There is no time to lose if we want to
get out a full Republican vote.
THERE should be no '-'off year with
Butler county Republieans. E.cry i. -
dividual Republican should form lnn.-
self into a committee of on; t J get out
the vote.
THE year preceding a Presidential y-ar
is never an off year in politics. It is JUS
of the most important. A forerunner ol
the greater contest to come. And as a
party gains or loses so is public sentiment
supposed to be drifting for or against that
party.
IT IS remarkable that such a palpable
fraud a& the Mormon religion should con
tinue to flourish after the polygamous
practices of its adherents are no longer
tolerated. Think of a man named Joe
Smith founding a religion that now
boasts over a million adherents, and is
sending out missionaries to many coun
tries who are constantly gathering in
converts. It was generally believed that
tbe polygamous feature of that church
was all that held it together. But with
out polygamy it continues to flourish.
A man who knows says that it is fun
for the Standard Oil Co. to have a fire.
It is about the only corporation in th?
world that does not give a ra.» f»r th •
flames. We hear every day a>> tit 1 •
destruction of some tank, or p 1 - li >-.
or the blowing up of a well. Tii -• c> .1
pany simply raises the prici of r_- iu: 1
oil one cent a barrel, and all ti- c
and losses are promptly settled, ii
company nev-r feels it. Tlii pi>iic
pays for all oil fires, and is in bli»*f il
ignorance of it. One cent a barrel d J-J
not hurt anybody in particular. Thes>:
one cents however, make millions for
the company. Nothing better illustrates
the potency of a penny, and the taking
care of them enables the dollars .to look
out for themselves.
THERE is a reasonable prospect that
the unchecked adulteration of ankles of
food in this State are ended. The late
Legislature enacted a salutary law, per
haps not as complete as might be desired
but it can be amended as its operation
may show the necessity. A special from
Harrisburg says that the Deputy Attor
ney General has rendered an opinion
that all articles of food subject to in
spection must be distinctly marked so as
to give notice to the purchaser that it is
a mixture or a compound. The true
character of the article to be sold must
be revealed to avoid prosecution for
violation of the pure food law.
THE Supreme Court of this State, by
a decision by Justice Green, May to last,
in the case of Holden vs. Penn-ylvsm •
railroad company, unanimou .1 v decide'
that the abuse and insult of wit l :si *s y
counsel, or the abuse of witnjs-es or
litigants in arguments to the ju y, f- -
nish egal ground for an exc.-p.i» l < n
the record to be reviewed by the
Court. In this case, also, the Court n>t
only sustained the exception as based on
good legal grounds, but reversed the
judgment of the Court below distinctly
on the grounds as therein stated. This
decision is a good one, as the custom,
heretofore, in many Courts, has been to
allow the witnesses to be abused by coun
sel in a way not beneficial to common
decency. One would often think that
that the witness was on trial instead of
the prisoner or litigant.
FROM many points of view one of the
most remarkable celebrations in history
is to take place next year, when the
Kingdom of Hungary observe its
millennium as a State. For 1,000 years
the brave Magyars have maintained their
national existence, and they have accom
plished feats of which any nation might
be proud. The millenial celebration is
to last through the entire year, beginning
on January I, 1896, and ending oily 01
the following December 3i. It vII •> ■
divided into three parts, eac'i _• >.l 11 j
orating an epoch in the hi,' try ti t'.i
country. The celebration will rt ■ 1 vu 1
a session of the Fa: li.. :i n?
in the new hall at Budapest, wiiri i;
about completed at a cost of 16,>>>,»» >
florins. Next will come the op?iiin..j oi
the Pantheon in the capital city, w 1 :ti
nundreds of busts and statues of the na
tional heroes and eminent men and wo
men of the last thousand years will be
placed in Hungary's Valhalla. Thi« will
be followed by the inauguration of the
new Museum of Art and History, built at
a cost of 3,600,000 florins, the laying of
the cornerstones of two new bridges to
span the Danube at Budapest and the ded
ication of three other great public build
ings, the Palace of Justice, the Exhibi
tion Hall and Museum of Artistic Hand
work. Still further to indicate the begin
ning of a new era, in the spring two sec
tions of the older part of the city will be
remodelled on hygienic principles, and
500 new public schools throughout the
country will be opened.

A FEW days ago Miss Ada Benson, "f
St. Paul, Ky., was found sitting in a
chair, dead. On her lap lay a letter,
signed "Harry," which told the girl that
though he loved her best of all, he had
decided it was better for him to wed one
who had more money than she. The let
ter was polite, but it seems probable that
Han-y's heartless gall knocked the prx>r
maiden silly.

The Superior Court Act.
The supreme coart yesterday heard the
argument on the proceeding involving the
c>t t.tutionality of that clause of the act
creating the superior court which restricts
t .e voters to »i* out of the seven judges
tj be elected, and a decision will likely be
readered before the close of the week.
Mr. Stranahan, who appeared in support
of tbe validity of the act, called attention
to tbe fact that the pleading* did not ques
tion the right of tbe legislature to estab
lish this court and arrange its jurisdiction.
Toe necessity of tbe court is thns virtual!.*
concolad, and the validity of its establish
ment is not called in question. The argu
ment drawn from this was that if the legis
lature had the right to create the court it
surely had the power to direct tho method
of its appointment or election of judges,
unless prohibited by the Constitution. As
to the contention that the limitation plac
ed upon the voters was a denial of a con
stitutional right, tbe answer was that the
clauses cited applied to tho right to vote
and not to the method of voting—that the
legislature had the discretion to prescribe
the method, and its discretion was not a
subject of review, except in a case of plain
and clear abuse of power.
Mr. Olmstead, in support of the man
damus, ci'.ed the clauses upon which he
relied and the authorities which sustained
nja view of the law. He also quoted from
. it debates in the constitutional convei:-
i, >u on minority representation as exprei
- ve of the intention of the bocy in pro
acting ;he right of voters. The Con.-ti u
• i u. in providing for the limited vote f< r
j • rfei- of the supreme court only, had re
q i led all others to be elected without re
e rioiion. The argument based ou legisla
tive construction he held to be unsound.
The legislature has not. in a single in
stance, attempted to euforce limited vot
ing under ihe present Constitution, and
not a single authority can be ciled in sup
port of ibe right of the legidaturo to limit
the voting to six judges. Tne convention
rejected minority representation except as
to certain specified offices, and what it re
jected the legislature cannot en.'orce. The
simple question to be decided is, can tbe
ligislatare modify the Constitution*
The argument was heard by a very
large audience, mostly members of the
bar. Some remarks were made from the
bench which were construced as favorable
to the validity of the act, but such indica
tions are apt to be misleading at times.

The Campaign In Ma-yland.
rne Gubernational contest in Maryland
i. i i'-resting. A combination of Kepub
njt * iud Independent Democrats is m ik

» .rial and intolerant a political oli
ir«si« as ever misruled a State. Never
at State seen so earnest and vigorous

element of the Demoracy, insolent with
long held power, won and retained by the
most shameless and unblushing frauds
and oorrupt : on at elections, and profited
by at the expense of the taxpayers, led by
Senator Gorman himself, and the vast
army of appointive officeholders who hold
place through his will. The battle cry of
the first is ''Self Goverumeut and Econom
ical Administration." Senator G rin»n
has raised tt. e shout for his side, and it is
"No Negro Domination." The first re
echoes the sentiments of the thinking
voters of Maryland, regardlem of party.
The fact that the registration lists in
Maryland for 1894 showed 205,932 white
voters to 46,202 colored, proves the hol
lowness and desperation ol the second.
Tbe contest if not a partisan one. It
is being wag.d solely, so lar as the anfi-
Gorman side is concerned, on Stale and
local issue*. Tariff, finance, international
I iMstions are not discussed. Tbe over

On Saturday last, Juage Simonton of
Harrisburg decided .n favor of seven
judges in the case of Attorney General
WcCortnick against Secretary lteeder, an
application for a mandamus to compel the
Secretary to prepare the official ballot so
that the voter may have the right to vote
for seven oandidates tor Superior Court
Judge simonton gives his reasons at length,
and concludes that the claus'- in the act ol
Juae 24t,h, 1895, which restricts the right
of each elector to vote for more than six
candidate.-, is unconstitutional aud there
fore void.
Judge McPherson of name county also
filed an opinion in which he says that he
believes no constitutional rijfht ba l been
iuvadeil.and he would refuse the mandam
a*. But he had no with to enfo'Ofl his
personal opinion by a dissent, and prefers
th*t the conclusion reached by Judge
Simon ton should stand as the action of the
Court, and he therefore concurs formally

scarcely in a good slate of preservation.
The overshot wheel that once turned the
mill, is partly left. The great shaft, and
a few -<t the storng oak arms that held the
buckets, cling together, the gudgeons still
keepiug the big sjaft in its place at the

Alnrmed at the uncomfortable deata

He found his way into Butler county
where he started life as a miller,ultimateh
buying the old Neytnaa mill, which be

AMERICA A DUMPING GROUND.
Foreigner* Place Tlielr Pauper Made Goods
In the Market to the Detriment of the
American Laborer, and at a Kate That
wax Impossible I'nder the I'rovUlou*
of the McKinley Law.
Secretary Carlisle has had prepared for
himself a tabulated statement of the re
ceipts of the government for twelvemonths
each under the old law and under the pres
ent law. The month of August marked
the end of the first year of the new tariff,
and comparisons are now possible. The
tables are given Mow. It will be seen that
the revenues from customs under the new
law exceed those under the McKinley law
by over $35,000,000, and thM Shere is not a
month when the customs «oder the now
law did not exceed those for the corre
sponding month under the old law. That
means, of course, that the foreign manu
facturers. recognizing the advantages of
fered to them by the new tariff, have been
dumping their pauper made goods on the
American market to the detriment of the
American laborer at a rate that was im
possible under the provisioas of the Mc-
Kinley law.
The comparison betweon the receipts
from internal revenue tells a different
story, for the revenues under the new law
fall nearly $50,000,000 below those under
the McKinley law. Not a single month
under the new law did the receipts from
internal revenue approach the receipts for
the corresponding month under the old
law. This great decrease of revenue is as
cril>ed at the bureau of internal revenue
to dropping off of the whisky revenues. It
will be remembered that whilo the tariff
bill was before the senate Senator Voorhees,
chairman of the finance committee, was
the principal advocate of an increase of
twenty cents per gallon on whisky, and it
was his constant argument that every cent
the tax on whisky was increased would
bring an annual increase of a million dol
lars. The results have not borne out Mr.
Voorhees' roseate prediction. The reve
nues from internal revenue taxes, instead
of being increased by 120,000,000. are short
nearly $60,000,000, so that Mr. Voorhees is
about 1~0.000.000 wrong on his forecast. No
explanation is given at the Internal reve
nue bureau for the remarkable falling off
of the whisky revenues, It was known
that vast quantities of whisky had been
taken out of bond just before the new law
went into effect, which accounts for the
enormous revenues received during the
last two months under the McKinley law;
but it was the confident expectation of the
Internal revenue officers that after the first
six months the results of the increased
whisky tax would begin to show. The
failure of the revenues to increase led at
first to the suspicion that the increased
tax had resulted in an increase of illicit
distilling, but the reports from the dis
tricts where "moonshining" is the princi
pal industry failed to verify this theory.
The receipts from whisky are expected by
the internal officers to amount to $500,000
or more a day hereafter, but other officers
of the treasury predict that this figure will
not be realized, and that it will be six
months or more before the whisky receipts
return to normal figures.

Woolen Manufacturer®* I'roapects.
Th fi life °f 'be domestic worsted manu
facturer is in the balance. The woolen
manufacturer has not yot beeu sorlously
disturbed, except indirectly, as the foreign
worsteds displace the woolen goods, but lc
is credibly reported that the coming sea
son will find the foreign maker offering
wool goods in this market, and whilo his
prospects of success are not as good as on
worsteds it may lie set down as a certainty
that he will know beforehand pretty close
to what he can do. The foreign maker is
here today, through his representatives,
making preparations to gather in a share
of the woolen goods business. The domes
tic manufacturer who closes his eyes to
these conditions and rests confidently
upon his own strength may have cause to
repent ills blindness and overcoufldence.—

The cable letters from London tell how

To Wed Wales' Daughter.
LONDON, Oct. 14.—1t is reported here via
Paris that the Count of Turin, nephew of
the king of Italy, is soon coming to Eng

prince waa born Lu 1870.
OVER confidence is bad in any walk of
life, but it is especially fatal in politics
Take nothing for granted in Pennsylvania
this year.
TTIE strongest reason against Whitney
as the presidential candidate next year is
the fact that ho is the man res|K»usible for
Cleveland's nomination In 18W8.
IT IS gratifying to know that Chairman
Quay appreciates the work done for the
party by the rural press. There is no doubt
that It is one of the important factors in
evury ciuupulta.
TIIKIEB IS considerable good natural
rivalry regarding the banner Republican
county in the state Philadelphia, Lan
caster and Allegheny counties hope to
equal if they do not exceed their former
records.
INDIVIDUAL work counts for much in
politics, and it will mean a great deal in
Pennsylvania this year. Let every man
make It a point to urge his neighbors to
oome to the polls and tho total result will
be astonishing.
I A Tariff an Brap.
Spoaklug In IM2 in the house In favor of
an duty on hemp to keep out
foreign hemp and encourage our Kentucky
farmers. James Buchanan said that the
increased import duty on hemp demon
strated that "an additional duty was abso
lutely necessary to check Its further pro
gress, unless you wish to give the growers
of the article in Russia an exclusive mo
nopoly of our market in preference to our
own farmers. The additional duty Is mod
erate: It is no more than a protective duty
In favor of our own agriculture." There
was not a word said about placing duty on
agricultural products for revenue nor for
" rovenuo only." Quite the reverse.
The; Are Not In It.
The Wilson free trade tariff bill proving,
contrary to Democratic expectations, m
dead failure as a revenue getter, the
Democracy are now looking about for
some American industry to tax for revenue.
They are talking an increased tax of tl on
beer. The McKinley bill lowered the tax
on tobacco from 8 to 6 cents per pound.
The burgullians want to restore the tax
to 8 cents. But unfortunately for the
free traders the Republicans have a major
ity in the lower house of congress, who
are in favcr of levying a tax for revenue,
not on Americans, but upon foreign manu
facturers. See?— Portsmouth (O.) Blade.
THIS will be a short political campaign.
The two parties have just nominated their
candidates and the election is less than a
month off. Protests have frequently been
made against long campaigns. Here, then,
Is an opportunity to try one of the shorter
sort. There is no doubt that the time is
sufficiently long for the doing of all the
necessary work. And that is all that is
requisite.
THE treasury officials are devoutly pray
ing that the price of sugar may advance so
that they may collect more money upon
| its importation on the ad valorem basis.
An increase of a fraction of a cent would
mean millions to the government. Under
a Republican tariff sugar was free, and
that portion of the workingman's break
i fast table was untaxed. And the Repub
| llcan tariff raised money enough to run
! the government.
WK observe with satisfaction that the
protectionist journals of the entire country
combine to defend the national policy of
encouragement to home industries with
ability and success. Their arguments are
up to date, and deal with new phases of
the question. The welfare of the whole
country, and especially of the wage earn
ers, Is an Inspiring theme and merits the
ability with which the subject is discussed
in connection with the tariff.
THE gold beaters of Chicago, New York
and Philadelphia are unable to see where
the Democratic tariff has helped them.
W hen it went into effect they were getting
sl3 a week or $0.50 a beating of 500 leaves
on piece work. Since then wages have de
clined to $7.50 a week and $3.5<) a beating.
Now they are on strike for $lO a week and
$5 a beating, and will think themselves
lucky if they win. These gold b aters are
not the only artisans beaten by tho Demo
cratic tariff.
THE wool growers of Montana propose
to go to congress next winter and demand
a protective tariff on woof. As the house
will lie Republican they will be heard, and
if tho Republican party controlled the
White House they would get what they
wanted. But It is strange that these
Montana wool growers don't know their
own Interests. The Democratic statesmen
have been telling them that free wool was
the bant thing in the world for them, and
yet they can't see it. If they are not care
ful the Democratic sheets will bo calling
them political wool growers.
THE campaign of local candidates for
tho county offices this year Is very much
as other years. The Democrats have adopt
ed a new scheme, however, and it is one
that they have been very cleverly cultl
vatlng in every district of tho county. It
is to admit the overwhelming Republican
majority, and that they havo no show of
electing anyone on the ticket. Therefore,
upon personal grounds—as the case may
be—they ask this Republican or that Re
publican simply for a complimentary vote.
If Republicans yield to this mode of cut
ting candidates on their own ticket, they
may greatly endanger its success, and that
is all there is in it for the Democratic
ticket. If it results in the election of any
one of the Democratic candidates they will
only laugh in their slaves at you for being
so foolish as to ca«t your vote as a compli
ment. No good Republican will be caught
by this scheme. Vote tho straight ticket
and there will be no chance for exultation
at your expense.
The total Itrpubllran vote in Pennsyl

of 30 prr cent. Thl» utoutd not be. Ou
