Outside Comment.
Whether or no the U. S. Senate will
admit M. S. Quay as a member is dis
cussed by tue N. Y. Sun t as follows:
The State Constitution of Pennsyl
vania does not warrant the teuiporarv
appointment of a United States Senator
by the Governor, no matter how the
vacancy arises, at least for a period ot
more than sixty days. Here are its
very distinct provisions on this subject:
• In case of a vacancy in the office cf
U S. Senator from this Commonwealth,
in a recess between sessions, the Gov
ernor shall convene the two Houses,
by proclamation or notice not exceed
ing sixty (lavs, to fill the same.
L Apparently the intention of the
framers of the Pennsylvania Consti
tntion was that there should be no
temporary appointment of United
States Senator by the Governor; that in
all cases of vacancy the Legislature
should be convened at once to fill the
vacancy. In the present instance that
would be merely to renew the deadlock.
The next regular session of the Penn
sylvania Legislature will not occur
until the first Tuesday of January, ISXH.
Therefore, if Governor Stone failed to
call an extra session meanwhile, or if
an extra session called by him this year
or next year failed 10 elect, Pennsyl
-1 vania would continue to be represented
"" by only one United Sates Senator
throughout the remainder of the present
year and the whole of the year 1900.
Whether Governor Stone is disobey
ing a plain mandate of the State Con
stitution or not is a question of no
particular interest outside of Pennsyl
vania. He does not rest his appoint
ment of Mr. Quay upon any authority
conferred upon him by State law. He
finds it in the following clause of the
United States Constitution;
"If vacancies happen, by resignation
or otherwise, during the recess of the
Legislature of any State, the Executive
thereof may make temporary appoint
ments until the next meeting of the
Legislature, which shall then till such
vacancy."
Here the Governor runs plump into
the venerable controversy respecting
the meaning of the word "happen in
this provision of the Constitution. As
to the power of a Governor to fill by
temporary appointment a vacancy
occurring by resignation, death, expul
sion, or otherwise, during an unexpired
term, there is absolutely no doubt. He
t>| can fill such a vacancy, and his appoint
* ment is accepted as valid by the Senate
a always the final judge of the qualifica
■ cations of its own members; and it
holds good until the next session of the
State Legislature. But the right of a
Governor to make in the absence of the
Legislature an original appointment,
commencing a new term, or, in other
words, to stand in the place of the Leg
islature and fill a vacancy when the
Legislature has tried and failed to
elect, is another and quite a different
question. Eminent Senatorial inter
preters of the Constitution have differed
diametrically upon this question. Hun
dreds of pages of the Congressional
Record hp ye been occupied with their
arguments for and against the consti
tutionality of the authority which Gov
ernor Stono has assumed to exercise in
this case. Considerations of partisan
politics and of personal acceptability
have influenced the Senate s decision
as to the admission of claimants holding
certificates similar to that which Gov
ernor Stone has bestowed upon Mr.
Quay. There are precedents both for
admission and for rejection; but it is
proper to say that in recent years the
precedents have been against the theory
on which Governor Stone is now acting.
Up to 1825 the Senate was accustomed
to seat without question and even with
out debate those claimants who had
been appointed as Governor Stone has
apppointed Mr. Quay. There were ten
such cases within four or five years
preceding that date. In 1825 Senator
Lanman of Connecticut was appointed
by the Governor of that State to a
second term, during a recess of the
Legislature, and before the vacancy
occurred. This case brought the gen
eral question to the attention of the
Senate, and by a small majority that
body decided after three days' debate
that tho appointment was without
authority of law.
For fifty-four years after the decision
of the Lanman case the precedent thus
established was nevsr directly reversed.
There were, it is true some instances,
as in the case of Senator Sevier of
Arkansas, where the Senate partially
accepted the contrary view of toe Gov
ernor'.! power of appointment; hut the
conditions were complicated by other
questions. On the other hand, there
were during the same period at least
eight cases where a State went with
only halt-representation in the Senate,
because the Legislature had failed to
elect and nobody set up the claim that
the Governor had constitutional author
ity to stand in the Legislature's place.
In 1879 the Lanman precedent was
squarely reversed by the Senate in the
cases of Mr. Blair and Mr. Bell of New
Hampshire, who held appointments by
the Governor only, Mr. Blair's being for
a full term and Mr. Bell's for the unex
pired torn of Senator Wadleigh. At
that time Senator Conkling of New
York remarked in the Senate:
"If it should be the established law
that whenever a Legislature decided
not to elect, the power to fill the
vacancy should revert to the Executive
of the State, the Senate and all of us
must see how exposed the whole process
of tilling seats in the Senate would be
come, because the Governor and his
friends, by cabal, intrigue, manoeuvre,
might so arrange that the Legislature
would decide not to elect, or would fail
to elect, in order that the Governor
might gather to himself tho power to
fill the vacancy."
In 189!!, again, in the case of Lee
Mantle, which was tho test case in
volving three appointments by Gov
ernors, namely, in Montana, Wyoming
and Washington, the Senate refused to
admit the claimants. And it was only
last year that the question was revived,
thoroughly discussed, and decided by
vote, in the case of Mr. Henry W. Cor
bett, who asked to be seated as a mem
ber of the Senate by virtue ol' an ap
pointment for the lieginning of a full
term, made by the Governor of Oregon
during a recess of the Legislature. Mr.
Corbett's certificate was in due form,
and his case was decided against him
on general . principles. The Senate
refused to admit him, 011 Feb. 28, 1898,
by a vote of 50 to 19.
It will be seen, therefore, that when
Mr. Quay applies for recognition and
admission on the strength of Governor
Stone's appointment, he will apply to a
body which has decided similar cases in
both ways in the past, and established
precedents both for him and against
him. All this amounts to saying that
the Senate will be the sole judge of Mr.
Quay's qualifications. It will do as it
pleases. It has unrestricted power
either to tear up theGoveruor'sappoint
ment and shut out Mr. Quay, or to take
him in and recognize him as the lawful
Senator from the Keystone State.
As to the position which individual
members of the Senate are likely to as
sume when the case comes before them,
we get some valuable indications from
from the vote on Mr. Corbettsrejectiou.
The nineteen Senators who held a little
more than a year ago that Mr. Corbett's
appointment was constitutional and |
that he was entitled to his seat were j
these; '
1 Aldrich. Allison, Baker Fairbanks, j
Foraker, Frye. Hanna. Hansbrongh, j
Hawley. Hoar, Lodge, Mantle,
Morrill. Perkins, Sewell, Turner, Wet
: more, and Wilson.
Most of these gentlemen are yet in
the Senate, and the list includes several
of the most distinguished Senators on
the Republican side. Mr. Quay, there
fore, will not lack a strong support in
i his own party on the merits of the ques-
I tion. The majority of the fifty who
i voted to exclude Mr. Corbett were
! Democrats, although several leading
: Republicans voted with them, Senator
: Burrows, for example, and Senator
Gallinger and Senator Hale.
Moreover a enrions feature of com
plication is introduced by the circum
Stance that not only did Mr. Quay s
colleague. Senator Penrose, vote against
the admission 01 Mr. Corbett, who held
only a Governor s appointment, but
Senator Quav himself is recorded as
paired with Senator Morgan, who an
nounced that he should otherwise have
voted to admit Mr. Corbett on his Gov
ernor's certificate.
A further complication, from the
point of view of practical politics, is
found in the circumstance that not only
the Republican Governor Gage of 1 al
ifoinia. but also Governor Ebe YV Tnn
nell of Delaware, is likely to follow the
example Bet bv Governor Stone of
Pennsylvania. The Republican Legis
lature of Delaware, as everybody
I remembers, likewise adjourned without
electing a Senator, but in this case the
Governor happens to be a Democrat,
and he will not be slow to send to the
. Senate a Democratic appointee, whose
7 case must be decided s»mnl taneou si 5
r with Mr. Quay's and on the same Diin
? ciples as will" decide Mr Quay's ad
f mission or rejection.
The Douthett Case.
f On Thursday last, said the Pittsburg
' Times David B. Douthett and Dr. Hor
ace S. McClvmonds. father and broth
; er-in-law of'Doutliett. issued a foreign
attachment agflinst Marshall B. Douth
ett whom they described as "a non-resi
!. dent of the state of Pennsylvania and
. not now a resident of the county of 1 -
1 legheny. The attachment was issued
, in Common Pleas court No. 1. and Bro
; ker James S. McKelvy. of Fourth eve
i nue. was named as garnishee, Dr. Mc-
Clymonds stated that Douthett had con
ducted part of his stock dealings
through Broker McKelvey and that he
. had made money on his stocks anil had
considerable on margins there. As
' aoon as the trust company found that it
f had cashed fraudent paper it issued an
. attachment against the amount in Bro
ker McKelvey s hands, and the Fort
1 Pitt National bank dul the same. The
. father and brother-in-law were anxious
to seize any balance, if 'there was any,
to assist in paying the l&sscs that would
be incurred in"settling the for
. the borough.
> Attorney Charles A. Woods issa
ed an execution against David B.
Douthett and M. B. Douthett on behalf
. of the Butler County National bank on
, a judgement note for SBOO that M. B.
, Douthett had given the bank, with his
father as indomer. Dr. McClymonds
stated that the father's indorsement was
forged and that Cashier J. \ . Ritts had
, called uiKin him a few days ago to talk
the matter over. Mr. Ritts stated at
, that time that young Douthett had paid
the interest on the note several times
and had it renewed. He had given the
, money to the young man because ho
was an old acquaintance and business
friend of his father.
Dr. McClymonds said that young
Douthett had gone to New York a few
weeks ago and had invested heavily in
stocks, and he believed that he had lost
money there. He said he understood
Douthett had made money in his deal
ings in Pittsburg. He said that the
Douthett family had been sorely grieyed
over the >oung man's marriage. Dr.
McClymonds said that M. B. Douthett
had called at his homo Saturday even
ing, but that he had said nothing of
ing away. The first intimation they
had of his departure was when some
one called on Sunday and said that 'the
blinds in the young man's home were
drawn, and that something must be
wrong. They visited the house and
found it empty, and moving vans ap
peard on Monday to cart the furniture
away, Dr. McClymonds said that lie
had no idea to what extent the shortag
es had gone, bat that he and his father
in-law stood ready to pay ajl *Q the
limit of their bond of ss,o<K>. He
thought that they might be swamped
if they tried to go beyond that.
It was stated in Wilkinsburg that
night that during the past few weeks
Douthett had beecmp famous in well
known places in Pittsburg for liis lavish
expenditure of money, and that his
friends thought that something was
wrong. All were confident that Douth
ett would be a? several de
tectives had been put on the oaao
Acquitted.
At Canton O, last Friday noon the
jury in the case of the Com. vs Mrs
Anna George, charged with the murder
of George Saxton, came in with a ver
dict of not guilty".
The jury was out 2:1 hoars and i">
minutes, and during that lime 'j"j bill
lots were cast. It was said that the
preliminary ballot was taken at 12: W
o'clock Thursday afternoon, or half an
hour after they had been closeted in the
jury room. This ballot showed four
favoring a verdict of guilty of murder
in the first degree and eight jurymen
for a verdict of not guilty, or acquittal.
Thii second ballot was taken at 2 p. 111,
and resulted the same. This was also
the result of the third ballot, taken 45
minutes later. The fourth ballot is
said to have been two for guilty in the
first degree and seven not guilty, one
for second degree and two for man
slaughter. At 4p. m. the fifth ballot
was taken, with eight for not guilty
and four for manslaughter. This was
the result of all the succeeding ballots
up to the fourteenth ballot, at two
o'clock Friday morning. Tho fifteenth
ballot was taken at 4.55 that morning
resulting in nine for not guilty and
three for manslaughter. The sixteenth
ballot was not taken until 6:15 Friday
morning, when the ballot stood eight
for not guilty, three for manslaughter
and one for assault and battery. At 10
a. 111. the twentieth ballot was taken,
showing 11 for not guilty and one lor
first degree murder. The same result
was obtained in the twenty-first ballot.
The twenty-second and last ballot was
taken at 10:22, with a unanimous vote
for not guilty.
The verdict caused a tumultuous dem
onstration in the court room, and Mrs.
George has received several offers to go
on the stage.
' The result is more of a condemnation
of the man than vindication of the wom
an.
Saxton was an unusually entertaining
man, and he inherited plenty of money;
but he was mercilca in his dealings
with women and had often been warn
ed by his male friends that he would
meet with a violent death. He was nor
a hypocrite, he did not preach temper
ance and chastity, and as he was not in
politics had no occasion to advertise
himself as a "man of superior social
and moral qualities"; he was simply a
persistent, successful, heartless liber
tine who sent one woman after another
either to her grave or a life of shame,
and it was but fitting that he should
come to his death at the hands of one
of his victims.
Beware <>l" Food Samples.
Quite recently in New York two
deaths occurred "from poisoning by the
use of powders sent to the victims by
mail. In Leavenworth, Kans., the
other day nearly every doctor in town
was called to attend the children who
had gathered up, eaten, and been made
ill by samples of an article left at
houses by canvassers for advertising
purposes.
Alum baking powders have always
beeu favorite articles for this sampling
business. Yet there is nothing more
liable to lead to danger than the prac
tice of using the various samples of
baking powder left at the door They
are presented by irresponsible parties,
in appearance are not distinguishable
from arsenic, and indeed, in Indiana
some time since one package was found, .;
after it had caused the death of the |
housewife, to have been mixed with '
that poison.
It is safer to refuse all samplesof food •
or medicine offered at the door. Pure
I cream of tartar baking powders sell
j upon their merits, and are never peddled j
or sampled. <

and then concluded they would go out

' doing so however Mrs. Thompson on
' looking out through a window noticed
a queer looking object on the porch
from which there seemed to come a
wailing sound resembling the cry of a
cat. Opening the door she was greeted
with the sight of a large -well tilled
basket. Proceeding at once to divest
: the basket of its contents she found
' that it contained a nursing bottle, two
boxes of condensed milk, a supply of
1 infants' clothing and a plump girt baby
beside. A card attached to the child s
, arm stated that it would be seven
months old the first day of May. The
1 card contained a request that the little

IN this State when managing politi
cians get into close quarters they plead
the statute of limitations but in York
State they plead boils. The release of
the Hon. Richard Croker of New York
until Aug. 29 on account of boils is one
of the positive facts of the Mazet inves
tigation. The report of Mr. Croker's
appearance before the Chairman of the
j committee, bringing the documents in
1 the case with him, deserves a place in
I history:
"The big Boss pointed plaintively to
the back of his neck and said it would
bea matterof much physical discomfort
j to him if he were subjected to any fur
i ther examination."
How Can We lia\«* Fruit
on the Farm?
First, we mast learn the nature of
each kinil of frnit trees. Learn under
what conditions they succeed best
Plant in proper time: take proper care
of them when set oat and use proper
fertilizers. One great reason why the
majority of farmers do not succeed with
1 fruit is because They treat all kinds of
I fruit trees alike. They plant, prune.
' fertilize and care for the apple, pear
' peach, quince and cherry the same
Now this is all wrong, and after 1 jjivi>
a few general rules that apply to all
kinds of fruit trees, I propose (if the
• editor of the Citizen" will permit) to
f take each specie of farm fruit separate
ly so that my farmer friends may bet
i ter understand how to care for their
1 fruit trees, and now as to general rules !
Every farmer should learn how to
I graft and, if possible bad, it is not j
i hard to learn to graft properly, and j
every farmer should do his own graft-1
ing then he will know what kind of
1 fruit he will have without waiting nn
\ til it comes to bearing anil find that he
Las had some worthless truck stuck on
him at good figures. But this is not all
the majority of farmers cannot get
> their trees from the nursery in proper
- time for planting. This brings us to
r the question, when is the proper time to
3 plant? and right here let me say that 1
t am fully aware that man) will disagree
) with me. but long experience has fully
i satisfied jny mind that the latter part
- of February or first part of March is far
} the best time to plant fruit trees, and
i as we seldom get more than a few days
1 at a time at that period that the frost
i will be out of the ground sufficiently to
i allow of planting, we cannot send to a
t distance for our trees but mast have
1 them at hand.
1 Eat why not plant in the autumn"'
t Because in taking up your tree yon de
-1 stroy the most of the small rootlets or
) feeders, and after replanting your tree
f has no hold on the soil, the heavy freez
ing of winter penetrates the lose soil
down to the roots of your tree and so
freezes the snbstauee out of them that
your tree either dies or is so badly
stunted that it never fully recovers,
and I have never known stunted trees
to amount to imicl?.
Why not April or May > For the rea
t son that the hot sun will dry out the
loose soil before the tree can take hold
of the soil. The sap in the tree will
evaporate and you have the same result
as planting in autumn. But some one
r will say mulch your trees with straw or
I something else. If you do you deprive
• the crown of the tree of a very essential
t thing and that is sunlight and air
which are necessary to properly devel
s ope any plant. The only kind of mulch
• that 1 would recommend is one of fine
1 loose soil made by a cultivator or other
- such like implement and this not about
i the pear. Never turn cattle or horses
> among young trees; never braise, bark
i or otherwise mangle any tree any more
I than you mangle a child, for if you do
i the proper usefulness of your tree is at
' an end. W.J. P.
