State Convention will meet at Erie, June 25th, TaE Quay-Elkin hair pulling has con- fused aud confounded the Centre county gang. Some of them say Quay is a bad egg, and others that Elkin is; both tell the truth. THE trusts for several years have gone down into the pocket books of the masses of the country, but now since the beef trust has gone down into stomachs of the people the wail is becoming great. Well, aren’t the public getting soaked? THERE are a few Centre county stal- warts holding positions under the Stone administration — Hamilton, Chambers and Fleming—who will have to go with the Elkiz set and If against Quay. these held places under the federal ad- | mupistration, then they Quay to keep at the federal What a difference it does make where some fellows get their feed. trough. - THE Philadelphia Inquirer is getting to be the yellowest of “yellow journals” —it is abusing Quav with the bitterest of bitterness organs that lauded Quay to the holy of that The Inquirer need not wrile any editori The Inquirer was one of the lies and from to the heavens. als of its own about the boss, and when it wants to fire a shot at him just copy from the Centre Democrat or any other democratic paper, of the past ten years, and it gets the right kind of stuff, What opened the eyes of the Inquirer?

He bas telegrapbed him not to speak at the Middlesex banquet at Bos. ton, Wednesday. General Funston is considered ‘fresh,’ as he has been de- nouncing senators and congressmen who may differ with him on the Philippine question, THOSE FILIPINO TORTURES. After persistently abusing the Demo- cratic papers all over the United States and accusing them of disloyalty and ether crimes because they gave currency to the well authenticated stories of cruel. ty and torture inflicted on the helpless Filipinos, the Republican papers are at last forced to admit that the charges are true. They now commend Secretary Root for instructing General Chaffee to make a searching inquiry into the whole matter and bring the offenders to justice, But what nonsense that is Chaffee has known should have known, if at fit for lus position, everything that was going on, and sll the suppressed press reports were at his command. It is nonsense to place the inguiry in his hands. It should be placed in the hands of some one who has nothing to conceal in the matter and who can make a genuine inquiry and not such as will be made by such an inter. ested official as Gen Chaffee, General Miles has been abused by these same administration organs and lickspitties of the secretary of war for suggesting his own making of the inquiry, and he wou!d undoubtedly be the proper mau and his report would have satisfied the people. General or all ASTONISHING INSURANCE FIGURES Few people not acquainted with the figures have any idea of the enormity of the insurance business of the United States. It not ouly exceeds that of any other country, but is twice as great as that of «ll the rest of the world combin. ed. At the present time there is in the United States about $13,000,000,000 of life insurance in force, including assess. ment business. This means over $160 for every man, woman and child in the country, or $800 for every family, The annual risks written by the fire insurance companies are estimated at $20,000,000,000, which is f250 per capita, or $1,250 per family, Thus it will be seen that every family in the country, as . an average, has insurance assests of over | $2,000. This total amount of life and fire insu- rance iu equal to one-third the total wealth of the United States. It is ten times the savings banks deposits and five times our total deposits in savings, State and national banks. It is an almost identical amount with the debt of the whole world, and it is about the same as our annual turnover in commerce, trade and'transportation, and the United States leads in this field of business endeavor as it will soon lead in every other, would cheer for!
