Railroad Abandons Steam The Buffalo & Lockport Railway lias the distinction of being the first steam road in the world to abandon the steam locomotives and handle its entire traffic by electricity. The road is made up of a branch of the Erie, which runs from Lockport to Tonawanda, a distance of 14 miles, and it also reaches' Buffalo, 11 miles, making a total of 25 miles. The road was formerly operated by four steam locomotives. The new equip ment of the road consists of four forty-five ton electric locomotives made by the General Electric Com pany. The passenger equipment comprises ten electric motor cars, mounted on eight wheels. The power is all furnished from Niagara Falls by the transmission line. The distribution is at Lock port, Tonawanda and Buffalo. On the first trip the electric locomotives hauled sixteen heavily loaded and six empty freight cars, all standard Erie pattern. The theory of* handling the pas senger service has been changed en tirely. Instead of long intervals between trains the cars are run 011 half-hour headway. This requires five cars to operate the 25 miles be tween Lockport and Buffalo. The speed is high. Over their own right of way the cars ran on their first trip at the rate of 50 miles per hour including stops. The new cars are much admired, and the traffic has already become double that of the steam road. The rates ot fare have been reduced 25 per cent. This is every indication that still further increase will take place in the passenger traffic. "He Lies Like a Dog!'' Did you ever hear it said of an untruthful person, "He lies like a dog?" Yes. Well, did you ever stop to think that a dog is the most truth ful of animals ? If he don't like you he says so very plainly, right to your face. If he don't care anything about you one way or another, he simply ignores you, perhaps responding to friendly advances with a good-natured wag of his expressive tail, which merely means, " Good morning, quite pleasant this morning." And if he really likes you, you can depend upon his friendship through prosperity nd adversity. You may be cut by icent society, your credit gone, your clothes ragged, your wife gone home to • her folks," and your children ashamed to own you, but your dog is a closer friend than ever. We have heard of a man so mean that his dog wouldn't follow him, but we don't believe it. Human nature never sunk to so low a state of depravity that a dog wouldn't cling to the wreck, through gratefulness for past favors. Don't say "He lies like a dog." Say rather, of the truthful, upright man, "He is as honest as a dog," and the man who knows any thing about dogs will esteem it a com pliment. Tile local newspaper is an essen tial to modern comfort and progress. No man who can read, and is half a man, goes to bed without having looked over his newspaper, and when the children are asleep, and therfe is a few minutes to spare, the ever handy paper gets its share of attention from all the women folks. No door is thick enough to keep out the newspaper and its adver tising ; no chamber is too remote, or too quiet, for the favorite family paper ; no surveillance is so strict but the newspaper is admitted ; and it brings its messages of wars, the rumors of wars, of elections, mar riages, births and deaths—thdad vertisemeuts. You need not drive by the street carrying the sign boards ; you need not accept the dodger held out to you by the small boy ; you need not open the door to receive samples ; but you buy your regular family newspa per —for you would as soon be without your supper as without it, and in it, and a part of it—neces sary to the continuance of its life— are the advertisement.— National Advertiser. DEAFNESS CANNOT BE CURED by local applications, as they cannot reach the diseased portion of the ear. There is only one way to cure deaf ness, and that is by constitutional remedies. Deafness is caused by an inflamed condition of the mucous lin ing of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube is inflamed you have a rum bling sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is entirely closed, deafness is the result, and unless the inflamma tion can be taken out and this tube restored to its normal condition, hear ing will be destroyed forever; nine cases out of ten are caused by catarrh, which is nothing but an inflamed con dition of the mucous surfaces. We will give one hundred dollars for any case of deafness (caused by catarrh) that cannot be cured by Hall's Catarrh Cure. Send fci circu lars; free. F. J. CrIENEY & CO., Toledg, O.

Their Manipulation In Dehnnchery of Our Polities—llow a llonc :ioont Dem ocratic Law Operated totlie I'rofttof tlio People and Was Surreptitiously Sot Aside l>y tlieMaehlue~Tbe Proof That Democrats, When Tho.v Are In, Do Real Reform Work. The state treasury balances, whether real or fictitious, have never since 1888 fallen below J3.687.035 and have gone as high as 36,679,854. According to the reports of the auditor general and state treasurer they have been, for the last ten years, as follows : 1888 $3,687,035.65 1889 3,969,587.53 1890 4,426,645.45 1891 6,679,854.55 1892 6,000,644.95 1893 6,830,308.07 1894 5,014,642.18 1895* 7 3,429.654.07 1896 6,062,604.19 1897 5,136,700.02 Average $4,923,767.66 These are the balances at the end of each fiscal year. The monthly balances are approximately the same. No money is kept in the treasury. It is all In the banks. Here we have, therefore, an average of about $5,000,000 constantly In the favored fiscal Institutions. This Is so large a proportion of the total re sources of many of them that financiers say a sudden withdrawal of the whole line would create something like a panic. Indeed, that reason has more than once been put forward to stay re forms Intended to prevent the carrying of such balances, by cutting down taxes when the balances have been real, or requiring that the money be paid out when they are manufactured. When banks are without adequate money re sources of their own, depositing with them ceases to be safe. It Is notorious that the machine has been In large part maintained from in terest privately paid on the deposits to Its leaders. Smedley Darlington, of the collapsed West Chester bank, open ly admits that he paid such Interest, and glories in It. Responding most reluctantly to popu lar protests against the outrage and de mand that It cease, the legislature of 1897 passed the act the pay ment of IV2 and 2 per cent interest to the state. The state treasurer selects the de positories with the approval of the board of revenue commissioners. The metr.' ers of this hoard are the auditor general (Quay machinite) the state treasurer (Quaymachinite) and the sec retary of the commonwealth (the head of the Martin machine). And since most of the depositories are with the Quay machine. It will be seen that that machine has everything In connection with this business nicely within Its own control. The best possible proof that this mat ter of the state balances has been a source of unusual profit to the favored banks, and that they have been willing contributors to the support of the ma chine, in return for the favor of the deposits, abides In the fact that no word of open protest has been made against the new law (which went Into operation on the first Monday In May of this year, 1898) and that there Is almost as urgent a call on their part, to be per mitted to continue as depositories as ever. Possibly the law will curtail to some extent the machine gain there from, and that of the Individual bene ficiaries. But the money is worth to the banks that carry It more than the 1% and 2 per cent they are required to pay for Its use, and It may be safely assumed that the machine leaders are not unaware thereof. There are stories current In Harrisburg and elsewhere that banks have paid, as bonus to those acting as intermediaries to secure de posits, sums In excess of 134 and 2 per cent. And, while K might be some what difficult to legally prove these al legations, no one familiar with the do ings "on the Hill" of recent years can be found to doubt their accuracy. It Is the boast of the machine lead ers that the state has never been to any serious extent a loser through the fail ure of banks carrying state deposits. Where such failures have occurred the loss Is alleged to have fallen upon the treasurers and their bondsmen, or upon the wealthy machine politicians who have afterwards felt It Incumbent upon them, or been In effect compelled, to make the treasurers and bondsmen good. The act of 1897 inaugurates a new order of things In this connection. Section 4 of the act provides that the state treasurer "shall not be held perso nally liable for any moneys that may be lost by reason of the failure or In solvency of any bank, banking Institu tion or trust company, selected as aforesaid." Hereafter, therefore, burst ed banks, If there be Insufficiency in the bank's bonds or default In their bondsmen, will mulct the treasury and the people Instead of the treasurers. The act referred to Is a concession to popular opinion created largely by Democratic platforms, Democratic newspapers and Democratic Btump ora tors, but It Is far from being as safe for and profitable to the state as was an act originating with the Democrats In 1883, and passed by the legislature of that year and approved by the then governor, Robert E. Pattlson. That act was known as the Humes' sinking fund act,and provided that when state bonds were not to be had the surplus moneys In the sinking fund should be Invested In United States bonds. It was the cus tom In those days to carry the big end of the balances In the sinking fund, presumably because, when moneys go Into that fund, there Is no' legal way of getting them out again, except to pay the state's bonded debt, and having large sums there Insured large sums for distribution among the banks. There were about 22,600,000 then In the sink ing fund, and not quite as much In the general fund. Senator Humes (Demo crat) the father of the act, pointed out that 22,000,000 of the slnlflng fund bal ance, which was not needed to take up bonds, could be utilized to save the state during the term the bonds then out standing liuu to run from one to three and a half millions. The bill was fierce ly fought by the retainer)) of the Re publican machine In both houses, and did not pass the lower body until the night before the adjournment, when It did not have a single vote' to spare. However, as already stated, It was signed by Governor Pattlson and be came a law. For eight years It remain THE COLUMBIAN, BLOOMSBURQ, PA. ' d In operation, and It la the testimony, both of those who had to do with the execution of the act and of the books, that it operated largely to the advan tage of the treasury. It brought the state considerably more than 1(4 or 2 per cent on its moneys that would oth erwise have been farmed out to the banks gratis, and it involved absolute ly no possibility of less. Its repeal was no; actual, but vir tual. It was not manly, but tricky, after the manner of all ehe doings of the machine. In 1891 legislation was had largely lessening the flow of money Into the sinking fund, so that there re mained in that fund practically nothing to be Invested under the Humes act. This was not because the balances car ried were any less. In fact, they were larger in that year and the year fol lowing than ever before or since. But they were kept mainly in the general fund, and the bi.nks got them again, and the machine treasury and the ma chineites reveled correspondingly. Here we have the convincing proofs that, when the Democrats are In, they do real reform work, and that the great ado recently made In so-called Independent reform circles touching the debauchery of our politics through ma nipulation of the state deposits Is a very old story to the workers of the Democratic party." THE PADDED PAY ROLL. Mr. Watinmaker, In Reply to Chair man Klktn, Gives the Names and Record aof Some of the Men Who *3 Were on the Roll. In his Media speech Mr. Wanamaker said; "Chairman Elkin, for shame. Dare you stand up and assert that all the politicians who were on the padded pay roil performed any service to the state? Dare you assert that Philip Gorl, of Shechequin, Bradford county, who was appointed to pay a political debt the machine owed to the now discarded Louis Piollet, and who drew from the padded pay roll JI.OBO, ever performed any service to the state? "Dare you assert that James R. Greiner, of Luzerne county, now serv ing sentence In the Eastern penitenti ary for murder, who, as a political re ward from the machine, received nearly $l,lOO from the padded pay roll, a;.J who visited Harrisburg but three days during the session, performed any ser vice to the state? "Dare you assert that Jonathan Jones, of Schuylkill county, who testi fied under oath in a libel case at Potts ville in November, 1897, that his name was placed on the padded pay roll by Senator Coyle, a Quay senator, who dn-w for him SSOO. though he. Tones, not oiict iii Laiiiabui'g during the session, performeiLany service to the state? "I have in my possession other names that were on the padded pay roll, and the amounts of salary they received, and stand ready to furnish before a court of record Indisputable proof that these men performed no labor for the state, and that the money was paid as political rewards. "I am discussing Mr. Elkin as a public official, tand not as a private In dividual, and all Interrogatories are ad dressed to him as the official head of an organization. "Chairman Elkin, though you have been declared an unfaithful state offi cial and have been dismissed for causo from public office, and though your at tempted defense Is a complete confes sion of your guilt, and your explana tions, in the light of historical facts, have convicted you of the grossest mis representations, still, under the prin ciple of law that grants immunity to a coplotter who turns state's evidence, and gives testimony that will result to the good of the public, there may yet be left a chance for you to save yourself, in some degree, if you will give to the people of this state the inside history of that fatal indemnity bond transaction." WHAT IT COSTS - To Itnn the State Department Under Quay ism as Compared With the Cost Under Democratic Management. Here arc some figures showing the cost of certain branches of the state government under the appropriation acts of 1883 and 1897 respectively, the former having been the nearest ap proach to a Democratic year the state has had since the war: Executive offices $517,006 $1,513,971 Legislative expense .. 541,111 724,828 Judicial expenses 967,000 1,342,682 Printing and binding. 605,863 1.130.954 $2,630,980 $4,722,465 These figures need little explanation. They show that in fourteen years, un der the unbroken direction of Republi can lawmakers, executive departments have been multiplied, salaries increased, new and useless deputies and clerks employed and contingent funds padded, until from a half a million, our execu tive expenses have swelled to a mil lion and a half for each two years. They show that while the number of senators and members and the al lowances for mllea'ge, stationery and postage are the same as in 1883, by in creasing the already large enough force of clerks and other employes, by add ing enormously to contingent expense to fee party favorites, by awarding pay for regular committee services, by creating whitewashing and fraudulent investigating committees (whose per quisites were not vetoed), by piling up the cost of contested elections, etc., they have swelled the charge upon the people for holding a legislative session about $200,000, or over 35 per cent. They show that the expenditure for printing and binding the often worse than useless state publications has al most doubled, since 1883, although the actual cost of doing that kind of work has been very materially reduced in the Interval. They show that even the bench has been made to contribute to the Imposi tion largely by laws that multiply the number of judges beyond all reason and then making statutes thnt enable some of them to add almost 50 per cent to their legal salaries by holding court In other districts In years when. In or der to keep up with the trial lists, they must have other judges come and hold court In their o\yn districts. They show, in brief, that under Re publican rule, the system is rotten from core to rind, and that there 13 but one chance for real reform, which lies In electing a Democratic executive ad ministration ard a Democratic legisla ture. _ Qood Goods Well Advertised. Going the rounds of the press is an item staling that the Royal Baking Powder Company is the largest ad vertiser in America. Of course, the business itself must be an enormous one to justify so great an expenditure in publicity. There is no fallacy more dangerous than that success can be gained by advertising an article of indiderent merit. But, given an ar ticle ol the highest quality like Royal Baking Powder, which, when the housekeeper has once used, she finds if she desires the best food, she can not do without, then the greatest measure of success is attained by keeping it continuously before the public. Great merit and good ad vertising are both essential to make a product a great success. The Royal Baking Powder possessing the first, its proprietors have wisely used the second, and the result is apparent throughont the land. The Royal Company believe that there is no me dium for advertising like the news papers, since in these enlightened days everybody reads them. Gored by an Elk. Samuel Henderson, game keeper at Alex Billmeyer's preserves, near Wash ingtonville, was seriously and perhaps fatally injured last week says the Mil ton Record , Henderson was showing two young travelling men named Mc- Manus and McMiller through the pre serves and as the party approached the elk's enclosure the animal sudden ly became enraged and made a lunge at them. The elk has been so vicious of late that it had to be kept apart from the other game. When the ani mal rushed at them it succeded in get ting its head through the strands of the wire fence and Henderson who was standing close was caught by its antlers and thrown to the ground. While lying prostrate the elk gored hin. again and again before the others could drag him away. He tvas re moved to the house and a physician summoned hut he did not recover consciousness for several hours and it is feared lie will die. Mr. Billmeyer says he intends to shoot the elk as it is too dangerous to have about. The bride blushed as vividly as pos sible, considering her ebony skin. "It is customary to kiss the bride," said the pale-faced clergyman, "but I'll omit it on this occasion."
