No Nomination.
On Thursday last the Court of Dauphin
county, to which contested nominations
are by law referred, decided that the Re
publicans of the 41st Senatorial district of
Penn'a., (Bntler and Armstrong counties)
bad made no legal nomination for State
Senate.
Judge Simonton, by whom the decision
was written, says there is nothing in the
case that would warrant a decision that
J ere B. Rex, who went into the confer
lence by direction of State Chairman Elk
in as a conferee and voted for Meredith,
was a legal member. It is not claimed
or pretended that there is any written
rule which authorized the state central
committee or its chairman to appoint him
a member ' But it was argued that there
was a custom which authorized it and a
necessity which warranted it.
"There is no way of testing the right
claimed prior to the passage of the bal
lot act," adds Judge Simonton. "A can
didate or faction who felt aggrieved by
such intervention, was obliged to choose
between acquiescence or the risk of being
charged with disloyalty to the party and
of receving the penalty of disloyalty.
Tbe instances since the passage of the
act have been entirely too few, or too dif
ferent in their circumstances, to crystal
ize into an unwritten rule.
"There can be no doubt that some
remedy for the existing state
of affairs ought speedily to be
sought and applied. The machinery at
present in use for making congressional
and senatorial nominations has in many
cases broken down completely when set
in motion. The influence of local and
county pride and jealousies tends strong
ly to prevent agreement. And the evils
of the system are greatly aggravated by
the rule which authorizes candidates to
select the conferrees. Natural
ly, they select their personal friends, and
they, after being selected, consider them
selves the agents and representatives of
the candidates who select them, rather
than of the party. In consequence of
this their minds are not open to impartial
consideration of the merits and availabil
ity of the respective candidates, or to im
partially weighing the interests of the
party to which they belong.
"It is not for us to prescribe a remedy
for the difficulty. We can only empha
size the fact of its existence, which has
beeu pressed upon our attention in these
contests over nominations. But we ven
ture to express the hope that the organi
zations, whatever they may be, which
have authority to do so, may revise the
rules of the respective parties, so that
after reasonable discussion of the merits
and test of strength o! the several candi
dates, nominations may be assured. It
is probably too much to expect that the
smaller counties will agree on any meth
od of nomination which wou'd tend to
lessen their relative weight in a confer
ence, and it would, therefore, seem advis
able for the representatives of the respec
tive parties assembled in state conven
tion to make the necessary changes in
the party rules."
During a talk between W. A. Stone,
W. M. Kennedy, W. A. Graham and F.
J. Torrance in the latter's parlor in Alle
gheny last Sunday afternoon, as reported
in the Commercial Gazette of Monday:
"Col. Stone was ask if it was not true
that Senator Quay intended going to
Harrisburg at the opening of the session
and remaining there until the reform leg
islation was passed or defeated. He said
that he presumed Senator Q»ay would do
so as he was great'y interested in put
ting through these measures."
"It was along about this time that'some
one wanted to know who would succeed
Cameron in the senate. Eyes were turn
ed on Col. Stone, and he said. "I do not
know who that man will be, but I think
if there are enough members in the leg
islature to pass the reform legislation in
which Quay is interested, there will be
enough votes to elect a United States
senator friendly to Mr. Quay. Who that
man will be I cannot say. ' I am confi
dent, however, that the members of the
next house and senate will divide upon
the United States senatorship in just the
same way that tbey will vole 011 the re
form legislation." *
By reference to the Genera! Election
Proclamation it will be seen that several
changes have made in the places for
holding elections. For instance the
East and West precincts of Fairview twp.
were consolidated last June, and will
vote at the election house built on the
Riddle farm.
THE BALLOTS.
Judges Simonton and McPherson, of j
Dauphin county worked hard last week
and settled all the election contests.
They made their final decisions Monday,
and the only one of local interest—after
the the Ritter—Meredith affair —is that
invalidating the "Crow Anti-Combine
ticket, taking it off the official ballot,
though the "McKinley Citizens ', the
other ticket growing out of the
Philadelphia factional fights is left on
because objections to it were not filed in
time. . , .„
The official ballot for this county will
contain twelve columns —one headed Re
publican. one Democratic; Prohibition,
People's, Socialist Labor, National, Free
Silver, McKinley Citizens, Jeffersonian,
Citizens (Ritter's); Independent (Mere
dith's) and a blank column.
The Republicans of the county can
make a cross (X) in the circle over their
ticket, and then turn to Ritter's column
and either mark in the circle over or
square opposite his name; or they can
mark an X in the black square opposite
the names of McKinley and Hobart,
which will vote all their electors, and
then mark opposite each name on the
state and county tickets they wish to
vote for. The ballots will be about a
yard square, they are being printed in
Oil City, they must be here tor distrib
ution by Friday of next week; and after
the election is over some of the ballot
boxes will be full—stuffed, so astospeat
The County Commissioners have ordered
22,000 official and 5,000 specimen ballots,
for a registration of have also
ordered voting outfits for the new elec
tion election districts.
The Democratic column, as usual in
this state comes second on the ballot.
The Prohibs have a choice of two
brands of their article this year as repre
sented in the third and sixth columns and
both have local tickets in this county.
The Peoples and Socialist Labor ballots
have no local tickets—Some endorsing was
done in this county but it was not certi
fied to our county Commisioners.
The "Free Sliver" electors are the
same as the Democratic, but differently
arranged.
The old style or Jeffersonian Demo
crats, will vote the electors under tlie
names of Palmer and Bucker, but in
their list of electors, we see the name of
James Bredin, who has publicly announc
ed that he intends voting for McKinley.
A SIGNIFICANT fact is the statement
made by some of the silver Senators,
that "in event of McKinley's election"
they will let a tariff bill pass and will not
hinder its passage by insisting on a free
coinage amendmeut to it; that they will
acknowledge McKinley's election as a
triumph for the protective tariff policy
and as proof that the people are in favor
of dealing with the tariff question first.
Toe Boom in Wheat.
The great activity in the grain market
comes very opportunely, as it shows how
little silver has to do with the rise or
fall in the price of cereals. Much of the
doubt that exists in the minds of the
farmers will be cleared away if he will
consider the situation and learn what it
is that has caused prices to advance all
around, and on flour in particular, the
prices of which are actually advanced as
much as sixty five cents a b-irrel. Re
duced to a single proposition, it is the
simple law of supply and demand which
is operating now, and would operate the
same under any conditions. England,
which always prefers to buy its wheat in
India and Argentine, is forced by reason
of drought in those places to buy here,
which she is doing in large quantities,
and as our supply grows short prices
naturally advance. So we see that the
supply of wheat being much shorter than
usual, the demand for it is greater, and
with the increased demand comes in
creased prices. Now if the crop of Rus
sia, India, and Argentine had not fallen
short, the English consumers would have
secured their wheat from the usual
sources, and the present boom in our
markets wouldn't have occured. The
law of supply and demand would have
ojverated there as it operates in tae pres
ent case. Silver has nothing to do with
it. The demand for wheat fixes the price
paid for it, and that is all there is to it.
THAT man Hanna must be a wonderful
man! Democratic papers say he advanced
the price of wheat for political purposes.
However, farmers should be pleased to
have such a wonderful man in the Rep
ublican ranks. Certainly history can't
tell of a Democrat who did the same
thing.
THERE are some strauge names on the
official ballot this year. In the Socialist
Labor column we find Micali Bojan and
Simmon Segal; in the National, J. Acker
Gussand Davis Yarnall, and in the Prohi
bition Silas C. Swallow and John Sing
master.

FACTS M WAGES.
Prices Paid to Labor in Coun
tries On a Gold Basis.
There are three things that always in
terest the laboring men, says the Jeannette
Dispatch. First, good wages; second,
steady employment; third, the best money
In circulation. In answer to the free silver
argument we beg lsjve to quote the prices
paid to labor in a few trades in countries
on a gold basis and the same labor also in
countries on a silver bagig. Tho statistics
are taken from The World Almanac for
1896, and the same can be found in the re
port of the United States census:
Bricklayers are paid per week in the
gold basis countries as follows: New
South Wales, ?16.82; "Victoria, $14.60: Bra
zil, *7.90; Belgium, $4.58; Denmark, $7;
France, $7.Si; Germany, $4.31; England,
$7.58; Scotland, $7 58; United States,
$21.18, and Ontaria, $lB. In the following
countries on a silver basis the wages for
bricklayers are: Austria,|s3.sS (in 18.84);
Quito, $1.44; Russia, $4.21; Mexico, $10;
Venezuela, $9; Japan, $2.40. As the silver
money in each of these countries is worth
only about 50 per cent, of the value of
gold the reader can judge for himself
whether or not a free silver basis is con
ducive of high wages. This is but one ex
ample of the various employments taken
to s how the relative wages paid.
Now consider tho second question of
fteady employment. The cry four years
ago was, givo us a chance at the markets
of the world and we will give steady em
ployment to our laboring men. Has such
been the case? Is not the same tariff
policy to be pursued by the Democratic
party? It seems from the hard times of
the last four years the markets of the
world have gotten a chance at us. With
more depositors in the banks than ever
before in the history of our country, does
It go to show that hard times is brought
about by the scarcity of money?
The argument that scarcity of money
never brought about good times is cer
tainly true, but the opposite is equally
true that good times never brought about
a scarcity of money. If the money of our
country today was put into circulation
and not hoarded up through fear there
would be no talk about scarcity of money.
As to the third question, the dollar of to
day is equally good among all classes. No
one would ask for anything more. Its
parity is never questioned. Then why re
sort to experiment, as the people did four
years ago'/ The voters of this country will
listen no furthor to thoory; they want
facts.
SILVER DOWN—WHEAT UP.
An Interesting Little I'act That Should
Not be Forgotten.
The recent sharp advance in wheat co
incident with a fall in silver is quite in
line with the experionco of the last month
and annihilates the theory that the price
of silver is inseparably linked with the
prices of farm products.
Government assay bars fell to sixty-five
and a half cents an ounce. At this prioe
tho bullion value of the silver in a stand
ard dollar is fifty and a half cents, so that
if the advocates of free coinage were suc
cessful we would have a dollar worth
about fifty cents.
Every claim made by the silverites has
been promptly refuted by the event. They
pleaded for the passage of the Sherman
law, asserting that the government's pur
chase of nearly 200 tons a month under
that law—practically the entire product of
this country —would advance the price of
silver so that ounces would be
equal to an ounce of gold. In other words,
they said it would sell at $1.89 an ounce.
When the law passed and purchases un
der it began silver was SI.OB an ounce.
After more than three years of steady gov
ernment buying when the law was re
pealed silver was seventy cents! Recently
tho free coinage advocates have been as
suring tho farmers that their wheat would
continue to fall unless silver could be ad
vanced. What is the fact? Silver goes
down because the demand is not equal to
the supply, and wheat advances because
the demand exceeds the supply. The
farmer must see that the prices of his pro
ducts arc not dependent upon tho fluctua
tions of silver, but upon the same natural
laws that govern all other commodities.—
N. Y. Herald.
PRODUCTION OF SILVER.
The Auiount Brought Forth Since the
Crime of *73.
Since silver was "struck down by the
crime of 1873" the mines of the United
States alone have produced 939,576,000
ounces.
The commercial value of the enormous
yield, reckoned at the average price for
each year, was 1913,083,000.
The coining value of the total product
at the existing ratio was $1,214,761,000. So
that if permitted to enjoy free coinage the
inine owners would have made an "addi
tional profit," as the circular of their
"finance committee" truly put it, of $271,-
168,000. They would have made an "addi
tional profit" of $38,000,000 on the yield of
1894, and of $36,000,000 on the yield of 1896.
No wonder Mr. Merrill thought they
"could afford not to give" tho "ad
ditional profit they would receive for
their own silver product for one month"
to help elect a, free coinage president.—N.
Y. World.
IF the mints of this country were to coin
all the silver in the world Into dollars to
morrow not a single wheel in a single mill
In the United States would begin to turn
again, not a single unemployed operative
would find a day's work, not a single farm
er would find a new customer in the homo
market for his product. But if it were
known that American goods would not be
driven out of the American market by com
petitive products made abroad by cheap
labor; if it were known that the product
of American mills and factories could be
disposed of in 1897 as it was disposed of in
1891 and 1893, then, within the time that it
would take the holders of idle American
capital to put that capital into active op
sration again, one million American wage
earners would resume work and the wage
payments of this country would be in
creased to their old figures or to still
higher figures. Dollars do not make busi
ness and work. Business and work make
dollars.

••As long as gold, either from its
Intrinsic superiority us a metal, from
its rarity, or from the prejudices of
mankind, retains so considerable a
pre-eminence in value over silver as
it has hitherto had, a natural conse

condition will be more stationary.
The revolutions, therefore, which may
take place in the comparative value
of gold and sliver will be changes in
the state of the latter rather than in
that of the former.'* Alexander

Subfccribe tor the CITIZEN,
PII.VXR must be a legal tender to g*r# It !
value. nnd that means to rob all creditors
of one-half tholr just due. This is the
temptation the demagogues hold out to
catch votes, but tho people of this repub
lic will scorn such a method of escaping
honest obligation*.
Orit government attempted the absur
dity of making silver the equal of gold
notwithstanding the ohnnge in the situa
tion, upon the principle that a government
could create money, but the effort was a
complete failure. For years the United
States treasury purchased silver at the
rate of millions of dollars per month to
accomplish this object, but the money of
the taxpayers was wasted in t>" vain at
tempt.
OCR present dollar has appreciated, say
the silver men; it will buy too much. Do
the men whose wages are paid in these
dollars believe this? Are they dissatisfied -
because the gold standard money in which
they are paid will buy more flour and
potatoes, beafsteak and clothing than the
same number of dollars would twenty
years ago? The silver people tell them
they ought to be dissatisfied. If so, and
if the wage earner really wants a dollar ot
less purchasing power than he gets at
present, he should vote for Bryan.
MEXICAN silvor dollars can be bought la
our market today for a little less than th*
bullion value of the silver they oontain.
There has been recently a oartoln de
mand for them here at their bullion value
for use as object lessons In paying wages,
etc., and in response to that demand con
siderable quantities were imported from
Mexico. The demand having ceased the
supply is in excess, and the price of the
coin declines. The fluctuation in market
value cannot possibly occur with gold
coin, and that is one reason why gold is a
better metal than silver to serve as a
standard of value.—Phila. Evening Tele
graph.
MEXICO is on a silver basis, yet it has to
pay its foreign debt in gold, the total debt
being $111,000,000. Minister Limantour,
in his budget for next year, calls for an
appropriation of $12,000,000 in silver, that
amount lieing necessary to obtain 96,000,-
000 in gold required for the interest. It
will thus bo seen that while Mexico Is on
a silver basis at home she is on a gold basis
abroad. She cau pay the Mexican wage
earnor in silver dollars, but the foreign
bondholder must have gold. How muoh
better it would be to have the gold stand
ard at homo as well as abroad, so that the
dollar of the laborer would be just as good
as that of tho foreign bondholder. The
best dollar made is nono too good for tho
man who earns it.
(COMMUNICATED.)
Headquarters Republican Executive
Committee of Armstrong County.
KITTASHING, PA., OCT. 21ST, 1896.
A. B. C. MCFARLAND, ESQ.,
Chairman Rep. Ex. Com , Butler, Pa.
DEAR SIR:—
Permit me to say to you and through you
to the Republican voters of your county
that the Republicans of Armstrong county
will duly appreciate your assistance in the
effort, now being made to elect a Republi
can Senator in this district.
You are aware ot the deadlock that ex
isted in the senatorial conference of this
district and the attempt made by the state
committee to relieve the conference of its
embarassing position. The court held
that, in the absence of a rule, precedent
was not. sufficient to control the case.
This method failing, the only method left
open to tne Republicans of the district
was to use nomination papers; this the
Republicans of the district have done; and
thus W. B. Meredith is the Republican
nominee oi' the district and is by precedent
the on/i/ Republican candidate in the dis
trict.
It is well to recall the fact that in 1880,
the friends of our then Senator Greer (now
Judge) sought to renominate him for *
second term. Armstrong county natural
ly insisted lor a local candidate. Tons a
deadlock ensued, just like the conditions
of the present year The State Committee
tent an umpire contrary to onr wishes and
against our protest. The umpire entered
t"io conference and renominated Senator
Greer. The Republicans of Armstrong
county declined to carry the contention
auy further; they turned in and gave Sen
ator Greer a he.-jrty support and were al
ways pleased to know that he served his
constituency faithfully ucd well foi
another four years, giving him a contin
uous term ol eight years.
Now "the shoe is on the other foot."
We, therefore, now appeal to our Repub
lican friends in Butler county to turn in
with equal un mitnity for the choice of
Armstrong county. We expect to give
Senator Meredith and the whole Republi
can ticket at least twenty-five hundred
majority iu this county. We hope there
wili he no county line drawn in our dis
trict, but that Mr. Meredith will receivo a
loyal support at the hands of the Ranubli
cans of your county.
Trusting that this communication will
be received in the fraternal spirit in which
it is written, I am yours truly,
D. B, LLELKEB,
Chairman Rep. Ex. Com.,
Armstrong County.
The above communication reached ns
shortly before noon today, and is printed
as a matter of business at the request of
Mr Meredith. It will probably be answered
next week.
