An Important Law.

| The following ID synopsis of the recent
act of the Legislature that is exciting SC
much interest among our citizens at pres
ent.
1t is entitled, "An act to provide for the
selection of a site and the erection of q
| State institution for the feeble minded, to
be called the Western Pennsylvania lnsti-
tuition for the Feeble Minded, and making
an appropriation therefore,"
| lst. The Governor shall appoint hve
commissioners to select site. This he
| has done.
I'd. This site is to be a tract of land con
| tanning not less than 500 nor moro than
| 1000 acres, so located as to be accessible by
railroad facilities to the counties of West
ern Pennsylvania.
Sd. The site selected shall be good
arabic land, well adapted to the preServa-
| ton of the health and the occupation and
| maintenance of the inmates, with adequate
supply of good water and natural facilities
| for drainage from the buildings, etc.
| 4th. The plan of said buildings shall be
| prepared by said Commissioners and ap-
proved by the State Board Of Public Char
| tiles.
5th. The total cost of said buildings and
| grounds shall not exceed the sum OF $oOO,
| UUU, fZJU,OUU oil winch - speclhCdHy aP
propriated for the purchase of the land and
the erection Of buildings, to be paid by
| the Commissioners from the State treas
| ury, etc.
9th. The buildings shall be in two
/ groups, one for the educational and one for
the asylum department, with school
houses, a gymnasium, drill hall, work
shops and hospital-these buildings to be
on scale to accommodate not less than
| 800 inmates or patients, and TO be erected
within three years from the passage OF the
act. (Approved June 3, 1893.
| 7th. There shall be received INTO the in
stitution feeble minded children under the
age of 90 years. But adults who may be
determined as feeble minded may be ad-
mitted under certain conditions.
Skilliul physicians, matrons, teachers,
| assistants and attendants are to be appoint
ed County Commissioners and overseers
Of the poor have certain duties to perform
when applications for admissions are made
| TO them.
The law is a very extensive and impor-
tant one And now the interesting ques-
| tion is, can we secure the location of that
| institution in this county, 1t is worthy OF
our best efforts to try. No finer locations
can be found than on the high
grounds surrounding Butler. The com
mittee appointed by our citizens will make
| known these locations to the Commission
ers when they visit this place, which may
be any day after the 18th of July.

A GREAT deal of sympathy is expressed
for Jacob: Kro mer, the young man of Scott
dale, who was arrested and charged with
burglary and murder along with Ryan,
Spaythe and Wyckof, but whose innocence
is now fully established by Spaythe's con
fession. 1t is not at all likely that Kroner
could have been convicted even if Spaythe
had not confessed, as it would have been
proven by numerous witnesses that he was
at home on the night the murder was com
mitted. 1t will be lesson, however, that
we hope the young man will profit by and
that is, not to cultivate the acquaintance
of strangers of wayward habits. man is
generally judged by the company he keeps,
and the truth of this is proven in this in
stapce, where an innocent man was arrest
ed charged with the highest crime known
to our courts on account Of being acquaint
ed and associating with the real culpritf
previous to its occurrence. AS 1T Ii we
are glad of Kromer's acquittal and hope
that he and his timable young wife may
live life free from like occurrences in the
uture.-Kittanning Press.

statistics says
"For one or two years there have been
serious financial troubles in all the coun-
tries of the globe except in Nort America
In the Argentine Republic and Australi.
there have been great failures and bank
ruptcy and In all the colonies Of Great
Britain there is stagnation in trade. Con-
sequently there has been very remarka-
BILE falling off in the export trade of Great
Britain to these and other countries This
decrease in the export trade OF Great Brit
ain was in 1892, $3.50, 900, 900 more than in
1890. This does not include the average
ar 1lial increase in her export trade, which
has been about $75, 900, 900. This unpre-
cedented decrease in exports, mostly
manufactured, was left at home in the
hands of the manufacturers.
They were in great financial distress, as
they had their obligations to meet and
they were compelled to eecure q market
for these products. There was but one
m ri ct left to them, which was the United
States, as we were the only prosperous
people on the globe. Stagnation in busi-
ness and financial troubles existed nearly
everywhere else. These goods have been
thrust upon the American market at small
margins, or none at all, in order to realize
upon them. Consequently, within the
past five months the imports have exceed.
ed the exports about SOC, 200, 900, and
these balances have had to be met, together
with other alliances Of interest, etc, by
gold and by our exports. This, it occurred
to me. is the common-sense explanation o.
the exports Of gold"

Gov. PArTIsos vetoed the Marshall bill
repeating the act to permit the consolida-
ton of pipe lines.
The governor also vetoed "an act to en-
able city, county, township, ward, school
and borough tax collectors to collect taxes,
for the payment of which they have be-
come personally liable without having col
lected the same but by expiration OF the
authority of their respective warrants, -and
to extend the time for the collection of the
same for period Of one year from the
passage of this act" He says:
saThe effect Of this bill is to enable sloth-
full and negligent tax collectors who have
failed to collect taxes within the period Of
their authority to extend the lawful time
for the collection of the same for the per
iod of one year from the passage Of this
act, and, as it would happen in some cases
several years beyond the time when their
authority expired under previous laws
The laws in operation when allout standing
tax duplicates were put in the hands ofthe
various tax collectors were liberal in the
time within which they authorized the col
lection ofthese taxes by summary process.
"Tax collectors accepted their trusts
with a full knowledge of their responsible
ity and they, and they alone, are at fault
If persons liable for taxes have escaped
their payment The law looks with disfa-
vor upon negligence and laches in public
officials and legislation intended to put a
premium on such negligence would be cal
culated to demoralize the public service.
Moreover, it wsuld impose new liabilities
on persons who, for years, have been ex-
empt from them. Such legislation is both
pernicious and offensive to proper sense
of iustice.D

Is the last House Of Representatives the
Democrats had about $50 majority. They
could easily have passed a bill for the re
peal OF the Sherman law. They did moi
do so; but the record shows that on Marcel
a. 1892, 1870 out Of 2ll Democratic Rep
resentatiyes voted for the Bland Free Sill
yer Coinage Bill; and that, on July 10, III
out Of 2l1 Democratic Representative
voted for the Stewart Free Silver Coinage
Bill. On July /, 30 out Of 40 Democrat.
Senators had pnt themselves on record a
favoring the Stewart bill. This effectually
disposes Of the silly pretense Of certain
Democratic organs that the Democratic
party is anxious to repeal the Sherman &C
because of its silver purchase features.
the Democracy has its way, the Country
will either have free silver coinage or !
will have wild cat currency, which is ever
worse. This fact, taken in conjunction
with the demand for the abolition of pro
lection contained in the Chicago platform
is ample to account for present conditions
