The New York Eerdld has been making
inquiries throughout Pennsylvania, with
view Is feeling the public pulse, in bust
ness way, and it is forced to believe from
the replies it has received in regard 10 the
prospects for the immediate future, are
not uniformly rosy. Says the Herald.
1t is the country Of coal and iron, and these
cyclope an industries have been unable to &C.
commodate themselves to the times with the
ease ofthe smaller interests. The great clum.
sy giants have gone down from the hill of
inflated prices with heavy steps, and at every
stumble 1t seemed as though they would
bring down the whole country side along
with them. But they are on the solid ground
OF 'hard-pan" now, or very near II, and
though they send forth terrific grows it must
be remembered that il is a vigorous pinch
which reaches a giants Consciousness.
The coal giant is in gloomy state

know II his combination will hold, and in
the thought that some Of the mines will
take out as mu oh anthracite as they please
and 50 force Others 10 still lower prices il the
latter would compete tor the trade, he cannot
say that the next year will be a profitable
one. The iron business has not the same
ihiculty TO contend with but disturbance
in the coal trade naturally makes il a little
uneasy. In most of the manufacturing lines
1t expects TO do well. The manufacture of
steel is, however. advancing steadily in i'm
portance and is making fair profits. Iron
shipbuilding has received n momentary i'm

surprising that surplus capital is timid

Remarkable Copyrfs mt Law in spain

The new copyright law in Spain goes
farther in the path Of protection than any
similar law has ever done in any other
country or age. Unfortunately, in grant
ing an exclusive right to the speaker in the
speeches member may deliver in the
Cortes i, strikes severe blow against the
freedom of the pres, and consequently
upon liberty. Any speaker may, under i;s
provisions, at any time give notice that he
reserves all rights of copyright in the words
he utters, and thus the people generally
may be barred from all knowledge Of the
sentiments of their Representatives.. Il
would not be difficult 40 to coEstrue and
apply the law as to make it possible to car
~ on debate involving every safeguard
Of the Constitution, the very essential ele-
ments of freedom, without allowing any
one out Of Madrid to be one whit wiser,
and Madrid, unassisted by the Mediterra-
mean cities, could easily be overpovered by
the garrison under the command of any un-
scrupulous and daring soldier.

American En,erpr,.e I'm ar.x,,.

The surprising progress made in the
United States within q century and not
outstanding the retarding influences of
three great wars, to say nothing of Others
incidental TO the development and opening
up of an enormous territory, proves be-
yond question that the American people
are possessed of a spirit of enterprise that
conquers every difficulty. Failure has long
ago ceased to be regarded as among the
possibilities when scheme worthy of the
age is suggested and Undertaken. If any
doubts can be raised on this point they are
at once dispelled by study Of the history
of American enterprise not only at home,
but abroad for the sphere of our activity
has been widened TO the limits OF the
earth, and the American has become a
true cosmopolitan in his competition
with other naiionalities for carry
ing out the great works that
mark the material progress of the century.
But II the American excels in any degree
it is in the construction of railroads on the
gigantic scale that traverses continents and
connects distant oceans with the iron bands
that emancipate peoples, but hold the
treasures of the touudiess forest and fertile
plain within the grasp of man and give
him control of the inestimable wealth in
metals that lies hidden in the bowels Of the
great mountains. Our own continent Is
traversed by such roads. constructed in the
face OF extraordirsry difficulties and in a
manner that has challenged The admiration
OF the world. In other countries also the
work of development proceeds apace under
the same influences that have conquered
success in ours, and it is a matter Of which
We may be justly proud that American en-
terprise pursues its triumphant courre even
in the forest depths Of tropics! Brazil, under

PROMOTED.

Col. r. c. Clowry, who has been so long
known to the public as Superintendent OF
the Southwestern Division of the Western
Union Telegraph, with headquarters at
St Louis, has been promoted to the pos
ition of General Western Superintendent,
and will hereafter be located at Chicago
All those who ever had occasion to trans
act business with Col. Clowry, will hear of
his promotion with pleasure, for he is
known to all such as one of the most gen.
tlemanly and accommodating of officers,
while at the same time a thorough going
man, energetic, industrious and honest.
The TINES takes occasion to join with the
general public in congratulating the
Colonel upon his promotion to a position

WHAT Is REPUBLICAN,

w. F Chalfant, in taking charge of the
Emporla Ledger, said:
ave are in favor OF the National Banking
system, for the reason, in our Judgment, thai
IL is the best system Of banking ever estab
lished in this county"
The Emporia Ledger has always been q
paper OF rather doubtful Republicanism and
we are not surprised that IL should give utter
ance to such a sentiment as the above, bu,
now comes the Manhattan Nationalist, which
has always professed to he severely orthodox
and endorses the LedgT's sentiment as fol-
iows:
at will not be long until all Republicans
will stand on that platform. All that Il
needed is proper presentation of the iacts. y
We are surprised at the Nationdlist. We had
always supposed, from its loud professions,
that it cordially Endorsed the Republican
party, bat by indorsing such a sentiment as
that quoted above from the Ledger it places
itself in direct opposition 10 one of the prin-
cIples OF the Republican party. The last Re
publican State Convention adopted plat
form which makes the following declaration
upon the question under conderation:
I'VE favor the withdrawal of National
Bank notes, substituting therefor the green
back currency issued directly by the Govern

The New York Times, which has shown
. more determined opposition to the silver
dollar than any of the other gold organs,
is forced to concede that there is, at least, a
strong probability that Congress will do
something to defeat the scheme of the
New York banks, which have entered into
conspiracy 10 nullify the silver law. The
Times says:
There can DE no doubt that The House Com.
mitiee on Banking and Currency is favorabiy
disposed to any legislation cslculsted TO
drive the New York banks from the position
they have taken in regard to sill
Yer deposits, and 1t is by no means certain
that they will not report a bill increasing

Mr.. Hewitt. who used to be Tilden's de-

Of a full and searching investigation into
the cipher-dispatch business. A New York
paper commends Hewitt's Judgment, and
adds:
This will strike the coparceners as a cold
biooded view OF the question, but it is never
theless the only view a shrewd Democrat can
take. The party only hope is to ind a scspe-

RAILWAY LEGISLATION,

Referring to the necessity for legislation
BY the national government, to regulate the
railway traffic of the country, the Chicago
Journal says:
ought TO be pushed. The task would be an
arduous one, perhaI s impracticable; but no
risk would be involved In attempting to
break II mp. Just now the trunk lines have
. combination by which they hope to render
competition between themselves impossible.
The man Fink, who is the agent OF the lines,
is crowned with imperial authority. We d"
not believe the plan can be executed, but its
attempt shows what is the especial danger of
the public from the monopolists.

And while We do not endorse the paper po-
litically, we like it for its individuality, its
independence, its nerve and pluck to speak
out what it thinks. Not long since THE
TINES had the whole Radical press OF Kansas
barking at its heels because Anthony dared
