Terns 2.00 A Year,in Advance
Bellefonte, Pa., Dec. 14, 1894,
For more then twenty vears the Re-
publicars have prevented a reappor-
tionment of the representsiive districts
of this State, in complete disregard of
the requirement of the constitution in
that respect. This indifierence to con-
stitutional provision hes sprang from |
a desire to maintain a gerrymander
that has been to their advantage.
When charged with this wrong do-
ing they reply, as they did during the
recent campaign, that they passed ap-
portionment bills, but a Democratic
Governor prevented their going into ef-
fect. Their insincerity in this matter
was shown in their giving euch a
partisan character to their reappor-
tionment as they knew would neces
sarily meet with the disapproval of a
Democratic Governor. That is what
they wanted. They were corient to
maintain their old gerrymander by
offering oue that was a goed deal
worse.
Tt needs but little examination of the
comparative population of the districts
to show what a'travesty on:popular rep.
resentation the ;jpresent apportionment
of the State presents. Take, for ex-
ample, the senatorial districts. The
population to which a Senator is ac-
corded ranges from 48,051, in the Leb-
anon district, to 137,211, in the Berks
district. In the one three times as
many constituents are required for a
Senator as in the other. ‘Gr in other
words, Democratic Berks, in propor
tion to its population, has but one!
third the representation that Republi:
can Lebanon has. The eatire list of’
Senatorial districts is full of such in-|
equalities. Luzerne, which is usually,
Democratic, with a population of 171
489 is allowed no more representation
in the Senate than Republican Craw-
ford with its 65,203 inhabitants. In
Republican Erie 84,908 constituents,
have as much weight in the upper
branch of our state Legislature as ill,’
372 in the Democratic district of Cen-
tre, Clinton and Clearfield. In the
lapse of time, since the last apportion-,
ment was made, inequalities have
grown up even in the comparisons be-
tween Republican senatorial districts,
asin the Delaware district 74,357 con-
stituents furnish a Semator, while in
Allegheny county 137,864 are required
for that purpose.
This unequal representation in ithe;
present apportionment is mot confined
to sematorial districts, but it is just as,
bad in regard to the lower house of the
state Legislature and representatives in
Congress. The evil bas come from a
determination to maintain a bad
gerrymeader, resulting even in an in-
equality between Republican districts,
which of course, the Republicans did
not originally intend.
Are we likely to have anything bet-!
ter now that the State government is
again completely in the hands of the’
Republicans? Apportionment bills;
will probably be passed, butit is not:
unreasonable to expect they will be as!
much of a burlesque on the principle!
of popular representation as are those:
by which the various representative’
districts of the State have for so many |
years been apportioned.
He Should Do as Pattison Did.
A deputation representing the State
Firemen’s Association called on Gov: |
.eraor-elect Hasrinegs the other day to |
sound him on the way he would re-
ceive a measur to peogion veteran fire-
mea. The Governor-‘e-be received bis
callers cordially, but was disinclined to
say much about his probable action,
shoud such a bill passithe Legislature
and come before him for approval.
General Hastings showed excellent
judgment in not encouraging any hope
for the enactment of such a law and
should he be called upon, in his capaci-
ty as Governor, to pass upon & bill to
pension veteran firemen we trust he
will follow the example of his distin-
guished predecessor and veto it.
While we have every sympathy for
aged and infirm firemen we eannot see
what claim they can have to a State's
bounty. The idea of pensioning them
is equally ae foolish as that of pension-
ing judges—which is being agitated by
some people who, unmindful of where
the funds are to come from, would es-
tablich a pension eystem that would
eventually extend to all classes and
conditions of men,
Firemen, who are deserving of help,
should be cared for by the cities in
whose service they have been and the
State would be doing a wrong thing to
accept them as wards.

——Thepapers all over the country
are roundly abusing the Yale foot-ball
association becaus: it has declared its
determination not to include the Uni-
versity of Pennsylvania in its cham-
pionship series tor 1895. Yale hasa
perfect right to act just as she pleases
in thie matter and as she announces
that no claim is to beiimade to the
America foot-ball championship be-
cause she intends playing whom she
pleases, there is no reasonable ground
for complaint from any source. If
Yale prefers playing with Princeton
and Harvard that is her affair and no

Financial Legislation.
It Is Expected That a Sound, Flexible Mone-
tary Law Cer Be Made.
WasaiNeToN, Dec. 11.—Notwith-
standing the threats of vigorous opposi-
tion which the silver senators are
making, there is a growing impression
that a financial bill acceptable to the
administration may be got through
that body before the close of the ses
gion. There are persistent hiots that
an understanding on the subject may be
arrived at between the scund-mouney
Democrats and Republicans, and that
concerted action may be taken by them,
against which a silver filibuster would
be umavailing.
It is felt that, as in the contest for
the repeal of the purchasing clause ot
the Sherman act, there will be a steady
increase in the pressure from the busi-
ness men of the country for a eettle-
ment of the financial question, which
will be joined in even by the silver sec-
tions, and before which the silver sena-
tors will have to give way. The argu-
ment will be made, too, that the ques-
tion of silver or gold is not inyolved in
the present scheme for a recasting of
the currency laws of the country, and
that this reform would be just as neces-
sary were the country on a silver basis
as it is under prevailing conditions.
Of course the assertion, now fre-
quently heard, wili be repeated inces-
santly, that the main object of the pro-
posed currency retorm is to side track
thesilver issue. But those who make
this assertion. have a hard time finding
arguments to support it, and will not
be able to make much of an impres-
sion on thinking men. It is already
apparent thatthe bulk of the southern
Democrats in the senate, or in the
house, will join in support of a finan-
cial bill on the lines of Secretary Car-
lisle’s proposal, while of the northern
Democratic senators, only those will
oppose it who oppose everything that
they believe the administration desires,
no matter what its merits or what the
public necessity for it may be.

that recently a slick individual with a

that vicinity, after which he announced
to the farmers that he would form a
class for the purpose cf graduating
veterinary surgeons.
As a natural consequence, the farm-
ers wanted to know how to doctor a
sick horse and gladly gave the three dol-
lars, to become members of the class.
The first lesson and organization was
effected in the blacksmith shop. An-
other class was organized at Quiggle-
ville and a third at Salladasburg, all
having about one hundred scholars
with the admission fee paid in. The
storm interfered with a second meeting
but did not interfere with the departure
of the teacher, doctor and lecturer to
parts unknown.

casts of the storm wave to cross the con-
tinent from 10th to 14th, and the next
will again reach the Pacific coast about
the 15th, after an absence of about twen-
ty-nine days, cross the western moun-
tains by close of 16th, the great central
valleys from 17th to 19th, and the east-
ern states about the 20th.
This disturbance will develop & storm
cantre or low barometer of more than
usual force and dimensions but the
amount of snow and rain from it will
not be large, except possibly on the
south Atlantic coast, where rains will
probably be about the average.
The path of this storm will be by way
of the lakes, causing warm weather over
most parts ot the United States, and the
cool wave to follow is not expected to
reach far into the southern states.
A warm wave will cross the western
mountains about tha 15th, the great cen-
tral valleys about the 17th and the east-
ern states about the 18th. A cool wave
will cross the western mountains about
the 18th, the great central valleys about
the 20th and the eastern states about
the 22nd.
Calculations were that the first and
last weeks of December would average
coolest and the week ending 18th warm-
est. But little rain or snow is expected
during the middle third of the month,
while precipitation was expected to be
about or above the average during the
first and last weeks.

Tue INGENIOUS DEVICE OF A YOUNG
INnvENTOR.— Walter Wilhelm, a 19 year
old Buffalo boy, has caused quite a flurry
in the electrical world by a novel in-
vention which he has just completed.
By it all telegraph lines can be con-
verted into telephones and the dashes
and dots of the ordinary ticker will be
replaced by the actual voice at the other
end of the line.
To bring about this actual transmis-
gion of a human voice by the use of
simple telegraph instruments he has
brought a microphone into play. With
it he greatly increases the disturbance
the voice produces on the diaphragm of
the transmitter and this increases the
sound waves per second which set the
ordinary telegraph ticker working so
fast that instead of being able to recog-
nize distinct ticks its sound becomes
that of the voice disturbing it from the
other end of the line. The invention
was discovered by accident.
Young Wilhelm being the proprietor
of a private telegraph line in Buffalo?
which was used for telephoning also
was talking, with an improved
transmitter—that is one in which he
had placed a microphone—to a friend,
the conversation set every tele-
graph instrument on the line going
and all the people heard the conversa-
tion as distinctly as if it had come out
of a phonograph.
The inventor iz a son of William
Robert Morrison, of Bellefonte, and { Wilhelm HEsq., of Buffalo, N. Y., and
a grandson of the late Bernard Lauth,
of Howard, this county. He has been
considered an ‘‘expert’” on the telegraph
and telephone for several years, though
ship. and Mary E. Confer, of Howard | bis invention has jumped him into a
| wonderful prominence in the scientific
George J. Burchfield, of Alioona, and world, for one so young in years. Itis
possible that he will show as much of
Alfred Karstetter, and Mrs. Emma the inventive genius that so distinguish-
ed his late grand-parent.
