Gooil Price fur a Husband.
Quotations on husbands have been
sharp'y bid up by the action of Henry
Croley, jt Lasalle, N. Y. lie will pay,
reports a local exchange, $50,000 in
sash to any acceptable man who will
marry his daughter, and has made the
matter public through the newspapers.
The method choseu is a matter that
concerns no one but the parties inter
ested. If Mr. and Miss Croley prefer
husband hunting with $50,000 pro
jectiles to ensnaring men in the or
dinary way, no one has any right to
criticise. 15ut there is a public ques
tion involved, and one that furnishes
an interesting line of speculation.
Husbands not being listed on the stock
exchanges and their sale being infre
quent, even on the curb, the query nat
urally arises just how much virtue, in
dustry and ability Mr. Croley is entitled
to receive for his money. In the open
market $50,000 will buy a considerable
amount of industry. It would not re
quire a drng to carry home the virtue
that could be obtained for the price,
but still there would be enough to make
a showing, while ability, too, is reason
ably cheap. But, while one may obtain
a considerable amount of any one of
these three qualities at the upset price,
a combination of all is rare and apt to
be expensive. It is doubtful if Mr.
Croley, for the money appropriated,
can secure a really first-class article
in the husband line.
It is seldom that a negro leaves a
large estate, and very seldom that he
leaves any part of it to the public or be
nevolent institutions. The unfortunate
conditions which surround colored peo
ple in the United States are largely re
sponsible for this, says Leslie's Weekly.
An exception to the rule, however, is
to be noticed in Boston. The will of
Frederic G. Barbadoes, a wealthy ne
gro who died in that city several weeks
ago, was recently filed for probate, and
it was found that the bulk of his estate
was distributed in bequests of from
$250 to SI,OOO each to various colored
homes, asylums and churches, mostly
in Washington. He made 30 or 40 per
sonal bequests to relatives and friends,
and left the residue of the estate to the
Tuskegee university of Alabama, the
Lincoln university of Pennsylvania and
Manassas institute, Virginia.
It is reported that there is a farmer
named Rogers out in Indiana who pos
sessed a Jersey cow, which he used to
drive, morning and evening, to and
from the pasture, not far from his
home. One morning, as one of his
neighbors was passing along the road,
he met Mr. Rogers walking in the mid
dle of the lane, his mind apparently
engrossed with some weighty ques
tion. The neighbor called out: "Good
morning, Mr. Rogers. Where are you
going?" "Why," said Mr. Rogers, in a
surprised way, "I'm driving this cow
to the pasture," and he waved his hand
toward where the cow ought to have
been. "Well, where is the cow?" asked
the friend. "1 suppose I forgot to let
her out of the barn," answered Mr.
Rogers humbly, as he realized his posi
tion. And he had.
An amusing incident happened in
one of the prominent uptown hotels in
IV'ew York the other afternoon, when a
well-dressed woman, about six feet
high, rushed up to the desk and impor
tuned the head clerk to find her hus
band, who had become lost. There was
a search, and in a few minutes the
diminutive partner —for he was only
three feet high—of her joys and sor
rows was found. In full hearing of the
hotel help and guests she lectured her
midget husband severely for getting
lost, concluding by informing him that
had she not been so careless as to leave
the railroad tickets to Cleveland in his
keeping she would have left him be
hind. The husband looked as if he were
sorry that she had not executed the
threat.

BRYANISM AND BUSINESS.
rho Democrotie Policy In Always
A ten ihn t the Ilrst Inl»*r«-*lw of
the Country,
In an Austin dispatch to the St. Louis
Republic, a democratic newspaper, a
correct notion is unconsciously given
of the position of the democratic party
as to business interests. The anti-trust
bill which was passed by the Arkansas
legislature in spite of the opposition of
business men is now before the Texas
legislature. Thus does the chase against
the octopus leap over state boundaries.
Here is the effect which the new
trust measure produces upon the Texas
business men:
"This morning's train brought hundreds
of business men from every section of the
state to make personal appeals to the mem
bers of the legislature not to pass the
bill. In addition, appeals from every sec
tion of the state by mail and telegraph
continued to pour in upon the members
asking that the bill be killed. Fire in
surance men swarmed into see that they
were eliminated from the provisions of
the bill."
In Cisco some merchants "publicly
stated that they were in favor of tarring
anil feathering any member of the leg
islature who voted for the anti-trust
law." So strong is the hostility of Texas
business men to the bill.
While they were denouncing it and
preparing to fight it the speaker of the
Texas house of representatives got this
telegram from the democrats in tjie
Arkansas house of representatives:
"The house of representatives of the Ar
kansas legislature await with anxiety the
vote on your anti-trust bill. It tends tn
redeem democratic pledges. The hearts of
th* masses go out to you."
Business men may protest and busi
ness inav suffer, but the democratic
WANTED—A LEADER.
party must carry out its programme of
hostility to property. Business and
the democratic party are deadly ene
mies.
Wherever the democrats have the
power they show by legislation, and
wherever they have not t lie power they
show by proposed legislation, or by
demagogic speeches, that the democrat
ic policy is war against business,
against capital. From the Crokeritcs
in the New York legislature to the Bry
anites ill the Arkansas legislature, this,
with less and greater degrees of sin
cerity and effectiveness, is the demo
cratic idea at present.
A party that makes war on business;
that is the democracy to-day. It is
strange that any sane human being
should believe that a party can prosper
by attacking the prosperity of the
country.—X. Y. Sun.
l'oor llryuu.
Poor Bryan's soul is being tried in va
rious ways these days. Even silver is
going back on liirn. It is going up like
all other things, especially wages, in
these days of republican prosperity.
Bryan got a bad blow just after his de
feat in 1896, when wheat and many oth
er commodities advanced in price. The
advance, as everyone knew, was largely
due to his overthrow. A year or so aft
erward, when republican legislation be
pan to operate, wages started upward.
Now silver has joined the procession.
The consequence of this last advance
will be that if it continues much longer
Bryan will have to drop talking about
silver. When silver goes above the 50-
eent dollar line, as it may do if the ad
vance continues a little longer, he will
have to abandon it. It is not a silver
dollar primarily that he wants for (he
wage-earners of the country, but a dis
honest dollar. The moment that silver
gets above the 50-cent dollar mark his
faith in it will begin to wane. It will be
getting too near the honest money line
then to be of much use in his business.
If we are to have the sixteen to one
trickery in tlie canvass of 1900 silver
will have to start downward long before
hat time.— St. Louis <ilobe-Democrat.
t"y\f all the talk of silver republicans
is not a base fraud, why does Senator
Teller, of Colorado, professing to 'be
such, predict what the democracy will
3o in 1900? There is a dispute as to
what is necessary to be a democrat, but
there can be no question that a 111:111
Alio supports the Bryan platform of
(890 is not a republican. Senator
Teller may be honest in advocating a
50-cent dollar, but there is no honesty
tn pretending that there is such a flu
man being as a 50-ee«t-dollar repub
lican.—lndianapolis Journal.
CAMERON COUNTY PRESS, THURSDAY, MAY 25, 1599.
A SEDITIOUS ACT.
American .\Kiiinicl<lol«tit Are Array*
lntc Themselves Aituinkt Their
Onn Country.
The offense committed by Edward At
kinson in seeking to send certain In
flammatory documents to the soldiers
in the Philippines may not be openly
an act of treason, but it was a seditious
act, of which no man would be guilty
who was not an unscrupulous partisan.
The course which the government has
taken in the premises is mild, but emi
nently judicious. It has made no at
tempt to prohibit the circulation of
these documents within the limits of
this country, because they can do no
harm here. It has only forbidden the
use of the mails for their transmission
to troops in the field. There is no regu
lation of the army or of war which jus
tifies such transmission. Its effect
would be the subversion of discipline
and ultimately of military authority.
If any person were allowed to send
documents of this character to soldiers
in the field, reflecting upon the authori
ty of their superiors, advising them
that they are engaged in an unjust
cause, urging them not to reenlist and
stigmatizing their work as murder and
massacre, it would not be long before
disturbances occurred which would de
stroy the usefulness of the army. The
restriction of Atkinson's seditious plot
ting to this country is legitimate and it
is timely. The war with the Filipinos
is rapidly nearing its close. Aguinaldo
himself is prepared to admit the sov
ereignty of the United States, and the
administration is on the eve of making
such concessions as will insure to the
Filipinos the measure of self-govern-
ment of which tliey are capable. Mili
tary government, however, is not at an
CTHI yet, and it may not be for some
time lo come, and ihe administration
cannot and should not tolerate the send
ing of incendiary documents to those
whose duty it is to carry out the orders
of their superiors unless it is prepared
to invite mutiny.
Those persons who are making such
a clamor over the alleged invasion of the
right of free speech and unwarranted
espionage of the mails have let their
feelings run away with their good sense
if not with their patriotism. —Chicago
Tribune.

Washington, May 18. —-Humphrey
Baylor, a negro suspected of the Low
enstein murder at Slidell, Md., yester-
Jny shot and killed I'olice Sergeant
Fritz Passau, wounded Policeman Gow
ind kept a posse of six officers at bay
'or nearly two hours.
Last Saturday Louis Rosenstedn and
his wife, who kept a smlall store at
Slidell, were found insensible and hor
ribly wounded in their store. Rossen
xtein died from his injuries and the
woman is believed to be near death.
Suspicion fell upon n negro named
Humphrey Taylor, alias Brown, who
had disappeared. The police of this
;itv were notified and a strict wlatcli
lias been kept for the man.
A negro answering the description of
Taylor was seen last Saturday evening
and information received by the police
led them to lielieve their man was liv
ing in a small house on Fowler's Hill,
1 settlement about a quarter of a mile
vest of Georgetown. Yesterday morn
ng Taylor was seen to enter the place
and word was sent to the nearest police
station and a posse of officers hurried
to the place. The men were posted
about fhe house while Passau, Gow and
another officer attempted to enter
through the front door. Repeated
knocking failed to elicit a response and
finally the door was forced.
The two rooms on the first floor were
empty and the officers ascended to the
second story. The front room was also
untenanted, and as the men passed into
the rear apartment Taylor opened fire
from the trap door of a loft in which he
had taken refuge. Sergeant Passau
had turned to look behind the door just
as the negro fired land he sank to the
floor dead with two bullets through his
chest. His companions rushed forward
and Gow opened fire, but failed to hit.
Taylor retreated to a corner of the loft
and, realizing his advantage, the offi
cers pick? ! up the body of the s Tgeant
rind retreated. Gow received a bullet
in his right hand, badly shattering it,
and another struck his metal badge and
glanced downward the entire length of
'his coat.
The reserve 'if two precincts were
called out and the house surrounded.
Meantime word of the shooting had
attracted several thousand persons. Oc
casionally the negro would fire a shot,
(it the officers and immediately a volley
would answer it, but no one was hurt.
With revolvers in hand they watched
every window and tried several ruses
to draw Taylor's fire. Several of these
were successful, for he seemed to have
an unlimited supply of ammunition.
Finally, concluding that he would not
surrender. Chief of Police Sylvester
land District Commissioner Wight were
communicated with and the latter di
rected the police to fire the premises.
A mattrc ss was saturated with oil and
the officers began to remove the furni
t lire.
Seeing his game was hopeless. Tay
lor surendered. Surrounded by officers
with drawn revolvers he was hustled
off to the patrol wagon, when the
crowd surged forward with shouts of
"Lynch him," "Burn him," and made
a rush for the prisoner. A rope was
secured and the mob made a desperate
effort to place it laround the negro's
neck. The coolness of the officers
saved Taylor, though he was badly dis
figured bv blows from the nearest of
the crowd. All the way to the station
house the mob followed the wagon.
When questioned by the police in
regard to the Rosenstein murder the
prisoner told a half dozen different
stories. He said that la man named
Brown had committed the murder and
that he waited on the outside and kept
watch, receiving s(',o from Brown. Upon
searching the premises the police found
$192 and a gold watch and chain which
he had secreted.
THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD.
I'opullM Organization Committee Sujn
tliat l»> the Place for Member* of the
Party.
Kansas City, May 18.—An address to
the populists of the country was issued
here last night by the national organi
zation committee of the people's party,
with the endorsement of the National
Tieform Press association. These two
bodies, whose common object is to
keep the populist party in the middle
of the road, avoiding fusion with other
political parties everywhere, had been
in session here since Tuesday and the
adoption of the address concluded their
labors.
All wlas not harmony among these
middle of the road leaders and only
after long and heated discussions was
an address agreed upon. \ hard fight
was made to secure the indorsement of
Wharton Barker and Ignatius Donnelly
for president land vice president in
1900, but this the committee refused to
recommend. Instead a thorough or
ganization of the middle of the roaders
in every section of fhe country is urged,
with the understanding that they shall
enter the next national campaign with
the present populist organization, but
that wherever fusion shall gain the
dlay, whether in county, state or na
tional conventions, the middle of the
roaders shall bolt and begin an active
campaign to cary out their principles.
The alleged fusionist tendencies of
Marion Butler, chairman of the popu
list national committee, are provided
against in a clause which authorizes the
national organization committee to call
a national convention if they shall be
convinced that the national chairman
or nationlal committee are playing into
the hands of the fusionists.

The Trouble with It.
"I wish you would tell me what is the
matter with this watch," said the customer,
passing if over the counter.
"Jt stops occasionally and you have to
shake it hard to make it go, don't you?" in
quired the jeweler, after he had examined
the timepiece with the aid of an eyeglass.
" Yes."
"Sometimes.you have to open it and start
the balance wheel with a toothpick oi
something of that kind?"
"Yes."
"Perhaps you don't blow through the
works to get the dust out as often as you
should."
"I've dcx 2 that dozens of times, and it
doesn't seem to do any good."
"What really ails the watch is that it
has a darned fool tor an owner," said the
jeweler.
This, however, was the remark he made tc
himself. What he said to the customer was
that it needed about five dollars' worth of
repairs.—Chicago Tribune.
Foot-Eme Trnde-Mark Sustained.
Justice Lauglilin, in Supreme Court, Buf
falo, has ordered a permanent injunction,
with costs, and a full accounting of sales,
to issue against Paul B. Hudson, manufac
turer of "Dr. Clark's Foot Powder," and
also against a retail dealer of Brooklyn, re
straining them from making or selling Dr.
Clark's Foot Powder, which is declared, in
the decision of the Court, an imitation and
infringement of "Foot—Ease," the powder
for tired, aching feet to shake in your shoes,
now so largely advertised and sold all over
the country. Allen S. Olmsted, of Le Roy,
N. Y., is the owner of the trade-mark "Foot
—Ease," and he is the first individual who
ever advertised a foot powder extensively.
'He will send a sample Free to any one who
writes him for it. The decision in this case
upholds his trade-mark and renders all par
ties liable who fraudulently attempt to
profit by the extensive "Foot- —Ease" adver
tising. in placing upon the market a spurious
and similar appearing preparation, labeled
and put up in envelopes and boxes like
Foot—Ease. Similar suits will be brought
against others who are now infringing on
the Foot—Ease trade mark and common
law rights.
