The spring elections of 1899 put silver in the scattering celumn. Thk Domooratic party is doing its best to make the re-election of President Mc Kinley a loregon conclusion. Thk Nebraska idea of expansion is te be found in the gallant work of the Ne braska regiment at Manila rather than in the speeches of Bryan. McKisson, the defeated Cleveland can didate for Mayor, rau 12,0(10 behind the rest of the ticket. It is thus Republicans tender their compliments ts a turncoat. What the country should see to is.that the policy inaugurated by the Dingley bill is continued, and then we may be juslly sure our prosperity will bo last ing. The first desire ef the average Porto Rican is to be annexed and his second to get into the Republican party. In repu tation for natural intelligence the people of the island are going up fast. The remaining regiments of volunteers are returning rapidly to civil life. Soon the host ef 1808 will have been mustered out, but its achievements are marked broadly upon the history of the times. CarlSchvrz has been making another pessimistic speech against expansion. It is unnecessary to say more of Mr.Schnrz's judgment than that he ranks Cleveland with the great statesmen of the country Many of the free traders say that the Dingley law has been injurions to the country because it destroyed the. import ing interest. The people have, however, abandoned the idea that importers are of more importance than manufacturers and farmers. According to tho apportionment of census districts recontly made public by Director Merriam, of the Census Bureau, the country will bo divided into 300 dis tricts each to be in charge of a supervisor. Jeflorson county has been placed in a dis trict with Clarion, Forest, Elk, McKean and Warren connt'es, and will be known as the Fourteenth distr.ct. As theso coun ties, with the exception of Jefferson are represented in Congress by J. K. P. Hall and Joseph Sibley, Democrats, the ap pointments, according to the arrange ment in such cases, will be left to Senator Penrose. Indiana, Armstrong and West moreland counties will constitute the Sixteenth district, and will be under the jurisdiction of Congressman Jack. Ptnury. Spirit. The Newspapers on Dr. Towler's 'Sweat Shop" Speech. The speech of the aession was deliv ered by Forest county's Representative in the House at Uarrisburg last Tuesday on the final passage of a bill to regulate sweat-shops. Dr. Towler was highly complimented by all the newspapers en bis impassioned appeal for the passage ot the bill, and as a compliment more elo quent than words, there was not a die eenting vote against, but 172 for the bill We take the liberty to give a few of the press comments : " 'I wish we could reach thecold, heart less men who are responsible for this awful condition of things until their very souls would shrink within them in tear of that day when for deeds done in the body they shall stand face to face with God. " "Loud applause greeted the earnest per erationofa speech made by Represen tative Towler in the House to-day alter be had exposed the evils of the sweat shop system in this State. The bill un der consideration was ene prepared by the Factory Inspectors' Department, and was an amendment to the anti-sweatshop act of 1897. t gives the factory inspect ore the right to confiscate goods made i places where unsanitary conditions and uncleanlioess exist, and is aimed at tli tenement sweatshops in Philadelphia, "Mr. Towler was the only one to speak on the bill, and be charged that the hor rible conditions that exist where clothing is made in Philadelphia are directly traceable to the men who get the con tracts for clothing and then sublet them to the poor at priees that are olmostin credible. Suddenly in the midst of hi speech he drew from his desk a pair of men s trousers. " 'The retail price of this pair of trous ers, be said, 'is J3.50. The man who made them got 20 conts. One man can make three pairs a day. Here,' and i- -1 , . t neiu up anoiuer garment, 'is a summer coat which retails at 50 cents. The cost of manufacturing was 50 cents a dozen, cr 4 1-fl cents apiece. Cost of material, 12 cents; thread and buttons, 3 cents; net profit to the dealpr, 30 cents. A man and woman working 12 hours per day can earn 7.) cents.' 'ATnf Here is a woman's shirtwaist.' be said, holding up the pretty conceit i linen. 'The cost of manufacturing tli shirt waist made by an American woman mind you, was 5 tents. It sells at retail at $1. And now for my last Illustration Here he held tip pair of boys' knee pants. " 'For finishing one dozcu pairsof these knee pants, sewing on ISO buttons and doing the hemming, the workman er wo man who dees the work, gets 4 eents per dozen. The cost of labor and material is 16 cent. The retail price of the pants is 40 cents.' "Tho House passed the bill unanimous ly, 172 yeas to 0 nays." Phila. Press. "Representative Towler of Forest to day made the most effective speech ef the session and held the members spellbound while be appealed tor the pa!ige of the bill against the sweat-bhops, every mem- can. Wheu he tniiM.nl un mem.,..! broke out into applauso and the bill pkssed unanimously." Pittsburg Cbm. Guzettc. "A dramatic and unusually impressive speech, which tho Uouse heartily ap plauded, won 172 votes, with no oppo sition, tor the final passage of the bill. Dr. Towler of Forest was tho speaker." Philla. Record and Pgh. lst. "One ot the most eloquent and effective speeches made in the Uouse this session was delivered by Representbtlve S. S. Towler of Forest to-day, in advocating the pawageot the bill against sweat-shops. Wheu he finished the members broke out and applauded and the bill was passed without a dissenting vote." Philadel phia Inquirer. "A death blow to sweat shops. Phila. Ledger. "Dr. Towler, iu the course of his argu ment, dealt a blow to the men whosecure the contracts and then nublet them to the toilers at prices that ought to make them blush with shame. The last exhibit of Dr. Towler was" a pair of boys" knee pants, and ha made the astonishing state ment, that for finishing a dozen pairs ot these pants, the wage errner was paid just four conts. Can you grasp that ideat It is gratifying to know that the bill Dr. Towler was advocating so elo quently passed the House unanimously." Ifarrisburg Telegraph. School Reports.
