3 Our distinguished neighbor over the
way is decidedly the scariest uian wc ever
heard tell off. Two weeks ago "knix wisser
i m" and 'The School Qeston" were the
matters which ruffled his pin feathers. Last
week it was "prim v issued war," which
shook its "hoary locks" before his eyes.
And it is President Grant who is doing al:
this. Neighbor, neighbor, don't be so scary.
It, is not an old soldier, and one accomplished
in that line, a3 even you yourself will readily
:tdinit, who is going to plunge the country
iuto an unneccseary war. Now we ain't a
bit scared and and you need not be. We
don't want to go to war with Spain and
Spain has no idea of going to war with us on
the Cuban question or any other. We know
and you know that the Cuban Patriots have
long been favorites with the Democracy
ostensibly, or rather, pretendedly, and if that
party could have plunged the administration
into a war and thus brought reproach upon
it that would have been accomplished long
flo. The administration, however, has a
real desire for Cubau liberty and will, and is,
leaving no stone unturned to secure that end
l y peaceable means. There is uo telling
v.hat may turu up no forte'iing the future
but the aJunoistratiou is for peace with all
i:atious, and is doing nothiug to interrupt
that peace. If, however, war should come,
through the acts of Spain or Mexico una
toned for, the hero President will prove no
ways slow in maintaining the honor of ow
ing and the rights of humanity. There is
i' telling how far Democracy may go towards
frustrating the desires of the administration,
for peace, but let Democracy keep hands ofl"
and we feel safe in assuring our neighbor
that there will be no need of trips to Switzer
laud in search of theologic lore.

The Monroe County Bank, we are inform
ed, will be murged or changed into a new
banking and savings company on the 1st of
February next, to be entitled "31onroe Coun
ty Banking and Savings Co." This change
is not in any way to interfere with the depos
its and loans made by the Monroe County
Bank, as all the loans made by that Bank
up to the 1st of February next, will be settled
un on maturity, and it will do no business
after that date except to settle up its old ac-

counts. And this will le very reaauy e net

to manage the new banking company.
The paid in capital, wc learn, of the new
Banking and Savings Company, is fixed at
.... .
$50,000. This sum the company can in
crease at their pleasure.
The gentlemen connected with the new
Banking Company, we are informed, are,
Charles Fetherman, Hon. lv. b. ttaples,
Thomas A. Bell, Hon. Charles V . Uecker,
of New York. Mr. L. is going to fix up the Dr j. jjaUtZf Thomas D. Stites, George E.

The Company was organized last Saturday
by the election of the following named gen
tlemen ns directors for the ensuing year :
Charles Fetherman, Richard S. Staples,
Thomas A. Bell, Dr. Lantz, and George h.
Stauffer.
Thomas A. Bell, was chosen as President,
Charles Fetherman, as Vice President, and
Wm. B. Bell as Cashier.
The above Company is organized under
an Act of Assembly which makes each one
of the Company responsible to the full
amount of his wealth to the depositors. 11

broken banks would soon be out of date.
All depositors have a right to know that
their deposits are secure, before making them.
We have been told that the object of the
old bank in making the above change, was
GOVEilXOR IIAKTKAXrT.
Tt must be particularly gratifying to Gov.
Hartranft, and his thousands of friends all
over, that his recent message meets with uni
versal commendation Democrats vieing with
Republicans in their expressions of praise ot
it. But how could it well be otherwise, as
the message is but a truthful history of a
most successful state administration an ad
ministration based upon honesty of purpose
and an inflexible determination to make every
consideration secondary to the best possible
good of the people, which called it into pow
er, and after a term of trial, rewarded it
again in kind for meritorious services.
Among the matters for which the message
is particulaily notieable, that which relates
to our State finances is probably the most
important. This the reader will have read in
tlve extended synopsis which wc published
lavt week. We cannot, however, refrain from
noticing one or two of the most important
Matters broached more by way of a remin
der than fur any comments wc have in view
to make. Indeed comment would be out
of place, after the full and free discussion
indulged by the Governor. But a most
gratifying point made and established by the
Javernor is the large reduction in our public
debt during the past year $1,335, 4'J7. 03.
This in view of the remains of the panic of
1ST3 still lingering among us, and in view,
also, of the fact that it was accomplished
without placing additional burdens upon the
people is, indeed most gratifying. It i
doubly gratifying as showing that notwith
standing the charges of venality and pecula
tion so liberally heaped upon the Governor
and the party, by the opposition, during the
recent campaign, the results all show that
the policy of honesty arid economy in the
management of the State finances inaugura
ted at the advent of Republicanism into
power, remains to this day as inflexible as at
t he beginning. It furnishes a most damag
ing comment upon the rapacity, vituperation
aud falsehood upon which the opposition
hoped to ride into power during the recent
campaign, but which the people, in their
great wisdom decided most emphatically
should not be.
Another of the good points taken by the
Governor is that foreshadowed in his asser
timi of the neccssitv for cutting down all
needed appropriations to the lowest possible
figures, and the forgoing of all not necessary.
We mu.-t be just before we try to be gener
ous, is a maxim of moment for States as
veil as for individuals, and the Legislature
will do well to pay heed to the suggestion.
Last winters appropriations exceeded the
year's receipts from all sources fomc $500,
000, and as in the reduction of taxatiou this
sum will be doubled hy way of deficit, there
must be a corresponding reduction in Legisla
tive liberality. This must become the rule
or increased taxation will become an absolute
necessity. This the Governor justly and
righteously deprecates, and wc much mistake
the temper of the man the stamina cfthe
statesman if the contrary course, on the
part of the legislature does not meet with a
most emphatic veto. Governor Hartranft
dare go to any length to secure the right,
and it is equally certain that he dare go as
far to prevent a wrong.
Altogether there is much cause for con
gratulation over the re-election of Governor
Hartranft. His administration will prove
no untried experiment, having as it does such
commendable antecedents as a continuous
redaction of the public debt, continued reduc
tion of taxation, conUuued economy in every
department of the Government and inflexible
honesty as the prompters ot every act and
deed. In view of these facts, and in view of
that other fact that the message is a true re
flex of the administration in its every act.
wecaucheerfuliy unite with our distinguished
neighbor over the way in saying that
"altogether the message is a very fair paper,
being free from political claptrap end self
auiulation." We could even join him in
more than this, but rest content with even
this inu'.h of justice from a source wherein
'j ue justice' is no rare a commodity.
