NOTHING IN IT.
Objector Holtnun Will l orsako Politics in
N I uturo and Till tne mhi.
By ths United Press.
Washington. March 3. I wouia not
advise any young ntan," said the Veter
an Mr. Holman.-of Indiana, addressing
a group of congressmen on the floor of
the house this morning, "to enter pub
lic life. There is nothing In it. I reach
this conclusion after an experience cov
ering a period of nearly thirty-ilvo
years. From a financial standpoint, at
least, it does not pay one. I have
lived frugally since I first came to the
Thirty-sixth congress, but I have never
been able to buvo a penny out of my
salary."
You leave congress, then, as poor us
when you entered It?" Interjected one
of the group.
Poorer," replied Mr. Holman, with n
smile. "My farm of lOGuicres, which is
a few miles from Lawrenceburg, on the
Ohio hills, Is not worth as much today
as it was when I came here, while 1
have nothing to show for my long ser
vice." What are your plans for the future?"
I mj ill rod another of the Judge's audi
tors. "I shall go back to my farm and try
to make a living out of it. I hope I can
do that."
As a rule all the members of the house
will follow Mr. Holman's example of
returning to their homes with little, If
any, delay, after the adjournment to
morrow) ...

INDUSTRIAL TOPICS.
The coal trade so far as tho Heading
company Is concerned was nevnr brisker
than at the present time, Colllnrlmi ure
operating on full time, and Mnhnnoy nnd
(Ionian plimes are worsen on nnuiiio turn
Train crews are In demand to move the
scores of coal trains. The boom Is ex
peeled to last at least two weeks longer.
Philadelphia Inquirer: After fixing upon
an output for March of 8,.01pi tons thn
anthracite sales agents adjourned for a
month. There Is reason to believe that
before their next meeting the crisis In the
coal trade will have been reached. Prices
are steadily falling, and In another month
such a low level will be made that coal
will bo selling close to the actual cost of
mining an! delivery.
A rumor Is current at South Ilelhlehem
mom thos Interested that the lhlKh
Valley Hnllread company cnntetnplalo
moving tho Important o in cos to New t ork
that being the eastern terminal. That Is
the main freight, coal and passenger of
fices would be there. The view of many
suggest the advisability In the matter of
concentration and retrenchment. Whether
such a move Is contemplated by the man
agement Is no known.
Wllkes-llarre llonord: The new breaker
at th llllas mines at Hanover Is fast noar-
Ing completion. It Is now under roof,
The machinery Is being put In on an Un
proved plan. It will be ready for putting
coal through In a few months. The shart
Is down Into the coal, and gangways
driven to open tip the mines. The two
shafts at the Auchlneloaa mines, about
one mile west of Nantlcoks nnd a lit t lo
north of the Hllss mines , In Hanovur
township, are not quite driven to ths do
sired depth, but are being rapidly put
down. When these shafts are down the
work of rebuilding another breaker will
be commenced. The railroads across the
flats from the new shafts and over the
now bridge, near liutsbaugh's landing are
comDletod. anu win connect wttn tne Deiu
ware. Lackawanna and Western below
Plymouth, the mines being owned by the
iu company. The company; has alio
slope driven Into tho old Hanover mines,
nd gangwuys are driven to reopen tne
mines.
Rtni'klinhlor: That the monthly meet
ings of the anthraeito coal sales agents
are nollilna more nor loss than farcical Is
shown by tho statement of shipments of
anthracite coal for the week ended Feb.
23 and for tho month of February to that
date. Lust week's statement shows a
total of !K13,780 tons, an Increase over the
sumo period lust year of 3I4,UM tons. Tho
dilYerent companies started off the month
In a manner that Indicated there was a
imposition to restrict the output and live
uii to tho Agreement niadu by the sales
ugonts, but this improsslun wus dispelled
aftur the returns for the llrst full week
of tho month were Issued, and Bluco then
there bus been la steadyi Increase In
shipments, making tho ugKi'CKUte for the
tli-Ht twenty-threo days of February 2..SJ7,-
715 tons, an lucrense over the suiuu time
lust your of Mu.itfiS tons. The dully uvur
ugo for the twenty-three days Is lul.li'JD
ous, und. If continued to tlio end of the
mouth, tho February production equalled
about 2,Klfi,KK! tons, or considerably more
han Doo.tKH tons In excess of the unnieil
output. Thu uppended table "gives tin)

(AUTION
TO our patrons:
Vashburn.Crosby Co. wish to assure their many pat
rons thut they will this vcar hold to their usual custom
of milling S1RICTLY Oil) WHEAT until the new crop
is fully cured. New wheat is now upon the market, and)
owing to the excessively dry weather many millers are
of the opinion that it is already cured, uiid in proper
condition for milling. Washburn-Crosby Co. will take
no risks, and will allow the new wheat fully three
months to muture before grinding.
This careful attention to every detail of milling haa
placed Washburn-Crosby Co.'s flour far above other
' brands.
