UNDER tbe law requiring candidates to tile itemized accounts of their elec tion expenses Albeit Klein. Socialist candidate for the Assembly in one of the New York districts, acknowledges having spent 55 cents during his canvass. He doesn't state who the other ten men were that were with him at the time. W. T. STEAD says the trouble with the Prince of "Wales is that he wanted i "thrills," and there was nothing in ; the dreary, aimless life of the heir to the throne to give them to him, so he had to find them as best he could, in i ways commendable or otherwise. I That is the trouble with many people | they want "thrills." LAST January there was in this . country the largest sum of money per capita that was ever known in the history of the nation, although many individuals are sure they did not get their share of it. The amount per capita was $24. The large gold ship ments have reduced it somewhat, yet even now, if it will be any consolation to you to know, there is for you and every member of your family, though you can'l see it, $23.57. ACCORDING to Charles A. Dana, the following was Horace Greeley's code in journalism: "Always give a hear ing to your opponent. Never attack t a man and refuse him an opportunity j to defend himself in the same column. I Ee always as considerate of the weak and oppressed as of the powerful. Waste no strength in advocating things impossible of accomplishment. Never compromise your opinion on account of subscribers or advertisers." THE editor of the Williamsport He publican was hanged in effigy Tues day night by a number of citizens. The figure was run up on the middle span of the river bridge, and late passers supposed it to be the body of a man who had committed suicide. Mr. Dwyer, the editor, when informed of the occurence was greatly amused. The publication which led to the deed was to the eilect that the County Commissioners could have saved $50,- 000 by building a new bridge, and insinuating that all was not straight in the transaction. Editors can stand harmless fun of that kind, so long as the citizens do not try to liang them, minus the effigy. AN underground city is reported by Russian newspapers as having been found in Russian Turkestan, near the Bokharan town of Karki. The entrances are by a series of large caves in the side of a rocky hill. Effigies and inscriptions have been found, and also designs upon gold and silver money, which lend to the belief that the town dr.tes back to some two centuries before the birth of Christ. There are a number of streets and squares surrounded by houses two and three stories high. Urns, vases, cooking pots, and other utensils have been found in great abundance. The symmetry of the streets and squares and the beauty of the baked clay and metal utensils attest the fact that the ' people had reached an advanced stage of civilization. ROHERT WATCHOHN, Stnte Factory Inspector, has returned from his trip j to Europe. Air. Watchorn says the condition of the American miners is I not to be compared with the collieries ; of Europe. Over there they are better paid and Hie employment is' more regular. He says tire lowest! rate qj' wages paid the European miner is $1(1 per week, to which is added a dividend of 4(1 per cent, of' the sales. After investigating the j facts Mr. Watchorn thinks the dig-; gers of Pennsylvania have nothing to | congratulate themselves upon when the respective conditions of home and foreigh labor is put side by side. The labor unions of England have ameliorated the workingman's condi- [ tion. The organizations are very! compact, and see to the welfare of! every toiler. THE reasons given in Senator Gobin's resolution declaring that the Senate has no jurisdiction in the I Boyer caso may prove aw kward here- j after. The Senate is made to declare , that the charges preferred by the; Governor again t the State Treasurer are charges of misdemeanor in office, "for which said officers could he pro ceeded against both by impeachment and by indictment," etc. Suppose the Governor should take the Repub- : lican Senators' view of it and call the House in extra session to prepare articles of impeachment. Without considerable juggling the Republicans of the House will find themselves in a predicament, being obliged either to disagree with their brethren of the Senate as to the character of the charges, or else to bodly refuse to indict on charges based on admitted facts—or else to indict. It was a wise rule of an old French king never to give any reasons for liis acts. He knew, what the Senate may learn, how awkwardly they turn up to con found the reasoner. Ilappy and content is a home with " The Ro chester; a lamp with the light of the morning. Catalogues, write Rochester Lamp Co., New York, j Strikes, ami Lockouts. 1 The annual report of the Secretary of ' Internal Affairs on the industrial statis-1 tics of the State will soon appear. Its ' ; publication has been delayed in order to ! I procure statistics of the last census re- ' luting to the leading manufactures of the j ; state. It was confidently believed that | these could be completed, but so much \ of the work in the census office lias been suspended from lack of funds that it was finally determined to publish the report without these statistics. As soon as they are completed, however, they will ap pear in a separate form. 1 The statistics of strikes and lock-outs from 1887 to 1890 are given. In the re port for 1888 all the strikes for the pre-, ceding six years were published, and j the record is here presented for four ; . years more. The most important ones I during this period were the strikes of the employes of the Philadelphia and Reading Railroad Company, the Read ing Iron and Coal Company and the Le- 1 high region miners, hi the four years, 1887 to 1890, inclusive, there were 51 J strikes and lock-outs. Of this number - 44 were for an increase of wages and 7 against a reduction of wages. Of the i :>| strikes and lock-outs inaugurated 13 ' ! were successful, 7 partly successful and * :>1 were total failures. From this report 1 i it can be seen that the odds are against the workingmen in strikes and lock-outs. \ i The report closes with a description of f ; the railroad relief associations of the { ! State. They have been established by i the Pennsylvania Railroad, Cumberland ; Valley, Lehigh Valley, Philadelphia and 1 ! Reading and the Baltimore & Ohio- in 1 ' short they include all the more impor- ' ; tant lines in the State. The report of the Factory Inspector also appears in t ' this volume, though it properly forms < no part of it, as the Factory Inspector is ] not under the supervision either of the | Secretary of Internal Affairs or the Chief of the Bureau of Statistics. < Clevvlnnd the Coining MUII. It seems to be admitted that the one man who looms up conspicuously for the i Democratic nomination is (1 rover Cleve- . land. The platform on which Flower won in New York represented f|tiite accurately Mr. Cleveland's views. Rev enue reform and sound coinage were the shibboleths. Mr. Cleveland's activity in the campaign is believed to have materially contributed to Flower's sue- i ccss, and it would seem as though Tam many Hall would have reason to give the ex-President as emphatic support next year as it gave him half-hearted aid lor open opposition in previous cam paigns. Governor Hill's chances were I largely based on the assumption that he was the only Democrat who could be confidently relied upon to carry New York. The great majority for Flower upsets that calculation. Then again, Hill is suspected of a leaning to cheap i silver notions, and the Ohio election has ■ settled all question of the Democratic platform's position with regard to the currency. Governor Campbell's principal stumb ling block in his campaign was the silver plank in his state. Therefore, as the Democratic party triumphed upon the principles held by Cleveland, and as the ' current of events has brought him closer t into line with the organization in his own I State, his friends have much reason to j | claim that the logic of the situation I points clearly to his nomination, and 1 that his occupying the White 1 ; House, also, have been strengthened by s - the late elections. It is certain that Pattison's boomlet will die out immedia ' tely and will belaid away with Camp hell's. Russell and Boies will be strong t Vice Presidential possibilities, and either 1 will make a good companion for Grover. t I What tlie Flections Show. I The elections of lust week leave n very I large margin for conjecture about the q j distribution of the electoral vote of 1892. n Neither party can confidently claim the " possession of anything near the 223 votes '■ necessary to elect a ['resident. Under i. the new apportionment the twenty States e that cast their electoral votes for Har rison have 24!) votes, lint this easy majority in the Electoral College is wiped j out wlien the following States are ranked ' as doubtful: F Indiana 15 votes > lowa 13 votes Massachusetts 15 votes j Michigan 14 votes New York 36 votes , Total 93 votes , These reduce the available strength of , the States that went Republican in 1888 i 'I to 156 votes. Add to these the 17 votes j 1 j of the new States of Idaho, North and | South Dakota, Washington and Wyorn ing, and the total is still 50 votes short of ) j a majority. Under the newly estabjish jed district system in Michigan its | electoral vote will he divided, but only | six votes are claimed by the Republicans, j ! Add to these the votes of Indiana, lowa | and Massachusetts and the election ! j would lie a tie. Lot the Democrats j j carry New York, Indiana and eight { | districts in Michigan and their victory j j would he complete. I.et the fact be 1 admitted that Illinois, New Hampshire, ! j Rhode Island and Wisconsin are no | longer securely Republican States and ihe problem becomes still more compli cated for the party that won in 1888. | ■ Xcw York Patriotism. In the "Tar and Tartar" there is an I ! elaborate medley of American patriotic j aire at the close of the third act. The I leader of the orchestra has arranged ■ them so that the people on the stage I | K ''ig the ".Star Spangled Banner," j , i "Dixie" and "Yankee Doodle" at one I time without any discord. There is a j I tremendous amount of marching and < ! countermarching, and the singers" raise 1 the roof with their songs. The arrange- ; < ment is so popular that four or five encores are demanded every night. New j York audiences are not supposed to he I particularly patriotic, and the applause was set down as a tribute to the skill of , the musician who had made the arrange- I ment of the songs, until the other night, when some foreigners who were sitting i near the stage grew weary of the music and began to hiss. Instantly there was an outburst of cheers and applause which startled the attendants of the house. : The song was redetnanded three times j more, and when the Spaniards got up j and left the theatre, the people glared at them in a fashion that surprised me. i | had no idea that a New York audience ; could be wrought up to such a pitch of patriotism.— Brooklyn Eagle. ,4 SHo Couldn't Marry Three," \ < >ne of tlu! greatest successes on the | road will play an engagement lu re short- ' ly. It is one of the most colossal the- j ' atrical enterprises ever sent from New '1 York. During the past summer over i I twenty men, scene painters, machinsts, I upholsterers, carpenters, etc., have been j constantly at work building the most stu -1 pendens scenery and effects. It can he best appreciated from the fact that not s one piece of tlie local scenery is used in the production. The stage is stripped ■ liare on the company's arrival in town, ! as every piece of scenery for the entire I' play is special, and from the accounts ! which precede the company, some of . the scenic effects are simply wonderful. | Subscribe for the TRIBUNE, | BRIEF ITEMS.
