eclipse will only be partial. however
A little over a third of the sun s

this is sufficient TO noticeably

The weekly papers Of the country
are honest. They are educators
because they tell the truth. There
is no gold pouring into their Golfers.
We doubt If it would materially
change their expression if there
were. The editors of these papers
live near to the people. They know
their readers and their readers know
them. They are in touch with the
community for which they write
and are therefore honest in their
utterances. Many men, to whom
"sharpness" is the one great attrib-
ute, despise the country press, be-
lieving it valueless-of no power or
force. In tins their own sharpness
o'erleaps Its saddle and falls on the
other side" The newspapers pub
lished in the towns and hamlets of
America are greater force for good
to-day than the blanket dailies of
the large cities. Why? Because
they have the confidence of their
readers, they print what they be-
ieve, and their readers believe what
they print. All honor to the coun-
try press.-Towanda { Pa Argus.

THE PENSION PERIL.

On the LIST Of January next there
will he on the pension roll fully L.
100000 names.
The appropriation for the payment
of pensions which Congress is expect
cd to make at the coming session is
$1s6,0OO,OO0.
These figures are startling.
They show that the pensioners are
In the proportion OF nearly one in
tr1etye to the vOters Of the whole
Union. And this for war that end
cd more than quarter Of q century
RGoi
They show that the cost OF the PEN
sion list sbsorbs more than 40 per
cent. of the nations revenues.
The pension list costs $4,000, GOO
more than the entire expenses of the
Government in the year before the
war. 1t has increased 100000, 400
since 1877, when the war had been
ended dozen years.
The number of pensioners on the
LIST of January will almost equal the
regular standing armies of France
and Germany combined, which con-
tain 1,O46,OOO men.
The cost of the list exceeds by $751;
100000 the annual cost of the great
standing army of overtaxed Germany
It exceeds by S56,m0,OO0 the cost of
the standing army of france.
Under the reckless ingenuity of
rapa cious claim agents and the parti-
san zeal OF corrupt Pension Com
missioner the list is increasing at the
rate Of $350,000 a month. If not
checked the cost for 1894 will reach
the enormous sum Of S20O,OOO,OO0
This carnival of wrong and robbery
must cease. The pension list mus
be purged Of it's frauds. As it stands
it is an impeachment OF the patriot
ism OF the men who saved the Union.
1t has been made roll Of dshonor
against the earnest protest of homer

it by the present Commissioner is
tainted by suspicion Of unwortbi-

wise the pension list 10 the interest

Btructed across the Stute-on paper

Prosaic English Merchant Mistaken as
Monterey for = Renowned Poet.
The fashionable Hotel Del Monte at
Monterey is stirred up over ludicrous
mistake by which prosaic English
merchant was honized as Robert Bu-
chanan, poet and dramatist. The Briton
arrived at the hotel three days ago with
two friends. He registered in a fine
literary hand, and, as he bore strong
resemblance to the author, several
ladies present declared he must be the
author of ''The Shadow of the Sword. :"
So several ladies desired him to write
his autograph in their albums with
some poetical sentiment. He received
all their fattery complacently, but
grinding out poetry for them kept him
up all night and the result was some
thing to shake confidence in their idol.
The next day he was the center of an
admiring group. His companions be-
came suspicious and asked the hotel
clerk why so much attention was paid
their friend They were amazed when
they learned the true reason, because
they declared their friend had never
heard Of Buchanan They. broke the
news gently to him, but his conceit re-
ceived bad shook. ALI three packed
and left before disclosures came The
next literary lion who goes to Monterey
viii have to show his publishers re-
ceipt or some other strong proof that

POINTS ON BRICKS.

Some Interesting Facts Concerning the
History of Plain Building Material.
In paper On "Brick Manufacture"
recently published by r. A. Calkins In
| the Transactions of the American So
| ciety Of Civil Engineers, the following
interesting historical facts were brought
| out:
The art of brick making is supposed
to have originated in ancient times with
the powerful races found In Egypt,
Chaldea and China, in the old world,
| and in Mexico and Peru in the new.
The ruins Of buildings and tombs left
| in these countries testify that they were
skillful builders. Rawhnson states
that the dimensions of bricks baked by
| the Chaldeans were 11A inches square
and IN inches thick, and those of later
date 18 inches square and s inches thick
All are familiar with the Egyptian
method of tempering clay with stick
and drying in the sun 5000 years ago.
| Compare the ancient method with the
practice at the present time in any
small town where bricks are made, or
even at the brickyards on the Hudson;
there pug mills will be found in opera
tion which are only a combination of
several sticks and mule; and green
bricks are still dried in the sun the
same as was practiced by the ancients,
showing little advance in 1900 years.
The first bricks manufactured and
burned in this country were at New
Haven, Conn, in the year 1850, and the
next city to claim early manufacture
is Philadelphia, where they were made
thirty-fve years later, in 1886. The
first brick machine of which we have
any record was made In Philadelphia In
1910. it was a soft clay machine oper-
ated by horse power. This machine
was destroyed in 1874 during a riot,
caused by the brickmakers fearing II
would take bread out of their mouths.
In 1S47 dry clay machine was made in
the latter city. That the molding OF
bricks by hand can be done rapidly was
clearly demonstrated at Cincinnati In
1882. The molding of 5000 bricks was
then considered a regular days work
In a contest at this day between two
expert molders, working from sunrise
to sunset, one nodded "a, 700 bricks and
the other 25,470. A similar numbe,
were nodded at contest in Philadel
| phia at a later date

Silver an Issue.

Gen. Paul Vandervort, of Nebraska,
addressed the people of Fort Collins,
Col, recently ON the silver question.
With reference to whether the silver
question is a local or national ques-
ton, the speaker stated that instead of
the miners Of the silver states being the
only ones who were defrauded, that the
farmers and wage earners had lost more
by demonstration than did the miners,
the wheat and cotton raiSers having
lost SO, 600, 900, 900 and the miners only
$3.50, 100000, while the 5000, 900 wage
workers have lost more than the wheat
and cotton raisers combined. The
monetary conference was discussed at
length, the speaker saying that the
United States can settle the question
without outside help. The speaker
said that the silver dollar Is not the
dishonest dollar as charged by the
monometalists, but that the dollar
which will pay one kind of debt and
not another, was the dishonest dol
lar He called attention to the national
debt, saying that after paying inter
est and part of the principal of the ma
tional debt, that it would take more
wealth, as measured by values, to pay
the national debt now than it would at
the close of the war. He then took up
the sub-treasury plan and asked the old
parties to advance some better plan
and it would be taken up by the pee
ple's party. The income tax, the trans
portation and other principles of the
party were taken up and briefly handled
in a mastery way.
