The sword of .Justice seems powerless against the pistol in South Carolina. Tom Johnson is trying to force Senator llanna to evacuate the United States Senate.

'lilt; IBittK GAME Would Like to See a Reduction In Republican Majorities In State. VAINLY LOOKING TO NEXT YEAR Chairman Penrose and General Bing ham Give Warning to Republicans to Be Active and Alert. [Special Correspondence.] Philadelphia. Oct. 20.—An unex pected move on the part of the De mocracy to put Bome life Into their State campaign during the last week has put the Republicans on guard and stimulated the majority party work ers to renewed efforts to Insure a groat Republican triumph at the com ing election. With election day but two weeks off from to-day—it falls on November 3 this year—there is little tiuie left for the county committeemen to prepare for the battle of the ballots. While none but gratifying reports have been received by Chairman Pen rose and Secretary Andrews at Re publican State Headquarters, the Re publican field marshal proposes to la bor incessantly until the polls are closed to get out the largest possible percentage of the enrolled Republican vote. A FINAL APPEAL. A final appeal has been made this week by Chairman Penrose to the six thousand and more county com mitteemen throughout the State to devote their best energies to the cause during the few days of the cam paign. He congratulates them upon their conscientious work up to date and reminds them that the contest is far more important than It appears to be upon its face. The facts are, he contends, that it is the opening skir mish of the great battle to be fought next year when a president, a vice president, representatives in con gress, and members of the general as sembly are to be chosen, and an over whelming victory will have great In fluence upon the more importatnt campaign next year. There is no attempt to create the impression that the Republican ticket is in danger, but stress is laid upon the fact that the greater the Repub lican majority will be next month, the greater will bo the influence of the election returns from Pennsylvania In moulding sentiment throughout the country and affecting political condi tions generally. Capitalists and wage-earners are alike interested in the result, for it may have far-reaching Influence in da terminlng future business conditions throughout the nation. General H. H. Bingham, the "Fa ther of the House," who was In Wash ington last week, was among the call ers upon Chairman Penrose to-day. General Bingham is recognized as on® of the leaders in congress, and he la acknowledged to be held in high es teem at the White House ana oy all the members of the cabinet on account of his years of experience and the excel lence of his judgment. INTEREST IN WASHINGTON. "What about Pennsylvania? was a query I heard on every hand," said General Bingham, in recounting hi» experiences on his trip to Washington. "I found a remarkable interest in our campaign. Not that anyone suspected for a moment that any of the Repub lican candidates was in danger, but there was an almost universal desire to know something about the temper of the people, to learn of the interest they ai* taking in the election, and whether Republicans have awakened to the important bearing the election returns next month will have upon national politics. "The activity of the Democrats throughout the country in what would ordinarily be regarded as elections of minor importance, and the desperate battle being fought by Tammany to get control of the patronage and elec tion machinery of New York city, are conditions which are not being over looked by the national leaders of the Republican party. Every Democratic victory next month will give addi tional encouragement to the Demo crats, who, hungry for office and power, are looking ahead In the vala hope that there will some mishap oc cur to handicap the Republican organ ization for the coming national cam paign. "Pennsylvania Republicans must be alcii and active and see to it that thGre shall be no mishap take place at the election two weeks hence in the old Keystone State. There must be no falling off of the Republican vote, and no reduction of the Republican majority to which the Democracy can point as indicating popular sentiment in antagonism to the party of protec tion and prosperity. There should, on the other hand, be an increase in the Republican vote and an increase in the Republican majority, so that on the day after election every Repub lican throughout the country can point with pride to the returns from the Keystone State and sav our party Is stronger than ever in the bulwark of Republicanism. The people are with us and there will be no deviation from the policies which have made this country great, powerful, and prosperous." Notwithstanding the Democratic press would have it appear that the treasury is "looted," the millions of dollars in the treasury stand as a stone wall defense on the side of the Republican party in Pennsylvania. CAMERON COUNTY PRESS, THURSDAY, OCTOBER 22, 1903. Now (ill 111 €-11 .IllNtU-e. A comical vindication of the rights of property among tli<* savages of New (Jninou was witnessed by a missionary, tin- Ucv. James Chalmers. Service was Just beginning in the little clmreh when a native boy eaiue la dressed with what he considered great magnificence, In a shirt. As the savages were accus tomed togo nearly naked, this garment made the boy very conspicuous. The shirt had once belonged to some white man, and the Importance it gave the present wearer was tremendous. But when ills glory was at its height u bigger boy appeared, hot with rage and carrying a Jacket. He fell upon the first lad and began stripping off the shirt. The rest of the congregation, un derstanding at once that the rightful owner had arrived, gave him not only sympathy, but practical aid. They rose to their feet, and those who were near by took part in the stripping process. Presently the true owner was invested in shirt and jacket, the congregation cooled, and the service went on. Her I.hml Ilrrtith. I heard a story the other day which is probably as old as the hills, though I never had the luck to hear It before. It was of a somewhat lengthy railway Journey In very warm weather. An elderly lady, seated In one corner of the carriage, was provided with an In dia rubber cushion for her greater com fort, but unfortunately, owing to the heat and continued pressure, the cush ion suddenly exploded. The old lady was In despair, even to tears, over the misfortune to the wind ban, and again and again reverted to her misfortune. "Tut, woman," said a commercial traveler in another corner of the car riage, "it's not worth making a fuss about. You will get it repaired In towu for atx>ut 18 pence." "It's no' that I'm vexed aboot—it's no' the price. That's easy sorted. But the last time that bag was blawn up it wis by Aunty Jean, almaist wi' her very last breath, an' that canna be restored!"— Glasgow Times. A ill main uod llaln. It seems strange that no animal, un less it Ik? the squirrel, seems to build Itself a shelter with the express object ©f keeping oft the rain, which they all so much dislike. Monkeys are miser able in wet and could easily build shel ters if they had the sense to do so. "As the creatures hop disconsolately along in the rain," writes Mr. Kipling in his "Beast and Man In India," "or crouch 011 branches, with dripping backs set against the tree trunk as shelter from the driving storm, they have the air of being very sorry for themselves." But even the orangou tang, which builds a small platform in the trees on which to sleep at night, never seems to think of a roof, though the Dyaks say that when it is very wet it covers Itself with the leaves of the pandanus, a large fern. Crsnhtsß. He was an awful swell, and If there was one thing more than another that he prided himself on it was the lit of his clothes. "I can never get u dress coat really to fit," lie said to his partner as he glanced down at a perfectly made gar ment, with a hope, of course, that she would at once disclaim the insinuation. "Look at this thing." "Well, it is atrocious," she said cool ly. "But why not sava your money and buy one? It is so much ch<*aper in the long run than hiring." Hl* Other N'ftme. The candidate for the place of coach man liad been weighed and was not wanting, according to Ills new mis tress' lights. Then the question of his name, which was Patrick, came up. The mistress objected to it in her heart, so she explained that it was her custom always to call her coachman by tils family name. Llad 1m any ob jections? "Not the slightest, ma'am." "What is your last name, Patrick?" "Fltzpatrick, ma'am." A Thrmt That Wm Heeded. In 18tMi the Prussian government de manded an indemnity of 125,000,000 from the city of Frankfurt.

Continued from First paK'-- country contending with the fact that they cannot harvest a money crop under eighteen months from the time they enter upon their land and that in the meantime they must support their families, cannot but appreciate that the provision whereby a settler can, at the end of fourteen months, borrow cash upon his land, make a final pay ment and get a clear title on which to base a mortgage, is a wise one, •s wise to-day as when it was enacted by Congress.
