THE COLUMBIAN, BLOOMSBURG, PA.
ACCEPTS HIS COUNTRY'S CALu.
muiini H. Hal Consents to be m Candi
date for Constable.
William H. Hale, the Brooklyn law
ymt. was recently honored by the Re
publican of the Sixth Ward by being
nominated for Constable.
Mr. Hale was deeply moved by this
touching manifestation of regard on the
peart f his Republican neighbors, and
ksaed a letter of acceptance which does
foil and complete justice to the event.
Hie in part as follows:
"The paltry office of constable is cer
tainly one which I should never seek.
Ib friends and associates of my youth
bare reached the pinnacles of power
and influence in the Republican party.
Item the time when that party was or
ganized I have been a Republican.
Nearly forty years ago, as a schoolboy
at Albany, we had a so-called young
American Senate, and our President
was Charles E. Smith, afterward United
States Minister to Russia. As class
mates we were graduated together at
the) Albany Academy. Afterward, at
Union College, my class included War
Bar Miller, Mr. Thayer, late United
Rates Minister to Holland; William H.
McElroy, late of the editorial staff of
the New York Tribune; Charles E. Pat
tenon, late Speaker of the Assembly,
and Neil Oilmour, late Superintendent
ss? Instruction. Still later, at Yale, I
was graduated in the same class with
thai illustrious and lamented William
Walter Phelps, whose recent untimely
eWth cut short a brilliant career which
might well have oalminated in the Pres
idential chair. You will recognise
Presidential timber also in the names of
Warner Miller and Charles E. Smith.
It seems I have had more classmates
' who have attained conspicuous politi
cal eminence than any one else in
America ever had.
Were I therefore to leave private
Hfm, duty to myself and to my country
would impel me to seek some higher
station among my peers. Yet the diffi
culty of the task assigned me is itself
sa inspiration. To win even the lowest
wsxd office in this ward, which I think
Barer elected a Republican to any office,
las herculean undertaking, and there
for that the party may succeed I will
take the nomination which you sponta
neously offer mo.
J fuel that my course in these matters
has been such as to deserve well of the
Republic. It will gratify me much if
ttw result shall show that my friends '
and neighbors, among whom my daily
Bfe is passed, shall testify their ap
proval of my unrequited labors on be
half of good government in a wider
sphere by giving me the simple testi- '
mnnial 01 their suffrages for the insig
Bificant office to which I have been noin
ted." A New Oown Saved Her Life. !
Clothes, since Eve set the fashion, J
have been so tremendously important in J
human affairs, anyway, that I believe j
that consideration of them consumes :

one subject. They make people do the !

other day whose presence of mind was
once the means of saving ever so many
lives. It happened in a little North
western town in a hall where an ama
teur company was giving some sort of a
performance you know how they do in
little towns. There was a smell of
smoke and somebody cried "Fire I"
There was an instant panic. The wo
man I speak of was at the piano. She
half rose to go, but, dropping back to
her seat, began to play fancy! "The

sailing out to everybody that there was
no danger. Of course she checked the
panic. I asked her about it the other
day.
"How did you feel?" I asked.
"My dear," said she, "I thought of
the. stairs we'd have to go down. I saw
I should be dragged with the crowd.
Then suddenly I remembered a brand

Utility of the Telephone.
We are only just beginning to realize
the full merits of the telephone. The
inhabitants of the little Massachusetts
town of Melrose seem to be somewhat
hvadvance of the rest of the world in
knowing how to get the most out of the
instrument.
In Melrose, the telephone exchange is
for the villagers a most effective bureau
of information. If the doctor is want
ed, the "central" is run? nn nnA hjA,bA I
to find out where he is and to intercept
him and give the required instructions
should he happen to be going his rounds.
If the butcher or the baker is wanted
for the purpose of receiving orders,
central is requested to let him know by
the next person passing that way.
If a clock runs down, and the time of
the day is wanted, central is applied to
and tells what it is, with the greatest
good nature. In fact, far from being
annoyed at, or Intolerant of these calls,
ths operator takes them as a matter of
course, and is only too glad to be able
to make the wheels of the little com
munity run so smoothly. The case is
interesting as suggesting an entirely
new and important development of the
telephone.
A Trolley at Every Door.
Electrio railroads are proving of great
benefit to the farmers in Maine. The
trolley lines run out from the large
cities and towns to villages far removed
from steam railroad communication,
and in several districts arrangements
are being made to run trolley milk
trains, vegetable trains and the like, to
enable the farmers to get their produce
quickly to market. It is even proposed
to run trolley coal trains, to supply coal
to small towns that now use only wood
for fuel.

State Democratic Committee Names Him
Presidential Candidate.
Its
The meeting of the Democratic
state committee at Harrisburg, Feb.
i , was larger than had been expect
td, over two-thirds of the committees
being present. The Allentown con
tingent, led by cx state chairman
Marshall Wright, started a boom for
their city as the proper place in which
to hold the next state convention,
which is to convene April 29, and
were so successful that only a half
dozen votes were recorded against it
in the committee meeting. Chairman
Robert Wright was greatly pleased at
the result, and said the Allentown
people would do great things in the
way of providing for the convention
and taking care of the delegates. He
said he expected a big and lively con
vention. National chairman Harrity
took no part in the selection of the
place, but said afterward that he
thought Allentown would suit every
body. There was not the slightest opposi
tion to the resolution endorsing Gov.
ernor Pattison for the Presidency,
presented by John Garman, member
of the committee from Luzerne. A
canvass of the committeemen here
previous to their meeting showed
that not only would there be no op
position to the resolution, but that it
would be cordially accepted. The
following is the text of the resolution.
" Resolved, That the Democratic
State central committee recommend
that the Democracy of Pennsylvania
present to the Democratic national
convention the name of ex-Governor
Robert E. Pattison as that of a strong
and available candidate for the Presi
dency. In character, in ability, in
official experience, in the fearful and
fearless discharges of public duties
Mr. Pattison is well equipped for the
high office for which we recommend
him : enjoying to the fullest extent
the confidence of the people, because
of his steadfast adherence to the cause
of good government, his selection as
the standard-bearer of the Demo
cratic party would be met with gener
ous and enthusiastic approval. Sound
in Democratic principles, his leader
ship would be such that all true
Democrats might safely follow."
Mr. Harrity said: "In my judg
ment the action of the Democratic
state central committee but reflects
the sentiment of the Democracy of
Pennsylvania. Liovernor Pattison is
unquestionably the strongest Demo
crat in the State, and has the confi
dence of the people of Pennsylvania,
irrespective of party, to a degree be
yond that of any other Pennsylva
nian. From what I have heard
since I came from Harrisburg there
is not likely to be any opposition to
his endorsement in the coming Demo
cratic State convention. If there
should be opposition, those in the
movement will be found to be a small
minority of the convention. My be
lief is that Gov. Pattison will be cor
dially endorsed by the Democratic
state convention, and will receive the
loyal support of the Pennsylvania
delegation, to the Democratic national
convention."
At the State convention at Al
lentown, April 29, there will be nomi
nated two candidates for congressmen
at-large and select 3a presidential
electors and 64 candidates to the
national convention.

Republican Extravagance Not Checked by
Scarcity of Funds.
The Republican State Treasury is
nearly empty, and Philadelphia has
long been denied the $1,000,000 or
so due that city, but scarcity of funds
has not checked the work of caring
for the official ease at the Capitol.
Captain Delaney, Superintendent of
Public Grounds and Buildings, reports
that the Lieutenant Governor's new
apartments will be about completed
within a fortnight. They will be the
handsomest suite on the Hill, and
during sessions of the Legislrture will
be used by the Senators as a private
place for consultation or rest. A pri
vate elevator will connect the Senate
Chamber, which is just beneath it.
The Governor's private room has also
been fitted up very handsomely.
Hereafter, for all public receptions
and all entertainments given to the
Legislature, heads of departments,
etc., in fact, for all social functions
save those of a purely private nature,
the Executive Mansion will not be
used any more. The large and hand
some apartments of the Governor in
the new building will be used instead.
The large reception-room will be used
as a ball-room. The bills lor frescoing
and refurnishing the executive depart
ments and the executive mansion will
be very large.
In the meantime money used for
the current year has been borrowed
from next year's appropriation.

WASHINGTON
From our Kegulnr Correspondent.
Washington, Fcb'y. 24, 1896.
Senator Hill is on the right tack in
his attacks upon the abuse of the
right of petition to Congress. It has
been made a cheap way of getting
notoriety for this or that organization
to send out thousands of printed pe
titions to be signed and sent to Sena
tors and Representatives with the
request that they be presented to
Congress, knowing that when so pre
sented the titles of the petitions and
the purpose for which they are sent
would be read in open session and
printed in the Record and in many
newspapers, senator liill proposes
to at least partially reform this abuse
by having the petitions handed to the
clerk of the Senate who will put them
on file, instead of their being formally
presented by senators, as now.
The republicans are still unable to
do anything with their tariff bill.
Senator Carter, who voted against
taking it up the other day, has given
notice of his intention to move that
the bill be sent back to the Finance
committee for further consideration.
ine matter was Drought up at a
joint caucus of republican senators
and Representatives, held last week,
but nothing was decided upon.
The McKinley men declare the
sudden epidemic of candidacy fever
among republican Senators and ex
Senators is nothing more nor less
than an attempt to make a combina
tion of the field against McKinley,
and there is apparently foundation for
the declaration. The Quay-Platt-Reed
combine seems to have become
afraid that McKinley might get nomi
nated on the first ballot if they didn't
cut up the vote. They found plenty
of willing tools in the Senate, where
McKinley has not one single sincere
friend, and the vote will be cut up.
Senator Vest, of Mo., is not one of
the professional " funny " men of
the benate, but he knows how to
raise a laugh with the best -of them
when he wishes. An instance show
ing this fact was given last week. Mr.
Vest was making a few remarks when
Senator Teffer got up and began to
address the chair. By the time Sena-
( tor Vest had turned his eyes npon his
j whiskers Senator Sherman was also
I on his feet and addressing the chair.
" Mr. President," shouted Senator
Vest several times without attracting
the chairman's attention, and then he
asked if he might make a parlamen
tary inquiry. That caught the chair
man's attention, who at once said :
" The gentleman from Mo., will state
it." Mr. Vest then said with much
solemnitp : " I believe I was ad
dressing the Senate, and had the
floor, but it seems that I have no
longer got it. If I can't get it in any
other way, I rise to a parlamentary
inquiry to find out how I lost it." A
titter ran around the Senate, Mr.
Sherman apologized for his interrup
tion, Mr. Peffer sat down, and Mr.
Vest proceeded with his remarks.
Secretary Morton's dinner to Presi
dent and Mrs. Cleveland, last week,
has been widely discussed on account
of the original manner in which the
table was decorated. 'A big plow
made of red carnations was the cen
ter piece of the table, and upon each
side of it were hay stacks made of
yellow spun sugar, under which were
piles of vegetables and farm imple
ments all made of sugar. At each of
the four corners of the table was a
wheelbarrow made of candy cabbages,
containing confections in the shape of
vegetables and fruits. The ices were
served in candy hay wagons, and the
punch in little cups made to imitate
apples, peaches and pears, and the
individual dishes for the stewed terra
pin were china terrapins. This was
the last of the formal cabinet dinners
for this season.
Mr. C. F. Huntincton can talk a
Congressman wearv on the benefits nf
his proposal to extend the debt due
me government from the Pacific
Railroads one hundred years at 2 rer
cent, but when it comes to giving
substantial information as to the
actual workings of the roads he is
about as poor a witness as could be
lounu. senator Morgan is proving
himself a thorn in the side of Mr.
Huntington, by driving the. railroad
macnets into a corner with his nerti.
nent questions, but about all that Mr.
Morgan nas yet been able to show is
that Mr. Huntington could tell mur.h
that would throw light upon the sub
ject it he would. Washington is fairly
swarming with Huntington's lobbyists,
determined to buy every Congression
al vote that is purchasable, either
with money or other commodities,
and to bulldoze, aye and even black
mail, those who stand out against
their persuasions. A man who knows,
I think, says private detectives are
shadowing the movements of every
Senator and Representative who
is known to oppose Huntington's
scheme, for the purpose of getting
evidence which can be used to con
trol his vote. Some of the Congress
men who have indicated friendliness
to. the Huntington scheme are living
higher that ever before in tKeir lives
and it isn't costing them a cent.

The Locomotive Whistle.
When locomotives were first built
and began to trundle their small loads
up and down the newly and rudely
constructed railways of England, the
public roads were for the greatest part
crossed at grade, and the engine driv
er had no way of giving warning of
his approach except by blowing a tin
horn. But this, as may be imagined,
was far from being a sufficient warning.
One day in the year 1833, so runs
a story of the origin of the locomotive
whistle, . a farmer of Thornton was
crossing the railway track on one of
the country'roads with a load of eggs
and butter. Just as he came upon
the track a train approached. The
engine man blew his tin horn lustily,
but the farmer did not hear it. Eighty
dozen of eggs and fifty pounds of but
ter were smashed into an indistinguish
able and unpleasant mass, and mingled
with the kindling wood to which the
wagon was reduced. The railroad
company had to pay the farmer the
value of his fifty pounds of butter, his
960 eggs, his horse and his wagon.
It was regarded as a very serious
matter, and straightway a director of
the company went to Acton Grange,
where George Stephenson lived, to
see if he could not invent something
that would give a warning more likely
to be heard. Stephenson went to
work, and the next day had a con
trivancet which, when attached to the
engine boiler and the steam turned
on, gave out a shrill discordant sound.
The railway directors," greatly delight
ed, ordered similar contrivances to be
attached to all the locomotives, and
from that day to this the voice of the
locomotive whistle has never been
silent. Cassier's Magazine.
