1t looks 50 much like an effort to get out
Of that investigation with some slight
semblance Of credit. -''7-
The point that Is carefully covered up
in the dispatch is that no denial Is made
OF the verdict Of the experts some months
ago to the effect that the accounts Of the
Treasury Department balanced to a cent.
Another point TO which no reference is
made, Is the ostentatious announcement
Of the Senator about a year ago that
he was on the eve Of developing
something tremendous to the country.
He made such an announcement 10
the Senate. 1t was almost startling in It's
character. Now comes the denouement.

Governor Hartranfrs Message-PennsyI.
yanIn Finances, dc.

HAERlBuRG, January s.-Governor Hart
ranft's message shows that the estimated
deficiency In tho general fund at tho close
Of the present fiscal year will be S2,1H9, ,OGO.
The revenues OF general fund for 1878 fell
and the estimated revenues OF 1879 are
10000 below the same standard, which
will make altogether for the two years in
which the deficiencies will have prinoI-
pally accumulated, falling of in rev.
enues of$l 100000
Tho Governor believes, however, that
by rigid enforcement OF tho tax laws,
spreading payments OF most Of the appro-
priations over two years (lS70 and 1880,
keeping expenditures strictly within esti-
mates, and diverting certain surplus reve-
nuea from tho sinking fund to the general
fund, this deficit can be made up and tho
expenses Of tho next two years Gan be met
without resort to additional taxation.
Taking the two years together, the Gov.
ernor believes that the revenues will not
only be sufficient to meet all expenses but
that about one million Of the public debt
Gan be redeemed by the end Of 1880,
and the State he able to commence in 1881
without deficit. Tho state has paid for
suspension by labor troubles an avert
age of over Sl04, 900 annually, for the past
eight years, while the direct loss to capi.
tai and loss in wages TO the working class
es, from enforced idleness, has been enor.
nous, amounting to many millions.
The Governor devotes considerable
space to the discussion Of the labor Ques.
ton and accompanies his message with
report OF the Commissioner who visited
England recently, commissioned under
the seal Of this State to investigate the
practical workings and results Of the
various systems Of arbitration In force
there. He suggests tho widest publlCa.
tion OF this report (which he strongly on
dorses), especially amongst the laborinG
classes. No reference Is made to resump'
ton or Its effects, and tho message con
cludes with a feeling tribute to the mem
ory Of three recently deceased Pennsyl
yanians, Henry Arnett Brown, Bayard
Taylor and Morton McMiChael.

Tue Wheeling Register has raised its old
rry for q straight party vote at the coming
city election. Ii there is anything that
the people Of this community are averse
to doing it is to following the advice ofthe
Register. Even the Democracy take a sort
Of delight in turning up their noses Mt the
Byisr's advice. They know that the
clitor Of the Register gives them advice
that he lOcsnot follow himself, only when
it suits him. For instance, they know
that il Major James Sweeney should
happen to he the Democratic candidate
for Sergeant at the coming election the
editor OF the Register will rejoice in his de-
feat, and they have no idea that he will
vote tor him. There are those who be-
lieyc that the said editor did not want
either Captain Andy Wilson or
Ex-Governor Jacob elected to the
Legislature last fall, and that his
drives at the street railway were really
shots At the Captain in disguise. Hence
they are not likely to pay much attention
to his present war whoop. They paid no
attention whatever to it in October, but
on the contrary rallied in force to the sup
port Of the very man on the Republican
ticket who was the special target OF the
Registers personal Nnimosity. Neither
will they pay any attention to it this Jan.
Uary. In other words, they will vote as
they please. They claim to enjoy the
same measure Of party freedom that the
editor assumes to himself when he desires
to bolt the ticket, He bolts when it suits
him, and they know it. 1t is poor rule
that allows an organ grinder to crack the
lash over other people and then kick out
Of the traces himself.
The INrELLIGEScIR has no axe to grind
jn asking the people TO vote for tho best
they can find for the city offices. II
has presented good reasons why party
politics should not under the present cir
cnmsianccs enter into the choice OF the
people The Register does not attempt to
re!ute those reasons, but cndcavors to cx
cite party prejudice by intimating that
there is trick Of some kind on foot
