There was no quorum in the Senate,
Thursday, and the Sergent-at-arms went
after the absentees. In the House con
gressman Brosius made a humerous speech
and read some poetry on the political situ

"Now the South is in the saddle and the
Bourbons rule the roost,
With their outfit of lree traders, cranks
Coxeyites to boost, .
As they strive to topple over thrift s tai.

And sit down on Northern progress in the
true old Southern way.
But the voters will be heard from ere this
devil's work is done,
With an avalanche of ballots that will
startle Washington. , .

from congressmen to bums.
And they'll hustle for their cellars

Cleveland did not sign the new tariff bill
nor yet veto it,and at midnight of Monday
night it became a law—the tariff, internal
revenue and income tax law of the country.
Cleveland did not even write a message to
Congress regarding the bill, but instead of
that addressed a letter to Rep. Catchings
of Mississippi, intended for the publio, in
which he expresses his disappointment at
the result of Democratic efforts to make
»nd pass a satisfactory tariff bill. He
says:—
"The trusts and combinations—the com
munism of pelf—whose machinations have
prevented us from reaching the success wo
deserved, should not be forgotten nor for
given. We shall recover from our aston
ishment at their exhibition of power, and
il then the question is forced upon us
whether they shall submit to the free leg
islative will of the people's representa
tives, or shall dictate the laws which the
people must obey, we will accept and set
tle that issue as one involving the integri
ty and safety of American institutions.
"The millions of our countrymen who
have fought bravely and well fer tariff re
form should be exhorted to continue the
struggle by challenging to open warfare
and constantly guarding against treachery
aud half heartedness in their camp.
"Tariff reform will not be settled until it
is honestly and fairly settled in the inter
est and to the benefit of a patient and long
suffering people."
Tub dailies o! Monday morning contain

which caused the people of several villages
to flee to ihe fields. There is always some
bad news.
A Barren Congress.
Before leaving for New York on his trip
to Enrope Congressman John Dalzell, of
Pittsburg, said:
It would be impossible for me, without
having made an examination of the record,
to undertake to itemise the legislation of
this present Congress. The most that I
can say is that, considering the length of
the session and the dominant interests at
stake, very little has been accomplished in
the direction of wise legislation in the in
terests of the people. Congress has been
in session for over a year. With perhaps
two exceptions, this has been the longest
session ot Congress known to our legisla
tive history. It ha 3 been peculiarly barren
of results. There are three conspicuous
measures to be mentioned and 1 know of
no others. In the first place the purchas
ing clause of the Sherman act has been re
pealed. This was the measure that seems
to have induced the calling of a special
session upon tho part of the President. It
was a wise measure, but could no 4 , have
been successful without patriotic Republi
can votes. I know of no instance in the
history of the country where patriotio, un
partisan action is more conspicuous than
in the passage of that measure. Republi
cans forgot for the time, in their zeal for
the popular interest,party ties and sustain
ed Mr. Cleveland in his effort to give to the
country a sate currency. The other two
of the three conspicuous measures are,
first, the repeal of the Federal election
laws, a thoroughly partisan measure,
whereby by Demooratio votes, fraud at the
polls has been made permissible.
This was in oonsonance with Democratic
pledges, but altogether against the inter
ests of lav-abiding citizens. The passage
of this measure does no credit to the Dem
ocratic party, bit, on the other hand, rath
er emphasiies its desire to secure perma
nent control of the government through
fraudulent measures. The second of these
conspicuous measures was the recent pas
sage ot the Senate tariff bill. This was
brought about by methods in the House in
violation of all parliamentary rules and in
such a way as to show that nothing would
be allowed to stand in the way of the Dem
ocratic party in its arbitrary exercise of
power to secure its own ends. In my
judgment, no more dangerous precedent
was ever established than has been estab
ished by the action of the House in its
gaasage of this Senate bill. Nothing can
e said by any Republican against the
Senate bill that will at all compare in con
demnation of it with what has been sail
by the Democrats themselves. The House,
by the mouth of its leaders declared again
ana again that the Senate bill never could be
passed,that its passage would be a surrend
er of the dignity of the House and a viola
tion of Democratic pledges. The President
declared, in his fetter to Mr. Wilson that
its passage would mean parly perfidy and
party dishonor. And yet, notwithstanding
all th is, it was passed amidst Democratic
applause. Take ont of the record of the
Filty-third Congress up to this time the
three measures that I have named and you
will loave it substmtially without a rec
ord.
One ot the measures is a wise one, so far
as wo are now able to judge; the other two
are simply disgraceful. All the rest of
the record of this Congress of more than a
year's duration may be put aside as waste
paper.
WHAT has become of Cleveland's back
bone.
The Income Tax.
The income tax is to be paid on the
"gains, profits and income" for the year
ending on the 31st of December next. —
The section imposing the tax reads an fol
lows:
That from and after the first day of Jan
uary, 1895, and until the first day of Jan
uary, 1900, there shall be assessed, levied,
collected and paid annually upon the
gains, profits and income received in the
preceding calendar year, by every oilizen
of the United States, whether residing at
home or abroad, and every person residing
therein, whether said gain, profi' or in
come be derived from any kind of prop
erty, rents, interest, dividends, or salaries,
or from any profession or vocation carried
on in'the U ulted States, or elsewhere, or
from any other source whatever, a lax of
2 per centum on the amount so derived
over and above $4,000, and a like tax shall
be levied, collected and paid annually up
on the gains, profits and income from all
property owned and of every business,
trade or profession carried on in the Unit
ed States by persons residing without the
United States.
The other sections relate to the enforce
ment and collection of the tax, penalties,
etc. As has been often explained, there
is no tax on an income below $4,000. If
the taxable has an income, say, of $3,000
he will pay 2 per cent, on SI,OOO, and so
on.
Cleveland and the Tariff Bill.
Me. Euitob.-W h«n President Cleveland J
as Commarder in Chief of the Army and
Navy called out the troops to suppress
anarchy, all good citizens, irresPMtir* of
party, approved his action, and cheerfully
gave him due credit for the laithful dis
charge of his official duty. .... ...
When he, as President and in his civil
capacity, attempted to intimidate Congress
—to stigmatize the legislation of an inde
pendent branch of the government as per
fideons—he earned thereby not only the
ill will of his own party but the contempt
of every independent citizen. It was the
first attempt in the history of this nation
of the executive to control or override by
an appeal to party fealty the free and con
stitutional action of the legislative branch.
Such action was humiliating to his own
party and disgustingly offensive to his po
litical adversaries.
His tariff bill was finally presented to
him for his signature, and, after the indus
tries of the country had been for
a year and more, he held it the full ten
days fixed by the constitution, and then
suflered it to beoome a law without his
approval— too timid to approve, too cow
ardly to veto.
Instead of sending a message to the
country Riving his reasons for his conduct
he wrote a partisan letter to Mr. Catchings
in which ha icstinctively seeks the gutters
of political filth and drags the robes of of
fice in the slime of partisan unoleanness.
In his letter—the well considered product
of the President of the United State*—he
says among other things:
"I do not claim to be better than the
masses of my party, nor do I wish to
avoid any responsibility which I ought to
bear as a member of theDcwocra<icor<7«"-
ization, neither will I allow myself to be
separated from my party.
"I take my place with the rank and hie
of the Democratic party."
"The livery of the Democratic taritf re
form has been stolen and worn in the ser
vice of Republican protection, and who
have marked the places where the deadly
blight of treaaon has blasted the counsels
of the brave in their hour of might.
"I love the principles of Democracy. I
am proud of my party organization.
Shades ot Jefferson and Jackson . Call this
letter a state paper, and its author a states
man. A ward heeler would blush to be its
author, while the nation mast fell and bear
the humiliation of the gibbering of a politi
cal clown, the vaporings of a disapointed
dotard. ]

At the Custom House.
There was a terrible crhsh of importers
on the initial day of the new tariff at the
Custom House at Xew York on Tuesday,
Aug. 28. They carried bundles of invoices
of goods that had been stored in bonded
ware houses in anticipation of lower tariff
duties.
Collector Kiibreth gave permission for
business to begin half an hour earlier than
usual, and at 8:30 o'clock the doors swung

full speed, heading straight for the with
drawal room. In a minute every inch of
space before the wire screen was crowded.
Papers were shoved through the little win
dows by half a dozen arms at once. When
that became too slow they were thrown
over the railing and fell on the clerks in
showers.
As a result of the overwhelming rush
and confusion, the receipts of cash were
not extraordinary. Cashier Bostwick took

would have broken the record. Each nay

Practical joking ought to be discouraged
it all times. It does no good, and often
does much harm. A few days ago, accord
ing to the Brockwayville Record, three
men went into a field to rake hay Con
cluding it was not dry enough to rake they
sat down to rest. One lay flat on the
ground, and the two others covered him
with hay. Soon a fourth maa, who was
examining the hay in another part of the
field, came along with a fork in his hand.
"Try that pile," said one of the men point
ing tJ the hay under which the fellow lay.
And promptly th» man with the fork thrust
it into the pile, only to be startled by a
yell from the man under it. A prong of
the fork had penetrated between two ribs,
the point entering his lung. Fortunately
the wound was not very severe, and the
man was around again in a few days.
Practical joking don't pay.

The Greatest Move Yet.
The Pittsburg dailiei this week con
tained the important and inte«estiDg news
that the charter asked for by the Brady's
Bend Coal & Iron Co had been granted
thorn, and for a capital stock ot $1,000,000.
Toe incorporators as previously announc
ed in the Review are C. 0. Billings, of
Boston; lerome D. Gillette, Isaac Fret-ze,
William D. Judson, Amos Tenny. Wayne
Griswold, of New York, and Win. J. Ham
mond, Win. J. Hammond, Jr., and W. E.
Tustin, of Pittsburg.
A meeting was held in New i ork on
Tuesday to elect officers tor the new com
panv and make preparations to open the
property to trade, at which Messrs. Isaac
freeze and Wm. J. Hammond, Jr., who
have been here for the past month having
the property developed, were present. At
the time of our going to press they have
not returned, and nothing save the ac
count* as given by the city dailies can be
given as to the latest devclopenienta or
what was done at the New York meetings.
The members of the Brady's Bend &
Butler K. It. Co. and the Brady's Bend
Coal <t Irou Co. are, as is well known, tne
same persons. The former was organized
and chartered to build a railroad from
Brady's Bend to Butler, with a capital
stock of $120,000, and the latter to devel
op the vast resources "f 0,000 acres of
land they own by the erection of manu
facturing plants, and the mining and
shippiug of coal, ore, limestone, and silica,
and capitalized at $1,000,000.
The latest reports state that the rail
road from Brady's Bend to or near Butler
will be commenced at once to connect
with the P. S. A L. E. R. R., and will be
16 miles long, which ha!> been surveyed
since spring. As soon as about six miles
have been completed the company will
commence mining operations. It is not
yet decided whether the company will en
gage in the manufacture of iron.
This meagre information is all that can
be learned at present, but whmi Messrs.
Freeze and Hammond return it is expect
ed and believed that something definite
will be known as to the intentions of the
two corporations, and that work on the
new railroad will be commenced without
delay and pushed to rapid completion.—

with two six-foot pay itreaks, and expect
a 20 barrel well.
The Forest Oil Company has completed
its No. 1 Heid at Glade Kun, and it is a
duster. The samo company's well at
Bridgeville has beeu drilled through the
fifth sand and found the formation barren
of oil or gas. It will be tested from the

Alex Wilson, who lives a short distance
east of Hazel Dell, leased a 90-acro tract
of land up the Slipperyrock. about four
miles above Wurtemburg.some four weeks
ago, and siuce then has been quietly drill
ing for oil. On last Monday, at a depth
of 150 feet, he struck what seemed to bo a
crevice in the rock, and a good flow of oil
soon filled the well and flowed out at the
top, doubtless forced up by a small quanti
ty of gas. It is now flowing from 12 to 15
barrels per day, and gives every indication
of a steady and paying production Since
the result of the test well has become
known.the people owning land in the com
munity haye become greatly excited, and
hundreds of oil speculators are visiting the
place every day.—New Castle 2feics.

through prosperity and adversity, when
God's work prospered and wheu it seemed

His pastoral work especially in times of
sickness aud death were peculiarly helpful.
Ever ready to visit a sick bed whether of
his own congregation or his earnest
