Sciences at Philadelphia on Tuesday evening
last DR., Henry C. Chapman called the at
tenton of those present to specimens OF
Ophinridd from Mount Desert island, who
said they were the first fossil remains of
such organisms found in that locality.
They are class OF star-shaped echin-
oderms having disc-hke body with slender,
articulated arms which are not grooved be-
meath, and consequently are very fragile.
DR.. Chapman described the geological
structure of the islani. the indentation of
the granite axis by bavs AMI fords being

on the bedrock of the island but are never

CLEVELAND AND PENSIONS.

The Democratic press are circulating
the campaign lie that Cleveland signed
more pension bills than all tho other
presidents from Lincoln to Arthur. Here
are the figures from the official records:
Grant approved 575 and vetoed three;
Hayes approved 800 and vetoed none;
Arthur approved 1856 and vetoed three.
These three presidents approved total of
1914. and vetoed six. Cleveland approved
66s and vetoed 4i6. Thus it will be seen
that the records show that these three
presidents disapproved about one in 800
while Cleveland disapproved about one
out of three. During Cleveland's ad-
ministra,ion there were numerous private
pension bills passed by congress. Soon
after Harrison was seated, disability
bill was passed which removed in great
degree the necessity of SO many bills of
that class. but SO far Harrison has not
found single bill demanding q veto
plexion of the House toward the old
soldiers has relieved the president from
either signing or disappearing pension
bills. They were mostly vetoed by kilgore
and Bailey. From March 5, 1885 to June
-. isSs. Cleveland's administration issued
pension certificates to the number of
3s4 .ios. Mt an expense to the pension de-
partment of S2a24 for each certificate

The Mckinley tariff compelled Henry

The Mckinley tariff compelled Henry
r. Lister. one of the most influential and
enterprising wooden manufacturers of
Huddersfield. England to close his factories
and transfer his business to America. His
firm is now building in Jamestown, N. Y,
the first of a series Of factories which will
ultimately employ 1900 operatives and
produce various classes OF goods formerly
imported from England. While portion
of the plant will be brought from
Huddersfield, the operatives employed
will be Americans living in West
ern New York. Mr.. Lister compares in
detail the wages paid in England and in
the United States for the same classes of
work in his line of manufacture and finds
the difference is from so to 100 per cent. in
favor of the American operatives. At the
same time he declares that it does not cost
workingman any more to live in this
country than it does in England, if in
deed as much. 1t is the tariff alone that
enables the manufacturer, as Mr.. Lister
saws, to pay a warp-dresser $3.50 q week
and to compete with his English rival,
who pays s. for the same work. 1t is the
Mckinley act alone which has forced this
great English house out of the trade in
Huddersield and is now running up the
great factories in jamestown, where Amer
lean operatives will earn double Is much
as English workers.

Virginia thu Republicans viii carry Viz
ginia. The state was lost in 1883 by the
bitter quarrel between Malone and John
NJ. Langston, an able and influential
leader of the colored vote in the Peters
burg district. Malone and Langston are
today working in harmony to carry Vir-
ginia for Harrison. The situation in North
Carolina still remains so threatening that
the Democratic leaders feel ANXIOUS con-
corning the result If the Peoples party
should draw 1900 to 10000 votes from

Whether it would ever be delivered to him

"GoD BLESS OUR HOME"

The Democratic state ticket, through
the folly of its trainers at the recent Olym-
pia convention, leaves the party in very
forlorn condition. Nevertheless the party
marplots, who, in their efforts TO turn
down King county, have lit the fuse to a
shell that will wreck their structure to
kindlings, pretend to be cheerful and sat
jsfied with their work. The contrast
between their affected cheerfulness and
the ragged and dismantled condition of
their party machine recalls the inscription
over the lonely settlers cabin in Western
Kansas: Twenty miles from wood; ten
miles from watcr-God Bless Our Home"

Ono OF Whom tho People May BE Proud.
Everett Herald.

John B. Allen IL q senator of whom the peo-
pie OF this state may be proud. Although serv-
ing his first term in that close corporation, the
United States Senate, he hiss secured recognition
for the state by being placed on some Of the
most important committees OF the Senate, a po-
sition rarely secured by newcomers. Senator
Allen has been sealous in the service OF his con-
stituents, both in the Senase and before the de-
partments in Washington. To him is due tho
fact that Washington has received . larger
share Of appointments than any of the new
states and that no claim or business Of any citi.
zen of this state. large or small, but what has
received prompt and careful atten-
ton at his hands. None OF the
younger members OF the Senate have been heard
oftener or with more careful attention than has
Senator Allen, who has taken part In all the
prominent debates during his term. Mr.. Allen
deserves well of his constituents for what he
has already done, and should he be reelected
his position and experience will enable him to
accomplish much more for the good of the state
than could any new senator. The people of
Washington will do we'll to consider these facts
in nominating and electing members OF the
next legislature.
