THE CITIZEN. WILLIAM O.NEGLEY -- Publisher THURSDAY. NOVEMBER 23, 1899 Will Quay be Admitted. Congress meets next Monday week, and on the question of ex-Senator Quav's admission as a member of the Senate, the Pittsburg Times says: "That body must soon take up this important question. Even were there not an unbroken line of precedents ex tending from the earliest years of Fed eral history down to the last Congress against seating appointees to the senate in cases where Legislatures had failed to elect, it is difficult to see how the Senate can constitutionally seat Col. Quay upon the credentials which he will present to that body. There are but two ways in which a title to a seat in the United States Senate can be given—election by a Leg islature and, under certain constitution al limitations, appointment by the Governor That Col. Quay was not elected by the Legislature is not in dis pute. The Constitution ot the United States thus regulates the power of ap pointment by the Governor of any State: And if vacancies happen, by resigna tion or otherwise, during the recess of the Legislature of any State, the execu tive thereof may make temporary ap pointments until the next meeting of the Legislature, which shall then fill the vacancy. The vacancy in one of the United States Senatorships from Pennsylvania did not occur "during the recess of the Legislature." It occurred on March 4, 1899, when the Legislature was not only in session, but was balloting daily for a Senator to fill it. In strict pursuance of the law governing Senatorial elec tions, it continued to ballot daily until adjournment. It was a plain, clear case of a Legislature failing to elect, and was in no sense a case which made it proper and right for the Governor to appoint. So plain and clear was the case that Gov. Stone himself recognized it. The Constitution of Pennsylvania thus pro vides: In case of a vacancy in the office of United States Senator from this Com monwealth in a recess between sessions, the Governor shall convene the two houses, by proclamation, on notice not exceeding sixty days, to fill the same. This is the constitutional mandate. Gov. Stone did not "convene the two houses, by proclamation, on notice not exceeding sixty days, to fill the same." He appointed Col. Quay to the Senatori al vacancy. By this very act ad mitted that this vacancy did not happen "during the recess of the Legislature." Either he made that admission or he deliberately violated the Constitution of Pennsylvania by not convening the Legislature. But that the Legislature was not in recess is too patent to need argument. It is a matter of common knowledge. Then, since the executive of any State is only empowered to ap point a Senator when a vacancy hap pens "during the recess of the Legisla ture," Gov. Stone's appointment of Col. Quay is without warrant of either the Federal or the State Constitution. The personality of the appointee to the United States Senate does not enter into this question, nor has it any bear ing whatever upon it. The sole issue is one of constitutional power and right, stand above the personality or aspira tions of any man." THE administration has taken a for ward step of far-reaching importance in directing the American ambassadors to obtain from the governments of France, Germany and Russia written assurances that our trade with China will not be discriminated against in the regions that have come under their control. The request for such assurances is more than a public announcement of our Chinese policy. It is the first fruit of onr new position in the Pacific; it is the first and most inevitable consequence of the Spanish war. Political. The Goebelites tried to ha\e the whole vote of Louisville, thrown ont, because Gov. Bradley ordered out the militia. The official vote of Kentucky gives Taylor, Rep., for Governor, n majority of 2.232 over Goebel. Samuel Salter, deputy coroner of Philadelphia; Joseph G. Rod iters, lieu tenant of the capital police, Washing ton, D. C., and Clarence Meeser, em ployed in the copyright division of the Congressional library, were last Friday held in SI,BOO bail for trial on the charge of conspiracy to make fraudulent elec tion returns in Philadelphia. The ar rest of the three men was the outcome of testimony adduced at the hearing last week of several residents of Wash ington. who had been arrested in Phil adelphia on a similar charge. Voting machines were used at the re cent election in Buffalo, Rochester and Ithaca, N. Y. All these points report the most favorable and satisfactory re sults. In Ithaca, for example, the full returns were known within 17 minutes after the polls closed. Over in Westmoreland county the Prothonotary and leaders of both parties pot on five watchers who stayed up all night and watched the Prothonotary's office in order to see that the election returns were not tampered with. On account of the closeness of the Judicial contest it was rumored that an effort would be made to change the returns. Ex-Lieut. Gov. L. A. Watres attend ed the meeting of Independent Repub licans at Philadelphia. Tuesday, and afterwards expressed himself as follows: "As the gathering was one of Repub licans who are anxious to bririK about ft better condition in the politics of the State, I attended the meeting, believing as I do that the necessity exists for bet ter methods in the conduct of public affairs. I may have something definite to say later on." LYIJDITE, a new explosive used by the British in the shells which they are throwning at the Boers which surround Ladysmith, causes frightful havoc. We are informed that "Boers fell dead in heaps at every explosion of one of these sheila, big siege guns were dis mounted. and so awful was the slaugh ter that General Joubert se.it a formal note to General White protesting againt the use of Lyddite as unfair in war between civilized nations." THE AFRICAN WAH. A native who arrived at the English camp at Estcourt last Thursday, report ed a severe engagement as having taken place on the loth, during which the Boer's General Joubert was killed, but it was afterwards denied. The Boers captured several armored trains from the English, and were yet bombarding Ladysmith. while a large force was moving south on Estcourt where a great battle will probably be fought. THE PHILIPPINE REPOKT. The preliminary report of the Philippine Commission is by far the most import ant contribution that has been made to onr knowledge of the situation in the archipelago and towards a right under standing of our obligations and duties there. It was written after a thorough investigation by men who wished to find out the truth It is authoritative and, for present purposes, fiDal. To our thinking, it leaves no room for further controversary The conclusions of the commissioners are not a mere matter of opinion, but are supported by a large mass of evi dence, which will be presented with their final report. The most important facts shown are these: 1. We made no alliance with Agnin aldo. 2. He deliberately provoked war with us. 3. His insurrection is not a struggle for independence in any such sense as the struggle of the American colonists was; for if he could succeed in war, his success would be followed by anarchy. 4. The inhabitants of Luzon, as well as of the other islands, are yet incapable of self government, and our plain duty is to help them towards it. The only way to help them is at present to gov ern them, and gradually to lead them to an understanding of the fundamental principles of government, of which they are yet ignorant. 5. The beginnings of self government under our guidance in the towns where it has already been inaugurated promise well. fi The only honorable and possible thing to do is to hold the archipelago, and to develop both its jieople and its re sources, which are valuable. There can be no room for argument, it seems to us, about these fundamental propositions, which are all fortified by Mr. Worcester in this number of the Weekly. Mr. Worcester is the highest authority that we have on the condition of civilization, as well as on the natnral history, of the archipelago—a scientific student both of the people, whose lan guage he speaks and whom he has known for many years, and of the re sources of thf islands. He was once op posed to our permanent occupation, but he now regards it as our duty. The testimony of puch a man is worth a worldful of sentimental and academic literature and mere political talk.— Har pers Weekly. THE wonderful ability of the Japa nese is shown by the fact that almost everywhere in that country English and American instructors in the colleges and factories are being supplanted by natives. They wish it plainly under stood, says Commercial Intelligence, that Japan is for the Japanese. A student at the university planned a work of great interest. He conceived the idea of building a canal to connect two lakes of different altitudes. He tunneled mountains and overcame other difficulties, but the chief point of inter est lies in the fact that he built a rail road over which the canal boats were transported as they left the water to the next lake. Electricity was used, and enough was generated to light the city of Kioto and furnish power to sixty factories. Samuel Uusscll. MR.

Several of the townships and boroughs returned no delegates. Butler borough was represented by the original central committee of ten. After roll call it was decided on motion of K. Marshall to celebrato in 1900, and on motion of Henrv Niece. Jolin H. Negley was made permanent chairman. James A. McKee and A. E. Reilei were made temporary secretaries, and later with Capt. H. A. Ay res were made permanent secretaries, on motion of K. Marshall A. L. Campbell of Petrolia and G. D. Swain of Harmony weie elected vice presidents, and Dr. John M. Leighnerof Butler, treasurer. TiVn the convention was ready to se ' • Vi„i *_ i.„ orat J *— After some discussion Kev. moved that May 22-15 be settled upon, J. A. McCafferty offered an amendment fixing June 10, 12 or 15, because then the days were long and pleasant and there would be a full moon to drive home by. Someone favored Wie Indian Summer days of October, when the roads are best. Joseph Vanderlin, Esq. and M. N. Greer favored July 4tb. Then sentiment seemed to s>ving in fa vor of Independence Day and A. L Campbell offered an amendment for its selection, but it was lost on vote, after much emphatic discussion. Dr. Leighner then moved that a com mittee of five be appointed by the chairman to fix a date sometime be tween the Ist ami 20th of June, taking such a one as will not conflict with the Beaver county celebration, June 11th, nor that of any neighboring county,nor presidential conventions, and report their decision by New Year's Day. A. L. Campbell offered an amendment to make to make this an executive com mittee to have charge of all arrange ments for the centennial and increasing its number to fifteen, to be appointed by the chairman from any citizens of the county. The amendment was adopted and the motion carried as amended. The convention then made Mr. Meg ley chairman of the executive commit tee. It was then moved and carried that the delegates returned continue to act as committees of arrangements /or their respective districts, anyplace not repre sented being urged to elect some repre sentative. A hearty vote of thanks, proposed l>y J. F. Shannon was then tendered the V. M. C. A. for the use of the hall and the convention adjourned. The general idea which seemed to pervade the convention was that one great, big day's celebration should make up the county's liirthday paity and the members aimed to select a time which would be most suitable t > those who would have to drive long distances to Butler. They settled on tb<; forepart of .lane because in this month the clays arc long est. the weather usually pleasant and not yet oppressively warm, the roads good, a time of slight respite in farm work, and for moonlight for night traveling full moon coming on .1 tine 12. Commit tees on finance, program, pa rade, printing, music, entertainment, sports, etc., will likely he appointed by the Executive Committee at an early meeting, and then every one will begin to prepare and look forward to Butler County 's Centennial.
