For the un worthy, who merely labor for the sake of stirring up unpleasant things, no body cares, but we refer to the worthy rakers of insurance and railroad graft and bad meat. Let us beware how we soothe agi tated public sentiment, with the as surance that the shocking revelations of shaky morality in high places, which have been made during the past twelve months, have produced a general bracing up of moral tone; that everybpdy is turning over a new leaf, and that there is really much less rascality than there was a year ago. The signs point the other way and suggest that there may be a great deal more to be raked up. It is announced, for example, that a company engaged in the insurance of merchants against loss by burglary has decided to abandon Its business in New York city. The chief of police don't know what to make of it, pro testing that thieves and burglars are not nearly as plentiful in Gotham as they used to be, and that there are more of them in other cities, where the company continues its business. Whereupon it is shrewdly suggested that the fraudulent disappearance of insuied property is not difficult to affect under certan conditions, and particularly when valuable gems are thus protected. The primal dependence of all sound prosperity upon morality thus receives simple and direct illustration. The insurance business, in all of its branches, is a development of advanc ed civilization, and assumes a high average of honor and honesty. That rascality has been found at the heart of it, iu the life insurance business, does not affect this truth. That fire insurance is embarrassed by fraudu lent fires only confirms it. The gen eral appreciation of the value of in surance forces even upon those in clined to be dishonest the conviction that honesty is the best policy, but it is the high general average of honesty, the moral standard of all the people which makes this object lesson pos sible. Let us, then, be most jealous ol this standard of morality; let, us urg( the searching out of crookedness auc: immorality everywhere. COERCING THE PEOPLE OF ARIZONA. The defeat of President Roosevelt's scheme by the Democrats to force Arizona into partnership with New Mexico, appears to have enraged him against the people of that territory. He threatens them that "if they let this chance go by they will have to wait many years before the chance again offers itself, and even then it probably will be only on the present terms —that is on the condition of be ing joined with New Mexico." Ari zona is Democratic, New Mexico is Republican and the great majority of the voters are Mexicans and the Roosevelt scheme is to force the two territories together and make a Re publican state. This plan is very ob noxious to the people of Arizona, who are largely Americans and prefer to remain as a territory than to be ruled by the Mexicans. Thanks to the Democratic amendment to the enabl ing the people of Arizona have the right to vote, for or against, the joint statehood plan. The federal office holders are already engaged in an active campaign to induce the voters to accept statehood with New Mexico. They should be attending to their official business. —EVERY good citizen of Pennsyl vania will rejoice to accept the State Democratic ticket in its entirety at the polls this coming November, for it means all for the good of our great commonwealth. —TRUST magnate Schwab lias just lost so much money gambling at Monte Carlo that he will have to re consider his determination to run for Senator in Nevada. YOUR ASSOCIATIONS Thou art noble; yet 1 see, Tliy honorable metal may be wrought From that It is disposed, therefore 'tis meet, That noble minds keep ever with their likes; 1 For who HO firm thaPeannot be seduced? —Shakespeare. The adage runs that an author is known by his writings, a mother by her daughter, a fool by his words, and all men by their companions. In tercourse with persons of decided vir tue and excellence is ot great import ance in the forming of good, clean character. The force of example is powerful, especially in the young. And as we are all creatures of imita tion, and by a necessary influence our tempers and habits are very much formed ou the models of those with which we familiarly associate, day by day, better to be entirely alone than in bad company. Evil communi cations corrupt good manners just as fire in the forest makes the timbers rotten and useless, stripped of all their former beauty and strength. 11l qualities are catching as well as dis ease, and the mind is at le.ist made weak and sickly. Are jesters and buffoons our choice friend ? He who loves to laugh at folly is himself a fool ! Do you love and seek the society of the wise and good? Is this your habit ? Had you rather take the lowest seat among these than the highest seat among others? Tlipn yon have alreadv learn ed to be good ! You may not make very much progress but even a good beginning is not to be despised. Hold on your way and seek to be the com panion of those who fear God. So you-shall be wise for yourself and wise for eternity. No man of position can allow him self to associate with the profane, the Sabbath breakers, the drunken and the licentious, for he lowers himself without elevatiug them. The sweep is not made the less black by rubbing against the clean, while they are in evitably defiled. What is companionship where noth ing that improves the intellect is com municated and where the larger heart contracts itself to the model and di mensions »112 the smaller? Washington was wont to say "be courteous to all, but intimate with few, and let those few be well tried before you give them your confidence.'' It should be the aim of young men ; togo into good society. Not good in the sense of riches, pride or fashion, 3 but the society of the wise, the in telligent and good. When you find men that know more than you do, ' and from whose conversation one can gain information, with them it is al ways safe to be found. It has broken down many a man associating with 1 the low and vulgar. No connection ' or friendship can be lasting where a 3 conformity of inclination and dispo -1 sition does not exist, all passions and ' finer feeling of the soul must gently ' harmonize, and form one common 1 lasting interest. REVILING THE DEMOCRATS. Mr. Taft is disputing with Mr. Roosevelt the championship of the nohle profession of diplomacy—hiding the truth. In his speech to the ne groes and Federal office-holders of North Carolina, June 9th, he declar ed that while the Democratic leaders have been for years declaring against corporations, "they have instituted no legislative steps in all this time to re strain the abuses." Taft knew this to be utterly false. lie knew, for instance, that the Tillman-Gillespie resolution under which the Standard Oil and the railroads are now being investigated was of Democratic origin. Hp knew that the Tillman bill to prohibit corporations from contribut ing to party corruption funds, —a bill which passed the Senate, but was op posed by Root, Roosevelt, and Taft so that it failed in the House—was of Democratic origin. He knew that the Democrats in Congress have in troduced numberless measures design ed to curb the trusts by abolishing the tariff duties on trust-made goods. He knew that nearly every Demo cratic State had established a railroad commission to prevent extortions and discriminations by the railroad com panies. In tine, Taft knew that he was evading the truth and gloried in what he was doing. Let him read what Roosevelt has written about liars, and he will probably think less of himself, unless Iloosovelt has told him not to believe such things. THE ONLY ISSUE After the Democratic convention accepted Emery as its candidate for governor, there need be no hesitation in the Prohibition party doing the same, though it be that Emery no more subscribes to Prohibition doc trine than to Democratic, outside the one issue of reform in the administra tion of offices of trust, which is the only issue in this campaign, as the ac tion of the Democratic convention sufficiently testified. It set aside all other questions and determined to fuse with the portion of the Republican party that revolted against the administration of the pub lic affairs of which that party has been in charge for many years, and against the corporation malpractices which that administration has fost ered. If the Prohibition leaders think that their chosen issue is more import ant than this, they can take the senti ment of their people in the matter by nominating a ticket of their own, if they have the courage to do it; which they will not have; for they would not command the votes of their in telligent followers, who will under stand that this is a time to join in with their fellow citizens of all parties who rally under Emery in the cause of honest government, and for the downfall of those who have been so sorely abusing the trusts they have held. — MISERY comes to the masses mainly from two phases of inequal ity—inequality in property and in equality in political rights. Both kinds of inequality are growing with tremendous rapidity under the Re publican regime. Equality is the basis of every just government, and Democracy stands for equality, LET IT BE YOUR BEST EFFORT. Kadi one is a leader, a teacher;] you have your followers; possibly you are not aware of the fact, but some child, some one is being influenced by your words, your acts, your life. Whatever your work, you can make your life sweet, grand and noble. Literature can depict life, music can instruct and give voice to emotions, commerce is the means by which we advance; all work helps to minister to some phase of the life of men and women, and it is the business of each of us to cultivate, to develop and to lift up life. We can make our work grand and important, and be proud, dignified anil earnest in maintaining it. Let nothing stand in our way of puttiug our best in our work. How much our young people do in helping people to live; not by commanding and dic tating, but by your bright faces, your ambition, your energy, your earnest ness, your pleasant ways, you give others courage, you make them strong and they are better fitted to live and carry their burdens and do their daily work. Wherever you are or whatever work you are doing fill your place to the fullest extent with noble, conscien- tious service; by this you will prove yourself a person of exceptional merit, J and if you can accomplish larger | wm-tr snnmbnily will find it. out. Your work, your place and the people you live among may not be just as you desire, but for the present this work is yours, this place is yours and these are the people you are to help. Do your work so well, so completely, and tit yourself for the higher place. We all look forward to a larger field, a more honorable place, but after all, the quintessence of life is to help peo ple, just where we are, by living at our highest and best. If we do this we accomplish a life's work no matter what our work or where we are. The important thing for us to consider is, how have we done our work ? How have we acquitted ourselves ? How truly have we helped people? A TRUE FRIEND. If you would have friends, your self must be friendly. Friendship is a very common senti ment, yet a very great and important one. It enters into every life and continually affects it at every period from childhood to old age. Friendship in its strictest sence should be limited in its manifestations, for the human heart and life can scarcely have more than one ideal friendship. Friendship means con fidence, and he who takes many into his confidence and gives them a knowledge of his real self and life commits a serious folly. We may have many friends who esteem and respect us, but among them all there should be one above all others—"the friend who stieketh closer than a brother," the one to whom we intrust ourselves even more entirely than to one bound to us by the ties of blood. David and Johuathan had doubtless many friendly companions, Jjut only their "two souls were knit together." The elements of true friendship are commonly known—constancy, "a friend in need," faithfulness in sacred ly guarding every confidence intrusted to us. No viler or more contemptible person exists than the one who betrays the confidence of friendship or deserts a friend in the hour of trouble. But besides a human -friend, we have the I opportunity of a divine friendship. [ In Jesus Christ the Sou of God, we may find a friend upon condition of conformity to His divine will. "Ye are my friends if ye do whatsoever I command you." The best of earthly friends will fail us, but Christ will I never fail. BRIGADIER GENERALS IDLE. Our top heavy army is to again be reorganized to give employment to the large number of Brigadier generals who have nothing to do. Seven posts are to be established at once and two more, if the funds hold out, and in each of these is to be concentrated enough troops to form a brigade with a general in command. This will necessitate the dismantlement of most of the smaller forts with accomoda tions for one regiment or less. This is the Roosevelt-Taft plan and the appropriations made by Congress of SBOO,OOO for army posts and 83,000, - 000 for barracks and quarter and 912,000,000 for transportation of troops are to be manipulated to carry out the scheme. It might be cheaper and better to retire a few biigadier generals, or for Congress to reduce their number, but such retrenchment could not be expected from a Repub lican Administration. DEALING WISELY WITH TRUSTS- Why did the Republican Congress defeat the Tillman bill which provid ed for exposing and punishing con tributions by corporations to party campaign funds ? Well, let us see. If the Sugar Trust should produce its sweet donation, or the Steel Trust some of its tariff plunder, or the Coal Trust, through Baer or some other God-entrusted coal baron, should "come down with the dust," it might be awkward to publish such things to the vulgar world, or to punish such "benefactors" of G. (). I*. As Pharaoh said about the Hebrews, so the Republican party said about the trusts: "Let us deal wisely with them." — ROOSEVELT has cost more and is worth less than any other president we have ever had," declares Senator Brfiley. The Texas statesman has the happy faculty of compressing a great deal of truth into a very small com pass. —-Trust products are costly to the citizens and cheap to the 112 ireigners. Why not revise the tariff that protects the trusts and even things up 1 —The hot weather and the Congress got on the Presidential nerves, but the Democrats were quite cool and comfortable, thank you. MUCH IN DEMAND It is to lie lamented that there urc not more meu like the Hon. Win. T. Creasy. He lias served in the State legislature with singular intelligence anil fidelity to the people for live terms aud his place in thai body, can not easily be tilled if he withdraws his nomination aud devotes his attention to the office of Auditor General, which nomination the Democrats and iude | pendent or better thinking classes of ■ the Republican party'has conferred ' upon him. I There is no question but that Mr. Creasy would make one of the best Auditor Generals .the State could af ford, but he will be badly needed in the next Legislature, too. Present | indications point to a saturnalia of ' corruption during the next session. Abstemiousness during the next ses sion has whetted the avarice of the machine leaders to a keen edge and now that they have bent the Governor to the basest servitude, they will plunge into the sea of loot to an un exampled depth. Mr. Creasy's pres ! ence, with his experience, ability and I integrity would hardly serve to avert the operations but he would make the j process as difficult as possible. I It may safety be said that there is no man in the State whom the ma chine leaders would rather defeat than "The Farmer." 'He is a thorn in their side, a man whom they can neither delude nor corrupt. He is of the people and for the people and if it is possible for him to hold both offices, which we regret to say seems improbable, we would like to see him do it. NO MACHINE JUDGE. Yesterday (Thursday) afternoon another meeting of the Judicial con ferees took place at the courthouse in this city but adjourned still disagree ing. This is only the second meeting held, and it is expected that err long an amicable understanding will be reached and Hon. John G. Harraau will be the nominee— Some of the ringsters are earnestly endeavoring to create a feeling toward compromising in favor of an outsider, naming "Jack" Gorman, of Wilkes barre, as their particular choice—a choice to be admired (?) too. "Wouldu't he be a beaut, though." The good people of this district need entertain no fears in this direc tion, for there are too many able and respectable persons in the district to select from rather than to condescend to material of this stripe. —WE often wonder why it is so many young men can be seen loatiing upon our streets until a late hour of night. Many of them are from our best homes. The lathers of these young men, many of them at least, are numbered among our best citizens. If their cow or their horse or even their favorite dog was away from home after dark they would be out on a search, but their own children can roam the town all night with appar ent no effort being made to find them. The boy seems to be turned loose at a tender age to wander at will into the paths of sin and vice and then we wonder where all our tramps and worthless specimens of humanity come from. It is a regrettable fact that too many of them come from seed germinated in good homes and then sown in a careless manner upon our streets and back alleys. Reader, is your boy wasting his time upon our streets? If so had you not, at least, look after him as carefully at night fall as you would your horse and cow. We do not intimate that this evil ex ists to a greater extent in this com munity than in our sister towns, but the evil seems universal and increases iu magnitude as the years roll by. — THIS fact that one of the big rail roads has contracted for 1,500,000 railroad ties to be brought from Japan is very significant, and one that should set the people of this country to thinking. It is not so long ago that men in this and other States girdled trees to kill them quickly, and burnt them up when they fell. That was the quickest and easiest way of getting rid of the timber and clearing the land. Not twenty years ago the Northern Pacific Railroad cleared a space of 200 feet wide on each side of the tracks in Oregon, through some of the heaviest timber we ever saw. Thousands of trees from one to six feet and more in diameter lay piled 011 each other to a considerable height. Those trees would today be worth a great deal of money to that road itself. No doubt it has vast timber resources left, but even that does not excuse the wanton destruction of millions of feet of the finest lumber in the world, at a time when the supply is running short, and we are compelled to send eight thousand miles for the ties need ed for our railrads. THE Republican theory that the higher the taxes the more prosperity, proves tlint President Roosevelt is a thorough-going Republican for lie heartilly endorses the spending mania and extravagance of his party. For instance, how readily he gave way to the Wads worth-Cannon plan of mak king the people pay for the meat in spection, instead of the Packers being made to pay. Can you remember any recommendation of Mr. Roose velt for economy in expenditures ? —GERMANY celebrated the Fourth of .Tilly more enthusiastically than ever before for a hundred years. Not only did the American residents do their utmost, but even the Germans themselves, their Emperor at the head. Of course, the celebration was not al together in honor of our Fourth, but because the Emperor on that day be came a grandfather and that a suc cessor to the imperial crown came in the person of Wilhelm 111. This little Prince may some day rule over the German nation. We hope, if he does, he will have all the ability of his grandfather, without any of his questionable ways and qualities. When bis turn conies to rule over. Germany, and we hope it will, we trust we shall hear less of the mailed hand and more of the plow-share and pruuing-hook. BRYAN PICTURED AS CONSERVATIVE After Democratic Leader Loaves London for a Tour of Britain ex - Congressman Levy Exploits Political Possibilities k Here. London, July 15. William J. Bryan left London today. He will visit Oxford, Stratford-on-Avon, Ed inburgh, Glasgow, Belfast, Cork aud Dublin. He will return to London July 23, when he will goto Haw arden. With the endless speculation which is being indulged in as to the plat form which Mr. Bryan will adopt should he become the Democratic nominee for President, the opinion held by Jefferson M. Levy, a former Democratic Representative from New York, who is now in London, is of much interest, because it brings to light anew phase of the reforms which the Nebraska leader is seeking to ac complish. Looking at the situation from the standpoint of a banker, Mr. Levy believes that Mr. Bryan's prob able campaign will appeal to the con servative financial interests of the United States through the prospect of the financial system being regulated in a manner which will preclude the possibility of such upheavals as fol low a change of administration every four years. INFLUENCE FOR STABILITY. "Nothing is more menacing to the prosperity of the country," said Mr. Levy, "than the upheavals which threaten to occur after each" Presi dential election. What we need is to have our methods so systematized that commercial, industrial and financial interests need stand in no fear of be ing interfered with by any change in the administration. Washington, un der the present arrangement, is too much of a weather vane ou the coun try's business methods. There is every reason to believe that Mr. Bryan would bend his energies to ward bringing about more stability in the form of government. "Blessed with sound business sense, he favors a conservative financial sys tem and lie lias skill to put a peg here and a peg there, so that our methods would soon be on a firm basis. This is an opportunity which he would un questionably avail himself of if he were to become the next incumbent of the White House. His conduct in office, I think, would bo the embodi ment of conservatism. ERA OF REORGANtzatioii. "I do not believe he would try to interfere with the Constitution of the United States, but, at the same time, he would work for national better ment. Exposures of rottenness in many quarters which have been made iu the lust year or two have formed a basis for an era of reorganization which he would take advantage of and erect on it a staple structure of safe, sane methods." Mr. Levy predicts a Democratic victory at the next Presidential elec tion. FARMER CREASY BUSY But Crops, Not Politics, Engrosses Democratic Candidate. Bloomsburg, I'a., July 14.—Farm work is interesting W. T. Creasy more than politics just now, anil, al though he is the Democratic candidate forAuditor General and also a candi <late for State Representative from this county, his crops are getting more at tention than his fences. Wiping his perspiring forehead 011 a wide bandana as he sat down 011 his front porch with a sigh of relief this evening he said:— We took in ten loads of wheat from 1 o'clock this afternoon until 7 o'- clock this evening, and then hunted a lo.'t dog and found him 011 ti e roof of the barn, so that I bad altogether too strenuous a time lately to pay much attention to politics. Candidly, I haven't had time late ly with all the farm work to be done to give any consideration to my plans for the present campaign. There is plenty of time vet for ine to decide whether or not 1 will remain a can didate for Representative. Mr. Creasy seems quite unconcern ed regarding the coming campaign, and spends most of his time from early morning until late at night superin tending details of his farm. Not Dead, but Sleeping. Mrs. Kate Moore in remitting her subscription to the lutelligencer for 1900-07 says:"ln subscribing for your paper a year ago I thought I would get some news from Moores burg, my old home, but it seems they have all left or the place is dead, that they cannot give any news at all. Stir them up a little and get new life into them." [lt does seem strange that we can not secure a correspondent from that particular locality, but we assure Mrs. Moore that there are still some live people living at Mooresburg. They are only a little indifferent. We es pecially request that someone try to report a few items each week.—Ed. A Sin to be Straight. An exchange says, Col. Guffey asks if it is a crime to be a straight democrat. We say yes, it is an ignor ant sin to be a straight Democrat or straight Republican when one knows the candidate to be unfit, and only votes for him because he is on his ticket. If what the candidate repre sents, is not for the best interests of the party he represents, then do not vote for hint simply because he be longs to the party. Be independent enough to vote for what is for the best interests of the community at large. Notwithstanding the crookedness and uneveuness of the street crossing ] nt the intersection of Bloom and Wal nut streets, it is a great improvement | over the old one.
