Unangst and daughter Jessie, are mnkirrr a protracted visit at Scranton and Waverly, N. Y. Their many friends wish them a happy time, The "Harvest Home" sermon preached by Row Houtz in Zion Church last S.ibbath was very inter esting. The church was nicely decorat ed by the ladies with the products of agriculture, the vne and the orchard. Good singing in the Zion Church. Mrs. Mcllertry is entitled to much praise in walking every Sabbath from Stillwater to Ziun Church and con ducting her EiWe Class Sundays, and taking so large interest in the Sabbath school. That school house between Jones town and Bcndertbwn had better be built in a more desirable locality. The first has been reduced to ashes before completion, thongh it is not quite cer tain whether it was the work of incen diary or carelessness from smoking pipes by some of the trustees of the school. There is great aversion to patting the school-house there. The road leading toward Rhorsburg has actually been improved. The bowlders have been covered with a thin coat of clay. Miracles do not altogether belong to ancient days. Cora Amerman fell 16 feet through the trestle work of the Railroad bridge not long since, upon a mass of bowlders, and received no injury with the exception of being stunned. Mrs. Wooliver of Greenwood, and Mrs. Hess and two children have been visiting Berwick. Mrs. Wooliver has proceeded to Stockton N. J., on a visit The water-power of the Wesley and . Henry Bowman mill has been fully demonstrated during the recent drouth. The mill never stopped on account of scarcity of water. It is one of the finest water-powers in the State. Henry has graduated in the ' Bcdal Gold Cure," of Bio jrasburg, and seems to have undergone a complete trans formation. Henry is very popular, and has many frienJs. No one con tests his handsome flour. Three millers constantly employed in the mill. E. M. Launch's cider-press and pnmpmaking, are under fall headway. The Schools hereabouts have inau gurated teach ng. E. J. Bowman has again become a resident of Forks. Mack kobbins is an accomplished fisherman.

Pealer hasn't the bejt looking baby in this section , Mr. R. C. Wheeler of New York City, has become a resident of Forks. In the way of intelligence he is a fine accession to the community ; has traveled largely and is a fine conver sationdist. A lady in our community, Betsey Miller, has a crop of peaches, the ize of 50 bushels, in good healthy shape. She is living alone, and has no way of getting them to market We wonder if some of the enterprising merchants or grocermen of Bloomsburg would not take them o ff her hands by call ing up and striking a bargain. Alfred Amerman is getting along finely learning telegraphy at the Cata wissa Railroad depot Silas E. Moyer has purchased the Evansville Mill, and has employed Captain Gara to put into it new ma chinery. The Captain is an accom plished mill wright and bridge builder and will do an excellent job ? Free Wool. Practical experience should be worth more than political theorizin about wool or anything else. Wool being now free as the air you breathe, the effects of its freedom affords a good study for the false political economist as well as the deluded home producer. The advanced rates now ofiered for home grown wool is a puzzler for many a home producer who is in love with the McKinley notion about it. What is most strange aoout it is the stubborn fact that the increased tariff on wool in 1890 dimin ished its price, and the farmer knows it who has tried to sell it in the past four years. Prices never declined so much and so rapidly as during these four years. It don't take much memory to remember that much. How much has the decline in price been under the high protection of 1890? Well, from 35 to 60 percent. High duties on wool, you know, was to have caused better prices for farmers who raise sheep. But did the McKinley protection of a particular few (who were no doubt benefitted) raise or lower the price of wool for the farmer ? They ought to know which way it went and so ought the unprotected buyer of woolen garments. We assert without fear of successful contradiction that high duties on wool have been a snare and a cheat, especially so far as raising prices for the American farmer is concerned, or as tending to benefit anybody except a few manufacturers. Under this high tariff delusion it was conjectured (and in fact believed by many farmers) that free wool would be ruinous. We have not suffered the dreaded calamity of free wool very long, but short as the time is, let us make comparison between high pro tection and no protection. All wools are now free of any duty whatever for the first time iu 73 years. Now let's see what's the matter with the sheep industry under free wool. We have in this country a news paper called the American Wool and Cotton Reporter. It makes a specialty of looking after the rise and fail of these particular commodities. It has been looking sharp on the wool question since August 28th, when all wool became free under the operation of the new tariff bill. This paper says that Ohio and Pennsylvania wool was worth, just previous to the removal of the tariff, from 19 to 20 cts per pound ; immediately after the removal of the tariff it brought the farmer from 21 to 23 cents. The farmer knows whether wool is declining or not since free. Foreign or Australian wool, the Reporter says, wai worth from 30 to 33 cents a pound before the tariff was remoYecL after removal of tariff it dropped to nearly Ameri can figures after traveling across the ocean. In other words, and briefly summarized, the foreign product declined about 40 per cent, while domestic wool advanced 10 per cent, inside of two months. How is that for the prophecied ruination ? We rather apprehend that the same kind of ruination would have occurred had sugar, coal, and iron been placed on the free list. Ths President and a few faithful representatives of the people sought to have them there for the masses, tut the benefits of the classes are not so easily abrogated as some folks think. It is well for the voter to remember in this connection that our protected and fostered, industries from Maine to California are still stronger than the Republican party, stronger than the Democratic party and monger than all parties combined. It remains with the people without regard to party to say whether this tremendous power shall be humiliated or made more powerful and arrogant through special protection. It is no wonder "the harvest is plenty and the laborers few " in Russia. Word reaches us by way of lightning under the ocean that eight farmers at Poganooka hired 21 laborers to har vest their crops, and, having finished their woik, they paid them off and then murdered them for the money they had paid them. That's the way they reduce wages 100 per cent, in Russia. We are glad to report that their awful cut down in wages and wage-earners was detected, and that the farmers were landed in jail, but it is a little doubtful whether any great punishment is meted out in Russia to the land owner who murders a serf. fSitt ol with itarth and glon term.

A recent dispatch to California dated September 16th, says that Rev. James Wylie, a Scotch Presbyterian mission ary, was cruelly murdered near New Chwang, on August 10. Soldiers en route from Tien Tsin to Korea attack ed him with knives and sticks, cutting and beating him until unconscious. His colleagues lound him in the public roadway bleeding from his wounds. His lower jaw was broken in two places, and the injuries to his brain were fatal. He died Aucust iCth. i he attack is reported as entirely unprovoked. Another and later dis patch from Chefoo says two German lathers or the Catholic mission at Keneng-Chow, have been seized and held for a ransom by bandits. Tribulations of Senator Brice. Like the other four McKinley Democrats of the Senate who stub bornly stood out in the face of popu lar will, the wish of the President and the demand of the House ot Repre sentatives, Senator Brice ot Ohio is now in a peck of trouble. In fact re tribution has thus early struck him and retired him. In recent conven tion assembled the Ohio Democrats said : "We cordially indorse the hieh- minded, courageous and untiring ef forts of our Democratic President, and 01 the lower House of Congress, to keep the faith, pledged to the people when they were elected, of thorough tarin reiorm ; ana we denounce the conduct of the self-styled conservative Senators, and especially the conduct of Senator Brice, of Ohio, as a shame less betrayal of public trust. " We call upon Senator Brice to return to the Democratic faith, and to use his influence to secure to the peo ple of this country the benefits oi free coal, free iron ore and free sugar, and thus vindicate the cardinal principles of our faith in tariff reform. " We favor the election of United States Senators by the direct vote of the people ; and, as looking to that end, we favor a declaration in the platform, to be adopted at our next Democratic Convention, in favor of nominating next year a candidate for United States Senator to be voted for by the legislature when elected.

And now (better late than never) there are indications that western far- mers will enter into combination and store their own grain. It is said that over 3,000 Dakota farmers have at ready entered into a plan through which they hope to build an elevator of their own at West Superior, Wis consin. It is expected that 5,000 far mers of north and south Dakota will go into the plan. Of the capital stock. $200,000, about $50,000 is already pledged. It will be a sorry day for middle men who speculate in farm products wnen tne larmers once thorouehlv combine and look to their interests with all the venality and selfishness of other combines. Ingersoll on Suicide. The impertinent remark of Robert Ingersoll, the infidel, that " suicide is no sin," is apt to awaken enough skepticism in the minds of those who are taught to believe it is, to lead them to wonder whether he is not about right in his own case. In other words, were Ingersoll to commit sui cide, like Judas who betrayed his mas ter, the chances are that opinion would be divided as to which would be the greater sin for such as he to live or to die. If the full burden of conviction had never fell upon Judas, it is likely he would have kept the price of his betrayal of Jesus, and never contemplated suicide. As it was, however, he regarded himself too mean to live, and therefore a fit sub ject to suicide. He went about it like a man and has the world's respect for it, if not God's. And if the " Royal Robert, as Garfield used to call him, would gain more abiding respect in death than he can ever hope for in the life of an infidel, he has only to follow the illustrious example of Judas Iscariot. We are rather inclined to agree with Mr. Ingersoll in the belief that there may possibly be exception al cases in which suicide is no sin, while as a rule we think it is. In this same connection Shake speare makes Hamlet thus soliloquize: " To be, or not to be ; that is the question ; whether ' tis nobler in the mind to suffer the slings and arrows of outrageous fortune, or to take arms against a sea of troubles, and by op posing end them f lo die ; to sleep 5 no more ; and by a sleep to say we end the heart-ache and the thousand natural shocks that flesh is heir to ; tis a consummation devoutly to be wished. To die, to sleep ; to sleep ; perchance to dream 1 ay, there's the rub. For in that sleep . of death what dreams may come when we have shuffled off this mortal coil, must give us pause ; there's the respect that makes calamity of so long life. For who would bear the whips and scorns of rime, the oppressor's wrong, the proud man's contumely, the pangs of despised love, the law's delay when he himself might his quietus make with a bare bodkin? But that the dread of something after death, the undiscovered country from whose bourn no traveler returns puzzles the will, and makes us rather bear those ills we have than fly to others that we know not of? Thus conscience does make cowards of us all ; and thus the native hue of reso lution is sicklied o'er with the pale- cast of thought. Ingersoll thinks, and hence he lives, when perhaps 'twere better for him, like Judas, to go and hang himself. Married,, on September 8th, by Rev. W. G. Fereuaon. at the oarson- age, Charles D.
