COUNTY COMMITTEE.

A meeting of the Democratic Stand
ing Committee was held on Saturday
afternoon at o'clock In the Court
House as per call of the chairman.
Secretary called the roll The follow
ing members being present, Beaver,
Jesse Rittenhouse; Benton, ]. s. Kline;
Bloom K, Jno. Il. Townsend; Briar-
creek, r. +. Kshinka; Catswissa, Q. l..

Candidates, K. M. Tewksbury, VIM.
Krickbaum, Campbell, Quick, Chris
man, Rittenhouse, Mlllard, were also
present. The chairman opened the
meeting by few pertinent remarks
stating his reasons for calling the con-
vention together, desiring the cooper
alton of every committeeman in the
coming campaign, expressing wish
that we shall make it an aggressive
one, suggested that clubs be formed
and that by,united efforts of the Demo-
crats of Columbia County we may be
able to return majority for X. 4.
Pattison that will be worthy of our
county. L. M. Tewksbury in few
well chosen remarks that had the true
ring of Democracy, offered his services
to the chairman in whatever manner
he could be used stating also that he
was perfectly satisfied to pay what
ever the assessment committee may
assess him. VIM. Chrisman E q. fol-
lowed by calling upon the candidates
to respond liberally to the call of the
Chairman, as funds must be had to
conduct campaign. His past expert
ence was that the candidates some
times decline to pay their assessment,
placing the Chairman in very un-
pleasant position, causing bills to go
unpaid, &C., suggesting that we adopt
. rule that some of our counties have
adopted, that when a candidate refuses
to pay his assessment the County
Chairman shall not place his name on
the election ticket. ID. McHenry fol-
lowed by urging the committee to
have meetings in every district but in
order to do so the Chairman must
have nds..and, therefore, expressed a
hope that the Chairman will meet with
liberal response from the candidates.
r. G. f. Kshinka followed with some
very practical remarks in connection
with campaign work, believing that
by active work we can poll the largest
majority ever polled in our county.
John Knies made some good sugges-
tions, also approving of the action Of
the Chairman in calling the committee
together, believing that better results
will follow when harmony and unity
prevail. On motion the Chairman was
instructed to make arrangements for
opening the campaign by holding a
mass meeting in Bloomsbury on Oct.
9Th, inviting R. E. Pattison and other
prominent speakers. Ont motion a
committee was appointed on assess.
ments consisting of r. G. F. Kshinka
John Knies and the Chairman.
On motion adjourned to meet oil
Saturday, Oct. 4th.

PHILADELPHIA TARIFF REFORM CLUI

PHILADELPHIA TARIFF REFORM CLUB.
To the Citizens of Pennsylvania.
Your interests are involved in the
election of Congressman this fall.
The Monopoly Party proposes in
the Mckinley Tariff Bill to still further
advance the present duties on both
raw materials and manufactured goods,
thereby making you pay more for what
you use. The price of labor or farm
products will not be advanced and no
one will be benefited by this measure
but corporations, trusts, combinations
and some special manufacturers.
The advocates of real tariff reform
propose to give our industries free raw
materials thereby cheapening the cost
of goods to you, and also propose to
protect labor by sufficient duty on
ioaelgn manufactured goods, thus tariff
reform does not mean low wages. Free
raw materials would cause an average
saving to each voter of at least $50 q
year on the necessaries of life over
what he would pay for the same arti-
cles if the Mckinley Tariff Bill should
become law.
There are twenty-eight Congress-
men to be elected in Pennsylvania this
fall. The Monopoly Party have con-
troll of the offices and patronage, also
free access to the purses of the pro-
tected monopolies and we believe they
will use money to influence the results
in the debatable districts.
Many of the districts are close and
if properly organized can be carried
for the free raw material candidates.
We APPEAL TO YOU FOR VoLUN-
TARY CONTRIBUTION TOWARDS HELPING
THE CAUSE. Money will be needed for
legitimate expenses, such as meetings,
speakers, printing, etc. This is the
peoples fight. Every contribution
counts. Will you not assist by send
ing at once at least one dollar; or if
you can afford it five or ten dollars.
Do not leave this for your neighbor to
send, but send yourself and see that
your neighbor sends his, also. In un.
ion there is strength, and thousands Of
small contributions brought into one
fund and under one direction will
bring success.
Please send your contributions to

WASHINGTON LETTER.
From our Regular Correspondent.

Washington, Sept. 15, 1890.
Senator Carlisle thinks there is
great danger of financial panic if the
republicans persist in allowing the
amendment to the tariff bill, which
provides for the removal of all import
ed goods from the Government bond
ed warehouses before October l, to
stand. He says l went to Senator
Aldrich and begged him to withdraw
the amendment, but he refused. The
amendmenl was adopted because the
republicans wish to punish the import
ers of the country for their opposition
to the tariff bill We shall fight the
amendment in conference and try to
avoid the crash which threatens the
money market" Senator Vance was
was eq ially emphatic in condemning
the amendment. He said; 81 hardly
see how a crash can be averted, and
when it comes the country will have a
practical illustration of some of the in
quities of this tariff bill. We shall
endeayor to avert disastrous results in
the conference committee, but | fear
that we shall not he allowed to accom-
plish anything. The republicans SEEM
ed determined to be unjust, even if il
brings on financial panic. We can
only protest"
The tariff bill is going through the
form of being considered by the House
Ways aud Means committee, but that
committee will do nothing but recon-
mend non-concurrence in the Senate
amendments, leaving the fight to take
place in the conference committee,
The present intention is to gag the
House by the passage of a reso luton
introduced by MIR. Mckinley Saturday
to prevent consideration or voting up
on any of the Senate amendments by
the House sitting as a committee o.
the whole. This action has been takeI
under Boss Reeds orders-he knows
that there are number of republicans
in the house who would gladly vote
with the democrats if they could get {
chance, on several of the Senat
amendments.
Tue Louisiana delegation made
strong protest befo4e the Ways an
Means committee against the date
March l, 1S9l-set for the suga
schedule to 60 into effect. They show
ed the committee that it meant ruiz
for the sugar planters to be compelle
to sell their crop for coming wear in
market brought down by free foreig
s.gar, and asked either that the tim
be extended to July l, or that th
change go into effect immediatel.
They got no satisfaction from ii
committee.
The republicans are suspicious
quiet about the proposed extra sessio
and there is difference of opinion r
garding it among them. They g
want the extra session, but lots of the
want Mr. Harrison to assume the re
possibility by calling an extra sesno
while he, and the members of his ca
net insist that Congress should tai
the responsibility by taking a rece
to November 10. The object OF the
all is the same-the passage OF u
obnoxious force bill.

been introduced by Representati'

THE SITUATION IN IOWA.

Little is heard from the Iowa legisla-
tive deadlock except that it continues.
The lower house is in an exact tie and
can not organize. 1t keeps on voting day
after day with the same result over and
over again. 36 to &c, with the number of
pairs increasing daily. Now this simple
announcement means good deal. 1t
means that the Democratic governor
elect can not be inaugurated. Il signi-
ties that Dlr. Allison, the Republican
caucus nominee for senator, cannot be
reelected. 1t imports that no appro-
priation bill can pass, and that the mem
bers of the legislature and state officers
can draw no pay. It portends that no
persons will be able to draw pay as clerks,
pages, chaplain, ergeant-at-arms, door
keepers, committee room keepers, and in
other capacities.
In this condition of affairs the question
arises, which side viii give way first?
Which will be frozen out or starved out
first: Of course there must be COM
promise. The two parties must finally
agree to division of the legislative Of
tices OF honor and profit, or the Demo
cratic governor can not be inaugurated,
the Republican United States senator
be elected, necessary legislation can not
be enacted, and the public funds can not
be distributed to payment of public Of
ticials and the reward OF party workers.
The question becomes one of relative en-
durance between the two sides, and the
issue is awaited with some interest.
Wichita eagle., 1890-02-19
A QUESTION FOR STATESMEN.

If over production of the cultivated
area of land in this country has the
effect of increasing the production of
farm crops beyond the needs of the home
market, it would seem to be worse than
folly for the government to open any
more public land to settlement unless
some arrangement can be made by which
the large and growing surplus products
can find outside markets. Verify the
conditions that confront the statesmen
of the land are momentous. and there be
questions touching the material well
fare of the people of more concern
than the creation of more offices and
other like schemes for disbursing the
money that is beng collected from the
people IN excess of the governments
actual needs. To discourage production,
the fruits of labor, means to increase the
army of producing dependents, and
this cannot but aggravate the conditions
of distress extant. the very thing that
all agree must be relieved if possible.
Oh, it's easy enough to point out the ex-
isting troubles, but who can devise a
remedy?
