THE FOREST REPUBLICAN. J. C. WINK. Editor Proprietor. WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 7. 1900 Nosk of the military prophet saw the present plight of the BritUh unless it was Oom Paul. lie promised to "stagger hu manity" aud has kept bis word. New York exportors say the Trans vaal laid on twice as much Hour as usual last year aud enormous stores of jerked beef, cereals and canned meats. The world is ready to believe that Boer prep aration was thorough in all respects. Japan pot only favois the open door, but has decided to exempt Christian churches from taxation. The people of that country have been apt pupils during the comparatively few years that have passed since they were a hermit nation. The fifb annual Convention of the Pennsylvania State Association of School Directors will be held in the ball of the Uouse of'Representatives at Harrisburg, Feb. Hth and 15th, IfOO. Addresses will be delivered by Dr. X. C. SchaetTer, Dr. Henry Houck, Gov. Win. A. Stone and many directors and superintendents from all parts of the Slate. Tuk steamer Lucauia, which sailed Irom New York on the 10th of Dec car ried the heaviest list of postal money or ders payable in foreign coi nlries ever sent out of the United States. They ag gregated about ?2,500,000, and r- present only one week's orders, but that week the heaviest of the year. The money was practically all from the servant aud la boring ciass of foreign birth who were sending Christmas gifts to their families and relatives at home. Therk is every indication that the Re publicans of ihe Venango-Warren-Mc-Kean district will nominate Congress men Sibley as their candidate this year, a largely signed call from Iraln township, Venango county, having brought from Mr. Sibley a letter of willingness to be come their candidate. Mr. Sibley has strongly supported the administration during hh brief stay in Congress, and believes it to be the duty of every voter, who prefers the welfare of all classes of citizenship to mere partisan success, to do likewise. In other words Mr. Sibley has returned to his first love, where he must surely feel greater comfort. Lkyps, the Transvaal representa tive in Europe, is undoubtedly coriect in bis assertion that neither England nor bis own country Is yet ready to ask for me diation. The war will continue until one or the other of the combatants is beaten much worse than England ha' been thus far. It Is unfortunate for the world that this conflict cannot be stopped now. It was unfortunate that the war ever began Mediation, however, with the beligerents in their present mood, would be an im peitinence. From the present indica tions the struggle is s'lll far from being near its end. The United States regrets the fact, but can do nothing to change it. Thk death of Mrs. Annie Wittenmeyer, at her home, Sanatoga, Pa., on th 2d Inst., conies as a shock to a very large 6. rule of admirers not only in Pennaylva- nia, but in almost every portion of the Union. Few women were better known in philanthropbic circles than Mrs. Wit tinmeyer, almost her whole life being spent in that line. She entered the hos pilal servl- e of tho Union army in April, 1861, and served until November, 25, 18C5, ministering tolhedyingand wound ed on many battlefields. It was she who Inaugurated the movement for the sol diers' home at Davenport, la., and she was prominent in establishing the Penn sylvania Soldiers' Memorial home, of the board of management of which she was many years president. Sue seived as national president of the Woman's Relief Corps of Ohio the Woman's Relief Corps of the Grand Army of the Republio and chiefly through her efforts the national home founded by this organization was secured. For five years she was presi dent of the National W. C. T. U. and was one of the most active mnmbers of that body. Mrs. Wittenmeyer was well known to tho ladles of Tionesta where the has addresst-d meetings in the cause ol temperance. Anent Dr. Ililllt on the War. Boer-British The Rev. Newell D.vight Hillis, D. D. pastor of Plymouth Church (Beecher's) is an ardent British sympathiser in the present conflict, and this is his line of ar gument by which he reaches this post tion : "In order to determine where the syra patny or enlightened Christrin men should go Dr. llillis finds himself asking questions like these: The victory of which side would mean most for the lumie and dnmstic institutions ? Which nation cares most for the school house and the college? Which would do niOMt to stieniilhen the newspsper, the maga zine and the book? Which cures most to liuhtcn the burdens ot the common peo pie, l. as the highest ideal for labor and will do most to advance civiliz .tion? Dr. Hillis has evidently forgotten there is such a thing as justice and individual rights in human society, and argues along the line of the Iniquitous dot-trine that "the end lustifies the means." I have several neighbors. One of them has heaps of money but he keeps it stored away. He will not use it for his own comfort nor allow it to enter th channel of legitimate circnlation. lie is a miser. But this gold belongs to the world and the world has a right to it. What is to be done? Dr. Hillis, myself, and a few other like broad-mldded, phil anthropic men, sweep down upon him, take it away and give it to the world (af ter it has first passed through our pock ets). This is commercial enterprise and progress. I have another neighbor who owns a farm on which is a large coal vein which be refuses to open. This must not he. lie says be owns it, has paid lor it, and there are plenty more to be had all around. But the "burdens of the com mon people must be ligetened." So we take up our Krag-Gonrensons and march to his place and put him out of the way. Of course his vife and children and friends may object to this but they will have to suffer a similar fate. Sucn a lit tle tliijig as that dare not stand in the way of the advance of civilization. whic. be keeps up for the sake of fie "dear people," where they may have a safe place to deposit their surplus cash. Ue also loans money, but charges six, seven, or eight percent on short loans, Now Dr. llillis and I think money is not worth over five and one half percent. In order that the burdens or the oppress ed people may be lightened we drive my neighbor out of the business, confiscate his property, and hire him as book-keeper or janitor. My fourth neighbor U a rather shiftless sort of fellow who does not run his farm according to the latest improved granger jSatent methods, as adopted by the Forest County Farmers' Institute. The needs of tue world demand a stridor economy in his work. Dr, llillis and I, being sol f appointed judges of alllhings, very kind ly offer our assistanao as chief directors of the farm, emphasizing our offer with the gleam vt bayonets and the rattle of a few duui-dum bullets. We are iu favor ot the school, the col lege, the county paper, and any old mag azine that comes along. We're It. The Shooting of Goebel. Assassination is murder. It is hoped that the criminal who made bel his target In Frankfort will be identified aud suffer the ponalty to be pre- soi ibed by law. It has been evident for some time to friends of order throughout this conutry that an extremely danger ous situation exists in Kentucky. In every county men are heavily armed, and under such circumstances trouble may ocur at any moment. A few days ago there was a desperate sheeting affray in Frankfort, in which bystanders not con cerned in the quarrel were the heaviest sufferers. The cause of tho increasing excitement in Kentucky is apparent to all. An impression widely prevails in the state and outside ot it, that an at tempt U on foot to deprive its citizens of fair elections, to take away the right to choose their true representatives at the ballot box. Goebel has headed this movement and has been pressing it steadily to a consumatton through the Legislature. Ue was the recognized leader n this plan through all successive stages, rom the convention that divided his own party to the proceedings o the present boards of contest, and the recent daily transfer of legislative credentials from the opposite party to his own. That bloodshed should result in a state like Kentucky, where the carrying of arras is general and the crisis one of the gravest the state has ever known, is not surprising. That it should take the form of attempted assassinatiod is especially deplorable. All violence due to super heated political feeling is deplorrble, Something must be more than ordinarily wrong in Kentucky when such deeds are committed. Is it not time for the sober- minded, prudent and honorable elements or the state to take suitable action to pro vent matters from being even worse than they are? Undoubtedly, a majority of Kentuckians believe In and support the soverignty of the ballot. Such a question can never be essentially partisan. An honest verdict by the voters is at the ba sis of all parties, and the ballot box can never be struck down except by conspir ators. The solid people of the state, regard' less of party, ought to exert themselves to quiet tbe prevailing excitement, and the way is to convince citizens that no invasion ot their rights as voters is pro posed. That will, instantly dispel the signs of htorm. The crime by which Goebel was struck down is symptomatic of conditions that have been growing worse for months. few days ag.i a body ot armed men arriv ed in Frankfort to present a protest, They came at their own instance and were eventually persuaded to return home. In the petition they framed and handed in they said to the Legislature "We implore them that they uo not, on slight or tecbinal pretexts nor for flimsy or trivial causes, permit the subversion ol that supreme law of the land, the will of the people.' Every Kentuckian who believes that subversion of this nature is intended should strive to the utmost to persuade his representatives to go no further in a course of revolution that simply startling. The wonder is th buch a petition should have been written as the last resort tor justice. There are courts in Kentucky, there is a state gov ernment inaugurated after the most searching tests of the popular vote had been made by boards of the opposite party. Surely, Kentuckians should find some peaceful, upright way to calm the agitation that prevails, to reassure the people who think their liberties are threatened and to prevent the spilling another drop of blood in this strange and tragic form of politics. The Farmers' Institute. The farmers' institute held In the court bouse last Friday and Saturday proved to be a verv successful and beneficial gath ering of the tillers of the soil of this sec tion. Tne meeting was called to order by Hon. C. A. Randall, who presided throughout the two days' session, Pray er was offered by Rev. N. B. Critchfleld who also responded to the address of wel come that was so ably delivered by R. C. Heath of Starr, and who was generously complimented on bis effort. Hon. J. B. Phelps was the first to ad dress the institute on the question ol "in creasing and maintaining fertility," and while his talk was short it was certainly to the point. The subject of Lime was discussed by Dr. Win. Frear, who wa at home on this as well as all subjects on which be spoke. Mr. Critcbflleld talked intelligently on Cultivated Crops, and the afternoon meeting adjourned. At 7:30 the Institute was again called to order and a song rendered, Onward Marching. The question box was open ed and a number of Interesting topics were discussed. Mr. T. F. Ritchey gave very Instructive talk ou the importance of sanitary regulations in public schools. Mrs. Palmer very pleasantly rendered Mendelssohn's wedding inarch on the vio lin, accompanied by Miss Lizzie Randall on the organ. The "ideal education of farmers' sons and daughters" was enter tainingly discussed by Rev. C. A. Rhiel. The "farmers' home" by Mr. Critchfleld was ably handled, and after some more pleasing instrumental selections by Mrs, Palmor and Miss Randall, Dr. Frear gave a talk on "nature studies In p blic schools." He;used a chart and showed the work of the busy bee as an illustration. Saturday morning session opened with the question box and a good talk by Mr. A.!(.t.t.l iljntfnt. na fortlll'pr I Mr. Phelps' talk on the management the corn crop was very inslru?tive,and ho verv satisfactorily answered many ques tions relation to the subject. Mr. Ciitch- fleld gave a good lecture on "plowing of the wicked, or wicked plowing," and then bid good-bye to friends, his pres ence being needed elsewhere in institute work. The question box was ag.iin brought into requisition, and S. D. Ir win, Esq., took a prominent part In the discussion. At the Saturday afternoon session many questions were asked, among oth ers -how to prevent c!nbroot iu cabbage? Dr. Frear's Idea was to disenfect, or change of ground. Is Kemp's manure spreader any good? Yes. How can Kid, solid roads be made In sandy bot tom? Ky putting In stone, or hauling some substan. e on top and packing dowu by the use of wide tires on your wagons. The matter of Forestry was abiy disouss od by Mr. Irwin, who gave very many hits as to how forests might be reclaim ed, and urged farmers to give more at tention to planting trees tor ornament as well as usefulness. On the same line Mr. T. D. Collins talked entertainingly on the great benefits to public roads by having them properly shaded. Dr. Frear gave a good talk on the economy of cattle food, showing how, by understanding lie's business, the greatest good could come fiom the least expenditure of mon ey and vexation. The evening session begin by a nice song, and the question box revealed the fact that many important questions of use to farmeis were revolving in the mindsof those present. A large number was ably answered by Dr. Frear and Rev, T. A en. ine regular program was taken up, and a number of most excel lent essays wvre read, which were alien tively received and generously applaud ed. Tho first was one by Miss Lizzie Barken, ider. an old subject Refoini in the Home, Home Life on the Farm by Miss Ida Ledebur. The inconvenience of Woman in Gentral, by Mrs. R. Z. Gilles pie.

Dr. Frear broocht the fifth annual institute to a close with a few well chosen remarks, encouraging the farmers and others to go on with the work so well begun in their institutes, and make each succeeding one an im provement on the last. Mr. George Zuendel very satisfactorily acted as Meo retary of the meeting.
