Forty million dollars, In the opinion
of tht» members of the Senate Commit
tw on Finance, it the amount of war
taxes levied by the interna' revenue
law which should IH< reduced Accord
ing to the view of the Henxtora, thin in
somewhat less than the reduction made
liy the hill as panned by the House. The
tnemberv <>f the House Wavsaud Means
Committee believe the Senator* juggle
with figures in order to arrive at the re
sult they claim.
The Republican leaders of the House
will not let the body they control ac
cept the reductions proposed by the
Senators in the amended hill reported
to the Senate. If the Senate passes the
amended bill the House leaders will
tight the proposed changes so hard that
the Senate will be brought face to face
with the alternative of a reduction on
the lines propored by the Houfn.; or none
at all. Representative Dalzoll, who in
the absence of Chairman Payno is the
head of tho committee, while not talk
ing for publication, is known to be op
posed to accepting the Senate bill. He
is supported by the other Rep lblican
members.
On Friday the President sent a mess

THE case of that American editor of a
Manila newspaper who lias_been deport
ed from the Philippines, because he
dared to charge official corruption in
the administration of the office of Cap
tain of the Port of Manila, is a beautiful
application of the principle that the
Constitution does not follow the flag.
Edward VII.
With great pomp and pageantry F.d
svard VII. was last Thursday publicly
proclaimed King of Great Britian and
Ireland nnd Emperor of India. In Lon
don the proclamation was made early
in the forenoon at five places. The
forms observed were like those employed
for centuries in the kingdom, and were
objects of great curiosity aad interest.
The King did not appear in connect
ion with any of the ceremonies. Soon
after they had been concluded at the
Royal Exchange King Epward left
Marlborough House to return to the!
Isle of Wight, and as he drove through
the streets to Victoria station ho was
saluted with more enthusiastic cheering
than during his public appearance the
day before.
There was a feeling of keen disap
pointment among the general public at
the way they were cheated out of the
proclamation of the King. The hour
set for it and announced in all the pa
pers was 10 am. The proceedings be
gun at 0 o'clock at St. .Fames Palace,
and were rushed through at the ditfen nt
prescribed places Charing Cross, Tem
ple Itar. Cheapside and the Royal Kx
change with such celerity that the
crowd was of comparatively diminutive
proportions.
This was the object of the court of
flelals. lis they feared tint if the e re
monies were performed al the stated
hour the throng would l> ■ - > dense that
there would tie great difficulty itt get
ting the heralds in their gorg< ons Kilt
tahaids and the tiuuipei>t through
the street". The ceremonies, handed
down from the Middle Ages, were pre
tieftllv *a ne at each point

PKTKtt A. RATTIUAN.
Peter A. Rattigan. editor of the But
ler Herald, while on his way home
Friday evening stopped in the store of
Connell & Groat, talked and joked,
while making purchases, then suddenly
gasped and sank down on his knees,
and in half an hour was dead from ap
oplexy or the bursting of a blood ves
sel hi the brain
Peter A Rat tistau was born iu Pitts
burg. Oct. 18-10, was the sou of Peter
and Anne Snee Kattigan. When a boy
he sold newspapers, learned the print
ing trade on the Pit'sburg Dis
patch, and in 1802 at the age
of 10 enlisted in 00, F. 120 th Pa. ol s,
after having been refused tive times on
account of his youth. At the battle of
Port Royal ho lost the hearing of his
right ear by the explosion of a shell. At
Chancellorsyillo he was wounde<l in
the left foot In IH6B he was honorably
discharged and returned to piinting. In
1808 lie helped establish the Oil City
Times, now Derrick, and later assisted
with the Oil City Herald. Ia 1872 he
retained to Pittsburg and in 1877 went
to Millerstown and established the
Millers town Herald, for many years a
famous Democratic organ. In June
iM,<) »r. Rattigan consolidated his Mill
«rstown llerald with the old Ziegler
Democratic • Herald and since then he
with his sons had bet-n editing the But
ler Herald.
Mr. Rattigan was always prominent
in Democratic politics, having served as
delegate to national and state conven
tions, county chairman and division
chairman. In Millerstown he held the
offices of Burgess. .1 nstice of the Peace,
school director and from 1885 to !M was
Post Master.
He was a member of Rob t McDer

His funeral was held Monday morn
ing in the English Catholic church.
Members of the McDermott Post, G. A.
R., of Millerstown and the A. G. Reed
Post, of Butler, and the local and Mill
erstown Odd Fellows attended.
It is with sincere rtgret that we
chronicle Mr. Rattigan s death. He
was a rival in business and opposite in
politics, but he was sincere in his con
victions and pleasant, genial, clever and
honest as a man, one who held the es
teem and respect of all.

Of Our Competitors
If tliev told the truth concerning the
Chase Brothers, Hackley and Carlisle
Pianos and our manner of dealing with
our customers, we would sell ill the
pianos that are sold in llu'.ler
There are parties who peddle pianos
(as they cannot be called dealers or
merchants, having no legitimate place
of business) who are telling people that
1 "do not keep tnv agreements with my
customers," which statement when they
make it is nil abso'ute lie, anil they tell
this DKMUKKATKLY in order to try to
hurt my business.
Itcginning next week, I shall publish
personal Utters from iny customers, stat
lug HOW they like their pianos and my
way of dealing.

VAHV ANU msWVV.
W'Utu tU« Vuritau passed through the
(ureita ol New England, he realUed that
his greatest dangtr was from hidden
foe* Therefore, he was aruu-d and
vigilant. The enemies a man can see
he can fight, but the enemy that slculks
in darkness unseeu, be he ever so weak,
is to be dreaded by reason of his in
visibility.
The foes that threaten the life to-day
tie all ambushed. There Is no fear of
the "arrow that tlieth by day," for the
day of the arrow is past and gone. But
the " pestilence that walketh in dark
ness," is still a thing of terror, because
it strikes suddenly from ambush.
Let the word pestilence be only whis-
pcred and fear grips the heart. Homes
are forsaken. People flock to the rail
roads frantic to escape from the infected
city. But shout a warning against dvs
pepsia and who is alarmed? Nobody.
Yet dyspepsia in the diseases to which it
tends, is responsible for more deaths an
nually in the United States than pesti
lence could probably claim in a decade.
THE WEAK SPOT
of the modern mail is his stomach. No
man can be stronger than his stomach
because the stomach is in effect the vital
centre of the body. Where does the
heart get its nourishment? From the
(tomacn. Where is the nourishment
prepared for lungs, liver, kidneys and
other organs? All are nourished from
the stomach. Stop putting food into the
stomach and in time the heart stops (jest
ing. We must cat to live. Everybody
knows that. They understand that the
man that isn't fed starves. But what they
(Jon't seem to understand is that starva
tion is just as sure when the man is fed,
if by reason of disease the stomach cannot
convert the food it receives into nutri
tion for the Ijodv and its several organs.
The sign of starvation is emaciation,
loss of flesh. That's the sign of dyspep
sia and weak stomach also. The dys
peptic eats enough but the stomach and
other organs of digestion and nutrition
fail to extract the nourishment from the
food and so the body grows lean and the
Strength of the body is undermined.
DYSPEPSIA AND DEGENERACY.
There is a certain physical degeneracy
which results from dyspepsia. If the
body is not nourished it grows weak,
and' as the l>ody is only a general name
for the sum of hs organs and members,
to speak of the body growing weak
means that the heart is growing weak,
the lungs are growing weak, and that
the liver and kidneys and other organs
are involved in the same '"weakness."
When diseases of the stomach and its
allied organs are cured these dependent
weaknesses are cured also.
" For about two years I suffered from a
very obstinate case of dyspepsia," writes
R. E. Secord. Esq., of IX Eastern Ave..
