PUBLISHED EVERY THURSDAY Monarchical in Application. Washington advices seem to lore-shadow what we think will prove to be a blunder on the part of the '"regulars," the ''stand-pat ters.'' the friends of Tariff stabil ity. It is said that they have de cided to yield the pressure for granting enlarged powers and jur isdiction to the Tariff board, to the end that the door may be opened wide to a thorough inquiry look ing toward further Tariff revision, says the American Economist. They are going to surrender their convictions and their prin ciples, is reported, in order to fore stall more Tariff agitation!" It is asserted that they are "in a blue funk" over the situation; that they are so scared by insur gent threat that they are ready to grant the insurgent demand for "more revision." This seems incredible, prepos terous. Is more Tariff agitation to be of'restalled" in that way? Can you stop Tariff agitation by providing means wherewith to promote agitation. Can you convince people that the Republican Tariff legislation of 1909 is good legislation by play ing the game of those who want to convince the country that it is bad legislation? The business of the country is not calling for more Tariff agita tion, for inquiry and investiga tion directly calculated to keep up the agitation. The insurgents want Tariff agi tation continued as a means of es caping political oblivion. The Democrats want Tariff agitation continued because it threatens to smash the Republican party. But why should sane, level headed, conservative Republicans and Protectionists want it? Have these people lost their heads? Are they scared into fits by insurgent bin IT and bluster? The men who framed the Tariff of 1909 knew what they were about when they provided for the creation of a board which should assist th President- in the applica tion of the minimum and maxi mum system, and also assist cus toms adminstrative officers. At least they thought they knew what they were about. They thought they were placing an absolute limi tation upon the powers of that board, namely, to assist the ad ministration of the present Tariff, that and nothing more. They did not suppose and did not intend that the Tariff board had or should have any authority whatsoever in connection with future Tariff legis lation. The in orients themselves took this view <>f the law, ami com plained lie.-.tuse of the plain re striction- therein imposed. But have turned out dif ferently . The tariff honed lit- construed the law otherwise. It lias tlrugnuitly violated the law. It has undertaken to secure high priced expert service* to examine into production cost. It has eveu attempted to organ ize a propaganda looking to the en tire removal of the Tariff on wool, in order that more mutton sheep and lean wuol sheep *hall In; bred in the United Stale*. If the truth of these assertions shall Is* challenged we stand ready ty prove theui. We can prove that the Tariff board IN a body of Tariff rippem on general princi pled, with special devotion to cer tain interests. In it, tbfU, proposed to uul&ige thn wope increase the powers and eipaud the 'J i»i If i ipping func tion* of this Tariff rip|4ug hoard' Are the regulars," tha coiim-r --veiivc-*, the frienu* of Tariff at*> bility and of business confidence getting ready to "lay down" to the insurgent crowd? And for what? To "forestall more Tariff agitation," we are told. As well expect to forestall more fires by appropriating money with which incendiaries may buy kero sene and matches. It cannot be so. It must not be so. The hope of the country is in the Old Guard, the wise and patri otic men who have thus far with stood the assaults of insurgents and traitors. "The Old Guard dies, but it never surrenders." Is this to re main true? Yes, if the insurgent Tariff commission conspiracy is balked. Not otherwise. Shall we leave Tariff Protection to the tender mercies of Professor Emery, "Jimtnie" Reynolds and Beef Trust Sanders? It comes with bad grace for some of our Democratic contemporaries to say that Captain Barclay withdrew from the Congressional race because he had "cold feet." As the general interpre tation of "cold teet" is lack of courage, the epithet hardly applies to the old veteran, who was in the front stopping rebel bulle f s while his accusers were at home holding "Golden Circle" meet ings and shouting for Jeff Davis.— Bellefonte Keystone Gazette.

Got Another Copy. A well dressed man was standing outside a bookseller's shop In Charing Cross road closely examining one of Balzac's works Illustrated by Gustave Dore. "How much Is this .Balzac?" he asked an assistant outside. "Twenty-five shillings." was the re ply. "Oh. that's far too much. I must see the manager about a reduction." con tinued the prospective customer, and, suiting the action to the word, he took up the book and went Into the shop. Approaching the bookseller, he took the book from under his arm and asked what he would give for it "Seven shillings highest offer," he was told. The offer was accepted, the man took Ills money and left "Well," queried the assistant later, nfter the man had gone, "were you Able to hit it off with the gentleman, sir?" "Oh, yes. I managed fo get another copy of that edition of Balzac for 7 shillings." Then the bookseller went out to lodge a complaint with the police— London Telegraph. A Victim of Leprosy. "On my travels In Venezuela," said a New York man,"l stayed in a hotel with a young man In whose family there was the taint of leprosy, though he apparently did not have it One night sitting at dinner he became an gry at a waiter and brought his hand down on the table with full force. He Instantly realized that he did not feel the blow and sat looking at his band, his face whitening with horror. 'Give me your knife, Bob,' he said to his chum. He grabbed the pocketknlfe in a frenzy and stabbed the side of his hand with vicious cuts from finger tip to wrist You may not know that lep rosy appears in the side of the band, numbness being a sign. The man did not feel the cuts. He arose from the table, knocking over his chair, rushed out into the courtyard of the hotel, and we heard the quick tang of a revolver shot, telling us how he bad conquered the leper's curse by ending his life."— New York Times. Ho Could Wield an Ax. The skill of the old Maine shipbuild ers In the use of the adz and broadax was wonderful. One old time yarn is of a carpenter who applied very drunk at a shipyard for employment In or der to have a little fun with him the foreman set him to give a proof of his skill by hewing out a wooden bolt with no chopping block but a stone. The carpenter accomplished his difficult task without marring the keen edge of the broadax and showed the foreman a neatly made bolt Then he brought the ax down with a terrific blow that shattered its edge upon the stone. "1 can hew fust rate on your chopping block." he hiccoughed, "but I'll be blamed If 1 can make the ax stick in it when I git through." The story runs that the foreman lost no time in em ploying such a workman. Judges' Wigs. The wig is only worn by English barristers to give them a stern, judi cial nppearance, and no one can say that it fails in this respect The cus tom was originated by a French Judge In the seventeenth century when, hap pening to don a marquis' wig one day, he found it gave hliu such a stern and dignified appearance that he decided to get one for himself nod wear it at all times in court This he did, and the result was so satisfactory from a legal point of view that not only Judges, but barristers also, took up the custom throughout Europe.—London Graphic. Acquitted. "Sir!" said the young woman, with what seemed to be iudlguatiou. The young man looked embarrassed. "Yes. 1 did kiss you." he admitted, "but I was Impulsively Insane." "That means that a man would be a lunatic to kiss me?" "Well, auy man of discretion would be just crazy to kiss you." This seemed to end the strain, and. no jury being present to muddle af fairs. a satisfactory verdict was reached. Suspicious Routine. G»«d Man—Ah, tuy poor fellow, 1 feel sorry for you!

I shall not send you to Jail this time, but If you ever approach mo again with such a fjuestlon your friends will not see you for some time." The discomfited reporter retired ru minating on the mysteries of the law and the dignities pertaining to the Ju diciary.—Phlladelpha Ledger. The Exclusiveness of Caste. An English officer who some years ago was wounded In a battle in India and left lying all night among the na tive dead and wounded tells this story: "Next morning %ve spied a man and an old woman, who came to us with a basket and a pot of water, and to every wounded man she gave a piece of Joaree bread from the basket and a drink from her water pot. To us she gave the same, and 1 thanked heaven and her. But the Soobahdar was a high caste Rajput, and, as this wom an was a Chuniar. or of the lowest caste, ho would receive neither water nor bread from her. I tried to per suiide him to take it that he might live, but he said that in our state, with but a few hours more to linger, what was a little more or less suffering to us—why should he give up his fate for such an object? No; be preferred to die unpolluted." The Origin of Oxygen. That eminent scientist Lord Kelvin maintained that all the oxygen In the atmosphere probably originated from the action of sunlight upon plants. When our earth was a globe of hot liquid it contained no vegetable fuel and probably no free oxygen. ISut as it cooled off plants appeared on its surface, and these began to evolve oxygen through the medium of"the sunbeams. Upon the oxygen thus de rived we depend for the maintenance of life by breathing. When we burn coal or other vegetable fuel we use tip oxygen, and It is to plants again that we owe the restoration of the oxygen thus lost to the air If they failed to keep up a sufficient supply the atuios phere would gradually part with its oxygen, and the inhabitants of tbe earth would disappear in consequence of asphyxiation. In Westminster Abbey. Fox's tomb is perhaps tbe most ridic ulous in the abbey, but others run it bard—the naked figure of General Wolfe supported by one of his stuff In full regimentals and receiving a crown from Victory; William W liber force apparently listening to Sheridan telling a comic tale and contorting his features in tbe endeavor not to IUUKII; the Sir Cloude-.ley shovel. In periwig and liomau to-.-n. which excited the mirth even of contemporaries, and all the monuments erected by the Last India company, with palm trees and other tropical exuberances, to tho memory of great soldiers, like Sir Lyre Cools. From tbe point of view of good taste a dictator would be justified In dismissing these and many more to the stonemason's yard—Corn hill Mag azine. How Pausanius Died.
