TnE County Commissioners, are about to ask the Court for authority o is?ue bonds to the amount of fifty thousand dollars, redeemable in from Cve to twenty years, bearing four per cent. Interest. The borrowing of this money is mads necessary by the great expense upon the county caused by the disastrous floo J of the 31st of May and by the consequent loss of a large amount of revenue that, had It not been for the tlood, would have been collected from the flooded districts. As a rale the people do' not care for expense when their money is wisely and judiciously expended. Fifty thousand dollars is Dot a great amount for Cam bria county in twenty years and if tzi pecded for the best interests of the people of the county, the taxpayers will dive down into the bottomest depths of their pockets when the taxgatherer makes his annual pilgrimage and paj their quota without a murmur.

Postmaster-General Wanamaker'a re port shows that there is one feature of the policy of the Administration that he has adopted witb avidity, and that is the principle of shifting responsibili ty. It was his purpose to have the postage on fonrthsclaas matter reduced, which meant a cheap Government ex press for the beLect of the Grand De pot in Philadelphia ; but be did not want to make aucb a recomendi'.ion on his own authority, so the opinions of thirty-two postmasters throughout the country were asked. They understood what was wanted, and gT an answer to his proposition, witb one exception. This placed Mr. Wanamaker in poeN tiou to go before Congress witb his scheme for bringing "the people of all communities in communication with the markets of all the cities." Unfor tunately for "Cheap John." however. Lis scheme was made public, and it evoked such an outburst from the press that it was incontinently abandoned. Or, as the Postmaeter General says In his report, he has concluded that it is not wise to add to the burdens of the Department at the present time. In short, Mr. Wanamaker would like to Increase the profits of the Grand Depot at Government expense, but be doesn't d3re to, even after having put on thirty one postmasters the responsibility of clamoring for the change. Mr. Wanamaker'a action ia this mat ter is precisely la line witb the Preai dent's In many instances.. General Harrison has refused repeatedly to make appointments until the Senators or Congressmen interested have agreed opon a candidate. If a bad choice were made, then they would have the greater part of the blame, This was Ms poli cy In selecting a successor for Corpora! Tanner, when be insisted upon a man who was acceptable to the Grand Army of the Republic. Both General Harrison and Mr. Wan amaker should avoid trimming, and adopt the old adage, "First be sure you are right, then go ahead." The conse quences will take care of themselves. But is Mr. Wanamsker's case bis mind is so warped that he regards anything that is of benefit to the Grand Depot as right. -V. 1. Star. The Decadence or the Ohio Republican. Foraker slaughtered !

Simultaneously witb the defeat of McKinley for Speaker a signal dtfeat. eince he received a much smaller, sup port than he claimed Senator John Sherman of Ohio received a severe set back at the White Houne. He was plainly told by the President that no Ohio man would he appointed to CI1 the vacancy on the Supreme Court Bench canted by thedMtb of Judg Matthews.

Tbe total collections of Internal Revenue for the first four months of the fiscal year were 1G.7S3,3oO, an Increase of vL,0.J0,;k4 as compared with the collec tions durinz the corresoondinsr neriod of the Jait year. The increase bas averaged ovr 51 000,000 a month and and was principally due to the increased consumption of spirits, tobacco and fermented liquors. -The lucreasd on eplrits aic&e wm ti.C'Jb.lOO. President li-rrison's First Message Passing by the multifarious naatter at home and abroad considered, its general purport is for vast increase of the powers of the Federal government, changing its character, and an Increase in governmental expenditures ; for a de crease of "home rule" or State rights and against a decrease of taxation. We suppose that fairly represents the difference between Federalism and De mrcracy. The President finds a surplus, even witb beavr expenditures for bonds, ($170,000,000 in 15 months), as trouble some a question as bis predecessor did ; but his only recommendation for a de crease of taxes is the repeal of the to bncco tax and the tax on spirits used in the arts and manufactures. He advises a revision of our tariff laws, bat in what wav his views are unsatisfactory and pointless. The protective princi ple, be insists, must be maintained, but is willing to taae a small dose of free raw material, provided it hurts no one. The Mills bill could very well come in nnder the President's vague recommen dations, or the Allison bill, which is in some respects worse than the existing war tariff. The Democrats have do reason to complain of the President's attitude on the tax question. His predecessor found a remedy for the ear plus by ler.ving the money in the pock ets of the people. Mr. Harrison has none. On the silver celnage question, the President cannot find it in him to ad vise free coinage or the continuance even of the present limited rate. He gives a half-way ascent to Windom's plan to issue mint certificates for silver bullion at its market value. This pro position baa not been fully disclosed and Its merits or defects cannot well be, discussed. President Arthur wae the first Repub lican President to drop the South in bis messages as a distinct element requir ing exceptional treatment. This bad a good effect. But President Harrison takes up the old, tattered, nasty and odious bloody abirt, and tries to warm into some sort of life by resommend ine a national election law. He talks like a saint on the wrongs of the colored mao ; bnt back of it all is the real gist of the thiu, which is to give his Ad ministration the api;Ttment of 150.000 well paid officeholders, to do the work, the Quays and Mahones of tne party may assign them in managing elec tions, counting the v tes and declaring the results. It is a 6cheme to perpet uate the minority party permanently in power, and restore organized bell at the South. All the pious sniffles cf bis excellency cannot abate one jot the odious character of his aneakinr wsy of Fngar-coating the villainy. Piuivrg Post. Boston's Big Fire. Boston. November 2?.
