General Haerixes has displaved a determination for selt preservation that is indeed admirable, in thus early announcing the names of ithe men whom he will call upon to help bim . carry on the administration of the af fairs of this common vealth, during his term of office as its Governor. Searcely had the slate makers time to make up a cabioet for him ‘ere he announced what he bad done himself. His action was a very wise one from one point of view, but from another it is readily believed that the Governor elect has made himself a political dead duck in the western Pennsylvania pond at least. Politically his choice can be said to be a strong one, for he bas called General FRANK REEDER, of Northampton county, to be Secretary of the Commonwealth, - Mr. REEDER being a persistent office seeker who has met with much success is neces garily strong with bis party bosses, else he would not be able to stay at the publie crib se lovg. This selection looks very much as if Senator QUAY had pressed the button and Geo. Has- mings had done the rest. In the selection of ex-Congressman Hexry Cray McCormick, of Williams: port, to be Attorney General, he has rewarded a man who has been a warm personal “friend for years. This ap- pointment is not destined to please Gro. B. OrnaDY, of Huntingdon, who went to all the trouble of taking Lovely out of Love's road to the judgeship in this district and strained his brain conjuring up that Pittsburg aphorism, with the hope that possibly this plum would fall into his basket. As Adjutant General he has selected TroMas J. Stewart, of Montgomery county, whose duty it hasalways been to hold the Grand Army to the Re- publican line. Mr. Stewart will make a popular official and his mili- tary record merits (?) all the honors his party can bestow upon him. Col. Jas. H. Lausert, of the Phila- delphia Press, is to be Insurance Com- missioner, a job he didn’t want, but then Mr. Quay's dislike for the Phila. delphia organ would never make it good politics to appoint its managing editor Secretary of the Commonwealth, the position he was lead to believe he would get. These are the principal places Gen. Hastings will have to fill and that every one of them has been given to men east of the Alleghenies makes a danger of an explosion some #here apparent. CTT. The Loaves and Fishes. Notwithstacding the fact that ramor says to the contrary, now that Gov. Braver and our energetic Republican friend Mary have both been turned “down for positions under the new State administration, there ought to be no trouble in securicg for Centre county more than a messengerahip and a clerk- ship at Harrisburg in addition to the two staff positions expected. All’ told there are 249 good appointments at the disposal of Gov. HASTINGS and his friends, exclusive of the beads of de- partments. These range in salaries from $860 to $3,500 and are divided up as follows : Executive department 6 ; Sec. Com- monwealth 16; Attorney-General 3; Auditor General 17; Sec. Internal Affairs 21; Adjutant General 13; In: surance Commissioner 6; Bank Exami- ner 8; Factory Inspector 13 ; Public Printer 1; Dairy and Food Commis: sioner 2; Public Buildings and Grounds 8; Coal Inspectors 18 ; State Library 8; Medical Examiner (first year) 6; Fish Commissioner (first year) 3; Senate Employees 32; House Employees 44 ; Senate Pages 10; House Pages 14. With all this patronage lying around loose and with a Governor, two members of the Legislature, a Republi- can Senator and a Republican Lon- gressman surely whe Republican workers of the coanty will get more than a mere smell of the political flesh pots. They have aright to look for and expect a goodly share of the _party’s patronage and the WATCHMAN earnestly bopes they will get it. TARE Good old Dr. James McCosH, who for so many years was the presi- dent of Princeton College, ie dead, and to-day there is not an alumus of the institution who will not seriously mourn the unique and tender hearted Scotchman who is no more, but in im- mortality. A truly remarkable man hie was who commanded the respect of everyone of the varied natures that at- tended Princeton ance. under h's guids The Remedy of Arbitration. The lawlessness that has become an incident of labor ‘strikes is doing the greatest injury to the labor interests. Workingmen, who t00 often have rea- son to complain of injustice and oppres: sion, forfeit their claim to public sym- pathy, and turn frien la into enemies, when they resort to violenze and be- come law breakers. This is the unfortunate and injarious position in which a largs portion of the strikers in the coke and bituminous coal regions have placed themselves. Their violent conduct has been subver- sive of public order upon which the safe ty and well being of society are based, constituting a defiance of the law that must be checked if law is to maintain its authority and government is to continue to exercise its functions. There is no orderly governmeat and no safety of life and -property when gangs of turbulent men claiming a grievance in regard to wages, dominate a region, as has been the case in the coke and bituminous sections,endanger- ing lite, destroying property, coming in colliston with the regularly coustituted guardiavs of law and order, and intimi- dating and restraining the liberty of those who want to work to relieve their necessities. The latter feature of such lawlessness, the forcible interference with the individual citizens right to labor if he wants to, is something that particularly should not and cannot be tolerated in this free country. The most deplorable and intolerable circumstance connected with this state of affairs is the fact that the chief actors in such scenes of disorder are usually an ignorant foreign population, who have been brought into the-country to com: pete with the labor of American Citi- zens. They turn upon and rend those who brought them here for the benefit that was expected to be derived from the low rate of wages for which it was thought they would be willing to work. It is not possible that the American people will allow the labor question to drift on in this disorderly and avarch- ical condition. Order must be brought out of this chaos. Not only is there the most urgent necessity for checking the disturbance incideot to this state of af- fairs, which threatens the orderly reg ulations of society and government, but the material welfare of the country cannot afford to have business inter rupted by labor disturbances which at one time may deprive the country of its supply of coal by a miners’ strike, and, at another, may close the avenues of transportation by the obstructive demonstration of railroad employes. A stop can be put to this industrial anarchy only by the exertion of gov- ernmental authority. In cases of con- flict between the interests of employes, which under the present loose method of settlement is attended with such wide-spread injury, a higher power, rep resenting the authority of the govern- ment, and aiming at an equitable ad- justment between the conflicting inter- ests should step in and require a sot tlement by arbitration. The labor trouble is drifting into such dangerous chape and assuming such wide propor- tions, carrying with it such a menace to the peace and good order of society, involving such disasirous consequences to the business of the country, and ev- idently so incapable of adjustment by the interest oppositely involved, that no other remedy can be looked for or relied upon to ensure practical and eat- isfactory results than arbitration insti- tuted by national legislation and en- forced by the general government, hav- ing for its main object the equal rights ot all parties concerned. ——One by one the old masters are called from the scenes of their triumphs and the world mourns their death. Not 50, however, because they are to be for gotten, for the names of those who have accomplished a work that bas once fastened itself upon the people will live as long as time lasts. The death of ANTON GREGOR RUBINSTEIN, the Russian composer and piarist, ¢n Tuesday, takes such an one from life. As long as music fills the soul of wor- tal will the memory of him find wel- come there through the harmony of his compositions: ————— —— Previous to the election the NieperingHAUs Tin-Plate Co., of St. Louis, promised its employees to start its works, at increased wages, if the Republican party was successful. Mott of them took the bait and voted the Republican ticket. The company is now trying to start up at a reduction of 25 per cent and its men, like other idiots who voted against their convic- tion because they believed every fool lie that wds told them, are realizing how much the promise of a protected Republican manufacturer amounts tc.

Profuse promises of better wages and a liberal supply of rot-gut increased the Republican vote very largely ahout that ore mine and as the free whisky is about run out and its effects wore off the men are wakening up to discover, as political idiots elsewhere are exper- iencing, how easily some people are fooled and what asses others can make of themselves. Notwithstanding the overwhelming Republican victory they are still working for eighty cents a day. ee — —— The death of Senator GEORGE Ross, of Doylestown, Bucks county, is a sad loss to the community in which be had attained prominence as a | lawyer and Democratic leader.

The Famous Rnssian Composer Died of Hear Disease Yesterday Morning—Sketch of Hig Liye. Sp. PETERSBURG, Nov. 20,— Anton Gregor Rubinstein, the famous Russian composer. and pianist, died at Peterhoff pear this city, this morning. The cause of his death was heart disease. Rubinstein was "born at Wechwoty- nez on the frontier of Roumania, Nov. 30. 1830. As a child he was taken to Moscow and studied the piano under Alexis Villoing. His first appearance in public was made when he was only 8 years of age. At 10 years Rubinstein went with his teacher to Paris, where he remained for two years, his per- formance at several concerts winning for him the advice and encouragement of Liszt. Rubinstein next visited England, Sweden and Germany, and mn Berlin he stndied composition under Dehn. Having completed his cours: of instruc. tion, Rubinstein devoted himself for some time to teaching in Berlin and la- ter to teaching in Vienna. He retarn- ed to Russia later on and was appoint- ed pianist to the Grand Duchess Helena. Subsequently he became director of the musical concerts of the Russian Musical society. Rubinstein visited the United States in 1872-73. Among the dead composer's operas are “Dimitri Donski,” “Les Chassenrs Siberiena,” “La Vengeance,” “Tom Le Fou,” “Les Enfants des Bruyeres,” «Lalla Rookh,” “Nero” and “Ivan Kalashorikeff.” The jubilee of Ru: binstein's public service was celebrated in St. Petersburg Nov. 18, 1889. Since 1867 Rubinstein has held no office, spending his time in traveling and composing. In 1869 Alexander II, ennobled the composer and 1877 France decorated him with the cross of the Legion of Honor. ————— RATS Death of Senator Ross. DoyLestowN, Nov. 19.—State Sena: tor George Ross, died at his home here this mormng. Mr. Ross’ term would have expired with the present Legis. lature. He was not a candidate for re election. Mr. Ross was horn in Doylestown, August 25 1841. He graduated from Princeton College in 1864, and prac- ticed law ever since in Bucks and neigh- boring counties. He was a member of the State Constitutional Convention in 1873 ; was elected to the State Senate in 1886 and re-elected in 1890. He was the Democratic candidate for Con- gress from the seventh district in 1884 and 1888. Hastings Names His Men. The Governor-Eleci Ends all Speculation on His Cabinet — Reeder Takes Harrity's Place.—Me- Cormick to Be Attorney General, Lambert In surance Commissioner, Stewart Adjutant Gen- eral, Beitler Private Secretary. ; It was stated Monday on what seems to be unquestionable authority that Gov- ornor-elect Hastings bad decided to end all speculation about his “Cabinet” and two other offices, having made up his mind to appoint the following : Secretary of the Commonwealth, Gen- eral Frank Reeder, of Northampton county. Attorney General, Henry Clay Me- Cormick, of Lvconiing county. Adjutant General, Colonel Thomas J. Stewart, of Montgomery county. Insurance Commissioner, Colonel Jas. H. Lambert, of Philadelphia. Private Secretary, Lewis E. Beitler, of Philadelphia, now Secretary to Mayor Stuart. Although the formal official announce- ment of the foregoing appointments may not be made for weeks, the present her- alding of the names is fully authorized, and is practically as clinching as the final formality will be. Each of the five men has been requested by General Hastings to take the position, and each has accepted and knows that the matter is finally settled. Colonel Lambert, who, with Mr. Beitler, represents Philadel- hia among the selections, says he thinks that in view of all that has been pub- lished on the sabject it is but fair to himself to say that he has never been an applicant for any place under Gov- ernor Hastings, and he accepts the office of Insurance Commissioner at the earn- est request of the Governor-elect. Col- onel Lambert does not intend to relin- quish active work in his profession as a newspaper man. MAGEE WANTS HIS SHARE. The only other important appoiat- ment, not local, which the new ernor will be called upon to make at an early date is that of Superintendent of Barking, the salary of which is $4000 a year. Inasmuch as the +‘slate’’ publish- ed in Chris L. Magee’s Pittsburg organ had put State Chairman Gilkeson, of Bucks county, down for Insurance Com- missioner, and ex-State Treasurer John W. Morrison, of Allegheny county, for Superintendent of Banking, it is inferred that Mr. Magee will fight to shut out Uolonel Gilkeson, and secure Banking Superintendent Krumbhaar’s place for Mr. Morrison. In fact, by all accounts, it will take a deputyship or two in the Cabinet, in addition: to Bank Superin- tendent, to satisfy Mr. Magee and his friends. A. FT ONT Fitzsimmon's Fatal Blow. Syracuse, Nov. 19.—Con Riordan, the Australian heavyweight boxer, was accidentally knocked out by Bob Fitzsimmons Fridav night, acd yester- dav morning at 3.30 o'clock he died from the effects of the blow. Fuzsim- mons was arrested and released oo $10 000 bail. Riordan, who, ot late, has been drinking heavily, was employed about three weeks ago as sparring partner to the middleweight champion of the world. They were old friends, having first met in Australia, were both hail from. The body of Con Riordan, was laid in a vault at Oakwood cemetery this morninz. The funeral services were beld in Mallin's Morgue by Rev. A.S. Durston, Secretary of the local Y. M. C. A., and were attended by members of the company with which Fitzsim mons is traveling. Fitzsimmous and the rest of the company left later in the morning for Boston, where they will fill an engagement. PT ET Suddenly Collapsed. The Kribbs Libel Case Will Go to the Jury To- Day. : Crarioy, Pa., Nov. 21.—The case of the Commonwealth vs. J. J. Schick, of the “Jacksonian,” on the charge of libel on the oath of Congressman Kribbs, was resumed this morning. Owing to the ruling of the court the case turned upon the alleged actions of Kribbs and Grown in the Normal school, The defense gave these parties a terrible roasting, and showed up a bad state of affairs in connection with the management of the finances of the school. Bills for dining and wining the members of the legislature, it was al- leged, in connection with obtaining the appropriation, were rushed throngh and paid. This afternoon the case seemed to suddenly collapse, but three witnesses being called for the defense, and after presentation of law points the defense occupied the balance of the day in the argnment to the jury. The case will close tomorrow. PET, Japan Declines With Thanks, WasuINaToN, November 21. —Secre- tary Gresham has received a reply of the Japanese government to the offer of meditation made by our government be- tween Japan and China. While Secre- tary Gresham declines at present to give out the text of the reply received from Minister Dun, the United States repre- sentative at Tokio, the nature of that re- ply has been distinctly known in Wash- ington for several days, and has been plainly foreshadowed in the United Press dispatches. It is well known that Japan bas courteously declined the offer of the United States and delares that in view of its successive victories, overtures of peace must come from Chi- na. Eo AT Follows Closely on the Heels of the Re- publican Victory! Dusois, Pa., Nov. 16.—At a meet- ing ot the Bell, Lewis and Yates min- ers, at Reynoldsville this afternoon and here this evening, they decided to ac. cept for the present the reduction to 35 cents per ton. | I —— ETRE —— Now that the election is over prepare for winter and subsrite for, the WATCHMAN. se T——————— Gov- * Hard At Work. } President Cleveland laboring on his Annual Mes | sage to Congrees— Working all Day and Half i the Night. WasHINGTON, Nov. 20.—President Cleveland is exceedingly painstaking about every detail of bis public papers. He dictates nothing to a stenographer, but writes every word of his message, and consequently, as in the present case, when the meeting of Congress is less than a fortnight away and all bis secre- taries have not finished their reports, which the president reads from type-| written copies before he adopts their suggestion, constant manual labor is re- quired to have the wessage ready for presentation at the proper time. President Cleveland expects to see no visitors whatever until the message is out of his bands. He has no idea that’ he could complete it if he permitted himself to be interrupted. It engages his attention all day and more than half the night, and renders it easier than usual for him to bear the confinement which would otherwise be imperauive upon him just at present by reason of a rheumatic foot, which hes troubled him off and on for years, and which bas ren- dered walking almost an impossibility for several days past. The rumor toat the president had badly sprained his ankle on a pebble yesterday is easily disproved by the fact that he has not been able to walk out of doors for several days. nm ———— The Pop Gun Bills. Senator Harris Will Push Them as Soon as Possible. WASHINGTON, Nov. 18.—Whan the Senate reconvenes on the first Monday in next month, unless the program mapped out by certain Senators should be re-arranged, there will probably be a renewal of the discussion on the tariff question. Senator Harris states that he intends to push the supplemantal tariff bills for action as soon as possible after Congress convenes. which probably means imme. diately after the holiday recess. This in accord with the statements he | is i made on the floor of the Senate at the {ime these so-called “pop gun” tanff bills were referred to the finance com- mittee. The bills relating to free iron ore, coal and barbed wire came back from the finance committee practically as they went there, but the bill placing sugar on the free list was pigeon holed and a substitute was reported, placing a uniform duty of forty per cent on all sugars, thereby doing away with the differential one-eighth duty that oper- ates to the advantage of the refiner, and that the discriminating one-tenth daty that operates against the German ex- porter. CTT Over Four Hundred Deaths. Rove, November 20.—The deaths caused by the earthquake in southern Italy and northern Italy are now koown to number more than four hun- dred killed. Forty-eight bodies have been recovered from the ruins of the church, and several bodies are still under the fallen walle. EET — ADDITIONAL LOCALS. — The Dubbs faction of the Evan- gelical church held its first communion service at Millneim on Sunday. — Earl, a 6 year old son of Samuel Reeder, of Mill Hall, died of membra- neous croup on Saturday night and was buried Monday. —On last Tuesday morning as Fred Burd, an 18 year old son of Frank Bard, of Aaronsburg, was driving a load of amber from Wolfe's Store to Coburn, the brake lever slipped and he fell under the wagon. One of the Lack wheels ran over his chest. The young man, though seriously burt, got up and walked back to his employer Haine’s where a ph ysi- cian was sent for. The casing of his lungs was found to be broken and in- ternal injuries sustained which will probably end in his death. The acei- dent occurred on Sholl’s hill. PLEASANT GAP SCOURGED BY DIPH- THERIA.—That dread contagion diph- theria has become prevalent at Pleasant Gap and is spreading with alarming rapidity. On Sunday Wilbur Irvin, a bright little boy fell a victim to it. On Tuesday a three year old daughter of H. G. Meese, of Lauvertown, near by, died and an older child is not expected to re- cover from the disease. Mr. Meese is the school teacher at the Springs and did not have any idea that his little daughter was suffering with diphtheria until D. J. Y. Dale, of Lemont, was called on Monday when it was too late. Wednesday morning Ira, the five year old son of David Rimey died with the same affliction, That same morn- ing the public schools were closed and will remain so until the danger of its spreading is over. «Drzay Loves’--Is the title uf a cute little poetical work of Mr. H. T Eckert, of Sunbury, which has just been published. The author displays a re- markable genius in the composition of his verses the sentiment of which are truly original. ‘Dream Loves” is the principal work in the book, but besides it are a number of miscellaneous poems from Mr. Eckerts’ pen. Many of his productions have been published in the leading magazines and newspapers, yet this is the first compilation of his own work by himself. “Night” and ‘Are we Immortal” are two poem$ through which he has captivated many who have read them. If his work meets with as much success as’ there is genius displayed in its composition we congratulate him on the royalties thal wi 11 accrue. DenorNiNG Mirce Cows Nor HARM- FUL.—The report of the experiments on the effect dehorning has on milch cows has been sent out by The Pennsylvania State College Agricultural Mxperiment Station, and is substantially as follows : “The period of experimentation upon the herd of guernsey cows recently de- horned at State College has been finished and some interesting results have been noticed. On fifteen cows an examination of the amount of butter fat contained in the milk yielded for the two days, in- cluding the days of dehorning and the following day, shows a loss of 227-100 pounds of butter. fat, or equivalant to 93-100 per cent. of the yield for the two days. A similar examination tor the subsequent two days shows that the average yield for the specified time is the same as the average yield for the five days preceding the date of deborning. These results show conclusively that the effect of dehorning upon the flow of milk is practically unnoticeable and the great benefits to be derived from such an operation make it highly commend- able to all farmers.” THANKSGIVING, 1894. —To the friends of the Huntingdon Home for Orphan and Friendless Children : : Every Thanksgiving ‘day for vears past you have remembered the Home, and the managers feel that you will be willing to help “just a little’” this year, when you have the fact brought to your knowledge that the needs of the Home are very pressing. The hard times have brought more little ones under the care of the Home than ordinarily, and thus the expenses have been increased. And uow at the beginning of the winter, the treasury is empty. The contributions last Thanks. giving were not quite sufficient to pay for the heating plant which was put in, and therefore the small surplus fund vas exhausted in completing the pay- nent for the heating. A small contribution, as a Thanks- giting offering, from each friend of the Houe is earnestly requested in order thatthe beneficial work may be contin- ued. If the general community could realize wht benefits and comforts are bestoved on many poor little child waifs, from ay to day and from week to week, the number of friends to the Home would greatly increase. Contrbutions can be sent to the Home, or to J.R, Simpson, Treasurer, Hunt- ingdon, Pa. Forest RESERVES IN PENNSYL- vaNTA.—The State forestry commission is perseverng in its effort to protect the vast woodet areas of our State from the devastatingax and in this way to pro- duce a beneicial effect on climatic con- ditions, partilly provide against sudden floods and ue growing frequency of drouths as wdl as to protect in a certain degree by mantaining a natural retreat for game and sh. Dr. J. T. Rthrock has been: giving the matter his #tention for several years. He looks upon be clearing of our forests as an action tht will have more than one disastrous reult to our people. The story of the effict vast wooded areas have in breakingthe force of the winds, absorbing the rin fall and holding it against future dryseasons is too old an ove to be retold hee, but primarily it is the one which Dr. Rothrock would re- tell were you to ash his reasons for be- ing so deeply concened in the preserva- tion of our forests. Ie has embodied his suggestions in a mesure which he bas framed, and will prsent the bill to a conference of state oficials to be held in Harrisburg in the nea future. This bill provides for the appoinment by the gov- ernor of a commissior whose duty it shall be to locate three tate forestry res- ervations within the ommonwealth ; one to be in Pike, Monre, Luzerne and Lackawanna counties ; aother in Sulli- van, Lycoming, Clinton, Jentre or Pot- ter counties, and the thirdin Clearfield Elk, Cameron, McKean o Forest coun. ties. Bach of these reservaions isto be one continuous area, whch may be taken from one or more of he counties indicated. The lands selected shall be £ a char- acter suited to the growth of ees and that at least fifty per cent. of tio area of auch reservation shall have an altitude of not less than 800 feet above te level of the sea. The commission shallbe au- thorized to purchase the lands at, price not exceeding $2 an acro., Failingto ac- complish this, the commission shallhave power to condemn these lands andsub- jeet them to such conditions as the leally constituted authorities may impose.
