Fires in the boiler were drawn that morning and the men were relining the boiler until g p. m., when they left the building ; the origin of the fire is a mystery. All the machin. ery was destroyed excepting a churn and the engine; insurance $2500 on the plant, It was a branch of the Howard Creamery Co., and in charge of Thos. Wilson. As it was the central churning point for several skimming stations, and doing a good business, it will likely be rebuilt immediately, With the burning of Wilson's cream- ery at Centre Hall, Tuesday night, that pretty town has had a more severe bap- tism of fire than any other village in the county. The Lutheran church fire along with several stables over a dozen years ago, was a loss of eight thousand dollars; Dales’ store, loss some $6000; Kurtz & Son's mill property, stocked with up. wards of $10,000 worth of grain and flour, was a loss of $21,000 ; the Grenoble grain house ; the recent burning of the Irwin hardware store was a loss of some $6000 ; then there were Lee's buggy shops, Herlacher's stable, the Nearhood house, McCulley's and Mingle's stables, have paralyzed any other community on earth pretending to be civilized. It would thus appear that the premium on rascality in the Republican party {s as great as the discount on it in the Democratic party.~Indianapolis BSen- tinel. Every Américan soldier who dies or gets killed in the Philippine contest dies a martyr to the greed and avarice of commercial Republicanism in this country. The boys in the field are loyal, true, faithful and patriotic, but the star chamber proceedings of the Republican speculators that mduced, or rather commanded, the lamented McKinley to get this country in its present pitiable plight, if examined into with the calcium light of truth and righteous: would blanche the ry citizen with ghame.

Yours a blaze Congressman Hill, of Connecticut, who visited the Philippines last sum- mer, has a poor idea of them as a “stepping-stone” to the Chinese trade. He says that a foreign nation aequir- ing the Bahama Islands would be as wise In thinking it had got an entre- pot to New York and Philadelphia as we are in imagining that Manila gives us an entrepot to China. This will be a sad blow to Senator Beveridge. For- eign trade, In his mind, depends upon having a whole series of stepping. stones across the ocean.

To borrow the exact and appropriate language of our esteemed contem- porary, “all Democrats look. alike,” to Colonel Guffey. The meaning of that is that Colonel Guffey believes in the intelligence and Integrity of the people, and that a free people Is an unbossed people, There are less influential people In the Democratic party of Pennsylvania who take a different view of the ques tion. however.
