That Absurd Apportionment
The present senate bill reapportion
ing; the Btate into congressional dls
trlcts commits itwo manifest Injustices,
entirely apart from its gratuitous yok
ing; of Lackawanna with Susquehanna.
It slaps the Republicans ot Wayne
county flatly in the face, by consign
ing; them ito the hopeless oblivion In
volved irt a union with Democratic
strongholds like Pike, Northampton,
Carbon, and Monroe; and It repays the
splendid work of the Republicans of
Schuylkill county by throwing upon It
the wet blanket of an unnatural alli
ance with Democratic Columbia. In
each of these cases, nothing would be
gained by the suggested change; and
much would be losit.
But the crowning error of this ab-
Burd reapportionment bill In found In
ita treatment of the present Eleventh
congressional district, which was al
tered unknown to ithe Benator from
this district, Mr. Vaughan, who Is a
member of the committee having the
bill in charge, and is persisted in
against the expressed desire of nearly
every leading Republican In Lacka
wanna county. It Is no reflection upon
Susquehanna county ito say that in a
congressional sense it has almost noth
ing in common with Lackawanna, Its
Interests are agricultural; Lackawan
na's are wholly industrial. Its popula
tion Is stationary; Lackawanna's is
growing rapidly. No bond of common
Interest would unlto the two counties;
and an alliance between them now
would doubtless have to ie severed at
the next reapportionment, because the
district then would probably far exceed
in population even the new ratio.
The three counties of Schuylkill, Lu
zerne and Lackawanna, representing
almost the whole of a great fuel indus
try In whose prosperity every Ameri
can is interested, amply deserve their
present representation in congress. The
attempt to Interfere with that repre
sentation is as impolitic as it is unnec
essary and unsolicited. We call upon
the representatives of these counties at
Harrlsburg to unite in a protest against
the senate committee's unwarranted
attack upon the existing order of
things. The matter is too important to
be thus lightly Juggled about, without
consultation with the people directly
Interested.
The Cotton States Exposition.
' On Sept 18 there will open In Atlanta
one of the finest expositions ever
known In this country with the ex
ception of the World's Columbian ex
position at Chicago probably the finest.
It will continue until Dec. 31, and will
be attended by hundreds of thousands
of people from all over the United
States, , Canada, Mexico, Cuba, and
Central and Southern America. Many
persons will also attend from Europe.
The Cotton States and International
exposition will have large separate
buildings devoted to manufactures and
the liberal arts, machinery, mining and
forestry, agriculture, electricity, trans
portation, negro exhibit, fine arts,
woman's work, fire apparatus,- United
States government exhibit, an audito
rium and an administration-building.
There will also be several state build
ings and other structures.
New York will take the lead in the
matter of state exhibits, the New York
legislature having just before adjourn
ment voted $25,000 for this purpose; but
Pennsylvania will be well represented.
The commission from this state will
be headed by Governor Hastings, and
will comprise the president of the sen
ate, the speaker of the house, the state
treasurer, and the following commis
sioners, serving undergubernatlonal ap
pointment: Hamilton Dlsston, B. B.
Hubert, H. F. Berwyn, and William
Slngerly, of Philadelphia; C. A. Paint
er, of .Allegheny; Fletcher Coleman, of
WlUIamsport; N. L. Lovell, of Erie;
William Connell, of Scran tori; J. L.
Spangler, of Bellefonte; O. H. Meyers,
of Bethlehem; Alexander Dempter, of
Pittsburg, and R. B. Powell, of Shade
land. The opportunity is' now afforded to
the alert business men of Pennsylvania
to make a valuable bid for more Inti
mate commercial relations with the
people of the southern states. The
Pennsylvania exhibit atAtlanta should
be of such a character as not only to
attract favorable attention from
Americans, but also to appeal to the
shrewd agents who will be present
from the Lattn-Amerlcan countries,
Money prudently expended In this man
ner rarely falls to bring good returns
and the South is the section In which
future development promises . to be
most brisk.
Needs of Local Charities.
Information received from Harrlsburg
Is to the effect that the appropriations
committee of the house has decided to
report In favor of giving to the Carbon
dale hospital the full amount, J12.000,
sought for it by Representative O'Mal
ley. Only four requests out of the many
which have come before the committee
have been thus favored; a facit which
speaks well for Mr. O'Malley's steward
ship.
The Carbondale hospital, however,
fully deserves this gcnerouB considera
tion. It Is one of the beat, neatest and
most serviceable Institutions of Its kind
In the anthracite region, and Scran
tonians can consistently proffer to their
friends In the Pioneer City cordial con
gratulatlons upon this happy recognl
tion.
At the same time, It must remain a
matter of profound regret that the ap
propriation committee has not seen Its
way clear to a more liberal treatment
of the charitable institutions of Scran
ton. Its sla:ilr!ng of the Oral school ap
prnpriatlon In iattlcular Is most deplor
able, and If not corrected must almopt
Inevitably Involve a regrettable curtail
ment of that excellent school's useful
nrss. With no wish to underrate the
merits of other Institutions, we think It
only'fair to say that In this Instance, at
least, the legislature Is In danger of
making a serious mistake.
Death to Reporters.
The commander-in-chief of the Span
ish forces In Cuba has announced that
hereafter any newspaper correspondent
who shall visit the rebel camp will. If
afterward caught Inside the Spanish
lines, be promptly executed. The pur
pose of this order is both to guard
against the carrying of tales and like
wise to gain for the government forces
a monopoly of the means of communl
eating with tho outside world. Its effect
will be greatly to strengthen tho cause
of the Cuban patriots in the sympathy
of every fair-minded observer of their
unequal struggle for liberty.
No other nation than Spain would
Issue such an order, even during a war
to the death, much less a mere brush
between undisciplined Islanders and
picked regulars. The order Is char
acteristic of a race to which we owe
the worst cruelties of the inquisition
and the even more damnable tortures
of the Cortez Invasion of Mexico. One
can understand from It why the people
of Cuba, during many generations, have
subordinated every other hope and aim
to the one consuming passion for free
dom from Spanish misrule. And It
ought to nerve them to yet more de
termined battle In liberty's behalf.
Would that America had a decent pre
text to Intervene!
Whitewashing the Sultan.
Rear Admiral Klrkland, commanding
the European Bquadron, has sent to the
navy department at Washington an ex
tended report upon the recent Armenian
massacres. He has ascertained from
casual talks with various consular offi
cials that If there were any massacres
In Armenia, they were not so black as
they have been painted; and they oc
curred, if at all, unknown to the sultan
and contrary to his desire.
All this Is Interesting; but It can hard
ly be deemed important. Testimony as
good as Admiral Kirkland's and a good
deal more direct, has been adduced In
proof thait the alleged massacres did
occur; that they were frightful satur
nalias of lust and ferocity; and that, If
tho Turkish authorities did not openly
encourage their commission, they at
least were wholly powerless to enforce
law and maintain order.
The question foi civilization to de
termine is not what some half-dozen
consular ofTldals scattered along the
Turkish coast think of the sultan, but
whether a government which utterly
falls to protect Its citizens against wan
ton rapine, cruelty and assassination is
sufficiently In unison with modern Ideas
to "be allowed to continue on Its In
competent way. Admiral Kirkland's
report to the navy department hardly
touches the real Issue.
Would It not be well on the part of the
senate committee on congressional re
apportionment to take the trouble, to
consult with the representative citizens
of this district before summarily yoking
another county to Lackawanna? Or Is
that committee desirous of discourag
ing Republican progress? . .
The household goods of John and
Marian Manola Mason have Just been
forcibly sold by auction In Boston; but
It Is hoped that the sale did not Include
trie home-like domicile of "Frits' Ko-

charm have carried sunshine to thou
sands.
The Philadelphia Inquirer imagines
that Thomas C. Piatt is "not as dead
as his enemies wish.". Mr. Piatt Is un
doubtedly a good "stayer"; but It Is
doubtful If he can long survive the loss
of popular confidence. ' '.
It Is an interesting discovery of the
last census that in 16 out of 28 of our
leading cities the males outnumber
the females; while In the whole country
there were. 32,067,380 males to only 30,
554,370 females. And yet, the life of
the average woman.ls longer by several
months than that of the average man.
Perhaps these inequalities would not
exist of we should admit fewer un
qualified male Immigrants from Europe.
Kate Field pays one of the handsom
est of possible tributes to Admiral
Meade when she says: "I have never
known a more ardent American." It
Is because he la an American that un
der this denationalized administration
he Is no longer an active admiral.
The British admiral who claimed that
England's recent seizure of Corlnto put
an end to the Monroe doctrine is re
commended not to make that state
ment after March 4, 1897.
Whatever may have been Mr. Cleve
land's secret hopes, his treatment of
Admiral Meade puts the finishing touch
on tha mausoleum of his political fu
ture. Secretary Herbert Is probably the
only ex-Confederate who would care ifo
take the Initiative in lecturing a patriot
like Admiral Meade on loyalty.
This congressional district is already
safely Republican, and the Cleveland

never be asked to serve as president.

WISK AND OTHERWISE.
Sometimes the courteous politician over
reaches hlmfwlf. This was evidently tho
case with the "wctl-known congressman"
concerning whom the Youth's Companion
tolls this story: The congressman in ques
tion, who had teen a f urnier before ho went
Into politics, was visiting his district not
long ago, and In his rnmblos ho saw a man
In a stumpy patch of ground trying to get
a plow throuBh it. He went over to him
anil, nfter a brier salutation. asKeu tne
privilege of muklng a turn or two with
the plow. The native shook his head
doubtfully as ho looked at his visitor's
store clothes and general ulr of elegant
leisure, but he let him tuke the plow. The
congressman sailed away with it in fine
stylo and made four or live rurrows Derore
tho owner of the field could recover from
his surprise. Then he pulled up nnd hand
ed the handles to the original holder. "By
gravy, mister," said the farmer, admir
ingly, "n'r you in nggercultural busi
ness?" "No," laughed tho statesman.
"Y ain't Bellin' plows?" "No." "Then
what In thunder air S'ou?" "I'm member
of congress from this district." "Air you
the man I voted for and that I ve been
readln' about In the papers doln' leglslatln'
and sich In Waahin'ton?" "Yes." "Well,
by hokey, mister," said the farmer, as lie
looked with admiration over the recently
plowed furrows', "ef I'd a had any Idea
that I was votln" fer a waste of slch good
farmln' material I'd voted for the other
candidate as shore as shootin'!"
NOT WORTH THAT:
"A penny for your thoughts!" she cried
To the dtideling by her side,
Then she Btopped to reconsider
And her calm reflection bid her
Not to cling
To a bargain quite so rash;
So she spoke up like a flash:
"Hold! That's what bad habits bring
In my extravagant way
I always do pay
About two prices for a thing!"
Exchange.
Here Is a story, though he did not tell It
himself, that went the rounds of the New
York clubs when Harry Furnlss, the cele
brated English caricaturist, visited tho
states two years ago. Be it known that
American journalists and American flan
eurs read Punch as a production abso
lutely devoid of humor. Two men were
quarreling violently In a club smoking
room. "I tell you I saw a man sitting
hdre an hour ago laughing over a copy of
London Punch.' "Impossible!" replied
his companion. "I don't believe there is
a man In America who could laugh over
London Punch." The discussion waxed
furious nnd at Inst bets were made on the
subject. Suddenly a thought struck the
second man. "What was the fellow like
you saw reading Punch?" "A little,
sandy-bearded man, with a rather bald
head and a big mustache." "Ah!" replied
his interlocutor, "now I see. Why, that
was Harry Furnlss himself."
LOCATED AT LAST:
'Silence Is golden," remarked the man
who loves to quote.
"Are you sure of that?" asker Mr. Meek-
ton, a ray of Interest lighting up his de
jected countenance.
"Certainly."

The queen of Italy is an excellent musi
cian, whereas King Humbert displays but
little artistic taste and has certainly no
ear for music. Of late tha queen has been
compelled to use spectacles when reading.
The II 1st time her husband who detests
them saw her wearing a pair, he ex
claimed: "Margherita, take off those
glasses!" But the queen laughingly re
fused to obey; and the king, having ex
hausted h's powers of persuasion, at lust
said solemnly: "Margherita, If you don't
put away those glasses, I shnll start sing.
Ing. The effect of this simple threat was
magical. Rather than listen to the false
notes of her spouse the queen Instantly
gave way.

The Hartford TlmeB says an Invention
haa been perfected In that city by which
an ordinary coul fire, without the aid of
dynamo or battery, will supply alt the
electrical light and power that could be
desired In a household. The generator,
which resembles a chenp stove, Is said to
havo supplied a 110-volt current for the
last three years, operating a pump and
running other machinery, and Is still as
good as new. Five ordinary Incandescent
lamps, it Is stated, are maintained at a
cost In consumption of coal ot 1c. an hour.
The device involves the union of two met
als In a multiplication of wedge-shaped
bits of alloy, with various appliances to
prevent oxidization. Full confidence Is
expressed by the Hartford paper In the
practical success of the Invention, which

the customer. "Nlnetcentsyar," repeated
tho clerk. "I cannot understand you,"

from the marquis demanding an explana
tion of certain representations that had
been made to him, a matter, as we now
recall, involving the charge that Roose
velt had been inciting discontent among
the mnrquls' employes. Roosevelt lmme
dlntely mounted his horse and rode over to
his neighbor's. He did not Indulge In any
correspondence at all; he preferred to get
right at the kernel of the affair by having
a personal Interview with the marquis.
"A man who writes a letter of that kind
must want something," said Roosevelt,
"so I've come over to see what you want.'
"I am entirely satisfied," said the Mar
quis de Mores, as blandly as you please.
"Your explanation assures me that the
Information which disturbed me was
wholly Incorrect." Of course, there had
been no explanation; but the marquis had
tact enough to perceive that It would be
better to yield gracefully rather than run

POLITICAL NOTES.
One of the flying rumors has It that Son
ator Fllnn, of Allegheny, may succeed
Judge Qilkeson as state chairman.
In the opinion of many Republicans,
there will be no reapportionment this
year, a belief which causes little general
tear-sheddlng.
Both Senutors Vaughan and Harden-
bergh are opposed to the senate plan of
congressional reapportionment; and It Is
understood that the house delegations
from Wayne, Susquehanna and Lacka
wanna will align solidly against it should
further effort be made to pass the senate
bill.
Among the Welsh-Americans the condl
ducy of Hon. John T. Williams, of Hyde
Purk, for delegate to the next Republican
national convention Is received with evi
dent favor. Mr. Williams' popularttty
among all classes Is very marked; and
must prove extremely gratifying to his
numerous mends.
Philadelphia advices are to the effect
that Senator Quay, aided by Magistrate
Durham, Senator Penrose and James Mo
Mo lies, will begin at once to carry the war
into the enemy's country by contesting
with the Martin-Porter forces In every
Philadelphia ward for delegates to the
next state convention.
