Mil Sin.. kui v has made an interesting -iieriDiei!t as to the time required to print his Philadelphia .'.-' upon pa r direct from the tree. This is the record: Chopping one and a half cords i.f poplar wood, stripping and loading mi bou!, three hours; time consumed in manufacture of wood-pulp, twelve hours ; manufa.turinj pulp into patwr, five hours ; tranorting to otliee, one hour an.l twentv minutes; wetting t jn r preparatory to priutim;, thirty min utes printing jo,0i A'.r.e-',, ten minutes. Total time from tree to pa;er, twenty- two hours. Wim.K eiiain crack-brained politi cians are howliiig about an empty treas ury and a dirediied govcrment, the New York bankers who were in consul tation with Secretary Poster a few days since paid a high tribute to American credit by offering to take two percent, on their 4. Jer cent. bun. Is, n hich fall .liie in September next. They advised the Secretary not to pay off the ltonda, us that might produce a stringency in the market at the season it is most in demand, but to exteud them at 2 per cent, interest. When it is remembered that there is a tax of 1 per cent on National Hank circulation, the willing ness to accept '.' per cent interest on their bonds how that the government' credit is good at 1 er cent. Tn National iuard of Pennsylvania did itself honor on Saturday last, in un veiling a monument w hich it has erected at Norristow n in memory of its late coru mander. Major ieneral John K. Hart raufU Immediately after the death of iener al iiartranrt it was promised that the National liuard of this State erect a mon ument, to lie paid for by one-dollar hu1 jcTiptions from each member of the or eanization, no one lieing jer;nitted to contribute more than this sum. The proposition wn at once accepted, and iuietly and unostentatiously the work has been accomplished. This is a notable evidence of the esteem and affection in which ieneral 11 artranft was held, and is a significant tribute to the war, of this gallant soldier and modest gentle man. Pennsylvania had no braver son in the late war for the I'nion nor oue of more exalted fame and purer character than this model citizen soldier. In thus honoring his memory, the National 'iiiard of the State has honored itself. Tu tT good-old-time Democratic pr the liarrisburg ';rirf is having a little circus of its own with Governor 1'attison. Its principal diversion is poking fun at the Governor' pretension as a great economist and reformer. Says the 1'atrinl, in a reminiscent mood : liefore his first inaugural Viurernor Patti ;! said : "I am resolutely determined that so far as I can control the matter, my in auguration as tiovernor shall not cot the fssiple of Pennsylvania one dollar. Wby slmuld it? They derive no benefit from Mien seeix and l!ie money spent thereon is wauled." And then the cruel journal parades the fact that a few brief days sin.-e the iov emor signed a bill appropriating ('.,0(tO, "or so much thereof as may be nes sary," for inaugural expenses. Hut not content with thus showing up the incon sistency of the Governor in regard to his professions of economy, the Iiiril pushes its investigations still further, and quoting from the bills n ndere 1, allows that H,l7 .70 was expended for -goods,'' these goods having been bought I om dealer in wines and licjuors: thu throw ing a damper on the claims put forward by the ardent temperance advocate of the Governor. Then, in a Ssm of vir tuous indignation, the outraged journal, with it eyes in fine phrensy rolling, exclaims : What now do we aee A State treasury wrung (or funds, to meet its necessities, and '..5-N.7t) "wasted" without a protest, and of tun over m.i' nnt for "good." over on) tor "refrwibmeiitfc," the "guod" being wine wtiiKfcy or cijrais or all three, and the relmlunenui consisting of the Lord only knows hat. There is a ludicrous side to this and over that we may all laugh. Hut there is another side, a humiliating and shocking sid. That t.overuor I'attiaim, the constant and con spicuous advocair of purity in politim, de cency in the houhu'.d, temperance in liv ing, ee.jii .niv in imtMc expenditure, should compel the ftale to pay lor $l.Hj worth of whisky and cijr spent for hie own adula tion, is a amazing as ii is tnrt:fvinc. Sure ly, surely he mo -l have been beside himself when he siu'ied away this moner ! or if sane and waling, w here will not such waste lead to? f course, the I'tiir'uii w ill not le per mitted to enjoy thi circus all alone, and w e look to see the truly loyal defenders of the Governor enter the ring in defense, if not apology, of thi budding candidate for President. The attempt of the lenioerats to steal Connecticut ha come to grief. At the late election for Governor in that State the election officer in the town of Eran ford refused to count the ballots on w bi-h the word "for" preceded the title of the office, a Tor Governor," Ac, Ac Hy throwing out these vote a pretended majority of "ri was thus procured for Judge Morris, the Democratic candidate for Governor. The Supreme Court of the State, in an opinion written by Judge fcermour. who is himself a Demociat, and concurred in by all the other judge, ha just settled the question -the defeat of Judge Morris. In pursuance of their usual tatties, the Democrats had raised the cry that the Republican weie trying to steal the State ; but this decision oi the Supreme Court fastens the attempted crime on them. It was the Ieinocratic election officer who deliberately and criminally threw out the ballots for Gov ernor on which the word "for" appeared, by which they claimed to have a major ity for their candidate, Judge Morris. The res-u.lt of the contest is not only grati fying to Republicans because or me vic tory, but bemuse of the extiire of the rascality of the Democrats in tbeir at tempt to fteal the State Crop of trt Stat. Secretary Mpe, of the Slate Board of A g riculiure, has issued a bulletin from the May returns. The wheat crop of 1!H will be consider ably above the average for the past twenty year. The growth of straw is not as heavy as some crops which have yielded ! grain, but it will be above the average for the past ten years. Ou undrained and wet fields the con dition of the crops reduce the average con siderably. Owing to poor crops in Kuro the probabilities are that the Vnited States will be called upon to fu'nish at least 2f0,- OtaiM! bushels for Luropcan deficiencies. The indications now are that the crops of S'i will brir.p more money per bushel than that of iv or !":. The cop of hay has been shortened by the unukual dry weather of spring and early summer. Timothy w ill be fully op to the average of the pa.it twenty years. ICarly planted potatoes will lose much by the failure to eprout regularly, later plant ings will give a better crop. The crop ot 1;p will barely carry us over until that of Ix'Jl is ready for use, and the gap has been well bridged over by importations of early potatoes from Bermuda and the Southern States. Owing to short pasture the livestock of the state is hardly up to the average condi tion. Cows, not fed grain on pasture, are thinner than at this time last year. Feed ing cattle on pastures have not done as well as during averaj-e years. Horses, hogs and grain-fed anima'.s are up to the average con dition. The crop of apples will be fully up to the average; small fruits, except strawberries, mili prove a good crop; raspberries, black berries and small fruits ripening at about the same time will prove unus-ually large crops. Early che rries have been injured in s ime sections of the state ; late cherries will prove a fair average crop and sour cherries will yield better than last season. During the last twenty years the breeders and feeders of the slate have lost from $i"v tm to i .'f',' .) annually from outbreaks of Teian of splenic fever. Last week Secretary Kdge perfected arrangements in Pittsburgh at the stockyards by which the United Slates inspector there will prevent Southern and Texan cattle from mingling with other stock. Kach animal will be carefully ex amined and tagged, and if necessary it can be traced back to the herd in which it was fattened. Paying M'Klnley Prices. WshiK'-.to:, June 7. Contracts havejust been awsrded for Indian annuity and other goods and supplies, amounting to more than $-2iiO,(iO for the next fiscal year. These goods and supplies include thousand of woolen blankets, overcoats, suits of clothing, bh&wln and other woolen and worsted manu factures; tens of thousands of yards of denims, calico and other manufactures of cotton ; hundred;" of tons of unworked iron and steel and hundreds of tons of builders' hardware, stoves and kitchen and house hold utensils ; besides axes, ploughs, hoes and other agricultural tools and implements by the carload ; tons of beef, pork and flour and tens of thousands of bushels of corn, oats and other grain. Assistant Secretary Bussey has personal supervision of the letting of the contracts and has personally insected all the samples of goods to be fur nished hy the successful bidders. "Did yon psy McKinley prices for these goods T' aked a correspondent to-day. "Yes, of course," replied General liussy. "Well, how did they correspond with the prices paid lor like goods last year'.'" the correspondent asked. "For all mantif4Ctii''ed goods the prices were as low or a shade lower than last year; for beef, flour and other agricultural pro ducts the prices were somewhat higher." "Could you buy woolen goods as cheaply as you did last year before the Tariff bill be came a law ?" "Yes, and the quality of the goods Is bet ter. For example, eight-pound woolen blankets last year cost the Government and the Indians $3 3G a pair this year they will cost $3 31 a pair. The same contractors who furnished them last year were the successful bidders this year, and the samples were as good or better than those oflS:i. The blankets will slightly overrun eii'lit pounds a pair. This year we get g.Hd. serviceable overcoats, well lined and made, at $.". 80 each, and other kinds of clothing in propor tion. In fact, all manfactured goods, in cluding woolen, cottons, boots and shoes, leather, iron andsh-el and hardware of every description evert hi ng in fact costs a little less than last year." And so it apiears that "McKinley prices " in June, even for woolens, are cheaper than the price of last June, before the new Tariff bill had passed Congress, and when free traders and their newspap;r organs wenp loudiy proclaiming that it never would become a law. They were false prophets then ; lster they were something worse. What are they now? Perhaps they will have the effrontery to contradict the state ments of General 15u-sev. 'Grant, Our Citizen.' tiALEXA. 111., June 3. A heroic statue of General Grant was unveiled here to-day with imposirg ceremonies. Ths statue, which is the gift of H. 11. Kohlsoat, of Chi cago, stands upon a solid base of gray and red granite, upon the face of which is the simple legend in large letter", "Grant, Our Citizen." Governor Hoard, of Wisconsin, prevnted the statue to the citizens of Ga lena. Chauncey M. Depew, of New York, was the orator of the day. In closing his ad dress Mr. Depew said : "Mo-t reputations re forgotten by the succeeding generation, nd few survive a ceutury. In our thou sandth year as a nation the only statesmen or "oldiers of our first hundred years whose names will decorate the celebration will be Washington and Hamilton for the begin ning, Webstsr for the middle period, and Lincoln and Grant lor the close." What Eas'.ern Farmer Want. Moti'ELiix, Yt., June C The Vermont Farmers' Ieagu is discussing ways and means of promoting the growth of the State. Hon. George T. Powell, of New York, Presi dent of the National Farmers' Icague, was the chief speaker of the Convention. He said he was not an advocate of a farmers' political party, but he wanted ballot reform nd the cessation of class legislation. The far men of the Last, he said, were utterly op posed to the free coinage of silver and to the sub-Treasury scheme promulgated at Cincinnati. The Cood Time Coming, New Yobk, Jotie V The Executive Coun cil of the American Backers' Association consists of tenty-one bankers, representing a'J sections of the Lnited States, each of whom is prominent in his section. After comparing notes, the general opinion of these grn'iemen was that the present year promises most bountiful barvest. The wheat nd cotton and all other crop are in an unusually promising condition. The export of gold is not regarded as alarm ing. The ability to meet these drafts must increase confidence in the I'niuJ Suite investment and create renewed demand for them at an early day. Earthquake Continue. Rowe, JuneS Advices from BaiiaCal avena and Tre?oan?e, two of the towns in Northern Italy that Were visited by the earthquakes yesterday, show that the in habitant are terror-stricken and have taken to the fields for safety. The authorities are exercising every effort to alleviate the distress among the people, and bav furnished a large number of tents to shelter those who have flYd from their homes. The subterranean rumblings continue, and occasionally lighter bock than thofe of yesterday are felt. The people are in dread of ruementarily seeing the earth opening and swallowing them. The damage done at the two place men tioned is much greater than was indicated in the first reports. The town 5 were practi cally destroyed by the severity of the shocks. A commission apointed by the authorities to examine the hou-es whicb were not thrown down by the undulations of the earth have made a hasty investigation, and report that at least three-fourths of the houses are in such condition that public safety demands that they be pulled down entirely. Large bodies of troops have been dispatched to both places to -ist the au thorities in clearing the streets of debris, in tearing down dangerous hou-9s, and to render such aitanre a they may be called on to give. Swift Retribution. Swift retribution overtook a murderer as he was lleeing from the scene of his crime in West Dedham. Mass. At a late hour last Tuesday night the dead body of Miss Mary Emerson, spinster, seventy years of ae, was found in a closet in her isolated farm house. Finger mark.- about her throat showed that the old waraan was strangled, but there was nothing about the premises to show a motive for the crime. A German, who had been employed as a frm hand, had disappeared in a most unaccountable manner, and sus picion naturally rested upon him. At 5 o'clock yesterday morning the drawtender on the Charles River bridge undertook to investigate the cause of some disarrange ment of the cogs upon which the bridge moves, and found Uie body of a man crush ed out of all semblance of humanity. The shapeless mass was carried to the morgue, and later the clothing wat identified as that of the missing farm hand, lor whom the Dedham police weie searching. It is believed that he walked from West Dedham, a distance of about twelve miles, during the night, and af the approach of daylight crawled under the bridge to escape detection, surmising that the police would be on the lookout for him. When the bridge is closed there is comfortable room beneath the bridge, but when the draw is opened this space is entirely filled by the draw. He bad not taken that fact into consideration and met a horrible death. That Harrison Pension. WashisoTos, June C The commissioner of pe nsions was to-day asaed for a state ment in regard to newspapers dispatches from Chicago concerning the pension claim of Mrs Elizabeth T. Harrison, widow of the President's brother, Archibald J. Harrison, lieutenant colonel of the Twenty-seventh Indiana volunteers. These stalesmenta set forth that the pension was granted upon the declaration that lieutenant Colonel Harri son's death resulted from consumption, which he contracted while serving his coun try in the field ; that the claim was forward ed to Washington and placed on file in the pension otliee early in President Arthur's administration, and though it was backed by General Harrison and many other politi cians of note the commissioner of pensions refused to allow it. Commissioner Ilaum asserts that the jen sion was not granted until now because the chain of evidence was not completed and produces a letter of Pension Commissioner Black to sustain bis assertion. Stole Hi Own Boys. Jersey CtTV, June s. Lester L. Bristol1, of Jersey City Heights, has been missing from home since Saturday morning, with his four young sons, Louis. William, Dexter and Harry, aged eleven, nine, seven and five years old resectively. Bri-toll is an expert electrician and machinist, and has been e.nployed for twenty year by the Del aware, Lackawanna A Wt-lern Bailw.iy Company. Despite the fact that several of the best detectives in the city ha-e been hard at work on the ca-e since Saturday, no trace of either man or boys has been found. Suierintcndent flosener, of the D. L. v W. Co., received his resignation at noon. It was written in Mich a rambling way that it apprared to Mr. Rosener to have been written by an insane man. Mrs. Bristoll, the mother of the boys, is almost distracted with grief. She says her husband has been studying over an electric patent for several months, and she fears his mind is under mined. She denies that there has been do mestic trouble. Mr. BrMolL Sr., says he can only account for Bristoll' nctions by the theory of insanity, and he greatly fears for the safety of the children. Sending Back Paupers. Washington, June 4. Assistant Secretary Nettleton to-day directed the return of two Italians and one Swedish immigrant to their respective countries. These immigrants ar rived in the t'nited States in January last. but have since become paupers, and under the new immigration law can be returned at the expense of the steamship company which brought them to the I nited States. This is the first order of the kind issued by the Treasury Department, and indicates the vigor with which the new law is to be en forced. The cases were submitted to the President before final action was taken by the Treasury Department. Circulars were sent to-day to all the steam ship companies calling their attention to the provisions of the Immigration law and staling that every section will be vigorously enforced. A Human Pincushion. York, Pa., June 8. Lillie Miller, daughter of Henry Miller, of this city, died to-day af ter suffering with a peculiar malady that for a time battled the physicians. The young woman was a stimstress, and wore very tight-fitting habiliments. She had a habit of sticking pins and needles in herdres. Many of the needles and pins worked their way into her body and came out in the upper part of the arm and body. She had been frequently requested to ab stain from the habit, but she had continued it so long that she unconsciously stuck the pins into her clothing. The deceased was about 2.) years of age and had continued the habit for the past three year, until it resulted in dropsy and blood poisoning, which finally ended her life.
