It will hardly dotossy that the great

strikes in this country are due to the

Singular enough that the Press, dur-

strikes in this country; and siogular, too
that under our high tariff we have con.

The pig Piolett, announced at Williams
Grove, last week, that he had gone over
to Harrison sand for high tariff taxes
All knew that last campaign, and the few
little pigs that nestled in his vest pock~
ets, followed thebig pig's gront at the
same time. The Democratic grangers
see now that they have been cheated by
Piolett and his monomaniae, who only
cared to use the good purposes of the
grange and confiding farmers for the
base purpose of getling office. The wise
heads in the grange, of both parties, soon
discovered this selfish purpose, and have
saved the noble order from being prosti-
tuted to low political ends.
Frederick Schulla, the explorer, sends
the following from Flagstaff Ariz.
“When the announcement of my discov-
ery of cliff dwellers in Northern Chibua~
hoa was made some months ago, the
question was raised as to the relation
these living cliff dwellers sustained to
the extinct tribes, whose dwellings are
are found in Arizona. I have ex.mined
the cliff dwellings here and find them
the same as those in Chihuahaa, This
supports the theory that the cliff dwell
ers driven out of Arizona by the warlike
tribes found safe refuge in the Sieira
Madres, where I found thousands of them
a few months since,”
The Democratic candidate for Pro-
thonotary in Centre county is Mr. Lew
Schaeffer, of Bellefonte a son of ex-8her-
iff Behaeffer of Walker township, and he
is a brother in law of Mrs, Frank Blacks
ford of this city. Mr. Schaeffer is the
incumbent of the office and is asking for
a re-election, which will undoubtedly be
accorded him. He isove of the best
prothonotaries in the State, is 8 member
of the bar and thoroughly familiar with
all the forms and processes strictly tems
perate and industrious and always at his

valuable officer for the court and thé peo-

What It Costs,
Since the year 1860 the people of the
United States have paid to the officials
of the cost yin houses the enormous sum
of Four Billions, Siz Hundred Millions of
Dollars.
This money represents the tax known
as a “customs daty” upon

Too Big a Platform.
The platform of the Pennsylvania Pro
hibitionista illastrates the curious ten-
dency of the Prohibition party to add to
ita main and original object a heterogen-
eons collection of unrelated principles,
some sensible, some cranky. The Pann-
#ylvania Convention endorsed the na-
tional Prohibition platform of 1888 and
prepared a long platform of its own, The
demands for the Australian ballot system
and the denunciation of trusts are, we
think, vew features in Prohibition man-
ifestos, Considering that constitutional
and statutory prohibition was the pnr-
pose of the Prohibitionists, it is queer
what a long jumble of subjects and ob-
jects their platfo rms have come to be, A

On Thursday at the
picnic a ludicrous incident occurred
when National Lecturer Mortimer
Whitehead delivered himself on the sub-
ject of “machine politicians.” He said
that he had been told that at the Penne
sylvania republican state convention the
attendance was small and that the body
was utterly devoid of enthusiasm, “Small
wonder I” exclaimed Mr. Whitehead.
“The boss, Mr. Quay, picks out the can-
didate for his party and his henchmen
meet in state convention to ratify his
choice,” or words to that effect. While
he uttered these words, the Honorable
Henry Kline Boyer, the picked out can.

stand behind the lecturer, waiting to be
introduced as the next speaker. It was,
indeed, an interesting situation.

About the beginning of the Christian
era an Egyptian coloring substance,
known as the Alexandria blue, was in
use in Italy and elsewhere for wall deo-
orations. It was a magnificent, brilliant,
deep sky blue crystalline pigment. The
crystals showed pale rose color when
looked at edgewise. The Alexandrian
blue was, however, lost in the middle
ages, greatly to the regret of modern
chemists and artists, Professor Fougne,
of the French Academy of Belences, an-
nounces that he has rediscovered the art
of making the pigment and will give
the knowledge to any Frenchman who
