The thief attraction at Harm-

to have liecu in the approach busi

n-k in January, they were soli-
itfl to sign an agreement to vote
for George A. Jenks, for United
Stales Senator to the end of the

member offered them, first, fifty
dollars, f:nd afterwards one hum!

They were urged to sign a pledge

thjr investigation extended
tic 27tn of March, which was
r.i-.t'd. The whole investigation
' niH like a farce, by beginning at

of the liu and is farcical. It is

Tut? sir- im never rises higher than
source -ind like legets like and
llu ia uiix-rs of the Legislature are
like tiit- iitople they represent. Of
Tjurso i Line are exieptions, and
litre and there ore men Mho are
'A'A giver over to the common
Pi-ru;tices. Such people may be
found h.at?ered through the wards,
and townships, and such people
sometimes get to the Legislature.
Iniuxtnt, chiM like and 'bland
lookiLg people in the election dis
tricts "wco are more commercial
than fhev iMik are on the alert all
the time to beguile a candidate for
the Legislature, for a piece of
money or some other consideration
for a vote. A half dollar and up
wards if it is money, or a drink or
perchance a jug of lmoze. Such is
the practice in the wards, town
ships and towns to a certain de
gree ana candidates become so
used to it that they look upon the
whole transaction as an affair of
merchandise with a large percent
age of the people, azd when a can
didate's moral instinct and better
judgment induces him to protest
he is met with the "Oh well you
can stand it, when you get into
office." "When you go to Harris
burg or Washington, or wherever
else he wants to be landed, there
you can make it all up and a great
deal more." They expect the
office holder to make it oft some
other set of men. With the en
couragement for sneh practices
that the candidates receive in the
election districts the wonder is that
tneonice holders are as good as
they are. AVhere is the moral
difference between a man in the
Legislature giving his vote for
stated price, and a man in the
ward or township giving his vote
for a stated sum. Give the mem
bers of the Legislature a chance,
Let him who is guiltless east the
first stone. Let him tell that out
among his constituents there are
man' guilty ones, and that among
a large percentage their guilt is
like that of the ancient Greeks, is
not considered iu the act but in
leing found out. He doesn't like
to tell on his desir constituents
how, perchance a 8nndav school
struck him for a dollar or two be
cause he was a candidate. How
baud or a cake walk struck him
for a contribution because he was
a candidate. How a book agent
struck him because he was a can
didate. How church enterprises
for a festival, for a bell, for re
pairs, struck him for a contribution
Let him tell how the local officials
among his constituents, road super
visors, perchance get a divy in
deal with machinery agents foi
putting machinery on the town
ships or boroughs, and how school
boards are moved into line by
book, a map, or perhaps a piece of
money to introduce certain changes
of books, charts, furniture, and so
forth, into the schools. Let him
tell of bargains with couucilmen
for rights of way and other fran
chise in cities and towns and then
you'll probably lie of the opinion
that the investigation should be
extended into the wards, the town
ships, and boroughs, not to clear
any guilty man but to strike the
evil at the fountain head. An iu
vest igat ion in the Legislature if
carried on for a century will not
cure the things complained of till
they are cured among the people
who create the . members of
the Legislature. The man who
has to bay votes at home among
his own people, in all probability
will not hesitate to sell his own
vote in the Legislature if he can
gain by so doing.
fiKKMANV is alMMit to withdraw
her war ships from the Philippine
Islands feeling satisfied that the
United States is capable of taking
care of the German interests there
as well as her own. Germany
feels that when the United States
protects her own interests there,
she is protecting the interests of
all other civilized people who have
interests at stake in that country.
A coffin trust with a capital
stek of twenty eight million dol
lars is the latest in the trust line.
A New York banking company
will float the bonds. It will not
be many years till the coffin agent
calls on you and you can order
your coffin, and store it on the
garret or some other place till
vour funeral day.
A PfMP trust company has been
formed and will le organized un
der the laws of New Jersey with
a capital of twenty-seven million
five hundred thousand dollars.
That ought to be a superior trust,
for it has a pump in it, which may
turn to account to water the con
cern wneu the twenty-seven mil
lions have been "dried up."
THE WAR.
The war on the outskirts of Ma
nila continues. The insurgents
are being steadily driven inland.
A battle was fought on Monday.
The Americans cut the enemy's
line dividing their force north and
south. One hundred insurgents
were killed and many wounded.
Three Americans Mere Lilled and
fourteen wounded. The Pennsyl
vanians were not in the fight.

AM ELECTIO COHTEST.
At this time it looks as if Lick
township would be tbe seat of an
el ct'on contest.
Lack township by Act of Assem
bly approved the 5th day of April,
1849, was divided into two election
districts. This was done for the
convenience of tho voters. All that
portion of the township lying north
weetwardly of the summit of Shade
mountain - constituted Black Log
flection district and the vjting place
wan at tbe Birch Bun school house.
Lack township is like any other
township in its government and with
the exception of election office s and
an assistant assessor the same officers
govern that township that govern
any other.
Bnt there being two elec ion dis
tricts, tbf re must of necessity be
two Bets of election officers, one set
fur each district. - But the balance
of the ticket must according to law
be the same.
Tbe Republicans and Democrats
m Lack township nominated candt
d des for the respective offices. The
Republicans of tbe Black L-er elec
tion district as is tbeir right nomin
at d candidates for election officers
and assistant assessor. Bnt tbe
Democrats cf Black Loz made no
ticket.
Then, we have bf en informed, H.
C. Bbioe, tbe Commbsioners clerk,
went into Black Lo? with a nomm
ation paper which contained the
names of the Lack township Demo
cratic candidates to wbich were add
ed the names of candidates for elec
tion officers of the Black Log elec
tion district.
There were eight names signed to
the nomination paper which was
beaded: "Tbe nomination paper of
tbe Democratic party.
lo can this nomination paper
''Democratic" was clearly a violation
of the law, which provides, that no
words shall be nsed in any nomina
tion papers to describe or designate
tbe party or policy or political apptl
lation, represented by the candidate
named in such nomination papers as
aforesaid, identical with the words
used for tbe like purpose in certifi
cates cf nominations made by a poli
tical party which at tbe laat preced
ing election polled two per centum
of the largest vote cast.
Wben the Commissioners printed
tbe tickets for the election tbey
placed this ticket that came in ua
der the head of nomination papers,
in the Democratic column. It con
taining the names of tbe regular
Democratic nominees for office in
Lick township, with the exception
of the Black Log election district
offieerg. Under tiie head of Bepub
can were placed only tbe names of
the Black Log election district office
candidates. The balance of tbe
ticket was a blank.
Now, tbe sequel. There wt-re
four candidates for the office of Sup
ervisor?; two .Democrat and two
Republicans, and wben tbe vote was
aunounctd it was found that in Lack
t iwnsl ip, the Republictu candidates.
Messrs Uarruthers and Hampton
were so far abead that the vote of
Black Log election district would not
charge the result and the certificates
of election were given to them. Later,
lem. Jater,
it was found there was no ppnblicar,
the returns fiom that district cbanged
the leenk and elected the Democrats.
Now, tbe Republican candidates
for Supervisor, having the certifi
cates of election ill present the
certificates together with their bonds
to tbe Auditors this week and will
demand that tbey be sworn in.
Tbe Auditors not being election
i fflcers, must accept tbe certificates
aad b .ndf, if they do not. a writ of
mandamus will issue out of the
C jurt to compel them so to do, and as
the Court cannot go beyond the cer
titicates of election for evidence to
determine the legality or illegality of
the elect i n will compell tue Audi
tors to accept tbe bonds.
If the Democratic contestants con.
st the election they will be met
with the Act of 1897, which author
izes the Court where an omission has
been made in printing the ballots
whereby tbe result of the election
may have been afftc'ed. to declare
be election invalid and to fill the
vacancies by appointment.

THE SEW WOMAN IN MA
NILA. .
Philadelphia Times. -Where did
the Filipinos, who got all tbe civil-
z ilion tbey have from the Spaniard?.
learn to beat their wives ? The Kan.
sns soldier wbo Ulla of this practice,
in a letter to a friend in tl.is country
frankly gives theconundrnin up, but
that tbe wives are learning already
of a better civilization and acquiring,
doubtless, new light on the question
of woman's rights, is evidenced from
tbe soldier's letter despite some am
biguities. He says : "I do not know where
tbe natives get the idea, but when
ever their wives don't do as tbey
want them to they beat them,, and
the women have learned to notify
the guards, so we have lots of fnn
with them
Now, if this gallant fighter and
painful writer means that the fun is
bad with the wife-beaters and not
with, the beaten, all is well, and the
new woman in this country, who has
not heretofore expressed herrelf
loudly on tbe question of expansion,
may now be expected to become a
firm friend and ally of the policy.
