IF there be criminals in the United States Senate they should be promptly ex- pelled before the extra session adjourns. eee A CAREFUL study of the appointments made by this administration brings out the fact that *‘ex’s” arc geiting their full share of plums. A sTrONG move will be made during the next few, years to consolidate Pitts- burg. Allegheny and contiguous hor- oughs, making a city of half a million people. This is a move in the right di- rection. WOMEN can now be Notaries Pablic in this state, a law to that effect having been recently passed and signed by Gov- ernor Pattison. Gradually and surely woman is geting squal rights with man, and it is well. Tue U. 8. Senate may contain a num- ber of criminals, but the time, place and amonnt of embezzlement have only heen specified in one case. Let that man be convicted or acquitted. Then it will be time enough to talk ahout the others. During the 11 months ending Decem- ber 81, 1892, the period during which the reciprocity treaty with Germany has heen ‘in effect, the exports to that country have been $87. :084,088, as compared with $81.- 226,487 for the 11 mouths of the preceding vear—an increase of $6.507,546. Tar Baltimore and Ohio Railroad Com- pany has succeeded in winning a con- demnation suit that gives it a clear right of way for its tracks into the grounds of the World's Fair at Chicago. The Illinois Central was heretofore the only road having an entry into the grounds. =Cum- berland News. - WHAT is personal liberty. anyhow? _ A judge has, in effect, decided that a rail- road emplove cannot legally refuse to work if his company orders him to do it. If that be law it isn’t common sense, ‘Carried to its logical conclusion, that de- cision would create a system of slavery far worse than that which once existed in this country. Art the recent term of Elk county conrt Judge Metzer, of Lycoming, being on the bench, the question was raised whether or not a hotel heeper had a right to have two bars in the same house. The court decided that as long as license had been granted without restrictions, the hotel keeper could sell liquor in every room in his house, if he desired to do so. and he could not be convicted of violating the law. ACCORDING to a late decision of Justice Paxton, of the Supreme Court of Penn- sylvania, Chief Burgesses of all horonghs incorporated under the general borough law are without right to preside at any meeting of borough councils, unless they are members of such bodies. Conse- quently, when the Chief Burgess is not a member of the the Council, the latter are obliged to elect a President to preside over them.—Ex. Ar a late session of the General Con- ference of the Seventh-day Adventists, the following timely and sensible resolu- tions were adopted: WHEREAS, In view of the separation which*we believe should exist between the Church and the State, it is inconsistent for the Church to receive from the State pecuniary gifts, favors, or exemp- tions, therefore, REsoLVED, That we repudiate the doctrine that | Church or other ecclesiastical propeuty should be exempt from taxation, and further, ResoLveED, That we decidedly protest against any such exemption, and favor the repeal of such legislation as grants this exemption. TaE marriage license law has been broadened so as to allow a license to be taken out in the county where the cere- mony takes place, or in any county where either of the contracting parties reside. This gives three places where application may be made. Formerly only one place was provided for—the county in which the ceremony was performed. There is no harm in thus broadening the act. It dors not hurt the main point of the bill— the registration of all people about to be married and the erection of safeguards around the marriage of minors.—Ex. THE following forcible and axiomatic paragraph, from a letter of Sir Edward Sullivan to the secretary of ‘the Tariff League, will be read with much interest: “The tariff argument is the same in all countries. It is very simple. It is that ‘employment is of more value than mere cheapness.’ Emplovment means Wages: Wages means money: money means the power of buying. Want of employment means no wages, no money, no buying; it means, in fact, ‘going with- out.” Everything is cheap, comparatively, for the man who has. money to buy; nothing is cheap to the man who has no money with which to buy. CLEVELAND'S gush, that he would not appoint relatives to office, is pure dema- gogism, as relatives ought to have the same show as other people. But Le is not honest, or he would recall his wife's cousin—Ben. Folsom—whom he had ap- pointed, during his former administra- tion, as Consul at Sheflicld, and who was permitted to remain there by Harrison out of “‘conrtesy” through the past four years, and is still there, drawing a big salary and doing nothing—incapable of doing anything, being a second James G. Blaine, Jr. Besides, almost every mem- ber of Cleveland's Cabinet has a son or other relative quartered on the Govern- ment in the best available position.— Johnstown Tribune. Dunning by Postal Card. There is an very general impression among merchants and others who are par- ticularly interested in the subject, that it is acriminal offense under United States laws tomail adunning letter written on a postal card. A person in this neighborhood worte to the First Assistant Postmaster General asking for information, and re- ceived a reply giving the decision of Judge Thayer, Dec. 14, 1889. on the wording of a postal eard that was mailable and one that was not. ‘ The mailable one read: ‘Please call and settle account, which is long past due, ard for which our collector has called several times, and oblige.” The unmail- able one reads: “You owe me $1.80. We have cabled several times for same. If not paid at once, we shall place with our law agency for collection.” The last sentence, it is stated. ruled out this communication. Postal cards are not mailable if they contain language of “a threatening character,” and it is a very serious threat to the average man to tell him that you are going to sue him, There is no law, however, to prevent vou from putting an X on your ecard fo let your debtor understand that you are real- ly cross with him.—Ithica Journal. Character in the Hands. “Small white hands for gentlemen may be pretty, they may be an indication. but to me they are only useful and interest- ing in one respect.” said Franklin Kinsey as he nervously trotted to and fro across the corridor of the Lindell. ©T is that they help. me to keep away from the owners of them. When I see the hands, I ean tell whether or not I care for an introduction. I have visited the salons of the diletdanti of most of the great cities of the world. and I have found that small white hands on men are good danger signals. Yon ean al- ways tell the nand that hag Inbored. It's a legacy of honor that nature sees fit to decorate a man with. I used to take pleasure in shaking the hand of every man, but the small, white hand is cold, its grasp is weak and the action half- hearted. I have become a crank on the subject. I stroll through the halls of the rich, where one finds gathered the elite, and search constantly for rough, large hands that some one is trying to conceal, nervously fidgetting with, not knowing what to do with them, they look of snd- den so large, sticking out from clean white cuffs. When I have found them. I have found pleasure for the evening. I have found some one who is broad and inter- esting, some one who cannot talk on the little topics of of the hour, but who lets slip now and then answers clear ent and meaningful that chime ill with the sur- roundings, but well with the soul, I may be a cynic and a crank, but through 40 years I have tried to disprove my early conviction and have utterly failed.”— Exchange * A Late Citizen of Boynton Murdered. John P. Reed, a jolly, good-natured miner, who resided at Bovnton, less than a year ago went to Minersville, Ohio. and later on to Eagle, W. Va., at which place he had Tae STAR sent to him. We re- ceived a notice from the postmaster at Eagle, Wednesday, stating that John P. Reed was murdered and there would be no use in sending him the paper any longer. The time and particulars of the crime were not stated. We will enquire into the matter and report next week.
