REFORM LEGISLATION,
When the new congress meets, in
December 1863, reform legislation can
be looked for.
One of the first duties of the new
Democratic congress will be to bring
relief to the agricultural interests by
tariff reform. The farmer must have
the burden of tariff’ taxes lifted from
his empty purse, so the purchasing
power of the low prices of grain will
be greater and bring him more goods
for his money. The millionaire and
capitalists can take care of themselves
and have preyed upon the farmer and
working classes long enough. It was
time the people called a halt, in tones
of thunder from every corner of the
land.
We know that the good effects of a
lower tariff’ will be felt by the
of the people of Centre county,
every county in the United States.
The war tariff’ to be continued down
to this day—thirty years after the war
—was simply robbery and outrage up-
on the toilers of the country. It has
got to end now—thanks to the good
sense of thousands of Republicans who
became alarmed at the iniquity and
joined with the Democracy to
this legalized robbery.
We want tariff enough only

THE NEW CABINET
These are lively times for Cabinet
makers. There are and ap
parently hundreds of Democratic lead-
ers and organs assuming that they
must take a hand at once in the forma-
tion of the new Cleveland Cabinet;
but it would be well for all not to lose
sight of the one man who will have
the last guess at the Constitutional
advisers of the new President. He has
not been inclined to babble on the sub-
ject, and while he silent, others
won't make much progress in award-
ing Cabinet honors.
It goes without saying that if Wil
liam C. Whitney desired, or would ac-
cept, a position in the new Cabinet he
would receive it with the hearty offer-
ing of the President and as hearty ap-
proval not only from his whole party
but from the country irrespective of
politics. He is one of the few men
who exhibit the highest qualities of
the statesman in all his movements as
a politician, and he would adorn any
position in the Cabinet. It is quite
probable, however, that he would not
accept the position, as both his busi-
ness interests and political possibilities
logically forbid it.
Whithout any knowledge on the
subject not accessible to all, we assume
that if Mr. Whitney shall not aceept a
portfolio under the new administra-
tion, the Cabinet will be composed en-
tirely of new men. Among the ap-
parent possibilities is Senator Gray, of
Delaware, whose transfer to the Cab-
inet would doubtless recall Mr. Bayard
to the Benate, where he would most
fitly round out his eminent public
career.
New York will have a Cabinet officer
of course, and he will doubtless be—
first, a man whom the President wants
and, second, a man who will not be
offensive to either of the party factions
in the State. Whitney would eom-
pletely fill the bill, but if he shall de-
gline, there must be others who could,
at least, go into the Cabinet without
protest from either side. How long
any New York Cabinet minister can
hold the party to unity in that State,
i8 one of the problems that only the
future ean solve.
Pennsylvania has no claim for a
abinet officer, and only special indi-
yiduat merit could command such an
honor for our State. Viewing it from
that standpoint, there is only one

JUDGE BARKER PRESIDING,

An Especially Hotly Contested Case up on
Tuesday
A special term of court was held
this week, Judge Barker, of Cambria |
county presiding. Among the inter- |
that of Wm. Colyer, plaintiff, H. A.
and J. D. McKee defendants, Colyer's
claim was to recover 5 per cent com-
mission on an extensive sale of timber
land in Potter township, this county.
The tract in question consists of 4000

1890, to the Glenn
Union Lumber Co. Previous to this
McKee Bros., the owners, had agreed
to pay Colyer 5 per cent commission
if sold to N. C. Frick, of Millersburg,
within a certain time. It was virtu-
ally a spec ial case and a special offer,
but the sale was not made, therefore
the defendants in the case maintain
they were not liable for the commis-
sion. Subsequently, however, the

Harrisburg Newspaper,
Fire was discovered in the Morning

hours. The interior of the building
was entirely burned out, and the loss
is estimated at from $40,000 to $60,000,
partly covered by insurance.
The morning edition had just been
run off when the conflagration took
place. Several persons were severely
burned. All the newspaper offices in
the city were tendered to the unfortu-

Withdraws His Sait.
The Philipsburg Jowrnal said that
our readers are all familiar with the re
cent school diffieulty, resulting in the
arrest of Superintendent Prof. J. G.
Anderson, by James Cale, on the
charge of undue punishment of the
latter's daughter. When the arrest
was made the professor entered bail for
his appearance before Judge Furst,
and everybody expected, of course,
from all reports, that the affair would
be thoroughly ventilated at the ap-
proaching session of our county court,
The case, however, will not come up,
the prosecutor, Mr. Cale, having with
drawn the suit and in addition paying
the costs thus far incurred. This set-
ties the matter, and for the sake of our
schools, which have been the pride of
our town, we hope the present term
may be combleted without any further
