POLITICAL.
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

Island. 4; South Dakota, 4; Vermont, 4:
Washington. 4: West Virginia 6; Wis
consin, 12; Wyoming, 3. Total, 276.
For Bryan: Alabama, 11; Arkansas, 8;
Florida, 4; Georgia. 13; Louisiana, 8;
Mississippi, 9; Montana. 3; North Caro
lina,ll; South Carolina. 9; Tennessee,

tucky, 13; Maryland, 8: Nebraska. 8;

Sixty to forty in favor Democrats:

Total, 27.
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.
Petrolia.
Mrs. Fred Hinch is in Pittsburg visit
ing her sister Callie.
Mrs. S. E. Brown went to Pittsburg

man's millinery, spent Sunday with her

Dr. S. N. Andre went on Thursdav to
Philadelphia to Jefferson Medical Col
lege to attend a course of lectures.

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.

tificate here from Supt. Isaac Black,
extolled the people here for their general
intelligence, he had kept track of Pros

ed liim or herself "Joe Cosity'', who
was likely some good looking lady. Mr.

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.
He also showed the fallacy of the free
silver cry, which was born of the free
silver trust, of which \V. J. Bryan was
the chief actor and exponent.

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.
