” SAPPLE; ENT. bring the State quite a snug sum; and, of course the State ought to have it. Treasurer Jackson would take a de- servedly high position as a reformer if he would vi advocate the pay- ment to the State of interest on the State moneys which it is found necessary to keep in the banks, meantime paying over to Philadelphia what was due it months ago, so that—if itis not to be immedi- ately expended—the city can get the ben- efit of the interest on it. Philadelphia Evening Bulletin, Oct. 5. THE STATE SCHOOL FUND. On the 1st of July last there was due the city of Philadelphia upward of $1,000,000 on account of the State school fund; but up to this time City Treasurer QOellers, who, on account of the city's needs for ready money, has been urging a prompt remission of the amount, has received only two payments of $150,000 each. More than $700,000 is therefore still due to the city, and no satisfactory reason | has been given to the City Treasurer up | to this time why it continues to be with- | held, or why the instalments have not at | least been as large and as frequent as those delivered to City Treasurer Mc- | Creary in the preceding year. | This delay in transferring to the city | money owing by the State is not, how- ever, a new experience, butit is one which ought to be done away with, It is unfair to the city in depriving it of the | use of the money for its current expen- ses, or of the interest on it as a deposit; it is unbusiness-like, and it invites sus-| picions as to the custody or handling of | the fund. State Treasurer Jackson should either | comply at once with the urgent requests | of the City Treasurer or furnish an ex | planation of the conditions of the Treas | ury that justify the delay. Philadelphia Evening Bulletin, Oct. 8. INTEREST ON STATE DEPOSITS. The failure of State Treasurer Jackson to comply promptly with the request of City Treasurer QOellers for the payment of the city’s share of the school fund again invites attention to the practice in the State Treasury of distributing large bal- ances among the banks without interest. There has never been any good reason advanced why, if the city of Philadelphia can easily command two per cent. for its monies on deposit, the Commonwealth should not receive the same considera- tion at the hands of the banks which it selects as depositories. If the State Treasury were under the same law that governs the City Treasury in respect to interest on its call balances, it would be nearly if not quite $100,000 richer every year. The profit which private parties are enabled to make out of the handlings of the balance —averaging usually well on to §5 0oo,000—which the State carries in the banks, is one of the long-standing abuses at Harrisburg which the authors of the Republican reform platform this year need not travel very far to look into. l.et Colonel Heywood, in his letter of acceptance as the Republican candidate for State Treasurer, pledge himself to put an end to this loose and unbusiness- like management of the public monies. Philadelphia Ledger, Oct. 7. ADMINISTRATION OF TREASURY. BAD THE STATE Apologists for the * unbusiness-like | administration of the State Treasury offer as an excuse for the State Treas urer’s custom of carrying a balance of $4,000,000 to $5,000,000 in bank that ‘* there are constant drafts upon the State Treasury which must be promptly met.” These drafts are isconsiderable in amount, compared with the regular ap- | propriations for schools and 10 reim-| burse the counties for personal property, tax collected, the money for which is heid | in the Treasury long after it has become | due and payable. ese obligations are | not, it appears, treated as ‘‘ drasts that | must be pr mptly met.” It is stated that | there is still due the public schools the | sum of $2 s00,000. Why is it not paid from the balance of $4,400,000 reported to be in the hands of the State Treas- urer? More than a million dollars was due to Philadelphia on school account for the year ending June 30, 185. On August 15th $150,000 of this overdue ac- count was paid, and on September 15th another instaiment of f150,c00 was re- ceived by the City Treasurer, leaving more than $700,000 remaining due, If the city nad this money it would be drawing interest thereon ; the State gets no in- terest on its balance of four to five mil- fion dollars, and this particular sum of $700,000 is, so far as the State is con- cerned, lying idle, while Philadelphia, to whom it belongs, is denied the use of it. The City Treasurer has endeavored to collect the money in larger instalments, but without syccess thus far. These are the bare facts” of the case, and they call for immediate action by Governor fast. ings, who was greatly concerned about the State finances during the session of the Legislature. He will find ona super- ficial examination of the State Treasury that the large balance due the State from banks, and nominally held that the State's obligations may be promptly met, really belongs to cities and counties on overdue accounts ; in other words that the obli- gations of the State have not been promptly met. He will find, moreover, that this large balance is widely distrib- uted in numerous banks, nine-tentks of which would not be selected by prudent business men as places of deposit as lon as much sounder banks existed. He wi find that the State draws no interest on the deposits, and that as a consequence there is no reason why the State should cany such balances at some risk when it might better use the money to discharge overdue obligations. And he must conclude from a general review of the situation that somebody has a personal interest in keeping these large balances, and that the somebody | maintains these deposits in banks of which the greatest number are obscure | or of poor financial standing, beca it | is just such institutions that are willing to pay interest on deposits, while the larger and stronger banks refuse to do | s0, especially to public officers who de- posit public monies. And if Governor Hastings should come | to this conclusion it is manifestly his | duty to require the State Treasurer to! reduce his balances by promptly paying | the overdue obligations of the State . i also to do what Shay lie in his power to | secure interest for the State on the de. posits allowed to remain in banks. It | may require action by the Legislature to | secure this last reform, but a Governor | who poses as an economist by his vetoes of appropriations to charitable institu- tions, and who sets himself up as a guide in the estimation of revenues and re- | ceipts, should not hesitate 2 moment about instituting such reforms, If he should do rothing more than secure the payment of $;00 ocoof s hool money lon, overdue he will transferihat amount Name or Winn on MiLL# AND LoCATION, | Norwich Mila Co, Norwich, Q4nn « .

Hardly had this high tariff gone into effect when the iron and woolen mills began to close down or cut wages. On December 6, 1890, the Bethlehem Iron Works were partly closed, putting 1,c00 men out of work, and the following month the wages of the remaining employees were reduced ten per cent. Then Carnegie Brothers started to reduce wages in their steel works at Home- stead, Pa., making a first reduction in January, 1891, and continuing until July, 18g2, when 3,800 men struck against another reduction of their wages, and there ensued terrible scenes of rioting and bloodshed. During the period of the McKinley bill's operation the militia had to be called out in four diferent States, and, with one exception (the Fall River Cotton Mills, which advanced wages less than ten per cent.), there was not in the whole four years a wage advance worth mentioning in any protected industry. Yet the Wil. son law has, in very many instances, restored wages. The Bethlehem Iron Works increased the wages of their employees from sixteen to twenty-one per cent in June, 1895. And on May 14, 18g5, Carnegie Brothers voluntarily increased wages ten per cent, The evidences are so plentiful that repetition is unnecessary in ordet to show the enormous boom that has in the same time attended the wool, cotton and pot- tery industries in various parts of the country, The following from a recent issue of the Wool and Collon Register may, however, be quoted “The number of new woolen mills has increased from seventeen last year to thirty-eight this year, an increase of over one hundred per cent.; while the num ber of cotton mills has increased from forty-three last year to seventy-three this year. The number of knitting mills has increased over last year nearly one hun dred per cent. It will also be seen that the list of enlargenients and improve ments is an imposing one." And later it says: “Our manufacturers are busy, many of them running overtime on orders, and prices realized on the whole show an advance over those of last year. Manufact urers as well as wage earners are doing comparatively well, and any attempt to present the situation in a different light arises either from ignorance of the actual facts in the case or can be traced to sinister purposes.” The renewed activity in the anthracije coal fields is known and appreciated by those in the counties affected. The miners whose wages depend upon the consumption of coal are obviously benefited by the new and improved conditions in manufac- turing and commercial energy. Coal miners who, under the McKinley bill, saw their wages steadily decline, now see in the prospect before them a restoration of their wages to at least the prices paid five years ago and steadier work. Of recent years, with closing mills and factories, and a great and continuous reduction ia the amount of fuel consumed, their opportunities for work have been rare and so spas- modic as to lead to the greatest uneasiness, Wages Swept Upward by Prosperity’s Rising Tide.
