Harrisburg Notes.
At the request of Gov. Pattison, Auditor
General McCamant made an estimate of
the receipts of the state for tho next two
years; and his estimate for the year begin
ning June 1, 1861, is $7,696,000, and for the
year beginning June 1, 1892, $8,844,000.
If this is anything near correct the Boyer
bill will increase the revenues of the state
but little over a million dollars; tho re
venue for the two years will amount to six
teen and a half millions, and Gov. Pattison
will have to yeto about six and a half
millions of appropriations to keep things
square.
Gov. Pattison is determined that Prof.
Snyder of Indiana Pa., shall be State
Snp't of the Public Schools, and will urge
the settlement of the matter before the
Supreme Court. He is said to be of the
opinion that the schools of Pennsylvania arc
lagging behind those of other states, and
wants to begin reorganizing and improving
at the top.
There is a difference of opinion between
State Treasurer Boyer and Auditor General
McCamant as to the amount of revenue
that will be raised by the new revenue bill,
Mr. McCamant says the revenue will be in
creased but #1,000,000 over the present
amount, and Mr. Boyer says the increase
will be over $3,000,000.
On Monday the Governor signed the
Boyer Tax bul, the act creating a State
Banking Department, and other bills as
follows. Permitting any person having a
contingent interest in or a mortgage or
judgment lien upon any real estate, and
not being in possession of the same, to
prosecute a nut at law equity to prevent
waste upon the real estate and to recover
damages for waste; making appropration
ol *1,887 for balance due for witness fees
and other expenses of the Osbourne-Devlin

Jefferson township, Allegheny county; to
authorize Councils of all incorporated
boroughs to widen and deepen streams and
water courses, and to erect dykes and en
bankments; requiring a permit to be se

cremate human Dodies; providing for
monthly returns and payments from col
lecting of State, county and poor taxes; to

tion to the amount of $10,000,000 in the
aggregate; appropriating SIO,OOO to com
plete the publications of tho geological
survey; appropriation $12,000 to pay cur
rent expenses «f the State Board of Health
providing for the formation of a commiss

intermarried with citizens of other States
or foreign countries and been compelled,
through cruelty or other causes, to abandon
their husband; providing that the capital
Ktock of street railway companies operat
ing other than by animal power shall not
exceed SIOO,OOO per mile of track, securing
the right of sub-contractors to file mechan
ics' liens and prevanting interference with
this right of contracts; compelling county
commissioners to furnish office and storage
room for conuty school superintendents,
and the same day vetoed the city smoke
bill, mental disorder bill, two first-class
. city bills, and • life insurence bill.
On Tuesday, Gov. Pattison signed the
"Wholesale and Retail Liquor License bills.
The former increases the fee of liouor deal
ers in cities of the first and second classes
from SSOO to $1,000; fixes the rate in cities
of the third class at $500; in other cities at
S3OO, in boroughs at S2OO, and in townships
at SIOO. Bottlers license is fixed at S3OO
in cities, S2OO in borough, and SIOO in
townships. The bill will increase the
annual State revenues between $400,000
and $500,000.
The Retail Liquor License bill, which
makes the retail license rates the same as
the wholesale rates provides that all license
fees shall be paid into county, city,borough
and township treasuries. Under the law,
which the act approved amends, in cities of
the first class four-fifths of the license fees
were payable to the city; in cities of the
second and third class two-fifths for the
use of the cities and two-fifths for the use
of the proper county; in all other cities or
boroughs, three-fifths for the use of said
cities or boroughs and ono-fifth for the use
iff the proper county; in townships, one
half for the use of the township, one-fourth
fur the use of the proper county and one
fourth for the use of the State. In all
cities and boroughs the State received one
lilt hof the fees. The change in the dis
tribution of the fees will involve a loss of
about $400,000 to the State, and will add
to the county, borough and township fund.

The Producers' Organization.
The oil producers have organized a com
pany to transport, store, refine and market
their production. It is strictly a business
project, looking to the betterment of their
interests.
They believe that in the years past, tak
ing into consideration the many and great
risks of their occupation, they have not re
ceived, in the distribution of profits arising
from the oil business as a whole, their lair
and just share.
They have certainly a legal right to take
this step. There is nothing in it to invite
ridicule or condemnation. There is reason
able probability the venture can be made
successful; and. considering the situation it
is surely worth the trial.
It is envied to the favor of all who sym
pathize with efforts at self-help; all who be
lieve in commercial freedom, and hold that
the fields of labor and trade should be open
to every one to enter. It is even deserv
ing of respectful treatment by that power
ful company which to-day holds the issues
of life and death of the oil producing busi
ness in its hands.
To be sure, this or ganization will have
to run the gauntlet of the vicissitudes
which all business enterprises encounter,
and take its chances of success or failure
as any other, but to no greater extent.
No one can forecast the future. But here
at the threshold of its existence, proper
and commendable in its design, seriously
and deliberately entered into by a large
body of earnest and hopeful men, it appeals
to the sense of justice and fair play every
where for candid consideration. On every
hand it deserves a good word and "God
speed."
It is conceived in no spirit of hostility to
any one. It will be unfriendly to no inter
est save incidentally in the way of legiti
mate competition and fair bnsinoss rivalry.
There is no resentful, malicious, vindictive
feeling to be gratified. The sole purpose
is to better and build up a depressed in
dustry.
Of course, the newspapers that are the
recognized mouthpieces of the Standard Oil
company, whose interests will be thought
to be effected thereby, will see no good in
this organization of the producers. They
will see nothing but selfish motives in its
promoters, and incapacity, in its managers.
They will be full of pretended concern
1 for the welfare of the small producer, and
the general investors in the company.
And their columns will resound with wails
ot dismal prophecy. They will labor in
sidiously to foment jealousies, and prejudi
ces, arouse envy, and sow the seeds of
discord in the new company.
But tho oil producers know who arc and
who are not their friends. They are not
children to be deceived or influenced by
the artful arguments of their adversaries.
And the outside public will have decern
ment enough to realize the situation, and
place the rightful value on such utter
ances.—Warren, Pa. Mirror.

Decoration Day in Clinton Twp.
Decoration Day was fittingly observed
by G. A. R. Post No. 514, and the Citizens
of the surrotiding country at Riddles X
Roads, Clinton Twp.
The good citizens and their ladies furnish
ed a grand dinner, the quality of which
could not be excelled, and the spirit in
which it was served was. highly appreciat
ed, and will ever be remembered by the
large assembly of nearly six hundred
persons from all directions—north-south
east and west, including an area of at least
five miles each way.
The Jr. 0. U. A. M. from Sarversville
were in attendence in uniform, and with
a Martial band.wereome of the very pleasing
features of the assembly, and a very large
assembly of Sunday School Scholars an
other.
"While the ladies were arranging the table
of good things for dinner the v»rion«
cemetries were visited by committees of
the G. A. R. and friends of deceased
soldiers and their graves strewn with
flowers, and then the rich, and greatly
enjoyed dinner was partaken of by nearly
six hundred persons; after which the pro
cession was formed.
The Sabbath School of about two hundred
cbilJren led by Revs. Melhorn, Tannahill
and D. Cupps, came first and next in order
the Jr. O. U. A. M., followed by G. A. R.
Post 514 and by citizens, ladies and gentle
men perhaps one hundred and fifty or more,
making a very large procession. Stepping
to the Music of the Martial baud, under
the American flag, marching to the
eemetry of Westminster Church.
After the Ritual Memorial Service and
decoration of graves of fallen Heroes, wo
all entered the church,a large one, yet not
sufficient to seat all,but all were seemingly
comfortable and attentive to the fitting
songs and orations.
Rev. D. Cupps was invited by tho Post
to make the opening speoch and conduct
tho ceremonies; Rev. Tannahill was re
quesed to open with prayer, after which
Post commander A. Kratz called upon
Rev. D. Cupp» to make an address,which
was a brief and fitting one for the oc
casion. Rev. Melhorn, who has the power
to attract and interest and instruct, to a
great degree was the next speaker and he
was followed by Rev. Tannahill in a short
and instructive speech.
After which a young gentleman of Jr.
O. U. A. M. by name of White made a
short adress, very entertaining and much
enjoyed.
As we were about to close and the rain
was falling heavy it was suggested to re
main, and we song the good old song "My
county 'tis of thee, Sweet land of liberty"
followed by romarks from Mr. Wm. Lardin,
aged 84 years.
M. N. Greer was called upon, but tho
rain slackened and as it was drawing to
ward 4 o'clock, he excused himself. Mr.
Alvin Katz the Post commander and tho
officers, Esq. Cunningham and all the com
rades of the G. A. R. soWicrs and citizens
were active for the success of tho occasion
and although it cost labor to prepare for
the day feel amply rewarded by the great
interest and the appreciation manifested
by all the citizens, ami their action and
interest shall never be forgotten by the old
soldiers. The old soldiers feel that the
flag of our country is truly honored and
the union will be securo if every locality
displays so much patriotism as was shown
in Clinton township. May she live long to
continue her good wook, and God bless the
good ladies, who will always have the
soldiers' kindest regard.

YELLOW HAMSIKR.
Fighting For a Patent.
A remarkable instance in which the in- j
vention of a valuable patent is claimed by
several people is a case now in course ol
litigation in the United States circuit coart
in Pittsburg. In 18S0. J. B. Ford.the ere
sent head of the well known Ford plate glass ;
company operatedja -mall plateglas-factory
at Jeffersonville, Ind . just across the river |
from Louisville. Ky. Captain James liarlill
was superintendent of the factory. The
allegations in the ease are that at that time
there were only two known methods of
polishing glass." The one wa- by a polisher
working on a beam in a straight line. This
developed a line ofheat transversely across
the plate under the operation and the result
was that many plates wore broken. The
secoud method was by a polisher on a beam
having a peculiar oval oscillation. This
overcome the trouble with the breakage of
glass by the development of a line ofheat.
but no automatic way could be devised to
prevent the plate? of glas- from being
knocked off the machine and broken. By
each of these methods a man was required
to be pre.-ent at each machine and it took
from seventeen to twenty hours to poli-h a
plate and sometimes longer. Because ot
these slow and costly methods of polishing
and the price of labor, Mr. Ford was not
able to compete with imported plate glass
and the lactory was closed. In Cap
tain llarlin took out a patent on a machine
for polishing glass which overcame the ditli
culties of the former methods. In captain
Harlin's machine the oval oscillating mo
tioa is preserved, but instead of one beam
and polisher there are two beams and two
polishers. These work at the same time in
opposite directions. This arrangement pre
vents the plates lrom being knocked off the
rotary table and does in tour hours the work
to do which seventeen to twenty hours
were required. Besides this, the machine
works automatically and fifty men can do
as much work as olM) could by the old meth
ods. It is alleged that this pat«nt revolu
tionized the plate glass industry and made
it possil V t'i ii'ftko plate glass at, a profit
in tL.ii coantrv while competing in the
open n vkr 1 with the imported articles.
J. B. Fort! ia.i liately saw the value of
the invention a:. 1 took hold of it. It is
alleged that this machine made it possi
ble for the Fords to build and operate suc-
their large factory at Creighton
and Tarentum, and that had it not been
for his machine these factories would nev
er have been built. Strange to say Cap
tain Harlin claims to have received no
profit from his patent though other people
have made several fortunes ont of it. Two
years ago ho employed the A ttorneys Sf hov
er, who entered suit for him against the
Pittsburg plate glass copany, which i->
operated by the Fords and the Standard
plate glass company,of Butlei Pa,for dam
ages for infringement of his patents. Re
eentlv a commissioner was appointed by
the United States conrt to take testimony
in the case. Both the defendents are
fighting bitterly against Captain Harlen's
claim. In the testimony thus far taken
Kdward Ford, a man named Sweeney and
another named Sleeper claim to have in
vented the improved polisher. It is also
claimed that the machine is not patentable,
because the oval oscillation motion was
used for along time, and that all Captain
Harlin did was to put two beams 011 the
nachine instead of one. If Captain Harlen
is successful in his suit, and he appears to
have the whip handle of the case, he will
collect about half a million from the two
defendant companies. This suit is a test
one, and if it proves successful similar
suits will be entered against other firms
that have been using the patents, so that
the ownership of probably over a million of
money depends on the result of Captain
Harlen's suit. — Ex.
Change Demanded
The Butler Republicans, at their late
County Convention, depreciated the pres
ent delegate system of nominating Con
gressmen andStatoSenators.and demanded
the popnlar vote system, and call upon the
other counties of the district to move in
the same direction. After the experience
we have had under the present delegate
system, almost any other that could be
thought of would be preferable. As this
county has had the popular vote plan in its
county nominations for years past, its ap
plication to Congressional aud Senatorial
nominations, would be simple, easy and
natural. We apprehend there will be little
or no opposition to such change in this
county. Beaver Times.
Tin Wedding.
"Mr. ami Mr . George Uines, of
Slijperyrock township,celebrated the tenth
anniversary of their marriage 011 Tuesday
last, June 2nd. They live on the old
homestead of William Mines, about three
miles south of Centerville. About 9 o'clock
the friends and relatives of Mr. and Mrs.
Hines began to arrive and judging from the
well filled baskets ol provision which they
brought with them, they intended to stay
a day or two. The time was sp«>nt in
friendly 'chat' until dinner was ready. The
invitation to dinner was promptly respond
ed to and the table wa* soon relieved of
part of the weight which it sustained. Mole
than two hundred people partook. After
grace was said all eyes were turned to
ward the bride and groom. The bride
succeeded in cutting her cake, but the
groom failed to make any impression on his
and gave up the attempt amid the laughter
of the guests. It was a tin cake made to
keep till he got a silver one. After dinner
the time was spent as usual on such oc
casions.
When the afternoon was well spent, Mr.
0. N. Cooper called the people to order and
nominated Mr. A. G. Black for President.
On taking the chair Mr. Black made a few
appropriate remark and introduced Rev. J.
L. Cotton of the Presbyterian Church of
Centerville. lie made a few well chosen
remarks and concluded by presenting it
number of tine gifts to Mr. and Mrs. Mines.
Rev. J. C. Womer of the M. E. Church oi
Harlansburg in his usual modest manner,
responded in bchalt of the recipient.-. A
fine rocking, chair, a large lamp, anil an
agate tea-pot were among the numerous
gifts presented.
After the benediction by Rev. Cotton the
meeting adjouraed and all returned to
their homes well pleased with the
occasion."
OXK WHO WAS TIIEUI:.
Eloped to Butler.
The Pittsburg Tiwirs of last Monday told
the following story. Lawreaceville is all
agog over an elopement story which has on it
elements of the ludicrous as well as of the
romantic. Last Monday forenoon Miss
Nellie Joyce, daughter of John. J.
Joyce, a well known ex-grocer and
politician of the district, left her home at
321 Forty-third strict, in company with
Richard Kelly, on employe of the Black
Diamond Steel Work*. Kelly had hired a
buggy, and stated that he was going to
take Miss Joyce to Sch mle.y Park. Instead
of doing so, this pair drove to Allegheny
tind took a Pitt»l>urg and Western train
for Butler. They were under the impress
ion that they could be married if they left
Allegheny county, although Miss Joycs
was only 1U years ot age. Their hopes
were da.shed to the ground, however when
all the Catholic clergymen and atl the
justices in Butler refused to tie the nuptial
knot withont the consent of Miss Joyce,s
parents Kelly left his lady-love at a
hotel while he went forth to (ind a means
to get wedded. When alone Miss Joyce
conscience began to twit her, and she J cut
the following telegram to her father: "Ran
away Dick. Am very sorry. Please conic
and take me home. ,; 0n receipt of the
telegram Mr. Joyce at once started for
Butler, when he arrived late Monday night.
Meanwhile "Dick" returned to the hotel,
and Miss Joyce had experienced a renewal
of affection. The result was that, when
the angry parent reached Butler he found
not the penitent child he looked for, but
two very resolute young people, who de
clared their intention of getting married or
dying together. Mr. Joyce' finding that
argument was wasted, yielded like a sensi
ble man to the inevitable. On Tuesday
morning ho gave his consent to the wed
ding and the blushing Xcllie was united
to her Dick iu St Mary's Church.

The Pennsylvania Railroad's New
S ummsr Excursion-Route Book.
The Pennsylvania Railroad Kxenr-jon
Route Book for the -ea.-on of IK9I, just
from the press is undoubtedly one of the
most elaborate reference compendium issu
ed by the railroad company in the world.
The company this year ha- used new illus
tration printed on a very high grade of
paper,'while a decided departure from the
old cover heretofore binding the work is
seen in the new one, which is beautifully
illuminated, and would do crdit to the
brush of a Kossi, so cleverly French is it
in every detail. The new map embraces a
territory from Canada to the Carolina-, and
from the British possession of New Ilruns
wick to beyond the Great Inland I.ake<.
When comparison is made with this vol
nme of ~27'J pages, 100 illustrations, and
over 1500 routes, a book which enters its
year of manhood the first day of June. IS9I
and the tiny pamphlet of 24 pages and tCT
routes issued twenty one years ago by the
Pennsylvania Railroad, and considered at
the time a marvelous departure in railroad
advertising the growth is hardly credible.
