MAHARG, PA., Jan. 24, 1899.
EDITOR CITIZEN:—Owing to ill
health, and under the advice of my phy
sician, I feel it a duty I owe to myself
to withdraw as a candidate for County
Treasurer. .
I am very grateful to my many friends
for their proffered support, and at some
other time I may again submit my name
as a candidate.
W. S. DXXON.
HAKKISIH KG.
On Thursday the second joint ballot
was taken and it stood Quay 111, Jenkß
85, Dalzel' 17, Stewart 9, Stone 8, Huff
5. etc., making 248 in all. The joint
convention was tame, the rejected reso
lutions of the previous day were offered
after the ballot and adopted with but
one dissenting voice. After the session
several leaders paired and went home,
Qnay went to W ashin^ton.
The House Committees werfi an
nounced that day, and we notice Mr.
Moore's name on the Judiciary General;
and Mr. Dindinger's on the Ways and
Means, and both are on some of the less |
important ones.
On Friday 42 legislators were absent
and paired, and the vote stood Quay 98,
Jenks 09, Dalzell 14, Stone 8, etc., mak
inga total of 210 votes. Resolutions
regarding pairs were offered and
adopted.
At Saturday's session 50 pairs were
announced, and there were some ab
sentees. The vote stood Quay 55, Jenks
41. Dalzell 13, Stewart 9, C. W. Stone
5, and enough scattering to make 138.
On Sunday a number of Democratic
legislators received fake telegrams from
Pittsburg, Phil'a aud Washington, pur
posing to come from Democratic lead
ers asking them to absent themselves
from Harrisburg, Tuesday, the idea
being to keep enough away to give
Quay a majority of those present, which
would elect if a majority of all were
present.
On Sunday, Goy. Stone issued an op
en letter urging the re-election of Sena
tor Quay.
At the joint ballot of Monday 98
members were paired and 4 others ab
sent; and the vote stood Quay 63, Jenks
48, Dalzell 11. Stewart 8. C. W. Stone 6,
P. A. B. Widerner 2, etc, making 150 in
all with 76 necessary for a choice.
Placards offering rewards for the de
tection of attempted bril>ery were post
ed in the hotels.
The anti Quay people were greatly
offended by the statement issned by
Gov. W. A. Stone urging the re election
of Senator Quay. A meeting of the
anti-Quay people was held Monday af
ternoon and Senator William Flinn and
Representative W. 11. Koontz, E. A,
CorayJr., Robert K. Young and Mali
lon L. Savage were named as a commit
tee to draft a protest. The committee
iasued the following
"We the undersigned, a committee
representing and acting for and by the
authority of the anti Quay Republican
members of the Legislature, hereby en
ter our protest against the unwarrented
and unusual attempted interference of
the chief executive of our State with
the members of the Legislature for the
purpose of influencing their votes for
the election of M. S. Quay to the Unit
ed States Senate. We regard the open
letter of <iov. Stone, published by the
press of the State, as an improper inter
ference by the executive branch of the
government with the rights aud duties
of the legislative department of the
Commonwealth.
"The material question in controversy
in the content is the fact that indict
ments are now pending against Mr.
Quay in the c riminal courts of Philadel
phia county, trials of which he has thus
far successfully eroded, as the follow
ing history will show:
At the hearing liefore Magisirat*
.ieruion, in Philadelphia, ou October *.
Mr Quay's counsel loudly proclaimed
the innocence ut their client and pro-
testM against the unfairness of their
position, in that, under the law, only
evidence of the Commonwealth c®uld
be heard before a committing magis
trate. and the defence had no opportun
ity to show how falsely he wart charged
District Attorney Graham at waiv
ed the Commonwealth'!* right in this
respect and offered to allow Mr. Quay
the opportunity of going npon the wit
ness stand to explain the incriminating
evidence that had been offered against
him. Mr Quay, however, refused to
avail himself of »this opi>ortanity. Ac
cording to the practice of the Phila
delphia courts, the case could not be re
turned for trial before the November
session. This was also a subject of com
plaint by Mr. Quay 's counsel Mr. Gra
ham again offered" to immediately sub
mit the indictments to the Grand Jury
and to fix a day for the trial in October.
Mr. Quay again failed to avail himself
of this privilege
"Then Mr. Quay started for Florida
and Mr Graham sent a note to his conn
sel suggesting that a protracted stay
would be nnwise, as an early day would
be fixed for trial. Mr. Quay replied:
"I will not gratify my enemies by a
luent » delay in the trial of the cases.
Upon the day fixed for Mr. Quay to
come into court to plead to the indict
ments he appeared with bis counsel and
prayed for more time. This time was
granted him. Fiye days afterward his
counsel came into court and demurred
to certain bills and filed motions to
qnash others. Almost one entire day
was used in the argument of this phase
of the proceedsngs, Upon the filling of
the adverse opinion of Judge Finletter
a day was fixed for trial. Subsequently
Mr. Qnay asked for more time, and Dec
ember 12 was fixed. Shortly before the
day thus set for trial Mr. Qnay filed
his celebiated petition in the Supreme
court asking for a rule to show cause
why a writ of certiorari should not be
issued. The petition was granted and
made returnable on January 7, 1899.
To this petition the district attorney fil
ed his answer in which, among other
things, he solemnly set forth that for
years hundreds of thousands of dollars
of the sacred trust funds of the State
had been set aside for the personal and
sole use of M. S. Quay.
"While these proceedings were to be
argued in the Supreme court on Jan
uary 7. Mr. Quay attempted to force a
caucus on Jannarv 3 eight hours after
the organization of the Legislature.
This monstrous proposition wiped aside
all precedents and we declined to vote
for M. S. Quay until he had been acquit
ted of these criminal charges which he
bad adroitly dodged.
"The argument before the full bench
of the Supreme court took place om Jan
nary 7, where Mr. Quay was represent
ed by able counsel, when, after due de
liberation, the conrt, without a desent
ing voice, sent the cases back to the
Philadelphia courts for trial, regardless
of the statements of Mr. Qnay, under
oath, as contained in his petition, and
the argument of Mr. Watson, to which
the Governor gives so much weight.
"Notwithstanding the above,the Gov
ernor of this Commonwealth brushes
aside the court and jury and all the
criminal charges in the cases, and upon
the naked statement of D. T. Watson,
the paid attorney of M. S. Quay, de
clares Mr Qnay innocent and the vic
tim of political persecution. Upon tne
ground of party regularity alone the
Governor nrges the election of M. S.
Quay, while, at the same time, he. as
well as all others knows that Mr Quay
cannot be elected by Republican votes,
and that Mr. Quay and his lieutenants
are desperately soliciting Democratic
votes as the only means of re-electing
him to the United States Senate.
For these reasons we do most emphat
ically dissent from the'sentiments ex
pressed in the open letter of the Gover
nor, believing that nine-tenths of the
people of the State agree with ns and
indorse our action."
The Democratic leaders were arriving
in town and investigating the fake tele
gram business.
Nearly 100 Democratic editors of re
presentative State newspapers respond
ed to a request from a local paper as to
the sentiment of the voters of their lo
cality touching the probability of Dem
ocratic Legislators voting for or help
ing Mr. Quay in his contest for the Sen
atorship. The belief is emphatic and
unanimous as to the dreadful punish
ment that mnst follow such recreancy.
Here is a sample of the replies:
John F. Short, of the Clearfield "Re
publican"—"The Democrat wiio votes
for Quay will be regarded as a traitor
to his God. his country and his fellow
man by every decent Democrat in Clear
field county It is not unusual any
hour to hear our best citizens express
themselves thus: The democrat who
votes for Quay should be shot down on
the floor of the House. "
At Tuesday 8 joint session 238 mem
bers were present and the vote stood
Quay 106. Jenks HO, Dalzell 15, Stewart
8, Stone 8, etc.
The galleries were crowded, the
scheme to have Democratic member*
absent ithemselves • failed, "steering'
committees were appointed by the dif
ferent factions, Quay and Magee were
in conference after the session, the situ
ation remained practically the same.
At Tuesday's session of the Senate
McCarrell's bill amending the jury law
and restricting the power of the district
Attorney passed Second Reading. The
purpose of the bill in said to be to help
Quay in his coming trial in Fbil'a.
At yesterday's joint session 18 pairs
were announced and the vote stood,
Quay 104, Jenks 70, Dalzell 16, Stewart
8. Stone 7, etc—2B4 in all, and 118 nec
essary to elect.
THE election of Hon Chauncy M.
Depew to the United States Senate from
New York by the unanimous vote of
the Republicans of the Empire State is
a compliment well deserved. Mr De
pew is a typical American, a scholar,
and an orator. His wide knowledge of
affaire, his oratorical ability and his
large acquaintance will enable him to
take rank at once as an influential
member of the greatest legislative body
of the world. York state is fortunate
and the Republican party is favored in
securing so able a senator at this time.
The party is to be congratulated op the
unity with which the selection has been
made.- Butler Eagle of last week.
Hon. John Dalzell, of Allegheny Co.,
is the peer of Chaunoey M. Dupow aa
an orator and scholar; and besides these
qualifications he has already made fcr
himself a National reputation as a
statesman. Why should not he be
Quay's successor, and why continue to
yammer about Quay's vote of seven
years ago when the conditions were
entirely difforunt from those that now
confront us?
Is Pennsylvania never to hav» a
statesman in the United States Senate,
and is the politics of the state to be for
ever prostituted to the power of the
"almighty dollar "
NATHAN B. SCOTT is the new U. s.
Senator from West Virginia. Hi; is a
Republican.
I* Tl»« <iov«»riu»r Crazy?
Governor Stone having exhausted
the offices at his disposal to make votes
for Quay, is out with a second and more
elaborate edition of his interview urg
ing Quay's election. It will have little
effect He has exhausted the solid
reasons that captured four Quay votes
from Lancaster county in return for the
s -cretaryihip of the commonwealth,
well as other offices for other votes.
He has nothing left to go on.
When Governor Stone, as he does in
this interview, to which he appends his
signature as if to giye it greater weight,
passes judgment on judicial proceed
ings against yuay for conspiracy to
plunder the public treasury he violates
all the decencies and proprieties of his
office. What business haw be to say
that the indictments against tjuay, su*
tained by the Philadelphia courts, as
well as by the supreme court, are of a
political character,"that "there i» noth
in the bills of indictment," thai th*
testimony does not show him "to have
violated any law," and that "the pro
<;.;edinga were inspired and instituted
<or the purpose of influencing votes
again* t fcenntor Y Here we have
the governor, in tie service of his lord
and master, a&sailing the prosecuting
officers of the Commonwealth, the
grand jury and the jndicary. Was
anything of the kind ever heard of be
fore? We doubt it.
Is it within the proper and legitimate
sphere of executive duty for the gov
ernor to interfere in this way in an en
deayor toembarrassordefeat the enforce
ment of the laws and the just punish
ment of those who violate them? It is
a dishonor to Peimnsylvania to have a
governor capable of such gross and
stupid official indecency. He should
have reserved his opinions until called
on to exercise the pardoning power, if
that emergency arises. If Quay is so
clearly and manifestly' guiltless as the
governor maintains, why the efforts of
his counsel to throw oyer the trial un
til after the senatorial election 7
As to there being nothing in the
bills of indictment," as the governor
asserts, how comes it that the Philia
delphia jupges sustained these indict
ments on demurrer? The demurrers
admitted the offence charged, but
claimed it was no violation of law.
The court in overuling declared with
great emphasis it constituted a crime,
and therefore was in violation of law.
District Attorney Graham stated the
issue with distinctness in his answer in
the dilatory certiorari proceeding when
he said:
The books show that hundreds of
tnousands of dollars of the public mon
ey deposited in the Peoples bank were
set apart for the use of M, S. Quay, and
used by him, amd that he was charged
no interest thereon. The books show
that hundreds of thousands of dollars'
worth of stock were bought for the
said M. S Quay with this money. That
whenever he failed to-use his full allow
ance of public money thus set apart for
him, interest was carefully calculated
upon the balance not used by him in
the purchase of stocks and paid to the
State treasurer.
We repeat it is a grave official scan
dal for the governor to thrust his per
sonality into the course of legal pro
ceedings and prejudge a cane that the
courts have yet to pass upon It is an
indecent contempt of the judiciary in
the discharge of duties imposed on it
by the constitution and laws.
This opinion is likewise held by some
legislators, as the public statement is
sued last night shows. —Ex.
IN the event of the defeat of Senator
Quay for re-election, vye believe the
next choice of the majority of the voters
of Jefferson county would be Congress
man John Dalzell, of Pittsburg. —Punx
sutawney Spirit.
Death in the Flames.
Wednesday morning, Jan 11, about
1 o'clock H. E. Rice of Corduroy, Elk
county, with six horses lost their lives
in the flames which destroyed the barn
at that place.
Mr. Rice drove the hack and carried
the mail between that place and Kane.
It was his custom to sleep in the sta
ble and a room had been prepared for
his use. His father spent part of Tues
day evening with him and when the
latter left for home his son was practic
ing on the telegraph instrument, being
anxious to learn the art.
About 1 o'clock Mr. Rice was awak
ened by the cry of fire, the barn was
in flames and it was impossible to res
cue either Edwin or any of the horses
"It was evident that the fire originated
in the room occupied by the unfortu
nate man as that end of the barn was
destroyed when the fire was discovered.
By the position of the young man's
body in the ruins he had made an effort
to escape, but before he reached the
window had been overcome by the
smoke and flames.
H. E. Rice was born on July 30, 1H77,
and was in his 22d year.
The departure of a soul so youug and
pure from this earth seems to require
that the living should pay a tribute of
public respect to his memory. This
young man was raised by his grandpa
rents of Middle Lancaster, who took
him when quite small, at the death of
his mother. He stayed with his grand
parents until two and a half years ago,
when he went to Elk county to live
with his father.
He was well known in Harmony,
Whitestown and Middle Lancaster,
which was his old home. To those who
knew him and knew him best it was as
if death's call had relieved a spirit al
ready so purified as to wing its flight
straightway into the arms of the bless
ed Savior.
Well is it in this earthy vale of tears
that the bereaved are vouchsafed by
kindly Providence a glimpse into the
eternal beauties behind the gates ajar,
when weeping eyes, in God's own faith,
may l>ehold the loved and lost caught
up in Heaven's veiv portals and carried
thence into the everlasting joys prepar
ed for those who have truly loved and
served the Divine Master.
Truly hath it been said "it is not all
of life to live, nor all of death to die."
For the life and death of the righteous
exercise a magnetic power over the
souls of those who witness them, and it
endows them with a wealth of riches
compared with which the dross of earth
is of no account.
There were many Butler county
friends to whom the tidings of his
death brought a shock of sorrow, for he
had knit many ties of friendship here
which death can only sever.
The eyes that were closed by the
angel thai night are opened wide again
by the shining spirit of resurrection,and
now look down upon you like stars out
of a dark firmament, waiting and beck
oning to surviving father and brother.
Dearest Edwin, thou art gone
To the place we call our home,
Yet we would not once recall.
Though you were the love of all.
For we know you are at rest,
In our Saviour's loving care.
God has given, Ood has taken,
And we miss you everywhere
Rest dear Edwin, at Jesus feet,
For he bids his children come,
Trusting some day we may meet,
When our labors here are done.
A friend in sorrow,

by the Swedish government in search of

A IMcnsiiiit Meeting in Franklin
MU. EJHTOK ALLOW me to report
through your valuable paper a pleasant
event which took place at the resilience
of Mr. J. H. Davis of Franklin twp oti
on Thursday Jan. IK. The oeoujtiou of
the meeting was the desire of the mem
bers of Forest Orange and the people
of the community to pay their respects
to our worthy brother and sister who
owing to an accident which happened to
Mrs. Da vis sometime ago has detained
ihum from our meetings and social fel
lowship Thp day \ya« a propitious one
and the presence of a goodly number of
the people of the community with has
kets ladened with the indiupcnsable
good things of such occasions and with
hearts full of the milk of human kind
ness and social good will what could
hinder an enjoyable time to both host
and guests. In the early hours of the
day the current questions of the times
were pretty thoroughly discussed and
decided as their merits demanded. The
tjuaj' was argued and a purer
policy in pc/litics (leafed, the merits and
fitness of our local candidates were re
hearsed; the annexation of the Philip
pine* nettled to the satisfaction of all,
pugljstic ejiootintofti condemned as a
menace to good society while a policy
of the righteousness that exaltelh a ;l
tion was prescribed as the elixir which
will cure all our social and political ills,
Having disposed of these matters to
the satisfaction of all and dinner being
announced all hands proceeded to the
agreeable task of miking large inroads
upon the bonntifnl and delicious pro
ducts of our culinary adepts and though
all showed wonderful capacity in this
direction the snpplv greatly exceeded
all demands After dinner the meeting
was organized by electing Mr John M.
Bride to act as chairman and R ('
Thompson sec'y. after prayer Rev. J. M.
Oliver in behalf of the givers, in a very
appropriate address presented to Mr. and
.Mrs. Davis a number of substantial
presents as tokens of their friendship
and esteem. Mr. Davis in behalf of him
self and family replied by assuring the
guests that they appreciated and would
cherish the gifts as testimonials of their
love and kindness
Addresses were then made by Mr
W J. Stoner and Mr. Harlan Book
then the meeting was closed by prayer
and benediction.
IN the game of deceit, treachery and
mental and moral prostitution now go

will wind up with the '•gold-brick" in

The farmer's institute last week was
a very successful affair. Owing to the
sickness among the speakers, Chairman
Stoughton had to change the program
me several times, bnt everything came
out all right, and Mr. Stoughton is to
be congratulated upon his tireless
efforts. The address of welcome was
made by Carl Shanor, who in his own
winsome way, welcomed the farmers,
and we were going to say the candi
dates.
The response was made by. Elvin
Pyle in a speech full of thought and in
terest. The State speakers were Messrs
Oritchfield, Herr and Burns. The local
talent —both men and women, did
exceedingly well and the state speakers
were very much surprised at the talent
displayed.
The mnsic throughout the institate
was furnished by Cornet band, and
everyone complimented them upon
their fine mnsic.
The education session Wednesday
eve. was a noticable and pleasant part
of the proceedings.
The scholars of Room No. 2, sang
"The Old School Bell". Prof. Green
spoke on "What Is It Worth"'? The
Prof, is master at our Academy, and
brought out many good ideas in his
speech. A recitation was given by
Charlie Lepley. The little imps liaye
been playing with Charlie's throat and
upper lips of late, but notwithstanding,
Charlie did well for his first appearance
in public. The little folks of Room
No. I,then sang "The Crow Song" and
also "Sowing." These are motion
songs and the audience were much
amnsed at the little tots, who did their
very best.
Frank Barkley. who is one of our
promising young men, talked on 'Duty
of The Times". Frank has a pleasant
voice and did well.
"The Skater's Song" was sung by
Room No. 2, and received their share of
applause too. A recitation was given
by Miss Frankie Dodds. Miss Dodds
has had some experience in declaiming
and we got what we looked for, a fine
recitation. Prof Dyke, who was a new
speaker to our people, discoursed on
"Present Demands". Mr. Dyke brought
out many good things in his interesting
talk.
"The Tramps" was spoken by Miss
Cora McLure, and her reputation as a
speaker wae a forecast of her .success
Supt. Cheesman, who is no stranger
to our people, gave an interesting talk
on "A Higher Education". The Supt.
always does well, but the occasion
seemed to inspire him.
"The Brooklet'' was sung by some
ladies of Room Jso. 2. They sang as
well as they looked "The An«els of
Boena Vista" was rendered by C. H.
Hueter. Charlie is a forcible and en
tertaining speaker and we were assured
of his success before hand. Hon N. B.
CYitchtield then gave a splendid talk to
all the school children present, and said
"the only way to be happy is to do yonr
duty" and he told several anecdotes to
illustrate his arguments. The band
also enlivened the proceedings with
some of their splendid music.
