On Friday night of last week a well attended ineetina| of Democrats was held in W. R. Newels' office, and placed in nomination the Democratic City Ticket, which is paced at the head of our columns to-day. The Republican convens tion held on Monday evening co’d not, and therefore failed to improv,. upon it. The ticket is composed of tnterprising citizens, imbued as well with the spirit of retrenchment. John Egei, for Mayor, is a well k r own business man who, if elected, will watch closely the interests of the people. No wild-cat schemes would escape his vigilance and op position. The gentlemen named for Clerk, Treasurer a. d Marshal, are well fitted for the positions to wLich they have been nomina ed, and, if elected, will endea.or to discharge their respective ddties to the sat:sfaction of th » people. The candidates for councilmen are each and all gentlemen of experience and largely interested in the progress of the city. Enterprising, they will at the same time, if elected, see to it that there be no extravagant propositions entertained, nor wasteful expenditures allowed. They would conduct the affairs of the city in the interest of the whole people thereof, and not ot the behest of partisans and favorites. ihrouch the exertions of the numerous contestants for nominations, the Republican city convention was respectable in dimensions.

Just now the Republican presidential competitors are saying meaner things of each other than Democrats ever did.

In the seven months ended Jan. 31, 1896, the exports of manui actures from the United States amounted in value to $126,892,461, against $104,607,101 during the corresponding period in the year previous. This is the largest exportation of American manufactures for the same numbei |of months in the country's history. The year 1896 began most auspiciously with exports of American manufactures, amounting in value in January to $18,732,547, against $13,101,738 i>. January, 1895. At this rate of increase the export* of American ma lutacture* for the current year will exceed 8350,000,000.

See call for Democratic County Convention—the only correct call published. As it appears in the “Sheaf” and “Pilot" Union 'ownshin is left out. We trust that the Democracy of the several townships will see to it that they have lull representation ia that body. The Democratic party will come out of the contest withljincreased strength. It will outlive the calumnies heaped upon it by the opposition parties because it has not wholly extricated the country from the quagmires in which it was placed by these same parties. Now is not tiie time to falter. The fa’thful Democrat will not have to retrace his steps, nor sorrow for having gone after false ’gods. Stand fast and true! *• ■ * ♦— -• ......... 1 1 m for free commerce with all natims, political connections with none, and little or no diplomatic establishment. Thomas Jefferson

Pledged to Reduce Taxation.

The late Democratic City Convention appointed a committee to draft and publish reso’utions expressing its sense with reference to the necessity of reducing taxation. The committee present the following to which the candidates are pledged: Recogi izing the fact that all taxation must be derived from property and privileges and that the best interests of the inhabitants of this city will be conserved by reducing experditures for all purposes to the lowest possible limit eons stent with the development of a healthy growth and an enlargement of necessary public improvements; That in the event of the election of its candidates we pledge each and all of them to use their best efforts to secure the largest possible reduction in rates of taxation for city purposes; We pledge that the salaries of the city officers shall not be in*, creased over those received by the olliceis ot the Town Corporation.

Wages and Output in Harmony.

Ono rofißon why lower wages are paid in Groat Britain than in this country, by tne dav, is that In England the indUHtrial output por man is less than in the United States. Ah an illustration, Great Britain produces annually 188,277,(100 tons if coal and the United States 152,448,000 tone; in Great Britain 665,747 persons nro employed in coal mining and in the United States 363,300 persons. In other words, to produce less than a fourth more than the United States Gteat Britain employs nearly twice as many persons.— Harrisburg Patriot. Suitier &Ki(. ht: “Come in boys.
