—2_ Just at the time when New York
turned the water into her new Cro-
ton aqueduct beer dropped from $6.00
to $3.50 per barrel in Chicago. The
windy city of the West is determined
to convince the country that she has
greater facilities and advantages for a
World's Fair than is possessed by the
effete metropolis of the East.
Last Monday one of the most
prominent and respectable Republicans
of Belletonte met the editor of the
WarcaMaN on the street and asked
him not to omit the publication of
Henry C. Lea's letter in his paper.
He said that that document should ap-
pear not only in every Democratic pa-
per in the State, but in every Republi-
can paper as well, as Republican edi-
tors could not do a greater service to
their party than by exposing the cor-
rupt and arrogant Boss who has as.
sumed to be its owner. He said that
the Republican party needs nothing so
much asa vindication against Quay.
This prominent aad respectable Re-
publican intends to vote for Parrisox.
——The papers that are doing ser-
vice m the interest of the Boss are
unnecessarily interested in what ex-
Senator WALLACE is going to do. It
isn't at all likely that they have been
taken into his confidence. His busi-
nest calls him to Europe for a few
weeks, but he will be back on the soil
of Pennsylvania long enough before
the election to convince everybody,
particularly meddlesome Republican
journals, that in a political contest he
has lost none of his old-time power, and
that his attachment to Democratic
principles aud his zeal for Democratic
success have not diminished in the
least. Gentlemen of the Republican
press, you will hear from the ex-Senator
before the ides of November in a way
that won't be pleasant to you.
——President HarrIcoN was iovit-
ed to attend the Williams Grove Gran-
gers’ picnic, and in the letter returning
thanks for the invitation he is repre-
sented to have said that he was glad to
have an opportunity ‘to educate Penn-
sylvania farmers more thoroughly as
to what is necessary for their mainten-
ance and life.” This sounded very
much like. the expression of a man
who has grown as big-headed as the
President has since his elevation to his
high office, and yet it didn’t seem
possible that he could indulge in such
foolish language, even though believing,
as he no doubt does, that he is ca-
pable of giving the farmers some valu-
able suggestions. But it turns out that
Mr. Harrison didn’t use such an ex-
pression in his letter, and the Grangers
may attend the pic nic without the fear
that the President will be there intent
upon making a dunce of himself.
BARAT TN
Death of General Fremont,
It was but a few weeks ago that the
friends of General Jonny C. FremoNT
had the gratification of seeing him re-
stored to his former rank in the army
and placed on the retired list as a Major
General. They were pleased to think
that this would render him comfortable
in his old age which they hoped to see
prolonged for some years yet. On
Monday it was announced that he had
died suddenly at his home in New
York on that day. An attack of peri
tonitis ended hislife, which bad extend-
ed through seventy-seven years, he
having been born in 1813. Fremont
was not one of our greatest men, but
he always will be placed among Ameri-
ca’s celebrated characters. His explo-
ration of the unknown regions among
and beyond the Rocky Mountains
gave him his first distinction and won
for him the nameof “Pathfinder.” The
celebrity gained by this exploit led to
his nomination as the first Republican
candidate for President. During the
war of the rebellion he was given im-
portant military commands, but he was
an utter failure as a military leader.
He will be remembered chiefly as the
man who blazed the way of civilization
across the continent to the Pacific
ocean.
Silence.
The quietude of RoiNsoN Crusor's
island-home was nothing to be com-
pared to the silence that has fallen
upon the Republican leaders of Peno-
sylvania. Quay is silent, but his si-
lence does not surpass that of DeraMA-
TER. McDowsrn, who got the con-
gressional nomination in the Twenty-
fifth district by buying the Beaver dele-
gates, surrounds himself with a pano-
ply of silence. WarLace who managed
the deal is equally silent. The Press,
which some months ago was almost
clamorous for DALAMATER to purge
himself of serious charges brought
against Lim, has been overtaken by a
silence on that subject that makes the
talling of a leaf positively noisy in com-
parison. The silence that prevails in
Republican circles can be equalled on-
ly by the silence of the grave to which
the old party will be borne in Novem-
ber.
Unlike the usual annual alarm
about the failure of the Delaware and
New Jersey peach crops, the supply cf
the luscious fruit from those quarters
this year will be an invisible quantity.
The premature advance of the buds
caused by the mild weather of last win-
ter put them in condition to be destroy-
ed by succeeding frosts, with a result
that placed a crop for this season
among the impossibilities. The chance
for peaches in other sections is equally
slim. The carefull and provident
housewife this year will be saved the
labor of “putting up” the usual family
snpply of canned peaches, but she will
be pretty sure to expend her energies
upon some other branch of the canning
business for which the season is more
favorable. It doesn’t seem like sum-
mer to her, and she isn’t happy, if she
can’t array the pantry shelves with
the customary product of the canning
season.
--—Thank yon,Mr. Brave, for say-
ing in your letter to Senator FRYE that
“there is not a line in the entire [Me-
“Kinley tariff] bill that would open a
“market for another bushel of wheat
“or another barrel of pork.” This is
a matter of great interest to the Ameri-
can farmers,
Blaine Should Not Complain.
Secretary Braing, writing from his
sammer retreat at Bar Harbor to Sena-
tor Fryg,expresses the astonishment he
experiences in learning that “American
“flour under the new duties imposed
“by Spain, cannot reach the Cuban
“ market under acostof $11.46 per bar-
“rel, counting the shipment price in
“ New York at $4.80 per barrel ;”’ and
that “other articlesof American growth
“are likewise taxed by Spain to the
“ point of prohibition.”
Does it become Mr. BLAINE to com-
plain about the Spaniards doing exact-
ly what the congress of his own party
is doing—in fact, setting an example to
other nations by imposing tariff duties
that are almost prohibitive? If our
farm products are being excluded from
foreign markets,are not foreigners justi
fied for such exclusion by the high tariff
of this coantry? A tariff is a tax,
Mr. BLAINE, as you admit when you
say that “articles of American growth
are taxed by Spain to the point ot pro-
hibition,” and it is a kind of tax which
one nation has as good a right to re-
sort to as another.
——The President signed the Silver
bill on sight and the new bullion Treas-
ury notes will soon be rustling in the
hands of the money changers.

Why He Flopped.
The Philadelphia Press has publish
ed expressions of Republicans in va-
rious parts of the State indicating their:
satisfaction with the nomination of
DeraMaTer. Among them was that ot
Mr. AvporLpa OpPENHEIMER, the lead- |
ing clothing merchant of Sunbury.
The Democrat of that: place gives the
following explanation of OPPENHEIMER'S
case, which certainly conveys an econ-
omic as well as a political moral :
Oppenheimer came to’ this country from
Germany about twenty-five yearsago, and af-
ter carrying a pack through this region, open-
ed a clothing store at Trevorton. In a short
time he moved to Sunbury, where he has been
located ever since, and has grown very rich
out of hjs business. Like the vast majority of
the people who come to ;this country from Ger-
many, Oppenheimer was a natural Democrat,
and was with the Democratic party until in the
campaign of 1888, when he turned against
Cleveland and supported Harrison, One of
his reasons was an unique one, and one that
every farmer and laboring man in this county
should study over. He was opposed tc the posi-
tion of the Democratic party on free wool. If we
had free wool a $12 suit would sell for $3.00, and
80 on in proportion, through all the clothing
stock. Free wool, then, meant that a clothing
stock worth $20,000 before the passage of a free
wool bill would be worth $16,000 afterwards, a
loss of $4,000 to the man owing the stock, but a
gain of just that difference to the farmers and
laborers who buy the clothing. Suits would
be cheaper, and that would help every purchas-
er, but the sellers profit would be less. There
Oppy was against Cleveland.
The same eye to self interest that led
this clothing merchant to oppose free
wool should affect in an opposite way
those who are interested in baving
cheaper clothing.
The New Chairman.
The Democratic State Central Com- |
mittee met in Harrisburg on Wednes-
day to elect a chairman in place of Mr.
Hagrrity,who was unable to act in that

‘
PUBLIC
ACCUSATIONS.
‘ -
Mr. Quay, who so carefully avoids
icourts and juries, bas seemed to im-
| agine that if the Republicans of Penn-
| sylvania could be cozened into indors-
capacity on account of other pressind® ing at the polls his candidate it would
business, and chose congressman Kerr
of this District to head the Committee
as chairman and manage the Siate
campaign. L'his was an excellent se-
lection. Mr. Kerr is intelligent, ac-
tive and energetic, and has proved his
capacity for organization as chairman
of the Clearfield Democratic county
committee The record he has made
in congress is of a hich order for a new
member, and the same qualities which
be has displayed as a representative
will make him a most efficient leader
of a campaign. His strong friendship
for Mr. WALLACE, viewed in connec-
tion with his selection as chairman, is
a significant and auspicious ecircum-
stance. Every thing seems to tend to
the success of the Democratic ticket.
The decline of sentimental in-
terest in the heroic and patriotic
features of the war for the Union
cymmented upon by the Nation .
No
one need be surprised that this interest,
which was co strong some years ago, is
weakening. The spectacle of the rush
of pension claimants demanding pe-
cuniary compensation for their patriot-
ism gives the service of the old veter
ans such an appearancs of venality
that the patriotic sentiment is entirely
eliminated. Heroism is divested ofits
sentimentality when a money valne is
attached to it. The hero then becomes
a mercenary.

His oppo-
Henry C. Lea Scathes the Republican
Boss,
He Calls Upon His Fellow Republicans
to Free Their Party from the Do-
mination of a Corrupt Leader.
Immediately after the noraination of
Delamater it was announced in the Re-
publican papers that Henry OC. Lea,
Charles 8. Wolf and other Republicans
who had led the Independent movement
against Cameron bossism in 1882, had
announced their intention of supporting
Quay’s candidate. The falsity of such
a report, so far as Mr. Lea is concerned,
is shown by the following address which
he makes to his fellow Republicans :
TO THEREPUBLICANS OF PENNSYLVANIA.
It is not often that any political or-
ganization has such an opportunity of
redeeming itself from a corrupt domina-
tion as that which is offered to us in the
November election. Eight years ago,
in 1882, the thoughtful members of the
Republican party rose against the boss-
ism of the Cameron clique and taught it
a wholesome lesson, which should have
served to purify our politics for a decade.
Unfortunately, the fruits of that strug-
gle were thrown away by the supineness
which allowed Mr. Quay, in 1884, to
obtain a “vindication” by successfully
competing for the office of State Treas-
urer ix spite of the rumors which con-
nected his name with misappropriation of
the public funds. It was then predicted
that his next step would be to secure
the coming Senatorial vacancy and to
supplant Mr. Cameron as the Republi-
can boss of Pennsylvania. These pre-
dictions have been, unfortunately, veri-
fied, and the results are seen in the de-
gradation of our political position, which
renders our State an object of pity and
contempt throughout the Union. The
bossism. of the Camerons had in it some
elements of manliness; that of Mr.
Quay is sunk to the lowest level of
‘practical politics,” based as it is solely
on adroit manipulation of patronage in-
spired by the meanest selfishness. Tt
represents not one single idea of Repub-
lican statesmanship and public policy,
but only the determination to rule or
ruin. The selfish ambition of the boss
and “his henchmen is its sole guiding
principle, and its methods, as exhibited
in Cambria county, are those of the
sneak thief and foot-pad when the dis-
tribution of the spoils fails to eftect its
object.
QUAY WANTS ANOTHER VINDICATION,
As in 1884 Mr. Quay again comes
before you for a ‘‘vindication.” Then
the accusations against him were sim-
ply rnmors, the truth of which few had
an opportunity of investigating. Now
these rumors have assumed the shape
of public charges, strengthened by every
detail of time and place and circum-
stance, and to them have been added
accusations of subsequent malfeasances
committed by him, of even greater
criminality, similarly weighted with
more than abundant details. Tt is not
necessary to repeat to you the humiliat-
ing story of a public life stained with
every variety of political immorality.
That story has been scattered broadcast
over the land by journa's of the highest
standing, which have defiantly challeng-
ed him to assert and defend his in-
nocence by suing them for libel The
courts are opened to him,and exemplary
damages as well as acquittal before his
countrymen would reward him if he
could successfully face a jury and under-
go a cross-examination ; but for more
than five months he has endured these
accusations in stolid silence, without
taking a step to redeem his character.
The inevitable result is that he is regard-
ed as acquiescing in the charges and as
virtually confessing his guilt, and the
country at large is looking to see wheth-
er the once proud State of Pennsylva-
nia has sunk to so low a pitch of de-
gradation as contentedly to endure the
domination of such a man.

I serve him as a political vindication.

| cently publicly azcused by Sentator

1 tion to the State Senate, and of perjury

‘cuser has challenged him to a sait for

of an indirect vindication at your hands,
and asks you to humiliate yourselves
by electing to the highest office in the
. State a smirched candidate whose no-
mination has been forced upon you by
a smirched boss. It isa high price that
they expect you to pay for the vindica-
I tion of two such individuals, and the
{impudence of such a demand upon

| by a kind of political training which has

| Fellow-Repubiicans, a vindication
i truly is needed at the coming election,
[ but it is not the vindication of tainted
| politicians who dare not vindicate them-
i selves. You are called upon to vindi-
| cate your own manhood, to vindicate
! the honesty of your own party, to
| vindicate the honor of your own State.
| You are called upon to show that vou
i do not wear the collar of Mr. Quay ;
| that your votes are not to be bought
and sold by the manipulation of patron-
age, and that you are not to be driven
to the polls like cattle to make good
the bargains of your bosses. You are
called upon to teach a lesson to yourself-
constituted masters, and to show the
, country at large that the grand old
! party may still be trusted to manage
| the affairs of the nation. If Pennsylva-
| nia, the stronghold of Republicanism,
| the typical Republican State, tamely
acquiesces in the debauched domina-
tion of Quayizm, and proclaims that
| Messrs. Quay and Delamater are its
trusted and honored leaders, what chance,
{ think you, will the Republican party
; have when it asks the support of the sob-
; er second thought of the country in 1892?
Rebellion against the usurped domina-
tion of such leaders is the truest fidelity
tr party and the highest duty of patriot-
ism,
INTEREST OF THE STA E IN PATTISON’S
HANDS.
Fortunately, the canvass is one
which can be made to turn exclusively
on local issues. On all general ques-
tions you can give practical expression
to your convictions by voting for the
Congressional and Legislative candidates
who represent them, and you ean thus
emphasize the rebuke which you ad-
. minister to the methods and morals of
Quayism. In ex-Governor Pattison the
Democrats have given you an unex-
ceptionable candidate, whose record
shows that the interests of the State
will be safe in his hands. If in mak-
ing that record he earned the hostility of
the giant corporations —if the influence
of the Pennsylvania Railroad and of
the Standard Oil Company is under-
stood to be counted upon by Mr. Dela-
mater—it is only another claim on your
suffrages for Mr. Pattison. He repre-
sents not only the people against the
bosses but the people against the cor-
porations, and his defeat will be the
triumph of all that is most dangerous
and most deadly to our institutions.

The Chairman of a Republican County
Committee Declares against
Delamater.
PirrsBurG, Pa., July 12.—L. E.
Hamsher, Chairman of the McKean
County Republican Committee, and a
partner in the Bradford oil well supply
firm of which Senator Emery, who re-
cently made such grave charges against
G. W. Delamater, candidate for Gov-
ernor, isa member, was in the city to-
day on business. In an interview on
the Gubernatorial situation he said :
“The feeling against Quay and his
man Delamater in McKean county, so
near Delamater’s home, is the bitterest
I have ever seen. The county is Re-
publican by a majority of from 1000 to
1200,but 1 feel confident in saying these
figures will be found in the Democratic
column this time. The oil producers,
who employ most of the labor in that
region, will ficht Delamater, because
when he was in the Legislature he
fought every measure that was Jor their
benefit and thereby showed very plainly
‘hat he was playing into the hands of
the Standard Company. The belief is
firm in McKean county that were Quay’s
man elected he would be under the con-
trcl of the Standard and would favor
all legislation tending to enrich that
octopus and crush out the smaller pro-
ducers. Heis a corporation man from
head to foot, and never was known to
be anything else.
“The thousands of men employed by
the producers will vote against Delama-
ter, for their occupation depends upon
it. Senator Emery will take the stump
for Pattison early this fall, and will do
all his talking to Republicans. He will
reiterate his charges, which so far Dela-
mater has not attempted to deny. Tt is
seldom Pennsylvania bas seen a Repub-
lican Senator stumping for a Demo-
cratic Governor, but such a sight will
be witnessed during this campaign.
“The Republicans of the oil regions
have grown tired of Quay’s dictatorial
policy, and will give him a telling re-
uke at the polls, the only place they
have a chance to speak. It is no exag-
geration to say that although Delama-
teris a young man he is just as dis-
tasteful to the people who know him
best as is Mr. Quay. I am a Republi-
can, and have been so all my life, never
voting any other ticket, but the present
party ticket in this State is so distaste.
tul to all good Republicans that I for
once in my life have decided to vote the
straight Democratic ticket.”
} Senator Quay’s Boast.
i Pittsburg Times (Rep)
\ “I have been making Governors all
my life, and yet I have never had one of
my own. Iam going to nominate Dela-
mater and know how it feels to own a
Governor just for once.”’—
M. 5. QUAY:
To raE EDITOR oF THE TiMES—Sir
‘Why is it that you keep the above at the
head of your ed torial column ? Do you
think M. S. Quay ever made the expres-
sion? If so, state where, when and to
whom. I do not believe he ever made
use of that language.
M. J. B. Brooks.
The Times has given prominent place
for several days to Senator Quay’s boast
in order that everybody might know ex-
actly why he nominated Mr. Delamater
for Governor. All our readers have had
abundant opportunity to see it, and as
even a few lines of space is valuable. it
will give place to other matter for th.

High Praise for the Statc College.
At the monthly meeting of the Berks
county Agricultural society, held in the
court house in Reading, on Saturday,
the 5th inst., the report of Messrs.
Wellington Van Reed, Dr. Benjamin
E. Dry and Cyrus T. Fox, the dele-
gates of the society appointed to at-
tend the annual meeting of the Penn-
sylvania State College, was received.
The delegates in ‘the report have the
following to say concerning the econdi-
tion and prospects of the college :
They arrived at the colleze on the
worning of Wednesday, June 25th,
and were cordially received by the
president, Dr. George W. Atherton.
After introductions to a number of
delegates from different sections ot
the State and members of the college
faculty, your committee started out up-
on an inspection of the grounds and
buildings. A number of improvements
have been made during the past three
years, and . with others contemplated
and soon to be accomplished itis evident
that the Pennsylvania State College
will be justiy entitled to rank with the
best institutions of learning in the land.
The main buildiog bas undergone nu-
merous alteration:, and is now eli
adapted to its purposes. Other build-
ings have been provided for special
branches. There is an extensive chemi-
cal laboratory, fine agricultural experi-
ment station, commodious armory hall,
and other well adapted structures erected
within recent years. The institnton is
surrounded with numerous cottages,
some being of real elegant architectural
design, which are occupied by the pro-
fessors and students. There area num-
ber of elub boarding Louses, in which
students are comfortably provided for at
the small cost of $2.50 per week. The
farm connected with the college has
been broughtinto a fine state of cultiva-
tion, and is no longer the barren tract
that it was said to have been when the
site was first selected. A considerable
portion is devoted to experimental plots,
where hundreds of varieties of seeds
pertaining to the farm and garden and
including all novelties—are tested. The
results of the experiments are faithfully
recorded in the bulletins issued monthly,
and which can be had by writing for
them. Progressive farmers will find
much to interest them in these bulletins,
and will be glad to second the efforts
that are being made by the director of
the agricultural experiment station, Dr.
H. P. Armsby, under whose super-
vision the work of the station is con-
ducted and the bulletins are issued.
The college is now provided with a
faculty that wili compare favorably
with the roll of much older institutions.
There are twenty-three names on the
list, each professor being particularly
fitted to impart instruction in the branch
or branches in his or her department. At
the head is the president, George W.
Atherton, L L. D., who ably fills the
chair of political and social science, and
under whose. excellent administration
the college has made such rapid progress.
President Atherton has won the con-
fidence of the citizens of the common-
wealth in his management “{ the in-
stitution, and at the meeting of dele-
gates he was accorded full meed of praise
by the adoption of resolutions com-
mending his ability and skill. A num-
ber of delegates spoke eloquently in
attestation of all that the resolutions
implied. It is certainly gratifying to
the friends of education in Pennsylvania
to know that so much good is being ac-
complished at Pennsylvania State Col-
lege ; that its classes are full and that
annually siudents are graduated who are
prepared to enter any of the professions
and appear to advantage in whatever
walks in life their lots may be cast.
Botching tbe Census.
Boston Herald.
The trifling with the taking of the
census which is reported in several quar-
ters is very unfortunate. The indica-
tions are that the superintendent of the
census is an unfit man for his work, and
that he has allowed the men under him
to be much too of ten selected without r3-
gard to any qualification wuside from
politics. * Tt is a great pity that the tar-
iff question was allowed to enter into
consideration in making the appoint-
ment, and that one who had no claims
on the ground of breadth of attainment
or fitness for edministrative work should
have been put in a place so difficult and
responsible.
Crockedness in Huntingdon County's
Debt.
HuNTINGDON, July 16.—It has re-
cently been discovered that the indebt-
edness of this county is from thirty-five
to forty thousand dollars in excess of
what is shown by the last auditor's set-
tlement. It seems that the county com-
missioners ia their zeal to span each
stream in the county with an iron bridge
awarded contracts creating a debt of
many thousands of dollars in excess of
the constitutional limitation. The tax-
payers of the county and holders of
county bonds are thoroughly aroused,
and a full investigation is to be made
: at once.

She Lost Two Fingers.
A Connecticut Woman Badly Injured
by a Rabid Hog.
New York, July 15.—“She wa?
ten by a rabid hog.” That is what
Paul Gibier, ofthe Pasteur institike,
told a reporter yesterday afternoon, ra-
ferring to Mrs. Allen Rosenlibl, of Ham
burg, Conn. On the Fourth of July
Mrs. Rosenhhl, who is 26 vears of age.
went into the pen to see what was the
matter with one of the hogs. The beast
remained silent, except for a grunt now
and then, until young Mrs. Rosenlihl
began to examine his mouth. Then the
hog grabbed her hand, biting the second
and third fingers completely off. The
hog placidly swallowed the fingers and
before the woman could get away he
grabbed her again and hung on until
one of the farm hands responded to Mrs.
Rosenlibl’s cries and kicked the hog un~
{ til he released his hold.
The brute then drove Mrs. Rosenlihl
and the hired man out of the pen. They
rushed oat without closing the door of
the pen. The rahid animal then bit the
seven otherinhabhitants of the pen and
finally they all rushed out into the barn-
yard. A dozen cows stood contentedly
about the barnyard when the hogs made
the dash, but a moment later there was
a panic among them. Biting right and
lett the hogs all seemed eager to devour
the bovines. The pig which bit Mrs.
Rosenlihl was frothing at the mouth
and seemed to lead the rest in the
wild chase, while blood oozed from
wounds in each of the grunting animals,
Mrs. Roseniihl fainted, but before she
did so told the hired man to get the old
musket and shoot the beast. The firing
was lively around the neighbor-
hood, and before twenty minutes had
elapsed half a dozen farmers were chas-
ing hogs and cattle about the barn yard,
while bullets flew in all directions.
‘When the firing ceased dead hogs aud
cows were distributed about in a most
reckless manner. Mrs. Rosenlihl was
carried into the house and attended 'by
the village physician, but she grew so
nervous and excited that after several
daysher life was despaired of. She seemed
to beinsane, and would eat nothing but
a conglomeration of food which resem-
bled that which hogs eat. Yesterday
moraning she came to New York and
was inoculated. Dr. Gibier said thig
was the first time he had ever had &
patient who was bitten by a hog, but he.
had heard of meany such cases and all of"
them resulted fatally. He hopes Mrs,
Rosenlihl will pull through.

4 Clearfield Labor Leader States the
Case as He Sees It.
AvrTooNA, Pa. July 15—John R.
Paisley, a labor leader of the Clearfield
district, who says hespeaks for at least
2000 votes, in an interview to-day em-
phatically declared against Delamater
and the Boss Quay system of rule. He
said © “Our miners are disgusted with
Quavism, and think Pattison their
friend. A careful canvass reveals that
the general sentiment atnong the min ers
is in favor of Pattison. We do not ex-
pet anything from Quay or any personal:
representative he proposes to make Gov-
ernor. He is too closely allied to cor-
porations.
“Pattison favored a revision of the
Mining law, listened to our petitions,
and always had a practieal miner repre--
senting us in conference when referring
a question of this nature. As a repre-
sentative of a'numerous labor organiza-
tion I can truly say that the mining
vote will go to Robert KE. Pattison, Re~
publican miners as well as Democratic:
being against Delamater.’”
A Pattison Republican Club.
PiTTsBURG, Pa., July 15.—The re-
ports of wholesale Republican disaffec-
tion in Blair county were confirmed by
H. M. Brownlee,a representative Repub-
lican of Tyrone, who ‘was in Pittsburg
to-day. Mr. Brownlee says a Pattison
Club is now being organized'in Tyrone,
and the membership will be made up
entirely of Republicans: who have
hitherto never voted any other ticket.

Will Vote and Work for Pattison.
BUTLER, Pa., July 14.—The ranks of
the Pattison Republicans in Butler
county were strengthened to-day by the
accession of W. H. H. Riddle, an influ.
ential member of the Republican party.
Mr. Riddle says he cannot vote for
Delamater, but that he can vote for
Pattison with a clear conscience. He
will work vigorously for the Democratic
nominee %.21 0
Where the Campaign Boodle Will
Come From. °
Mr. Quay has $300,000 to stant with
in the Pennsylvania campaign. He also
relies on the Standard Oil Company
and the big coal corporations for further’
aid. The latter have a special griev-
ance against Mr. Pattison because of
his activity while Governor in procuring
leaislation compelling them to provide
for the safety of their men. Never be-
fore in American politics, not even
during the haleyon days of the Tweed
ring, have the objectionable and cor-
rupt elements been so solid in their sup-
port of one party.
Sad Accident.
At a small station called Mahantanzo,
this side of Dauphin, a voung girl ask-
ed permission of Mrs. Zerby to take the
8 months baby out for an airing. ‘She
consented, kissed the litile one and
placed it in the girl's arms. Result:
Girl walked off with baby along the rail-
road and after a while sat it down near
the track while she went off to look for
something she had lost. Baby crawled
on to the track, along came a train, and
they gathered up the remains of the lit-
tle one and sent them home in a rough
box.
The Buffalo Express (Rop.) in-
sists that as Matthew Stanley Quay is
Chairman of the Republican National
Committee and a Republican Senator
from Pennsylvania, ‘if he is innocent
he owes it to the Bepublican party to
vindicate himself. Dignified silence -
is no answer to such accusations.”
