there were large number in Congress
of both parties who understood the
public temper, and in obedience thereto,

They spoke officially against it, used ev-

against it, and embarrassed its passage
in every way, even to facing that terri
BILE consequence, a special session of
Congress, which must have ensued had
not the appropriation bill passed. But
it was of no use. The bill passed with
all their opposition, and they found their
credit at the Treasury augmented to the
tune of a very inconvenient five thous-
and dollars. Many of these did not
want the smell of fire upon their gar
mcnts, and made haste to put it away
from them. Some studied to place it
where it would do the most good, and
found charitable, philanthropic and pat
riotic institutions sufficiently absorbing,
and no questions asked. Others have
studied to make purely equitable dis
position of it, and have differed upon
which is the most equitable-to leave it
in the Treasury, or to apply it to the ben
eft of their constituents. Everybody
can see that each State must
pay into the Treasury its pro-
/ 70 no nf hn Iyhnln amount
of increase and the intent of the
bill is that each State shall receive back
through her representatives her share of
the increase Now such as, refusing to
keep themselves, apply it to the State
finances have hit upon the shortest and
surest way of returning penny for penny,
and so far as they are concerned undOing
the effects of the bill. Equally equit-
able would be the plan of members APP
plying it to their districts if all were to
do so, but while A refunds and B does
not the burden upon the taxpayers be
comes unequal. Altogether, the situation
is peculiar and grows more so. The
law makes every member and Senator
the pOssessor of that five thousand. If
he applies it to the benefit of his constit-
uents he must give il as his own, and
II
must even in that way dispose of it as
his own, as much as when he tips his
nickel into the contribution box. Those
who increase has been turned over to
the Treasury of the United States have
sought high-minded and the easiest
possible way of disPossessing themselves
of what they didn't want to keep. But
few days since one OF the most emf
nent men in America man whose
very name is a safeguard against corrup-
ton or completely; who had no part in
passing the salary bill, and whose increase
has been covered into the Government
Treasury again, upon mature consider
alton, expressed the conviction that the
most equitable disposition would have
been to have padi it in his State Treas
ury. His people would then have been
recompensed in proportion as their taxes
viii be increased to make up the increase
of salary to them. "K."

Late Markets.
CHEESE.


The market at Utica, Tuesday. was
unusually good for the time of the year
The attendance was large and the offer
| ing better-than year ago. The facto-
ries represented numbered twenty three,
and the offerings footed up over seven
teen hundred boxes All the factories
sold except three, the sales reaching one
thousand five hundred and fifty boxes.
Prices ranged from 15@15ac, the ruling
figure being 1910.
The offerings. sales and prices at Lit
tie Falls on Tuesday, were a little off
from those Of last week One thousand
boxes of private dairy were offered and
eight hundred boxes sold and shipped.
Prices ranged from 8@133 only one or
! two lots at the latter figure. Several
lots were sold at 1870. The ruling fig
ures ranged from 12@13c.
The receipts for the week at Boston,
were three hundred and eighty-two box
es. The stock of choice old cheese was
very small, and holders were firm at
15@16c per pound, with sales in lots as
wanted by the trade. Common to fair
sold at 10@14c per pound. The only
new cheese received this season has been
few lots of skinned, which sold at 5
@7c. In fact it is almost impossible to
sell skinned cheese in that market, and
it will not pay to send it there.
The receipts at New York for the
week ending last Saturday, were nine
thousand seven hundred and ninety-four
boxes. The cable was 72s Cd. Gold
closed at 118B and the highest quotation
for cheese was f6c per pound. For the
corresponding time last year, the receipts
were six thousand five hundred and
twcnty-one boxes, and the exports were
seven thousand one hundred and two
boxes. The cable was 62s. Gold closed
OF 114B and the highest quotation for
cheese was 14lc.
AT st. Adams, Monday, the market
was fairly active, at 25 to 30 cents for
medium to good, and 30 cents for Sc
lections.
AT New York, fine yellow new in
firkins, reached 3G to 81 cents during the
week, but the quotation for prime State
is so to 50 cents
The Utica market is not paying over
30 cents for the best offered. The gen
eral tendency seems to be toward lower
prices.
AT Little Falls there were offerings of
sixty packages at % to 80 cents ruling
figures, 81 to % cents. About one-half
of the sales were for exports.
The receipts in Boston, for the week
were 8,136 packages against 6,693 pack
ages for the corresponding week last
year The market was in a declining
condition during the week, and buyers
held off as long as possible The sales
of New York and Vermont were at so.
"a cents per h., but at the close 80 cents
is the highest price that could be OBJ
tanned for round lots. Western sold at
30 to 30 cents, but further receipts could /
not be placed at over 80 cents for the
best. An increased supply of Western
was expected this week, and prices are
likely to further decline There was
very little difference between the quail
ty of Western and Vermont new butter.
and if the former be bought at 1 to 2
cents cheaper it win be taken in prefer
ence. The receipts of Vermont butter

were poorer than usual, and several re-
iected tubs sold as low as 25 cents, but
we have heard of no round lots of any
kind selling under 30 cents per Id. Old
butter is entirely out of market and we
dron quotations.

GREEK BRIGANDs. If we can depend
upon the word of King George of
Greece, the country over which he rules
is at least free from Brigands. That
sovereign insists that he has extermin-
ated the last of these rohber bands, and
that the mountains of his interesting
realm are as free from banditti as the
highways of England This will be
welcome news to travellers with classic
tastes, and Greek hotels will hereafter
do more profitable business than for
years past.
