At least it has determined to have no more DEVLIN about its doings. —Judge LOVE may not be quite as hap- py, but he has abundant reasons for know- ing more than he did before it struck him. —That the unpopularity of the McKIN- LEY administration has come to stay is evidenced by the fact that it has taken RooT. —They made a good fight, but they didn’t have that big hand with its magnet- ic back patting propensities to work on the country constituency. —When the Hague commission gets through making peace for the rest of the world it might try its bands on the Re- publicans of this county. —1It is not at all strange that Governor Hoa is able to raise the bristles on’ the hacks of the Republicans when he gets down to a political speech. —The wheat yield may be a failure in this county but since the breaking out of the HASTINGS-LOVE war there has been no sign of any shortage in the crop of old rye. 5 —So far even this hot wave has failed to create any perceptible warmth to the en- thusiasm with which the Quay followers receive the result of the late county con- vention. —The overwhelmingness of the vindi- cation that his ex-excellency is so jubilant over is somewhat overwhelmed by the fact that it consists of much less than one-third of the Republican vote of the county. —¢%There are them’ who will have op- portunities to discover that although Judge LOVE is not to be the boss of Centre county Republicanism he has still some say in the distribution of judicial favors and official pap. —When the Republican county conven- tion is ashamed or afraid to endorse its own state administration, what excuse can it make for asking any decent voter to en- dorse the ticket that that state administra- tion will dictate. —The Buffalo Express, Republican, leaves ALGER down as easily asit can by graciously saying ‘‘his job was too big for him.”” We appreciate the language of our contemporary and apply it to the vanquish- ed Republicans in Centre county, because of its fitness and gentleness. —Since Republicans, themselves, admit that everything possible has been done to make our war with Spain a party propa- ganda it is but natural for us to infer that the selection of so many of the new officers for the increased army from the South is a bid for a few electorals in that section. —1In addition to their other troubles the QUAY contingent must now begin the di- vision of thirty census enumeratorships among the*two hundred and forty appli- cants to whom these places were promised. While there will be both ‘‘addition’’ and “/division’’ about this work we doubt if the ‘‘silence’’ will be overwhelming when the job is done. —To many Republicans in the county, especially to those who have the independ- ence to think and act for themselves, the “D, H.” on the collar that boss DANIEL will expect worn will mean ‘‘Don’t Haveto.”” There are scores of Republicans in the county so situated that they don’t have to wear his collar and we doubt very much if they will belittle themselves by putting it on. —It is interesting to conjecture what the probable attitude of the Philadel- phia Press would have been had for- mer Governor HASTINGS not won out in his great ‘‘fight against ingratitude’ in Centre county. A year ago when he was licked to a stand still poor CLEM DALE was loaded with the disgrace and the former Governor was announced to have had noth- ing to do with the contest, but now since victory has perched on the banner that was trailed in the dust such a short time ago by this same ‘‘handful of political nobodies’ the Press means to have no misunderstand- ing as to whose victory it is. Probably it is better thus, for the future can hold no con- tention as to who put up the ‘‘real thing.” a0! z Al al Aj STATE RIGHTS AN D FEDERAL UNION. VOL. 44 Let Us Have the Whole Truth. Eh Governor PINGREE of Michigan resents the methods by which Secretary ALGER was dismissed from the Cabinet. In an in- terview published the other day he says that injustice has been done to the Gener- al, because the faults of the War Depart- ment were not committed by ALGER, but by McKINLEY, and that consequently the dismissal and humiliation of ALGER for the faults of McKINLEY was an injustice. In order that there may be no misunderstand- ing on the subject, Governor PINGREE names the things done by McKINLEY and attributed to ALGER. Among them is the appointment of a lot of nobodies who were the sons of somebody to positions in the army, to the detriment of the health and prejudice of the comfort of the soldiers. This is a specific accusation and comes from a responsible source. Itis universally agreed that the great number of lives lost by disease in the several camps in this country and in Cuba are attributable to ignorance and inefficiency of these officers. That being the case the man responsible for their appointment and situation in the serv- ice was. responsible for the lives sacrificed in the unsanitary camps. The burden of the complaints against ALGER was that he had done those things. It was said he lacked in executive capacity, and that he was wanting in understanding of military affairs. But these matters were of second- ary importance. It was the wail that came from the graves of the murdered soldiers that made the deep impression on the public mind. If McKINLEY attemps to ignore this charge it will become the duty of Governor PINGREE to produce his evidence, and that done the people of the country will do the rest. Whoever the witnesses are who know that WILLIAM McKINLEY ordered the appointments to be made should be brought forward. ALGER knows, to be sure, and self protection ought to make him a voluntary witness. But PINGREE de- clares that ALGER was not his informer. Then who was the man? The people have a right to know the facts and obviously McKINLEY will not réveal them. The bur- den of proof is en PINGREE. He must pro- duce the evidence or stand before the world branded as a falsifier and slanderer. Let us have the truth. ——The English whom we have been prone to believe proverbially dull have been quick witted enough to see through the great political joke that President Mec- KINLEY is trying to work off on the peo- ple of the United States. The London Times views ALGER’S resignation as ‘‘Mc- KINLEY’S bid for re-election,’’ which is to say that it was only brought about by re- quest. There is no gainsaying the accur- acy of this guess, but it needs no foreign discernment to our people. We all appre- ciate the joke and see through it so readily that the President will be surprised at how flat it falls. It is not likely that the mothers and fathers of this country will hurrah much over this eleventh hour rep- aration for the privations their sons who took up arms for their land have endured. Even if ALGER is to go the sad and dis- tressing effects of ALGERISM remain as an irreparable wrong that can never be effaced. The New Secretary of War. The new Secretary of War, ELIHU RooT, is an able lawyer, who for twenty years has been the legal champion of the trusts in New York. Heisan honest man, no doubt, but in 1873 he was the attorney for WILLIAM M. TWEED, and pending the trial of that distinguished defendant Judge NOAH Davis, a Republican jurist, rebuked him sharply for excessive zeal in behalf of his client. ‘‘It is better,”’ remarked Judge DAvis, ‘‘to be known as an honest man than a successful lawyer.” Maybe that is true, but it doesn’t guaran- tee as big an income or secure as much popular favor. ELIHU RooT earned the reputation of a successful lawyer by such methods as provoked Judge DAVIS to ad- minister the rebuke referred to and he has grown rich by fat fees from corporations. He doesn’t know anything about war and never held a public office except that of United States District Attorney and Mem- ber of the New York constitutional conven- tion which framed the poorest constitution ever inflicted on a people. But the big railroad corporations that hope to make millions out of the transportation of troops and munitions of war across the continent wanted him for Secretary of War and he has been appointed. Thus he proves that Judge DAVIS didn’t know. There are hundreds of men in this coun- try who are fitted by education and exper- ience for the office of Secretary of War but EL1iaU RooOT is not among them. If he had been appointed Attorney General or Solicit- or General there would have been no com- plaint. But naming him for the office of Secretary of War is absurd. = It is like em- ploying a brick-layer to repair a watch or a blacksmith to run a locomotive. How long will WILLIAM McKINLEY trifle with the American people ? AN RRR BELLEFONTE, PA., JULY 28, 1899. The Death of Ingersoll. No recent death in this country has aroused so many conflicting emotions as that of Colonel ROBERT G. INGERSOLL, of New York, the great Agnostic. Many admired his talents and despised the prin- ciples he advocated. But all who knew him loved the man because more than any other in public view he adhered to the principles of the golden rule. In his inter- course with men he was just. In his life he exemplified the highest standards of morality. His only fault was that he as- sailed cherished beliefs and ruthlessly at- tacked comforting faiths. Colonel INGERSOLL was a man of vast in- tellect, and no uncharity is meant when we say it was misapplied. In attacking the Christian religion he assailed the most po- tential element in modern civilization and to no intelligent purpose. That is to say attacking the beliefs that exist and have been instrumental in promoting happiness, contentment, and peace, he offered nothing in place of it, that promised the same re- sults. In that he was foolish. He asked people to disbelieve without reason, for if his theories had been correct, those who be- lieved would have been as well off as he. If they were not correct then those he de- luded were left poor indeed. INGERSOLL was a great phrase maker and a brilliant orator but even in that field he has left little that is immortal. Other men with less talent builded monuments in lit- erature that will endure forever. But he left nothing but a few funeral panegyrics that are preserved only in the memory of men. Why is this! Can it be a punishment for a professed contempt of things that are sacred to all other men. No citizen strove more zealously and industriously for the applause and good opinion of those about him. Yet when his body is put under the clods or his ashes consigned to the winds, there will be little to keep him in mem- ory. ——1If a lower strata of political dirt could be gotten down to than that of hunt- ing an obscure paper and dragging the names of respectable women through its columns in connection with questions that were figuring in the contest, we do not know what depth would have to be reached. Such efforts get below even where the im- agination of decent people could go. Some one reached that point, however, last week, down about Howard, and we presume he is senseless enough to imagine that such despicable work had great influence in de- termining the result. Alger and Others. General ALGER has reconsidered his de- termination expressed to remain in office as Secretary of War until the 1st of Janu- ary next and has resigned to take effect on the first of August This is gratifying to the extent that it gives hope of a partial release from ALGERism almost at once. We say partial release, for while McKINLEY and CORBIN remain in office, the release is not complete. Indeed it is not certain that the evils were not of their creation rather than his. But ALGER is going and that is some- thing to be thankful for. Since the be- ginning of the Spanish war, the war office in Washington has been nothing but a po- litical rendezvous. The lives of the sol- diers, the comfort of the army and the hepes of the people have been sacrificed to the exigencies of partisan politics. For this condition of affairs ALGER has been held responsible, whether justly or un- justly remains to be seen. His friends now say that the fault lies with others. Maybe that is true. But he ac- cepted the blame and is properly held up to the public execration that should follow the crimes against patriotism and humani- ty which were committed. ALGER is going but CORBIN remains and his presence is a menace to the safety of the troops in the trenches on the other side of the globe. If he will change his methods the horrors of Santiago and the camps on the southern coast may be for- gotten. But it is too much to hope for yet. For example, it was CORBIN rather than ALGER, who sent SHAFTER to Santiago, and put the sons of rich men in charge of the commissary service of the army. In view of that fact while the passing of ALGER is a subject for consideration the joy of hope must be restrained until the future of CORBIN is revealed. ——Canada: may be slow in some re- spects, but she inspires a wholesome re- gard for law and order by meting prompt and severe punishment to all offenders. Recently a young man was arraigned at Wolseley, Assinaboia, for ‘‘serious offences against morality’’ and before his crime was three days old he was sentenced to seven lashes and three years and six months in in the penitentiary. A few such allopathic doses of law right here in Centre county would have a tendency toward reducing the number of betrayal cases that come up at every sitting of our quarter sessions court to prove a disgrace to the morals of the community. NO. 29. Mr. Gage’s Currency Notions. The Hon. LYMAN J. GAGE, Secretary of the Treasury, is a great (?) financier and a wise (?) man. He was importaned the other day to issue gold certificates against deposits of gold coin in order that the vast quantity of gold in the bank vaults might be utilized for circulation. Mr. GAGE re- plied that he ‘‘doubted the wisdom of a further expansion of the paper currency by the addition of a mass of gold certificates which would compete with the rest in a market already sufficiently supplied.” There is wisdom (?) for you in large, juicy chunks. It is conceivable that there might be an over issue of paper currency by the govern- ment. That is to say it is possible that an issue of paper currency far in excess of the specie in stock for its redemption might be hazardous. But to say that there could be an over issue of gold certificates when there is dollar for dollar of gold coin in the vaults to redeem it is so utter an absuridi- ty as to provoke a smile on the counte- nance of a wooden Indian. It would be as reasonable to assert that a country or an individual can have too much wealth. Besides there would be no expansion of the paper or any other currency by the process which Secretary GAGE deprecates. The gold currency in the bank vaults is idle largely for the reason that gold is in- convenient to handle. The substitution of certificates would not create competition with other paper currency. It would sim- ply convert into convenient form for com- mon use money that is hoarded for the rea- son that it is inconvenient. It might dis- courage the inflation of the national bank currency which Mr. GAGE hopes to effect, but it could possibly have no other influ- ence on the paper or metallic currency of the country. ——The United States commissioner at the international peace conference, now sit- ting at The Hague, voted against the prop- osition to prohibit the use of expansive bullets or a=phyxiated gases in future war- fare, and he did right. While war is awful and is to be deplored if dragged into it we do not propose to have our ingenuity in the “vay of inventing and using death dealing missiles restricted. rah phate dry The Imperial Junketer. The President has gone on another junket. Only three weeks ago while the soldiers around Manila were being pressed almost to the last extremes the President was junketing among the woman’s colleges of New England and relief measures, greatly needed were necessarily withheld until his return. Now he has grown tired again and must be off for another rest. This time he is only to be gone ten days, but as there is no Secretary of War in service now ten days is a good while to have the troops in the Philippines subject to all kinds of suffering and no relief. Meantime what chance have the troops in the Philippines to take rest and recrea- tion? The Tenth regiment Pennsylvania volunteers, now happily homeward bound, were held to the trenches nearly six months after the expiration of their term of enlist- ment. But they got no vacation. While McKINLEY was indulging in platitudes to the pupils of the New England colleges they were blistering under a tropical sun and dodging bullets, neglected in their peril, by the man who of all others was under obligations to shield and protect them. Now that he is again off in pursuit of personal pleasures there are other sol- diers suffering in the trenches. When the soldiers of the North and South were contending on the battle field from 1861 to 1865, President LINCOLN, never found it necessary to go on junketing ex- peditions to serve his pleasure or recruit his health. He took periodical trips, but they were not pleasure junkets. They were to the battle field where he could temper the pain of wounds by gentle words in the ear of the sufferers. That was the only rest that ABRAHAM LINCOLN got from one year’s end to the other while the war was on. The rest of the time was spent at his labors in the capitol for the good of the country. But McKINLEY has introduced different methods. He is in- dulging in imperial luxuries. He must have his junkets and his parades. As Nero fiddled while Rome burned this modern Cesar must junket while the soldiers of the country die in far off fieldsof carnage and blood. ——Chairman RILLING has fixed August 9th, as the time, and Williamsport as the place, to formally notify the Democratic candidates of their nomination. J. OC. MevER Esq., of this place, will represent Centre, Clinton and Clearfield counties on that occasion. ——Doubtless when QUAY read of the way in which the chairman of the recent Republican county convention hauled off his coat when he went up to preside, the ‘‘old man’’ winked that turtle eye and re- marked, ‘Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery.”’ All They Expect Them to Have. From the Doylestown Democrat. A Republican contemporary, aftera dole- ful review of the shortcomings of the pres- ent administration and its wretched fail- ures, consoles itself as follows: ‘‘But after all it is the manual toilers who elect Presi- dents, Governors and Representatives, give them food to eat, clothes to wear, and they will be content with things as they are. This we have done for them, what more could they ask? The mistake of 1892 will not be repeated.” This is not a very high estimate to be placed upon the American workmen nor a flattering tribute to his in- telligence or citizenship but is in strict ac- cord with the foreign standard to which the high tariff and monopolistic doctrines of the Republican party inevitably lead ? The American idea of independent citizen- ship individual enterprise, the right to make a living and the chance to lay by some- thing for a rainy day is to be supplanted by the old world doctrine that the work- man is simply a machine, his labors a com- modity purchased at the lowest rates made possible by the closing out process being inaugurated by the gigantic trusts and combines. With enough to eat and clothes enough to hid their nakedness, the quality and quantity of both to be determined by the requirements of dividends in watered stock, the American workman is expected to be supremely content. ‘‘What more could they ask?’ inquires this defender of monopolies. What less could they ask would be a more pertinent question and the one if we mistake not they will both ask and answer in the near future. A Difference In Manliness. From the Venango Spectator. After Capt. Watkins ran the magnificent steamer Paris on the rocks off the Manacles, he manfully took the blame. After President McKinley drove the ship of state onto the rocks and shoals of imperialism, where she is still pounding, he began to prevaricate about it. He said at Boston he had no policy in the Philippines; that the whole matter rested with Congress. Yet-at the same time he had given instructions to seize the islands. The native opposition to the seizure proving unexpectedly formida- ble, McKinley pursues his Spanish-like tactics by trying to shift the blame of his blunders on other shoulder. Had he kept faith with the Filipinos as he did with America’s other allies, the Cubans, all would now be peace in those islands. © His falsification of our promises to those people has gotten our country into a wretched and costly tangle. And now, hecause a large portion of the American people, including the best minds in the land, will not ganc- ‘McKinley and his pliant newspapers, big and little, are calling them ‘‘traitors’’ and ‘‘copperheads.” It won’t work, gentle- men. If it is ‘‘treason’’ to demand that a strong nation shall keep its solemn pledge in its treatment of a weaker people, this land is full of ‘‘traitors.’”’ The Kind of a Man Wanted. From the Bedford Gazette. At home ‘Farmer’ Creasy commands and receives the respect and admiration of bis neighbors irrespective of party affilia- tions; in the House of Representatives he at- tracted and received the same tribute from all the members, and his conduct through- out the entire session forced from all who watched the proceedings at Harrisburg the highest commendation. His nomination as State Treasurer was the logical result of his services as a Legislator—the people de- manded it—the delegates simply recording their verdict. The result of the general election will be the same. The office is a most trying and responsible one. In the discharge of its delicate and important du- tiesa man of honor is demanded now as never before. William T. Creasy possesses in a pre-eminent degree all the requisite qualifications. His own political organiza- tion is unanimously in accord with him; the independent branch of the Republican party to be consistent and to retain any semblance of sympathy and support, can not do otherwise than yield to him its cor- dial suffrage. Oh, No, It is Not Expensive. From the Pittsburg Post. Imperialism doesn’t cost anything is one way of putting it. Let us see about that. We have had one year of it under McKin- ley, and notwithstanding war taxes ag- gregating $100,000,000 the treasury ran be- hind $90,000,000 the year closing July 1st. In the old days of the Republic that would have been counted pretty steep. Ninety millions of debt added to a hundred mil- lions of fresh taxes! Yet President Me- Kinley distinctly declared at the beginning of his administration that there could be no permanent prosperity in business when government was running behind. And, pray, where has the money gone? The blundering and disastrous campaign in the Philippines tells the story. And with this dreary and saddening story comes the dem- onstrated facts, on the authority of the American correspondents, that this cam- paign has been conducted on a plan of sys- tematic fabrication or suppression of facts. Americans paid the money by the million, they gave up their lives by the thousand 20d, Jet were not considered worthy the ravi. Some of the Fruits. From an Unknown Exchange. The Philippine war has cost the govern- ment thus far $63,000,000 in money and 664 men. Besides, about 6,500 soldiers have been wounded and many times that number have been made invalids. Yet the war Seems no nearer an end than it was months ago. The Americans control less than 100 square miles of territory and are rapidly loosing the little they possess. An army officer. returned from Manila makes the astounding statement that eighty per cent. of the soldiers in the Philippines will get pensions : for dysentery and other in- testinal complaints. : ——Subseribe for the WATCHMAN. tion this policy of lying -and decépiion,.
