o TUP millMRIAN. BLOOMSBURG. WASHINGTON. our Regular Correspondent. Washington, Sept. t, 1895. When a man gives information to an enemv in time of war he is regard- ed as a public enemy ana upon proot - . . 1 of his guilt he is executed and buried in a traitor's disgraced grave. But these is no way to punish those who prove themselves to be still worse enemies of the country by trying to precipitate a financial panic through misrepresentation of the eondition of the nation's finance and of the inten tions of the administration. A private individual can, through appeal to the courts, have the man who seeks to injure his credit and commercial standing by making untrue and parti ally true but misrepresenting state ments punished, but members of the administration have no way of reach ing the men who, solely for a partisan purpose, are daily writing and circulat ing attacks upon the credit of the U. S. in the shape of willful misstate ments concerning the Treasury and the intention of Secretary Carlisle. Men who bring on a financial panic do a thousand times more harm than those who betrav an army on the eve of battle, and there ought to be some way of Dunishine them as traitors to their country. If that is not feasible, Congress should at least so legislate that the government, through the heads of the executive departments, should have the same right to have a newspaper writer or editor arrested for criminal libel as the citizen now has. With such a law upon our stat ute books the present partisan misrep resentations of President Cleveland and Secretary Carlisle in republican newspapers would not be possible and the probabilities of financial panic would be decidedly lessened. About as near half of the adminis tration as could be got at attended the dedication of the battlefield of Chickamaucua as a national park. Vice-President Stevenson and Secre taries Lamont, Herbert, Smith and Attorney General Harmon going, and Secretaries Olnev. Carlisle, Morton and Postmaster General Wilson re maininc in Washington. Secretary Carlisle expected to have gone, but circumstances, aided by unpatriotic misrepresentations, made it advisable that he should remain at his post A gentleman who has recently been m Florida on business said : " bena tor Ctll in advocating the early re cognition of the Cuban revolutionists bv this government speaks for a very farce maioritv of the people of Florida. This sympathy for the Cubans is worthy to be classed high, too, when it is remembered that Florida is yearly becoming a greater rival of Cuba in the production of tobacco used in the manufacture of fine dears." , Secretary Lamont's action in ad vancine out of his own pocket the money to make up the shortage in paying the June salaries of the officers and men ot the army is unpreceaent ed but hiehly creditable. Had he not done so they would have had to wait for Congress to rectify the error that made the shortage before they could cet their salaries. Senator Vest indignantly denies the authenticity of the recently published interview which made him announce a change of front on the silver question, and says he is still for free coinage at 16 to 1, as he has always been. Hon. T. W. Tudd, U. S. District Attorney for Utah, is visiting Wash ington. He says : ' There is much in the situation in Utah to make the democrats hopeful of electing their State ticket and two U. S. Senators I believe that it is not putt'nz it one whit too strong to say that our chances of success are fully equal to those of the opposition. Utah has enjoyed two successive seasons of good crops, and the condition of business is satis factory. The people are feeling very good over the return of better times, and that will inure to the benefit of the democracy. If we carry the Terri tory this year it is almost a sure thing that it will go the same way in 96.' The eeneral impression seems to be that the Lawyers of Mora displayed a monumental cheek when they filed a protest against the action of Secretary Olney in accepting a settlement of the Mora claim without compelling Spain to pay the interest from the date of the claim. Secretary Olney will take no notice of the protest. He did not act in this matter as the attorney or collector for Mora, but as the representative of the United States government. So far as this govern ment is concerned the settlement was final Why Mot You? when thousands ot people are taking Hood's Sarsaparilla to over come the weakness and languor which are so common at this season, why are you not doing the same ?

There is something almost pathetic in the spectacle 01 tne sieam loco motive engaged in a hopeless fight with the all-conquering trolley. We can all remember Mr. Raskin s dia tribe aeainst railways, and there are 8ome 0f us who can go back to a day t- ' . when it was a distinction to have been a European traveller. A man who had made the grand tour was famil iarly known as a Hadji, and presum ably entitled to the privilege of wear ing a green turban, if it so pleased him. And then came steam, which changed all that ; and now it is elec tricity, and piston-rods and cylinder boxes are doomed to swell the dust heap along with the post horns and leathern curtains of the stage coach. The trolley is cheaper and more effective, and that tells the story. Where we used to build branch rail roads we now put up a trolley line, saving both in initial cost and in sub sequent operating expenses. Road wagon and private carriages to run independently over a system of trol ley lines extending in a vast net-work throughout creation are a possible feature of the near future, and in the mean time experiments are being made on the great trunk lines looking towards an entire change in motive power. One of the New England railways has already introduced the trolley on branch lines ; the big elec tric motor built for the Baltimore and Ohio Company has more than fulfilled expectations ; an electric supply com pany has taken the contract to turn the elevated railroads of New York city into trolley lines ; and, according to newspaper reports, a syndicate is to construct an electric road between Chicago and New York, upon which the lourney of a thousand miles is to be regularly made inside of six hours The change is inevitable, and in logical accordance with the spirit ot the age. And vet one may be permitted to think with a fleeting regret of the old order that is changing so rapidly be fore our very eyes There was a cer tain element of picturesqueness, Mr. Ruskin to the contrary, in locomotion by steam. The engine itself, an uncouth Frankenstein, with stertorous lungs and heart of fire, was yet irre sistibly attractive in its very ugliness, and commanded respect as the visible embodiment of a mighty power. And then the fast trains, with their fascina ting popular nomenclature, "The Flying Dutchman, " The Wild Irish man." and our own "Limited" and " Exposition Flyer." It was a dis tinction in itself to have been a passen ger on the " Scotsman " or the " Cannon-Ball," just as in the old days it was a matter of pride to have had one's name inscribed on the booking sheet of the " Royal George " or the " West of England Mail." How pro saically it will read on the time-tables of the future : " Cars for Chicago and San Francisco will be run on ten minutes' headway ; to Jerusalem, Kamtchatka, and far Cathay every half hour."

Ritcher, member for Lycom ing county of the State Board of Health, has ordered the Pennsylvania railroad to remove 1,000 feet of the embankment at the river bridge east of Williamsport This embankment, it is contended, is the cause of much of the overflow in times of high water in the Susquehanna river. Superin tendant Robert Nelson says the idea of Dr. Ritcher is foolish. The rail road runs upon the top of the embank ment. Children Cry for Pitcher's Castorla. OUT OF POLITICS W. U. Kernel Retires to Attend to Pri vate Business. W. U. Hensel has sent the follow ing to the editors of the Lancaster Examiner : " In what purports to be your own account of the proceedings of the late Democratic State Convention at Wil liamsport, the following appears in your newspaper of the 12 inst : " Among those who labored most industriously to defeat Judge McCar thy was ex-Attorney General Hensel, who, it is alleged, vowed that Lancas ter should not send one delegate for McCarthy. These statements are not true, as you might easily have ascertained. On the contrary, the facts are that : 1. I was not at the State Con vention, being engaged in the trial of a cause in the Lancaster county courts from Tuesday morning until lhurs day evening. a. I did not 'labor most industri ously to defeat Judge McCarthy.' I did not seek in any way to influence any delegate from this or any other district or county to vote for or against any candidate before the con vention. " While I am at it, let me say to you and to all whom it may concern, that henceforth I propose to take no part whatever in politics except that of a single, private citizen, responsible to myself alone. I will not be a mem ber of any party committee, a dele gate to any political convention, a participant in nny party caucus, coun cil r conference : I will not seek in any way to influence appointments or nominations, nor will I be in any de gree responsible for them. " I believe in an absolutely non partisan judiciary ; in a strictly busi ness administration of municipal af fairs, and in the total eradication of the improper use of money at primary or general elections j and I will exer cise the right to vote hereafter accord ing to these beliefs regardless of any partisan direction. " subject to this reservation, l am and propose to remain, a Democrat, my vote and voice and pen and money shall be, as heretofore, at the serv.ee of the Democratic party if needed or asked for to aid in any legitimate way 'the election of its can didates, local, state or national, when ever they are fairly nominated and truly representatives of Democratic principles- " I have no doubt this expression will be . misunderstood by some cherished friends, and 1 know it will be misrepresented by some malignant enemies. While all this may give me some concern, it will not be my tauit. Nor will it influence me to depart from the course I have marked out for myself, to give to my profession and private business a large portion of that time and energy which for near ly twenty-five years I have devoted to party politics. 1 This shall be my 'last word on this subject." BOARD WANTS TO STAT. State Agriculturists Object to Being Legit lated Ont of Office. The state board of agriculture at its annual meeting next January will adopt measures to prevent it from being legislated out of existence. The act enacted by the last legislature creating the department of agriculture seeks to abolish the board by retiring one third of Us membership annually. The law was loosely drawn and its provisions are so contradictory that members of the board claim it is nuga tory and cannot be enforced so far as it relates to that body. The general appropriation bill ap propriates $2,000 to the board for the next two years with the provison that " no vacancy in its membership shall hereafter be filled." Attorney General McCormick has notified secretary Edge that members of the board can not be allowed their expenses out of this appropriation for attendance upon the annual meetings if they fill vacan cies in the membership as they exist, The board will probably refuse to ac cept the appropriation and receive new members at its annual meetings in 1896 and 1897 and then go before the next legislature and endeavor to secure the enactment of a law to keep it intact and authorize it to receive the appropriation. No mystery about it. When the Shakers offered some time ago to give away a bottle of their Digestive Cordial to any one who might call at their New York office, there was a great rush and a great rmny people thought they were crazy. Subsequent events prove it to' have been a very clever advertising trans action, for although they gave away thousands of bottles, it was in the end profitable ; nearly every one that took a free bottle came back for more and paid for it with pleasure, saying they had derived better results from its use than from any other medicine they had ever used. There is nothing so uniformly suc cessful In the treatment of stomach troubles as the Shaker Digestive Cordial, and what is better than all, it relieves at once.

The complete novel in the October issue of Jsippmcolt , " My strange Patient," contains some adventures that are by no means commonplace. The author, William T. Nichols, though hitherto little known, has a story to tell, and knows how to tell it in a way to catch the reader's interest in his first paragraph and hold it un falteringly to the end. The other tales of this number are The Train for Tarrow's," by Virginia Woodward Cloud, and ' Carroll s Cows," by E. L. C. In an article at once crisp and sona, Fred. Perry Towers discusses " Ethics and Economics," and shows that the world's business must of necessity be conducted on business principles, and that considerations of philanthropy and sentiment, while of value in their proper, place, are secondary, not primary.
