The United States supreme court, in
an opinion by Justice Harlan, on Mon
d iy held in effect that the Union Pacific
Railroad company had no ri;rht to make
a lease practically giving the Western)
Union Telegraph company an exclusive
risht to maintain telegraph lines along
the route of the railroad company. The
case came here from Nebraska, and
the court affirms the judgment of the
circuit court for the Nebraska district.
Jatax is described as a laud without
the domestic animals. It is this lack
which strikes the stranger so forcibly in
looking upon Japanese landscapes.
There are no cows. The Japanese neith
er drink milk nor eat meat. There are
but few horses, and theso are imported
mainly for the use of foreigners. The
freight cars in the city streetsare pushed
and pulled by coolies, and the pleasure
carriages are drawn by men. There are
but few dogs, and these are neiti er used
a.i watch dogs, beasts of burden nor in
hunting, except by foreigners.
nit total vote i l ennsyivaoia gives
an explanation of the Republican plu
rality of 1 5,000. Compared with 1S'.'2
the Democratic stay at homes number
170,000 this year. The Republican vote
to far frt in incrc ar-ing is tiO.OOU behind
that of 1'.)2. Compared evtn with last
year the Democrats fall bc-hiud 118,000
and the Republicans oO.OoO. Consid
ering the ascendancy of Boss luay
in their paity it is much to the dis
credit of the Republicans of l'ennsI
vanhtthat they premitted the Democtrats
so greatly to surpass them in disgust
and apathy.
Co.Mri.AixT was made that Farmer
Reed, of North Kewickely township, Al-
legheny county, had four cows that were
leiDg allowed to slowly starve to death
An investigation showed that the cows
had lecn attac ked with a disease that
caused heir teeth to f ill out and their
milk" to dry up. Iustoad of killing
them, he turned them out to shift for
themselves. Having no teeth, they
could not eat and were starving. Tne
cows of other farmers iu the vicinity
were attacked with the same disease,
but the owners humanely killed them
when their teeth fell cut.
It appears that the world has been do
ing injustice to the crow, and that he is
really the Jriend rather than the enemy
of the farmers. That is to say such is
the conclusion of a special investigation
made by the department of agriculture
at Washirgton. Nearly l.OCt) stomachs
of the bird were examined, ana it was
found that corn formed only twenty five
per cent, of the food of adult crows, and
that little cultivated fruit was eaten by
them. On the other hand, injurious
insects form over twenty six per cent, of
the entire food of crows and they also
destroy rabbits, mice and other jests of
that sort.
The apple crop, according to the last
estimate, is the largest of recent years
The Orange Judd Farmer places it a
Oo.Oi'O.OtV barrels, which is 000,000
in excess of the great ciop of 101) and
larger than last year's big crip in about
the same proportion. While such i
bountiful crop has been raised this year
however, it is very unevenly dis
tributed. Kast of the Allegheny moun
tains Uiere is less man au average crop
and in New F.Dgland the re is a great de
f.cieney, In New York aud IVnnsyi
vania it is one third larger, and in Ohio
and Illinois there is a double crop, while
Jlissouri raises three times as many ar
pies as it did in lSbO.
At the quarterly conicjence held in
Pittsburg last week between represeuta
fives of the Amalgamated Association of
Iron and Steel workers, and John Jar
rett, secretary of the Iron aud Sheet
Steed Manufacturers' Association, it was
discovered that according to the provi
sions of the sliding wage scale, the sell
ing prices of finished materials during
the past ninety dins justified an ad
vance of two percent, in the wage-s of
employes in this department of manu
fi-eture. The wages of 12,000 working
meu are advanced and the increase in
volves every sheet ircn ni.i in the coun-
try. A conference is now on betweeu
the iron puddlers and manufacturers of
the Mahoning valley. The indication
are; that the wages of 10,000 puddlers
and finishers in the Mahouiug and
Shenango valleys wilt be advanced from
$4 25 to $4 50 ier ton.
The next congress will be Republican,
and it must grapple with if,jes that in
ail probabi ity will rend the party into
fragments, as was the case in 1S8'. and
which resulted in the defeat of the so
called G. O. P, by nearly half a million
uajority in 1813.
There was a hue and a cry made
iost the Democratic congress in 1S3,
greater part of which criticisms were
just, but there was no Republican
jle with which to contrast it, and the
crucial test of their power will begin on
the first Monday of December, when
there will he a Republican house by
more than two-thirds majority.
It will be Democracy's turn next.
Mark well, that in its 'resumed strength
the Republican organization is but rest
ing on smouldering powers of disinte
gration. that will make it hotter before
the lines of next year's struggle shall be
flrawn.

tiie PiiiUd'-;phi:i J.'ti-or.f, are more in

It Ins i eea .suggest! that the admin
istration's po!i y with regard to the pay
mem of pens! -ins "n is m ole the party
unpopular w.'h the soldiers. F!ut the
administration has faithfully carried out
the pension laws, and in respect of the
examination and adjustment of pension
claims its record of efficiency has not
ieen surpassed. The soldiers have no
uew cause or oj-irrel with Democracy.
The complete answer to the as-ertion
that the parly ha? lost votes because of
its tariff policy is the returning activity
and prosperity of the manufacturing
interests in Penusvlvania. Those Dem
ocrats who have opposed the tariff policy
of the party appear to have lost its con
tidence in all parts of the country. Be
sides, the tariff was not in issue at the
receut election in this state.
Un the financial question there was
no ground whatever for preferring the
Republican tr-suion before that of the
Democracy. 15ith parties in Tennsyl
vania favor sound money. The friends
of free silver e-oiuage iu both parties are
in a beggarly minority.
If there be antipathy toward President
Cleveland it is a reilected antipathy be
gotten of distrust and dislike for a nar
row and incompetent leadership, the
chosen medium through which the fed
eral power has dealt with Pennsylvania
affairs.
But there is no use to cry over spilt
milk, nor to pretend that the milk has
not been spilled. The Democrats of
Pennsylvania are tired of excuses.
What is now most important is to make
a new beginning. The Democracy of
Pennsylvania should be reorganized, not
from tiie top downward, but from the
bottom upward, so that when the task
shall have been completed the party may
possess itself. The time to begin is at
the ensuing primaries. The selection of
au independent representative delega
tion to the next Democratic national
convention should be the first move on
the chessboard.
The Republican papers are making
much ado over aa address of Ambassa
dor Bayard recen ly delivered in Scot
land. The following extract is what is
troubling tne-m land it has the right
ring:
"Iu my own country I have witnessed
tiie insatiable growth of a form of soci
alism styled protection, which has done
more to corrupt public life, to banish
nien ef independent mind from pub
lic councils and to lower the tone of
national representation than any other
-vngle cause.
Protection, oow controlling the sov
ereign power of taxation, has been ei
eited from its function of creating rev
enue to support the government into an
gine for sctfish profit, allied with com
binations called trusts. It thus sapped
'he popular conscience by giving cor
rupting liirg-e.-s"ss to special classes, and
throws legislation into the political
market, where joblers and chaffercrs
'.ake the place of statesmen.
Its allied beneficiaries and combines
are called "trusts," and gradually the
commercial marine of the United States
has disappeard, the few vessels lately
built being an exception and proving
the rule, as they were only built by
making a breach in the general tariff
aud navigation laws."
nit ia.-i legislature passed a new
! trespass law which will be of interest to
T- , . , - , .
gunners, now that the season for rabbits
is open. Under the eld law the small
est penalty for trespassiug was '5,
r ut uuder the act of assembly the pen
alty imposed cannot be more than the
damages done. There is an idea pre
valent that hunters cannot be arrested
when there are no notices posted or pub
lished forbidding trespassing on individ
ual property. This is a mistaken idea
suit can be brought against hunters
even if there are no notices, although
recovery can only be had for the actual
amount of damages. Farmers are be
ginuing to object very strongly to the
large number of men with their dogs,
who roam over their properties in the
pun-uu. oi game, claiming that many
fences are broken down, or opened to
pass through and never closed, aud it is
also alleged that many have uo scruples
against bagging turkeys and chickens,
when no one is about. The part of the
new trespass law affecting gunners sajs
"that anyone who shall trample or in
any way injure any grass or grain, shall
pay a penalty not exceeding j-'oOfor each
offense.

the revenues from customs without dis
turbing buisness by tariff agitation they
: i t - . , . . . .
wu uave oniy 10 cnange tne 41) per
cent, ad valorem duty on raw sugar to
a specific duty of one cent a pound.
This would increase the annual revenue
not less than $10,000,000 without in
creasing in the slightest degree the cost
of sugar to American consumers. In
the Fifty-third congress the Republicans
truthfully asserted that the duty on su
gar should be secified in order to pro
tect the public revenues from foreign
undervaluations. They have now an
opportunity to make good their profes
sions. But, if introduced into congress,
the proposition to change the sugar duty
should be passed, and not made a weap
on to blackmail the sugar trust. A
specific duty as proposed on sugar would
take the sugar trust permanently out of
the Washington lobby.
Ki.j.AiiETH Kelly, the twenty five-

Washington, D. C, Nov , 10, 18'.'5.
Doe-S President Cleveland desire to lie
renominated ? That is about the first
ejuystiou asked by every Democrat w ho
has arrived in Washington since it was
puh'.isiit d that Yu-e President Stevenson
had said that Mr. Cleveland would I
at:ain nominated if he wished to le. It
is probably 1 cause Mr. Stevenson ha
been regarded by many Democrats as a
pHihiMe candidate for the nomination
himself that his opinion has attracted
such wide attention. Mr. Stevenson en
joys the reputation of leing au unusual
ly schrewd oliserver of events in the
political world, and, although he has
never hail an oimmi rupture with the ad
ministration, it is known that he has
differed with it in a number of notable
instances It is because Demcx'rats
know these things that they regard his
words as significant, aoel are asking
whether Mr. Cleveland wants to run
again. It can be state-d upon the high
est authority that he does not; but ihe
Dumkr ef Democrats who lK?iieve that
he will accept if the convention nomi
nates him is much larger to day than it
was before the recent tactions.
Democratic senators are doing very
little talking for publication concerning
which party will control the senate at
the se-ssien of congress now only a little
more than two weeks off. They have
possession of the control of the commit
tees and they propose t retain it until
relieved of that duty by a majority of
the senate.
Men who profess to be able to name
the next Republican presidential ticket
can be found on every street corner, but
this week a man turned up in Washing
ton who said he was willing to bet a
little money he did not say how much
that the ticket would be Harrison, of
Indiana, and Bradley, of Kentucky.
The name of this reckless prophet is An
son B. Price, and he says his home ad
dress is Bloomington, Illinois. If Dem
ocrats have any influence with the Re
publican convention Mr. l'rice will be
right as to Harrison.
Nobody would Ih? surprised if the story
placing Secretary Carlisle in the vacant
seat in the supreme court turns out to be
true. President Cleveland thought eu
ough of Secretary Carlisle as long ago as
duriug his first administration to make
him a justice the chief justice, iu fact
of tne supreme court, and would have
done so had not a gossiping tongue re-
teated wheie he would be sure to hear
of a bit ef scandal e-onntcted with a
night's episode iu the private life of Mr.
Carlisle. Since that the uresident's ad
miration has be'en increased for Secre
tary Carlisle in numerous ways, not the
least of which was his unejualified en
dorsement of the president's financial
position, and it would not be strange if
he carried out the iutention he first had,
provided, of course, that Secretary Car
lisle desires it.
Col. Henry Clav Tompkins, chairman
of the Alabama state Demociatic com
mittee, who is now in Washington, cer
tainly knows the condition of the party
in his state. He savs: "There is no
iner of a split in the party iu our state
over the silver issue or any other issue.
Our ieople may differ on economic sub
jects, but when they are brought face to
tace with a grave problem involving the
surrender of our government to an in
ferior element, then ali the factions will
uuite, and bury their financial differ
ence. tien we meet in state conven
tion everything will be settled. The
national convention will settle the silver
juestion, and whatever the platform is
every true Democrat will stand there
on."
It would be interesting to know
whether any politics wns talked when
President Cleveland went to New York
to attend ttie marriage ef ex Secretary
Whitney's daughter. It was the first
time the president and the ex-secretary
or the navy had met for several years,
a un mere was mucn mey migtit nave
said to each other that would have
interested Democrats everywhere. Nc

Ke Passed Counterleit Money.
Washington, D. C, Nov. 16 A tele
gram from Boston this afternoon to the
chief of the secret service aunouuees the
arrest there to-day of Win. Dickerman.
and his detention under $2,500 bond to
await examination before the grand
jury.
Dickernian's career has been a curious
one. He was arrested some time ago-
none iue preseui administration came
into power charged with a violation of
the postal laws, but be was subsequently
given a permit to carry counterfeit
money, being engaged iu the business of
publishing a counterfeit detector.
Last August he was found at Louis
ville, Ky., carrying more counterfeit
mouy than the permit allowed, and the
money and permit were taken from
him.
Ten days ago he was detected in Phil
adelphia with counterfeit money, but as
no attempt to pass the same could be
proven, he was not placed under arrest.
It appears from the dispatch received
to-day, that he was caught in Boston at
tempting to pass spurious money. In
spector Bagg, who made the arrest, first
had two pitched battles with him.

New York, November 17. By the
game laws of the state of New York the
deer on Long Island are assured of life,
except for a very few days on alternate
years. On this protection they have
grown so bold that they wander into the
farmers' front yards and devour their
ornamental bushes, and it is claimed
have gone so far as to pursue human
beinas.
Eric Evers, a farmer of Uniondale,
was recently pursued by a stag down a
roadway. The stag caught and hurled
him into a gully, where his body fitted
tight, so that the stag could not gore him,
except by standing on its head. It could
trample him, however and did it a score
of time-s. Then it hauled him out with
its antlers, and once he was in the road
way, what had come before was child's
play. After being prodded and ripped
and jabbed by the big antlers. Evers
lost consciousness. He would have been
killed had not some farm hands with
pitchforks come upon the scene. With
reat difficulty they drove off the Stag.
Evers is badly hurt, but may recover.
