The Bradford Argu published at Towanda by E. Ashman Parsons, ap peared last week with a handsome new heading, a new dress of type, and a general change in its make up. It ,s most decidedly improved, and its editor promises to infuse new life and interest in his paper, which has always been a well conducted Journal and one of our most valued exchanges. With the present political situation in Bradford county, where the entire re publican ticket was defeated in Nov ember, a result which the A njus took a leading part to accomplish, there arc i-reai opportunities before that paper, and its alert editor proposes to seize them. Success to him. The new County Commissioners, Court Treasurer, Associate Judge, Register and Recorder, and Prothono 'ary will be sworn in on Monday next. Vll are new hands except Register ind Recorder Campbell, who succeeds iiimself, and Commissioner Ritten iiouse..

The prospect that the year 1S9J will see the entire State debt wiped Yut has not been lost sight of by the farmers of the state, and they are seeking to have their local taxation or school purposes reduced by advo ating an increase of the State ap iropriation for common schools from p2,ooo,ooo, the present figure, to $4,--00,000 as soon as the debt is paid. This they argue can be done without ncreasing the rate of taxation for .tate purposes. While the amount appropriated by hi state for school purposes has been oubled within a few years, there is . 1 doubt that it can be doubled under i present system of state taxation as on as the state debt is finally paid, that should appear to be the best bject to which the state money could e applied. Still if the bulk of the :hool funds are raised by local taxa on the tax-payers will be likely to ike a greater personal interest in the :hools and secure better schools as . le result, Apart from the question as to .'hether the bulk of the school funds liould be raised by local or state tax tion, there seems to be a necessity or liberal expenditures for other pur ioses as soon as the state can afford . A new capitol is needed urgently. The existing buildings at Harrisburg re totally inadequate and should be '.placed by buildings in some measure roportionate to the wants of the pub c business of the second State of the ,'nion. The erection of those build . gs must of necessity cover a term of ears, and the surplus caused by the nal payments of the state debt could ; profitably diverted to this purpose )r some time. Neither would it be wise to involve e question of doubling the state iool fund with that of the equaliza jn of taxation. The farmers com ain that they pay for local purposes -pon real estate a much higher tax ite than is collected for state pur ges of corporate and personal prop :ty.. The simpler plan would be to ik a'l property for local purposes. In iat way the . necessary school funds iukl be raised and the farmer's hool tax rate be reduced quite as cell as by doubling the state appro :aliort. The danger is that the in vied Mate appropriation for schools y be used to defeat the more im--tant measure for the equalization taxation which the farmers will urge consideration ut once. Pass a :v tax bill and let the state surplus cs alone until there is a burplus imes. WASHINGTON LETTER. From our Itrgiilnr Coms.ondent. Washington, D. C. Dec. 29 1890. Mr. Harrison is no longer confining himself to secretly manipulating the wires that are being laid to secure him a renomination in 1S9J. He in now openly a candidate; and no republican of prominen c who visits him leaves the White House without being made aware of that fact, and he is losing no opportunity of making deals to secure delegates to the next republican nat ional convention. Ex-Senator lkuce to whom he gave the second best local office in the District of Columbia; ex Representative Lynch, whom he made one of the Auditors of the Treasury, and a negro named Europe, who holds a position in the Post office depart ment, are relied upon, to control the negro delegates from the South, and his own State has he thinks, been made solid for him by his making friends with Treasurer Huston, who some time ago tendered his resignation in a huff because he thought himself and wife had not been treated with sufficient consideration by Mr. and Mrs. Harri son. Secretary Rusk, who has within a week taken occasion to publically an nounce not only that he was not a candidate, but his support of Mr. Har rison, is confident that he can secure a solid delegation from his State, and the other members of the cabinet are all working to do the same thing in their respective states. This has been made much easier by the fact that the result of the recent election together with the attitude of the republican leaders in Congress on the Force bill and other matters to which he is oppos ed has removed all desire on the part of Mr. Blaine forf'e nomination. He doesn't believe that there is hardly a a possibility that any republican can be elected, therefore he will interpose no objection to Mr. Harrison's being vindicated by a renomination. Senator Stockbridge, of Michigan, feels about a hundred per cent larger than he did a week ago. He is cred ited with having had Judge Brown, of his State, nominated to the vacancy on the bench of the Supreme Court in the face of the active opposition of his Senatorial Colleague, General Al ger and Secretary Blaine, all of whom supported another Michigan candi date. Christmas knocked the republican leaders in the Senate out in the first round. Mr. Hoar refused to even en tert iin the idea of passing the usual resolution for a holiday recess and stated that the Senate would be in session every day until the Force bill was passed, but he reckoned without counting the strong home attractions of a majority of the Senators of his party. By Christmas eve the Senate was short ofa quorum and adjourned to Saturday; on Saturday the number of Senators had dwindled to 1 8 and after a five minute session, devoted . to prayer by the chaplain, an adjourn ment was taken until today. Today there is not a quorum present, but an effort will be made by the republicans to continue the debate on the election bill until a quorum gets here. It will hardly sue eed though, as it will be done without a quorum. The House is doing nothing for the same reason, and it looks as though things would remain in the same condition for the rest of this week. Attorney General Miller has made his contribution to the Harrison boom in the shape of an opinion which, if it holds good, will enable Mr. Harrison to turn the World's Fair into a mam moth Harrison machine, by appointing an army of political heelers to do im aginary work towards preparing for the exposition, while their real work will be for Mr, Harrison and the republi can party. The anti-silver republicans, who are all in favor of the Force bill, do not derive much satisfaction from the ex pected arrival of two more votes for that measure, in the persons of the new Idaho Senators, because both of those Senators are understood to be enthusiastic friends of free silver coin age. These anti-silver republicans are opposed to any financial legislation of any kind at this session, and they only agreed to the financial bill recently re ported for the purpose of quieting the silver men in their party and fully in tended to prevent a vote ever being taken upon it. The silver men have at j last had their eyes opened, and they are threatening to make the fur fly as soon as the holiday abcentees get back, Commissioner Raum has been com pelled by Secretary Noble to write a letter in favor of the bill now pending to reduce the attorney's fee for obtain ing an increase in pension to $2. The attorney's lobby still boldly and conn dently announces their ability to de feat the bill. Public opinion has proved too strong for the House committee on Rules, which has decided to report in favor of Representative Dockerty's resolution authorizing an investigation of the charge against Congressmen of speculating in silver bullion. Thoy Have Never Tailed I I have been sick more or less for the last ten years, which has cost me many dollars in doctors and druggists' bills. The last two years it only cost me three dollars. Why? Because I used Sulphur Bitters instead of em ploying doctors. They cured me of Jaundice. F, F. Jloyil, JJobvken. Now is the time for good resolutions. Not resolutions to be made today and broken tomorrow, not resolutions based upon the impulse of the moment, i.ol resolutions of mere sentiment, but those based upon something substan tial that will do ourselves or somebody else some good. The year of our Lord 1890 has passed away, and we have entered upon the last decade of the nineteenth century. Some of tis may live to see the dawn of the twenti eth century, but before it shall come there is no telling who may be called hence. Years roll by, and almost be fore we know it one New Year's day succeeds another. And with each year we are closer to the end of our earthly journey and the grave. While we are here let us lose no opportunity to do all the good we can, so that when our end shall come we may be missed at least by some who may feel that our lives have not been altogether in vain, and that when we are laid away be neath the sod we may be remembered for having done some good in the World. Now is the time to turn over a new leaf. His Daughter Suffered From Eczema. My daughter suffered for five years with an attack of Chronic Eczema, that baffled the treatment of all the best practitioners. I then concluded to try a course of Swift's Specific (S. S. S.) She began to improve from the first dose, and before she had complet ed the second bottle the iiritation had disappeared, and she is now well and enjoying unexcelled health. These are plain and simple facts, and 1 will cheerfully answer all inquiries, either in person or by mail, V. Vaughn, Druggist, Sandy Bottom, Va.

Treatise on IIIoikI anil Skin Discuses mulled free.SWIFT SPECIFIC CO., Atluiitu, (hi, A Great Electrio System. One of the most attractive places in Philadelphia, especially at evening, is the store of Bailey, Banks, & Biddle. The vast establishment is lighted by night by 700 incandescent electric lights, a system of lighting which it has taken an expert electrician six months to perfect. It is certainly as near perfection as the art ot illumi nation has so far reached and the ef fect is what might be termed entranc ing. Bursts of bright yellow light come from numerous overhead electroliers, while ingeniously hidden globes light up with startling brilliancy the cases devoted to silverware. Along one side of the store effulgent beams of light shoot out from behind single slips of flowers, being reflected by the glittering plate-p'.ass mirrors. In the art room the various objects of beauty have in addition to their own charm, received the benefit of this system of artificial lighting. Apparently care lessly displayed shafts of light, some times perfect floods of it, are brought to bear in a most harmonious man ner on the articles to which its splen dor is more easily lent. The charm of it all lies in the studied careless ness and in the artistic manner in which the glow lamps are hidden, giv ing to the whole store an appearance which recalls a page of a fairy tale. "Struck Gas" will be presented in the Opera House this Friday evening. The New York papers thus speak of it: "Struck Gas" has been carefully produced at the Amphion Academy this week and is pronounced as good, if not better, than the average run of comedies of its sort, and has been pleasing to those who have seen it. The company is a good one, and have given the comedy in its best phase. Every one in Brooklyn who patronizes theaters saw it last season, and will want to see it again. The comedy has a new stage dress and the costumes are of the very best. Lillian Harper as Nan was all that she should have been, "Struck Gas" abounds in good music, and the com pany is certainly a capable one. "Fun and frolic reign supreme at the Amph ion this week. N. Y. Sun, Sept. 17, 1889. There's more plot in "Struck Gas," which was presented at the Amphion Academy last evening, than any of the Tannehill faicus which have been seen in Brooklyn. The hit of the evening was Lillian Harper as Nan. She sang well, danced gracefully, and altogether worked hard to make the comedy a success. Drake and Duck, the two members of the G. A. R., were capitally played. The balance of the cast was in capable hands. JV. Y. World, Sept. 17, 1889. When I Was Sick ! My room looked like a drug store, I had so many bottles in it. The more I dosed, the worse off I was. Finally, I paid my doctor and told him he needn't come any more. I was troub led with Chronic Rheumatism, and couldn't get out of bed alone. Six bottles of Sulphur Bitters cured me. JJcnj. Fitch, Atlanta Jloune. Ji-jaton. mi; 11 ci.iiting.
