THE PHILADELPHIA TIMES. 1884.

THE PHILADELPHIA TIMES, 1884.
THE TIMES will enter upon the new year
fore IN its hlstory-mOre widely read and
quoted, more heartily commended, and more
tiercely criticized, with a more complete Or
ganiZatiOn. and an able SSOff of contributors
and with the same independence and fearless
ness hat has made it successful and powerful
in the past
dates TO advance, but will meet every issue, as
1t has ever done. with consistent devotion to
the right, TO honest government, and the pub
he WelIafe- ANA, WnlIe maintaining its posi-
ton as the leading journal of Philadelphia it
viii aim to be continually in the advance in all
that can add value to a newspaper.
The value of a newspaper is not in its size or
display, but in the intelligence and care, the
cOnciseness and freshness with which it is
edited. THE TINES spends laYishly for news
from all parts of the world, but all its dis
patches are carefully edited and condensed. in
order to give the complete news of the day in
the most concise and attractive shape, and with
. 1t Il large variety of entertaining and InStruc-
tive reading. The best writers at home and
abroad are employed to enrich its columns.
and to make it journal adapted both TO the
busy man and to the leisure of the home cir
Gle, a welcome visitor to intelligent and honest
citizens Of every political, religious and social
taste.
THE WEEKLY TINES is altogether different
from the weekly newspapers OF twenty years
ago. The day of those papers have gone by.
The telegraph and better local newspapers
+ everywhere, especially in the thriving centres
+ Of rural population, have made the Old weekly
metropolitan newspaper unsatisfyfng. Those
that cling to their ancient usageS have lost
their hold ON our fOTward-mOving people; they
are but shadows of their former greatness and
they have but a shadow of their former power.
Those papers have had their usefulness, but il
Is gone; and, with it, they are gPing, too. 1t
was not the fault of the papers: IL was the i'm
prOYement of the country that brought about
the change Men and women, wherever they
live. now require treSheF news; and they re-
qfire more than news.
THE WEEKLY TIMES gathers off the types of
every passing week whatever has lasting in
terest TO the people at large, and sets il before
them in such generosity of paper and print as
would have aStOnished Us all twenty yeors ago.
DAILY-Twelye cents week. fifty cents a
month. IS q year, two cents a copy.
SUND4I-Eour cents copy. - year

THE CONVENTIONS.

The Republican convention at St.
Augustine was grand rumpus, and
the "boys" were allowed to do CON
siderable talking which made a dis
play, but did no good. Among these
takers our Mr.. Hind particularly
distinguished himself and according
to our correspondent ''played the
very devil with the ofice-holders. !"
But it all amounted to nothing in
the end, and the delegation goes
solid for Arthur as long as he dis
tributes the offices. At the same
time Mr.. Hind has shown his power
as a political John Sullivan, and
some of his blows on Ledwith SEEM
ed very effective.
'On whatmeat has this our Caesar fed,
That he is grown so huge"
He made square fight, and defeat
in no sense detracts from the credit
due him. He has at least kept Led
with out of the delegation.
The selection of Pensacola by the
Executive Democratic Committee is
suggestive of the strength of an ell
ement which is enthusiastic in sup
port of Gen. Perry for Governor.
And IN all Ehe State there is no man
stronger with the people, of purer
record or better loved. There is no
man IN all tpe State we would more
gladly see crowned by the coming
victory or who would be more en-
tirely supported by the Democrats
of East Florida. If he is strong in
the West, and has any personal fol-
lowing to swell the party vote, give
us Perry.
But the nomination of a Congress-
man from the Second District re-
quires more care, and much delicate
discrimination. If the committee
decides on a rigorous campaign and
the warfare is made aggressive on
living issues, there is little doubt of
triumph, and the right man to lead
us viii be found in good time. The

After the storm.

Referring to the late exciting politi-
cal contest, the Stock Report enunci-
ates this wholesome truth The Uni
ted States is greater than either the
Republican or Democratic party. No
matter which wins the fight the
country will still exist. Twenty-Five
million people denounce the other
twenty-five millions as traitors and
as actuated by the basest and most
selfish motives. The other twenty
five million denounee the first twenty
five millions in the same terms. Az
ter the election the whole fifty mil
lions shake hands and bury the
Ratchet for four years. Notwithstand-
ing all the predictions of both parties,
the Gov eminent will move on in its
regular course whether Blaine or
Cleveland occupies the Presidential
chair. We are a great nation and Will
remain a great nation. Both Demo-
Gratis and Republicans are Americans,
and both parties at heart are actpated
by a desire to forward the interests Of
the country. Whichever party gs;2s
control will steer the ship of State to
the best of its ability. After The re-
suit is decided, all the balderdash
about the .antagonism of the British
lion, which has disfigured the speeches
of orators Of the campaign, will sink
out of sight. The orators who have
told the laboring men that they are
the back bone of the couAtry, will look
for some other method of supporting
an idle existence. The storm has
passed away ana the only wrecks
strewn along the shore are the defeat
ed and impecunious candidates.

Derivation of Tariff.

So much has been said about the
tariff in the campaign which has just
closed tbatthe people WILDE Interested
in learning something of the deriva-
ton OF The word. It's origin IS not en-
tirely clear. Some writer's trace il to
Tarifa, a seaport town on the straits
of Gibraltar, where the Moors were
accustomed to levy tribute upon the
cargoes of vessels passing in or out.
Archbishop Trench Is one OF the au-
thorities for this derivation, which
finds much favor among The Free
Traders. But the great French die
tionary maker, Littre, says tariff is
derived from the Arabic ta'rif. 10
make known. Hence .ar.H means q
list setting forth or making known
the rates Of tolls on merchandise. In
this view of the derivation il would
appear that the name of the seaport
Tarlfa may have been given 10 il be-
cause tolls were collected there; and
not that the modern practice OF col
Letting tolls on cargoes takes the name
OF tariff from the fact that the Moors
exacted tribute at Tarifa.

After Twenty-four Years.

The election is over, the vote
counted and Grover Cleveland IS
elected President ofthe United States
The official returns from New York
give him 1,076 pluralty, which gives
him 30 electoral votes, or is more
than enough to win. OF course We
Democrats all feel proud Of the VIC
tory. This is the first President we
ever voted for who was elected. Our
Republican friends are coming to the
conclusion a change won't hurt the
country. OF curse it will not.

salt.

Ever since this valley was first set
tied, says the Salt Lake Tribune, salt
has been collecting along the shores
Of the lake for domestic and mechan-
zeal purposes. Salt works have been
established at various places, but the
most of it has been collected in sloughs
where by evaporation it deposits on
the ground. About all the salt now
collected is for the use of silver mills,
which consume about $4,000 tons per
annum, as follows: Utah uses about
5000 tons, Idaho 5000 TO 5000, Mon
tans 5000 to 100, and Colorado about
500 tons, drawn from the lake. The
price, loaded on the cars, averages
about 81 to 50 per ton.
Sacramento recently shipped 10000
bushels of sweet potatoes to Chicago
TO make into pumpkin pies.
