The many malicious personal attacks on Gov. Roosevelt in his campaign speaking ought to have the effect on every Now York voter, Democrat or Republican, of causing him to vote for McKinley and Roosevelt on the Repub lican ticket simply to disown the indig nities heaped upon the person of their chief state executive and to punish the attempted preventation of free speech. Its a sorry spectacle the old Democratic party makes of itself when it tries to prevent an opponent from being heard. Henry C Payne's forecast of the com ing Presidential election is as follows. ——For McKinley: California, 9; Connec ticut, 6; Illinois, 24; Indiana, 15; lowa, 13; Kansas, 10; Maine, 6; Massachusetts, 18; Michigan, 14; Minnesota, 9, New Hampshire, 4; New Jersey, 10; New York, 36, North Dakota, 8; Ohio, 23; Oregon. 4; Pennsylvania, 32; Rhode Island. 4; South Dakota, 4; Vermont, 4: Washington. 4: West Virginia 6; Wis consin, 12; Wyoming, 3.

The Kittaning "Free Press'' of last week had the following on the situation in Armstrong Co. Our Democratic friends would like to place some claim on Joel Crawford, one of our candidates for Assembly. How ever, such a scheme don't go in this country, and Mr. Crawford is one of the old stalwar te that owes nothing to the Democratic party. He has always been a Republican and lias never asked for Democratic favor?. Twice has he been elected Prothonotary without Democratic aid and his party nominat ed him for Assembly. He asked for the nomination and got it and is a straight-out-Republican nominee, The Democrats, knowing that they could not defeat Crawford, his popularity being such that all their abuse in past cam paignes could not keep him down,indors ed him. His election was an assured fact. Now they come around with the baby plea; "We were magnanimous we indorsed Crawford, because we have conceded you one member of the Leg islature you should give us the other." Did you ever hear of such an idea? A minority party conceding the majority party one of the members of the Legis lature. This is a new kind of magna nimity. In fact it is burlesque. The idea of asking a Republican to vote for J. W King because the Democrats in dorse 1 Crawford ia grotesque, They must think the Republican party in this country is composed of a lot of fools to be drawn into such a scheme as this. As well might Jimmy Gallaher ask you to give him a pig because he bought one off a Republican over in North Buffalo township last fall, think ing thereby to gain a vote for Judge Rayburn THE authorities of New York city ob ject to the burning of soft coal in that city. They don't want their town turn ed" into a second Pittsburg. Coke, however, is a good substitute for hard coal, and the miners strike has boomed the coke trade. AT the convention of miners held in Scranton, last week, it was agreed to accept the ten per cent, offered by the operators, provided the sliding scale is atjolished and a specified period is fixed for the new rate.

The Carnegie Steel Company late ly concluded the chartering of fonr of the new stylo lake-ocean vessels from the Lake Superior Power Company and early in November it will send them across the Atlantic to Wales with steel billets and tinplate bars. This marks the beginning of the aggressive attempt of the Carnegie Company to invade the markets of the world, despite the refus al of the railroal combination to grant concessions in freight rates of exports to the seaboard, and the shipments will be the first in the history of the coun try where steel has been sent from Lake Erie ports to England without bulk having been broken. The move vir tually makes Conneaut harbor, the northern terminus of the Pittsburg. Bessemer & Lake Erie railroad, a port of export in the open season. The scheme for overcoming the obsta cles placed in the way by the railroads has largely been the result of the tire less work of George E.MeCague, gener al freight agent of the Carnegie Compa ny. The steel company has been watching and studying the situation for some time, and recently negotiations for were opened with the Lake Superior Power Company for the chartering of the Monks, Haven Paliki. Leafield and Theana for the coming trip. The vessels were purchased by the power company in England and or way, where they were used in the coast ing trade, and they were brought to America Across the Atlantic with car goes of coal and bricks and placed in service in the ore-carrying trade in the Great Lakes the past summer. A large amount of Pittsburg capital is invested in the power company, John Pitcairn President of the Pittsburg Plate Glass Company, having about $3, 000,000 in the great plants and properties in and near the St. Marie canal. The closing of the lake season will render the boats useless until next spring, and the power company is de termined to send them to the Atlantic to engage in the coasting trade until the ice leaves the Great Lakes. The boats will be brought to Conneaut harbor with iron ore, and on November 5 the Carnegie Steel Company will be gin loading the steel billets and sheet bars at its Conneaut docks. Each ves sels will be loaded with 1,000 ton of steel. This will bring the draught to 14 feet, the limit of the locks in the Welland Canal. The boat* now build ing in American lake yards for the lake ocean service will be able to carry 2,500 tons through the canal. Harmony and Zelienople. Born to Mr. and Mrs. U. H.

Isaac Black, extolled the people here for their general intelligence, he had kept track of Pros pect affairs theongh some one who cal ed liim or herself "Joe Cosity'', who was likely some good looking lady.

Mr. McJunkin intelligently and in a business-like way discussed the issues of the campaign, and advised the Re publicans to support their nominees The band then discoursed some lively music, when S. F. Bowser was introduc ed. Mr. Bowser said he had made so many speeches in Prospect that he too was almost identified with the people of Prospect. He dwelr, upon the voter's re sponsibility, and produced figures to show the benefits of a protective tariff.

The congregation of Summit Presby terian church gave a social in the church on Thursday evening, Oct., 11 for the purpose of meeting and becoming bet ter acquainted with their pastor. The weather was ideal. It was just cool enough to be pleasant and a nearly full moon added much to the beauty of of the evening. The crowd began to gather about 7.00 and by 8.30 the church was well filled. A brief program was rendered. Rev. Worrell sang two songs which were highly appreciated. Miss Vella Tinker recited in her usual pleasing manner. Several selections of special music were rendered by the choir. A parody, on Maud Muller. entitled the Bloomer Girl, written and recited by Mr. Alex Hays, elicited a storm of merited ap plause. At the close of the program re freshments were served. All seemed to have spent a very enjoyable evening and it is not to much to say that pastor aed people will be mutually benefitted by their coming together. L. FULL DINNER PAIL NOT A SORDID EMBLEM In the course of a recent interview in favor of the re-election of President McKinley, former President Harrison, among other things, said: "His (Bryan's) election would, I think, throw governmental business affairs into confusion. We should not aid the election of a president who would, admittedly, if he could, destroy the gold standard and other things that we value even more upon the de- EX-PRESIDEXT HARRISON, ceptive suggestion that, he has been bound—that the Republican party will after defeat stili have strength enough to save the temple. It will be much better not to allow the men with de structive tendencies so much as to lean against the pillars. "The economic policies of the Repub lican party have been vindicated by the remarkable and general prosperity that has developed during Mr. McKlnley'a administration —succeeding a period of great depression. A change of admin istration would almost certainly renew conditions from which we have so hap pily escaped. "The full dinner pail is not a sordid emblem. It has a spiritual significance for the spiritually minded. It means more comfort for the man and family, more schooling and less work for the children, and a margin and saving for sickness and old age." Senator Tillman says the Pennsylva nia coal miners are "a lot of ignorant, poor foreigners," and adds that he would rather be a "southern nigger" than one of them. The senator has given the Pennsylvania miners a lather vivid insight of the Democratic opinion of them. West Sun bury. Mrs. Ida Shull has built a fine resi dence and expects to move in this Week.
