If John B. Robinson, of the Ninth
District, takes his seat it will be in
violation of his oath to support the
Constitution, his term as a Member
of Congress having begun on March
4 last. The Senate will be presided
over by Lieutenant Governor
Watres, or in his absence by Sena
tor Gobin, president pro tem. E.
W. Smiley, of Venango Conntv, is
Chief Cleik. It will require two-1
thirds of the body, or thirty-four
Senators, to unite in an address to
the Governor asking the removal of
a State officer. The pay of the
Senators for the session, regardless
of its length, is SSOO, and they will
have mileage in addition.
The Republicans will carry Ohio,
lowa and New York states at the
Nov. election and in fact all states in
the United States are Republican,
except TEXAS, if the people' were
allowed to vote their convictions.
The fact of the matter is, the Demo
cratic corporations won't let their
men vote as they please. What a
disgrace to Democracy ? Such un
scrupulous heads should be pulled
in under cover.
The Republic," Senatorial Confer
ence met in Williamsport, on Wed
nesday to nominate a delegate to
the constitutional convention. The
meeting provetl a deadlock and was
adjourned to meet in Bloomsburg on
Thursday the 15th. The candidates
are, Brown of Columbia and Scarlet
of Montour. The Democrats are
also in a deadlock and adjourned to
meet in Williamsport on Tuesday
next.
The Republican conferees are : J.
J. Low, Fred Rogers and W. M.
Cheney. The Democrats are : Russel
Knrns and John G. Scouten.

The new Registry Law of 1891
was condemned by a large majority
of the convention and the extra
cost for said work estimated at
various amounts. In Allegheny
county Mr. Siebert said it would
cost fifteen hundred dollars more
than former years. In Sullivan
county it will cost between four and
live hundred more. There was a
resolution indorsed by the conven
tion afkir<: for its repeal. Should
the convention by its work be suc
cessful in having this worthless law
repealed they will save much for the
tax payers.
RESOLUTIONS REPORTED.
The Committee on Resolutions
submitted the following report:
After considering the various
resolutions submitted by the con
vention and its members, we hereby
report the following resolutions for
your consideration:
WHEREAS, the present depressed
condition of the farming interests of
Pennsylvania is largely caused by
the bad condition of country roads
at this time of year when the farm
ers should have every convenience
for handling farm produce.
R'e solved, That the ltcad Tax
Laws of Pennsylvania should be so
changed as to do away with the
present system of working out road
taxes and require all road taxes to
be paid in cash to the properly au
thorized ollicers. On motion by a
vote of 63 to 40, the resolution was
referred to the Memorial Committee
for presentation to the next Legisla
ture.
Resolved , That we petition the
next Legislature to amend the act
of 1844, taxing officers, post of pro
fit, professors, trades, occupations,
etc., by making a new classification
of the several callings of men, and
fixing the amount at which each
should be assessed.
I On motion of Atty. B. S. Collins,
final action on this resolution was
postponed. Mr. Collins stated that
! lie, in the interest of the Sullivan
county commissioners desired to
offer a resolution relating to the
' act of 1844 and was desirous of hav
ing it embodied in said resolution.
This resolution will be looked after
at the next convention of county
commissioners which convenes be
| fore the Legislature,
j Resolved , That the members of
. the Legislature be requested to pass
an act requiring constables to make
returns to the court at chambers,
whenever they have violations of
law within their bailiwicks to re
turn.
| On motion the resolution was
: tabled.
Resolved , That the members of
the Legislature be urged to repeal
; the act approved the 4th of May,
1889, limiting tie duration of the
I tax lien to two years from the time
of the levy or assessment unless the
same be entered of record in the
Prothonotary's office.
The resolution was referred to the
! Memorial Committee with a favor
able recommendation,
j H VERITY'S ACT GETS A BLACK EYE.
{ WHEREAS, The experience of the
; County Commissioners of Pennsyl
vania justifies them in condeming
the Registry Law of 1891 as crude,
impossible of execution in a large
majority of the districts of the
State.
Resolved, That we call upon the
next legislature to repeal the same
and reenact the Registry Law of
1874, which was repealed by this
act.
This last resolution was discussed
at some length, and was finally re
ferred to the Memorial Committee
with a favorable recommendation
for its presentation to the next
Legislature. The vote for the re
peal of the law was nearly unani
mous.
WILL MEET NEXT AT PITTSBURO.
The next business taken up was
the selection of place for next year's
meeting- The following places were
placed in nomination : Greens
burg, by Mr. Maxwell, of West
moreland ; Butler, by Mr. Humph
rey, of Butler; Scranton, by Air.
of Lackawanna ; and Pitts
burg, by Mr. Mercer, of Allegheny.
On the call of counties the rote was
as follows : Pittsburg, 73; Greens
burg, 28; Scranton, 22 ; Butler, 3.
The Democratic state ticket ap
pears to have fallen into a condition
of torpidity. Very little is heard of
it these davs. '
