The Republican party is truly the

The record of Col. John P, Linton,
:fhe Democratic candidate for president
judge, says the Johnstown Ifrrald, is
without the slightest stain. A a -soldier,
lie was always at his post except when at
several battles he was wounded by reU'l
bullets; but no sooner had his -vigorous
constitution restored his hea-Hh than he
was found righting by the -side of his I
comrades. He was brave, kind, and
true; and his military record issuch that j
his old comrades-in-arms f the Fifty
Fourt point to it with the greatest pride
As a citizen he has always taken a prom- 1
inent part in the affairs of the city and j free. Their Ix-et sugar has been admit
the county, and there is uot a man in ted free ever since the sugar schedule of
r i v,i , Jr. roii.r ' he McKinley tariff bill went into effect.
Cambria county who has won in greater Sl Pr,nn sid tn have ran-
degree the resiHxt of the people. His
abilities as an attorney are unquestioned,
ioned,
his reputation extending throughout the
state.
The Republican emissaries do not at
tempt to criticise his record; they must
admit that it is beyond reproach. Con
sequently they have tlood'nl the country
with falsehoods concerning his physical
condition which the meanest of them
admit to le untrue and wliich will t-oon j
lie-ehuwn up in their true light to the
..... ... . . , ti, .i
satisfaction of the iieople. Ilie falMtv
. , , ,
of these stories has already ten proven
by the appearance of the -Colonel in va-j
riotis parts of the count' in the lest tl
health.
... r ...:.,,.i ; '
found in the fact that, tkough seriously
wounded on several occatuoits by relel
bullets during the war, ke r'tunel at
ife close in the best of health and for j
twenty-five years has not missed a term
of court at Elensburg.
Ik there is any one thing, ays tlie
Peniixiilmiiiu Farmer, that the farmers of
this country owe to themselves as a
class it is that they standby one of their
number whenever such a one is named
ai a candidate for an official joisition;
and especially so when that one becomes
a candidate without any effort or solici
tation on his part.
A. L. Tilden, a plain farmer from
Krie county, is a candidate for State
Treasurer. His ability to fill the ixsi-
a tku with credit and honor to loth
I i,;
himself and the class he represents is
not questioned.
Now the farmers owe it to themselves
to see to it that he is elected.
His election will place the farming
class in a iosition to hereafter command
the attention ot the politicians from all
parties and will show them that the
farmer is bound to le heard in all mat
ters connected with the State govern
ment. Farmers, we can not afford to
let this opportunity pass. If we fail in
electing Mr. Tilden we will be told in
the future as we have many times in the
i past, that we can not stand together, and
, that there is no need in courting the
j farmers' influence or help, for he will
: follow the dictates of his party bosses
j anyhow. Again, farmers, let us le true
to ourselves; let us stand faithfully by
one of our own nutnler, who has leen
true to us, and see to it that at last a
just cause is successful. We can make
it so if we will.
For the first time during the last score
of years, says the Philadelphi Ti mex, the
Republican leaders of Pennsylvania are
greatlv overmatched in oolitical leader-
ship by their Democratic opponents.
To-day Senator Quay is challenged to
battle by young Democratic leaders who
equal him in sagacity; who understand
his methods as thoroughly as he does
! himself; who are all just in the noonday
of life with no Bourbon thongs to crip
ple their strength, and with the courage
that seeks the conflict instead of evading
it. These men are Governor Tatt'isou,
Secretary Harrity and Attorney General
Hensel, to whom may be added the
name of the cgming Auditor General
Wright. These are broad, tireless and
master strategists in politics, and they
have the rare advantage over Senator
! til,:l-v of no embarrassing past and no
full. ,..,,...i;..i ,.,o !...,. i..
They are all clean, able, fearless, shrewd
men, and they can strike without fear of
smiting themselves through their friends,

the president of the Chamljer of Com

that the efforts had been successful, and
that the Italian government-would short

there was a coucerted yell from the ad
ministration crowd about "the great di
plomatic triumph achieved by the ad
ministration through Minister. Porter.
Diplomatic fiddlesticks. There are,
strictly -speaking, no diplomatic relations
lH?tween Italv and this country. Italy
has had no minister here since the New
Orleans incident. Whatever "triumph"
there is about this ponk business is en
tirely commercial and belongs to the or-ganir-ntion
of Italian merchants in New
York city, and not to the administra
tion. H-ore is another instance of the a.T
mitistration trying to claim credit to
which it is not entitled. Ry the inscru

The bOTernor'a Message.
Speaking of Gov. Pattison's message,
convening the-State Senate in extraordin
ary session, the Public Jjier , of Phila
delphia, edited by George W. Childs, the
well-known Republican, says: "Through
ever' paragraph of it there shines clear
ly as truth itself the light of a high offi
cial duty done, of public spirited ' pur
pose fulfilled."
Regarding the course of the ring Re
publican organs in attempting to create
the impression that the Governor was
actuated by purely partisan purposes in
convening the Senate, the Istxlger ot
serves: "The message cuts the hist bit
of stable ground from under the feet of
those who stated or insinuated that Gov
ernor Pattison had been actuated by the
basest partisan motive in calling the Sen
ate to meet in extraordinary session; it
not only does that but it covers with
shame those who so impugned his pur-
' Pses. Governor I'attison needs no tes
timonials to sustain his character for in-
I vincible personal or official integrity, for
purity of motive in his public or private
acts, for high courage and fidelity to
duty. If he did need them they would
be found in his call to the Senate and in
. the message he yesterday sent to it. It
i is a message which concerns the whole
; body of the people of this commonwealth
and city not less than the Senate .that is
to pass ujiou it"

Mexican Cruelty.

Three Mexicans were shot at the Guar

miles above here, on the Mexican side.
last Sunday. Two had just crossed from
Texas, having been working in the vicin

an army meat contractor, it is said, was
from Mier. No person is admitted to
Mexico from Texas without a pass from
the Mexican consul. These three men
knew nothing of the regulation, and
were at once arrested at their homes by
a cavalry picket. General Lorenzo Gar

their arrest, ordered their summary exe

only in the memory of those who have

Edward Donalson, who has a homestead
claim in Oregon, may fairly lie entitled to
the claim of being a mighty hunter: One
day last week a large hand of elk which

ing. His cabin was wrecked and Donald
son himself narrowly escapd. As soon as
he could recover from fright he secured his
rifle and shot four elk. After running a
quarter of a mile the animals turned and
dashed np the mountain. This time Don
aldson slaughtered seven more.
