No graver Mestion ever stared enlightened statesmen in the face than the immense surplus reveaue which is being wrung from the people sad locked up from $irculation. Every dollar lying use less in the Treasury vaults is taken indirectly from the consumer, and the wage workers on whom this burden mostly falls are the least able to hear it,. Twenty-four million of 72 cent dollars are annually coined and stored away in the vaults of the government in order to give a market for a few silver kings. The constant coinage of these fraud dollars is driviog gold out of circulation and the silver fraud can't take the place of gold. The treasary department has been com. peiled to resort to various expedients to get this silver into circulation hut the peopledon’t take to it kindly, The silver ring seems to have a great hld on Congress and nothing has been Whatever financial trouble and business depression may result from the evils of a great surplus reve. nugy and the compulsory coinage of sil Xr will be laid at the doors of the 2. both come and the crop of Bohemian oats and wheat has become notes, | dius voice lead many an unsuspecting { son of toil | per bushel for eats worth 20cts, per { bushel is found bailiwick of Sheriff Walker. | sought other fields of usefulness, where the harvest wiil be as bountiful as it has been here. | wailing avd goashing of teeth among the victims, but there seems to be bu one way out and and lift that | swindlers who comme fand the sLHin, for Mr. Curtis of his business, « was the ia county, cents” | dollar and a balf for a paper who will Twice the | 1eratic party, Bohemian Niote's) Harvest.

Upon the whole there are losses from the representation of 1885 86 of ten dele- gates and upon the same period gains of nineteen. The most substantial gain is for the Democracy of Allegheny county, where the increase from 16 834 votes fur Pattison to 20, 968 for Black gives the Democracy five new delegates for the next four years or more than half the net in. crease of delegrtes for the whole State. Philadelphia loses five delegates and gains one. Berks, Lancaster, Luzerne, Lackawanna, Mercer and Montgomery each lose one delegate while in addi- tion to the gains in Allegheny each of the counties of Bedford, Cambria, Clearfield, Elk.
