Nathaniel S. Barry, of Bristol, N.
H., is said to be the oldest ex-governor
of a state in the United States. If he
survives until September 1, 1806, he will
be a centenarian. He was a boy of very
numbie parentage, became a tanner, as
General Grant did, and in 1865 was
elected governor of New Hampshire.
The next Senator from Montana will
be a Democrat, unless the Republicans
shall succeed in stealing the seat, as
they did those of the first two Senators
elected from that state. The Democrat
will have thirty-six votes on joint ballot,
the Republicans thirty-two and the Pop
ulists three. It behooves the Democrats
of that state to "watch out."
Lieutenant ColonelStreator, of the
Tenth regiment; appeared in the crimin
al court on Monday in Pittsburg for sen
tence in the case ef aggravated assault
and battery en Private lams. He was
acquitted on the charge, but he and the
other defendants had to pay the costs.
Judge lorter, wno tried tne case, was
not present and the H ntence was put off
until a later date.
Frank Garvin, of Pittsburg, theyoung
newspaper artist, who shot and killed
his young wife, Cora Redpath, three
days after their marriage, and was con
victed of voluntary manslaughter, was
sentenced by Judge McClung, last Mon-
day to nine years' imprisonment in the
Western Penitentiary. Judge McClung
said the evidence warranted a conviction
of murder in the first degree.
The French ministry was overthrown
last Monday by a majority of eighty-five
votes agaiimt the Government. The
question involved was the action of the
Ministry in failing to order an autonsv
on the body or Baron de Keinach.
whose sudden death was alleged to have
a more or less direct connection with the
p rosecution in the case of the Panama
Caualscantlal. The ministers immedi
ately handed in their resignations.
The spring election must be held un
the new Baker Ballot law. The new law
requires that all offices other than na
tional and state office, except township
and borough, cerlific. tes shall be filed
with the county comm.ssioners forty-
two days before the election. Hereto
fore it has been the custom to make the
nominations only a few days liefore the
election. In townships and boroughs
the nouiinations need not be held as
eaily, as the law requires that for
borough and township oni .-era the certif
icates be filed with the township or
borough anditors ten days before elec
tion.
Followisg is the way Congressman C.
A. Boutelle, of Maine, sizes up the next
President: "No one can justly claim
that Grover Cleveland is not a strong
manlwith the people. Nomiuated against
the protest of the Demexatic organiza
tion in his own state he has received one
of the greatest personal indorsements by
the jieople of the country ever known.
He has swept the country and is now by
far the greatest man in it. With such a
conservative and honest administration
as I believe he will give the country, he
will pass down in hiwtory as one of our
greatest statesmen. I am oliliged to ad-
mit this in all cando.-, although I am a
Republican."
Several pians, say9 the New York
World, have been suggested for discover-
ering the names wrongfully on the pen
sion list, for the purpose of cutting them
off.
Publicity is a great detective. It
would le a good idea to have the list of
pensioners in each county posted at the
county seat, that public officials, the de
serving old soldiers and citizens gener
ally might inspect it.
Objection has been made to this on the
score of cost. But with the pension list
increasing at the rate of over $25,00,000
a year any measure which would tend
to purge it of fraud and non-desert
would be truly economical.
Yet as local sentiment frequently winks
at raids upon the National Treasury by
citizens of the vicinage, it will not do to
depend altogether upon this method.
It wculd be well to supplement this
publicity with a commission for each
state, or perhaps for each judicial dis
trict, empowered to require proof of
justice and validity of every pension

Some means must be devised to scru
tinize and reform the pension list. Its
honor if not its safety depends upon an
honest revision.
It is generally accepted, says the Pitts
bure Pout, that Mr. Cleveland has ten
dered the importantl position of Secreta
ry of the Treasury to Hon. Charles S.
Fairchild, of New York, who was called
from the assistant secretaryship to the
neaa Ot tne department, in -ir. v,iee-

Mr. rairchild was a leader oi ue anu-

cago. It is stated as improbable that
New York .will have another cabinet
place. Mr. Whitney could probably
have such distinction if he desired, hut
he declines. Possibly he may be the Sen-

New York, although Mr.

The Illinois Steel company proposes
to shut down its steel rail plant this win
ter because of "the uncertainties of tariff
legislation." This is a protection false
hood. This company is in the steel
trust. This trust so complete!)' controls
the market that it fixes the price of rails
without regard to the state of the mark
et. An Summer the Drice of steel rails
has held at $30 a ton, although there
was very little demand for them. The
price in England is $20. This mill is to
be shut down because the other mills can
make all the rails that are needed. By
shutting down the expenses of operation
can be reduced. If the tariff was re
duced to $5 a ton from the present
tax of $13. 40. the difference between the
co6t of production here and abroad
would lie entirely covered. The cheap
ening of the price would also tend to in
crease the demand. Tho Illinois peo
ple know this and know that if the tariff
is so reduced they will; go on making
rails, although they may no louger ex
tort their former abnormal profits.
"I understand since I have arrived in
Washington," said Senator Vest, of
Missouri, "that a deficit is upon us;
that the government's expenses exceed
its income, and that a shortage will oc
cur this year, all the way from $40,000,
000 to $90,000,000. I have no opinion
at this time what course it is best to pur
sue. None of us know what state the
treasury is in. It has been hid from
us. We know that things have been
done WItn lhe "eaury books never done
before; that money haq been used and
I funds broken into which SecreUry Foe-
ler had no right to touch. But just how
badly we are in the hole none of us
I know, and cannot hope to before Con-
gress convenes. This, however, I.tn free
to say, whatever the deficit, whether
nine or ten millions, we must meet it

An impressive ceremony was observed
at the raising of Turkey's Hag over the
Sultan's building at the World' Fair last
Thursday. A lamb without blemish,
picked from a flock of 5, OCX) was brought
to the scene, and, after a prayer, one of
the Turks gashed its neck. Another
Turk thrust his hand into the wound
and sprinkled the blood upon the found
ation of the Turkish pavilion. Then
the red flag of the Ottoman Empire was
raised to tne top of the staff. The two
high priests called auxid in Turkish
"God give long life to the Sultan and to
the President of the United SUU."
This was repeated three times by all the
Turks present. A lunch in tle tent of
the Sultan followed.

Washington Letter.
Washington. D. C. Nov., 25, 1S92.
Democratic Senators and Representatives
are already quite numerous in Washing
ton, and of those here at least thn-e-fourths
have expressed themselves as fa
voring an early extra session of the Fifty-third
Confess for the purpose of deal
ing with fiD;iucial and tariff matters.
The reason given in most cases is that it
is a custom of loug standing with Con
gress that about one year should elapse
Iroin the tune anew larirt law isenaiieu
before it goes into effect, in order to give
business circles and manufacturers au
opiiortunity to make preperauona ior
the change that will preveut any iost. ty
reason of reductions made in the duties.
So that even if an extra session be called
in April it will be in the neighborhood of
a year and a half after Mr. Cleveland is
inaugurated before the ieople can begin
to realize anv tienetit from the ieino-
cratic reform of the tariff. Surely that
is long enough for the people to contin
ue to bear the burdens iuitiosed upon
them by the Mckinley law. -
But there is another matter that -is
even more pressing than the tariff the
almost immediate need of the Oovern-
ment for money to meet the enormous
obligations incurred by the Republicans;
and it is not U lieved that the Republican
majority of the Senate will be patriotic
enough to drop their intense partisanship
ami aid in this matter during the pres
ent session of Congress; they don't care
how much trouble the country gets into
after it shall have passed into Democratic
hands. Notwithstanding the continued
assertions of Secretary Foster that there
will lie uo deficit in the Treasury during
the current fiscal year, many prominent
Democrats believe there will be. The
reason for this lielief is that the officials
of this administration can, if so disposed,
withhold uion one or another pretext
the payment of many large sums that
fall due between now and the fourth of
March next, leaving them to le liquida
ted by the Democratic administration,
but not leaving the money to do it with.
Indeed, it is the general Lielief that the
deficit would exist to-day except for this
policy of delay in meeting payments
which has lieen in vogue for two years
or more. In anv event, it cannot te
much longer staved off, and all admit
that it will probably come during the
next fiscal year.
How to meet it is the most pressing
question with which the Democratic ad
ministration and Congress will have to
deal next year. If it can be temjKirari
ly met in some way until the new tantt
can get into working order and the Dem
ocrats get an opportunity to lop off the
extravagant expenses of the Government
and reduce exjienditiires to a Democrat
ic basis of economy everything will
be all right, as the lowered tariff will
certainly add many millions to the cus
toms receipts of the Government. It is
lecause of this knowledge that quite a
numlier of prominent Democrats favor
issuing bonds at a low rate of interest for
the money that will tie absolutely need
ed, instead of increasing auy present tax
or adding a new one. It is a very inter
esting and a very important question
and no fears neetl lie felt that the be
plan, all things considered, will not oe
adopted.
Representative Fitch, chairman of the
House committee which is engaged in
investigating the methods of the notori
ousJohnl. Davenport, Chief U. S. Su
pervisor of elections for New York, wrote
Secretary Koster, early this week, asking
him not to pass or pay any of Daven
port's accounts for exrienses until the
committee ludld examine them. This
brought Daventiort to Washington in
double-quick time. His object is to get
his accounts approved and paid liefore
the committee irets at them, otherwise
he knows they will lie largely cut down
One thing may lie put down as certain
When the first session of the Fifty-thin
Congress adjourns, whether it le extra
or regular, there will be no such office
as U. S. supervisor of elections
The local Democrats, aided by thous
ands from the neighlioring States of
Maryland and Virginia, are to-night enn
ductingthe largest olitical demonstra
tion ever seen in Washington, and the
jam (if people on Pennsylvania aveuue
are wild with enthusiasm and the air full
of brilliant fireworks.
Mr. Cleveland's alleged remarks ex
pressing his disgust for office-seekers,
which were puhlished here a few days
ago, helied many a Repulilican office
holder to enjoy "his Thanksgiving din
ner, by making him feel that he was se
cure in his office. Democrats generally,
who believe that when the rxople or the
country voted ly such an overwhelming
majority for a change they did not mean
merely a change in the Presidency and
in the heads of the departments but a
change all along the line, are loth to le
lieve that Mr. Cleveland ever used the
language attributed to him. m.
The Modern Borgia.
Des Moines, Ia., Novemlier 25'.
Quite a sensation has liceu caused at
Kiverton over a reputed wife-joisoning
case. The modern Borgia is William
Mayhor. Several years ago, while living
in Axtell, Kan., he advertised in the
Kansas City papers for a house keeper,
and Mrs. Krliecke, a handsome widow,
was engaged. Three months later she
became Mrs. Mayhor.
She was Mayhor's fifth wife. On
October 28 Mrs. Majhor No. 5 died very
suddenly. Three former wives of May
hor had died under suspicious circum
stances, and when the Coroner heard of
the death of Mrs. Mayhor No. 5 he de
termined to hold an inquest. The re
sult is that Mayhor is under arrest.
Mahor is worth $75,000.
The Jtdgefthip Contests.
Hakrishuro, Novemlier XO.-By the
death of Judge Connelly, of Scranton,
Governor Pattison will have two vacan
cies on the liench to till by appointment,
one in the Blair county district, where
Judge Dean will retire in a few weeks to
go on the supreme liench, and one in
l-ackawaona county. The Blair county
Democrats are equally divided for Au
gustus I-andis, of Hollidaysburg, and A.
V- Dively, of Altoona. and every day
brings letters and petitions from them to
the Governor, getting forth the claims of
thejr favorites. The fight for the vacan
cy in Scranton is expect! to be just as
lively, as there are several candidates
holding off until after Judge Connelly U
buried.

John Chinaman Ahead.
Washington, November 28. The
Chinaman at present has the best of Un
cle Sam. whose restriction law lias tieen
an utter failure. This law, passed May
5, required that within one year all Chi
nese laborers within the United States
should take out registration papers Lie
fore the collector of internal revenue of
the respective districts and furnish pho
tographs of themselves for purjioses of
identification.
So far only five Chinamen in the
whole United States have complied with
the law and they were residents of Ore
gon. According to census figures there
were itN.-iiO minese in tne i nueu
States on June 1, lS'.H). These figures
are, however, relieved to fall short of the
truth. Wong Ching Foo, secretary of
the Chinese Lilieral Rights League;
claims that they are not fewer than 150,-
tHH) in the country possessing qualifica
tions which should entitle them to the
suffrage. This would make the total
Chinese population double that numlier,
or at least loO.OOO.
The only penalty provided in the law
for failure to comply witu its provisions
is deportation back to China. Taking
the lowest estimate, that given by the
census people (107,500) and the average
cost of shipping each Chinamen from his
present place of residence in the United
States to some port in the Flowery King
dom at $100 a very moderate estimate
the enforcement of the law would in
volve an expenditure of $10,750,000.
The duty of carrying out this little pro
gramme is inijiosed by the statue upon
the Secretary of the Treasury and the
Attorney General, and $50,000 is appro
priated for the purpose.
The additional $10,700,000 for trans
portation purposes "must le paid by the
next Congress, if the law is to be en
forced on May 5 next, for it is made evi
dent that the Chinese now resident in
the United States have not the slightest
intention of attempting to comply with
its provisions. When Congress convenes
the questiou of what further legislation
will lie needed o carry out the objects of
this law will le merged in the general
question of restricting immigration all
around.
Mnnggling on the Increase.
Washington, November, 29. Agent
Tingle, in his reort of the ojierations of
the special agents of the Treasury De
partment during the fiscal year, states
that smuggling of dutiable merchandise
upon the Canadian and Mexican front
iers has largely increased since the pass
age f the tariff act of 18W imposing
duties on all agricultural products.
Horses and cattle, as well as tobacco and
other merchandise, are smuggled from
Mexico. The principal articles of clan
destine importations from Canada are
wool, clothing, live animals, eggs and
opium. The suggestion Ls renewed that
tSe rate of duty on opium lie reduced to
$4 or $5 per imund.
No duty whatever is now collected
upon Canadian opium, although a large
proportion of the product of 13 or 14
factories in British Columbia finds its
way into the United States. There are
a large number of tradesmen in Cana
da who make a speciality of selling
goods to our citizens and delivering them
to purchasers without paying their duty.
The packages, when ready for delivery,
are entrusted to an agent, usually a
sleeping car conductor or porter, who
conceals the goods until the Uirder is
crossed, and then ships them by ex
press to the purchaser.
Iter. Dr. Scott Dead.
Washington, November 30. Rev.
Johu W. Sf.tt, D. D., father-in-law of
President Harrison, "died at the executive
mansion shortly after 4 o'clock last ev

Houses Damaged by a fare Id.
Wii.kensbarre, Pa., Novemlier 28.
At an early hour on Sunday morning
the ground began to settle over the
workings of the ilngcliff colliery at
Avoca, caused by a cave-in that took
place in the mine during the night, do
ing considerable damage to property in
the neighliorhood.
The place where the surface is settled
is known as "Brown's Patch," and to
day it is reported that several acres have
gone down from two to six feet, causing
a few of the mining houses to topple
over, while many others sustained more
or less damages.
The people of Avoca are to-night great
ly alarmed, fearing the settling would
extend to the thickly populated portion
of the town, but experienced miners
who know the surroundings well say
that no further damage is apprehended.
New Digging Machines.
Stibenviij-e, O., November 28. At
New Cumberland Saturday, the John

to their seventy-five miners that their
services were no longer needed, and to
finish their work and get their tools out
by Wednesday next, fhe men declare
that the '.order follows the prospective
eijet'ess of the new clay digging m i
chines apd that machines were intro
duced to punirb the men for last fall's
Strike. These new .niachfneg are des
tined to displace thousands of diggers in
more than one line of mining jn the
three states, Ohio, Pennsylvania, and
West Virginia. It is said that at a com
paratively small first cost, when the ca
pacity of the machine is considered,
these devices can be built iso that one
machine will do the work of from seven
teen to twenty men.
