Nearly every famous train in the country liys a nickname, which, in .... the maiority of in 7he C npid J stances, more ade- Sv>£ciui. quately describes the train than does its official name. This is particularly true of a train that comes into one of the big sheds at Jersey City, and is perhaps fa vored more by the station porters than any of the other trains that discharge passengers there. To the trainmasters and superintendents down south it is known as "Train No. 30," and on the timetable it is called "The I'nited States Fast Mail," but to every person in the section of the country through which it runs •and to many travelers it is "The Cupid Special." The train gets its name from the number of bridal i-ouples it carries. It seldom comes ii)i from the south without bringing from two to six brides and grooms, and its dining and sleeping car con ductors and others of the train crew are under specific orders to show par ticular attention and grant all pos sible favors to the temporarily un balanced people it carries. The Philadelphia Record relates that a pigtail party was given in his studio ... . the other night by Piutnil Party in an artist from the tile Kast. west. Ihe arriv ing guests were very curious to know what on earth this sort of a party is, and they found it to be one whereat the tails of pigs are the main dish of the supper. As accessories there were served of course sauerkraut, sausages, cheese, pretzels and beer; but the de licious pigtails lorded it easily over their neighbors. They were fried, and each guest found he could eat a dozen without difficulty. "Jn St. Louis," the artist said, "pigtails are as common an article of food as pigs' feet or beef steak. Every butcher has them on sale, and they cost about 20 cents a dozen. Here in the east they seem <o be unknown. 1 bad a great deal of trouble to get these that you are eat ing to-night, and had to order them two weeks in advance." Several men got the recipe for their cooking, and said they would leave standing orders for pigtails with their butchers. Founder's success comes from his nerve, says a Cincinnati observer. The average automobilist thinks he is in danger when he is going at a mile in two or three minutes, and that is pretty fast, but he must throw open the throttle and think of nothing else if he wants to break records. And let me here predict that within a year or two American autos operated by nervy Americans will beat a mile a minute by ten sec onds. The top notch will not be as slow in coming as the two-minute trotter. It is said by a correspondent of the Baltimore Sun that West Virginia is rapidly becoming more and more the nieeca of the negroes of the south. The climate of that state, as a whole, is congenial to this race, and the great coal and coking industries in operation, in almost every county, to gether with the extensive railroad construction being carried on, fur nish ready, as well as lucrative, em ployment for negro laborers, of whom 15,000 are employed in the mines. I was interested a few days ago, says a writer for the Cincinnati Commercial Tribune, in an item from a German paper giving the result of the investi gations upon the work done by the human heart. I »liink he said that, expressed in mechanical energy, the •work done in a day is equivalent to 540,000 foot pounds. Which is about the equivalent of walkingup Mount Adams ten times. Mayue he is right, but the work of a girl's heart for the man she loves beats that a block and then some. The rather strenuous wife »112 a western congressman met Wu 1 ing-1' anjaf at a dinner and eagerly sought to engage him iu conversa tion.

"Isn't it such a pity you are only Chinese!" TARIFF OF PHILIPPINES. Pro v Iklooh of the New Protective Meuvure Thiit Will I'rolinbly llecomc a Law. The house of representatives has acted with commendable promptness in regard to providing a tariff system for the Philippine islands. It is im peratively necessary that something be done in this line, since the supreme court decision makes illegal any coil lection of duties except such as are specially imposed by- congress. The sooner the tangle is straightened out the better both for this country and its new dependencies, says the Troy Times. The net passed is a simple but ef fective measure. It imposes the Ding ley rates 011 goods entering the Philip pines from the United States. It also provides for the collection of tonnage taxes on vessels plying between the United States and the Philippines, and that foreign vessels may ply between thesi ports until January 1, 190.1. Th# duties and taxes collected under the provisions of the bill are togo into the Philippine treasury, to be expend ed for the use and benefit of the is lands. In brief, it conforms precisely to the principles recently laid down by the federal courts. The fact that it has passed the house less than three weeks after the decision in the Phil ippine case is proof of the readiness by the popular branch of congress to make laws in conformity with con stitutional requirements and of its desire to relieve the government from an embarrassing situation. At least, such is the case as regards the majority. The bill v\as passed by a vote of 103 to 1:28. Only five repub licans-- Messrs. Littlefield, of Maine; McCall, of Massachusetts, and Heat wole, Stevens and Kddy, of Minnesota —voted against the measure. Only three democrats—Messrs. Davey, Proussard and Robertson, of Louisiana •—voted for it. The party division, it •will be seen, was practically complete. The speeches made by meinbt rs of the democratic opposition showed that the minority as a whole has learned noth ing by experience. They were pitched in the same old Pryan key of "anti imperialism," without the presenta tion of a new fact or argument. The speakers acted as though in blissful ignorance that they were using burnt powder—the very ineffective kind thai made much noise but did no execution in the last presidential campaign. They made it clear tint the attitude of the democracy in congress, as shown by the utterances and votes of the leaders, is to be one of stolid antag onism to republican measures deal ing with new conditions, and that it is incapable of rising to the high er requirements of the situation, or indisposed to do so. The republican administration and a republican con gress are thus left to settle great questions arising from the nation's growth, while the democrats till the role of helpless obstructionists. Tt is not a dignified or impressive position, but apparently it has been deliberate ly chosen. The Philippine tariff bill now g-oes to the senate, and though equal celeri ty is not to be anticipated there, it is reasonable to hope that the measure will pass that body and receive execu tive sanction not long after the re assembling of congress in January. Tiie need of the law is urgent, and it is so well designed to protect the in terests and advance the welfare of our new eastern possessions that long deliberation should be unnecessary. DniiocrfttN Try It. Andrew Lang seems to have inocu lated London society with the virus of a new fad, which the same is crystal gazing. lie has been recommending everybody to acquire a sphere of crys tal and 'peer steadily into it until he sees things. Hi- says Tt is best to into a room in which there are no other persons, sit down with one's back to the light, place the crystal on a piece of dark cloth in such a position that reflections are excluded, and stare steadily at it for about five minutes. Mr. Lang says he has known persons thus to see pictures of events happen ing miles away, and other remarkable visions. Perhaps, if Messrs. llill, Bry an, Cleveland, Tillman and a few other prominent democrats should provide themselves with crystal balls and stare steadily at them for about five hours, one or another might be able to read the answer to that burning question: "What is a democrat?" —Albany Jour nal PRESS OPINIONS.

CAMERON COUNTY PRESS, THURSDAY, JANUARY 9, 1902 GAGE'S RETIREMENT. Effective Work of tlir S»crft#rjr of th<* Trrnnopy by MeK inlej'M Appointment. The retirement of Secretary Gage from the cabinet, which seems to have been decided upon, will lie u distinct loss to the country. I£is ap pointment by President McKinley at the beginning of his first term was universally regarded as an ideal one, and went far toward establishing in advance confidence in the financial policy of the administration. Mr. Gage had so high a reputation as a practical banker and financier that it.was felt that lie would carry the same conservatism into the manage ment of government finances, and that as long as he remained at the head of the treasury department it would be on the best of terms and in close touch with the business in terests of -the country. This has proved to be the case. The secretary has managed a number of important financial operations very skillfully, and, while recognizing his fi-rst duly to the government, he has not for gotten the close relations between the treasury department and the people and the duty of its head to regard their interests as well. Close adherence to these lines lias made his administration of the treasury department remarkably successful and has vindicated the wisdom of calling to that important position a trained financier and business man without any previous experience in or knowledge of practical polities. Until he became secretary of the treasury Mr. Gage had never held an oflice, and no doubt his retirement from that office will be his retire ment from public life, says the In dianapolis Journal. An attempt will doubtless be made, in fact, is already made, to create an impression that his retirement is due to friction between him and President Roosevelt, but there is no evidence of this nor any reason to believe it. There is obvious reason enough for his retirement in the fact that, having held the position nearly five years, he has already got out of it all the fame and all the satisfac tion there is in it for him, and nat urally desires to resume his original and congenial vocation as a banker. Prom a pecuniary point of view he lias doubtless made a considerable sacrifice every year he has held the office. He deserves well of the coun try and should carry with him into private life the hearty approval and good wishes of all the people. BRYAN'S CONTRIBUTION. Opinion of the I«nt<» Lender ns to W lint Countituten a Dem ocrat. In a late issue of the Commoner Mr. Bryan makes a contribution of some little value to the extremely meager information bearing on the question: "What is a democrat?" He makes an urgent plea for the continuance of fusion between populists and demo crats. He says that they are separ t ed only by the difference of opinion as to the redeemability of green backs and the government owners) o of railroads. He declares that for li e present united effort "to save t' e greenbacks" is necessary, and. th . differences of opinion can be, set tit J later. Cooperation between populist., and democrats must continue, tl.e only question being whether it shai'. be between their separate party or ganizations or among individuals ur der one organization. "This is a ques tion," he declare s, "whic'i must be di - terni.ined largely by local condition'-. If the populists were to join the demo cratic party they would strengthen the reform element in that party and assist in preventing the repudiation of the principles of (lie Kansas Cit.y plat form. On the other, where the popu list party is strung- as compared with the democratic party, it may be wiser to cooperate than to attempt the amal gamation of the parties. Mr. Uryan's view, says the Albany Journal, seems to be, then, Ihat a democrat is'eithera populist adherent of Bryanison or a democratic ally of populism; in otlrer words, he is either a popocrat or a demopop. Prom this it might be inferred (hfit if Mr. Bryan could be induced to make a direct and unequivocal answer to the question "what is a democrat?" it would be: "There isn't any." Bipartisanship aside, it remains true that the policies favored by the republican party are those of pro gress! veness and prosperity. The moral is read aright by the St. T.ouis Globe-Democrat when it says: "West Virginia's greatest boom has come since it joined the republican column. Missouri has a like endowment of min eral wealth, but, politically, continues to trot along at the heels of the most narrow and silflsh ring in the United States." The biggest hindrance to Missouri's advancement is the polit ical bourbonism which keeps it tied to Hie Bryan chariot. That sort of thing never failed to injure the ma terial interests of a community.—-Troy Times. C The independent democratic Brooklyn Eagle remarks to the dem ocratic party that while its function is to place obstacles iu the way of what, in its judgment, should not In done, "opposition that does not dis criminate is worse than fatuous."— Indianapolis Journal. CCroJter and other democratic lenders appear to be entering upon a political campaign for Admiral Sehley that will kill him as dead politically as Admiral Dewey was killed as a dem ocratic candidate for the presidency. —lowa State Register. A YEAR OF BIG THINGS. Hero Jit of lf>ol for Ilevelo|>ni«-iit of American .Tluiiiilai-lurca Never liat Keen l:<| nailed. New York, Jan. 1. —Dun's licview will say on January 4: Most marvelous of all the phe nomenal evidences of advancement in business during the year was the pro gress made in manufacturing. It is impossible to be too extravagant in delineating the movements of tin- in dustrial world. .Never in the history of this or any other nation has such development occurred within the space of a twelvemonth. The expan sion of productive capacity was enor mous, the improved methods of work and organization were conspicuous, wise economies were introduced, but more than till other factors that made for permanent prosperity was the conservative resistance to price infla tion. All records of output for hard and soft coal were surpassed during 1901, despite the scarcity of cars that re tarded operation. A feature of ureat advantage was the expanding export movement, which reached more en couraging proportions than in earlier years. In ten months the value of shipments was $19,807,353, against $17,520,564 the year previous. Coke ovens made a phenomenal record, establishing a new high water mark or weekly output at 244,529 tons late in November. Further declines occurred in the price of wool during the opening months of 1901, and the bottom was not r ached until July 1, when 100 grades were quoted at 17.00 cents. This represented a loss of 31 per cent, from the high point of 24.70 in December, 1599. With the absorp tion of surplus stocks and general revival in the industry, the turning point was reached in September. Fur ther strength and activity was in evi dence each succeeding month. While 1900 was the best year ever experienced by donVstic agricultural interests, the opening year of the new century was in many ways more profitable, and the two together have put the farming population in much the most satisfactory position in the nation's history. Formerly the sea son of harvesting and crop moving brought heavy borrowing of funds at the east, but interior conditions have changed to such an extent that western bankers are lenders at New York and Chicago and while there is still a large movement of money awtiy from the east during the fall months, it is of funds that were held here for the account of interior cor respondents. There is a steady tend ency to enlarge the acreage sown in the leading crops, yet supplies do not, increase, owing to the better d 'tnand both lor home consumption and ex port. iHeat and drouth caused a seri ous curtailment of the corn crop. Meats naturally reflected the ex pensive position of fodder and it was gratifying to notice that exports were not materially reduced by the high level. Cotton passed a season of wide variations, in tue early months at taining the highest price of the de cade, but falling back sharply as the spinning situation was rendered un favorable by exorbitant raw material. In the year of big things it was natural that new high records should be recorded in deposits and loans. Financing ot big syndicate operations and unparalleled stock market deal ings combined to raise the total of 1 urns and discounts to $914,023,000 c a February 10, against $525.530,600 on September 15, 1900, the top point of that year. On the same date de posits attained their zenith at $1,011,- ''.29,000, compared with $914.S10,:;00 on March 4, 1599, the record prior tt 1901. ELECTRICITY IS LIFE. Prof. Loeli Announce* Another Bti*« covery— Prof. Siuvji's Cerinicldo. Chicago, Jan. I. Prof. Jacques i.oeb, of the University of Chicago, in a paper read yesterday before the American Society of Naturalists an nounced that he had discovered the physical processes that accompany life and that electricity and not beat energy is the basis of life, lie does not claim to have solved the problem of "what is life," but to have proved it theory which overthrows a funda mental portion of the teachings of text books on physiology. It is said that while Mr. I.oeb's experiments in prolonging life are important, thus far they were ap plicable only in the case of a single iinimal cell and therefore of narrow limitat ion. Another paper w>ieh attracted special attention was that read be fore the meeting of tiie Bacteriologi cal society by Prof. F. G. N'ovy, of the University of Michigan, who made public for the first time the result of his struggle to find a perfect germi cide. I lis results were beyond ex pectations, for he has, it is claimed, discovered an organic peroxide which is absolutely destructive or organic life, and which can be taken into the system by human beings with perfect impunity. $1*25.000 to Kmploye».

I.—-A definite plan of action to defeat the proposed consolidation of the Northern Pa cific, Great Northern and Burlington railway systems was unanimously agreed upon yesterday by uie gover nors and attorneys general of seven northwestern states in which those roads have mileage. Legal action will be instituted immediately in Minne sota courts with this object in view, Just now, when or where these suits will be brought, neither Gov. Van Sunt, of Minnesota, nor Attor ney General Douglas would state. The conference adjourned late Tues day afternoon after adopting resolu tions condemning the proposed merger as contrary to sound public policy and pledging support to any proper legal action which may be brought to test its validity. Other resolutions adopted call on congress to investigate the subject and favor the granting of power to the inter state commerce commission to fix maximum rates upon inter-state bus! ness. Minneapolis, Minn., Jan. I.—Judge William Loehren, of the United States circuit court, yesterday dis solved the temporary injunction is sued in the ease of Peter Powpr against the Northern Pacific Railro;id Co. by Judge Elliott, of the district cox it of Hennepin county, on Mon day, The injunction which was dis solved by the order of Judge Loeh ren restrained the Northern Pacific from issuing any evidences of indebt edness to retire the preferred stock of the company, or to retire the pre ferred stock in any other manner than, by the use of the surplus net earnings of the road. It also restrained the Northern Pa cific and its managers from entering into any agreement by which the road would be consolidated or merged, through the medium of the Northern Securities Co., with the Great Northern or the Burlington, or either of them. Judge Loehren held that railroad corporations could not do indirectly what the law prevented them from doing directly, and that any method by which consolidation of two or more competing and parallel lines would be brought about would be il legal. and a writ of injunction would lie to restrain the consummation of the plan. But that there was noth ing in the case as presented to him to indicate the stockholders of the Northern Pacific Railway Co. were attempting such a consolidation. Mr. Power's attorneys authorized the statement that the fight had just commenced and that they will appeal to the United States supreme court. BARTLEY IS PARDONED. rile ex-Stute Treasurer of \clira*ka, Who ISiiibezy.led Huge SUISIN, IK Ite- Iraked from I'rinoti. Lincoln, Neb., Jan. 1. —Gov. Savage last night granted an unconditional pardon to Joseph S. Hartley, former state treasurer, who five years ago was sentenced to 20 years in the peni tentiary on conviction of having em bezzled $201,0(10 of state funds. The pardon went into effect from the mo ment it was delivered to Mrs. Bart ley by the governor's private secre tary. It was presented to Warden Davis at the penitentiary a half hour later, and later, with his family and lawyer, Hartley was brought in acar riage to his home in the city. Hartley lias been in the state prison four years and six months, in addi tion to a year in the Douglas county jail while his appeal to the supreme court was pending. Ilis entire short age is alleged to have been $500,000, but lie was convicted on the single count of obtaining $201,000. Gov. Savage makes an extended ex planation of his reasons for granting the pardon. Primarily, he says, he is led to believe that the ends of jus* tice have been met in the punish ment already inflicted. He thinks the enormity of the crime was not such as to merit the sentence im posed. Further, he liiuls extenuating circumstances. Mr. Hartley, he says, was state treasurer at a time when tlie whole country was undergoing financial depression. Owing to de preciating values many Nebraska banks were on the verge of collapse and it was with the best intentions and to tide them over, the governor urges, that Mr. Hartley advanced tlieni state money. iMuch of this had been lost, for which Hartley stood responsible, though he did not profit. The gover nor tinaily gives the names of sev eral hundred of the most, prominent men in the state appealing for the pardon. Four thousand others, he says, have made the same request. The governor also refers to the parole granted Hartley last July, which lie justifies. It was given, he savs, because it was represented that by so doing it was possible for the paroled prisoner to make collections oi money, which would be restored to'the state. The action of the re publican state contention, demand ing his return to prison, while he re gard \ I it unwise, seemed to him mandatory, and he cancelled the parole. .1 IHNantroiiK Collision.

Owing 1 to the recent large influx of population into Western Canada it has become .absolutely necessary in many parts of Manitoba, Assiniboia, Saskatchewan, and Alberta to in crease the school accommodation. In many places 'buildings have been erected that are only half-occupied. This is perhaps as good evidence as will be found not only of their satis faction with their present school sys tem and their confidence that it will remain as it is, but also of their firm belief in the future expansion of the country, in increased immigration* and it further indicates that they have little fear that the well estab lished rate of births in civilized com munities will not be maintained there. The free homestead laws and the cheap railway lands offer great in ducements, which are opening up the new settlements.
