The following resolu tions were adopted: THK RESOLUTIONS. "We, the Republicans of Centre county, in convention assembled, here by reaffirm our adherence to the prin ciples and traditions of our party. "We heartily endorse the brilliant adaiinlstration of President McKinley and commend his patriotic, wise and successful conduct of affairs during the crucial period through which the coun try has recently passed In its war with ainT Tfi?r~exi(»n.uon' 0) commerce mark an era In our history and in our party. We regard it as the duty of the people to uphold the policy and strengthen the hands and purpose oi President McKinley at all times, and we pledge our individual support to that end. As a fitting recognition of his masterly achievements we heart ily endorse his re-election for a sec ond term. "We view with gratification the ad ministration of our distinguished fel low citizen, Governor Daniel 11. Hast ings. We approve his fearless and un ceasing efforts to protect the state treasury against political raiders and machine Jobbers. We applaud his ex posure of the padded pay rolls and In demnity bond, and his wise use of the v<-io power at all times in the Interest 'if the people. We commend his ob servance of and strict, regard for con stitutional mandate and statute law, regardless of partisan demand, *s well us his concern for the varied Institu tions of the commonwealth, education al, charitable and penal. Ills devotion to the interests of the volunteer sol- Me:i! of our state, whose every move ment was under fils watchful eye, was fully exemplified In Wr organization of the state hospital trains for the re lief of the fever stricken In the camps of the south, and we are deeply grate ful with our fellow citizens of the slate at large, who shared with us these hu mane and unselfish ministrations. "We congratulate the people of Penn sylvania upon the splendid patriotism exhibited by the!/ Hons us defenders of the (lag and soldiers tn the cause of humanity, on the record that they have made, which will ever stand among the highest for valor and devotion, a proud heritage of our common wealth for all the years to come. "We deprecate the reduction of the public school appropriation as unnoc e • :iry and unjustifiable. Our pul»ll< schools are the ...ifeguard of the nation. Th • > totting down of the fund for their support means reduced : alaries foi teachers, a shorter school term, which Is an Injustice »#> tL ■ children. or In creased taxation for tie citizens "In conclusion, \»e plcttge our earn est support to the th ket nominated by the convention today." GOVERNOR HASTINGS' SPl.fc' ll General I fast logs presided over the convention, and at tha close of Its do liberation! i:e was loudly called upon for a peech lie responded, and In the cours« of his remarks said "The l(< publican party In Pennsyl vania will continue to merit and to re ceive support and confidence of ill people only so long as Its representa tive* shall deal fairly and honestly by tin-in Official station In our common wealth him taken on a new significance The public conscience has become so quickened that no man called to official life will hereaftei dan- to be aught than the faithful repre entative of those who have honored him. Ills of ficial life must stand for the best Inn-r --ests of the v.hole people lie can no longer dure to u place and patronage for selfish persona! advance.ne.it. He must safeguard every Interest of his constituency. "The pulill' iii< neya In bis care and keeping nun i be heM as a sacred trust to bo faithfully administered and ac counted for. The public Institutions of the state mus' no longer be made the football of a designing politician, and our charitable and educational Instl tutlons be handled as tools for selfish purposes. Tin time has come when public patronage will no longer be bartered for selfish and persona! ad vancement "Our free schools, th" safeguard of the nation, tnu 1 receive the generous support to which they are entitled They will continue to occupy it higher position In the public mind, and lie who HtiikeH a blow ill them will be cliui: iteilz d as .:n enemy to the state and nation. "The: e in n tide rising in the public mind whi' !i lir. "Is- higher respect and devotion for our constitution and our laws. The irred enactments of our people are it.>i to he treated as trifles, nor are they to be overridden by those In high or low official station. Our const Hut lon and our laws must be faithfully Interpreted and administer ed, and those who turn aside from the high duty Imposed upon them to engage in other pursuits will me»*t l'? 1 just condemnation. " Ihere Is a higher and a nobler standard made and making by the pe< - pie for all official lifp. and he who fail ; in recognizing the standard will suffer at the hands of the people." One of the most striking features of the convention was its refusal to en dorse Governor Sione's administration. A resolution to that effect was intro duced. but th- committee on platform voted it down unanimously. New Potato Pest. An insect that has made its appear ance in some part- of the State has bt-en christened the potato Jouee for want of a better name. It is a worse pest than the potato bug. for the bugs can be shaken off the potato stalk, but not so the lonse. Paris green will kill the bug. bnt does not appear to have any effect on the lonse. The fanners have tried many ways to get rid of the insect, but so far have not succeeded. The louse is very small, so small as to iie hardly visi ble to the naked eye, and they cover the potato leaves so that scarcely any of the 1 eaf can be seen. They eat the leaf and in a few days it will wither. It does not take long for the insect to destroy acres oi potatoes. l>ou't Kill the liiriis. Prof. Schurr says that a single fly in one season under favorable conditions propagates 130,(XK) Hies, but they have euemies that feed upon them and keep the number down. In the stomach of one bird he found :i,OOO flies and mos quitoes. For this reason alone we should not kill birds. They save us from beinj; eaten tip by insects, and save the farmer's crop. A .>1 iglity Good Act. A bill passed by the legislature and signed bv the governor known as the "butter bill." provides that all pack ages of butter made by working over stale butter and also adding skimmed milk and also ingredients shall be plainly marked with the word 'Ren ovated. " This applies to butter packed away in tubs and crocks during the summer season, and taken out and worked into rolls and offered for sale. The penalties for the violation of the law are quite severe. HQOO'o ril. . v-uro Liver Ills, Bil Easy to take, easy to operate. 25c. "Does your papa ever lick you?" "1 guess not. Every time he threatens to lick me 1 read him an extract from his anti-imperialism speech in which he said: These Filipinos are like way ward children, but have we on that ac count the right to take away their God given privilege to do as they please? Let us treat them as we would our own wayward children, plead with them,be seech them, but never coerce them, with either gun or rod*'" "That's a good deal to remember." "Yes, but lie's got so now that he drops the switch as soon as 1 strike "These Filipinos.' The young men talk of choosing a vocation in life, as if they had to decide between a chance to become a famous writer, lawyer, preacher or a railroad President, says the Atchison Globe. As a matter of fact, they have to hustle to get the humblest job, must take what they can get and work hard to keep it. No man "chooses" anything not even his wife, and after he is married he can't choose what he wants to eat. KbHUMATISM Cl'K/Cn IN A IMY. lis action upon the system is rcirarkable and mysterious.
