    COLUMBIAN AND DEMOCRAT. BLOOMSBTJRG, COLUMBIA COUNTY, PA.
The Columbian.
BLOOMSBUKG, PA.
FRIDAY, MAY 27, 1887.
The report of the conference com
miltco on the wholesale liqaor licenee
hill wm adopted by 101 yeas to G9 naj-f.
The following are the rates for whole
sale : In cities of the first, second and
third classes, $500 ; in all other cities,
8300 ; in borough, S200 ; in townships
$100, which anm shall be paid into the
slate treasury. One quart is the limit ;
brewers, distillers and manufacturers
shall not sell leas than one gallon. The
ratta for bottlers are, in cities of the
first, second and third classes, 200,
and in all other cities, boroughs and
township, 100.
Batldina operations in Chicago,
which had begun this year most prom
isingly, hate been brought almost to a
standstill br strikes of workinsmen.
The employers generally are shutting
down rather than Yield to the demands
for higher pay, or shorter time, or for
havine Saturday as payday, which is
one of the principal grievances. The
prospect is that many thousands of
workmen and laborers, with families,
will be reduced to penury, and trade
of every kind will suffer, unless the
trade unions make some concession or
submit the difficulties to arbitration.
A natural gas explosion in the Erie
burial cao works demolished one of
the main buildings and fired the whole
institution Saturday last. The gas
came from a well at high pressure and
burst a pipe, and when the watchman,
Joseph 1L Greshwind, entered the store
house the gas exploded with a fright-
iul report, wrecking the building and
neighboring structures. Greshwind
was rendered unconscious, and was
taken out by people who rushed to the
scene, ills companion, John iiager-
man, who was in the building, has not
been found, and is believed to be lost.
The estaolishment was the property of
Dr. MacMullen, and estimated with the
stock, to be worth 65,000 upon which
there was an insurance of 325,000,
principally in London, New York and
Hartford companies. The plant being
situated out of tho city was beyond the
water limits.
The general interest in Queen Vic
toria's "jubilee" will increase the fervor
with which the loyal Briton always
celebrates the Queen's birthdav. She
will have been upon the throne fifty
years next Jnne, and yet, remarkable
as this long reign has been, Victoria is
not a very old woman. She is now 63
or just the age of Elizabeth at the
death of Essex. Elizabeth lived to be
70, but her eventful and glorious reign
was two years short of the half cental y
which her distant successor reasonably
expects to attain. While Victoria has
reigned she has not ruled, in the sense
in which Elizabeth ruled. The business
of a Queen is less exciting in these
days, and her peaceful domestic life
has also, no doubt, had much to do
with the prolonging of her days. When
it is remembered that Gladstone is ten
years older than the Queen and that
the Emperor William has turned 90,
both of these old men having put a
Eood deal more hard work into their
lives, it appears unlikely that the Pnnce
of Wales may have some years more to
wait He is already past the age at
which he can hope to enter upon a
very long reign.
HIGH LI0EHSE.
There are in Columbia county forty
hotels and twenty-three restaurants.
Under the old law hotels paid a license
fee of fifty dollars and restaurants
twenty dollars, all of which went to
the state. Under the new law hotels
in boroughs pay a license fee of 8150,
of which the borough receives thiee-
fiftbs, or $00, the state one-fifth and
the county one-fifth, or 30 each. There
are four hotels in Bloomsburg, and
from these the town will receive $360,
and the county 120. Berwick has
three hotels, and will get 270, and
the county 90. Centralis has three
hotels, and it will get 270, and tb
county 90. Bloomsburg has three
restaurants, from which it will receive
270, and the county 90. Berwick
has three and will get the same, and
the county 90. Centralia has seven
and will get 630, and the county 210.
There are thirty hotels in the townships
where the fee is 875, of which the
county gets one fourth. These will
pay tue county lnere are
thirteen restaurants in the townships
that will pay the county 243.75. The
townships receive one half of the
license fee, to be appled to keeping
roads in repair. From this it will be
seen that Bloomsburg will receive from
license the sum of 630, Berwick 540
Centralia, 900. From all the licenses
the county will get 1,196.25. This
estimate is made on the present number
of licenses. I be new law may reduce
the number.
A Month of the Inter-State Iiw.
A comparison of the earnings
ninety-nine principal railways in the
United States for the month of April
of the current year with the eamo period
in loso snows an increase in gross earn
ings of 2,374,899, or 10.3 per cent.
These statiMics cover the first month
in which the inter-State commerce law
was in effect and demonstate that how,
ever adversely other interests havo been
affected by the new law the railways
navo not been getting letu
These figures are all the more signi
Scant when considered in connection
with nndisputed fact that tho effect
the new law was to decrease the gross
amount ot ireigbt shipments. 1'eopl
hesitated to ship freely because of new
rates which were higher than before or
because the railway companies were
dilatory in making their rates public,
tons rendering snippers uncertain as
what the rates mould be. The concl
biou is irresistible- that the increase
of more than sixteen per cent, in gross
earnings is uue to a general increase
rales of more than that amount.
Assuming that the earnings of April
jhho, were sutncient to make the bust
nes8 of these railways fairly profitabl
the marked advance in rates indicated
by the figures for April, 1887. can
hardly be regarded as wise. An intel
ligent reading public will not be dig
posed to lay the advance in rates so
much to any deftct in the law as to
desire on the part of the railways
made it odious. If tho compani

WASHIH0T0H LETTER
from wr Regular CwrwpooJent.1
Wasni.iotos. D. C. ,My 2.3rd, 1837.
To-day morn than a thousand tents
hitcn the greensward that stretches
around the Washington Monument
The troop are now all here who intend
ed to participate in the National Drill,
and they represent the Alabama, Ar
kansas, Connecticut, Colorado, Dakota,
Indiana, Illinois, Iowa, Kansas, Ken
tucky, Louisiana, Maine, Maryland,
jiaMacnusetu, jUicbigan, jiiinnesoia,
Mississippi, Missouri, New Hampshire,
New Jersey, New York, North Caro
lina, Ohio. Ithode Island, Texas, Ten
nessee, Virginia, Washington Terri
torr and the District of Columbia.
The Dnll opened this morning, but
the day was consumed by some formal
ities such as naming the camp, issuing
orders, receiving the latest arrivals of
troop, etc., and this evening there was
dress parade by all of the organizi.
lions encamped, but the competitive
drill begins to-motrow. The soldiers
here represent the flower of the Nation
al Uuard ot tneir States, and many oi
the commands are noted for their ex
cellent discipline, and won trophies in
State and interstate drills.
Such a camp has not been seen in
this country since the veterans of the
civil war broke their camp in '65.
Now the soldiers of the North, South,
East and West assemble in one camp
and contend in friendly strife for the
trophies of the peaceful drill ground,
the week will be exceedingly lively in
Washington, it will be tilled with
events, brilliant street pageants, attrac
tive drills, reviews and street parades.
Washington can boast in superlative
language of many things. It has the
largest public buildings, tne most beau
tiful streets, the widest and the smooth
est pavemcntsthe finest public grounds,
the greatest number of shade trees and
fountains and statues, the highest mon
ument and many other things the
most wonderful and best and "biggest"
of their kind, and now it adds to the
list the largest competitive drill. Up
to this time the greatest gathering of
the kind was "Camp K. C Urnm in
Mobile, two years ago, but the Nation
al Drill exceeds that more than three
fold in the number of military bodies
that will take part
The good people of Washington are
rejoicing that the order permitting the
sale of intoxicating liquors on the
drill ground has been revoked. The
bar privilege of the ground has been
sold by the Drill committee for 1,800,
but it is settled that odIv temperance
drinks shall be dispensed at tl.e refresh
ment counter under the grand stand
this week. The revocation of the privi
leges has been attributed to the influ
ence of the President through the efforts
of some ladies of the W. T. C. U. who
called npon him to interfere, and also
to a suggestion from the Commissioner
of public grounds, to the effect that
the War .Department, (to which the
drill ground belongs) would be grati
fied if the committee would exclude in
toxicating liquor. But from whatever
source the influence may have come,
most people were pleased with the final
decision and action of the National
Drill Committee.
After the close of the Drill the Presl
dent will take a vacation of about ten
days, accompanied by Mrs. Cleveland,
Colonel Lamont and his family. They
will go to saranac .Lake, rew York,
where the fishing is said to be good at
ibis season. It is said tbey will go on
tne second ot June, which ts tbe anm
vereary or the 1 residents marriage.
Doubtless he feels the need of rest, and
the event could not, probably, be cele
brated in a way more agreeable to him.
J. be hnancial situation has been de
manding a great deal of the President's
time and attention of late, as, indeed,
it is the most important anestion now
before him. On last Wednesday nigbt
the secretary ot the Treasury remained
at the Whito House until two o'clock
in the morning, talking over tho matter
witn mm. Me is being urged by the
advocates of tariff reduction to call an
extra session of 0ngress early in the
fall lor the purpose of considering rev
enue measures. Bat Secretary Fair
child is so safe and conservative a
manager that there can be no real
cause of alarm concerning the stingency
of the money market, whether Congress
is specially convened or not. uesiaes
the Secretary's powers are sufficient
under existing laws to enable him to
ward off any threatened danger. In
the worst contingency that can be im
agined be is at liberty to step into the
open market and buy bonds tor liov

The Last Bond OalL
The Secretary of the Treasury issued

tion of three per cent, bonds to the a
mount of 19,717,500 being the last of
the three per cents, issued under tho
act of July 12, 1S82. The principle and
interest of these bonds become due un
der the call July 1, 1887, and interest

iue wen intentioned mistake was
made, however, and now tbo country
is confronted with the alternative of
reducing its taxes very materially, or
of seeing an annual surplus of not less
than 125,000,000 accumulate in the
Treasury during the tbree and a half
years intervening between this and
1891. If the more than 400,000,000
which would thus bo withdrawn from
tho business of tho country should
cause no serious inconvenience np to
that time, tbe troublo would only be
defencd, as the 250.600.000 of fou

leave nearly as much more in tho Treas

This community has been visited by
a series of mishaps of a very serious
nature during the past week. On Mon
day Mr. A. W. Cragle was driving hit
team attached to a wagon down the
Fuhintfcreek road, and when near the
St Gabriel's Church the pin in the end
of tbe tongue came out which allowed
tbe tongue to slip through the neck
yoke and the wagon to run against the
horses. This frightened the team
which toon became unmanageable and
ran down the road at a rapid rate un
til they came to Ell Hess' where they
attempted to turn in toward tho barn,
and in doing to threw Mr. Cragle out
The res nit was some pretty severe
bruises about the head, but at this writ
ing he has about recovered.
Early Tuesday night M. R. Smith

wife making
