That "The Davis" has stood the test through the many years it has been before the public, needs no better proof than that its stiles exceed the most sanguine expectations of its friends, and have astonished the manufacturers, who have twice within the last few years been obliged to enlarge their factory, more than doubling their capacity.

Thero Is no question so rlronilncn' and so much discussed as '.ho tariff, and the surplus money in tho U. S. Treasury. Tho 3100,000,000 wrung from th6 people yearly In excess lo tho necessary expenditures of the government, is nothing less than a crlmo against the people. This surplus must be abolished, and President Cleveland did a wlso thing in confining his annual message to this ono important subject. Uron this subject all agree; but as lo how, where and lehcn. there Is a wide difference f opinion. It seems to be evident that no bill can be passed unless it be by mutual concession and compromise. These con cessions, If a bill Is to be enacted at this session of Congress, must recognize dis tinctively tho Democratic principle of In cidental protection and not "Free Trado." rhe surplus can be wiped cut by taking the tariff off raw materials and particularly from the real necessaries of life. The In ternal revenue system may also sug gest a means of relief or at least contribute something thereto. Therefore by com promising the several wings of tho Demo cratic party by taking a slice off both im portations and .revenue taxes, substantial results can bo obtained. This should be lone In a broad pacific spirit, satisfactory to all elements of the partv, If possible. One thing is certain, that these results and Cleveland's re-election cannot be accom plished If out and out "Fiea Traders", are permitted to shape a policy upon which so much depends. In 1SS3 the success of tho Democracy de pends upon united action, and not upon measures supported by Carlisle, Mills, Scott,' ct. al but It will require also the co-operation of Randall, McAdoo, ct. al. And those who by infl.ttnatory articles, by reading Democrats who believe in protec tion, out of the party, and by urging non- concession and demanding "Freo Trade," thereby provoking harmony In the majori ty party, commit a crimo against Dcino- c.acy and good government and deserve to bo branded as traitors. I very much fear that ths current discussions upon reducing unnecessary taxation and thereby prevent- ns; the accumulation of such a large and dangerous surplus in the U..S. Treastrry, ato runnlug wild and reckless as to effects and consequences, and unconsciously lead ing the great Democratic party into the broad road which leads to political destruc tion. Many of these, discussions and argu ments do not stop at the real point at Issue to reform the tariff and prevent the ac cumulation of fhe surplus but go right Into tho fundamental theory of absolute Free Trade." The Picsldent Is not re sponsible for this madness. Ho had a specific object in view when ho wiotelils message. The surplus in tho U. S. Treas ury was so largo as to endanger all the business Interests in tho country. We all agreo that there Is a crying need for a thor ough revision of our present Iniquitous tariff laws, to bring them In accord with tho plainest principles of equity, even If there was no surplus In tho Treasury to specially demand i'. Rut to do this It Is neither necessary or beneficial to go Into abstract theoietical discussions of "Free Trade" principles. Tho tariff laws can undoubtedly he so amended and revised as lo relieve the country from the continued accumulation of this burdensome surplus with an cyo fixed and direct upon a just protection of business and labor. What ever views ion may personally hold upon the abstract question, as to whether Pro tection or Free Trade.bc the truo economic doctrine, it is certain that no country can safely change from one system to the other except by slow and gradual steps. A sud den change ot such systems is not only dangerous to the business Interests of the country, but it would also prove to bo stil cldal to tho political party that attempts It. I hope the Democratic party will steer clear of theso dangerous political shoals, so that It may again safely land In the harbor of political power. A freo trado argument at this time is too big for tho people, and it swallows Itsolf up, when you attempt to reconcile It with the ODject of the Presl dent's mcssago it's like a man attempting .... . . ... ... .... v - to un niinseii uy pulling ai uis uoot straps, It is not yet fully known what concessions the Randall wing of the Democratic party is willing to make In this matter, since the President's earnest and patriotic appeal to tho country, but in no event must that potent. Influential and pswerful element of the Democracy be Ignored, Ir Cleveland, or any other Democrat, Is to win In 16SS.

IR THE MLD OF MBOB, Bvclnlly Compiled for tho Toilers by an Ad vocate Man So far this month 8300 men have gonn on strike. Ths silk mill at Katt Mauch Chunk Is crowded with orders. Tho two stilt mills In Bethlehem give employment lo about 800 hands. A Vciy rich vein of coal six feet thick has just been struck in Golfax, 111. Xew York Iv. of L.

The Ucrsli Heater Works have been closed until tho Lehigh foundry resumes operations. New plate-glass works will ha started In nutler. Pa., which will be the finest In tho country. Tho Luclnda-lurnaco at Norrlstown has just received a consignment of 2000 tons of Iron ore from Africa. Tho largest glass tumbler cycr made ntno Inches high and six inches across the top was made at Rochester, Pa. It holds eighty ounces. The Philadelphia & Reading Railroad conductors are signing a petition which Is to be sent to Congress protesting against tho propose! licensing of conductors. A large stove manufacturer in Albany has secured tho consent of his woikmcn to retain 10 per cent, of their wages until the end of tho year, to be forfcltrd to tho firm In event of a strike. Tho Massachusetts Labor Commission ers aro watching the employment of children with extreme care. Tho public school sys tem has suffered by factory Industry-, and It Is now proposed ro correct this evil. A Pittsburg foundry made 2000 can nons and thirty thiitcon-lnch mortars for the United States during the war. These thirty mortars throw 10,000 tons of cast iron Into Vlcksburg. Each mortar weighed eight and a half ions. Tho Lehigh Valley Rallroadis experi menting with soft coal and a number of its freight locomotives are burning this kind ot fuel. It Is said that tho Wyoming ah thraclto coal, which the company has been using since the strike, Is full of slate and not at all satisfactory. There is a great deal of mistaken talk going on about railroad-building In the Northwest. There aro even now neatly 10, 000 miles of railroad projected, and, as there Is anxiety to put money intorillroad building, it Is nrobablo that the outside rather than the Inside limit ot railroad building will be done. The Lloyd valve works, foundry and machine shops, which have been Idle since the fall of 1SS5, will be stated up again In a week or two, tho Bethlehem foundry and machine shop having consolidated with the yalve works. Tho works havo the finest machinery in tho county. The news of the resumption of these works will be hailed with pleasure by tho people, as it will give work to a yery largo niinihcr.of mechanics. Tho shutting down of so many furnaces for want of coal has caused misery in an unexpected quarter. There being no de mand for ore, many of the iron ore mines along tho East Fenn Railroad have closed down. The miners, who havo large fami lies, received only 75 to 00 cents a day, and consequently, even working, are In almost abject poverty. About thirty of them, with their families, have been compelled to sock admittance to the Berks and Lehigh coun ties poor houses until work Is resumed. This Is a result ot the strike, and In view of It all men can be Intimidated to such profound foolishness. Heating with ranch Sucmss. Dr. F. I. Smith, of Great Bend.P.i., who located in this town, soma months ago for the practice of dentistry is meeting with much success.

A Versatile Correspondent Comments on Time ly Topics. Irwin Angel, of Pike county, Is visit ing his brother William Angel, of this plaf-o. i ll is sate to say that If tho present ; boiird of commissioners leave as good a 1 balanco sheet at the end of their term, they I can retire with tho thanks of the taxpay- ers. I Dr. Il'm. Jf. DuFoui, formerly of Lo-j hlgliton, has just been elected a niemberof ' the board of education of Wllllamspoit a ! well deserved compliment to a man of fino scholarly attainments. Among the possible candidates fur the Legislature JIalloy and Fisher are spoken of; well, anything but a Rachman repeti tion. Both of those gen lemcn have ability and would lie a credit to the county. Rev. John Hagan has entered the mis sionary field of the M. K. church and ex pects to enter upon tils duties soon. It Is likely that ho wilt he sent, lo some of the small German settlements of thn West. Jfr. Hogau has been a close student for tho last fev years, boing thoioughly inlerstcd In the cause hi- will no doubt do good work. There Is no use getting exorcised over the possibilities of the new congressional field there will be any number of candi dates, but tho fiist plum will not be plucked by a Carbonlte. Mutchlcr -and Storm will sec to It that tho starting point Is not. from Carbon, although wn have excellent con gressional material, such us Brodhead, Klolz, Craig, Hapsher, Crtssldy, Hurling ami Zern. We see that Gen. Lllly'is taking an ac tive interest In congressional matters, yet his chances for representing this section aro no better than ever. The General has ability and his general experience as a bus iness man ate factors In his fayor, but his party lack the requisite number of votes to elect. Had bo remained loyal to Demo cracy there Is no doubt he would long ago havo been tho Hon. Wm. Lilly, but thon the best of men mako mistakes. Tho lato riot in the coal regions Is said to bo attributable to Hungarians, Poles and vllfl whiskey, and yet this class aro taken Into the K. ot L. organization, fed, fostered and flattered. What for? simply to. pre vent their taking thcplacc ot strlkeis. It has been claimed that as soon as a Hungar ian, Pole, or whatever the nalionaIity,reach tho coal region he Is Initiated ami becomes a K. of L., loyal and serviceable; this being true, tho attempt to shift tliu responsibility of tbo lato riot on thle class alone will be abortive; the average reader of the day knows tho sentiment of tbo wage worker around the mines the same principle gov erned long before the Hungarians, Poles or Italians reached here. list of Letters Remaining uncalled for In the Lehlgh ton, Pa., Post-Ofilce, for the week ndlng February, 4th, 188S.
