A ii a:j-ii7.!:. public building bills

but we do not observe the much longed

that now holds the leoards. It is won
derful how many great Democratic fin

TllK life of this Congress has yet
twenty-seven working days to run.
Suppose iu that brief in-rind no bill

that the President is compelled to call

Dri;tNj the war I'ncle S-iiu was
able to Imrrow billion-, and his credit

ij.eiily dtvlaretl that "the debt would

-,mtrol it was being pai'l with a rapid
ity tiiat excited the wonder of the
world, and at the same time the coun
try progn-ss.-d ami prosjered as it had
never done liefore. Within a jieriod of
l.s than two years of Democratic con
trol we have stopped paying and gone
to W'lrowing, our credit has been so
impaired already that the country is
licing drained of its gold, and direct
taxatiou of the people has Uen resort
ed to to meet daily exicnses ; our in
dustries are prostrated, many thous

As aliticipatttl, the l'rcsident on
Monday sent s special message to Con-irr.-s
on the financial situation. The
jii-'sT.-re is etns rvative iu tone, and
f.-ankly admits the anxiety of its nu
t!nr over the deplorable sidititiu of
the National finances. The salient
p ii;t of the message are ax' follows:
An issue of bonds I tearing 3 jkt cent,
interest and running 5) years, redeem-
iii.h' principal and interest in gold and
in be Mold for gold only or its ctjaiva
ient, the ltonds to lx in denonii nations

With the proceeds of these binds a

ry to have the power at his discretion
to r tvive 'gold notes in pavnieiit of'

these .inls-:iii le deHsitil as sccuri-

amount. It is also suggested that the
duties on all imports lie made payable
in cold. In the present tuklisii situa
tion of the Treasury and the umlouht
1 impairment of the tbiver.iment's
4
credit it is a jwtrintieduty to adopt any
means to sustain National credit ami
honor, but it i? very d.iubtful if the
silverites w ill accept the sop offered
them in the proposed increased cin-u-
lation of the white metal and assist to
rescue the cuiitry from im!eiiling
bankn:jly. It is ims-1 deplorable that
the tiovcrnmeiit should thus liec im-i-Iliil
to add liianr millions to its
debt, when by a slight addition to the
duties on imports its coturs could be
lil!el ; but of such are the ways of our
present rulers. Democratic tinkering
wilh the revenues and finances of the
nation has brought us to that condition
where our income falls below our ex
penses, and the only remedy left is to
further mortgage n:r property for tem

II ARRisnrno, Pa., Jan. 5,ls:i."i.-Accord-ing
to the testimony of some of the older
mcm'iers of Imtli Houses, the work of our
Ia-gislature is further advanced at this
stage of the session than at any previous
one within their recollection. Four hun
dred and seventy-four bills have leen
read in place in the House, ami almost an
equal numlier in the Senate. Sixty-six
petitions and remonstrances have been
presented in the House 0:1 a variety of
subjects, principally on "Greater Pitts
burg" and a Pish and Uame Commission,
fine t of remonstrants are dead set
against "a salaried Game Commission
ami the farming out of our game and fish
to the sjHirts of the Commonwealth."
Perhajis thse remonstrants never could
get a bite nor draw a lead. Many of the
bills have Ihcii bnught out of committee
and read the first time ; others will sot 111
Ix- ready for the action of the I Governor.
The bill for the publication of the "I'.ird
Iiook" is likely to pass loth Houses in
spite of l lie fact that it ill cost the tax
payers the snug sum of SltfO.Oou, Twenty
four thousand copies will be printed
twelve thousand for the use of members
of the House and half that number for
the Senators. liesides being a revised
edition of the firmer publication known
as the IJird llook, giving a description of
the birds of the State, their "manners
and customs" and whether or not the
farmers' friends, game, or predttcious
there is added a description of the mam
mals of the state. This will include all
four-footed lieasts from the nxlcnts to
ruminants, and everylxxly will know
what the ground-hog Las to do with the

The appropriation bills now iu the

more to conic. Two years ago the esti
mated revenue was &I,mi,0ii) and it Is
not jMissiUe for the committee to go high
er than this figure. This session the rev
enues will not exceed the total amount
of the last and it will lie necessary for the
committee to make some horizontal cuts
in order to keep w ithin Imunds.
Although tiie hall of the House is a
thing of Ixiauty, its acoustic pniRrtu
seem to be defective ; at least, that is the
plea gjven iu liehalf of the rejiortcr w ho
made Mr. Pauibly, in his eulogy on Rep
resentative Taggart, say : "Custom alone
sanctions kind words and certain death,"
instead of "Custom sanctions only kind
words concerning the dead." Many oth
er blunders appeared iu the Re-ord, to
the chagrin of the memliers "rising to
remark." (n Saturday men were at
work stretching wires across the hall in
different directions midway Viet ween the

w ithout success. His claim had been re

Smoking Kill a Baby.
CoNNKl.l.vil.I.K, Pa.. Jan. iV Michael,
the 3-year-old son of Anthony Riidak, a
miner at I.eisenring No, 1, died yester
day from nicotine poisoning. F.versiuee
the lxiy was old enough to hold a pipe or
the stump of a cigar in his mouth he has
been an inveterate smoker. His father
taught him as a joke. Karly attempts to
use the weed made little Michael sick,
but iu time he liecame accustomed to take
a smoke" after his meal just the same as
his father.
It was great sport for Kodak's compan
ions, who were wont to visit him. They
would all sit aliout the room and the liov
in their midst would vie wilh them iu
sending out huge puffs from a strong pipe.
Aliout a year ago the child liegan to show
a strong appetite for tobhaeco. Tho
strongest brands did not make bim diz
.y, and one of the viiest pipes in his fath
er's jiossession was his constant compan
ion. Six mouths ago Michael began to
1. xse flesh rapidly. Ho lost his appetite
for everything except tobaifo. He was
jieevLsh and fretful. The parents leing
ignorant, humored him in furnishing
tolia co on all occasions From a sturdy
child weighing 50 pounds Michael fell
away until he was a mere skeletou.
A few days ago some American neigh
liors learned of the Rudak boy's serious
condition. They advised the parents to
call In a physician. This was done, but
the physician was unable to save his life.
A few hours before death the little fellow
pleaded with his mother to fill up his
pipe and give him a smoke.

Jerry Simpsoa't Bine Talk.
Nkw York, Jan. 'JT. Congressman
Jerry Simpson addressed the Manhattan
Single Tax Club In ('bickering Hall to
night. Although introduced as a Popu
list Congressman, he denied the classifi
cation, saying that he did not Itclieve that
a man should belong to party, but the
party to the man. Moreover, whenever
he found a party more nearly suited to
his views than the "Calamity How lers"
of Kansas, he intended to join it.
All the trouble in the country, accord
ing to Mr. Simpson, is due to the rapid
concent ration of wealth. Congressmen
are the paid attorneys of trusts and the
system of government is one of brigand
age, Hcpredii-ted that JO per cent, of the
next Feneration w ill lie criminals, and
exprcssi-d the gravest fears that his own
might lie one of the numlier. He had j
no fear for himself, as he sai.l, he could .
not sink any lower than the level in
which he moved. i
The millionaires made all the crimi- j
nals precipitated all the strikes and call- j
ed out the militia. Self-government by
the people he despaired of, as the people
would not be educated in the only theory i
single tax on land values which would
redeem the Government and make every
body happy.
