THE MESSAGE.

We are pleased TO give our readers this week
President Cleveland's message TO congress. II
was delivered on Tuesday, and no copies were
sent TO the press in advance II Is lengthy,
comprehensive. and able, and on the whole is
eminently sound. Every important subject
with which the government has had to deal
during the year is intelligenty discussed, and
in such a simple, forcible manner as to be
readily understood by every citizen. He reports
that he has Withdrawn the Nicaraguan treaty.
and favor a conservative policy in regard to
constructing q canal across the isthmus, and
would by all meals avoid entangling alliances
with other countries. He is also opposed to the
other treaties negotiated by his predecessor.
In referring TO the condition of the treasury.
he commends the report of secretary Manning,
and gives a recapitulation Of the same. He
treats the tariff question in q practical way,
and although not from free-trade standpoint,
he recommends substantial reduction in i'm
port duties upon articles of necessity, which Is
the first necessary step in the way of tariff
reform. He very sensibly recommends the
suspension Of the compulsory coinage of silver
dollars, He sustains his record on civil service
reform, and is opposed to any relaxation OF
the principles which underie the present laws
upon the subject. Every subject is discussed
in a straightforward and statesmanlike man
ner. Everyone should read the whole message
carefully. 1t lisa most instructive document.

Fire and Robbery at Boscobel.

A correspondent of The Lancas-
ter Teller, gives the folio wing ac-
count of the recent fire and heavy
robbery at Boscobel:
"The fire at Boscobel Thanksgiving
night at the GAINESVILLE store, owned
by Messrs. J. Churchill & Son, was a
very mysterious affair, and presents
very serious aspect in a financial
point of view to the owners. The
building belongs to Mayor jomStock,
and was not insured. Mr.. Churchill
and family, consisting of himself,
wife and an unmarried son, two
daughters and Son-in-law and his
wife, occupied the second story and
part of the rear of the building. The
first story and cellar were used for a
general store. About 10 o'clock p. NJ,
parties on their way to the rink dis
covered smoke issuing from the
cellar doors, which were shut and
fastened down. An alarm was
sounded, and the fire department was
Immediately on the ground, ready for
action. The smoke was so dense
that it was impossible for anybody to
90 into the cellar and stay long
enough to ascertain the whereabouts
of the fire. The family were quickly
gotten out of the house, when Mrs.
Churchill thought of their money,
and sent word to her husband to
get the money, He went to the place,
it seems, where they had been keep
ing it, between the feather bed and
straw tick, on which they slept,
but no money was found, nor has
it come to light since. There was a
large pocket book, containing $4,400
in bills, an envelope with 5000 be-
longing to his Son-in-law, and purse
with an unknown amount therein,
supposed to be about $500 or $500 in
silver and gold. making total of
about $4,000 stolen from their bed
during the excitement of the fire. The
theft must have taken place during
a time not 10 exceed five minutes.
The loss is heavy one, representing
as it does the Accommodations of a life
time OF hard work of an honest man,
who has been for twenty years or more
d resident Of Rock county. He came
to this city this spring, and had fully
determined to make this his future
home. 1t is sincerely hoped the money
and thief will be found. The fire
was confined to the cellar, and the
damage, aside from the loss of the
money and that occurring from
handling of the goods and from water.
is slight. This is the heaviest rob-
the express robbery being next in
Importance, for which the criminal is
now doing service at Waupun.'

The reelection Of Hon. John G.
Carlisle as speaker of the house Of
representatives with practically nc
opposition, is very gratifying to tariff
reformers, and to democratic tariff
reformers especially. 1t commits
the party fairly and squarely to the
policy of tariff reform. In 1880 and
some years prior, when the tariff
question was kept in the back
groud, protectionlsts were able to
control the party to a certain ex-
tent, but since the question has been
freely discussed and fully aired the
protectionists have, SO to speak, lost
their grip. In the reelection OF
Mr.. Carlisle as speaker of the house
is represented a demand by the
democratic panty for more equitable
tariff laws. This demand will grow
stronger and stronger until many Of
the most obnoxious features of oul
present tariff are wiped out.

The vigorous enforcement by

The vigorous enforcement by
President Cleveland of the laws
passed at the last session of Congress
for the protection Of the public do
main and the rights Of actual settlers
thereon is working a great benefit
to the country. In the matter OF
the public lands there has been
greater acknowledgement than in any
other matter with which the govern
ment has had to deal. Legislation
upon this subject most vital one
to the people-has been often un-
wise and by far too often the execu-
ton of laws aiming to correct
abuses has been but farce. The
policy Of the present administration,
which is to strictly enforce the laws,
as well as being refreshing is very
wholesome in its effects. The word
has gone forth that no encroach-
ments upon the rights'o the govern
ment or of settlers, or even the
Indians, will be tolerated, and those
who heretofore were inclined to
violate the laws know that they can
not do so and hope to go unscathed,
and they will therefore make up
their minds to observe them after
the manner of good citizens.

Samuel J. Tilden has written a
letter to John G. Carlisle in which
is set forth the necessity of provid-
ing better seaport defences. The
sage of Greystone says:
"In considering the state and management OF
the public revenues the subject involves the
questions whether we shall extingush the sur.
plus by reducing the rcvenuei or, whether We
shalt apply the surplus TO payments on the pub.
lie debt; or whether we shall seize the occasion
to provide for our sea cost dcfences. which have
been long neglected. am OF the opinion thai
the latter Is a paramount necessity which ought
TO precede the reduction of the revenue. and
ought also to precede an excessive rapidity in
the paymet Of the public debt"
Mr.. Tllden's letter is quite lengthy
and he concludes that while we
can afford to be deficient in means
of offense we cannot afford to bt
defenseless."

Commissioner Sparks recommends
that all the agricultural lands now
held by the government be reserved
for occupation by actual settlers
under the homestead law, and that
additional laws be enacted to pre-
vent fraud in the matter Of settle
ment. This seems very sensible
recommendation and will doubtless
be favorably received by the people
1t is to be hoped that congress will
act upon Gen. Sparks suggestion and
speedily enact the necessary laws.

The first annual report of Post
master General Villas was issued
Dec. 3D., and is valuable and in
structive document. For the fiscal
year ending June 80, 1885, the re-
ceipts of the post office department
aggregated s42,560,S43, and the total
expenditures s496o2,1SS, leaving a
cash deficiency of S7,0il ,345, or,
with the amount credited Pacific
railroads, total deficiency OF
$S,3S1,571. This difference is due,
first, to the decrease Of the revenues,
which amounts in total only of
S2,947,7 TAG; and, secondly, to an III
crease of the expenditures to the
extent of S9,466,955, of which
S6,042,539 have been in the cash
disbursements and S424,5l6 in the
cost of transportation upon the
Pacific railroads.
The immediate delivery system
has been favorably received by the
public and it is recommended that
the system be extended to all
offices.
A considerable portion Of the
report is devoted to a statement OF
the difficulty with the mail steam
ship companies. The case is fairly
stated, and good and sufficient
reasons given for the refusal of the
Postmaster General to disburse the
subsidy fund which congress placed
at his disposal. Besides the entire
correspondence with the combina-
tion and the several companies is
printed. The facts are thus gwen
to the public and no amount OF
paid communications to metropol-
itan journals which are on the
make will convince fair minded cit.
