Postal Telegraph.
The strike of the telegraphers and
the consequent interference with the
business of the country has revived
discussion of the postal telegraph
question. The sentiment of the press
which reflects the opinion of the pub
lic, is generally in favor of the estab
lishment of a Government telegraph
service. Charles Sumner, October 12,
1875, delivered a lecture in San Fraa
cipco on the postal telegraph, wherein
he said that we must look to a Gov
ernment telegraph system as the only
effective remedy for the evils and bur
dens of telegraph monopoly. One
straight blow of legislation, he said,
and the reform is established and ren
dered as enduring as the Republic it
self. Senator Edmunds, on the floor
of the Senate, and in an article pub
lished in the North American Review,
expressed the hope that the day was
not far distant when the postal tele
graph would exist in every city and
village of the country.
The report of the special committee
to the National Board of Trade in De
cember, 1880, after an examination of
the unsatisfactory service, high charg
es and frequent consolidations of the
company which hasenjoyed a monopoly
of the telegraph business of the United
States, recommended the establishment
of a postal telegraph. The report made
to Congress March 3, 1883, by the
committee on Post-offices and Post
roads, with a favorable recommenda
tion of a bill authorizing the appoint
ment of a commission to examine into
the telegraph system of the country,
gave a full history of the many consoli
dations which the Western Union
Company had brought about by the
use of annoying litigation, and con
cluded that, although there had been
an increase of the Western Union
capital from $40,000,000 in 1880 to
$80,000,000 in 1881, a diyidend of six
per cent, bad been paid on the doubled
capital and a surplus accumulated, thus
proving that telegraph rates could be
reduced by the construction of lines for
cash. The act of 1866 gives Congress
the power to purchase at an appraisal
the property of companies assenting to
its provisions, among which companies
•was the Western Union.
A postal telegraph was established
in England in 1869. In 1881 the
the length of wires was 121,000 miles.
The number of despatches sent in 1881
was 31,345,861; the gross receipts,
£1,633,884 ; expenses, £1,305,006. The
price of a message of twenty words to
any part of the United Kingdom is
twenty-five cents, while in Canada it is
five cents lower. In 1882 Mr. Fawcett,
the postmaster general, seconded a
motion in the House of Commons to
reduce the rate for .domestic telegraph
ing from one shilling to sixpence. In
1881 the Western Union Company
operated 327,171 miles of wire and
transmitted 32,500,060 messages. The
receipts were $14,393,543.85 ; the ex
penses, $8,485,264.13. In England,
Germany and other European countries
the postal telegraph has reduced the
price per message and proved profita
ble to the Government.
The main objections to a postal
telegraph in the United States are that
it would add immensely to the patron
age at the bestowal of the party con
troling the Government, and that a
postal telegraph could only be attained
by the purchase of telegraph property
whose valuation has been greatly in
flated above its actual worth. The
Government could build telegraph
lines more cheaply than it could buy
the lines already constructed, but it is no
part of the business or policy of the
Government to injure the property of
individuals by becoming their com
petitors for the patronage of the public.
Should the Government erect lines in
opposition to the Western Union, as
has been unwisely suggested, the ser
vice and business would both bo un
satisfactory. As it is with the mails
it must be with the postal telegraph.
To be successful the Government should
control the entire telegraphic system of
the country.
But until the civil service of the
United States is so thoroughly pro
tected from the shifting of political
winds that qualifications, merit, char
acter and general capacity to perform
the work at hand form the criterion
which determines Government ap
pointments, and until permanence in
office is guaranteed faithful and capa
ble Government employees, there is no
assurance that the service of a postal
telegraph would not be less satisfactory
than the present telegraphic service.
The way to a postal telegraph is
through the establishment of tbp civil
service upon the firm basis which
guarantees the successful conduct of
private business.— Philadelphia Press.
Large Shipments of Arms and
Ammunition to China.
Five hundred cases of arms and am
munition were sent from San Frau
cisco last Thursday, on the Pacific
mail steamship Comstock. All the
cases were from Springfield, Mass,
and those containing ammunition
were branded "U. S. Government, 4
calibre." It is said during the last
eighteen months extensive shipments
of war material have been regularly
made to C. Schmidt, at Shanghai.
"Duriner that period 240,000 Spring
field rifles and 25,000,000 cartridges in
all have been forwarded, besides from
500 to 800 bales of cotton duck, suita
ble for tents, by express by each
steamer for China. The total value of
the war material approximates $5,000,-
000.
THERE is to be a half hour more
time in trains on the P. & W. road,
narrow gauge, between Foxburg and
C&llerj.
THE NEW RAILROAD REACH-
ES BUTLER.
Days of Interest to Our People
—The New Road Saluted.
Last Thursday and Friday were
days of interest to our citizens. The
fourth railroad had reached our town
and there was general rejoicing. 'I he
"Connecting Link'' was made, the
last spike being driven on Thursday
evening, Aug. 9. On the event being
known a general salute was given
from the whistles of the locomotives of
the other roads, by the ringing of bells
and other demonstrations of joy.
On the next day the new road carried
a large number of the State Militia to
Greenville, on the way to their en
campment at Conneaut Lake.
Thus has been opened another im
portant route to and from this place.
The connecting link connects us with
the main branch of the Shenango and
Allegheny Railroad, near New Hope
this county. This opens up to trade
and travel what is supposed to be the
richest part of our county in coal and
other minerals. In coal especially
large fields will undoubtedly now be
d eveloped and much additional busi
ness be done in that line. It will also
give a speedy and cheap communica
tion with Butler to the citizens of
about ten of our townships. The very
heart of the county it may be said is
now penetrated by railway.
A glance at the map and a calcula
tion show that to any one going North,
to Mercer, Greenville, Meadville or
Erie, the connecting link shortens their
travel about twenty-five miles. Green
ville can now be reached in about 60
miles, or less. By New Castle, or any
other present railroad route, it takes
about 85 miles travel to reach that
point. As Greenville is on the direct
way to Meadville and Erie it will con
sequently shorten the route to those
places about the same number of miles.
To Oil City, Corry, Titusville, and
other points North it will be just
about as short a route as auy other
that can now be traveled.
Much credit must be giyen to the
managers of the Shenango and Al
legheny for their energy and untiring
efforts to hasten the completion of this
road to Butler. Mr. Steele, the Presi
dent, and Mr. Blair, the General Su
perintendent, were frequently with their
men as the road approached this place,
giving matters their personal attention
and taking a lively interest iu seeing
the last spike driven. They are the
right men in the right place for rail
roading.
We presume a formal opening of this
new road will be had some of these
days soon, when we will have more to
say. In the meantime we rejoice with
our citizens at this increased evidence
of business aud future prospects.
Can Come by Rail.
The making of the Connecting Link
now leaves less than a half dozen of
our townships and towns but can come
to Butler by rail. The first road made>
Butler Branch, from Freeport here, ac
commodated to a greater or less extent
the citizens of Buffalo, Clinton, Jeffer
son, Winfield, Summit and Clearfield
townships, in coming to Butler. The
second road made, the Karns City
extension, accommodated Allegheny,
Parker,Fairviews,Donegal,and Oakland
twps., with their towns, as well as
parts of Clearfield and Summit twps.
The third road, made from Butler down
the Connoquenessing to near Evans
burg, (now Evans City), and now
know as the Pittsburgh & Western,
connecting at Cailery Junction with
trains for either Pittsburgh or New
Castle, accommodates, more or less,
the citizens of Adams, Cranberry, Mid.
dlesex, Forward, the Jacksons, the
Connoquenessings, Penn, Lancaster
and Butler twps., with the towns of
Zelienople, Harmony, etc. The fourth
and last one, connecting the Butler
Branch, or West Penn, with the She
nango and Allegheny road, will accom
modate in coming to Butler,in whole or
in part, the citizens of Venango,
Marion, Mercer, Slipperyrock, Cherry,
Clay, Center, Brady, Concord, Wash
ington and Worth twps., with their
numerous towns aud villages. This
leaves in fact but the townships of
Muddycreek and Franklin that it may
be said are not as yet convenienced by
the construction of railroads to Butler.
Their time will come next.
Now for Manufactories,
Now is the time for our people to
turn attention to manufacturing busi
ness. All we need is the introduction
of some good manufactories We have
everything else. Four railroads now
enter Butler and our population must
rapidly increase. The manufacturing
establishments that now exist are do
ing an excellent and extensive business.
The more recent one established, the
Glass Woiks, is doing a business be
yond expectations. A large lumber
business is done. The firm of the
Purvis Bros., bring in and sell an im
mense amount of all kinds of lumber
for building, fencing and other pur
poses. But we need other kinds. A pa
per mill, it is thought, would pay well.
We have all the material, and now alj
the facilities for iron manufacturing.
Butthere arc other kinds that might be
profitable. Our object now is to di
rect attention to this matter, and we
hope soon to hear of some new estab
lishments being introduced.
By Way of Butler.
The completion of the Connecting
Link, and of the Pittsburgh and Wes
tern roads to this place, not only make
Butler a central point, but shorten the j
former lines of travel from Pittsburgh ;
and this point to points directly North
of here. Heretofore the two routes
from Pittsburgh North, were either by
the Allegheny Valley road or by the
Pittsburgh and Krie road. The fol
lowing show the distances that can be
saved now to some of the principal
places north of Pittsburgh and of this
place.
From Pittsburgh to the City of
Corry, for instance, tLe miles to be
traveled from Pittsburgh, by way of
the Allegheny river valley road, are
177- By the Pittsburgh it Western
and Connecting Link, by way of But
ler, is but 102 miles.
From Pittsburgh to Oil City by the
Valley road is 182 miles. By Butler,
as aforesaid, is but lit miles. To
Greenville, from Butler, by way of
New Castle, is 82 miles. Now, by the
Connecting Link and Mercer, is but 57
miles. From Pittsburgh to the same
point a still greater distance will be
shortened by coming by way of But
ler.
The above are only a few of the
points north of bere that the distance
is shortened by way of this place. To
go therefore now from Pittsburgh to
Doints North, the traveling public will
BOOU learn to ask for tickets "By way
of Butler." And the same will be the
case in going South from points north
of here.
Bill Signed.
The Governor has signed the bill
fanning the State into new Judicial
districts. It is therefore a law for the
coming ten years,after Jauuary 1, 1885.
As we stated last week, this county is
made a separate district, but the
county of Lawrence is attached to it
for Judicial purposes. The difference
between this and the present arrange
ment is simply this: at present Butler
and Lawrence counties compose the
district, each being equal as ipcpihers
or parts of the district. Hereafter
Butler county is the district,
retaining the old number as
such. A provision of the Constitution
allows the Legislature to attach coun
ties not having the requisite population
for a district to counties that may have.
Under this provision Lawrence is at
tached to Butler, but given full and
equaj rights in the election of the Law
Judges, as heretofore. Two Judges are
allowed iu the bill, to be elected nejvt
year, 1884—but one of these Judges
must reside at New Castle, in the
county of Lavyrenue. So that really
the only difference under the new bill is,
that heretofore, and now, Lawrence
county is a component part of the
17th district; while hereafter (after
January, 1885,) she will be merely
attached to this, the 17th district, for
Judicial purposes.

THE coming Ohio election, in Octo

The Republicans are hopeful, and the
Scott law, which makes saloons and
drinking places pay their share of the
State taxes, is working well and grow
ing in public favor.
COL. JOHN M. THOMPSON is entitled
to much credit for the earnest and ac
tive part he took in the location and
making of the Connecting Link road
to this place. As one of the directors
of the company he was untiring in his
efforts for the advancement of this im
portant improvement, AU our citi
zens, in fact, took a lively interest in
the work.
No Further Apportionments,
Up to this time the Judicial appor
tionment bill is the only one passed by
the Legislature. The Congressional
and Senatorial bills arc still on dispute
between the two Houses. We have
therefore nothing new to give as to
them.

The M. E. Ministers.
ERIE, PA., Aug. 7.—The topic
which official circles of the Methodist
Episcopal Church is most interested
now is the proposed change of the pas
toral term. At the meeting of the
Erie district the ballot was four to onu
in favor of leaving it at the present
limit—three years. The ballot in the
Erie district is a fair indication of what
the feeling is on the matter in the Erie
Conference, which embraces the coun
ties o.' trie, Crawford, Warren, Mc-
KeaD, Venango, Merc#?, Ciarion, Jef
ferson, Forest aud a part of liutlejt,
about two hundred churches Those
who are in favor of increasing the term
to fiV(3 years or longer contend the
clergyman's inability to become ac
quainted with the people; tbat ha /can
not carry out any plans or line of ac
tion In so brief a term; and that he can
not build up a churuh arouud his per
sonality or popularity, clergymen of
other denominations do. Those in
favor of the present »ystem claim that
the average minister, if left to himself,
cannot sustain himself longer with
profit to the congregation in charge,
and therefore the triennial change is
mad«) without friction, as it is a legal
necessity, to whicfr SIJ must submit.
The matter will .come up for action at
the next General Conference, wfcici)
meets to legislate for the Church next
May in Philadelphia, and H'bi/L-h is the
only ecclesiastical power that can make
the change.
