CAKE OF FLANTS. Centu-y plants are very hardy and will stand most anything. After several years experience 1 have found that the best way to keep them over winter is to put them in the cellar in a cool place, not in ('anger of frost howeve., and with a little light. If kept in total darkness they will become bleached. Tli"y twt no water if in the dark, as u rot ihe routs. If they become very dry, a little water two or three times during the winter is all that is necessary. They should be brought out doors as early in the spring as possible. I usually take mine out about the middle of May. Cannas and Calladiums should be potted and started in the house, in a warm place, and should not be set out in the yard before June i. They require a great deal of water. Thene plants are ornamental, and quite inexpensive. Calladium bulbs can be purchased at from five to fifty cents apiece, according to size. There are several varieties of cannas, the red leaf being the prettiest. Palms and screw j ines ihould not have the direct rays of the sun. They are tropical plants and grow .pro fusely in the thick forests of the south. Among the prettiest of these plants for the jardiniere are Latania Borbonica, Kentia Dalmorcana, Sea forthia elegans, Areca lutescens, 'and others. The Dractna bruantie is another pretty plant, and is quite hardy. Any of these can be procured of florists at prices ranging from fifty eents to two collars for good sized plants, and they afford much pleasure to the lover of ornamental shubbery. K. Death.

There is not a city in the country but what feels the disadvant ages of the tie-up. Some feel it more paiticularly in the advanced price of meats and vegetables, but in fact all business relations are somewhat affect ed. Had the tie-up taken place before home vegetables were to b gotten from home gardens, as at first intend ed even the smaller towns would have felt it. Delegates from all the trades unions cf Chicago have decided to order a general strike in which 1 00,000 workmen will be involved, unless Mr. Pullman yields to their demands. This he flatly refuses to do, claiming that private business should be conducted without interlcrence. The Pullman company issued a full statement in the Chicago papers of all the events leading up to the strike, and also of the nature and relation of his car building to the railroads en gaging his cars. He gives in this state ment a complete exposition of the wages he paid his hands along with his profits and losses in business. As a whole the paper is not calculated to engender sympathy for his striking wage-earners, since he puts the respon sibility of their loss of wages and of employment largely upon themselves, in consequence of their arbitrary at titude after his explanation of the deperscd conditions and of the com. petition in the car-building industry. He says many things by way of public and personal explanation : The absolute necessity of the la: t reduction in wages, under the existing condition of the business of car manu facturing, had been explained to the committre, and they were insisting upon a restoration of the wage scale of the first half of 1893, when Mr. Pullman entered the room and ad dressed the committee, speaking in substance as follows : " At the commencement of the very serious depression last year we were employing at Pullman 5,Si6 men and pajing out in wages there $305,000 a month. Negotiations with intending purchasers of railway equip ment that were then pending for new work were stopped by them, orders already given by others were cancelled and we were ob'iged to lay off, as you are aware, a large number of men in every department, so that by Nov. 1, 1S93, there were only about 2,000 men in all departments, or about one third of tht normal number. I real ized the necessity for the most strenu ous exertions to procure work im mediately, without which there would be great embarrassment, not only to the employes and their families at Pullman, tut also to those living in the immediate vicinity, including be tween 700 and 800 employes who had purchased homes, and to whom em ployment wa3 actually necessary to enable them to complete their pay ments." " I canvassed the matter thoroughly with the manager of the woiks and instructed him to cause the men to be assured that the company would do everything in its power to meet the competition which was sure to occur because of the great number ot large car manufacturers that were in the same condition, and that were exceedingly anxious to keep their men employed. I knew that if there was any work to be let, bids for it would be made upon a much lower bnsis than ever before." " The result of this discussion was a revision in piece work prices, which, in the absence of any information to the contrary, I supposed to be accept able to the men under the circum stances. Under these conditions, and with lower pi ices upon all materials. I personally undertook the work cf me letungs 01 tne cars, and Dy making lower bids than other manufacturers, I secured work enough to gradually increase our force from 2,000 up to about 4,200, the number employed, according to the April pay rolls, in all capacities at Pullman." In further justification of his at titude on the increased wages demand ed by his hands Mr. Pullman pro claims in his manifesto that the selling price of the cars they were turning out had depreciated about 24 per cent, in the past two years. Whether these deterrents be true or false, and whether the demands of his employees be right or wrong, the deplorable fight is raging more or less aggressively, and it will be felt by rich and poor alike if continued for any great length of time. The impoverished condition of those willing to work and the disaf fection already enkindled among labor organizations would be apt to solve the problem in time ; but the varied industries of this nervous nation are far too keen and impatient to thus quietly abide a peaceful settle ment of arbitrary and violent acts. When the fundamental and equitable principle of individual control of one's own property and business atTairs is thus placed in jeopardy by mob rule, we deem it time for the strong arm of the Government .State or National, (or both if need be) to come to thf rescue in behalf of the rights and privileges guaranteed to all by our Constitution.

As to the immediate future, the Ileoiew admits that the interruption of business by the railroad strikes has been so demoralizing and un settling in effect as to leave the usual signs of the times of little value. Iu speaking of stocks, however, it says they are notably unaftected, closing with a decline of only 14 cents per share. Railroad earnings show a decrease of 21.3 percent, for June, as against 20.0 for May. In regard to the effect of the pass age of the tariff biil by the Senate, -Mr. Dun aptly remaiks that no one will venture to risk much on its final passage without further alteration. In fact further alteration is anticipated. As to speculation in all kinds of products, unsettled conditions m.ike it full of uncertainties. Meats have run higher, however, with famine threatened in New York because of its tie-up in the west, where large quantities have been spoiled and destroyed. Ilecause of improved crop prospects wheat has fallen 1 cents. The aggregate yearly export has been 165,000,000 bushels which brought the lowest average price ever known. Consequently but 158,000,000 bushels were sent west as against 249,000,000 bushels the previous year. Cotton promises so well that specu lation for an advance is difficult. Over 7,350,000 bales are in sight with strong promise for a much larger yield. The iron industry, as a result of unfavorable conditions, emanating from the coal miner's strike and block ade ot railroads in the west, will suffer large and general deterioration. Railway earnings being affected, im provements and extensions of the roads will also be affected. Prices are tending downward, though a rally is anticipated immediately after the termination of the strikes. Textile manufactures show no im provement. On the other hand two important cotton mills stopped in definitely. Also a number of woolen mills are closed for the present, most likely anticipating cheaper goods through foreign competition after new duties take effect. Minor industries are also affected much in the same way, especially where changes of taiiff duty is liable to bring foreign products into com petition with domestic manufactures all of which tends, of course, to reduce the price in the interest of the con sumer, and to the disadvantage of the home manufacturer. This is what the writer would call bitter-sweet ; that is bitter to our manufacturing classes and sweet to the consuming masses. 1 he Government closes its fiscal year with a decrease of $88,919,292 in revenue. However, bankers calcu late that the d.mger point is past, since our gold exports have about stopped, amounting to only $350,000 for the week. Our receipts exceeding our shipments by $2,000,000 this week is very .encouraging. In very plain Knglish the JlevUw Says : " Large imports are expected when the new tariff goes into effect, which will tend to lessen the custom ary excess of exports in the Fall." As to failures, there were less this year than last , and also the liabilities involved in the failures were nearly 50 per cent. less. In the important classes the com mercial failures show a most encoura ging ir.ipiovement," says ihe lleview, " l'ailures during the week have been 1S1 in the United States, against 334 last year, and 34 in Canada, against 23 hut year, with no impor tant disaster as yet since the new halfv ear began." QUABTO CENTENNIAL. The. twenty fifth anniversary of the pastorate of Rev. A. Houtz will be held in two sessions of one day each The first session will be held on Thurs day, August 26, in Mr. Philip Creasy 's grove in Centre township, familiarly known as the Conner camp-meeting grove. This will be convenient to all living in Rriarcrcek valley and the ad jacent towns. Ihe second session will be held on Friday, August 27, in Mr. K. M. Laubach's grove, near Forks. This will be convenient to all those who live along the B. & S. R. R and in Fishingcreek valley and neigh boring towns. Tickets will be sold on that day at Forks at excursion rates, and the tiains will stop at the grove. The exercises of each session will begin at 10 A. M. sharp, and close at 4:30 P. M., with a recess of two hours for dinner and social intercourse. An interesting program has been pre pared for the occasion, consisting of address, toasts, music and the recita tion of two poems prepared especially for this occasion ; the one by an old friend of the pastor. Elder John Sutton, and the other by Prof. A. U. Lesher, of Berwick, a grand-son of the immediate predecessor of the pastor. Offerings will be lifted at each session. The following brethren have signified their intention to be present and take part : Revs. 1C. II. Dieffenhacher, of Strawberry Ridge ; D. E. Schoedlcr, of Turbotville : G. S. Sorber, of Watson- town ; IX V. Ebbert. of Milton: C, B. Alsparh, of Danville; F. H. Fisher, of Mausdale ; G. B."Dechant. of Cata- wissa ; C. H. Brandt, of Bloomsburg ; W.

Goodrich, of Clearsbury, Md. All who have hymnals will please bring the same. The dinner will be in the form of a basket picnic. No melon wagons, confectionery stands or drinking bars will be allowed on the grounds, as these are always a source of annoyance and distraction. We hereby , in the name of the pas tor and the Orangeville Reformed charge, extend a most cordial invita tion to all pastors and their congrega tions, and the public generally, to at tend this Quarto Centennial which we believe will be a social, intellectual and spiritual feast to all present. Committee. To Arbitrary Strikers. The greatest mistake any body of arbitrary strikers can make is to sup pose, as thsir leader Debs declares, that ninety per cent, of the American people are in sympathy with them or with any arbitrary act of anybody. Law and order is the first considera tion of the American citizen who is worthy of his country and the shelter ing care of the flag he honors. An archy is not yet characteristic of America, thank God. If the money power cannot be reached and be kept in obeyance through the help of God and the secret ballot, it surely cannot be done with the help of the devil and a few scattering bullets and bombs 111 the hands of the drunken and reckless foreigner. Against all this the patriot must heartily protest if he would pre serve the best and most considerate Government on earth to the poor man. The Presidential 01th compels the President to protect the personal property of rich and poor alike, and this public sentiment also demands of him. As to the right of an employee to strike against an employer no one doubts it ; but to arbitrarily stand in his door-way armed against all comers, threatening both his life and property in case he presumes to continue busi ness, is quite another thing. It dont take a very great knowledge of law or equity to observe the falsity and reck lessness of such an attitude- on the part of the striker. If carried to his own property on personal belongings he could better observe its gross in justice, no doubt. This much we must say while in hearty sympathy with those who actu ally labor for a living, and also in hearty sympathy with any and all le gitimate and fair means tending to make capital remember that. " the la borer is worthy of his hire." The la borer's hands being frequently the source of the rich man's wealth, they should earn for him not only enough to live, but also a liberal share of the protected dividends. But whether cap ital of its own volition will be liberal and just or not, no laborer or artisan can afford to consent to anything leading the more reckless to unlawless acts, such as murder or arson, from a spirit of revenge, The Almighty has has hitherto always liberated the en slaved and there is no doubt that He is still able and willing to confound the mighty, the haughty, or the really op pressive. The battle of the poor against the rich, when conducted arbitrarily and without the fear of God or man, is invariab'y disastrous and ineffectua 1.

In his telegram to President Cleve land Governor Altgeld says if the Presi dent's assumption that he has the pow er to order federal troops into any State is right, then the principle of local self government never existed in this country or it has been destroyed. I he governor then says : " You gay that troops were ordered into Illi nois upon the demand of the Post office Department upon representation of the judicial officers of the United States that processes of the courts could not be served and upon proof that conspiracies existed. We will not discuss the facts, but look for a ' moment at the principle involved in your statement. All of these officers are appotnted by the executive. Most of them can be removed by him at will. If several of them can apply for troops, one alone can, so that under the law as you assume it to be an exe cutive through any one of his appoin tees can apply to himself to have the military sent into any city or number of cities, and base his application on such representations or showing as he sees fit to make. " This assumption as to the nower of the executive is certainly new and I respectfully submit that it is not the law of the land. The aukocrat of Russia could certainly not possess or claim to possess creator nower than is possessed by the executive of the United States, if your assump tion is correct. "The executive has the command, not only of the regular forces of the United States but of the military forces of all the States and can order them to any place he sees fit, and as there are always more or less local disturbances over the country, it will be an easy matter under your con struction of the law for an ambitious executive to order out the military forces of all the states anj establish at once a military government.
