assent, while he ignores or minimizes certain important contributary causes of the financial and industrial panic just passing away, while, in short, there are times when he cannot forget that he is a democrat, the speech, as a whole, is a valuable contribution to the literature of present-day finance. The positions he assumes are generally sound, the points he makes have been proven by the history of the past, the advice he gives his countrymen is judicious and sane. It is a fortunate thing that the secretary of the treasury at this critical period of our national history entertains such sound ideas. There was no real necessity for any defense of his past record. Consistency is not always a virtue.

The men who own silver mines or who are speculating in the white metal, as well as those who imagine that free coinage will enable them to scale down their obligations are tremendously active and very energetic. They are in control of the democratic party at this moment, in spite of such men as President Cleveland and Secretary they are making a desperate effort to capture the organization of the republican party. The 1 "U- BETWEEN- furnished with all modern conveniences; the excellent dinner furnished by Mr. Levi Nicodcmus, and last, but not least, the courtesies shown to the members by Rev. and Mrs.

E. D. Weigle also enjoyed the day's outing at the Lutheran parsonage, while the brethren were making melody in the church and discussing the theology of the Book of Worship. Martinsburg knows how to make people feel at home. BASE BALL.

ALTOONA, MAY 21, 1805. GONE GLIMMEEING. The revised opinion of the supreme court of the United States, filed yesterday, annihilates the income tax sections of the Gorman tariff act. Mr.

Justice Jackson, who has somewhat recovered his health, and who sat with his colleagues, voted to affirm the constitutionality of that portion of the act, but Mr. Justice Shiras, having had some time for reflection, shifted his position and voted with Chief Justice Fuller and Justices Field, Gray and Brewer, thus constituting a majority of the court. This ends the business. There is a wild suggestion in this morning's press dispatches that the secretary of the treasury may hold on to the money that has already been paid in, and that a change in the composition of the court may result in a reversal of the decision. But who is going to retire? Justice Jackson, it is said, and he voted with the minority.

The thing seems to be pretty thoroughly killed. This is a fitting outcome to legislation that was never necessary, and which now turns out to be a violation of the national constitution as well. It was unnecessary for the reason that under the beneiicent provisions of the McKin-ley act the country was prosperous, the government meeting all its obligations and steadily reducing the bonded indebtedness, while labor was generally employed and fairly well remunerated. If the people had known when they were well off they would not have given our democratic brethren an opportunity to enact the income tax sections of the Gorman act, but would have left matters as they were. The Tribune has all along contended that the inquisitorial income tax was both needless and unconstitutional.

There was a time during the progress of the civil war that it was submitted to in this country. But even then, when every expedient had to be resorted to in order that revenue might be procured, it was extremely obnoxious. Its re-enactment in a time of profound peace was highly absurd; no wonder there was a general uprising against it. No wonder that the supreme court was promptly asked to pass upon its merits. That court has declared the tax a direct one and therefore unconstitutional.

It has been swept out of existence. The anticipated income of $40,000,000 from this source was reduced to about $10,000,000 by the first decision of the supreme court. Now the latter sum has vanished into thin air. The United Press dispatches from Washington discuss the probabilities of an extra session of congress or of another bond istue. The chances seem to be that congress will not be summoned in any event.

As to the bond issue that depends upon circumstances. Nobody need be surprised if one come. Thus it turns out that the income tax advocates have not only added nothing to the income of the government, but their discredited and unlawful measure haB actually cost the taxpayers about $100,000. This is one kind of modern statesmanship. KB.

CARLISLE AND FREE COINAGE. The Tribune surrenders a good deal of space this morning to extracts from Secretary Carlisle's speech, delivered last evening at Covington, Ky. We do not apologize for so doing, because the currency problem is by all odds the most important confronting the people, and the views of Mr. Carlisle, holding as he does the treasury portfolio, are of great interest. It is reasonably well understood, too, that he speaks in some measure for President Cleveland.

There is one thing about the secretary that we like. He told the people to whom he spoke that he is not a candidate for any office within their gift; for that reason, and because he has cultivated the habit of truthfulness, he cares nothing about the reception that will be given his opinions. He may be mistaken, but he is sincere. And sincerity is a shining virtue these days. We have no thought of reviewing Mr.

Carlisle's address in this article. It is accessible to the reader and deserves the careful consideration of every voter. It is singular, however, how close are the secretary's views to the policy hitherto pursued by the republican party. He is not in favor of either gold or silver monometallism. He is opposed to the free coinage of silver at a ratio, of 16 to 1 or at any other ratio, except in accordance with international agreement, and that does not seem practicable at present.

He is earnestly of the opinion that every dollar in this country ought to be as good as every other dollar, which means just now at any rate that every dollar must be worth a gold dollar. That has thus far been the policy of the republican party. It ought always to be the policy of the whole country. While there are some things in Secre tary Carlisle's speech to which we cannot P. S.

The time to clinch the cold and stop the cough is at the beginning. It is well to remember this.

Apply the remedy at once; have it at hand and use it freely and regularly. A neglect of first symptoms makes the case more difficult, leads to protracted complaint and often to serious illness. Don't forget that Irwin's Compound Syrup AVhite Pine and Tar is the best Cough Syrup. W. H.

Murray's Son MacDONALD KEESEY, General Insurance Agents. mine owners and the speculators don't care a straw for the country if they can but force gold out and silver in. The unfortunate who are always hoping that the next turn of the wheel will better their condition are 'likewise for free coinage; so are many who have no principle but who see in this new crusade a chance to replenish their purses. The time has come when all men who believe in a sound financial policy must unite, regardless of their previous party affiliations, to withstand the silver mine owners and their misguided victims. Those who have studied finance and who know something of the result of "cheap" money experiments in the past, will need no persuasion to induce them to take their stand on the right side.

As Blair county has no silver mines her people do not have the selfish instinct to contend against. Let them stand firm by the right. EDITORIAL NOTES. Oscar Wilde's health appears to be improving. He doubtless has a notion that his present trial will result in his re-lease.

Our servants at Harrisburg ought to try to behave themselves for the balance of the session. They have won for themselves an unenviable reputation. And so the Knights of Labor have sold their mansion in Philadelphia. At present the chances are that the $40,000 received for it will be more serviceable than the mansion. The recusant members of the legisla ture had no difficulty last night in getting themselves excused for unauthorized absence.

Perhaps they may have more trouble when they come to face their constituents. The proposed new county, to be named Grow, has been reported against by the committee appointed to investigate the matter. The cost has been but $3,000. What the Quay county scheme has cost is not stated. The president has issued the order retiring Admiral Meade and reads that fiery old sea dog a lesson on subordination that will bring the blood to his cheeks.

Nevertheless there would be no navy if each sailor were permitted to rail against his superiors. The Spanish captain general in Cuba announces that he is at last ready for business and that it is his desire to confine the insurrection to one province. No doubt that is an honest wish, but if it is to be translated into fact the captain general will have to talk less and do a good deal more. The tenth annual report of the board of health of Altoona was presented to city councils last evening. It contains a great mass of facts, all interesting, some gratifying, to which we may refer at more length in a future issue.

It is cheering to note that the death rate is remarkably low, and becomes increasingly so with each passing year. The alumni and friends of Girard College paid honor to the memory of its founder yesterday celebrating the one hundred and forty-fifth anniversary of his birth with appropriate services. The old gentleman had some peculiarities, but he did a noble thing when he founded the institution which bears his name and preserves his memory. MET IN MABTINSBUBG. Lutheran Ministerial Association Convened There Yesterday.

The Lutheran Ministerial association of Blair and adjacent counties met in the Lutheran church at Martinsburg, Rev. E. Dutt, pastor, yesterday afternoon. In the absence of the president, A. H.

Shertz was called to the chair. Rev. D. S. Lentz made the opening prayer.

Roll call and reading of the minutes followed. The topic for the day was postponed and the time very profitably spent in a critical examination of the Book of Worship by the members present. While the hymnal stands fully as high as any other, both in hymns and music adapted to the same, yet the association sends through its representative to the general synod meeting at Hagerstown, on June 5, a number of suggestions to be presented to the committees that have in charge the revision the hymnal.

Mr. Worley was a soldier in the late war, being a member of company Sixth regiment, and was buried with the honors of war. Posts G2 and 408, Grand Army of the Republic, were well represented and the music was furnished by the Fifth regiment drum corps. Deceased was a colored man and of the eighteen old soldiers of his race in this city, seventeen were in the funeral procession. Anniversary of Stephen Girard's Birth.

Philadelphia, May 20. The 145th anniversary of the birth of Stephen Girard wns celebrated this afternoon at Girard College. The exercises, which were attended by 8,000 persons, began at 3 p. and included an introductory address by Thomas P. Lonsdale, president of the Alumni association; an anniversary address by Colonel A.

K. McClure, and the alumni oration entitled "Stephen Girard and American Citizenshin." bv John Nolan. Late this afternoon the an nual review of the Girard cadets to the number of 480 was held on the college grounds. The various college buildings were elaborately decorated in nonor ot the occasion. Not Enough Land for a New County.

Harrisburg, May 20. The commissioners appointed by the governor under the act ot 1878 to survey and report on the proposed county of Grow, filed their report to-day. They find that there is not sufficient area in the proposed limits measuring from the court house at AVilkesbarre or from the limits of that city, to form a new county and therefore make a recommendation against it. The area required in 400 square they found about 322 square miles. The population was sufficient, being about 25,000.

The expense of the commission approximates $3,000. Marriage Beoord. The following marriage licenses were granted by J. L. Hartman, clerk of the orphans' court, at Holfidaysburg, since our last report: To Harry E.
