It would perhaps be more accurate to aay
that he la going to try to get into it. '1 be
contest for tbe Nnnatorsbip, If there was
any, wai pretty definitely settled at tbe
last election. I'unxsutawney Spirit.
N, ire enough. Republicans generally
In this stale are not clamoring fur tbe re
tirement of Senator Penrose. That gen
tleman has shown up very well, thank
you, in the higher branch of Congreas,
and while some buay enemies have tried
. to beamercb his public record, In not a
Mingle instance baa be been found
crooked. And then we like the way he
baa supported tbe policlea of President
ltoosevelt straight through.
Thkhk Is mucb speculation in Con
gressional circles at Washington these
days as to the ultimate outcome of tbe
pending controversy between congress
and President Roosevelt over tbe use of
the HO'-r t service agents, and considerable
feeling has been aroused over the presi
dent's ironical suggestion that congress
men do not desire themselves and their
actions watched, and still greater irrita
tion over the knowledge that secret ser
vice operatives are on tbe trail of con
gressman, and that the president intends
to continue the practice. Members ol tbe
bouse and senate are wondering what the
president has up bis sleeve. Juat what
the disclosures will be are causing spec
ulation and worriment on the part of
some. It is considered possible that tbe
president may have in bia possession
some reports of secret service agents that
would "shock tbe folks back home." A
cautiously worded resolution of inquiry
lias been adopted and tbe committee rav
ing it in charge ia advised to inquire
wbal tbe President means by his lan
guage In other words certain members
are anxious to insert the probe just a
little bit, but not far enough to cause
trouble. It la altogether likely that Mr,
Roosevelt is prepared for tbem aa be gen
erally ia when be strikes out from the
hhoulder. lie's a mighty good fellow to
let alone, as some have learned to their
sorrow.
With the election of Judge Taft as
President of the United States, twenty-six
men will have occupied this high olllce,
says the Derrick. Cleveland, at his first
election, was tbe twenty-second Presi
dent. Hut alter an interval of one term
be was again elected, fienjamln Harrisou
was the twenty-third. But Mr. Cleve
land, wnen ne occupied tne onice for tbe
secoud time, was still the twenty-second
President. By Home statisticians he is
regarded as the twenty-fourth. This
would make McKinley the twenty-tilth,
Roosevelt tbe twenty-sixth and Taft tbe
twenty-seventh. But in reality, with the
completion of Roosevelt's term, this
couutry has had only twenty-live Presi
ileuls. Washington was the first Presi
demand served two terms. Otbeia after
hi 111 did (he same, but tbey are only
counted once in the line of tbe Presiden
tial succession.. There is no sense In
making Cleveland both the twenty-sec'
ond and twenty-fourth President. Dowu
to tbe cloe of the administration of Pres
ident Roosevelt, there were thirty Presi
dential terms of four years each, Mr,
Roosevelt was the twenty-Ofth different
person to occupy tbe office. This makes
Judge Taft the twenty-aixtb, By count
ing Cleveland twice be can be called tbe
twenty-seventh, but there ia neither
rhyme nor reason lor tbe pruotice.
Roosevelt Again on Top. ...
Those parties who sought to impugn
the motives of President Rousevtlt and
his associates, in connection with tbe
1'itnaiua Canal purchase, are now seeking
the little end of tbe bom, out of which
tbey hope 10 be able to crawl, says the
Oil City Blizzard. These muck-dredgera
have endeavored, In every possible man
ner, to dig up something that would cast
discredit on. the digiug of tbe canal,
something that could, by some book or
crook, be utilized aa a "scandal" circulation-builder.
William Nelson Cromwell,
the New York lawyer upon whom tbe
New York World called to tell what be
knows about tbe transaction, says: "Tbe
whole story of Americans or some Amer
ican syndicate buying up the Panama
Canal securities at a low price, or at any
price, and then turning them in upon
liquidation at a prolit is a fiction and a
concoction. The money of the United
States went to France and ffaadistrihuted
to the hundreds of thousand of foreign
owners, none of whom so far as I know
were Americans." Mr. Cromwell thus
knocks higher than Gilroy'a kite the
charges and insinuations of graft in the
l'auama Canal deal. The sensational
charge was made Uy one ofthe New York
-iers, and copied by tbe Indianapolia
V that tbe (10,ijoo,0no paid by the
tatea to die French stockholders
Mied tbem, and that Cromwell
man who could tell what
money. It bad all the
ge scandal, involving
his brother, and the
fc
sident Roosevelt
V'wg- ' W. Roobeytilt'H
recent letter waa sweeping denial and a
sooarcblng indictment of those who bad
manufactured tbe charges, and be loat no
time In enrolling them in tbe ancient or
der of Ananias. The ed iter of tbe News
made a feeble reply, and the New York
World threatened to demand an Investi
gation ol the whole matter by Congreaa.
But Cromwell's letter effectively disposes
of the absurd cbargea and leaves those
wbo made tbem, figuratively speaking,
"in a hole." Not a dollar of the money
paid lor (be canal waa touched by Crom
well a counsel for the company, nor by
any one connected with tbe deal, but tbe
whole amount waa turned over In bulk to
the French Government In trust, to be
distributed among tbe old and new bond
holders of tbe Panama Canal Company.
Tbia distribution is being carefully made
to nearly a quarter of million of stock
holders, much of It in small amounts,
and the delaila of which la a matter of
public record. No man In public life in
tbe United States ever profited by dol
lar In this large transaction, and tbe most
absurd charge is that which connects
President-elect Taft with the scandal,
since be never bad any official connection
with the canal until months after It bad
been acquired by tbia Government, and
was In the Philippines aa Governor dur
ing all tbe yeara in question. This last
contribution seems tu makjs tbe contro
versy a closed Incident, with Roosevelt
on top, aa usual.
Mr. V heeler Favors Duly on Lumber.
Washington, D. C, Dec. 0 -"The prop
osllion to lake tbe tariff of 2 a thousand
off lumber is a vicious one, and I do not
think if will be done in the framing of
the new tariff bill," said Representative
Nelson P. Wheeler, of Kndeavor, Pa., In
a recent interview at Washington. "It
surely will uot be done if I can help II,
for I know that free trade in lumber
would work a great injury to tbe industry
In this country, and In Pennsylvania in
particular. Many thousand men are en
gaged In Ibis industry in our Slate wbo
would be seriously affected.
"Furthermore, free trade In lumber
would not In any n ay preserve the loiests
of America. It would only result lu the
flooding of our markets witb tbe lower
grades of lumber, while we would still
have tbe demand for the higher grades.
Now, In order to get the higher grades we
would have to cut down as many trees aa
before, Bince all grades come from the
same tree. So witb a glutted market In
low grades there would be a waste, and
many thousands of feet would lie In the
woods to rot or catch fire.
"Free lumber is a live Issue in Penn
sylvania, for we are almost tbe largest
prodmers of lumber in tbe country. In
some kinds we take tbe lead, and our
operations are all on an extensive scale.
We have nearly as many saw in ills as any
other State. And we do not waste any
thing, for the parts of the trees that are
not made up into lumber are used for
wood pulp or for extracts for tanning
purposes.
"Pennsylvania is exporting Idnvber,
sending it into Great Britain In com
petition witb the product of Denmark,
Russia and other lumber producing
countries. White pine la being shipped
from Canadiau ports and from Baltimore,
and there la a good prospect for the ex
tension of our export trade.
"Do not be misled by tbe predictions
that tbe forests In this country will soon
be stripped bare and that (here will be a
famine of lumber. The facts do not Jus-
tily any such predictions. Tbe forests of
Pennsylvania will last for many yeara
after we have goue from earth. In 1865 I
began lumbering on tbe Tionesta and
tbey said then tbe timber would be all
cut off m fifteen years. Our operations
have grown year by year since that time,
and still tbe end is not in sight. Of
course, it Is wise to reforest and to guard
against destruction by fires, but there is
uo cause for worry over tbe outlook."
Slightly Incorrect.
There are several cases of typhoid fever
over Forest County at the present time.
We understand there are some cases In
Tionesta borough and the patients did not
onntract the disease at Marienville.
While it la true that we have aome
typhoid cases here, the Inference some of
our county papers would draw tuat anv
one in forest County bavins tvnbold who
visited Marienville Ibis fall must surely
have contracted tbe disease bare ia ab
surd. Tbe facts are tbattbe people here
are strong 01 tne opinion that tbe lypboid
germs were brought rather than created
here. Marienville Express.
There are no cases of typhoid fever in
Tionesta borough, nor near the borough,
that we are aware of at tbia writing,
Whatever inferences that were drawn re
garding tbe disease in Marienville were
likely Inspired by tbe Express itself
when It published the follow lug item
four weeks ago:
"Complaint has been made that the
doctors in tbia place are not complying
with the law relative to notifying the
board of health, which is tbe school board,
of infectious or contagious diseases that
come under their charge. The law is
strict,! q .auch'cases and should ourdootors
ue maue to pay a nne or aju onoe or twice
for such neglect, we feel certain that they
would not be so careless. The doctors In
question may have something to sav in
regard to this matter aud should we be
misinformed we are ever ready to make
tnings rignt. However, we do know that
certain persons are sick and also know
what the diseases are credited on fne
street, and if correctly stated the doctors
in charge 01 sucn should make a report
wnicn iney nave nomone."

"In treating pneumonia," savs Dr. W,

I would treat other symptoms with dif
ferent medicinea. I have used this rem
edy many times in my medical practice
and have yet tailed to find a case where it
baa not controlled the trouble. I have
used it myself, aa has also my wife for
coughs and colds repeatedly, and I most
willingly and cheerfully recommend it aa
