The term "wireworm" is applied to
the lsrva of several species of insects.
Some Of these live upon decaying wood
and are not injurious. These Larvae are
all long, in proportion to their breadth.
and this has suggested the common name.
The crops which are most injured by the
wire-worms re.potato, corn. cereal grains
and grasses. In England, where these
"worms" are abundant. potatoes on ends
of sticks are buried here and there to
serve as taps. and are taken up at inter-
walls. when the worms" are removed

! There is an extramdinary resolution in

Ns As ouu
! There is an extraordinary resolution in
the platform of the Pennsylvania Repub
licans gf-p7,s :, yr-gs, sa-Eez.
: That Gny surplas in .he pablo treas
ury arising from redundant revenue
should, after paying the national debt as
its condition permits, be distributed from
tiEns tatinls 60 the several states upon the
Oasis Of population. to relieve them from
the burdens OF local taxation and provide
means for the education OF their people"
The platform calls for An economical
administration of the affairs of the com-
monwcalth it contains not one word in
favor of an economical administration of
t.le affairs Of the nation 1t calls for the
abolition of all taxes lot required for
necessities Of the state, government; it
says nothing about abolishing the taxes
not required for necessities of the United
States government. L declares that fraud
and waste must be stopped at Harrisburg !;
it is silent about fraud and waste at Wash.
iEgton.
That is why we say the platform is dis.
honest. IT,
Mr.. Wharton Barker's scheme for dis
posing of the surplus revenue of the
United States government, over and above
bing congressman and stolen by rascals in
Office, is to distribute it among the states,
to be applied to state expenses ! Of this
plan tho leading Republican newspaper
in Philadelphia says: "We hope to see
it next year transformed into nationa!
Republican idea.'
If Congress. can constitrtionally levy
taxes to provide for any part Of the state
expenses or 20 relieve any part of the
burdens Of local taxation" it can levy
taxes to provide for all the expenses Of the.
states. This would be about equal to tho
scheme Horace Greeley used to laugh at Of
paying al taxes cut of the public treasury.
This is Why We say the platform is crazy.

4 seif-Cont-adIc:HFy Platform.

iibrriSDurg fA,Iiot.
The Republican platform adopted On
Wednesday is bundle of platitudes and
contradictions. The ninth resolution do
clareG that tho Republican party is COM
mIttcd tC. the abolition of all
taxes rot required for the necessities of
the state government" Tho second resO-
lction suggests that any surplus i'll the
public treasury arising :r0m q redundant
revenue should be distributed from time
to time to tho several states. Hero we
have in the same platform declaration
agains1 a redundant revenue for the state
aud provision for tho production of re-
dundan. revenues for the several states
through excessive fcieral taxation. Tha
joiner work of this platform is badly fitted
and will not doye.:ai!.
NGr dCes tee practice o: tho Republican
party i'll th;H stat1 conform tC tho profess
tons of the platform. For years a surplus
ui several millions OF dollars has been
maintained ia the state treasury showing
that the people arc and have been largely
ovcrtaxed. The Republicans havo never
mado an effort 10 l5.itic0 taxes TO the limit
of the necessities o. :he state rover Dinent.
On the contrary, when the Democratic
House Of Repre- seut atives passcd thu JeG-
kins bill for the diversion OF licenses
from the state treasury 20 the several
counties, the Republican Senate refused
to c3ncUG. Under kspubIicaa legislation
the revenues w.Cns tlo!u tho people are
several miliinIs in excess OF the reqTirc-
n2nts of Tie state government and the
resolution. o: the Republican platform
proposjD.: tle abolition e! all taxes not
