The election of ToM JOHN- soN for Mayor is the most serious set-back the boodle Senator has received since his meteoric advent in politics. —The cyclones that killed so many peo- ple in the southwest are still unaccounted for. Now had they been in the northwest —coming out of the Yellowstone park as it were—the cause would have been unmis- takable. —There were Democratic doings in Ohio and Michigan on Monday.

It is the consummation of all that is unjust and pernicious and could only have been conceived in the cowardly minds of those who are afraid to have their actions exposed in the lime light of public scrutiny. It the press of the State is to be bridled as the SALUS bill provides that it shall there wili be such a record of political crimes, in- trigue and plunder as was not even dreamed of in the worst days of the Roman Empire. Pennsylvania will fall to the lowest depths when the last ohstacle—the fearless news- paper—is removed from the path of the political brigand. Co VOL. 48 Roosevelt's Absurd Speech. President ROOSEVELT’S tariff speech de- livered in Minneapolis, on Saturday night, wa: a strange mixture of inconsistencies and absurdities. He manifestly tried to satisfy the tariff reformers and keep on the safe side of the ultra protectionists and like every other public man who has tried the experiment of carrying water on both shoulders, he has made a spectacle of him- self. Possibly he may succeed in fooling those who profess to believe in the Iowa idea, and it is practically certain that he will satisfy the trust magnates who under- stand potentiality of generous compaign contributions. But he will certainly not deceive a majority of the voters of the country by such rubbish as that uttered in his Minneapolis speech. In the outset he cordially commends the ratification of the reciprocity treaty with Cuba, which is a fraud on its face. If the ratification had become effective immediate- ly there would be some reason in his claim that ‘‘it widens the markets for our pro- ducts.”” Bat it can’t achieve that result while it is inoperative and the terms of the ratification are that it shall not go into effect until approved by the House of Rep- resentatives of the next Congress. The last Congress refused absolutely to enact any legislation which would decrease the tariff rates on Cuban products and if the next House is of the same opinion the treaty will be abrogated and the self praise of the President will resolve itself into meaningless platitudes or worse. After exbausting his vocabulary in com- mendation of the Cuban treaty, moreover, the President proceeds to smooth the fur of the protectionist cat hy asserting that any tariff revision at this time ‘would be dis- astrous in any event.’”’ The substance of the Cuban treaty is that it reduces the tariff rates and tariff revision wounld {have the same effect. Now if reducing tariff rates by treaty, which is an unconstitution- al method ‘‘widens the markets for our pro- ducts,’ how does it happen that producing the same result by legal processes ‘would be disastrous in any event.’”” The truth is that the President doesn’t know anything about the subject be is discussing and his oracular declarations of palpable inconsis- tencies make hig. ont absard. ri Corrupt Methods in Legislation. In the Senate of Pennsylvania, the other day, the attendance being rather meagre, a motion was made to discontinue the cal- endar of general legislation and take up that of appropriation bills, most of which being for other than state institutions re- quired a two-thirds vote to carry them through. As bills of a general character only require a majority vote the fact excit-’ ed comment and one of the Senators pres- ent, according to a Harrisburg correspon- dent, remarked that it is perfectly safe to consider appropriation bills with a small number of Senators present. because every- body is marked up on such measures, wheth- er they are present or not. The constitution requires that every bill which passes the Legislature must be read at length on three separate days, consider- ed and agreed to and on final passage the roll must be called, ‘‘the names of the per- sons voting for and against the same be entered on the journal and a majority of members elected to each House be recorded thereon as voting in its favor. The plain purpose of that provision of the funda- mental law was to prevent the marking up of anybody unless he is actually present and answers to his name. The marking up of everybody is simply a form of ballot box stuffing quite as reprehensible as any other type of that crime. The practice which has grown up in the Senate of marking up everybody on appro- priation bills is, therefore, a direct viola- tion of the constitution of the State. It is the result of the anxiety of every Senator to get as much out of the treasury for the district he represents as possible, without regard to the methods.necessary to achieve the result. One Senator must vote for the appropriation bill of another, however iniquitous, in order to get the support of the other for his bill equally bad and the result is a system of log-rolling whichfputs the constitution in contempt and the con- science of every Senator to sleep. There can be no reform while such things endure. ——1It doesn’t take a very long head to see through Governor PENNYPACKER'S ‘‘revival of an old custom'’ in having the trustees of the University of Pennsylvania meet in tbe office of the Secretary of the Commonwealth. The University has been trying for years to make Pennsylvania be- lieve that it—and not the Pennsylvania State College—is the ward of the State and inasmuch as the Governor is a trustee of the Philadelphia institation it looks as if this ‘‘revival’’ gives his endorsement to a scheme that would have the State violate a sacred pledge it made to the federal govern- ment in 1862. : ~——Suberibe for the WATCHMAN.

The result of the municipal elections in Ohio on Monday is a mixed victory for both parties and an absolute triumph for neith- er. In Cincinnati Democratic expectation was disappointed in the defeat of M. E. INGALLS, though why such hopes had been entertained is not clear. The city has been going largely Republican for many years and during the last decade a rather dis- reputable politician has been building up under the patronage of Senators HANNA and FORAKER a machine something like that which governs Philadelphia. Mr. IN- GALLS, the Democratic candidate, had wealth and respectability behind him but those things don’t count for much when there is equal wealth and much less respectability on the other side. But the Democrats achieved a signal and significant triumph in the re-election of Hon. Tom L. JOHNSON to the office of Mayor of Cleveland. That city is the home of Senator HANNA as well as of some of the most important trusts and every political and personal energy was spent in the effort to defeat the Democratic candidate who has been all his life a conspicuously bold and earnest opponent of monopoly and Repub- licanism. But he was not only triumph- antly elected in a city which has net been consistently Democratic but carried his whole ticket through to victory with him by an increased majority. The elec- tion of Golden Rule JONES is probably not much of a victory for either party, though he bas been and probably will continue to act with the Democrats. Thus it will be seen that of the three large cities in the State the Democrats car- ried one overwhelmingly, lost another by about the usual majority and got a trifle of the fight in the third. That is not what you might call a great triumph, but it is doing fairly well under circumstances which are particularly auspicious for the opposi- tion. Politics have nothing to do with the present prosperity, but it is traditional that in this country the party in power profits by good times and suffers from business ad- versities. The battle of Monday was, there- fore, fought under conditions most favora- ble to the Republicans and yet that party failed to gain at all and didn’t, as a matter Trouble in the Camp. Governor PENNYPACKER’S veto pen has at last created havoc and all sorts of dire consequences are predicted. It was the cigarette bill which did the business, but a miss is as good as a mile and one meas- ure as potential as another for making trouble. The cigarette bill has accom- plished that result in various languages, according to reports that come from Harris- burg. It brought QUAY to the capital al- most before the ink was dry and at that DURHAM got there ahead. They were too late to remedy the evil and now QUAY is wondering how he can satisfy the tobacco trust that it wasn’t his fault and that not much harm has been done any way. No campaign contributors have been more generous to the Republican party during recent years than the American to- bacco trust. During the contest of last fall that corporation was particularly munificent when QUAY appealed to it for help and assured them that there would be no cigarette ‘‘pincher’’ in the Legislature this year. Two years ago the same little joker bobbed up and the trust was obliged to pay several thousand dol- lars to get it killed off. Last ‘fall QUAY guaranteed the officers that this year it wouldn’t cost them a cent, for in the event that such a measure were introduced and passed he would bave it vetoed. Thus as- sured the trust let it go through without remonstrance. But the Governor either forgot or pur- posely disregarded the pledge made by QUAY and signed the bill and now the trast is after QUAY and he is without de- fence. The first information he received of the affair was in a shape of a sharp tele- gram from the trust officers and he im. mediately set out for Harrisburg, where he arrived on Tuesday evening. What took place between himself and the Governor when they met has not been revanled and probably wouldn’t be fit to print in a fam- ily newspaper anyway. But it ie safe to say that the American tobacco company will make no more campaign contributions to QUAY. Pennypacker and Machine Plans. It may be assumed that Governor PEN- NYPACKER himself gave the solar plexus blow which pat the hill for the retirement of Justices of the Supreme court asleep for- ever last week. . The plan was to induce ‘hief Justice MeCoLLUM, who is in feeble health, to resign and thus create a vacancy on the bench to be filled by appointment. The scheme further contemplated the res- ignation of Cousin SAM from the office of Governor to which the Oleaginous BROWN would sncceed under the constitution with the understanding that he would appoint PENNYPACKER to fill the vacancy on the Supreme court bench. APRIL 10, 1908. NO. 15. No doubt Governor PENNYPACKER would like very well to have a full term on the Supreme judicial tribunal of the State and thus round out his long public life in a congenial employment at a comfortable salary and with abundance of leisure. Buf gratifying as that would be to himself the idea of surrendering the State to the dan- gers which the elevation of ‘‘Oleo’”” BROWN to the office of Governor was probably too revolting - to his patriotic spirit and at the last moment he served notice of revolt against the scheme which robbed it of all its enticing qualities. Hence the abandon- ment of the retiring measure last week. Besides the brief experience which PEN- NYPACKER has had in the office of Gover- nor has been exceedingly attractive. He has heen flattered in every direction. The local historical societies at Harrisburg have presented him with honorary memberships and he has heen invited to dinners and had other social honors bestowed on him almost to satiety. And such flattery is exceeding pleasant to him. He mellows under it like a child with a new toy. His speeches are rather happy, moreover, barring his inevi- table and perennial reference to his family history, and the chances are that be prefers his present office to any that could be con- ferred on him. A Curtin Monument Hospital, Which 3 or Sometime ago the Daily News offered its columns for a discussion as to the best dis- position to be made of the CURT’N mem- orial fund and what would be the most fitting memorial which this town could erect to its renowned citizen, the late Gov. CURTIN. Either the possibility of erecting anything seemed too mythical to the ma- jority or there was no choice to voice for only a few offered suggestions, the best among these being that of Rev. GEORGE ISRAEL BROWN for a Library and Museum, Mr. BROWN’S suggestion appealed} to the litterateur, to the sentimentalist who al- ways loves to preserve relics of a pass, to the artistic to whom the beautiful will always appeal, and, in a certain! manner, to the antiquarian who would always find a place for pleasing reminiscence and an opportunity to delve into the past through the: medium such relics as might be ‘| gathered together in such a building would afford. But the experience of other places should be our best guide in this matter. New York, large and rich, only recently possesses a Hall of Fame. Boston may af- ord her fine library and Harvard Museum, Washington her Congressional Library and Smithsonian but we are in comparison a small and poor town and must either do without the laxury of a monument, ideal as Mr. BROWN would erect, or the neces- si ty of a hospital and since it is to be a memorial to honor the name of a man whose fame was in his care of the needs of the people whose Chief Executive he was, why not make it a hospital ? The Taj Mahal is the most beautifal monument ever erected but lives were sacrificed in its building rather than help- ed by it. The love of a bereaved heart which s ought expression for its grief in such ex- quisite workmanship might have offered a yet more beautiful memorial in alleviat- ing the sufferings of his helpless subjects. Will not Phipp’s million dollar hospital for the care of poor consumptives bea bet- ter monument shan this beautiful structure of India ? No hero ever sacrificed his life for a marble monument, but for the good of a country and its people. Did WasH- INGTON or LAFAYETTE or HAMILTON or any of our great heroes struggle that they might have an arch or building erected to their memory ? No, but that they might help others. It would, assuredly, be a nice thing for our town if every prominent man who ever lived among us bad left a memorial, wheth- er statue, library or mueenm, to keep his name ever with us! That honor belongs solely to a woman who, poor as the world counts riches, yet left the town richer in its Petriken hall and the {memory of the generosity of its donor. : Bellefonte cannot afford to put a large sam into a purely ornamental monument, no matter how beautiful, and even though the beautiful and useful he combinedas in a library, it would have to be maintained and that is often the most difficult to pro- vide; whereas a hospital, as a memorial might be a beautiful building with its maintesance insured—first, by those to whom such a work always appeals; second, by those who would be interested in it as a memorial; third, by state legislation which will sooner or later come to the aid of a hospital. We will have a hospital anyway, but it will be a small, plain one always struggling and unable to do the good it might were it a memorial. ——Joseph Knapper, a Philipsburg boy, and the youngest of the five applicants who tried for the examination for Annapolis on Tuesday, at Clearfield, bad the best papers and will probably be appointed by Con- gressman Dresser. ERNE... He Would Lay the Good Old Bible Aside for Modern Theorles. From a Sermon by Rev. Dr. Frederic Hinckley. Rev. Fredrick A. Hinckley, pastor of the Spring Garden Unitarian Church at Phila- delphia, said in an address delivered Sun- day that it is too late now to maintain the invulnerability of the old chnreh doctrines as many of them pertaining to the im- maculate conception and the fall of man had been hopelessly shaken by the evolu- tion of modern thought. ‘No one need be suprised,’” he said, “at the widespread conviction finding its way slowly into all denominations, at least in the form threatening suspicion, that Jesus had a human father ; that there bas been no fall of man, but a constant ascent of man ; that each of us must work out his own salvation ; that the great leadership of Jesus was not a monopoly, and that those children of the Infant who never came within His influence are not helpless in the struggle of life. SHATTERING OLD BELIEFS, ‘“We have been hearing a good deal in Philadelphia for the last two weeks about heresy through the medium of the public press ; the controversy now stirring one. of our great denominations has become public, property. It contains some elements of large import to the general and religious welfare which I esteem it a right and duty to consider. : ‘The occasion which zalled on} this statement is found in some utterances at Lenten services by a supposed heretical rector from New York. And the danger involved to the Christian faith is said to have been greatly increased because young folks were present and the audience was made up of men and womeu. ; ‘‘The great doctrines of the Gospel and of the creed which it is said were question- ed by the heretical speaker are the infalli- blity of the Old and New Testaments as the word of God, the miraculous con- ception and birth of Christ, fall of man and the redemption by the Lord Jesus Christ, who made upon the cross a fall, perfect and sufficient sacrifice for the sins or the propitiation for our sins ; the one mediator between God aud man. p REVISION OF THOUGHT, ‘To question these dootrines is declared to be heresy. Men have thought a great many things in the past which, wiser grown, they do not think now. : ‘No one need be surprised at the grow- ing and spreading conviction that certain portions of the Bible have been shown to be in error, and that as a whole it is not an infallible book but'a literature varied in kind and gnality. fi uti “All this is what has come in a white light of modern long time the human mind was netfree to from, living ‘exercise its functions in the realm -of re- ligion. OLD BELIEFS WON'T STAND. ‘‘It is too late now to maintain the in- vulnerability of the oid church doctrines. They have many of them, and certainly all of those included in this recent statement, been shaken hopelessly in proposition as thought has been free to deal with them. ‘“That is why you and I in common with 80 many people have been accustomed to think that in all denominations people are far in advance of the creeds which have been handed down to them from the past. But here we have a deliberate reaffirma- tion of the Old Error made by thinking men and the declaration that to ques- tion them is a heresy that must be driven from the church. + HERESY IS PROGRESS.” ‘‘Those who oppose heresy assume that what already is is complete and perfect. They dislike instinctively the spirit of in- novation, the spirit which is constantly making all things new. ‘‘Now I want to say that hersey is the first step in all progress. You cannot find in any realm of thought or of action any progress which does not begin on the sup- position that there is something better than the established order. : *‘The signers of the Declaration of Inde- pendence were all heretics. They struck out from the old idea of things in a way that startled mankind. Every great ad- vance, of which we have had so many in religious thought and practices, marks the breaking out of a new heresy. Savonarola was a heretic, Martin Luther was a heretic. ‘‘Heresey cannot he driven out. It so inspires men to be enlisted in some honor- = movement that they will never surren- er. The Humorous Side of Quay Bailot Reform. From the Reading Herald. When the ennnied or overworked citizen seeks refreshing amusement, a light laugh to drive the blues away, he need not turn to Puck or the red and yellow Sunday sup- plement. A Republican platform will do just about as well. There is far more humor in these documents. Somebody might suggest it was unconscious humor. But not at all. We can well imagine the framers of these platforms shaking with laughter over their construction, and be- hold great tears of jollity welling up in Mr. Quay’s eyes as the rough draft is read off to him. Thus, for instance, take last year’s docu- ment : ‘‘Unequivocally and with empha- sis,” it reads, ‘‘this convention declares for a pure and honest ballot in the State of Pennsylvania, and for the enactment of such laws, or the amendment of existing laws, a8 will moet effectively and speedily accomplish this most desirable purpose. ‘‘The Republican party of Pennsylva- nia,’’ it goes on, *‘stands prepared to aid any or all other parties in remedying the defects, ete., eto.”’ . Not badly humorous in itself, possibly, but the very quintessence of humor when you consider all the circumstances and study subsequent events. Read this plank of a year ago, and then look at the present Legislature. See the Republicans in the latter body carrying out this unequivocal and emphatic declaration. Behold the Re- publican party of Pennsylvania doing their r6 in remedying defeots:: And then owl with mirth over the satire of the thing.

After January 1st, next ‘when the lease of James Russ ex- ‘pires, the corner will be converted into a business block. —Bids have been asked by the Pennsyl- vania railroad for new round-houses and re- pair shops to cost approximately $2,000,000, to be built at Altoona and Hollhidaysburg. The Hollidaysburg plant will be used in con- nection with the Portage railroad, now re- building. Contracts will be awarded about April 15th, ° —The anti-cigarette bill, which was passed by the Senate and concurred in by the House is now a law, having been signed Monday by the Governor, and it goes into effect immedi- ately. The bill makes it a misdemeanor punishable by a fine of from $100 to $300 for any person to sell cigarettes or cigarette paper to a minor under 21 years of age. —West Moshannon has been suffering from an epidemic of an eruptive disease which all the doctors but one pronounced chickenpox, and that one claims it was a mild form of smallpox. A visit from the State Board of health Thursday, we understand, supports the smallpox theory and a general quarantine is to be established on all roads leading through the infected place. —The Huntingdon News says a man named Hazzard, whose home is in Tough Creek valley, visited Huntingdon Monday, having $25 with bim to make some purchases at a sale on the fair ground. But unfortunately for him he fell into bad company, became in- toxicated, was placed in the lock-up and when sober the next day he found that his money was gone. It was his first and last spree, so he says. There isno clue to his lost money. —A colony of 45 farmers from the Kishaco- quillas and Big Valleys, Mifflin county, left Lewistown last week for North Dakota, where they will take up claims and enter agricultural pursuits. A greater portion of these were Amish people who have been tenants on the most fertile farms in Juniata valley. They have sold their effects aud left, asserting they could no longer compete with western farmers in crop raising. Several other colonies expect to leave ina short time. —The. weather man has been springing few days. Friday he treated us to a regular June day and brought the mercury up to beyond the 80° mark. Saturday it was down to 40 degrees, while snow flakes fell and the stored away overcoats and jackets were hauled out of the recesses and put to good use again. Persons with weak lungs should carefully guard against such sudden changes in temperature. —The preliminary steps were taken in Schuylkill county courts recently in the suit of which Mrs. Elizabeth Burmeister has instituted against the borough of Ashland to recover $20,000 damages, because her hus- band died of the smallpox. Itis alleged that he was forcibly removed from his home to the emergeney hospital in Butler township, and that he died from neglect and lack of proper treatment. He died two’ years ago. The outcome of the suit will be awaited with much interest. i —Jersey Shore had an exciting and dis- astrous fire Sunday night but the blaze was confined in its destruction to M. I. Staver’s barn, on South Main street. The loss on the barn and contents will total $1,000, but the other losses will be insignificant. There was a high wind blowing at the time, and the sparks from the burning barn sailed around furiously in all directions. Half a dozen buildings were on fire at one time, but the five hose companies succeeded in getting them out. Besides the live stock in the barn there were two or three vehicles, and a lot of fireworks owned by druggist J. E. Mohn, and these all went up in smoke. —Joseph Brown, a brakeman, was killed in the Altoona yard Friday. He started to dinner and, as was his custom, boarded a “pull up’ at Twelfth street. He lived at Fifteenth avenue and Twenty-fourth street. At Twenty-fourth street he got down on the engine step and swung off. Behind him on the next track, going faster and faster every minute, was No. 11. He did not see the: engine of the mail train until it struck him. He was knocked down by the locomotive and was struck on the left side of the head, near the back, causing a fracture of the skull, In the fall his left leg was canght under the wheels and ground off between the ankle and knee. He died almost instantly. —L. B. Detwiler is a young man, and until recently was a brakeman on the Pennsyl- vania railroad. He boarded with Mrs. Maggie Mansfield in Altoona, and jumped his board bill of $17. He was quite intimate with another railroader named John M. Smith, At Pitcairn on February 12th he entered the pay car of the Pennsylvania road and signing the name of Smith to the pay roll drew his friend’s pay amounting to $77.15. On the following day at Derry he entered the car again and drew his own pay of $54. He was arrested at Rockhill Furnace, Huntingdon county Wednesday night and taken to Altoona and locked up. He was given a hearing before Alderman Snyder in-- volving the board bill. The young man’s father appeared, paid the bill and costs, and in the railroad money case he refunded the amount, paid the costs and thus secured the defendant’s release. Detwiler is 28 years old and comes from a good family, his uncle being the associate judge of Huntingdon county.
