known as the omnibus appropria-
ton bill.
THE SUSOUEHANN4 ELECTRIC
COMPANY.
Considerable agitation has recently
been made by the newspapers of this
amending the charter of the Susque-
hanna Electric Power. Company of
this county, which has already been
incorporated under the general laws
of the State. We have so far refrain
ed from any expression on the matter
until the bill came up for considera
ton in the final shape, in which it is
desired to be passed.
No one can afford to make fight on
any measure which will benefit the in
terests of our county, and before any
decided effort is made to defeat the
bill, all points should be we'll eonsid-
cred by the Legislature.
The only objection offered is that
the powers under the charter are too
broad in regard to condemnation of
private property. AS far as we can
see, the authority under this act is no
greater than any other public corpora
ton now possesses.
The right of eminent domain has
been the law of our country for ages,
but no ones property can be taken
without jury of their fellow country
men fixing the value of the property.
and the money paid therefor. We
have no desire to urge any measures
ON our lawmakers which will deprive
the people of the county of their
rights, but when a corporation is en-
deavoring to establish any new enter
prise in the county which will bring
thousands of dollars among us and al
most any of us will be indirectly bene-
fitted, we say let them come so long as
they have proper restrictions which
will not allow them to interfere with
private rights of the individuals
THE HOUSE OF DELEGATES OF
1896.
We feel very sorry for our esteemed
friends the Republicans since they
came in power in this State. Many
of the men who were elected were
simply nominated for the purpose of
filling up the ticket without the
slightest idea that they would ever be
elected. But the tidal wave carried
them into power and terrible mix up
has to do is to go to Annapolis and
watch the antics of these would be re-
formers. Buffalo Bills Wild West
Show is tame in comparison with
their actions.
Speaker Mudd has tried his best to
keep his constituents in order and
with the assistance of the few Demo
Gratis who were elected has partially
succeeded. But how Disguised the
people of the State are. We all feel
the shame of having such scenes as
are daily enacted in one of our su-
preme legislative bodies but there is
nothing to be done until the session OF
1896 shall have gone down to history
and then we can express our disgust
in the most forceable way-by our
ballots.
Reformers have been taught a les
son which will not be forgotten by
the present generation.

ing that the dol!ar of account should

continued policy of the government
for eighty one years, without placing
the country upon silver basis, the
parity between gold and silver
during the entire period being main
tanned. Now we have 100000
people in the United States with
millions of wealth where in 1892 it
was measured by dollars, and now
the Republican platform says:
I'VE are, therefore, opposed to the
free coinage of silver, except by in-

which we pledge ourselves to pro-
mote, and until such agreement can
be obtained the existing gold
standard must be preserved"

LOCOMOTIVE PLANT FOR RUSSIA
Shipment Of an Entire Outfit Soon to BE

Made from Philadelphia.
An entire locomotive plant will short
~ be taken to st. Petersburg from Phil
adelphia on the British steamship Lal-
chan, which has been chartered for the
purpose. The plant is to be erected at
Mini Novgonod, the commercial me-
tropolis of the interior of the Russian
empire. Contracts for machinery for
the plant amounting to over 100000
were awarded to American manufac-
turers, the bulk of them coming to Phil
adelphia firms.
The plant is to be built in connection
with the Sarmova works, am extensive
establishment, engaged in manufactur-
ing cars, steamboats,, steam boilers, and
employing 5000 hands. The locomo-
tive plant will have capacity for build
Ing 200 engines year, and will employ
about 1000 hands. All of the firemen
and engineers will be Americans. The
buildings have been completed and are
now ready to receive the machinery.
The czar has given valuable encour-
agement to the enterprise. AS nearly
IS per cent. of the railways in the empire
are operated by the government, the
new company will get great share of
its work. The company will be known
as the Russian-American Manufacture
ing company. The consignment will
aggregate over 5000 tons.

LIVES ON PRuNEs AND FIGS.
Man in Oakland, Cal, Has a Novel Way
to Preserve Virtue.

to Preserve Virtue.
Some time ago the daughter of Henry
Krause, who lives in Oakland, Call,
grew hayward and left her home. The
Society for the Prevention of Cruelty
to Children became interested in the
case. 1t was learned that the
father, who claimed to be spiritualist,
had put his entire family on diet of
figs, prunes and nuts and allowed them
but one meal day. He said that his
daughter had done wrong because he
had not been sufficiently strict, and by
making the diet conform strictly to his
own ideas he hoped to prevent future
troubles and also atone for the past.
AS the girl had attained her majority
the society could not DO anything, and
US the other children were thriving on
the diet Of figs and prunes and were as
healthy and fat as anyone could wish,
nothing could be done for them.
Mr.. Krause, who is q widower, STOUT
ly defended his right to diet his family
US suited his fancy, and he admitted
that the bill of fare was always the
same, and that his children partook
OF but one meal each day. he has his
coffin in his house, but he said that was
his affair and no one else's business.

Is IT A TR1FLEa
That Common Trouble, Acid Dys-
pepsla or Sour Stomach.
Now Recognized as Cause OF Serious
Disease.

Acid dyspepsia, commonly called
heartburn or sour stomach, is form
of indigestion resulting from fermen-
tation of the food. The stomach be-
ing too weak to promptly digest it,
the food rem aims until fermentation
begins, filling the stomach with gas,
and bitter, sour, burning taste in
the mouth is of ten present. The con-
dition soon becomes chronic and be-
ing an every day occurrence is given
but little attention. Because dys-
pepsia is not Immediately fatal, many
people do nothing for the trouble.
Within a recent period a remedy
has been discovered prepascd solely
to cure dyspepsia and stomach
troubles. 1t is known as Stuart's
Dyspepsia Tablets and it is now be-
coming used and prescribed as
radical cure for every form Of
dyspepsia.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets have
been placed before the public and
are sold by druggists ev erywhere at
80 cents per package. 1t is prepared
by the Stuart Chemical Co., Marshall,
Mich, and while it promptly and
effectually restores a vigorous diges-
ton, at the same time is perfectly
harmless and will not injure the most
delicate st omach, but on the contrary
by giving perfect digestion strength
ems the stomach, improves the ap-
petite and makes life worth living.

MAKING DIAMONDS.
French Chemist Much Encouraged BY

French Chemist Much Encouraged by
HIS Investigations.
NJ. Moissan, continuing the expert
ments of NJ Kassel, is slowly and s,lre-
ly progressing in, his study of the dia-
monds that he obtained from the in
soluble residue after dissolving cast
steel in acid. Some of them were black
diamonds. These he has made trans
parent by heating them again to tenn
rerature near their crystallizing point
l572 degrees Fahrenheit). He has also
discovered that by Increasing the ra-
pidity of the cooling off process the
size of the diamonds obtained from
cast steel is increased. He has obtained
octahedral diamonds with rounded
edges, but always very small Never
theless they are real diamonds. They
scratch the ruby; they have density
of 31s; they give, on being burned in
an atmosphere of oxygen, quantity of
carbonic acid which corresponds to the
weight of carbon, and they leave no
ashes. M. Moissan has also produced
diamonds in the shape of cubes, drops
and confused masses of crystals. He
is certainly on the right track, and it
may not be many years before diamonds
will be SO common that only common
people" will wear them and the fash
tonable set taboo them because they
are so CHEAP. -

Spanish Soldiers Are Inactive and Are
Confined to the. Cities-Patriots Be-

per, ola Republican"

Gen. Francisco Carrillo, commando Of
the Cuban patriot forces in the prov
ince of Santa Clara, writes, under date
of July "a, to Senior Tomas Estrada
Palma as follows:
"The state of things is excellent. The
enemy has almost suspended military
operations. The Spanish soldiers, al
ways on the defensive, are confined to
the cities, and seldom move from them
or from the chain of forts they have
built along the railway lines. They
seem to be waiting for the arrival of the
announced reinforcements to open
their winter campaign; but I think
they will not do any more than they
have done heretofore, as the new men
will hardly replenish their now de-
cimated ranks.
"It is in Pinar del Rio that the Span
ish have accumulated the greatest part
of their troops, and even there, 1 have
just been informed by a messenger
from that region, our forces would re-

ent headquarters at the hills in Pinar
del Rio, and the enemy has not been able
to dislodge him.
1--WE have begun to publish here La
Republican, the fist patriot paper
printed in this vicinity since the ten
years. war. The publication is made
regularly, which shows that we do not
wander about so much as the enemy
processes to believe.
Gen. Gomez is making one more
powerful effort toward the triumph of
the revolution. He is now in the east
preparing for our second invasion of the
western provinces, which, by destroy
ing the enemy's plans, will impress
upon Spain the necessity of abandoning
Cuba as she abandoned San Domingo"

VACATION COLONY A SUCCESS.
Movement Inaueuratcd in Switzerland to
Aid the Children Is Growing.

movement Inauguratcd in Switzerland to
Aid the Children Is Growing.
1t is 20 years since the vacation-col-
ony movement for children was inaug-
urated in Zurich, Switzerland, and Con-
SUI Eugene German, in a report to the
state department, gives some facts and
figures in regard to the plan during that
time. 1t was evolved by Rev. w. Bion, a
clergyman of Zurich, who in 1876 sue
ceeded in obtaining subscriptions which
enabled him to send a number of chill
dren, divided into two colonies, to the
mountain canton of Appenzell for q
period of two weeks. Sixty-eight boys
and girls enjoyed this vacation the first
year, and since that time the number
benefited has steadily increased, last
year 2,19s having been sent to the COL
ony. The total number in 20 years was
21,729.
beginning in 1851, children who could
not leave the towns to the number of
2S,S44 were supplied with fresh bread
and milk twice a day in order to COM
pensate them in measure for the loss
of the vacation trip. The example Of
Switzerland, says Consul German, was
soon followed by other countries, espe-
cially Germany, where 1875 cities have
adopted the plan and established col
onies.
The means of support of these col
onies are furnished principally by vol
untary contributions and also by con-
tributions from municipal governments.
In Switzerland part of the profits Of
the federal alcohol monopoly is set aside
for this purpose, and in Zurich concerts,
fairs, etc., are held in the winter and the
proceeds given to the colonies.
