Christmas.
"On earth, peace, goodwill to men
This is the burden of the song that was
heard in the starry midrieht sky of
Judea nearlv two thousand yea res ago
by the shepherds of Bethlehem; the
song that today is heard from countless
voices in the village churches or vast
cathedrals, the song that sets to music
every chord in the heart of humanity
and that for the time being makes all
the world akin. There is no time in
our daily life that bears with it sweeter
or more gracious influences than
Christmas does. They have a wide and
magic sweep, they permeate all hearts
no matter how seared or how hardened
some of them may be, and the time is
one that is essentially expensive of hu
manitv. The skiee on that day may
not be of sapphire blue;the earth and air
may not be bathed in mellow sunshine:
and yet the day is illuminated with
"the light that never was on sea or
■bore," the vast reservoir of warmth
and of kindness that lies in almost
every human heart is, for the time be
ing. unlocked by the magic key of the
sorcerer whom we call Sympathy, the
world is flooded with gracious and with
kindly deeds, and each one of us re
enters the enchanted realm of child
hood.
And this is because it is a birth day
which Christendom celebrates while
even those of alien faiths grasp the
thought of a deliverer, who came to
man; of one who was touched with the
feeling of our common infirmities; who
went through the world doing good,
who entered into the spirit of the life
around him; who came, according to
the flesh, out of the heart of toiling and
suffering humanity, and who showed
his true kinglineas. not by putting men
under foot, but by taking his place
among them, the brother of eyen the
Eg lowliest.
► There is no myth, however poetic;
no legend, however beautiful, no dream
of the poet or painter, however rich
and glorious, that ever shaped or fash ;on
ed a sweeter or more simple story than
that of the Babe of Bethlehem. It is
ideal in its beauty and its tenderness.
AT Tuskegee, Ala. last Friday, Pres
ident McKinley and party were met at
the station by the Mayor and Town
Council and driven to the school, 'here
a reception was held and speeches
made. That evening at Montgomery,
the first capital of the Confederacy. At
lanta's welcome was outdone, and Mc-
Kinley made a great speech during
which he said.
"The warm heart-welcome which has
been given to me by the citizens of Ala
bama has deeply touched me, and in re
turn for it I cannot find language to ex
press my gratitude and appreciation
To be welcomed here in the city of
Montgomery, the first capital of the
Confederate States, warmly and en
thnsiaetically welcomed as the Presi
dent of a common country, has filled
and thrilled me with emotion. Once
the capital of the Confederacy, new the
capital of a great and glorious State,
one of the indestructible States of an
indestructible Union. The Governor
■sjs that he has nothing to take back.
We have nothing to take back for hav
ing kept you in the Union. We are
glad you didn't go out and yon are
glad yon stayed in. Alabama, like all
name and American honor.
"Tbere never has been in the history
of the United States such a demonstra
tion of that patriotism from one end of
this country to the other as in tbe year
jnst passing, and never has American
valor been more brilliantly illustrated
in the battle line on shore and on tbe
battleship at sea than by the soldiers
and sailors of the United States.
Everybody is talking of Hobson, and
jnstly so, but I want to thank Mother
Hobson in this presence. Everybody
is talking about Gen. Wheeler, one of
the bravest of the brave, but I want to
•peak of that sweet little daughter that
followed him to Santiago [great ap
platues], and ministered to the sick
soldiers at Montauk, [Cheers, j
"I like tbe feeling of the A merican
people that we ought not to have a
large standing army, but it has been
demonstrated in the last few months
that we need the standing army large
enough to do nil the work required
while we are at peace, and only rely
upon the great body of tbe people in an
emergency to help us fight our battles.
[Applause. ] We love peace. We are
not a military nation, but whenever the
time of peril comes the bulwark of
this people rests on the patriotism of
its citizens and this nation will be safe
for all times, because 75,000,000 of peo
ple love it and will give up their lives
to sustain and uphold it. (Great ap
plause). I thank yon, my fellow citi
zens, for this generous warmth and
wealth of welcome which yon have
given me to-day, and I shall go back to
m> duties at our great capital feeling
that once for all we have a united coun
try that acknowledges allegiance to but
one authority and will march .forever
unitedly under one flag, the glorias old
Stars and Stripes ''
Gen. Wheeler, Gen. Shafter, Gen.
Law ton, Secretary Alger, Secretary
Long and Secretary Gage talked briefly.
Secretary Long paid a tribute to former
Secretary Hilary A. Herbert, and said
that the results achieved by the navy
this year were not due to the work of
any one man but to the work of many
for the past twenty years.
WASHINGTON'.
Naval Constructor Richmond P. Hob
son's kissing tonr has aroused much ad
verse comment in naval circles at
Washington The department is not
in a position to take action to prevent
exhibitions of maudlin sentiment such
as have occurred since the lieutenant
returned from Santiago de Cuba, but
tbe time will soon come when Mr.
Hobson will be ont of the country and
under the command of Rear Admiral
Dewey, who, it may be supposed, will
not permit any violation of the iron dis
cipline maintained on tbe ships attach
ed to the Asiatic squadron
Yesterday ihe President nominated
and the Senate oonfirmed Ethan Allen
Hitchcock to be Secretary of the Inter

MONDAY, Lieut. Hobson of Merrtmac
fame, kissed nearly 800 women and
more than 700 on Tuesday while on his
way from Topeka Kan., to Chicago.

tiraliam'a Answer.
The legal answer of District Attorney I I
Graham of Philadelphia Co. to the peti «
tion of Senator Quay, his son. Richard (
R Quay, and ei State Treasurer Ben ,
jamin J. Haywood filed with the State 1
Supreme Court, and asking for the re ]
moval to that tribunal of the case, al
leging conspiracy against them in con- ]
nation with the Peoples Bank, was filed I
with the Prothonotary of the same court '
Monday. . 1
District Attorney Graham s reply i- e a
plain, open and specific answer to the ;
petition of the defendants. Mr. Graham
first says the indictments are based up- (
on lawful affidavits and a return made ,
by a Magistrate after a hearing of the
evidence. He denies that the indict
ment against ex-State Treasurer Hay
wood is inproperly fonnd. The inno
cence of crime on the part of the de
fendants. the answer asserts, is a mat
ter for a jury to decide.
The appeal to the Supreme Court to
review the demurrers filed against the
indictments an 4 overruled by the lower
court Mr Graham regards as a gross
reflection upon the integrity of the
Judges of the courts of that city, which
is unwarranted.
Mr. Graham asserts the regularity of
the proceedings in the case, and adds
that the prosocution does not depend
upon verbal testimony, but upon writ
ten evidence created by the defendants
themselves. He charges that the pub
lie funds of the Slate have for years
been used by the defendants for their
private and unlawful gain. He avers
that the books of the bank show that
hundreds of thousands of dollars of th e
public money deposited in the Peoples
Bank were set apart for and used by
Senator Quay, and that stocks were
bought for him with this money.
To the allegation of political conspir
acy in the instigation of the charges,
the District Attorney makes emphatic
denial. Twice he refers to ex-Judge
James Gay Gordon, and declares that
the prosecution was not instigated by
ex-Judge James Gordon, nor by other
opened or avowed political enemies of
Senator Quay for its prejudicial influ
ence upon the voters at the November
election; nor was there any conspiracy,
he says, to affect the same influence up
onjthe State legislature in their choice
of a United States Senator to succeed
Senator Quay.
Mr. Graham comments in his answer
upon the regular assignments of judges
who sat in the case by the board of
Judges, and further upon the postpone
menes of the case upon the application
of counsel for the defendants He con
tends that the fact that the State lost
nothing, doe.* not change the aspect of
the charges, and denies the allegations
that the public mind is inflamed and
that a fair trial in the courts of that city
is impossible. In conclusion, Mr. Gra
ham says the extraordinary nature of
the appeal made in the petition of the
defendants is calculated to do irrepar
able injury and to make it impossible
to successfully prosecute persons of
wealth and power who are able to com
mand all that ingenuity skill and finesse
can bring to their ai d in escaping the
legal consequence of their acts. He
submits that, the petition of the
defendants should be refused and the
rule to show cause discharged.
A Conference at Quay's.
(Communicated.)
Such was the caption of a Special
from Washington, D. C., to the Pitts
burg Commercial Gazette on Sabbath,
the Uth inst. It was held in the home
WrTu •
Senators Quay and Penrose. Gov. Elect
Stone. State Chairman Elkins and
others. •
After what we saw published in news
papers during the late political cam
paign in defense of our senior Senator
as an uncompromising champion of the
Sabbath, we would naturally think that
this ''important conference' would be
held in the place indicated in the inter
est of the Sabbath or of Home of the
great reforms of the day which claims
public attention. In this, however, we
were sadly disappointed The special
referred to tells us that the organization
of the approaching legislature, the in
auguration of Gov. Stone, the subject
of patronage and the probability of Mr.
Quay succeeding himself another term
in the Senate were the topics under eon
i sideration. The Senator ninst certainly
fallen have from grace in the matter of
Sabbath observance, otherwise he would
not have thrown hi* doors open for such
a conference, nor would he have taken
an active part in it personally on such a
dav. His veneration for the Lord's day,
if fudged by what transpired in his
home on the 11th. is certainly at a low
ebb.
In my opinion the honorable Senator
is sadly lacking in the scriptural quali
fications which high officials in civil life
should possess These are ability, the
fear of God and the hatred of covetous
ness. Few who have watched his ca
reer in the Senate chainber will venture
to say that he is an able man and fewer
still; maintain very strennonsly, after
last Sabbath's conference that he has
much of the fear of God before his eyes,
and as to his hatred of covetousness. I
will say nothing. This the civil courts
will determine when they render judge
ment. in the matter now pending in
Philadelphia.
is on the down gradw in the
Keystone state. The yoke is broken,
the scepter has departed. In woof of
this, it is only necessary to refer to the
success that attended the opposition in
the late election and to tbe spirit of
murmuring and discontent that is
everywhere evinced toward the Sena
tor's attempt to succeed himself.
In the judgement of the writer, it
wonld be wise for Mr not to
press his claims farther for senatorial
n/*u>rs By quietly retiring from the
contest, h* wiJl advance his own inter
ets and confer a special favor on his
constituents Bat should he decline to
do so. it is to be hoped, and may I not
say expected, that the members of Uu
legislature will put hirn on the retired
list and send him back to Beaver,
known asjthe "saint's rest,' where in
his declining yeurs he can study anew
tbe fourth tomuiandriient, which his
godly father taught him m his boyhood
days. To this end, I would suggest
that all opposing elements would at
least for the time being, bury their po|ii
jcal differences in a common sepnlcher
and «• st their vote solid for some
worthy man irrespective of party. By
so doing, the ewl will be attained. By
pursuing a different «>prpe, defeat will
certainly be the revolt
As Nelson, the great naval adiniral,
said to his companions in arms when on
the eve of entering on the memorable
battle of Trafalgar "England exacts
every man to do hjh duty." So say Ito
the members of the Kw»fiy!ys»»ia legis
lature: Pennsylvania expects to
do yonr duty in choosing * statesman to
represent her in the Senate chamber of
tb« National metroisjlis." Let ber not
be disapis/iuU>d jn this expectation.

Went Liberty Institute
On Saturday, Dec. 10, our little town
was the scene of a very pleasant gather
ing as the teacher* of Bra<]y twp as
sembled In the M E church at I W p
m. to hold their local institute.
The splendid turnout of patroiis and
frtewd-S of education show that the
parent* U> JJrady twp art; much inter
ested in the w*lft//e of the schools and
their live teach/y*
The program in tfu< f, ;«-ns render
ed as follows:
Devotional Exercises,by Hunt (tie***

the Battle Hymn of the was 1
smng: after which C. C. Bailor ?ave a
very instructive talk oil Incentives to
School Work, he advocated the import
ance of the teacher ami parents co-oper
ating in the work Miss Koch then con
ducted a very interesting class in -I*-' 1
inc. and Mr Christly cave a practical
talk on the same subject The audience
was then favored by a recitation from
Lester Hall. eniitled "Gladiators.
Prof Cheeseman was called to the floor,
he took for his theme. The Qualifica
tions of the Teacher. and throwed out
nianv valuable hints along the Ime of
School Discipline. Then all adjourned
to meet at 7:80.
The following was the well arranged
program of the evening . It was opent- i
by music and then followed recitations
bv pnpils of the difierent schools, and a
dialogue bv the West Liberty school
entitled the Twelve Months. also two
entertaining Pantomines. Mr ( hrir-tly
then in his comical way gave a very in
structive address. He impressed upon
the teachers the importance of object
teaching and reality in their work. He
was followed bv R E. Allen who gave
a good address on Physiology, then
Master Frank Castor, who seems to be
a born orator, recited in a humorous
wa\ a recitation, entitled, Deacon
Brown After which W• G. Stude
tsaker gave an interesting and practical
address on the Influence of the Teach
eronthe Pupils. ' He said. ' The in
fluence of the teacher is so um-at that in
a certain time of the child s life, the
utterance of a few words by the teacher
mav determine its future lite. Then
came the Question Box which with its
manv interesting, instructive and comi
cal questions afforded a great deal of
pleasure for the evening.
In conclusion the committeeman, i.
C Badger, on whose shoulders the suc
cess of this institute mainly rested is
deserving of a great deal of praise for
his manner of conducting it and it is
hoped that this is only the beginning of
such institutes that will be held in this
place-

As to the Primaries—No. -
EL>ITOK CITIZEN— In last week sis
«ue of yonr paper a writer over the sig
nature "Justice" discusses the holding
of our primaries and objects to an earl}
primary giving his reasons. This is
very proj»er as we can by this means get
the viewsof others on both sides and then
all can do as thev think best. ' 'Justice
writes from Evans City, we write from
the fanner's stand point. In the first
place we are not a candidate, and don t
expect to be, but always take an inter
est in our affairs, and it makes no per
sonal difference to us when the prima
ries are held as we always attend when
able to Our experience has been con
eiderable and we know that when we
are busy sowing our oats between
showers or plowing our corn ground, or
planting our corn, we are generally pretty
busv, and if we have four and five can
idi dates a day call on us it takes up a
good deal of our time. The candidates
are our fellow citizens, each wants to
present his claims, and we always want
to treat them courteously, so, to give an
hour of our time to thirty or forty can
id idates during the canvass takes nr. a
good deal of our time at a season when
every hour is important.
Most of iny Republican neighbors
ha ve the same experience and you can
see what a lot of time in the aggregate
i« consumed, there something to
think about. Then suppose the primary
many voters will stay at home and
plant corn and let the primaries take
care of themselves, a small vote is cast
and not a full expresssion of the people
at the polls, then many are dissatisfied.
We in this "neck o' wood*" think tin
best expression of the people can be had
by an early primary, say along about
the latter part of March or first part «t
April as that is at a time before the
busy work of spring begins. When tbe
primaries are over we can all goon witu
our work without being interrupted
four and five times a day, that often in
terfering with our work. Then anotb
er thing to consider many of the can
didates are farmers themselves and by
having tbe primaries over by the first of
April, whether the lucky OBM or not,
thev can take up the spring work and
ana lose no time. Another matter, the
people are more generally found about
the bouse or barn before the spring
work begins and are more easily seen by
the candidates. Many other reasons
could be given along this line but we
forebear.
I*et us 1-sik at it from the stand jsiint
of the actual figures we have before us
the official returns of the Republican
primaries for several years and select
the years when the Court House and
other offices are to be filled, the same as
next year. We t>egin with IHM7

nrian was sent for.
A 14-year-old son of John Xitzgar. .>f
Madison township. Armstrong county
lost his lift- in a singular manuer while
out hunting He left home earlv in
the morning to hunt rabbits, and as the
day passed and he did not return his
parents became alarmed and a search
ing party was instituted. Shortly be
fore* dark they came across his track in
the snow, and a few moments after
found his lifeless body under a pile of
stones, frozen stiff. He had evidently
l>een dead several honrs when found.
It is supposed the young man had chas
e 1 a rabbit in the store fence and start
ed to dig it out. and when the exca
vation became large enough to admit
his body crawled in. and in working
with the stones they suddenly became
loosened and fell on him. Here he was
held until he was evidently frozen to
death, as an examination showed no in
juries which would cause death.
