Prosperity has prevailed so generally
•throughout the country during the lasi
The Melodeon feW ycaTS that some
of the social philoa
"nil the Pinna. ,
ophers have meas
lired and stated It In terms of pianos. The
measure was not a bad one. The num
fcer of pianos bought by people who,
years ago, would not have thought ol
owning one, and ten years ago were not
able to pay for one, has been a pretty
good index of satisfactory business con
ditions. At the same time, it was pleas
ant to know that prosperity was con
tributing so promptly to the happiness of
the whole family. Yet In this, as in many
other affairs, there has been a loss as
well as a gain. The piano has come,
but an old and valued friend, the iLelo
deon or parlor organ, has gone; and
there are those who think that it came
just a little nearer to the family life,
and is a little dearer to the memory of
those who have gone out into the world,
than its more pretentious successor can
ever be. The parlor organ, observes
Youth's Companion, belonged to a sim
pler age than this —the pre-bicycle, pre
telephone, pre-rural delivery age. It was
a good, honest instrument, fine enough,
as its name indicated, to putin the par
tor, yet inexpensive enough for a man of
small means to buy without any severe
strain. Once bought, what a change it
made in the family life! It became in
stantly the heart and center of it. The
neighbors began to come In more fre
quently, and together, for a "sing." The
boys stayed at home oftener, and did
their part toward making the "sing" a
success. The quality of music which this
humble instrument produced may be
technically inferior to that which the
piano produces, but it was not spiritually
or emotionally Inferior—rather the con
trary. One could execute upon it the
liveliest jig or the merriest college song,
yet its especial field was the music of
the old-fashioned hymns, the sweet
old-time ballads and simple songs which
touch the heart because they are true to
life. It Is music of this sort which they
recall who listen for the notes of the old
melodeon and the voices of those who
gathered about it; and for them the pi
ano is no substitute.
During the past few years many of
the old abandoned farms of New Eng
land have been taken up by "city farm
ers" and made into splendid country
homes. While some of the purchasers
were not practical farmers, they had
the capital to convert them into pleas
ant summer residences. They have en
gaged practical men to rejuvenate these
old worn-out hills, and under modern
methods the land Is being brought into
a profitable state of cultivation. Live
stock will do it quicker than anything
else, and though the land does not ad
mit of extensive prazing. in a small
way raising stock in the cast can be
niade a satisfactory business.
War has its episodes no less romantic
than those of peace, as a sentimental
Milton might have said. One of them is
disclosed in the search of a Cuban sol
dier for the American nurse who car?d
for him in the hospital at Santiago.
She would not give her name to him,
but told him that he would hear from
her after the war. He has been waiting
for word from her, and is new in this
country, searching, with nothing to aid
liirn save her photograph and the knowl
edge that her family objected to her
service as an army nurse.
Rockefeller, unlike some millionaires,
does not forget his boyhood friends. He
has come to the rescue of an old chum
whose little farm on an island In the
Missouri was about to be lost through
debt. The oil magnate generously sent a
sufficient sum to cancel the obligation,
which might have cost him as much as
, $250. Wonder if there will he another

If two or three per cent, of the vast

LET US NOT FORGET.
The l.iick of IliiMfneKM Sonne In (lie
Dominant Klement of the
Democracy.
Senator Piatt, of New York, is univers
ally conceded to be one of the shrewdest
of political managers, but it is not so
generally known that he has had a lopg
and successful career as a business man.
His experience in this line, says the In
dianapolis Journal, qualifies him to dis
cuss politics from a business point of
view. He is a statesman of the practical,
or, if you please, of the commercial
school.
In his speech at a complimentary din
ner lately given him in Washington the
New York senator emphasized the in
ability cf the democratic part}' to rise
above its environments in the adminis
tration of the government. He pointed
out that, as the dominant element of the
party is lacking in good business sense
and controlled by vagaries, its admin
istration of public affairs will Inevitably
partake of those characteristics. A
democratic president may not himself
be a dangerous man, but, said Senator
Piatt., "he must yield to the spirit of
his party and be its Instrument, or he
must break with his party and be the
rock on which it splits and goes to
pieces." The following is worth quoting:
"The history of Mr. Cleveland i9a perfect
Illustration of my point. lie was mailt the
democratic candidate for his availability,
but as soon as the entire- government be
came democratic. In his second term, it
was straightway discovered thai betweena
conservative president and a radical party
there WJLS no possibility of successful gov
ernment. As the president became more
conservative the party became more rad
ical, and the effect of their struggles for
control was felt in the profits of every busi
ness and in the earnings of every work
lngrnan."
When Senator Piatt says that the
struggle between the conservative and
the radical elements of the democratic
party affected the profits of every busi
ness man and the earnings of every
workingman he knows whereof he
speaks, for he is a business man himself.
The American people must have very
short memories if they have forgotten
what a disastrous plight the country was
in at the end of Mr. Cleveland's second
administration and how quickly it ral
lied when the party of prosperity and
progress came in again.
In the light of experience and in view
of the contrasting records of the two
great political parties in their admin
istration of the government, Senator
Piatt thinks "we shall need throughout
the coming campaign to keep constantly
before the people the often-proved in
capacity of the democratic party to con
duct public affairs and the menace to
business which proceeds from its very
constitution." The suggestion is time
ly. lest we forget that the democratic
leopard has not changed its spots and
that the party is still as incapable of
giving the country a successful and prog
ressive business administration asitever
was in the days of its past professions
and promises.

CAMERON COUNTY PRESS, THURSDAY, JANUARY 28, [904.
AN "ISSUE" FROM BRYAN.
More Flapdoodle Oratory from «li<
Ureal Ulohe-Trotter of
KcbraaUa.
At a banquet in New Haven, Conn,
which was declared to be a "prelude tc
the opening of the presidential cam
paign in New England," William Jen
nings Bryan gave an "issue" for the
coming national contest. He said:
The* great issue at this time is the lssu(
between man and mammon, between plu
tocracy and democracy. All surface ques
tions of taxation, regulation aiid of finunci
art. but phrases of that century-long, thai
world-wide struggle between the commou
people and organized wealth."
As a piece of rhetoric and as an exhib
it of political forensics this is lofty and
high sounding. It is Bryanesque, says
the Chicago Kecord-Herald. It is true
that the issue between man and mam
mon is ever with us and is more than a
century-long." In his European trip
Mr. Bryan must have noted abundant
evidences of the fact that this struggle
began way back, long before the birth
of the western republic.
But does Mr. Bryan seriously propose
to make an issue of this struggle, old
as the human race itself, in the coming
piesidential contest? Does he intend to
ask the next national democratic con
vention to incorporate this issue, in the
language in which he has framed it, in
the national platform?
Political issues are not made up of
glowing generalities. Mr. Bryan is nn
eloquent gentleman. He has many ad
mirers outside the 6,000,000 Americans
who voted for him in two presidential
contests. As a citizen and as a typical
American he commands respect. But
when it comes to outlining an "issue"
for the democracy in the coming presi
dential campaign he will have to be
more specific. He will have to come
down from the lofty heights of post
prandial oratory to particulars. If he
means that the great issue is the issue
between the people and certain monopo
lies that seek to control the agencies of
production and exeh»r.gft he will have
to say so in lucid and explicit, terms.
The issue as vaguely defined by Mr.
Bryan would be merely the issue of
class against class—an issue that would
not be seriously considered by the
American people as a political issue in a
presidential campaign.
COMMENT AND OPINION.
has been found in Texas. Thus
destiny again intervenes to make Mr.
Bryan's political prospects less pleas
ing.—N. Y. World (Dem.).
ttJ-Now that William J. Bryan is back
in his native land, no democratic dinner
will be democratic without his presence.
—Detroit Free Press (Dem.).
Parker is emphatic in his
expressed belief that the seat of democ
racy is in the west. And Mr. Bryan
supplements it by thinking that he,
knows the seat of the presidential candi
date is also somewhere in that baili
wick—Cincinnati Commercial Tribune.
Beveridge never speaks
without saying something worth re
membering. In his speech at the recent
love feast he said: "Unless a political
party serves the whole people it has no
reason for success or even for existence.
Our pride as republicans is that our
party has done well for the nation; our
guaranty of victory Is the certainty that
we will continue to do well for the na
tion. Never forget that the surest way
to win is to deserve to win." That be
longs to the class of utterances that will
do to paste in one's hat.—lndianapolis
Journal.
news of Mr. Roosevelt's popu
larity in Nebraska will hardly prove a

recently given him much chance to pose

Boston, .Tan. 23. —Senator ITannt
Contributes to the February nuinbei
of the National Magazine, puhlishet
in this city, a forceful article undei
the caption of "Socialism and the La
bor I nioiis." It embodies some o:
the conclusions drawn by Senato:
lianna from his observations and ex
perience in business and politics am
in a measure outlines his lift: worl
and indicates his personal ambition
After expressing l his belief in tin
power of education over the Aineri
can people and declaring that the
•basis of right success is fairness am
justice. Senator Hanna. writes:
"I here is no more engrossing ques'
♦ ion than that of the relation be
t ween labor and capital, which seems
the paramount issue today.
"The instinct of workingrnen tc
band together to protect themselves
is no more to be wondered at thar
the same instinct when shown on the
part of capital. Now, my plan is tc
(have union labor Americanized an<i
thoroughly educated to an under
standing of its responsibilities and
111 this way make it, the ally of the
capitalist, rather than a foe witli
which to grapple.
"I took some time to consider the
work of the Civic Federation and am
firmly convinced that it is the object
to which I desire to consecrate the
remaining years of my life. 1 full,y
appreciate that it is a long struggle,
but the progress already made under
the motto of the Civic Federation—
the golden rule—has surpassed even
my most sanguine expectations, and
I am sure that the American people
■will sustain a policy which will elim
inate the passionate prejudices that
now exist between capital and labor,
"Labor organizations may be open
to sharp criticism at times, but it
cannot he fairly stated that they nre
always wrong 1 . If every man is treat
ed as a man, anil an appeal made to
his heart as well as to his reason, it
will establish a bond of confidence as
n sure foundation to build upon.
While labor unions may have been a
curse to Kngland, I believe that, they
will prove a boon to our own country,
when a proper basis of confidence and
respect is established.
"The menace of today, as I view it,
is the spread of a spirit of socialism,
one of those things which is only half
understood, and is more or less used
to inflame the popular mind against
all individual initiative and personal
energy, which has been the very es
sence of American progress. There
is a spirit of co-operation or com
munity of interests which some peo
ple may confound with socialism, that
is making headway with us; but
when any one attempts, for political
or financ'al reasons, to advocate the
whole program of European social
ism. he will find little prospect of the
seeds taking root in American soil
This,l think was demonstrated very
conclusively in the Ohio campaign,
where higher socialism was brought
forth as on issue.
"Fairness and justice will never
agree to the confiscation of the pro
ducts of one man's toil in order tc
insure comforts to the idle and
worthless. No 'ism' is wanted by the
American people that will take from
any citizen the just and equitable re
ward of his labor."

Itilliiencew In the General Situation.
New York, Jan. 23. —It. G. Dun &
Co.'s Weekly Ueview of Trade says:
Weather conditions have furnished
the chief influences in the general
trade situation. To some extenl
traffic has been hindered, especially at
the eas«, but the latest returns ol
railway earnings for January show
au increase of 3.9 per cent, over l'JO.t
Consumption of fuel lias increased,
and retail trade in coal greatly ex
panded, but no commensurate gain at
first hands is reported, owing to the
large supplies held by dealers, lie
tail distribution of footwear and
heavy wearing apparel felt the stimu
lus, and annual clearance sales re
moved accumulations of dry {foods,
milincry, etc.
Wholesale business is fairly active,
traveling' salesmen sending 1 in about
average orders, and jobbing trade is
normal. Manufacturing plants are
more active, with little change, in
quotations, and the outlook for
spring trade is considered favorable.
Collections are somewhat more
prompt.
Iron and steel plants that resumed
at the turn of the year have obtained
sufficient business to continue operat
ing and thus far the adjustment of
wages has not produced the threat

Foraker Will Not Fight.
Washington, Jan. 23.—A conference
which was pregnant with significance
was held at the White Mouse Friday
between the president and Senator
Foraker. The senator returned
Thursday from a sojourn of several
days in Ohio. While in the state he
conferred with many of his friends
regarding the political situation. It
was to inform the president of the
result of his observations that he
called mi him. It seems improbable
at this time that Foraker will pre
cipitate a contest in Ohio over the
selection of delegates to the Chicago
convention.
PURE FOOD BILL.
11 Pa«*c« tlio lloufte of Representa
tive* Standard* Fixed for Purity
and of I'oud* and Ilriis*.
Washington, Jan. 21.—Thr house
passed tin- Hepburn pure food bill
yesterday on a rising- vote, 201 to 08,
its opponents being unable to secure
a roll call on the bill. The amend
ment inserting 1 the word "willful"
wi i h reference to persons who sell
adulterated or mis>brandcd goods, and
which would have compelled the gov
ernment to prove intent to violate
the law 'by the venders, was stricken
out on a yea and nay vote. Several
attempts were made to amend the
bill, but no material changes were
made.
i'he bill fixes the standards of foods
and drugs as to their purity, strength
and character and defines what shall
be considered adulterations or mis
branding of foods and drugs. It alsa
prohibits interstate commerce, im
portation and exportation of such
misbranded or adulterated articles,
It, is proposed to enlarge the scope
of the bureau of chemistry to include
the bureau of foods and impose upon
it the duty of performing all chemical
work for the other executive depart
ments. This bureau will be charged
with the duty of inspecting food and
drug products which belong to inter
state or foreign commerce. The sec
retary of agriculture is given author
ity to employ such chemists, inspec
tor!?, clerks and laborers as may be
necessary for the enforcement of the
■ct.
One section of the bill provides
penalties for the introduction of
adulterated or misbranded foods or
drugs and another section requires
the secretary of agriculture to pre
scribe rules and regulations to gov
ern the director of the bureau of
chemistry and foods iu examinations
of articles required to be inspected
under t'he law.
Violations of the law shall be re
ported by the secretary of agricul
ture to the proper district attorney
of the I nited States, who is to cause
proceedings to begin without delay.
TCorirnn Would Annex Panama.
Washington, Jan. St.—Senator Mor
gan yesterday introduced a bill pro
viding for the annexation of Panama
to the United States, "the rights and
property of l'anama resting in the
United tSates without reserve." The
bill appropriates $10,000,000 as com
pensation to Panama for its cession;
places $15,000,000 at the disposal of
the president for the compensation
of Colombia, and appropriates sto,-
000,000 for the purchase of the prop
erty of the Panama Canal Co. in Co
lombia, including the Panama canal.

Albany, N. V., Jan. 21. —Charges of
the Bar association of Jamestown
against State Supreme Court Justice
\Y. 15. Hooker, former representative

charges quote the report of Fourth
Assistant Postmaster General liris
tOW relative to alleged irregularities
in the postoflices at Dunkirk and Fre
donia, with reference to rentals of

Wednesday at a conference between
officials and experts representing
the .New York Central railroad and
the General Electric Co. The tests
