AT Paris the American and Spanish
peace commission closed their first twe
weeks of labor last Saturday, and tht
progress made has been chiefly by
negative action and the attitude of the
Americans.
The first section of the protocol pro
vided that "Spain will relinquish all
claim of sovereignty over and title tc
Cuba." Naturally the first sessions
were devoted to the Cuban article of
the protocol. Naturally, too, th<
Americans opened their case by tht
assumption that little or no action was
necessary regarding Cuba, on th*
ground that its disposition was defi
nately fixed by the terms of the proto
col.
Notwithstanding, at the meeting last
Thursday, the Spaniards submitted
suggestions and propositions amounting
to holding that the United States
should take over all or par* of the
Cuban debt. After reading this pre
sentment in English, on Tuesday,Senor
Montero of the Spanish commission
verbally repeated it at length and
reiterated the same in summarized
form, but the American Commission
ere in a lengthy and formal answer re
fused to have anything to do with the
Cuban debt.
WASHINGTON.
The Government industrial commis
sion held two sessions at the capitol
Tuesday and decided to adjourn until
November 15, when active woik will
begin. The commission organized by
electing Senator Kyle chairman, ex
_ Representative Phillips, of Pennsyl
vania, first vice chairman, and Repre
sentative Gardner, chairman of the
House committee on labor, second vice
chairman. There was a strong fight on
the secretaryship, and the election was
deferred until November. It was de
cided to establish headquarters at the
minii hnildinir fflcincr the caDltol.
DiiSo DUiiainß, iaciiig iue uopiwt.
A dispatch from Washington dated
Tuesday said that it has been finally
decided that the Fifteenth Pennsyl
yania, Colonel Kreps commanding, will
be mustered out of the service. This
comes largely of a determination of the
War Department to reverse the recent
order mustering out the Second Regi
ment, it having been decided to retain
the Second in the service. Opportunity
was left for the dismissal of another
regiment, and at the urgent entreaty of
persons of influence from the Western
part of the State the Fifteenth was
made the lucky number.
DURING President McKinley's trip
through the West last week he made
several speeches. At Chariton,la..his re
marks were particularly significant. He
said: "We have been very fortunate
as a Nation in the last six months. We
have made much progress in a very
little while.
L - "We have almost lost sight of the
fact, in talking about war, that we
have made some very substantial gains
without resort of arms. We have the
people of Hawaii, who came to us free
and independent and asked to be annex
ed to the United States.
"And, my fellow-citizens, wherever
oar flag floats, wherever we raise that
standard of liberty, it is always for the
sake of humanity and the advancement
of civilization. Territory sometimes
comes to us when we go to war in holy
cause, and, whenever it does, the ban
ner of liberty will float over it. and
bring, I trust, blessings and benefits to
to all of the people."
Porto Kico U. S. A.
On Tuesday the flag of our Union was
raised over tho public buildings at San
Juan, the capital of Porto Rico, and the
United States is now formally in pos
session of the Island as sovereign. The
War Department received the follow
ing:
San Juan, Porto Rico, Oct. 18.
Secretory of War, Washington D. C.;
Flags have been raised 011 public
buildings and forts in this city and sa
luted with national salutes. The occu
pation cf the island is now complete.
BKOOKE.
A copy of General Brooke's dispatch
was sent to the President at Chicago
immediately upon its receipt.
ALL the Spanish troops were expect
ed to be out of Porto Rico by Tuesday of
this week, when the United States
would take final posession. In Cuba
the meeting of the Cuban assembly is
fixed for October 20 at Santa Cruz but
owing to lack of transportation facili
ties, the members of the assembly will
be unable to arrive at Santa Cruz on
time, and the end of the month prob
ably will have couie before the election
of a president and cabinet takes jtlHce.
POLITICAL.
At Harrisburg last Thursday Judge
Simonton decided that both certificates
of John S. Robb's nomination for Judge
of C. P. No. a, Allegheny Co. were il
legal. The next legislature will prob
ably make some radical changes in the
Baker Ballot law.
TITE CO WING ELECTION.
We are now approaching another
general election when the people will
have to decide whether the Republican
party will be upheld in its administra
tion of onr affairs, or whether the Dem
erratic party shall be given encourage
ment for the future It is amusing to
see the Democratic candidates again
trying to hoodwink the people of the
State by the spec ions cry of reform j
continually thrown ont by their candi t
date for governor and the little satellites .
that follow in his orbit. The people
ivill not forget that G rover Cleveland
ind his crowd kept np the cry of "re
:orm, reform, the country is going to
he demnition bow wows and there
nnst be reform.'" tosnrh an extent that
i great many well meaning people lie
ran to think'there must 1m something
wrong, and we wiil "vote for a change.
Grover Cleveland was elected and with
lim a Democratic House and Senate, so
that they had full control of the gov
ernment. able to carry out their ideas
:f economic questions, which consisted
>f "free trade" —or turning our own
jeople out of work and opening onr
uarkets to the manufactures of the old
world. After a long wrangle in the
Bouse an.i Senate the Wilson bill was
inally passed and sent to (trover Cleve
and. who refused to sign it. because it
lid not hit onr industries hard enough,
but let it became a law without his
denature, at the same time denouncing
it as an act of "perfidy and dishonor
,n the part of his party friends. \\ e
ill well remember the train of evils that
followed the election of Cleveland and
Sis partv to power, and the passing ot
rhe Wilson bill. The industries of our
wintry from one end to the other were
paralyzed: our iron mills, woolen mills
•otton mills, silk mills, glass works, and
ill other manufacturing industries were
>ither shut down altogether, or com
jelled to reduce the wages of their
employes and run shorter time. The
-ailroads all oyer the country were
without traffic, and ou the main lines of
he loads of the country could be seen,
is the traveler passed along, miles and
niles of siding filled with empty, idle
•ars; no ore, nor coal, nor freight to
lanl. which in turn threw thousands
ipon thousands of people ont of em
doyment and sent them out into the
world begging for work to do to get
iread for themselves and families. Ihe
■esult was that in all our principal cities
md manufacturing centers, "soup
louses'' -a purely Democratic institu
ion that had not been known 111 our
•onntrv for over thirty years, or since
he last Democratic administration
vent ont of power—had to be opened
0 keep thousands of people from starv
ng. In our own Pittsburg thousands
>f men were glad of a chance to work
vith pick and shovel in the parks at a
lollar and a quarter per day, who in
he mills and factories of the city had
ieen getting their two and a half to
our dollars per day. but unfortunately
iad not laid up any for a "rainy day.
The farmers of our country fared al
uost equally as bad. The prices for his
.roducts fell to a very low figure be
■ause so many wage earners were out
>f employment and had no money with
which to buy. Wheat went away
lown, wool lower than it had been for
1 generation, sheep worth three dollars
>er head would only bring from seven
y five cents to a dollar, and everything
'lse in proportion. We could go on and
■numerate many more items by way of
llustration but the bitter memory of
he recent past is only too fresh in the
nind of every one bo need more. But
he Democratic leaders say "there are
10 National issues this year, nothing
mt local and state issues" and in their
isnal way, try to deceive the unthink
ng and unwary into voting the Demo
cratic ticket.
The Democrats are very anxious to
r e t into power. They make great
iromises—very plausible in their way
mt once they get the reins promises
ind all else go to the winds. "W hen
he devil was sick th," devil a saint
would be, but when the devil got well
;he devil a saint was he" —an
)ld and trite saying will apply
,-ery forcibly to the Demo
cratic party. " When in control of
he government they have always taken
he coarse and followed the policy that
was against the industries of our conn
;ry and why should Republicans be m
luced to listen to their siren songs. Our
candidates for the State offices are all
staunch Republicans. Our nominee for
Congress, Hon. J. B. Showalter, with
lis past experience, will be better able
jo serve the people, and avoid any short
•oiuing that might be charged to inex
perience. On all national questions he
would vote right and support McKin
ey's administration, white a Dpijjocrat
would vote the other way. Our candi
lates for the Legislature. Hon. James
Si. Moore and Hon. .lohn Dindinger.
lave b«en tried and found faithful to
he interests of the people; no matter
what evil disposed and designing men
ried to induce them to do. Our candi

or County Surveyor, Mr. Mc<jwistiQn.
i young and clever man, is now filling

The safe thing for Republicans to do
s to vote the straight ticket.
THE Blinois coal operators are trying
to put the blame of the Virden tragedy

the Commission only settle- tho ques

debt, etc., rightly and for all time. Our
personal opinion is that the I nited
states wiH be very much the gainer it
she lets the thousand islands with their
millions of heathen inhabitants entirely
alone. Also that this country should
not pay the debt that Spain contract* d
with Cuba as security.
While our Commissioners are enjoy

ceased at the first of August, why were

til the Commission completes its
labors? What use has Uncle Sam for
them in camp'.' What good are they
doitig there'i They could be called to
gether again j ust as easily from their
homes, and it would be treating them
infinitely more like human being* to
send them there. They are the best of
our young men. They sacrificed home,
and everything to volunteer last spring.
If the war is over let ttie volunteers
come home. If not over let them be at
least fnrloughed and allowed to live
with their families and friends until
further need. E- If- N.
