COL. W. A- STOSE AT LEOX
.IRDN CKOTE.
Maty harvest h n.e picnics or gth
eritgs aro Leld in Juniata county
every year. Ths present year has
betn no fcxo.pton to the past except
that the crowds have been larger
than for many years.
Bnt the great picnic, the one that
snrj asptd them all in the size of the
niu t:tiule present, was held last Sat
urday in Leonard's Grove, near Wat
erloo. Pcoplo from five counties
participated. Janiata, Huntingdon,
FiaxtkltD, Perry and Fu'.ton counties
futnitthed of its people, hundreds
vho enjoy an occasion such as this.
until the hundreds had increased in
to thousands, and people who are
compettnt calculators estimated the
crowd to number anywhere from
C,0(iO to 10,000.
The Grove is locatid on the banks
of TuKcaroia Creek and the T. V.
Railroad passes through it.
It is said more people attend this
piccic annually than attend any
other picnic in the five counties just
mentioned,
xut tne attraction this year was
tho presence t f Col. W. A. Stone,
tfce Hi publican candidate for Gover
nor cf this great Commonwealth.
It iave a political complexion to
tho gathering which made it attrac
tive to many who care nothing for
the usual picnic and theee thousands
added to the thousands who always
attended the picnic account for the
multituJe gathered at Leonard's
Grove on Saturday.
Stalwart Republicans, (men who
year after year vote the Republican
ticket irom principle, knowms they
are right, as under Republican prin
ciples me country develops, its re
sources aie enlarged, its wealth is
increased, and tho prosperity of its
people is furthered,) stood side by
sid-j with Republicans who are carry
ing knives in their boot legs for the
and Legislature, becauso they failed to
get what they wanted, either for
themselves or their friends. The
latter claimed to be for Stone for
Governor, but only because their in
telligence informs them ho will bt
thentxt Governor iu epite of any
thing they can do. Democrats were
there to see what manner of man
the candidate of their great political
enemy was. They wanted to see
tho man who so earnestly advocated
tho passage by Congiess of a bill
restricting foreign emigration, and
so c:-rceatiy supported the Dinglsy
tariff bill. They wanted to see the
man whom boili Swallow and Wnna-
maker (who are past grand masters
iu the abuse, personally, of their po
litical enernibs) admit is spotless in
reputation and character, and who,
notwithstanding his personal worth,
aid blameless life should be defeated
for Governor this year because there
happen to be rogues and rascals in
pnb.ic otlice.
There were Prohibitionists ? there
from Lick township and from olher
plact-s too, who cine, not so much,
to look upon the next. Governor, as
to try to secure some ote with tem
erity enough to take the nomination
for Legislature upon the Prohibition?
ticket. A soured Republican, they
preferred, but the writer is unable
to state wbttbtr they succeeded in
tiding their ticket or not.
The advertised speakers for this
occasion were Col. W. A. Stone,
Judge Jeremiah Lyons, Hon. L. E
Atkinson and J. Howard Neely, E'q.
A S. Raffeusberger was chairman
of the platform exercises, and he in
troduced Hon. Jeremiah Lyons to
the audience in the forenoon. Judge
Lyons addressed the people upon
the subject cf the war and the gener
al prosperity of the people and judg
ing from the remarks of the people
the speech was well received.
It was not the intention of any of
the speakers to discuss politics in
their ppseches, at least so they in
formed the writer, but H. D. P.tton,
of Lancaster, Pa., appeared on the
grounds a?tr dinner upon invitation
by the committee.
He is what is known as a hired cr
paid political talker. He has lectur
ed for the Grange, for Prohibition,
for free silver, and now is stumping
the sta'e for Dr. Swallow for Gover
cor.
Mr. Palton was called upon to
make the first speech after dinner.
Patton is a good talker and he im
mediately took up Dr. Swallow's
lauiC afid atUmpttd to tell his list
eners what a brave, bold, grand man
Swallow was to take a stand for re
form in Pennsylvania.
He soon passed on from the eulogy
on Swallow and in a general way
charged the Republican party with
burning the capitol at Harrisburg,
with paying $18.00 a piece for some
cuspidors in the capitol ; with spend
ing $400 for the erection of a flag
pole and flag at Scotland Orphan
School ; with paying $1,000 for pen
knives, paper cutters, holders, etc-,
fcr the members of the last Legisla
tive; for the passage of the Lexow
itve&tigatiBg expense bill. And be
lure he closed paid hiB respect to the
leiu'--iatic party, or what is left of
ir, by saving, reformers could expect
notbirg irom the Democratic party.
Ho virtually charged the Republican
party wis.li being guilty of all the
crimes known to thj Decologm ,
murder, excepleJ. Tiie crowd was
orderly and attentive but as the
speaker simply rehashed Dr. Swal-
-ows harangue it brought forth little
if auy applause.
The chairman of the meeting then
introduced Col. W. A. Stone as the
next speaker.
Col. Stone is not what would be
called a handsome man. He is n
blond, with a yello mustache. He
stands six feet four in his stockings,
and he baa the appearance of being
a good natoied man. He began bia
peeh by complimenting the people
on the weather, the picnic, the fine
grounds, the intelligence of the men,
and the beauty of the women. He
in a general way touched on the late
war, and expressed the opinion that
as President McKinley had been
right all the way through the war,
he felt satisfied he would pro
perly solve the question growing out
cf the war and particularly the
Philippine question. He was satis
fied the tanff was not an issue. 11
was conceded by the Democratic
party that the Dingley bill was all
tight, and all we now want is to let
it alone for fifteen or twenty rears
and we will have such a period of
prosperity s the country has never
known.
He told his audience that Repnb
licau administrations always raised
money sufficient to conduct the
affairs of the Government while
Democratic administrations had to
sell bonds to raise money for the
the same purpose; that the Cleveland
administration sold to syndicates
$250,000,000 bonds to raise money
to pay the expenses of the Govern
ment ; that the Republican adminis
tration when it was raising money
iu time of war sold it bonds directly
to the people
He in answer to Mr. Patton's
charge that the last Legislature was
profligate, said he was no more re
sponsible for what they did, than his
hearers, but that be would be only
responsible for the next Legislature,
in case the people saw fit to elect
him Governor.
Col. Stone told his audience the
net revenue of this great state was
between $10,090,000 and $11,000,000;
that the corporations of Pennsylvania
pay 6, 062,000 of this immense reve
nue ; that tax on personal property,
on insurance companies, on liquor
licenses, and on mercantile houses
raises the balance ef about $4,000,-
000. Compared to the $29,000,000
for municipal purposes raised in the
city of Philadelphia annually, with
its population of 1,200,000, it is small
when you know Pennsylvania con
tains a population of over 7,000,000.
Pittsbursr with a population of
500,000, raises a revenue of $7,000,
000 annually for municipal purposes.
Compare this with the $11,000,000
raised by this great state containing
7,000,000 people.
The speaker showed that $6,500,
000 of this immense revenue was ap
propriated for educational purposes ;
that nearly $2,000,000 more was ap
propriated for charitable institutions,
leaving the balance of about $3,000,
000 to run the executive. Legislative
and Judicial departments of the gov
eminent and to keep up the Nation
al Guard, etc. A small sun to con
duct the affttirs of a state like Penn
sylvania. He told his audience that out of
the appropriation of $0,500,000 for
educational purposes. Juniata county
got as her share for common school
purposes $18,335 91 ; that the salar
ies of her Judges, her State Set a tor
and Representative and her Common I
Scho
ol Superintendent were paid by
the
State; that in return to the j
State Juniata county paid less than
$4,CC0 ; this sum including tax on
personal property, tax on liquor
license, collateral inheritance tax.
tax on mercantile licenses and mis
cellaneous tax. The Col. impressed
upon the people the f-ict that it was
an achievement of the Republican
party that made possible the relief
of real estate from State taxation in
1SG6
He called Mr. Patton's attention
to the fact that be had wilfully mis
represented tbe Republican admin is
tiation when he said the Lexow bill
had become a law, when it is a fact
that it with hundreds of other bills
failed to pass, not because of any
thing Dr. Swallow or the Demo
cratic party had done to prevent it,
but because the Republican admin
istration believed it right and proper
to kill it.
Col. Stone complained of tbe in
justice of attacking a party because
there werebad men holding omce; that
all Biblical students know that one of
the twelve chosen apostles went
wrong ; that out of a gathering of
such a number of men as constitute
the State Legislature of Pennsyl
vania there w:ll be some who are
wrouf ; that it is a great injustice to
a great party to attribute to it im
proper motives, because of the weak
ness of a few of its members.
Tbe speech was well received, and
it was tbe first time anyone has ar.
swered tbe Swallowites in that sec
tion of the country, where their rep
resentatives have been using the pnl
pit and all other means to abuse the
Republican party.
Col Stone expressed the intention
of returning to Juniata again before
the campaign closes.
Hon. L. E. Atkinson followed Col.
Stone and made a brief and able ad
dress, talking principally on the two
late wars and ineidently alluding to
the political situation.
J. H- Neely the last of the adver
tised speakers then got tbe floor, and
after complimenting the crowd on
their looks and behavior, being a
Democrat by birth and inclination,
in a short" but eloquent address
spoke of the sterling qualities of
Geo. A Jenks, the Democratic can
didate for Governor and claimed for
him, that be waa a platform in him
self. Mr. Neely, having the reputa
tion of being the leading Democratic
orator in this section of the State,
sustained on this occasion bis repu
tation as an orator in ably defending
a hopeless cause.
Rev. Diener, then took the floor in
behalf of Swallow, but at this point
in the proceedings the riter left to
catch a train for Port Royal on the
Tuscarora Yalley Railroad, and he
does not know what the gentleman
had to sjy
There is one promising sign for
good, government in Cuba and the
Philippine islands, and that it), the
insurgents do not want tne Amen
cans to withdraw.
Exempt Fr rntlie Draft.
Farmers should be careful f a lot
of sharpers who are going tne rounds
telling them they are likely to be
drafted but that for a certain sum of
money paid to them they will be ex-
empt. These men are frauds of tbe
meanest kind, and if you come across
one of them be sere and have him ar-.
rested. Selinsgreve Tribune.

WORK OF TIIE BROOKLfX.
All honor to the cruiser Brooklyn.
which, aside from the fact that Com
modore SScliley's neuuant flew at her
mast-head during the engagement with
Cervera's fleet, seems by the official in
vestigations juxt made to have given sh
well as received the most and the hard
est knocks during that famous tight.
A tioard of naval officers, acting uuder
orders from Haiupson, has made an ex
amination of the Spanish wrecks, and,
as a result of this, the fact is disclosed
that only forty-one holes larger than
those made by pix-poundere were made
in the hulls of the ships. Of these,
eight hits were made by 4-inch shells,
twenty by 5-inch shells, one y aivinch
shell, ten by 8-inch shells aud two hits
by the 12 and 13-inch shells. It will lie
noticed that the 5-inch shells did the
greatest damage, and as the only 5-inch
guns on ine vessels mat )Ktnicliiated Iu
the fight are mounted on the Brooklvn.
the entire twenty hits made bv the
shells of those dimensions must be
credited to the Brooklyn. Moreover.
the Brooklyn curries 8-inch guns, and
as one hundred of projectiles of that
size were thrown from her decks during
the engagement, it seems reasonable to
credit her with two hits with these.
This gives her a record of 63J per cent,
of the forty-one hits discovered to 4J
per cent, of all the other American ships
participating. Besides this, five of the
5-inch shots were discovered on the
Maria Teresa, five on the Almirante
Oquendo, four on the Cristobal Colon
and six ou the Vizcava. which shows
conclusively that the Brooklyn engaged
them all with equal courage'and effect.
ii is a record or which the cruiser's
officer and crew mav well be proud.
ith Schley on the bridge, the Brook
lyn seems to have sailed into the eneniv
iu a manner befitting the station of the
man directing the right. The results
snow what she accomplished.
1VHEA GENERAL GREELT

The true story of those fearful two
hundred and seventy-eight days iu the
Arctic regions when Greelv's little land

witn death, is to ie to told, for the first
time, by General Oreely himself in the
October Ladies' Home Journal. For
years has General ( Jreely kept a rigid
silence as to his terrible' experiences iu
the icy regions, and only after months
of persuasion was he finally induced to
write out the story.

PREACHED COAT LESS.
The Philadelphia Times of August
22d says. Rev. J. . Freeman, of Boy
ertown, Berks county, the minister
who created a sensation by preaching a
sermon from the pulpit of Saasaman's
Church in his shirt sleeves, has this to
say in explanation : "When I preach
ed the sermon coat less it was oppres
sively hot. The thermometer register
ed 98 iu the shade. I would take it off j
again uuder similar conditions, even in
a city pulpit. I did no more sin than
do the city preachers who wear iu the
pulpit a dress coat, slippers and a shirt
stud. I had no "g wn" at the time,
nor any comfortable garment. We
country preachers must give our people
a good sermon, even ou a hot day,
while city congregations are satisfied
with a fine coat.
"Our professors of theology told us
that when we go to the country we
must take our best sermons aud preach
them, but when we fill city pulpits we
must wear our finest coats."
