They vary from par to 25 per cent- and average 02. The imprisonment penalty provided in tiie several tuay reform bills looks like cruel attempt to shut up considera ble of the big Republican majority in this slate. Congressmen Money, of Mis., and 1 1. -ill, of Mo., exchanged eouitesies in a committee room. Money called Hall a liar, and the latter threw an ink well at the former. If President Cleveland were to at tempt to follow all the advice given him he would never do anything, Some body ouce in a while bear patiently the rejection of his advice. The Armeni-iD farmers are entirely without seed, and unless the govern ment, helps there will be no sowing, Ilelief disbursers at Gurun have been arrested, and many persons are dying of hunger. At Iiitlis American relief agents are allowed to distribute. A rich vein of silver has been encoun tered by Njw York and Pennsylvania prospectors of South Canaan, Wayne county, Pa. How extensive the lead is cannot yet be ascertained. There is nuch excitement throughout the coun ty in consequence of the discovir. The Baldwin locomotive works of Philadelphia have just closed another imjortant contract with the R ,ssian government for CO large freight engines, to le completed by July 1. With the completion of this contract the firm will have constructed, since October, 1S05, 1." I engines for theiliussians. The pre vious orders have all leen filled. There is no law under the sun, says the Harmburg Patriot, which makes the adoption of a unit rule by a state con vention. They are not even in honor bound to vote as the state convention dictates instead of as their constituents direct. The unit rule is not binding unless Democracy in this State has suc ceeded by a most oppressive form of au tocracy. Camt.ria county is gratified and high ly honored in the recognition she re ceived by the convention in the appoint ment of that leading Republican, F. II. Rarker, Ks.j., as one of the eight state delegates-at-large -to the national con vention. GoxHh;. Yes, whatever is dispensed to Cam bria county Republicans, is generally reached for by Mr. Iiarker. The honors and emoluments are all his'n. He has a great grasp. The Prohibition national convention, to 1 held at Pittsburg the latter part of next month, will he the largest ever held by that party. This will:be the eighth national convention, the first one hav ing been held in 1S72. That year only four or five states were represented. This year word has been received from every state in the Union, and in nearly every instance the full quota of dele gates will le pr. sent. The Venezuelan commission decided on Friday last to send representatives to the Hague to examine the original Dutch manuscripts in the royal archives bearing upon the boundary question. This will naturally be a work of months, at least; and the understanding preval ent in Washington that the commission will not report until December is, there fore, undoubtedly correct. The country is to be congratulated on this fact. It means the elimination from the presi. dential campaign of the whole wretched Jingo business, and to that extent as sures a square battle on the currency question. The decision of the Attorney General that assessors must be paid by the coun ty commisiieners for enumerating child ren of school age in the different school districts of the state, says the Philadel phia Times, is a construction of the compulsory education law that makes effective every provision in its several sections and disposes of the final otvec- tion to its proper enforcement. The loard of county commissioners that now resist the carrying out of an imperative duty does so at a very great risk, as the attorney general purposes to have the new school law carried out in all its terms, regarding the matter as manda tory. " The steel billets and 9teel rails, says the Engineering ami Mining Journal, are in "combines," which holds the jprioe of rail $7 to $S a ton higher to our loads and consumers than to foreign purchasers. Billets from which wire and manv other forms of merchant steel are rolled and drawn have been ad vanced several dollars a ton. The shov el manufacturers have combined to lim it output and have advanced prices 20 per cent. With combines in explosives, in tools, in rails, in many other import ant articles used by miners and railroads, the cost of mining and delivering in market is largely increased, to the detri ment of the consumer and producer and to the exclusive benefit of the combine. Instead of talking of increasing the tar iff on such ai tides all import duty should at once be removed from every article made by "combines." The Democratic state convention at Allentown on Wednesday, nominated John M. Itraden, of Washington county and Benjamin C. PotU, of IM:iwirr county, as congressmen at larg: W F Harrity, of Philadelphia, Charles A. Pa gan, of PM-hurg, John S Riiline. ol Erie. B F. Myers, of Harris'ourc, Rob ert E. Wriaht. of L-biirli.

The committee on resolutions report ed the platform which after declaring its adherence to the fundamental prin ciples of Democracy adds.- "We are in favor of a firm, unvarying maintenance of the gold standard While we favor the nioet liberal use ol silver consistent with the enforcement of a gold standard, we are alisolutely op posed to the free coinage of silver aud to the compulsory purchase of silver bul lion by the government. We lielieve that the interests of the people demand that the earnings of , trade, agriculture, manufactures and commerce, and especially the wages of labor, should 1 paid in money of the greatest intrinsic value, and of the high est standard adopted by the civilized na tions of the world. We are, therefore, unalterably opposed to all devices and schemes for the debasement of our cur rency and to all evasions and compro mises of a question so closely affecting individual and national credit and hon or. We heartily indorse the administra tion of President Cleveland, and con gratulate the country upon the firmness, wisdom and ability shown by him in all matters afftcting the interests of the country. We especially commend his wise, determined and successful efforts to maintain the national credit, to avert financial and bi S ness disturbances, and to protect the country's honor. The Democracy of Pennsylvania pre sents to the national convention as its unanimous choice for the presidency, the name of Robert E. Pattison, know ing him to be honest, able, unassuming, fearless, a consistent Democrat, and in harmony with the highest purposes of his party. We present him for the nomination to the Democracy of the nation, conti dent that this declaration of piinciples and of our choice for the presidency ex press the sentiments of the united De mocracy of the state, and to the end that the vote and influence of Pennsyl vania may le most effectively heard aud felt, the delegates this day chosen are directed to vote as a unit in all matters entrusted to their charge, said actioa to be determined by the vote of the ma jority of the delegates. The Pennsylvania Republican con vention on Thursday, says the New York JlWW,in elaborate resolutions presented as their candidate for the presidency the notorious embezzler aDd corruptionist, Matthew S. Quay, a man who had not character enough to think of defending it in a court of law when challenged to do so. This man a mere party boss and wire puller at his liest, has been openly ac cused by prominent men of his own par ty of embezzling large sums of money from the state treasury. The accusa tions have been printed and reprinted with the proofs in entirely responsible journals and circulated throughout Pennsylvania. He further affronted public decency by securing the nardon of his lobby partner when the latter was convicted of bribery. He has never made a speech or originated a policy or offered an idea of value to the country. Yet the party of great moral ideas in Pennsylvania has asked that Matt Quay be made president of the United States characterizing him as "one of their fore most leaders, wise in council and brill iant and able in action, at once the type of the American citizen, scholar, soldier and statesman." The Quaystone Re publicans have touched bottom. There is no lower depth. There are unmistakable evidences on every hand that the fallacies and hum bugs of protection are losing their hold on the agricultural mind. Petitions from county and state grangers are still pouring into congress in favor of an ex port bounty on farm products. This widespread movement, which the tariff mongers in congress affect to iVhofp indicates that the great associations of farmers throughout the country have re solved to break forever with protection. Mr. David Lubin, of California, the in defatigable propagandist of the move ment, has shown them that the chief buiden of a protective tariff falls with crushing weight on agriculture. His propositions are that the entire Drodnrt of farm staples in the United States is sold at the prices of the surplus exported to foreign markets, and that the Ameri can farmers must pay the protective taxes on the commodities thev consume An offer of Mr. Lubin of a contribution of $1,000 to the American protective tariff league to disprove these proposi uons still remain unaccepted. The champion of the Grangers has flung uown bis challenge, and the tariff mon gers have ignominiously lied from the neia. If there was anything that Mr. Har rity wanted and did not get at the Allen town convention it was becanse he for got to ask for it and not that he could not have had it for the asking. Everv thing was under his thumb and when not going his way the gag rule was an plied. All efforts to get an expression on the unit rule were suppressed and the delegation will go to Chicago to be ma nipulated for the best interests of the gang that have brought Democracy in Pennsylvania down so low that it will be difficult after the election to find enougl ieii oi me party in Pennsylvania make an assignment. to W asUiitciiiii l.et!tr.

President Cleveland j?s-'iirid the dele gates to tiie national arbitration confer ence which met in Washington tins week, who called on him, fiat he was thoroughly in sympathy with their aim to brinj; about a system of international arbitration of all disputes not affecting the soverigni'y of nations. The unseating of KepiesentativeCobb, of Ala . in favor cf G.iodwjun, the pop ulist who contested the Sent, by the Re publican majority of the house, was a part of the deal through which il is ex pected to carry Alabama this year by a K-puhlieau-popuiist combine "This was so palpable that :t few R --publican mem bers refused to vot? for it, out not enough to defeat it. Tiie danger of -lil ting young men with more egotism than parliamentary knowledge in '. h speak er's chair was exemoiifieit during the debate in this case. Speaker Reed de siring to cotis'iit with some of his boom erg called Representative Barrett, of Mass., to the chair and retired to his privat" room to tenure on i.is chances for the presidential uominatioi-.

"j her'-a-son is an amendment which Mr. Smith wishes to have attached to the naval ap prnpriation bill. This amendment in structs the secretary of the navy to make no contracts for armor plate for the bat tle ships provided for in that oil! unl.ss the pri.-e tc at Iea.-t as low as i-'oo. u ton of 2.U0O pounds. Carnegie is now mak ing Uncle Sam pay .fof-O a ton lor armor plate, but has promised to reduce the price, to prevent the ;:over:iniOi.t under taking to make its own armor. Senator Smith wants to make sure that the re duction is what it should le, and yet there is no injustice in the figures he names as that is the price at which Car negie and his associates havc;taken a Russian contract. It remains to ho ?rpn whether Carnegie's friends in congress can head off that Smith amendment. There has been some excitement in c.orjgress this week on account of a state ment made by Representative Sul.er, of X. Y. to the effect that Walter Dygert, a young American recently imprisoned by the Spanish authorities, had beeo se cretly executed. Mr. Suizer's informa tion came from Cubans in Xew York who get it direct from their friends on the island. Secretary Oiney thinksthere is a mistake about it, as he has the promise of the Spanish authorities that young Dygert would be given his liberty and allowed to leave Cuba If investi gation proves that execution story lo le true Spain would U-lter look out for se rious troubU. m. Foil ml Dead in a Jtarti. Lancaster, April 2o The body of Thomas E. Patton was found in the barn of Peter Reser in Salisbury township last night. The man disappeared from his home on the Reser farm on March 2'J. At tiist his family believed that he had gone to Philadelphia to secure em ployment. His continued absence wor ried them and a search was kept up, which resulted in the finding of his body in the barn. On the day l'atton disappeared a lot of paris green was found in the wood house. It is believed that he took a dose of the poison and then laid down in the barn. TU body was decom posed so badly that it could only be identified by papers and the clothing. Patton was "" years of age, and no mo tive can le given for his suicide. Says Mie killed ller Lov r.

Later she says his conduct toward her became cold and he refused to ful fill his promise to make her his wife. She followed hini to Buffalo and asked him to keep his promise, but he refused to do so. She then secured a revolver, and when he again refused to marry her she shot him and lied from the city. Too Much Koret bought. Athens, Tenn., April 2(".

In the house of commons to-day Sir William Harcourt, iu accordance with notice given by him on April 23, asked thegovernment what, if any arrangements had been made to conclude by arbitration a settlement of the differences lictween the United States and Great Britain in regard to Venezue la.
