HARRIET E. GRIMM, Pres.
HARRIET M. LTTTI.E, Secy.
But twice during the time of peace
in this country has it become neces
sary for the government to make a
bond loan to meet the current ex
penses. These occasions were under
Buchannan and Cleveland when
both branches of Congress were also
under Democratic control. A great
effort is being made by Democrats to
avert the charge ol incompetency, br
eading attention to the fact that un
der Cleveland's first term the receipts
exceeded the expenditures. This
fact does not controvert our charge
From 1885 to 1889 the Senate was
under control of Republicans and no
Democratic policy was or could he
adopted. The revenue laws were
untouched and with the exception of
controlling the ollices, it made no
difference who was president. But
during the first two years of this
term it was different. It was Cleve
land and both houses of Congress
democratic. This generation has
had such an experience that it will
see to it that there is no repetition.
To 'lux Malt Liquor*.
The Cochrane bill taxing malt
liquors twenty-four cents a barrel of
thirty-one gallons brewed for sale in
the State passed finally in tlie House
Wednesday amid much excitement.
The vote in favor of the measure was
104, or only one more than a con
stitutional majority. The nays
were sixty-eight. The opposition
to the bill made a hard fight to pre
vent its passage and are well pleased
with their efforts. They MO confi
dent the measure will be killed in
in the Senate.
Laii|[ley'ii machine Bird.
WASHINGTON, May 20.—The
Langley flying machine, which flew
1000 feet on a trial trip some days
ago, is a marvel of mechanical inge
nuity, delicacy and symmetry.
Aluminum steel forms the greater
part of its frame. Its boiler and
engines weigh less than fourteen
pounds to the horse-power, and the
whole structure weighs less than the
original safety bicycle. The hori
zontal plane section of the body has
the contour of a mackerel, though
all its transverse sections arc circles.
The machine is about eight feet long
and the wings of fine oil-glazed silk
are at their widest portion not over
twelve inches across, with a spread
of perhaps four feet each. They
are the wings of thcdiagonfly rather
than of the gull, whose motion in
flying, Mr. Langley has studied so
closely. Around one of the private
rooms of the Smithsonian Institute
are arranged scores of bird wings,
extended, and exhaustive studies
have been made of wing motion,
bird flight and the action of the
feathers in flight.
At a trial flight of the model not
long ago, Pi of. Langley and Alexan
der Melville Bell witnessed it to
gether and when it sailed through
the air these gentlemen, well passed
middle age, danced with joy and
hugged each other in their exuber
ance like a pair ot'shool girls. While
Hiram Maxim has spent much mure
money than Prof. Langley, and has
been very successfully in producing
a flying machine. Prof. Langley's
work, it is believed, has proceeded
along more permanent lines.— Ex.
To-day, Memorial Day, being a
legal holiday, the bank and postoflice
will be closed.
Tbe income tax having been de
clared unconstitutional by the
Supreme Court the constitutionality
fo the Wilson tariff law is next to be
attacked by the alcohol lnanufac.
turess and importers. If they are
successful, it will cut off $10,000,-
000 more revinue. Before these cou
testl are ended this Administration
will be nearly outlawed.
Lycoming County Centennial Exposition Building.
Above is reproduced a prospective view of the proposed exposition building, in which articles of historical and nntiqu
ariin'interest will be exhibiied during the summer. The structure is of brick, one story in height, 65 feet frontage on Pine
street, extending 200 feet 011 Fifth street. The contract for erecting the structure has been let to D. P. Guise for $5,500.
The building will be completed by Juuc 15 next, under forfeiture penalty of SSO per day, with $lO bonus for every day that
it is finished prior to tiiat dale. It lias been leased to the Centennial Asiociation from June 15 next to March 1, 1890. It is
the purpose to turn the structure into an armory at the expiration of the Association's lease. The plans are by Waguer & Reit
meyer, architects, of this city.
