The Building and Loan Associations of |
our State have proved so beneficial to the |

enormous sums of money have been paid |
into the treasuries of the local institutions, |
and the Lomes of more than fifty thous-

this state are dependent upon the goed
faith and integrity of the management.
The building and loan association is dis-
tinctively a Pennsylvania institution, the
first effort of the kind in this country hav-
ing been organized in Philadelphiain 1831,

shows that last year there were 232,043
share-holders in the Pennsylvania associ-
ations, of whom 68,498 were borrowers,
showing that over seventy per cent. of the |
stock-holders used the associations for in-
vestment in the nature of savings banks.
There are also about 240 national building
and lon associations in the land. These
organizations transact a business in the
aggregate of over $450,000,000 per year, of
which nearly one-fifth is done in Pensylva-
nia. I have delt somewhat in detail on
this subject for the purpose of calling at-
tention to the necessity of more careful
state scrutiny of these institutions in the
interest of the share-holders, particularly
over foreign associations.
ment the banking department of the state
should be enlarged so as to include proper
superyision of these associations in order
that the savings of our great industrial
population may be adequately protected.
This can be done without any, or very lit- |

ter of good public roads, were to be assem-
bled in one department, it would not only
elevate and benefit the agricultural inter-
ests of the state, and assist the valuable
efforts of the State Board of Agriculture,
but also place the entire interest upon a
a broader and more comprehensive and
effective basis, and at probably little more
expense to the state than the present
establishment.
Similar reasons suggest the like action
with reference to otner branches of the
state government to which it is not
deemed necessary to refer in detail.
I understand that the Pennsylvania
Tax Conference, an organization repre-
senting the leading industrial interests of
the state, will be prepared after a most
thorough and searching investigation of
the subject, to present a report to the
General Assembly at its present session.
I express the hope that in any further ad-
justment of the revenue laws of the state,
care will be taken that no section, no class
of property, no condition of the citizen

calling will be required to bear more nor
less than its fair and equal proportion of

About Tramps.
A few days ago Protessor McCook,
of Trinity College, Hartford, Conn , de-
livered a lecture on the tramp. The
professor is credited with baving for
years made a study of this social prod-
uct, just as Borrow and Leland did of
the gypsies, though personal intercourse,
and his lecture on the tramp and his
ways had, therefore many interesting
and picturesque features.
To people who love to deal in facts
and statistics 1t may be startling to hear
that there are 46,000 able-bodied men
in this country who have forsworn work
and struck out for absolute freedom,
"and that this heroic action on their part
bas been met by their countrymen with
an annual provision for their support of
over $9,000,000, nearly one-half the cost !

him, in the words of Walt Whitman,
to “loaf and invite his soul.”
It must be said that there is some-
thing of the tramp in human nature,
and that if we could divest the modern
product of his coarse and vulgar fea-
tures, we might look upon him as we
do upon the nomadic rogue of fiction,
or of the stage. It may be, however,
that even Autolycus, that witty rogue
of a “Winter's Tale’’ was ragged, un-
washed and prosaic, and the Bedouins
who live the free life of the desert are
not likely to be all of such a character
that we could invite them to take dinner
There are some of us who
long to throw away our work once in a
while, and hie us to the weeds or the
rivers, hunt and fish, wear ragged
clothes and look tattered and disreputa-
ble. Even the best one of us who does
this may be mistaken for other than he
is, and we can imagine his feelings if,
having left civilization bebind. he
should be asked to saw wood to pay for
his breakfast.

Extensive Use of Chicory as a Substi-
tute for Coffee.
California Walnuts Supplanting the Imported
Variety.
One of the indicatious of economy is
shown by the extensive use ot chicory
in place of cottee. How strange in
deed it seems that while everything
else is 80 cheap coflee should be eoor-
mously dear. Hence the demand for
chicory which some people use entirely
as a substitute while others do so to a
partial extent. There are four brands
of Enzlish chicory now in market and
five of German, some of which come
in barrelsin bulk, while others are
done up ia paper for nicety. Chicory
is al=o cultivated in this country, but,
the domestic cannot compare with the
imported and is generally one-halt
cheaper. The usnal price of imported
chicory is one-fitth that of coffee
which makes it a cheap and healthy
substitute, but it pos:es no properties
similar to coffee and when in excess
may be detected by the dark color of
the infusion. Chicory however has
evidently come to stay—at least so
long as the coffee market keeps its
present quotations.
WALNUTS ALSO.
California having proved such a
rival to European vintners of fruit
growers, now intends to control the
walnnt markets also. I refer of course
not to “hickories.” but to the better
varieties known as “Grenoble” which
includes all of superior quality. The
California growers have been for sev-
eral years cultivating these varieties
and this fall they sent 250 carloads to
market. They are favored by the
short crop abroad which is not much
more than one-half the average. Itis
astonishing to see the great consump-
tion of what may seem to some a very
petty article. The Grenoble crop is
14.000 bales and the 250 carloads from
California make nearly 2,000 tone.

Heroic resolutions discouraging the ex-

by the Cotton Growers’ Protective Asso-

and the over-production of cotton was
recognized as one of the chief evils.
Every farmer is appealed to not to
plant so much cotton. A decrease of
not less than 25 per cent. was recom-

WasHINGTON, Jan. 8.—To-day’s
meeting of the finance committee was
characterized principally by an infor-

currency and financial questions, and,
while much was said of importance by
Democratic members of the committee,
those Republicans who entered into the
debate were not so active in any sugges-
tions as to a future course of policy in
dealing with the important questions re-
ferred to as to lead to an impression that
they would in any way deviate from the
course indicated in the recent proceed-
ings of their steering committee.

Jackson’s New Year's Victory.
The 1st of January, 1815, ended with
a blaze of glory resting over Jackson's
impoverished army at New Orleans Dur
ing the night of Dec. 381 the British
had placed in position 30 heavy cannon
behind ramparts constructed of earth
| and hogsheads filled with sugar. The
artillerists assigned to work them were
the best naval gunners of the fleet.
Jackson had ordered a review of his
troops for New Year’s day, and luckily
a heavy fog obscured the opposing lines
until 10 o’clock in the forenoon, when
the sky cleared and the British guns
opened with terrific execution, driving
the review columns to their quarters.
Jackson’s 20 pieces answered promptly,
and an artillery duel raged for two
hours at 600 yards, the 50 pieces mak-
ing an average of two shots a second.
Not until the enemy’s fire slackened did
Jackson order his gunners torest. The
moment the smoke lifted it was seen
that the formidable British line of the
morning had disappeared. In its place
lay a formless mass of broken guns,
crushed hogsheads and a heap of loam,
with the British soldiery who were to
have stormed Jackson’s batteries crouch-
ing in the ditches and the depressions of
the plain.
The hero of the day in the American
camp was the wealthy merchant volun-
teer, Judah Touro. He earried shot
from the magezine to the guns for Cap-
tain Humphrey’s battery and was struck
in the thigh by a 12 pound ball. Al-
though the surgeons despaired of his
life, he was saved through the devotion
of a comrade, to whom he bequeathed
one-half of his large fortune.
