WEDNESDAY, JAN. 7, 1S<»- The legislature of this State convenes to-day. The coal strike arbitration commission is in ssssion again at Philadelphia. Last week the work of connecting this country with Honolulu by telegraphic cable was completed. The whites of the South are evidently determined to drive all colored persons out of public, and they are likely to suc ceed. Marconi, the noted inventor of wireless telegraphy, is confident that ultimately 200 words per minute can be sent across the ocean at a cost of not more than 1 cent per woid. The Venezuela situation is likely to be complicated by the overthrow of the Cas tro government by the revolutionists. It is reported that the latter have been aided by the allies. Frank A. Munsey, of magazine fame, has purchased the New York Daily Newst and has converted it from an afternoon into a morning paper, the first issue ap pearing January 1, 1903. The duty of ten cents per pound on tea was removed on the first inst., and 70,- 000,000 pounds, which were waiting in bond, are in the markets. Whether the retail price of tea will be reduced remains to be seen. A n equal undivided half part of a farm of 50 acres, owned by the late Seymour S. Scutt, of Milo, was sold at public auc tion on Saturday last by the executor, in pursuance of an order of the Surrogate’s Court. It was purchased by John S. Mil ler for (650. Edward VII, King of England, was re cently proclaimed Emperor of India with preat pomp and circumstance. The ex pense of the ceremonies must have been enormous, and a goodly portion of it might better have been saved against another famine in India. The total amount of currency in circu lation in the United States on January 1, 1902, was $2,348,700,901. Circulation, Per capita , $29 43. Ihe total amount of gold coin and bullion in the U. S. Treas ury on that date was $617,196,083. The treasury of no other country in the world has as great an amount. The team drivers’ union of Rochester is on strike because they have not been granted a monopoly in the hauling of coal. They claim that non-union drivers have been permitted to carry coal, and that even farmers have been allowed to draw coal to their homes. Great Scott I what is this country coming to, when there can be no freedom outside of labor unions. An effort is making to organize the in* dependent, or non-union, workingmen of the country for purposes altogether righteous, which are stated as follows : To protect independent workmen in their independence. To sustain higher wages by skill ful, en ergetic co operation with our employers. To establish reasonable hours of labor according to the exigencies of the trades. To promote intelligent understanding of our work. To furnish favorable conditions for training apprentices in order that our boys may become successful workmen. To maintain sanitary conditions of em ployment by means of State laws and in spectors. To compel officers or the government to enforce the laws. To compel labor unions to observe the laws. To protect members against unjust treatment from employers by due process of law. To provide a labor bureau for its mem bers. It is to be hoped that the effort will succeed. It certainly ought to. Such an organization, conducted on the lines pro posed, would accomplish incalculable good. It would be an antidote to the excesses and oppressions of labor unions, which have been so manifest of late, in the way of boycotts, assaults, etc., as to stir good people profoundly. At the aame time it would interfere in no way 1 with such unions in their mission forj good. Non-union workingmen largely out number the total membership of all the unions. Yet, practically, ihey have no rights. They are shamefully abused in many ways, and no effort worthy of the name is made for their protection or tor the punishment of their assailants. With such an organization as that proposed, in dependents would be able to maintain their independence under the law, the constitution, and the Declaration of In dependence. Workmen would not be constrained to join unions against their will, and boycotts and other outrages would cease. It would also give a pause to the unconstitutional legislation of po litical demagogues, who have been wont to cater to the wishes of labor agitators regardless of the interests of the people | or of the rights of non-union working men. And newspap rs which have been cowardly, for financial reasons, would quickly find it to their interest to defend the right. In this age little can be accomplished without organization, as the people, un organized, although numerically strong, are too timid, indifferent, and selfish to attack evils, however great they may be. Let the independents organize and thereby become independent in fact. T h e “ Ohio Plan** P o t Vonntry Schools. local* L O C A L C O R R E S P O N D E N C E . Y a tesville. Vo ah. William B. St aw, in the Review of Re views for December, gives an instructive description of the “ Ohio Plan” of central izing country schools. We quote: In Ohio, the schools of thirty-three townships are now fully centralized, and there is a partial centralization in 150 others, under a general law, which per mits the people of any township at the annual town election to vote on the pro position to abandon the small district schools and transport the children at pub lic expense to a central school. This township centralization of schools began at Kingsville, Ashtabula county, in 1894 Five teachers are employed in the Kings ville school, and to it are brought all the children of the township (an area of twen ty five square miles,) witn the exception I temperature was 90 degrees, on May 22, of two d«etricts. Four wagons are requtr -1 July 14, and August 31. The lowest tem- W eatber ot rgoa. The Penu Yan office of the U. S. Weather Bureau has issued the following meteorological summary for the year 1902: Mean temperature, 48.0 degs., which was .9 of a degree warmer than the average. The total amount of rainfall and melted snow was 29.10 inches, which was 1.07 less than the normal fall. July was the warmest month, with 71 6 de grees; February was the coldest, with 22.0 degrees. July was the wettest month, wiih 9.04 inches ; February was the dry- est, wiih 0.78 of an inch. The highest —The donation for the Rev. John Lloyd Jones will be given at the commodious residence o f Mr. Lester Welch on Wednesday evening, January 14, 1903. In addition to the refreshments, some In teresting intellectual entertainment is expected. Italy. —Italy Tent, K.O. T. M., has chosen the fol lowing officers : Commander—Andrew Hunter. Lieutenant-Commander—Henry Barber. Record Keeper—Harry Wyckcff. Chaplain—Prank Benedict. Sergeant—Herbert Burke. Master et-Arms—Philip Marshall. First Master of Guards—Benjamin De Wick. Second Master o f Guards —Jvhn Cascaden. Sentinel—Frank Kennedy. ed, at a total cost of $97 a month, for the nine months of the school year. There is enuctual saving to the township under this plan, and, at the same time, a mark ed gain in attendance and ini school effi ciency. In Madison Township,Lake coun ty, the superintendent reports the cost of tuition per pupil—on the basis of total enrollment—as reduced from $16 to $10 - 48; and—on the basl* of daily attendance —from $26.66 to $16 07. The total ex pense, however, is about the same as un der the old plan, and this is explained by the fact that the school attendance has been increased from 517 to 300 pupils since consolidation wrs effected. The experience of two Ohio townships, in particular, has attracted the attention of school officers in other states, chiefly because both townships afford first class examples of school centralization in a purely rural environment. Gnstavus Town ship, Trumbull county, maintains a four- room school, with a principal and three assistants. Nine wagons are employed, which call at every farmhouse in the town ship where there are children. The driv ers are r< quired to have the chi.drcn on thetchoo. groutdi at 8:45 a. m., and to leave for home at 3*45 p. m. Tbe cost of this transportation averages $1 25 a day for each wagon, tbe longest route trav ersed being four and three-fourths milesin length. In the adjacent township of Greene the same policy of centralization was adopted, ard bonds were voted for a $6,000 eight room brick school bal ding, heated by steam and provided with every modern convenience—this is the center of twenty-five square miles of farming country, remote from village or railroad. This township, like its neighbor, reports signal gains in attendance under the new plan. T h e Young M a n ’ s Chances. perature was 4 degrees below zero, on February 6. Thirty thunder storms oc curred at or near this section. The pre vailing wind .was from Ihe northwest, seven out of the twelve months repotting the prevailing wind from this direction. With the exception of July, when the records of c’oudiuess were not complete, the number of clear days was 59 ; partly cloudy, 90; cloudy, 175, The highest observed barometer was 29 77 inches, on December 14 ; the lowest observed bar ometer was 28.20 inches, on February 2, making the yearly range in air pressure, 1.57 inches.

Tenant as his first and second deputies, positions which they oc cupied under the retiring secretary, John T. McDonough. The reappointment of Mr. Mongin was generally expected, be cause of the remarkably efficient manner in which he has discharged the duties of the office. The civilizing influence of America upon Cuba L being shown in many ways, but in none more strikingly than in the railway development of the ‘ ‘ Pearl of the Antilles.” On December 8th the first train left Santiago for Havana over the new railroad connecting those two points, with 150 passengers and an enthusiastic crowd at tbe station to cheer them on their way. In fact all along the line the train was greeted with evidences of en thusiastic appreciation of what such an innovation meant to the island and its people.— E x . The Unilei States Treasury started the new year with more gold in its vaults than this or any other government has ever held at any time before. There was in the Treasury building at Washington and in the various sub-treasuries through out the country $617,196,083 in gold. These holdings are four times as much as the present holdings of the Bank of Eng land, one and a half times as much as is held by the B ink of France, four times as much as the Imperial German bank holds, and nearly twice as much as the imperial bank of Rnssia possesses. lo his annual report to the adjutant- general Major-General Roe, after calling attention to the expulsion, in the past year, of two enlisted men from labor unions, on account of their membership in the National Guard, and to previously reported cases of citizen soldiers who were discharged by their employers because their duty as soldiers called them tempor arily from their employment, makes this recommendation: “ The welfare of the state and country demands that protection be afforded to the National Guard against actions so decisively against the best in terests of the law-abiding and patriotic citizen, and it is recommended that the law not affording such protection, proper legislative action be taken to protect men who give their services voluntarily for the welfare of the state.” By order of President Roosevelt, the Postmaster-General has closed the post- office at Indianola, Miss. From the statement given to the public by the President’s private secretary, it appears that Mrs. Minnie M. Cox, a colored wo man, is the postmistress of Indianola; that she was first appointed by President Harrison, and subsequently re-appointed by President’s McKinley and Roosevelt. For about nine years she has discharged the duties of the office in a very accepta ble manner. No complaints have been made as to her administration, and it is conceded that she is a woman of remark able ability and of high character. But be cause of her color she has been so threat ened and terrorized that she was con strained to tender her resignation, to take effect on the first inst. It is said that she was told that she would be lynched unless she resigned, and the mayor of the city and the sheriff of the county declared their inability to protect her. On Januaiy 1st, her resignation not hav ing been accepted, Mrs. Cox closed tbe office, and the mail having accumulated, her bondsmen telegraphed to the Presi dent for relief, as they did not wish to be held responsible under the circumstan ces. The situation was considered by Presi dent Roosevelt and his Cabinet, with the result above stated. It was decided not to accept the resignation of Mrs. Cox, and to abandon the office until such time as the people of Indianola shall come to such a realizing sense of their shame and cowardice as to afford protec tion to the postmistress. In the mean time the mail for Indianola will be sent to Greenville, a neighboring post-of fice, where the people of the former place can get it as best they may. In answer to a letter to the President from prominent business men of Indian- o’a that prompt action in the appoint ment of a new postmaster was necessary to protect the material Interests of the city, the President replied through his private secretary in part as follows : Under old business methods a ycung man who sought employment in some great house must appeal to his friends for “ bonds.” To-day, says the Chicago Interior , he must appeal to a guaranty company, and the first question asked him is, “ Do you gam b le?” The second is, “ Do you drink ? ” If he cannot answer “ No ” to each, and back up his reply by the evidence of his friends, he may pound stone, but he cannot handle cash. The Sunday school has now a powerful assistant In the packing-house and tbe bank. The area in which a young man may sow wild oats is being narrowed every year, and the young man who “ must have his fling ” may have it out on the levee, but riot on Wall street. Fathers and mothers do not send detec tives to the race track to see who is bet- ing on horses there, but the bond com panies do, and many a young fellow who sneered at his mother’s tearful entreaty has listened very humbly to the words of the president of the company which holds his future in his hands. The State Civil Service Commission an nounces the next general examination to be held on January 24, 1903. Exam inations are to be held for assistant civil engineer, leveler, todman, chainman, court attendant, gardener in State Insti tutions, band instructor at the Elmira Reformatory, messenger in departments and offices, structural engineer in the State architect’s office, examiner of State hospital accounts, and orderly In the Brie County Hospital. Persons desiring to enter these exam inations must file applications in the office of tbe State Civil Service Commis sion in Albany before noon on January 19th. Application blanks and information re garding Hilaries and requirements of ex aminations may be obtained by address ing the Chief Examiner of the Commis sion at Albany. D resden.

The number of lynchings in 1932 shows a decrease from previous years, according to the statistics gathered by tde Chicago Tribune. That paper records 96, as com pared with 136 in 1901. The number Is the smallest since tne Tribune began to collect statistics on this subject in 1885. The greatest number of lynchings in any one year was in 1892, when there were 235. The lynchings of 1902 are distrib uted among 22 States, thirteen of which are in the south. Mississippi and Louis iana each had eleven. The fact that these States have taken the lead in de priving negroes of political rights is of some interest in this connection. Ken tucky had 9 lynchings; Georgia, 8; and Texas, 7. u f the whoie number o f lynch- ings, 87 occurred in the South and 9 in the North; 86 cf the victims were ne groes, 9 were whites, and 1 was an Indian. One negro woman was lynched. The al leged ciimes were as follows: Murder, 37; criminal assault, 19; attempted crirm. iual assault, 11; attempted murder, 4; unknown offenses, 6 ; assaulting whites, 3 ; accessory to murder, 3 ; disreputable character, 2; race prejudice, 2; horse stealing, alleged conjuring, suspicion of murder, larceny, accessory to larceny, sheltering a murderer, mazing threats, planning elopement, mistaken identity, 1 each. It will be observed that the “ one crime ” which does duty as an excuse for lynching in the South accounts for the usually small proportion of mob execu tions. At a recent meeting of the Niagara county farmers’ club, the editor , of the Rural New Yorker advised apple growers to pack their fruit in boxes holding a bushel, instead of shipping it in barrels. He displayed two apples which he had purchased in New York jast before de parting and for which he paid 10 cents apiece. He said that in the Equitable building in New York there were employ ed about 12,000 persons of a class who could not or would not purchase apples by the barrel, as they could not keep them fresh and palatable. He advised the farmers to place their fruit in small pack ages arid pack only the best; to have a store in New York city conducted by some one who understood fruits and sell only Niagara county fruits in small pack ages. He said that in his opinion such a scheme would prove very profitable. Yon will find we know how to conduct a sale when you see the values we offer you this week. Lown & Co. P E N N Y A N M A R K E T S , PRICKS - .08 Eighteen dollars a ton for coal was the price charged In Boston Saturday. This condition does not agree with the state ment made by the coal operators at the close c f the strike that the price of coal this winter would be reasonable through- la the view of the President the relief Iout lhe United States. Are the coal operators responsible for of the business interests which are being injured solely by the action of the lawless e ement of the town, is wholly secondary to tbe preservation of the fundamental principle that this government will not connive at, or tolerate, wrong or outrage of such flagrant character. The above answer has the right ring. President Roosevelt cannot be too highly commended for his action in the matter. It ie high time a pause were give to law- lesness inspired by race prejudice. T h e Standard O il Company. Last week Dr. Lorenz, the famous sur geon of Vienna,who came to this country several weeks ago to perform an opera tion on a child of Mr. Armour, of Chi cago, for congenital dislocation of the hip joint, sailed from New York for his home. During hie stay here he per formed many operations of the kind, without charge, on the children of the poor, and was so gracious generally as to win the affections and gratitude of our people in a remarkable degree. He went away also entertaining a high re gard for the American people, a true ap preciation of the greatness of our coun try generally, and particularly impressed as to the generosity of our great cities In the maintenance of well-appointed hos pitals. Moreover he promised to come to see us again. Dr. Lorenz ie evidently a great big man in more ways than one. According to reports only a email per centage of the anthracite coal minere have worked during the holldaye, and in coneequence the output of coal has been very email. It was expected that the miners would not want to work on Christ mas, and, perhaps, not 00 New Years, but in taking about two weeks off they have evinced reprehensible indifference concerning the sufferings of the people and also that they are not in such desti tute circumstances es their union leaders have claimed. The press has generally criticized their conduct in tbe respect noted, which has constrained Mitchell, who well knows the value of public sent iment, to say that the perceutage of mi nere who have not worked during the holi days is much smaller than has been rep resented ; that the situation has been exaggerated for effect. He said the aame thing about the reports of aesaults, etc., upon non-union men during the strike, bat the testimony before the aroitration commission, which has not yet been com pleted, shows that the worst was not told. The scarcity of coal has increased the demand for kerosene oil. Taking advan tage of this the Standard Oil Company, wh ch has crushed out nearly all compe tition, to the financial ruination of many, has advanced the price of oil a cent or two a gallon. It is not the only combine that has taken advantage of the necessi ties of the people this winter. The soft coal operators have been much more greedy in their extortions, having ad vanced prices about 100 per cent.; and there are others who are fattening finan cially regardless of the sufferings their extortions inflict upon the poor. But public execrations are chiefly directed to ward the Standard Oil Company because of its infamous record, its enormous wealth, and for the additional reason that its chief director, Mr. Rockefeller, poses as a philanthropist, although he takes good care to figure very lightly on tax rolls. Tbe tariff is not the mother of the Stan dard Oil Company, as it has no protec tion. But it has had immunity from de served punishment for violations of law, which Is largely due, no doubt, to the subsidization of the people, through princely gifts to churches, schools, etc. Such gifts should be shunned as “ blood money,” the oil magnates should be compelled to pay just taxes, and the oc topus should be vigorously prosecuted for its infractions of law. such gross extortion ? Some of the inde pendent operators may De, but certainly, thus far, the great hard coal corporations have not been extortionists, which cannot be said in truth of the soft ccal operators. Should the people continue to charge tbe companies with gross extortion, they may eventually conclude that they might as well have the game as the name. Even as regards independent operators, so far as we have observed, it is not charged that they have advanced prices more than $1 or $2 per ton over former rates, yet coal pmchased of them is sold by retailers for $10 to $15 per ton. So it follows that somebody must be robbing the people besides tbe operators. w h o l b s a l b Butter, per ft Eggs, per doz.

Mr. Editor . — In pernsing your usually very carefully edited paper o f last week's Issue, 1 was very much surprised and somewhat annoyed to discover that one of your correspondents, pur porting to write from Friend, had made a very free use o f my name in connection with certain scurrilous articles that have recently appeared under the head ot Potter. If, as seems evident, he (or she) be one ot tbe aggrieved persons he has my profound sympathy, as there can be no doubt that he has just cause for resentment, which, possibly, may, in a measure, excuse his rash assertion in regard to the authoisbip. Now, Mr. Editor, you know that you 'can cor roborate the statement that in my correspond ence, always .desultory, you have received no communication from me ’during an interval ot more than a year, under ray “ band,” over my s guature, or over my “ pseudonym” whatever, euher directly or Indirectly Neither have! re ceived any communication from you in that time, always excepting, of course, your annual purely formal presentation ot a bill for back sub scription. If I make any misstatement, please correct me. It is clear that your correspondent is not a res ident of Friend, else be wonid not have been be trayed into the error that I burn coal. My bank account is too limited 10 permit o f my negotiat ing for coal with dealers in Potter or elsewhere. It is equally clear that your correspondent is a novice in newspaper work, and, with your per mission, I will give him the benefit of my ex perience and ot instruction received directly from yourself in younger days. If he would win laurels on the reportorial staff of the E xpress he must correct bis faulty composition; he must avoid the use o f ob9)lete words such as “ pseu iol- ogy;” he must be careful how be brings charges against people, supported by nothing stronger than his surmises; for failure in this has led to serious difficulties, both for the writer and the pub'isher. He must also be governed by the rule, “ that important events in the lives of unimport ant 1 eople and unimportant events in Ihe lives of important peoplt are legitimate and often valuable news, but unimportant news in the lives of people o f little importance are not entitled to be considered of general interest.” In ihis particular the unknown *’ pseudologist” has ft Hen into error, and therein your correspon dent has inflicted his deepest wound in charging me with the resporsibility. I would have known better. In conclusion, Mr. Editor, I assure you that I feel no animosity to your latest acquisi tion, but now that he is in possession o f the facts tailure to publicly apologize for his unwarranted attack will be deemed sufficient ground to treat him as a “ pseudologlst” in earnest, which, as Webster defines it, is m the last analysis, only a polite way o f questioning a man's veracity.

How unhealthy the dyspeptic must be! He feels as if he were all stomach, and one thing that makes him feel so is that pain at the pit of the stomach— sometimes an “ all-gone feeling” ; sometimes a “ burning sensation.” “ I suffered from pains in my stomach and could not eat. An old gentleman told me to take Hood’s Sarsaparilla, which I did, and after the use of four bottles I gained my appetite, and I was soon com pletely cured, so that now I feel like a new man.
