Get Registered Members of the Republican County Committee shoulil see to it that all Re publicans in their respective districts are reentered on or before Sept. 7th. In the matter of voters who voted on ape last year it is especially im-oitant that they be registered and assessed or they cannot vote. Don't neglect this important mat ter. The President's speeches leave no doubt as to his belief that we have taken tbe Philippines to keep them, Evkby Republican should see to it that his name is on tho registry books on or before Sept. 7th. That's to-morrow. Bryan thinks the government should regulate tho trusts with a license system. This implies that trusts are all right, but not run properly. The position remains to be proved. Skcrktaky Root hopes that all the twenty new regiments will eat their Christmas dinner in the Philippines. It is only a question of ships. Tbe men will be ready. No osk suppood when wo bought Alaska Hint any section of the territory would be good for sheep ranches. But recent reports to the Agricultural De partment are especially interesting to wool growers. Phack first, then, with charity for all, a government of law aud order under the stars and stripes." These aro the Presi dent's words on the future of the Phllip pines,and nine-tenths of Lis countrymen agree with him. When the Democrats begin their pro posed Investigation of the trusts of the country, will they demand information as to the amount which the silver trust lias paid in behalf of Mr. Bryan during the last four years T Gkn. Merritt remarks that if inde pendence were granted the Fillipinos "anarchy would as certainly follow such a step as the day follows the night." A native republic at this time is a foolish dream of visionaries. A iostal card voting test conducted by the Now England Farmer gives a strong majority against the proposition : "Should the United States withdraw from the Philippines?" The spirit of surrender is bard to And when it comes to an actual count. Exiorts of manufacturers have reach ed a millisn dollars a day under the be nificent iufluence of the Dinglcy protect ive tariff law, having been 5211,975,904 in the first seven months of the present year, while in the corresponding months of the first year of the Wilson law they were 1110,289,94(1, or about half a million dollars a day. The Democrats of Ohio have nomina ted John R. McKean for Goveanor. This gentleman has been after something ol the kind for years back, and it finally comes to.him at a time when there is no more chance of his election than there is of Aguinaldo winning out in the Philip pines. Bryan and all isms ol the Chicago platform ol '96 are endorsed in the plat form. "They did not stack arms; they did not run away ; they were not serving the insurgents in the Philippines ndr their sympathizers at home. They had no part nor patience with the men, few in number, happily, who would have re juiced to have seen them lay down their arms in the presence of an enemy whom they bad just emancipated from the Span ish rule and who should have been oni foremost friends. They furnished an examplo of devotion and sacrifice which will brighten the glorious record of American valor." President McKlnley ou American-soldiers in the Philippines, Pittsburg, August 28, 1899. The distress of the fault-finders over the alleged shortage of revenue and their assertion that there will probably be need for another public loan to carry on the war will be materially modified by the discovery that the receips of Govern me lit in the first 2!) days of August were $3,000,000 in excess of expenditures and that during the first two months of the fis cal year tbe receipts were only about $5, 000,000 less than expenditures in spite of the fact that July expenditures are above the average. It is quite apparent that the receipts are now averaging more than the expenditures, and thnt the deficit, so much desired by the opponents of the administration, is not likely to !..aterial ize during tho present fiscal year. "Peace brought us the Philippines by treatyc cssion. The Senate of the United Stales ratilied the treaty. Every step taken was in obedience to the require- ments of the Constitution. It became our territory, atyl is ours as much as 'he Juitana purchase, 'lexas or Alaska. A body of insurgents, in no sense repre senting the sentiments of the people of the Islands, disputed our lawful author ity, and even before the ratification of the treaty by the A merican Senate, were at tacking the very forces who fought for and secured their freedom. Our humanity was interpreted as weekness; our forbearance as cowardice. They as sailed our sovereignty and there will be no use'.ess parley, no pause until the in surrection is surpressed and American authority fccknowledgeJ and established. Tho misguided followers in rebellion the cruel leaders who have needlessly sacrificed the lives of thousands of their people at the cost of some of tbe best blood for the gratification of their own ambiiious designs, I will leave to others the ungracious task of justification and eulogy." President McKinley on Amer ican Soldiers In the Philippine, Pitts burg, August 28, 1890. The Atchison Globe has a habit of put ting things in a sensible way. Tbis is one of its latest: "It Is as frivolous to talk politics n hen there is such a big corn crop to discuss as it would be to make love in church. Talk corn, aud if you can't talk corn, say nothing. Talk ing corn is talking Kansas, and every man has reason to talk to the girl with the 300,000,000-bushel corn crop in her arms." The United Stales Secret Service offi cers at Washington have discovered new counterfeit two-dollar treasury note of tbe series ot 1891, check letter "D," Bruce register, Roberts treasuier and McPherson portrait. It is fairly decept ive, photo-etched production and the silk fibre distributed through the genu ine paper has been closely imitated. Tbe seal is dark instead of pink and tbe par allel ruling poor, as is most of tbe lathe work. There is an act in force in Westorn Australia prohibitiug the landiug of any one who cannot write out a given passage in English. That act closes the doors of Australia against a large aud hard-work ing contingent of reporters and editors iu this part of the United States. In this country we are far more liberal, even to tbe point of admitting foreigners to citi zenship. We recall that in a naturaliza tion court Judge Olmstead, of this State, asked a foreign applicant, "Who makos the laws?" and tho fellow answered, "William McKinley." To another seek er after the right to vote he put the ques tion ; "What does the President Lave to do with the bills sent to him by Con gress?" After studying the matter over for a moment tbe man replied : "Pay them like any other honest man." Both applicants received the papers that quali fied them to pass upon all national issues in America. Venango Spectator. The Philadelphia Ledger, which has been opposed to Senator Quay's re-election praises in unstinted terms the ticket named by the Republican State Conven tion, and in speaking of tho nomination of the gallant Lieut-Colonel Baruett for State Treasurer says : "Lieutenant-Colonel Barnett has proved himself a patriotic citizen and a gallant soldier, and before the opportu nity to do so was afforded him he simi larly proved himself to be a man of ex cellent repute, who was and is well es teemed by the neighbors among whom he lived. He has the ability to administer tue affairs of the Treasury in such a manner as to achieve the best re sults to the advautages of the Common wealth. The probability is that in the Treasury as he has been ont of it, he will continue a stalwart politician and partisan, although his personal character is above reproach and his competency unquestioned." Tu e close observer of oleaginous events must have noted that the two-barrel well is no longer the poor, despised thing of a few years ago. The time was when it was looked upon as little if any better than a dry hole, but now all this has changed, and the search for tbe well of only two or three barrels capacity is as eager as was the hunt for those of as many hundred barrels' producing ability in the earlier days of the business. Even the largest companies no longer turn away from tbe territory of this class. They evidently need the oil in their bus- uess. As a result of this state of affairs scores of wells are now being drilled in territory which not so very long ago was looked upon as worthless for oil pur poses, and as there is an abundauce of it in this vicinity, its further developement tends to increase the business activity iu this section. This all goes to advance the material inierests of Oil City. It would not be at all surprising if some of these seekers for small welts in Venango County should stumble upon a rich pool, in which much larger ones were obtain able. And then there would be a circus, But in any event the revival in produc ing operations in this latitude helps busi ness wonderfully. You can't keep a good town down. Blizzard. A Volume of Tariff Argument. When the disastrous Gormun-Wilson tariff was enacted, in 1894, one ol tbe claims which its sponsors set up in its behalf was that its reduced duties would "Improve the quality" of tbe clothing of the A merican people. As a matter of fact, as the trade statistics show, it bad exactly the opposite effect. Instead of improving the clothing of the people, it degraded it by admitting great quantities of cheap and worthless foreign fabrics which high duties bad kept out, and by driving American manufacturers to the use of flimsy substitutes for the fleece of the sheep that were sacrificed. A twenty-fold multiplication of our imports of foreign shoddy was one of tho first tan gible consequences of "tariff reform"- and the Gorman-Wilson law rigbtfnlly goes down to history as tho "shoddy tar iff." But it is significant that the re-es tablishment of protection in the Dingley law has put a quick stop to these huge purchases of foreign shoddy. In 1897,the last year of Gorman-Wllsooisin, our ini ports of foreign shoddy, rags, etc., ere 49,913,732 pounds. In 1898 our purchases of these articles foil to 3,298,751 bounds, and in 1899 they full to the mere nominal mount of 311,540 pounds. There is a whole volume of tariff argument in these simple figures. Boston Journal. NOTICE.
