One of the most surprising results of
the late election was the election of Mc-
Collnm, Prohib., as Sheriff of Venango
county. His vote was 2828, while that
of Shaner, the Republican nominee was
2805; and White, Dem., 1265. The total
vote polfed was 6898, of which the Re
publican state ticket received 2159, the
balance being nearly equally divided be
tween the Dems. and Prohibs.
Mercer county gave the Republican
state ticket about a 1000 majority, but
Garts. R. for Poor Director had but 42
oyer Eriser, D.
Although Gov. Stone is extremely re
ticent concerning the Pittsburg politi
cal situation ami refuses to discuss it,
the general opinion her« is that Record
er A. M. Brown is to be removed and
ex-Director of Public Safety, J. O
Brown appointed in his place. It is said
that Senator Flinn and his friends have
this assnrance from the Governor and
the change is expected within the com
ing week.
The official vote of Cambria county
was not concluded until Saturday.
From Wednesday morning until late
Friday night hundreds of citizens from
all parts of the count}- guarded the
courthouse day and night, a man named
Balsinger.in particular patroling on the
outside with a Springfield rifle. It was
feared that the returns might be trifled
with, and the long delay in counting
the votes whetted this suspicion. The
official vote gives O'Conner, Dem. and
Union, a majority of 71, over Judge
Barker, who was a candidate for re
election. Besides being Judge, Barker
was the local political boss and an arm
ed mob around his Court House was a
sad commentary on his judicial career.
MoKinley's plurality in the county was
3,308. Barker presided in Butlerduring
the Braun divorce case.
The Philadelphia Press has declared
for a contest of the recent election in
Philadelphia. The demand is based
upon the statement that the vote cast
for District Attorney was greater than
that ca*t for the State offices and great
er than that for President last year.
This it considers indubitable evidence
of fraud, and charges that 40.000 illegal
votes were cast or counted. If this as
sertion can be proved it would, of
course, mean a reversal of the declared
result of the election in Philadelphia
and in the State.
In the city of Buffalo on the eveninir
of election day the vote of 106 out of 108
election districts svas made known at
the City Hall within 35 minutes after
the closing of the polls.
This is especially significant to those
who noticed that night that not a word
was received of the vote in Philadelphia
for four or five hours after the closing
of the polls. Then the wards in control
1 of the city machine returned more votes
for the Republican candidates than were
cast for President McKinley, though
the Republican vote in the entire city
was 4(1,000 short of McKinley's vote.
In this contrast we may discover a
reason for the machine opposition to the
constitutional amendment making it
possible for the Legislature to authorize
the use of voting machines. It is plain
that the voting machine would never
do for such methods as those of the
Philadelphia machine. The two ma
chines cannot work together in har
mony.- Ex
Commercial Feeding Stuffs.
A law enacted by the late legislature,
and made operative on the Ist of Octo
ber, 1901. provides that what are called
"concentrated commercial feeding
Btuffs"--sach as linseed, rice, cotton
seed and gluten meals; maize, starch
and sugar feeds, malt sprouts, etc.—of
fered for sale in this state, shall have
affixed to each sack or package a state
ment of its contents or constituents,
with name and address of the manufac
turer; and any person selling or offering
to sell such feed, without such state
ment or guarantee affixed makes him
self subject to a fine of from SSO to SIOO,
and imprisonment in the county jail for
from 10 to 30 days.
Any person can make the information
and any Justice of the Peace can hear
aud determine the case or hold the ac
cused for court.
The law, also, forbids the mixing of
any mineral substances with feeding
stuff, and provides for the inspection of
samples by the Secretary of Agricul
ture, etc.
Oae of our millers informs us that
these mixed and adulterated foods are
being sold in this county, without these
statements attached, and at less prices
than grain foods can be made for.

A Protest.
Action taken by the Congregation of
the Presbyterian church of Concord in
convention'assembled, November 3rd,
1901.
• Whereas, Section o of the Sunday
laws of Pennsylvania reads thus: "Pro
fanation of the Lords day. is an olfense
against God and religion; for besides
the notorious iudeceney and scandal of
permiting any secular business to be
publicly transacted on that day, in a
country professing Christianity;and the
corruption of morals which usually fol
lows its profanation: the keeping of one
day m seven holy as a time of relaxation
and refreshment, as well as for public
worship, is of admirable service to a
State, considered merely as a civil insti
tution. It enables the industrious
workman to pursue his occupation in
the ensuing week with health and cheer
fulness; it imprints on the minds of the
people that sense of their duty to God,
so necessary to make them good citizens;
but which would be worn out and de
faced by unremitted continuance of
labor, without any stated times of re
calling to the worship of their Maker,
and whereas.
The oil industry in our community
Has brought with it many violations of
both the civil and the Divine law in re
gard to labor on the Sabbath day. both
in drilling on.and the pumping of wells,
the hauling of material, and other kinds
of labor on that day, and whereas
We ueem it our duty as citizens and
church members to protest against any
unnecessary violations of the Sunday
' laws, therefore
i Resolved, That we respectfully ask
j the oil operators, contractors and labor
; ersnot to work on or reqnire others to
I work on the Sabbath day, except where
! it is necessary to save property from de
preciation or loss
Resolved, That we request that a copy
of these resolutions be published in the
county papers.
