ShaefTer, principal of tlie KuUtown Normal school, to be state superintendent of public instruction. The Legislature has thus far sent to tbe Governor 26 bills. Of these seventeen were approved, four vetoed, one withdrawn and six await action. The combine of Pennsylvania Con gressmen has not yet caught any plums. They are all sitting around in Washington waiting for the tree to be shaken, but Cleveland is not bumping their side of the tree. We notice tbat Mr. Ilarrity gets what he goes for. Mr. Sibley eays he won't lake the Gubernatorial nomination if tendered to him, and seems, to have already had his fill of office. To a Meadville Star reporter be ued this language when spoken to on the sub ject: I never think of tbe Governorship unless somebody speaks of it in my hearing. I am not a candidate for governor of Pennsylvania. More over, I would not accept the nomina tion were it tendered to me. In my present position I am bored to death by office seekers, and were I nomi nated and elected governor of this great state the good Lord only knows the extent of the army of place hun ters who would swarm around me. Secretary Gresham says that he I, : i r r . uuo receiveu a report irom Uomtuis- sioner Blount, concerning bis action in Honolulu in hauling down the old flag, but be will not make it public. Probably Gresham himself is ashamed of the trailing of our banner in tbe dust. He was a brave union soldier, and Blount's conduct, under Cleve land'a orders, of course, naturally causes him to feel uncomfortable, but Blount was a rebel soldier and Cleve land sent a substitute to the army, and they have very little feeling in the matter. Tbe American people would like to know all about tbe miserable affair, and they will know it or know tbe reason why. When Populist Senator Martin, of Kansas, called on Cleveland yester- uy 10 as wny ms influence was not potent in securing offices for bis con stituents, the President asked him to show his credentials to prove that he is a Democrat. In other words Cleveland snubbed the Populist, and .Martin is as as mad as a hatter. He wants to know if a Senator who was receivbd with open arms in tbe Dem ocralio caucus is not a full-fledged jjsroocrai and worthy to -lay who shall hold office in his State. W ra rrta.4 ll.nt f 1 1 1 1 . , . . 6'J "' vicvcianu turned mm own. Martin is a second edition of Pefler a weak imitation of Jerry Simpson, and before he gets very far in tn beoate be will find bis level TnE ritutou Gazelle objects to what it calls "the proposition to pro mote Speakers of the House to State Treasurerships," because it transforms the entire membership of the House into involuntary boomers of the Speaker's candidacy. "We Bee that to-day," it says, "with regard to Speaker Thompson, just as we have seen it a dozen times before in the politics of this State." Io 100 years but three men who occupied the Speaker's chair have been elected Slate Treasurer. The first of the.e was Joseph Lawrence, who became Treasurer a dozen years after he was Speaker, and the secoud was James Ross Suowdeu, both of these being elected by the Legislature itself. The only one who bus gone from the Speaker's chair to the Treasurership by the vote of the people is Henry K. Dover, and as there was no other caudidate fur the nomination at the time there was no boutniiig, involun tary or otherwise, by members of the Legislature. There might be somo serious evil in the condidncy of the Speaker, but so fur there appears nothing alarming to cood morals about il.rhlla iVcw. Thk declaration of Congressman Sibley, of the Erie-Crawford district, that he will not be a candidate for the Democratic nomination for Gov ernor next year, and would not ac cept it if given him, is regarded as merely an effort to sidetrack a can vass that was given a premature start. It will be a great surprise if Con gressman Sibley should not turn up later as his own candidate for Gover nor, but ho has gat himself in a posi tion where he will find it advanta geous to stay unless invited out by the Democratic bosses. At present Attorney General Heosel has some notion of runniug lor Governor, and that may largely accouut for Mr. Sibley's obliging announcement after he had been posing for several mouths. I'hila. lWss. R. D: Bi.ackmore, author of "Lorna Dooue," is a practical fruit grower. He speaks as a fruiL grower and not as an auther when he writes from his home iu England to the New York Tribune concerning the harm which free trade has done to Iho agricultural interests of Great Brit ain. In acknowledgeiug the receipt of a "Farmers' Almanac," Mr Blackmore writes as follows: Alas that our poor farmers no longer require or could afford one, so wholly does their money pass to your less demented country. Thousands of acres of good land in England have dropped out of cultivation, so wretched are the prices of, all pro duce under our "Free Trade" system. And yet the poor do not get the ben efitor very little of it in prices, for bread is as dear with wheat at 25 shillings per quarter as it was at 40 shillings, which is about the lowest figure at which it can be grown with any profit here. The same rule ap plies to my produce fruit. Sure to Reduce Wages. That sterling champion of Ameri can interests the American Economist, recently sent a circular letter to man ufactures all over the country asking them what effect the passage of the free trade bill receutly prepared by the Reform Club in New York would have upon the industries of the coun try. These questions were as fol lows: What would be the effect of the proposed measure upon the prosperty of the United States? What would be the effect upon your industry ? What would be the effect upon the wages paid in your industry? What would be the effect upon the purchasing power of the people? All of the answers were to tbe effect that the proposed bill would certain ly result in the reduction of wages and the diminution of the output. One company writes: "There would be no other possible way to meet it except to reduce wages of employes in our factory," and a big knitting mills company in Little Falls, N." Y., says : "It would necessitate a reduc tion of at least 50 per cent, paid in wages in this industry." It must be remembered that the bill prepared by the Reform Club was sneered at in Washington as not stringent enough, and its authors were alluded to as tyros in tariff legislation, all of which means that when the Democratic Congress agaiu convens there is going to be such a cutting down of tariff as will make the American working' man wonder where be is at.
