All dispatches on the Associated
Press wires are now copied on writing
machines, and there is general feel
ing among telegraph managers that
the day is not far distant when every
description of telegram will be
printed ON the machine. The move
ment in this direction is vigorous
and persistent, and it will not he
long before typewriting machines
will be considered as much part of
the equipment Of every commercial
office as the telegraph instruments.
With view of properly qualify
ing our Geographic students for this
work, we make no extra charge to
them for instruction in typewriting
and the use of the machine. In
future all pupils in Our Tetegraphic
Department ioiH be taught to receiUe
on the Cdiigrdph.
In this, as in every other requisite,
it is our intention to keep up with
the demands of modern business
methods. -HedlfS College Journal.

The question Of Tie annexation of
Hawaii is one that should not be
difficult of solution. for if the people
had an opportunity to express their
will there would be few who would
be found opposing the scheme.
Hawaii asks to be taken under the
fostering care of this government,
and it would be an outrage on the
part Of the national authorities to
deny the request; and one of the
strongest reasons why the islands
should be annexed is owing to the
arrogant attitude of Great Britain
who has long been waiting for an
opportunity to satiate her greed by
gobbling up the very territory now
appealing to the United States for
the privilege of flying the American
flag.

ALL MUST PAY FARE.
Wholesale Arrest Of Legislators
Who Ride ON Passes.


The details of a scheme were con-
cluded at Johnstown, Monday even
ing, which promises to result in
startling surprises to some of the
members of the Pennsylvania Legis-
lature. The plan is Wholesale ar
rest of the members of both Houses
who ride on free passes. Several
prominent reformers are at the head
of the scheme, one of whom is a
resident of Philadelphia, while
another lives in Pittsburg. The
plan of procedure is as follows /:
Three or four trusted men will be
sent to Harrisburg, where they will
spend several weeks in getting
acquainted with all the members of
both Houses.
They will all be under the charge
of one person, to whom they will
make regular daily reports. When
ever it is learned that any member
of the Legislature is going away on
the train one man will be detailed
to follow him, and will take note
of the fact whether or not he offers
pass, and also the name of the
conductor and the number of the
train on which he is passenger.
At the close of each week all those
OH duty will leave Harrisburg, and
will follow the members as far az
necessary to complete their observa-
tions. Two men have been on duty
ever since the Legislature convened
They have made trips over all the
roads from one end of the State tc
the other.
As soon as the facts regarding q
member are fully obtained, no more
attention will be paid to him. Thus
the list will be gone over until all
have been scanned. Scarcely one
member in twenty has been found
who does not ride on a pass. The
best legal talent has been secured
from whom an opinion has been
given that those who take passes
will be indictable under Section Is
of Article 2 of the Constitution, On
the charge of violating their oath OF
office. The oath is violated if they
take passes, which the Constitution
strictly forbids, while in their oath
they swear to defend and obey the
Constitution.

The law has been strained in
Sullivan county to deprive the pay
ment of the bill for printing the
election tickets last November, al
though it was not claimed that the
bill was not proper and honest, or
that it was not worth the amount
charged. Mr.. Cheney, one of the
County Commissioners, is the pub
Usher and proprietor of the LaPorte
REPUBLICAN, the only Office in that
county having the necessary facili-
ties for executing the work, or at
least the only one who would un-
dertake the job. When the audi
tors met objection was made by a
rival publisher of a neighboring
town, that under an old act of as.
sembly which prohibits county of
fetal from taking or being concern
ed in any contract to furnish goods
or materials for the county. OF
course, under the circumstances the
auditors were compelled to reject
the bill and Mr.. Cheney is out S97.
The county officials should devise
some method of reimbursing Mr..
Cheney, a proceeding that is de-
manded by every sense of justice
and right where no fraud or cor
ruption is charged.-Bentos Argass.
Thanks Bro. Smith. The Argus
is the only paper in our adjoining
counties who dared to speak its
mind regarding this question.

AS result of the recent cold
spell the country is hearing nothing
about failure of the ice crop this
year. A year ago at this time there
appeared to be little hope of fail
supply and the temperature during
the rest of the winter of '91-92 did
not better the situation. The con.
sequences was that prices were high
during the summer and much incon
venience followed. There need be
no such fears for the coming sum-
mer. Better ice was never made
than the rivers ponds and lakes have
yielded during the past four weeks

For half a century now, more or
less, the country has been agitated
and worried with disputes about pro-
lection and free trade. We have
had protection, and we see what it
has produced and we have been
continually assured that free trade
would yield benefits superior, more
substantial, and more enduring.
Hitherto our experience has been
limited to one side of the controver-
sy, and now we are to have the other.
We trust that we may have it prompt.
ly and completely, and without quail
ilication or evasion; and then the
country will be able to judge, not
from arguments, not logic or
mere assertion that IT, policy is
better than the other, but by actual
knowledge and positive, substantial
results. If the Democratic Repre-
sentatives and the Democratic Pres
ident are faithful to the platform of
the party under which they have
recently been triumphantly elected,
we shall have this knowledge without
compromise and without delusion !;
and we trust that we may have it as
soon as possible. One ounce of fact
is sometimes better than a whole ton
of dicputotion
