Ex penditures on account of pensions In the first six months of the llscal year hare been $80,000,000, against SG0,900, 000 In the first six months of 1891-92.

A representative tf a silk mill con cern located at Allentown was in town this week with a view of securing a lo cation for a silk mill plant to employ 100 to 200 hands. All that Is wanted is 120,000 which is to be secured on the machinery of the comnany. This amount to be raised by the Issue of T0, a certain number to be payable at the end of each year. The t20.000 Is to be solely for the purpose of erecting a suitable building. Besides this amount a bonus of $0000 Is wanted to pay all costs of transferring the machinery. The offer is a fair one and wo suggest that immediate effort be made to se cure the industry, or to at least look careiuuy into tne project ana ascer tain wnat were is in It. Ilapsher'e Vot for Mntchlcr. Senator W. M. Rapsher's vote for . lion. Wm. Mutchler for United Srates Senator has caused wide-spread com ment. all because the Democratic Cau cus (which Senator Rapther did not attend) had nominated lion. George itoss oi uucits "Jo. lor mat nonor Senator Rapsher was not-a member of the caucus which nominated Mr. Ross and was therefore not bound by Its action, ."ore-over It Is beginning to be seriously discussed by the people, whether so very much caucus dictation, Is not a political nuisance, because It crushes out the spirit of an lndepen dent man and makes him a mere tool. Do the neODle of this district desire their Senator to be a mere figure-head, a tool, a dummy, or a man who is afraid to speak or vote for their best interests? We Have often beard the remark that some of our Representa tives were seen at Harrlsburg, but never beard. The N. Y. Sun tersely gave senator itapsners reasons why ho gave Hon. Wm. Mutchler a oomDlimen- tary vote, as follows: "The Democrats voted for State Senator Ross of Bucks. with two exceptions. Senator Rapsher of Carbon voted for Congressman Mutchler, because as he expla.ned, he Is 'the most distinguished Pennsylva nia Democrat In Congress since Sam'l J. Randall.' " Representative Lennon, of Lehigh, "voted for National Chair man Harrlty." To which we desire to add that Hon. Wm. Mutchler is the only Democrat In Congress, as fur as we know, who has made any attempt to have the National Government Insti tute inquiry and proceedings against the great Reading Railroad Combine. That Is worth a complimentary vote, without any otber merits. We have beard Senator Rapsher criticised for his faults and foibles, even In con nection with this vote, but be never pretended to claim "I am holler than thou," but In casting his vote for Hon. Wm. Mutchler for U. S. Senator and defending it, he did show his pluck and Indeuendenoe and did what we believe his constituents will approve, with but few exceptions. SQOIUH.

Mr. Taylor has only been with the Reading since tho lease of the Lohlgh Valley, with which he was conueoted; but he has proved his efficiency, as well as his ability to make friends (and new patrons) and to bold them.

The exercises opened with music, "Salvation, O Joy ful Sound," exoellently rendered by the choir of the Reformed church, Welssport, under the able leadership of Prof. D. W. L. Davis. Rev. Charles Creltz, the Reformed pastor, led In eloquent prayer, following which Bur gess B. J. Kuntz pleasantly welcomed the railroad boys to lively Lehlghton. Attorney T. A. Snyder continued the program with a well delivered address that was loudly applauded. The Bro therhood of Locomotive Engineers was represented by who held the large audience In attention for a half hour by a plain spoken and well delivered address on organization. This speaker was followed by Mr. Charlee Wilson, of the Brotherhood of Loco motive Firemen, who eloquently por trayod railroad life Its ups, Its downs and whacked corporations all around tha hush for their one hundred and one Impositions. In the absence of Mr. William Clark, of the Railroad Conductors, Mr. James Conroy, of Mauch Chunk, graced the platform for a minute In excuse of the former gen tleman's absence. He was followed by L. s. Coffin, president of the Disabled Trainmen's Homo, of Chicago, who lifted bis voice against Sunday work. Following a vocal rendition "Love Divine," by the choir, Representative Biery, of Welssport, was called on. He responded In a neat extemporaneeus lulilrnss. rjledMns his suDDort to the Interests of the railroad bovs in all just legislation for their good. He made manv friends through his re- marks.
