Sign the Bill.

The majority of the Republican
members of Congress voted with the
majority of the Democratic members
to take up and consider the question
of the free coinage Of silver on the
22nd of this present month, March.
The people want honest silver mon
ey and honest gold money, as they
had it previous to 1873, when the
gold bugs got in their work in Con
gress and legislated against silver.
They don't want gold inflated and
silver depressed by legislation as is
the case at the present time. Con-
gress will likely pass the free silver
coinage bill, which will simply give
to silver what always belonged to it, up
to 1873, namely, that silver shall have
equal rights in the mints of the Uni
ted States with gold, that's, the man
who has silver, shall have the same
right with the man who has gold, to go
into the United States mints and have
it coined into money, with the right
of government to buy what it needs
of either or both gold or silver. As
the law stands now, men who have
silver, are not allowed to have it coin.
ed into money in the mints, and gov.
ernment buys what it wants of silver
and pays for it at gold rates, thus
clearly discriminating against silver
and ruling it out as an equal with
gold as money. The shrinkage in
values of all kinds has taken place
since 1878, when free silver coinage
in the mints was stopped, and the
shrinkage will go on and on, down
down, no one knows where. By re
storing silver to the right of fire,
coinage in the mints, the shrinkage
of values that is bankrupting thu
country, will be to a certain exten
stopped, for by free coinage OF silvsl
the volume of honest, debt-payinG
money will be greatly increased. 1
President Harrison wants to save thu
country from a more severe and mer'
destructive shrinkage of values, h'
will sign the free coinage act whel
it has passed Congress. Sign tn
bill Mr.. President.

The Pennsylvania as a Disburser.

"The speech of President Roberts
at the annual meeting of the Penn
sylvania Railroad was interesting in
giving q novel and striking idea Of
the community of great corporation.
The public, except that portion of it
employed by the railroads. is apt to
regard them as tremendous concern
which simply moves freight and
carries passengers aud as a great abb
sorber of money. They do not know
or they forget, that the railroad com
pany pays back TO the community in
cash promptly the larger portion of
its earnings III wages, and it is,
besides, large purchaser OF manu-
features and patron of every de-
partment of trade. A purchasing
agent in this city recently bought
his company some sewing needles
aud an anchor on the same day 1t
would be difficult to mention any
article Of commerce in which rail
road company in its capacity as a
consumer does not desl
In his speech, Mr.. Roberts point
ed out the extent of the Pennsylvania
Railroads operations as a purchas-
ing and consuming portion of the
community. He showed that dur
ing the last decade that corporation
had absorbed the productions of Phil
adclphia alone to the extent of Sl5,-
100000, or at the rate Of $l,500,000
per year. The man or corporation
which adds $4,000 per day to the
business of his city, and does it for
ten years, ought to be cultivated.
This sum, 1t iE understood, includes
only the money spent in actual I'M
provemeats-in terminals, wharvss,
warehouses, shops in the city, &c,
which indirectly tend to make fur
ther increases in commerce and
trado in many directions.
The total expenditure of the Penn
sylvania Railroad are, of course,
much larger, and, after showing what
The road has done for tha city. Presi-
dent Roberts took up those figures.
In the single year of 1891 the Penn
sylvania Railroad expended in this
Commonwealth the enormous sum of
$50, ,000,0 600, or at the rate OF $1,000
600 per week. There ere not three
railroads In the United States whose
gross earnings are equal to this sum,
fact which, after all, gives but a
small idea Of the imm spsity of the
Pennsylvania disbursing capacity,
as We believe forty other millions
were spent on portions Of the line
outside the State The figures do
not need elaboration. They de-
monstrate at once how much and
how important a part Of the COM
munity;the Pennsylvania Railroad is,
and point out its intimate relations
to all matters pertaining to business
in most striking way.
The ultimate effects of these large,
constant, and timely expenditures
cannot be contemporaneously known
or pointed out. We ef this genera
ton can osly see that they have ad-
ded largely to the convenience of the
public, that they have made the city
more accessible to freight shipper,
that they have added to our manu-
features, and in hundred ways built
up and promoted the stability of the
city and Commonwealth. President
Roberts and his able lieutenants are
to be congratulated on having done
SO much toward the developsment of
commerce and the promotion of all
that tends to broader and more
beuefcent civilization"

A serious loss and much inconvenience
has been caused, both to shippers and to
railroad companies, by the unnecessary
detention of cars in loading and unloading
freight, Shippers are often unable to pro-
cure cars, tracks are encumbered, and the
prompt movenent of freight is impossible
under the practices that have prevailed. /.
The railroad companies have resolved to
correct this evil, and have issued the notice
printed below.
The system thus established has been in
force at many important points during the
past two years, with advantageous results
IN every instance The amount charged is
not sufficient to recompsnse the companies

TEE Philadelphia Press has been
abusing Quay and Cameron for not
being constantly in their seats in the
Senate. Both Senator's have been
unfortunate enough to be out of
health and that has kept them a
great deal out OF the Senate and
away from Washington, but it can
not be pointed out that any great
publ c interest has suffered by their
absence. The truth is when public
issues are brought before Congress
they are there to take the response
bility of acting on them. 1t is diff
ent with some Of their windy oppon-
ents who are constantly in their
seats with ears and eyes and mouth
open to catch whatever is ahoat for
their own aggrandizement. What n
blessing it would be for the country
generally, and what special bless
ing it would be for the constituents
of such crow VS. if they could be stricken
with illness So as to vacate their
seats.

Truth, Stranger Than Fiction.

SCRANTON, Pa, March THE Sc
quel to a remarkable story of wo-
man of this neighborhood who bad
four times married and as many times
divorced, turns out to be a remar-
riage to her first husband and the
lover of her girlhood days.
In the summer of 1875 Miss Kate
Lands, a rosy-cheoked Pennsylvania
girl, of German, origin, kept house
for Leaton D. Sperry. Albert Bah
cock was the farm hand, and in the
fall he and Miss Landis were married.
He rented farm the next spring,
but he did not get along SO well as
his wife thought he ought to, and in
1877 she left him and got divor ce.
TRIED TWO NEW HUSBANDS.
Seven months afterward Mrs. Bah
cock married James Starkweather, a
Carbon county farmer. Starkweather
was a widower with two children,
and he owned a small place. His
wife did not like the neighborhood
and he sold out and moved to Cam
eron county. In 1880 Mrs. Stark
weather got divorce from her hus,
band in another county.
In 1882 she moved TO Mexican
county and married a middls-aged
farmer, AFRO Fellows. He had been
married twice before, but he had
no children, and they lived together
until 1885, whep Mrs. Fellows went
to the western part of the State and
get divorce.
NO LUCK IN NO 4.
n19S7 she married II. L. Phelan,
farmer of Washington county. He
WAS q well-to-do widower, with large
family of girls, and Mrs. Phelan
lived with him until June, 1890, when
she went away, got a divorce, and
began to work again.
Meanwhile Babcock, her first hus-
band, stayed in Colley township, this
county, worked hard, and accuwu
lated considerable property. Last
fall his former wife rsturned to Colley
township. Babcock began to court
her again.
BACK TO HER OLD LOVE.
A week ago Thursday she gave uI
her place, and said she was going te
Washington county. Babcock wsni
away the same day and on Wednes
day last they returned together.

Fill the sky and the earth below,
Over the house-tops, over the street,
Over the heads Of the people you meet,
Dancing,
Flirting,
Skipping along;

Flying TO kiss fair lady's cheek,
Clinging TO lips in = frolicsome freak;
Beautiful snow from the heavens sb)ve.
Pure as an angie, gentle as love!
Oh! the snow, the beautiful snow!
How the fakes ga;hsr and laugh as they go
Whining about in their maddening fun,
1t plays in its glee with every one
Chasing,
Laughing,
Hurrying by,

And the playing dogs with a bark and u
bound,
Snap at the crystals that eddy around
The town is alive, and its heart in a glow
To welcome The coming of beautiful snow
How wildly the crowd goes swaying along,
HailIng each other with humor and song
How the gay sledgcs, like meteors, pass by,
Bright for moment, then lost te the eye!
Ringing,
Swinging,
Dashing they go,
Over the crust of the beautiful snow
Snow so pure when it falls from the sky,
AS 20 make one regret to see it lie
To be trampled and tracked by the thousands
of feet,
Till it blends with the filth In the horrible
street
Once was pure IS the snow, but fell
Fell like the snow hLkes, from heaven to

Fell to be trampled as filth in the street,
