of la?t week, causing the death of at

The OsUirn bill, which has just passed
the state senate, provides for the com
pulsory introduction into every public
school in the stateof an outfit of not less
than two hundred and fifty photograph

to provide a fat job, at an estimated cost
of ;:eo,no. The house, which was
captivated by the pretty "Ilird IJook,"
may not fail to 1? duly impressed with
this larger and more voracious bird of

The free pipe line bill passed by the
legislature of l.vSi afforded great relief
to llie individual producers in the oil
country, and its action as a check on
the Standard monopoly was of material
U-nelit. The Marshal pipe line repeal
oiii, mat lias lust passed the house ami
is now Ik fore the senate, does just the
opjiosite.
This is a measure entirely in the in
terest of the Standard monoi-oly, and
was vetoed by (Jovernor Fattison because
it was just that sort of grind and crush
legislation that monody demands. Can
(iovernor Hastings sign it? The inde
pendent oil producers and refiners want
to conduct their business in competitive
markets and in their own way. This
they ,-an do under the present law.

The bill prohibiting the Tearing of re
ligious garls by teachers in the public
schools in the state, says the I'ittsburg
I'uxt, passed second reading in the house
of representatives yesterday (Wednes
day) The debate on it was heated, and
the A 1 A. and its secret oaths and
prescriptive and persecuting tenets were
discussed. There was test vote on the
pen-iltv section, which carried by a vote
of 3S against to 131 in favor. The bill
is what is called a "drive" at a few sis
ters employed in some of the puclic
schools on top of the Allegheny monn
tains, at (Jalliizin and other villages,
where the population is largely Catholic.
Inquiry was made in the debate whether
it did not affect (Quakers, I tankards.
Meunonites. and some other sects of
worthy Christian people who wear a dis
tinctive garb, but the projectors of the
bill were unable to answer. The penal
ty imposee is S'Jo for the first offense,
f lOO for the second, and for the third the
criminal is to be disqualified from
teaching for the period of five years
We suppose imprisonment follows the
non-payment of the fine. The law has
its origin in the despicable secret and
oath-bound society that in a cowardly
way is doing its best to stir up religious
strife and bitterness in order to put mon
ey or offices in the hands of its leaders
and attorneys. While we do not ap
prove of the wearing of any religious
garb in the public schools it is a matter
that could very well have leen left to
the discretion of the local school author
ties. The pretense of its originators of
any particular regard for the welfare of
the schools is unmitigated rot. It is the
outgrowth of a narrow fanaticism and
blind sectariau prejudice that goes to
the melting pot of political gain. There
was no objection to these sisters wearing
their distinctive garb on the battlefields
and the military hospitals of the civil
war, if we recollect aright. Nor is there
now to their appearance on missions of
mercy where pestilence rages.
Representative Uaii.ey, of Texas, is
as good a silver man as Representative
Bryan, of Nebraska, but he declines to
sign the letter addressed to the public,
which Mr. llryan is circulating among
Democratic members, and he gives his
reasons for declining, as follows: "Rry

ic than I want to go. It is his desire to
pronounce solely for free silver If. to 1
and stop. Not a word of tariff, nothiug

any further principles of government
which should guide a party, A partj

Man cannot live by bread alone. Ary

He believes in fusing all the silver forces:
Democratic, Republican and Populist.
I U-lieve in being a Democrat and in
having a party of Democrats. If Popu
lists and Republicans aiming at free sil
ver can act w ith us, I would be among
the first to welcome them. Rut I can'i
surrender my party's faith to gain tem
temporary aid. It might do for the
present, but would waste the party and
wreck the country in the future. I look
on populism as an equal public threat
with Republicanism. Carry Republi
can doctrines to their ultimate working
out and a few men would own all the
property of the country, and the rest
would be beggars. Carry populism to
utmost expression and nobody would

James Hamilton, of Fayette City, had
been working for C. Jutte A Company
at their mines in Washington township
mining coal for the defendant. He al
leges he had been dealing in the store of
R. M. McCu ne .v. Company, where the
amount of his purchases had been
turned in at the oihce of C. Jutte A Co.
and deducted out of his wages on pay
day, under an arrangement between tht
two companies. The plaintiff, after leing
discharged, brought suit to recover the
balance in cash wages due him and also
sought to recover the amount kept out
of his wages through the company's
store, under section 2 of the act of May
20, lS'.n, which reads as follows:
"No assignment of future wages pay
able semi-monthly, under the provision?
of this act shall le valid, nor shall any
agreement be valid tint relieves the
said firms, inviduals. corporations, or
associations from the obligation to pay
semi monthly, and in lawful money of
the United States."
C. T. Stewart, formerly of Montgom
ery county, near Norristown, called on
Mayor Shanaman, of Reading, and re
lated this story: He was a prosierous
farmer S years ago. He was worth $!
000, but wanted more of this world's
goods; sold everything and invested in
a farm in Philips county, Kansas. For
5 years he managed to get along. The
sutisequent 4 years he was wiped out of
every penny he owned. The farm was
mortgaged for every cent it was worth,
and he traded 13 horses for that many
tons of coal. Every farthing gone, he
gradually worked himself eastward, and
reached Reading. The mayor gave him
the amount of bis railroad fare to Nor
ristown and a little addition for food.
He exj.ects to raise enough money
among his Montgomery friends to send
for his wife and three children, whom
he left in the west. The unfortunate
man was an object of sympathy as he
stood before the mayor with tears in his
eyes and so overcome with emotion that
he conld hardly sjeak. He warns Penn
sylvania farmers to remain where they
are aud not be allured by false induce
ments to the desert states of the far west.

being'laid before the senate, he proved
himself equal to the occasion, by order
ing the Sergeant at arms to restore order,
although he must have seen from the
faces of the older senatois that he was
trampling uoou tradition and dignity by
so doing. He even went fu;:her, by re
fusintr to allow business to be resumed
until pefect order was restored, and then
to add force to the object lesson in good
manners that lie was giving to unruly
Senators he directed the sergeant at arms
to insist upon order being .maintained
and to place a sullicient u umber of as

calmly said: -The senator from Mary

prevent the sundry civil appropriation
bill being talked to death.
It will not le positively known until
the Fifty-third congress dies by limita

one or more appropriation bills will force
the calling of an extra session. There is

New stories of tiie reign of Czar Reed

"Who are all those men down there,

Father " Those are the speakers of the

Roy "Who is that great big fat man
in the chair under the American llag."
Father "That, my son, is the House

Queens run to (ilen L'uion. The ice
broke on a llood and there was not suf

a feeling of unrest in this city last night,
but to-day it is thought the jam will not
break on the present llood, as the water
in the rear of the gorge is now falling on
the pool of the dam. At this place the
