Kkikksfntativk IIoi.mas. has prepar-
a resolution which he will submit to
the House ilcelarini: it to be thn policy
of the Unit.nl States to conclude a treaty
with Hawaii by which this country will
exercise a protectorate over the islands.

riht to withhold the pension of Jiule
Long, of Michigan, and has accordingly
ordered that the suspension of his pen

On Wednesday at Ifarrisburg, Henry
F. Morrow, of Delaware county, was
nominated for congressman at large by
the state Prohibition convention. The
convention was attended by about sixty
delegates, including five or six women.
The next state convention will be held
at Williamsport in June.
Til k last day for filing certificates of
nomination with the county commis
sioners is January January I'.O is
the last day for filing nomination pajxrs.
The election will be held February L'O,
anil eighteen days prior to that is the
last day to tile objections to the nomin
ation pa-rs or certificates.
Nkw Ji icskv is a small state but it is
big enough t o have two senates, each
claiming to be the properly organ i.ed
body. The Democrats claim that they
have the regularly organized senate,
while the Republicans make the1 same
laim. The Siupreme court will likely be
called upon to settle the dispute.
Thk extra session of the Colorado
legislature, called byCovernor W'aite to
consider his Mexican silver coinage
scheme and inaugurate public improve
ments to furnish work for the unem
ployed, met at Denver on Wednesday.
From present indications the session
will ! a very short one, and the govern
or's suggestions will receive little or no
consideration.
Tiihek years' experience of the Mc
Kinley Republican high tariff bill has
resulted in general business depression
and in wreck and ruin to manufactur
ing and commercial interests. This re
sult has fully justified the Democratic
opposition to that measure anil the d
mand for its repeal which found expres
sion in the overwhelming Democratic
victory of 1 lt nim niic 1 'in! a hi.
SrKAK l.li Ckisp Saturday caused war
rants to be issued for the arrest of every
nu mber of Congress who has not yet
been present at roll call since the open
ing of congress la.-t YVt thii stlay morning.
A doen able bodied deputies were dis
patched in every direction Saturday
veiling, armed with the wairants and
the power to imprison every member
who refused to return with them to the
capital. There were lit absentees when
the speaker decided upon this action
That he did the proper thing wili go
without dispute.
Kn-KKsl-ATXTIVK Look Wool , of New
York, has introductil in thelloii.-e a
bill for the restriction of immigration
and to amend the contract labor laws.
It proviili s against the daily coming in
to the I'tiited States of the citizens of
Canada and Mexico to perform labor in
this country. It compels American v s
sels pK ing on the great lakes to employ
only American citizens. Aliens perform
ing work contrary to the provisions of
the bill are to be deported, and in case
they return to this country they are to
lie deemed guilty of a misdemeanor and
heavily lined.
Lvkky consideration of political hon
or, fidelity and expediency demands that
the pledges upon which that victory was
won shall le faithfully and fully kept,
and that the liemocratie congress shall
revise the tariff by promptly passing the
Wilson bill reported by the ways and
means committee; to the end that the
raw materials necessary to American in
dustries shall be admitted free of duty:
that tariff taxi s shall be reduced on the
necessaries of life, and that import duties-shall
be distributed with a view of
lightening the burdens of many instead
of protecting the interests of a favored
few. Ih iniM'nitit' I t'tf"f ht .
A srniAi. from Lock Haven says:
Judge Mayer has rendered an opin
ion concerning liquor license fees
which is of interest all over the state.
The city Treasurer of Lock Haven said
that all the lienor license fees were paid
to the county treasurer, who got a large
commission for handling the money,
and he asked the court to stop the pra -tice.
The judge decided that only the
liquor license money that la-longs to the
county shall be paid to the county treas
urer, and what belongs to the city shall
be paid directly to the city treasurer.
This opinion deprives the county treas
urer of a snug source of revenue, and
transfers it to the city treasurer.
TllKHK were Ho, loll locomotives en
gaged in hauling passengers ami freight
over the railways of this country last
year, N,N-s in hauling passengar trains
ulotie. To trausMirt the passenger tratlic
of the country L's,s7." cars were in ojkt
alion. while for the conveyance of
freight nearly a million cars were re

facts is had in considering that the
locomotives, placed end to end, would
make a train Ho 7 miles long, while the
freight cars, marsh led on a single track,
would make u train T.OJS miles long,
that is, they would make a single train

Thk Pittsburg Isotlrr, a Republican
paper that looks at things as they appear
instead of trying to color them for the
benefit of the calamity howlers, has this
to say about the oiigin of the p'-esent
depressed condition of business:
"The I.fiiihr, while not in sympathy
with the Democratic tariff policy, has
never joined in the declaration almost
unanimously made by high tariff organs
that the panic of the present year was
caused by the victory of the Democrats
in the national election. We have en
deavored on the other hand to make it
clear to our readers that the financial
troubles originated iu events occurring
before e'ther of the olitical parties had
nominated candidates; that they were
not confined to tlie United States, but
extended over ill civilized countries, and
that they could not he stamped out by
mere legislation, except in so far as the
repeal of the unwise silver purchase law
might aid in restoring confidence.
"A timely corroboration of our view
of the matter is furnished by the Pall
Mall inzttf ill .a review of tin; year's
trade in (ireat Iiritaiu compiled from
ollicial returns. This report shows that
the tribulations of the I'nited States have
been fully equaled on the other side of
the Atlantic, and that our chief coin
peditor in the markets of the world, in
stead of profiting in proportion to the
losses here, has had enormous losses of
its own to bear. ISritish imports for
ls.i;j declined nearly $100,000,000 as
compared with ls'.i, and the exports
declined over ..', (too. 000.
"An enormous falling-off occurred in
the coal and textile trades and kindred
industries suffered correspondingly.
Tin- coal strike added much to (Ireat
Rritian's embarrassment, but only in an
incidental way. The. actual cause was
the same that led to the ditliculties
throughout the rest of the world the
periodic stagnation of trade which seems
like an epidemic of smallpox or cholera.
"It is proper that the Democratic
party should he leld liable for its sins,
but the precipitation of the panic of "'.:
is certainly not one of them."
Tiik detimders of the McKinley law,
says the New York 'tri1, add to their
tariff scare buga boos an "estimate"
that the Wilson bill would cut down the
revenues $7 J.OOO.OOO.
This is an obvious and ignorant ex
aggeration. No man can tell what the
customs collections would be under
stimulated importations ami increased
pnrcliiising capacity among our people.
When the Walker tariff was passed in
ls; Daniel .Webster proclaimed that'll
serious falling off in the government's
revenue would result. Daniel was not a
prophet. The collections for the first
full year of the Walker tariff exceeded
those of the last full year of the protec
tive tariff of lspj by over So. 0O0.OOO.
And at the toil often years the reve
nues had increased from :?:.V.,71l!.000
to t.OOO.CIIO, .,,! a snip his was crea
ted w hich led to the passage of a bill in
ls"7 by a Republican IIo.isc will Tom
Ret d please take notice? to reduce the
tariff, though the average duty was but
little more than half what it now is.
It is iindoiititedly true that the exten
sion of the free list in the interest of our
manufacturers. w:-ge earners and con
sumers will leslilt ill a loss of revenue,
P.ut the Democratic party can afford to
contrast its policy of r dticing revenues
by abating tavs with the Republican
policx of mini ing them by increasing
taxes. It is better to sacrifice revenue
hyrclieMug the people of burdensome
taxes than to turn a surplus into a de
ficiency by reckless extravagance as the
Republicans did.

in a letter to the Cufhufir Cilizi ii. made
public on Wednesday dc Inn s the A. P.
A. a niciiance to the republic. Mr.
Vilas's letter sa s:
"To enter a Secret political society,
to sacrifice one's political freedom to
the behest of its authorities, unknown
to the laws, means the citizen's surren
der of the glory of manhood by self
enslavement. F.ven if done with good
purpose, the method is debasing and de
grading. It is the way of a c riminal in
indiv idiial conduct. In political affairs
it seeks to strike an unseen blow which
shall do injury to one's fellow men. It
is the old method of iniquity and tyran
ny in governments, and in the ex-ii-ence
of repnbiii s has alwas been char,
actcristic of plots against the rights of a
particular class defined by race, by re
ligion or some other line that ju-tice
and humanity could not condemn''
Mr. Vilas in conclusion says that the
movement is a blow at religious liU-rty,
and that every citizen should lxi opjosed
to its principles.
Thk South Fork Courier, the leading
Republican pajter in this county, out
side of Johnstown, in its issue of Friday
last, after publishing an article taken
from the Fkkkman of last week relative
to th-recent apjMiintments made in the
commissioners' otlice, proceeds to read
Commissioner Lloyd out of the party.
The Ctwrii r, among things wise and
otherw ise, says:
"Mr. Lloyd has turned a trator to his
friends who gave him such a handsome
vote in the convention that nominated
him and it is (plite probable that he too
will have to look for a position outside
of the court house when his present
term expires."
The iurir is not the only Republi

missioner Lloyd's political hide, but ns
Mr. Lloyd is "loaded for bar" and got
the drop on them, they will sing in good

that may come their way. It is not

Washington D. C. Jan. f:h, ls-ij
Chairman Wilson is not receiving the
support he d.-serves from the Democratic
membersof the House. He had worked
himself into a stale bordering on physi
cal exhaustion in order that the tariff
bill might Ik- called up as soon as the
House met on Wednesday, and his dis
appointment can only lie imagined when
ha saw that the tariff bill ,.uld not
taken up on that day because of the ab
sence of a i'.lorum of Democrats, it be
ing the policy of tlu- Republicans not to
aliow the bill to !- con-idered without a
iiorum, which they wiil refuse to a.-si-t
in making. I nasmuch a.-every Democra
tic mem U-r know the imp n ta nee of a pio
rum of their ow n members present this
absenteeism is inexcusable The whole
country is demanding prompt action on
the tariff, at the very opening of the
session a day is throw n away.
The tariff programme as mapped out
br chairman Wilson was live liavs for
general debate, eight dav s with evening
sessions fi ir di.-eus-ioii under the live
minute rule, dining which the internal
revenue amendments decided upon this
week the l' per cent tax up- n all in
conies of ?' I , '(til ami over: the increase
in the tax on cigarette.- to si fo per
lOOO; the increase in the lax on whiskey
to tfl.l toper gallon, am! the tax of -J cents
per pack on playing card. are to In
adopted, and Hie final vote to he taken
on the 17, of January; hut it will not be
possible to ca i ry out this or any other
programme, if a I ti-ne u ratic ipi-ii um
cannot be kept hen-all tin- time; already
the day of the final vote has been
changed to January . This absentee
ism is more the result of the big Demo
cratic majority than indifference. Kach
member w ho stays away probably thinks
there will be a Democratic i U"i um w ith
out him, but so many slay away that
there isn't.
The investigation of the relations of
this government with Hawaii is being
pushed by the subcommittee of the
senate committee on foreign relations.
Allot' the v.itiit.ts heard up to this
time have Ih-cii g ntiemen w ho took an
active part iu the annexation movement
and the formation of the provisional
government of Hawaii: coiisi-ipicnlly the
testimony has been all of one kind. Al
thougn the proceedings an- supposed to
be secret, the nature o the te.-tiinony
taken become known almost as soon as
it would if the hearings were public.
Considerable comment not favorable to
ex-Minister Stevens has been indulged in
this wick. Senator I'rye had reported
the health of Mr. Stevens to be -o pie
carious that it might prevent his com
ing to Washington totistiiy before the
committee, yet the newspapers all con
tained account.- of his having traveled
from his home in Maine t Rhode Island
in order to deliver a speech on Hawaii
at a club bainUet. Now the iiiiii.n is
bcing asked, w hy his health permits him
to attend club banquets and sit up two
thirds of a night to make a set speech, it
should prevent his coming o the mild
climate of W ashington and giving the
committee a few hours of his time dur
ing the day? Perhaps the oath which
the com mittee ai ! i i i n . isters to its wit m .-s
es may have something to do with tin
reluctance of Mr. ."-tewns. A man
doesn't ha ve (o sw e i r to statements made
in a bain-.iet speech.

Coumuia, Pa., Jan. !. The arrest
here of John Alexander upon the charge
of violating a law ed the state in practic
ing medicine without tie-im: a registered
phy-ician has brought out a tale of such
ignorance a:;d supersthi n as is not
oft. -n ficmd among negroes
above Mason and Dixon's line. Some
time ago James Wa.ers, a negro, was
taken ill. He consulted Alexander, who
is a "yiwidiKi" doctor, ami was told that
he was U-witcbciI and had lieen ju.-oned.
Alexander told Waters to look in three
glass balls, and the crodu'oiis negro de
clareil that he saw faces ? ll -cteil in two
of them. Alexander then gave him two
nails and told him to drive onein the
ceiling of his house and put the other
in the house door so that it would fail
w hen anyone entered. The jwrsoti open
ing 'he door allowing the nail to fall
would Ik- tiie- one who had l-w:tched
him. On the fall e.f the nail Waters
was to strike the nail in the ceiling three
times and the spell would Ik- raised.
Whether Waters followed out the in
structioiis of the "doctor" is not known
for he died shortly afterwards ami his
mother, believing that he had died from
neglect and not consulting a regular
physician, had Alexander arrested.
