CENTRE HALL, PA., THURS, Mar, 18 BINCE the new President is in, it is about time the gold came out. T——— A ————————— TrE Penn’a legislature has been in session ten weeks, and as yet not a sin- gle bill has been passed. ——————— A —————— THE proposed new tariff will put up the price of woolen goods from $1 to $1.35. That's what you get but didn’t want. IT is estimated in Havana that 80, 000 Spanish soldiers have been killed in Cuba by the insurgents or have died of yellow fever, smallpox and ma- laria. i The township and boro auditors all over the state have gone over the ac- counts of local expenditures, it is here where the bills are made that cause | your only taxes—economy by the lo- | cal boards means low taxes. wo ——————— i te tmienrenri ONE of the main railroads in Mary-| land the other day notified itsemploy- | es of a reduction of 10 per cent. in wa- ges. And thison the borders of Wash. ington where the advance agent of prosperity now has his roost. emi IT appears the M. E. church where our state legislature holds its sessions is ample in all respects for that pur- pose. Then why not buy the church for $100,000 and not build a new capi- tol to cost millions besides saving $100,000 of the insurance ? pf pn Here's a state of things ! Gen, Mose- by called on President McKinley and was cordially received by him !! And not a Republican newspaper shouts treason or rebellion!!! Whither are we drifting? Where are the patriots who guage their love of country accor- ding to the wind on their stomach? asks the Patriot. ———— letersi Gov. Hastings has recommended that the State build its Capitol in sec tions, one building at a time. The in- stallment plan has several merits—it would fit the conditions of the State | Treasury, satisfy the canons of archi- | tectural art, and best of all, afford small opportunities for the jobbery that would be pretty sure to thrive] upon any colossal plan. meses A A RS It is a true old German saying, Gro- | se Diebe haengt man, und Kleine] laeszt man laufen. For robbing a man | of forty cents Wm. Jeffrey was taken | to Bing Sing prison a few days ago to] serve a sentence of twenty years, im- posed upon him by Couuty Judge Lent. A month ago Jeffrey, while in a restaurant at Peekskill assaulted the proprietor and robbed him of 40 cents, Bardsley stole millions and was par- doned after being in the penitentiary few years. Rev. Dr. Bwallow is still on the fly. The libel suits in which certain State officials are plaintifis, and the editor of the Pennsylvania Methodist, defen- dant will be called in the Dauphin County Quarter Sessions to-day. Dr. Swallow's counsel have been in con- sultation for two days and are prepar- ing for a strong fight. They say the other side will get all the notoriety and evidence they want, and ridicule the threatened proceedings for con- tempt in the Legislature. Apropos of the late death of Mrs. Henry Ward Beecher, it is curious to reflect that Mrs. Theodore Tilton ia yet alive, though a great sufferer. She was blind for many years (from ecata- racts), but owing to successful opera- tions, can see now and lives in Brook- lyn with her old mother. Theodore Tilton lives in Paris and wriles for newspapers; tho few Americans know or even see him. One of his daugh- ters is married in Chieago and the oth- er teaches school in Brooklyn. A — I, THE rebels in Cuba are confident of success. Under date of Feb. 24, Gen. Ruis Rivera, commander of the Cuban | patriot forces in the Province of Pinar | del Rio, writes to Senor Palma, the Cuban delegate in New York, as fol- lows : “Be at ease as to our success in the present campaign. ‘The dry sea son is about to end, and we occupy the same positions as when Gen. Weyler came to the province at the head of his big army. If there is any change among us it is for the better. Our sol- diers have become veterans ; they are more sure now of our final triumph than they ever were. In my opinion no Spanish general, no Spanish army, 1s able to pacify Pinar del Rio.
