The Mirror yesterday referred edi torially to the extraordinary depressed condition of trade in Philadelphia, as demonstrated from a canvass made among the factories of that city.v To-day comes a circular from San Francisco Typographical Union No. 21, staliog that tho condition of busi ness is worse with them than at any previous period, and urging upon printers not to go there, as at present there is in that city "a camp of the unemployed numbering hundreds of men, who sleep in the open air or in rude sheds, their only rations being the 'free soup made from the contri buiioos of vegetables and meat by charitable market men." These are cold, hard, discouraging facts, which, although but general news, aod besides of a character to make it manifest to the most obtuse American citizen that the Democratic party has not brought the prosperity that it so loudly presaged when with honeyed words they held out enticing allurements to voters, We say that for all this is now so clear, yet we are loathe to place be fore our readers these unfortunate re cults, because although true, it be hooves us as Republicans and good citizens to help restore confidence and business, and no better way is there than for each and all to speak en couragingly and hope for better times. Democracy has placed the country into a very deep ditch, in deed, but the people of the United States have grit and ability to fight their way back to brighter days. The straitened condition will at least have had the good eS'ect of teaching the voters a lesson which will not be lost upon tbem. The Republican party only is the party of the people. Warren Mirror. pension list a honor and to close the lips of scaudal mongers for all time to come. Wash- inglon Post. Bad Business. The recent sales of woolen goods in New York showed a lamentable dull condition of trade, utterly discour aging to the manufacturers. This should be a lesson to the "tariff re form" Congressmen, and induce them to keep hands off and not throw open the American markets to for eign goods. The New York Press has been iuquiring into the matter and here is what it learned : Said a leading auctioneer yester day : "Not for a great many years have I seen our woolen industry so completely paralyzed as it is to-day. I have been selling goods of the best mills in the country, goods which have a reputation as to quality and finish that has stood the test for years aud are recoguized as standard art i cles, for loss than half the cost to manufacture, and even at thrse fig ures it is very hard to find purchas ers, as the retailers are buying noth ing except for actual needs." A member of one of our leading commission bouses of this city, which in good times does a business running up iuto the millions, when approach ed on the subject, said : "The woolen business is stagnant. It is impossible to make any sales and what are made are at the buyers own terms. Hard ly an offer, no matter how redicu lously low, is refuecn. We have a large stock on band, and all the mills are also carrying a large line, and there is a rush to get rid of them even at ruinous prices. The un certainty as to what Congress will do in regard to a tariff' bill has caused a rush to get rid of all manufactured goods, lest they may go still lower. One year ago this mouth we did a business of $150,000. This month t amounts to $25,000." It would hardly be expected that under such lamentable conditions the free traders would endeavor to still further pull down American indus ries, but that is just what they are doing, and they will keep up their efforts until they are successful. Those farmers who voted for Cleveland and dollar wheat still have the wheat. The dollar seems to have escaped. Cholera is declining in Russia, but it is more than holding its own in Italy iu the dirty towns along the sea coast. From ull uccouuts uo ef forts are being made to suppress it. L. J. HOriilNS. "Democratic cood times" have mado it necessary fur the Philadel phia Inquirer to distribute 23,000 loaves of bread to unemployed work men and their families in that city. This is the kind of good work neces sitated by the change that was voted for last fall, but the Inquirer seems to be doing it to the satisfaction of the man out of work.

Certain Democratic and Mugwump organe of a peculiar and lamentable type do not conceal the sneer with which they ask, referring to the pen sioners, whether they went into tb war for pay. Tbey seem to think, or wish to intimate, that the act of ac cepting a pension a quarter of a cen tury afterward is proof irrefutable that the person so accepting was an luiatea in tne nrst instance by a eor- oia ana ignonie motive. it appears to be their purpose to cast discredit on every man who goes on crutches or carries an empty sleeve. Ibis is not the right way to treat the question. Those who revile the pensioners oy niut ana mnuendo are as wide of the mark as those who hail every inquiry into a pension award as covert rebellion and calculated treason. Both classes are fanatics, both are disturbers and incendiaries. No one who knew the men composing the Union Army, and who wished at the same time to tell the truth, would insinuate that tbey shouldered their muskets for a mercenary purpose There was more money for able men iu staying at borne during those fou years of tradgedy infinitely more than in entering the Army. The only men who made pecuniary profit by the transaction were those who had neither the brains nor the indus try to win a livelihood in civil life, Men of ability aud force sacrificed themselves in leaving home. Cer tainly the Uuioti armies were no made up of iucapables. Certain . L r , . ino surviving conieuerates wno en countered them in Tennessee, Geor gia, Virginia and Mississippi will no is an arbitrary word osed to designate the only bow (ring) which cannot be pulled oB the watch. Here's the idea Only 1,182 Tensions A Week. The difficulties of the old soldier are not likely to be lessened much for the balance of his lifo unless he be longs to that class who live forever, It has taken an ordinary lifetime to get his pittance, and now it looks as though be must live another in order to secure what he alreadv has. The working force of the Pension Department is more than 5,000 divi ded about equally between clerks aod doctors. The average number of pensions adjudicated per week is about 1,182. From this it may be seeuhat it takes five men a week to pass upon one case, and the entire 5,000 only average two-fifths of 1 per cent, or a case a day. Thus it takes twenty-five and a half men working au entire day to allow a pension to an old soldier. The amount of red tape cone through with and the passing from one depart ment to another ia enough to confuse the greatest mathematician who ever figured the distance to the sun or counted the number of hairs on the whiskers of the man in the moon. Now when considered that in the case of every suspeusiou it will take an equal amount of time and the measuring of all the red tape, it be gins to look as though the last veter an will be far beyond the need of a pension and safe in "Abraham's bo som" long before the last mile of tape is measured. The average age of the war veteran is above 50 years, aod there is not a brilliant prospect before them of reaching the half score mark beyond that. The hardships endured in their youDger days is telling upon them. Already the muster out roll is grow ing at a rapid pace, and whatever is to be done for them must be doue quickly. Several of the Southern States are already pensioning their veteraus, and now, it is reported, the State of North Caroliua is about to pass an ordinance to pensiou its soldiers at the rate of $150 to $250 per annum. Thi bow tits a groove oo each end. A collar runt down inside the pendant (etem) and Rti into the grooves, firmly locking the bow to the pendant, eo that it cannot be pulled or twisted off. It positively prevents the loss of the watch by theft, and avoids injury to it from dropping. IT CAN ONLY BE HAD with jaa.
