Gara has again run against some poison vines that have produced swelling in his (ace. Rev. Houlz preached an interest ing sermon in the Zion church, on last Sabbath afternoon, on capital and labor ; but omitted one important point that has caused so much strife and strikes around our people the importation of foreign cheap labor that supplants our home labor, and with which come anarchism and so cialism, so detrimental to our Repub lic and the welfare of our country. We should have stringent laws in re gard to immigration, and our labor ing classes should not be brought in competition with the pauper labor of other countries. Sorry to learn of the departure of M. W. Jackson. Berwick has suffered a great loss in his death. A son of Mr. Robbins, Asbury, a citizen of Iowa, and educator, has been visiting friends here. Our people have had an elegant time harvesting and haymaking. Oats will soon be harvested. Camp-meetings will be here and then we will have rain. Some talk of removing the B. F.

Mrs. William Wilson of this place, ' highly respected, died last Monday morning and was buried on the follow ing Wednesday at New Columbus; aged about 75 years. Death released this woman from a long siege of suffering. Both deceased persons died from cancer. The long threatening weather now promises to clear up without much or any rain. This locality suffers for want of rain. But very little rain fell at this place since July 4th. The grain and hay harvest is about all housed in"gOod condition. O. C. Eeishiine met with what might have proven a serious accident last Monday week ago. A jet of boilingwater spurted into his face from his engine and nearly scalded out his eyes. The U. S. Senate is a formidable obstruction to the business interests and general prosperity of our country. It is about as great a nuisance as the labor strikes. Mrs. F. II. Tubbs of this place is in a critical condition. S P. Krickbaum is very slowly convalescing. Lancaster Economy. v e have often heard of the Lan caster Dutch as rigid economists. It seems the county auditors, who are no doubt fair representatives of this characteristic spirit of economy, object to a $59,000 poor-house. It does seem a little high. They further discovered in their audit a little matter of $29.80 which the inspectors claim to have spent for cigars while inspecting things. They go farther than this and even object t(j the 1? j -j 60 for car fare for the inspectors, jusi as though the poor fellows could walk or hire their own conveyance. In nosing around like that of course auditors are ant to f.nd thinsia that j look wasteful at first glance if not at second. Accordingly they further j discovered and objected to 118.53 as ihe poor director s expenses to a contention of some kind. What kind of a dispLy would they make at a convention if they didn't smoke not to mention drink ? They even c.rried the spirit of 1 ,3 r caster econo my ' f.ir its to object to the $16,03.1 paid for diemissing cases to magistrates and constables. II ft A Clean Collar !

Only a few of the railroads are willing to make public report concern ing the decrease in their business during the period of the strike ; but the litigation which is apt to follow in the near future will show whether the 33 per cent, reported is too much or too little decrease in the business covering that period. Though stocks have been reported as a shade stronger, in reality they are quite a shade weaker, as reading between the lines shows plainly. Wheat is reported as likely to make the lotvest record in price ever known. This is quite possible until it passes from the weak hands of the farmer into the strong hands of the specula tor and middleman who knows how to manipulate it for a rise. What they don't know about manipulation for a rise that is when they have the goods to sell is hardly worth trying to learn. If farmers could only manage to live without being obliged to sell at the beck and call of speculators there might be some financial hope for them ; but no protective laws are shaped in their favor. Should war ensue abroad for any length of time the wheat that is now borne down would soon bear up to enrich the speculator w ho never plow ed a field in his life or never intends to so long as cornering the necessaries of life can so easily be made to pay b'jit;r. At 50 some cents a bushel wheat would seem to afford a chance for speculation. The slight advance in the price of corn is publicly noted and deplored, for the reason, it is claimed, that " this year's crop promises a most excellent yield." Now, as to the "most excellent yield of corn "this year, we will only remark that it must be tlsewhere than in our immediate section of countty. There are in fact but few fields about here that can be called up to the average. Considering its retarded growth to start with corn will do well about here if it comes up to the average yield If it were Dela ware peaches that the regular com mercial reviews were alluding to we might possibly be able to agree with them. As to oats, never a very prolific crop in Pennsylvania, it is intimated that speculation has already begun and considerably to the disadvantage of speculators who were mistaken about the outcome of the oats busi ness. Like other folks, speculators are sometimes mistaken, and at other times they get caught in the traps they frequently set for others. Owing to strikes, &c, pig iron is quoted as dull, indeed. Besides, there is no brisk demand for the slim out- put.of furnaces. Only about one-half ot the producing forces ot the country are engaged at present in iron manu facturing. Textile manufactories are reported as full of orders for goods, but the prolonged uncertainties about the tariff legislation still pending makes the operators in the national combine tleem it policy to further hesitate not withstanding there is no great amount of wealth in the idleness of a plant in which there is large money. Orders deferred may yet prove to be orders lost with some of them.

The contrast between the punctu ality of the action of the House and the dilatonness of the Senate we have often remarked and commented upon during the dragging along of the tariff bill. We have lelt somewhat lonely in our weak effort to paint pen pictures of the contrast. Senator Hill now gives us a tremendous boost along tins very train of thought, though we might pre fer it frcm some one else in whom we have more confidence. His remarks, explanatory ol Senatorial indifference concerning the will of the people as expressed at the polls, most fully illus trate the point. His condemnation of the Senate's indifference fell from him in the warmth of debate and in the height of a peculiarly unique emergen cy, just such as draws out the exact and unvarnished truth sometimes where i: is usually wont to be hidden. But a reformation such as he sug gests the election of Senators by di rect vote of the people though pop ular, would still be both questionable and difficult ; it being only possible to bring it about by slow process of Con stitutional amendment and in the face of much opposition from those who believe it hard to improve upon the kind of government the founders gave us. It is barely possible of course, that the founders never dreamed of a Sen ate full of millionaires involved and interested in all manner of commer cial and financial schemes, and there fore not likely to be impartial or fair in the enactment of laws for the masses as against the classes. Recent experience demonstrates Senatorial trickery that is just simply intolerable, and only because, as we verily, of the personal interest they have in the outcome of the tariff bill. On the question of making them amenable to the sovereign power directly, it will afford us get pleasure to vote for it at every .opportunity, being fully satisfied that they have far too long abused their trust, no matter what the founders contemplated in their case. Kapid Legislation on Regular Appro priation Bills. However dilatory (Tnncress maw . . ' o ' have been in passing the tariff bill (,wincii is still hanging lire) nothing of this kind will be charged against them so far as the regular appropriation bills are concerned. Three of the more important regular appropriation bills Dassed the Senate in one dav. namely, the Diplomatic and Consular the Invalid Pension and the Military Academy. They likely involve more monev than all the other hilla thrown together. This speedy action, which is never tne Dest tor righteous legisla tion, indicates that our law-mal-prs are getting anxious to quit for this session. 1 ney nave hart enough ot it. No doubt raanv of them would have been more likely to return to Con gress if they had managed to pass the tariff bill with its essential features still adhering, and then spent some time ana consideration upon the regu lar appropriation bills. But the differ ence is, the regular appropriation bills anect no ciass in particular, but every body in ceneral. while the tariff bill affects a very particular and a very powenui class ot our fellow citizens. A class that has heretofore been in the habit of shaninor legislation to suit themselves ; nor are they willing to surrender their prestige or influ ence until driven to it. This has been the cause of delayed tariff legislation, and this alone. Whenever Congress can rise superior to this particular class tariff legislation can be enacted as speedily, as justly and as equitably as any otner legislation. It is not likely Conaress will be in session a single week after this all-important lanri question is somehow disposed of. It is still in compromising conferences between the House and Senate and will likely be stripped of its more essential features at everv turn until when finally passed to the President lor signature its highly protective qualities will still continue to nrotect the few as against the many unpro tected.

Our 5c. apron ginghams are closer. We are selling odd dress patterns (not lor odd people) in lengths of 8ij, 9, 10, 11, 12 up to 14 yards ; some sateens, others lawns, dimities, percales, seersuck ers, zephyr lanes, zephyr ginghams, &:c.

Corner Ponn and Lackawanna Ares., In speaking of Senator Gorman the New York World says : " His history is irrelevant, his apology inadequate, and his ultimatum undemocratic and impossible. The New York Times is also im pelled to give its analysis as follows : ne is nity-nve years ot age, a man of varied investments, of considerable wealth, and expectations of more. In the senate he is known ,n nn n-ntnr having rarely addressed his fellow, members in public. In politics he is politely described by his friends as a diplomatist and in iranker moods as a schemer, and bv those who know him best as untrustworthy, selfish, anu 10 mose wno may stand in his way venomously vindictive. We do not at this time care to go into the details of his political course, since he nas taicen an active part 111 national politics. It has not been him.
