Our Speclftl Corrtjgjoamlent At HarrUbura; Wrlt on .Matter or Vital Impor tance to Kvery Citizen of the Key fltone State. IlAiimsHf ro, Jan. 17, 1898. Just Bt this tiino when so much interest is being manifested in ro gards to the prosecutions brought by the pure fooil representatives, the annual report of Dairy nntl Food Commissioner Wells is of special importance. In substance be snys : "Another yenr's experience bus clenrly proven the value of the lnws relating to pure food, vinegar, lard nnd other food products, and it is difficult to even estimate the sav ing -which their enforcement has given to the people of our State, and it is also evident that their enforce ment in tho future will gradually become more easy as our people and especially as our retail dealers in food products become educated to the improved methods inculcated by a strict compliance with tho law. He adds: "Prohibitory laws in relation to what one may legally procure to eat or drink never have been popular with the masses, and in my opinion, never will be. They are the hardest of all laws to fully enforce, and especially so in sections where public sentiment is strongly against them. The output of oleo margarine has been reduced one half a million of pounds during the last year as shown by reports from the Internal Revenue Department, licenses, rc., and two millions as compared with 1894. "While busi ness depression has so generally prevailed, dairy interests have suffered, though as we believe, in a lesser degree than most lines of agricultural pursuits." AN IMPORTANT ACT. Secretary Edge, of the Agricul tural Department, has submitted his report on Forestry. After giving in full the progress made in the interact of Forestry for the past two years, and remembering the recent destruction by fire of a good deal of our timber land, Mr. Edge quotes the following Boction of an Act of 1897 for the benefit of the public in general : " That if any person or persons shall be detected by any constable or other peace officer, in the act of trespassing up on any forest ortimlwr laud within this Commonwealth, under such circumstances as" to warrant the reasonible suspicion that such per son or persons have committed, are committing, or are about to commit some offence or offences against any of the laws now enacted or hereafter to be enacted for the protection of forests and timber land, sueh con. stable or other pace offoor shall have authority at once, without at first proourin r a warrant therefor, to arrest on view such person or persons wit'.i like effect as though such warrant had first been pro cured.

The fee bill of 1893 allows $1 for serving a warrant, 60 cents for serving a subpoena, 10 cents per mile circular while on official busi nossand$l for serving a commit ment. A number of the courts of this Commonwealth have greatly re duced the constables' costs in a num ber of cases, claiming the law ot 1893 is not operative, so an nppoal will bo takou to determine the mat ter.

There should be good attendance at these institutes, no class at pres ent needs and deserves more en couragement than tho farmers' nnd no business likewise demands more exacting attontidii and intelligent direction than farming to make it profitable. That farmer who laughs in these days at book farming, and who disregards the results of costly and careful experiments will soon find to his cost and regret that he is making a serious and irreparable mistake.

Ho said tho trustees in their re cent action did absolutely nothing more than say that the law which has always boen on the statute books is there still, reforring to the one relating to the sale of liqnor to students. "That law is going to bo enforced not because of the clamor or agitation or outsido pressure. The trustees stand loco parentis, and while certain things exist we will do the best we can. We intend to pro tect the undergraduates from any possible temptation. We are tho best judgos and the responsibility rests on tho faculty and trustees.

Itlmetnllltin MeKennn' I'otiflriinition Nntlonnl Military l'nrk Id hrliiR Sen! - Award Silver Sentiment Declining Notes. Washington, Jan. 17, 1898. Secretary Wilson's report on Sen ator Lodge's resolution, which was adopted by the Senate, asking for full information as to beet sugnr and what, if any,foreigu sugars it comes in competition with, and what effect if any, the importatirn of Hawaiian sugars has or could have upon the beet sugar production of the United States, is expected to knock out one of the arguments whioh have been used by the sugar trust lobby to make certain senators, whose states are large nnd increasing producers of sugar beets, doubtful of the po licy of annexation, by showing that no injury to tho beet sugar interests of this country will, or possibly can follow the annexation of Hawaii. It is not surprising that senators should, have been Temporarily caught by the specious arguments of the agents of the sugar trust ngainst an nexation, bocauso of tho injury it might do the sugar beet industry in this country. Secretary Wilson was himself once doubtful on the .sub ject becanse he believed annexation might injure the Amjrican beet growers, but investigation convinced him that it would not, nnd his facts on the subject will convince the setta tors who have doubts. There are hourly contradictory stories around Washington ns to tho utti tudo of senators towards the annexa tion treaty but Senator Davis, who is in chargo of the' treaty, is still confident that it will be ratified with votes to spare. Senator Wolcott's speech bears out Senator Chnndlers's recent state ment that President McKinley does not regard as final the efforts made by the Commission Which visited Europe in belmlf of international bi metallism, and that he does not re gard their failure to get England committed as ending nil hope fornn lniernnnonai agreement. Senator Wolcott believes that tho visit of the commission to Enrono material! v advanced the idea of international bimetallism, and that it wiil yet be come an accomplished fact. Attorney Goneral MeKenna's nomination to tho Supro-no Cwrt would have been confirmed last woek had not Senator Allen seen in it an npportunity to secure a little notoriety for himself. When Sena tor Hoar presented the report of the Judiciary Committee in favor of Judge McKenna and asked that a vote be taken, Senator Allen was the only objector and he consumed four hours in making it plain that his only object was to draw publio at tention to himself. He first asked for a postponement of two weeks, but was in tho end satisfied to get the vote postponed until next Fri day. Thore is nothing ncertain about Judge McKonna's confirma tion. At the outsido, there isn't likoly to be more than six votes co-st in opposition, and it is possible that there will be none. Representative Jenkins, of Wis oonsin, luas introduced a bill provid ing for the establishment of a Nur tional Military Park, at Appomat tox, v a., aim tor tuo erection of a Peace monument upon the spot whore the agreement to cease hosti lities was executed. Thore are sev eral bills of this nature, including that providing for making a Nation al Mil'tary Park of the Vicksburg uattletiold, ana the general senti ment in Congress is favorable to them, but they are all likely to be shut out at this session under the general rule that no bill carrying an appropriation lor a new project shall De passed by the House, until the receipts or the government ex coed its expenditures. jNotwitustaniiing tue use of a whole week in the discussion of civil service matters, the House has made a good business record since the reassembling of Congress. It has passed tho Legislative, Execu five aud Judicial Appropriation Bui, the Urgency Deficiency Appro priation bill, and is now considering tue Diplomatio ana Uousulur Ap prapriution bill. Whatever may be the personal opinion of President McKiuloy us to the justness of the damages awarded to British subjects for osses alleged to have been sustained by reason of our seizure of thoir sealing vessels in Buhring sea, by the Arbitration Commission acting under the treaty of LVJtf, he knows that we are in honor bound to pay them, so he hits sent a smicial message to Congress, urging the early appropriation of f47d,lal.2o, in order that they muy be paid aud the matter closed. The reports brought to Washing ton by trustworthy men do not square with the claims of the silver Democrats as to the increase of sil vor fentimeut. On the contrary, they show a heavy decrease iu sil ver sentiment. For instance, Ex. Senator Moody, of fci. D., says of his state: " 1 hough Bryau carried the state iu ls'Jtt, by a slender majority, he will never be able to do so agum A good wheat crop and great gold productions have knocked Bryanism out in 8. D., which is now third In output of the yellow metal, nnd Its resources In this lino are only In the early stages of development. With the advent of prosienty, tho agita tion over fno silver has subsidod. " Inasmuch ns Consul Goneral Loe- can have one or more United States warship in Havana harbor within six hours after he deems their pres ence necessary, the administration has not been worrying over the yel low journal war scares of the last few days. Aspiring Democrats. The Carbon Advocate of Lehigh. ton sizes up the present Democratio situation in this district in the fol lowing off-hand manner, nnd in a rather summary way disposes of Pike. It says : The question of a Democratic con gressional candidate for the Eighth District is already attracting more or less attention among the politi cians. Last year L. H. Barber, of Carbon county, was the party nomi nee but he failed of election through one cause or another. For some it was generally conceded that ho should again be the choice of his party in this county, but things are different now, and it looks very much as if there would be a spirited contest for the conferees. True. there have been no publio announce ments, but that is not saying that there will not be, for those who have congressional aspirations are only waiting a favorable opportunity to hy their coster into the ring. Mon roe county will also ask for the nomination. Over there Dr. Shull is anxious t? try conclusions with Kir , pat.nck or any other Republi can, while in Northampton county senator ijaubach may uevelop into a formidable candidate. Pike county win nave no candidate, but with their two conforroes they may bo a strong factor in making a nomina tion. It is said that Monroe county may sacrifice the sonatorship to which it is entitled in order to se cure the congressional persimmon. The present condition presents a very pretty muddle in the Demo cratic party, but it is hoped that the contest will not develop sufficient bitterness to entail the defeat of the ticket when nominated.
