GiiocxDHuu or no groundbog, this
has been a mighty hard'winter so far,
n1 the end i not yet.
When tbe bolters come up for re-election
they are likely t meet the fign:
-'No loiters need apply-"
Thk last trouble t Manila would
probably never have occurred had tbe
peace treaty been j.romptly ratified
when it as first sent to the Senate.

The Filipino native women are rap

tbe statemeut that death lurks iu every

Wall stklet has been booming du

the command of the army, according
to the Washington yellow journal cor

Those embalmed beef ktories are only
too true, and they dare not try to sup
press the truth by deposing Miles.
The war with Spain is ended at last.
The treaty of peace negotiated between
tbe I'nited Slates and Spain, at Paris,
was ratified by the Senate on Monday,
the vote being 57 ayes to 'S! nays, r

Thehe is no cessation in the icono
clastic work of shattering long-cherished
illusions. One expert now de
clares that the grip is really nothing
more than old fashioned influenza, and
another asserts that whisky aggravates
snake bites. All beauty is being strip
ped from life by this cold-blooded ex
pert testimony.
At the Republican primary election
held in Lebanon county Saturday to
nominate a candidate for State Senator
i t fill the vacancy created by the resig
nation as Senator of Lieutenant-Governor
Gobin, the anti-Quay candidate
won out. The contest was an extreme
ly bitter one and .several of the auti
Quy bi-odlers were arrested ou a
charge of bribery.
The present year promises to be one
of exceptional prosperity. Ilusiness
that has been stagnant for years is on
the increase, with every indication for
greater advancement within tbe next
few months. Stocks are higher than
they have been for years, money seems
plentiful, and all have work or can get
it who want it. The prospects for good
times have not been as bright for many
Years.
AlixmsCi to a correspondent of an
Ohio newspaper who had accused him
of sleeping in his seat, Representative
R rosins of Pennsylvania said: "If he
were born a beast he would be a pan
ther; if he were born a bird he would
1 1 a buzzard; if be were born a reptile
lie would be a lizard, and if an insect
lie would be a bedbug. Hut, chancing
to be born a human, he is only a black
hearted and unmitigated liar." But,
possi."lv, I5ri-ius was temporarily in
sane, like General Lagan, when he
said this.
There has been considerable crm
meut over Governor Stone's letter de
claring himself for Senator Quay. Why
should be not do so? The only oppo
sition waged against him in his cam
paign was that he was a Quay man,
had been nominated by Quay, and even
went so far as to intimate that he would
lie controlled by Quay. He received
all the blame it was possible to heap
upon him, still he was elected. What
lher course could he now pursue? If
all were true that was said about him
by his opponents, then he would be an
ingrate if he did not stand up now for
the man who nominated aud elected
hi in.
The patriotic wxrieties are doing a
notable work in encouraging the boys
aud girls of the country to turn their
attention to American history. The
prizes and medals offered for essays
hearing ou colouial and Revolutionary
hUtory will stimulate youthful interest
in those epochs to a gratifyingextent,
for the institutions of our nation can
not be thoroughly appreciated until a
thorough knowledge is acquired of the
means that brought alut their estab
lishment, and of the sacrifices by which
they were secured to us. Xo better am
hition could be roused in youthful stu
dents thau one to master the national
history.
Scarcely a day passees but the ene
mies of Senator Quay unearth some
atrocious plot that the Senator is about
to spring to discomfit bis enemies and
compass his election. The uneartbiug
of these ploU is always followed a day
after by an elaborate explanation of
how they would have been sprung had
it not been for the remarkable keenness
of the anti-Quay people in discovering
and publishing them at the opportune
moment; and thus it goes from day to
day. If the ,401d Man" eontemplates
a "coup" it is not likely that Mr. Wan
amakerand bis hired men will know
anything about it until tbe mine is
sprung and they find themselves boo
hing about like so many chickens with
their heads cut off.
Axother week has come and gone,
and still there ia no material change in
the senatorial fight at Harrisburg. Sen
ator Quay still lacks thirteen votes of a
sufficient number to secure his re-election.
At a joint session on Monday
there were only twenty-three votes cast,
nineteen of which were for Quay, three
for Jenka, and one for John Stewart
The bolting Republicans are in a sorry
plight They dare not go to a Demo
erut, they will not vote for Quay, and
tVy can not unite on any of their uu
merous candidates to whom they can
arry sufficient Democratic strength to
elect. Their future does iwt seem to
jLve a roseate coloring. For the pres.
fat, as a tail to the Democratic dog,
they are able to preveut the election of
Senator Quay, but beyond this they are
powerless to accomplish anything; ant
when the final break comes they are
not likely to have a voiee in naming a
fvnator. Senator Quay's friends are
prepared to conticae the fight for party
regularity and majority rule through
out tbe entire petition, and are full of
c-mlid.iice foal they will tun out iu
the end.
la there an honest Republican in
Si.iuerset county who does not believe
that Representatives K"ontr and Ken
dall are violating their instructions and
misrepresenting their constituent each
time that they east a t-allot against the
re-election of Senator Q'Jay to the Uni
ted States Senate. They were instruct
ed for Quay by the popular vote, he is
tbe caucus nominee, and, as such, ia
doubly entitled to their support. It is
true that Quay was the only candidate
at tbe primaries, and that many of the
voters scratched his name from their
tickets, but, nevertheless, lie received
a large majority of tbe votes cast. It
surely wasn't the business of the friends
of Senator Quay to look up a candidate
for the other side. lkith Koomz and
Kendall were minority candidates,
Quay having received at the primaries
GOO more vote than the former, and
over TOO more than the latter. If the
friends of Senator Quay in the county
had pursued the same tactics that
Messrs. Koontz and Kendall are pursu
ing to day, and had bolted their nom
ination, neither of the gentlemen would
be misrepresenting his constituents iu
Harrisburg as he Is now doing. The
large majority of Somerset county Re
publicans are believers in regularity
and In majority- rule, and they had a
right to believe that their Representa
tives would respect their wishes aud
vote for the candidate of their choice.
A KfKTHEK humiliation has been
put upon Somerset county Ilt-publicaus
by the action of oue of their Repre
sentatives ( Koontz) in refusing to vote
for a resolution endorsing President
Mt-Kinley's views on the expansion
question, and extending to him an in
vitation to visit Harrisburg as the guest
of the State. A Harrisburg dispatch
of Friday has this to say on the subject
"Some of the bolting Republicans plac
ed themselves in a suit further embar
rassing position, as far as their standing
in tba Iteoublican party is concerned, in
tae consideration of a matter which came
before lilt) tiouso of KepreHenlallves Ibis
morning- A resolution offered by lioetor
X at. of latiphin, was reported from the
Odnuittlee on federal KelalioiiK. it in
il red President Kt-Kiuiey k views on
Hie expansion question and extended au
invitation to bun to visit liarrisburjr as
the Kiie-a of the State. Representative
t'reasy. of Columbia, and other Jtamo
eralic tiiMinbera objected to the clause in
the res'iluuen relating to the expansion
issue aud movad to postpone further -oti
si. Oration of the question. Four, of Phil-
adilptim, made au argument against tbe
clause recognizing the sovereignty of the
I nit xi Males in the rbiiippinea.
Mr. Baldwin, of Delaware, on the Re
publican side, spoke for the resolution
and in favor of tba President's policy on
the exnansiou Question.
Mr. MeOain. of Lancaster, said he had
an abidiug faith in the President, and
urged the passage of the resolution, lie
thought it a patriotic duty of every Am
erican to stand by tbe President
Mr. Creasy demanded a division of the
question on the clause alti rilling the right
of sovereignty over tbe Philippine Isl
am's.
The expansionists won by a vote of O)
to 4-L I he resolution was then adopted
without division. The vote was on strict
party lines. The liemoeiata approved
the clause to invite the Presidcut to liar
ris burg, but did not insist on a roll call,
and tba resolution was adopted as intro
duced.
A significant feature of the voting was
the lao that the Van Yalkenberg siren Is,
in order u curry favor w ith the I'enio
crats, ran about the bait of tbe House urg
ing the tiolting republican not to vote
They have been antagonizing the Demo
crats on so many propositions that tbe
managers of the boiling contingent feared
they would by opposing tbe Creasy reso
lution give the Democrats another excuse
to break away on the Senatorial question.
Tbe result of this canvassing was that
there was but a majority of tweuty-two
in tbe vote to sustain the President's
policy. Among tbe bolting Republican
who were present. Nit did not vote, were
Allen, hsiiiiach, Keed. Savage and Strad
ling. followers of David Martin, from
Philadelphia; McElbany and MeOand
less, su ppoi tvrs of William Flinn, of Al
legheny; Young, of Tioga; Sexton, of
Montgomery, aud Koontz, of Somerset"
Representative Koontz, for the pur
pose of currying favor with the Demo
crats whom he is weak enough to
think, notwithstanding their recent
sale to him of a gold brick on the
Speakership, may vote for him for Sen
ator, refuses to vote for a resolution sus
taining the policy of President McKin
ley. What do the Republicans of Som
erset county think of this action on the
pirt of their servile representative?
Too cowardly to vote with his Demo
cratic allies, he remains in his seat
without voting. Representative Koontz
should either throw clT his mask and
gi over bag and baggage to the Democ
racy, quit trying to play Republican, or
r.-ign.

The- senatorial situation remain pra-.
tically unchanged, tbe Stalwarts, Inde
pendents and Democrat presenting un
broken linew. Thebieak H likely toocvur
any day and may not come at all. Those
who profeM to have inside inforinaf inn
predict, however, that the break iu Hie
Doui'jcratic liu6s w ill probably come Ibis
week when the McCarreil bill will come
ap in the House. It passed the Senate
last' Wednesday when two Democrat I"1
Senatoi-9 voted for iL Tbe bill was
promptly messaged to the House and oil
Friday was favorably rejsirud by tbe
Judiciary Committee, tbe four Demo
cratic members voting with a majority
of the Repu licans. The ction cf the
Democrats in favoring the bill has created
no end of bitterness in the ranks of the
minority party and a caucus called for
the purpose of securing united action was
a dismal failure. The Democrat are like
ly to split up any minute and when they
do it will speedily be determined bow-
many of theiu ean be controlled by tho
bargain counter statesman.
The Democrats have beeu very wary of
Wauamaker ever siuce the fusion scheme
to elect K'Xmtz Speaker failed, and now
they deniaud that an alkeulmrg
secures cupper-riveted pledges from the
anti-Utiayites fc support a straigh'out
Democrat for Senator before they will
enter into any ne detail. Ibis or
course Van Valkenburg is unable to do.
since Flinn and M artin will never agree
to support a Democrat at the risk of hav
ing Pennsylvania represented by a single
Senator at Washington. Flinn and Mar
tin are prompted by revenge in their hos
tility to Quay and their cunning in get
ting tbe Senators and Representatives,
who signed tbe pledge not to vote for
him while be is resting under criminal
charges, to commit themselves so deeply
that they cannot support Quay in case of
his a.sjuiul is one of the amusing leatur 1
of the senatorial battle.
Senator Weller and Representative
Kendall furnish illustrations of this move
on the part of tbe city bosses. Weller Is
put upon the platform at the daily meet
ings of the bolters to declare his positiou
and at a recent meeting Kendall was call
ed upon to say where be stood, lie is re
ported to have declared that he was at
first opposed to Quay, but that he was
open to conv.ction, and then went on to
say that he was not only argned with but
was offered something more substantial
than arguments to change his mind. It
is currently reported around the hotel
lobbies that Mr. Kendall, feeling the im
portance of his position anil tbe value of
bis vote was a party to an oflei submitted
totheQuay managers, which was prompt
ly turned djwn. It is also alleged that
he visited the Quay headquarters the day
of tbe senatorial caucus, when he declar
ed his intention to attend that meeting
and abide by the decision of tbe major
ity.
Martin and Flinn realize the necessity
of getting such timber into a position
where they will be as putty in their
bands, hence these sputterings that ap
pear in the daily papers.
In the multitude of bills that have been
presented it is pausing strange that none
are fathered by General Koontz of your
county. He is a member of theJudiciary
General Committee and being fully ac
quainted with the evils that have grown
up iu counties having associate judges il
was thought that be would present a bill
correcting the abuses complained of. It
is said that he will introduce a bill before
tbe close of the session separating tbe
present judicial district of Bedford and
Somerset, and in event of its passing he
will become a candidate for President
Judge of Somerset county.
Koontz continues to cast his vote for
John Stewart and in doing so maintains
his position of being "regular"' a rgular
kicker since Jsi!. It appears inconsistent
iu such a rabid and vigorous kicker
against party organization to be check by
jow l w ith bosses Flinn and Martin, and
flatly contradict his oft repeated protest
agaiust boss rule. Tbe trouble w ith the
"battle scarred warrior" seems to be that
be has not been permitted to Niss him
self. In his present position he is about
the best bossed man in the Stair; but w ho
wouldn't be bossed with a Fniuid Slates
Senstorship held up before his eyes, as
certain Democratic papers are holding up
tjf fire the optics of the Somerset Repre
seiitative!
Bolters Bolt tho President
From the Philadelphia Inquirer.
It is to be expei-ted. of course, that
Democrats of tbe Fcgborn Fow order
w ill antagonize tbe policies of ibe Presi
dent of the Uuiled States, but w hen Re
publicans do it, w hat is to be thought of
them?
In various States the Legislatures have
jumped at the opportunity to support
McKinley and to declare for tbe ratifica
tion of the treaty with Spain. It has re
maiued for certain Republicans, or al
ledged Republicans, of Pennsylvania,
bich has always claimed with pride to
be tbe most patriotic of all tbe States, to
reruse aid to the President
The resolution of confl len-e in the
President, indorsing his Philippine pol
icy and inviting him to Harrisbnrg, as
tbe guest of the State was adopted by the
House at tbe Friday session, but just
look at the beautiful array of dodgers, all
of wbota claim to be Republicans. Here
they are:
Allen, Laultach, Reed, Savage- and
Straddling David Martin's men.
McElbany and McCandless William
Flinu's men.
Young, of Tioga; Sexton, of Montgom
ery ; Heniall. of Chester, and Koontz, of
Somerset John Wanaiuaker's men.
It is the same old combination that
magnificent "reform" combination o
Marti -1, Fliun and Wanatnaker.
When men owe allegiance to such lead
era it it but a step f.om opposing the will
of the majority of the Republican psrty
of Pennsylvania to opposing the Presi
deut and tbe Republican party of the
Nation.
These men did not dare, apparently, to
vote directly against the President, and
s itbeytook the cowardly course of not
voting at all. Such is Wanamakerism !
Isn't Chester county proud of il man
Kendall? Didn't it honor itself when it
chise a Bolter to go to Harrisburg ? And
how happy Somerset must be with
Koontz and Tiog with Young and Mont
gomery with Sexton! As for the others
well, Martin and Piinn must ha proud
of them, for they own them poli;ic.ii;y.
But whst does tbe Republican party of
Pennsylvania think of IL Bolters? What
opinion does il bold of men who, claim
ing to be Republicans, will not support
tba superb Republicanism of William
McKinley and prefer WanamakerUin
aud party dishonor to it?
It is not difficult to anticipate the end
of such Bolters.
It does Sffra as though the seedsmen
would stop somewhere, but here comes a
work of art. Think of It, twenty-four

Philadelphia. Ib. 7. Business Inter
.: of th state which have main -f-I'.c-s
In this city are watching very
riosely the Introduction of bills in the
b-Kislaturc which affect thtlr opera
tions or which may interfere with their
continued prosperity by occasioning ex
tra exoense. either for taxation or
through regulations which are not now
icquired. The commercial world Is es
pecially Interested In a resolution which
was Introduced la the state senate by
Senator Neeiy. cf Clarion county, which
has an Important bearing upon the tax
ation cf corporations and which may
result in a large Increase in the annual
revenues of ttw- state. The preamble
f the resoluMon sets forth that there
are certain companies, associations or
corporations, doing business in Pcnn
sytvania. organised and formed for lb-puriK't-e
of carrying fivisbt. and com
monly known ss "fast freight lines.""
among others the Anchor line. Union
line. Blue line. Green line, I'nion Tank
line. Empire line and Merchants' line,
that have capital Invested In this state
amounting to many millions of dollars,
and that the records of the treasury
department do not show that 'the said
corporations have complied with 'the
revenue laws of the state or paid taxes
a required by law.
WANTS AN IXVKSTIGATION.
The resolution provides that if the
house concur there shall be a commit
tee appointed consisting of three mem
bers vt tbe house of representative,
to be named by the speaker, and two
members of the senate, to be named by
the president, and that thev be au
thorized to Investigate the reason or
cau.e for such failure to comply with
the law and all matters connected
therewith, with power to subpoena wit
nesses and compel by process their at
tendance, with such books and papers
as may te deemed necessary, befor
them, the said committee, to give evi
dence In like manner as in any court
of record: the report of said committee
to be presented to this legislature not
later than Wednesday, March 1J. W.
provided that the meetings of said
committee shall If held in the -city of
Harrisburg. and provided further that
the members of said committee shall
serve without compensation, the only
expense Incident to the said Investiga
tion to be the fees of the stenographer,
which the said committee is hereby au
thorized to employ, provision for which
shall be inserted In the general ap
propriation bill.
AFTF.R RAILROAD COMPANIES.
The resolution was referred to the
committee on Judiciary special.
Senator Neely also introduied a bill
on the same subject, which will require
railroad companies engaged In busi
ness under charters granted by the
state to Incorporate In their annual re
ports to the secretary of internal af
fairs the names of all express com
panies uIng or making shipments over
their lines, together with the amounts
received by said railroad companies
from said transportation companies
and th amounts paid by said railroad
companies by reason and on account
of the business transaned between
them In the carriage of express and
freight matter and the employment of
the rolling stock of the respective com
panies. It is claimed that the passage of this
bill will make subject to taxation im
mense sums of money made by cer
tain freight companies which have here
tofore escaped the tax gathcrirs of
ficials of the commonwealth.
The bill was referred to the com
mittee on Judiciary general.
MINE OWNERS CONCERNED.
Officers of the big mining and coal
concerns which transact their business
In this city show apprehension over
the prospects of the passage of a bill
which. If It becomes a law. would make
the corporations or Individuals own.ng
mining properties financially, if not
criminally, lesponsible for accidents to
employes. This bill was introduced in
the house at Harrisburg by Repre
sentative TIghe, of Luzerne. A decision
of trie supreme court relieves corpora
tions from liability for damages for
injuries to employes of v'ines when ac
cidents causins the Injuries are due
to negligence of what are known as
mine boss-es. superintendents and fore
men. This bill defines the relationship
between mine tmsses, supe intendents
and foremen of coal min. s and per
sons, firms or corporations owning
or operating the same, and provides
that "In all actions for the recov
ery of dr.mages against persons, firms
or corporations owning or operating
coal mines in this state brought by.
or on behalf cf. any employe of the
came or by his heirs or legal repre
sentatives, for Injuries sustained by
said employe while acting as such,
whether said injuries may have result
ed fatally or otherwise, any act of neg
ligence. wheh?r of commission or
emission or. the rart of any mine boss,
(superintendent or foreman which may
huve resulted in or in any degree made
poss.ble said injuries to any employe
as sforesaid. shall be deemed and held
to be the set of a representative or
agont or said persons, firms or cor
porations owning or opt-ratinj; said
coal mines and not the act of a co
rn) ploye uf the person Injured."
The laboring interests will make thl
one of tbe special measures to he ad
vocated this ss.--ion. They hold that
frequently the lives of hundreds of
men who have gone down in the mines
re imperilled by the neglit.nce of em
ploy? of the corporations, whereas if
I lie companiea were made liable for
damages such neglect would not be
likely to occur. The shutting off of
ven llatlon or the stoppage of pumps
has frequently caused the death of
many miners.
FOR CHEAPER FREIGHT RATES.
At the off.cn of the steam railroais
J.t this city reports from Harrisburg
are scanned dally to see what progress
js being made by the proposed leglsla
lion which is favorable to the developr
nient of tbe trolley lines cf the state,
The steam roada will fight the propo
sition to give the trolleys the right of
eminent domain and they will also bit-r
Jerly oppose the bill which gives the
trolley roads the right to carry freight,
express packages and the Fnited States
mails. There is a movement among
I he grangers in favor of these bills,
as It is claimed their passage will not
only b-s a great convenience to the
farmers living along the lines of the
trolleys, but that the competition be
tween the trolleys and the steam roads
will have a tendency to reduce freight
en the transportation of milk, butter,
rggs and other farm products, which
are frequently shipped but short dis
tames o market. Man oiemliers of
tbe legislature have received letters
from their constituents requesting them
to vole for thess bills.
MILLIONAIRES ARE ALARMED.
A bill which has already brought
forth denunciations from the million,
aires and oil-.cr monied men la this
iliy and. for that matter, in all sec
tions of the state, is that of Senator
Gibson, of Erie, which provides for an
Income tax. It proposes to assess, levy
and collect a state Income tax as fol
lows: To tax gains, profits or income
derived from any kind of property,
rents. Intereis. dividends or aalary. ci
from any profession, trade, employ
mnt or vocation carried on In thli
state, a tax of one-tenth of 1 per cent
on all sums between J1.000 and $3,000;
two-tenths tf 1 per cent on sums be
tween ti.OOO and 110.000; three-tenth
of 1 Der cent on sums between $10,009
and S20.0GO; four-tenths of I per cent
on all sums between lO.OOO and $30.010;
five-tenths cf 1 per cent cn all sums
between $30,000 and $50,090. and ons
rnill of additional taxation shall b
added for every additional I3.0o0 up to
$100,000 ; 3 per cent cn all sums above
$U0.eoo. Interest on bondj or securities
of this state and of the Fnited States
are exempt from taxation. The word
Income, a I used In the act shall be
taken to mean gross profit. The tax

Thrsa atillieat t r7 th Cubsa Army.
General Maximo Gomtr. inecosnmand-er-
in-chief if the Cuban army, idaced
,:.t-!f ..-e!v in mwitica last Thurs
day a an active ally of the United States
Government in the work or me r.-
s' ruction of Culf.
A a result of tbe conicreuco wi.mu
t. .1 . r P..r'.cr. the fpecial coiiiui-
siouerof l'resident McKinley. baa had
with General (ioiim, the latter rai.ieu 10
.k- r.;,tent asuiine him of his co op
eration in di-dmn ding the Cnbsn army.
..,.1 in rf -irii iitiiiif amnnir that 11 nan oi
diers the :,ot',i iippr. piitd f-r the
purpose of enabling luem to retcril to
their homes. General Gomex also tele
graphed to Mi'j r General Brooke, say mg
be would accept the latter's inxitation to
go to Havana.
ti, i.vs cf Mr. l'ortei's mission
greatly simplififs the returning of the
military Cu'ums to the pursuit of peace.
In view rf General Gomez's supposed
prior attitude of h utility towards the
Fnited States. Mr. l'orler wa clothed
with absolute authority, anil the tender
of $.:,0nd,on0 was practically a verbal ulti
matum. Had it not beeu accepteo, .
more ultimatums would have been made.
How long the Cuban troops will remain
ru-jai tit 11 blv neaceable. ami for bow long a
period they will rtfrain from congenial
crime or petty brigandage, can not iw
foretold ; but the fact that when once paid
oir they w ill lose their present statu as
soldiers, and can thereafter be carried
awsy to th nearest caIalxK.se every mue
ih .re rai.pbt In the act. is believed by
the War Department to be the most eill
cacious method of restoring some sem
blance of order in those provinces in
which the army is at present housing.
Tbe fa-t that General Gomez promptly
consented to accept three millions of d.,l-
lr for bis troens. when be found that
his absurd demands for forty millions
unnlJ Iia eiven no consideration, ooes
not surprise the Administration. The Cu
ban character is gradually wing umi. r-
Bt.sid at Washington.
