OPPOSITION TO
FIXING SALARIES

Unexpected opposition to the two
salary bills came before the House
yesterday morning when the bill tC
fix the salary of the Insurance Com
missioner at So, 600 was on third read
ing. Mr.. Stroup, of Dauphin, moved
to postpone consideration of the bill.
Mr.. Fow rose to point of order that
the Governors call recommended
abolishing fees only in the offices OF
the Insurance Commissioner and Sec
retary of the Commonwealth and that
he said nothing about raising the sal
aries. Mr.. Fow later withdrew his
point and seconded Mr.. Stroup's mo-
ton.
| Mr.. Pusey, author of the bill replied
sarcastically. He said that the DEM
ocratic members are all ll,,obstructionists.
Messrs. Eaton, of Philadelphia Boil
ton, of Clearfield; Hitchcock, of Tiega
and McClain of Lancaster, all spoke
on the question.
Mr.. Crout, of Philadelphia, said
that the present incumbents will not
be affected by the present bills. "The
proper thing to do is to abolish fees
now," he said, land allow the regu-
lar session next year to fix the sala-
ries. -
Mr.. Greasy, of Columbia; Mr.. Hoh-
man, of Cambria, and Mr.. McClain,

cussion. When the viva voce vote was
taken the Speaker hesitated in his de-
cision; division was called for, re-
sulting in 1879 votes for postponement
and thirty-two against.
Mr.. Hoke, of Franklin, offered a
bill providing that no more than $3.50,
600 shall be spent each year by the
Board of Public Grounds and Build
ings in erecting or rebuilding county
bridges.
TREASURY REGULATION BILL :.
Mr.. Jackson, of Armstrong, intro
| duced the administration bill to regu-
late the States moneys. 1t was prepar-
ed by Attorney General Carson at the
instigation of the Governor. The
amount in any one depository shall
not exceed $500, 600; interest is fixed
at two per cent. using State funds
for ulterior purposes is made a misde-
meanor, punishable by fine of $500
and one years Imprisonment.
OTHER SALARY BILL POSITION
ED.
When the bill to fix the salary of the
Secretary of the Commonwealth came
up Mr.. Stroup moved to postpone for
the present, as he did on the other
salary bill. TIE viva voce vote was
apparently overwhelmingly in the
affirmative. Mr.. Meyer, of Lebanon,
insisted on the yeas and nays.
Mr.. Greasy, who advocated postpone
ment of the other salary bill until the
status of the actuary and his fees
should be laid upon each members S
desk by the State printer, spoke against
postponing~the Secretary of the Com
monwealth's BILL since everything
connected with that department is
clear to the House.
Mr.. Maust, of Cumberland, charged
Mr.. Greasy with gross Inconsistency
in his attitude to both bills. The vote
to postpone resulted: Ayes, IA noes,

In Behalf of Childhood.

I'm the Southern States there are
90, 900 children from to 16 years
of age, working in the cotton mills
alone. They have little holiday,
even at this season, and the work
ing day is twelve hours in most OF
the states. Many of these little
ones must work at night.
The National Child Labor Com
mittee, organized little over "A year
ago, has already succeeded in secur-
ing laws for the better protection OF
the toiling children in twelve of the
states. Our Southern States are be-
hind the others in this human legis-
lation. Some of them have no laws
at all, and no enforcement of the
laws they have.
In the meantime the very strength
and vigor (, { our pnre Anglo Saxon
stock is being sapped by this system
of working the little children. And
the children can make only the
mute appeal of their helplessness to
be delivered from this slavery.
4 lie NdtlOildl Soiilillltttt, I'll
which there are twelve prominen,
Southern men, has established a
Southern office in Atlanta with a
Southern man in charge. Funds
are needed for the legitimate ex-
penses of the Legislative campaigns
now in prospect. Every dollar
given by Southern people will be ex-
pended to protect the little children
of the South from the fearful conse.
fquences of too early toll.
In the name of Him who was
born little child, and who loved
the little children, this appeal is
made at this sacred season for this
sacred cause. In the happiness ol
your own children, think of the
little workers at the looms and
among the spindles.
Contributions may be sent to Ma
tional Child Labor Committee

Death of Mrs. Virginia A. .WOOdard

We are panied to chronicle the
death of Mrs. Virginia Ann Wood
ard which occurred at the residence
of her son. Prof. j. H. Woodard, in
Grenada, Wednesday afternoon at
1: 30 O'Clock. She was taken about
one week prior to her death with
pneumonia and was seriously i'll
from the first. All that medical
skill and good nursing could do
would not avail TO stay the ravages
of the dread disease that was prey
ing upon ber system, and the result
was that she surrendered to that en-
emy that will claim all humanity
for its victim.
Mrs. Woodland was born in Mon
roe county, Mississippi, September
25, 1S43.
She had been many years a mem
ber of the Methodist church, and
was woman of true nobility of
character-one that truly believed
as well as practiced, that woman 5
true mission was to comfort and
console and point the way that leads
from earth to heaven. She had cul-
tivated to a remarkable degree the
instincts of true motherhood and
did not restrict it's benign influence
to those of her own family alone,
but sought opportunities to do kind
ly deeds to those who came within
the circle of her observation.
She was left IA widow about fif-
teen years ago and since that time
has made her home with her only
son who survives her.
The funeral services were con-

tians consolation.-Grenada Sen

Following the recent bulletin Of
the Census Bureau on the extent of
ilIitcracy in the United States has
come a movement for federal aid for
education. The census bulletin
skaters any notion which may have
existed that the Americans are the
best Schoolcd nation. In ability tn
read AMI write the people of this
country are still far behind those of
Germany, Sweden, Norway, Den
mark and Switzerland. There is
no cause for encouragement, a. the
Per ccntage of illiteracy has been
steadily lessening. Comparison with
the census of 1890 also shows the
interesting fact that in ability to
read and write the women are over
taking the men. llliteracy Is found

Cheap Meat.

The cheapness with which a pound
Of pork can bc produced il made
very striking by comparison with
the cost of producing other meat.
For instance, when from 100 pounds
of feed cattle will produce 3 pounds
of meat and sheep will produce IL
pounds, pigs will produce 23 pounds
---nearly five pounds for the pigs to
two pounds for the cattle. 1t is
hardly necessary to say that when
the prices for cattle and hogs are all
similar, it is much more profitable
to produce pork than beef South
