There should be no trouble about the
passage Of Representative Livingston's
bill to authorize and encourage the At
lanta exposition. No assistance, as was
the case with Chicago, is wanted by At
lanta, but merely the privilege Of making
her ambitious scheme as big reality as
possible, and at the same time have the
general government represented at the
fair The appropriation for the govern
ment exhibit would be small in COMPARE

anorded to the exposition, and through

A Republican Grievance.

The republican papers are showing a
good deal Of temper because Speaker
Crisp enforced the rules so strictly when
the question of passing the seigniorage
bill over the Presidents veto came up for
consideration the other day, and they are
disposed to call the speaker hard names
because he has compelled ex-Speaker
Reed to take his seat on several occasions
recently, when that bulky leader of the
minority had shown a disposition to run
over the speaker and dominate the House
after fashion of his own
II is doubtless true that there was
some sort of an agreement between Mr..
Bland, the leader of the silverites, and
the opponents of silver that the question
of passing the seigniorage bill over the
veto should be debated for two or three
days, but those who had the direction of
the matter failed to take advantage of
their opportunity They slept upon
their rights, as it were, and the roll call
began before any intimation was given
that there was a purpose to debate the
question. The speaker would not allow
the roll call to be stopped, and his action
was strictly in accordance with the rules.
1t is probable that if the debate had
been allowed much less number of votes
against the veto would have been cast.
but few votes one way or the other was
not matter of much consequence. The
veto was sustained, and the country is
satisfied. The speakers course prevented
a small deluge of silver talk, and for that
everybody ought to be thankful
1t was all right, the republican papers
thought, when Mr.. Reed. as spea ker,
counted a quorum and ran the House to
suit himself, but it is all wrong, from
their point of view, for Speak Crisp to
show hrmness and compel the ex-speaker
to keep strictly within the rules. 1t
hurts Mr. Reed aud his admirers to find
that he is not shown special cousidera-
tion, and that he cannot do as he pleases.
and il aggravates him to know that as
firm hand and as strong a man wields
the gavel as when he was speaker. Mr..
Reed must take his mediciue, even though
it makes him and his admirers vince.

We have made several attempts since
taking the editorial chair Of this paper
to try and get our citizens interested In
a Y. M. G. A. for Reynoldsville, but we
have never been able to do more than
get the people TO talk about the advan-
tages and privileges II would give the
young men OF our town, and there IL
dropped. A scheme was stirred up the
early part Of this year which looked
favorable for reading room at least,
but this only ended In talk We we're
asked by young man the other day
why we could not get a Y. M. G. A.
started In Reynoldsville? Who will
answerp We believe the real reason Is
lack Of interest on the part Of those who

ganization would be for their boys they
would become interested and give liber-
orally and willingly towards one In this

consequence to-day are getting Y. M.
G. A., and Reynoldsville needs one bad

boys to gather TO spend the evenings

will do good work which may save
you several times what you invest in IL,
save you from disgrace and save your
boy or girl from wasted life. A Y. M.

bility or we would not mention IT, II

the Peace, in West Reynoldsville.
James Moore and w. w. Wells were
selected IS appraiser, and they put the
claim Of damage at $1,000, which Mr..
Burke paid, also the costs connected
with the case. Before people start fires
in the woods they had better know q
little about the law concerning such
things, as 1t is very strict. Mr.. Burke

much carelessness about fires in the

A Minister Denounced.

The following resolutions were adopt

WHEREAS, The Rev. johnson Of the
Presbyterian church OF Reynoldsyille,
Pa, took occasion on Sunday morning,

cd labor sermon, and during his dis
course he either maliciously or igno-
rantly insulted both officers and mem

impugning their motives In combining

they had anarchtic tendencies, and that
working men were ignorant and II given
an increase In wages would spend IL for
liquor. Therefore, be IL
Resolved, That we, the members Of
Local Union No. 542, U. NJ. w. Of A.,
do enter our solemn protest against
such misrepresentation Of facts, and de-
nouce the author OF the above statements
as being unworthy the exalted position
he occupies, and that we withdraw both
confidence and support from him unless
he makes public apology for bis UNI
warranted attack upon our integrity
and honesty OF purpose. BE II further
ResolrSd, That while 1t may be con-
sidered presumption on our part TO offer
the Rev. gentleman advice, as pe are
ignorant, we would suggest that before
he makes another TRADE upon the
creators Of all wealth, that he studies
the economic question of the day and
learn from statistics compiled at Wash
ington, ID. c., that every man who
works contributes $1,000 per day to the
wealth Of this country, while the
average wages OF 1893 was only 81 90
per day, he will then realize that we
have good and sufficient reason for labor
organization. COMMITTEE.

Power of the Press.

The immense power OF a local news
paper possessing an attracting trade in
the town in which it is published or di-
verting It into other channels can hard
ly be estimated. Further, 1t is a matter
that is seldom considered as an import
ant factor In towns prosperity, for the
simple reason that business men gener-
ally do not give 1t thought. He who
will partially consider the assertion will
be convinced Of the truth OF IL. The
local paper is very naturally biased in
favor Of the place Of its publication and
II given fair living patronage by home
b siness men will guard we'll their in
terests just as the merchant guards the
interests OF his individual customer.
But II niggardly support is doled out
TO it, and it is compelled to solicit GUS
tom from neighboring cities, it cannot
in justice to those patrons exert itselfin
behalf Of its own town as it otherwise
would. Try system of liberality in
the matter Of advertising expenditure
and mark the result.-Ex.

his collar bone broken and right side

when he arrived at Mr.. Koehler's he
carelessly threw the lines down and got
out Of the buggy, and just as 'he was set
