At Washington, Thursday, there was
some talk of Penrose resigning, and Gov.
Stone api>ointing Quay in his place but
there was nothing of it. The Pittsburg
Times correspondent said that the
Quay people are still very bitter against
Senators Vest and Hanna. So far as
the former is concerned, he merely kept
his record on such cases straight, and
the claim that his vote would have
seated Col. Quay is not based upon a
knowledge of all the facts in the case.
Senator Pettigrew, of South D.ikota, did
not yote, but it is well known that, had
Mr. Vest voted for Quay, Pettigrew
would have voted against him and the
result would have been unchang
ed. The same state of affairs existed
with regard to Senator Clark, of Mon
tana. Had he voted to seat Col. Quay,
Senators Spooner and Chandler, and in
all probability Senator Lodge also, would
have voted against him. Quay was
bound to have been beaten, no matter
how Vest or Clark had voted. The sen
ators most criticized here are Davis, of
Minnesota, and Cullom. of Illinois,
being the most prominent who reversed
their records on a purely constitutional
question for personal reasons, and voted
to seat Col. Quay. They have fallen
decidedly in the general estimation.
If it be true that Senator Carter, of
Montana, another of those who changed
front on the question, is threatening
that the Shipping bill will be defeated
in revenge for Senator Hanna voting
against Quay, it only shows what a
"cheap skate" he really is. The Ship
ping bill is before Congress to carry out
an official repeated pledge in Republican
National platforms, and when men like
Mr. Carter try to defeat their party on a
National question l<ecause some senator
dared vote against one of their personal
friends, they will speedily feel the
weight of popular indignation. Senator
Hanna never promised to vote for Col.
Quay. On the contrary, from the very
first he said it was a purely constitutional
question and that he intended to be
guided in voting on it solely by his ideas
of what was its proper solution. "
Gn Friday an effort was made to fix a
time for a yote on the Clark case, but
Clark's friends played for delay:
Henry Hall writing to the Times
said there is an aftermath in the Quay
case in the differences which have arisen
between senators from certain states
over the way they voted. In North
Dakota, Senator Hansbrough voted to
seat Col. Quay, while his colleague.
Senator McCnmber, voted against him.
This seems to have made Hansbrough
very angry and he is reported to be cir
culating a letter in which McCumber is
alleged to have promised to vote for
Quay. In his speech Mr. McCumber
stated that when he first read the con
stitutional provision relative to senator
ial vacancies, he had thought that the
word "hapi>en" was equivalent to the
word "occur" and that the word "other
wise" included all possible causes of va
cancy. A closer analysis of the clause,
however, and a study of the debates in
the constitutional convention, had led
him to change his earlier views. It is
possible, therefore, tliatSenator McCnm
ber did at first indicate an intention to
vote for Col. Quay. It is well known
that all the new senators were approach
ed in Col. Quay's interest as soon as
Congress met, and possibly earlier.
They were not given any time to con- 1
sider the case or permitted to await the
committee's action, but every effort was
made to have them blindly commit
themselves to the Quay side.
The Mississippi senators, Money and :
Sullivan, are reported to Is; decidedly
on the outs over the Quay case. Money
voted against seating, while Sullivan 1
voted for it, following his purpose de- 1
clared last fall before Congress met. 1
This shows how much consideration ]
he gave the case before announcing how I
he would vote. It is stated that Sulli- <
van, in defending himself against 1
Money's criticisms, is circulating ex- i
tracts from a speech made in the House <
some years ago by R. P. Kennedy, He 1
publican, formerly lieutenant governor 1
of and representative from Onio, in <
which Kennedy made a somewhat sen- 1
sational attack npon Col. Quay, chartt- ]
inj£ him. anions other things, with 1
being responsible for the defeat of the (
bill to regulate Federal elections, com
monly called the "Force bill." Tin* ]
South was very bitterly opj»ose(l to this
measure and it will be remembered that 1
when Representative J. C. Sibley came
to Harrisburg during the senatorial i
deadlock in lbW. and tried to indnce the 1
Democratic members to vote for Quay, I
he brought letters from Senators Vest, I
Tillman, and Blackburn, in which tliey |
urged the members to do this, if tliey 1
could not elect Jenks, and gave as a I
reason the fact that Quay had. opposed 1
the "Force bill."
There was also a story that Senators
Srwell and Kean of New Jersey, had
quarreled over the latter's pairing
against Quay, but Mr. Kean denies it.
He says that Gen. Sewell wanted him
to vote the other way, but that there
has lieeu no qua rrel between tliem be
cause he did not accede to his wishes in
the matter.
IT is amusing to men, who for years
have advocated the election of President
and United States Senators by the popu
lar vote, to now see the Quay papers 1
advocating the same. But they don't
mean it. By the popular vote it is not
likely that Quay nor the Cam* rons be
fore him would ever have held seats in
the U. S. Senate chamber.

BUTLER.
A broken, and hilly county, establish
ed by the legislature the 12th of March,
I*oo. It was originally a part of Alle
ghany county. Butler is 30 miles long,
and 25 broad, containing 40t>, acres.
It is bounded N. by Venango, N. W. by
Mercer. W. by Beaver, E. by Arm
strong, and S. by Alleghany county. In
1800. it contained :J,91-5 free persons,
and 1 slave. The principal creek is the
Cannaughqnenesing, and its tributary
streams, which water a considerable
part of the county. The Auxiliary
streams of several other creeks, which
fall into Allegheny river, have their
sources in the S. E. and E. parts of the
county. Although the lands are hilly,
and broken, in many places, there are
some rich valleys, interspersed in dif
ferent parts of the county. For the
representatives, see Beaver. It gave,
in 1805, on the election of governor,
votes.

Pittsburg April 28, 1900.
Hon. John H. Negley,
President, Butler Co. Centennial,
Dear Sir:
The former citizens of Butler county,
now residing ift Allegheny county, are
taking a lively interest in the prepara
tions for celebrating the 100 th anniver
sary of the erection of Butler county.
Allow me to suggest that iu my judg
ment it will to a useless task to under
take to send invitations to the Butler
county people now residing elsewhere.
It is impossible to get them all, and un
less you get all or nearly so it would be
better to send none. Th" newspapers
have already carried the news to them,
scattered as they are through nearly
every state and territory in the nation.
I am doing my best to send some in
teresting relics of the olden time. My
grandfather, Joseph Blakeley. bought a
settlement right from Adam Johnston
for a tract of land in Forward twp. on
which he located in 1794. There were,
as I heard him say, no doctors nearer
than Pittsburg, bat the women folks
cured nearly all ordinary diseases with
herbs, but they could not manage the
toothache, esjjecially when the tooth
was "far spent". So he sent to Pitts
burg for the instrument used for pull
ing teeth in that day. After waiting
quite a while it came, and he soon aft r
wards got an improved one and used
them, pulling teeth for the people in the
country around for many years. My
nephew, Dr. U. L. Cookson, of Gallery,
has these instruments now, curiosities
thev are. and will have them in hands
of your Committee.
I also send yotrto day a Geographical
History of Pennsylvania, published in
18IH(, in which yon will find a descrip
tion and statistics of Butler county,
which I request you to publish for the
information of ail and return the book
to me, as I will need it before your Cen
tennial, but will send it out in my col
lection then. You will find Butler 011
page 1 H-l It may surprise some people
to learn that at one time Butler county
had one slave, held by some good chris
tan man or woman in Middlesex twp.
Yours truly,
ARCHIBALD BLAKELEY.
Letter from Simeon Nixon.
Los Angeles, Cal., 1
April 20, 1900. (
JOHN H. NEGLEY, ESQ., Dear sir:
I have been thinking of old times . -id
finding this list* of many you know.
I send it to you, and hope there are ma
ny of them preserved as there were two
thousand of them published but how
soon these things are lost. I think you
would enjoy reading it over once and
fearing vou had no copy I send yon this.
MePberrin Sullivan and Thos. Martin
were my right hand men in encourage
ing me to publish this list and now they
are both dead.
I hope you will live to enjoy the .Tune
Celebration, and am sorry I cannot be
with you. And how sad I feel that
Hamell. Renfrew, Mitchell, McCrea
and others could not haye stayed a lit
tle longer.
I sent, my grandfather's almanac (126
years old) to A. E. Reiber as my exhib
it.
The purpose of this little advertise
tisement was to call the attention of the
living to the fact that Butler's old com
mons (as it was called) which would
have made a small park and would have
added to the health and beauty of the
town, had been sold and built up, and
it was the opinion of many that this
last resting place of our dead should be
respected and made into a park.
1 feel glad that such was the decision
of the courts and of the people, and to
day I feel like returning my thanks to
all whose adv. appears on the list, and
to all our old citizens who rallied to the
defence of the first grave yard in But
ler. One of these lists might be tacked
up at the old cemetery during the Cele
bration.
I close, for tongue cannot tell, or pen
describe, the ties that bind us to the
past, nor the wonders and hopes for the
unknown future; but let us honor our
fathers and mothers upon this occasion,
and long live their memory.

We shall miss thee, sadly miss thee,
In our earthly home below.
Where there are so many sorrows,
That in Heaven w.* ne'er shall know.
We miss thee from thy home dear Floyd
We miss thee from thy place.
A shadow o'er our life is cast,
We miss the sun-shine of thy face
Now we liereft must do without thee,
As God our father willed.
There is a vacant chair at home,
Which never can be filled.
We hoped that God would let thee live.
For many happy years.
Bat He from earth did call thee home
And we are left alone in tears
T'was hard to part with thee, dear
Floyd.
I Whom we so fondly loved,
But now it soothes our aching hearts.
To know thou art at home above.
