EDITORIAL fIENTION.
Political Insincerity.
It would seem that the Demo
crats, who are holding Hon Jos.
C. Sibley up to ridicule and scorn
for as they allege, scattering the
"long green"in a corrupt way, in
the interest of his election to Con
gress, are condemning themselves
as severely as they are Mr. Sibley.
Less than two years ago these
Warren Democrats spurned the
idea of Mr. Sibley using money for
his election. We do not know
whether Mr. Sibley used money in
a wrong and corrupt way or not.
But these Democrats now say he
did. And ii' he did many of these
"Warren Democrats helped him do
it.
It ill-becomes the pot to call the
kettle black, or those who live in
glass houses to throw stones. At a
meeting in Warren last fall Mr.
Sibley resented the charge that he
was using money improperly and
the whole Democratic party in
"\\ arren responded with a loud and
a long drawn out "Amen."
If you will take up the Evening
Democrat, Friday's issue, yoit will
rend, in the editorial column, about
the whole game which is there ex
posed. Mr. Sibley could not have
scattered his money in.l corrupt
way if he had not had agents to do
it for him, taking for truth the
-taleinents (if the Democrat that he
did so. \\ ho were those; agents?
Persons that did not belong to the
Democratic party? Or were they
imported for the purpose?
The distribution of Mr. Sibley's
money, who gave it out, for what
purpose, under what circumstances
and conditions, who got it, etc.,
would make an interesting story, if
some one, who was in the mystic
circle, would write it up and give
r to the public. If Mr. Sibley
soiled his political garments in the
mud, there are others who were as
deep in the mire.
-Now if these Democrats who are
so liberal with their information
about Mr. Sibley would tell us
something about the persons who
lid this work for '-Honest .Joe,"
and expose the whole scheme, they
would l>e doing a commendable
public act and the state and dis
trict a benefit.
If Mr. Sibley had come forward
.is the Democratic candidate he
would be the same old "Honest
foe." but as lie has not done so he
"Honest Joe no longer. De
mocracy, Democracy, thy name is
Insincerity. 111 co) Isis te 11 cy— anv

Hotels and Politics.
The severe ruling of Judges Umbel
and Hep pert, of Fayette county, in dis
posing of the applications for licenses
at the present term of court, will be
likely to lead to more careful examina
tion of license applications by the courts
generally throughout the State. There
must have been more than ordinary
provocation by the abuses of the license
system in Union town and Fayette
county, to compel the Judges to make a
deliverance so severely restraining the
methods of hotel-keepers.
Among the requirements fixed by the
Fayette county Judges for hotel people
are the avoidance of fast living, drink
ing and gambling; the payment of their
debts and the maintenance of a reputa
ble position in the community. They
are not permitted to take any offensive
part in politics, at primary or general
elections, nor lodiscuts politics in their
bar-room:' or > .nit treating in the in
-3 rest e>f pel it i ! candidates. All ad
ditional retinircmt-at is that the hotels
must i)e cleanly, with tidy porters and
servants, and loafers excluded. In
ihort, as the Ju , >•» declare, they insist
hat tne liquor tr *e;e: must be made en
.irelv reput.-.b!.- bv ihu avoidance of all
I
offensive and social order.
Of course, such rules would not be
generally needed for tho hotels in our
great cities, but it is a well-known fact
that in a number of the counties of
Pennsylvania the men who can render
the greatest service in obtaining licen
ses for applicants have the greatest po
litical power. In ono county close to
this city, the local political movements
have been largely if not wholly, con
trolled through tho influence of the
hotels and saloons. Their licenses
were given to serve political ends, and
in desperate political contests hotel
keepers were required not only to con
tribute, but to control all within their
reach in the interest of the power that
gave them the licenses. Such a condi
tion must bo not only demoralizing to
politics of the community, but gener
ally demoralizing to the moral health
ofthe people.
The courts coulel greatly elevate the
liquor trade in every community by
enforcing just provisions for the pro
tection of tho sobriety of the people,
and avoiding all tho many temptations
to disorder and drunkenness which
come from a considerable portion of
our rural hotels. They are of necessity
political centres, but there is 110 reason
why a political conference at a hotel
should not bo as decorous as a political
conference held at a school house or at
a private residence. In many sections
tho rule is for political conferences to
be held at hotels and end in a jolly
spree, all of which would be well to
avoid; and with such restrictions as are
put upon the Fayette county hotels by
tiio Court, all necessary political meet
ings and conferences, large and small,
could be held without any demoaliza
tion whatever. The high standard
fixed for lecensed hotels by the Fayette
county Judges is well worthy of imita
tion throughout the Stated-Philadel
phia Times.

Mike Miller, who resides near Brad '
ford and who has been drilling one of I
the deepest oil wells in this section, has j
struck the pay streak at the depth of j
3,300 feet. The well is 011 his own land j
and he has been pegging away at it for |
the past 20 years. It is good for about j
20 barrels a day and now he has the !
laugh on a number of producers who
were in the habit of making fun of his

In a recent interview in Pittsburg,
Gov. Stone refers to the worK the next
Legislature will be called upon to per
form, and comes to.the following sensi
ble conclusions. "The next Legisla
ture will be a working body. There
will be no deadlock, Senatorial or oth
erwise. A United States Senator will
be elected, the choice of the Republican
caucus, and but one joint ballot will be
necessary to reach a decision. I believe
an appropriation will be made to com
plete the Capitol Building. It is a blot
on the Commonwealth in its present
shape."
Judge Hazen, of Colorado, a brother
of Mrs. Dewey's first husband, is evi
dently not favorably impressed with
Admiral Dewey's candidacy for presi
dent. When asked on Saturday what
he thought of Admiral's declaration
that he was a candidate, his answer
was:"l am not in a position to say
much, but if the people of this country
do not desire to place the destiny of the
nation in the hands of a woman, it will
be best to let the Admiral remain where
he is. I km>w Mrs. Dewey very well,
of course She was my brother's wife.
She is a bright, capable, ambitious wo
man, and quite familiar with public
affairs at Washington."
