The Pit's bnrg and Western will be used to I.otler, the Allegheny and Shenango to Mercer, from thence the road will be extended to Fruukliu, where it will connect with the Western New York and Pennsylvania, making tbo route to Buffalo 239 miles long.

The two wine cellars under tho old bi'ek houses at the corners of tho square must be seen to be appreciated. Tbey are both ebout fifteen feet deeo. Tho ono under 'he build ing now "occupied by I)r. Redmond, is about, 40 feet long by 20 wide and tho ono under the building now occupied by Mr. Sliver is a liitle sraa"er. They a-o neatly floored with stone, anil their ceilings are s tine arches that will probably stand as long as this portion of tho Earth's surface remains iutac'. They were built by tho Hannou'tes at least eighty years ago, and they aro to day es perfect as they WHO when just completed. Of the old brick bosses, around tho square, all are in a good state of pre.ierva ion, excepting tbe front of tbe one occupied by Mr. Stiver— the bricks of wh'ch were too soft and aro crumbling. The bouse, in tho rear of tbo Beam House, now owned by Jacob StaofTer is as good as tbe day it was built. The Iteaui House was a'so originaly built by tho Harmonites but it has been remodeled anil rebuilt, and Sam. has kept on improving it until it is now one of the' host appointed hotel* iu tbe county. About a hundred Republicans got a good dinner thero last Tuesday, and they are not slow about say j ing so either. Tbe old brick church, also \ built by tbe Ilurmonites, with clock tower I and old iVatu is also worth looking at. ! Stop off at Harmony soma day end look at J these tliiugs. Accidents.

It begins to look as though ,b« oil pro ducers meutit business nud would establish a pipe line and re finely owned nnd operated by themselves. Why they shotld do so is apparent to all—all the pipe lines and te (lneties at present ill operation are owned by one eonee a, which regulates the price of crude oil to st'St itself. Mr. T. J. Vandergiilt in quoted on the subject a* follow*: "Producer* of oil am Justly nlnimed at their evident dependence upon the one buyer of their ci >ule product, .lie apparent power ami seeotlti* purpose of the monopoly to at'i|ot|e nb*olute control of production and *o rvgu'a e price* a* to *<|ttcete the I 1 e blood out ol the producing li4a*ne**, No doubt some of the mom favorably located pioducei < w|t| take steps at an eti.ly dtiy to neCtire a legitimate \itlufc for their' oil by piping and m.'.ning the *nme •'One of the tlist T|U«*HoM» a»k«d about a new enterprl*e U'Uaily I*; "W'hete U the maiketl' t'.tu you answer lhat i|in>*Uonf "The market for rellned product* will he found ttmonion? fitl.tioo (100 people at home and the extorter* I think individual ell'ort on the part of the pM proclaim these effort* as an interference wi.h what they term 'our business.' In former deys tbe argument of the monopoly in dissuade »rod uueifl frvln ongnging iu tbe busiaee* of reiining oil was lhat it 'never produced a hat eel of oil or cuuroached ou the pro ducer's legitimate business.' Now Ibat argument bus gone gliipmoii.ig like many o.her of its saintly protesta.iou*. "How is the present outside refiner nffeotedf "The outside refiner's interests are identical wiih those of the ntUside pro ducer. lie must maintain the outside pro ducer, go into the business [of producing himself, or be at the mercy of tbe monopoly for bin supply of crude. It is not hard toseo where tli»t would land him. Another thing, while the monopoly is tbe only buyer and reaner of crude, the price for refined can havo no effect on tho price of crude, except at tho pleosiiro of this single buyer." Tho Slaudaid pipes the oil to Sew York and Cleveland, and icfines it at those points, uniting coal lor fuel—and it ban be come one of tbe wealthiest corporations in the world. Tho proper place to refine the oil is in tbe oil oiul gas producirg country, isiug gas for luel. Refined o'l is trans' ported in ba-rels anil by rail, and as far a.; we can see Butler would be just as advan tageous a location for an oil refinery as thero is in tbe oil and gas producing terri tory.
