WEDNESDAY March 8. ISW.
Jcdce Day and Senator Grar, two of
the l'aris Peace tVHiiiiiissioDers, have
received their reward in the shape of a
United States Judgeship.
Fifteen thousand iroa workers in
rit!UirR have had their wt-s a.l

the ctlauiity-howler refu-s to be com
forted. It is wh:i-red alxnit that the sena
torial deadlock at llarribburg will be
broken to day. If it thould last over
this week there is no telling when it
will end.
Ovei: eight thou-and of the insur
gents in the Philippines are said to be
ready to j'iit the game. They have
had enough of Aguinaldo, and they
are willing to tome in now and lie
good.
Mr. Ci.kvei.axi'8 name is occasion

eraged leas than 7,000,000 a month.
The present average is over $4,000, "00

lican tariff get along together hai.d
BOtnely. Tue new Director of the Ccusus is
ex tiovernor William IL Merriman, of
Minnesota. The present iucumbent
has not yet finished the publication of
all the ftafstics of the census of IsiiO.
It is to lie hoped that Director Merri
man will be able to do the work in less
time than his predecessor.
The Johuftown Tribune pertinently
inquire: "Would it cot 1 well for the
.Philadelphia 7V to ask Hrother In
surgent Koontz to have a Iegisdutite
Committee appointed to investigate the
doings of the District Attorney and
Judge in the Philadelphia Court, w hen
the trial of the Quays was pof juried '."
At a caucus of Democratic Congress
men in Washington, to decide upon a
policy, it was declared by resoluth O
that the Democratic party stiji stands
upon the constitution. A more comet
way of putting it would be to say that
the party stands still upon the constitu
tion, and that it always will be found
standing still.
The President has appointed Judge
John I. MePberson, of Harrisburg, to
the United States Court bench, to sue
eed Judge Butler. The appointment
is one eminently fit to be made. Gov
ernor Sione has uot yet indicated whom
he will appoint ae Judge McPherson's
successor on the Common Pleas bench
of Dauphin county.
A IX th E reports of the war investi
gation -boards have brought forth the
uniform cry of "whitewash." Hud
the reports leeu exactly the reverse in
their findings, the same cry of "white
wash" would have lieen raised. There
are two morals to this incident: First,
the public is a hard customer to please;
second, there are two sides to every
question.
The army b 11 has been passed am
ended so that the author of the origi
nal bill scarcely recognizes it. The fear
that no bill autaoriziog the needed in
crease in the army should be passed
this session, thus makiug necessary an
extra session of Congress, coerced rnem
lers to vote for a bill they did not like.
The new bill makes the increase last
only until the jear 1901.
Up to February 20 the total casual
ties to the American army in the Phil
ippines, from the Filipino outbreak,
amounted to CS killed and SIS wound
ed. Previous to that the record gave
a total of 2K died of disease and killed
by Spaniards. The casualties to the
army sent to "Manila from bullets and
disease is less than 700 for operations
covering eight months.
Both Republican factions at Harris
burg last week surrendered to the Dem
ocrats and unanimously adopted the
amendment to the Superior Court bill
providing for minority representation
on the beuch of that Court, although
it had previously lieen defeated. The
Democrat in the Legislature r In &
fiosition to demand favors and they are
not alow in taking advantage of it.
The next United States Senate w ill
liave a larger Republican majority than
the one that has just concluded its ses
sion. The latter hud 4'J Republicans,
."4 Democrats and 10 lVpuiists, a Re
publican majority of two. The coin
tug Seuate is likely to have 5.1 Republi--aua,
17 Democrats and 8 Populists,
Republican majority of 20 the larg
est senatorial majority since the days of
the Civil War, w hec there were no Sen
ators from the South.
The bill now befjre the House cm
powering school boards to organize
themselves into boards of health is a
good bill to pass, tys the Harrisburg
Telegraph. If it had been in operation
some months ago there would have
been do need to call on the State Board
of Health to aid Bedford when that
county had an epidemic very like small
pox. The local ecijooi boards could
have taken the matter in charge and
dealt with the situation without auy
outside help.
The abuse that is being heaped upon
Speaker Farr for adjourning the House
ou Friday was to have been expected,
says the Philadelphia Inquirer Men
who bolt their party are no longer gov
erned by rule or customs. Those who
Lave been fighting the candidate of the
Republican majority for Senator on no
other ground than a personal desire to
beat him, care nothing for the princi
ple of majority rule, and they very nat
urally criticise and abuse all who refuse
to follow them into a state of politi
ck anarchy. The bolters wanted the
Hoose to remain in session after -the
regular hour for adjournment on Fri
day, the Speaker merely enforced the
very plain rule, and there was anar
chy. That is the whole story (a a few
ords, and the fact can not be changed
Jy threats aid denunciations coming
tmrn men wfco, fc!ng taltsM, no lanpr
rt-cognl rule.
Speaker Farr, in adjourning the
House, was entirely right- According
to the rules now ia force the House
meets on Fridays at 10.S0 and adjourns
at 11. When the hour of lrarrives ic
is only necessary for any member to
call for the order of the day, and the
order is a declaration of adjournment
on .the tart of the Speaker. For the
Speaker to act otherwise would bo to
usurp power that does not belong to
him, to ally himself with anarchy, to
render himself liable to impeachment.
No parliamentarian who has the slight
est respect for his osn opinion could
take any other view. Speaker Farr was
simply obliged to enforce the rules, and
the fact that he is assailed byisia
tors who have violated party honor
themselves is high commendation for
the fairuews and impartiality of the
Speaker, for in attacking him they but
show their utter contempt for law and
order.
Ix THE Joint Assembly at Harris
burg Monday only 20 votes were cast
for United States Senator, of which
Quay received 1 1, Jenks 8, Tubbs I. At
Friday's session three of those who had
been heretofore voting for Quay, Hersh
aud Yates of Philadelphia, and Mackey
of Lackawanna, deserted him and cast
their lot w ith the bolters. This disaf
fection from the Quay racks had been
discounted weeks ago by the Quay
managers and was a surprise to no one.
While many of the bolters at the out
start gave as their reason for bolting
the party caucus and joining hands
with the Democrats in the senatorial
fight that they could not vote for Sen
ator Q Jay w hile the criminal charges
against him remained undisposed of,
the practical abandonment of these
cases by the prosecuting attorney does
not seem to have changed their opposi
tion in the least, and shows that this
plea was merely a make-shift used for
the purpose of concealing their actual
motives aud of deceiving their constit
uents. The friends of the Senator aud
his political managers are still confi
dent of his ultimate triumph, while his
enemies claim that his re-election by
the present Legislature is an impossi
bility. The chances are that Quay will
succeed himself or there will be no
election. It is not within the bounds
of reason that a large majority will
submit to be dictated to by a small
minority.
Hucaied to His Death.
Ks .State Treasurer Haywood, says the
Philadelphia Inquirer, who was iudicted
"with Senator Quay aud the latter' son
Uicliard, will nnt he tried, for he is dead,
ile lm.1 not teeu ia robust health for some
time, and there can lw no doubt that bis
end was hastened by the attacks of polit
ical enemies who have been trying to ad
vance their own personal Interests. It
may lie said w ith a good deal of truth that
be has been hounded to death.
Men are constituted differently. Sena
tor Quay, w ho has beeu pursued as no
publio man has been in recent years, is
still enabled to face his enemies. Mr.
Haywood, with failing health, did not
have the physical strength, and he has
succumbed to abase and vilification. It
in to be hoped that those who have been
conducting on the stump the most mon
strous campaign of slander and falsehood
in the history of the State are satisfied as
far as Haywood is concerned. He is dead,
and they can gloat over it in their secret
conclaves if they will. But Quay is alive
and still in a condition to defy tlieiu.
And yet it is a wonder that he is so, far
he has been made the victim of eonlinu
oos abuse. A inoxt dwperate campaign
has been waged against him. From every
stump he ban been charged with every
crime, and lying tongues have lashed him
with their venom in the hope that organ
ized hypocrisy might gain personal ad
vantage by bis downfall. Organized by
pocrisy is rid of Haywot!, and one era
readily imagine the riotous glee tbut
would prevail in some quarters could
Quay be driven into his grave. Tn.it
time has not come, and we venture to
predict that Quay will live to triumph
over the character assassins and the hyp
ocrilical vilitiers, for nothing more disas
Irons could overtake this State than its
surrender to pretenders.

A Great Paper.
The souvenir edition of the Pbiladel
phia Inquirer, issued March 2, in com
meuioratioo of the tenth anniversary of
the present management, has been re
ceived and we can truthfully say that it
ia the finest illustration of newspaper
enterprise ever witnessed in Pennsylva
nia. When Mr. James Elverson asaum
ed control of The Inqilrer in 19 it was
predicted in some quarters that he wculd
n-vcr succeed in rehabilitating that once
prosperous and influential journal, hut
those who held that view were doomed
to disappointment, for The Inquirer ad
vanced by giant strides under his judi
cious and liberal management and with
in a few years distanced all of its com
petitors in point of circulation, adver
tising patronage and political influence.
Au interesting feature of the souvenir is
a handsomely printed scppleuient, in
which appear half tone illustrations of
Tb Inquirer's palatial home, showing all
of the moot recent devices and applmuoea
for the turning out of a great metropolitan
newspaper. The Inquirer has twen true
t itself and its large nstltuency and
we take pleasure in extending our con
gratulations for all that It has accom
plished for Pennsylvania and the eoun
try generally.

Secretary Long cabled Admiral Dewey
as follows: "Heartiest congratulations
upon your deserved promotion as ad
miral. President adds his congratulations
on your confirmation."
Every warship in the world, of what
ever Power, from this ou, must be the
first to dip its ring on meeting Admiral
Dewey's flagship, for he is the highest
naval officer afloat His salute is seven
teen guns and he will fly the admiral's
flag of four stars, placed diagonally on
a navy blue field, and will wear epau
lettes decorated by four embroidered
stars, the end stars being worked over
four anchors.
Admiral Dewey, as well, ranks above
every officer in the United States army,
including Major General Miles, and in,
therefore, in supreme command in the
Philippines and in every joint action
of the navy and army. If all the fleets
of the world, as tbey are now officered,
should gather for a celebration or display,
every foreign flag would be lowered to
Admiral Dewey, and hia flagship would
lead the procession.
The V.jited States has had but two

and a corresponding jump iu salary from

retired by age limit ia December next,
but by the terms of the new Admiral
bill hH active service is extended ten
years. He holds the office for life and
the grade will die with him.
The President also nominated Brig.
Gen. Klwell S. Otis, U. S. A., to be a
maj-'ir general by brevet, to rank from
February 4, 1S99, for military skill and
motit distinguished service in the Philip
piuu islands. This nomination was also
canfirmed by the Senate, and Secretary
Alger seut the following measage to Gen.
Otis at Manila: "You have been nomi

Hobion's Promotion.
A dispatch from Washington says: The
President's nomination of Richmoud
Pearson Hobson, to be advanced ten num
bers from No. 1 on the list of assistant
naval constructors, it is said by naval
officers to constitute the greatest material
promotion as a recognition of gallantry
in Ihe history of the naval serv'ce. It
will make Hobson a captain at tha age of
30. His advancement amounts to 250
numbers in the line of the navy, which
is remarkable in comparison with the
single number secured by Admiral
Dewey, eight numbers by Admiral Samp
son and from three to five each by other
officers during the war with Spain. When
it was proposed to promote Hobson to
the foot of the grade of lieutenant com
manders, the "jump" amounted to about
150 numbers only, hut under the nomi
nation made yesterday Hobson skips
over all tbe lieutenant commanders and
goes nearly to the top of the commanders'
list, so far aa relative rank is concerned.

Etbuke for Voa Deidrichs.
Bf.ri.is, March . A high official of
the German naval denartinent says that
the appoiutment of Prince Henry o,
Prussia, brother of the emperor, to tbi
command of the East Asiatic fquajron
was decided upon as being the most
available, the emperor desiring to show
ths American people that he is thorough
ly friendly to them, knowing that Prine
Henry is popular in the I'nited States.
When the official referred to was asked
whether the appoiir.meut wits equivalent
to tbe disgrace of Admiral von Diedriehs
he said; "Not exactly. Our government
unfoi Innately was advised toolateofs
number of occurrences before Manila,
none of which were really important;
but they showed grave want of tact epoi
Admiral von Deidricb's part. The main
trouble was that Admiral von Deidricb
was insufficiently iuformed regarding in
ternational naval nsagea in such a deli
cats situation. Consequently' he contin
ued naval movements, drill and searc.
light practice as if elsewhere tbau io a
blockaded port, thus arousing distrust
upon the part of the Americana."

er Karr Meet With Popular Coa-Ut-lunation.
(Special Correspondence.)
HsrrisbiiDt. Mitr.b T. The bolting
Rcpuhliraus In the Icjcislatnre under the
leadership of Ikjsws Martin ami Fliim
made a scandalous record tor themselves
last week. Without the slightest justifi
cation they attempted to organize a
"rump" meeting of the bouse of repre
sentatives. Taking a ruling or tbe chair as a pre
text to make trouble, as was done on
the previous break in the senatorial con
vention, tbe insurgents organized what
was practically a mass meetiuir after th
house was adjourned last Friday. The
l-ltins Republican, with their IH-mo-crntic
allies eseintr them on, soncht "
discredit John R. Farr, the seker of
the honpp, and Io contribute to a sen
sitliotKtl yeiie wilh the pnroc of injur
ing Senator Quay in his cauvass for re
elect ion.
Never was a scheme for the breaking
up of a ward political convention hi the
baliwlclcs of either of these two bosses
worked so boldly. For a while tbe lead
ers of the rump meeting actually as
sumed to te conducting the piweediucs
of a rcsrnlarly organized and properly
constituted branch of the sreneral as
sembly. When they came to their sobor
sensj-s, however, as they did after their
previous bolting exjaTience, tbey realized
tlirt they had no leiral standing as a
Uly. thut their action was unwarranted
nti'l revolutionary, and if carried mmh
farther might have h"d to serious con
sequence to the men who assumed to
usurp tbe positions of the rcguulrly
chfted officers of the house.
MI ST HAVE TROFBLE.
Mutters had Ut n goiug along entirely
tts smoothly for the bolters. Their var
ious attempts at sensational plays had
all fallen flat. Tbey were evidently
reaming for an opsirtunity to fijrnre
aicaiu, to disconcert the regular Republi
cans and to excite public sympathy for
their cause. Tbe thin reform veneer of
this Flinti-Msrtin-Wanainaker outfit lunl
wont off Ion:: a so. The whole state bud
sized up the entire outfit. The servile
followers of Fliim. iu the west, and of
Martin in the east, all politicians of the
most practical school, and the disap
pointed and disrcnthsl candidates for
the KKakership, Biiss of IH-laware and
Kisintx of Somerset, and the others in
this queer tontiut'eut of "business men
in isilitii-s." had all Isss.me known to th
in-oiIc. Their filibustering tactics for
nets in the McCarreil bill tiidit bud
seriously iinHiled lepislation. They re
ulix 1 that they were beiu? generally
condemned, and esMria!ly by the Re-
inibiicans who believe in arty supremacy
and in the rule of the majority and who
have in every county In the state given
etression to their disgnst at the man
euvcritis of tbe men seeking to defeat
the regular nominee of the Republican
mucus for the scnatorship.
The row occurred when Repreucnta
five Marshall, of Allegheny, at 11 o'clock
in the morning, called "the order of
tbe day," which, under the rules of the
house, meant adjournment. There bail
Ihh'U a filibustering move made ea rlier in
I he morning by Representative Slater de
mamlim: the reading of tne journal. The
bolters had a scheme set up to spring a
iot of sensational resolution criticizing
the action of tbe committee appoiuted to
investigate the charges of bribery af
fc-cting the McCarreil jury bill vote. The
cegulnrs were determined to block this
move. If possible, knowing that it was
. mere play for the gailerics and also
iiiit the investigators bnd planned to
ptish their work in the afternoon.
Pi eaker parr gave a decision thst under
the rules the house, upon Mr. Marshall's
rs 11, stood adjvnrncd. The bolters,
with 151i: of Delawa.e in the chair, af
terward held a meeting, in which they
denounced the s)M'aker aud appointed a
.onmiittif to draft resolutions con
demning his action- Tbe meetiug wa
made up mostly of Democrats, with the
tsItiiig licpuhlicnn doing the talking.
They had uot a quorum, however, though
they talked wildly a Unit electing a new
speaker. It was all done to create d'ts
cord and to discredit the regular Re
publican organization.
THK SPEAKER'S STATEMENT.
SM'iikT Furr naturally feels pained
that iu order to carry out a game of
politic, the men who led the rump pro
ceedings should attempt to place him iu
a false position before the people of th-
state. He made the following manly anil
straightforward stutcmeut iu reference
to bis decision:
"My decision in declairing the boils-.'
adjourned at 11 o'clock waa strictly ia
acordance with the rules of the house,
and other action would have been an
usurpation of authority upon my part.
When the house of representatives met
iijion the .".d of January, IStHI. the fol
lowing resolution was adopted, to wit:
'Resolved, That until otherwise
ordered, the rtilca of the house of rep
resent. itivrs of l.s!7, as presented iu
Sum!!' h;n.llM.k. be ado.cd for the
Soverniiient of the bouse during the pre-e
nt session.'
"Among the rules in osration during
the session of INI" and re-enated by the
atsive resolution for the government of
the present bullae was the fallowing:
" 'Rule oil The house will convene ou
Mondays at 8 o'clock p. m.. and adjourn
at IU o'clock p. m., and on Fridays will
i-iivene at it o'clock and adjourn at 11
oMock a. in.'
"On the tSUh day of January, 1R)0, the
following resolution was unanimously
adopted, to wit:
"Resolved, That nntit otherwise or
dered, the sessions of the housp. on Frl
days, shall begin at 10.30 o'clock a. m.,
and the same order of business now pre
scribed shall be gone through with, and
that additional sessions of the honse be
fixed for ll..V o'clock a. tn., for Satur
days and Mondays.
"This resolution changed the honr of
meeting from St to lrt.STJ o'clock a. in., but
the hour of adjournment remained pa-
EVER WATCHFUL.
Constantly on the Alert is the Qr.Iy
Guarantee of the Future,
When we hear of a burglary iq our neight
borhood, we always take th most cr-faj
prtciulion to fastea and lock p o-ir'prea.
n-s When we reid a "danjr" sigi, wi
bred its warr-ing. None hut the reckless
rush into dangerous places anlesi cotnp-iitd
by necessity, nd still thousand opoo tboa
taods receive a note of warni- g jily, a
4nger signal of dep import, and io eot
give it a passing thought.
A httie backache, a twinge, a twitch, or
pains in the back, sre not very bard to bear
a: fiist, but they're a warning, a danger signal
of what's coming. Most backache pain, arc
d-e to kidney disorders; pass them by an
noticed, acd tbe kidneys become more
troubled. In time urinary con:p!inti,
Bnght's disease, and death molt, he crer
witLbful of a backache. A few doses of
boan' Kidney pills taken at the proper time
will save fdture trouble, perhaps life itself.
Mr. Jjmes McElhaney, contractor, of 15
H l.kle avenue, franklin Pa., siys:
osed Doan s Kidney Pilis in the summtr cf
tSo6. was in-eitriemed by a rep-esentatj
and allowed my opinion to be expressed ia
the Franklin newspapers. At that time they
rehev-d me of backache and lameness and
corrected the kidney secretions. Ia March,
1897, I sprained my hack badly, and a Im
aejs jusl in one spot was painfully evident.
1 procured Doan's Kidney P,li a second
timr, and from my experience and tbt resul s
received, 1 can conscientiously recorr.aiend
ttem to tbe people of Frar.kho or acywhert
!e as a preparation ap to their tft,,;qt
ations." r
