Strangers from the interior bring the information that Senator "Billy" Flinn, oi Pittsburg, still scares at the sight of a Quay poster. Phila. Frest. The Republican plurality of 11,. 278 in Rhode Islaud breaks the record, with the exception of the year 1862, when a Republican war Governor was elected without opposition. Tbe first straw of 1896 comes from a smalLatate, but it is significant. The Hon William F. Harrity, the cheerful Adonis of post-Jeffersonian Democracy has called the Demo cratic National Committee to assem ble in Chicago. Tbe raomentious question in this counection is, What is he going to do with it when be gets it there? WiTn only one dissenting vote in the assembly, and by a vote of 36 to 4 in the Senate, the bicycle baggage bill has passed the New York legisla ture. The terms of the bill are as follows: "Bicycles are declared to be baggage and shall be transported as baggage. for passengers by railroad corporations and subject to the same liabilities, and do passenger shall be required to crate, cover or otherwise protect any such bicycle ; provided, however, that a railroad corporation shall not be required to transport, under the provisions of this act, more thao one bicycle for a single person." THE WIDE TIRE WAGOSS. Tbe last legislature passed a bill to encourage the ub of wide tires on road wagons. Tbe bill oB'ers,as a pre' niium for the fidelity of farmers and others in this direction, a one-fuurlb rebate upon all taxes assessed for the maintenance of the highways. The question has come before the Attor ney General whether or not the far mer must use the wide tire upon all bis wagons, used to carry more than 2,000 pounds, and the Attorney Gen eral has given an affirmative answer If Mr. Jones residing at Penfield has four wagoDS, three with the wide tire and one with the narrow tire, and uses all four iu hauling bark to tbe Clearfield tannery, and all carry loads in excess of 2,000 pound, he forfeits his right to tbe rebato because of the use of one narrow tired wagou, All must be wide tire. But if Mr Jones uses bis three wide tired wag ons for hauling bark, all carrying 2,000 pounds, aud his fourth one fu some lighter traffic, huckstering or for faaiily purposes, loading it with traffic belo.v the regulation weight he is entitled to the rebuts. This would be true of the furaier who has a wide tire wagon that he uses fur heavy hauling, and a family carriage. He would not forfeit Ii'ib right to the rebate by driving his nar row tire carriage to church, or other wise, providing he hauled less than 2,000 pounds. The rule is very sin pie but of such a nature as to pre cluda the use of mixed wagons for purposes of general traffic when such wagons carry more thau the weigh prescribed by the Act of Assembly Clearfield Journal. It appears that the single stale of Georgia now has more manufactories than the whole South had in 18C0. This is au illustration of the remark able change that has been taking place in Southern industries during the past thirty years. That section i no longer giving all its attention to agriculture, but is reaching out for additional means of prosperity, in imitation of the North. The S. S. Convention. At the call of Rev. J. C. McDon ald, of Oil City, District President of the Slate Sunday School Association, delegates from a number of the Sab bath Schools of Forest county met in Marienville M. E. church tbe even ing of April Cth for the purpose of forming a county organization. The convention continued through the tlay and evening of the 7ih, and judging by the attendance aud interest, was a pronounced suc cess. Two State officers, Dr. Kep hart and Mrs. Barnes, were present and made many frieuds by their ear nestness and zeal. Excellent ad dresses were made by Revs. Earse man, McAninch, McDonald, Stewart, r. M. Clark, Esq , Dr. S. S. Towler and others. The meetings were large ly attended, which speaks well for the interest the prople of Forest county and Marienville have in tbe Sunday School work. A permanent county Sunday School Association was formed, which will hold annual meetings. The officers elected for the ensuing year are : President, Dr. S. S. Towler, Marienville ; Vice President, F. X. Kreitler, Nebraska; Secretary aud Treasurer, Mrs. Jennie Patterson, Marienville. Tbe above officers, with Josiah Work of Redclyffe, Mrs. J. B. Ilagerly, Miss Nannie Morrow and II. M. Foreman of Tionesta, consti tute an executive committee and will fix the time and place of holding the uext aunual meeting, and look up constitution and by-laws and other matters of business for the Associa tion. Many points of interest were brought out by the exchauge of ideas and suggestions made by this conven- ion, and if the work there started is carefully followed out will certainly result in an increase in the Sabbath School work all over the county. Marienville Exprea Mr. lhompsoD and Mrs.Wbiteman, of Tionesta; Mr. Lowman and Mrs. Patterson, ot Marienville : Mrs. Black of Frosts, and Mr. Cosgrove of Clar- ngtoD, were chosen as a committee on permanent organization and fol lowing is the report made by them : first We recommend that the convention adopt tbe constitution recommended by the State S. S. As sociation, subject to such changes as executive committee thai! deem proper. Second lbat re nominate the f! (Stme u above lowing officers: mentioned.) Third That the executive com mittee be requested to district tbe county, appoint district presidents, and, through them, arrange for hold ing district conventions and the thor ough organization of each district.

With tlio advent or spring comes the annual production of lumber from the Allegheny anil its tributaries, the Clarion, Rod Bank and the Mahoning. This sea son tho output which will find Its way to the Pittsburg market with the spring freshets will exceed In quality that of last year, but will be much less In the aggregate number of feet. On account of the low water there Is now loss than 2.W, 000 cubic feet of square timber hore, but a largo,amount is back, distributed along tho various streams as follows : On Tionesta creek, or tho nppor Alle gheny, Dickey, Collins A Co. have 125, 000 of square pine and from 50 to 100 barges. Collins A Siggins have about the same amount of square timber j this is all pine. From tho Clarion comes the largest supply. Truman, Henderson A Co. have 500,000 feet of pine. This lot is said to be the finest timber floated on the Allegheny for 20 years and comes from the Hayes tract in Joflerson county, was hauled six miles, cut, rafted and to bo delivered by Harah A Vasbinder. Hall, Gardner A Co. have less than 200,000 of hemlock ; Taylor C Moore, 150,000 hemlock ; W. I). A S. II. Shields, H0.000 hemlock ; Dick ey, Moore A Kelso, 80,000 square and 400,000 feet sawed homlock, also 20 pairs of boats; A'axbinder A Hunter, 400,000 hemlock; Vasbinder, A' Harah A Eason, 35,000 pine and hemlock j Vasbindor A A'Harah, 50,000 pine and oak ; James A' Harah, 80,000 homlock ; Barrett A Crossman, 100,000 hemlock; W. A. Ctnssman, 140,000 hemlock; Truman it Rogers, 100,000 pine and oak ; Bradon A Catts, 50,000 homlock ; Cook A Co., 150, 000 pine. The Red Bank is far behind the usual supply, and will send littlo over 300,000 square feet Ab Neal has 100,000 pine; Benjamin Snyder, 25,000 ; Charles Cor bett, 100,000, and Carrier, Hall A Co., 50, 000. On the Mahoning the supply is about exhausted, and only a few odd rafts will come from there. The run of boats will be extremely light, not over 100 pair being put in on all the streams. The low price govern ing last year's sales scared the up-river people and thoy limited the supply. The outlook for fair prices is very good, although no timber has yet been sold. First class barge pine will bring 20 cents, hemlock 8 cents, oak from 10 to 14 cents, sawed hemlock, $9. Of the lumbermen, C. R. Vasbindor, S. H. Shields, S. A. Hunter and Doverspike are in town ready to sell. With the next rise most of the timber will get in, as those controlling it are encouioged over the outlook and will rush things when tbe water comes. At the present rate of cntting, 10 years hence will see the last of the timber business on the Allegheny, and those who have been following it so Biany years must retire to get into some thing else. The outlook for a brisk trade in lum ber amonsp the local dealers is not so en courage as cooM b expert!. J. P. Walters of the wed known lumber firm of J. P. Walters A Cn, in a enn vernation TstnUT iai.l he .iij not look fi;r a very bi; bnom in the demaa.i foe lumber of any kind ax present. As to ball.lin lumber, the t-kwni spring ac.i the an settled condition of th wiiar no ioafct hvl niccb to d- with the daUosi rA tr.ie. The sales nf t;1,iw pin ar larger this year tUan last, bol tlx terri tory eovryI is also Iarr. Price of bemteck are little better than Iat tur. son me uemauu is aooai me same. Tie prices of yellow pine are better ber-auve the whole output is controlled by the Southern Lumber association and they are strong enough to keep the price up. In white pine thero is little or no im provement either In demand or price. One noticeable fact In tho white pine trade is the crowding out of the Michigan pine by the Wisconsin product, which is of better quality and sells at a lower figure. Mr. Walters gave as his reason for this peculiar fact that overproduction in Wisconsin forced tbe manufacturers to undersell their Michigan competitors in order to get their money for immediate use. Besides, tho Southern lumber is gradually crowding the Northern pro duct out of tho markets everywhere. It is claimed that all grades of lumber can be manufactuied in the South much cheaper than elsewhere, consequently the trade will go where the price and quality are most advantageous. Oak is about up to last year's mark lu the gen eral market, although the railroads are buying much more than horetoforo, which seems to be a very good sign. The demand for hard woods is greater than last year and shows much good building is contemplated. This condi tion of the trado, Mr. Walters claimed, was not only true of Pittsburg, but of Ohio, New York, New Jersey, Massa chusetts and Connecticut, as they had close relations with the trade in all those States. Speak iug further of the hemlock trado, he said there was no good reason why tho demand and price of hemlock should not improve, as tho output last year was less than 70 per cent, of the IK'Ji production. The Pennsylvania mills have but little stock on hand and the hemlock yards troughoul the country were, comparatively speaking, about empty, so if there is a demand the price ought to be good. To-day the Pennsylvania lumbermen who manufacture and ship East by rail and tlio Susquehanna, and west by rail and the Allegheny wonder how it is that, notwithstanding the fact that prime lum ber is annually getting scarcer iu Penn sylvama, that a few years will see the last of the splendid pine of the Mahoning and the West Brunch, the prices are really lower than twenty years ago, when the supply was considered inexhausti ble. They overlook the fact that the South has u vasi supply and Unit the houlliern niuiiulacturur can get as good iruigni raius irom Aiaoaina anil lounes see as can inn I'eniisylvania maiiulac- turer troin Elk, Clearlield or Jellorsoo. '1 his seems strange, but is nevertheless truo. It is but a lew years since tiiere was not a loot ot Southern lumber sold iu I'ltUIiurg, and a few years before that nothing west of Michigan found a mar ket here, but now the sawmill from as far west as the MissisKippi us well as those neur the (iulf of Mexico send tiieir products to Pittsburg, and the latter two have the bast ot the coniost, as they have ail unlimited supply to select from. The in.'inuliictuio of lumber in Pennsylvania is lust coming to an end, but the people win not sutler lor lumiier, as there la enough in sight lor the next 20O years at least. John F.
