The action of the House on the Salary

The action of the House on the Salary
bill does not satisfy any one outside of
Washington. Its justly regarded as
an evasion of the duty incumbent on
Congress to restore salaries as they were
and the country will not rest satisfied
with anything short Of that. The MEM
bers of the House may as well under
stand, first as last, that the trick o.
substituting bill which gives them
&c, 600 year for one that gave them
5000, is understood by the people. Nc
one is deceived by it, and the members
who have tried the hoodwinking game
had better give it up, when the Senate
gives them chance.

THE Secretary of the Treasury has
recommended an increase of taxation
as absolutely essential, if the country
desires to avoid running into an in
crease of debt. The alternatives are
either to spend less or raise more mon
ey; and there are but two ways to
raise money-by borrowing and by
taxation. Congress has already au-
thorized an additional appropriation OF
four millions to the navy, growing out
of the Cuba bluster; and as this would
seem to shut out all hope of a decrease
in expenditures, we are thrown back
upon the necessity of either increasing
our debt or levying new taxes.
The Secretary's plan is to lay a tar
iff on tea and coffee, and increase the
taxes on tobacco and distilled spirits.

UAIONIO nv LCCILS.

! IT'S OUR PLEASURE to give our 10
cal readers brief description OF tht
| happy event which tranSpired at lhc
residence of Mr.. Henderson Hays. Oh
the evening of the 18th inst. We speak
of the marriage of his handsome anG
accomplished dauShter, Theresa, tt
Robert Dool, Esq, gentleman of hig!
social standing and unblemished record
There were assembled on this OCCASION
perhaps eighty guests, and among the
number we noticed Miss Maggie Coul-
ter and sister, OF Pittsburgh, Pa, and
Miss Hanna and brother, Of Ashland
Ohio. At the hour appointed for the
ceremony, Miss Maggie Coulter WAS
seated at the organ and began playing
a beautiful and appropriate march, tG
the music of which the parties passed
i'll and took their position upon the
floor: Miss Cynthia Hays as brides
maid ,and Mr.. r.. McFadden as gro0ns-
man. They We're married by Rev.
Milford, and Immediately passed out
to supper. The table was resplenGeut
with crystal and silver, and brilliant
lights, and was laden with an abun-
dance of the most tempting delicacies,
to which the guests did ample justice.
During the evening old bachelors pres
ent were constantly inquiring, Who
did arrange that table? Who did get
up such nice suppeI?-but the ladies
had conspired together to keep the
matter profound secret. After sup
per the newly married couple received
the congratulations of their many
friends, and the guests were permitted
to enjoy the evening in a manner most
pleasing to themselves. The time pass
ed swiftly and pleasantly away, and
the guests tarried until Il late hour
The wedding arrangements were char
acterized by the utmost neatn1ss and
good taste, and the wealth and high
social standing Of Mr.. Hays and iami-
ly justified them in giving such splen-
did entertainment.
In connection with the wedding we
desire TO speak of the reception of Ait
and rirS. Dool at the residence of Da-
Vid Hays on the evening of the 10Th.
Mr.. Hays and Miss Ida had made ev.
cry arrangement for the comfort and
enjoyment OF their friends; a splendid
supper was served, and as evidence
that the occasion was enjoyed the par
ties tarried in The pleasant parlor until
a later hour than they had proposed on
The bride and groom will
visit this evening at the house of Mr..
John Caldwell, and we know that MIR.
Caldwell and his estimable wife will
make the entertainment pleasant one
for all who are favored with an invita-
ton.

ONE noticeable fact in connection wit b
the salary-grab debate is that nearly all
the members who have had the effront-
cry to defend the grab are Democrats.
Guilty as some of the Republican mem
bers are in connection with the salary
increase, very few attempt now to de-
fend their canduct, or to oppose the
evident desire of the people on the sub
ject. This is not the case with large
number of Democratic members. They
have over and over again declared that
they shall oppose repeal at every
stage, and il, finally, both Houses fail
to reduce the salary, # will be ow
ing greatly to the fact that so many
opposition members vehemently favor
the retention of the present pay.
Belmont chronicle. [volume] (St. Clairsville, Ohio) 1855-1973, 1873-12-25
Fare Reduced.

The Baltimore d Ohio Railroad COM
pany have practically recognized the
pressing financial situation. They are
the first in the field with reduction
of fares in accord with the demands of
the stringent times. On and after to-
day the fare from Columbus to Balti-
more or Washington will be ten dollars
only. From Chicago to Baltimore, the
fare will be fifteen dollars, and from
Cincinnati to Baltimore ten dollars.
The material reduction will be accept
ed as the result of a just appreciation of
the financial situation, and the sound
financial policy of the company enables
them to make the change promptly and
to an extent that will be felt by the
travelling public. The reduction is all
the more important because it has been
made at a time when extensive i'm
provements have been made in the roll
ing stock. While it takes less money
to travel over the lines ofthe company,
new appliances for the comfort, con-
venience and safety of passengers have
been introduced. NeWplace, chair and
compartment cars and first-clasS coaches
are run on the road. The road is in first
class condition, land passes through some
vi lu6 lilOSO plCIuI SSluS SCcIltly Oll lilt
continent. All these advantages, united
with the reduction of fare, will count
heavily with the travelling public, and
a heavy patronage would seem to be
the inevitable outcome of sound
stroke of business.
This move is on Il firm basis. TheI
management Ofthe company's finances
in..the past has made a sure foundation
for any proposition in favor Of the pub
lie the Baltimore and Ohio company
may make. The remarkable contrast
between the report of the President OF
the Baltimore and Ohio road and the
policy of watering stock which is car
ried on in other corporations, has at
tracted the attention Of the leading
of the country. The re-
port has been commented on eXten-
sively as shining example in the
midst of railroad degeneracy.-O. s.
