PERTINENT POLITICAL POINTS.
Roosevelt certainly got what he
went after. Still, the correspond
ents who went along, will look after
the mountain lyin'.
Alvord has confessed to stealing
some $620,000. With him in the
dock should stand the carelsss bank
officers who permitted such thefts
to pass unnoticed for years.
The Chinese are willing enougli
to sign anything, if it will get the
allies out of their country. Then
they will take chances on carrying
out what they have signed.
The electoral college held its
meetings and cast its ballots almost
unnoticed. But just think what a
sensation it could have caused by
electing somebody else.
We hope that the New York
newspapers will now give the coun
try a most deserved rest* from the
details of the Vanderbilt marriage,
at least until the advent of the
Vanderbilt baby.
The latest idea in the way of
fraud and corruption comes from
Illinois, in the suggestion that Sen
ators there shall be chosen by sec
red ballot. Evidently, the legisla
tors in that State have an eye to
the main chance.
The country doesn't seem dis
posed to enthuse very much over
the suggestion of Mr. Hill for Dem
ocratic nominee in 1904. Texas, it
is true, has invited him to speak
there, but then Texas would vote
for a yellow dog on the Democratic
ticket.
Every attempt to secure action
on the Nicaraguan canal bill always
meets with opposition on one
ground or another. The latest to
object being Senator Daniels, of
Virginia, who says,"the subject is
not yet thoroughly understood."
When, in Heaven's name, will it
be?
Senator Hanna is determining
that the country shall not be de
ceived by the cloud of falsehood
and misrepresentation stirred up
in regard to the subsidy bill by its
enemies. He has accordingly in
augurated a campaign of education
that will go far to set this measure
rjightly before the voters of the
country.
The execution of the British
peace commissioner by the Boers
may be unfortunate, but it is war,
and just as justifiable as was that
of Andre in the American revolu
tion. Any man who visits an en
emy's camp to try to persuade his
troops to desert their cause is just
as liable to death as one who seeks
to bribe an officer to betray his
post.
The present opposition to the
army bill is largely disingenuous.
The bill does not give the President
any power to increase the army.
It fixes its size at 100,000 and then
empowers him to decrease it if he
thinks it advisable. Yet the op
ponents of the bill pretend to oppose
it, not because it fixes the army at
the larger number but because it
gives the President power to in
crease it.
Quay's Triumph.
Philadelphia Inquirer.
"Mr. Quay," Hays the New York
Times, "is reported to be exceed
ingly pleased with his 'vindication'
secured through his re-election to
the United States Senate."
Well, why should he not be?
But the Times goes onto remark
that "of course, in no rational and
honorable sense has he been vindi
cated atall." Anditadds: "Un
doubtedly his election is a disgrace
to the State of Pennsylvania."
We submit that this New York
journal insults the people of Penn
sylvania when it gives vent to its
spleen in this manner.
The ignorance displayed by the
New York newspapers of all things
outside of the narrow confines of
Manhattan Tsland is proverbial.
They do not even know the boun
daries of their own farm lands and
truck patches that constitute the
so-called Greater New York. Ac
customed to being robbed and
plundered by Tammany Hall, they
think themselves to be the spokes
men of a patriotic and self-sufficient
people. When they comment on
matters outside their own back
yard they are woefully ignorant.
The New York Times knows just
about as much about Pennsylvania,
the greatest State industrially and
the best educated State in the Un
ion, as it does about life in the
planet of Mars. What right does
it possess to call Pennsylvania to
account for electing Quay to the
Senate ? Pennsylvania looks after
her own interests. Quay saved
Pennsylvania in the Wilson bill
fight when the New York Times
was an advocate of destruction.
We know what we are doing over
here, and we are not disposed to
take the criticisms of an ignorant
New York newspaper as gospel.
The facts about Quay are these:
He was a candidate before the Leg
islature of two years ago, and he
was beaten because the new "re
form" movement threw tens of
thousands of dollars into the light
to buy votes against him after he
had won. Since that time the
State has been thoroughly canvass
ed. There was a contest for the
election of delegates to the State
Convention of last April, and that
contest resulted in a four-to-one
majority for Quay. He was named
as the Republican candidate for
Senator by that convention. He
went before the people—personally
appealed to them in various legis
lative districts. Wherever he spoke
he won against all that his adver
saries could do. Never has he lost
when he went directly to the peo
ple. He carried the State by near
ly 300,000 majority, and that ma
jority carried with it 150 pledged
votes in the Legislature when, in a
full Legislature, he needed but 127
to elect him. He did not get his
150 for the very good reason that
boodle was again in evidence and
that man after man was bought
with cold cash. You do not dis
cover any great movement on the
part of the anti-Quay bolters to
secure a Senatorial investigation,
do you, Mr. Times? No! nor will
there be any from that quarter.
The reason is plain. There is not
an Insurgeut leader that dares seek
an inquiry, for they all know full
well that among their followers are
men who have taken the cash of
bribery in exchange for their
treachery to their constituents.
Senator Quay was elected by the
people, and he has had to fight
against the most corrupt campaign
that this State has ever known.
That he has triumphed over boodle
in such vast quantities is little less
than a marvel, but he has triumph
ed, and he has the endorsement of
a very great majority of the voters
of Pennsylvania. Could he run for
the Senatorship to-morrow by pop
ular vote he would be elected by
the greatest majority ever given a
candidate for any office in Pennsyl
vania. His victory is exceedingly
popular. He has been maligned
and vilified, and if there is one
thing that an American citizen
hates it is persecution—and espe
cially hypocritical persecution. Of
course, Quay's New York malign
ers cannot understand that. An
American citizen—the genuine
American—is most rare in New
York.
Senator Quay has triumphed over
his self-seeking enemies, and he
has triumphed with the applause
and the indorsement of Pennsyl
vania. Why should he not be
pleased ?
A Deep Mystery.
It is a mystery why women endure
backache, headache, nervousness, sleep
lessness, melancholy, fainting and dizzy
spells when thousands have proved that
Electric Bitters will quickly cure such
troubles. "I suffered for years with kid
ney trouble," writes Mrs. Phebe Cherley,
of Peterson, la., "and a lame back pained
me so I could not dress myself, but Elec
tric Bitters wholly cured me, and, although
75 years old, I now am able to do all my
housework." It overcomes constipation,
improves appetite, gives perfect health.

CAMERON COUNTYIPRESS, THURSDAY, JANUARY 24, 1901.
The New York Sun says:
tliew Stanley Quay is againj/Ben
ator of Pennsylvania. t Jltflms won
against the most bitter and power
ful a politician ever
faced There will
be many ugly explanations of his
victory, but the fundamental reason
for it must be plain to pll. It is
that the vast commercial interests
of Pennsylvania have looked upon
Mr. Quay as a safer and more val
uable representative to speak for
them in the Senate than any rival
who could have been put forward
by the opposition. Without this
overwhelming force in politics,
Quay never could have achfeved
his victory.''
