GG. D. Borden, owner of the Iron Works Mill, at Fall River an- nounced a few days ago that he will begin the erection of an 80,000 spindle printing cloth mill. The mill will be the largest single one under one roof in America, and will cost nearly a mil- lion dollars. The great revival of iron and steel industry is foreibly shown by the in- crease in wages at many plants. In one day last week increases have been made in Western Pennsylvania alone ranging from 10 to 25 per cent. that will benefit nearly 10,000 men. ———— i —— A THE counties taken in whole or part from Lycoming are, Tioga, Sullivan, Union, Centre, Clinton, Potter, M’- Kean, Cameron, Elk, Clearfield, War- ren, Forest, Venango, Clarion, Arm- strong, Jefferson, and Indiana. When the original county of Lycom- ing was erected it had 10,208 square miles. Sometime after this 392 square miles were annexed that were taken from Luzerne. The present area of Lycoming is 1213 square miles. Cen- tre took 151 square miles from Lyeom- ing, and our present area is 1227 square miles, AIM — THE question as to whether papers have a right to publish records of mar- riage licenses will now have a judicial answer, as the case was argued last week before Judge Biddle, in Carlisle, The counsel for the newspaper men contended that the licenses should be printed because it is the common right of all persons to inspect and examine said dockets because of their being pub- lic records; because it is the duty of the custodian of public records to furnish information concerning or to supply a transcript of such portions of said ree- ords as may be demanded; under the laws of Pennsylvania itis required that notice be given in a public manner of the intention of parties to marry, i. e., publication of the marriage license; it was the intention of the legislature, as expressed in the act of 1885, to permit the inspection of the marriage license dockets and to permit the publication of the licenses of recent issue; it is to the best interests of the public that no- tice should be given In a public man- ner by newspaper, ete, of the intention of parties to unite in marriage. Judge Biddle filed an opinion sustaining the action of the Register, THE SILVER QUESTION, One of the most instructive articles | on the present free silver craze appears | in the editorial columns of the New York Herald. That newspaper recalls the days of greenbackism, and points out that even the dishonored green- back would be preferable to sending out coins worth fifty cents and calling them dollars. The greenback would be easier to carry and cheaper to make and as the free silver people appa- rently think that the money of the people need be but a matter of manu- facturing it, it naturally follows that | we should have the cheapest that we can get, It is conceded that silver at 16 to 1, which means free silver, would give the country inflation. Prices would rise, wages would rise—and so would the expenses of living. As the Herald plainly puts it, every laboring man who now gets $10 a week in sound money will then get the same number of dollars, but their purchasing power will be reduced one-half. American workingmen and labor of every Kind would find under the inflation that free coinage of silver would avowedly create and exact repetition of the evils they suffered under the flood of green- backs on the sixties and seventies. General Garfield, describing the effects of inflation, after the war of 1861 open- ed, said: Qur dollars fell to 38 cents, all prices were increased, but they were not all increased alike. The price of labor was the last to rise, and when it did rise, it did not rise so high as the cost of living rose; and in the wildest days of inflation, when the increase of wag- es was 50 per cent. the increase in the So that laborer’s cost of living was 75 per cent. while inflation increased the wages, it increased the cost of living more, It nominally gave him more, but in fact gave him less. Ruinous as free coinage of silver 16 to 1 would be to all labor, it would be still more deadly to our farmers and planters.

Republican bosses have played a bold and highhanded game in plundering the citizens of Philadel- phia, snd sc rotten has been their work that the stench of it has forced a large portion of the Republicans to Join the Democrats in a demand for a Lexow committee to investigate Phil adelphia.
