EDITORIAL HENTION.
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.

; A certain old bachelor is not so slow

I because they would not goto supper
i with him, he made them walk home—

was good between Warner's and where
j they lived. Did you count the telegraph

Wonder what all that loud talking in

If some of our people who pretend to j

praying and less talking we would have
less disturbance in our neighborhood, j

t) Where We Stand To-day.
c, j Let us look back and consider
; what we would have been—what
s- j would have become of this country
3- i —if policies advocated by the Dem
ocratic party during the last thirty
ie years had been adopted! The na
ic tion would have been dismembered,
s. If that had been escaped, by wild
and chimerical financial policies we
ir would have been bankrupt. If we
a I had cast aside chances for territorial
J | aggrandizement which came to us,
j ! not by our own seeking, but by
i force of circumstances we did not
x | control, we should have failed to
r I attain the position among the na
,] { tions of the world that now is pos
,r [ sessed.
_ ! Look back and sec where the
j | adoption of Democratic policy
c j would have led us.
h Look where we stand to-day.—
i Albany Evening Journal.
The Harrisburg Telegraph quotes
I Gov. Stone as saying that lie is
! anxious to wind up his term by
'• j harmonizing party differences and
n i having the right kind of majority
rule recognized. "If the people
, i think," added the governor, ' that
by the appointment of Major A. M.
. i Brown I have simply performed a
' factional deal, they will find them
-1 j selves mightily mistaken in the
; man. There is a time for all things.
s ; The time for vicious fighting is rap
idly passing, and sensible political
' harmony, so far as it is compatible
with honest and economical gov
' i ernment, is the proper remedy for
the conditions in Pittsburg. That

The Republican Policy.
There is a difference between the
two political parties. The Repub
licans do want to govern the mar
-1 kets of the world, and to reign
over the distribution of the world's
j bread and meat, securing in this
B way work at home for every honest
laborer, markets for the products
of our farms, and becoming such a
' factor in the world that will com
-3 pel peace and justice among the
nations of the earth. It is the i
l' policy which will hasten that bless
i ( e<l time promised by the prophet of
old when the sword shall be beaten
into plowshares and the spear into
pruning hooks. It is the Republi
j can policy.—Freeport(l 11.) Journal.

Dear Sir: You sell a good many
things by the gallon. 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.
Good paint too—Devoe lead and zinc
—wears twice as long as old-fashion
painter's paint—lead and oil.
You own a honse. That's why we j
are writing to you.
Yours truly,

NOTICES.
Ready for Buffalo's Show.
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.
