WEDNESDAY. JUNE 20, 1805.

Tronsurcr,
JAMES H. FONES.
Associate Judge,
JACK MeCRAY.
The Governor has signed the bill
abolishing days of grace on drafts,
promissory notes, etc. The bill does
not go into effect until Jan. 1st, 18i6,
so as to give business men time to
prepare for the uew order of things.
A religious convention has again
set the end of the world. This is all
very well so far as it goes, but the
trouble is the world refuses usually to
come to an end ou the day set no
matter whether the brethern or sis
tren wear white robes and go up on
the hilltops or Dot.
According to llarrisburg ex
changes, the appointees under the
new Superior Court bill, which there
is no longer any doubt that Governor
Hastiugs will approve, will be Judge
Wickhara, of Beaver; ex-Judge
Reedcr, of Easton; S. A. Davenport,
of Erie; A. N. Willard, of Scrauton;
and Judge McPhersoo, of Harris
burg; Geo. B. Orlady, of Hunting,
don. The minority representatives
will either be ex-Justice Thompson or
ex-Justice lleydrick.
"The Tariff is settled," shouts the
free-trader, and still there is a defi
ciency in the revenues of millions of
dollars and oue of the main sources
of revenue, the income tax, is de
clared unconstitutional. Instead of
a tariff for revenue only, the Demo
cratic administration will probably
have to resort to a policy of bonds
for revenue only. This policy, like
the Tariff reform policy, will inure
to the benefit of Great Britian. Her
bond syndicates have a string to
United States bond issues.
The Democratic country weeklies
are searching the Philadelphia Pub
lic Ledger with eager eyes for express
ions of condemnation on the just
closed session of the Legislature.
They pick out the criticisms they
want but carefully avoid to state that
in the Ledger's opinion, as expressed
in its editorial columns, the defeat of
the Judges' Retirement Bill" is the
most outrageous act of the session.
The Ledger is right on some thiDgs
and cranky on others, and editors
who are unfair and dishonest, who
would endorse the devil if by it they
could reflect on the Republican par
ty, take advantage of Ledger's com
ments to mislead their readers. Bel
lefonte Gazette.
All this talk about the Governor
being compelled, for financial reasons,
to veto many charity appropriation
ouis is mere oosn. xnose who were
in a position to know the State's fi
nancial condition, and who were in
close touch with the appropriations
committees of the last legislature,
gave out the assurance that the
money to pay these appropriations
would be forthcoming it the bills were
passed, and the members of the leg
islature were satisfied on this point
before they consented to vote for
them. If the Governor signs the
bills the amount will be paid, but it is
altogether likely that some of the
banks will be compelled to loosen up
on some of the State's funds which
they hav6 on deposit. The appropri
alions private charities as well as
common school will be paid and the
Treasury of the Commonwealth will
not be embarrassed.
The organs of the Free-Trade par
ty are now to the front with suggea
tions for raising sufficient revenue,
which their "tariff for revenue only"
failed to do. A tax upon tea, a tax
upon coffee and an increased tax up
on beer are amoDg the more favored
suggestions of the Free-Traders,
This, of course is to be expected from
the leaders of a party having no
ideas of their own, and who are mere
imitators of anything and everything
that is Lughsh. Direct taxation up
on every article that enters into gen
eral consumption, and which becomes
a ueceseity cf life, is the English idea
of making life agreeable. Hence its
recommendation for adoption by our
Free-Traders. But what have they
to say about it ? The people have ele&
ted Protectionists to legislate upon
reveuue matters hereafter. The Pro
tectiouists will Dot pay the sligLtes
attention to any of the suggestions of
the Free-Traders, but will proceed
to do what the Free-Trader could not
frame a Tariff law that will pro
vide a sufficiency of revenue, and
frame it io such a way that it will af
ford Protection to American, not to
foreigu interests.
Canadian eggs are coining right
along. Last year in March we im
ported only 9,855 dozeu ; this year in
March we bought from foreign coun
tries 43.5GG do 7xn. How does the
farmer like this.
The call for the Republican Stale
Conveotioo, to be held at llarrisburg,
Aug. 28, states that it will nominate
a State Treasurer and six Judges of
the Superior Court. This indicates
that Gov. Hastings will sign the bill
creating the new court, which Is now
u bis hands. The convention will
consist of 28!) delegates, a gain of 25
over the last convention.
The Democrats of Butler county
o their recent convention, passed a
resolution in which they arraigned
the Republican party of this Stale
'for its legislation in favor of corpo
rations and against the interest of the
people." This is truly refreshing,
coming as it does from a party that
has but recently completed gigantic
back-door deals with the Sugar Trust,
and whose President, after keeping
a notorious corporation lawyer in the
office of Attorney General, has pro
moted him to the head of the Stale
Department, filling his place with a
awyer who is counsel for half a doz
en railroads aod other corporations.
The spectacle is that of a bleary old
gambler, with packed cards sticking
out of his sleeves, leering across the
table at bis opponent and scolding
him for not playiug fair. Franklin
Ctt'.
Probably do more interesting
case has occupied the attention of
the New York courts for some years
than that of John Wilson, whom a
jury has juBt awarded a verdict of
$14,000 with interest. Wilson's story
is one of the strangest on record. He
told how he was drugged, "shang
haied" and sent to Australia on a
sailing vessel by his wife, with whom
he could not agree. After a preca
rious existence at the antipodes he
drifted to California. Some years
after his novel deportation he re
turned to this city, when he discov
ered that his wife had divorced him
n bis absense, remarried and died,
leaving to her second spouse the
money she bad inherited from Wil
son's father. It was the money that
he sought to recover, with the result
above recorded. Taken all together,
it is a case which certainly illustrates
the fact that one half of the world
does not know what the other half is
up to. This strange story moves the
Oil City Blizzard to earnestly hope
that the publicity given to the novel
method adopted by the late Mrs.
Wilson to get rid of ber spouse will
not precipitate among us au era of
"sbanghaing" husbands wbo ate no
longer welcome at the family hearth
stoDe.
The Flinn Road Bill.
The Flinn road bill authorizes the
county commissioners, whenever they
deem it necessary, to survey and
make plans of the roads in the town'
ships within their counties, for re
pairs or improvements, with permis
sion to levy a road tax, aud improve
the highways on a petition, which
must be approved by the Grand Jury
and the Court. The law is not man
datory.
After going through the court pro
cedure tbe commissioners are given
the right to proceed to view and take
for the county any property necessary
for roads, subject to a system of ap
peals and exceptions. The bill pro
vides for the appointment of a Board
of Viewers in event of the com mis
sioners being unable to agree with
property owners, at $5 per day, whose
report is also subject to exceptions
for thirty days after being filed. Tbe
court has tbe power to confirm, mod
ifiy or alter the report.
The bill also provides that bids
must be regularly taken on all im
provements made, contracts to go to
lowest and best bidder. It applies to
county bridges as well us roads.
The bill does not permit a levy of
more than two mills for road build
ing purposes. All roads or parts
thereof remain under the charge of
the Township Supervisors, as at pres
ent, until the commissioners' report
or the report of the viewers, coveriog
their improvements is confirmed by
tbe court. They then become pub
lio county roads, and the Supervisors
are relieved from their care.
It is not likely that many counties
of the State will adopt the provisions
of tho bill, as it is practically of lit
tle or uo u8o 1 1 rural districts.

Beyond a doubt, Titusville cn boast of

Kice, aged 82 years, has recently learned
to manage a wheel and now enjoys a spin
as much as tho younger riders of the
city. Mr. Rice is an active business man
who does not appear to be over sixty
years old.
Judge Greer of Butler is solidly
against the idea of gowning occupants of
the bench in Pennsylvanian law courts,
and expressed himself as follows : There
Is no sense in the Idea; It is at variance
with all notions of American patriotism.
No one will ever get me in a gown It is
all I can do to keep my coat on now, and
unless a man wore it minus other clothes
it would be ve very disagreeable. Robes
were worn in a time when they were In
tended to awe the people. In this day,
if a judge has not enough dignity with
out attempting to secure it In such a
manner let him get off the bench. I
don't know what Butler county people
would say If I should rig up in one. It
would cause a breeze, though.
A decision of interest to oil men and
owners of producing territory was han
ded down by the Circuit Court at Find
lay, Ohio, Wednesday. Hitherto it has
been the custom of large oil companies to
acquire as much property surrounding
producing territory as possible and de-
velope it at their loisure. When they
have fully protected themselves by leas.
lng all the territory available, they would
drain the oil by wells on adjoining pro
perty, and thus save the expense of drill
ing numerous wells. A land owner
whose property wa being drained in
this manner by tbe Ohio Oil company,
which held a lease thereon, made a con
tract with a second party to drill eight
wells. The Ohio Oil company got an in
juction restraining the latter from devel
oping his lease. The court, in dismissing
the injunction, decides that the owner
may proceed to develope his land, the
Ohio Oil company having failed to do so
under its contract. Many thousand acres
of land In Ohio are affected by this da
clsion, and it is likely that hundreds of
additional wells will now be drilled in
order to hold the e&ea.Pittburg Tcle
