THE LEGISLATURE ADJOURNS.
At 12 o'clock noon of last Satur
day the gavels of the two presiding
officers of the State legislature rap
ped close of the session of 18!'5.
The session has been the longest
sioce the new constitution of Penn
sylvania was adopted, and more bills
were considered and finally disposed
of, one way or another, than at any
session since that time. Of the
merits or demerits of the legislation
which has passed, much of which
still awaits the Governor's action, the
country cannot yet judge. Much of
it will undoubtedly prove of value to
the country; some of it will not.
This is to be expected from every
legislative body. Time must tell the
tale, and the laws enacted roust first
be tried before the good and the evil
can be separated. Among the things
omitted, and which the people ex
pected this legislature to do was the
passage of the apportionment bills.
But, as has been said before, the
country districts are the gainers by
this failure; hence they have nothing
to regret. Once in a long while the
country members unite at the begin
ning of s legislative session and stay
united till the close, but it is the rare
exception to the rule. They more
frequeotly are guided by selfish mo
tives, and as a consequence become
divided and stay divided till the end.
Then is when the cities rule the
roost and get their harvest. In the
session just closed there was a strange
mixture on this question. Occasion
ally the country would hamonize for
a short time, and then the slaughter
would come and bad legislation go
down like reids before the reaper.
Bat these spasmodic attacks could
not last long without thorough or
ganization, a thing too often neg
lected. The final killing of the judges' pen
sion bill is one of the accomplish
ments which the legislature should
have credit for. No factor was more
potent in the death of that measure
than the country press, which
throughout the length of the State
made such a war upon it as to make
its passage in the Senate an impossi
bility. If the legislature just closed has
not come up to the full measure of
expectation of the country, it must
not be charged to the individual
members, most of whom labored con
scientiously to fulfill their obligations
to their constituents, yet in many in
stances were hampered by powers
which it is hoped may some day be
driven out of business. It requires
more than ordinary courage to stand
up from the beginning to the end of a
session against such odds.
WANTS THE NEXT CONVENTION.
Pittsburg is extending a rather
cordial, even vehement, invitation to
the Republican party to hold its
next National Convention in that
city. Our enterprising friends at the
other end of the State are not only
determiued to have a greater Pitts
burg, but they want to show them
selves off to the whole country. This
is a good spirit.
It has looked for the past twenty
years as if it were the settled policy
of both parties to hold their National
convention in the West, or the West
as it formerly was, but really now
nearly the central point of the coun
try. The last great party conven
tions held east of Ohio were those of
1872, the Republicans that year
meeting in Philadelphia and the
Democrats in Baltimore. Since then
each parly has held five conventions.
The Republicans have met once in
Cincinnati, once in Minneapolis and
three times in Chicago ; the Demo
crats have met once in Cincinnati,
twice in St. Loais and twice in Chi
cago. In most instances the contest
has been between the successful cities
and points even farther West. The
Republicans three years ago took a
considerable step westward in select
ing Minneapolis as the place for the
convention.
We do not know any really good
reason, however, why an effort should
not be made to have the Republican
National Convention of next year
held in the East, or as far east as
Pittsburg, which id west of the Al
leghenies aud some 400 miles from
the sea. A considerable portion of
those who come from the remote
West to attend national conventions
like to make a trip to the seaboard
before they return. It would make
little difference to them whether the
convention were held at Omaha, Chi
csgo or Pittsburg. Either city would
be on a natural route east. They
could stop off long enough to save
the country at either point and then
continue their pleasure trip.
Sraoe will raise the question that
Pittsburg is not sufficiently a central
point. With the modern facilities for
traveling this pan no longer amount
to an argument. No city in the
country is more accessible from all
quarters. There would be a historic
significance in holding a Republican
National Convention in Pittsburg,
for it was there forty years ago that
the meeting was held at which the
substantial organization of the Re
publican party took place. The hos
pitality and entertainment which the
people of Pittsburg would extend
their guests on the occasion of a na
tional convention would be boundless
and a revelation in affairs of this
kind.
Unless Philadelphia is to enter as a
competitor for the coming conven
tion and there is no indication of it
we shall hold up our hand in fa
vor of Pitteburg, and hope she will
get it. We like that lively spirit in
a municipality which goes for every
thing in sight and is never satisfied.

A BETTER USE FOR OUR HOLD.
Official statistics, just published,
show that in the seveu months from
September, 1894, to March last, both
inclusive, the imports of woolens
were $21,347,300, while for the like
period in 1893-94 they amounted to
only $8,927,332. This indicates the
startling increase of 139.1 per cent
in this class of goods.
The imports of cotton were $21,
665,575 against $12,833,556 in 1893
94, an increase of 68.2 per cent.
In silks the imports increased from
$12,876,731 in 1893-94 to $19,817,
929 in the corresponding seven
months of the Wilson Tariff, showing
a gain, for the foreigners, of 58.4 per
cent.
In the aggregate these transactions
show that in the seven months after
the Wilson Tariff went into effect the
importations of dry goods were $78,
608,793, while for the like period in
1893-94 they were $44,644,935, an
increase of 76.2 per cent.
When due allowance is made for
undervaluations, stimulated as they
are by the ad valorem duties of the
Wilson Tariff, it is very evident that
under the evil influence of that per
nicious measure, foreign goods are
again acquiring an undue foothold in
our markets.
The alarming fact is that at a time
when many thousands of work peo
ple were idle in the New England
and other manufacturing districts,
the Wilson Tariff was increasing the
importation of dry goods to the ex
tent of 76.2 per cent, in 7 months
alone. The gold that was paid for
these foreign products would have
imparted comfort in many American
homes where workpeople sat gloom
ily, in enforced idleness, wbile im
porters were busily engaged in un
loading goods that could have been
made here. It would have been
better use for our gold to have kept
it at home. American Economist.
Twice the usual quantity of hops
were imported last March ; tbat a,
we bought 221,681 pounds from for
eign hop growers as against 109,704
pounds in March, 1894. The in
crease in the imports of hops for nine
months was nealy 2,300,000 pounds.
This enormous increase is probably
caused by the "new woman" com
mencing to drink beer.
The New York Ilerold felicitates
itself upon having the Merchant's Re
view of New York on its side in the
modern battle of the Bovines, and in
a moment of great exultation de
clared that all articles of food should
be free of duty. What are our West
ern friends going to say about this?
Do tbey wish for the experience of
English farmers?
Cutlery is coming in quicker
than ever, for in March, 1894, we
bought $54,771 worth, but in March,
this year, we paid $148,030 to foreign
cutlery manufacturers. During the
nine months endiog April 1 we sent
abroad $1,461,775 for foreign cutlery
as against $703,000 paid out during
the nine months a year earlier.
Senator Palmer's description of
Vice President Stevenson as a man
who never expresses an opinion ou a
quesliou tbat has two sides is very
good ; but he is by no means the only
Democratic leader who is secreting
his views on the silver issue.
The total government receipts dur
ing the ten mouths of the current
fiscal year, to April 30, were over
$45,000,000 lees than the expenses,
although the latter were reduced to
the lowest possible amount.

Dear Sirs I have been a tobacco (lend for many years, and during tho past two
years have smoked fifteen to twenty oigara regularly every day. My whole nervous
systom became affected, until my physician told me I must give up the useof tobac
co fur the time bo.ng, at leant. I tried the so-called "Keely Cure," "No-To-Hsc,"
and various other remedies, but without success, until I accidentally learned of
your "Baco-Curo." Throe weeks ago to-day I cominencod using your preparation,
and to-day I consider myself completely cured; I am In perfect health, and the hor
rible ciaving for tobacco, which ovory inveterate smoker fully appreciates, has
completely left mo. I consider your ''Baco-Curo" simply wonderful, and can fully
rocommend it. Youra very truly, C. W. Hoiinick.
