Don’t let it enter the minds of Dem-
ocrals to fuse with Republicans on the
county ticket,
Don’t! O! Don't!!
The Democratic party of Centre
county can sufler defeat and rise to
supremacy. Defeat through fusion
means a complete sacrifice of the Dem-
ocratie party. If fusion is successful,
what is gained ?
There is no reason to fear the defeat
in Centre county of an absolutely
straight Democeratic ticket,
Don’t fuse!

The report of the legisiative com,
mittee of the Pennsylvania State
Grange on taxation calls attenticn to
the monstrous inequslities in the dis
tribution of the heavy burdens of
government are revealed in that re
port and it is no wonder that farmers
protest. It is shown that they are
compelled to pay four or five times as
much in taxation as other interests
and the life of the agricultural element
is being crushed by this unequal bur-
den.
The Grapge is deing a great and
useful work in bringing the tax ques
tion to the front. Perhaps its plans
of relief are not the best possible, but
its complaint is just and its proposals
demand fair consideration. This
country cannot goon half taxed and
half free. Justice demands relief for
labor and privilege must go.

Efforts’ have been made, so it is re
ported from Washington, to have Pre-
gident Roosevelt use his influence to re-
duce Southern representation in Con-
gress, but the President has declined
to interfere, and the proposed measures
have no chance, as matters stand, to
become laws. There will be a great
deal of talk, and possibly an investi-
gation of Southern suffrage plans, but
there it will end. The far-sighted
men of the R lican party, accepted
as leaders, privately hold that the peo-
ple of the Bouth are entitled to a
chance to take up this problem of the
¢lored vote aud solve it in their own
way. That is precisely what the peo-
ple of the North would maintain were
they confronted by the dangers of
negro suffrage as thicy are presented
at the South.

The partial failure of the corn crop
in the great corn States of the West is
reflected in our foreign commerce.
In October of this vear corn exports
amounted to only 3,800,000 bushels.
In October of last year shipments ag-
gregated 13,500,000 bushels. Ship-
ments from Atlantic ports last week
only 278 000 bushels, against 6 300,000
bushels for the corresponding period
in 1900. It is evident that Europe
does not care to take much corn at
present prices, It is to be considered
there is a vast amount of corn in the
hands of producers who are holding it
for higher prices,

A New Venture for Woman.
The part thut women took in the re-
cent land lottery, in Oklabama, when
13,000 farms of 160 sere a each were dis
tributed by lot, is the sulject of an in-
teresting comment io the January De-
lineator. Many women were success
ful in this competition, and there is
no doubt of their success in the devel
opment of their new opportunities,

The Schiey Court,
Cowardice was the chief charge against Schley. Of that he is
unanimously acquitted. “His conduct during the battle of July 3 was
self. sed, and he encortraged, in his person, his subordinate officers
and men to fight conrageously,” eays the majority report of the Conrt
of Inquiry. “Commodore Schley was the senior officer of our squadron
off Santiago when the Spanish equadron attempted to escape on the
morning of July 3, 1808, He was in absolute command, and is entitled
to the credit due to snch a commanding officer for the glorious victory
which resulted in the total “destruction of the Spanish ships,” says
Dewey in the minority report,
Thus the main point is settled, and in Dewey's opinion the see.
ond contention, that Schley was in command and was entitled to
the victory, should be decided in Scliley’s favor. Admirals Benbam
and Ramsay have plainly done what they conld to save the naval clique
from com humiliation and have perpetrated another outrage against
a hero. Itis not the first time that narrow professional prejudice has ruled
men. Dewey stood above the envious erowd of conspirators, determin
ed and unafraid, and in the presence of his fairness Benham and Ram.
#ay did not dare to venture far. But they went too far. The ambi.
tion that o’erleaps iteelf and falls on the other side is shown,
