The rains the early part of the week
werc not general. The showers which
fell in this city were copious and re-
freshing but in many directions did
not extend two miles from town. The
meteorological condition Of things
this spring is verysiinilarto that of
last year. The rains are local, and
unless the weather man spreads him-
self there is danger of another drouih,.

The NEOurih.V ~

We are on the heels of the Fourth of
July and all the indications point to a
dry, uninteresting celebration Of the day.
Why this is so is not clear. There is
enough patriotism in the town and
enough money to make it shine forth
properly If II could be concentrated and
given due direction.
The lNTELLIGENCEg has done all that
1t could in the line of exhortation, but if
there are none to follow, where's the use
of leading. Nearly all the little boroughs
and towns OF the county will hold cele.
brations, while the parent of them all
will remain silent. On, the times The
seal of degeneracy is upon you.

OLD CAPTAIN ISAAC BAssETT, the as-
sistsut door keeper Of the Senate, who has
served the Senate for ffty. eight years, will
be- delighted when Judge Thurman be-
Comea president of the Senate. In the old
days, when most OF the senators took snuff,
they kept Captain Bassetrs box 10 depleted
that he had two boxes of snun fixed 70 the
wall rear the door for their use Year by

up to take . pinch diminished. Al last
Senator Thurman became the only regular
patron, although Senator Hoar and Senator
johnson, of Virginia, would occasionally
delight the old doorkeeper's heart by tax
Ing pinch for sociabiilty's sake.
Eek SENATOR J. E. MCDoNALD, Of Ir-
diana, says Thurman Ia wonderfully and
peculiarly strong In Indiana In bis sup.

voice. He represents the highest form OF
Democracy. Indiana IL . peculiar state.
In ordinary elections she In close and un-
certain, but when the dividing line IL
drawn on question OF Democratic princi-
pie there are some seven, eight or nine
thousand voters who appear at tho polls
with Democratic ballots, and who inevita-
bly, and invariably decide the issue. To
these vOtera the nomination OF Thurman
appeals with irresistible force, for his nom-
instion means all that Democracy and
Democratic principle mean. The triumph

committee OF the Board upon the Safe
IIsrbor route, we have to say that 1t does
not seem to be sound. They would
have the road join the Reading road at
James street instead Of this side Of Diller-
vile, saying that mile and q half In dis
tauce would be saved. There would
probably he O half.mile in distance
saved, but the length OF railroad
10 he made would be greater
and 30 would the damages. The com
mittee do not say by what route they
would bring the new railroad to James
street. and we know Of none on which IL
could be cheaply taken there. They
hardly desire to run through the college
grounds, as they would apparently have
to do to reach their point.
In Joining the Reading at Dillerville,
a junction can als) be had with the
Pennsylvania railroad /; and this connec-
ton the new road must have. 1t joins
the Pennsylvania at Safe Harbor, and
there will be no difficulty there about the
depot, as the committee suggests, in Its
strange willingness TO state objections to
the scheme. We all know that no rail
road can refuse junction with another.
and il is plain that it will not be to the
interest of the Pennsylvania to turn lis
back upon this road which connects
with IL at both ends. 1t is to be an inde-
| pendent road run in the interest Of Its
| owners, and not leased or bound to any
other. 1t has two great railroads TO
serve and be served by. And 1t has q
| rich and populous country to traverse.
The people along the line are generally CIV
ing it to the right OF way through their
farms, for the benefit that 1t will be TO
them. The road will be built, and will
b, built to a connection near Dillerville
with the Pennsylvania and the Reading
going across the Pennsylvania at the
Dillervile cut and running down to the
Reading connection, between the two
roads. 1t can run to Lancaster If deemed
best, on its own track, but 1t is not cas-.
to see why it should go to this expens
when it can have depot facilities here fron
either or both of the present roads. IL tn
Board of Trade wants it to comes to th
James street junction with the Reading
and can show good reason for II and prC
vide route and pay tM damages, n
, doubt the road will be taken there. Bu
, its motion, unsustained by cash c
!. reason, Will not take 1t there; and th
we fear is a chronic condition Of |,
motions. These words we say TO II not il
malice or wrath, but in warning an
friendly admonition.

The Safe uarb bOr Railroad.

A correspondent, who is interested Ia
the building of the railroad from Ian
caster to Safe Harbor via Millersville,
complains in another column of this
days paper of the report made upon the
project by the railroad committee of the
Board of Trade, and his complaint seems
to be very well founded indecl. lie
aays, in the first place, that this
committee was not to make
report until the amount of Gamages
was ascertained. This is matter
between the committee and the gentle
msn actively interesting themselves in
the road, to whom the promise is said to
have been made, anc we have no particu.
lar criticism to make upon it save to say
that 1t was bad judgment in the commit.
tee to make its report while this informa.
ti0n yet remained to be gathered. And
We are constrained to say that the report
itself does not show either good judgment
or good temper towards the enterprise. 1t
IL probably owing to an infelicitous mode
Of expression of the committees views
that there is room given to charge it with
lack Of zeal for the project; because we
assume that a committee Of the Board of
Tfade of the city would not feel otherwise
than kindly towards any plan to bring
. railway to tie city, from any place;
and this particular railroad project is one
that should enlist the ardent sympathy
Of the Board Of Trade. The cold criti.
cism which this committee bestows upon
1t, ar0uses q suspicion which we have
moro than once entertained, that our
Board of Trade greatly lacks ardent
sympathy for the home improvements it
n supposed to have been born to promote
It has been long among us now and 8
footprint is not very conspicuous. 1t
provides us with q great abundance Of
words but deeds are sadly lacking. Where
money Is to be contributed the enthusi-
ssm of the Board of Trade does not fill
the basket; In fact 1t does not make q
show of nickels on the bottom even. In
the cass We are considering there was
Q right OF way to be secured
And 1t seems that the Board of Trade
undertook to pay the expense of securing
It. We do not know what this amount
might be. We do not see that 1t should
have been much, If anything. The com.
zittse was shocked at the callousness
With which the merchants heard their
cau Tor contributions. Perhaps they did
NOS circle around among the headlights
q tne Board OF Trade. Surely they
should have secured these few dollars
fhere otherwise We should consider the
t'oard's funds TO be As low as its vitality.

The High School Commencement.


The high school commencement Is
drawing near and brings to mind the
fact that two radical new departures are
to he made this year, which the people
will cordially welcome. The first is the
Limitation of the number of speakers TO
ten young gentlemen and ten young
ladies, the selections being based upon
merit. This will be a great relief for
those who have been accustomed to sit
for five weary hours listening to the hm-
ried and imperfect work of two score
young people permitted TO pose for two
| minutes each on the stage.
| The second reform is the stand against
present giving and flowers. Heretofore
the sight has been witnessed of floral
sea upon the stage and presents without
number at the feet Of some, in marked
contrast with the paucity Of presents for
others. The bitter heartburning Of those
whose parents were too forgetful or too
poor to thus mark the graduation day of
their children is hereafter to be absent, as
far as the board Of school directors can
provide. Heretofore arrangements were
made for the reception of these presents
1t will no, be SO this year, and the board
purposes to show by this its entire disap.
proval of this course of action.
Both are wise steps to be taken. Both
are more in harmony with the idea Of a
peoples college. Now let the young
ladies array themselves simply and mex.
pensively, so that there will be no painful
contrasts of habiliments among the fair
| girl graduates. The well.to.do parents
can set the example. Will they do so
