the State Agricultural College at Belle
fonte now is the time to make it public.
The legislative sub-committee, appoint
ed to investigate the management of
this institution, adjourned last Wednes
day evening after adopting a resolution
requesting all persons who have a
grievance or evidence of mismanage
ment to communicate with the chair
man, Senator Mylin, on or before
March 21st, when another session will
be held in Harrisburg The design is
to investigate as fully as possible, and
the management itself is desirous of
having any specific charges against it

also inquire into the way in which the
experimental farms iu connection with
the college are managed for the public

A bill has beeD introduced in
Congress looking to the restoration to
the public domain of nearly ODe hun
dred and tbirty-eight million acres of
land which were granted to twenty
three railroad companies under con
ditions which have not been fulfilled.
Thie bill will receive the approval of
the country, whatever its fate may be
in the national legislature. If these
companies have failed to keep their
contracts with the government there
is no reason why they should uot pay
the penalty provided when the con
tracts were made—namely, the for
feiture of the grants We should not
have one rule for railroad companies
and big corporations and another for
private individuals. Let the law be
enforced. This vast territory is too
much of a present to make to capital
ists who do not see fit to live up to
the terms of their agreements.
Une feature ot tue recent terrible
disaster on the Hudson River Railroad
has been common to so many accidents
on the rail that further neglect to legis
late against it will be unpardonable.
After the cars had been 'telescoped'
they caught fire and were burned, with
part of their living contents. Had
these cars been heated by steam from
the locomotive, as many other cars are
and all cars can be, there would have
been no fire and some of the victims
would have been alive to-day. F> re .
whether in stovos or independent steam
heaters, should be absolutely forbidden
on railway cars ; that they flow exist
is only because companies owning cars
are too mean or too careless to replace
them by the simple system of heating
by steam from the locomotive boiler.
To construct a stove that will resist
the crash of collision is simply impossi
ble, so every train that sustains a se
vere accident is almost sure to take
fire.

earth some facts that will give gossips
of Mew Castle a morsel of scandal which
will stand 'chewing' for seven days at

—One by ono the great puzasles of j
business and finance get before the !
courts for solution. The latest appears I
in the shape of a suit against Mr. W. !
H. English, late candidate for Vice i
Presidency, for alleged value of a lot j
of campaign speeches. Mr. English I
had paid the plaimant a hundred dollars, i
which may be his estimate of the value
of the speeches; or it may be the price
he was willing to pay to get rid of the
claimant, who asks for more than a
thousand dollars. Between the two
fjjms tjjere is so great a difference that
an honest jury msy lje compelled to
read all thespeecnes, thus putting their
own lives in jeopardy, unless tha
effusions are above the average. Should
I the speeches be bad Mr. English, being
a Democrat, should fye careful to exclude
Republicans from the jury, for to these
benighted souls a bad speech for the
opposition appears a good one, and they
might vote damages accordingly. If,
however, it could be developed by the
proceedings that political campaign
speeches ar« (ister,e(| to only by mem
bers of the speaker's own party, a»4
that consequently they are utterly
worthless, the country could look for
ward with more than usual courage to
the campaign of 'B4.
f —:Mr. Senator Sherman's bill for
funding two hundred millions of the
continued bonds at three percent., for
five years, seems to be a godsend to
all those Senators who have speeches
to make on the financial question, or
any other. It does not matter whether
their speeches have or have not any
j thing to do with the measure in ques
: tion They speak their piece all the
same. One belabors the Arrears of
Pensions Law; another abuses Mr.
Hayes; a third has a good word to
' say for silver ; a fourth has au iil word
for the national banks; a fifth demands
the Treasury reserves. But, with the
exception of Mr. Sherman himself, and
of Mr. Windom, who opposes the bill,
rot a single Senator thinks it worth
while to discuss the measure on its
merits. I( there is no rule of order in
the Senate to compel gentlemen to
speak to the point, their own self re
spect should restrain them from such
displays of logical incapacity as make
up these speeches. The only question
for the Senate to settle is the compara
tive wisdom of funding two hundred
millions in this way, or keeping the
whole amount within Government
reach for redemption For the former
policy, there is to be alleged the pros
pect of a great reduction in our natiou
|al income, which will make the re
! demption of more than eighty millions
a year impossible.— The American.
—This pension business will be
overdone very badly, if Congress
should pass the measures which are
now before it. It is proposed seriously
to treat as entitled to a pension every
man who served for as much as four
teen days in the War of Independence,
in the second war with Great Britain,
or in the Mexican War, and, if the
pensioner be dead, to recognize his
widow or his heirs as inheriting his
claims to what he would have received.
It is plain common sense that no one
is entitled to war pensions except sol
diers who received disabling wounds
or injuries duriug the war, and the
widows and minor orphans of those
who were killed in the war. This is
the rule recognized by every other
county, and it is the rule of justice.
Every pensioner is a burden upon the
rest of the community, either directly or
indirectly; and no such burden should be
imposed on behalf of men who did their
plain dutv as citizen" and who received
no material injury in the performance
of it. Any other ruie than this is uii
insult to the armies of the K<-pnblic,
and, if men sound in life and limb are
to be pensioned for takiug part in the
infamous act of public robbery called
the Mexican War, why not include all
those who served in the great struggle
for the preservation of the national
union ? That is, why not make one
million or so of able-bodied men public
pensioners and virtual paupers, at the
national expense. A disabled soldier
is uot a pauper for taking a pension;
a well man would be no* bing less if be
were to accept one.— The American.
— ROBBERIES in BEAVER. —Qn Mon
day night of last week, some thieves
broke into Mrs. McKernan'3 notion,
trimming and millinery store on Third
street, and stole about SSOO worth of
goods. Mrs. McKernan was away at
the time, but when she returned on
Tuesday forenoon and opened her store,
a scene of empty shelves confronted her.
The thieves had made nearly a clean
sweep and taken everything of much
value. No one saw or heard them.
Probably the same parties on Thurs
day night broke into M Anderson &
Son's store on the same street, opposite
and jnst a short distance west of Mrs.
M'Kernan's. A neighbor, Mr. Schooler,
saw two men trying to open the front
door of the store, but for some cause
failed to give anybody warning or
to frighten them away. They got into
the safe and found about sls, which
they carried away. They also took
two blankets and some few other arti
cles of trifling value. On the same
night Mr.Wilson's store opposite the
U. P. Church, was entered and the two
blankets stolen above were fastened to
the windows of the store, facing Mr.
Wilson's house, and the safe was blown
open. As no money was in the safe
the thieves got nothing for their
pains. Mrs. VVilion heard the report
of the explosion, but coukl not make
Mr. Wilson believe that the noise was
anything unusual, who attributed it to
the noise of a passing train. Constable
'lke' Lazarus with a search wsrrftnt, on
Monday went to the house of Wm.
Schell in Bridgewater, and was reward
ed by finding concealed there some of
the stolen goods from Mrs. McKernan's
store. James Noss was also suspected
of being implicated in the robbery,
Constable Lazarus arrested
the two chaps and marched them to jail
to awaita hearing to-day (Wednesday).
Wm. Schell has been in the peniten
tiary and is considered a hard case.
James Noss is but a youth. If they
are found guilty of these robberies,
Judge Hice will undoubtedly give then}
the full benefit of the law.— Argun and
