JunoK Harry White of Indiana coun ty is being urged by friends in bis sec tion for tho nomination for Supreme Judge, by the ensuing Republican State Convention, which meets in Harrisburg, August 24th. Pennsylvania points with satisfaction to its silk industry whose production is over 132,000,000, an increase of 33 per cont. since 1805. It is one of many forms of manufacture in the United States of which little is heard, but which are growing rapidly. St, Louis Globe Demo erat. Pkof. J. L. Allison, of Punxsutaw ney, Jefferson county has been appoint ed Census Supervisor for this district the 1-tth, comprising Warren, Clarion, Elk, Forest, McKean and Jefferson cotiu- lies. W. B.

Tuk Democratic idea now that the re moval of a protective tariff would de slroy the trusts is just as stable as the Democratic cry in 1896 that "silver and wheat must always go bund iu hind.' Democratic theories have met some bard reverses the past few years, but after the wholesome lesson given to all the people of this country under the Wilson bill it seems strange that the protective tariff should be again assailed. Congressman James A.awney of Minnesota, who was in Chicago last week, was asked If the Deuiocratio party would not possess the strategic and sen timental advantage, provided both it and the Republican party put strong anti trust planks into their national plaforms in 1000. "No," said he. "Of course it is cow commonly said that the formation of trusts is liveliest when Republican ad ministration is In power. But no man, when he begins to think can ascribe the formation of trusts to the favoring smiles of a federal administration. Trusts are not formed at Washington ; they are in corporated under State laws aud oxist by State pormUsion. They get their chartor or right to livo from Now Jersey or West Virginia or Delaware. The first two are Democratic States, possessing statutes passed by Democratic legislatures, which invite the trusts to form undor the a-gis of Democratio protection. Dolaware is generally Democratic, and her present legislature is not Republican enough to elect a Republican Senator. Trusts nat urally thrive undor prosperity, like everything else; but, the Republican party, which is responsible for prosper ity, is not therefore responsible for the formation of trusts. It is the States that are responsible." Mr. Tawney, who has given study to the matter of trusts, suggested possible remedy. He Mid : "The fedoral power is probably barred by constitutional lim itation from dealing with the trusts. Tlr ndividual States who are mothers of trusts must exert the authority to discip line their offspring. Let the States, such as we have here in the central west- States lying together and. composing gigantic market lot them pass uniform laws in restraint of trusts. Let each of them declare that auy domestic corpora tion seeking combinations in restraint of trade or for the purpose of putting up prices or limiting competition, or any of the usual things common to trusts, shall forfeit its charter. That would kill trusts built out of domestic corporations. Let each Stat in addition prohibit any for eign corpoiation that is any corporation ot any sistor State which has the nature of a trustor monopoly from acquiring a status within her borders. Of course no State can interfere with interstate com merce or prohibit the salo of goods brought within her borders, under the original pack ago decision of the Federal Supreme Court. But if a trust could not acquire a status in a State it could not open an office or have a distributing point in that State. It could only enter such a Stale by selling t rough travelers and importing its wares or commodities in original packages. "Were ten great States to pass such uniform laws the giant corporations would find their mouopoly broken. Ten great States compose a market no trust could afford to disregard, and to do bus! ness in that market a trust would be compelled to disabuse itself ot trust characteristics." The W. N. Y. A P.

Otis cables the government from Manila that tho "only hope for the insur gent leaders is in United States aid. They proclaim the near overthrow of the pres- ent administration, to be followed by their independence and recognition by the United States. This is the influence which enables them to hold out." The situation is the same now as in the civil war. One of the serious embarrassments of the government is the influence of the copperheads at home. It Is useless to denv that the policy of protection to American labor and indus try is more or less responsible for the ex isting deadlock on the wage question be tween the tin plate manufacturers and their employees. Had there been no protective tariff on tin plate there would certainly be no labor trouble in that in dustry ut the present time, and for the best of all reasons : There would uow be no tin plate industry in this country, and tho question of wages could not possibly have come up. It will be remembered that prior to the enactment of the Mc- Kinloy law there were no tin plate wills and hence no labor troubles. The sensations of the week in matters political were the interviews of Represen tatives Ward R. Bliss, of Delaware coun ty, and William W. McElhaney, of Alle gheny, in which both declared their be lief that upon a re-convening of the leg islature that body would re-elect Senator Quay, and that in deference to the wishes of their constituents they would vote lor lum. Since both those gentlemen were among the leading anti-Quay members of the last House these declarations are quite significant, and would tend to show that they had "heard from their people" as the saying is. They both claim to have found that the sentiment among tho people has undergone a wonderful change since the legislature adjourned and they, like many others, have not been slow to observe the hand writing on the wall. But there will be no extra session. These people had three months in which to make up their minds to vote for Senator Quay, the regular nominee, and didn't do it. There's a whole lot oi them will never have the opportunity again to voto for him or any other candi Uato lor U. 8. Senator. A Fatal Democratic Ally. It was the misfoitune of the Democrats In our civil war to have the earnest sym pathy of the Southern insurgents who sought to dismember the republic, and that fatal ally deprived them of power in this State and nation for a quarter of a century. They had accidental victories in Pennsylvani . by ihe Republicans defeat ing themselves, but the day that rebellion threatened the destruction of the Union dated the overthrow of Demo cratic supremacy. Since then a Democratic President has been twice elected, but he was sue cessful solely because he was regarded as vastly more acceptable than his party, and Democratic victory was won by Re publican votes. From the time that Dem ocracy merited and accepted the sympn thy of those who sought to overthrow the republic neither Pennsylvania nor the Union has ever been Democratic on a square party vote. Just when the Democrats have seen the last vestige of sectional prejudice perish by the soldiers of the blue and the grey fighting side by side in the war with Spain, they are turning to invite the sym pathyofan equally fatal ally aud one that may doom them to disaster for years to como. Tho strongest inspiration Aguinaldo's address urging his people to maintain tho war against the United States, is his public boast that tho Demo crats of the nation are in sympathy with them and their cause. That he has been encouraged to con Untie the war and enthuse his followers with the hope of success by Democratic opposition to national expansion and to the war with t e Filipinos cannot be doubted, and the patriotic people of the country will keenly appreciate the atti tude in which Democratic leaders have placed their party before the nation. No political party can maintain itself in this country by opposing the poisecu- Hon of a war that is already upon us. The patriotic sentiment that strengthens our brave soldiers in the field iu their heroism to maintain the flag will have more respect for the barbarous Tagals than for those who maintain a cowardly fire in the rear to strengthen the enemy and multiply the sacrifice of brave sol diers. If the Democrats would hope to make a successful battle in 1900 they must take prompt measures to prevent Aguinaldo from pleading their cauce be' fore his murderous barbarians in the Philippines.

We are simply iroing through a cra.e like the one we bad when spider bites were popular. Everybody who was bitten by any kind of an insect was bitten by a spider. The same is true now. A kissing bug feeds on caterpillars and oilier insects, and may thus sometimes convey poison, but the iu.sect is ir more numerous or dangerous now than it ever was." On tho 4 lb of July Chill W.
