A Republican Wheel Horae.
Amos J. Cummin**, himself
ablest Democratic members of Confess
writes of Reed, Burrows, Cannon, Fayne
and Dalzell a# the Republican leaders in
the Bouse and says: in the
Tho Republican wheel horses in the
House are well worthy of note. A finer
looking set of men has never been seen in
ani legislative body. In addition to this,
there is a large element °f
among them. They are bright, »l'le fel

ability has been tested many times upon
the floor of the House. His attachments,
Demon al and political, are strong.
Dalzell is natty in dress and precise in
debate. A member of the Ways and
Means Committee, he has all the P en
vania predilections for the study of
tariff Like all Keystone Republicans, be
is protection to the backbone and ever
ready to either assault or defend when he
fancies that the interests of b are in
danger. A fine lawyer, he is an exquisite
logican. He can abndge or ex m plify wit

Alexander H. Stephens, he has the same

speaker never oversteps the bounds of par
liamentary decorum. Facts and figure

ment. Each shot is in line and more or les*
effective. Dalzell is by all odds the leader
of the Republican delegation from Penn-
By So ßD much for the Republican wheel
horses. There are a few more of them, and
many more who want to be. Some throw
their heels over the whiffietrees, other
balk at a critical moment, and once in a
while there is one who has the vicious
habit of biting his curb. But, «»kethem
all in all, they are extremely useful to their
party, and more or less useful to the coun
try at large. ______
ONH is apt, in looking over the great
victory at the recent election, to lay the
whole thing to a general triumph of cor
rect principles. In a measure this is the
correot view, bnt without the perfect or
ganization, the hard work, and the excel
lent judgment shown, the pluralities
would have fallen far short of what they
were, and the object lesson to free trade
Democracy have been greatly lessened
How much of this is dne locally to the ef
ficient Chairman of our County Committee
and his assistants is shown by a study of
the vote. The plurality in Butler county
was about 1,400, and the total Republican
vote was over 4,700. Thus the nominal
plurality is nearly doubled and the total
vote increased, for an "off year, by a
handsome number.
This, of course, was owing, in a large
measure, to the efficient organization, but
credit must be given to Chairman Leigh
ner for his work, tor the whole thing was
under his direction and he was tireless in his
efforts to elect the whole ticket by largr
majorities. May wo always have such
chairmen.
Evils of Hasty Legislation.
Publio attention haa recently been direct
ed to various statutes passed by the late
Legislature upon which more or less criti
cism has been based. Among them are
tbe acts amending the corporation laws
of the State which it is claimed are sncept
ible of every diverse interpretations, and
the marriage license law, which it is said,
if literally taken, makes the procuring of
licenses unnecessary until after the first
day of Ootober, 1895. The Act of
May 18, 1893 which provides that
all deeds shall be recorded within 90 days
from its execution, or they will not be
valid against a subsequent purchaser or
lien creditor of the grantor, also seems to
make another important change in the law,
which was probably not contemplated by
the Legislature. That change is, in effect,
that deeds must be acknowledged by the
makers, or by one or more of the witnesses
in the county wherein the lands conveyed
are situated, or before a justice of the Su
preme Court in some other section of the
State. If this is the correct interpretation
of tbe act it will be tbe canse of much
trouble and expense to grantors living in
a diffirent county from that in which the
land conveyed is situated, as it precludes
them from following tbe former practice
ol acknowledging their deeds at their own
home, unless it should happen also to be
the home of a Su[ reme Court Justice.
Another act which is the subject of criti
cism is that of June 6, 1893, which pro
vides that all partitions and valuations
made before tbe act of 9th day of May,
1889,
Shall be valid and of tbe same effect as if
the proceedings under which said valua
tions and partitions were made bad been
commenced and instituted prior to the pas
sage of said act of the 9th of May, 1889.
provided, however, that this act shall not
affect any judicial decrees heretofore made
or apply to pending litigation.
Noting the italicized words and the
proviso, it is difficult to get any sense out.
of the act or to come to any other conclu
sion than that, whatever "its object may
have been, it totally lailed to find expres
sion
The Harrisburg Patriot, which has taken
tbe lead in pointing out these defects,
severly criticises Gov. Pattison and Attor
ney General Henstl for approving of tbe
defective acts and says the remedy is to be
found in sending capable, industrious and
thoughtful men to tbe Legislature and in
the Govenor always choosing an Attorney
General who is a lawyer, but something
more than this is required. As long as the
practioe of rushing through important
legislation in the last days of the session
is adhered to tbe evil of ill-drawn and
nonsenically expressed statutes is likely to
continue.—Pittsburg Times.

Extraordinary Counterfeiting.
Counterfeit railway tickets to the
amount of over SIOO,OOO have been honor
ed in the last tour weeks by the Baltimore
ami Ohio, Erie, Pittsburg and Western,
Nickel Plate and other road#. There was
absolutely nothing on the face ot the tick
ets to indicate they were connterfeit. They
were accepted without question by con
ductors, passed readily by the ticket
counters and entered as of legal issue by
the various ticket auditors. The latter
officials are aa keen in detecting counter
feit tickets as bank tellers are in recogniz
ing bad bills.
The tickets are the most perfect counter
feits of any kind ever issued. Their large
sale dwarfs in magnitude the operations of
all other ticket counterfeiters combined
The first intimation of crookedness cropped
out in the auditor's office of one of the vic
timized lines nearly three weeks ago. In
checking the used tickets from the original
record, two tickets of the same form num
ber were found. The numbering of rail
road tickets is fully as important and must
bo as absolutely accurate as the numbering
of bank or government notes.
The auditor satisfied himself that both
tickets were genuine, and sent a stinging
note to the printer, scoring him severely
for his carelessness. The printer appeared
in person with an indignant denial of the
charge, but when shown the two tickets ot
the same number, was compelled to ac
knowledge that the error was made in his
office. The next day the ticket auditor dis
covered 67 duplicated tickets in the collec
tions, and sent a curt note to the printer
telling him that his services would never
again b3 needed.
There seemed no possibility of the tick
ets being counterfeit. They were exact
duplicates. The next day nearly 300 dupli
cated tickets showed up in the collections
and a panic reigned in the auditing de
partment. Each of the tickets read from
Chicago to New York, and was woith SIS.
The one day's collections showed the com
pany had honored at least $5,400 worth of
tickets tor which it had not received'a
cent ot revenue. .
Experts were immediately called in, the
printer gladly agreeing to pay their bills if
it were proved the tickets came from his
office. At the end of three days, during
which over 500 more duplicated tickets
piled up in the Auditor's office, one of the
experts JeclartV. the duplication was a
counterfeit. With the aid of a powerful
microscope ho had at last discovered a
minute imperfection in a small letter '*o
which showed in just half the duplicated
tickets.
The imporfection was either in the cast
ing of the type, by which it was made
uenrly 3 10,000ths of an inch longer thau
the rest, or else a particle of dust had rais
ed the type in the form used by the coun
terfeiters. In all other respects the jobs
were exactly alike. The paper, ink, type
and press work could not have been nearer
the same if both jobs were printed con
secutively with the same materials.
Meantime the other roads had been go
ing through the same experience. In each
case the tickets were passed without
question by all the handlers, including the
auditors, and not one was detected unt 1
the duplicate numbering appeared. The
wording and form of the tickets were, of
course, different with each road, but in
each case the counterfeit was a work of
art —practically an exact copy of the
original.
Each of the roads promptly issued minute
instructions to their conductors to take up
all the counterfeit tickets and enforce pay
ment of passage from persons holding them.
Each conductor was furnished means to
recognize the counterfeits, and the firi-t
day the four roads named took up over 600
of them. The passengers were naturally
indignant, but each was compelled to ac
knowledge he had bought the ticket off a
Chicago scalper. Nine T)ut of ten of the
passengers who made written statements
of the circumstances declared they had
bought the tickets off a notorious ticket
scalper doing business on Clark street. The
rest were bought in various offices.
With the information thus obtained tbe
victimized roads engaged the services of a
prominent detectivo agency and a large
lorce of operatives was put on the work of
running down the counterfeiters. The
roads are in deadly earnest in bringing the
criminals to justice and are bearing the
cost jointly.
There is no means of knowing how many
tickets were sold by the counterfeiters
I'he railroads now have in their possession
about $200,000 worth, more than half of
which were honored for transportation. In
many cases the purchase of the tickets has
worked a great hardship to passengers. In
the maiority of cases they did not have, or
claimed not to have, enough money to pay
the cash fares demanded by the conductors
when they took up the counterfeit tickets
On one train there were 83 holders of the
counterfeit tickets and 37 were compelled
to leave the train for non-payment of
passage.
The history of ticket counterfeiting is a
long and varied one, but it furnishes no
parallel to the one jast narrated. In almost
every case before there was a question ol
disciplining conductors for accepting pal
pable counterfeits. In ttis case the high
est experts on the railroads passed the
tickets without question.
A Remarkable Discovery.
The neighborhood of Saxonburg was
stirred to its depths a week ago by the re
markable find made by three of its promi
nent citizens. On ihe day following the
late election, three leading Democrats be
took themselves to the forest to find, if
possible, consolation and forgetfulness of
their defeat, in the fascinating pursuit of
the toothsome pheasant and nimble gray
squirrel. For their bunting ground they
obose the wood which lies between
Davis and Bull creeks, through whose
dense shades in olden times wonnd the
Bull Creek road, and along which the fancy
of tellers of old stories and legions are
wont to lay the scenes of many of their
most grewsome tales. But anticipation is
as much out of place in this staid chron
icle as in the thrilling dime novel.
While wandering through the dense un
derbrush tbe trio stumbled over what was
thought to be the headstono of a grave.
The gallant hunters were at once overcome
with a feeling of the deepest solemnity,
and visions of all manner of cruel mur
ders, and secret burials of ill-gotten treas
ures filled tbeir minds, and led them to a
determination to investigate at all haz
sarde.
Procuring implements they proceeded to
unearth that which wax destined to wildly
excite the neighborhood and interest scien
titic Pittsburg. After two leet they
catne upon what proved to be a rude vanlt,
walled on either side with sand*tono ami
fil'ed to its entire depth with broken stone
Three long weary hours were spent throw
ing this out, and after going six feet more,
and just as the sun wue sinking beueHtb
the horizon and as its slanting beams w«ro
touching the yellow leaves into more gold
en hues, they cam lo the bottom of tbe
grave, for such it was! Two immense flat
stones, raised with much iliculty, dis
closed tbe remains of a rude »tone coffin.
Within were the bones of what must
have been a remarkable creature, whether
man or beast. Tbe skull was missing but
the immense size of the thigh and other
bines and the great length and width of
tbe vertebra showed the original to hav.-
been of gigantic size and stature. Every
thing indicated human origin. Several
copper instruments and a copper ring 3
feet iti diameter were found in the grave
The skeleton was carefully removed and
shipped to an anatomical specialist in
Pittsburg for identification and articulation
and will most probably furnish food for
another great controversy among the
scientists.
We shall keep your readers fully supplied
with data from time to time on tbif
extraordinary find and its value to the
historical and scientific societies.
A "First Degree" Vercict.
The verdict in the Hill murder case tried
last week was "guilty of murder in the
first degree."
Mr. Marshall made a "sadly sympathet
ic" plea lor him, bat the evidence was too
strongly and clearly against him to admit
of any other verdict than tbe one found
Hill broke down when he heard the verdict,
and he, his wife, child, and mother made a
sorry scene in court.

CAMPBELL—In Butler, Fiiday, N or. 17,
1893, William Campbell, aged 80 years,
10 months and 9 days.
The death of William Campbell takes
from us our oldest native born citizen.
There are older citizens living with us Out,
if we mistake not, none of them were born
or raised in Butler. Mr. Campbell was
born tin tne Bth of January, 1813, and was
therefore in the 81st year of his age. For
many years past he has been spoken of as
William Campbell, Sr. yet the writer ol
this well remembers his father —a large
and powerful mau —who was known as
William Campbell, Sr. The present de
ceased William has survived all his broth
ers and sisters, and he lived to a greater
age, we believe, than any other of that
family. He is survived by his suns, Wm.
and John S., and a danghter, Mrs. Mary
Herron, living in Monongehala City, Pa
Mr. Campbell's career as a business man
here has been one of great activity and ol
remarkable success. As was well express
ed by his present pastor, Rev. Oiler, he
lulfilled the command of being "diligent in
business. His diligence and industry had
perhaps not an equal among all our enter
prising citizens and his watchfulness and
care over business continued while nature
held out, and almost to tbe very end.
Oar first recollection of him is as a car
penter by trade, in connection with his
brother, the late James Giltnore Campbell,
Esq Then as a general merchant, about
1835, with his father and brother. About
10 years later he with his brother purchas
ed "the preseut foundry at the south end of
the Plank road bridge. This foundry had
been erected by the late John and Alfred
ilcCarnes and was the first of the kind es
tablished here. Under the Messrs Camp
bell it acquired quite a reputation for the
manufacture of cooking stoves, plows, etc
The stoves they made were sought alter iu
ihis and adjoining counties and were the
ones in general nse until supplanted by
the present ranges.
Mr. Campbell took an active part in the
first projected railroad enterprise to and
through ihis place, known as the X-rth
Western Railroad. Although this failed,
yet it paved the way to the making of the
Butler Branch from Preeport to Butler,
now known as part of the West Penn, and
the first railroad lo enter Butler. He also
was active in the construction of the pres
ent Plankroad lrom here to Mlegheuy
City, and, after the late Gen. Purviance,
became its President, in which position he
continued lor many years. He was active
in the first banking business of Butler and
lor many years, and until quite recently,
was the President of the Savings Bauk.
He was also Presiuunt or a director for
many years of the Butler Mutual Fire In
>-urance Company, the fir»t local institu
tiou of the kind. His interest in schools
and education waß well known. His re
ligious character was ot the highest type
and his work lor the church here, and the
spread of Christianity abroad and every
where, was of the most devoted, earnest
and practical kind. Besides, he had the
courage of hid convictions and stood up
and spake out on the right side of every
moral question. Especially was this the
case on the great question oi temperance
which so much iuterests the welfare of so
ciety. His lite has been uselul and trulj
well rounded out, and he "died at a good
old age and lull of years, and is gathered
to his people."
The funeral services at his late residence
on Monday afternoon were conducted b>
Rev. Oiler, pastor of the Presbyterian
Charch oi this place, assisted by the veher
able Rev. White of the Episcopal Churph
and Rev. McKee of the United Presbyteri
an Church, after which the remains were
viewed by many of our people and follow
ed to the grave by many friends and rela
tives. J. H. N.
OBBTUARY NOTES.
Samuel Casted, of East Brook, Lawrence
Go., died Monday. He was 98 years old,
and a pensioner of the war ot 1812.
Death came suddenly and in a tragic
manner to Joseph Steele, of Mt. Washing
ton, Pittsburg, last Monuay. Sitting in
the court room at the counsels' table with
the prosecution just closing in a suit iu
which he was defendant, he was stricken
down and was a corpse five minutes later
Steele was one of thb best known men
throughout the oil regions of Penni-lvania
Back as tar as 1864, when Pitbole wa>-
spouting, he was known in petroleum cir
cles. At Parkers Landing, karns City and
Greece City he owned large livery stabler
and extensive oil iuterests. Iu later years
business reverses reduced bis means, and
he moved to Pittsburg some years ago
For the last year he has been in the employ
of V. O. Hickman, the oil well supply
dealer of Pittsburg, in the capacity of a
book keeper.
May Richardson, aged sixteen years, a
daughter of Alfred Richtrdson, who re
sides on the W. R. Thompson farm in
Middlesex twp., expired instantly from
heart disease, on Wednesday of last week.
General Jeremiah McLain Rusk died at
his home in Wisconsin. Tuesday, Nov. 21,

Physicians said I might live a number of years,

would fall wherever I was. I pcver dared to be

On the Decline.
Not the least important feature of the
late elections was the indubitable evidence
which they afforded of the rapid decline of
the Popnlist movement in the West and
South There were hopes even among
Republicans that in some of the southern
states, as in Virginia, the Populists would
make serious inroads upon the Democratic
party, but such was not the case. The
same is true of the West. Had the Popu
lists not largely abandoned their party
there was a fighting cnance for Democratic
success in Nebraska, where there was dis
satisfaction with some of the Republican
candidates Notwithstanding these disad
vantages the Republicans were all elected
by good majorities. There *as no state
ticket in Kansas, but the results in the
counties plainly show that the Populist de
lusion no longer holds sway, and there is
every probability that the congressional
elections of next year will mark the re
turn of the great majority of the Populists
to their old political affiliations.
It is specially siguificant that in the sil
ver producing states there was the same
drift. In Souxh Dakota, where there was
no special excitement, the Republicans
cast about 60 per cent of the vote, while in
Colorado they carried two thirds of the
counties by large majorities. The major
ities were quite as large in the silver-min
ing counties as elsewhere in the state, and
tne Populist governor must have opened
his eyes very wide when be read the re
turns. — Commercial Gazette.
Washington Notes.
Division in the Democratic Ways and
Means Committee is becoming apparent on
the proposed new tariff bill, and Chairman
Wilson is having a great time keeping the
committee together. On Thursday of last
week representative business men from
Alabama appeared before the committee
and expressed themselves satisfied with
the present tariff law.
On Monday Sec'y Gresham allowed Com
missioner Blount's account of affairs in
Hawaii to be published in full. Blount lays
all the blame ot the Revolution there on
the United States Minister Stevens, who,
he claims conspired with other foreigners to
depose the Queen; had troops landed froui
a U, S. war vessel, and hastily recognized
the provisonial government, before the
Queen was notified of the revolt.

McCANDLESS' HEAVE CUBE.
I have a Heave Cure that will cure any
case of heaves in horses in forty davs, if
used according to directions, and if it does
not do what 1 claim for it, I will refund
the amount paid and no charges will be
made for the treatment. The following
testimonials are the r trongest proof of the
medicines power to cure:
A. J. MCCANDLESS,
Butler, Pa., 1893.
MB. A. J. MCCAKDLESS:
On the 2nd dav of April, 1892, I com
rneneed to use your new cure for one ol
my horses that had the heaves very bad,
aud continued to use the medicine for
about forty days and the horse did not
show any signs of a retuin of them. It is
now about a year since I quit givin the
tnedic\ne and the horse hss never sowed
any signs of heaves, and I feel stisfied
that he is properly cured.
W. C. CRISWKLL,
Butler. Pa., April 3, 1893.
A J. MCCANDLESS:
I have used your Heave Cure and lound
it will do the work if used according to di
rections. Yours truly,
