The operations Of that great corporation have been bo Inti mately identified with the prosperity of Pennsylvania that the marked evi dences of its wonderful management presented in the report furnish read ing that should be interesting to every citizen. Those who have traveled this coun try of ours from end to end can testify to the fact that even in its remotest parts people accord to the Pennsyl vanla the proud distinction of being the best managed trunk lino road in the United States. No one has ever heard its superiority questioned by anybody whose opinion was entitled to value or not warped by sectional prejudice. We have only to look at the stupen dous figures representing receipts, tonnage and passengers to cause not only admiration! but marveling how so vast a concern, so ramified in Its operations and involving such an Im mense amount of executive ability in. ltd varied departments, can be operated as successfully as this one has always been. Think of a road earning f 135,- 000,000, carrying 130,.00,000 touB of freight and 80,934,611 passengers. Such figures literally bewilder, and nat urally should make every citizen feel proud, whether Interested as stock holders or merely as sharers of the ,, prosperity this great aggregation of money and superior management has conferred upon the state and country. Another feature connected with the Pennsylvania's management Is the fact that there has ever been nn at mosphere of honesty surrounding all its doings. There have been no de falcations, no embezzlements, and though the motives of those in the 2 CENTS PER YARD FOR S"4tfT: F100' Oil Cloth; others for W B 30, 35 and 40 cts. and upwards.

AT KEITER'S. direction havo been impugned by rivals, In the end it has been shown that, while tho company was not blind to Its own interests, it wae equally solicitous for tho general weal. Tun people are anxiously awaiting the reorganization of Council. Since the late election all attention of the average Councilman seems to be absorbed by "slate" mnklng. "Fence" building before election and "slate" making after It deprives the borough of considerable service. But It will go on this way until the people see tho advantages of a city charter. A correspondent writes to the Herald over the signature "Labor," asking when the Reading company will stop stealing from the men their honest wages. The best answer to the question can bo found in the editorial published in the Herald of last Tuesday evening. Now that theUnited States Supremo Court has rendered decisions uphold ing the MoKinley bill and ex-Speaker Reed's decision as to what constitutes a quorum the Democrats will probably reach the conclusion that alj Republl cau brains are not absorbed by partW san politics. When Jay Gould recovers will he follow Rockufoller's example and give a million to charity, or will he pose in justification of the old couplet? "When the devil was sick the devil a monk would be i When tho devil got well the devil a monk was ho." The. Councilmen who figured so conspicuously as life preservers of the people in tlie recent election would do the people a favor by explaining what part their present "slate" makiug plays "in the interest of all con cerned."

Tbo County Commissioners havo pro parod a table showing the number of voters in each election district in tho county, which is compiled from the reg istry books on fllo in tho Commissioners' office. The table has boon propared for the pur pose of ascertaining how many booths for preparing ballots it will be necessary to put up at'each polling place next fall, when tbo people voto under tho ballot reform law in this state for tbo first time.

The fl-st booth will cou $4.75 and those annexed will cost ?3 75 each. No man wilt be allowed to fix bis ballot at homo or any other place outside of a booth at his own polls. In fact he will not havo a ballot until ho gets to tho polls Ho must thon enter a booth and in its solitude will arrango his ticket to suit himself.
