THERE is whisperings around Wash
ington to the effect that the Repubi
cans will pass no tariff reduction bill
this session, because at the end of the
session the treasury surplus, it is ex-
pected, will have been turned into a
deficiency. The rumor may possibly
be true about no bill being passed,
but if so it is partly because the Re-
publican protectionists have not been
able to throttle the demand for Tariff
Reform among their Republican col
leagues. The cry for free raw mater
ial is becoming aloud one, particularly
from the Eastern manufacturers. Re-
Gently Senator Hale, who has been as
pronounced protectionist as Blaine,
presented long petition from New
England manufacturers, asking that
raw materials nsed by them be ad-
mitted free of duty.

THERE has been recently, and is
now, marked activity in the ranks of
the Democratic Society, of Pennsyl-
vania, Of which useful organization
nearly every Democratic Club in the
State is a member. Vigorous steps
are being taken to disseminate true
Democratic principles. The organi-
zation itself is part of the National
Association of Democratic Clubs.
This represents neither men or
factions, but the Democratic party.
Every day primary societies are send
ing the names of their officers and
members to the Secretary of the
Pennsylvania Society. A general
committee has recently been formed,
consistingof one delegate from each
club in the State. They report that
in no single district in Pennsylvania,
where there has been live, earnest,
well supported Democratic Society,
has there been failure to increase
the Democratic vote.
The Jefferson Democratic Society,
of Freeland, will celebrate the birth
of Thomas Jefferson by a public
meeting in Yannes' opera house next
Saturday evening; and it is expected
that as many of our citizens as can do
so will be present.

! Now, 18th day of March, A. d., 1890 the Au-
ditors of Foster Township, after having COM
pleted the audit of the accounts of the officers
of said township, and finding that some of the
accounts, although Just and true, are irregular,
and not as they should be, make the following
suggestions as to what they consider the duties
of the officers OF said township:
1st When the Collector is authorized to col
lect more than one tax, or kind of tax, a separ-
ate account must be kept for each, and when
payment is made by him to the Treasurer the
amount paid on each tax, special or regular,
should in every case be mentioned. The Col
lector, not being authorized to act as Treasurer,
should not receive as money, orders drawn on
the Treasurer.
2d The Treasurer should keep a separate ac-
count for each fund, and in no case apply the
money collected for one purpose to another.
3rd. The Supervisors should, as nearly as
possible, keep within the regular tax levy and
at the beginning of each year take such steps
as will, during the current year, settle up all
accounts of the previous year, and thus pre-
vent the accumulation of stale claims and de-
mands.
Recapitulation of the present condi-
ton of the finances of Foster township,
showing the present indebtedness as far
as can be ascertained.

CARE the Tariff Reformers afraid
to stand up and be counted?" asks
the old whig organ of New York. At
the last Presidential election, when
the Democratic ticket was knitted by
the aforesaid whig organ, the Tariff
Reformers stood up and were counted.
The count showed them to be in the
majority by 100000. And the Tariff
Reform ball is still rolling.

SALVADOR CHAMPION.
He Beats Tenny in Comparatively Easy
Race

MONMOUTH PARK, n. J.. August 12-
Salvador is champion. He has won the
title in a fair and square contest with
Tenny the only horse on the American
turf who has any right to dispute the title
with him. Compared to the other matches,
today's was an easy thing for Salvador and
decisively settled the question of suprem-
acy between the two great horses. They
carried even weights Q22 pounds) and the
odds were Salvador to 10, Tenny to 5.
Salvador on the outside got away a short
head in front. They ran in this
order for five furlongs when Garri-
son let out a link and Tenny
shot to the front by half a length At
the stretch Murphy sent Salvador out and
Tenny was beaten. When Murphy found
he had Tenny beaten, he eased up and Gar
rison did the same; it was tame finish,
Salvador winning by four lengths. The
fractional time of the races was: Quarter,
261l; half, 501[: three-quarter, Ill; miles,
l:43; mile and quarter, 200; mile and a
half, 2:3515
The winners of the other races were:
Meriden, Strathmeath, Aella, Eurus, Gray
Dawn.
SARATOGA, n. Y, August Following
are the winners of today's races: Belle
dor, Ruperta, Cleopatra, Lavinia Bell,

THE STRIKE APPARENTLY ENDED.


NEW YORK, August 12.-At the Grand
Central depot this morning there no longer
existed even the semblance of a strike.
Passenger trains were coming in and going
out with all the appearance of their usual
regularity. General Manager Toucey ar
rived at his office at $50 this morning and
found there awaiting him a telegram from
the assistant superintendent of the SYRIA
cuse road stating that order has been fully
restored there and trains are running
without interruption. This. he said, ended
the strike.
The strikers were in secret session
at Ledwith hall at FOrty-ffth
morning receiving reports from the
various pickets on duty. One Ofithe officials
said TO a reporter: I'VE are just as strong
now as we were on Friday night. The
railroad officials have been giving out
false reports to the newspapers in order to
discourage the strikers" The strikers
still maiptain that they have yet another
card to play, but are reticent as TO Just
what that card IS 1t is said that the press
committee of the strikers is preparing a
report for publication which will show the
position of the local assemblies and the
connection of the general board with the
strike.
Notwithstanding the statements of the
officials of the New York Central railroad,
that the backbone of the strike is broken,
and the apparent belief Of the public in
these assertions, the strikers themselves
are still confident that the crisis has not
yet been reached and that before the week
Is over the road will be tied up as tight as
81 drum. This belief was strengthened by
the speeches made at the meeting of the
strikers which was held this afternoon.
About 600 of the men met at O'Clock.
Master Workman Lee spoke.
Reports from towns along the line stated
that the strikers are all as hopeful as they
were on Friday night.
The strikers will meet again tomorrow
and hear reports from the engineers.
They evidently believe the latter Will sup
port them. Subsequently Mr.. Lee said:
1.-The general executive board alone has
the power to order out at one time the
men on the road throughout the country
and any apparent delay in forcing conclu
sions is because we are now waiting en-
dOrsement by that body, which meets to-
morrow in Detroit
Mr. Lee stated that no conference had
been had with Mr.. Powderly. At present
Lee is the one that is directing all the
movements of the strikers here.
AT OTHER POINTS.
SYRACUSE, y. Y. August I2-Captain
Foley, in charge of Pinkerton men at East
Syracuse, declares the strike ended. No
striker has appeared there since the yard
was cleared yesterday evening. The force
of 10 men are still there Early this
morning railroad men began reloading
cattle cars. Freight trains are being
rapidly made up. All the men needed are
at command. All trains are running on
