BY P. GRAY MEEK. Ink Slings. —The selfish, conceited egotist never dreams that there are a few billion others in the world. —Young man, if you can’t make an opening for yourself in any other way take a pick and shovel. —Probably it might warm you up these cold days if you would just think that the time when the lawn mower will be a good thing to push along is drawing nigh. - —If the ground-hog didn’t see his shad- ow yesterday it was hecause his eye-wink- ers were frozen together and he couldn’t focus his optics on the phantom that would certainly have frightened him back into his hole. —Do you think for a minute, Mr. QUAY, that you are in it? If you do, you are chasing rain-bows, sure as fate. You've been a dandy in your day; but you're a dead one, now, dear QUAY, and you might as well go South and take a skate. —The Irish must have been out in force in New York, Monday evening, when the Sixty-ninth regiment of that city ar- rived at home. Itis New York’s famous Irish organization that has been kept up to a high standard since before the Civil war. —What consummate nerve, this man GoMEZ displays. The idea of wanting $60,000,000 as the price for having his thirty-thousand Cuban insurgents lay down their arms. Why MAXIMo0, don’t you know we are buying Philippine ‘‘yel- low bellies’’ at $2 a head. —It is supposed to have required the sympathetic negative attraction of the triune polar stream to make KEELY’S motor go. Granting that it did, it was, neverthe- less, the positive extractive propensity of the promoter for the damphoolish that made the money of the stock holders go. -—That eighty-four year old Chestertown, Md., individual who has figured out that it has cost him just $2,500 to live has laid himself open to the suspicion that probably some of his provender was secured after dark from neighboring hen roosts. The idea of a man living for $30 a year seems incredible, unless he has been getting a few things that he hasn’t paid for. —MAXIMO GOMEZ, who is still in com- mand of that Cuban army, wants $60,000,- 000 as the price of disbanding. Why pay him a cent? It cost the United States hundreds of millions and scores of lives - just to help GOMEZ and his people to liber- ty and the impudence of his asking to be paid to accept it is more than the good na- ture of our people should tolerate. * GOMEZ needs a few good kicks with a frozen boot to bring him to his senses. —The dowager empress of China is car- rying on business with a high hand in gov- ernment circles in the empire. She has the Emperor locked up in his palace and is reported to have named a successor for him. There can be no question about her wearing the pants, all right enough, but is it to be wondered at when the Emperor has taken to training goats and monkeys. Probably Le smelled a mouse and is look- ing out for a job with an American circus enterprise after he is bounced as the ruler of China. —The bill that was introduced in the House, on Tuesday, appropriating $2,000, - 000 for the completion of the new capital at Harrisburg carries its best feature in the naming of former Governor ROBERT E. PATTISON as a member of the new building commission. The people of the State will sanction even the appropriation of two million to complete a half-a-million build- ing, so long as PATTISON is there to watch it. Where he is there can be no steals and and that is all the people have to fear. —The latest is that BENJAMIN HARRI- SON has been kicking around up on the shelf on which he has been laid with other former Presidents and has given voice to these words concerning McKINLEY’S poli- cy of imperialism: ‘Mr. McKINLEY has a bear by the tail and does not know how ‘to let go.”” Possibly BENJAMIN is right, but even if he is the President’s predicament is not nearly as hair raising as was IKE Zim- MERMAN’S, the Nittany valley hunter, be- cause in his case the relative positions of the man and hear were reversed. —General MILES is still after the villains who furnished embalmed beef to the sol- diers. He asserts that he has ‘‘overwhelm- ing proof that the embalmed beef was treated with chemicals to preserve it.” Should he prove his assertion and the new army bill, recruiting our army up to one hundred thousand men, become a law it can be expected that there will be some difficulty in finding men who would be willing to soldier. If so little is thought of them that in battle they are forced to subsist on embalmed beef what might they not expect as rations in times of peace? —The Rt. Hon. ARTHUR J. BALFOUR, first lord of the treasury and leader of the ministerialists in the English house of Com- mons, got up in Manchester, Monday even- ing, and told his constituents that England and America are really in love. It is no school-boy, calf love, either, it is the real genuine, sincere thing that not even a high tariff on this side, that would effect English commerce, would destroy. When Johnny Bull and Miss Columbia get together, as Sir ARTHUR says they will, the twenty-million Philippine ‘‘yellow-hellies won’t be a cir- cumstance to the hosts that will be added to our census. enacradi Ta ( A VOL. 44 STATE RIGHTS AN D FEDERAL UNION. Personal Registration. Whatever else the Democrats in the Leg- islature may determine to do in the matter of ballot reform, they should not neglect or fail to insist upon amendments making the personal ‘registration of voters neces- sary in cities of the first and second class. It is in the registration of voters that the basis of nearly all the frauds that disgrace the election in this Commonwealth exist, and its correction should be the first and great object of those who have in view the changing of our election laws. Give us an honest registration of voters in the cities of, the State and then limit the privilege of voting to those registered and more than half the wrongs now committed against the purity of the ballot will be prevented. As long as padded registry lists are allowed, and as long as it is permissible for a regis- tration assessor to place upon the voting list such names as may be furnished him, just so long will repeating flourish and the long train of election frauds and abuses, we now have to complain of but submit te, continue and thrive. While an honest registration will not prevent impersonation, bribery or false counting, it will at least aid in preventing repeating and reduce the opportunities to commit other wrongs to a minimum. It will take from corrupt election boards the power to add to the number of votes actually cast, or toswell returns to suit the demands of those whose tools they are. New York city has had a personal regis- tration law for years, and although its pop- ulation is of such a character that the de- bauchery of the ballot box ought to be an easy job, we doubt if any place in the en- tire country has more honest elections or less cause for complaint of fraudulent vot- ing or false returns. In fact in all of that great city there are fewer election contests, fewer charges of corruption and fewer ar- rests for frauds at the polls or in the re- turns, than there is in a single ward of the city of Philadelphia. And this, for the reason that no excuse for attempting to vote is given any man who has not proven his right to do so at the time of register- ing. Under our loose system of registering voters, any name that any ward heeler de- sires, can be placed upon the voting list. This, with a tax receipt, gives him the right to vote. Tax receipts are hought in Philadelphia by the thousands for fifty cents a piece, and always in the same names that have been placed upon the reg- istry. When election day comes the indi- vidual who has helped to pad the registry list is given tax receipts to correspond with the names he has had placed upon it and is started out to find some one who will as- sume this name long enough to cast the vote. This is easily done. Loungers, loaf- ers and criminals are plenty; villains who are waiting for the chances and pay repeat- ing brings, have their regular rendezvous and the political heeler who has prepared them for this kind of work knows exactly where to find them. He has a tax receipt for Joux JoNES. JOHN JONES has been placed upon the registry; out of the bum- mers who are waiting for the job he picks a JOHN JONES and marches him up to the polls. The registry and the tax receipt both say he can vote, and into the booth with his, man goes the heeler and into the box the ballot, and then this JOHN JONES is ready to be ABRAM RIGHTFIELD in another ‘‘diwision,’’ and the heeler is on his way for another voter of the same kind. And so it goes. And so it will go until we get our registery of voters down to those, and those only, who have a right to vote. In the country districts such a thing as a padded registry list is unknown, and could not be made. Every voter in a district is known to every other voter, and an effort to place upon the registry or to vote an in- dividual not a qualified resident of the dis- trict would be an impossibility. Conse- quently the same system of registration necessary to secure honest results in the large cities is not needed in the country districts. Personal registration is needed in the cities and Members of the Legislature should make this one of the election re- forms of the present session. Without this, all other efforts will prove miserable failures. ——The appointment of Dr. Joun V. SHOEMAKER, head of the Medico-Chirur- gical college in Philadelphia’and one of the most eminent medical men in the world, to be surgeon general of the National Guard of Pennsylvania, is one which Gov- ernor STONE has made that will certainly meet the approbation of the people of the State. Dr. SHOEMAKER is an aggressive worker in his profession and a man in whose care the health of our Guard will be most zealously looked after. Had ALGER but had the good sense to send Dr. SHOE- MAKER to Chicamauga, instead of HUIDE- KOPER, there would not have been such a woeful story of disease and death to go down with the history of that fearful place. —~—Subscribe for the WATCHMAN. BELLEFONTE, PA. Trying to Save Quay. The extraordinary efforts now heing made by the retainers of the Republican machine in the Legislature to pass the McCARRELL bill in time for Senator QUAY to receive the benefit of its provisions, when his trial comes on, shows the straits the ‘‘old man’’ is in and the work that is deemed necessary to secure his acquittal. It is an acknowledgment that under ex- isting laws, which have been in force since the construction of the Com- monwealth, there is little hope of an ae- quittal; an acknowledgment that must be taken as an admission of guilt, for if he is not guilty there is no need to fear a con- viction and if there was no fear of convie- tion there would be no need for special ef- forts now being made to change the law a few days prior to his trial. That the bill now before the Legislature is intended specially to apply to the case of Senator QUAY and to give him advantages never before allowed an individual under indictment in this State, is not to be de- nied. The fact that the friends of the bill refused to accept an amendment that its provisions shall not apply to cases in which indictments have already been found, is. proof of this. They want the bill espec- ially for his benefit and they want it badly, and the fact that they are so ex- tremely anxious about it only convinces the public the more of his actual guilt, and emphasizes the righteousness of the con- viction that is alinost certain to come. If there is any reason why Senator QUAY should be made an exception of when it comes to a criminal trial; why the law should be changed to suit his extremities: why he should be treated with more con- sideration or tried under different provis- ions of law from those that have been ap- plied in similar cases ever since law was enforced in this community, then there is reason for the immediate passage of this bill. If he has no right to claim more than others; if the action of our Legislators and the administration of our laws by the courts are to know no distinction between men; if justice is to be equally meted out to rich and poor, to great and small, alike, then there is no reason under the sun why this bill should be rushed through in time to assist Senator QUAY in escaping justice. Looking to the Wrong Source. If Senator QUAY expects to be elected to the United States Senate tosucceed himself by the aid of Democratic votes, then Sena- tor QUAY will never again be his own suc- cessor. There may be differences of opin- ion among Democrats as to who should be elected, provided it is found impossible to secure enough votes to make the success of Hon. GEo0. A. JENKS certain, but there is no difference of belief or opinion among them as to who should NoT BE elected, and that is the Hon. MATTHEW STANLEY QUAY. Among the eighty-seven Demo- crats in the House and Senate, there is not one, who, under any circumstances that may arise, could be induced to violate the wishes and demands of his constituents or disgrace his family, friends and record, hy voting for Senator QUAY. They know that the great effort of the party, for years, has been to defeat QUAY and QUAYism. They feel that the regeneration of Democ- racy and the redemption of the State de- pends upon this result and no matter what their individual opinions may be; no mat- ser how strong personal antipathies may crop out; no matter what personal pre- dilections may be required, when the time comes to unite on some one else, even if that time should come, it will be done unanimously and with a spirit that will show the determination of every Democrat to stand as a united body in support of the wishes of the party and in defence of the honor and good name of the State. There will be no votes for Mr. QUAY among the Democrats at Harrisburg this winter. Men who would have committed such a crime against public opinion and party demands were left at home last fall. ——The HILL bill, which kas just been reported in the House by the committee on coinage, weights and measures, contem- plates the final stab at silver and greenbacks. By the provisions of the bill both will be in effect wiped out as money and gold will be left alone in its sovereignty. Another bad feature of the bill is the provision re- pealing the law which prohibits national banking associations from - withdrawing from circulation more than three millions in any month. If this clause is repealed it will make it possible for national banks of the country to contract the onrrency at pleasure and prostrate business just when- ever it suits their greed to do it. ——The indecent carousals of drunken American soldiers at Havana should be promptly ended by most drastic punish- ment. The eyes of the world are riveted on the American soldier; captivated by his daring valor in battle and his tenderness when the carnage is o'er, so that the high honor of our privates is far too dear to be clouded by the libations of 4 few who have no sense of it. How Can It Be Done? The Philadelphia Zimes and Record are both unanimous in their belief and opinion that the proper thing for the Democrats, at Harrisburg, to do is to unite on some Independent, who will do credit to the position, and join with the Inde- pendent Republicans in electing him United States Senator. Where a single mind fixes and controls the sentiments or policy of an organization or establishment, as does COL. MCCLURE that of the Times, or Mr. THEO- DORE WRIGHT that of the Record, it is an easy matter to have unanimity in the ex- pression of any views that may be present- ed or unanimous support for any policy or principle desired. If on either of these journals there were eighty-seven well meaning, responsible and independent editors, each one feeling that he would be held individually re- sponsible for the views expressed, and the policy advocated, united action, harmoni- ous thought and a solid front on any ques- tion might not he so easily secured. The writer is free to confess that his views, as to what the better policy for the Democratic Representatives to pursue would be, taking into account the welfare of the State and future party advantages, are in warm accord with those expressed by the two journals. We doubt if a Democrat can be elected to the United States Senate. We know that the great de- sire of the people, and the imperative de- mand of the Democratic masses is that Senator QUAY be defeated. We believe that in the end, unless a fusion of the Democrats and Independents is made, that Senator QUAY or some one else, equally as obnoxious to the Democracy and as danger- ous to good government, will ‘be chosen ; and to prevent this, we would be willing to unite, in the support of JOHN WANAMAK- ER, HENRY McCoRrMICK, General KOONTZ or any other Independent whose ideas and acts would not be dominated by QUAY, and whose political interests and future success would depend upon the effectiveness of his opposition to QUAYism and QUAY-methods. In this way we would bring confusion to the enemy and through that confusion ultimately secure the success of the Dem- ; Qeracy and better and purer government for Pennsylvania. ie But there are eighty-seven Democrats in the Legislature. All of these eighty-seven may not look at this matter in the same light that we do. They have their opinions and must be credited with being just as honest and conscientious in them, as are those who think differently. Some of! them think one way, others another, and to get eighty-seven men to think, and act, and work in unison on so important a question, is no easy undertaking. Unless this is done Mr. QUAY is almost certain to succeed himself, either personally or by proxy. If it can be done there is no danger that either he or one who will con- tinue his corrupt methods and dictatorial rule will fill the position again. It is an easy thing to say what should be done, but how is it to be accomplished ? when those who are needed and expected to do it have different views as to the man- ner in which it should be undertaken, and widely different ideas as to the means that should be resorted to and the extent to which they should go to secure that for which they are all struggling. ’ Tell us how to convince the Democrat who is opposed to fusion that he is wrong, and the dead-lock can be ended, Mr. QUAY defeated, and the Republican machine smashed beyond hope of repair, inside of a week, or there is neither honesty of purpose nor truth in the professions of those who are known as Independents. ——If ic be true that there is to be a fight made on Col. D. F. FORTNEY, who has been nominated by the Democrats of the South ward to succeed himself on the board of directors of the Bellefonte public schools, it certainly shows the short sight- edness and selfish motives of those who are organizing against him. While Col. Fort- NEY’S actions in the selection of teachers have probably not suited some folks his active interest at all times in matters of public instruction and his undoubted qual- ification for the position he so acceptably fills makes it the duty of every voter of that ward to lay aside any personal griev- ance that they have and support him for the general good. Though he has never received a cent for the work he has done his interest in our public schools has brought him to a position of eminence, not only in the county, but throughout the State. It is doubtful if another man could be found in Bellefonte to do what he has done and it ill becomes anyone to allow personal feelings to surmount public in- terests at this time. It is not often that the WATCHMAN assumes to point out the way at local elections, but it hopes that the better judgment of the people of the South ward will prevail to save Col. FORNTEY to the work that he has done so ably for all. —Cripple Creek has struck a gold bonan- za that is calculated to drain the Klondike of its crippled miners, when they hear of the new find. , FEBRUARY 3, 1899. Failures as Estimators. As guessers our county commissioners don’t appear to he much more of a success than they do as financial managers. Last year they guessed, or estimated, that the *‘needed funds for all county expenditures for 1898’ would be $50,000, but their statement shows that it cost $63,239.11, or about one-fourth more than the people were told it would cost, to run the county. And this cannot be charged to the repairs made to county buildings or the erec- tion of new bridges. For these purposes $10,000 was: specified in that estimate of whiéh amount $7,450.73 was expended, making their guess $15,788.48 short of the actual outlay. As guessers they don’t seem to be near the success that they do as time-killers. Last year the commissioners estimated that the $50,000 would meet all expenses and the facts show that it took over thir- teen thousand dollars additional to meet the bills. For the coming year they say it will cost $3,000 more than it did the past year, so we can look out for an expenditure of over $66,000. And to meet this there is but $54,000 of income. How long can it be, tax-payers, until more millage will be required or increased valuations resorted to? More Taxes or Less Expenditure. Increased valuations or an increase tax- levy isa condition hut a short distance abead for the people of this county unless a radi- cal change is made in the management of county affairs. According to the auditor’s showing, for the past year, it cost $63,- 239.11 to meet the ordinary county ex- penditures, while the total tax-levy for all purposes amounts to but $54,455.19. Since the present board of commissioners have taken charge of matters a half mill has been added to the tax-levy and valua- tions run up to the highest point. With this kind of business management, judging from the showing made by their annual statement, it will take another increase in the millage and a continnation of the high valuations both to keep the increase equal to the outlay. Fifty-four thousand dollars of a tax-levy, with commissions for collect- ing and exonerations deducted, won’t pay $63,000.90 dollars of expenditures, °F Drifting Toward Free Trade. From the Butler Democratic Herald. Some of the radical sheets that have been: exploiting the falacy that the foreigner pays the tax, are just now very loud in proclaiming the fact that the exports of manufactured goods for the year 1898 ex- ceed the imports by 30 per cent. The fall- ing off in imports since 1893 is something like $130,000,000 and if, as it is claimed, the balance is to remain in our favor with every indication of increasing there will be a corresponding reduction in the reve- nues from that source and the government will be reduced to the expedient of levy- ing a tariff duty as high as the wall of China with about as much prospect of get- ting sufficient revenue as there is of squeez- ing blood out of a turnip. A Citizen Whose Citizenship is Valuable. From the Huntingdon News. For the nineteenth time Mr. A. J. Cas- satt, the great railway builder and di- rector, has been selected as road supervisor of Lower Merion township, Montgomery county. There is a lesson in this, says the Philadelphia Press, that should interest other men of the State who, like Mr. Cas- sat, are possessed of wealth and high posi- tion, and who pass by the duty that each owes to his immediate neighborhood. Some of the best and ablest men do not take part part in the improvements and government of affairs that pertain to good citizenship, with the result that profession- al ward workers and township politicians are left to run things to suit themselves. Out of this grows much of the woe in pub- lic affairs. Massachusetts Democrats Against Im- perialism. : From the Boston Post. The Democratic state committee, has acted wisely in taking a definite and em- phbatic stand against the policy of im- perialism. The resolution adopted at the meeting of that body declares ‘‘that the Democratic state committee of Massachu- setts is opposed to the acquisition of any territory as part of the United States, un- less by consent of the inhabitants thereof.’ This is Democratic doctrine, pure and simple. It recognizes the authority of the Declaration of Independence, of the con- stitution, of the traditions of free govern- ment and human rights which have come down to us from the fathers. Came to His Senses Too Late. From the Elk county Democrat, Pitiful indeed is the case of one Dennis McCarty. over in Mahanoy City, who, after the funeral of his mother whom he had brutally murdered, awakes to the full real- ization of the enormity of his crime, and implores the authorities to hang him to the nearest lamp post. And all things con- sidered, the most logical conclusion of the whole matter is that the wish of the inhu- man wretch should be complied with. Would You Have Taken Them ? From the Milton Record. Proceedings in the Montana Legislature were diversified last week when a Senator exhibited thirty-one thousand dollar bills, and declared they had been offered him for his vote, by a wealthy man named Clark, who wants to be United States Senator. How quickly an incident of that sort makes one think of Pennsylvania. Spawls from the Keystone. —E. A.

The Lackawanna lumber company is negotiating the purchase of the same. —Mrs. Theresa Baum, sister of Mrs. Joseph Megill, of Bedford, while yawning recently dislocated her lower jaw. The dislocation was readily reduced when the muscles were relaxed by the use of an anesthetic. —George James, a Renovo lumberman, and several pards filled up on booze and attempted to run things in their own way in Williams- port Saturday. Finally the trio began quar- reling over the possession of a revolver. A policeman succeeded in arresting James, who was fined $10 and costs. —Three men are now engaged in counting the poles in Williamsport liable to the ordi- nance providing for the taxing of poles. There are about 3,000 of the poles in the city subject to a tax of 50 cents each. They are spread over 75 miles of streets and alleys and it will take several weeks to complete the work. —W. 8. Douglass, storekeeper in the P. R. R. shops at Altoona; and one of the oldest and best known residents of that city, died suddenly at his home at5 o’clock Monday morning. He had attended church Sunday night and was then seemingly in good health. Heart disease is supposed to have caused his death. —Ex-Gov. Hastings has received an opin- ion from judge advocate general Lieber, U. S. A., in which he decides that soldiers of the war with Spain may be buried in the National cemetery at Gettysburg. Several soldiers from southern and western States who died-at camp Meade were buried in the Gettysburg cemetery. —Patton, an enterprising town of Cambria county, is hustling. for an opportunity to jump into the boots that Co. H, of the Fifth regiment at Johnstown recently vacated. But there is a good bit of uncertainty about the matter. A lot of Altoona’s energy is just now being concentrated in that direction, and perhaps one of these days Blair county will have four national guard organizations. —Twenty-six independent telephone com- panies, within a radius of many miles of Pittsburg, are negotiating to unite their in- terests. The proposition does not include a combination of capital which aggregates $5,- 000,000, each company to remain independent in that particular, but to give subscribers the advantage of various connections, which in- clude some 25,000 telephones, the lines ex- tending as far north as Erie and east to Altoona. —Peter Steinholtz, a Potter county man, was found half frozen and unconscious two miles up Dingman run, the other day, where he had been engaged in chopping wood. He had taken refuge in a tree from a pursuing black bear, and became so benumbed during the night that. he fell to the ground, where . he was found. Steinholtz cannot tell when the bear went away, for in the bitter cold, perched in a tree, he lost consciousness. —Near Bloomsburg Monday Richard Thompson, a Philadelphia salesman, and Edward Ralston .were driving down an icy hill. When the horse reached the bottom of the hill the animal shied just as he was ap- proaching a bridge and the wagon and the occupants were thrown over a steep embank- ment. Mr: Ralston alighted upon his head on a stone and was instantly killed. He was 36 years old and is survived by a wife and two children. Mr. Thompson was badly cut and bruised. —Secretary Edge, of the department of agriculture, in his annual report, says its various sub divisions have made continued and permanent progress. Commissioner Roth- rock has secured for the state over 50,000 acres of ‘woodland for reservation purposes. During the year, 1,132 herds, containing 14,- 437 animals, were tested with tuberculin and 1,348 animals costing on the average $22.61, condemned as suffering with tuberculosis dis- ease. The average annual amount expend- ed by Pennsylvania farmers for fertilizers is placed at $3,750,000. —Dave Allison and Ed. Louder were ar- rested on an Altoona street car Sunday even- ing. They had robbed a hardware store at Mifflintown, on Saturday night, and had their booty with them when arrested. It cousisted of two revolvers, two dozen silver knives, ten razors, three pairs horse clippers, six silver forks, eleven pairs scissors, three shears, eight dozen teaspoons, one and one- half dozen nut picks and two crackers, three keys, one switch key, one lot 32-calibre cartridges, seventy-eight pocket knives, two double-barrel shot guns, one single-barrel shot gun, one Winchester rifle and one lady’s watch. —John Hefferin, who died at Smethport recently, lived five months with a bullet in his heart, a fact that has created no little in- terestamong physicians and surgeons. The death of Hefferin, too, adds another feature to a sensational case which startled the public one night last September, when Lyman Bell, past 70 years of age, shot Hefferin for abusing his wife, who was Hefferin's daughter. Hefferin undertook to prevent Bell from whipping the woman when Bell turned on hi'a and he shot him. Bell was taken to the hospital and Hefferin to the county alms house, where he has since been almost insane over the shooting. —Those who think there are no wild cats in Venango county would change their opin- ion if they heard John Stevens, of Irwin township, tell of his experience with the animals. A few nights ago, while on his way home from Franklin with a gentleman friend, he came in contact with a pair of wild cats who were evidently looking for some- thing to devour. He was in a buggy, driving a gentle horse, when all of a sudden two wild cats sprang over a fence and followed him for half a mile. The animals ran up to the buggy one on one side and one on the other. Several times they acted as if about to spring into the buggy, but by wild gestures Mr. Stevens kept them from doing s0, and they did not leave him until he made several attempts to kill them with the butt end of the whip.
