OUR EXCHANGES ON THE VERDICT.
Campaign Issmes to Grow Out of This
Trial,
From the Philadelphia Record.
A carpaign issue for the Gubernatorial
election is shaping from the Meek trial.
It arises from exclusion of what was ex-
pected to be sensational evidence, and most
important for the Centre county editor,
but without which he was acquitted in
Harris’ own county, by a jury of the lat-
¢er’s neighbors. The question of Harris’
connection with the legislative majority,
or of Meek’s accusations is immaterial to
the new issue. i
Democratic State organization leaders
and Independent Republican allies think
they will gain political advantage from
¢hat exclusion of testimony. They argue
that what was proposed to be proved con-
cerning general corruption in the late Leg-
islature, revives popular interest in condi-
tions which enabled Yerkes and Coray to
carry the State outside of Philadelphia and
Allegheny. They say that the people of
the State will believe that even if not
much new information could have been ob-
tained from the Republican organization
leaders and legislators summoned here as
witnesses, the machine managers dreaded
that they might be compelled to submit to
probing, and were greatly relieved by the
outcome.
MAY BOWL OUT ELKIN.
Without regard to Meek or Harris, the
anti-machine managers purpose, in the
State campaign, to make the most of the
rejected offers of evidence on the notorious
legislative measures. They seem confi-
dent that if the Stone-Flinn machine shall
he defeated in the municipal election by the
success of John B. Larkin as a candidate
for Controller of Pittsburg, the backers of
Elkin for the Gubernatorial nomination
will lose heart, and may withdraw him.
It is believed that the immediate effects
feared by the Stone-Elkin men from ex-
amination of the notable witnesses would
have been a lessening of their chances in
the Pittsburg election.
Making a False Record.
¥rom the Philadelphia Press, (Rep.)
While a good deal of what the Hon. P.
Gray Meek expected to present as evidence
in the prosecution for libel brought against
him by State Treasurer-elect Harris was
ruled out by the judge, there was some
evidence of a kind that must appear some-
what startling to those who have bad no
previous knowledge of it.
It has not been forgotten that during the
Jast session of the Legislature the integrity
of the roll-call on important measures was
more than once challenged by members
svho had found thefr names recorded though
they were absent and could not have voted.
Tun one instance a bill that had been de-
clared carried was forced to a reconsidera-
sion on this account and afterward defeat-
ed. Itseems that these false votes have
Geen used in the ‘‘Legislative Record,”
which is an authorized publication and pre-
sumed to contain aw accurate report of the
proceedings.
Bertrand Busch, who was making the
report for the *‘Legislative Record,’’ swore
©on the witness stand that many times mark-
«ed roll-calls were handed to him before the
«oll had been called, and often he had re-
corded the names of members as voting
whom he knew at the time were not pres-
ent. Hesays he knew it was not right,
but he could not help it. He ‘“‘had to do
as be was told or get out.” This state-
ment, made under oath, would be surpris-
ing if so much had not been known about
the proceedings of the Legislature at the
time they were taking place. Mr. Busch
makes it apparent that the roll-call fraud
was far more frequent than had been sus-
pected. For this the clerk’s desk is respon-
sible. :
This is the first time the fact that the
record is false has ever heen sworn to by
one who helped to make it so. How many
of the acts of that Assembly were made in-
to laws by the crime of false counting will
never be known. bat it is made plain that
all the vigilance of honest members who
were repeatedly protesting and demanding
a correction of the record ‘could not prevent
the perpetration of the wrong. It wasa
part of the shameless record of. the session.
Libel Suit Developes Astounding Charges
Against Legisiators.
From the Pitlshurg Leader, (Rep.)
Had it been possible to go into a whole-
sale investigation of the last Legislature
and Gov. Stone, there would have been
some astounding revelations made at the
Harris-Meek libel trial at Clearfield last
week.
The defendant in this famous case, P.
Gray Meek. editor of the Bellefonte
WATCHMAN, is said to have acquired, by
voluntary proffer, more insight into the
method by which appropriations from the
state were secured and increased or de-
creased than has ever been guessed at he-
fore. In speaking of it Mr. Meek says
that when the campaign for Governor he-
ios, he feels that it wonld be advisable to
tarn on the light, and will do so.
Information was volunteered to Mr.
Meek, containing the charge that a central
state hospital was compelled to advance in
cash 10 percent. of the amount of its ap-
propriation before the hill carrying the
amount was passed and signed.
It was furthermore stated to Mr. Meek.
and the source of proof given, that an edu-
cational institution in Western Penusyl-
vania had to pay to a certain legislative
elique $5,000 of the $25,000 given it by
the legislative act --or 20 per cent. of the
entire amount. According to the same in-
formant, the books of the institution show
the receipt of the full amount of $25,000,
but the $5,000 is accounted for in a lamp
item, designated as for certain expenses.
A third case is that of a Western Penn-
sylvania normal school, which, it is said,
was compelled to pay 10 per cent. of its
gross appropriation before it was able to
have the bill passed. : ;
These bits of startling news were furnish-
ed Mr. Meek unsolicited, being given in
the hope that it would be possible to go
exhaustively into the secret history of the
last Legislature and lay it bare. When,
however, Judge Gordon ruled out as testi-
mony all things not relating to the matters’
complained of in the indictment of Meek, |
there was an end of legislative revelations, |
except as to the testimony of the Harris
letter and that of stenographer Busch, of
the Legislative Record, who, under oath,
testified that be knew the record of votes
furnished him by Chief Clerk Garvin we
frequently wrong. a Ad
It is Mr. Meek’s intention to undertake
a systematic investigation of the stories of
levies on appropriations to charitable and
educational institutions by the State. This
investigation will be quietly conducted - in
many quarters of the Commonwealth.
The Acquittal of Meek Means the Con=-
viction of Harris.
From the Johnstown Tribune, (Rep.)
It is not at all surprising to read that
State Treasarer-elect Harris has abandoned
his civil suit for $25 000 against editor
Meek, of the Bellefonte WATCHMAN, .in-
stituted in convection with the criminal
action for libel on which Mr. Meek was
last week found not guilty but ordered to
pay the costs. To find the editor not guilty
was in reality finding the prosecutor guilty
of the charges made against him, and un-
der those circumstances the latter could
hardly expect a jury to find very heavy
damages in his favor.
Mr. Harris makes complaint that the
jury which tried the case contained a ma-
jority of members of the same political
faith as the defendant. That was a fact,
as eight of the twelve were Democrats.
But to counter balance that Harris had his
suit tried in his own county, which had
sent him to the Legislature, and not the
county of editor Meek, the defendant, nor
the county in which the newspaper was
published. Moreover the Judge is a Re-
publican and so is the District Attorney.
On the score of the political complexion of
those having a hand in the trial, it really
doesn’t look as though Mr. Harris had any
kick coming.
One thing that stands out more clearly
than anything else in connection with the
trial is that Mr. Harris demanded the sum
of $100 for ‘‘services’’ rendered in connec-
tion with securing an appropriation for a
hospital, three-fourths of whose patients
came from the county which he was sup-
posed to represent in the Legislature. These
*‘services’’ came clearly within his duties
as an Assemblyman, aud to ask extra pay
for them was merely soliciting pay for his
influence after the influence bad been ex-
erted, which isn’t so very different from
demanding the pay before band.
picion upon every Senator or Representa-
tive who had anything to do with securing
aid for a State institution in his district.
Probably in many cases the suspicion will
be unjust, but the average citizen will rea-
son that if Mr. Harris, of Clearfield coun-
ty, wanted a bribe for getting a hospital
appropriation, it is altogether likely that
other Legislators asked and received biibes
for the same sort of work.
Yes, but Only “Probably.”
From the Harrisburg Star-Independent, (Indp.)
The significance of the recent Clearfield
trial was not in the evidence brought out,
but in the testimony suppressed. The
court was probably within the law in its
construction of the relevancy and com-
petency of evidence offered. The limita-
tion law must be respected when it is in-
voked in behalf of a defendant and the
rules of evidence as established are a part
of our system of jurisprudence which a
plaintiff has a legal right to depend upon.
But a verdict obtained for the "plaintiff by
the exclusion of testimony is no better than
a verdict secured by a defendant through
pleading the statute of limitation.
If the defendant in the Harris-Meek libel
suit had been permitted to introduce all
the evidence available in justification of
the publication, he would uot only have
escaped the fine put upon him by the jury
after he bad been declared innocent of the
crime charged, but the venality of the
Legislature which outraged public senti-
ment a year ago would have been exposed
and probably discontinued. The court
was not to blame, however, for the failure
of so desirable a result. He might have
construed the rules a little more liberally,
however, and thus contributed to the abate-
ment of a crowning evil.
The verdict of the jury is, nevertheless,
a condemnation of the Legislature and a
vindication of the accused editor. In the
absence of the evidence of the general ve-
nality and testimony circumstantially con-
necting the plaintiff with it, she justifica-
tion wae not made sufficiently strong to
entitle the defendant, in the estimation of
the jury, to absolute freedom fiom blame.
There was no other way to punish him in
part than that adopted by the jury and it
may be raid condnently that Mr. Meek is
satisfied with the result. It implies an
approval of his course notwithstanding a
stubborn technical contention.
Legislative Frauds.
From the Philadelphia Times.
In the trial of editor Meek there was a
disclosure in the testimony which presents
to the citizens of this State a startling con-
dition of affairs. At the end of the trial
Bertrand Busch, who acted as legislative
reporter during the sessions of last year,
testified that the records were falsified.
He said : Xi
“Many times marked roll-calls were
handed to me before the roll-eall was made,
and often I recorded the names of members
as voting whom I knew at the time were
not present. I knew it was not right, but
I couldn’s help it. I had to doas I was
told or get out.’’ :
Here we have the eviden: the official
reporter that the proceedings of the Legis-
lature was the most corrupt in the history
‘of the country, and its members have not
hesitated to admit that mest of the sins
charged against its record were true, but
this is the first time that the ad mission has
been made under oath by one of its officials
that the records are false. oe >
much money was wasted, what crimes were
committed in appropriations and the veal
losses the people sustained from the in-
fidelity of public servants. ‘Fhe pity is
that there seems to be no way of reaching
the men responsible for these derelictions
of duty. If the officers of the State were
anxious to protect the interests of the peo-
ple they would at once criminally proeeed
‘against the male-factors who perpetrated
this great iniquity. bat they appear only
too glad that they did their bidding,
A Legitimate Subject for Criticism.
From the Tionesta Vindicator. i
*‘Not guilty, but pay the costs,” is the
finding of the jury in the libel case brought
by Frank G. Harris, State Treasurer-elect,
against P. Gray Meek, editor of the Belle-
fonte DEMOCRATIC WATCHMAN. The case
attracted widespread interest in political
circles throughout the State, and almost
every prominent politician and officebolder
in the State was subpoened as witnesses,
hut they were not allowed to testify. The
| Oil City Blizzard says: A more idiotic
verdict was never rendered. If Meek was
not guilty, why sheuld he pay the costs?
Frank Harris, the State Treasurer, was a
candidate before the people, and therefore
a legitimate subject, for criticism.

That which follows is the experience of

as Half Moon Hill, says: “I can con-

back and lameness across my kidneys.
Statements in this paper about Doan’s

I called on F. Potts Green, the druggist,
and got a box. They did me a great deal
of good although I did not take them as
regularly as I should, for the moment the

taking them. They gave me the greatest
relief and I ean give them the credit of

The Hindoo Twins Separated.
The condition of the Hindoo twins, Rad-
ica and Dorica, who were united after the
manner of the Siamese twins, and who were
separated recently by Dr. Dowen, in Paris,
are no worse. They have been sleeping
quietly, side by side, watched by the Sis-
ters of Mercy. The children are terribly
emaciated due to tuberculosis. They have
been nourished since the operation with
champagne, rum and tea. Dr. Doyen, who
is one of the first surgeons in Paris, cannot
answer for the life of either of the twins.
He took great pains to have all the details
of the operation clearly recorded by a liv-
ing picture machine. The doctor twice
asked anxiously how much time was left
before the films would be exhausted. The
children were twenty minutes under chlo-
roform, but the actual operation lasted on-
ly ten minutes. Since the above was set
up Dorica has died. Radiea, the other
twin is doing well.

Tre TOUCH DOES IT.
Benson's Plasters are like your other
friends—they hate to see you in pain or
in weakness and are dog-tired hearing
you complain about it. They want to cure
you and send you along to your business
—whole and happy. They can doit and
will do it. Try them on. What for? Why
for any cough or cold you may be troub-
led with, or any bothering pezin or ache,
or worry with kidneys or liver. Possibly
some old cluteh of muscular rheumatism
renders an arm or a leg worth only half
price just now. For anything that makes
the machine work slow and stiff, with
pain maybe in the motion of it, clap a
Benson's Porous Plaster squarely on the
bad spot. They are the get-out-to-morrow
plasters—not the sort that go to sleep on
vour skin like a eat on a eushion. There
is comfort and speedy relief in the touch
of them. No other external remedy, no
matter how made or how called, is worthy
to live in the same street with Benson's
Plasters. Pains and ailments melt away
under them as a sheet of ice does under
