Thk Kepubl icaiis of Luicaster cou nty

Thk country hopes that the brief va

year the Presideut has been through
an ordeal few men have been called up

In a short time AguitiaMo's army

Much a conilitioii at the winding up of
a war is in the highest degree crediia
ble to the party in power.
Tjikhe are confident persons who
b.-lieve that a Tinted States Senator
will lie elected at Htrrisburg before th 9
first of April. The line are now so
I ightly drawn that it's doubtful whether
' ilonel lay could transfer his vote to
Senator Magee or any other candidate
n t acceptable to the chief s-jppirters
of the lieaver statesman, even' if he
wanted to do so.
All over the country Methoditt Con
ferences are passing resolutions ce
mtoding that PjIygioiNt Roberts, of
Utah, shall not b. permitted t) take
his seat in Congress. Ojr well-nieau-ing
Methodist brethren seem to have
lost sight of the fact that Congress, not
having the power to go behind tie re
turns, can not prevent Riberts from be-
in; sworn in; but if he persists in hav
ing three wives, Congress can expel
liina for gross immirality an 1 that is
what should tie, and lik-ly will lie done.
Corn) anything le more grt.terrjtie
than P. titer K'KHitz, late fusion candi
date for Speaker of the House, asking
f ir the chairin inship of the Hepubli

place Aguinaldo in command of lev-
ey'a fl-et in Manila bay would not be
more aU-mrd. It my lie that li liter
K luiitz is ouly j iking, or that the
friends of tiie "old warrior'' are playing
horse with him. Tiie chairm n of the

will be a Republican, not a bilter nor

Jamaica, it is said, is anxious to be
annexed to the I'nited States. The
Caroline Islands, too, it is said, want to
come under American sway. This is
implimentary t- th.9 country, but it
will not start us out on a policy of pro
miscuous annexation. Cuba, Porto Ki-
, and the Philippines give the United
H-:.ate all the new territory which it
cares to assimilate at present. Proba

The esteemed Philadelphia Pre
says "The delegates to the State con
vention from lilair county elected on
Saturday are instructed for General
Koontz for State Chairman." This
view is hardly the one entertained by
General Kooutz. who was instructed by
a majority of the voters of this county
to vote for Senator Quay, but who has
lieen casting his vote for Judge Stew
art, who was the Independent candi
date for Governor in Ivfil. However,
we take it that the Blair county in
structions will be obeyed because the
gentlemen elected believe in the right
of the majority to rul.
The warring Republicans in the Del
aware and California Legislatures have
ftoled the session a'ay and in both in
stances have adj-MiPfi x'.ti: with
out electiug a L'uited States Senator.
In loth bodies the R p:ihli(,ans ha J a
a clear m-ijority, Irit were unable to
agree, s-- b.t'a Slates mast go for the
next two years with but one Senator.
Toe Utah legislature has done the
name thing, but there the legislature
was Democratic, so that this inexcusa
ble state of allairs loses two Senators to
the Republicans and one to the Demo
crats. The necessity of a change in the
method of electing United States Sen
ators has been emphasized by the les
pous of the past winter.
The expenditures of the recent Con
gress were high, of course. The war
ai'.d the growth of the country are res
poiiKible for the increase in outlay by
the Government in the past yetr. The
war expenditures will soon diminish to
a considerable extent The growth in
population, however, will las unless
the Democratic party gets into power,
and thu9 precipitates another panic.
From present indications that calamity
is far distant The outlook for the De-lu-acracy
was seldom more unpromising
than it is at this moment.
The signing of the peace treaty by
the Queen Regent of Spain Friday
brings the Spanish-American war offi
cially to an end. The fighting part of
the war, as occasionally happens in
such cases, was shorter than the pro
ceedings which brought peace. Min
ister Woodford was given his posxporU
in Madrid on April '21, isns, and the
war officially began, although Spain
did not formally make any declaration
until the 24th that war existed, and on
the 2".th Congress passed an act which
proclaimed that war had liegun on the
21 sL On August 12 the protocol was
tiigned in Washington and an armis
tice proclaimed. The treaty of peace
was signed in Paris ou December 10.
It was ratified by the Senate on Febru
ary C, lSi, and the ratification for
Spain, by the band cf the Q leen Re
gen?, took place on March 17.
It '"ZTIZ tit ts s'lrrisicg If ?..i.ia
the next ten day fi.atar Qa.y n? to
announce himself as a candidate for
chairman of the Republican State com

newspapers are urging him to do, and
n.tis demonstrate that be is the choice
of the Republican voters of the tvtate,
and leave the bolters who are now op-
posing him without excuse ior saying
that be is not. In the election of Rep
wpnts.tive8 last fall he won by a two-
to-one vote, and we believe his majority
would be much larger this year, in
every coouty iu which delegates tc the

Apropos of the above we hear it
whispered about that certain iutereVed
uarties are quietly endeavoring to have
a bill Introduced dividing this judicial
district and creatiug a separate district
of Somerset cmufy. This would 1
useless and needless expense aud wrild
benefit the taiayers about as much as
would a law providing foran additional

t.le will all agree that two Associates
are a plenty. If this bill is introduced
it will be a good one to kill, and, should
it pass, we have abundant assurance
that the integrity and good sense of
the Governor will Impel him to veto it.
The bribery investigating committee
at HarrUburg thus far has utterly fail
ed to develop anything of a nsational
character. The purpose of Kooutz and
the other kickers was to fasten attempts
at bribery upon Senator J lay's friends
for the etl'.s-t it would have on the trial
of the tuiy prosecutions, which was
sch eduled to take p!a a few days after
the investigating committee was ap
pointed. The plotters could not fore
see that the District Attorney was not
prepired to try the cas?, and so the in
vestigation has fillei flit for want of
evi lence. The commstte has done its
bst, but the nam?.. of J lay has never
been mentioned before il in connection
with any suady transaction. The per
sons upa whom reflation has been
cist are principally Democrats, and all
of them have denied poiutblank and
under oath any wrong-doing. As a
part of the ompiraey to reflect upon
and ruin Q lay it has only succeeded In
showing the malice and desperation of
his enemies au J their utter iuabil'ty to
uncover a siugle questionable act, on
fie pirt of himself or friends, in con
nection with the McCarrell bill or the
senatorship struggle.
After another week of fruitless bal
loting, the Senatorial deadlock at Har
rishurg remains unchanged. At the
joint convention Monday only 1" votes
were cast, of which Q lay had S, Jenks
4, and Stewart 1. At Tuesday's session
211 Vot ;s were cat, of which Quay had
S-i, leaving him Pi short of an election.
Tne present Legislature bids fair to go
down t posterity as the most worthless
legislative body in the history of the
State. It his already been in session
almost thre mouths, and less than
thirty days remain before it will ad
journ. During the time it has been in
session it has passed just eleven bills
that have gone to the Governor, and
that have cost the State $l!',00J each, or
a total of $210,000. That has (seen the
cost of the session of the Senate and
House up tt Thursday night. Both
bodies liava practically but two work
ing days a week, Wednesday and
Thursday. The senatorial deadlock is
no excuse for members neglectrTig to
perform their regular duties with as
much fi lelity and care as could lie ex
jieet d from them if there were no sen
atorial contest liefore the Legislature.
Many of them seem to think if they
are paired on the senatorial question
they have no other duties to perform,
and absent themselves from the capital
and remain at their homes attending to
their private affairs from two to thres
days out of each week while their pay
goes steadily on. There are important
questions affecting the credit aud pros
perity of the State for the present Leg
islature to consider, and it is grossly
discreditable that tbey have been de
layed until almost three months of the
session are gone.

Kansas Citv, March li The judges
of St. Clair county, who are trying to
keep out of th bands of Federal eourt
ofheers, introduced an innovation yester
day by holding eourt in the brush,
where the marshals oould not find tbem.
Judges Nevitt, Lyons and (Jill, who
served until January, aud who spent the
lime in jii here for refusing to oliey the
Federal court's order to itake a tax levy
to pay a disputed issue of bonds were re
leased when their term of ofliee expired.
CnitedSutes Msrshal Hurhatu went to
i Isceola yesterday in disguise, ttuccnMled
in locating two of the new judges and
nerved the order on them. They had not
yet been sworn in, but lijrha n did iu4
know it. Immediately afterward they
qualified, and then liefore Durham could
again erve lue order they mounted their
horses and rode out of town. They sent
for the oouuty elerk and held court in tbe
brush, where the marshals were una', 1
to loCHte them.
The judges will go to jail for contempt
rather than make tbe levy order!.

The Republicans of Blair County held
their primary election Saturday and their
county convention to declare the result
Monday. For some years the auti-tiuay
people have controlled the county and
had charge of the county organization.
So confident were they of au easy victory
this year, tbey announced Bolter Koonta,
of this county as a candidate for State
Chairman and the three anti-Quay candi
dates for delegates to the State conven
tion. Bunker, Morrow and Walton pub
lished a card in which they said, among
other things:
We further pledge ourselves to support
for Stat Chairman that gsllant reformer,
tieueral W. li. RoouU uf Somerset, w ho
will nerve the whole party instead
ol one man aud who w ill be a party lead
er, not a bona.
Tbe result of Saturday's primary show
that tbe tbree delegates who thus pledged
themselves to support the "gallant re
former" were all defeated and the "gal
lant reformer" himself" although the
ouly candidate on the ticket for State
Chairman was cut about 1,0)0 votes.
A telegram from Altooua says: Blair
oouuty has given a vote of condemnation
to tbe caucus bolters and party wreckers
of the Martin-Flinn Wanamaker crowd.
Tbe bite returns from ths outlying dis
tricts of the result of the Republican pri
mary election show that tbe three dele
gates elected to the Republican Stat con
vention from this county will be in line
with the regular Republican State orga
nization and in accord with the friends of
Senator Wuay at llarrisburg. Tha result
is a complete surprise for tbe Flinn lead
en. Flinn, Koontx, of Somerset, and
others of tbe caucus bolters, have been
up herefrom llarrisburg tnakingspeechea
denouncing Senator Quay and preaching
party treason to the workers. They have
len routed and rebuked by the Repub
liean voters who have gone to the polls,
aud through the Crawford county sys
tem expressed themselves withoutequiv
ocalion. .1. R. Fay, tieorga Irvin and K. M.
Amies, all strong, stalwart Q lay men,
are eletled delegate each by a nice vote.
This result U due entirely to tbe efforts
of the local Republicans, as the State
lenders identified with the regular organi
zation took alisolutely no hand in the
tight. They did not put up candidates
and w hen the nameof T. Larry Kyrewas
used for State chiirmm he telegraphed
that his name must be withdrawn. The
bolters put up Alexander for State Treas
urer, Koontz for State chairman and Stew
art for Supreme Court Jul1. None of
these had an opposing candidate. Many
Stalwarts cut Kooutz's name from tbe
ticket, while others did not bother about
it It was a light for local government of
the Republican organization and the
Quay men won. They have a majority
of tbe County Committee and will elect
tbe County Chairman, who will probably
lie ex Congressman Hicks.
Flinn, Mirun and Company.
From tbe Tblladelphia Inquirer.
There is a caravan of politicians going
around the State mating peecbea about
reform. The speakers have in vaded Lan
caster and Blair counties, aud no one
knows where they will turn up next
Tbey were in Union county the other day
and were so soundly thrashed at the
polls that self respect would seem to in
dicate that they should take to the woods.
But they are still at it
When such men as Senator "Billy
Flinn, of Pittsburg, Representative
Koontz. of Somerse', and our own Bay
ard Henry, with lesser lights in tow,
neglect their duties at flarrisburg as
iniulier. of the Legislature and go upon
the stuuip people naturally inquire what
they are up to. Every one knows that
their principal object is to capture dele
gates to the next State Convention who
w ill be unfriendly to the Republican or
ganization. To secure this end tbey are
attacking Quay and machine rule and
txssism, aud are parading themselves as
the great disciples of reform.
Who are these great reformer? Sena
tor Flinn has never been known because
of bis ardent love for reform. He las
been a Pittsburg politician for some years
until politics has become a business with
him, and be has waxed fat off the juicy
contracts that are to be had in his city,
As for Brother Henry, he is tbe mere
representative of David Martin, who has
been the great boss of Philadelphia for
more than a decade, and under whose
powerful rule the city has been stripped
of its franchises, and typhoid fever 1 as
abounded. Mr. Kooutz, we suppose,
represents the Wanamaker end of the
caravan, that same Wanamaker who, be
ing a stockholder iu the Uuited Gas Im
provement Company, used bis voice and
his influence in behalf of the raid that
that company male upon the citizens of
Philadelphia.
Flinn, Martin and Wanamaker, the
triple alliance, bamboozling the people
with talks upon reform! What a farce it
all is! These men are seeking to rule by
pulling down tbe Republican party and
coming into power upon its ruins. The
hypocrisy of this caravan and its danger
to Republican principles ought to be nn
den-tood by all men. If anything is to
be gained by handing Pennsylvania over
to Biss Flinn and Boss Martin we fail to
understand where it comes in.
Ia Constant Fear.
From the Beaver Time.
The Flinn-Martin-Van Valkenberg
bolters at llarrisburg are in constant
dread that Quay and his regulars will
spring seme dwp, bidden and diabolical
fccbetne on tbem when they are not look
ing for it Weeks ago, they resorted to
the quorum-breaking dodge, for fear
Quay 'a friends would count him in, w hen
they w ere at home attending to their own
private atTairs; and now they are tortured
w lib the fear that the "Little Corpoial"
intends to keep up the deadlock, have
himself made Stale Chairman, then State
Treasurer, and after that capture the next
Legislature, which will make him his
own successor in the IT. S. Senate.
To Exeonte a Woman.
Governor Roosevelt has refused to com
mute the sentence of Mrs. Martha Place,
the Brooklyn murderess, and she will be
electrocuted some day this week at Sing
Sing prison. Iu bis memorandum an
nouncing the decision Governor Roose
velt says: "The woman's guilt has been
clearly established and there are no.cir
cumsiancas whatever to mitigate tbe
crime." The accused, he save, was con
demned as guilty of murder in the first
degree and full and fair trial, alth uh as
all men know a jury in such a cae is al
ways reluct a t to give a verdict against a
woman if any justification w hatsoever
exists for withholding it This verdict
ts subsequently affirmed by tbe court
of appeals, and the Governor therefore
declines to interfere with tbe course of
the law.
Mrs. Place was electrocuted Monday.

HYPOCRISY OP THE "EEFOEHEEs"
8HCWU VP.
The friends of Senator Quay among the
members of the Legislature held a big
rally at llarrisburg last Wednesday night
The principal speech of the evening was
made by ex-Representative B. K. Fooht,
of Union, who told the story of the at
tempt to defeat Captain RdthermerL the
Stalwart Republican candidate for State
Delegates
Mr. Focht said in part : "If anything I
may say shall encourage you to remain
firm in the resolution to hurl back the
party wreckers and defamers, I will feel
well repaid for my owning here, and that
I have done a service to my party and my
State. L'p the winding Susquehanna, and
I believe over the whole Stale, there i
the hope and belief, born of a desire, that
the great Republican party be nt broken
and torn by its malicious assailants, that
yon will succeed, and that speedily. As
the guardians and cost dians of the par
ty's honor and integrity, something better
is expected of you than that you shall
ever strike the party's colors to a minor
ity that is held in the insurgent lines by
deceit and hypocrisy, masquerading as
reform as exemplified by John Wanama
ker, whose brutal hand would strangle to
political death tbe last one of tbem if nec
essary to accomplish his ends of hate and
revenge.
"I roc ret that I can not be among you
when the roll is called, that I might g t on
record for Senator Quay in this content
Yet while I can uot do that I can at least
bear with you In small part the responsi
bility of your action in saving the party
from reproach, and I believe that not
withstanding the prostitution of many
newspapers in permitting themselves to
be muzzled by a full-page advertisement
the people, whn they have an opportu nity
to give full expression at the polls, as tbey
did in Union county last Saturday, will
declare for home rule, and bury tbe par
ty's enemies under an avalanche of votes
and strike terror among them by the
thunder of their condemnation.
- "I am aware that the recital of one's
tale of woe incidental to a political defeat
can be of little individual interest but as
marking tbe degree of desperation and
brutality that impelled John Wanama
ker in his man-bunt and search for re
venge because he could not be elected
United 'Slates Senator, I wish to say a few
words in regard to the manner in which
I was treated after I had voted for this
political adventurer for United States
Senator in 1897. You will agree that you
could not pay any one a higher tribute
than to cast your ballot for him for United
States Senator. This I did ior John Wan
amaker in 1417.
"In the spring of fstli I was nominated
the fourth time by my party for re elec
tion to the Assembly, receiving !30 ma
jority out of a total vote of 2,000. Soon
thereafter Wanamaker started on his party-wrecking
tour, making fusions with
Democrats and Prohibitionists where be
found a Republican candidate for the Leg
islature unwilling to bow his knee and
stand pledged to vote against Senator
Quay. Declining to be tied up in this
manner, a fusion was made with the Dem
ocrats and Prohibition iste of my county,
Wanamaker's agent furnishing tbe mon
ey, and the race was made for my politi
cal scalp. A fierce fight was put up, mon
ey was freely used against ni while
whisky was one of the maiu elements
that inspired those operating in conjunc
tion with Mr. Wanamaker.
"As the crowning act of his ingratitude
and shame he came to my county the day
before election, made speeches against me
and I was defeated by a narrow majority,
a Democrat now occupying the seat in the
House.
"Over in Cumberland county one of tbe
brightest and most popular members who
ever sat in the House, Representative
Maus, was treated in a similar way, al
though he voted for Mr. Wanamaker in
IW7. In Xortbumbeiland and numerous
other counties the party lost members
through tbe treachery of this man who
parades in the a.arb of a Republican aud
as a reformer. I call atteution to these
instances of the last election that you may
know the measure of principle that un
derlies tbe guerilla warfare now being
waged by Wanamaker.
"In the bolting tactics of these insur
gents, they are usurping every party rule,
custom and usage to serve the ends and
aims of John Wansmker. and in their
legislative hold-up and political outlawry
the people's money is being w Fitted. But
they can not continue this aud survive in
politics. They must come back or retire.
I dare say Hon. C. S. Wolfe In his day
possessed more energy, brain force, all
around ability and influence among the
masses of the State than many of the
Philadelphia and Pittsburg bosses com
bined, and yet what was his fate? The
movement he inaugurated defeated Gen
eral Beaver for Governor, but General
Beiver remained steadfast to his princi
ples aud received a splendid vindication.
while Wolfe's career practically closed
when he turned on the party that had
m ide him all he was. A scrap of his
ra mtla would cover tbe nakedness of John
Wanamaker, Kauffman, Flinn, and both
Van Valkenbergs, and yet when he de
serted his party and passed outside the
lines, he entered political oblivion.
"You have heard the answer tbe people
of Uuion county gave boss Flinu, and as
tbe situation more clearly diwns on tha
masses of the rural districts, there will
come from North and South, the East and
West protest agsiast the brigan I tga of
the caucus bolters and the papers carry
ing the big advertisements, before which
regularity must be restored, caucus de
cisions obeyed, and Senator Quay re
elected.
"With all that has been said, it never
thelesH stands as an indisputable fact that
since Senator Quay has been identified
with the leadership ot the Republican
pirty of Pennsylvania, a debt of forty
million dollars, left by the -Democrats,
has been paid, all State taxes removed
from tbe lands, nearly a hundred million
dollar appropriated to our public schools,
the burden of taxation in large part trans
ferred from the people to the corporations,
and millions given to needful charities.
His efforts at Washington saved the in
dustrial interests of Pennsylvania in the
new tar i If schedule, while bis services in
behalf of tbe pensioners of tbe Common
wealth have made him dear to the heart
of every veteran in the Slate. As a Re
publican leader his aim has always been
to achieve Republican succeHS in State
and nation, and thousands of young men
in Pennsylvania turn to him iu grateful
remembrance of his acts of kindness in
aiding them to secure a place in life.
"Se.iator Quay won the majority of
m nubers last fall in the face of Wanama
ker's treachery and fusion with Demo
crat; he won the caucus nomination here
at Harrisbu rg ; be long ago won tbe hearts
of the people, and still retains their affec
tion; be is tbe most persecuted and best
1 ved man In Pennsylvania, and I hope
that every one of you geotlemeu will
honor yourselves and do yonr party tbe
jistlcenf remaining fixed in yonr pur
pose of not only re-electing aod vindica
ting him, but of defending tbe honor and
integrity of your party and in aiding to
perpetuate its glory.'
Tbe remarks of Mr. Focht and of the
other speakers were received with ap
plause, and Chairman Elkin's announce
ment of Quay's soming was greeted w ilb
great cheering.

Upper Marlboro, Md , March 19
f .rv A. Clarke, aired 52. was beaten
to
death, and her sister, Annie Clarke, aged
45. was fatally hurt last night at Bowie,
Md., a village near this place, by John
Berry, a 15 year-negro, who is in jail for
the crime. The deed was a ferocious one,
tbe aged and defenseless women being
surprised by the boy and literally beaten
to a jelly with a club. Annie Clarke
saved herself from instant death by
promising to give the boy $1M aod
pledging herself not to betray him if he
spared her life. A lynching is not iui
p rotable.
Political Votes.
Asa rainbow chaser, "Somerset's old
warrior" seems to be a howling success,
as note tje result of bis speech in Blair
county.
In lt William Jeunings Bryan paid
$135 in taxes. In 1K3 be paid $322. Com
menting upon these facts, Tbe Lawrence
(Kan.) Journal observes that "William
Jennings evidently met up with General
Prosperity during the two years."
dmirals Sampson and Schley are to be
subjected to an examination to determine
the extent of their mental, moral, and
physical capacity to hold their new peti
tions. This seems to be wholly unneces
sary, after all the jolting they have en
dured during the past year.

The three candidates for delegates to

defext last Saturday over in Blair county.
pledged themselves "to support for State
Chairman that gallant relbnner. General
