THE CENTRE REPORTER.

Under the new rules governing the
Democratic organization in this state,
Center county will have four delegates in
future state conventions—one delegate
for every 1000 democratic votes cast for
governor. Pattison’s vote in Centre Co.
was 4178. Under the new rule the num-
ber of delegates in the Democratic state
convention will be 359, or 108 more than
heretofore. In our opinion it makes the
convention unwieldy.

Dukes, the man who shot Nutt at Un-
iontown, appeared at Harrisburg on 11,
and at once consulted with Speaker
Faunce, of the House, whether there was
anything to bar him from taking the oath
and his seat as a member. The Speaker
told him he thought not and advised
Dukes to take the matter into considera-
tion for himself,

At Reading, Pa., two brothers were ar-

In Baltimore, the other day, a German,
Joseph Miche, shoved off this mortal coil
in guite a merry mood. His body was
found with a bullet wound in the right
temple. In his right hand was a revolver
and in his left a glassand a wine bottle
was on the ground near by. On his per-
son was found a paper with the following
writing in German: “As I have lived,
so have died—always merry—my last
glass is tendered to my friends.”

The Senate on 9th, passed the presi-
dential succession bill. An amendment
offered by Mr. Morgan, providing that
the cabinet officer becoming acting pres-
ident shall act only until a president is
elected or the vacancy otherwise filled,
was agreed to, as was also one offered by
Mr. Ingalls, providing that it shall be
the duty of the acting president to con-
vene congress by proclamation, giving
twenty days’ notice of the time of meet-
ing. The bill was then passed—Ayes 40,
noes 13. The bill provides that in case
of the removal, death resignation or ina-
bility of both the president and vice
president the secretary of state shall act
as president; and if there be no secretary
of state the secretary of the treasury
shall so act, the vacancy always to be
filled by the cabinet officer next in rank
down to the secretary of the navy.

In the state senate the Independents
were severely snubbed by the stalwarts.
The Patriot says the action of Senators
teyburn, Adams et. al, in connection
with the attempted confirmation of Phil-
ip C. Garrett, has caused a diversity of
comment. Senator Stewart is righteous-
ly indignant at the insult offered the in-
dependent republicans, in the rejection
of this distinguished member of the com-
mittee of one hundred. He says that in
retaliation he will vote against the con-
firmation of all notaries public, whom he
may know voted against him for govern.
or. Where there is any doubt as to the
action of these appointees he will call up
on Senator Cooper for the necessary in-
formation. Senator Herr, who has be-
come quite a reformer, is thoroughly dis
gusted with the rejection of Mr. Garrett
as a member of the board of public char-
ities and says such a course is well calcu.
lated to “bust” the republican party,

Pattison’s inauguration has not cost
the state one cent. Score one for
sensible reform.
Cooper, stalwart, and late chairman of
Beaver's state committee, wants a law
passed fining every man who does not

The House has put itself against the

The Clearfield Bituminous Coal Come
pany was organized, on 10, in Clearfield,
Pa. with a capital of $5,000,000, Wm, A.
A SHARP LEGISTATOR.
The reader of the RerorTer will re-
remember that for the last four or five
years we have been calling attention to
the money drawn by the members of
the Senate and House for postage and
stationery, $100, who then drew their
stationery besides and most of them
used the postage stamps for paying in-
dividual debts and left the documents
unmailed, to be expressed to their homes
at an additional cost to the state, and
that we put down the thing as a steal and
unlawful,
The ablest member now in the House,
is J. M'Dowell Sharpe, of Franklin, We
do not know whether he read the Reror-
TER, but we are pleased to observe that
he has called the attention of the House
to this steal, which costs the state some
$25,000 per session. And as Mr. Sharpe
is one of the foremost lawyers of the
state, the Rerorrer flatters itself that it
was correct in the view it took of this
business. Let the distinguished mem-
ber from Franklin insist upon having
this steal put an end to, We are also
pleased to see that the same able gentle-
man has made a move against that nui-
sance, the Leg. Record.
We call the attention of Mr. Sharpe to
a table which we publish elsewhere in
this issue of the RxrortEr, carefully
made up from the Aud. Gen'l Report,
1881, and which gives the amount that
can be lopped from enormous charges
paid for doing some little things about
the hill—it is in these where the extrav-
agance and stealings are carried on.
WHERE THE CHIEF-CLERK CAN
MAKE A REAL POINT.
To discharge a lot of scrub-women and
pages, was all right—there were too
many. But they got only a few dollars,
and they were not an an eye-sore to the
people. But we score one for their dis
charge.
Now then, we call the attention of
chief-clerk Meek to larger game that
will flutter around him and ask him fo
keep his shot-gun heavily loaded and
let drive at practices of former chief
clerks who had heavy bills for things in
and around the chamber. Who got the
divies the chief-clerks might know, We
call the attention of clerk Meek to the
items below, taken from the last Aud.
Gen'l Report, and if he will see that bills
of the kind shall not be foisted upon the
taxpayers, we will score one for him.
Here is one of the big leaks and where
the people want reform:
Members $50 each for stationery, $10,
000,
William "P. Smull, acting chief-clerk
for contingent expenses, 1881, $1045, do
"81, $41.
Harry Hahn, chief clerk for contingent
expenses, $8,500,
Harry Huhn, chief-clork, for lacks, &e.,
$187.
Harry Huhn, chief-clerk, for repairs,
$805,
Harry Huhn, chief-clerk, for repairs,
$107.
Harry Hahn, chief-clerk, for indexing
journal, $200,
Here are nearly eleven thousand dol-
lars, outside stationery, that passed into
the hands of chief-clerk, Harry Huhn,
just for fixing around the House, besides
the regular salary of that officer, which is
$2500.
Then there is the deal for carpets and
oil clothe, $2708, What was done with
the old put in the session before? Then
there are further “repairs” amounting to
near $2000 all coming under the jurisdic.
tion of the chief-clerk. Now how much
steal is hidden under the name “of re-
pairs?’ Repairs has been a big thief
around the House chamber for 20 years,
and we would be pleased to have Meek
route him out and let Reform take his
place.

The expenses for the government of
the District of Columbia are paid by the
United States. The population is 180,000
and in territory its extent is about that of
one of our Pemnsvalley townships. It
costs about $2,150,000—o0r near $12 per
head for every man, woman and child.
At this rate the expenses for governing
Centre county one year would foot up
$450,000. Now this gives the reader of
the Rerorres an idea of ring rule. But
as the United States pays the expenses
for governing the District of Columbia,
the people there dio not feel the effects of
these expenses. In cities like
Philadelphia, however, where the people
pay for the fun of having the ring man-
age the city's affairs, the tax-payersshud-
der when the collector comes around.
There have been enormous jobs in the
District of Columbia, and men like Boss
Shepherd havz saade millions there out
of worthless paving contracts and such
like. Will congress look at this rotten.
ness, and plant a little reform there ?

WHERE TO REFORM IN EARNEST,
A Guipe 10 Hoxgst LecisLatons,
Jf the Penn’a Legislature is really de-
sirous of obeying the voice of the people,
which is loudly for cutting down expen-
ditures, and the stopping up of the big
leaks, the Rerorrer will point out plain-
ly where the ugly holes are that suck in
the public funds. We were the first to
publish a list of these stealsjpome years
ago, and for the benefit of our servants
now at Harrisburg, we will again show
them up, pointing them out as contained
in the Auditor General's Report for 1851,
The sums we present are such as we take
to be in excess, and most of them a clear
steal:

AT HARRISBURG.
The Reform started ai Harrisburg is
all good, but it is only a drop of what is
wanted, There was not much com-
plaint about scrub-women and pages, al-
tho’ too many, and what they got was a
trifle and that was not stolen. Reform
must run into the big steals by the big
fish and jobbers.
A bill has been introduced in the
House requiring Justices of the Peace to
attach seals to their returns, A bill was
read to abolish the contract system in
penitentiaries. A Dauphin member has
a bill for a vote every three years on gen-
eral license. Another bill to fix the sala-
ry of members $1000, long or short ses-
sion. Then 4 bill to prevent political or-
ganizations from paying taxes for voters,
Then there is this bill that offers a new
idea: That there shall annually be lev-
fed upon voters a poll tax of two dollars
and fifty cents, in addition to other taxes
now prescribed by law for State, city and
county uses, the voter not to pay the tax
if he votes but if he fails to exercise the
franchise,
To remedy an rpparant defect in the
presidential succession bill, in the Sen-
ate, on 12, Mr. Ingalls introduced a bill
to provide for determining the existance
and the removal of the inability of the
president of the United States to dis
charge the powers and duties of that of
fice,
two heads of departments shall state in
office, if the court be not then sitting, the
chief justice, shall, within ten days, con-
vene it to hear and determine summari-
ly the question of the alleged inability,
and if, upon said hearing, it shall appear
to said court that such inability exists,
they shall certify their decision to the
vice president, who shall therenpon dis-
charge the powers and duties of the of-
i fice of president.

Clearfield county has a big railroad
| and coal boom, We expect our neigh-
| bors across the ridges to be among the
| most populous counties of the state in
| course of time, as the vast coal fields of
| Clearfield are being opened up and new
| railroads traverse the county, thousands
| of miners and others will flock thither.
lelative to the new railroad projects
the Lock Haven Republican of a late
| date, says, “that there will be two rail
roads built np Beech Creek is about as
| certain as anything can be, On Tuesday,
December 26th, an agreement was en-
between the Williams-
port and Clearfield Railroad and the
{ Penusylvania Railroad, under which the
former company will enter at once upon
the construction of a railroad from the
mouth of Beech Creek to Snow Shoe.
| The charter of the Williamsport and
Clearfield company authorizes the build
| ing of a road from Williamsport to Clear-
| field town, and it is stated they propose
| after the construction of the road to
Snow Shoe to continue acrossthe Summit
i to Clearfield. The contract has already
been awarded to strong parties in New
| York for building the road from Beech
Creek to Snow Bhoe and work will com-
mence at once, as it is expected to com-
plete the road so as to connect with the
Bald Eagle Valley at Beech Creek by the
first of next August. The rails have
| been purchased and will be forwarded as
goon as possible, The price of iron is
now lower than for some time past and
| the company concluded to take advan.
tage of it. An offer was made a few days
| ago to parties furnishing the rails, and it
| was accepted. Some active demonstra
tions may be looked for within a very
| few weeks, and it is not improbable that
| two new railroads will traverse the coun-
| try between Beech Creek and Clearfield
{ within the next year, The officers of
| the Williamsport ang Clearfield com-
pany are New York men of large means
and have the confidence of capitalists,
and with the backing of the Pennsylva-
nia Railroad will push things from the
start,
“About seventy miles of the Susque~
hanna and Southwestern Railroad from
Jersey Shore, up Beech Creek into Clear-
field county, will be let within the next
few days. When this is done we may
look for lively times in this section of the
country.” .

THE MILWAUKEE HORROR,
75 Persons Burned—Men and Wo
men Jump from the Windowe.
Milwavkee, January 10.~The city is
| grief stricken by the most terrible disas-
| ter that has ever visited it. The New-
hall House, a six story brick building,
| was burned to the ground at an early
{ hour. The fire was discovered at about
four o'clock, when all the guests were
| sleeping, and in less than balf an hour,
the whole building, long designated as =
{death trap, was enveloped in flames,
{Scenes of the utmost horror prevailed.
{ The inmates of the doomed building
{ jumped by dozens from the upper sto-
| ries, covering the stone sidewalks with
| lifeless bodies, The shrieks of the une
| fortunates filled the gir in a heartrend-
{ing manner. The people below were un-
{able to render any sid. Quite a number
|of the terrified guests and employes of
| the hotel appeared at the windows, and
| seeing the distance to the ground fell
back to perish in the flames,
The employes of the hotel, which ac-
commodated 800 guests, numbered eigh-
ty-six, mostly lodged in the sixih story,
exit by way of the roof was cut off by the
fire and the two standpipes with the fire
Iadders were not available for the same
reason. A number of wholesale estab-
lishments in Water street wers da
by fireand by the falling walls of the
building. It way be safely said that six-
ty persons are dead and thirty seriously
injored.
The scenes at the morgue, where thir-
ty«<two bodies are lying in a ghastly
heap on the floor of a amall room, are
heartrending beyond human power of
description,
Tom Thumb got out through the front
entrance, and his wife was brought down
the fire escape by a fireman.
Regarding the origin of the fire Mr
Antisdel said the night watchman saw it
first, but before he coald do anything,
the flames shot up the elevator igniting
every door, “I am confident that the fire
started at the elevator, but how I cannot
say. | was awakened by the noise and
rushed out to find the building filled
with flames and smoke and people gy.
ing for their lives,” A number of th:
rescoed guests say the fire started from
the basement and went throogh the ele-
vator to all parts of the house before an
alarm could be given.
John Antisdel, proprietor of the New-
hall House, is 8 raving maniac, running
up and down the streets crying: =“Oh,
my God ! who set that on fire ?”
The halls of the hotel were a scenes of
the wildest contusion. Men, women and
children rushed up and down in the
dense, suffocating smoke, avoiding the
| blinding flames and roaring blaze, and
in their frantic efforts rushed by the
stairways and windows leading to the
fire escape, tumbling over the bodies ly-
ing unconscious. A man stood on the
corner of the fifth story, twenty minutes,
not daring to leap. inally, he became
bewildered by the smoke and slid off the
perch to the canvass below, The few
who held it could not give necessary re-
sistance. The body was shattered to a
lifeless mass, Above the last unfortu-
pate sat & man crouched upon & window
sill, gazing like one absent-minded into
a fiery abyss, motionless, but from time
to time sending up beartrending shrieks.
The flames encroached upon him, sing-
ing bis hair and licked his night-clothes.
With a despairing look he tumbled back
into the fire,
About a dozen jumped from the Mich-
igan street front. Each leap meant death
or shattered limbs, and not less than
four unfortunates, at one time, lay upon
the icy sidewalk, clad only in night
clothes, blood and brains oozing from
wounds through which the bones pro-
truded,
The scene in the alley west of the
burning building, was sickening. As
early as 6 o'clock the bodies of seven un-
fortunate girls were stretched upon the
snow, with broken limbs writhiog in ag-
ony.
GOOD MRS, TOM THUMB,
Tom Thumb and wife wererescued, from
the hotel by Police Officer 0’ Brien. They
were in their night clothes, and Mrs,
Thumb suffered much from the cold air.
The General,immedistely upon being pla
ced in the express office, began mourning
the loss of] valuable diamonds and other
jewelry belonging to himself and wife.
The latter heard him through and replied
reprovingly, “What if we have lost every.
thing; just look at those people there,”
pointing to mangled forms of twenty dead
und dying men and women lying upon the
floor. The little woman then bravely bes
gan relieving the sufferings of those around
her by supplying them with water and the
display of other acts of sympathetic kinds

WHAT THE GENERAL BAYS,
Tom Thumb, one of the rescued inmates of
the house, tells the following story of his
experience:— 1 was partially aroused
from a heavy sleep by s violent beating
and pounding at my door. I was hardly
awake when I arose and wondered what
the matter could be’.
“It seemed as if retreat was impossible,
The blinding, suffocating smoke and terris

FATAL GUNNING ACCIDENT.
A week or so ago two young men
named Eves and Blackburn, of Blorms-
town, Centre county, were out gunning
about a mile and a balf from tibet ancient
village, and from some cause the ramrod
of young Eves’ gun became so tightly
fastened in the thimbles of the stock that
he could not remove it. In order lo get
it from its place Eves asked Blackburn
to take hold of the gun, placing one hand
in front and the other back of the lock,
and Eves took hold of the ramrod. Eves
gave a quick jerk which drew the gun
through Blackburn's hand, raising the
hammer #8 it was driven through, and
in the same instant the hammer not bes
ing drawn back a sufficient distance
dropped, and the contents of the rifle
were sent crashing through the young
man’s bowels, inflicting a fatal wound.
The young man fell to the ground and
his comrade, who was the younger of the
two, hastened to carry the sad news fo
the friends of the young man, who ap-
peared in a short time, finding him sen-
sible and entreating bis companion not
to ery as he was not seriously hort. Med-
ical aid was sent for, but before it reach.
ed, the heart of the lad had coased to
best. Death came from internal bleeds
ing an hour and a ball after the accident
occurred. He was 18 years old; the son
of Mr. Joreph Eves, 8 promisest and
highly respected citizen of Stormstown
