THE SUREST ROAD TO WEALTH IS THROUGH LIBERAL ADVERTISING-!
A READING BOOM.
The deal made by the Philadelphia
& Reading Railroad Company with
Coxo Bros, was a glgautlo one and will
ultimately result in putting the former
in a moat prosperous condition. By
fcho agreement of Wednesday tue
Reading is to receivo the entire an
thracite tonnage of Coxo Bros. & Co.,
for a period of thirty years. At the
same time we are informed thut, as
consequences of the agreement, a
Tamaqua, Hazleton & Northern Rail
road will bo formed and the Reading
will have its own line to "WHUea-Barro
and Scranton within two years.
It now looks as if the Philadelphia
and Reading Railroad has at last
struck a trail that will ultimately lead
it to prosperity. For years it has
dragged along in a half-dead state,
active only when attempting to de
fend Itself against the more aggressive
Lehigh Valley and Pennsylvania
roads. But now, with renewed vigor,
it steps forth to push and win.
It is the young blood and brains in
the Reading management that is do
ing this. President MoLeod has
' sifted the old hulk thoroughly and has
shown those dependent upon his man
agement that to regain its place in the
railroad world tho Reading must
"strikeout" and take the aggressive.
The steps already taken must be high
ly gratifying to the stockholders.
We envy the Hazleton region, but
we cling to a hope that tho Reading
will soon show the same aggressive
spirit in-this seotlon and practically
demonstrate to us that 1c intends to re
gain its long lost laurels.

over tho efforts of honest-minded tax
payers to call him to account, and his
courageous (?) defense by unscrupu
lous and conscienceless maniacs, who
thought to fool the people, the robber
chief wasurled from power by an
outraged public, and the world knows
the balance of the story relating to his
ignominious end. AU of which goes
to show that some public officials are
not always what they would have the
public believe even though they "are
the people" and are to the manor
born. Anyhow it is a foolish policy,
as Boss Tweed learned to his sorrow,
for public officials Jo seek to explain
thoir public acts by striking a don't-care-a-d
in attitude or to rely for de
fense upon the purchasable columns of
rickety sheets sometimes called news
papers. We hope there are no Bill
Tweeds In Shenandoah and that tho
town will never have any. But when
we sometimes listen to and look upon
some of our public officials we are
tempted to yield to a senBe of fear that
our confidence may sometimes be
shattered. And this feeling on our
part is intensified when we hear offi
cials mako threats of discontinuance
of patronage in order to stifle the
press.

oral Statute Interesting
for Business Men.
The legal holiday laws of the state of

visions relating to the Saturday half-holidays
which should bo well understood in

pose of protesting or holding liable any
party to a note, draft, etc, which shall not
have been paid by 12 o'clock, a demand of
acceptance or payment may be made at

may bo given on J,ho next succeeding busi
ness day. Another is that any person re
ceiving for collection any chock, draft",
etc., shall not be deemed gujlty of neglect
for not presenting Buch papor for payment
or acceptance on that day. "While tho

men to be well advised of the changes
mado by the new statute.

Ever Was The Matter
Fully Discussed.
By National I'rcts Association.
Washington, May 23. Secretary Tracy
in an interview about published state
ments casting doubts upon Secretary
Blaine's real condition, mentally and
physically, denies emphatically the truth
of such statements, "and any statemont,"
ho said, "that Mr. Blaluo is not as strong,
sound and alert mentally as ho ever has
been does him grave Injury.
"Tho Inst timo I saw Secretary Blaluo,"
he nddod, "only a few days beforo ho left
for Now York, wo wero together a long
timo in consultation over a most impor
tant public document. It was criticised
and discussed nt groat length, and I havo
never seen him when ho npponred to bet
ter advantages than he did on that occa
sion." Tho statement as to tho Secretary's
health was discussed in the Cabinet, and,
while there was no divorgonco thoro from
tho general opinion as to tho character of
the publication, novorthloss somo of tho
Cabinet members were inclined to think
that tho misleading statomonts given out
from day to day in regard to Mr. Blnlno's
condition 'were largely responsible for
tho publio uneasiness.

New YonK, May 23. Emmons Blaine,
when asked rogardlng tho reports about
his father, said: "Tho story is a lio and a
gross misrepresentation. Any denial of
it would bo almost useloss, as tho state
ments nro merely gonoral and refer in a
great degree to what Is past aud gono."
Young Mr. Blaino wont on to say that
in his opinion the wholo story was tho
result of personal s; ito. His father, ho
sold, was simply the victim of over-work.
Regarding the statement that tho busi
ness of the Stato Department suffered on
account of tho mental inability cf its
chief, young Mr. Blaino said that tho
official records of his fathers ofUco would
completely dlsprovo such a grouuloss as

to tho quarterly pension paymonts, duo
June 4, aggregating 20,000,000, Secre
tary Foster says that ho does not antici
pate any difficulty in meeting the de
mand. He had no doubt but that tho ro
coipts over tho expenditures wou.d bo
sufficient to meet this amount. There,
was already on hand nearly $16,000,000
surplus.
Thore would bo no necessity of calling
in tho deposits held by the National
banks on account of the Government to
meot pension obligations. Tho amount
of Government funds on deposit with
National banks was $23,000,000.
Tho Secretary thought it likely that an
opportunity to renew tho $50,000,000
4 1-2 per cent, bonds would be giver? to
the holders of sai'd bonds, after Sopt. 1,
nt tho rate of not moro than 2 per cent.
He had no doubt that definite steps
would bo taken in tho matter in a short
time.
With regard to tho shipments of gold,
Secretary Foster said that it con
clusively showed that tho credit of the
United States could not bo shaken by
any drain upon it.
