OUR ANSWER.
At 'the lato Editorial Convention a
resolution was offered and discussed
relative to tho repeal of tho duty on
paper, 'which commanded the support
of all'tho Democratic editors present
and that of many of tho Republican
oncs.The Resolution has been attack
ed by-tho Radical papers, who show
both lamentable Ignoraricehnd unblush
ing hypocrisy in discussing tho subject.
In seeking to lower the duty' on paper
and on tho material which enters Into
Its composition, wo act for tho boneflt
of tlio 'entire public, and not for oar
own Vtass. Every man, woman and
chlldln the land is interested iri having
cheap'1 paper, because it' means cheaper
nowsbapers, cheaper magazines, and
cheaper books. While tho prices of
gralrf'nnd'other- necessaries' have come
down to near tho ante-war figures, pa
per, through a combination of monop.
olistsi Is nearly doublo the price Itwas
beforetho rebellion.
Duf oven supposo printers as a class
alono'wero benefited by thls'reduetion ;
aro not tncir interests ana rignui as
sacral as those of papermanufacturers
and Iron monopolists? The' combine
for ttfc'lr own protection, and wo see no
senso'tn'defendlng' for "then, principle
we daft noi'apply'to ourselves. -
The fact is,-however;-tliat under our
present odious tariff lawsytne"'duty on
soda and other articles "'which . ontor
largely Into Jthe 'manufacture'of paper
is sonugh that we, cannot successfully

Penna. Salt Co., get all tho benefit of
this tax. In 18C6 they got a patent on

of soda, (thongb:the' discovery was
made in 1850 by Prof. Thompson, ol
Copenhagen and the. process has long
been applied on a largo scale both at
Copenhagen anil 'Hamburg,) and as tho
raw material Is found In merchantable
qualities, only'In Greenland, they ob
tained rom tho .Danish Government
tho sole right to import It Into JNortti
and South America.. J. K. Moorhead,
who owns tho Penna. Salt Co., used his
position as a, member- of Congress, to
havolKryolIto almost .exempted from
duty, whilo foreign soda pays a duty of
twenty-five per cent. LJNot, content wnn
this,' Mr. :Moorhead Is now seeking to
have, Kryolite placed on thofreo list,
although the, .total amount of.duty it
paid, in 1869 "was only $7,000.
Kryolite, instead of being lightened,
should bo taxed as high as caustic soda,
or clso you keep the government put of
tho tax of one and a half cents per
pound, It Is, now paying,, and what does
1 1 gef in return? Nothing. Tho Penna.

Tho Bloomsburg- Bill.
Mr. Huclsnlow's bill for organizing
tho town of llloomsburg omits from
nmonc tho powers conferred upon the
town authorities certain clauses ot Iho
act of 3d of April 1831, regulating bor
oughs, to which It Is now proper to call
attention In otdcr that tho question of
omitting them shall bo duly consider
cd bolorrj this pas'sngtfoTthOblll.-' -
Tho 10th nrtlclo of section 2. omitted,

other Important powers for widening,
straightening nnd improving streets etc.
nnd for' removing obstructions thero-
from, contained In still other parts of
tho general Dorougn act, aro also re-en-nctcd
and applied. Tho question then
Is, whether tho omitted clauses nro
proper and necessary. They appear to
be suited only to densely settled and
wealthy parts of cities and towns, and
thoy1 must operate unequally nnd often
harshly. Tho oxtent of lot frontago
lu any case Is no proper criterion of the
value of tho adjoining property or of
tho ability1 of tho owner to contributo
to a public improvement. An unim
proved lot or one of small valuo may
hayo an Cxtcnsivo front, tho grading,
curbing, paving and guttering ol which
may bo very expensive, whilo a very
valuable property in another location
may bavo but small frontago, and bo 11
able, to but small expense" for Its Im
provement. Then ngalu, tho lot owner
has no volco in tho proceeding by which
ho is charged with a burden; ho is not
heard in any regular manner when the
.decreo goes against him, or oven when
Hens aro, to bellied upon his property
In a town like ours considering it
with its extended limits tho omitted
clauses may thoroforo be regarded as too
stringent and severe; nt all events they
should bo carefully considered before
they aro excepted.
T'ho 8thi section of-tho Bloomsburg
bill "may be regarded as a substitute for
tho omitted clauses of 'the general bor
ough lawsri It'authorizes'tho President
of tho Town .Council to ent6rinto'wrlt
ton contracts with property owners by
Which the expenso of paving, grading
and improving the' streets, sido-walks
&o. adjoining or contiguous to their
property .'shall bo divided between such
owners and tho public This provision
extends to the wholo street as well as
tho side. way and is' not confined to tho
mere frontage of a lot; Tho undivided
advantage from "an Improvement may
thus be taken Into account and a proper
contribution for it settled by agreement
before tho Improvement is made. If tho
law IS to go further and compel tho cit
izen to contributo to improvements In
front of his property It appears to us
that the private ad van tago should first
bo ascertained by some form ofregular
valuation and then tho assessment and
burden Imposed should bo clearly with
in tliat limit.

On January Sat, Jlr. Buekalew read
in p'jacp.a bill to repeal so much of an
net of tho last session as relates to tho
fencing of.rallroads in Bradford county,
anil' thereupon Chalfant of the JJanvllle

usjl appears In the' volumo of laws yyiv)
simply a fraud as it did not pa&i the

eat legislation is to bo upheld; Tho mer
its of the question of fencing railroads
Is not Involved id this repeal, though

We clip from txo Mauch Chunk Times
tho facts of a caso in that borough whero
an unreasonable Imposition was at
tempted to be placed upon somo of the
citizens under color of power from (he
very clauses omitted in tho Bloomsburg
bill. It Is true' tho particular wrong
intended In tbatcabo was not sanction
ed by tho courts, but tho question was
one of doubt and was only settled after
prolonged and' expensive litigation.
And then, the Council, under tho Idea
derived from the borough law that they
arp the masters of the pooplo and ought
to bo allowed to sport with their prop
erty at pleasure, applied to tho Legisla
ture and obtained an act to sanction
and confirm their proceedings. We
may bo admonished by this caso that
power ought not to be incautiously
granted to such bodies.

to tho ring they legislated him out of
tho concern anu added fifty cents per

tho Daughters will find thousands of

Mr. Seward's little real estate specu
lation In tho northwest does not seem
to lQ a very remunerative one from all
accounts', as a statement sent to Congress
lately by tho Secretary of tho Treas
ury shows tho disbursement in Alaska,
bIiico tho Incorporation of tho Territory,
tq have been $597,789, and tho receipts
from Customs and the Post Office, $21 ,
850. If a few of tho Icebergs from tbo
coast could be floated down so as to
help us out during the coming summer,
in tho way of ice, it would glvo us all
abetter oplnlou of tho territory than
wo have now.
