TELLS HIS OWN AVe never heard it before but guess I it is all true that Congressman Satnu-1 els and the President run tiie United j States Government for the several ! last years, for Samuels said so at the j Republican county convention last Saturday. If he is only re-elected the farmers will all have good crops and receive high prices for them and the wage-earners will receive the very highest salaries for little work. Mr. Samuels' address had better never been said, or rather it should have been prepared by the person who wrote the nomination speeches that were read by the delegates. They were all light. Mr. Samuels attacked the Demo cratic party on free .trade and a few other minor issues, getting himself into an awful mess, overlooking or forgetting the fact that it was by the aid of the Democrats that he was elected, lint then, if he is re-elected he will see that congress is run right and the President kept straight. Samuels must have been a big fish at Washington, but it's remarkable li iw successfully he evaded the news paper fiends, who are constantly searching every nook and corner for such startling and wonderful charac ters, and how he succeeded in keeping his greatness withheld until this par ticularly special time that he might tell the tale. But then a sage once said, "He who tooteth not his own horn the horn of the same shall not be tooted.'' A COMPLI CATED TANGLE. The Express companies have such a complicated tangle of tariffs under which they have been plundering the public, that they have requested of the Interstate Commerce Commission an extension of time in which to pre pare rate schedules for publication under the new law. As the express companies have been charging "all the traffic will bear" in most cases and a little more than it would bear in many transactions, you now have an opportunity to obtain more just charges by appealing to the Com mission. — SENATOR LODUE called it "un important" giving testimony before the Grand Jury in the case against his private secretary for the larceny of money paid for the Republican campaign fund. The voters, how ever, may view the matter as import ant enough to defeat the Lodge Re publican machine, for in this case the promise was made in return for the donation that the donor was to re ceive a consular appointment. It would seem that some people believed that offices could be purchased and that Senator Lodge was the man to deliver the goods. — ATTORNEY GENERAL MOODY has been forced to admit that Judge Parker's contention that all the laws under which the federal government has prosecuted the trusts and corpora tions existed prior to 1904. Will President Roosevelt and Secretary Cortelyou also acknowledge that Judge Parker is right, or will they still deny it as was the case about his other charge that the corporations were contributing to the Roosevelt campaign fund in 1904, which has also been proven, but never acknow ledged ? —SENATOR WARNER and Con gressman Ellis are telling the people of Missouri that Congress at its next session will give revision of the tariff its earnest consideration. Will these two innocent Republican ducklings explain how the tariff could be revis ed at a short session of Congress ? The Protective Tariff League will be after their scalps if they talk that way. Don't these "kid congressmen" know that the Republican program is to stand pat ? REPUBLICAN bluff works first rate in political matters, sometimes, but i somehow it does not seem to "make i the dirt fly" at Panama. J < WHEN RICHES FLY AWAY Riches in these days not only take to themselves wings ami Hy away, but they get up and scoot with the speed of record-breaking automobiles. A concern, incorporated only some eighteen months ago, with a capital stock stated at half a million dollars, has disappeared from AVall street like a whiff of cigar smoke in a December gale. F. K. Fish, Jr., & (Jo., In corporated, was the style of the firm upon which the sheriff received an at tachment to the amount of some thir teen hundred dollars. He easily found the office of the corporation, but was informed that the furniture therein belonged to another company. The bank with which the vanished corporation had done business had a balance of twenty cents to hand over to the sheriff, and the creditor had to be content with that. Now this was somewhat startling for the thirteeu-liundred-dollar party, but it is only a more picturesque ex ample of what is happening all the time, and of what will continue to happen as long as there are trusting folk anxious to risk what money they have in getting quickly wealth that they could not take care of. There will always be foxes to catch geese. It is a pity that it should be so. It would be a great deal pleasant er if the foxes could all be shepherd dogs and the geese wise and dignified turkeys; but we must take the world as we find it; and that being so, and geese being more valuable to the com munity than foxes, it would be well to guard agaiust such foxy business as we find exemplified in the above cited disappearance of a half million dollar corporation. The state authorities should pay some little attention to parties taking out articles of incorporation; should inspect them occassionally, and see that their resources are more readily available, and less liable to evapora tion than in the ca.se stated. But first we must have the right kind of state authorities. — THOSE Latin American countr ies, which occasionally indulge in re volutions, should remember that Sec retary Root, who is uow in their vic inity, has the "big stick" with him ; and a battle ship to back it up. This I new style of diplomacy has not been | ratified by the United States Senate, ( but any thing goes with the present strenuous Administration. ADVICE TO YOUNG MEN. "Young men keep out of politics," says Senator Piatt. That advice would be all right if Senator Piatt had said: keep out Republican ma chine politics, which are rotten to the core. Every citizen of a Republic should take enough iuterest in poli tics to investigate the policies of part ies and vote—always vote—according to the result of his investigations. Young men especially should take an interest in politics, for it is upon the young men of today that the govern ment of the Republic will rest tomor row. Some young man of today will be, in a few years, president of this country, or he will be Senator, or Congressman, or governor of his state. What would happen if the young men of the country "keep out of politics?" Young men should in vestigate how the so-called Republi can policy of protection that l'latt j and the other Republican leaders j stand for, taxes them for the benefit of protected interests. Young men | should know why the cost of living is so great—4B per cent, higher than j when the present tariff law was en- j acted —and their salaries have not in- , creased in like proportion. Young j men should inquire why they are com- j pelled to continue in the employment i of others all their lives instead of as i formerly looking forward to be their own masters. It is not to the inter- I est of Senator Piatt or the Republican j leaders that young men investigate the plundering system that the Re- j publican party stands for, therefore they say keep out of politics. —-Now that the President has 825,- 000 to spend for traveling the railroad agents are enticing him with all kinds of tales about bears and other game in l'ar distant states. Last year when they had to carry him on a free pass, they reported but little game and that very wild and uncomeat-able. RIVAL REPUB LICAN FARMERS. Private Secretary Loeb, who is gen eral factotum at Oyster Bay, is a faithful worker for his strenuous chief. He keeps his ear to the ground quite as closely as Mr. Roosevelt does and keeps track of the subterfuges and dodges of the rival Republican states men and does not intend they shall outdo, or attract more attention than his master does. This keeps Loeb busy, for the wiley ways of Fairbanks, Cannon, Shaw and the less known can didates for the Republican nomination for president, require an active and fertile brain to cope with them. Loeb had noticed that farmer Fairbanks had been publishing the fact that he was getting in his hay crop and not to allow his master to be outdone, lie descended to subterfuge. He put up a job with Old Noah who cuts the grass at Sagamore Hill to await the appearance of a storm before attempt ing to"put hay in the barn" and then point out to the President the danger of the hay getting wet unless help was furnished forth-with. Noah's appeal to Mr. Roosevelt was promptly met and the diplomatic Loeb had the camera man take a snapshot of the President saving his hay, in case some doubting friends of rival candidates should attempt to prove that "Roose velt is no farmer." Loeb's literary hurcaujdid the rest and the correspon dents were all furnished with mani fold copies describing how Teddy got in his hay b'gosh. The next move of Fairbanks or Cannon to corral the bucolic vote is awaited with iuterest. —THE Maryland terrapin trust lias had a bad jolt in Pennsylvania, where the Attorney general has decided that snapping turtle is not terrapin. Thus is public opinion, even in that trust ridden state, compelling Republican I officials to discover that trusts exist. | G Bill bestirs Jon.

A RINGING DECLARATION Lewis Emery, Jr., the Lincoln and Democratic) candidate for governor, In his letter of acceptance, asserts In his own Incisive manner the well sigh forgotton principle that the people are the rulers and officeholders only ser vants. He demands places of trust lor honest men and prison stripes for grafters, and Insists that the higher the position of the offender the greater should be his punishment. The first duty of the citizen Is to free the com monwealth. Instead of submitting to a system under which corporations make the laws the McKean county candidate demands a reversal of this order, by compelling the corporations to obey just laws. The lull text of his letter 1* as follows: Hon. Vivian Frank Gable, Chairman. Lincoln State Convention. Hon. John T. Lenahan, Chairman, Democratic State Convention. Dear Sirs: Your letters of July 17, 1906, were received. I accept the nomination for the high office of governor, from the Lincoln and Democratic parties of i Pennsylvania. Aside from its opportunities to serve the public, the position in itself has for me no attractions. Tho prospect is bright that the united effort of patriotic men may now ! shake off permanently the debasing thraldom that has hampered and dis j graced the commonwealth. | The gravity of the obligations to be assumed and the consciousness of my own limitations, would forbid my vol ! untarily becoming a candidate, but the ! crisis that has produced the fusion of - your parties, and the extraordinary submersion of party feeling, raise the 1 proposition above personal considera ' tlons. | It is at this time the duty of every I faithful citizen to respond to all calls | for service. ! The tender or acceptance of the i nomination for governor commits no one to any national policy. There ought to be no difference of opinion among good citizens as to the vital issues involved in this year's contest in Pennsylvania. Our model constitution has been treated with contempt; our laws have been defied, public property and office have been used as personal and party spoil, and the government has been ad ministered as an Incident to the schemes of corrupt politicians in con spiracy with the manipulators of pre datory wealth. This has been possible because the voters, the overwhelming majority of whom are honest and patriotic, have in the past been deluded by party cries of no significance in regard to state or local matters. The Lincoln aiul Democratic party conventions have carefully excluded from their platforms, as I understand them, all possible inference that our joint action this fall can be construed as an endorsement of or pledge to any of the leaders or theories which may come before us in the national arena. The united efforts for purer politi cal purposes and practices, for civil and commercial equality and for im partial enforcing of law, regardless of the numbers, wealth or Intrigue of the violators, is in accord with the teach ings of the nation's most illustrious leaders, and is of the same patriotic sentiment that has led the best men to disregard party lines in support of righteous measures in federal adminis tration. The same bosses who dictated the nominations opposed to yours, exer cised absolute control of the lesisla ture of 190b, and compelled their ser vile tools to insult the president of the United States by rescinding the resolution approving his efforts toward bringing the defiant corporations with in the limits of just laws. We will not bo deceived by hypocritical professions contradicted by words and acts when they were arrogant in their supposed Invincible power. The same self-perpetuating oligarchy that, as the result of last year's defeat and in fear of this year's further pun ishment, allowed to be placed on the statute books just laws long demanded by the people, but by the machine bosses heretofore contemptuously re fused, now scheme to regain control | by denunciation in an insincere plat form of their own foul record and frgm)Bing future Impossibly good be liavlour. Their discomfiture in the preliminary skirmish of last November brought them to their knees. Their complete rout in the impend ing battle will force them to uncondi tional surrender, will emancipate the Republican organization, which they still absolutely dominate, and leave the whole people of the state free to govern themselves uncheated and un bossed. Variant views may be held as to economic theories and federal policies; but all true men may and ought to be filled with consuming ardor for the redemption of the commonwealth from the grasp of her spoilers. To this righteous crusade I pledge all my power. In this crisis wo must be more and better than Republicans and Demo crats. We must be champions of the glor ious cauMe of re-establishing constitu tional representative free government. Indifference to civic duty has for 40 years kept the state in bondage to an unholy alliance of political corruption and corporate greed. The militant spirit of crusaders is needed. Theodore Roosevelt, the incarnation of moral back-bone, leads the way. The example of such stalwart official integrity as that of Mayor Weaver, of Philadelphia, and Mayor Guthrie, of Pittsburg, is an Inspiration. Animated by the same lofty sense of patriotic duty, the people of Pennsylvania should wrest the state from control of the men who have despoiled and dis graced her. So long as lawless corpo rations control political organizations, and so long as these organizations are composed of men banded together for illicit purposes, popular government h a mockery and honest administration is impossible. We do not aim to destroy, but to regulate and make it impossible for the corporations to do wrong. The first step is to break the political machin ery by means of which the wrong is accomplished. Instead of submitting to a system under which the corpora tions make the laws, we should see to it that the corporations obey laws just ly conceived and fairly drawn BO that neither the interests of the public nor the rights of the .corporations shall be endangered. The first duty of the citizen Is to free the commonwealth. Legislative re forms will follow as a logical sequence. While the chief executive is powerless to do more than recommend needed legislation, and interpose his veto be tween the people and legislative wrong, it is essential that he be in hearty sym patlv with reform and in no wise obli gated to or associated with men whose interests would be subserved by per petuation of existing conditions. The realization of genuine reforms depends upon the election of a legis lature which will work in harmony with the executive branch of the gov ernment. Our election laws must be so amend ed as to eliminate the party square on the ballot, restrict the giving of as sistance to voters except in cases of physical disability, and checkmate fraud by providing for a recount of the ballots when the ends of Justico demand. The enactment of adequate penal laws, and their rigid enforcement, as a means of correcting the evils which have grown up under the regime of the corrupt machine are imperatively demanded. Imprisonment for offences against the public is more essential than the infliction of punishment for crimes against the person. The re sponsible heads of corporations should be amenable to penal law for granting j unfair rebates, for discriminating ! among shippers and for other trans gressions against the public. We de mand government by enlightened pub lic opinion in place of government by bosses and corporations. We de mand a state government In which those in power shall remember that their authority is delegated by the people. The people are the masters, the office holders are the servants. There should be no place outside a prison for a venal official. Compared with him who uses his political power for dishonest ends, the common thief is almost a respectable citizen. The rule should be—Places of trust for honest men, prison stripes for graft ers. The higher the position of the of fender the greater the need of pun ishlng him. The certainty that ii priponment would follow the corrupt use of power would purge the state of degrading practices. It is especially incumbent upon Pennsylvania to take vigorous action along these iinos. This state was the pioneer in the anti-discrimination movement. It was my privilege more than a quarter of a century ago to assist in wringing from the politicp* powers at Ilarrisburg an antl-discrim! nation law. The fight was long, haro and bitter. The people of the oil re gions were being reduced to poverty and their property was being confis cated by a conspiracy between tho standard Oil company, the Pennsyl vania railroad and the bosses. The act was not all that could be desired. The striking out of the imprisonment clause destroyed Its effect, and the re lations existing between the political , machine and the corporations nulli fied tho law In a great degree. To Pennsylvania belongs also the credit for having taken the first step toward the enactment of the Inter state commerce law. The Idea was born out of the travail of the people who were oppressed by the corpora tions and robbed by the transportation companies. I had the honor, in 1872. to be a member of a committee to car ry to Washington the draft of the b'll upon which, 13 years later, the Inter state commerce law was modeled. It Is worthy of note that the same Influences which killed the penal clause of the Pennsylvania antidis crimination bill, also caused the penal clause to be stricken from the inter state commerce act. For 34 years, therefore, have I.and others who arc associated with us, fought along tho same lines upon which President Roosevelt has taken his stand. Pennsvlvanians were first to feel the crushing effects of rebates and discriminations. Pennsylvanians were early victims of the Standard Oil company, whose methods, gradually extending throughout the country, have borne fruitage in the creation of the many trusts which oppress the public. But Pennsylvanians, the shackles will, next fall, be stricken from the state, and the message car ried to President Roosevelt that we have struck a mighty blow to aid him In his warfare for pure politics, for the rights of the public and for the cause of good government. In this fight of the people it is note worthy that among our leaders are found no grafters, none with necks scarred by collar of boss, no franchise grabber, no political contract manipu lator, none whose names are associat ed with political pollution or public infamy. The horde of ballot-box stuf fers, macers, camp followers of the army of pillage, are against us to a man. This fact cannot fail to have a powerful moral effect upon the intel ligent citizens of the commonwealth. Of equal significance is the fact that against us, and our most aetive foe, is the corporation which more than any other has amassed colossal fortunes by means of special privileges granted at the cost, and in violation of the rights, of the people of this state, and by means of advantages seized and en joyed in defiance of both tho moral and the statute law. As a means of carrying into effect the principles of good government, ad ditional legislation is needed along the lines of the merit system in the public service, revision of the revenue laws with a view to equalizing taxation, granting to electric railroads the right to carry freight and express, effective puro food laws, prohibition of the own ing by railroads of the products they transport, fixing a maximum rate of two cents per mile for passenger traf fic, the abolition of the system of ex tortion practiced in exacting 50 per cent, excess of the regular rate In the sale of mileage books, and other meas ures needed to secure to the public a just share of the benefits of progress and the blessings of prosperity. The closer we get to the people in matters of legislation, the more se curely do we safeguard the state against abuses, and the more nearly do we approximate to an ideal repub lic. The principles of the referendum af ford a practical means for ascertain ing the popular will concerning ques tions of special interest to the public. A reference to the people of such mat ters as the election of United States senators, local option, the extraordi nary exercise of the police power of the state and other questions of simi lar general character, would resolve doubts which unsettle the judgment of legislators, and remove important is sues from the sphere of pernicious in fluences. The triumph of our cause will save Pennsylvania from ever again suffer ing the humiliation of the taunt that men known to be guilty of robbing the public cannot be punished. In accepting the standard you have committed to me, I dedicate to the cause of the people whatever talent and energy I possess. Thirty or more years of my life I have spent In battling for civil rights and for the dignity and honor of the state. If I can bequeath a heritage of duty faithfully performed, if I can strengthen the faith of the rising gen eration in the honesty and trustworthi ness of public servants, if I can help to demonstrate that government by the people is not impossible, If I can leave to the state the record of a clean ad ministration, characterized by high , ambition to safeguard popular rights and interests, my life will be crowned ns I wish it to be crowned. It will give me pleasure to meet you and the committees of your conven tions. I suggest Tuesday, the 28th day of August, and the city of Pittsburg, as a time and place that may be con- ! venient for the meeting which you pro pose; when the Issues before the people of Pennsylvania and our opportunities, 1 duties and responsibilities In regaid thereto may be discussed.

Secretary of Agri culture Wilson has issued orders that a most strict scrutiny shall now be given to all imported foods and food products, with a view to exclude all which contain substances that are ob jectionable or harmful to health. At the same time, it is admitted that it will be very difficult to delect dog meat in sausages or the dog liver in pate de foi gras from genuine goose livers. These facts may serve to curb some appetites that can be satiated . only by imported delicacies. — THE Republican brethren do not seem to dwell together in unity these days.
