grants from the County Wicklow resident in
New York. and under the sideboard is an old
iron cuirass, blazoned in faint colors with
boar's head. the family crest. and denied here

You please, find room for bestOwing there. On
the left hand side an upright clock occupies
niche and framed addresses from the men of
Meath. the Cork election committee of 1880
and the distinguished New Workers who greeted
the uncrowned king of Ireland on his visit in
the same year decorate the walls. On the other
side is a large open fireplace for wood, above
which Is a fine engraving of Grattan debating
for the union in the Irish house of commons
fanked by addresses from the guardians of
wexford Union. the Ancient Order of Foresters
and the resolution passed by the common coun-

tary's office in doing their business.
We assumed that the prUthonotary
was paid for the use Of the room because
we did not suppose that he would allow
business firm to advertise and use his
offioe ~ theirs without compensation.
We understand now that no compensa-
tion II received by the prothonotary save
his fees for taking the afIidavits. But we
do not withdraw our exception 10 the
propriety Of permitting public Office to
be advertised a. the Office at which q
pension attorney will meet his clients I;
and the fact that the Washington at
torney has Lancaster associate only
makes II the more unnecessary that
the prothonotary's Office, rather than
the associates Office should be made his
place for doing his business. The only
legitimate use he had for the prothono-
tary's ONCE was to go there to have his
affldavits taken.

Bribing Farmers.

Inspired by an article in the New
York Tribune our contemporary the
Nep Era editorially commends the Nc
Kinley tariff bill to the farmers and
urges them to write to the chairman of
- the ways and means committee and ad.
nlsx.dise the passage of the bill. Every
PhilaJelpGGE In the entire commonwealth is
escond base. G5t pathetically to send letter
catcher from Rsfntative in Congress to give
season with I.ebaro the proposed schedule. " Do
Everybody but.n, let no one neglect this,
that the Athletic ant ~ shouts the Nec Era
u win keep thy Of fear that Republican
series from thu may refuse to sanction
sion Inc e for the taxation Of potatoes and
.s ua.y, amer necessaries of life 1t reprints the
:. Tribune list of agricultural articles
affected by the bill giving the present
and proposed duties and seeming to
make very liberal bid for the support
of the farmers. But as the PHILADELPHIA
Telegraph points out in au article which
we republish, this tax is n two-edped
sword and by thus increasing the cost
of food they add to the price of the things
they buy. If the value of farm products
imported in year is seventy y-five mil
lions,a claimed, that figure ought not to
excite alarm, as its effect depends upon
Is proportion 10 the WnOle value OF farm
products throughout the United States,
and this is simply SO vast rs to be be-
yond estimate. And, further, the i'm
portation must chiefly find sale in the
great cities of the seaboard, where thous.
ands toll in the most abject poverty who
would severely feel the proposed tax.
The effect might be to encourage truck
patches in the waste lands of Jersey but
the great staple crops from which the
average farmer makes his living can not
he protected because they are not i'm.
ported but exported. And surely agri-
culture is not an infant industry that II
needs any pap of this kind. At fairs
and grangers' meetings we hear that II is
as,old as the human race and the sturdy
foundation pillar Of every thriving state.
In 1t all national prosperity must have
it's source, and from 1t the fresh and Wig.
orous blood of national life IL drawn. II
languishes because Of the narrow policy
that chains down our commercial de-
velopment to the home market and will
not permit us TO send abroad the surplus
products Of our factories as well as our
surplus corn and wheat.

Tae Prothonotar,,s Office.

We print elsewhere communication
from Prothonotary Mentzer concerning
the use of his Office by a Washington
pension agency. We understand that the
fact IL not disputed that tue prothono-
