ASKILL--HOPPLE.

Our society people were surprised
when the announcement was made last
Monday evening that Mr.. j.. Willis
Gaskill and Mrs. Pearl Hopple were
married at the brides residence on
Fifth street, Rev. w. II. Allen tieing
the knot in a substantial and lasting
manner. The groom, who is the only
son of our highly esteemed citizen, Mr..
e. w. Gaskill, Treasurer and General
Manager of Keystone Powder Com
pany of this place, than whom there is
no more substantial or respected citi-
zen, is chip of the block; steady, re-
liable and universally respected by all
who know him. He fills position of
trust with the Keystone. The beide,
who is a daughter of our respected
West Creek neighbors, |. H. Legget
and wife, has for several years faith.
fully filled the position of Floor Lady
in the Keystone Shell Factory. She is
an energetic lady and when her grit
displayed has rendered her competent
to manage an industry like the Key
stone Shell Factory will make it doubly
sure that their home will be managed
in an economical manner. She de-
serves good husband and the groom
a good wife. Both are supplied and
their friends congratulate them. The
PRESS knowing them for so many
years, is confident this union will be a
happy one, we extend our best wishes.

The Lily and The Prince.

The forthcoming appearance of the
beautiful romantic drama "The Lily
and the Prince" at the Opera House on
April 10th, will be sure of a hearty re-
ception for it will prove one of the
most delightful entertainments of its
kind during the current season.
1t is based on theme which is both
interesting and highly original. The
drama is strong in motive, clean in
morals and masterpiece of stage
technique. From the delicate beauty
of the first act with it's pretty love
scene in the Florentine rose garden,
beside the rippling fountain, to the
sombre inquisition chamber with it's
accompaniment of super-emotion in
the third act, there is a wide diver
gence of dramatic treatment which af.
fords the audience pleasure in its de-
noument.
The production is staged with Law
ish disregard of expense, maintaining
a delicacy of treatment in coloring and
ensemble effects which distinguishes
the true artistic instinct.

EMPORIUM, PA. THURsD y, APRIL s. 1909
Birth day Surprise Party.

A large company of the friends OF
Mrs. Ardelia Francisco assembled al
the residence of Mrs. @. ID. Bliss, Sat.
urday evening, to congratulate her up
on her birthday anniversary. Mrs.
Francisco had no knowledge of the af.
fair until she met her many devoted
friends at her door, and was over
whelmed by their fervent congratula-
tions.
Lunch baskets had not been forgot
ton, good nature and kindly wishes
had been provided in abundance; all
remembrance of care, and all sense of
unhappiness were excluded, and pure
enjoyment ruled the hour.
1t was one of those occasions char
acterized by the flow of the deeper,
purer currents of life, that relieves the
heart from painful remembrance and
dark foreboding, and brightens the ra.
dance Of happy anticipation.
Many were the expressions of kind
ly loving sentiment, and many the fer
vent wishes that attested the high es-
TEEN in which Mrs. Francisco is held.
The evening was most happily pass
ed, without conventionality, in the
spontaneous flow of kindly sentiment,
and as the many guests bade their sis
ter and hostess goodnight, many were
the wishes for many happy returns of
the delightful occasion
Among those present We're Mr.. and
Mrs. James Hobson, Of Howard, and
Mrs. John Catlin, of Remove.

No Need of Concessions.


"Why not let the revised Tariff con-
tain rewards for concessionsN asks a
correspondent of the New York Even
ing Post" The answer is easy! The
United States asks no concessions from
any country. 1t asks only that Ameri-
can exports be treated fairly; that they
be required to pay no higher Tariff
rates than those on like goods from
other countries. The United States
does not complain of the Tariff rates
of any country to which American eX-
ports are sent, provided all countries
sending similar exports pay similar
rates. So there is no need Of rewards
for concessions, says the American
Economist.
Germany and France make no con-
cessions when they grant to American
exports their lowest Tariff rates, for
those rates are fully and adequately
Protective. They start with Protec,
tive minimum Just as our revised Tariff
starts. The difference between their
dual Tariff systems and that proposed
in the House bill is that their maximum
rates of duty are imposed for the double
purpose of coercing concessions from
other countries and of retaliating when
concessions are refused, while our max
imum rates are for retaliation only, to
be used not when other countries re-
fuse to grant concessions, but when
they refuse to grant our exports fair
and equal Tariff treatment. Retalia-
ton seems an ugly word, but there
will be no retaliation unless Tariff dis
elimination against our exports COM
pels it,

Pasturing on State Lands.

We are frequently asked by subscrib-
ers if they would be permitted to pas
ture their COWS on lands owned by the
Forestry Department of this State
We have until now not been enlighten-
ed on the subject State Commissioner
of Forestry Conklin has issued an order
which, if enforced, will limit the pas
turing of herds of cattle on the State
lands during the summer season.
Grazing on the State land, with the ex.
ception of two milk COWS per family, is
prohibited and numerous owners of
herds will have to see to it that their
COWS Craze on some other land than
that belonging to the State.

Wage Reduction

Wage cutting continues. Fifteen
thousand steel workers in the plants of
the Republic Iron & Steel Company
will find their pay envelopes lighter by
10 per cent. after April 1. Yet there
are people who think that the tariff is
too high. 1t must be that they think
that wages also are too high. In that
case, the lowering of the tariff is not
so hard to understand.
Tariff reduction is price reduction.
Price reduction is wage reduction.
Wage reduction is business reduc-

Denounces Local Option.

At the recent Central Pennsylvania
Methodist Conference, at Harrisburg, a
strong stand was taken for local option
and condemned the 1877 Representa-
tives who voted against the measure,
which resolution was passed after hot
fight. Rev. DR.. Silas c. Swallow,
former prohibition candidate for Presi-
dent, Governor, etc, made the fight
against the adoption of the resolution
and said the Fair local option bill wac
"a joke, a farce, fake, an abortion
that no honest, sincere opponent of
the liquor traffic could vote for and re-
tain his self-respect."
