EDITORIAL riENTION.
The President didn't strike oil; he
struck coal.
• •
The Commoner isgettingcommoner.
David B. Hill's jack-ass brayed too
soon.
•«*
We love animals and therefore can
not subscribe to the doctrine of met
empsychosis.
Mr. Bryan says he is fighting to pre
serve the work he did for his party in
1896 and 1900. lie might accomplish
this task without upsetting the world,
v
When President Roosevelt secured a
settlement of the coal strike, he buried
the last glio3t of Democratic hope.
**•
Ohio is experiencing Democratic
eingle-tax-ism; New York, Democratic
socialism; and Democratic anarchy is
knocking at the doors of several states.
* *
The Democratic Campaign Book is
proving as great an obstacle in the
Democratic compaign as would Demo
cratic legislation to the prosperity of
the nation.
With the coal strike of 1902 settled,
the Smolenshis, the Striffskis, the AU
kickskis, the O'Flarhaties and the
Fahays will now proceed to inaugurate
the basis of another strike.
Mr. Bryan says he would rather be
right than be President. An exchange
adds that he runs no risk of being either.
Mr. Roosevelt is trying to be both
right and President at one and the same
time.
Probably the reason that this country
is free from revolutions is that all the
revolutionary spirits find their way in
to the Democratic party and become
lost in the mazes of internicine conflicts.
Some papers think they can make a
funny supplement by a liberal use of
colored ink and a few pointless legends
attached thereto, They are right; their
supplements are funny, but they are far
from humorous or witty.
William Allen White writes that
President Roosevelt is the first presi
dent since the civil war that has con
ducted his office aud has done things
about as the average man believes he
would have done them had he had the
chance.
The Commoner's Macedonian cry to
come over and help us by sending in
subscriptions at once is getting a little
urgent. In view of the scarcity of fuel,
perhaps one might do worse than sub
scribe for Mr. Bryan's paper.
In spite of Democratic anxiety to
3ee their fellow men suffer privation in
order that tho Democratic party may
win at the polls, Republican prosperity
will not down.
In the coming election no man
should offer the excuse of being too
busy to vote Republican defeat
would produce more idleness than
should be desired in which to repent.

Suppose the State of Pennsylva
nia elects a free trade, free silver
Democrat to the United States
Senate? The effect upon the coun
try at large, that this Common
wealth, which is a beehive of in
dustry, had repudiated the policies
of Harrison, McKinley and Roose
velt would be alarming to the con
servative interests. Hope and
courage would spring in the bosoms
of Democrats in every close State in
the Union, and it requires no fever
ed imagination to see that a Demo
cratic President might very easily
be the fruit of the seed carelessly
dropped in the ground during Penn
sylvania's legislative election. —
Bucks County Gazette.
In 1892 the country was happy
and prosperous. To bring the
matter home and permit of a clear
realization of that time, every mill
in Bristol was then humming with
industry, houses were fully occupi
ed and men, woman, boys and girls
had no difficulty in selling their
labor. There was a constant cry
for help. In November a Demo
cratic President was elected and
from a state of prosperity in fifteen
months we got to the condition
when free soup houses had to be
established, AND NOT A SINGLE LAW
HAD BEEN CHANGED UPON THE STAT
UTE BOOKS! That was the moral
effect of a Democratic national vic
tory.—Bucks County Gazette.
Give Credit Where it is Due.
At Kittaning Judge Pennypacker
very truthfully said:
"There is a matter of recent date to
which I want to brifly call your atten
tion. There has been a very serious dis
turbance in one of the great interests of
the Commonwealth. Employers and
employes came intocollison as to which
side should have the greater advantage
in the sale and disposition of material
they produced. Now, that was a matter
which affected not them alone; it affect
ed every railroad, every mill, every
factory and every business interests in
this broad land. But more than that.
The most important things in life are
not our material interests. It affected
the homes and happiness of every man,
woman and child living in this land.
The poor in their homes wandered what
they were going to do, threatened as
they were with the cold of the approach
ing winter.
This was a most grave and serious
situation. While it existed what Demo
crat in this country, what Democratic
newspaper publishingjeditorials daily,
what Democratic Statesman or politic
ian raised a hand to remove those diffi
culties? You are sensible men and
there are many things you know of and
about which you need not be told, and
you know that the hope of the Demo
cratic party in this campaign rested up
on the continuance of those difficulties.
"Now look at the other side. The Re
publican Senators of Pennsylvania, the
Republican Governor of New York, the
strenuous and able Republican Presi
dent of the United States combined
their weight in an effort to bring about
a fair and reasonable solution of the
trouble. They succeeded. The strike
is over. The dark cloud that was hang
ing over the land has disappeared.
Those miners who had been out of
work for four or five months may now
return to their occupation and get their
customary wages, but the hopes of the
Democratic party in thin campaign have
disappeared.
There was a renewal of the enthusiasm
when former Senator Brown was intro
duced. It becameeven wilder than be
fore and reached a pitch bordering on
frenzy when a man in the audience ask
ed: "What of the anthracite strike?"
Mr. Brown paused, looked in the di
rection from which the query had come
and in a dramatic manner said: "The
anthracite strike? the answer to that is
Roosevelt."
For some time it was impossible for
the speaker to continue. Men sprung
to their feet and waved their hats and
shouted until they were hoarse, and
even the woman joined in causing such
a volume of sound as has probably
never been exceeded in a courtroom.
