Are Our Moral Standards Shifting?
Social philosophers and relornaerg do not
always realiie that what people think they
onght to do is, in tbe long ran, more im
p-.rtant than what they really do. The re
ligous persecutors, with all their monstrous
attempts to punish inward opinions by
outside pains, at least foresaw the effect
of letting new standards of right and wrong
come into tbe wond. What is done in
America to day is, therefore, not the meas
nre of the people's uprightness: the mass
of crime and folly which the morning pa
pers bring to our unwilling notice ma>
mean only that the reporter dwelU on
what seems mcst shocking. On the other
hftud all tne current reprobation by laws,
editorials, and sermons may not prove tha
public gambling is oontrary to tbe accept
ed principles ol morality, in tbe face of the
open existence of bucket-shops aud gamb
ling houses. There is one, and only one,
practical national moral standing: tbe con
viction of the average mind as to what is
right aud wrong. That oonvicUon may be
Godgiven at oar birth; it may be implanted
by our mathers, by our churches, or by our
schools; it may be beaten iu by a police
mau's '•billy;" but the actual American
morality of the Nation is simply the "aver
age man'*" stock of conviction.
In many directions the average man has
raised his own standard during the last
hundred years, and is still raising it. To
have abolished political privileges; to have
accepted religious toleration; to have made
druukenness disgraceful; to have learned
to treat the pauper, the lunatio. aud the
prisoner with humanity; to have destroyed
slavery,—these are his splendid achieve
ments. The country has accepted such
new principles as right, and stands b>
tbem. Cbarches begin to realize that they
mast appeal to this average intelligence
and sense of right, and therefore ministers
dwell lightiv on the acceptance of doi triue
and on religoas observances, and itronglj
on good works; they look less to proof
texts for the edification of thoir bearers.
and more to the truth. While in the or
dinary private affairs of life moral
standards are on the whole advanc
ing. the old standards no longer
apply to tbe political and social
matters which now absorb mucn
attentionjfor the foundation of the Nation »
judgements is undergoing a change. Yet
politics and government and labor ques
tions aa.l public ord-»r are as lap iiKle-u a»
religion upon the average idea of what is
praiseworthy and what is iniquitous; thej
are all moral questions.
One of tue evidences of a moral shifting
is that so many people suppose that priv
ate and public i>flairs have two standards:
that it is wrong to use the employer's time
for private gain, but right for u public of
ficer to draw bis salary and then leave the
regular ilati*a to s depaij; that it w wroijg
to aectire * t«>r one'* iwlf brib
ing a city council, but right to subscribe
money to a campaign found to buy votes
lor a party's advantage; or that a distinct
ion may be made between the private and
pnbiic character of public men. Americans
seem rather more prone than loruierly to
consort with Thomas, Richerd and He.iry
if thereby tbey get aid or amusement.
The leading idea of a book wnicb is said
receutly to have sold a hua-lred thousand
Copies in the D ited Stales seems .to be
that, if yon can contribute to the enter
tainment ol people, tbey are to reoeive you
and make you a friend, no matter what
your character. The sooundrel Sveng»lt
is courted by three respectable English
men, and allowed to acquire a fatal ii.fl l
ence over their protegee, because he can
play a folding flageolet. Think of tbe
Svengalis in Americau politios, perfectly
well knowu to be consorts aud partners of
thieves and nnjust persons, and yet accept
ed in political aud even personal fellow
ship by honest men.—For«w, for January
1895.
An effort will be m«de »t this aesaion of
the Legislature to relieve the pressure on
the Supreme Court by establishing en ap
pel I ale court for the adjudication of sever
al classes of cases that ere now carried di
rectly In the higher court. These are to
be called circuit oourts and are to be six in
number, the State beibg divided ii to si*
district* 'I bene conrU are to be compiw
ed oJ the judge* of the common plead in
the several counties comprising each dis
trict, but not more than seven of whom
shall sit at one lime and five of them shall
be a quorum. These court* will have final
jnrisdictiou in many classes of casea but
the more important will still be sut j«ct to
appeal to the Snpreme Court Bailer
county is included in the fif'b district,
with Erie, Warren, Forest, Crawford, Ven
ango, Mercer, Lawrence, Beaver, Clarion,
Jefferson, Clinton, Cameron, Elk. McKeau,
Potter and Tioga counties, ilow the idea
will strike the legal mind is not known, bnt
to the lay mind the proposed plan would
seem to be a good one.
ORt>I*AFCY politeness is only a grinning
mask. It is our inordinate self-conceit
that makes as sensitive. What is said of
you "behind your hack" is more likely to
be an houe-tly expressed opinion than
what is said in your preseuce. Instead of
being angry, you should be pleased, when
you ln-ar yourself cri'icised iu this way,
for ti is a partial granting of the prayer of
the genial Scotch poet,
'•Oh. a ad some power the gift'd gie us
To see ourselves as iihers sec Ust"
But *e love flattery better than sinceri
ty. Uence when people speak dispara
gingly of us, we get angry, and try to per
suade ourselves that they have not ex
pressed their real opinion, bet one dicta'-
ed by envy or revenge, aud when they
apeak approvingly we lake il as a deserv
ed tribu'r to our worth. Man, when calm
ly considered, is a very ridiculous animal
We'laugb at the vanity ot the strutting pea
cock, spreading iis gorge. us leathers to
the sun, and dropping tbem again iu hum
ilation »hen it glances at its feet, but the
attiinde of a vain man stinting In-fore the
world ia much more humorous. Spirit
The Eastern War.
Ki-v. Blodget of B**tfn, who ha* spent
thirty years at Pekin »ays ol the war:
Among the common people of China
very liitle is known regarding either the
causes of the war or the tacts oc> uring in
its progrei..", and the wild**' and moat ab
surd rumor» are afloat The same "is true
in regard to a large part of the officials
and literarj men. Iu Japan, ou the con
trary, everything is published, and per
hans some things which do not occur, in
their nuineronß newspaper*, and their cities
and to»ns are illuminated at every victory
over th>- Chinese. In consequence parity
of 'his. the most intense eiitbusi«am for
the war prevails, even the boys and the
girl* in the schools practicing military
drill. '"On to Pekin" was the cry every
where ss we pa**»d through the country

The Blair-White Fuss.
At Indiana, Thursday, witnesses who
testified that they got money, claimed
that it vu not for their votes. hut to pay
them tor their day's work. The ballot box
of the firm ward, Blairsville, opened
and it wan found that about a doien votes
were illegal. They are nearly ail for White.
Toe boxes of White township and Went
Indian • were opened, and aboat the same
st.te of afftirs discovered
Oa Friday Eli J. Campbell told the story
©u me stand that when he started for the
polls early on election morning he was a
Blair man. On the way he met J. Nickle,
and the latte.'s insinuating manner work
ed a inarveioas political change in bis
feelings Niokel, be said, told him that if
he would vote lor White he would see that
he did not lose his day's wages Eli
wavered and told tbe election board it was
all right for Nickle to accompany him into
the booths. Nickle showed him how to
mark his ballot, aud presented him with a
paper dollar.
Bert Petffer was a very nervous witness,
and looked as though he wished he had
never gone to the polls. Just before tne
election he was in Indiana, and thinking
he could do Judge White some good in his
territory if he had a little "persuader,
wrote the judge a letter to that affect. He
handed the letter to tbe judge in person.
Frank Keener, Esq., is Mr. Watson's law
partner, and the judge told Peiffer to see
Keener He did so and Keener. Peiffer
swore, gave birn two pint bottles 'Moll to
tbe neck " Jndge White was not present
when be got the liquor and be did not feel
that it bad any influence on bis vote.
Nickle alsu seems to have figured promi
nently in the vote of John Stoniger ol East
Mahoning township, although John de
clared on the stand that he had always
been a straight Republican and controlled
bis own vote. Be that as it may, Nickle,
he alleged, went inside the booth with him
and helped bim mark his ballot, and istou
inger had a paper dollar in his pocket
when he came out His brother Joe also
fell beneath Sickle's everwatebfu! eye and
received one of the paper dollars also The
money, Joe said, was to pay for his day s
wages, and not intenned as a bribe.
Alex McCoy testified that while j .urney
ing near his home, previous to tne electioa
Judge White had given him a paper dollar,
but did not ask bis support. He had been
working for White before that time, and
the money bad no influence on the way his
ballot was cast.
Mr. Ruffaer, one of Blair's attorneys,
moved to further amend tneir bill of par
ticulars. This was vigorously objected to
by the other side. The court overruled
tbe objections and tbe bill will be still
turiber amended.
The ballot box of the Second ward of
Blairsville was opened in court and the
names of some 2o voters were found to
have been added to the check list, and no
suffl.ient affidavits in their cases were sent
to the prothonotary's office. This made
tho number of alleged ballots in that dis
triet appear much larger than mentioned
in the contestant's bill ol particulars, aud
'he latter's attorney asked pertnsssion to
ameud the bill. Council for Judge Waite
otij cted. but the objections were over
ruled, and the contestant allowed to a
mend. Abont 40 allegal votes were shown
that day by tbe contestants.
During Tuesday's session several men
admitted receiving money, whiskey at.d
meals from White's friends.
Several other witnesses were examined
that day.and the ballot box of Raf tie Twp.
opened. Several me* who voted in that
Twp. were not on tbe check list, aud Blairs
atty again asked leave to amend his bill of
particulars.
During Thursday's session one witness
swore that Judge White t»ld him to go to
cashier Watt ol the Deposit Bank for mon
ey, and that he went there got i'. It
was bis price for his vote, and he kept bis
word and voted for White Several wit
nesses testified to beiag offered money for
their votes The ballot box of Cherry tap
was opened and an examination of its con
tents begun.
THK electric street railway operators of
Brooklyn "slrnok" last week,aud attempt
ed to interfere with the running of tne

seven thousand of them; and these with
fifteen hundred policemen kept the mob

the militia fired into a crowd, killing one

The Hoapital Once More.
MR. EIHTOB:—On the Bih dav of June.
1893, the Mil appropriating $12,500 to tne
CouuoquenesHHig Valley Hospital became
a law. (10 000 ot this is to be applied to
the bmldiug of tne hoapital as provided
Bat before this fand can be availed lor the
purpose indicated, a like sum of SIO,OOO
moat be raised by tbe people, and unless
ibis ia accomplished before tbe In of Jnue
of the present year the appropriation from
tbe State falls.
This benevolent enterprise cost quite an
effort to achieve the success already attain
ed. Correspondence was bad and a com
mittee of citizens vnited the Slate Capital
to press the subject on the favorable con
sideratiou of the Legislature, with the fav
orable result already intimated
At the tiuie indicated the erection ol the
Soldiers' Monuiuenl was iu process ot de
velopment Soon after the Y. M. CA.
bagan the enterprise of securing a lot !"r
the erection of a Hall, Ac. The desire to
avoid a collision witn either of tnese worthy
enterprises has up to tnis tiiue prevented
further action on tbe hospital question.
The time, however, has couie when a
forward uiovemenl m> si be tiaa. L yalty
to tbe institution —to the best interests of
this community—demand" prom ptjact ion in
order to avail ourselves ol ibe fund offu ed
Tne necessity for such an institution ia ap
parent to all. Unlike some other worthy
ohjecta a hospital in a community is a ne
o- ssity. Bow often have we seen the *'an>
of such an ins'iiution demonstrated. With
railroads, glassworks, machine shops and
many other means ol accident, many of
tbem fatal ones, humanity ilselt appeals lo
us tor action
1 tike this method of calling attentiou
to this subject once mom. Those inter
ested, tor the lime being, with the preHeu
tation of this beuevolent institution must
move Even our selfisti interests should
be aroused in behalf ol a well appointed
hospital here. How much money passes
out of this couuty annually to hospitals
located else* here. Certainly thousands
of dollars. Most of this nrgiil be kept at
home. Not only 80, but patients might be
bronght from abroad to a first class bospi
lal bere.
We are proud of the skill and character
ot many ot our own physicians, many of
them are reaching eminence m their pro
fession Had we tbe means of treating
patients that a good hospital would sff.io
pa'ieuta from abroad would certainly come
to ou» town aud avail themselves of me
benefits ot onr medical skill and tbe coin
foits of a well appointed aitd comfortable,
though temporary home, while under
treatment. A s-art will soon lie made in
this direction Let all gve it their friend
ly consideration. aud when the time couies
their active s\ mpalby aud material assir
