Hon. Charles W. Stone.
The Press takes a pardonable '
pride this week in republishing an i
article which lately appeared in |
the Bradford Era. concerning the J
Hon. ('. W. Stone, of Warren |
count}', who is a candidale for re- I
election to the I nited States Con- I
gress. The editor of the Press is 1
under obligations to Congressman
Stone for favors rendered at a time |
when the Cleveland administration |
attempted to "butcher" the vet- i
erans of the late war of the Rebel- ;
lion and but for his timely aid our '
name would now be ''Dennis" 011 j
the pension rolls of the United i
States. Congressman Stone was |
our friend then, and he is still the j
friend of every deserving veteran (
of the war which tried mens souls, j
True, we suffered 110 such hard- j
ships as the boys who faced Spanish ;
bullets, as the ice cream and cake j
always reached the front 011 time i
during those trying days, and the
rattle cars in which we were trans- i
ported to the front contained all j
the luxuries of the times, acourtesv '
which lias not been extended to the I
fellows who are howling about I
hardtack, beans and pork.—Port j
Allegany Press.
One flore Swallow Friction.
I)i'. Swallow lias Jilied the State
with his cries of criminal wrong
doings by State Officials. He has
charged them with every crime,
from incendiarism—the burning of
the Capitc* building—to petty
larceny—the stealing of old furni
ture. His charges have been broad,
his facts meagre, and his proof
absolutely non-existent. Yet he
declares lie has "convicting evi
dence" which he carefully conceals.
Why does he conceal it? Probably
because lie has none to present.
Several weeks since Colonel Stone
pertinently suggested in writing to
Dr. Swallow, that if he had evi
dence that would show probable
cause for the charges of grave
Grimes he has been making, it was
his duty, not only as an ordained
minister of the gospel, but as a
good citizen, to lay such evidence
before the district attorney of
Dauphin county for action by the
grand jury. In reply to this appo
site suggestion Dr. Swallow wrote
Colonel Stone:
"Now, Colonel, you arealawyer,
you are more; a lawmaker in one
branch of the highest lawmaking
body of the nation, and yet you
evidently don't know that a pri
vate individual cannot bring suit
•gainst State officials for malfea
sance in office; that a grand jury
?annot hear his testimony, and the
district attorney cannot prosecute
the ease unless it originates and lie
presented for the Attorney-* Jenem!
of the State, as I am informed l>v
well read lawyers."
This preposte.ious statement of
the law was received with general
ridicule. The suggestion that ni>
OIK 1 can prosecute thieves who !
steal from the State, except the j
Attorney-General, was so absurd j
that only the evidence furnished hy j
Dr. Swallow's written statement j
could convince anyone that the I
idea had birth in l)r. Swallow's i
abnormal imagination. Of course,
no "well-read lawyers" had in- ;
formed him. Even the char-woman
around a law oflicc would writhe if j
such information were attributed |
to her. Hut then, Dr. Swallow, in
the same letter, as though he lie- ;
lieved in his own ridiculous state- j
nient of the law relative to thievery j
from the State, goes 011 to sav that !
I
he lias many times importuned the i
Attorney—General to proceed
against the State thieves, and lias :
offered to submit his "convicting |
evidence." The ordinary citizen j
thinks that if Dr. Swallow has j
"convicting evidence," lie ought to
submit it.and not talk so much j
about doing so. But Attorney-Gen- ;
oral McCormickhasevidently taken j
Dr. Swallow's statement about im- |
portuning him seriously, and treats |
it as worthy of reply; for he thus j
addresses Governor Hastings:
"I believe it to be due to you |
and to the public, as well as to my- |
self, to say that the candidate [Dr.
Swallow] referred to, has never, j
directly or indirectly, mentioned 1
the subject to me, and, of course, j
has furnished not a syllable of evi-
deuce to sustain any charge that lie
lias made; nor has he, in any of liis
public utterances, shown that he
possessed any evidence that would
lie adniissable in any court in any
civilized country in the world."
Such a stinging rehuke would not
be accepted in silence by Dr. Swal
low did lie not know that his charge
which brought it forth is baseless
and that the rebuke itself is well
deserved—lfarrisburg Telegraph.
Stone or Jenks--Which ?
So far as Dr. Swallow as a hope
ful candidate is concerned, he need
be given 110 further consideration,
says the Philadelphia Inquirer.
Me is beaten.
He has failed to arouse any
enthusiasm in the western counties.
His strength lies almost wholly in
a few of the eastern countiee and is
steadily waning. All the reports
show this, lie is a disturbing fac
tor, but is third in the race.
The time has come for all Repub
licans who have been blinded by
the extravagances of the Swallow
cratic or Wanamaker orators to
think deeply before tli£y vote.
Swallow cannot be elected, but a
vote for him, by withdrawing it
from the Republican party, is half
a vote for Jenks.
Citizens of Pennsylvania, either
Colonel Stone or Mr. Jenks will be
elected Governor. Do you want
Jenks?
Think of this, Republican voters.
Jenks—the free trader, the rank
free silverite, the opponent of Mc
kinley's Spanish policy—do you
want him?
Remember that if he could be
elected his success would inevitab
ly carry several members of Con
gress, including, possibly, a United
States Senator.
Do the business men of Penn
sylvania desire to revive the issues
of free trade and free silver in Con
gress and thus make them the fea
tures of the Presidential battle of
1900?
Do they dare to take this great
risk?
The contest in New York is close
and doubtful. Tammany controls
the city because of a split in the
Republican party at the last May
oralty election. It is reaching out
for the State.
Let the Democrats carry New
York and Pennsylvania and the
lloodgates of silver oratory will be
opened wide, Bryanism will become
rampant, and two years hence will
menace the country at the Presi
dential election.
In 1.582 the Democrats carried
Pennsylvania and elected Pattison
Governor. What was the result?
Clevland was elected President
in 1884.
In 185)0 the Democrats again
carried Pennsylvania. The In
quirer sounded the warning, as it
is doing to-day, that Democratic
victory meant danger to the Na
tion. What was the result?
Cleveland was elected President
in 1892 and inaugurated the soup
house industry and closed the mills
and all but ruined the country.
History repeate itself. I land
Pennsylvania over to the Demo
crats in 1898, and Republican busi
ness men will invite the Bryan
whirl-wind in 1900.
Haven't we had enough of Demo
cracy? Come, haven't we? We
put the question in all the earnest
ness of its extreme gravity. Dare
you take the chances?
The campaign which has been
CAMERON COUNTY PRESS, THURSDAY, OCTOBER 27, 1898.
waged against the Republican party
is little short of infamous. It has
depended upon malice, misrepre
sentation and downright and will
ful falsification. Doubtless it has
deceived many a voter. Yet out
of the sorry mess of slander and
abuse the Republican candidates
arise clean, honest and unassail
able.
If the Republican party has such
candidates, men above reproach,
why follow the reckless mouthings
of disappointed ambitions and elect
I )emocrats?
Either William A. Stone, the
soldier, or <ieorge A. .Jenks. whose
love for the soldier was so great
that in ls<>4 he opposed the legisla
tion permitting the soldier to vote,
will lie elected Governor. There is
110 escape from this.
The election of Stone means safe
ty to the Stale and Nation. The
election of Jenks means the revival
of Bryanism in its most blatant
form. Choose between them.
President McKinley in his recent
speeches appeals for unity. The
whole policy of the administration
is at stake in this fall's elections.
Shall Republican Pennsylvania
refuse to heed (lie call of this great
leader?
Shall Pennsylvania send word to
McKinley on the night of election:
'•We have decided to try Bryan''?
The loss of Pennsylvania and
New York would be accepted by
all the world as a repudiation of
the President.
Think well of this, Republicans
of Pennsylvania.
Hon. Joseph Sibley might point
to his record while in Congress
under Cleveland. It was certainly
startling, to say the least. If peo
ple examaine his record and that
of Hon. ('has. \V. Stone's they will
be convinced as to which is the
better man to represent them.—

Buoklon's Arnica Salve.

v3l-n4O-Iy
Dr. Bull's Cough Syrup is a very ef
ficient remedy. For coughs and colds
it has 110 equal. It is good for aduits
and children. For croup and whooping
coughs it is invaluable.
A. Clever Trick.

Kidneys, Malaria or nervous trroble.
We mean he can cure himself right
away by taking Electric Bitters. This
medicine tones up the whole system,
acts as a stimulant to Liver and Kid
neys, is a blood purifier and nerve
tonic. It cures Constipation, Head
ache, Fainting Spells, Sleeplessness and
Melancholy. It is purely vegetable, a
mild laxative, and restores the system
to its natural vigor. Try electric Bit
ters and be convinced that they are a
miracle worker. Every bottle guaran
teed. Only 50c a bottle at L. Taggart's
Drug Store.
Jacob Schleicher Coxey announces
that he is out of politics forever. The
announcement was unnecessary. No
one suspected that he was in.
Millions Oiven Away.
It is certainly gratifying to the pub
lic to know of one concern in the land
who are not afraid to be generous to
the needy and suffering. The proprie
tors of Dr King's New Discovery for
Consumption, Coughs and Colds, have
given away over ten million trial bot
tles of this great medicine; and have
the satisfaction of knowing it has abso
lutely cured thousands of hopeless cases
of Astbama,Bronchitis, Hoarseness and
all diseases of the throat, Chest and
Lungs are surely cured by it. Call on
L Taggart Druggist, and get a trial
