The Pioneer Woman In Journalism.

Mrs Curnrlia Walter Richards has been brought into notice hero by the oc- currcncc recently of her seventy fifth birthday. She was the first woman cdi- tor in tho country. The Boston Tran script was started as q very small even ing paper toward 60 years ago by Out ton X Wentworth, a firm of Boston printers who had the state printing. They engaged Lvllde NJ. Walter, a cul- tivatpd gentleman. tn edit it. His health soon failed. and he h,t'ame too i'll to do much manual work. In this emergency his sister. Miss Curnolia Walter. acted aS his amaMurnSiS. When ho died, Miss Walter Was engaged tn tako his place. This was before thc time that woman rights were much talked of. Tho Tran script had a peculiar tea table sphere, and Miss Walter successfully fitted into it. Tho paper had not a widc general scope, though there was something like digest of thc moro important news of tho day i'll it. which Miss Walter pre- pared, and she also provided what was thought necessary of the local news 0f Boston with the aid of ono reporter, her sole assistant. She edited The Transcript ill this way for few years and con stantlv wrote for its columns, leaving the paper to marry a gentleman of pecun inrv means Hartford COurant

NO QUAY COUNTY.
Governor Hastings Nctoes the Bill and
 GiVoS His Reasons.


 II AEEISRU EG. Juno 2S.-CioVrrnor Hast ingS has apprnv,L the religious E;trh bill and vetoed the bill tn create Quay county. He has also vetoed the bill giving the auditor general the sole power of appoint. mrnt of mrrrantil" appraisers in Phila dulpha, together with l other bills.
 In support of his diSappruNal of the bill to create Quay county out of portions of Luzcrnc and SChuylkill counties the gov crnor says that after careful Considcra- tion of the measure he has rrlchcd tho conclusion that it is without merit, and that there seems tn be no nCCCsSity for it.. He believes it would be unorous and op- prcssive to the taxpayers of the district contained within the limits of tho prOpOs- cd ncw county. and that the taNpaying population nf the district k not sufficient to warrant the expense of crccting public buildings and paying tho cost of the ad- miniStratinn of county affairs. He adds that the act is applicable to a single locali- ty, and its cnnstitutionality Is moro than doubtful.
 Governor Hastings received tho accept ance of Judge Rice of WilkcSbarro and at oncc announced the appointment of that gentleman to be president judge of tho SUI periOr court.

In his recent prize article for the
mes-Democrat, DR.. Chas. III. Otken
declared that the excess of credit
prices over cash prices as charged by
furnishing merchants against the
farmers Of the South, has, in a period
of % years, exceeded in value all the
real estate, houses and fences in ten
States, to-wit: Alabama, Arkansas,
Florida, Georgia, Louisiana, Mississip-
pi, North Carolina, South Carolina,
Tennessee and Texas in 1880. For a
number of years since the war, DR..
Otken has kept the books of several
of the leading merchants of Summit,
and therefore he has very acute
practical knowledge of the prevailing
ratio between cash and credit prices
paid by farmers. Such a statement is
simply appalling, and speaks in thun-
der tones against a system that has
ruined hundreds of thousands of
farmers and thousands of merchants
as we'll.
