CRETE AND TIIE TURKS.
The renders of the news from
Crete will wonder nt the situation.
Hero is a little island jmopled partly
with Turks who are barbarians, nnd
partly with descendants of Greece
who are Christians. The latter rise
in rebellion against tho former be
cause of outrages committed which
would shame even our western sav
ages and forsooth the six great pow
ers of Europe, Christians ; send their
gunboats to bombard its ports and
starve the inhabitants into submis
sion to the Turkish rule. England,
brave ; magnanimous ; boasting oi
her liberties ; whoso air a slave
cannot breathe. France, a Repub
lic, and Italy associated with Greece
by kindredship in race and language,
are there with Russia, a semi-bar
bario nation, Austria and Germany
representing old despotisms, to
smother and quench the liborty
which was putting forth a feeble
flame amidst the mountains of
Crete.

thing and everything, but the fear
has been expressed that in using
the instruments on an ironclad the
waves might explode the magazine
of the ship itself. We are almost at
times willing to wish that the " lit

trio wave of this kind in her sling,
and hurl it against tho Goliuths as
sembled in her front and send every
one of them to the bottom of the
Mediterranean, and if lord Salis

spirits in this matter could bo on
the ironclads when the wa ve was re
leased it might make greatly for the
cause of lilierty and Christianity in
the world.
OPPRESSED CUBA.
An English correspondent to the
London Times has written a letter
to the World in which he gives a re
markable picture of the Cuban sit
uation. He says G.:nerul Weyler's
policy of extermination is nothing
short of the almost insane working
of an iguorunt and completely un
balanced mind. To kill people bo
cause they ha ve not obeyod au order
to leave their homos and reside in
some town where they have ii)
means of support, to devastate the
whole island ou the ple:i that by so
doing all supplies will bo bhut off
from the rebels demonstrates a duna;
ignorance on the part of the Span
ish General.
He further says that now Spain is
full of smirks and smiles simply tj
test the MeKiuloy administration.
That bliemad.3 Cleveland and O'ney
d nice to the twin she piped. Thnt
American citizens were not accorded
the privileges they wore entitled to
under the treaty, nnd that the elTorfs
of Consul Leo woro thwarted by in
structions received from Mr. Olnoy
at. Washington. That her object in
making concessions now in connec
tion with American citiwns is sim
ply for the purpose of feeling the
pulse of the new administration.
Ho ends his letter by saying. If I
may le permitted to give one word
of advice to the people of this grout
c nintry, it is to leave Armenia and
the Turks to bo dealt with by the
European powers, nnd attend to
their own Armenia that, lies but a
stone's throw from their own shores.

The editor of the Newport (R. I.

newspaper that sets out tobo imie

The newspaper that aspires to be

Journal, in the truest sense of the
term, should, we think, belong to
no political party, but should watch
and criticise them all foarlossly, yet
discreetly, and justly. It should
praise all things which are politi

uplifting; it should with all its
might disparage and censure those
things whoso trend, in its intelli
gent opinion, is counter to tho high-

Own political stand should bo what

should bo the great and vigilant ocn

wealth are able to wield much in

those in high or minor office but it
should never descend to mere gossip

xue independent newspaper
should freely admit into its own
columns all well-written, imper-
souul, wise, just and high toned

(Special Correspondence. )
HaiTlRlmrjr. April 6. Beyond the pas-
saire of a number of hills on first nd
second leading R"d few finally, but
little was accomplished by the house of
representatives during the few days
they were In session last week. A
number of bills that are nn the calen-
dar are being worked for very Indus
triously by their enterprising projec
tors, with a hope of eventually securing
their final passage. Among those that
are being pushed by their franiers are
what Is known as the French salary
bill. I!y the provisions of this measure
the salaries of county otllclals are to be
based on what Is believed to he a more
equitable basis. It provides thai the
state be divided Into counties of first,
second and third classes, etc.. and that
In a county having a population of over
lr.OOTO the district attorney shall re
ceive $4,000 salary, sheriff 16.600. pro
thonotarles M.OOO, clerk of courts $.1,600,
treasurer tt.OOO. commissioners $1.50(1
each, and auditors $500 each; this to
constitute a county of the third class.
In a county containing over 100,000 and
less than 150.UOO. the salaries of the
county officials are to be as follows:
District attorney, $4,000; sheriff, $6,000;
prothonotaries. Ifi.boO: clerk of courts,
$3.1)00: register. $3,600; recorder, $3,500;
treasurer, $3,600; commissioners. $1,200
each, and audltora $3"0. The counties
of the sixth class are those having less
than 60.000 population, and the salaries
in these are to be: For district attor
ney, $L',000; sheriff. $3,600; prothonotary,
$1,600; clerk of court, $1,200; treasurer,
$1,600; commissioners, $600 each; sur
veyor, $100; auditors. $150 each, and
coroner, $250. The bill also provides
that all fees collected by county of
ficials, In addition to their Balarles, are
to he turned over to either the county
or state.
The Hamilton Hoad Kill.
The Hamilton road bill Is now receiv
ing special consideration and Is growing
In popularity The objections that have
been made to It In some of the country
districts have now been met when a
comparison Is made between the ex
penses Incurred In the operation of the
present law. lly a careful Investiga
tion It Is found that the Hamilton, or
senate bill No. 9, will effect a saving
to the taxpayers of $320,831. because
the present system of supervision costs
for the salaries of 8.230 supervisors an
average of $150 each annually, which
makes a total of $484,500. The Ham
ilton road bill would allow to each
supervisor only $64 for the supervision
of each township. In Pennsylvania
there are 1,5.18 townships, making the
total cost of supervision under the
Hamilton bill $83,052, while the salary
of the treasurer of the board under
this same law cannot exceed 5 per
cent of the money tax collected, and
may be fixed at a little lower sum,
The entire road tax In Pennsylvania In
1895 amounted to $3,622,708. lly the
Hamilton bill one-half of this sum
would be payable In caBh. If the maxl
mum sum of 6 per cent were allowed
it, -.Qiua..nm)iA.tUel.plftrjss I'lifivUftP
added to the supervisors' salaries
would amount to $168,618 as the total
cost of supervision for the state under
the Hamilton law. Thus It Is plain to
be seen that, Instead of Increasing the
tax on tne farmers, a saving would
be effected of $326,881. The present sys
lem oi taxation for road purposes cost
13 4-10 per cent for road supervision
wnue by the Hamilton law It would
cost only 4 3-10 per cent, thereby saving
i-ru per cent to tne taxpayers.
The owners of bicycles are very much
exercised over the introduction of a bill
to impose a tax on each bicycle In the
commonwealth, the proceeds of which
arc to be used for the Improvement o
the public roads. They are bringing
very considerable pressure to bear
against the passage of this bill, and
they have very Just ground for com
plaint. They claim that, by the present
wasterui and extravagant system of
roadmaklng, no amount of money ex
peuuea wouici De or much benefit to
the public roads of the state. They
say they are not opposed to the pay
ment of a tax on bicycles If the state
had any systematic system of Improv
ing the highways that was In any way
In keeping with Judicious and substan
tial Improvement, but unless there Is
a netter system adopted they will
contend bitterly against Imposing any
tax on ineir wheels.
KU-ctrlo Light Legislation.
Blnce the Introduction of the electric
light there has been a disposition
amone the members to legislate In
respect to fixing the price of this II-
lununant. Several bills have been In
irooucea recently which. If they be
come lawa, would drive this system
of lighting out of the market. Such
legislation as this has a tendency to
cnecK tne Introduction of Improve
ments, which is greatly to be deplored,
ine committee of public grounds mil
buildings of the house, In their report
10 opeaner Hoyer In reference to the
special message of Governor Hastings
concerning the necessity fur legislative
action providing for the erection of
capttoi building, claim they find that
me commonwealth of Pennsylvania is
practically free from debt. They as
Bert that existing provisions for the
sinking fund will redeem all of Its out
standing obligations as they mature.
In view of this they recommend that
the state Is Justifiable In the expendi
ture of not less than $1,000,000. but not
to exceed this amountr for the erection
of a new capitol building. It looks now
as if this will be the amount that will
ue eventually agreed upon. In their
report this committee recommend that
In
order to provide for the proposed
expenditure by taxation a slltht In
crease on the existing rate of corpora
tion tax, tne enactment by law of a
succession tax on inheritance of every
kind above a moderate figure, and a
tax on beer, an article of luxury and of
very general use, would provide ample
revenue for the raising of the amount
required to build a new capitol within
the next two years. They also recom
mend that action be taken speedily to
secure the erection, corni leiiun, decora
tion and furnishing of a fireproof cap-
toi buildlnt;, to be ready for occupancy
y tne time the next legislature cou-
enes.
liilorettt 111 the Coming Klectton.
There is very considerable interest
taken at the present time among the
Kepubltcnn iricrribeiu in reference to
he undid tea for state treasurer atrd
udltor general, and while James S.
".iiticun, of Westmoreland county, has
number of friends who are anxious
have him secure til nomination.
yet R. H. Phlndel, of Turk. Is growing
rapidly In popularity, and It la thought
will muster a good force of delegates l

The Wanatnaker people are anxiously
awaiting on his decision as In whether
he will be a candidate for state trens
urer, and If he consents to enter the
race they will combine then enrolls t"
secure his nomination.
Of the candidates for undltoi (tenernl,

record, his wide acquaintance over in

Joys, as well as his special Illness for
the position, all combine to give him
areat niestinte In the canvass How
i ever, the friends of Mr. llnrdenberg
are actively working In his Interests
I From present Indications this prom
1 Ises to he a most Interesting week In
legislative circles. One of the first silh
I iects to receive attention al the next
meeting of the senate will be the dis
position of the rase of llr. Swallow,
who has refused to give Information
to the committee of Investigation con
cerning the capllol Are.
From the efforts of nr. Swallow, as
sisted by a number of mechanics and
others In the Inspection of the ruins
f the old capllol building, he m-aria
to be prepared for the conies! thai
awaits him.
There were nn bills reached the gov
ernor during the week, hut a number
will he sent to him during this week
There Is now some doubt whether
there will be a holiday taken to at
tend the dedication of the (Irani nion
ument on the 27th of the month, as
i large number of the members think
hat they hnve no lime for any more
holidays If they expect -to adjourn in
any reasonable time.
Many mill Idiito mr lloverimr.
Almost every week aome new as
pirant for the governorship of Penn
sylvania Is announced. The number
now In the field would average at least
one to each county In the comtitou
one to each county.
The remarkable feature Is that each
and all are In dead earnest, and are
not working In the Interests of others.
This Is regarded as a very healthy
condition In state politics, and It Is
thought will result In the selection of
a candidate that has no special po
litical aflllatlons.
These bills passed Anally In the house
during the week: To punish the loan,
gift, sale or distribution of Immoral
writings, etc., and of all drugs for
criminal purposes: punishing the send
ing of anonymous communications of
l libelous, defamatory, scurrilous or op
probrious nature; granting the permis
sion and regulating the establishment
and operation of bone boiling estab
lishments and depositories of dead ani
mals; amending the act of April 9, 1870,
to require telephone companies to tile
annual reports with the secretary of
Internal affairs; to provide for the lay
ing out of private roads under the sur
face of Intervening land or lands to
coal. Iron ore, fireclay or other min
erals underlying adjacent land or lands,
necessary for the turning of wagons
and teams; repealing the act relative
to road laws In Pelers township, Wash
ington county; appropriating $200,000 to
provide for the deficiency In the fund
for the care and treatment of Indigent
Insane; providing bounties for the de
struction of wildcats, foxes, minks.
hawks, owls and weasels; providing
for the making of a sworn copy of book
accounts kept by any common carrier,
railroad company, chartered, storage or
transportation company, or other pub
lic corporation doing business In this
state, prima facie evidence In any suit
The following bills were defeated:
To create a state bureau of geology
and mines: providing for the accept
ance of the provisions of the act of
April 4. 187$. relative to the Incorpora
tion and regulation of Insurance com
panies and its supplements, by cor
porations organized under the laws of
this state, and authorizing reinsurance
by such compnnles; giving author
ity to Justices of the peace to hear and
determine certain criminal offenses and
misdemeanors by the aid of a Jury.
IIIIIm Which May be Hooonf ilored.
The bill to fix the medium school
term at seven months, and the Smith
uuei bin, which met with defeat a few
weeks ago. will doubtless be reconsid
ered this week. One of the most Im
portant measures Introduced In the
nous during the past week was a bill
of less than a dozen lines in length,
and yet one of very considerable im
portance to the city of Philadelphia. It
provides for the abolition of the pres
ent public buildings commission of
rnrianeipnia. A bill was passed at a
former session to wipe out this com.
mission, but the supreme court de
clared the bill unconstitutional, on the
ground that It embraced two subjects.
i ne nui recently Introduced Is very
simple, and Its phraseology has no In
volved technical terms. It Is claimed
that the Philadelphia public butldlnira
commission has become so notorious
that the citizens of the Quaker cltv
want It abolished, as It has squandered
the people's money In a most reckless
way. The letting of the last contract
to a bidder who was over $100,000 above
the next responsible bidder was an act
that has developed great Indignation
among the people, and hence a concert
ed movement has developed to have
fhe commission destroyed.
A number of bills of special Import
ance will be brought up for considera
tion that will no doubt provoke verv
considerable discussion. Senator Quay
It Is reported, will spend a day or two
here during the week, and will no
doubt confer with his friends during
his visit concerning the measures he
would like to see enacted Into laws
It Is also thought that his coming will
settle the question as to who will be
the most popular and suitable candi
dates for the offices of state treasurer
and auditor general. In view of his
coming a number of prominent per
sons from different parts of the state
are expected to confer with him In
regard to political affairs generally
Considerable pressure will no doubt be
orougni to bear upon him by many
applicants for federal positions to se
cure his Indorsement.
