Robert Klotz, who represented this district in congress when Carbon County was included in it, has carried that county again in the face of strong opposition. Judge Sittscr has been renominated for President Judge by the Democrats of Wyoming County. He is an able jurist and his re-election ought to be sure. The Sullivan County convention has not yet been held. We have members now in the United States Senate who will likely remember their actions with some remorse of conscience in the near future, or as fast as their terms expire. This would certainly be the case if the people could reach them directly. But indirectly they may and many of them will be reached. There is a feeling, we will not say a wish, in the mir.d of some folks on this side of the ocean that the Russian bear and the British lion may get to clawing and biting each other before China and Japan fully determines which shall own and control the rich peninsula of Corea. The mineral wealth of Corea it is thought will yet be the root of much evil before it is found out for certain just who it be longs to. The waiting of our national Congress until there is severe storrr. raging before they attempt to amend their obstruc tive rules and regulations, or before attempting to so amend them as to compel and keep a quorum and pre vent filibustering in the interest of speedy legislation, reminds us of the historical Arkansas character who gave as a reason for not fixing his leaky roof that he could not fix it during a storm, and when it did not rain his roof was all right and needed no fixing. True Inwardness of Senatorial Dignity. And now Senator Vest proposes to unbutton his vest and make some more startling revelations to the too frequently startled sovereign power. To our mind the people cannot find out a great deal too much about the modus operandi of law making. The more the Senators themselves dis close of their crookedness the more anxious the people will be of course to find straight statesmen. While we have no doubt this body of Senators is about as straight as the general run, it is appalling to see how crooked the straightest are. The only hope of the people is to get the law-makers into a real fight once in awhile, and then cull the plain truth from what the row discloses for the common good. A much worse thing might happen to this country than a genuine fight at headquarters. Peaceful log-rolling is ten times worse than a real fight, and besides it costs more money. The " you tickle me and I'll tickle you " plan is very docile, dignified, and harmonious, but as a general thing it gets too much money out of the Treasury in a short space of time. There has been too much peace en tirely in Congress for the common good. This last session has been a model educator of the common herd of lambs that have been led to the financial slaughter through the sharp practice and violated promises of our so-called statesmen. Turn on the light. For instance, Mrs. Chas. Rogers, of Bay City, Mich., accidentally spilled scalding water over her little boy. She promptly-applied De Witt's Witch Hazel Salve, giving instant relief. Its a wonderful good salve for burns, bruises, sores, and a sure cure for Piles. W. S. Rishton, Druggist. tf.

The tariff agony was settled after a fashion on Monday evening, at 6 o'clock, when the Senate bill was final ly accepted and passed by the House. This was not because of the superiority of the Senate bill, but because it was just that or nothing with the represen tatives of the people seeking better times through tariff reformation. It is a great relief to friends and enemies of tariff reformation to know that something, at least, has been done through which there is some hope of enlivening the hard times ot the Mc Kinley tariff. It now remains to be seen what effect free sugar, coal, iron, and many other things among the necessary commodities of life will have upon the pocket-books of the consuming classes. Though the bill as passed is not satisfactory to true representatives of the masses, or to President Cleveland or to Chairman Wilson, still it is said to be better than the obnoxious Mc Kinley tariff law, so favorable to the classes and so ruinous to the masses. Of course sarcastic comments from Republicans hoping for no tariff legis lation whatever were made and ex pected. Reed could not resist the chance to speak of the back-down of the House, while Burroughs asserted that Chairman Wilson had been de serted by his party, &c. After consid erable Republican and Democratic expression in opposition to the Senate bill Speaker Crisp closed the debate. Assuming full responsibility for what the House was about to do in acced ing to the terms of the Senate bill he said it was done in the best interest of tariff reform 5 that deserters from the cause were not the conferees ; that his attitude was to seek some relief for a suffering public. We believe, said he, in the homely adage that " when the people are starving a half loaf is better than no bread." Referring to the matter of trusts, Mr. Crisp said if there were any in this country, they had been created by the Republican party, and while the bill did not uproot them as he wished it did, it did reduce the rates of duty on articles controlled by them fifty per cent. " Going through these schedules," said Mr. Crisp, in conclu sion, " whTlst they are not all we wish, tney are tne Dest that we can now get. The moment we get this, we intend to move forward ; we do not intend there shall be any backward steD in tariff reform. We believe that the adi ourn. ment of this congress without the pass age of some tariff bill would be a blow to tariff reform from which it would not recover for years to come." Mighty Eight. It is now nrettv rjlain to the Amen. can people at large, as demonstrated by the attempted tariff reformation, that there has been but one force at the seats of Government that has pre sumed to withstand the overtures of our powerful national trusts and bines. That force has been the Chief Executive almost single handed and alone. His persistent and determined attitude throughout the tariff struggle has been in behilt of equity and right, and it has made him powerful enemies before whom ninety-nine public men out of a hundred would quake and tremble. But for this stubborn and characteristic attitude of the President, the people would again have been fooled as usual, and long ago. To promise in a platform is one thing, and to fulfil the promises in good faith after being elected and given the nee essary power, is quite another. To pursue the righteous course gives the statesman nothing but his salary and legal allowances, while to pursue the wrongful course with the hand behind the back to receive unseen whatever may be put into it by trusts and com bines in search of votes, means money for the statesman in proportion to the importance of the bills to he ntl in their favor. That's exactly what it means. 1 ins is a sad commentary, and yet the country at large bleeds because of the truth of it, as clearly demonstrated during the present ses sion of Congress. To hear the open declaration from Senators and Con gressmen themselves that bribe money is offered, and freelv offered. certain monopolies or advantageous rignra anu privileges, brushes away all doubts about it from the mind of the astounded and honest votes. The outcome of the disgraceful revelations Of this Session will not exnire with congressional adjournment. If there is not a Senatorial revolution in conse quence within the next decade of years we very much mistake the right eous temperament of the American DCOnle without regard tn nartw affiliu. . m o - r j tions If the Democratic party can maintain. ner prestige, it cannot be throush the favor her S.-natnr nre. sume to show our national trusts and selfish combines, or through more vio lated promises, but it must emanate from the righteous and winning course marked out and consistently followed ui bv the President, even thnmrh he has been obliged to go it comparative ly alone. Were a third term among the possibilities or rather nmhahilities in this country, then the most avail able man ana the most likely man to succeed to the Presidency from the VOtes Of the Deonle at larore. in ins! Grover Cleveland of New York, the unassuming but stubbornly honest man whom Roscoe Conklinrr another honest public man, as his public his tory snows is largely credited with helping into public life and national favor, even while differing with him politically. As between the ascendency of Blaine Or Cleveland. Conklintr nre. ferred the latter first, last, and all the nme. Cleveland still continues to be mighty right, while both Blaine and Conkling are dead and gone to their eternal reward the one having died very poor ana the other a very rich man. Financial, There is quite a difference of opin ion among Treasury officials, it seems, as to the probabilities of another bond issue. While the Secretary of the I reasury is not willing to admit that there is any great cause for alarm about our financial affairs, the $50,000,000 bond-issue is likely spok en of through the wish which is so often the parent of the thought, rather than because of any positive and dis interested knowledge about the abso lute necessity for it. Notwithstanding the gold reserve has reached low-water mark it is nevertheless contended that the Government is better able to-day to meet its obligations than it was prior to the February bond issue. In no instance is there any feeling of insecurity. And under normal condi tions the Government is now gaining at the rate of about $100,000 in gold a day. Even under the recent dis turbed condition it is claimed there has been no marked change from that rule. There are those, however, who take a less hopeful view of affairs, and who argue the necessity for a new bond issue, because the sugar industry and the whiskey industry are now prepared to worry along some six months with the supply they have on hand. The anti-tariff reformers of the Senate while seeming to have scored a victory, have in reality suffered a double defeat. First their own amend ments to the House bill were not such as they wanted nor such as the House wanted and therefore they hoped for the McKinlev law in prefer ence. Their second and more serious defeat is in their lost prestige with their people at large. Merchant mi :h h. towhsihb8) rWi& HATTER. SUITS FROM S18.00, CORNER MAIN I MARKET Sts. BLOOMSBURG, PA. TROUSERS FROM S5 iRs"! .OO. j Capital Forcing a Bond Issue. The Treasury figures show that there is now, in this country at least six months' supply of sugar, so that little revenue may be expected from that source. This also is true of whiskey. The statistics of the Internal Revenue Bureau show that the tax already has been paid upon over 13,000,000 gal lons of whiskey in excess of the amount upon which the tax had been paid one year ago. Therefore but little revenue may be expected from this source bcfoic December. The only recourse, therefore, it is contended, will be to a bond issue, and there are many well-informed people who believe that if this Congress docs not pass a prohibitive resolution before adjournment $50,000,000 or more will soon be issued. That there would be no difficulty in placing any reasonable amount, even at the premium exacted in February, seems apparent from the fact that the February bonds are being sold at a premium of 1.27 per cent. Glasses Versus Masses. It may take as long to pass the Wil son tariff bill as it did to pass the Mc Kinley bill. As a rule, it is more diffi cult to secure legislation favoring the masses than it is to secure legislation in favor ot the classes. The classes are clamoring and persistent ; the masses stay quietly at home and think. Philadelphia Record. Yes, times will likely be harder now that is harder for our trusts and combines, but vastly better for the masses. We take it for granted, how ever, that our fostered trusts and com bines are rich enough to stand the pressure and still escape the poor house. The trouble is they have grown too rich under the special and foster ing care they have always received at the hands of the Republican party. Nothing but the firm and deter mined attitude of President Cleveland, assisted by a very few memben of the House of Representatives, has avoided the further infliction of the McKinley tariff upon the consumers of America. To defeat all tariff re formation whatever was no doubt th e sole aim and purpose of the combines but they overreached themselves. As to harder times under the re formation secured, the time between the present and the next Presidential election is sufficient to determine it. If they prove to be any worse thau we have been having our trusts and com pines can easily find special favor again no doubt,with the use of a little time and money upon the ways and means committees.
