J The Somerset Herald. EDWARD 8CULL, EJitor and Proprietor. WEDKESDAT- We are no enjoying the best of Dem ocratic times. How do you lite tbem ? The Wilson bill Uoci"1' entitled " Li!I to reduce taxation, to provide reve nue for the Gcverrxent," and yet it in creases direct taxation and won't raise revenue. It should justly be called bill to increase the public debt and pau perize labor. Jiw watch and eee the Geveland cuckoo orgaca jump with both feet on the comoiUBioners be sent to Hawaii to do hi dirty work, and try to pile bis blunder on their shoulders. Already several of them are demanding the re call of V illis. The farmers are now beginning to "get it in the neck." Bitter, egs, poul try and similar farm products are now ranked as luxuries by thousands of hith erto weli-to-do workmen who purchased tbem, and consequently the bottom hts dropped oat of tbe market in mort man ufacturing cities and communities. If evidence is needed to prove that the Ethiopian cannot cL.-age Lis tkin, Lor the leopard bis spots, reference may be Lad to the threatened nullification cf John C. Calhoun, the constitution of the Confederate XHe, and the policy of the present Administration. Hostility ti protection of American industries was and is the spirit pervading and control ling the democratic party. evei: heretofore was a National Ad ministration in the zenith of its power so raJelv flapped in the face by its parti sans. The nominations of Hornblower as Justiceof the Supreme Court, and of Harrison f r Surveyor of Customs, Kan sas City, Lave both been rejected by the .Senate, the wool schedule in the Wilson bill Lss been defeated by Democrats in the House, and witbeat a friend in eith er House that dare defend the Hawaiian irii.jn-.ty, the humiliation of the Admin istration is complete and overwhelming. Demoiiit:c .w-ji'.e;men profess to be laboring in the iutereat of the toilers m hen they inbist ojon free coal, free iron ore, free w ool, and greatly reduced rates on ali foreign imports, but we do obferve the workmen of the land tumbling over each other in their desire to grasp these lilt-ssinss nor of petitions b"ing forward ed to Congress prijir g for the speedy ar rival of the promise J day of free trade juiiHte. On the contrary, thousands of them ere reiterating the quaint and brief prayer of the devout old colored woman " jood Massa Lord, please shake jour tab.eloth this way." Soctdeks orators are celebrated for their gush, their cheek, and their utter disregard for historical facts, buf. here is alitllegera from the inaugural adlress of Col. OTarrell, the new iy elected Gov ernor of Virginia, that "takes the rag off the bush :" Virginia Las never gwerved from the lighted way of the Constitution; the song oi the siren has never tempted her ; the tongue of flattery has never seduced her ; the voice of the hyena has never fright ened her ; the menace of tyranny has never terrified her; the howlings of the wolf have never disturbed ber ; the threats of malice Lave nerer alarmed ber. Firm and immovable she has stood in all the years that have run their cir cles since she gave her pledge to be true to the fundamental law of this land. Great Soott ! ! Where was Virginia durin;; the late war? The anti-Harrity wing of the Demo cratic party in Pennsylvania has not only determined to put an independent candidate for Congressman -at-large in the field, but it will contest in the courts the validity of the nomination of Mr. Hancock, the regular nominee of the State Convection. It is asserted that a Dili in Equity if being prepared protesting against the le gality of Hancock's nomination on the grouud that the State Convention which nominated candidates for State Treasurer and Jud,j9 of the Supreme Coa t ex bausted its powers when it performed that duty, and that it bad no authority to re-convene for the purpose of nomi nating a candidate for Cocgressman-at-laiye. Whether or not the court declares the nomination illegal matters but little, so far as the result of the election is con cerned, as be is already defeated by ma ny thousands, and we refer to the mat ter only to show the divided and dis cordant condition of the Democracy in this State. Cou Joiix C. Bl.K'E, present member of Congress fiom Illinois, whowa9 Com missioner of Tensions during Grover Cleveland's former Administration, in the course cf the tariff debate a few days siiu-e, said : If I were certain that na jies nere hi-fmr fore I uo-JJ to rvyi-i tfo'C lues nkk make Vi3fi Kigh.r, an! t -till Id fiy, t hat their u-i'ural h'tvV "Then you are in favor," asked Mr. Ileed, "of an equality of wsges between this country and other countries?'' That is not a fair way to put it," sai d Mr. Clack. " But I am ia favor of remcc inyali orlificlal ihequ'il' t thul crmtiafe Viiout rabic of vrapi f, and of leitinj vage lire thdr nn'ural i. rtV How do the wage-earners like that lin' cf doctrine, coming from one of the prominent leaders of the Democratic party T This is eld, old Democratic doc trine, snd carries us back to the days of resident Buchanan, when that Slates rnan favored reduction of wages to the European standard, and earned for him f e'f the sobriquet of " Ten-cent Jimmy." How true is the assertion that, like the Bourbon?, the Iieaiocra's never learn anythicg nor forget anything. Hon. Galisha A. Grow opened Lis campaign as tue Republican candidate for Congresaman-at large, in the city of Lancaster, on Thursday cf last week. The meeting was a monstrous one and Mr. Gr.w was in his most felicitous icood. Among other topics, he took op the Democratic falsehood that a Repub iican Congress squandered the "surplus of over $IOO,000;000, gathered into the Titasary by a Democratic Administra tion." He conclusively showed that no law of any importance baa been placed upon the Statute books of the Nation by the Democratic party during the last t hirty years. The sarpl as of 1 100,000,000 which it is claimed Cleveland left in the Treasury at tbec'oee of bis first Admin istration was accumulated by virtue of Republican revenue laws laws which Cleveland is now seeking to overthrow, and that the surplus was "squandered"' largely in reducing the public debt, and in providing additional pensions, build ing np cur savy, Ac This record stands out in telling contrast with the record of the present Administration, whk-h in kes than year Las increased tire debt of the Nation one-balf as much as the surplus that exitted on March 4, Skuetiby of the Treasury Carlisle has called for bids for fifty millions of bonds, by the sale of which he hopes to replen ish the now almost bankrupt National Treasury. These bonds are to run ten years and are to carrr interest at 5 per cent., bat the Secretary has so fixed the premium at which they are to be sold that they will only yield investors three per cent. Bids will not be opened until February 1st and it will not be known until then hat rata the Government will be able to get for them. That they will all be speedily taken np does not admit of a doubt ; but here is the spectacle present ed to the country and to the world of this Democratic Administration deliber ately creating a deficit in the Treasury of more than $70,000,000 by throwing way our revenue through the instru mentality of the Wi'son free trade bill, and then resorting to the sale of bonds to make good the loss. No clearer dem onstration of the inability of the Demo cratic party to manage the finances of the Government could be given. When that pcrty was last in power under Bu chanan it so mismanaged affairs that it was compelled during a time of pro found peace to resort to a loan to carry on the Government, and now in the Erst year of its restoration to power it again has to resort to borrowing. The contrast between this state of affairs and that ex isting for the past thirty years when under Republican rule the immense war J"lit was monthly and yearly reduced .by many millions and the expenses of the Government provided for, needs no comment. It ie an object lesson thxtthe waj faring man, though a fool, cannot fail to understand. The Hawaiian Troubles, From the PliilaJelpnia RcorJ. (Dem.) It is ttattd on semi-official authority in Washington that lb: Administration id hereafter presrrve a strict neutrality in re gard to Hawaiian affairs. This is an excel lent resolution to begin the new year with, and the pity is that each a policy wa not pursued from the beginning. Intimations are thrown out that Minister Willis has ex mded his instructions in inviting the Pro visional Government in Honolulu to Men down and make room for Queen Liliuokaal ani. Unfortunately, there is, too much foundation for' the opinion that Jfr. Willis has acted in strict accordance with bis in structions in making this polite but by no means diplomatic or wise suggestion to President lkle and his associates in office. Their refusal to comply with this request in behalf of the dethroned yaeeu, which QigU readily have beea anticipated, is not calcu lated to inspire sentiments of reypect for American sialeiuaasliip and diplomacy. The people of this country da not doie on royalty. Nor are they apt to shed bootless Uars over the distresses of a tallen dynasty in the South Seas. Their surprise, therefore, was extreme when they faw their Govern ment ia Washingion engsjred in a move ment to restore the dusky ex-Q-ieen of Hawaii to a rule of which she had demon" s'.raud her unworthiness. If Liliuokalani were ten times s deserving of their tympa thies as sheU, her deseru are not such that this Government should have exposed them toiidicnle in her behalf by a diplomalic stroke which in in result bears a ludierou resemblance t J the denouement of a comic opera. The whole transaction looks as if it belonged to the imaginary land, to Cocagne, and not to this real world. Hawaii, with its ex-Queen, its missionary government and its sugar plantations, with Claus f pre kets thrown in, are not worth the reproach which this diplomatic fiasco bas brought npon the Democratic party and its Adaiini tra:ion. In the serious aspect of the business the question recurs : What r;?ht in internation al law and comity bad this Government to send an agent duly accredited to the au thorities of Hawaii to demaud or aik them to surrender their power into the hands of a deposed Queen? There was a rumor the other day that the credentials of Minister WiUis had been returned by the Provisional Government and that be was on board the Corwin in San Francisco harbor. That this is not true shows much more consideration on the part of the Hawaiian Government than on Lis own. But he should have re signed without awaiting such action on the complete failure of bis ridiculous errand. He should have resigned before leaving Washington rather than hare made himself the bsarerof a message which his knowied.e of public law must have taught him was alike unwarrantable and insulting to the Government to which he was accredited. As for exceeding his instructions, the mis fortune is that be did not conceive the wrorg and absurdity of obeying tbem. when Uncle Sam Speaks. From the Cincinnati Star. The hand was the band of Uncle Sam, but the voice was the voice of Urover, and whui it said, "Mr. Dole, come down," he came not Presenty a voice will say, ' Grover, come down," and he will not stand on the order of descent, but descend at once. It will be the voice cf Uncle Sam this time, and no mistake. By Nomination Papers. Pbilapelpuh, Jan. IS. The Republican City Committee bas decided, as a precaution ary measure, to have tbe name of Galisha A. Grow placed upon the ticket forCongress-man-at Lare by nomination papers. The Democratic faction known as the tn ti Democratic element, will test the legplily of the nomination of James D. Hancock on the ground that the convention being a re convened body the delegates did not have the power to choose a nominee, ilr. Grow was nominated nnder similar conditions, and should tbe selection of Mr. Hancock be d-c!ared illegal, the same decision would apply to Mr. Grow. WILL MARK THE SPOT Where Penn Signed a Treaty With the Indians. The committee of citizens in Indiana county appointed by the Board cf Public Groucds and Buildings to select a doin from those submitted to the Board for the Pecn monument, ia deferring its decision until it sets whether any aliiiioiial funds can be raised by subscription ia tbe sur rounding districts. The idea is to raise sufficient in this way for the foundation of tbe mono men t, so that the entire amount o' $1,500 appropriated by tbe last Legis lat-jre for this memorial can be expended on the monument itself. The status or stone will bs placed at Canoe Flase, in a small creek just at the junction of Indiana. Cambria and Clearfield counties. On ae count oi it being located in the creek, actual work cannot be commenced until March, and there m ill be abundance of time to try and raise further money. It will be impos sible to select a design nnlil this point is definitely determined, as the foundation work will be a very expensive item. An Increased Beer Tax. Wshi!to:, Jan. 19. Senator Jones of Atkansas said, in discussing an increase of the beer tax : "Beer is now taxed a dollar a barreL There are S2,' CO ,000 gallons of thie beverage manufactured in the United Slates. An addition of a dollar a barrel would realize about half tbe estimated diflcit nnder tbe Wilson bill if it became a law. I know that it is objected that it would not be politic to tax tbe loor men's bevenze, bat I contend that this increased tax would not affect the consumer at all. It would add only about one fifth of one cent a glass to the cost of beer, and it would, of course, be impossible to aid this amount to the retail price of the article. As a matter of fact, I am told that beer would cow be sold for one or two cents less thin it is but lor tbe difficulty of making change, and the objection that eiost people bare to carryicf ironies." THE CAMPAIGN OPENED. Crow Speake at Lancaster. LascasTEE. Ia., Jan. IS Galuha A. Grow opened his campaign for Congress at the court bouse in this city to-night before an audi nee that filled the spaciocs ball to overflowing, and which expressed its ap proval of bis views with unbounded enthu siasm. Hisaddress was devoted almost ex clusively to a resume of tbe workings of a protective tariff and tbe fallacy of the teach ings of free trade advocates. He refuted the charge of the squandering by tbe last Repub lican sdministration of $100,000,000 surplus left by Cleveland, by declaring that np to the present fistal year, for over 30 years, Cleveland's party had put no law npon the statute books. He deride! Secretary Carlisle's proposition to make np the deficit by borrowing on the national credit, and charged that the Wilson bill proposed to better existing commercial stagnation by opening channels of domestic consumption to the productions of tbe pau per labor of Europe. He condemned itb unstinted emphasis the action of President Cleveland snd "Par amount" Blount, in lowering tbe American flag in Hawaii, and declared the duplicity of tbe administration in "sending a minister, hat in hand, to pay his respects to the new government while concealing his secret in structions to restore a fallen monarchy" as an unparalleled piece of infamy and un patriotic action, which the American people would take care should never be allowed to be repeated. The attempt of the Democratic party to break down the national banking system by again setting np wild cat banks was also given attention. Penslone For Ex Rebels. The House Committee on Tensions, of which Mr Mosea, of Georgia, the chairman, reported a bill last Tuesday, with the view of admitting some more ex -Con federates to the asion rolls. Under the Mexican pen sion law which was passed during President Cleveland's first administration and which was approved by bira, every person who en listed lor the Mexican war, no matter if never within 2,0 miles of a battlefield, ia paid a pension. Under that law a large number of ex Confederates, including mem bers of Congress, are drawing pensions. That was a service pension bill. Cut a statute pasted after the war forbids the payment of a pension to any jeron who served in the Confederate army under any law that was in existence at U-st time. The Mexican ser vice pension act did not repeal that statute, but simply authorizc-d the payment of pen sions to all persons who enlisted for the Mexican war. The purpose of the bill which the Dem ocratic committee agreed upon Thursday is to restore to the pension roils the names of ail persons who were drawing pensions at the outbreak of the war, regardless of the fact of their disloyalty or service in the Con federate army, and also to allow any ex-Con-ftderate or his widow or orphan to draw pension for service preceding the Rebellion the same as if he had no', served in the Con federate army. Survivors of certain Indian wars have ai m iy been pensioned, but this is another move to increase the pension list for the benefit of men who served in the Confeder ate army. Tbe outcry against pensions on the part of Democrats applies only to Union veterans. They are in favor of increasing the pension rolls providing the increase goes wholly to the ex-C. nfederates. Holiday Cheer. The holiday season is close npon ns, and every household in the land is preparing for the plum puuui'if, and tbe general feasting and rejoicing A littie good brandy for the mince pie, rum for the pudding, or a litde stimulant to keep the spirits up and the cold out, is absolutely necessary lor au old time Christmas cheer.

IS Tom and Frank Mulli&s, who were implicated in the murder for which "Doc" Taylor was bangfd in Virginia six months ago, have been hid ing in this county several weeks. A reward of tJtKO was ouVred for their capture. Sheriff Johnson and Dr-puty Hall went yesterday to capture tL.em. ltoth sides opened fire with Winchesters. Sheriff Johnson was she t through the head at the first volley and Hall was knocked senteless. Neither of ti e Mullins were hurt. They left Hall for dead, and sat down in froiit of their cabin. Hail regained con scious'i?s, and without moving put a bullet through Frank Mullin's heart. The same instant Tom Mullins shot away nearly all of Hall's lower jaw, but not before Hall's second aim bad been taken, which sent a bullet through Tom's head. Hall cannot recover, and was barely all e to relate the story of tbe fifht. No Cumpulsory Education, Superintendent of Public Instruction ScLscnVr is quoted as saying that the time bas not come in this State for compulsory eduiation. He thinks the large cities are bardly able to hou-e all the school children they have now. He said : " There is no use to talk about cumpulsory education in the cities cr.lil an exact school census is taken and we Cud out just where we stand. " I sbaii probably ask tbe next Legislature to provide the way for ?uch a census to he secured. I am inclined to favor a plan sim ilar to tbe one in vone in Massachusetts, which allows the school directors to provide conveyances to take the children cf eparsrly settled regions to school."

Any foreign corporation sailing its manu factured goods in this state through travel ing solicitors will hereafter be compelled to file in the slate department a certificate set ting fourth the location of its ofSce and the name of i!s authorized agent in this state nn br the provisions of tbe act of April 22, 174. which requires ail foreign corporations to have an orEoe and authorized agent in his slate upon whom process may be served. Attorney General Her.sei bas just given Secretary Harrity a decision covering these points. Iu the opinion be says: A corpora tion of one slate cannot do business is anoth er state without the latter's consent, express or implied, ai:d that consent may be ac companied with such conditions as the latter may think proper to impose. A foreign corporation, so far as it exercises its franchises) in another state, is subject to its control." Monday, Congresrman W. A.

Secretary M rton ssys that 30,000.000 peo pie live on the 6,000,000 farms in this coun try. According to that there are nearly as many people who live on farms as there are people who dwell in cities and towns.
