THE FOREST REPUBLICAN. . WINK, ito t Psoesicroa. WEDNESDAY, JANUARY a imi. STATE CAPIT G0SSIP. ir.. " Tb '""BURa, Jan. 23, 1891. liarr " -Prtol eveoU of the week r3 been, the inauguration of the y jOTeroor, the election of U. 8. Sena tor, and the announcement of the Standing Committee! of the House ibe Senate Committee! not yet being made public. On Tuesday, 20th, at noon, Gorern or Beaver and staff, and Gov. elect Tattiion drove op to the Capitol, eg corted by 'the 8tb Reg., N. G. P, jtout. iu. t auiaon, citisen, stood up beside James A. heaver, Governor, Chief Juiiict Paxson, standing to the aide, administered the oath. Ropt. E. Pattlson bowed his head and kissed the red bible; caooon rolled and thundered, and it was Governor Pat tison and citizen Beaver inside of ton minutes. Democrats cheered and gave and received congratulations; Repub "Keens laughed, and said "just wait while," Prohibitionists "smiled," no one growled, and every one realited in this peaceful change that we lived in a great country and a graod old com monwealth. At 3 P. M. the Senate and House met in their respective chambers, and balloted for U. S. Senator. In the Senate J. D. Cameron had all the Re publican votes, and Chaoncey F. Black all the Democrats. In Ibe House, Cameron had 113, Black 77, Austin L. Taggart 7, Dr. Flood 3, Harry White 1. Practically there was oo opposition to Senator Career , on's re election not a prominent Re publican was mentioned for the place, if we except General White, and in that case, the member voting would , not vote for either of the others, and ao struck out on a candidate of bis own making. Mr. Tafrgart never had any show, and after Cameron became the caucus nominee, was only coosid. ored in the light of a "bolter." Not a Democralio granger would give him a vote, so it was useless for Republican grangers to put themselves in bad shape for legislation, by going it alone; yet it must be said that Mr. Taggarl is an honorable and upright, though a mistaken man. At 12, noon, Wednesday, business was suspended io the House, the Ser- I geaot at Arms appeared in the gang way, and announced Vthe Lieut. Gov ernor and the Senate." Three raps of Speaker's gavel brought the mem bera of the House to their feet. The Lieut. Governor and Senators marched in, the Speaker vacated the Chair to the Lieut. Governor, who seated the House with one rap. The journals of the two bodies were read, aud it was found that James Donald Cameron hS received 144 voles, Chauneey F. Black 95. So Cameron was declared U. S. Senator elect for ensuing term The Lieut. Governor stepped down, Speaker Thompson called op the mem bers, the Sergeant at-Arma, with the silver beaded mace, marched out, the Lieut. Governor aud Senators followed, and that event was a thing of the past. These particulars are very familiar to many of your readers, but the details are given for (tie beneEt of the young readers who like to know bow these ' "",0'p? tate place and the ceremony wiTu connected. . ar tD9 Standing Committees are concerned, the only thing at this time that will interest the general reader is, that Speaker Thompson's selections are considered good and a credit to himself and the House. The member for Forest is on Legislative Apportionment, Education, Counties and Townships, Public Health and Sanitation, and Library, being Secre lary of the third named. It's to be - hoped tbat no one will lose any sleep for fear that the Secretary of tbat Committee is going to "bust" the Con stitution and lift the Court House on , his pencil to to "Wnig Hill." It would be useless to meutioo the titles of the 210 bills read in place the last two days in the House. They are for all sorts of purposes and objects, from "providing for a lien on tomb" stones," to tearing up all the liquor restrains; from appropriating $1000 to $100,000 dollars. Many of them will never see the electrio lights in the House again, but will be coolly and calmly buried in committee. Those Kill that effect Forest county will be, to as out of committee and print obtained fiom your Representative, sent you for publication. Horrible Mine Disaster. ottiule, Pa., Jan. 27. By ao .piosioo of fire damp iu the Mam haft of the II. C. Frick Coke Cow any, to day, 80 sturdy iniuera were ibered into eternity aud a number Tiouly injured. The explosion oc urred this morniog shortly after 9 'clock, and it is supposed was the re ill of the ignition of a miner's oil hep. Tbs after damp which followed the Gre damp explosion, suffocated nearly every workman. A few men realising the awful situation, fell to the ground, thereby preventing the gas from striking them. There is not a soul left to tell the story of tb dreadful calamity, the persons no killed are in such a critical conditinu tbat their deaths are momentarily ex peo ed. Up to this wrfting, 60 bodies have been recovered, all without the sign of life. Tbe fire which broke nut after th explosion was soon extinguished by the immense fans which were nut in operation. The gas has about all been driven fro.u the pit, and (he work of rescuing the entombed miners has becu commenced. General Manager Lynch of the Frick Coke Company, h on tbe scene, helping to ?evie means to res cue the perished workmen. His as sistsoce is invaluable, as he has had muny years experience in mining operations. ine Mammoth mine is located on a spur of the Sewickley branch of the Southwest Pennsylvania Railroad. It is 10 milts from a telegraph office, and correcpoodeiiti were forced to secure a special engine from Mammoth to Youugwood, where two special tele graph operators were awaiting orders. Tbe story is easily told. Ao unex pected flow of gas was struck snd tbe miners working io the headings con necled with flats Nos. two, three and four were all killed Dead bodies were brought op every few minutes and tbe crowd at the shaft mouth simply fell back to allow the men carry iug the stretchers room to pass. Every corpse was covered and no one even ventured to inquire whose body it was, for (bey knew every one in that part of the mine at the time rf the explosion was dead. Sopt. Keigh ly wri a sorely distressed man. He Slid: "No man living knows the caue of (he accident, and it Will never be known for a certainty." The editors of the big free trade newspapers, .f which the New York Herald is the most prominent, should try to make their editorial and news columns come nearer together, if they wish to make any converts. Tbe other day the Htrald printed a half column editorial about tbe McKiuley tariff law having shut us nut from the products of the world, and right on the next page was a news item refer ring to the Spriug trade among New York merchants, which stated that tbe importations were much larger than ever before aud that business was booming. It is nonsense for any paper to misrepresent the new tarifT law. If by tbe time the Presidential tlectiou rolls around the law shall have proved itself bad the Republican party will have to shoulder the blame, just as it expects to be credited with tbe bene fits of the law. In the United Slates Senate Monday tbe Eelectiuns Bill was practically shelved by the adoptiou of a resolution to take up the apportionment bill Tbe vote of Senator Cameron w. s with the Democratic side, and as the resolution passed by barely one of a majority, that vote becomes tbe more important and significant. It is need less to say that the senior Senator's action has been a bitter disappoint men I to bis old friends and supporters. There is a disposition on the part of the Democratic press to criticUe Senator Ingall because, iu his recent speech io the Senate, be said : "If ray political enemy smites me on the cheek, I would smite him uoder the butt end of his left ear." Tbe charge is made that tbe language is inelegant. Well, it may be,but no one can fail to uoderslaud its meaning or to com prebeod the American spirit of "get there" which pervades it. If the day ever arrives when Cou greBS shall refuse to legislate iu favor of honest elections for fear of inter fering with or iujuring somebody's comoiercial interests it will be high time to be looking arou'.id for a strong man to muke an Emperor out of. No popular government can long survive dishonest elections. Mr Cleveland writes letters with out end aud makes speeches as often as be gets an opportunity, but nobody has beard biru say a word about free coinage. Is the gentleman afraid of this subject? ss g The people will remember (hat it is (be Democrats who are trying to make an extra session of Congress ueceesaty sai Tbe Republic an and the Pbila. delphia Weekly Prets, the largest and best weekly in tbe Slate, for only 1 75.
