Not ail Asset.
(Extracts from ex-Governor Hastings
Speech)
"The Republican party is not an asset
to be bought and sold as the drover
bnya and sells a herd of Cattle. The
true Republican party is an association
of free men, having for its purpose the
advancement of the best interests of
every condition of humanity throughout
the land. Whatever tends to the happi
ness, upbuilding and prosperity of all
the people is a part of onr creed. This
has not been, I am sorry to admit, the
rule followed by those who claim to be
our party leaders. The record of recent
egislation and the work ot these self
appointed leaderu have been fraught
with baleful results. The best interests
of the people of the State were lost sight
of in dishonest and cruel efforts for per
sonal gain, to advance individual ambi
tion and to make impregnable the con
trol by a few men of a political machine
organization, which they wrongfully
call the Republican party. Last fall
when Pennsylvania gave her . plundid
majority to William McKinley the
voters of the State were inuocently
turning the grindstone to sharpen the
knives which were to carve the funda
mental law of the State to atoms and
to rip into shreds laws, elections and
constitutional rights,, to despoil local
and home government and to sell out
for profit the great party of Lincoln
like a flock of sheep.
"Have you ever stopped to think who
they are who have thus trampled under
foot their party's principles, its plat
forms, its traditions and its great
achievements? Can it be laid at the
doors of the men who make up the Re
publican party in Centre county? No,
not one—excepting one. Can it be
charged to the great body of voters wno
have made the Republican majorities
in Philadelphia, in Allegheny, in Lan
caster and other strongholds of Repub
licanism? No ; it is directly chargeable
to those who have trifled with their
pledges and promises and have hood
winked the great Pennsylvania army of
Republicanism until securely seated in
place and power, where the dignity,
the honor, the efficiency and the author
ity of official station have been pervert
ed to the basest uses for personal emol
ument and official security.
"You have seen men, elected to repre
sent the people and their best interest,
basely sell their birthright for a mess of
pottage secretly paid them by those
who assume to be the sages and prophets
and the leaders of Republicanism."
"Yon have witnessed the adroit nseof
legislative machinery, caawling like a
reptile by devious ways and into the
darkness of assumed ignorance of the
general public, to draw forth the money
in the public treasury to pay the price
of official perfidy.
•'You haye witnessed the betrayal of
a publicly expressed pledge to give to
yon a ballot law that would correct the
evils of the existing statute and provide
surer protection against election frauds
and ballot box stuffers. This pledge
you have seen wilfully ignored by the
authority of its maker, moreover the
attempt made by the honest Democratic
members of the recent Legislature to
carry out the will of their party for
ballot reform was by the same au
thority persistently opposed and finally
thwarted.
"You have witnessed the consumma
tion of legislation to overthrow the gov
ernment of great municipalities, and to
deprive citizens of the just fruit of their
ballot, all for the purpose of promot
ing a friend, punishing an enemy, or
of advancing selfish interests or political
ambitions. The precedents which have
been thus established, if not overthrown
bnt carried to their logical result, may
any day return to plague the people who
permit it by substituting the will of a
single official for the inalienable right of
self-government. It is revolutionary
and among the boldest efforts of recent
years to overthrow free American gov
ernment.
"You have beheld the legislative sale
of almost invaluable franchises to a self
constituted few, whereby millions of
dollars have gone into their individual
pockets instead of the public treasury
where it belonged.
"Yon have witnessed the legislation
which has created judges where the
people of the counties themselves pro
tested against the alleged necessity and
the expense. Do you ask why? Be
cause there were political debts to pay
those debts, regardless of expense, neces
sity or the will of the people.
"You have seen courts and judges and
judicial patronage, the rural postmaster
and other Federal office-holders hurried
to the support of the central power by
specious promises of better and other of
fices or tnreits of removal from those
held. You have seen a judicial and
Congressional apportionment, which
outstripped in intricacy the famed
puzzle of the Chinese, solely for the
purpose of rewarding a friend or punish
ing an enemy.
"If you have watched the recent
course of legislation you have seen le
gislators complied to vote for measures
at which they revolted, in the fear of
offending a power that could deprive
worthy local charities of the usual and
necessary State support. The present
system of State support for charities
should be corrected. It places every
such charitable asylnm or institution at
the mercy of the designing politician
and constitutes every unfortunate in
mate a club to compel those who stand
sponsors for them to yield to the de
mands of an arrogant boss or endure the
consequences of refusal.
"These are but a tithe of the whole
lamentable recital which has continued
until the fair name of Pennsylvania has
become a by-word in her sister States.
Is it possible that the public sense of
right and justice has become so blunted
or so calloused that the true Republi
cans in Pennsylvania will not rise in
their sovereign might and drive from
place and power those who have profit
ed by this domination, who are respon
sible for it, who manage it,
and who claim that they
themselves are the Republican party of
the State? They do not constitute one
half of 1 per cent, of the great Republi
can host of Pennsylvania, while they
and their adherents all told are not
more than 10 per cent, of the full
strength of the party.
"The three tailors in Tooly street,
London, who issued a proclamation in
which they heralded themselves as ' We
the people of England,' were not more
swelled with the sense of their impor
tance than th'i self-constituted coterie
who proclaim themselves as We. the
Republican party of Pennsylvania.'
"In my judgement there is but one
remedy for these wrongs: Let the great
body of Republicans in Pennsylvania
rise in their might and elect tried and
true representatives to their conven
tion ; let these representatives select men
of unimpeachable Republicanism, per
sonal character and fitness for the
offices to be filled. Let them go to the
polls and exercise their sovereignty,
see to it that it is lawfully registered
and elect their servants In a single
day the political tailors would be thus
placed out of business.
AT a battle fought in Venezuela last
week, the rebel army was defeated,
with the loss of 900 men.
The Strike.
The entire Executive Board of the
Amalgamated Association left ou the
Pittsburg limited last Friday night for
New York to confer with J. Pierpont
Morgan.
The "conference took place next day
but it was said to have been more of a
lecture on the part of Morgan, who did
all the talking, would listen to no prop
ositions, and left the room in a rage.
On Monday President Shaffer of the
A. A. sent a ten days notice of the pro
pof 'd geueral "strike" to the steel com
panies, bnt peace was not yet considered
an impossibility.
n a Tuesday President Shaffer issned

Thursday. The freight train was wait
ing on the B. R. & P. local freight from
Butler at Harmony Junction, and the

was only 50 yards from his train which
stood near a "curve and was hid by the
hill. The locomotive of the passenger
and the caboose of the freight were
wrecked. The engineer and fireman of
the passenger train jumped. The fire
man was badly bruised in jumping. All

Obituary.
MAJ. GEN. JAS. S. NEGLEY.

was apprehended by his family and

to his bed last Saturday. His death

Myrtle, eldest daughter of Earl Ht s

The disease which took hold of b( r
was some time in doing its fatal work
For eighteen weeks she was confined to
the house and almost the same length
of tme to her bed. During her sick
ness even to the yery last she exercised
the greatest patience. Until a short
time before her death she thought or
hoped that she might get around again.
But when she found that her getting
well again was impossible she bravely
surrendered. She being just a little
more than twenty-one years of age it
was natural that she should say, ■ I
would like to live longer but she als>
added "if it is the Lord's will for me
die I am willing to go."
Myrtle was an upright Christian
young lady being held in high esteem
by the community in which she lived
She was a member of the First Chi pel

will be missed not only by her fatb t-.

their loss: but also a circle of
friends. E. P. H.
