..1111{#15UMT aztnoitser,
We print, this morning, the two laws
which cover all that our would•be Re
formers iocomplished in the We Legisia
tare. We invite the reader's attention
to a brief examination of their provisions.
First, of the Act of April lath. Its
first section raises the Treasurer's bond
town $BO,OOO to 1500,000. This very
well, although the old amount has been
found to be an ample security to the
State. The second section increases the
salary from $1,700 to $5,000 per annum.
This Is simply Jur* In itself, although It
is not exactly what the people expected
from the "Reform" party. The third
section prescribes some additional regu
lations in the Treasury bookkeePing, by
which the distinction between the sink.
lag firnd.and the general retinue Slide
shall be more exactly preestredi

is no imorovement ripen the previous
system, the fault of which- was that while
theoretically correct, the practice under
it was a systematic disregard of the
theory. In that respect, this later legisla
tion offers no improvement whatever.
By the fourth Kelton, the Sinking Fund
Commissioners, receiving the monthly
statements of balances, are requited, on
the Mat days of each of six specified
months, to "forthwith use the money due
them In purchasing" the outstanding
dtate debt, at limited market rates, and
to cancel the Dept r bought lin. On the
first days of each of the other six months,
they are to deposit thebalances In a Phila
delphia bank, "or such part thereof as
in their opinion will be sufficient, with
&earning balances, to meet the semi-annual
interest then next maturing;" if they then
have any money left, they are to expend
that residue, ai directed for the other six
months, In buying in the evidence' of
debt for cancellation. This ell ocks well.
it seam to nee tut the "unexpended bal
ance" In the sinking fund thoroughly.
Observe that, so fir, the "unexpended
balance" from month to month, in rho
getrranioanus, fa not tonoliectt So tar
the enactment le imperative; the Commis
sioners must appli i -half the lime, all the
balances to the immediate purchase of the
State debt, and for the other half, in the
same way, all that remains after the matur
ing interest has been provided for. Why
was this enactment, then, not suffered to
remain tmdistu_rbedt Why did this ',Re.
form" Legislature the very next day
enact another law repealing the imperative
feature of the drat Act; remitting this
business of buying in the debt to the
discretion of the Commisaioners—for they
must be lbs only judges of what 'the
condition of the sinktng•fnnd will Justify;
—abolishing the distinctions 's° prescribed
for one half and the other half of the
twelve months; effacing the limit of pre
mium which the first act had designated;
and not even insisting upon the prior
purchase of the loans earliest to mature,
except "as far as practicable?" The sec
ond section of the Act of Apra 14th, ef
fectually repeals the fourth section of the
Act of April 13th. Let the reader com
pare the two sections, and judge for him
self. These previsions are incompatible
In almost every particular. Either the
Let latest in date must govern, or neither
of them can be executed.withont a viola
tion of the other. No matter what
specific directions otherwise may appear
In the Act of the 18th, the law of the 14th
legalises the discretion of the Commis•
'loners, and remits the whole business to
that discretion to its tallest extent. Re
gardless of the several months, they are
"from time to time" to buy each debt "as
the condition of the fund will justify," -
they alone being the judges, "at such
rates as may be for the interest of the
Commonwealth," selecting their' pir
chasers "as far as practicable," all of
which, in every particular, confers a
discretion wholly forbidden by the law
of the day before,- and all of which,
moreover, restores the practice of the
Treasury to what it has been in all the
past . years before this burlesque of
I "Tressury Reform" was played for the
amusement and delusion.of the people !-
We proceed with our syrtopsis. The
fifth section of the first law requires an
nual statements from both the Treasurer
and the Commissioners, of their respec
tive monthly balances, of their respective
funds and of their transactions in the
public debt. This la well enough, bat it
can add nothing, in practice, to the Infer
cation heretofore annually given from
those offices. The -sixth section fixes
penalties for the non-execution of the
law. The seventh section requires the
Commissioners, in every mouth when in
fonds, to receive sealed proposals—for
which they need not advertise—for the
redemption of the next loan becoming
due, awarding to the bidden "such pm
lions and at such rate as can be paid
with advantage, or as tbeedndltion of the
Treasury may jestify." Here, every
thing is left discretionary again—in effect
precisely as under the previous system.
The eighth section orders the advertise
ment of 'monthly statement of balances,
of redemptions and the rates there
of, "with such other information ,
as they may deem proper for
the public." More discretion again
The ninth section requires the Commis.
stoners to keep on Ale a record of their
proceedings, and to report annually to
the Legislature ail bids for the redemp
tion of 'foam This looks well, but
practicelly amounts to nothing. The
tenth and last section demands from the
Treasurer a monthly report in detail of
all the amounts on band; in all fends,
where, with whom and how deposited, or
in vault, whether on call or otherwise,
and specifying what securities are held
therefor. It also exacts 'monthly report
from each bank, corporation or individ
ual, of the funds there on deposit with
them. Had this section also prohibited'
any exaction of interest on Such deposits
except for the benefit of the State, or
bad it expressly. required these deposits
to be placed on a rate of interest agreed
nponin each cane and to be credited to the
public fneidr, no minter what the Tress-
might privately mike also for himself, it I
could have been still more satisfactory.
As it stands, there is nothing In the sec
lion which adds one particle to the pro. I
existing legal prohibitions to the Treasurer
to reap any personal profit frOm the
interest on his deposits. We are merely
to know where the funds are; what is
paid for their use, if aught, will still
remain a secret between the Treasurer
and his depositories, which no law can
compel them to criminate themselves by
discioeing. These "unexpended bel•
'noes" still are to stand inexoended, and
for the emolument of any Treasurer who
inclines to follow the traditional practice
of violating the law by liking interest for
their use.
Now for the Act of April 14th, passed
one day later than this which we have so
fully examined. The fleet section of this
enjoins obedience by our financial
officer, to the legal-tender decision of
the Supreme Court. The second section
bag been already referred . to, and coin.
pared with the fourth eectlon of the Act
of the day before, which it "knocks into
the middle of next week," or even fur.
titer. It effectively authorizes the Com•
miselonen of Mei/linking Fond to con.
dune to do just what they have
been doing for years put. The
third section letsilme th e e k in g ()
but heretofore unauthorized prac
tice in the Treasury to borrow from
the Sinking Fund for the current uses of
the general Fond. The Worth section
abolishes the specific account of the half
milt tax. The filth section meats "all
acts and parts of sets inconsistent here
with or 'supplied hereby.. On the whole,
• very sensible law I Its first section has
nothing to do, even nominally, with
Treasury "Reform;" the secondreenacts
the 1.11;12114[os In force up to the 18th of
April, one day before, and which had been
then repealed; the third suppling the cover
of law to an illegal but unavoidable pric-
Me; the fourth simplifies the Treasury
accounts in a trilling particular, and the
fllth r crowning section of all, repeals and
wipes out most of the farcical and im
rid' load' propositkma which the "zing"
Lad made into another law only twenty
four hears before I
And this is What these folks term
' , Treasury Mortar- -Reform in what
MMZE===
respects ? Has the "unexpended balance"
been disposed of, taken out of harm's
way, put to work to earn something for
the State, its teeth drawn as an agent of
bribery and corruption ? Not The bal
ances all remain unexpended still, except
in the discretion of officers who had had the
same obligations and the same discre
tion for years before. Have we put estop '
to the bed practice of Treasurers in making .
usury for their own pockets, from the use
of the public funds by their favored de
positories ? No I The Treasurer can still
deposit with whom he pleases, on such
conditions es he still pleases privately to
make. He incurs no more penalties for
this practice than before. He Is mot by
no greater risks; he perceivei'ne stronger .
motives than before for shrouding his
privets operations in the smeary which
avoids and belles the eye of the law. Is
this "reform," which set about to make
our Treasury into a stock-johhing office,
where the incumbents, and their friends
outride, could bull or bear the securities
of the Commonwealth with that profit
able impunity which could not fail to
result from a precise knowledge, eiery
day, of what the Treasurer and the other
Commisdioners should intend to do the
next week in the redemption of the debt,
on bide which they could at their option
accept or reject ? Why, the simple place
ax confidential broker be the Commission
cr,koperating under the law of Apritleth,
in our State sefittrities, would be, itself,
an annual fortune, In its vast opportunl-
Les for personal emolument.
•Can any honest "Reformer," of old,
—Republican in his faith, tell us what
we have gained, vie the people, the State,
even the Republican party, have gained,
by this sort of "reform" of those tremen
dous abuses about - which each an uproar
was made in the Republican ears hat
autumn and winter? What has the Treas
ury gained? It is easy to see who has
gained something, and how much, but we
leok farther, and ask how it has all pro
fited the Republican orgatization, or our
tax-paying people of all parties. We

Tea Oil City Times says: During the
put week those wig: have visited Bra.
dy's Bend to inspect the new well which
is causing so much excitement in (Adorn,
are reminded of the early days In this
region, when fortunes were sunk and
made n a single day. We had thought
the days of excitement were -over, even
If there were more of the very largest
wells discovered, but It seems not, as at
Brady's leases and land increase in price
thousands of dollars in a single hour.
Ono farm of eighty acres was bargained
for at 140,2020, the money to be paid the
following day at precisely 2P. re. The
purchaser was ten minutes behind the
stipulated time, when the farmer refused
to comply with the contract. The same
afternoon he set his price at eighty thous.
and dollars and sold again. The second
purchaser was also behind a taw minutes
behind the time agreed upon when the
money was to be paid over, and be lost
the property. On the next morning the
firmer sold his eighty acres for $lOO,OOO
In cash.
Tau Pittsburgh Christian Advocate
gives the vote of slxtyfiva conferences
on the question of lay delegation. From
its table we learn that its vote stands as
follows : For, four thousand five hun
dred and fortpeeven ; against, one
thousand four -hundred and one; total,
Lire • thousand nine hundred and eight.
Senn conferences are yet to vote. Their
votes, - it is estimated by tho Advocate,
will be as follows: For, three hundred
and rdnety•two ; against, one hundred
and eighty. Bhould this guess prove to
be a correct one, the total would be four
thousand nine hundred and thirty.nine
for and one thousand five hundred and
elghty.one against lay delettatiori. This
gives the requisite three-fourths majority
and one hundred and ninety. six affirma
tive votes, the equivalent of sixty-five
and one-third negative Votes to spare. -
