The Mckinley Tariff Act Wholly Respon-
sibio-Repeal Of the Sugar Duty.
The deficiency Of the last two years
has often been attributed to lack Of
revenue under tho present tariff. There
is no ground for that statement. The de-
ficiency OF revenue as compared to ex-
penditures may be absolutely and wholly
attributed to tho tariff act Of 1890, COM
monty known as the Mckinley bill, and
to the increase Of expenditure incurred
by the same congress which passed that
act. For many years prior to the tariff
OF 1890 the sugar duties had yielded a
revenue to the government equal to 81
cents per head Of the population. Had
that almost wholly revenue tax contin-
ued to. the present date it would have
yielded revenue in che period which

When the ladies 20 alone and the gentle

New Curtain.

Holcombe Hall has during the past two
weeks been treated to an almost entirely
new drop-curtain, or, in other words,
there has been such metamoIphoses that
it will scarcely be recognized by those
who have for the past two and half
years been attendants at the hall. The
centre-piece painted by Clarence BENEFIT,
which is really masterpiece, was retain
ed and the frame surrounding it enlarged
by new frame, thus increasing the size
of the painting in wonderful degree.
Large folds of red plush were added to
either side of the curtain each side of the
centre, as If TO draw across IT at convent.
ence. The background represents the
wall of room with paper decoration,
dadoes at the bottom. A neat fringe has
been added TO the border, just over the
frame, and two tassels and cords added.
The large red border curtain has been
changed into blue paint and sets off the
other work. On the left side large
monogram "C-7th HAS been added,
which looks worry pretty and gives it the
only military touch necessary. The work
was done by d. G. Van Solver, under the
supervision of the Captain, and is GER
tainly creditable to them both.

Juries.


Much dissatisfaction exists among the
people generally about the character OF
the men who constitute the average jury
selected by the Constable to perform
duty which should, 10 order to diffuse
justice, be composed of men of honor and
pEobity. Aud yet the Constable is not
always TO blame for such state OF affairs.
A Justice Of the Peace gives venire to
the Constable, who proceeds to select men
for the position. He calls on prominent
business man and requests him to act,
but thousand and one excuses are offer
ed, and out of the largeness of his heart
the Constable excuses him and he goes TO
another with The same result and some
graluitous advice like this: "Why don't
you get some of those fellows who are
standing around the corners and doing
nothing p" and 1t generally ends by Sc
Letting the fellows around the corner.
The result of selecting such jurymen has
too often been exemplifed. Men who
will sit and listen to sure evidence, con.
clusively showing the guilt of prisoner.
and then deliberately hold out against o
verdict of guilty, shows either want oil
sanity or determined effort on his part
to defeat justice for some particular rea'
son which cannot always be explained fol
fear OF detection in crime perhaps greater
than the one on trial. This does not APP
ply nor is it intended to refer merely tc
the offences against the Excise Board. i
is so in almost every case where juriei
have been selected for years back.
There should be rule which would
provide for men of judgment, honesty
and impartiality being selected as jury
men, and they should be paid fair sun
for such service. Why should the Jus
tees, lawyers, constables, etc., have al
the money! Let ii be distributed arount
and it would go further, as there would
be fewer cases if those suing and requir
ing jury would have to put up sufii
ceut amount to cover all expense. Their
is much talk on the revision Of the Judg'
system, and 1t is needed, everybody knows
and it would be a good time to revise the
Jury system also. MAX.

Company c, Seventh Regiment, Of this
city, were agreeably surprised last Thurs
day evening by visit from Lieutenant
Colonel Charles Y Bamford, Major A. j.
Buck, Major A. F. Stoll and Lieutenant
w. Frank Skilman. The visit was the
result of an order from General Sewell,
promulgated by Colonel Skirm, and the
object TO see just in what condition the
companies could be found without any
previous announcement. Fortunately for
Company c, there was quite fair num-
Der of members present, considering that
drills are held every Thursday evening
and the men are expected to be present al
least on one of these evenings. SO far as
condition of arms, accoutrements and
armory were concerned, there could be
no possible fault found, as the janitor,
Private William H. Lawyer, keeps them
in No. condition oil che time, and he
received, as he should, the credit due him
for his faithfulness. The clothing of the
company is not what it ought to be or not
what it will be as soon as the number OF
members is increased. The manual OF
arms was up if not beyond the average oil
most companies and gave the visitors gen.
eral satisfaction. Addresses, In which
words OF commentator were mingled
with advice, were made by Lieutenant
Colonel Blmford, Major Stoll, of the First
Batallion-to which Company G is at
tached-and Major Buck, of the Second
Battalion. After social time with the
members the visitors were entertained at
Stockton's restaurant, on Church street.
Dr.. McGill, City Solicitor w. F. Hay
hurst and A. B. Stockton were among the
citizens who met the distinguished officers.
On Friday morning Lieutenant Colonel
Bamford and Major Buck, with Captain
Van Solver, paid visit to the old COM
mander of Company g, Captain Charles
A. Slack, at his residence in West Am
we'll township. Returning, they were the
guests of Master Mechanic Mcdowell and
Mr.. A. G. Gandey. In the afternoon a
visit was made to the Lambertville Spoke
Works, where every opportunity was of
forded to examine and witness the max
ing of spokes, hubs and wheels, which to
the visitors proved very interesting
sight. A pleasant feature OF the visit was
to find so many Company q boys at the
works, who proved that while they might
make good soldiers in the drill-room or in
the field and receive instruction in the art
of war, they were also useful 10 wheel
factory and could give the officers point
ers on how to make these very necessary
implements of everyday life.
At 4:31 the officers left the city en- route
for Beverly, where Company II would re-
ceive surprise.

there dropped out from behind one Of the
window frames a medal In good state OF
preservation, which proved to be one Of
the kind used 10 the first Harrison cam
paign. On one side is the old log cabin
and the date, March A. 184l. Around the
outer edge is the motto, Believers in the
plough to save this country" On the
reverse side is a. portrait of General w.
Ii. Harrison and the words, "The Peo-
ple's Choice" How the medal came there
is mystery. as The house has been erect
ed since 184l.

1t is with feelings of sorrow we

increased in violence until Wednesday
