THE SOUTH PENN IS A CO.
TH Board of Dirvctors to Mfeet Soon
to Decide Upon the Details
of Construction.
The Sooth Penn lUilroad emerges from
tbe gloom and oncertainty of iu lesa! en
tanfcteroenla this week into tbe forefront of
priubin-r at-tivity. tr. Hoeteiler, ooe of
tbe leading stockholder, ia borne from along
snjuum in tbe wa lor tue beneilt ol his
beaitb. mucb improre-i, and is aathor'ty fur
tiie statement that a meeting 'if the director
will be beid as yon as Andrew t'arueyic re
turns borne, in Se;temljrr or October, at
least, to arrance Uit the constim-lion of the
road. It was learneil from equally autbeniic
aoun that tbe meetin-ra of directors will
begin in September as early as possible. All
la favorable for an immediate start from a
financial standpoint. It will besbown at tbe
next meetin' tb at tbe entire road can be fin
ished ay, for iH.0ou.000, because tliere is so
much work done. Up until tbe ut-nsiou
of ooerariona some years ago &.)X'J0 bad
been expendnl on tbe tunnel:, rood bed, etc
T1- ati-rued interest on this is about fl .'.
J. These uius rejires-e-nt tbe proj-osed is
sue of common stm k. For tbe $J.Ci.i of
preferred atoi'k and il-J.L'.iJ bonds cash
has been paid down. After ill.C-i has
been ud ot fr eons; ruction, ..".'.. will
be left in tbe treasury te aid in buying roll
ir.g stork, and o-eraliiij; expenses.
So Lit advanced is the financial status of
tite enterjrise tbat details in tbe work of
construction are now being ta!k?d abont. It
is reported in railroad e'reies tb: week tbat
Tbomas M. King. laieS.-cond Vice President
of tbe Baitimore A tiio, is to be bjom---l
for Vice President and (ieneral Mna2-r. on

mctil plans of the r I in the engineers of
fice at llarrijburg. J These plans were skill
fully drawn to start with. Then as each tun
nel or portion of a tunnel was cmuplettd the
same was tintei i:i cpou the othi.e maps.
There was not a ruiie of excavation but
wiiich was imlitatcsl by the tinting process.
Then, a3 the work progresseil, the engineers
ket track of every toot of it. and now they
can take np the job at any point where it
was left off. Stockholders need not stage
coach a mountain w ilderness for a week to
find out what lias been done. A five-minute
inspection of the map will give satisfaction.
The direct.,- are figuring on a greatly re
duced cost for the nail. This is because ma
terials are ch-per rtiw than they were
when the first work was done years ago.
Tiie difference in the pric: ofteel ra.ls alone

Democratic Convention
Notwithstanding the great amount of chin
music indulged in by the warring Uftions
Kr several weeks previ.e.is to the meetir.ir.
the Convection which convened in the
Court Hisuse Taes-lay afternoon of last week,
was a tame and spiritless atfoir. Akhmigh
tiie Fisher men had made several converts
since tle hist conveniion and were able to
muster twenty-turte dtiegatcs, they were
stall in a hopeiess minority, and the Cof-i'rotb-rhl
crowd organixed the meeting and
run Tilings to suit themselves, totally ignor
ing the minority faction and acting as though
there were no one present not in perfect har
m.my with tbe two big Bosses.
' Cl.arie F Chi was made Chairman of. ti.e
convention and his brother, John H. Chi,
was elected Chairman of the County Com
mittee. A. F. John, of Meyer- hue. was
made s member of tbe State Committee.
The following candidates were then set op
to be bow ied down, by abont 3i majority,

The Surplus and Revenue.
Iu tbe July number of tbe .V-vta Jamnis
Recent I -a lore Eaynor, IH-nracralic member
of Ojmrress deSnes the policy of bis party oo
tbe question of the snqIos and the iweaoe
He says :
" Tbe lemomtic party is irrevocably
pled;ri to tbe prc-posiuoa that tbe surplus
most be reduced by a reduction of taxation,
and tbe greater part of the redaction must
be ni.ule by reducing the custom boose du
ties."
The proposition to reduce the sorplus by a
reduction of custom boose duties, while
there remains an internal revenue, is tome
thing new in American politics. Sever be
fore d'd any party have the audacity to make
such an unnatural and un-American propo
sition. Every fair-minded persoQ will ad
mit that the redaction of duty on any arti
cle imported from other countries, below the
protective point, will only increase the rev
enue A tariff for revenue only brings more
money into tbe treasury than a .rotective
tarirT. We take wool as an example. In
lv3 there were i. WX2-I1 sheep in tbe flu
ted Stales, yielding iW.3oOJU pounds of
wool. The same year we imported wool to
tbe value of ??,il3.149, on which a duty was
paid amounting to tbe sum of $3j5a.31.
Tbe duly wae redttced nearly one-half by the
revision of the tariff of 1S3 and in tbe year
1 vT there were left in the United Slates only
H,7.314 shetp. This year we imported
wool to tbe value of I i.-'o'J.itvj on wbich was
paid a custom bouse duty of frvWliS. Tbe
reduction on wool in has annually add
ed to tbe surtlus several millions of dollars
more than if the hieher duty bad been coo-
tinoed. .ShouM a similar rediKtion be made
on iron and steel, tbe surplus would son be
J omie enoruiiMU). The on!y way to d:mini?h
I L.ie sur)-lus is to repeal tbe internal revenue
tax. or otherwise enlarge tbe free list.
There is no just rea-son why the surplus
should not be reduced according to the Re
mliican plau by a reduction of the duty
on domestic articles. In an internal tax
was collected from the people to meet some
of tbe pressing necessities of the government
occasioned by the war for our independence,
but it was repealed as soon as the custom
-
ernnierit. Ia lU an internal tax was arjin
,
asteed to meet some of the extienses of the
war of but this. too. was repealed in
lsl-j, wuen t:ie revenue denveu trim im-
i.rts met the demands of tbe pweniment-
'Kn this time up to the war of ls.ji-i
, j
''n'
tides
as no lax assessed upon domestic ar
but the war of the rebellion again
made it necessary to raise motley fnjm
sources otlier than custom house duties.
After tbe close of the war the Republican
party reduced the interna! tax by striking
from the list of taxabies. from time to time,
such articles as seemed to be most generally
in use. tlicrety making tbe burden as light
as possible to the poorer classes. In 1"M but
tw articles remained subject to taxation
whiskey, beer, tobacco, etc.
I'uria trie campaign of 14 the Is-ruo-cratic
irty did pledge itself, as stated bj- Mr.
i ILiyner, to retluoe the surplus, or at least
! not to permit a further accuniulotion of tie
same. At tliat lime there was not much of
i a surj 'us in the treasury. Mr. Cleveland
! however, says that there was a surplus of
j a!'Ut 1s.hi.'.j0. but hecounteil in this sum
i tiie money inteudW tr the rvdemptiou of
! stiver certificates. The Iemocralic party lias
1 i i object iu not removing any part of the
internal UX, and their object is tw.fold and
,jirt. aoparent.
A reduction or repeal of our internal tax
es would disband the w hiskey ring. Every
sensible man knows that it is tlie dutr on
whiskey that f(eds and sutaina this ring. It
is further known that this ring contributes
Unrcly of its unjust gains to the Democratic
campaign funds. This ring wants hiith
whiskey atid low license. I; was this ring
that made Governor Hill. of New York, veto
tlie high license law pusee-i by a Republican
legislature, last winter. It did the sume in
the State of Xi-w J.-rsev. The whisker rir.g

Wool having beeo placed on the free list by
a vote of the House, bes.'dis some other arti
cles that can be successfully and protirably
loanara.-tured in this country. If by any
means the surplus is malerioliy reduced it
would take tlie milk out of the Piemocratic
xCoa:.ut. The pretext lor tree tra.le would
be measurably destroyed. The surplus is
rwrarded as a dangerous faetur. esperally by

they don't nndercstir.iate their income.!

tieneral Harrison since tbe extraoniioary
fiurry immeiiately sox-ceeding tbe nomina
tion. Two delegatioa from tbe t-iaieof It
liaoo arrived very nearly tocethera!ct one
o'clock. rZx-Cotigresman Iavtt Little, cx
meniber of tlie National ncpublican Central
Committee, was one of the lights among the
visitors. There came with him persons
from Springfield, and deiesatiocs frcm Mou
ticeUo, Decatur and Jacksonville were pres
ent. The Harrison Home Cab, with s dram
corps, escorted tbe visitors to the Ecnnison
House, where they took dinner. j
General Harrison met them at 2.3b ia the j
hotel corridors. Attorney General Hunt ad- j
dressed him in behalf of the visitors in an i
eloquent and leeling speech, to which tbe '
General responded in a somewhat broader J
pbuse than any utterance be has yet male. j
He referred to Yates and Morton, to Lovjoy. j
to the debate between Douglass and Lincoln j
and to Grant and Logan, and then adilrd :
"As Americans and Eepubiitans we are
giad that Illinois has contributed so nutny
and such conspicuous names to tl.at galaxy
of great Americans and great Ipublican
names tlat has been w ntten on tie scroll of
I . , ,
eternal cinie. I coitsraiulate you that there
has come out af the early agitation, out of
the work of Lovejoy the disturlr, oat of !
tlie great iletiaie of IVv1, and out of the war i
for the Union, a nation without a slave, and '
that not only the shackles of slavery have '
been broken, but that the scarcely bs miel ;
stiack:s of prejudice which biind every
black man in tbe North, have also been un
bound." He was glad to know tbat the enlightened
sentiment ot the South to-day uui'es with
us in our congratulation that slavery has
been abolished. They have come to reaiiie,
and many uf their best and greatest men to
publicly express tbe Lbouaht, that tlie aboli- j
lion of slavery has opened a gateway ot j
progrs-ss and material deve!opni-nt to tbe !
South that war forever closed against her j
people while ilimotic slavery exi-teil.
"We send them the assurar.ie t--ttiy. he '
said, "that we desire ttiat the strcsrus of ,
their pnoperity shall dow bank full. We
j would lay upon tl'.ese people no bur-Sen that
we da not willingly bear ourse.'v.s.. Thy
will not think it anus- if I snv that the bur-

Tbe General's words were received with

accompanied by a fine band, and carried an
