An Unsound POLICY.

In imitation of a general
policy of the West the four
new States manifest a ten,
dency tohx the salaries of pub
lie officers at a vey low rate.
This is not sound policy for
two reasons Its effect will
be to throw the important
State offices into the hands OF
rich men to whom the salary
is no object or to put tcmpta-
ton in the way of poor officials.
Official salaries should be com
mcnsuratc with the RESPONSE
bilitics and duties Of public
positions. PhiIadlIbAia Lcd,g0

The Need Of Statesmen in Con-
gress.


gress.
From the Kent News.
During the next six years.
in all human probability, a con-
test will be waged in the
American Congress in both
houses upon the principles OF
tariff reform. which not only
concerns the immediate wei
fare of every citizen in the
State and of the country. but
upon the determination of
which we believe, hangs the
whole future of the agricultural
interest Of the country as well
as the ultimate peace and good
order of society. When this
battle is fairly joined between
the people on the one hand
and the tariff lords on the
