Pass the free text book bill and give the public school children their books for nothing. It would help the cause of education in this State. At last accounts Mr. Harrity was holding up the Democratic offices in Pennsylvania, with the Democratic Congressional Combine around him begging to be let in nut of the wet. A CRY goes up from the Combine of Pennsylvania Democratic Con gressmen that Messrs. Harrity and Hensel will not control the Pennsyl. vania appointments. If they don't, it is safe to say that nobody else in this State will. The man who does Dot stop in Harrishurg on hid way to Washington to apply for a position simply commits political suicide. To bhow how popular he is, the Republicans of Ohio are going to re nominate William MiKiuley for Governor. Of course this means a Republican Governor in Ohio for another term. There isn't a man who stands a particle of chance against McKinley in a free and fair fight. It is his alleged friends he ha to fear, nil her than his open foes. The woods are full of them up around Meadville. The Tribune says: Afier the applicants from Meadville for places under the uew administration have been cared for, if the places are not all taken, the applicants fionj the balance of the Uuiled Slates will he given a hear ing, but at present it don't look al though there would be many placer left to 11. The tariff reformers iu New York have drafted a bill on free trade lines which will be presented to the uexi Congress. It puts pretty much every thing ou the free list, which is what the Democracy promised to do in their platform. Bui what will Con gresg do f There are so many varied interests to satisfy that there is sure to be a conflict, and after all the bill may fail. If the Democracy are honest, they will urge drastic free trade measures, but nobody ever ac cused that party of h mcsiy. The ltoad Rill May Pass. The bill for the betterment of the roads in this Kjate is now well on its way iu both Houses at Harrisburg aod there are indications that it will pass in some practical shape The bill as it now stands provides for a county supervisor to be elected next November, for a term of 3 years He must have a special know ledge of road-niakiog aod be a sur veyor or civu engineer. Where there is a couuty surveyor he may al to act as supervisor. Hi compensa tion will be fixed by the towuship supervisors who are to be elected iu February. The county and township supervis or are to meet uext March aud de clare what shall he considered as public highways. The payment of employes is t be fixed by the town ship supervisors, and taxpayers are to be given the preference. Revenue is to he provided by a levy of 8 mills on property now subject to taxation, aod a tax of 1 upon each male per eon. A Slate appropriation of S3.O00.OO0 is proposed for the uext two years. TllUEE schemes of Couo; regional apportionment have been uhnnttett to the House Committee. The first groups Venango, Mercer, and Duller together. The second makes a (lis trict titit of Venango, Warren, Mc Kean, Forest, Elk and Jefferson The third lay-out is Crawford, Ve nanjro, Forest, Clarion, and Jefferson Franklin News. Either ot the two last prepositions would strike Forest county about right, though, perhaps, the second would be preferred. But anything lo get out of the hole We're tmw in would satisfy the Republicans of Forest. It is the habit ot the Iruely good people who don't know anything about it In point to the Pennsylvania Legislature with the finger of re proach, nn d refer to it as a corrupt body. They have no proof that I hit is so, but they do these thiugs, and the poor old Pennsylvania Legicluliire is regarded as something awful. 13 u t with all its faults it is not half so bad as the Minnesota Legislature, where two members formed rival syndic-Hits and undertook to do business n strictly cash principles. One yndi cate underbid the the other, and the man who wauled the bill passed ex posed the whole matter. An invvsti- gatiou has been called for, aud some body is going to have a great deal of trouble of assorted kinds on baud. Hairisburg Telegraph. The legislators who are having so much to say about a road law fot the improvement of the roads iu this Siaie should do more and talk less It is a fact, as declared by Mr. Wal- tou in debate, in the House, that the roads of Pennsylvania are a disgrace to the age in which we live. The newspapers in the Slate have time and time again called the attention to this sad condition of affairs, and have done their duty so faithfully that the entire people are aroused on the subject and demand that some thing be done. Governors of the Stale for years back have incorpor ated in their messages references to the bad couditiou of our mads, but it doe not aeem as if the Legislature will take the hint. Give us some thing practical and not so much talk. Harrisburg Telegraph. Col Elliot Fitch Shepard, edi tor of the Mail and Express, died suddenly at hi home, in New York n the 24th inet. His death followed the administration of ether by Dr Charles McBorney, and the family physician, Dr. J. W. MiLane, who were about to make au examination to ascertain whether the Colouel's suspicion that he suffered from stone in the bladder was correct. Col Shepard was born in Jamestown. Chautauqua couuty, N. Y., July 25. 1833. He was educaced at the Uui- versiiy of the City of New Yolk, ad mitted to the bar iu 1858 aud for many years practiced iu New York city. In 1801 and 1862 he was aide le-camp ou the staff of Govermi Edwin D. Morgan, was iu command o, the depot of volunteers ai Elmira, N. Y., and aided in organizing, equipping and forwarding to the field nearly 50 000 troops. He was instru mental iu raising the F.fiy-first New York regiment, which was named for him, the Shepard rfle. He became the owner of the Mail and Express in 1888. Col Shepard was a princely givr to tuuny a worthy cbusb. Wheu the mailer of the great disasters at Oil City and Tuusville last Juue was pre sented to the Republican National Convention, then iu session at Minne apolis, it was he who made the mo tion that the secretary of the coven tiou be made treasurer of the relief fund, and then accompanied his mo tion with a subscription of 500, the first ou the list. Jumping ou Mr. Ilifby. A Harrishurg dispatch to the Pittsburg Times gives this interesting information : Mr. i ighy and his little bill for the expenses of bis contest wi.h Mr Andrews is a topic of unfailing in terest, aud thu Democrats are jump ing ou the geuileiuan from Crawford wiib both feet Mr. Metzgar, of Potter, who introduced the bill, says he never read it, and disavows all re sponsibility, saying that the Dt tuo crats should go before the Appropri ations Committee aud ak that it he cut down one-half Cliairmau Talbot says that not more than 15 witnesses were examined by the commit tee, and hat $125 would be ample for this ex peiise although Mr. IPghy'a bill asks tor cool A very prominent Demo cat said today that Higby'a out rageous action had lost the Demo, crats all the advantage I lie v had gained by the seating of Andrews, both in the r.tate and Crawford coun ty, and that liad the Democrats kouwu what lligby was going to do, they would have raised n purse, of $1,000 to slop it. The truth is, however, flint a great many Democrats are secrttcly re joiced at Mr. lligby 's downfall. He was a Populist rninliiltite, indorsed by the Democrats, while the latter were quile willing to reap all the benefit possible to their party, from his arbitrary unsealing, they did not care to see him made too prominent, As a fusion assemblyman he would do, bill whet, it c me to making him 'he Democratic candidate for Stale Treasurer, tho dose was loo slrorg. So when they see ibis professed tax payers guardia n making a grab at ihe Slate Treasury and this anti corporal ionist not only riding on pases. but afterward putting in n bill lor 8800 for railroad tare, they are inwardly rtj-dced and outwardly shocked.
