Bishop Ireland, of tho Roman Catholic
diocese of Minnesota, has taken a very
radical new departure In the temperance
crusade, by forbidding members of tho
church from keeping saloons, tending
bars, or furnishing liquor to the public In
any manner whatever, under penalty of
excommunication. If the temperance
movement, which has been growing more
active of late in the Catholic Church takes
this form it Is likely to bo quite effective,
and should Bishop Ireland's policy be
adopted and enforced throughout the coun
try, a great many saloons will bo shut np
or tho Catholic Church will loose a great
muuy of Its members. Ex-
Wm. G. Morris, Collector of Customs at
Sitka, Alaska says he is confident that thu
very rieh mineral deposits of Alaska can
not fall to attract great attention In the
near future. The lodes found at the base
of thu mountains, which can be traced up
their sides, are being worked by surface
diggers to great advantage. Last season n
small force of men made over !?2!)0,000.
Considerable Pacific coast capital is finding
its way into Alaska, and has already
brought into prominence lines of mines as
large as the whole Comstock lode. Mr.
Morris believes that the mines would show
the largest body of ore in sight In the
world, and says that Eastern capitalists
have already sent machinery for the pur
pose of developing the great mineral re
gions of Alaska Ex.
Tiiere is war in the Tidewater Pipe line
company, whosu pipes run through this
county. It seems that at the election held
last week, the votes cast by H. L. Taylor
a Co., were cast on what is termed the
cumulative corporation plan. The Union
Oil Company before the election, which was
held on the regular day, obtained legal ad
vice on the subject nnd claim their rights.
They owning one-third of tho stock of thu
Tidewater organization, demanded one
year ago at the election to be represented by
the election of one of their number ou tho
Board, but at the last election they weru re
fused while the old Board were continued
in office. At repeated times they refused to
show the books or workings of the Institu
tion to theso owners of stocks. Tho new
Board claim that the Tidewater Pipo Lino
Company could make no showings of earn
ed money, so they weru determined to rule
or ruin.
The ofllce of assessor Is no doubt a try-
ing one, and even with tho exercise of the
greatest care and judgment it is impossible
to make returns that will please everybody.
Only men having knowledge of the falue
of real estatu should bu selected for the
position. There is now, as there always Is,
considerable complaint with the triennial
assessment, nnd it is evident in some cases
that there has been cither carelessness or
partiality. There Is too often u marked
difference in the valuation of properties of
apparently the same value. In some town
ships ono standard Is followed, and lu
others, another, so that citizens of the dif
ferent sections do not pay thu same propor-
tion of taxes.
In Briarcreek the assessors took only 33
per cent, of the valuo of property, whllo
In other townships it is supposed to bo CO
per cent. Of course the additional 17 per
cent, must be put on to make tho taxation
equal to tho rest of tho county. The only
remedy for these difficulties Is to comply
strictly with the law, and assess property
by Its actual value, taking every man's
selling price for ids property us thu basis
of taxation. By the present system, how
ever fairly conducted, there is an inequality
In taxation that Is unjust.

The bill nbout to be introduced In the
Pennsylvania Legislature will enable town
ships or boroughs located at or near the
border of one county to annex to the coun
ty adjoining, and thus make It more con
venient to reach the county seat for the
transaction of business. The bill provides
that if one fourth of all the qualified voters
of such township or borough sign a peti
tion for such annexation and present it to
the court, notice shall be given by the
court, to the resident judge or judges of
the county to which they purpose to annex,
whereupon nn election is to be held and if
a majority voto in favor of such annexa
tion the result shall be certified to the Court
of the County in which such townships or
boroughs nrc located, whereupon the Court
of that county shall order an election by
the people of such districts in question,
and if a majority of two thirds vote for an
nexation, the decision becomes binding
nnd annexation complete. The bill pro'
vides, however, that no county can be re.
duccd by such proceedings below one hun
tired thousand inhabitants, and that no
territory located within ten miles of the ex
sting county seat can be detached and an
nexed to another countv.

The viewers appointed by the court to
view the situ for a county bridge across
tho Susquehanna at this place, met on
Monday. They were Rohr McIIenry of
Benton, David S. Brown of Main, and
George W. Supplee of Madison. Tho
morning was occupied In examining the
proposed location. In the afternoon tho
viewers sat in the reading room of the Ex-
change Hotel and listened to arguments
for and against tho bridge. Rev. D. J,
Waller was the first speaker in favor of
the petition. Hu was followed by W. H.
Rhawn Esq , of Catawlssa, who opposed it.
Remarks wcro also mado favorably by
William Ncal, W. F. Creasy and O. G.
Barklcy Esq., while W. II. Smith Esq., of
Berwick, and Col. S. Knorr favored a ncg
alive report. The substance of the argu-
ments in favor of the proposition was that
Bloomsburg being the county seat and the
centre of trade, al citizens of tho county
have occasion to comu here frequently, nnd
many on tho other side of tho river nro un
nblo to get hero part of the time without
driving cither to Berwick or Catawlssa,
where they aro obliged to pay a heavy
toll. When the water is very high or very
low, nnd In tho winter, the ferries nre use-
less. A bndgo at this point would be of
great benefit not only to Bloomsburg but
to nil the Fishlngcreek region whero thcro
nro largo quantities of lumber tliatcmld
bu taken to market at much less rates over
the N. & W. B. railroad than are now
given by tho road on this aide. It would
also be a great advantago to all those who
carry produce to the coal regions. To all
the business men of this section It would
make a great saving In frelclits. On tho
other hand It was claimed that tho erection
of a free brldgo would not be of any ad.
vantage to thu pcoplo generally outside of
Bloomsburg, and it would bo unfair to
jnuko thu county pay for a brldiro that
would benefit this town alone. Tho
bridges at Berwick and Catawlssa, and
the'.ferrles, afford the people nil tho faclll
ties that they desire, nnd If a brldgo Is
built here, the citizens of Catawlssa, Mif
flin and Berwick have the same right to
demand frco bridges for their nccommoda
tlon. On tho onu hand it was charged
that the bridge wus asked for only by a
few meu la UlooniBburg, and this evoked
the reply that no one wm opposing It but
tho stockholders in tho Catawlssa and Ber
wick bridges.
After tho speeches, tho viewers retired
and upon consultation decided to report
against the bridge.
Among thu Interested spectators were
Judge Hughes, Dr. J. K, Robins, J. F
Prattler, of Catawlssa, W. M, Monroe of

boy living In Lako street n few
weoks ago donned a pair of black stockings.
In some manner ho chafed one of his heels,
nnd the coloring from tho stocking got Into
the wound. Soon tho foot nnd limb began
to swell 'perceptibly, A physician was
called who pronounced It a case of blood
poisoning. All efforts lo gel tho boy's
blood frco of the poison failed, nnd he died
from the efTects of tho trouble. Tho foot

Tho roynl party reached Charleston
nt 7 o'clock Friday evening, tho trnln
being thrco hours behind time. Tliuro
war a denso crowd ot pcoplo al tho
railroad station, and another largo
crowd at tho Charleston Hotel, wlioro
rooms had been encased for tho party.
Tho princess ami marquis wero met at
tho station by tho British con
sul nnd Captain Domville, of II. II. S.
Dido, both in full uniform. Thoy
wcro then driven to tho hotel, whoro
thoy wcro ushered into a privato par
lor. In tlcfercnco to tho wishes of tho
princess thcro were no formal ceremo
nies of welcomo on tho part of tho mu
nicipal authorities, lho princess is
very much fatigued after tho lone
journey, and kept her berth in tho
sleeping car until tho trnin neared
Uharleston. it is announced officially
that slio will remain thero at least n
week, if not longer, before alio embarks
on thu Dido tor tho licrmudas, and it
seems not altogether improbable that
she may winter there, although no pos
itive statements to this enect havo been
made by any of tho roynl party. Tho
royal suite numbers eight porsons, in
cluding Lorno nnd Louise, anil aro
comfortably quartered in n suito of ten
rooms nt tho hotel. They dined in a
private dining room, fitted up espec
ially for them nt 8:30 that evening.
The princess is accompanied by her
physician, by whoso advico her futuro
movements will probably bo guided.
Tho Marquis of Lorno will probably
return to Canada next week.
Hofore leaving Richmond tho mar
quis had a row with tho Coast lino au
thorities about his bill. 1 hoy charged
him S'JUO for towing tho princess's two
cars iroin iiictimond to unaneston, a
distanco of 400 miles, whereas tho
Chesapeake and Ohio had onlv charged
So00 for bringing them from Cincin
nati to Richmond, twico the distanco.
Tho marquis swore that because ho was
rich he would not bu gouged, and so ho
bought eighteen tickets, tho whole of a
Pullman, and putting therein tho rest
of the party as could bo conveniently
carried, he left the special train be
hind. Intensely cold weather has set in all
over tho country. In tho Northwest
all the ordinary avocations of life have
been brought to suspension, In Colo
rado, Minnesota and Iowa the railways
have been compelled to cease, as it is
impossible for human endurance to
keep tho tracks clear. The cold wave
is bioadening as it comes Eastward,
and takes a belt including Michigan.
Ohio nnd New York. As far South as
Charleston the weather has been un
precedentedly severe. Even California,
which knows nothing of real winter
weather, has been visited by snow.
Tho harshness of the winter, if tho ad
age does not fail, will bo compensated
by an early Spring, a fructuous Sum
mer and an easy Autumn, mild enough
and long enough to garner exceptional
ly heavy crops. Press.
Tho stato paid $1,000 to inaugurate
Governor Ilartranft tha first time, and
$4,200 to induct Governor Hoyt into
oflice. Tho installation of Governor
Pattison did not cost the Common
wealth a single dime. This is practi
cal reform.
The great superiority of DR.
BULL'S COUGH SYRUP over

by the immense popular demand
for that old established remedy.
