congress."
THE local elections in the western
states on Tuesday resulted as follows:
The election for associate judge of the
supreme court in Milwaukee was a
democratic victory, Harlow S. Ortou,
being re elected. In Milwaukee coun
ty the democrats and republicans
placed a fusion ticket in the field a
gainst the labor party. The fusion
candidates forjudge of the circuit court
and of the superior court carried the
day by 2000 majority In Kansas
the women availed themselves very
generally of their newly acquired pri
vilege of suffrage. At several points
women were elected to membership on
the school boards. At Dubuque, lo
wa, the Knights of Labor ticket made
a full sweep, wtile in Chicago, 111.,
labor was largely outvoted and Roche
(republican) was elected by about 28,
000 majority. The municipal election
in Toledo, Ohio, have a mixed result,
the republicans electing their candi
dates for mayor, police commissioner,
prosecutor, city solicitor. The demo
crats have the judge and water works
trustee and the school board. The
board of aldermen is tie. In Denver
Col., the indications are that the re
publicans elected the mayor. St.Lou
is, Mo., was carried by the democrats.
In Michigan the republican plurality
on the state ticket will be about 0000,
while the prohibitory amendment was
defeated by about 3,500.
EASTER EGGS form an important fac
tor in making the Easter holidays a
season of happiness and joy. Few
however are aware of the deep mean
ing which lies in the time honored
custom of presenting Easter eggs. In
looking at the etymology of the word
"Easter'' we find that it has its ori
gin in the Anglo-Saxon word Eastre,
fromOfitara,a goddess of light or spring
in whose honor the people of the an
cient World celebrated the equinoctial
season, by giviDg colored eggs to their
friends to remiod them that like the
egg contains the germ of life so nature
is being awakened to new life in the
spring of the year. Later on, the first
christian workers endeavored to har
monize the old heathen usage with
the christian religion by connecting
another and more important lesson
with the former celebration. The Eas
ter festival was subsequently observed
by the church in commemoration of
Christ's resurrection and the Easter
eggs continued to figure as part of the
programme, but were used as an il
lustration of the thought that as slum
bering life in the egg only needs help
to be awakened, so has the world
through the death and resusrrection of
our Saviour gained everlasting life.
This is the deeper meaning of the eas
ter egg, and it will be a profitable less
on for parents to give to their children
along with the eggs on Easter mora
iag.
THE bili introduced by Representa
tive Shaeffer, of Clinton county, en
titled an act to secure to laborers a lien
for their work and labor done in nnd
upon and about the cutting, peeling,
skidding, hauling, sliding, banking,
driving and running ot saw loga,squar
ed timber, prop timber, hoop poles,
railroad ties.bark and other timber and
lumber, passed the House finally on
Tuesday morning. The hill will meet
the heatty approval of all lumbermen.
In the afternoon session a number of
bills were passed finally, among them
the one authorizing the councils of the
boroughs of this commonwealth to reg
ulate and fix the amount of license to
be paid by persons or firms engaged in
the business of auctioneering within
the limits of the same.
The bill requiring the payment of
certain premiums to the fire depart
ment of cities and incorporated
boroughs by fire insurance companies
not organized under the laws of this
commonwealth, but doing business
therein for the ielief of disabled firemen
and regulating the disbursement there
of, also passed by 144 yeas to 23
nays.

In the Name and In/ the Authority
of the Commonwealth of Pennsyl

cedent, and in compliance with a re
quest of the General Assembly of the
Commonwealth of Pennsylvania con
tained in a concurrent resolution, ap
proved the 30th day of March. A. D.
1887, I liaye appointed and designated
and do here appoint and designate,
FRIDAY, THE 22D DAY OF APRIL,
A. D. 1887, AS AIIBOR DAY.
And Ido earnestly recommend to the
people of the Commonweatlh that they
devote the whole or at least a portion of
the said day to the Trees and Shrub
bery wherever it may be proper and
convenient so to do.
Let school directors, teachers, and
scholars unite in making it a day for
the adornment of the grounds surround
ing the school houses thiougliont the
Commonwealth. Let the people of our
towns and villages make it a day far
the planting of trees along their streets
Let the people in our rural regions see
to it that their highways are beautified
by the planting of trees upon Mieir bor
ders. Let famlies observe the day in
the planting of trees and slirubl erv in
the grounds surrounding their homes.
Let the farmers see to it that the waste
places on their farms are turned to
profitable account by the planting ot
timber, nut, and finit trees thereon.
Let the people understand that upon
the general observance of this cap, and
the practice results which arise there
from. in large measure depend the con
tinuance of regular seasons of rainfall
the tempering of our climate, the beau
ty of our homes and highways, the tim
ber supply of the future, and a remun
erative return for labor bestowed upon
lands not otherwise productive.
The observance of Arbur Day is be
coming general in many of our states;
its necessity is recognized by those who
have g>ven the greatest care and study
to the subject; and its practical use
fulness is tested by all who liaye en
gaged in it.
In case the day herein designated
should be unsuitable in any portion
of the Commu wealth let an adjournment
he had to some future day which will
suit the climate and convenience of the
locality.
Given under mv hand and the great

WASHINGTON LETTER
(From our regular correspondent.)
WASHINGTON, April 4, 1887.
Probablv never before in the history
of the United States Treasury Depart
ment has a Secretary been appointed
who was so universally popular as is
its new head. Not tlie faintest sound
of criticism or complaint of Mr. Fair
child is to be heard from any source.
When the first rumors of Secretary
Manning's resignation were circulated
about the Department,the wish was ex
pressed by his subordinates on all sides
that the Assistant Secretary would be
promoted to succeed him.
Without discussing such profound
questions as Mr. Fairchild's financial
policy, it can be. truly said that not in
years has there been a Secreary ot the
Treasury so heartily congratulated,and
never licfore did a Secretary open his
doors to shake hands and receive the
personal congratulations of those under
him, even down to the lowest rank.
It was in last September, during the
abseuce of Secretary Manning and cer
tain other important officials, that Mr.
Fairchilct, as Acting Secretary of the
Treasury, performed an immense a
mount of taxing brain work. It was
at a period which was probably the bus
iest in tiie history of the Department.
He performed his difficult task with
such marked ability and energy tfir.t it
could not be otherwise than win for
him the admiration and confidence of
the country at large as well as of the
President, It is said that Mr. Cleve
land then made up his mind that in the
event of Secretary Manning's perma
nent retirement from the Cabinet the
man who had for so long and so ably
been the practical Secretary of the
Treasury aljould be rewarded for such
distinguished merit.
The appointment of Mr. Fatrchild is
also an evidence that the strong, con
servative financial policy under which
the country has passed from an era of
profound depression to the eye of a new
period of prosperity and hope is to he
continued for the remaining two years
of tho present administration. 1 lie ef
fect of his promotion will be to prevent
any injurious agitation of the money
market, such as might have occurred if
a man in whom the public had less con
fideuce had succeeded Mr. Manning.
Now current values will not be dis
turbed oy the smallest fraction. Ev
erything inside and outside of the De
partment will move OD without a rip
ple-, and, except that Mr. Fairchild has
no taste for the practical work of poli
tics and will not allow such matters to
trespass upon his time, tfierp will be
nothing to mark the transition from
the old Secretary to the new.
The Inter-State Commerc3 Commis
sion has organized,located temporarily,
petitioners have appeared before it and
it has had its first discussion oyer some
of the intricate sections of that compli
cated piece of legislation which it is ex
pected to mafic plain. The Commis
sioners are flooded with applications for
office. Rvery state in the Union comes
to them for favors of this kind, and ev.-
ery incoming UJ3U brings them more
and more trouble of thig kind, while all
day long the corridors leading to their
offices are filled by a stream of place
hunters with anxious faces.
The Commission is not authorized to
employ a clerk or a messenger without
the approval of Mr. Lamar, the Secre
tary of the Interior, and their bills of
expenses will not be paid unless endors
ed by him. The Commissioners seem
to lie economically inclined, and in
stead of riding about the city in car
riages, they may be seen walking or us
ing the street cars.
The peremptory closing of the Wash
ington barrooms on Sunday under the
new ruling of the Commissioners of the
District, promises to be successful.
Last Sunday nearly every establish
ment dedicated to the liquor trallic was
hermetically sealed, and the few who
took chances were so harrassed that
they will in future acquiesce in the es
tablished ordinance. The Sunday drink
ing in Washington has been fearfully
great, and of course its results have
been proportionally disastrous.
The temperance people are jubilant
oyer the success of the Commissioners
in virtually suppressing the sale of
liquor in the saloons on Sunday, and a
certain District Judge lias gone a step
further. In the case of a hotel-keeper
brought before him, he decided that a
landlord could neither furnish liquor to
his guests in their rooms nor wine at
the table on Sunday.

CHICAGO-
Buildiuc Operations will be Sus

CHICAGO, April 3. — Six thousand
five hundred carpenters employed by
various contractors and shop owners
throughout the city and suburbs will
cease work to-morrow, and building op
erations in this com ty will be suspend
ed indefinitely. The leaders of the car
penters, who after a long struggle last
summer failed to carry out their de
mands for eight hours and an increase
of wages, decided then to renew the
contest, and think that now, when
building enterprise is reviving and car
penters are wanted, the time lias come
to make employers yield.

STARVATION IN TEXAS.
AUSTIN, TEXAS, April I—State Sen
ator Woodward, of Callioup county,
has received a statement from Atasco r
sa county sworn to by four responsible
citizens and endorsed by the county
judge, sheriff and county clerk, giving
the names of nineteen families in pre
cints three, liv e and six of that county,
whom the affiants declare are in a con
dition of starvation occasioned by the
drought* The number of persons in
each family is stated, showing a total
number of 100 persons. The paper
states that these families are unable to
procure sufficient l'ood, and are now la
sorting in some cases to eating carcass
es of cattle that have died from starva
tion and begging bread from their neigh
bors to sustain life. Those who would
aifl them if possible are themselves in
distress, aqd haye nothing that can be
spared. The signers of the statement
appeal for aid from the legislature, but
as nothing more can be expected from
that source, it is Jeft for the generous
and uioie fortunate of other counties to
render such aid as they can. The state
ment represent a a deplorable state of
affairs, and concludes by saying that
whatever is done should he done at
once.
