YELLOW JOURNALISM VERSUS REPUBLICANISM. We are amused, rather than con cerned, by the declarations of the lato Democratic state convention, for we readily recognize, as all people must, the co-operation of certain nowspapers in their preparation, which papers, failing in their attempt to disrupt the Republican party, have crawled under the tents of the Democracy with their stale and false charges and succeeded in having them adopted as a Demo cratic platform. The platform of the late Democratic state convention will be found in the flies of the so-called yellow journals during the past few montlis. We believe in surrounding the press with every constitutional guarantee vouchsafed to it since the foundation of our government, but it is a public menace that these constitutional guar antees should be so misused as to have permitted many of our newspa pers to have degenerated into a yel low journalism such as is detrimental to any state or country. V/e c!iargo the so-called yellow jour nals with being subcidized by the full page a - which they carry. The ac'veit s:?r is permitted to dictate their policy, and at his behest these riewsj .pers have perverted the news columns ant! the editorial page from beir.g an honest record of dally events to a labored aiijmpt to misrepresent facts. 1■» raet from the platform of the Republican state convention of Pennsylvania, Harrißburg, August, El. 1901. McKinley Loved The South. lit a letter to the Manufacturers' Record of Baltimore, United States Senator J. L. McLaurin, of South Carolina, tells of an interview he had with President McKinley one day during the early days of the Spanish war. "The President," says Senator McLaurin, spoke beautifully and tenderly of the Southern people, and of how he intended to use the power and influence of his great office to reunite our country. "I can recall the words, but who can point the earnestness and elo quence, as, raising one hand on high, he said: 'Senator, by the help of God, I propose to be the President of the whole country, the -fouth as much as the North, and before the end of iny term the South will understand this.' "No wonder, as a true Southern man, I loved and trusted President McKinley. I stood by him in the Senate and elsewhere, and J thank God that I did. "Patriotic in purpose and pure in heart, bis noble soul is now with Him whom the hate of man nailed to the cross. Like Lincoln, who saved the country, McKinley who reunited it, dies a martyr to envy and bate." Stricken With Paralysis. Henderson <!rimott, of this place, was stricken with partial paralysis and com pletely lost the use of one ami and side. After being treated by an eminent phy sician for quite a while without relief, my wife recommended Chamberlain's Pain Baliu, and after usinir two bottler of it he is almost entirely cuied.—GEO. It. MC DONALD, Man, Logan county, W. Ya. Several other very remarkable cures of partial paralysis have been effected by the use of this liniment. It is most wide ly known, however, as a cure for rheuma tism, sprains and bruises. For sale by L. Taggart. I TEACHERS' INSTITUTE!

VERKES WEAK AT HOME Candidate for Supreme Court Not j Strong Among His Neighbors. A MAN OF VIOLENT PREJUDICES J | He Is Assured of Defeat Should He 1 Aspire to Re-election to the Com mon Pleas Bench In Bucks County 1 at the Coming Election. Special correspondence from 1 Doylestown tells of the weakness of 1 the Democratic candidate for the su- j preme- bench, who at the instance of j the Wanamaker interest in Philadel-1 phia has been placed upon the Union party ticket. "Judge Harraan Yerkes, of Doyles- j town, the Democratic and anti-Repub lican candidate for judge of the state \ supreme court,"says a Doylestown I correspondent, "has presided over the | courts of Bucks county for nearly 18 j years. He was first elected judge by more than a thousand Democratic ma-1 jority. At the close of his first term ! he was renominated and elected by the bare majority of about 230 votes. The prediction has been repeatedly made in Bucks county lately that he cannot be re-elected to another term because of the enemies he has made in and out of his party. His second election as Judge of the Bucks county courts was only made possible by the votes of Republicans who supported | his candidacy. "During his second term he has de- j veloped the attributes of a czar. He i has assumed to regulate and manage men and affairs in his own county as j only a despotic ruler would do. He ; has commanded grand juries to do his j biddlngas noother judge in these days is known to do. He has gone far out 1 of his way to exert his power, and has lost the esteem of many of the best j people of Bucks county. A MAN OF VIOLENT PREJUDICES. "Judge Yerkes is a man of strong and violent prejudices. These preju dices he carries upon the bench and allows them to control him in certain j instances. Up to the first nomination ; of Bryan he was an intensely bitter ; Democrat, but in the first Bryan cam paign he sunk his partisanship and opposed Bryan's election. For this he ; has never been forgiven by straight- ! out Democrats. "During that campaign, as an illus tration, Judge Yerkes came to dislike 1 a certain Democrat in Doylestown who | was enthusiastic in support of Rryan. This man headed a company which ! later applied to court for a distillery i license. Judge Yerkes, many believed, declined to issue the license because , of his difference with this man on tho j Bryan issue. The case was carried to 1 the supreme court, which directed Judge Yerkes to issue the license, all the conditions of the law having been i complied with. "In a subsequent case,not at all con j nected with the one referred to, Judge i Yerkes took occasion to utter a slur ' upon the supreme court such as is [ without parallel in the judicial his tory of this commonwealth. That de liverance should be upon record in l the Bucks county courts, and might ! CAMERON COUNTY PRESS, THURSDAY, OCTOBER 10, 1901. have been made the basis of impeach ment proceedings had it been desired to proceed in the matter. "The prejudices of Judge Yerkesare many and deep-seated. He Is extreme ly sensitive, and dislikes criticism. He himself criticises freely, but he does not want his views or his actions com mented upon adversely. He resents anything of this sort, and many of his opinions are burdened with this re sentment. "During the early years of his pres ent term the Republicans elected as district attorney the county chairman of that party, who directed the fight agafnst his re-election. That district attorney had the most trying experi ence that has ever befallen a similar official in the county. Judge Yerkes seemed to take advantage of every op portunity to humiliate him. "Judge Yerkes lacks the judicial temperament in a conspicuous degree, some intimation of which has been given. He can not restrain himself in his likes and his dislikes, and car ries them upon the bench. He never forgets an enemy and rarely remem bers a friend. He is absolutely selfish and self-opinionated. "There is another feature of Judge Yerkes* unfitness for the supreme judgeship, and that is his lack of ex perience In the higher or more In volved law. Almost his entire time as a judge has been given to petty crimi nal cases. He has rarely been called upon to pass on questions involving momentous or even intricate ques tions of law. "Much of the business of the Bucks county courts has been and is of a minor character. The business of the county is almost exclusively agricul tural, and that, as everybody knows, does not call for much or important litigation. Consequently Judge Yerkes' experience as a lawyer and as a judge Is with cases of no great importance. "Judge Yerkes, realizing, no doubt, that 110. can not be re-elected to the position he now holds in Ills own county, has exerted every possible ef fort to (secure another job. He has even thrown over his strong Demo cratic tendencies to accept the Btraw of independent Republican support. He wants to sit upon the supremo court bench, and ho is willing to sub vert his party inclinations to take ad vantage of every opportunity that may be the means of securing the coveted position. It is no lofty ambition that urges Judge Yerkes on in the pending campaign. He simply does not de sire to retire from the judiciary to the place of a mediocore lawyer In a Small country town." Can C'nre For 2250,000. Director General Buchanan says the euly problem now confronting the Ex position is how to iind days enough within the closing weeks to adequately take care of the many attractions and features now being planned, lie pre dicts a great attendance during the month of October and one far in ex cess of the highest estimates that have been made by the most sanguine. In answer to the inquiry as to whether or not Buffalo could take care of the crowds, he said there was no difficulty whatever in this regard; that Buffalo could easily care for 250,000 strangers every day comfortably and at reason able prices.
