Bemorri Walch BY P. GRAY MEEK. amram. Ink Slings. —Gen. LEW WALLACE is dead, but Ben Hur will live on forever. —The Liberty Belles were charming enough in looks bust not so tuneful as they might have been. ——1It is not the women who pay the greatest attention to their figares who usually turn out the greatest mathema- ticians. —The American Tobacco company evi- dently bas no pull on the Naval academy at Annapolis. Cadets caught smoking or ehewing are to be instantly dismissed. —Next Tuesday will be election day. See that the good men are elected. Of course there is no need of telling you that all the men on the Democratic ticket are good ones. : —Madame SARA BERNHARDT is said to be arranging for another farewell Ameri- ean tour. We refer the divine SARA toa similar expedition undertaken by dear "PATTI only a year ago. ——Philadelphians complain of cold trolley cars in that city. How foolish! Why the opera house in Bellefonte during the past week would make the coldest car in Philadelp hia feel like a bottle of tabasco boiling in hell. —Pennsy lvania will scarcely stand for a monument to QUAY in the Capitol park. If we are to memorialize public plunderers and men who bave to resort to the statute of limitations in order to escape the juss penalty of their crimes with costly shafts, what in the world will we be able to hold out as a proper reward of real statesmanship and political rectitude. —The appropriation for the sandry eivil bill was reported in Congress on Tues- day and carries $7,718,689 in excess of last year’s allowance for the conduct of the gov- ernment. With the revenues decreasing and the expenses increasing about the only thing there is left of comfort to the public is the thought that we must bave this lovely government of ours even if it does come high. —Without any money for dredging the Dela ware or a share in the government armor plate contracts the Philadelphia Congressmen ooght to have a hard time making explanations to their constituents. They would, if Philadelphia voters were concerned about such things, but as they are not, the machine will accept the inevi- table and look for more gratt from the white-slave traffic. —Mayor JOHN WEAVER, of Philadel- phia, is finding it no easy matter to carry water on hoth shoulders. He has declared that he holds himself responsible for the acts of the police of that city, yet when he attempts the removal of apy of them he is told by the machine that such a course will bring about his own impeachment. Between the preachers and the protectors of the white slave tiaffic WEAVER is bav- ing troubles of his own. —Public sentiment has accomplished its desired result in having secured a reprieve for KATE EDWARDS and SAMUEL GREA- SON who were to have heen hanged in Reading yesterday for the murder of Mrs. EDWARDS’ husband. Public sentiment, however, does not always direct its sympa- | thy to the end of public good. While the thought of hanging makes stout hearts tremble, the thought of the crime that made such punishment necessary should never he lost sight off. —The little pleasantries which Congress- men HEARST, of New York, and SULLIVAN, of Boston, have been exchanging during the past few days cannot be said to be very edifying, though they probably serve the purpose of proclaiming to the public the character of men who sit in Congress. That there should be any grounds what- ever on which one Member might, with impunity charge avother of murder should be enough to make the honorable man ask himself the question: How is it that such persons find their way into the highest branch of our government ? —It seems strange that Sevator Jim McNicHOL who made his maiden speech at Harrisburg, on Tuesday, in a most sentimental appeal for the modification of the Sunday law so that the oppressed working man may have some legaliz- ed form of recreation or amusement on the one day of rest he has, didn’t think how much more eloquent he would have been arguing from a different standpoint. Sup- pose he would have spoken for conditions that would save the laboring man from being robbed by a protective tariff in both his wages and his purchases. Then the "oppressed could afford to take time off from his labors to seek and enjoy the re- creation he needs without desecrating the Sabbath day. —Mrs. EpITH L. CANNON, of Akron, Ohio, shonld have a divorce from her bus- band, PATRICK. She has applied for one on the gronud that PATRICK came home at 12 o'clock at night, when the thermom- eter was at 0°, hoisted all the windowe in their room because he said it wasn’t healthy to sleep without proper ventila- tion, then jumped into bed and later pull- ed all the covers off of her. Imagine your- self in such a predicament any night dur- ing the past week and you will agree with us that the lady should have a divorce; especially since it has always been under- stood that it is the wife’s right to have all the covers, as well as thaw out her icy toes on the spinal column of hubby whenever she desires to do so. _VOL. 50 The President Rebuked. On Saturday last the United States Sen- ‘ate administered a rebuke to President ROOSEVELT which should bring him to some realization of his obligations under the constitution. In his extraordinary lust for power ROOSEVELT hae been committing all kinds of offences against the laws and traditions of the country. In his anxiety to usurp the rate-making power of the railroads be simply wants to boss the transp ortation facilities of the land as he controls those of the sea through his unlaw- ful and extravagant use of warships for pleasure yachts. In his offer to direct the fiscal affairs of San Domingo his purpose was to meet Emperor WILLIAM, of Ger- many and Emperor NICHOLAS, of Russia, on a common level and make treaties under the name of agreements abroad according to his whims. It is intolerable vanity. On Friday last President ROOSEVELT sent a letter to Senator CULLUM, of Illinois, sub- stan tially declaring that if the Senate ex- ercised its constitutional prerogative to am end treaties which practically abdicated the right of that body to ‘‘advise and con- sent’’ to treaties, he would refuse to send certain treaties to the foreign governments concerned for endorsement. It was simply a threat like that of CROMWELL to the Brit" ish parliament except that it wasn’t backed by troops. The Senate justly aud properly resented the usurpation and by a vote of fifty to nine adopted the amendments to which he objected. His most intimate friends on the floor joined in the operation. It was a piece of surgery performed with a butcher's meat axe, hut no other kind would have served. In the San Domingo matter President ROOSEVELT has committed an offense which. if the House of Representatives bad even a modicum of manhood, should lead to impeachment. After baving first enter- ed into an agreement to collect the Euro- pean debts against the bankrupt Republic without the consent of the Senate, he prac- tically declared war without taking the trouble to even invite the action of Con- gress, though the only power to declare war is lodged in Congress hy the constitution. In other words he sent an armed ship of war to one of the helpless ports of the Re- public, forcibly seized it and began colleot- ing the revenues. No pirate on the Span- ish main ever committed a more ontrageons or unlawful act. Bat the cringing and ve- nal Congress does nothing because the President has bribed the Members with of- icial patronage. It is encouraging to dis- cover that the Senate has more spirit and courage. False Cry of Economy. We hope no member of the Legislature and we believe no other citizen will be de- ceived by the admonitions thrown out now and then by agents of the machine at Har- risburg, that there is immediate or even early probability of exhausting the surplus in the State Treasury. Some weeks ago the State Treasurer sent out such an alarm and the other day the Auditor General declared in an interview that economy in appropri- ation will be necessary this year injorder to avert a treasury default. As a matter of fact economy is a great virtne, as a rule, and we have always favored it in the ad- mistration of public affairs. But there are things worse than profligacy, and just now the treasury surplus is worse. 1f the Legislature would turn its atten- tion to a decrease of taxation; or if it would enact such laws as would divert a larger proportion of the state taxes to local pur- poses and thus make a reduction of local taxes possible, we should then be the first and most earnest in the advocacy of econ- omy in appropriations. Bat itis not for the purpose of diminishing the tax burdens of the people that the machine agents are crying for economy. On the contrary, it ig for the purpose of continuing the vast treas- ury surplus in order that the interest ac- count will go into their pockets while the principal serves to bribe voters through the bankers who are favored with the deposits. There is in round figures $15,000,000 in the treasury, general and sinking funds combined, at the present time. ~ That money is deposited in a hundred banks throughout the State and every banker who gets a share of it must get a propor- tion of extra votes for the machine. On this vast sum the State gets two per cent. interest, amounting to $300,000. But the money is worth four per cent. in New York and is given for no less in Pennsylva- nia so that the machine gets $300,000 a year out of it too. This is demoralizing the voters, turning the fiscal agents of the State into boodlers and making public office a source of erime. We submit that profli- gacy is preferable to that. ——1It must be very stienuous labor at the rate they are going, but so far we haven’t heard of any Harrisburg Leg- islator giving out in his efforts to multi- ply offices and increase salaries. Really the endurance of some men seems remarka- ble. STATE RIGHTS AND FEDERAL UNION. BELLEFONTE, PA., FEB. 17, 1905. NO. 7. _ Trouble for the President. The President is very likely to have all the strenuosity he wants during the next few weeks and unless ‘‘he behaves him- self well,” as Governor PENNYPACKER would put it, until the end of his official life. In another article we refer to the re- buke administered to him by the Senate in the matter of the several arbitration trea- ties which had been negotiated and signed. Since that article was written we notice that the gentlemen of that august body are preparing another bump or two for him that will shake him up effectually. The first of these is in relation to his con- structive recess of a year ago last Decem- ber and the other will have reference to the Santo Domingo affair. In these transactions President ROOSE VELT has revealed an exceedingly low moral organization. In the matter of the arbitration treaties he simply tried to sneak one word in as a substitute for an- other which would have completely chang- ed the relations of the Executive to the government of the country. The consti- tution requires treaties to be ratified by the Senate and it is silent concerning agreements, If his trick had worked he could have made such treaties as he liked with whomever he liked and snapped his finger at the Senate, By his constructive recess, an absurd perversion of language, he was enable to make his nomination of Dr. WooD to be Major General in the army and the negro CRUM to be collector of the port of Charleston, successful. In the Dominican affair he tried to make an agreement serve the purpose of a treaty. The adequacy of the constructive recess is to be made a subject of senatorial dis- cussion in a few days. Soon after the beginning ‘of the present session Senator TILLMAN introduced a resolution asking the Judiciary to issue an opinion upon it. Nothing was done with the resolution, however, until recently, when a report adverse to the President’s action was adopted. Senator SPOONER was ready to snbmit the report yesterday but it was deferred on account of the absence of Sena- tor PLATT, of Connecticut. - When it is re- ported the President will be rebaked and after that the San Domingo case will give opporsunisy for another jolt. A Doubtful Benefaction. Interest has recently been revived in the provision of the will of the late E. J. PRU- NEK, by which he bequeathed his old homestead in Bellefonte asa home for the friendless, that is the parentless, children of the towus of Bellefonte and Tyrone. In the same clause he provided for the endow- ment of the home by giving to it the in- come from certain properties in Tyrone and other places. While there can be no doubt of the be- nevolent purpose the testator hoped to ac- complish and in that he showed a greater heart than many who have made greater pre- tensions of goodness there is a grave ques- tion as to the feasibility of the plan. Inasmuch as there has been considerable question as to which one of Colonel PRU- NER’S several wills will be carried into ex- ecation any general discussion of the mat- ter would seem a little premature and that is possibly the reason that the comncils of Bellefonte and Tyrone have not taken it under advisement. When the time comes, however, the prin- cipal item to be discassed will be the suf- ficiency of the endowment. If the net in- come from the properties mentioned should yield three thousand dollars and upwards it would be possible to maintain such a home as Col. PRUNER evidently had in mind; that is to say, one in which the lit- tle ones could be properly sheltered as well as given the benefit of good, christian, home training. A less sum would scarcely suffice. And if, when the time for a decis- ion finally comes, it is found to be practic- able we can think of no more satisfactory, and, perhaps, judicious solution of the proper management of such an institution than by turning it over to the care of the Children’s Aid Societies of the two towns. The women who have been engaged in this labor of love for years know what is best for children and would certainly be more capable of its economic conduct than any body of men could be. The Capitol Park Question, Senator Fox, of Dauphin county, has agreed to an amendment to his bill for the enlargememt of Capitol park so as to re- duce the appropriation for the purpose from $2,500,000 to $1,800,000. The Sena- tor discovered that graft wouldn’t go and 80 he hauled in his horns. As reported from the committee the bill still provides for a commission at considerable expense and large fees for lawyers. Somebody would better advise him to cut those things out also. The State officials can do the work, including tbe legal examinations, and that being the case there is no neces- sity for either a commission or lawyers’ fees. The WATcHMAN has favored this en- terprise on legitimate lines from the be ginning. It has seemed to us a useful and needed improvement, as well as a safe method of cutting down the surplus in the treasury now used by the machine for buy- ing votes for the Republican party. But we have always bad a reservation to oar endorsement of the undertaking. That is, we have held that it should be free from graft of all sorts and strictly a legitimate operation. Senator FoX appears to have imagined that he could deceive the public and the Legislatore and provide for steal- ing to the extent of in the neighborhood of a million. He bas been undeceived in pars and would better be undeceived en- tirely. It is now estimated that the costjof the property to be acquired will be! about $1,400,000. That is probably $400,000 above the actual figure. He proposes a margin of $400,000 above the cost of the property to make the improvements and fixes the total at $1,800,000. This is en- tirely too moch and unless the amount is reduced the bill ought to be defeated. An appropriation of $1,400,000 is ample for all purposes and if the wolves want more they ought not to get any. This fact should be conveyed to them early in the game. If they refuse to listen to reason an adverse vote will bring them to their senses. The Republican Convention. The Republican State convention has been called by the bosses to meet in Harrisburg on April 26. The authority to call conventions is vested in the State committee. But there has been no meet- ing of that committee. For several years the custom has been to get the census of committeemen through the mails. Bus this year even that perfunctory method bas not been adopted. Somebody, pre- sumably Sznator PENROSE but probably his private secretary, Mr. WESLEY R. ANDREWS, has taken upon himselfjftbe responsibility of fixing the date. The bosses want freedow to go and come dur ing the summer according to their {fancy and the convention is fixed before the sum- mer begins. To this case the bosses have not stopped with fixing the date of the convention. They have also selected the ticket for the | party. There are four candidates to nomi- | nate, three for the Superior court bench and one for State Treasurer. For the Judicial nominations the present incum- bents, Judges BEAVER, RICE and ORLADY bave been chosen properly enough probab- ly. For the State Treasurer the candidate selected by the machine is Representative J. LEE PLUMMER, of Blair county. What PLUMMER has done to deserve this favor will probably not be known until the Legislature has completed the appropria- tion bills. Bogus Anti-Discrimination, The ivsincerity of the present movement for anti-discrimination in freight rates is revealed in the fact that in the bill enacted by the House the other day there is not a syllable to prevent such discrimination. There are four ways by which railways may discriminate in rates. One is to differ- entiate in taiiffs to shippers; another to pay rebates; still another to use the cars of car line companies, such as the beef trust refrigerator cars, and the last to pay dis- proportionate rates to private or at least separate terminal companies. There isn’t a word in the bill adopted the other{day to prohibit either of these things. The plain inference is that the President didn’t want to prevent discrimination in rates and that what he did want is control of the railroads. If the purpose had been to protect shippers an act of Congress penal- izing discrimination and fixing a good round pericd of time in prison would have prevented defferentiation and rebating. The other evils would have been equally easy to dispose of. For example, a law making it a misdemeanor punishable by imprisonment for using any cars owned by other than regularly organizedjirailroad companies and prohibiting under like penalty the payment of terminal tolls ata higher rate than is charged per mile for transportation on other lines, would achieve the result with absolute certainty. The EscH-TOWNSEND bill is no more an anti -discrimination law than the act which forbids counterfeiting and will have no more influence on railroads. It will give the President a lot of patronage which he will dispose of to the highest bidder in political service and if it becomes a law it will give him more power over the equip- ment and service of the railroads than those who have been chosen by the share owners to direct them. It will make extended tours in magnificent special trains easy and probably frequent and it will invest in the President a force in politics that none of his predecessors even dreamed of. ——Along with the proposed statue to Senator QUAY why not one of SAM SALTER and auother one to glorify the citizens of Philadelphia now engaged in the ‘‘white elave’’ traffic? The Republican party is equally indebted to them all. A Spirit of the Rock DEDICATED T0 SAMUEL DienL. CONTRIBUTED. A Spirit of the Rock am I, With head uplifted to the sky. Though hail and rain beat in my face, Through weal or woe hold I my place; With head uplifted to the sky A Spirit of the Rock am I. Devoid of every earthly friend I’ll stand undaunted to the end, And when that earthly tie shall break You'll find that ballot but a fake. I then will on my record stand, And view once more fair Caanan’s land; And then with love I'll sing with glee And celebrate our jubilee. And now the raging storm is o’er, My hobo friends return once more And find me standing calm and free, They cry aloud and shout with glee. My wearied soul now longs for rest; With naught of malice in my breast, I will greet each passer by. A Spirit of the Rock am 1. Poor, I have sheltered many a year, They fear the storm, desert in fear. The strenuous Hobos strive to stay, But ah! at last his heart gave way; The sun clad hills have hid his form, He’s left me here amidst the storm. Lo! My troubles anew unfold. A new and threatening storm appears, It’s funnel shape fills me with fears. Voters won't you spare the ax? We have a plan to spare the ax, Cut out wheat and feed on rye, Will be your humble servant's cry. Hark! In the rear loud footsteps head, The bugle blasts of Colonel ned. While Howley’s Japs are in my front; My record now must stand the blunt. With it I'll triumph o’er my foes; Unless I'm made turn up my toes. Then you will hear of victories won, Of glorious deeds by me unsung. Although I be one lonely star, A candidate or Russian Czar, I will stili my record wave, Though I fill a martyr’s grave. Though hail and storm beat in my face, Through weal or woe I'll hold my place; With eyes uplifted to the sky, A Spirit of the Rock am I. May Result in Good if Only a Pretense. From the Chicago Public. 3 Despite its apternalism, President Roosevelt’s Philadelphia speech of the 30th sounds one tine pote. This is his pro- test against regarding the pocr as better than the rich because they are poor, or the rich as hetter than the poor because they are rich, and his demand that there shall be equality of opportunity for the one class as well as for she other. very platitndinous; for President Roosevelt has given no evidence of any lively belief in the principle of equal opportunity. His appointment of a negro co-partisan $0 a public office in a southern community does not go far in this direction; for the doc- trine of equal opportunity cuts deeper than office spoils or race prejudices. It implies that every child shall have an equal right in this world, to live here and to work here, with every other child, and that this equal right cannot be alienated so as to create perpetual ‘‘vested rights’ in the valuable privilege of denying it in order to sell it. We doubt if Mr. Roosevelt would acknowledge any such universal right, ex- cept in a platitudinons way. However, there are worse things than good platitudes and if Mr. Roosevelt keeps repeating his ‘‘equal opportunity’’ platitude, he may some day touch to the quick by its tre- mendons truth and be inspired with its splendid possibilities. The Great Dead Head. From the News Columns of the N. Y, World. In the three years and a half he has been President. Mr. Roosevelt has traveled in private cars and on passes, and on spe- cial trains much more extensively than any, of his predecessors, and possibly more than all of them combined. He always rides on passes in a private car, as do all the members of his family and the guests and employes who go with him, and unless the trip is a very short one he travelsin a special train, which is always luxuriously appointed and lavishly supplied with things to eat, drink and smoke. The private car Olympia, the Pennsylva- nia railroad’s finest piece of equipment, has come to be known as ‘‘the President’s car,”’ from the frequency with which if is used by Mr. Roosevelt. It is always at his disposal, and every time he has to take a trip it is overhauled and put in perfect order. When the president takes a trip he is fornished with a train of brand new Pullmans, liberally supplied with substan- tial food, delicacies of which the president is especially fond, wines, liquors and cigars. The train does pot cost the president a cent, either for transportation or supplies. The railroads are glad to furnish it, as they consider it a good advertisement to trans- port the president. The Age of Jam. From the New York Sun. The Republican conference decided that the railway rate bill should be jammed through the House at once. An effort will then be made to jam it through the Sen- ate. Whip and spur versus deliberation. Legislation while you wait. An effort is being made to jam Arizona and New Mexico into union, and to jam the result into Statehood. The San Domingo affair looks like a bad case of jam which got jammed before it got ripe. Army captains are jammed into general- cies. Appropriation bills are jammed through. The age of jam is upon us, but it remains to be seen whether beef packers and railways will be jammed into obedi- ence to the law. Meanwhile the Constitu- tion is jammed into the background. ——3ubseribe for the WATCHMAN.
