THE GRANGERS BILL
Members of the grange legislative
committee, sayk the Patriot, were to
have a hearing yesterday before the |
house ways and means committee on |
the revenue bill of the Pennsylvania
state tax conference. This measure
was defeated in the senate two years
ago after it had passed the house by
practically a unanimous vote. There
is no probability of it becoming a law,
because it will not raise sufficient rev-
enue to meet the state expenses,
The grangers are committed to the
bill and believe it will place more tax
on corporations. A practical test of
the amount of revenue it will raise is
now being made by the auditor gener-
al's department. The railroads and
other corporations ostensibly behind
the proposition two years ago, have
withdrawn their support and the gran-
gers have the field all to themselves,
several weeks to report to the legisla
ture the result of the practical opera-
tions of the measure,

Peace, or McKinley Gives You No Ple,

~that is President McKinley's ultima-

make any appointments for this state,
but he will not even consider applica.
tions, according to trustworthy infor-
mation. McKinley told Penrose this,
and it is announced the two senaturs
have decided not to make any sugges-
tious until they know what they are
to be allowed ; in other words, not un-
til some kind of a peace is patched up
of the president can be bulldozed into
backing down from his demand for
harmony.

Howard Rossman, ove of our popu-

ished and puzzled on Saturday last.
At noon on reaching hothe to dine, to
his dismay he discovered no prepara-
tions for dinner; this was a remarka-
ble occurrance as his meals are always
ready on his arrival, so entering the
parlor to vent his wrath on the furni-
ture for the apparent neglect, he sud-
denly found himself surrounded by a
large assemblage of relatives and
friends, laughing and amused at his
“eonfusion worse confounded;” How-
ard was speechless. It was the anni-
| versary of his birthday, and his wife
bad quietly gotten up the surprise par-
ty for his benefit and with complete
success. After partaking of a very
elaborate dinner, to which all did am-
ple justice, Howard delivered a few
pleasant remarks and confessed that
he had been kept completely in the
dark, and added with a broad smile—
with such a dinner in view, and to be
with such agreeable company as the
present, he would have no objections
to celebrate his anniversary twice a
week.
