In refusing to incorporate national
issues in its platform the Peansylvania
Democracy acted wisely and sensibly.
The presidential election will not oc-
cur until next year and the issues of
that contest have not yet been clearly
defined. Some of the old issues have
been buried and will not be resurrected.
The campaign this year will be fought
on state questions by the Democrats
issues that appeal to the people of the
state—and next year’s fight may well
be left until then. There is no evasion
of the real issues of the state campaign
by the Democrats. When the proper
time comes they will give expression
to their views on national issues,

THE CARROT PEST,
Negligent Farmers sare Invitlug an Un.
weleome Guest,
The negligent farmer is inviting an
unwelcome guest by permitting wild
carrot to grow unmolested on the road-
side adjoining his cultivated soil, The
condition of the roadside along many
farms is appalling. It suggests that
the farmer is indolent. The wild car-
rot, Canada thistle, briers, mullein,
and the like, lined up on the road
side, represent as many loafers, thieves
and robbers anxiously awaiting an op-
portunity to tap the fertile soil with-
in the bounds of the imaginary or real
fence. No other class of people, no
persons with the same amount of mou-
ey invested, would for a day permit a
gang of professed loafers, thieves and
robbers to stand in front of their busi-
ness place, The police force would at
once be called out.
The police force—the man with the
hoe and scythe—on the farm should
be a most vigilant character, It is
when the policeman sleeps that mis-
chief is perpetrated ; it is when the
farmer is absoibed in plowing, sowing
and reaping [ spmetimes losfing ] that
the soil-robbing weeds grow up by the
road side, along fences, in waste places,
end cast their seed on cultivated soil.
Particular attention is called to the
rapidity with which wild carrot

only a few years since wild carrot was
almost unknown in this locality. To-

Flirtiog with Advanced Ideas
Gregg township is flirting with
centralization of schools in a small
way, by having the pupils the
“Mountain” school transported to and
from the Beaver Dam This
they find to be a great saving of ex-
pense, as the contract for transporta-
tion has been awarded to William T.
Lingle for the sum of $140.00, which is
less than half the salary of a school
teacher.
Under a law passed by the last legis-
lature, which had its origin with Hon.
Leonard Rhone, in this place, town-
#hips that adopt this plan to both
curtail expenses and give their school
children better educational advantages,
will not lose the portion of the state
appropriation based on the number of
schools, Under this law two or more
schools may be centralized, thereby
reducing the number of teachers, and
at the same time the district will re-
ceive the same appropriation as
though the schools were maintained
separately. This law is quite a benefit
even when but one school is dispensed
with since one-third of the appropria-
tion is based on the number of schools,

Pinned Down by a Tree.
George Rusk, a lumberman on the
Kulp tract, near Loganton, was pin-
ned to the earth by a tree that was
blown out of root as a number of lum-
bermen were on their way to shelter
during a storm Thursday of last week,
A portion of the tree fell over Rusk’s
body and fastened him tightly to the
ground. His companions in many
ways endeavored to release him, but
were unable to do so. The man suffer
ed great pain and earnestly besought
his friends to release him, and finally
the deed was accomplished by sawing
and culling away the portion of the
tree that lay immediately over his
body.
