Sale of Town Property.-The sale of the
old Jail and lots which it occupies took
place on Tuesday last under the direction
of the County Commissioners. The pro-
perty was first offered in five lots as adver-
tised. In this shape the sum of bids
amounted to $5,O90 The successful bid
ders were Charles McAteer, $40 per foot
for lot No. 1, adjoining his premises. The
next two lots, Nos. 2 and 8, were offered
together, containing 46 feet front, and
were knocked down to w. ]. Jones, Esq,
at $50 per foot. The next lot was that on
which the old Jail stands, and was knocked
Guiding the Jail building. The remaining
lot extending from the south side of the
Jail building to Albert Constable s residence
including right of way, was knocked
down to G. W. Cruikshank at SEQ foot.
The property was then set up as whole
and started at $5, 100. A spirited contest,
was carried on for some time between the
former successful bidders, with Mr.. Dren-
men omitted from the company, he having
withdrawn, and Messrs. Thos. Gilpin and
Carl Hoffman. The property was finally
knocked down to W. J. Jones,-he having
been the bidder-at 1925.
The Town Commissioners claim an equal
share in the property with the county,
which claim has been submitted to the
Court and will he decided at some future
day. The County Commissioners guaran-
tee clear title to the property.

We hope that the opponents of the Penn
Square site for the public buildings are satis-
fed now, for they have signslly failed in their
last desperate attempt to defeat the will of
the people of Philadelphia, the Supreme
Court this morning having dissolved the in
junction against the commissioners, so that
now there is nothing whatever TO prevent the
building from being erected in the manner
proposed. We never doubted that the Su-
preme Court would decide this matter
as it has done, and we refer our
readers to the decision delivered this
morning, which we publish on our first page.
The citizens of Philadelphia have reason to
congratulate themselves not only upon this
decision, but upon the fact that it has been
delivered. 1t ought to set at rest finally and
forever all question as to the site of the pub
lie buildings; and the property holders in the
neighborhood of Washington and Indepen-
denoe Squares should remain satisfied with
having submitted their case to the people and
to the Supreme Court, and with having been
defeated in both instances. Let us have
peace.

peace, while Austria has only 2I,265, so that
at the commencement OF a war nea.ly the whole OF
the German cavalry can he mounted at once, while
Austria would have to obtain Iaore than 10000
horses over and above her peace establishment.
The rapldity, too with which her troops can be
mobilized gives Germany great advantage over
neighborng nations. "Every State on her frontier,
therefore, which cannot equal her In the rapdity
and precision OF her military system, is not secure
against invasion;' and the writer accordingly urges
that it is indispensably necessary 'for Austrias
very existence" that she should accept without
delay the Prussian plan OF mobilization. He also
recommends that the whole OF the Austro- Hunga-
rian army should be at once provided with the
Werndl rife, of which only about 100000 have as
yet been issued; that omutz, Komorn Pesth, the
line OF the Ems, and the Carplthis passes should
be strengthened and that regular system OF forti-
1catioDs should be constructed for the defense OF
Bohemia.

PHILADELPHIA DEMOCRACY sends as its best
and worthiest delegates to the Democratic
State Convention such shining exemplars as
John Ahern, Robert Lister Smith, William
McMullin, and John Tobin. These selections
are eminently appropriate. They represent
with Photographic fidelity Democracy as it is
in this city, and confer due honor upon the
men who in sunshine and storm bear the
heat and burden of the fray, and who are
equally ready for fight or fraud when the
interests of the party demand extra exertion.
As they work the machine, why should they
not run it from the initial step of its opera
tions2 What is the use of putting up respect
able fgure-heads to bewider the public,
when it is we'll understood all round that all
true Democrats must bow to the McMullin
influence?

UNITED STATES sEyAT0Rs

The Legislatures of several States have re-
Gently elected, or are about to elect, United
States Senators; and from present indications
the list will include Senator Wilson, of Massa-
chusetts, Hon. William Window, of Mime
sofa, Senator Morrill,, of Maine, John A.
Logan, of Illinois, Frank Blair, of Missouri,
Eli Salisbury, of Delaware, and F. T. Fre-
liDghuysen, of New Jersey. 1t is noticeable
that the dominant party in each State
has taken great pains to select men
particularly well adapted by their talents,
training, and antecedents for the special pur-
poses required. We do not pretend that Eli
Salisbury, of Delaware, or Frank Blair are
likely to make good Senators, but we have
little doubt that they will be efficient repre-
sentatives of their peculiar constituencies.
As Delaware belongs politically to the Sauls-
bury family, it was impossible that anybody
but Salisbury could represent her, and
three brothers-Willard, the present United
States Senator, Cove, the present
Governor, and Eli, a lawyer not
heretofore gorged with office
were the only competitors for the nomina-
tion of the party once so Democrats that
it had a holy horror of aristocratic family
dominance. Willard's career in the Senate
fully demonstrates his unftness, and as
Gove's Governorship has furnished scarcely
less damaging evidence of his unworthiness,
the Democracy displayed superior wisdom in
honoring another member of this omni-
potent family. In Missouri the anti
Republican party is made up in
large measure of rampant Rebels
the war by torturing or shooting down their
Union neighbors, and they will find Frank
Blair, as long as he remains in his present
mood, ready to &c as far as the farthest to
galvanize a new rebellion, to punish loyalty,
to exalt treason, and to bring discredit and
disgrace upon the National Government which
is the object of continued Rebel hatred.
The Republican Senators just elected OF
about to be elected are all men of mark
Wilson, Window, Morrill,, Logan, and Ere
liRghuysen having each and all given ample
proof of their devotion to their respe,ti va
States and high capacity as Legislators.
A glance over the list will make every
Pennsylyanian solicitous for the honor OF
this Commonwealth, and regret more keenly
than ever that it is so miserably represented
in the United States Senate. Practically it is
not represented at all, for Oameron's CHIEF
object is to pander to the ambition
OF the Cameron family, and
Scott figures only as an attorney
for railway corporations. When we consider
that two of the best men in the State could
only secure partial justice for her interests in
the Senate, it seems the height Ofifolly to en-
trust her welfare 10 such feeble and indif

GERMANY AND AUsTRIA-A pamphlet, attributed
to the Archduke Albert, recently appeared at Vi
emma, under the title, "rhe Year 1910 and the De-
fensiye Power of the Austro- Hungarian Monarchy"

disposal for military service from ss to 81 per cent
OF her population, 1,2sS, 600 70 l,S470 900 men

The NEW YORK Press FORCE EMPLOYED.
The Herald has had for years the largest
number of editors, reporters and correspon-
dents of any daily in the city, and on the
whole makes the poorest use of them That
Office has very poor material generally, for the
reason that Intellectual and cultivated men will
not consent TO such total suppression OF indi-
viduality as has always marked the concern.
Consequently, it is compelled to employ many
persons to do in mediocre way what a less
number might do in a superior manner. The
entire staff of the Herald reaches, it is said.
over two hundred men, whose salaries average
$25 week. The entire expenses of the es-
tablishment are estimated at $4,000 a week,
on an average-sometimes running much high
er, and sometimes materially lower. The ex-
penses of the Tribune are ranked next. Its
editors reporters, and correspondents number
about one hundred and fifty, and their rate of
compensation is much higher than on the
Herald The Tri6uneS expenses are about
$4,000 week During the Franco-German
war they we're often as much as $4,000, and
they were also very large while the rebellion
lasted but $4,000 is a fair average, taking
month after month The World has large
corps of writer's, and has the reputation of get
ting better service out of them for less money
than any paper in the city. It's journalistic
attaches are almost as numerous as those of
the Tribune though its expenses are not more
than $4,000 or $1,000 a week. The Times
is conducted with small force, most of which
is resident. The salaries paid are liberal at
home, but rather slender for domestict and
foreign correspondents of whom it has few
compared with the other quartos. Us en-
ployees and expenses of the other minssds~ pa
pers are few and small, taking the grefk sies
as criterion. 81
