Roll of Honor.
The following are the names of the Re
publican member* of the Legislature who
refused to vote for J. Donald Cameron for
17. S. Senator under any consideration:
A. C. Baldwin, of Lancaster,
H. Wallace Brown, of Crawford,
E. A. Coray, Jr., of Loierne,
Leonard Lewis, of Bradford,
Albert Magnin, of Delaware,
John K. M alii nee, of Crawford,
John W. Morrow, of Indiana,
Alonso A. Potter, of Crawford.
Noah Seanor, of Indiana,
A. B. Sumner, of Bradford,
Austin L. Taggart, of Montgomery.
To which must now be added the rest of
the twenty-five who voted for Thompson's
resolution. j
Owes upon a time when "Grammar- j
George" McCandlees, of Centre Twp., waa ]
deeply provokad with one of his neighbors, ,
he told him that his actions "stirred in hie ,
breast emotions of inefficable contempt,
and if the action of the Republican. mem- (
bers of the House at Harrisburg, last Fri
day. in refusing to listen to a second read- (
ing of Mr. Thompson's resolution censuring 1
J. Don. Cameron for his late official
actions did not cause similar emotions in
the breasts of every true Republican in the
State we are greatly mistaken.
THK Washington correspondent of the
New York Matt and Express explains the
late remarkable breaks made by J. Dog
Cameron as being the result of the warm
friendship between bis wife and
Mrs. Cleveland, and goes on to say that
Cameron seoretlj contributed to the
Democratic oampaign fond during the last
Presidential campaign. -

ed *44,000 from his four years' service under
Governor Beaver's administration —516,000
salary and 128,000 in commissions. Sec-1
retary Stone did nearly as well. Both
these officers made more money than the
Governor.
Oca members of the Legislature, Messrs.
Thompson and Williams, have set them
selves right with our people in the effort
made by them and twenty-three fellow
members of the House to censure J. Don.
Cameron for his treachery to the Repub
lican party They were deceived by
Cameron into voting for him for U. S.
Senator and as soon as they discovered the
deceit they endeavored to correct the mis
take. The 35 members who voted for the
resolution offered by Mr. Thompson will
feel better and stand better with their
people than those who were afraid to go
on record.
Electing U. 8. Senators.
The movement made in Congress to elect
United States Senators should be pushed
with all vigor. Now is the time, and
through Congress is the shortest road to
that end. The Legislatures of the several
States at the same time could be acting, for
if tue movement tailed in Congress it can be
brought abont by the aotion of the State
legislatures. A resolution in the Penn
sylvania Legislature just now would be
timely, and one should be introduced on
the subject, as is provided for in tbo Con
stitution of the United States. Who will
be the member at our Legislature that will
lead in this great reform?
THJ resolution offered in the House of
the Legislature last Friday by Hon. Josiab
M. Thompson, one of our members, will be
found in the CITIZIH this week. It ex
presses the feelings of the Republicans of
our county and is just the kind of censure
that, should have passed on Don Cameron.
But the Cameron henchmen were too nu
merous. Mr. Thompson however stuck to
it. bravely and when he again called it up
on Monday last it received the votes of 25
of the beat members in the House.
An Impotent Conclusion.
The Legislature which is responsible for
fastening Cameron on the State for another
six years tried to anode under some sort of
a cover yesterday by instructing the Sena
tor to vote for a bill he has already killed.
Cameron ia voting for nothing. He has
done all the mischief he is capable of at
present and has lied from the uncomfort
able association with the men he has
deceived and betrayed, to the less oppress
ive atmosphere of Southern Virginia.
If the Republicans of the Legislature
owned themselves and even approximately
represented the feelings of their con
stitutents, they would in strong, emphatic
and explicit language have rebuked the
recreant Senator,who first grossly deceived
them and then basely betrayed his party.
The opportunity was open to these mem
bers to retrieve, in some measure,the great
blunder of last week by demanding
Cameron's resignation and denouncing his
act of politioal perfidy by which he defeat
ed bis party and his President on a vital
party measure.
We congratulate General Gobin on the
success with whiek lie oontrols his indigna
tion. Does he not peroeive that as the
indorser of a swindle he is personally re
sponsible for the resultf He went out of
his way to vouch for Mr. Cameron: it was
bis assurance of Cameron's fidelity to the
party that gave the latter the necessary
vote in caucus. Yet, instead of resenting
the deoeit which has placed him in such a
compromising position, as a man of spirit
and probity should, he proposes nothing
more drastic than the belated instructions,
and supports his position in language as
virile and forceftil as the bleating of a ewe
lamb.
Senator Robinson made some just criti
cism of the feeble resolution of instruction,
but be proposed nothing better. Both
Robinson and Gobin made some claim to
independence when Cameron was stronger
than be is now, but they both enlisted
und«r his colors jnst when snch association
would most hurt them. They are in the
position of capitalists who, after avoiding
an enterprise when it was solvent, pnt all
their money in it the day before it closed
its doors and made an assignment. We
fear they will both lose credit for sincerity
as well aa political sagacity, yet neither
stood up yesterday and proposed a vote of
censure on the man who had dealt them so
foul a blow.—Philadelphia Press.

Harrisburg Notes
Friday is the regular day in both houses
of the Legislature for the introdnction and
discussion of resolutions, and it became
known that some severe resolutions regard
ing J. Don. Cameron's late official actions
would be introduced on that day, so on the
day before, Thursday, his personal friends
sought to forestall such action by having
Senator 'Williamson, one of the two State
Senators snubbed by President Harrison a
day or two before, introduce the follow
ing:
Whereas, It is our unalterable con
viction that the free and untrammeled
right to exercise the suffrage should be
guaranteed and enforced by the National
Government in all National elections; and
Whereas, We hold it as a self-evident
trnth that where representation is based on
population every legally qualified elector
m that population is entitled to the oppor
tunity to cast his ballot and to have that
ballot fairly counted; and
Whereas, Some measure to secure this
right to vote and to have such vote count
ed has been pledged by the Repnblican
party in its National and State platform:
Resolved (if the House of Representa
tives concurs), That cur United States
Senators be earnestly requested to use
every honorable effort to secure the pass
age of the Federal Elections bill.
In the Senate the Democrats said that
the matter was a Repnblican qnarrel, but
after some talk they let the Republicans
have their own way, and the resolution
passed by a party vote. In the House
some of the Independent Republicans
wanted to talk about Cameron, and llr.
Coray said he had already disregarded a
similar resolution, and Mr. Maguin said it
was locking the barn door after the horse
had been stolen, but General Gobin and
Mr. Gillan and others yet have faith in J.
Dog., and this empty, gruveliim.-cnwttrdlj;,
pusillanimous excuse for a censure passed
by a party vote.
On Friday Representative Thompson, of
this county, offered the following:
Whereas, Our senior United States Sen
ator, J. Donald Cameron, of Pennsylvania,
has by his acts pertaining to the silver
question and the elections bill, gone in
direct opposition to the principles of the
party wnich has recently and for the third
time elected him to his high position, said
acts being unrepublican, unwarranted and
a betrayal of the principles and pledges
vouched for by the gentlemen of the Senate
who presented his name to the Penn
sylvania Legislature for re-election to the
office of United States Senator and reflect
ing reproach npon his constituency; there
fore, be it
Resolved (if the Senate concur), Th it
w®, the members of the House of Repre
sentatives of Pennsylvania, condemn his
oourae, and request his closer adherence to
party principles and issues or his resigna
| tion.
The reading of it created a bustle all
over the House, and Mr. Lytle, of Hunt
ingdon Co., jumped up and moved that it
be indefinitely postponed; Fow, of Phila
delphia, a Democrat, cried out that the
Legislature could not censure a U. S. Sen
ator; Brooks made the point that the reso
lution bad not been read a pecond time, the
Speaker asked "Shall the resolution be
read a second timeT" and there were a few
"ayes," followed by a storm of "noes;
and the utter subserviency of the present
Legislature, as dominated by the Demo
crats and the friends of the traitor
Cameron, to him, was proved beyond a
doubt.
Commissions were appointed last week
to investigate the late mine disaster and
the mining laws, the school-book trust and
the State treasury.
On Monday Mr. Thompson, of Butler,
again called up bis resolution in the House
and demanded the ayes and nays. Brooks
of Philadelphia moved for a postponement,
but the Democrats did not vote thus break
ing a quorum.
Speaker Thompson directed the doors to
he locked and ordered roll call. One hun
dred and forty-nine members answered to
their names. He then recited the penalties
to be visited on those who refused to vote,
and the roll call went on for the motion
to postpone action. All the Democrats
voted with the Cameron people to post
pone, while 25 Republicans voted against
the motion. The noes were: Baldwin,
Boyd, Brown, Bnrdick, Burton, Cooper,
Coray, Colton, Farr, Graham, Kennedy,
Magnin, Mallinee, Marrow. McClintock,
Potter, Seanor, Squires, Stair. Stewart, A.
J. Stocking, Summer, Taggart, Thompson,
and Williams.
Gov. Pattison's veto of the resolution
regarding the elections bill was received
and read in both houses without comment.
He disapproves of the bill itielf and there
fore cannot "consistently or conscientious
ly" approve of the resolution.
In the House Mr. Cochran asked for
a small appropriation for the committee
to investigate the School Book trust, and
got it after a fight. Senator Neeb's bill
providing for executions in penitentiaries,
passed se d reading.
The committee to investigate the Mam
moth mine disaster returned to Harris
burg, Tuesday, and it was understood that
they wonld lay the blame on the fire-boss
of the mine. At the meeting of the com
mittee in Greensburg, Monday, one of the
members charged another with holding
communications with the attorneys of the
company,—the lie passed between them
and a stormy scene ensued.
The bill providing tor hangings in the
penitentiaries was the first to pass the
Senate.
The country members met Tuesday night
in the Bolton House. They are reticent,
but it is understood they discussed the
Revenue bill and determined to stick to
the provisions as reported, despite the op
position of the corporations, who say the
bill is outrageously unfair.
Ex-Senator Lee was before the Corpora
tions Committee of the House, and while
he made no special argument in favor of
the Burdick bill, be asked that, as no great
opposition had yet apparently sprung up
against it, the bill be taken out of the com
mittee as soon as possible. Then the com
mittee decided to postpone farther con
sideration of the bill until a week from
Thursdav.
The Road Commission will present their
report Thursday. It will ask for that
$1,000,000 appropriated to be distributed
as school funds are: Each township is to
have three supervisors, and each county an
engineer. The State funds are to bo used
only for permanent roads. The working
out tax plan is practically abolished, as
the ages of farmers who may work out
their taxes are put at a limit.
EVERYTHING moved smoothly at the
meeting of the Republican Co. Committee
at Hollidaysburg, last Saturday, until an
Altoona delegate threw a bomb into the
meeting in the shape of a resolution, con
demning Blair county's Senator, John A.
Lemon, and Representatives A. P. Mc-
Donald and A A. Slayer for voting for the
re-election of Donald Cameron at United
Sates Senator for Pennsylvania. This
move at once caused confusion, many hot
speeches were made, and the delegates
called each other bard names. As soon as
the Chairman could restore order and
seenre the attention of the committee, a
vote was taken, and the resolution of con
demnation was carried by a vote of 38 to
11.

Washington Notes.
During the early part of the week Dick
Quay went to Washington and *® rne
Senator J. Don. Cameron that a self-con
stituted c.inimittee of the Pennsy \ama
Legislature was coming to the Capita o
interview him as to his late official action?,
and J. Dog. packed his grip ami went to
a winter resort in Southern Yirgiuia.
The Democrats criticised Congressman
Dockery, of Missouri, for acknowledging
that Senator Vest's evidence was purpose
ly withheld from the investigating com
mittee until after Cameron's re-election.
Secretary Window's suddeu death in
New York was, of course, the sensation of
the week.
On Sunday Senator Aldrch returned to
the city and stated that he had given up
the idea of again calling up the Cloture
resolution, as it would be but a waste of
time. In speaking of the action of the
eight Republican Senators he said. "The
country understands that we were defeated
l>y eight Republicans who refuse to be
bound by caucus ties or party pledges. The
feelings against t'ie.se Senators is intense.
As party men the eight have been tabooed.
Neither the party nor the majority ol Re
publicans in the Senate can be held re
sponsible for the false actions of some of its
individuals."
On Monday of this week the U. S. Su
preme Court decided that it had jurisdic- |
tion in the Bering sea case which was ap
pealed to the court, but did not announce
its decision. The fact that the Court in
tended to assume jurisdiction in spite of
the pending negotiations created a sensa
tion.

iLed by the Silver Investigation Committee
and though he acknowledged that other
Senators and Congressmen were speculat
ing in silver he was not allowed to give
their names.
On Tuesday a witness before the Silver
Investigating Committee said he under
stood that the members of the Silver-pool
had purchased six million ounces of silver.

Cameron And His Sponsors.
The Republicans of the State Senate,
especially those who undertook to vouch
for the party fidelity of Sena.or Cameron,
had an unpleasant task before them yester
day, when the resolution urging the sup
port of the National Election bill came up
for discussion. Mr. Gobin explained that
two weeks ago he bad pledged Mr.
Cameron's support to that measure in the
party caucus which met to discuss his
claims to re-election to the United States
Senate. Ho (Mr. Gobin) said further that
he had always found Mr. Cameron truth
ful, and had no desire now to impeach his
vericity. He had to admit, however, that
an explanation of tTie senior Senator's con
duct was due to his constituents. Other
gentlemen spoke too of the resolution, and
it was passed by a Ptrict party vole.
Only those gentlemen who conveyed to
the Ki'pnhlican caucus the assurance that
Mr. Cameron wonld support the bill in
question can realize to the full how hard
it is to explain his conduct
in a manner creditable to himself. To say
that he intended to vote for the bill when
it came up, and then to cast a vote which
prevented it being reached, is to confess
himself guilty of duplicity. His conduct
shows too plainly that he deceived his
friends as well as betrayed his party, and
there is nothing to be gained by hemming
and hawing over the matter. He has most
shamefully violated his trust, and the Leg
islature should denounce his treachery and
demand his resignation.—Pittsburg Ga
zette.
Death of Secretary Windom,
William Windom, of Minnesota, Secre
tary ol' the Treasury, suddenly expired last
Thursday night a few minutes after finish
ing a speech at The banquet given by the
Sew York Board of Trade and Transpor
tation.
Secretary Windnui was born iu Water
ford. Belmont county, Ohio, in 1827. and
was raised on a farm. He studied law
against his parents wishes, and was fairly
successful. He was elected to various Go.
offices, and later moved to Minnesota
where he rapidly came to the lront. lie
was elected a Congressman and served five
terms, when he declined a renomination.
He was a member ol the Special Peace
Committee of Thirty appointed after Lin
cou's nomination. He was then elected
State Senator and served several terms,and
resigned in 1881 to accept a position in
Garfield's cabinet. On Garfield's death he
resigned and removed to Xew \ ork where
he established a law office. When Pru
dent Harrison placed him in the cabinet
there was much adverse criticism but his
course has been marked by main signal
acts.

Her Lover was Late.
"Do you know my sweetheart,big Chris
tian Glass?"
Such was the. question which startled the
equanimity of Special officer Zimmerman
at the Union depot last evening. The in
quirer was a pretty flaxen-haired damsel.and
the inquiry was couched iu German. For
tunately Officer/iiiumerniiin understood
"mysterious gutturals/' and was able to
explain that he knew ol' no such person as
Christian Glass. "He promised to meet
me," she exclaimed, wringing her hands
and weeping bitterly. Tim officer soothed
her and prevailed upon her to tell her sto
ry. Ilcr name nas Barbara Schmidt and
she bailed from a sma'l town in the
Rhenish provinces of the fatherland. Her
lover. Christian Glass, had sailed to Amer
ica, where he had auiasscd sufficient money
to support his Barbara. Accordingly, he
wrote to her, enclosing passage money
and agreeing to meet her iu Pittsburg.
The trusting girl came to Philadel
phia, whence, acting on the advice
of friends, she telegraphed Glass and
requested him to be at the Union Depot,
Pittsburg, on time to meet her. Offioer
Zimmerman took compassion on the girl's
sorrow and offered to escort her to u place
of safety. He had scarcely entered the
body of the depot with his fair charge,
when a big ruddy-moustacV.ed man attack
ed Liui, and in (nrions tones demanded to
be told whither he was bearing Barbara
Schmidt? The tones of the big man's
voice aroused Barbara from her grief , and
with a cry ol delight she threw herself into
his arms. It was Christian Glass.
Honest Christian bad come down from
Butler county in receipt of the telegram,
and had waited faithfully all yesterday a;
the Union depot until positive hunger
drove him forth to snatch a hasty lunch.
Within the few unlucky moments of his
absence his lady love's train had come in.
Of course everything was explained ard
the quaint little love story ended quite
happily.—Pittsburg times.

The Summit Social
ED. CITIZKS:— 'We would like to give a
short account through tho columns of your
paper of a social held in the Summit
P eibyterian Church on Thursday evening.
Jan. 29. for tne benefit of said Church.
Af>out 7:30, regardless of the inclemency
of the weather (it being comparatively
dark, wet and muddy) the people began to
arrive and although the lightning flashed
and the rain came down, they still contin
ued to arrive until the church wm filled
almost to its greatest capacity.
The members of the choir, accompanied
by the new organ, which was placed there
a few weeks previous, rendered some very
select music, which was well appreciated
by all after which the selling of the bas
kets began. Mr. S. M. Emrick officiating as
auctioneer.
As nearly as we can learn there were
100 baskets, some of whic\j contained the
name of the lady who had prepared it.
The gentleman who was fortunate enough
to get a basket containing a name was re
quested to share its concents with that la
dy.
This plan afforded much amusement, as
in some instances the gentleman was many
years the lady's senior and in others vice
versa.
The baskets were disposed of about as
speedily as Messers A. Jamison and T. V.
Cochran conld deliver them, and we think
all who were present did justice to the
sandwiches, cake, pickles, fruits, ect., but
whether or not these things did justice to
the persons, we are not prepared to say.
About 10 o'clock we started for home,
feeling that we had enjoyed ourselves, and
that it was good to have been there.
But what about the financial resultf Did
this work payt Ask Mr. John Welsh, who
acted as cashier. His figures show a total
of S7O, of which a little more than SSB is
clear gain, which added to S4O or SSO of
surplus money collected to pay for the new
organ, will go quite awayß towards re
furnishing the interior of our church.
This little c'jurch has within the past
year settled her first pastor, one Rev.
Willis McMees, and is now in a flourishing
condition. ... .
In conclusion we would desire to thans
our friends who attended our social from
neighboring churches, for we feel that its
success was, in a great measure, due to
their kindness.

Ths Philadelphia Press
Has won the foremost place amou;' Penn
sylvania newspapers by the liberality,
enterprise, and fairness with which it con
ducts its business, reports great events,
and the completeness with which it records,
day by day, the life of the city, State anil
country.
Its field is world-wide, and its staff, its
special correspondents, so many and well
organized, its source of news so numerous,
that it appeal* to a wider constituency
than any other newspaper ever published
in Pennsylvania.
"THE Pit ESS," said one of the man
agers of the Western Union Telegraph
Company, "now receives more telegraphic
news than all the other Philadelphia news
papcrs combined." This statement is au
thorative and conclusive,and TilE I'KESS
presents as daily witnesses to its truth, its
twelve to twenty-four bright and interest
ing pages.
But it is not only by its news enterpiise
—by the zeal, energy, and integrity of its
reporters and correspondents that THE
PKESS has won and held the confidence
of its many thousands of readers, rep
resenting every age and every condition of
life, every; trade and every profession,
every faith" and every political opinion. It
is the excellence and varied interest of
THE PKESS as a general family journal,
appealing to women as well as to men,
which have made for it so many friends at
home.and extended its reputation through
out the country, it prints every import
ant event of the world's progress.
The printing of news is always its first
business, but its columns arc also enriched
l>y contributions from the most gifted
special writers, the most famous novelists,
and some of the most eminent public men
of the time. The literary engagements al
ready made for 1891, probably surpass in
number and variet}', and nearly eqnal in
cost, any contemporary magazine, for the
field and resources of such a newspaper as
THE PKESS made it not only a daily
historian, but a daily foruin and a daily
tribune.
Its steadily growing profits and its stead
fast constituency not only demand, but
insure progress. The greatest authors, as
well as the brightest news correspondents,
tind their largest profits derived from and
Pennsylvania newspapers, as well as their
best Pennsylvania audience, in DAILY,
SUNDAY, and WEEKLY PRESS.
In politics THE PKESS is Republican,
lint it knows no other master than the
people whose rights, aspirations, mid
needs it always defends. It has no enemies
to punish, no individual political ambitions
to foster or promote, anil is subservient to
no politician or clique. Faithful to the
great body of readers and voters, whom it
truly represents, it promotes its own in
terest and influence by faithfully uphold
ing their. Its editorial opinions are fear
less and frank —never captions. Its news
is always impartial. In its pages the
the workingmen finds as ready audience as
the capitalist. To all commercial and
industrial progress, to the best through
and best action in every sphere of human
enterprise, it accords a generous and en
lightened hospitality. In the columns of
THE PHILADELPHIA PKESS justice
finds "all seasons Summer."

Keep at it
Some adcertist rs ore too timid.
They spend a ftv dollars and icuit
to see big returns before spending
any more. Trade was never built
up HI that way. It is the house
that KEEPS .12' IT alt the time
that attracts the purchasers.
"Oh, yes, that'* a mighty tjood
scheme for the newspapers!" nays
the non-progre*sire merchant.
So it is. of,course, for they get
paid for giving the merchant pub
licity, and the more publicity they
give him the more they should be
paid, lint as good a scheme as it
is for the nctcspapers, it is a better
one for the merchant.
If an'/ one doubts it, let him
make a list of the most success
ful business men in Butler, and
then examine the paper* to see ij
tin y are not the most liberal ad
vertisers.
