MORRISON, McKean County. EDITORIAL nENTION. President Roosevelt is goiug to investigate the Dawes Commission and no guilty man will escape. The postoffice investigation prom ises to reach a conclusion and go out with a blaze of indictments. Too bad Mr. Bryan cannot have his sail area measured. It would doubtless reduce his time allow ance. There were two points 011 which Gladstone and Salisbury always agreed. Both were High Church men and both hated tobacco. The President's earnest insis tence for fair play throughout the government service will insure the support of the American people. The effort to injure the adminis tration by besmerching the reputa tion of Secretary Hitchcock promises to prove a boomerang for the newspapers that attempted it. In the course of a very dull politi cal season, the only sound to break the stillness is the strident voice of Farmer Bryan, "eliminating" an other of his party's possible candi dates. The twenty-six year old man who sought entrance at Annapolis by giving his age as eighteen, should have tried a young ladies' seminary instead of a naval academy. An American naval officer reports from Hong Kong that the only na val vessels in Asiatic waters which are not fitted with wireless teleg raphy apparatus are the American and the Chinese ships. The report that the President was conducting an investigation of the relations between union and non-union labor in all the executive departments indicates his deter mination to treat all laborers with equal fairness. Before leaving for Europe, Sec retary Root announced that every important problem which would come up for settlement before the first of January, by the War De partment, save emergencies prob lems, had been disposed of. The inclusion of the cost of re pairing the injury to the Massa chusetts iu the expense of the Oyster Bay naval review argues grave ignorance on the part of many editors. The Massachusetts was injured going into Bar Harbor, not when starting for Oyster Bay. The bookbinders' union has filed its charges against William Miller, their expelled member who was re instated by order of the President. The burthen of the charges is that Miller was illegally married some twenty-five years ago and, although he has lived happily with his wife ever since, it is claimed that he cannot therefore properly bind books. As Hamlet sayetli, "treat a man according to his deserts and who would escape hanging,'' and as ivepling sayetli, "we are all of us liars, are half of us thieves and the rest are as rank as can be." For Sale Cheap. A quantity of second-hand window Bask, casing .and blinds complete. A number of doors and casings, all in good order.

FRANK SHIVES. 19tf The Democrats of This State. This authoritative statement is made that the Democratic Bosses of Pennsylvania —there are such things, it seems—have decided up on the ticket which the State convention will nominate next week, says the Philadelphia Press. Nobody doubts that the selections thus made will be promptly ratified by the convention. What more concerns the Demo cracy of Pennsylvania however, than the ticket it will nominate is its attitude respecting the great struggle now going on in the party to determine which way it Jwill head in the coming presidential campaign. The Democrats of the State cannot hope to elect any of their candidates, but as in other States, such as lowa, where the party is in the minority, they can have an influential share in deter mining what the party policy shall be. They can take a recognized place in the party councils of the nation, or they can stand aside timidly and supinely and let other States determine while they tag tamely along. Two State conventions have acted upon the matter this week. It was undoubtedly expected that Nebraska, being Bryan's State, would go back unequivocally to the Kansas City platform, and that is what it has done. In Ohio the situation appeared for a time rather different, but as Mayor Tom Johnson secured control of the convention and nominated himself for Governor the Kansas City plat form and unlimited Bryanism have been endorsed. It is consis tent with what the party in that State has been for a generation. Whatever may be said as to its wisdom, the Democracy of Ohio has never been wanting in the courage necessary to declare itself. The Pennsylvania Democrats cannot ignore the issue now stir ring the party in all directions without declaring to the whole country that they are kicking either in convictions or courage. They cannot deceive Bryan and that wing of the party he repre sents by silence. On all occasions the man who has been twice named as the party's presidential candi date has insisted that there shall be no departure from the Kansas City platform. On the other hand a mere failure to indorse that plat form will not satisfy that element which is seeking to reorganize the party, and abandon the Populistic platforms that have been so dis astrous. Anything but a frank and un mistakable declaration on one side or the other is certain to invite the contempt of Democrats of other States, no matter to which wing of the party they belong. If the Democratic bosses of the State want to be leaders they have the chance open to them. Letter to S. J. Hacket. Emporium, Pa. Dear Sir: We suspect you'd like the tale, how a woman beat two hardware dealers in Girard, Pa. We tried our best to get those men to sell Devoe lead and zinc in that bright town; and failed.

She knew Devoe; had sold our artists' materials. Had some sense and force, besides; she easily learned that cheap is dear in paint, and told the people. Mr. Burt Young bought a gallon De voe for rooms that had always taken a gallon; had half left. Mr. E. 11. Hiler, jeweler, painted De voe, and says it goes futher—no parti culars. Mr. John Hanna, grocer, thought it expensive before he bought it; brought back nearly halt of his paint, and said it was the cheapest job he ever had. Mrs. Bowman reports universal satis faction. So much for a cheap-paint towu with a bright woman in it. Yours truly. F. W. DEVOE & Co. P. S. Murry & Coppersmith sell our paint.
