The reduction of the amount of exemptions

and the grant to the counties of onefourth of
the proceeds, will all operate to bring in re-
ceipts Under the old law the counties got
nothing. ana the county officials were negligent
in enforcing it. The division of the proceeds
with the county, the seductive influence of fees
to county officials, and the compulsory features
of certain clauses in the law will bring in the
welcome dollars to the needy treasury of the
state.
Taxation of this character is the least op

Coxey In Pennsylvania.

New GALILEE, March 3l.-ChiIly was the
reception accorded Coxey's Commonweal by
the few inhabitants of the little town of New
Galilee, where the first camp in Pennsyl.
vania was pitched. The men found sleep
ing quarters in dismantled foundry, and
loafed and cooked in an adjoining lumber
yard. No excitement was created, and the
town Marshal said he could cope single
handed with the army.
Quite number of people from New Lis.
bon came over in the evening to view the
camp. Marshal Brownies orders, as usual,
contained something unusual. Il was or
dsred that all nicknames be dropped, both
by the men aud reporters, that each man
must draw soap from the cOmmissary and
use it, The under officers, who ride, have
all secured new mounts. and the army means
to present good appearance when Beaver
Falls is entered.
Fifteen new recruits came in on freight
trains and took badges The camp presented
lively appearance after supper and the
men sang songs, the Chicago quartette hay-
ing good audience. A considerable deal
of provisions from Salem were brought in
on freight trains. Mr.. Coxey arrived at :
O'Clock and immediately conferred with his
marshals. The usual meeting was called,
but as no audience appeared was abandoned.
The camp at Beaver Falls will be named
Valley Forge" Four well-knoBn crooks
from Pittsburg put in an appearance but
were sent out of town by the general. The
army now numbers about 800 men.

A COUPLE Of years since party known
in some sections as Populist and in 9TH
ers as Farmers Alliance, sprung up as
mushrooms in night, and succeeded in
capturing the government Of several
Western and Southern States. They an
Douneed that they intended 10 revolu-
tionize the moral and social condition OF
the country, denouncing both the old po-
litical organizations of the country as
corrupt, and like the Pharisees of old
thanked God that they were not as other
men. Once entrenched in power, these
new governors proceeded TO introduce the
millennium they had preached, and they
have prodcced, by their ridiculous as
sumption Of absolute power, more noise
and turmoil in their respective States,
than was ever before witnessed in the
other Ststes Of the Union. In Kansas
Governor Lewelling made himself a
laughing stock by his controversy with,
and attempt to oust, the loose tongued
Mrs. Ellen Lease from the Office to which
she had been elected in Colorado Gov
ernor Waite called out the military to as
sist him in driving from Office a couple
of men whom he wished 10 supersede,
and now in South Carolina Governor
Tillman has proclaimeda couple of coun-
ties Of the State in a condition of insur-
rection and has called out troops to sup
press the mUtIny.
This action Of Go7ernor Tillman is in
pursuance of an attempt to enforce the
right Of search in private houses for liq-
uor not procured through the agency of
the State authorities, under a law max
ing the Governor the sole purchaser and
retailer OF liquors, and already five lives
have been lost and the entire State
thrown into turmoil, and his excellency
and bis subordinstes defed, by reason of
his ill-adyised and arbitrary attempts TO
enforce the obnoxious right of search, by
an armed eonstabulary. The law was NJ
doubt enacted in the interests of temper
ance and morality, and if properly ad-
ministered might have a beneficial ef-
feet, but its enforcement in a spirit of
fAnAtieism, and with an unreasoning and
trueulent use Of armed power has led to
riot and murder and a defiance Of all
authority.
This pitiable display of rant and fus-
tian, OF assumed arbitrary power and of
headstrOng will by these three Populist
Governors is an object lesson that should
duly impress the country. 1t proves the
folly Of being led astray by popular
elsmor and an unreasoning desire for
change, and without due consideration
entrasting with power untried men Of
limited intelligence and unbridled lust
for arbitrary rule.

The Veto Axe Fell.

President Cleveland sent 10 the House on
Thursday his veto of the Bland bin to coin
the seigriorage. II was received with bit
ter reproaches on the Democratic side. The
expectation that the President would sng-
gest some way by which the socalled
seigniorsge could be coined with his ap-
proval proved to be well founded, but this
suggestion is hardly likely to be acted upon.
as it involves legislation authorizing an
issue Of bonds 10 maintain the gold reserve.
There is satisfaction in sound money
circles because Of the veto, which strikes a
deathblow at the Seigniorage bill, but there
is disappointment over the language Of the
message. whs, Is called a more ringing
message" was expected. The bankers were
disappointed to read in the Presidents mes
sage that the coinage OF the seigniorage
could be done safely and with advantage if
the Secretary ofthe Treasury had the power
to issue bonds at low rate ofinterest under
authority in substition OF that now existing,
and better suited to the protection of the

the death of two Cons;ables and two cit

who was wounded last night, died to-day
The situation is strained intensely and all
reports are to some extent biased by the

that the militia will aid the Governor to car

insists that he cannot command the militia
in such an unpopular move as the present
attempt to enforce search Of private dwell

not to transport any bodies of men unless

and destroyed her before the government
was ready to act.
