A Resident of Coraopolis Says Bad Govern

Squire j. F. Ferree does not see much

ing to establish party lines in Coraopolis.
He has seen the borough government torn to
tatters during the last four -"qrs, and dur
ing these years party lines ave been in
great measure obliterated. The result has
been constant internecine strife and denor-
aliz4tion.
As remedy the Squire advocates party
reorganization. He urges that Republicans,
Democrats and Prohlbitionists all hereafter
nominate straight party tickets, and thinks
there is chance for each to secure recog-
milton in this manner, as he says eacn must
put up the best material it has in order 10
command support, and he thinks enough
voters could be induced to vote for the best
and fituest man offered.
The plan may be feasible at present, as
during several years past there has been a
considerable growth in all the parties there,
but the Independents and Citizens move
ments four years ago grew out of the great
preponderance of the Republican party, and
the desire of so many members of it to hold
Office. Democrats did not find anything on
the platter for them, and as all Republican
aspirants for positions could not be accom-
modated, the result was all sorts of combina-
tions, and the outcome has not been salts

office but did want good government.

Speaking of shirt-making, f. F. Werntz
says, that San experience of Is years devoted
to ameliorating the lives of men who wear
shirts, leads to the cotroboration of the
testimony of former witness, that man is
wonderfully and fearfully made Locality
plays an important part in moulding the
human form. There is a mountainous spot
in Pennsylvania where only square shoulders
are found, with those boon companions,
ozone and deep chests. A review OF the
data carefully preserved in these years,
demonstrates the vast degree to which the
forms OF men are capable of diverse. pro-
portions-no two are found exactly alike;
that shirt-making is an art, and the successful
shirtmaker an artist, whether he sketches the
subject, or puts on the finishing touches.
Men are subject to variation in measure
ments, and one of the most successful mer-
chant tailors never makes a suit Of clothes
without measuring the patron anew. This
Is also i'm portant in shirtmaking.
Fancy shirts, with detached collars and
cuffs, after a brief backset, are again in
great demand. The patterns for this season
include many unique and attractive designs,
calculated to fill the eye of the most fastidi-
GUS Fancy bosom shirts. with white col

They will be largely used for spring and all

witnessed the entire of sanitary principles
in the manufacture of shirts, AS well as in

CLASSIFYING WARES.

Potters Claim the Tariff Has REDUCED tbe
Price of Goods-A Conference at the
Anderson Hotel Yesterday-Benefts OF
a Tariff
A conference Of the Western potters, with
Eastern representatives, was held at the
Anderson Yesterday to finish the classi-
fcation of wares and ix the discounts for
the trade. The prices of all kinds OF pottery
goods have advanced slightly, but the
question of price was not considered yester-
day, except where change in classlhcatlon
might make difference.
j. Fl. Brewer and j. A. Campbell, OF
Trenton, represented the Eastern manuiact-
urers. E. NJ. Pearson, of Wheeling, was
Secretary, and among the others present
were John n. Taylor and John r. Wiley,
of East Liverpool. Mr.. Wiley said the
average discount allowed was from to
per cent. The trade is good, and the potters
throughout the country are we'll supplied
with orders. Since the new tariff went into
effect the Eastern importers have been buy
ing most of their goods from the home
manufacturers, and this has helped the
business. He claims the tariff has reduced
the price. Until the importers met With the
competition of american makers they
charged exorbitant rates for plain and fancy
wares, making barrels of money. Under
the old tariff package was sold tor $50,
now it is down to $40, reduction of 80 per
cent A low tariff does not help the con-
sumers, TOR the importer gobbles the benefits
intended for them, but with American
manufacturers on competing basis the i'm
porters are forced to come down to living
prices. Mr.. Wiley is firm believer in the
beneficial effects of tariff for manufactur-

MAY DO SOME GOOD.

Clerk Says That Ministerial Announce
ments at Hotels Fail to Catch Many
Hearers-Guests Don't Like Religious
Oratory.
Some local ministers have lately revived
the custom of printing the location OF their
churches and the subjects for the Sunday
services on slips of paper and distributing
them among the hotels. A reporter noticed
lot on several hotel counters yesterday.

but it didn't work very we'll. People
who stop at hotelsare always very restless,
and rush up to the desk so times day to
lock for letters or kilograms in their key
boxes. When they saw the ministerial cir

MILLS PILIyG UP STOCK.

Railroads Promise a Slight West Bound
Cut on Iron Articles.
The Central Traffic Association has de-
cided to reduce the west-bound rates OH
articles in the lower classes. to take effect
March 80. A meeting will be neld in Chi
cago on Tuesday to decide what articles will
secure the rates. The fourth and fifth
classes will be made f tn and sixth.
Iron is classified in this sched-
uIe, and it will mean re-
duction of 81 cents to St. Louis and 219
to Chicago. Intervening points will be
lowered on the Chicago basis. This is about
half of what the Mahoning and Shenango
Valleys asked for, and their demand for a
similar reduction on east-bound traffic was
refused by the trunk lines. 1t is only the
influence of navigation which has just
opened that wrings from the railroads the
the west-bound concessions.
A local contracting agent remarked that
the glass houses and iron mills are all at
work, but they are making few shipments.
The stock is being piled up, and either they
are without orders, or are waiting for the
freight question to be settled.
