THE sweep Of Republican victories
this spring appears to be irresistible.
That hide bound old Bourbon State Mis-
souri, is apparently preparing to Join the
procession. At the late elections the cit
les Of St Louis, St. Joseph, Kansas City,
Sedalia, Carthage, and host Of other
cities send Republican greetings. The
Republicans made clean sweeps in all
the above named cities and in many 9TH
er localities throughout the State. Mis-
souFi is rich in minefalsand the proposed
tariff destruction by the party in control
of the National Government has aroused
her people to their own interests. That
is the explanation Of the turn in the po-
litical tide Of that hitherto rock ribbed

From the Harrisburg Telegraph.
A recent number Of the Farmers Friead
the Grange organ Of the State, makes th,
following statement.
" The farmer is taxed on all his real estate
and all his personal property such as tools
stock, DC, &c. Why should not the per
sonal properly Of all other individuals like
wise be taxed Why isn't it fair
The author Of this statement should look
up his statistics little and he will find that
there is not a word Of truth anywhere in it.
The farmer does not pay one cent Of tax up
on his tools the live stock Of the farms of
the State is valued at from sos 600 600 TO
500, 600. and the official reports show
that but S45 900 Of this is taxed in any
form or shape. In addition 70 this exemp-
ton il is a well known fact that the average
farm Of this state has on it on the first day
of the year at least 81 500 worth of tools.

than $50, ,00o GOO.
The fact is that the farmers of our State.

we hear Changers Rhone and Brown reiter-

Those who are investigating the matter Of
taxation and assessment are pricking the
bubbles which flow 50 readily from the
mouth OF the Grange orator. and the taxpay-

farmers having just cause for complaint
they are in reality favored in many direc-

SESAT0R STEWART Of Nevada, has made
the unnecessary announcement that he
has become a Populist. The Senator
represents a silver State, and as a large
mine owner both his personal and pOlit-

make the Government furnish them 8

The bloody riots in the coke regions of

AS Big as Eggs.

ENPoRrA, Kan, April s.-A fall of the
largest hail stones ever witnessed in this
part Of the State occurred this afternoon
about oclock. The streets were white
with hail. and though there was not much
wind many window lights were broken, and
it is thought much damage to the fruit crop
was done. Many stones were as large as
hens eggs.
Considerable damage was done the crops
in Missouri also.
A telegram from San Antonio, Tex, says
in Gillespie county many cattle were killed
by the hailstones, some Of which were six
inches in circumference. The great chunks

HOMESTEAD, Pa, April 5-Three cheers
for the hospitable PopuIists of Pitisburg and
three groans for the interfering police were
given this morning by General Coxey' army
before starting on the days weary pilgri-h
age. Since their arrival in the Smoky City
the Commonwealers had been cooped up in
the baseball park and were practically pris-
oners- Their parades we're stopped, and the
public was prevented from looking at the
army in camp. The two-days rest freshened
up the men considerably, and they came
marching to this town with quickened steps
and contented stomachs.
The most surprising feature of to-dsy's
encampment was the large number of enlist
menls, 900 men crowding up to the impro-
vised de.k Of Recruiting Sergeant Ball and
were properly bsdged The recruits were in
the main Hungarians and slays, and dense
ly ignorant. Some of Coxey's supporters
fear that this element will make the army
disorderly body. As it now stands, the en-
tire force numbers about 500.

BROWNSVILLE, Pa, April s.-No Sabbath
rest was enjoyed to-day by General Coxey's
pilgrims They tramped along muddy
roads from Monongahela City to this place,
with only short halt along the way. The
severe discipline that followed the mutiny
for bread yesterday, when l S5 men were ig-
nobly discharged, made the army very sub
missive to-day There was little grumbling,
although the hungry horde of 2SO soldiers
did not stop for lunch until 3 O'Clock this
afternoon. Then bread and bologna, with
water, were distributed. From that time
until after O'Clock 10 night the men main
iained steady pace, but they were very
tired on their arrival here. The Town Coun-
ellis of Brownsville and Bridgeport, Just
adjoining have secured two balls in which
to quarter the men. They have about -
extra policemen on duty for the night.

PATENTS.
Notice to Inventors.

There was never time in the history
of our country when the demands for
inventions and improvements in the arts
and sciences generally was SO great as
now. The conveniences OF mankind in
the factory and workshop, the household,
on the farm, and in official life, require
continual accessions to the apperten-
ances and implements OF each in order to
save labor, time and expense. The
political change in the administrator Of
government does not effect the pi ogress
of the American inventor, who being on
the alert, and ready TO perceive the ex-
listing deficiencies, does not permit the
affair OF government to deter him from
quickly conceifing the remedy to over
come discrepancies. Too great care can
not he exercised in choosing n competent
and skilliul attorney TO prepare and
prosecute an application for patent.
Valuable interests have been lost and
destroyed in innumerable instances by
the employment ofineompetent council,
and especially is this ADVICE applicable
10 those who adopt the "No patent, no
pay" system. Inventors who entrust
their business to this class Of attorneys
do 80 at imment risk, as the breadth and
strength OF the patent is never consider
ed in view OF quick endeavor 10 get an
allowance and obtain the fee then due.
