June 21 Some persons earn their honors; others try to steal theirs. *— Philadelphia this week was crowded with Republican office holders and those who are thirsting for office, - Enlarged and improved the Harris- burg daily Patriot is now better than ever, and Democratic to the core. tani The Republicans had quite a time going a-begging for some one to be their nominee for Vice President. Pi- ty they didn’t happen around this way, we could have pointed to a doz- en willing to take it. I ——— fp pn To dodge and shirk issues, and hem and haw grave misdoings of the Me- Kinley administration, will be the Re- publican program in this presidential campaign, while Democrats will hold an impregnable Spionkop. I r——— A —————— The latest jokes out are: First, the McKinley platform, framed this week, having a plank pretending to be op- posed to Trusts. Becond: Quay an- nouncing himself in favor of ballot re- form and fair elections. Now laugh heartily. c— The Republican Congressional cam- paign committee is engaged in one of the most outrageous schemes to trans- fer the tidy sum of $40,000 almost di- rectly from the United States treasury to its own campaign coffers that has ever been heard of. The scheme is to assess it on the salaries of office hold- ers in Washington. ———r— af aee— There is a surplus of 70 millions in the treasury, exacted from the people by the odious stamp taxes, yet McKin- ley refuses to heed the cry of the peo- ple for a repeal of the stamp laws. And here is the reason : This surplus is a fine thing for the Hanna tribe to use in private speculations, Bee! Think of this when attaching a stamp to a check or other document, ———— f—— Embalmed beef for our soldiers in the Spanish war. Refusing to perform a ‘plain duty” towards Porto Rico. Promising the Cubans good governo- ment and sending down a lot of offie- ials who stole all the revenues they could lay their hands on. These are points upon which the McKinley plat- form, framed this week, is as silent as death. AP ——————— Things look warlike in China. The boxers are playing such a high hand against the foreign missionaries, that the powers, including the United States, are on the verge of interfering. A severe lessson may be taught the lawless Chinese followed by big bills for damages sustained through the boxers. Pigtails, curled, straight and plaited, will become a drug in the mar- ket as soon as the powers begin to move. This largely Republican congress has adjourned without heeding the cry of the people for protection against the Trusts, by repealing so much of the high protective tariff that serves no other purpose than to protect the Trusts in their fleecing the masses by high prices for their wares—taking the tariff off such goods will, to a reasona- ble extent, clip the wings of the extor- tioners. But the Hanna-McKinley interests lie with the Trusts, and there's the rub. I Criticism of Governor Btone, says the Record, for his arbitrary exercise of unconstitutional power is condemn- ed by some of his friends, who are ap- parently disturbed by the growing de- mand for his impeachment. This is to be expected ; for nec man, however undeserving he may be, is without partisans. But the Governor's friends must accustom themselves to a serious contemplation of the fact that his im- peachment would be an inevitable se- quel of a reform victory at the polls next November, ———— ATTAIN Judge Simonton, of the Dauphin county court, has decided that people own the sidewalks and a telephone company has no right to stick poles on the sidewalks without owners’ con. sent. Four employes of a telephone company a few days ago were conviect- ed of assault and battery on Mr. and Mrs. Jacob Kochenour, who resisted an attempt to plant a pole in front of their home. Each of the men was fined $50. The judge sald, “these peo- ple had no business there, or no right to plant poles at that place, afd, not having any right there, they were obliged to get away when notified by the owner. The pavement belongs to the owners of the property, and the company had no right to erect poles. The company seems to think it can stick poles any place, which is a mis- take. The highways are for the pub- lic, and must be protected.” n a - Nineteen new sea fighters, remarks the Pittsburg Times, is a result of the last session of Congress, and the Navy department is preparing plans for some of the most powerful additions that have ever been made to our sea power, or, for that matter, to any navy what- ever. The extent of these additions can be better apprehended when it is stated that the list includes five battle- ships that will cost nearly $5,000,000 each ; six armored cruisers of 14,000 tons displacement each, which means that they will be among the largest and most formidable warships afloat; three protected cruisers of the highest class, and five submarine torpedo boats, designed to steal along unseen, under the water, to the attack of an enemy. The construction of these ships will require over 35,000 tons of ar- mor plate alone and hundreds of thous- ands of tons of steel, and will tax the capacity of several of the largest ship- building works in the country for some time to come. When fully equipped these ships will | represent a money value equal perhaps to that of all the navies of the world | not so long ago, while in power they will be capable of sailing | through an ocean filled with the best | types of war vessels of a generation | ago. offensive | { | Ap fp William J.

He is the author of the robber Trusts, in tive tariff without which could not exist, to oppose Trusts, eyes of the people oppressed and im- poverished by the Trusts, vention and agreed to have an anti- Trust plank put in the platform, yet he is a member of several ing— ciated with him.

McKinley has been guilty of gross mismanagement of the Philippine war entailing an enormous expense upon the Nation and at a great sacrifice of life. These are a few of the sins McKinley will have to answer for.
