oomiPMom CORRESPONDENTS AFFAIRS AT ANDREiVS. A Do-Nothing Leglslat arc-?Governor Blease Commended. Andrews,February 5:?So far, Mr k|*^ditor, we notice that our honorable i htw^rnik^ers have revised neither the leni tirv l?m- nur thf> frun mort vow* wngvv ? 1 gage farce. We notice that they have before the House for discussion the biennial sessions of the Legislature, but we fear it will die a natural death, as before. Our taxpayers are called on to pay the expenses of the annual sessions of the t; General Assembly when no one is , benefited at all. The members have to visit the prominent cities of the State because they become weary of fcting on the stool of "do nothing/' ^All of our tax-payers fully sanction these facts. Why should this continue? Our honorable delegation is not to blame; it is the State at large. We hope the day will speedily come when our Legislature will meet only everv two years. We see where our tax levy will be raised ^Again. One or two more raises will Hfcttisback to the "carpet-bag''government of the '70's. The newspaperwmay criticise Governor Blease, but Ijp has stood for reducing the expenses of the State and I believe he 5vill continue to use his veto power on those extravagant appropilations made by the Legislature. Ny has the endorsement of quite a Prot of voters on that question. The writer killed two Berkshires and Poland China pigs last week, ages respectively li and 2i years, the older one weighing net 510 pounds,the younger 320. This at 10c per pound is not so bad as 8c cotton. These two pigs would have brought SfiS 00 nn the market, euual to two bales of cotton. Let's raise more pigs. Mr G W Skipper,an old Confederate veteran of this place, is quite ill at this writing. This old gentleman is now beyond his eighty-fifth milepost in life and is becoming quite feeble. He hope to see him still spared to his loved ones for a long | while. W S C. ^JjCRANTON SKETCHES.
