Philadelphia, Oct. 2. As patriotism,
according to old Ben Jonson, la the last
rofURe of a, scoundrel, bo the waving of
the flag and an appeal to the martial
spirit of the electors la the final re
source of the Quay machine driven to
bnjr nnd watting for the fatal shot to
be fired into Its gangrened carcass.
It is no secret that Boss Quay was
seriously thinking of nn abandonment
of his originally proposed "rally 'round
the flag, boys," and God-bless-McKin-ley
campaign, suppressing the leather
lung and brass throated stump scream
erpreferring to trust his luck to the
Indifference of the people and on the
principle illustrated by the follow'ng
story:
"Dad," said the youthful citizen of
Dead Man's Oulch, "thar's a big rat
tlesnake under the bed." "All right,"
replied the old man, composedly, "Jlst
let him stay thar kase ef you pester
the varmlt he'll Bpring his rattle and
wake yer mom, and then thar'll be the
devil to pay."
But a howl of protest wentupagalnst
a Quaker meetin' campaign from
county chairmen and local candi
dates. In a great many counties
that contain the seeds of revolution
that were planted at previous upris
ings against the Republican machine
the Insurgents are either sullen or
openly threatening, making things look
as blue as indigo for the county tickets.
The party henchmen and the nervous
candidates, therefore, stretched out
their hands to the boss, appealing like
shipwrecked mariners for him tothrow
out the life line or Davy Jones' locker
or Mr. McOlnty's mishap would be
their fate.
BRING FORTH THE STARRY FLAG.
Hence, It has been decided to at
tempt to arouse the dormant party
spirit and to Imnrun tha liiVrairni
Republicans with the fearful import
unes 01 paying a visit to the polls and
Toting early and often that tha im
perialistic policy of McKinley and
Hnnna of making American citizens of
the Filipinos with the aid of Krag
Jorgensen bullets may be upheld in
cidentally and Outtv
tain the keys of the atate treasury
vaults.
Keening the martini nt flnttrn
flag campaign ever In view Chairman
Keedor has been directed to turn Colo
nel Barnett loose and allow him to
"wing around the elreln " Tun mili
tary parties of campaign orators have
uen organised to sally forth from
Harrlsburg, one headed by the youth
ful Barnett and Including a mmhu
the membera of the Tenth regiment
wno mieno to Tote for the colonel
for state treasurer and tht. nth or
posed of professional
swashbucklers like General Gobln and
Colonel Tom Stewart. This last band
of grim warriors wear the service
stripes of long and patient office hold
ing. Gobln as a political Poo Bah, like
old Sol GUI' watch, Is "equaled by
few and excelled by none," and can
be depended upon implicitly to "put
his foot" in it by making some bad
break of speech, as he did during the
senatorial deadlock last spring anl
again at the Williams' Grove Grancor
picnic.
Colonel Tom Stewart's greed for of
fice is not yet appeased, anu he has
a latest patent lightning rod up In
hope that the next governorship will
strike him. Colonel Stewart was a
warrior of great prowess in the ciTll
war. A story Is related of him. At
the first day's fight at Gettysburg Tom
had piled the rebel dead in a great
heap under the withering fire of his
Springfield, when the attention of his
colonel was attracted to his fearful
execution. The colonel riding up to
him and pointing to the pyramid of
his slain said: "Tom, cease firing and
to home; you've killed enough."
WELL, WHY DIDN'T HE REMAIN?
This martial array of shoulder strap
ped and gold laced orators Is cunning
ly intended to divert the attention of
the ring enslaved people from the
home Issues that directly concern them
most. It is the ingenious policy of
Kuropean rulers and statesmen when
their people become unrestful and
threaten to bring out the block and the
ax to divert their minds from their
domestic troubles with a comic opera
imbroglio with some obliging power.
This Is what Quay, orafty and foxy, is
doing, but the Democratic leaders and
candidates mean to keop him to Ma
mutton.
It will be interesting to note Colonel
Barnett's clarion voice ringing out that
a vote for Colonel Barnett Is n vote to
sustain the Hanna-McKlnley subjuga
tion of the Philippines In direct contra
vention of the Immortal aphorism of
the constitution of the United States
that "all men are created free and
equal."
If it Is essential that Pennsylvania
Shall vote to keep Quay's stock spec
ulative grip on the state treasury In
order to sustain the American position
In the Orient why wss it that Colonel
Barnett deemed It wise and pntrlotlc
to return to bis native shores from tha
Philippines, and thin wuilmn tha
hands of President McKinley? Colonel
uarneu iiau trie opportunity of re-enlisting
In Manila, but he preferred his
Blnckstone to n sword; he preferred
running for office In Pcnr.rlHia to
running after the Filipinos with a gun
in his hand. Then, too, the state
treasurer should be a. business man.
Colonel Barnett Is a gallant soldier,
who braved Mauser bullets and dlnease
In the far off swamps of Luzon, but
because he is a soldier unrl n Inwvar
sans a practice or reputation, dos not
prove mm possessed or the qualifica
tions of a financier. But right here, it
may be. Is where Gene.rnl finldn'a at.
planation will fit as a piece of Joiner
woik. ma ttmec snatching fioldn con
fenscd to tho grangers at the William's
Urove DiC'llC that "th atlltn frroMunrnii ,
Is only a clerk." Colonel Harnett :
mlpht, rs state trepsurer, make rt.
excellert find rntli.frrtory clerk for his
bosi, which Hit name Is Qucy, but tl-.e
contention, ef the Democrat Is to ele
vate this oi.'ico fro:n the lot of a men
Clerk Into a cliynlf.od state officln',
who v.-ill ov.m himself, nnd will cirry
out his r."i!nit:n j ldras to the peopla
and "open the books."
HirrODROMING THE TENTH.
Eenntor Quay could fever be Induced
to persuade President McKinley to
make the lata Colonel Hawkins, the
heroic commander of the Tenth regi
ment, and who "died with his boots
on," a brigadier ger.ernl. But Quay hrt
no qualms about hlppodroming Colo
nel Hawkins' r'gtmont and exhibiting
It as a Barntim's show to save his own
hide and tallow.
There should have been enough pa
triotism among the money kings of
Plttshurg and Its wealthy vicinity to
have paid the bills for Rending the
"Fighting Tenth" to New York's Jubi
lation over Admiral Dewey. It is no
torious, however, that the Republican
state committee a la .Tones, "paid tha
freight," not so much to exhibit the
kin burned heroes In the nt reels of New
York as to to display them as Philip
pine curios and as an advertisement
through the state of Pennsylvania and
in Philadelphia for tho Republican
state ticket and Colonel Barnett for
state treasurer.
However, let this political trick pass
for whatever It may be worth. The
"sojer boys were cheered and feasted
and champagned and kinged by good
looking young girls, husged by older
ones nnd divided the honors of the
New York Jubilee with the hero of
Manila bay himself. While the Tenth
was In Philadelphia Individual mem
bers were Interviewed as to the reports
that had been In private circulation
that Colonel Barnett Is unpopular
In the regiment. It was established
that the gallant colonel is the unfortu
nate victim of cephalic elephantlasns,
or Napoleonic head, and Is a bit of a
martinet, which frequently accompa
nies this malady.
His men resented his treatment of
them, and his Indifference to their
comfort and well being. They recall
that while they were fighting Colonel
Barnett was recruiting In the United
States. It was also proven by these
interviews what Congressman Acheson
maintained In protesting to Quay
against Colonel Barnett's selection for
state treasurer, that the bulk cf the
Tenth regiment would oppose him and
vote against him. So unpopular Is the
colonel In western Ponnaylvanla,
where he has the reputation of having
for years kicked against the regular
Republican org:-Miation. that the state
committee will keep him campaiglng
on the eastern side of the Alleghenles,
leaving "the warriors bold" Gobln
nnd Stewart to drape themselves In
the folds of the American flag on the
other side of the mountains and shout
for lead and sword as the true gospel
of American civilization and citizen
ship for the niggers of the Philippines.
MARTIN GIVES A CRUMB OF COM
FORT. State Senator David Martin, the In
surgent chieftain of Philadelphia, has
created more than a flutter In the Quay
dovecote by an Interview, in which he
makes the prediction that a light vote
will be polled at the November elec
tion, and says the hlppodroming of the
Tenth regiment is a mistake and will
react. This Is significant, coming from
a politician of Martin's Importance and
girth, since It means that tho anti
Quay insurgents have an understand
ing that they will go fishln' on eloc
tlon day. This "wise man of the eaRt"
also ventures the assertion that the
vote that will go into the Philadelphia
boxes will be honest, and that, better
still. It will oe honestly counted by the
professional lightning calculators.
AND STONE SAYS TRUSTS ARE
BLESSINGS.
There are two conspicuous land
marks on the Delaware river front that
command the eye of the traveler one
being In Philadelphia and the other In
Camden. Massive, towering buildings,
they are, and yet with no sign of life
or activity about them. They are Idle
suger re-flnTles. The Philadelphia one
is the oldHnvemeyerplant that In other
days gave employment to a thousand
men and kept a fleet of vessels busy
bringing from the West Indies raw
suger to Its wharf. The Camden con
cern was never in operation a single
day. These aro silent telltales of the
greed of the sugar trust that acquired
them only to shut them up that the
production of refined sugar could be
curtailed and the market manipulated.
Giving these fine propejtles over to
the bats has deprived thousands of
willing men of employment, has raised
the price of sugar to the consumer and
cheated the communities in which they
stand of millions of dollars' worth of
business. And yet Quay's governor has
the audacity to declare over his own
signature that trusts are blessings and
are not a political Issue.
A BOSS MAKES POLITICS PAY.
Practical politics as a pursuit must
be profitable, after all, when exception
able advantages can be commanded.
Here Is Colonel Quay, for Instance,
who has been receiving a salary of
but $5,000 per year as a senator of the
United States, and who mnlntuln
homes In Washington, In Beaver, in
Lancaster and In Florida, and rents
cottages at tho seashore. He has Just
directed the secretary of the treasury
to transfer to his son, Major Quay,
late Df the regular army and who waa
educated at West Point at the public
cxpenso, $100,000 worth of United
States 4 per cent bonds, while ho has
added an adjolnlna farm to his Lan
caster plantation, paying $187 per aero.
Surely Colonel Quay has other sources
of revenue than the salary of a United
States senator, and which has now
ceased. .
QUAY & CO. FAVOR TRUSTS.
Governor Stone's unqualified en
dorsement cf trusts is diiectly in har
mony with the record of his party In
the legislature. For years it bus ob
stinately rofused to spread a law on
tho statutes thst could not be driven
through villi a delivery wagon, wiping
out the "phirlr-me" storo, the ctirna oi
the ruining find great industrial con

ever, In a BO'intM committee, and no
toriously so, for cash, although no
rneamire In years bad been so stoutly
doinandod and so largely petitioned for.
Yes, the Republican party as con
ducted by Quay & Co. has a great
respect for trusts nd no respect at
all for the common people who suffer
from them.
HOW NAPOLEON QUAY AND THE
REAL NAPOLEON DIFFER.
The admirers of Matthew Stanley
Quay love to compare him with Na
poleon, and like Napoleon he has had
his Waterloo and his St. Holena. How
often do we hear Quay exploited by
writers and speakers as the Napoleon
of politics, although he has repeatedly
lost his state, which boasts of 350.000
Republican majority, while his Na
poleonic genius failed when confront
ed with the task of re-olectlng himself
in the face of an organized opposition
to the senate of the United States. But
there is one material point wherein
Napoleon Quay differs with Napoleon
Bonaparte, and that is in the matter
of trusts. The commercial trust Is not
a new thing under the sun. The East
India company and the Hudson Bay
company wore the first trusts of which
the modern world has knowledge.
Their home was in England. Their
success excited the cupidity of the
world's financiers. Napoleon, when in
the hey-day of his civic power in
France, was compelled to give thom
attention. He had founded the great
silk mills of Lyons and had Inaugu
rated a policy for the preservation of
the forests, which were coveted, while
the government was pressed on all
sides by private capitalists to sur
render franchises. Napoleon summon
ed the greatest lawyers of Europe to
Paris and submitted to them the ques
tion whether trusts were a blessing to
the people or a bane to the state. This
distinguished conclave concluded that
trusts were both dangerous and unlaw
ful, whereupon Napoleon drove them
out of France, which is one country in
Europe where they have never been
able to obtain a foothold. John Rus
sell Young, the historian of General
Grant's trip around the world, wrote
in the New York Herald of Quay vot
ing alone in the United States senate
to save the sugar trust. When by
that act of Quay this despicable trust
is saved then it is the gravest of
fense against Pennsylvania since Dal
las, by his casting vote, passed the tar
iff of the Polk administration. The
trusts have no more servile slave than
Matthew Stanley Quay, the people no
greater enemy. '
THE BOSS WON'T VOTE HIS OWN
TICKET.
Colonel Quay, the chief stoker of the
Republican machine, will not even
take the trouble to cast his vote for
the ticket that he has made. When
the November election comes he will
be idling in his bungalow on the In
dian river, Florida. Colonel Quay has
arranged a pair with a well known
Democratic newspaper man of Phila
delphia. This indifference of the boss
will not be permitted to pass without
notice, and thousands of disgusted Re
publicans will follow his distinguished
example, only they will not put them
selves to the trouble of hunting up
Democrats to pair with them.
THE PROHIBITIONISTS KICK.
The People, of Milton, the state or
gan of the Prohibitionists, hna a true
conception of the appalling frauds at
the elections thut are committed by
the Quay machine in Philadelphia. It
grumbles: "Philadelphia's farcical
registration goes on piling up the
names of voters. The whole proceed
ing Is utterly ridiculous. The "returns"
of the assessors show that there are
SIS, 151 voters in the city, an Increase
of 1,103 over the return in May. State
Chairman Jones, of the Prohibition
t arty, proved that dead men, unknown
men, unnaturalized persons and end
less classes of individuals were put
down simply that their names might be
voted on by repeaters. Yet the as
sessors, who are the products of the
rotten system, go on finding houses
full of voters that have no existence.
The frauds perpetrated in Philadelphia
as a result of padded and wrongly
made up assessors' lists are greater
than any city in the Union ever dream
ed of. Yet when an amendment to
the constitution was proposed in orde
to give an honest registration law
Governor Stone vetoed it."
WHY DIDN'T THEY GO?
Nearly 200 men of the Tenth regi
ment declined the invitation of the
Republican state committee extended
through Colonel Barnett to visit New
York at its expense and incidentally
act as a political "ad." for Colonel
Barnett. There must be some em
balmed beef at the bottom of the bar'l
when so big a percentage of a regi
ment's membership thus snubs Its
commander.
IN THE COUNTERFEITING BUSI
NESS, i
The Republican city committee of.
Philadelphia some years ago had a
counterfeit lithographic plate made
from which to print bogus poll tax
receipts. These receipts, which are
sold by tho city for 60 cents each, con
stituted an onerous burden on the Re
publican campaign fund, so the coun
terfeiter's art was resorted to. Thou
sands of these spurious receipts are
printed in each campaign, and the city
cheated out of thousands of dollars.
This is a pretty business for the party'
of God and morality to be enguged lii
counterfeiting.
Insurgent Leader Martin's dash of
chilled water on the Quay machine's
prospects raised the goose flosh on tho
epidermis of the Quayltes, and they
been me panic stricken and threaten
ed with heart failure and ' collapsa,
when Director Brown, of Pittsburg,
Sne of the machine's big wigs, supple
mented with thia bull's eye shot:
"This hlppodroming of the state with'
military parties lu it political earn,
paign is nil nonsense. It is worse, for
it. will lose votes. Inntead of sonding
out two bands of soldlrs to make
epcclaculur display and appeal to the
war feeling or hero-worship of the
mas.ios, the campaign should bo made
on principle and the ponding public
Issues be discussed in an Intelligent
l.nd dlsnitlcd manner."

The romantic story of the capture
of Frances Slocuni by the Indians
at Wyoming in 1774 is a well
known matter of history. Interest
in it is now being revived by the
statement that the people of Indiana
have started to raise funds to build
a monument over her grave near
Reserve, Ind. Annual assemblages
are to be held in the Miami burying
ground where she lies, at which
prominent men of the state will be
invited to speak and subscriptions
will be taken to add to the fund. It
was a roving band of Miamis that
carried Frances off, and years after
ward when she was discovered by
her brothers she had become so at
tached to her wild, roving life that
nothing would induce her to leave
her dusky friends. She married an
Indian, raised lour children, and
died in 1847, respected alike by
whites and Indians. AVw Age.
Authorities of different cities and
towns hereabouts have been noti
fied to keep on the lookout for seven
Indian boys, who ran away front
the Carlisle school last week.
