A Flag 700 Feet High-
'-Tiie repablicans of Mount Dallas,
Bedford county, have swung to the
breeze a McKinley and Hobart flag,
which is in the upper atmosphere
700 feet above the ground, and
reaches tbe highest altitude cf any
UcKinley and Hobart banner in the
United States. The manner of float
in; the flag was unique A cable
three-fourths of a mile long was
stretched from one mountain peak to
another and in the middle j-J6t over
the lowest point in tbe iutorvtDiftg
valley tbe flag was swung. The flag
itself is thirty-six feet long, but it is
so high that it appears to be only a
speck in the sky to travelers upon the
H. Si B. T. R. B , to whom it is point
d out as they pais -fount Dallas.
DISS ATI! r ACTIO.
Tax dissatisfaction among the
democracy was clearly revealed in
tbe Convention that nominated Bry
an. One third of that convention,
three hundred delegates declared
against the Bryan ticket and revolu
tionary platform. In Pennsylvania
the dissatisfaction is greater than it
was in the National Convention. The
dissatisfaction in Pennsylvania is
clearly shown in the resignation of
the members of the electoral ticket.
The electoral ticket of Pennsylvania
and the Congrcssmen-at-Large num
ber thirty-four. Of the thirty-four
candidates put on their ticket four
teen candidates withdrew their names.
Such an open revolt against the ma
chine of the democracy has never be
fore been known except in 1860,
when the democratic machine was
turned in to elect a slave-ad vocatmg
democrat. The revolt throughout
the nation; the revolt throughout tbe
State, and the revolt throughout the
eouniv against the democratic ma
chine is large and will not be realiz
ed by tbe leaders ot tbe democracy,
till they see how their ruinous finan
cial policy and dangerous govern
ment policies have been voted down
on the third of November. Vote tbe
republican ticket. Why hesitate
when folly one third of the demo
cratic party is in revolt against their
candidates and the policy they repre
sent.
Spanish Bajbaritiei.
Spanish efforts to pat dowa insur
rectioa in the Philippine Islands has
led to the most atrocious bar bantu s.
The Pbiliipine Islands are a group of
several hundred islands in the Pacific
ocean north of Borneo off the coast
of China. The population, numbers
about four millions mostly under tbe
Spanish government. An lnsurrec
tion has been going on for some time,
and to intimidate and scare back to
Spanish rule, the f overntuent resort-
. . , .. i
a to beroarious acts, wnicn in turn
resulted in barbarious retaliation.
The following by despatch ia a state
ment of the awful barbarities that
have been enacted there.
Tbe Spanish had captured a num.
ber of prisoners, and as an object lea
son to the natives disemboweled two
and hung their bodies on one of the
crates of the town. The infuriated
rebels, eager for vengance, gathered
a farce and hurried to the home of a
Spanish Lieutenant on the out-skirts
of Manilla. They captured tue of
ficer. his wife and 12-year-old daugh
ter, and then began a bloody scene of
tartars.
The most savage instincts of the
natives were aroused. Before the
eyes of bis wife and daughter the
lieutenant s akin was Hit all over nis
bedv. Then the torturers crucified
him, pinning him out stretched to a
tree with their long knives. J.ncy
turned to the woman and girL wreak'
ing horrible vengeance before the
eyes of the dying nusoand ana ia
thar. .
The fall of 1892 was the election of
m democ ratio president, and the
eriaae of 1894 was the passage of the
Wilson low tariff bill. Those two
acts committed by well meaning peo
pie have brought most of the bad
times upon the nation. Reader help
to redeem the country from the evils
of those two acts by voting the re
pabliean ticket.

The Huntingdon Journal remarks:

President within the past ten days
has been to York and settled his ac
count satisfactorily to both parties
and when that matter was disposed of
tho Silver Club president said: "How
soon will I be able to go on with the

of the works: ''If McKinley is elected
we will give you work in about two
weeks. If Bryan is elected, wall
have no work for you in foar years,
possibly never."
Now acien tints are telling the peo
ple that too frequent indulgence in

If the republican ticket prevails
times wiil improve, confidence will be
restored in business sireles and that
will improve affairs in every other de
partment of life. If on the other hand
the Bryan party prevails doubt and
hesitancy will prevail and the finan
cial troublos of the country will be
multiplied and the Lord only knows
when the hard times will disappear.
Vote the republican ticket.
The democrats will indulge in a
grand parade on Friday evening and
on the following evening the republi
cans will have their parade. If tbe
weather proves itself favorable, the
demonstrations will both be interest
ing and enjoyable occasions for the
respective parties. The man or men
who in any way offensively molests
the paraders of eitber party should
be promptly arrested and punished
by the law.
"A law recently went into effect in
Virginia forbidding the sale of l'quor
t a student of any institution of
learning in the state, whether tbe
student be over twenty-one years of
age or not. The penalty is a fine of
from $25 to 300 aad imprisonment
for six months. In addition tbe of
fender must give bonds ia $500 to I e
of good behavior for a year, and a
subsequent offense to the act is for
feiture of the license."
McKinley entered tho Union Army
when he was 18 vears old and for 11
months carried a musket as a private,
and at the expiration of that time he
was promoted to the rank of sergeant.
That was his first promotion. Five
months Later he was promoted to a
Lieutenancy. Then to a staff pos
ition, and on the recommendation of
General Sheridan was promoted to
tbe rank of Major. He entered the
army June 11, 1861 and was muster
ed out July 26, 18S5.
The assault upon Secretary Car
lisle with stale eggs while he was in
Kentucky last week, was committed
by Bryan democrats against a demo
crat, but it is no less an offenco than
if it had beta committed by other
peopla against another man. It is a
punishable efftoce under the law and
has raised a just indignation in Ken
tucky to such a degree that the state
will go by a large majority against
Bryan, and will eventually lead to the
arrest and punishment of the egg
throwers.
Eggs were thrown at Mr. Carlisle
President Cleveland's Secretary of
the Treasury while be was making a
speech in a hall in Covington, Hen.
tucky by Bryan tougns, and every el-
fort was made to intimidate him and
prevent him from making the speech.
Tbe police failed to arrest tbe toughs.
Great excitement prevails all over
Kentucky in consequence of the out
rageous effort to seare off Mr. Carlislo
and stifle free speech. Tbe outrage
will cause the state to go by a large
vote for McKinley, and sooner or lat
er the toughs will be pulled into the
meshes of tbe law for the assault.
The democrats have had a lively
time among themselves kicking at
their two tailed Vice-Presidential
ticket. The populist wing have been
kicking with all their might to kick
Sewall off the ticket, and the revolu
tionary wing bave been doing all they
can to kick Watson off tbe tieket. Ia
this town they wonld not even allow
Watson's picture to be put on their
banner, but in other parts of the
country Watson ia ahead and Sewall
has been kneked off. IN o thing bat a
Providential intervention can save
Brvanism from the thump'ng that
the democrats themselves are admin
istering, and it is not believed that
Providence is inclined that way.
Last Thursday night about 10
o'clock a freight car in a train tun
niog east broke an axle in Duncan-
non. The car with the broken axle
fell off the track in the way of a
freight train running west The en
gine of the west bound train when it
struck the wrecked car of the east
boned train was thrown off the track
and down an embankment 10 feet,
thereby producing a first class wreck
of a score of cars that completely ob
traded all the track and stopped
travel about ten hours. A number
of the wrecked cars were loaded with
beef and pickles and ever since tbe
price of pickles and beef have ruledV
low in Duncannon. Ihe joss is
heavy one for the company.
When the black guard Bryan ele
ment of Kentucky are brought for
ward to throw eggs to intimidate cit
izens from appearing in public and in
exercising free speech as was the case
last week when they assaulted aaere
tary Carlisle with stale eggs and vile
speech, it is high time that decent
people assert themselves and put the
black guards where they properly be
long. Mr. t.-arlisle is not a repabii
can, but the offense against him was
an offense against the right of every
man and for that reason it is an of
fense against the public. It is an of
fenae against every man for the peo
ple who stoop to such methods of in
timidation will employ them against
whomsoever they dislike for polities
or for other reasons. In this case it
is political hate and will cause the
state to roll ap a large majority
against Bryan.

E. G. Siioff.r's store at Oriental

The Bryan banner has been a
wrecker of everything tnat it was I
tied too. It wrecked the chimney a !
of the two banks aii-l had to be tak

kind to poor wayward man in this,
that the minds of men are so coniti
tuted that they soon forget the un

of life. So it is now, we are all look

The Perry County Freeman of Oc
tober 20 says: On tbe first day of
the wild turkey season there were 43
hunters on Buffalo Ridge north of
this place. There was a flock of fif
teen 'turkeys there. The hunters
suoeeeded in bugging seven, five com
ing to this town and two going to
Newport m Gibson and Lew
is Harris of Jtfilicrstown, are on the
hunt almost doily. Last Friday they
returned from the Tascarora moun
tain with 32 squirrels as the trophies
of that day's hunt. Up to the pres
ent they have shot about 200 squir
rels since tbe season opened.
One night last week as a citizen
of the borough was driving home
from Newport, he noticed a horse and
buggy with a man in it along the
fence ef Geo. S. Barnett's cornfield.
When approached tbe man started
his horse towards Newport, when an
other party was noticed in the field
husking corn, be asked him how it
was turning out, but got no response.
He watched them until they left with
their bag of corn. They only went
ont the Newport road a short dis
tance, then returned and came back.
. m An interesting horse
trade took place in Bloomfield last
week. Amos Sheafler of this place
and Harry Holly of Centre township,
swapped animals, 'supposedly "for
better or for worse. Some time
Sunday night or Monday morning,
Holly or some of his friends quietly
entered sbeaffer s stable and traded
back, taking the horse he formerly
owned and leaving the other in its
place. Sheafler, not to be out-gener
aled, sent the animal left in bis sta
ble to the Mollys; and so the matter
rests, with prospects of an adjust
meat before a Jail ice cf the Peace.

HOW ALLSPICE GROWS.
Something- About the Beautlfnl sind Fr
araut Pimento Troe.
The pimento c'r allspice tree is culti
vated iu tbe West Indies niid Jamaica.
This beautiful tree usually grows to a
height of cboat 80 fret. It has a straight
trnuk, uincb branched above, uid cov
ered with a very smooth brown bark.
Tho loav s vary in Rizo and sh::pe, bat
aro alwnyH of a (lark, shining green
color. During the mouths cf Jnly und
August tho Irto is iu full bloom, the
blossoms ccnaintiiig ot very fragrant,
smull, white flowers.
When a new plantation of pimento
trees is to bo formed, uo regular cowing
or plunting takes place, because it is
next to impossible to propiigato tho
young plants cr to raise them frn:
seeds in parts of tbe country where they
aro not found growing spontaneously.
Usually a pieco ci land is selected either
clcso to a plantation already formed cr
in a part of the woodland where pimen
to trees are growing in a native Ftute.
The chosen piece of lund is then cleared
of all wood except theso trees, and the
felled timber is allowed to remain on
the ground for the purpese of protecting
tbe very young pimento plants.
At the end of two years tho land i'l
thoroughly cleared, and only the most
vigorous pimento trees and plants arc
left standing. Tho plants come to ma
turity in about seven years.
In favorable seasons the pimento crcp
is enormous, a single tree often yielding
a hundred or more pounds of the dried
spice. Tho berries are piekod while
green, because if left on the tree until
ripe they lose their pungent taste and
are valueless. The green terries are ex
posed to the sun for a week or ten dnyn,
when they lose their green color and
turn a reddish brown. When perfectly
dry, they are put in bags and casks for
exportation.
Tbe odor and the taste of tbe pimento
berries aro thought to rcsernblo a com
bination of those of cinnamon, nutmeg
and cloves; bence tho familiar name
allspice." Philadelphia Times.

"Any complaints?" asked the orderly
officer of some men who were about to
begin tbeir dinner in a certain barrack
room.
"Yes, sir," instantly exclaimed a
raw recruit. "Tbe beef an bacon in this
