Edward the Seventh will have plenty to do to keep hia empire up to a standard where it ran compete with American in dustry. Bktwkkn Mr. Cleveland's pessimism and Mr. Bryan's defeat the Democratic party is a tough place for a man of cheer ful temperament. Kino Kdwarh is sure of one thing, and that is a shorter reign than that ol his mother, lie would have to live to be 122 to equal that record. Cotton exports brought to this coun try $110,000,(10(1 more in 1100 than in 1809. A new gold district producing one-tenth as much would raise a great excitement. Ficvii.i tions to abandon the practice of hazing should nut be coiiilned to West Point, Tlire is much ol the coward, the bully and the brute in those who delight in torturing fcllow-studcnta in the name of fun. II 8 (Quay) started at once F r Florida where he neglects his duties. Shame! Only shame is the heritage of Pennsyl vania from his elevation. Clanon Dem ocrat. The Dtmoerat seems to be excited, and Is almoet as cra.y as the average insur. gent. An organization known as the Sainuol J. Tilden Club has been chartered in New York recently. The organizers and pro motors of the club are U rover Clevolaud, W. C. Whitney, David II. Hill and other gentlemen who are not In sympathy with the Bryan brand of Democracy. This club is to be an incubator and brooder ot true Democracy, and will ask the Tam many Club to take a back seat. Tub Senate finance committee has agreed upon a revnue bill which provides for a reduction of nearly $10,000,000. By its provisions taxes are to be repealed on the foliowiug: Promissory notes, mortgages, bills of lading for export, powers of attorney, protest, charter party, certificates of all kinds, leases, w arehouse receipts, telegraphic dispatches, telephone messages, passage tickets costing lees than:!0; express receipts, freight re ceipts, bonds except bonds of indemnity, legacies to religious, charitable, literary or educational institutions; commercial brokers. In the Connecticut Labor Commission er's annual report to the Governor it is stated that the highest average wage rale in any classified industry in this State is $X23 a day in a certain machine shop, and that tho lowest rate paid waa 55 cents a day in a hosiery and knit goods estab lishment, where girls are employed. The total amount of wages paid during the last year in 614 establishments was $38,6;ij,tH."i, an increase of 8 per cent, over what was paid in lS'.ifl, and an increase of 17 per cent, more than was paid fur the lour years next preceding. Brooklyn Standard- On on. Al.THuuiiH the punishment of Prince Tuan and General Tung Fu Hsian has not gone beyond the promissory stage, the Empress Dowager of China has an nounced her inability to proceed further than she had already gone in the matter. The Phila. Record is of the opinion that the good old lady's notions of the rela tions between promises and performance appear to be very similar to those of "Dick" Steele, who when he bad sum moned his creditors and given each note of hand for the amount due him heaved a sigh of relief and exclaimed: "Thank God, that is settled I" Thk states which are now controlled by the Republicans gain nineteen of the tw enty-nine extra members of the House of Representatives and of the electoral college which the Burleigh reap'iortinn nient measure provides, and those now swayed by the Democrats get ten addi tional members. The division is as fair, however, as could have been made, and no Democrat opposed it on the ground that it would discriminate against Lis party. The Republicans are in the as cendant throughout the country, and any scientifically fair reallotrnent of members under the cencus of 10O0 would be sure to benefit them at the expense of th Dem ocrats. At a recent term of the court of com mon picas of this county, practically two days' time was consumed in the trial of three cases, in which the verdicts wcro for tl', f-4.6-1 and 8.33. The fees of thejury men w ho were necessary to the trial of those cases amounted to over $200, or Dearly twice the amount of the combined verdicts, which must be paid by the county, to say nothing of the time of the learned trial Judge, court stenographer and other incidental expenses. No re duction on the court is meant, for he is powerless, under the existing law, to pre vent these things. But it does seem as though the legislature might be alilo to devise some means of keeping such small ea-cs on! of ihe county courts, since no litigant can carry on a cao without be ing to an exper.so greater than the amount of the judgment in two of the cases mentioned. The trouble with such ca-cs is that they are too frequently ap pealed from the decision of the justice of the , not lor the purpose of nbtnining justice, hut out of petty Kpitc and Ihe desire to put the opposition to trouble ami expense in securing his Just dues. TitHnrillt World. ' Fire Republic!! Senator. "There remain six United States Sena tois to be elected, and fiyeof them should he Republican. Tho people decreed so when they elected Republicau majorities in Ihe Delaw are, Nebraska and Oregon legislatures, and their wish should be obeyed. "The situation in Delaware has become chronic. It has lasted for six years, not only to the Injury of the party in that State but also in the nation. Tho Repub licans have been deprived of their right ful vote in the United States Senate and Delaware ol the representation Ihe Con stitution allows it. This anamaluus sit uation should end and two Republicans who will be a credit to the party and the State should be elected. In Nebraska the Senatorial deadlock has also continued two weeks, but while the signs of agree ment have not increased the election ef two Republicans before adjournment is highly probable. The Sooner it is accom plished, however; the belter. The Ore gon legislature is proverbial for dead locks, but some elements of discord pres ent in past years are lacking now and the election of a .United Statea Senator should follow, "The election of these five United States Senators is not necessary to a Rep ublican majority n the next Senate. There will be such a majority without them. Nevertheless, O' ery proper influ ence should be brought to bear to make these live elections sure so that the next Senalo cau begin its work with full ranks." The foregoing remarks from the Phila. iVr.w are quite sensible and to the point, showing that when that .paper now and then doea really have a lucid spell, it manages, by an almost superhuman eff ort, to raise itself above petty peanut politics. Thk late Lord Tennyson once pointed out an error of pronounciation that is very common in America. Augustus Hare, according to this anecdote, was one day introduced to Tennyson and took a walk in the garden with him, "how sweet," said M r. Hare poetically, "how sweet is the smell of the arbutus." "Yes, but why accent the second syllable?" asked Tennyson. "You put yourself bv doing that on the same plane of igno rance with the gardener, who says 'clema tis,' with the accent en the second sylla ble, when in both cases it should assur edly be on the first." Arbutus is accent ed on the second syllable in this country, bet the word conies direct from the Latin and in the Latin it is accented on the first syllable. It seems, therefore, that the English poet had good authority for his claim. te" The- Kansas City Journal says tint Maj. John II. Parker, of Sedalia, Mo., who is now serving with his regiment, the Thirty-ninth, in the Philippines, is the person alluded to in the testimony be fore the West Point Investigating Com mittee as the "plobe" at the military academy in 1888 who was never hazed owing to the fact that ho whipped every cadet that was pitted against him thirty altogether, and five in one day. The Major was a "plebe" in 1888, and it is kuown that be furnished some very un pleasant surprises for those who under took to haze him. When he entered the academy be was a big raw-boned six footer, as strong as an ox. and ready to light at the drop of the hat. Major Par ker won fame on Cuban battlefields, where he was in charge of Ihe Gatling guns that wrought such havoc among the Spaniards. Bryan is not frightened at that aspira tion that "mine adversary bad written a book." His weekly book, the Common er, is to make its appearance in few days, and it will be all Bryan. An im mense list of subscriptions is announced for the initial number, but this can be relied on to shrink Just as soon as the novelty of the venture wears oil". The country will get a weekly dose of Bryan in his paper so long as it continues to be published, but the chances are that this will not be many years. When it begins to appear that Bryan is no longer a nom ination possibility the subscribtion to his paper will shrink. It will probably be easy for him to give so much ol himself to the public and with such frequency that even that part ol the public which has supported him hitherto will get tired of him. It is safe to predict that the days of the Commoner will not be very long In the land. Th k recent decision of the Supreme Court sustaining the constitutionality of the act of 1WI9 classifying the townships of the Coniinonwealtb is one of real im portance all over the State. The act was passed for legislative convenience, for the same reason that cities are divided Into classes. It provided that all townships having a population of 300 or more to the square mile should constitute the first class, and all others the second class. It prescribed a form of government for each. The act has been attacked tin constitution al grounds ever since it was passed, and the lower courts have not been agreed about it. At least two Common Pleas Judges have declared thai the act was unconstitutional, but Judge Sharer, of Allegheny County, took a different view, deciding it to be constitutional. It is Judge Shafer's opinion that ti e Supreme Court has affirmed and thus definitely settled the question. Kon years "Bill" Flynn and "Chris." Mugce have been absolute autocrats of I'ittsburg and Allegheny. They own the Mayor and city councils, control all leg islation, dictato evory appointment, de cide the letting of every city contract, carry overy municipal election, and are rflliug in the wealth derived from their bossism. These gentlemen have long been raising their videos in the legisla ture for "reform.'' They're ne w in a lair way to get it. Senator Muhlbronner has introduced into the Senate a bill that rips Ihe whole F'linn-Magee regime out by the roots. It empowers the Governor to appoint a Mayor within thirty days lor each city of Ihe second class, to hold office until 11103. The Mayor shall ap point heads of departments. Tho bill provides a civil service for employes, abolishes a lot of sinecure offices, and puts every person on the payrolls in the direct charge of the Mayor. The bill has passed first reading in the S nate, and Is considered sure to pass the House. fYanklin Spectator.
