That is a refreshing statement, one to which reference will be made at a later period, In the meantime, Senator Hall, who is chairman of the democratic state com mittee, is sald to have voted for the bill on first and second reading, and be fail ed to vote at all when the measure was on its final passage in the senate. Doesn't be merit some punishment? Altoona Tribune. Yes, we agree with you. We have no time for State Chairman Hall. Demo cratic papers who will follow the leader. ship of a "press muzzler” if he claims to be a demociat, are only mere tools, party slaves. They are not worthy of the name of “Democrat.” Hall is even worse than Penrose and Quay. He is not true to his party, — wo — Art branches of the government, it turns out daily, are run upon the boodle plan, and the public funds are being used corruptly by political beelers and henchmen of the vilest sort, The last plunderiog is in the post office depart ment, Frauds are being unearthed in mall pouch contracts and in the free rural mail delivery routes, favorites get. ting contracts for double the price of pouches and of the free delivery boxes, The frauds committed in the postal ser. vice already amount to half a million dollars and the end is not yet, As in the state 50 in the national government, it is steal, plunder and rob. It is greatly to be feared that the appropriations for road improvements in this state, to the amount of millions of dollars, (which is A wise move,) will be bandied by the boodlers, for the benefit of the boodlers, and so as to do most good for paving the road into offices, | payment of the bill. | Pennypacker, might | ‘a | have been behead. | virtue of Col. | with the Repub- | to the death for, Liberty —the equal well (the | it and | This was THE MUZZLERS, The Pittsburg daily Post makes the following appropriate comment : ‘The one notable thing of the conven. tion was its action and non-action on the press muzzle law, We leave this to the Republican press of the State, which without exception has called on the con- vention to itepudiate the law, and de- vounce its inventors and promoters, It gets the slap direct in the face—is treat. ed with contumely and contempt. How itcan face the insult and sink its man- hood and self-respect in the very gutter and cesspool of degradation is incredible. The inventor, promoter and vital force of the press muzzle law was indorsed without a word of opposition. The State senator who voted for it and promoted its passage was nominated for an im. portant office, despite the strong and united call from the Republican news- papers of the State that he should be cast aside as unworthy of public confid- ence.”’ The above is very good, but it does not go far enough. The Post should be consistent, not partisan, say that State Chairman J. K. P, Hall sat in his sena- torial seat and refused to vote against this republican.Quay-organization bill, Because Hall is a democrat, the Post has tried to shield him and offer some very It Hall was hobunobbing with Penrose and the thin excuses, is asserted that Gang, that being the case it is an iusalt to have such a man These are to genuine democrats as our State leader. facts, though deplorable, we must face them, if we would be honest ADULTERATED BOODLE. War to all Dairy and Food Commissioner ren has issued a circular letter ralers of food products in Pennsyl- vania, calling attention to the provisions of the food adulteration act passed by the last Legislature “Birdie” to see that no adulterated food of any kind is put on the market, many being of the opinion that *'Birdie’” will wink at such violations of the law, Warren's duties are It will be remem- bered that "*Birdie’’ himself ‘once upon a time" He was appointed by Governor Hastings as economic zoologist, and was instructed did a little aduiterating. lo issue a pamphlet upon insects, which wou!d have been quite large if taking up thirty pages, at a cost of some three to five hundred dollars. Warren however, adulterated the job, without orders, by ipjecting about 3500 pages matter treating of the birds of Penn’a with ex of pensive pictures, from which it got the name of “Bird Book.” For *adul- teration” he charged the state $65,000, this upon which, when it came to the notice | of Governor Hastings he kicked Birdie Warren out of his office, and stopped Hence he is better known since as “Birdie” Warren, strange to say, bim as inspector to drive out adulterated food DEMOCRACY DEFINED Mr. Wi York, president ' McDowell, of New of the iam OQ Cuban-American league, was asked ut the close of one of his lectures: “What ception of democracy the correct con He is replied | anti and | appointed “It is an aspiration—na determined pur. pose—hoping for, struggling for, fighting | wing of all men, upon a creed that asserts the natural diguity and birthright equality of all men, It is the golden rule, the ten com. mandments, the Sermon on the Mount, and the American Declaration express. ed in a single word.” The word ‘democracy,’ be it will seen, has a meaning deep and broad | Fob It is derived from the Greek and means the rule of the people, and the rule of the people, resting as it does upon the doctrines set forth in the Declaration It is a religion built | ! ] : ] of Independence, can only be preserved | by the cultivation of a profound and uni. versal respect for human rights Both aristocracy and constantly at war wit plutocracy are the democrat must be not only vigilant and active, but be must know that his Own security rests upon the protection of the equal rights of all. p— tf e—— WHERE THEY MAKE THE MISTAKE. President Roosevelt, General Miles and others unite in saying : “Agricul. ture is our principal industry.” There is a slight mistake in the sentence. As far as the course of this government as now directed is concerned, the sentence should be amended to read, “Robbing agriculture is our principal industry,” With high tariff, high transportation rates, and trusts controlling all the farmer has to buy, while be himself has no trust, and no protection in any way to enhance his income, to prattle in praise of agriculture is so ironical that it is getting rusty. — Ex, Teacher's Salaries, School teachers for the next season will not come under the new law adopted by the last Legislature making the mini: mum salary of all teachers of the state in districts that receivetbe state's ald $35 per month, as the measure will not become effective until June 1, 1904, and by that time the school sessions will be ended, Many have been under the im. pression that the bill became effective this year and that teachers who began this fall would receive the benefits of it, “Boonie” and politics in our public school boards is something that shouM not be tolerated, Good idea to keep an eve on our schools.
