HCIIUITT ( Irooii Gnrdon The ( loinoorntB are busily branding as n lie tlio Btntotuout that they nro prepar ing to ovorloolc tlio name of Populist John Powers when It comes to marking their ballots this full. They may deny it nil right , but from past experience with domoorntio denials there are many who will wait for the evidence of the returns before they nro prepared to bo ilevo thnt the denials nro sincere. Chancellor Andrews of the university is certainly an exception to tlio genera ran of men. Several mouths ago tlr regents ottered him an ndvauco of $1,00' ' in salary to begin with the commence inont of the school year. Recently th chancellor notified the board that h would not accept of the prolYorod ad vance , alleging thnt the finances of th school would not admit of an iucroasi in snlnrics. The regents hnvo boo forced to economize in all other depart incuts of the university nud Mr. Andrews drows does not propose to bo nu exco ] : tion to the gouornl rule. The chnuoollo is right but there are few men wh would take the position ho has when an advance of salary is ottered. York county farmers nro worrying not because they have not good crops , nor yet because there is no market for their products at good prices but be cause they fear that they will not bo nblo to secure the help necessary to har- rest their corn. They arc ottering noth ing less than throe cents a bushel and board for corn buskers , but oven at this price they have not been nblo to secure the help needed nud if the help cannot be secured FOUIO of the crop will bo loft in the field at n dead loss to the farmers. If they will work for a return of Cleve land times they will hnvo no trouble in securing help nt n loss price thnn three cents n bushel , but it cannot be guaran teed that there would bo any money in the crop as the price for the cereal would be as certain to tumble as the price for harvesters. That intensely interesting story , the delinquent tax list , is published this week , or the first chapters of it. It will continue to appear during the next three weeks. The exhibit of delinquents shows little increase over that of last year , showing that a reasonable amount of prosperity still prevails. Many of the descriptions nre of property whose owners are abundantly able to pay whnt is due but have neglected to do so. Others are held by out of town owners who await this sort of notification to learn how much they are owing , and the number who are unable to pay is small , so that the tax sale on the first of November will not consist of any larg amount of property. The published list is but n little more than half of what was shown in the good old Grover days of IS'JO. A democrntio exchange gives as the reason General Prosperity is "stalking over the state so conspicuously" is thai the corn cribs and granaries are filled with plenty. If the writer wonla de vote some time to a study of condition ! ho would understand that this is no the sole reason. Last season the corn cribs and granaries were not filled to any bursting degree and yet prosperity "stalked. " Anyone without a failing memory or who was old enough to have n reasonable conception of event will recall the fact that there was nn ab.iudnnt crop during one or two years of Grover's reign and yet prosperity did not "btalk. " With corn at 8 and 10 cents , and other produce in proportion , there was no great cheer for the farmers or the town people either. It takes something more than good crops to jnako good times.

Tlio inmit of the prospectus , however , IN the tail end , where it is propoHod to neil stock in tlio company nt HO much per share. It is a temptation for anyone to invest in nuch n company , but the Judicious investor or speculator will itivoHtignto the company deeper thnn thprospectus. \ . It is announced from Washington that if the coal strike IH not Hottlod soon President HooHovolt will convene con gress in special HOBilou and deal with the situation in nn effective manner. Tlio president Is again right. When any man or Hot of men keep oil' the mar ket a necessity while they go into n battlotosottloa ditt'erenoo over wages or time , oxcord the limit In those modern liij'H , especially when the people have ho money and are willing to pay for ho necessity , it cannot bo denied thnt the mine owners and the workers have rights that the people are bound to re Hpeot , but the people also hnvo rights that they should bo bound to respect , uul the president nnd congress will bo thanked if they cause them to regard thoserights. . It should not bo conodood that the mine owners have any more right to tie up the fuel of the country HO the people cannot got , it than nuy sot of men would hnvo the right to tie up the ( lour , meat or clothing supply , if tlint wore possible. The government should bo nblo to prevent it and undoubtedly will if the people in the controversy c'o not nt once adjust their dltl'oreucOH. FIQHT THE PACKERS' MERGER.
