Dr. Silas C. Swallow, the "Fighting
Parson," candidate for Governor of Penn
sy vania on the Prohibition, People',
Liberty and Honest Government ticket,
spoke to an audience that comfortably
filled the court room Monday afternoon.
I Tnose w ho expected to hear the doctor
i deliver one of bis much advertised
' harangues against the Republican party
and the Republican State leaders were
greatly disappointed, since bis remarks
were devoted laigely to reiterating the
cbargesiif corruption incident to the re
fitting of Grace church for the reception
of the general assembly, after the destruc
tion of the State Capitol by fire, w hich
resulted in his arrest and conviction on a
charge of libel. The doctor alleged that
both eft be old parties the Republican
and Democratic are under the domination
of a few men w ho use thein for their per.
tonal and selfish e-ids ; (hat the State has
been robbed of a sum estimated at
OOOXiO during the past fifteen years by
corrupt olfieials ; that the Democratic
J party is as foul as the Republiea.1 parly,
and the only way to keep the slate from
goiut; to the deiuualion bow-wows is to
place the reins of government iu the bands
of one of the various parties he represents
and to elect hi in governor. He raid that
the Johu-stown Democrat of Monday
morning sought to create the impression
that the Democratic party was the first to
allege official corruption at Harrisburg
and that the speaker was, entitled to no
credit for the charges he has made. "How
does it come," he demanded, "that I was
prosecuted for libel if others brought the
charges on w hich the suits were based?"
Tbe doctor declared that Jenks has no
show of election aud that he is in the
fight to the finish. His remarks through
out were very temperate, and did not win
a single round of applause.
Mr. Vo'ucy B. Cnshiug, who preceded
Dr. Swallow, declared with great positiv e
nesa that Jenks is tbe hindmost man in
the race for governor and that Swallow is
a sure w inner. The people are going to
break up machine rule," he said, "and
they are not going to desert the Republi
can machine for the Democratic niacin e,
for oue is just as bad as the other." Mr.
Cushinglold a numlerof amusing stories
iu capita! style, and was frequently ap
plauded by tbe audience.
The first speaker was Mr. Bradford, a
fine old specimen of tbe Massachusetts
political theorist, who spoke for fifteen
minutes on purifying and bettering po
litical conditions generally. He said that
he had been attracted by Doctor Swallow's
courageous attack on the political ma
chines in Pennsylvania and that he had
determined to corns into the Slate and see
w hat kind of a man the "righting parson'
actually was. He gave it as his opinion
that there is a general awakening ail over
the country and that corrupt ollicia s,
wherever they be found, those who
utilize public moneys for their private
ends would soon be driven from power.
All of the speakers were dignified,
pleasant gentlemen, and seemed to be
dreadfully in earnest. .
Rev. H. N. Cameron, of 'he Methodist
Church, presided and introduced the
onttors.
Thoaudience was mace up almost en
tirely from Somerset and a small delega
tion from Berlin. Leading Ucpt-blicaus
and Democrats were conspicuom ia the
audience. Twenty-five or thirty ladies
were present and were cordially welcom
ed by Doctor Swallow.
The Swallow par.y arrived here on the
10 a. m. train from Johnstown, and were
met at tho railroad station by Mr. Isaac
Jones, oue of tneoldest and most consist
ent Prohibitionists iu thecounty w ho gave
them a warm greeti g. The Berlin Cornet
Band escorted tbe party to the Hotel
Vannear, where they discoursed a num
ber of popular selections.

A Special Thanktgiving.
Governor Hastings has issued the fol
lowing proclamation :
"Tbepeopleof Pennsylvania, with their
fellow-citizens throughout the land, have
great cause at, this time for rejoicing and
thanksgiving. A foreign power, by the
barbarous and iubuman trea ment of its
subjects, has shocked the civilized world.
The American people reached the point
where they aid no longer permit hu
manity to be so cruelly outraged almost
under tbe shadow of their own flag. In
the struggle which followed, God's guid
ing hand was abundantly manifested.
The people answered as one man to the
country's call. Our army and navy exe
cuted, with unparalleled valor, the will
of the Nation. .Oar victories !y sea and
on land were signal triumphs for civ il i
z it ion and free government.
"Pennsylvania's surviving soldiers have
returned to their homes, bringing renew
ed proofs of their devotion to tbe flag.
Where opportunity came they won the
laurels always coveted by the American
soldier, and where opportunity came not
their devotion and steadfastness were de
serving of equal praise.
"The people of the Commonwealth, in
accord in?e with tbe sentiment of the
hour, desiring to make public rxianifeslr
tion of their appreciation of tbe aorvice?
ana sncrilbies of those who so nobly sus
tained the Nation's honor, will bold in
the city of Philadelphia on October 2i and
27 a peace jubilee, and it has been deemed
meet aud proper that one of the aforesaid
diys be set apart as a day of thanksgiv
ing and prayer.
"Now, therefore, I, Dmicl H. Hastings,
Governor of tbe said Commonwealth, do,
by virtue of the act of General Assembly
approved June 2!, 17, authoriziag tbe
chief executiveto appoint days of thanks
giving and prayer or other religious ob
servance, issue this, my proclamation,
designating and setting apart Thursday,
October 27, as a special d-iy of thanksgiv
ing aud prayer to Almighty God.
And I do recommend that our usual
placea of worship be filled with God fear
ing, thankful and patriotic worshipers,
praying that the influence of tbe day'a
observance may find fruition in the years
to come in that rectitude of life, that de
votioa.to home and country and that per
formance of every private and public
duty which shall be well pleasing to Him,
to the end that the future shall know
nothing but peace, and that the results of
the war may prove a permanent blessing
to our land and to the cause of advancing
civilizuion."

Gvern-r D. II. Hayings evidently
expects to make Bt-llelonte his future
home after his term is ended, as extensive
repair are biag in la to his residence
in that place, which will make it oue of
the finest in the town. It amounts prac
tically to the I uildmg of a new house, as
nothing but the old foundations will be
used. The building is to be completed by
January, when his term as Governor ex
pires. The front of the building will be 120
feet. Tbe exterior is a severe type of old
colonial architecture. The walls will be
tif brick, with br.wnstone trimmings for
the base and white marble superstruct
ure. The roof will be of green alate. Tbe
interior of tbe house wilt be finished in
polished hard woo'.la, with wood parquet
floors. Plate glass windows throughout
and the best sanitary plumbing will be
introduo-d.
The building bts one of the finest
locations in the town. It stands in the
centre of a large plot and on an eleva
tion from the street, and a beautiful
shaded aud terraced Vid surrounding
It. Tbe large massive atone wall and
step add to the general Appearance,
and when nompluted will be one of the
haudaornest homes in that part of the
stale.

A Washington dispatch aaya:
"Senator 'oay has been busy Air tbe
past two weeks preparing a speech which
he will deliver in reply to the many
charges which have been made concern
ing his management of Republican poli
tics iu Pennsylvania during ths past
q jarterof a century. It Is bis Intention
to doliver the speech noxt week in tbe
city of Philadelphia, as he considers that
locality tbe stamping ground of his most
bitter polith-al opponents. The speech
has already been completed and is now
undo' going a thorough end painstaking
revision.
"Just what matters will .be touched
npon Senator " 2 iiily refuses to divulge,
but be staled that the speech wonid fur
nish a complete refutation of ail tbe
charges that have boeu launched against
bitn during the premmt healed campaign
in Pennsylvania. The opinion has been
prevalent that Senator Q-iay'a physical
condition, would not permit him to take
tbe ro4rum iu his own defense, but the
Senator vigorojsly denies this and asserts
that he never felt better qualified than at
present to make a crusade against his
arch-enemies."

-The acquisition of Porto Rico is a very
valuable one. Although Dot more than
one twelfth the size of Cuba, it has half
tbe population that Cuba possessed when
the recent revolution began. Cuba then
had about l.CnO, 000 population, CJO.OOOof
whom were blacks and tbe others native
Cubans aud Spaniards; but when the
Spanish army shfll have been withdrawn.
followed by theSpanish officials and those
iuteresd in the Spanish government,
the population of Cuba will probably not
exceed a million, or may be not so much.
Several hundred thousand lives of Cubans
have been sacrificed to tbe barbarism of
Spain in addition to the casualties of war,
and Cuba w ill start on her new destiny
with a population of nearly or quite a
million.
Porto Rico has a population of a boat
8u0,000, with a larger proportion .f whites
than there were iu Cuba. It has not been
rocked iu the tempest of revolution and
its business conditions are promising. It
has bc-en greatly retarded in progress by
the extortionate exactions of the Spaniau
goverumenjbut as there is no desolation
there such as now exists in Cuba, there is
no reason why Porto Rico should not at
once advance rapidly in every lino of in
dustrial and commercial progress.
An overwhelming majority of the peo
ple of Porto Rico are in cordial sympathy
with the United States and will gratefully
accept the authority of our government
aud its generous laws. American capital
will doubtless speedily quicken industrial
activities in our new acquisition, as there
is uo one field within the jurisdiction of
the United Slates that is so promising for
legitimate enterprise. It has one of the
most salubrious of the tropical climates
aud will soon have a large number of
American visitors iu the winter season.
Purto Rico is thus fiuaily accepted as a
province of the United SUtes. Cuba w ill
follow as an independent republic that
must soon be thoroughly Americanized
uuder our protection, and doubtless an
nexed to the United States in the near
future, leaving the Philippines as the
ouly unsettled issue of the war.

Conditions in Dawson City as they ex i.t-

a report made to the State Department by
United States Consul McCook. He says
the city made rapid strides during August
in the matter of building. There would
be no lack of provisions or merchandise
this win ter. Prices of supplies were com
ing down owing to the large amount com
ing in, so that a fifty-pound sack of flour,
which formerly cost can now be had

Cousul, "can enjoy hotel life at present at

The Consul says that typhoid is on the
increase, causing many deaths, but would

The Delaware county court set a prece
dent for school teachers who have trouble
with the school boards and are set aside
after having been once notified of an en
gagement, even though they have not
signed a contract to teach school before
they are removed.
Miss Margaret Custer, of Llanwellen,
was engaged to teach tchool ft r the Pros
pect school boa rd. Previous to notifying
the school board that she would accept
tbe place she made application for anoth
er school at another place, but on being
rofused.it she at once notified the Prospect
board that she would take the place.
Some one notified the members of the
bard of the effort of Miss Custor to get
the other school and they notified ber that
they did not want her and elected another
teacher iu ber place. She sue! the board
for the nine months' salary and the court
and jury granted it to her, giving her
judgment for f SS5, with interest.
Tbe case has attracted wide attention
throughout the county and several other
boards will now havesuilson their hands
for the same offense.
Judge Bittenger, of York county, is the
latest judge to taboo one of tbe Pennsyl
vania statutes as unconstitutional, an act
of la which provides that children of
Union soldiers shall be entitled to in
struction In any other school district t ban
the one in which they reside, upon tbe
payment to the school district receiving
them, by the district in which the pupil
permanently resides, of the amount per
pupil that it coata the receiving district
to maintain its schools. Tbe decision
rendered was in a case of the York school

A Cam Cross ad Eyes Operated Upon ia a
Boy ef Six Tears.
Pareuts of children with crossed eyes
are generally of tbe opinion that an oper
ation in cases of young children is dan
gerous and by delaying the latter, spoil
a most important part of tbe operation,
namely, the chances of recovering tbe
sight in the Inflicted eye or eyes. A
crossed eye is excluded from tbe act of
seeing and Invariably becomes weaker.
Drs. Sigmanu aud Sadler, 04 Penn
avenue, Pittsburg. Pa., have operated on
crossed eyes in children under six years,
and tbe happy result of Master George
Aul, a six-year-old boy of No. 115 7th
street, whose eyes were recently straight
ened by Dr. Sigraano, is a new testimo
nial of tbe great success of these well
known rpecialists. People living in the
country should take advantage of the
cheap excursion rates for tbe Pittsburgh
Exposition to consult these eminent sur
geons in all ailments of Eye, Ear, Note
and Throat.
