ffomlira f rteMML EBEXSBURG, CAMBRIA CO., PA... FRIDAY, - JANUARY 2U, l.r7. A Hazeltos paper says: la the Pennsylvania legislature are to be found one gambler, one baseball umpire, one preacher, eight men who declare they are gentlemen nineteen without occupa tions, twenty-eeven lawyers and one pugilist. Of the members three were convicted of larceny, one was tried for murder and acquited, three have been in insane asylums, while eight have been at Keely cures and four are divorced. At the banquet of the Ohio legisla ture, on Friday night last, Mr. Hanna was called upon to speak to the toast: "Ohio, the mother of presidents How They are Made." The sentiment will grate on the sensibilities of those who think that presidents, like poets, are born, not made. But Mr. Hanna knows that Ohio presidents have to be made, and hand made at that, although a great deal of "machine" work isinvolv ed in the process. There is a considerable surplus of bnt ter produced by the farmers in the state of Pennsylvania. More might be pro duced and sold at a profit if they should pay proper attention to quality and seek with due dilligence the markets that are open to them. Should the State Grange put a little of the energy in its exhibits in making war upon oleomargarine into an effort to introduce onr fine butter in near-by foreign markets the best results might be anticipated. The nest administration intends to change the tariff in order to subsidize the trusts that elected it. The chances that it will proceed at law against the monopolists are not worth taking into consideration. Aside from a bluff or two, it will, do nothing to hamper its friends and proprietors. It will be a great surprise if it does not give the Su gar trust and the other combines all that is demanded. Nothing can be done to rescue the peo ple from the clutches of the plutocrats until the next national election. In the meantime the people will have to grin and bear it. As a result of the visit Saturday of Judge Gordon of the Philadelphia bench and a party of lawyers, .physicians and others to the state hospital for the crim nal insane at Matteawan, N. Y. a bill will shortly be introduced in the legisla ture providing for the erection of a sim ilar institution in Pennsylvania. Judge Gordon says that the bill will be prepar ed at once and introduced at the present session of the legislature in order that the criminal insane of this common wealth may be taken from the peniten tiaries and jails, and properly provided for in an institution to be erected spe cially for them. Statemi xts put forth a few weeks ago, says oe Pittsburg Post, that there would be great destitution and suffermg in Chicago this winter are confirmed by actual conditions now existing in that city. Deaths by exposure and starva tion are reported. The number of the unemployed, even among the skilled workmen, is unprecedently large. "Bread riots" are spoken of as probable. The conditions in some parts of the city are said to be apalling. The Chicago people are liberal and are adopting or ganized measures to meet the distress in the most effective way. There is much suffering in all nothern cities, intensifi ed by the extreme cold weather. The picture presented in yesterday's Pout of the want and privation in Pittsburg, and partciularly on the Southside, should prompt our own citizens to measures of relief. The police authorities report many thousands of people in that part of the city on the verge of starvation. It is probably an exaggerated statement that "half the people of the Southside are starving," as reported by the police inspector of that district, but still it is to be remembered that the police have the best opportunities of learning the facts as they exist. The applications for re lief come from honest and hard-working people who would be the last to ask re lief unless forced to do so by the spui" of extreme necessity. It would be well to extend the scope of our organized char ities and prepare for what may be times of extreme need, with many thousands calling for public aid. The New York Tribune says that at no time within the memory of the present generation has the number ot unem ployed been so great in New York as this winter, and never before has the strain on public and private charity been so severe. It speaks of ' broad cloth destitution," and says that it is not merely the laboiing class who are suffering, but large numbers of others, who may be described as professional men, the clreks, the salesmen, the ar chitects, and the literary men. Speak ing of the vast amount of sympathy de voted to the Sing Sing convicts, who have been deprived of the opportunity of working, and are therefore in danger of insanity, the Tribune says: "It may be questioned whether the first duty of the people of New York is not toward those of their more honest and honor able feilow-citizeis whose enforced idle ness, due to their inability to find em ployment, is driving them to the verge of insanity an insanity caused not so much by the broodicg oyer their own unhappy lot as by the s: ectacle of their wives and little ones literally starving before their eyes." The earliest of the Quay sham reform bills rattled safely through, the senate last week and was making some bead way in the house when Representative Stewart thrust'a knife into it. This was an alleged plan to "invstigate" the state treasury and the auditor general's office The investigation: proposed would havi amounted to nothing, and was simply trick to prevent or postpone a real in Wascinglon Letter. Washington, January 22nd, 1S97. Senator Cameron who has -only a few weeks more of public life and who con siders hinwlf entirely out of politics and who consequently doesn't care whose po litical toes he treads on, is doiug some very plain talking lite his father, the late Sim.n Camerou, he has an expres sive vocabulary about the fliptlop cer tain Republican senators have turned on his Cuban resolution He is especially bitter against John Sherman, who he says assured him before he wa- compell ed" to accept the position of secretary of gate in McKinley's cabinet that he was for his resolution and who has Since then used his iutluence among senators who wish to be solid with McKinley against the resolution so industriously that if the resolution was now brought to a vote it would probably be defeated. A Washington real estate agent said, speaking about John Sherman and how heacquiied some of his wealth: "It may be only a coincidence, but it re minded me of a former transaction of the wily Sherman when I saw that just about the time it become certain that he was to be the next secretary of state he took out a permit for the erection of a block of dwelling houses in E-ist Wash ington. When he became secretary of the treasury under Hayes he built a block of houses in an undesirable sec tion of East Washington and they were all sold 10 employes of the treasury. I cannot say, of course, that Mr. Sher man made those Treasury employes buy undesirable houses at a big price, but you can imagine how it worked when the real estate agent who handled the property approached a treasury employe with a proposition to buy one of these houses, which everybody knew belonged to the secretary of the treasury, and gave him a gentle hint to the effect that the stcertary would not be likely to discharge a clerk who was buying one of his houses. I shall keep my e,e on those houses Mr. Sherman is now having built. I have a curiosity to know whether any of them will be bought by state depart ment employes. Czar Keed is nearer to having an open revolt on his hands than at any period since he became the autocrat of the house. A respectful pe ition signed by 20S members of the house has been pre sented to him asking him tosuspend his arbitrary rule against public building bills and to allow a time to be set for the consideration of 22 of those bills now on the calendar.

Washington, Killed by a Doctor. Columbus. Ga., January 24 The wife of Dr. John C. Hardy, of Wisdom's Store, in Harris county, put up a brave defense against a black burglar during the early hours of Saturday morning Her husband had been called away pro fessionally about 1 o'clock in the morn- log, returning an nour later iu utiu a man doing his best to enter his houf e The burglar broke and ran upon seeing the doctor, but he was not to get away so easily.

McElheny, of Pitts burg, against the "treating" habit," which he will present at Harrisburg The title of this proposed law is: "An act to prohibit any person or persons from paying for or promising to pay for, any spirituous, vinous, malt or brewed liquor, or any admixture that was, or is to be supplied, furnished or delivered to or for the use of any other persen or per sons." and it applies to barkeepers fur nishing such drinks as well as consumers buying. It is further provided that it be un lawful for any person to pay for any food "of whatever kind, with which 6uch liquor is or or may be supplied or given away, for the use of any other percon."

There is no rascal more dangerous than one work ing under the guise of a reformer. Is North Dakota, Monday, the ther mometer registered SO below zero, and 30 was the lowest at Minneapolis, while at Quincy, 111, the Mississippi river is frozen so solidly that teams cross on the ice. In Texas the cattle are freezing to death, and in Lexington, Ky., a negro woman met a like fate. Her two little children were discovered in time to save their lives. Another dispatch from Bismarck, N. D., states that the storm was the worst on record. There is much suffering among farmers and oth ers exposed to the storm's fury and many have perished The loss of cuttle on the ranches will be frightful. It is more vital to the public, says the Philadelphia Ijethjer, to check the en croachments and oppression of monop oly than to lay a tax, imposed incident ally or deliberately, to benefit the com bination of American sugar refiners, What scandal there was in the passage of the present revenue act was concen trated around and about the sugar schedule. The people will demand a rigid ac counting of congress, and with respect to tariff legislation they will insist that no tax shall be levied to foster trusts or promote monopolies. One safe and cer tain rule for congress to observe is that of putting upon the free list every man ufactured product, foreign competition with which is hindered by duties. The legislators are with us again, says the Harrisburg Patriot. But they have no thought of getting down to work They are here as a matter of form. The most of them are here to oblige Senator Quay. Their constituencies have not been thought of. The legislators will not remain at the capital this week. The committees are not yet fixed. Those who are to be hon ored or rewarded are numerous and many of them bard tcsatiffy. It will take some time to drive certain big pegs into email boles and to fill up big holes into which email pegs have dropped. Further, a great deal of "reform" has been promis ed and each committee must be so care fully arranged that it will be barely pos sible for any of these pledgee to be kept. There is now every likelihood of a long session. It may also Lecome a frery interesting one. or ment of not more than six months not less than one month or both. Representative McElheny stated that he had long considered the habit of treating, as a great evil and thinks it should be stopped. Eves the exports of American wool and woolens are beginning to look up under the present tariff. During the eleven months ended November 30. 1S0G, the exports of wool amounted in value to 1027,372 a gain of nearly 50 per cent, over the exports during the corresponding months in 1S95. In the eleven months of 1S9G tue exports of manufactures of woolens amounted in value to IS7G.124, against $034,000 during the corresponding period in 1S05. This, it is true, is only a begin ning; yet it will compare favorably with the beginnings of exports of American leather and itg manufactures after hides had been put on the free iist. But there is no reasou to doubt that if the tariff shculd be let alone there would be a great expansion of the export trade in wool and woolens in a few years. Is it the fear that wool, like hides, would be lie the assertions of the protectionists which causes so much haste to tinker with the tarff? tiipr mav be a verv lively row. JUh members almost two-thirds of the house, can easily uncrown the Czar, if so disposed.

It is to-day stronger and mere compact, more ag gressive and buoyant than any defeated party ever was before. ithout mtimi dation. coercion, or corruption a vast majority of the voters of this country to day aie iu accord with it. Having di vorced itself from the present adminis tration, it is building near the affections and the interests of the masses. The Democratic partv will continue its ag gressive fight for both gold and silver as legal tender money and against siec-ial privileges to trusts, combiues aud cor Derations. Those who failed to act with us in the last election will most of them return to the party. Many have al readv done so. No concessions ia prin ciples'or policies will be made, thougu, to gain the support of these. Shorn of their power of patronage aud disciedit ed as loyal Democrats these who do not return will not be potential for evil in the future.
