FRIDAY, MARCH 10, 1893.
Thomas Mason Weidman of Potts
ville has been appointed Judge in
Schuylkill county in place of Judge
Green, deceased.
Last Friday March 3rd, Judge Rice
of Luzerne county, gave his decision
on the granting of licenses for that
county. One hundred and thirty-six
applicants were refused. The reve
nue from those to whom licenses were
granted will aggregate over $200,000;
the greater portion of which will fall
to the city, borough or township.
President Harrison last Thursday
evening accepted a professorship in the
Leland Stanford University of Califor
nia. He will deliver a series of lect
ure on constitutional law, comnienc
in October next. He has had the
matter under consideration for some
weeks before signifying his formal ac
ceptance. The newspapers have sought in
vain to obtain a portrait of Mr.
Richard Olney, the Attorney General.
This is the New York World descript
ion of him: "Imagine a square block
of wood with a slightly retrousse nose
and two lumps of coal for eyes and a
Dan Lamont mustache, and you've
got bim the worst looking fellow of
the gang." Mr. Cleveland's Cabinet
could not be entered successfully in a
beauty show, but they are solid and
substantial men, weighing an average
of 190 pounds each, and their ability
is believed to be equal to their
avoirdupois.
As to the Republican party, it can
not but view the going out permanent ly
of such a man as Judge Gresham with
grave apprehension. Such a step
means much now and more in the
future. It meant much four months
ago, when the judge merely announc
ed his intention of voting for Mr.
Cleveland, although he expressly de
clared that he did so as a Republican
To step clean over into the official
ranks of the opposition would mean
vastlymore. But the Republican
party will make nothing through treat
ing this matter cavalierly or in a spirit
of ugliness. Throwing stones or mud
at such a man as Judge Gresham will
not pay. The one will not stick, the
others will fall harmless at his feet.
There must be a higher policy than
this, a more manly and patriotic
recognition of the facts of the
situation and of the duty of the hour.
All of which will become clear to the
dullest and most perverse minds be
fore many more moons have passed.
I Ail. Telegram. (Rep)
The doors of the Farmer's bank at
Harrisburg that were closed about a
week ago because of a bad speculation
by some one, were opened Friday of
last week.
For the payment to depositors of
thirty per cent, of their deposits.
Those who have had their money lock
ed up for the last ten days in care of
"Assignee" Baily and who at first
feared it was gone for good were not
slow in coming forward to get what
they could of it.
Mr. Baily and his assistants were
kept busy from nine o'clock wi.en
payments began until the doors were
, closed at three, attending to the con
stant stream of people which flowed
into the bank. All the depositors
were paid in check on the Harrisburg
national bank, signed by Edward
Bailey, the president. It was stated
semi-officially that the depositors
would receive a second dividend very
soon and the banks's offairs were in a
more satisfactory condition than had
been thought immediately after its
suspension.
Look Out for B umber Tour Under Post
master General Bissell.
Who is to be fourth assistant post
master ganeral under Wilson S.
Bissell? That is the inquiry among
a good many Pennsylvania Demo
crats now. The first assistant has
been the headsman until recently.
Adial E. Stevenson bore the axe un
der Mr. Cleveland and General CUrk-
son for a timejunder General Harrison.
For a year or more the fourth as
sistant has been the headsman of the
post-office department at ' Washing
ton. The fourth assistant under
Cleveland will be the citizen who de
capitates and appoints. Who is he
to be? Robert A. Maxwell of
Batavia, New York, has all along
been mentioned as the probable first
assistant under Bissell.

"even when all others fail. It has a
"record of successes unqualled by any

Cleveland's Inaugural.
President Cleveland's inaugural was
marked on account of his clear and
excellent enunciation, and entire ab
sence of notes. He occupied twenty
five minutes in its delivery. Below
we give the important parts of his address.
"My fellow citizens : In obedience
to the mandate of my countrymen
Pm about to dedicate myself to their
service under the sanction of a solemn
oath. Deeply moved by the expres
sion of confidence and personal at
tachment which have called me to this
service, I am sure my gratitude can
make no better return than the pledge
I now give Delore God and these wit
nesses of unreserved and complete de
votion to the interests and welfare of
those who have honored me.
THE DEMAND FOR SOUND CURRENCY.
"Manifestly nothing is more vital to
our supremacy as a nation, and to the
beneficent purposes of our government
than a sound and stable currency. Its
exposure to degradation should at
once arouse to activity the mo t en
lightened statesmanship and the dan
ger of depreciation in the purchasing
power of the wages paid to toil should
furnish the strongest incentive to
prompt and conservative precaution.
"In dealing with our present em
barrassing situation as related to this
subject, we will be wise if we temper
our confidence and faith in our nation
al strength and resources with the
frank concession that cen these will
not permit us to defy with impunity
the inexorable laws of finance and
trade. At the same time, in our ef
forts to adjust differences in opinion
we should be free from intolerance or
passion, and our judgments should be
unmoved by alluring phrases and un
vexed by selfish interests. I am con
fident that such an approach to the
subject will result in prudent and ef
fective remedial legislation. In the
meantime, so far as the executive
branch of the government can inter
vene, none of the powers with which
it is invested will be withheld when
their exercise is deemed necessary to
maintain our national credit or avert
financial disaster.
LESSONS THAT OUGHT TO BE UNLEARNED
"Closely related to the exaggerated
confidence in our country's greatness,
which tends to a disregard of the rules
of national safety danger confronts us
not less serious, I refer to the preva
lence of a popular disposition to ex
pect from the operation of the govern
ment especial and direct individual ad
vantages. The verdict of our voters
which condemned the injustice of
maintaining protection for projection's
sake enjoins upon the people's servants
the duty of exposing and destroying
the brood of kindred evils which are
the unwholesome progeny of paternal
ism. " This is the bane of Republican in
stitutions and the constant peril of our
government by the people. It degrades
to the purposes oi wily craft the plan
of rule our fathers established and be
queathed to us as an object of our
love and veneration. It perverts the
patriotic sentiment of our countrymen
and tempts them to a pitiful calcula
tion of the sordid gain to be derived
from their government's maintenance.
It undermines the self reliance of our
people, and substitutes in its place
dependence upon governmental favor
itism. It stifles the spirit of true
Americanism and stupefies every en
obling trust of American citizenship.
"The people of the United States
have decreed that on this day the con
trol of their government in its legisla
tive and executive branches shall be
given to a political party pledged in
tne most positive terms to the accom
plishment of tariff reform. They have
thus determined in favor of a more
just and equitable system of federal
taxation. The agents thev have chos
en to carry out their purpose are
bound by their promises, not less than
by the command of their masters, to
devote themselves unremittingly to
this service.
"While there should be no surrender
of principles, our task must be under
taken wisely and without vindictive
ness. Our mission is not punishment
but the rectification of wrongs. If in
lifting burdens from the daily life of
our people we reduce inordinate and
unequal advantages too long enjoyed,
this is but a necessary incident of our
right and justice. If we exact from
unwilling minds acquiescence in the
theory of an honest distribution of the
fund of governmental bereficence
treasured up for all, we but insist upon
a principle which underlies our free
institutions.
PARTY PLEDGES WILL BE REDEEMED.
When we proclaim that the neces
sity for revenue to support the govern
ment furnishes the only justification
for taxing the people, we announce a
truth so plain that its denial would
seem to indicate the extent to which
judgment may be influenced by famil
iarity with perversions to the taxing
power i and when we seek to reinstate
the self-confidence and business enter
prise of our citizens, by discrediting
abject dependence upon governmental
favor, we strive to stimulate those ele
ments of American character which
support the hope of American achieve
ment. "Anxiety for the redemption of the
pledges which my party has made, and
solicitude for the complete justifica
tion of the trust the people have re
posed in us, constrain me to remind
those with whom I am to co operate
that we can succeed in doing the work
which has been especially set before
us only by the most sincere, harmoni
ous, and disinterested effort. Even if
insuperable obstacles and opposition
prevent the consummation of our task,
we shall hardly be excused, and if
failure can be traced to our fanlt or
neglect, we may be sure the people
will hold us to a swift and exacting
accountability.
CONFIDENCE IS HIS COUNTRYMEN.
"The oath I now take to preserve,
protect and defend the constitution of
the United States not only impressive
ly defines the great responsibility I
assume, but suggests obedience to
constitutional commands as the rule
by which my official conduct must be
guided. I shall to the best of my
ability and within my sphere of duty,
preserve the constitution by loyally
protecting every grant of federal pow
er it contains ; by defending all its re
straints when attacked by impatience
and restlessness, and by enforcing its
limitations and teservations in favor
of the states and people.
"I find much comfort in remember
ing that my countrymen are just and
generous and in the assurance that
they will not condemn those who by
sincere devotion to their service de
serve their forbearance and approval.
"Above all I know there is a su
preme being who rules the affairs of
men and whose goodness and mercy
has always followed the American
people, and I know he will not turn
from us now if we humbly and rever
ently seek his powerful aid."
ECONOMY IN THE PUBLIC SERVICE.
"The acceptance of this principle
leads to a refusal of bounties and sub
sidies, which burden the labor and
thrift of a portion of our citizens, to
aid ill advised or languishing enter
prises in which they have no concern.
It leads also to a challenge of wild
and reckless pension expenditure,
which overleaps the bounds of grateful
recognition of patriotic service and
prostitutes to vicious uses the people's
prompt and generous impulse to aid
those disabled in their country's de
fence. "It is a plain dictate of honesty and
good government that public expendi
tures should be limited by public ne
cessity and that this should be meas
u'ed by the rule of strict economy,
ai.d it is equally clear that frugality
among the people is the best guaranty
of a contented and strong support of
free institutions. One mode of the
misappropriations of public funds is
avoided when appointments in offic,
instead of being the rewards of partis
an activity, are awarded to those whose
efficiency promises a fair return of
work for the compensation paid to
them.
"To secure the fitness and compe
tency of appointees to office and to
remove irom political action the de
moralizing madness for spoils, civil
service reform has found a place in
our public policy and laws. The ben
efits already gained through this in
strument hty and the further useful
ness it promises entitles it to the
hearty support and encouragement of
all who desire to see our public ser
vice well performed or who hope for
the elevating of political sentiment and
tne purification of political methods.
FAIR TREATMENT TO THE INDIANS.
"Our relations with the Indians lo
cated within our borders impose upon
us responsibilities we cannot escape.
Humanity and consistency require us
to treat them with forbearance, and
in our dealings with them to honestly
and considerately regard their rights
and interests. Every effort should be
made to lead them through the paths
of civilization and education to self
supporting citizenship. In the mean
time, as the nation's wards, they should
be promptly defended against the cu
pidity of designing men and shielded
Irom every influence or temptation
that retards their advancement."
New Election Law.
Senator Landis has introduced in
the Senate a bill amending the act de
nning the necessary and proper ex
penses incident to the nomination
and election of State, municipal and
county officers, extending its provision
to elections held for the adoption or
rejection of amendments to the con
stitution. The bill makes the pro
visions of the present act apply to
nomination conventions. The
necessary expenses of election are
held not to include the payment of
any fees for the naturalization of any
person except th payee. Payments
are lawful for printing and traveling
expenses, dissemination of news, for
political meetings and conventions
and for the employment of watchers.
tees paid for the naturalization of an
other constitutes a misdemeanor and
the punishment is fixed at not more
man $500 and six months imprison
ment or both. A failure to file a
statement of expenses within ten days
alter the election is a misdemeanor
punishable by a fine not exceeding
3 1,000 or imprisonment lor not more
than one year or both and forfeits the
office of any one elected who shall
fail to file such expense account with
in the ten days.

Electno Railroads.
From present indications it would
look as though the electric roads
throughout Central Pennsylvania are
to be controlled by one mammoth
syndicate. A special Pullman car con
taining a party of distinguished Thila
delphians cams up as far as Shamo
kin, viewing the premises. On board
was Secretary of State, William F.
Harrity, J. J. Sullivan, President of
the Frank ford Railway Company ; W.
B. Gill, Manager of the Ifell Tele
phone Company ; J. O. Kiem, P. &
R. General Agent, Port Richmond ;
William Smith, D.-.niel Donovan, E.
M. McGargee, F. J. Johann, of the
Equitable Trust Company 1 J. H. Jo
hann, of the Philadelphia ledger ;
Dallas Sanders, W. Wilkins Carr,
William Winters.
A GIGANTIC SCHEME.
A reporter boarded the car and was
cordially received. He was told that
the party was returning home from
a visit over the lines of the Schuylkill
lraction Company. I he road parsed
into their hands several days ago.
They had purchased the road consisting
of twenty-three miles, and intended to
unite Mahanoy City and Shenandoah
at once. The line will also be extend
ed from Locust Dale to Mt. Carmel
and Siiamokin. Among the first im
provements contemplated is the build
ing of a railway between Ashland and
Centralia. Eventually the syndicate
will own a through line from Philadel
phia to Erie, running into Pottsville
and then traversing the Schuylkill val
ley to Tamaqua and from thence west
ward to the Schuylkill Traction lines.
The capital stock is one million dol
lars and bonds to the amount of $500,
000 will be issued at once, with a re
serve fund of $250,000. Mr. Harrity
is specially desirous to sell the stock
to the people living along the lines, as
in that way the road would have the
sympathy and co-operation of the pub
lic. Shamokin capitalists have been
granted incorporation papers to build
a line from Shamokin to Danville.
One of the greatest moves will be to
unite Pottsville with Minersville, Tre
mont and towns and villages as far
west as Lykens. There is a power
behind the throne in all this which the
careful observer readily perceives.

ths signal for the breaking up of the
system. Nature is opening up the
