One person for the office of Auditor General. Two persons for the office of Judge o! the Supei lor Court. In accordance with the rules governing the organization, the representation iu the State Convention will be based ou the vote polled at the last Presidential elec tion. Under the rules each legislative district is entitled to oue delegate for ev ery two thousand yotes cast for the Pres idential Electors iu 1W0, and an addition al delegate for every fraction of two thousaud votes polled in excess of one thousand. By order of the Republican Slate Com mittee. M.S. Quay, W. R. Andrews, Chairman. Secretary. It is announced that there Is to be no woman's building at the St. Louis Fair, because Congress failed to appropriate for one. An inconsiderate public insists on pry ing into the methods by which Mr. Ad dicks retains bis hold on the Delaware legislature. President Elmott, in his remarks on vanishing families, evidently forgot the populist family which has become wholly extinct. There may come a time when the earth's supply of coal and coal oil is ex hausted, but it is doubtful if any of us will lack for fuel then. A Chicago professor says that every man is a portablo distillery. The St. louis Herald adds: Well, let's keep quiet about it; we're taxsd to death, already. Minister Bowks, Governor Taft of the Philippines and Governor Hunt, of Porto Rico, were all class mates at Yale and are all members of llio alumni soci ety. The number of horses in the United States has iucreased by 25,000 in the past j'ear. The demonitizatiou of horses by automobiles has evidently proved a fail ure. The calcium salts in well water are recommended as a nerve panacea, and it is an undoubted iact that the old oaken bucket neyer caused any person to see things. Secretary Root says colored "suffrage has proven a failure. That is just what Mr. Bryan thinks about white suffrage and what lie intimates weekly in the Commoner. Milwaukee puts in the first claim for the Rppublicaii National convention next year, und parades the excellence of her beer as au inducement. Isn't the city fixing a trap for the wrong convention. Explorer Peary is anxious to make another North Pole expedition and is looking for a capitalist to back him to the extent of $50,000. In view of the recent cold snap boiiib people think the less di rect communication there is with the pole the better. The business interests of the country have nothing to fear from anti-trust leg islation enacted by the Republican party and the people are satisfied their interests will be protected. Could as much have been said had the congressional majority been Democratic. Some Democratic quacks have formed such a habit of laying all the blame for every sort of calamity on the protective tarill that if they were to see a neighbor's house on lire they would not think of a thing to do but rear back ou their haunch es and squall: "Repeal the tariff.' Mo ravian Falls Yellow Jacket. Between a low and high tariffthere is g tiinl want with the former ; piosperity, contentment and happiness with the lat t r. Capital is not getting all the benefit of prosperity; there never was a lime in the history of America w hen labor was so greatly in demand, nor when the hours ol toil w ere generally so short or the wag es so high. To DELAY Senator (Quay's Statehood bill, many ingenious methods were de viled by opposing members. All means for filibustering were considered careful ly. Mr. (uay was made acquainted with the fact (hat ho would encounter obsta cles until such lime as some of his boast ed majority were absent and the bill de feated. "In order to prevent that meas ure from passing," said one indignant iin iiil.cr, "I will get up and read the Bible from beginning to end." "I hope you do,"quiekly remarke I Sena'nr (Juay, "I am desirous of learning w hat SauiMn did with llio jaw bono of an ass." The only hope for campaign issue for the Democrats lies in the question of tar iff revision. Being a Iree trade party they will be obliged to greatly revise their tariff policies, for they will certainly not find free trade or tariff for revenue only a winning card with the busines o iiunu- nity or even tho producers. They havo tried that policy once before and its adop tion brought uuiver.-al ruin and bank ruptcy . The bill making f'lo the minimum sal ary lor public school teachers hi this State has passed the House at llarrisburg and will. In all probability, go through the Senato without much ado. If the new law shall raise the standard of teachers it wilt Lhva served a irooil nurnose. A good teaeherls surely worth that much. while a poor oue is dear at any price. As the Franklin Spectator remarks, "a bill fixing a minimum rale ol ignorance al lowable in a pedagogue wouldn't be a bad rider for the salary bill." The vordict of ihejuiy iu tho Mix libel case, tried in Philadelphia, indicates that the North American was quite too "enter prising" iu its printed statements accus ing Mrs. Loraino P. Mix with having poisoned her first husband, Dr. Bull, She sued for $100,000 damages and was awarded $5,000. Even if not already married a second time that amount would have been sufficient to provido her with a fair article of husband. The verdict for Mrs. Mix is a commendable outcome. The big dai ies too often cruelly butcher character and reputation, and it's almost impossible to get them to right a wrong or to retract a lie Venango Spectator. President Roosevelt is sometimes criticised for his extravagance That al leged extravagance takes the form of treating his friends with open handed hospitality and spending a considerable portion of his not large income iu excess of his salary. But, if he is willing to do this, why should the people complain T Hospitality is a part of Mr. Roosevelt's nature, and, after all, tho United States, the wealthiest nation in the world, pays its President but $.)0,000 a year, whereas frugal France pays her President $120,000 and fuuishos a palace at that. Mr. Roose velt has to defray out of his own pocket many similar expenses and yet this country is much richer and more pros perous than France. The Atlanta Constitution does not ac cept Senator Tillman as a spokesman for the South : "The South Carolina Senator ial spokesman may feel constrained to fulmina'e hysterically over the negro from the Iact that the black population of his state is in excess of the white, but if his representative capacity in this regard is not challenged in North Carolina, it is most emphatically challenged in Georgia. If the south ft large were to choose a spokesman, porbably Sonator Tillman would be the last man it would select to voice its sentiments on any essentially southern proposition, The Bombastes Furiose of the old school is only a stage character lor one-night noitheru stands now. The role may be temperamental with the South Carolina Sonator. It is typical of nothing Southern to-day, if it ever was typical of anything. We can only ask that the southern states be not judged by llio Tillman Standard of ver bosity. The south is not disposed lo talk too much without thinking, at this time." Benjamin Franklin is clearly, In our bumble judgment, entitled to be regard ed as the greatest American. He was, in a very large measure, the founder of this Republic. He did more, by his quaint, liaid, common sense observations on so ciety and economics, to create a distinc tively vigorous and wholesome Ameri can character, than any other man, fays the Punxsutawney Spirit. lie was the great pioneer iu electric discovery. lie was a patriot and a man of such sterling integrity and honor that the world could not bribe him to swerve a hairs-breadth from the line of duty. Besides, ho was a philosopher and wit. It was Franklin who first assured us tbat"there is nothing sure in this world but death and taxes." It was also Franklin who, when one of the signers of the Declaration of Inde pendence endeavored to encourage a wav ering colleague In sa intr, "We must all hang together," adding quickly, "Yes, sir, or we will all hang separately." Ben was emphatically a good one, concludes the Spirit. IOO IlKWA It I), 100.

Feared That All Perished Through Ex plosion in Colliery. Latrobe, Pa., March 2. Seven men are 'believed to have lost tieir lives in an explosion of firv damp at the Hos tetter-Connellsville Coke company's mine, near here. Hopes are still en tertained that the men may be alive, howwer, and three rescuing parties are at work. Those entombed are: Michael Flack, Michael Flack, Jr., William H Cesser, Steve Hood, John Gakislv, C. R. Benny and John Penzerie. The explosion occurred when the full force of 800 men were at work, and it is considered almost a miracle that so many escaped. The cause of the disaster Is un known. The explosion occurred near the eastern end of the mine and about two miles from the main entry. It was not heard outside, and none except those at work knew anything of It un til the refugees came running to the main entry. Rescuers brought out two men who had fallen unconscious. They soon re vived. The seven missing may be alive, but it has beon Impossible to reach them on account of the dense smoke and Are damp. KILLED HIM IN A DUEL.
