The United States Iron and Tin Plate Company are mak ing 1C0 tous.or say 2,000 boxes, amonth ; the Apollo Sheet Iron Works state , that -they are making 110 boxes a day; , Fletnl BanJ.con, of ' tsburg, - inhke about Be joxe'a, day; N. & G. iTaylor(of Philadelphia, 40 boxes; 1 Marshall Bros. & Co. about 100 boxes, InndNiedrlnghaussome60boxes. This tmakes a total of at least 340 boxes a iday a small amount, to be sure, but an earnest of what is to come. As to tho future: NIedringhaus is lac tu ally erecting works with tho capao Sty of 600 boxes a day, and will increase liis to 2,300 boxes.

It is time that tho American farmer and every other consumer realized the great economic truth, -that to provide a cortain market for the competition of home producers of the necessities of daily life economizes the charges in every branch of production and traffic In those goods, from tho crude materials to the retail counter at which he buys them. It Is time that he realized that home competition, as a rule, when Insured the first chance at the homo market, bestows all savings upon the ultimate consumer in the shape of cheaper prices for the goods. It is time that he realized that the amount of these savings in our country, due to the effect of Protection alone, far ex ceeds any, that could possibly be realized from so-called' "fre'e yaw ma terials," which we are eapabl of economically producing"- in this country.

BOROUGOPGET GLEANINGS BY THE LOCAL CORPS OP REPORTERS. WHAT THE SCRIBES SEE AND HEAR The Abduotion Case Settlod Tho Complaint Withdrawn Upon tho Mother Agreeing Not to Moloat tho Boy. Tho ca o of Mrs. Kllzabeth Cooper, who was charged with abducting her sixyoar old son, who had boen adopted by William E. Phillips, from one of tho public school rooms yesterday, has been settled. Mrs. Cooper, after some persuasion and argument, was convinced that sho would havo to resort to some other method to ro gain possession of tho boy. Mr. Phillips told 'Squiro Williams tht ho had no objection to rostoring tho child to the tnothor, but ho wanted it dono in legal manner. When bo was made the guardian of tho boy tho Directors of the Poor required bim to givo security for tho faithful porformanco of bis trut and ho insisted that tho mother should regain possession through the Poor Directors. Mrs. Cooper finally produced the child and turned him over to Mr, Phillips, who consented to n withdrawal of tho suit, This morning Mr. Phillips sent tho boy to school again, the mother having stipulated not to inlorfero with him again until sho has a right to do so through legal process.

SMITH, Candldnto for Sheriff on tho Re publican Ticket. rrom Glrnrdvllle Gazette." Tho nomination of B. J. Smith, our late townsman, by tho Republican convention for tho offlco of Sheriff, is woll bestowed and highly satisf ictory to tho pooplo of Glrardvillo and vicinity. As Mr. Smith was a pan owner at ono tlmo In this paper wo know him woll, and from what wo know ourselves and from what wo 1irvi learned from othors wo relate tho fallowing incl lonts of his careor : Mr. Smith was born in TmaqUR in 1818, and was educated In tho public school. Later he toak a buslnps courso In East man's College, of Poughkeepslu, New Yotk. John Smith, tho father of th nominco, located in Glrardvillo In 1PG3, At that early date 3on Smith, although but a boy, was employed nt Garrctson and Beatty's colliery as shipper and outside timi'kccper, Bnd alo for a tlmo at tho Glrard Mammoth colliery, Ravon Run, Leaving tho mines ho afterwards clerked for tho lalo Mr. William Haas, ho remained with Mr. Unas until the store passed into tho hands of Mr. John II. Davlos, in whoso employ ho was still continued. Mr. Smith early becamo active in local public affairs, and during tho timo of tho panic, when poople wore looking ovory whero for a remody for tho distressed con dition then existing, ho was elected a dele gate to tho Anti-Monopoly Convention held at Harrisburg to represent tho busi ne3j men of Girardvillp. Mr. Smith was appointed Justice of tbo Poaco in 1875 by Governor Ilartranft, and the following spring wai olected for a term of five years. Sheriff Michaol Scanlan who took his offlco in 1881, appointed Mr. Smith as deputy. Tho position of Deputy Sheriff has been held by Mr. ijmitb over since: and sinco the death of Mr. Scanlan ho has hold tho position under Sheriff' MoUabo, Boyor, Duffy and Comroy. Scanlan, McCabo and Comrey woro Re publicans; Boyor and Duffy Democrats; and no compliment from our pen can at test to the fact of Mr. Smith's fitness for Sheriff so well as tho fact that these Repub lican and Democratic Sheriff's havo con tinuously kept him lirtho Shoriff's office. Tho poople of Girardvilte knew Mr. Smith's sterling worth before ho loft us to ro -vo to tho county seat; and his recognized worth in Pottsville by judges, lawyors, and the officials on tho hill only proves his eminent fitness for tho position that ho was unanimously nominated for. Mr. Smith, when associated with us in connection with this paper, exhibited a pith and earnestness articles that attracted tendon. The articles in many of h s more than local at- woro occasionally repiiblihod by other ' county papors. Mr. Smith when ho lft our town parted with his interest in this paper. The co-workers of Mr, Smith in reform matters, political matters, and business matters, with one accord speak woll of his agreeahlo, firm, earnest, and conscientious courso In dealing v. itti his fellow man. This community can only do justlco to tsolf by giving Mr. Smith such a voto as will provo that we respect and honor our citizons who live such hunost and unassum ing lives as Ben Smith did whilo with us.

Took Over n Million Hut Mostly la Securities, AVhluh Wcro Hoturnoil. New Youk, Sep. 13. From letters re ceived by bunkers in this city, it seems that tbo loss to tbo Fidelity Trust Bank nt Tacoma, Wash., by tbo defalcation ofn Edward Albertson, tho secretary, was much grentor than had been generally supposed. It was horetoforo believed that Albort son lost some $9,000 only In speculation, nnd surprise was caused by tho extraor dinary efforts made to capture hlin. It now appears he took $30,000 In cash nnd nearly a million In tecurltles. Tin securities, however, ho roturnod througt an accomplice Albertson was suspected of complicity The thieves havo escaped Moro Mall Suggestions. It is suggostod that tho mail train known as No. 1, loaving Philadelphia at 4:10 a. m. and running only as far as Pottsville, havo its route oxtendod to Wllliamsport, which point it could reach at 12:01 p. m., making connections at Mabanoy Plane for Shonan- doah and tho mail would arrive hero at 9;B0 a. m., instead of lying at Pottsvillo from 8:10 a. m. until 12:30 p. m. This arrangement would bo advantagoous to a territory over ono hundred miles in length giving it the beuofit of a mail sorvico covering such towns as Tamaqun, Mahanoy City, Oilberton, Shonandoab, Girardvillo Ashland. Shamokin. Sunbury and Wlll iamsport, bosides a largo numbor of towns with smaller populations. For the return trip tho postal clerk could leavo on No. 10, known as tho "Cannon Ball," leaving Williamsport at 3:35 p. m., orrivingat Philadelphia at 10 p. m. Tho mail service between Philadelphia and tho coal and lumbor regions is miserable in many ro spects and radical changes cannot bo made too soon, The authorities should make a completo investigation and they will find tbo affairs just as stalod. It is suggostod that when Postmaster Colo, of Pottsvillo, is making his inspection of tbo county offices be givo this sorvico his attention. Pleas of Quilt Clerk of tho Courts John J.
