VOL. LXXI. REPUBLICAN EXTRAVAGANCE ENORMOUS WASTE OF THE PUB- LIC MONEY. Difference of State Expenses Under Patilson and Hastings. How the People's Mon- ey Was Squandered, State Chairman John P. Elkin in his recent defense of the Republican party, called attention to the fact that the state had been rescued from eight years of Pattison rule, says the Harris- burg Commonwealth, of the 5th, As showing the difference between the cost of two years under the last ad- | ministration in which the Democrats | had control of the executive oflicers | and part control of the legislature, and | that of the last two years with Repub. | licans at the top, the bottom, sides and | the middle of things, the following se- ries of figures will be found interest-| ing. They cover the outlay for the ex- | ecutive, legislative and judicial depart- ments of the state government for two years—1883-4—under Pattison as com- | pared with that for 1597-8 under Hast- | ings. The figures are all taken from | the appropriation bills, excepting those for printing and binding. No specific sum is voted under this head. As ex-| hibiting, therefore, the enormous | waste of the tax payers’ money through | the public printing office, at the orders | i i i Pulje printiog and binding 606,863 1,130,984 RECAFPITULATION, Executive offices.....

They show that the expenditure for printing and binding the often worse than useless state publications has al- most doubled sinee 1883, although the actual cost of doing that kind of work has been very materially reduced in They show that even the bench has been made to contribute to the imposi- tion largely by laws that multiply the | number of judges beyond all reason and then making laws that enables some of them to add almost fifty per cent. to their legal salaries by holding court in other districts in years when in order to keep up with the trial lists, they must have other judges come and hold court in their own districts. eSeminar ep ——— Apprehensions of Trouble. It is learned that the situation both in the Philippines and Cuba is a grow- | ing source of anxiety to the Adminis- tration. During the past few days the | President has frankly stated to parties | who have urged him to consent to the | mustering out of additional regiments | that he feared that too many regi-| ments had already been mustered out | of service, and that there are appre- | hensions that there will be need for | not only all the troops of the regular | army, which have done such splendid | all the volunteers in the various camps | who have been retained. The reports | from Havana indicate that Blanco is | far from pleasant io his dealings | with the Americans; that amounts of supplies are being hurried into the city since the blockade has | been raised ; that publie property is be- | ing as rapidly as possible smuggled out | large the regular and of the volunteer army | Then shall Heinle vote “Yes.” he will vote No. be plected to the senate “5 —————————— Constables aud thelr Mileage, (George M. Bilger, solicitor of Clear- field county, publishes the following: An item has been going the rounds of the press to the effect that a decision has recently beet handed down by the supreme court of Pennsylvania constru- ing the act of 1875 relating to the fees of constable to mean that constables are entitled to ten cents per mile circu- lar instead of ten cents per mile direct, as decided by various common pleas courts and by the superior court, and the commissioners’ office is in receipt of communications from several of the constables asking how they shall ren- der their bills at the common quarter sessions, In answer to the inquiry addressed to Charles 8. Greene, prothonotary of the supreme court, we are in receipt of a communication from him stating that no such decision has been render- ed, and that no case involving the point in question is before the Bu- preme court to his knowledge. Constables will be paid as heretofore at the rate of five cents per mile eireu- lar or ten cents per mile direct on all papers from justices of the peace, and on quarter sessions subpoenas accord- ing to the sherift’s bills, You invite d in meat.

In the mean time he read law with Col. J. L. Spangler, of Bellefonte and was admitted to the Centre coun- ty Bar in 1808. His ability was. such | as to enable him to become an influen- | tial member of his profession, and the | next year was elected District Attor- ney, aud was afterwards re-elected for a second term, serving in that capaci- ty for six years. Of avility as a teacher, he made a fine record; as an able lawyer, he has done equally as well, and now stands among the foremost at the Centre county bar, Such are the leading features of the character of the man aspiring to a seat in the State Senate, and whom the people would like to honor, as his elec- tion would shed honor on them, for he is of them and for their welfare, While Mr. Heinle is an aggressive man, defending his clients’ rights be- fore court and jury with a marked de- gree of force, vigor and power, thor- oughly in earnest in everything he does, radical in his Americanism, would resort to any means for patriot- fe purposes, yet in truth and in fact when his whole life is known it is a story of humane kindness to his fellow man. ———— AY AU AAO Death of a Chila, The little six-months-old daughter of Dr.and Mrs. H. 8.

Among the charges made against the officers are drunkenness, inefficiency in treatment of the sick, inactivity in securing pay and camp conditions. ft is also charged that the canned beef was allowed to lie in the sun, ex- posed until it became stale, when the commissary department caused it to be cooked up in hash. Its disease breeding taint was still there, howev- er, and eating it caused sickness. The accusation is also made that strong in- fluence was exerted to keep the regi- ment in camp instead of having it sent to the front. Important to Insurers, On and after the first day of Octo- ber, 1808, all insurance policies or re- newsls thereof shall be governed by the following rules: This policy or re- newal thereof, shall become void on the 30th day from date of issue, unless the premium or consideration named herein shall have been actusly paid at or before 12 o'clock noon of the said 80th day, and this notice is accepted as sufficient to comply with the cancella- tion notice required by lines No. 51 to to 55 (inclusive) of the pricted condi- tions of this policy.

The Commissioners are meet Mr. McKinley this week, previ- ous to sailing to Europe next Saturday. According to current gossip, the ad- ministration will only ask for one is- land—Luzon—in the Philippine group. The news received at the headquar- ters of the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee gets more en- couragiug every day. In many dist ricts that were some time ago put in the Republican column by a small margin, or were considered doubtful, the Democrats are now confident of winning. There is a feeling among Democrats that the House can be eap- tured, and a determination to do it. In a number of states the Republicans are divided into factions, which will add to the chances of electing Demo crats in Congressional districts now represented by Republicans, The Re- publicans are dropping their boastii attitude, and instead of talking of in- creasing their majority in the House, as they were doing a little while back, they are talking of trying to hold their own, and sending out appeals to the factions in a number of states, to get together. “Jen.
