ASSEMBLY.
Ko. KKii'HLlcAti:-At the urgent so

candidate for the Republican nomina

the Primaries, May 1. 1!'U.
A. K. MKf'HMNO.
Clarington, Pa., March ill, 1U14.
Tub Democratic House of Congress
went on record yeslerdy in favor of
surrendering our Panama canal rights to
England and the railroads, by a vote of
247 to 161.
What about pap-dispenser Mitcbel
Palmer, who Is Wilson's hand-picked
candidate for Senator from Pennsylvania?
Does be think tbe people of this State en
dorse the giving away ol all our rights in
the canal to tbe English? Not oue-tenth
of bis own party favor this surrender to
John Bull. Not even under the whip and
apur of a Democratic administration.
Dkmochatic opposition to bis Panama
policy brings President Wilson to tbe
tront with a second edition of bis "in
sidious lobby," perbsps as natnralan ex
planation as any from one who must
know bis party somewhat Intimately.
The genuine insidious lobby is the Dem
ocratic policy that is stagnating railroads,
discharging workers by whole bsttaliona
and gnawing at the vitals of business.
Derrick.
"Ir is idle to talk of resusclating the
Republican party," says Senator Clapp.
It is, for the reason that tbe Republican
party is already very much alive. Just
for instance, tbe enrollment of voters In
Jefferson county shows a Republican ma
jority of over 1,000 over Democrats, Pro
gressives, Socialists and Prohibitionists.
Which isn't a bad showing for a dead one.
Punzy Spirit. And that's about the
ratio everywhere.
This power of the administration may
be invoked to put an iniquitous law on
tbe statutes, or to repeal a righteous one
like tbe oanal exemption law, to please
England, but it will be quite another
story when Mr. Wilson, "right or wrong,"
tries to cram it down tbe tbroals of the
American people, or make them surren
der all tbelr rights to Oreat Britain in Ibe
control of tbe canal which American
money alone built.
A oood way to start life is by teaching
school, aaya the Punzy Spirit. While
eudeavoring to help your pupils to absorb
something that is in the books, you in
cidentally learn a few things yourself.
But the best of It fur you Is that it is your
duty to set a good ezample as a teacher.
You must not drink or use tobacco, or
profane language, and consequently, in
your effort to benefit others, whether it is
sincere or only a bluff, you benefit your
self. You escape tbe a.-qulsitlon of bad
habits, and acquire a taste for learning,
which is tbe foundation for success.
Tub chemical factories of the entire
country will cease operations, beginning
Monday morning, and will be closed
down for a period of three months any
way and maybe longer. This move is
due to tbe general depression in all lines
of business which is likewise responsible
for business dropping off 00 tbe railroads
of tbe east, which have laid off thousands
of men within the past few months. The
Pennaylvsnis railroad alooe is laying oU
25,000 employes, and has Issued orders for
the snnullment of 88 passenger trains on
Its Pennsylvania system. The E. I. Du
Pont de Nemours Powder company has
issued orders to close its works at Em
porium to take effect April 13. They will
not say for bow long tbe suspension will
Isst. It will remove from Emporium
about ten or lilteen families to Virginia.
Skcrktary Joseph Kalbfus of tbe state
fish and game association, recently ruled
that the counties uiuat pay the bounty on
the scalps of nozious animals regardless
of whether there is any money in tbe
county treasury for that purpose, this
having been made imperative by the
laws of 11)07 and 1913, whenever the
certificates are presented to the com
missioners that such scalps have been
produced. Deputy Attorney General
Cunningham has just given an opinion in
which be supports the ruling of tbe secre
tary of the association, and the counties
must look to the legislature for means ot
receiving back their disbursements. The
fact that there is no money on band to pay
tbe bounties was hold to have nothiug to
do with the complying with the law. Tbe
fact that tbe hunters' liceuse law provided
that one-balf tbe funds received there
from should be applied to the payment of
bounties, misled tbe legislature Into
thinking that no special appropriation
was necessary, but tbe Auditor General
construed the act differently and with
held the bounty funds until a speciQo ap
proi'rlstiou should be uiade, Ueuce ilie

tbose who traveled out ou tbe railroad
can cite some great experiences iu that

RAILROADS LAYING OFF MEN
Heavy Retrenchments Being Made by
Great Systems.
Adverse state legislation, general
uncertainty and buniness contraction
have foiiipcllf d the important rail
roads of the eastern part of the United
States to adopt a drastic polity of re
trenchment. As a conseiiuence on such lines as
the Pennsylvania, the Xew Yor1;
Central, tha New Haven, the Cenu'ul
Railroad of New Jersey, the Lehinh
Valley and others, have laid off thou
sands of men in every department;
more thousands, maintenance men,
operating men, men in all other de
partments have been put on part time.
Through trains and local trains have
hren eliminated from schedules and
freight trains by the score.
The situation lias not developed sud
denly, it is said, but has been in ex
istence for months. If anything it is a
little brighter now than it was two or
three months ago. The causes are
many fold, it is claimed a falling off
in business in the first place and in
the second the adverse legislation In
various states has so increased operat
ing expenses that former conditions
could not be maintained.
Wants to Sell Her Cpinal Cord.
Desperate for money to hell) restore

purchaser for her spinal cord. De
cadent for twenty-seven years and
spreading poison to every member of
her family, hers is one of the very
few cords ever restored from complete
atrophy from locomotor ataxia and
should, she thinks, he or great value
to science after her death.
