Great Britain cannot complain of her success in getting into bondage. Poor King Eddie! What a change it must be for him from the free and easy days when he was one of the boys. 4- + + It would be like tho Ohio Democrats to run Tom Johnson for governor on a fchree-cent fare platform. Ohio Demo crats are given to three cent issues. + + Mr. Towne seems really heart broken over Agtiinaldo's defection from the anti-imperial cause. It is pretty hard oil Towne'a business, after all. H + Possibly Great Britain may find that South Africa is a sort of gold brick af tar all. Certainly, it can hardly be worth what it has already cost. + + + Mr Ripley of Kentucky has been ac quitted, the jury evidently being ofthe opinions that his was merely a plain case oi too much gab. + j A Methodist minister has protested against the admittance of ministers to sick rooms, saying that their solemn countenances usually cause relapses in the patients. Shouldn't wonder if this were so. The British bonds sold readily at 97i; at the same time, however, American bonds essentially similar were selling for 112, this difference measuring with sufficient accuracy the variation be tween the credit of the two countries. The much talked-of commercial war of Europe against the United States is almost inevitable sooner or later if we goon invading their markets and tak ing away their trade. Self preserva tion will compel it. Starvation will compel it. «■ -f Philadelphia isn't so slow, after all. A physician there has sent in a bill of $190,000 for attending a millionaire in his last illness. We should like to know what he wouldn't have charged if he had saved him. + + + + Republicans will do well to take to heart Representative Babcock's de mand for tho abolition of the tariff on goods that are made cheaper here than they c«m !>-• abroad. This is likely to be an issue in the next Presidential election, and the Republicans want to be on the right side of it. + + + + The financial center of the world is rapidly shifting from London to New York, just as the commercial supre macy of the world is shifting from Eu rope to America. It is a magnificent j future that this country has before it in j the century Just beginning. t t Filth, it has been proved, does not j cause yellow fever directly. It does j serve, however, to breed mosquitos j which do propagate tho disease. There fore, the abolition of the filth goes a j long way towards eradicating the evil. | But destruction of mosquitos would go ' a good deal further. | I British farmers are kicking because their government buys its horses in the j United States instead of at home. The i reason, however, is plain. British j farms cannot begin to supply the de- j inand without absolutely denuding the ! country. Our British cousins must get j a move on in this as in other particu- | tars. ♦ J Naturally, in adopting and defending j principles at variance with those held by the bulk of his party, Senator Mc- Laurin must have expectod opposition. His opponents, however, do themselves no credit by making coarse personal attacks on him and letting his argu- j ments pass unanswered. But perhaps that is the best they can do. ALL AROUND THE COUNTY. Rich Valley. ! Editor Preaa:— \V. I). Johnson began sawing shingles i at his mill on North Creek last Monday. Miss Hattie Angevine, of Costcllo, I visited Mr. Barr's folks on North Creek, j this week. Miss Alda O. Carter closed a success \ ful term of school Thursday at the Swe i sey school. Mrs. Melvin Carter returned home from Smethport on Saturday, where she j has been visiting her daughter, Mrs. j Wm. Carter. We heard that a young man not far | from the mouth of Lewis Run, with a ! jug full of "I'olinky" caused unlimited ! trouble last week, parting one couple and ' doing other serious damage. ; A certain old bachelor is not so slow !as he might be. He took two of our j young ladies to a party Friday night and I because they would not goto supper i with him, he made them walk home— ; about nine miles.

Miller took in the excursion to Pittsburg last Sunday, reporting a good time.

William Arnold is spending a few days with his daughter, Mrs. J. E. Smith. William Stevens is getting ready to paint the new addition to his house. B. E. Smith is putting a , wire fence around the front of his father's yards as well as his own. A little girl of Squire Whiting has been very ill with pneumonia but is bct at the present time. Arthur L. Wylie took the civil service examination at Warren, a few days ago. and we hope passed all right. Mr. E. Lord and wife left for Bing ham, McKean County on Monday where they intend to make their home during the summer. Frank Parker, the contracting leather roller, arrived from Falls Creek last Sun day night on fast line, accompanied by Mr. Corbett. Ed. McFadden, well and favorably known in this county, who now makc3 his home in Cameron, spent a few hours here the other evening. Senator Wade is busy these times lay ing out gardens. He is a practical gar dener serving an apprenticeship at it in his younger days in an eastern country. BARNEY. Huston Hill. Editor Cameron County Press : Warm weather and plenty of it. Why go off the Hill for an attorney when we have two good ones here. Harry Hanseom brought a large load of.furnitut# on the Hill last Monday evening. We can all attend church for the next four weeks as there will not be a collec tion during that time. Quite a number of our people attended the funeral of Isaac Smith at Castle Garden, last week, Tuesday. Rev.Ebersole preached an able sermon j here last Sunday night and told us what i constitutes a christian. Let us follow his j advice once, for luck. Miss Ethel Barr's school closed last j Monday. Her work was very satisfac- j tory to all, parents as well as pupils. She | is an excellent young lady. Wonder what all that loud talking in Williams' field, last Thursday night meant? Had it been earlier in tho week might have thought it thunder. If some of our people who pretend to j be such good christians would do more j praying and less talking we would have less disturbance in our neighborhood, j CAMERON COUNTY PRESS, THURSDAY, MAY 2, 1901. | [Yes, for goodness sake let up and »ive Iye editor a rest.

Being a decent man, you give full measure. ; You know what we mean; you know r that short weight and short measure 5 are common among—well, we hope there are no short measures and weights r in your town. There are, though. Ribbons and laces and trimmings, sold by the "doz r en," measure nine or ten yards. There is no complaint, because "they all do . it." You have the same plague in your goods—nearly everything canned or bottled, cheats in the quantity. Al ; most nobody gives full weight in a factory package! We are one of the almost nobodies. We sell paint, by the gallon, to paint your house; and our gallon is just the 1 same size as yours that you measure vinegar with—23l cubic inches.

It would hardly occur to a resident of this locality that the severity of the Winter prohibits the work of the rail road section gang in a region BO near as Western New York. But such is the fact. From Thanksgiving Day to April Fool's Day, or thereabouts, the pick and shovel of the section laborer is securely locked in the toolhouse, and the track repairer finds other work. The snow and frost, have yielded now to the gentle warmth of the sun, and the gang is out again preparing the roadbed for the great traffic of the Summer. On the western end of the Pennsyl vania Railroad's new route to Buffalo new and heavier rails are being laid, ! and additional ballast is being placed. | The entire line is dotted with workmen substituting now crossties, placing the i new rails and chinking in the ballast | that makes the roadway solid The bridges are likewise receiving a j share of attention, and the physical condition of the line is undergoing a < general overhauling. The operating j 1 officials anticipate a heavy increase in ; traffic during the Pan-American Expo i sition, and they are placing the line in the best form to accommodate the heavier and multiplied number of fast trains. At the Buffalo Terminal, Exchange Street, additional trackage has been laid and a number of repairs and im i provements have been made for the better handlingof theincreased through and local traffic. It is said that the trains specially de stined to the exposition will be run i through to the station on the exposition j grounds and started from that point on j the return trip; but even if this is not j done, the trains of the Belt Line run at ; frequent intervals and connect the ex position grounds with every quarter of the city and the principal railroad station. The Pennsylvania Railroad officials report alreadjua gratifying increase in traffic since the inauguration of the j new line between Philadelphia, Balti j more, Washington and Buffalo. —Phila- , delphia Press, April 19, 1901.
