It is not a Free Trade law though it looks more toward Free Trade principals than any other. It is not a Revenue-Tariff law. It is simply a nondescript, made up of deals and compromises and open bribery. Its protective features are chiefly for the beuefit of the trustsi — notably the Sugar combine and the Standard Oil. It Las not given work to one single American toiler but has robbed thousands of them of the employment they had. It has not raised the standard of wages in a single American industry, but has lowered it throughout the country. It has not opened a for eign market for a barrel of Ameri can pork or bushel of wheat or a dollar's worth of manufactured goods, but has destroyed a consid erable portion of the foreign markets already possessed by Americaus. It has not brought a dollar of money into the country, but has sent mil lions out. Ex-Mayor Smith of Philadelphia arrested (Jol. McClure of the Phila. Timet for libel, recently and the case was heard in the Phila. courts last week, when a verdict was rendered in favor of Smith to the tuue of $45,000. This amount, for the dam age done, was out of sight, but when it i9 considered that Mr. McClure with his attornies left the court room and quit the case, because a certain motion made bj McClure was not sustained by the court—the ver dict could not be otherwise. Another Halt Against the Times. Ex-Mayor Smith, Friday, began another action against the "Times" Publishing Company, Alexander K. McClure and Frank McLaughlin, this time in Common Pleas Court No. 4. At present there is nothing in the papers filed in the case which will tell anything except that a sums mons in trespass has been issued, but it is understood that this is the beginning of another libel suit against the paper based on the edis torial published the day following the verdict In favor of ex-Mayor Smith. Followiag In the "Times" Artele la Part. "Had Mr. Smith been a man of the clennest reputation, of the high est character, and stainless in nil his records as public official and citizen, a fair-minded court and jury upon a fair trial, with no semblance of truth in the libel complained of, might have allowed a verdict of five or ten thousand dollars. Such a verdict would be justified by a wanton libel published agaiust a citizen of estimable character and probity of conduct, not only because such a character might be seriously injured thereby, but it would be justifiable upon the broad ground of exemblary damages which should be given in such case to restrain licen tious publications. But a verdict of $45,000 rendered in favor of a man who in the highest official position he held in the city was impeached for the misappropriation of public funds, and in an official mititary position was dismissed from the service for misappropriation of military funds, and whose subse quent reputation as a business man did not inspire general confidence could not be explained in any other way than by a startling clitnnx in the perversion of j ustice."— Times, 80000 bricks, finest quality, for Ml>>.

Maben and McDonald, sporting man of our town could have been seen leaving the village with knapsack and tisli bask ets strapped upon their backs. They returned late in the afteinoon. Fish cnught—Maben, 9; McDonald, 8. The boys desire it distinctly under stood that there were no chubs in either lot. It is estimated that our fishermen walked 18 miles during the day. Manufacturers of beer tnay have to pay sixteen cents a barrel for the privilege of making the beverage. The Cochrane bill making the tax sixteen crnts a barrel is still hung up in the House Committee on Ways and Means, but there is a movement on foot among the grang ers in the Legislature to have it re ported In view of the falling off in revenues from other sources. It is cl limed that a tax of sixteen cents per barrel would be more equitable than a fixed license fee, the theory being that the small brewers pay too much in comparison with large man ufacturers of the extract of hops and barley. Some one figures that a tax of sixteen cents a barrel would in crease the revenue at least SBOO,OOO. Tben and Now. Under a cons'stcnt system of Pro tection the revenue was sufficient for public needs, our workshops were thronged with well paid wage earners, and in our foreigh dealings we sold more goods than we bought. Under the present anti-protective law, general business and industrial prostraction has prevailed, the reve nue has fallen far below necessary expenditures, and the government's income climbs up towards its out go only as a result of larger import?, smaller exports, and a turning of the trade balance against us. This means depression in our manufacturing enterprises and dis comfort for workingmen who have been thrown out of employment or had their wages cut down. It means that under the new Tariff we have not only failed to capture the''mar kets of the world," but have actually suffered losses in that direction, as well as surrendered parts of our great home market. Such is Dem ocratic Tariff reform up to date. The record should be kept in mind, for it may be some time before the Treasury Department decides to give out any more figures for the information of the people on the subject.—Rochester Democrat. STEELTON, PA., April 22, 1895. Tlie works of the Pennsylvania Steel Company have not been as busy this year as they were last week. The summary shows a good product in all departments. The yards were never so crowded with loaded cars of raw material. It is estimated that over 1,100 cars are now waiting to be unloaded and the outside laborers are kept as busy at the work as is possible. On an average during the past year $120,- 000 have been paid to the employees every month. The average number of employ ees each month was 3,000 giving ea<sh employee an average of I3GO per annum. The mills ran 270 days out of a possible 313. The court ot Philadelphia has ordered a sale of the Pennsylvania and Mary land steel plants on May 15th; this sale is ordered that the transfer may be legally made from the old to the 1 new company. Upon the confirma tion of the sale by the couits the creditors will be paid and the proper ty transferred from the receivers to the new corporation. This sale will in no wise effect the working of the plants. The pay roll on Saturday, footed up $71,340 for the last two weeks in March....The prospect for building this summer is brighten ing np; several houses and a church are now under contract... .This ac tivity in business here was not caus ed by anything that the late demo cratic Congress and President has done, but by the hope of the great Republican victory that will be achieved in 1896 Senator J. D. Cameron is uow rusticating at his Lorhial farm residence just out side of this borough.... Measles have been the prevailing disease in this place for the last two months, but is somewhat abated; theie not being enough togo around Your cor respondent expects to be in your town during court and Memorial Uay week, on his vacation....The two electric railroads here are being very well patronized litigation be tween the two companies seems to have entirely ceased Gen.

The fact that a Republican Con gress is in sight is having a bene ficial effect upon the business indus tries of the country.

Forest fires are raging in the vicin ity of Eagles Mere, and unless we are favored with rain shortly, the flames will do much damage in that locality. A. T.
