W ASHINGTON* NOTKS.
In Washington. Thursday, it was
thought that the Isthmian treaty wonld
be ratified, and the canal dng.
The sentiment of Senators and Repre
sentatives seemed strongly against any
further action in the"Schley case. They
are so disgusted with the whole matter
that they will not touch the subject nn
less they are compelled to do so. They
want to forget it
On Monday the Senate confirmed the
nomination of P. C. Knox as Attorney
General, by a vote of 49 to 7; and also
ratified the Hay-Paunceforte treaty,
which clears the way for legislation re
garding the canal across the isthmus.
Admiral Schley asked Secretary Long
to withhold fiction on the report of the
findings and the opinion of the court
mllTrSe filed a statement of objections
to them.
The Secretary immediately acceded
to the request. He was glad to do so,
because he is in a quandary. He does
not know what to do with the two re
ports. He cannot approve both, and if
he approves the majority, which rep
resents the vie tvs he holds, he will be
in an uncomfortable position. Besides,
he is not prepared to criticise Schley
as savagely as Benham and Ramsey.
The retrograde turn is the only thing
which he personally has much feeling
abont.
On Monday P M. General Smith of
Pennsylvania resigned, and Henry A
Payne of Wisconsin was named to suc
ceed him.
Rep. Showalter introduced bills to
provide increase of pensions as follows:
Henry Forcht of Butler, SSO; Elias C.
Wheeler of Zelienople, £SO; Joseph E.
McCabe of Beaver, £SO.
Henry C Payne of Wisconsin, who
succeeds Mr. Smith is a figure of
national importance in the party. He
is a Republican of the staunchest type,a
man of affairs, interested in great in
dustrial and commercial enterprises,
and will bring to the department keen
business acumen and capacity. He was
for over eight years postmaster of Mil
waukee, which city he was largely in
strumental in converting from a Demo
cratic to a Republican stronghold, and
his experience has given him a wide in
sight into governmental methods.
POLITICAL.
In Pittsburg, last week, Fulton was
threatening to sue Flinn for the "pro
tected vice" episode; a Philadelphia pol
itician in Pittsburg, Thursday, stated
that Don Cameron would be a candi
date for Governor.
Over fifty candidates have already
announced themselves in Mercer coun
ty—those for Congess and Assembly be
ing, for Congress, Dr. J. C. Weidman;
Assembly, Hon. H. K. Daugherty and
James C. Gibson, the present members,
J. B. Morrow, the present Prothonota
ry, W. W. Johnston of West Middlesex,
Wm, Simons of Clarks Mills, Col. Silas
Hunter of Green and A. McElrath of
Mercer.
Republicans in every precinct of But
ler connty should confer and consult to
gether during the next few weeks in or
der to secure the very best men possible
as candidates at the February election
for local officers.
Attorney General El kin telegraphed
a personal friend in Pittsburg, last
Thursday, from Florida that he would
be a candidate for Governor next year
and that he would be in the fight to the
end. The news was generally regarded
in Pittsburg as an evidence that the
fight for the Governorship is now
squarely on and that all the power and
influence of the State organization and
of Senator Quay and his friends will be
exerted in Mr. Elkin's behalf.
The chief topic of political discussion
in Bellefonte, last week was the plausi
bility of Governor Stone accepting
Superior Conrt Judge John I. Mitch
ell's resignation and the appointment of
Judge John G. Love of that place to the
vacancy.
W. E. Gray, a cousin of Judge Love,
has generally been regarded as the man
sure of the appointment, but of late it is
rumored that E. R. Chambers, the lead
ing Quay man in the county, is also
among the possibilities.
Nicaragua.
The proposed bnilding of the Nicara
gua canal makes the state and lake of
that name interesting topics of conver
sation among most Americans. With
but one exception, Nicaragua is most
southern of the Central American re
publics. Coata Rica lies between it and
Columbia, the South American republic
of which the Panama Isthmus i 3 a part.
With its sister republics Nicaragua
battled successfully for independence
from Spain in 1821. From then until
1839 the Central American states form
ed one republic but since then they have
been separate and each has a president
and congress. Nicaragua is about as
large as Pennsylvania and New Jersey
aud has about 400,000 inhabitants.
The lake is in the western part of the
country, is 110 miles long, froin 30 to 50
wide and from 25 to 50 miles
from the Pacific ocean, and only
100 feet above the sea level. A range
of hills, at one part only 48 feet higher
than the lake, separates it from the
Pacific. There are numerous islands
and the scenery is described as surpass
ingly beautiful and even grand. The
Sau Jnan, a river 75 mile 3 long, con
n sets the lake and Carribean sea. Tho
lake is half the size of Lako Erie.
Nicaragua is rich in gold, silver, cop
per, lead and iron which were carefully
, mined by the Spaniards but have been
neglected because of political turmoils.
The country is extremely rich in tropi
cal vegetation of every sort.
THE Schley Conrt of Inquiry makes a
very pertinent recommendation, and
that is that the matter be dropped.
There never has lieen a case in Ameri
can history so misunderstood and com
pletely mis-judged by the Nation.

ttuLi and Argentine have referred
th«u' boußdry lice dispute to Great
Britain for arbitration, and both at the
saiT^time, are making active prepara

horses and military equipment and can
raise an army of 200,000 men, and both

The Schley Verdict.
The report of the Schley Conrt of
Inquiry was promulgated by Secretary
Long last Friday. There are two re
ports. Admirals Benham and Ramsey
concur in the first, which is signed by
Dewey also as a matter of form.
Admiral Dewey makes a separate re
port, although he agrees with the find
ings of facts subscribed to by the others
The majority report condemns Admiral
Schley on eleven points, while Admiral
Dewey sustains him in most particu
lars. The majority opinion finds in
brief that Admiral Schley should haye
proceeded with the utmost dispatch to
Cienfuegos and maintained a close
blockade: that he should have endeavor
ed to obtain information of the Spanish
squadron there: that he should have
obeyed the department's orders; that he
should have endeavored to capture the
Spanish vessels in Santiago; that he did
not do his utmost to destroy the Colon:
that he caused the squadron to lose
distancs in the loop of the Brooklyn;
that he therebv caused the Texas to
back: that he did injustice to Hobson;
that his conduct in the campaign was
characterized by vacillation, dilaton
ness, lack of enterprise; that his official
reports on the coal supply were mis
leading and inaccurate; that he should
not have made the retrograde move
ment; that his conduct during the
battle was self-possessed, and that lie
encouraged in his own person his sun
ordinate officers and men.
Admiral Dewey in his report says
that the passage to Cienfuegos was
made with all dispatch - that in view of
his coal supply the blockade of Cien
fuegos was effective; that he allowed
the Adnla to enter Cienfugos to get in
formation; that his passage to Santiago
was with as much dispatch as possible,
keeping the squadron together: that the
blockade of Santiago was effective, and,
finally, that he was the senior officer off
Santiago, in absolute command, and en
titled to the credit due for the glorious
victory which resulted in the total de
struction of the Spanish ships.
The Conrt. also, recommends that, in
view of the length of time which has
elapsed since the occurrence of the events
of the Santiago campaign, the court re
commends no further proceedings he
had in the premises.
THE most wonderful engineering oper
ation now going on in the world is the
building of the tunnels under New
York City, for a system of underground
street railways; but the Penn'a R. R.
Co. proposes to excel this by building a
tunnel under the Hudson river, N. Y.
city and the East river, (with a great
underground station in New York) and
running through trains from the west
to the eastern end of Long Island, from
which their line of steamers wonld run
to Europe. The tunnel, or rather sys
tem of tunnels, will be great steel tubes
several miles long, running from a
point in New Jersey to a point on Long
Island, and where they cross under the
Hudson, or North, river, where the
mud is 100 feet deep, will have to be
supported by stone pillars,running down
to the rock.
Tlie State Grange.
The Pennsylvania State Grange closed
its sessions at Johnstown, hist Friday,
after m aking the most radical depart
ures in the history of the order.
Perhaps the most striking and import
ant was the presentment made by
Grange No. 216. In this statement
Grange No. 216 "Regrets the centraliza
tion of government that has already
gone very far, with a tendency to drift
farther."
The resolution also "views with
alarm" the recommendation of the
President for another department of the
Government to be known as the Depart
ment of Commerce and Industry. It
deprecates the increase of I ederal of
fices. It objects to the policy of remov
ing the people's business from their Ovvn
immediate control.
It particularly opposes a proposition
which might properly appear in a social
istic program me, and it resents the erec
tion of a department of Government un
der which the people of the State would
lose control of the corporations of their
own creation. The resolutions were
adopted The following resolution was
offered by the legislative committee:
"While we are in favor of better
roads, we demand, first that a system of
revenue be provided creating a special
road fund by taxing personal and cor
porate property at the same rates that
other real estate is taxed, for road pur
poses."

tion of Christ's Sermon on the Mount as
found in St. Matthew, following the
scripture with prayer. m ,
Instead of an ' 'Address of W elcorue
this year, the teachers were forced to
listen to a lengthv and childish descrip
tion of the battle"of Waterloo, followed
by a great mass of statistics regarding
Russia, which, no doabt, are a very ap
propriate part of the book froui which
thev were taken.
This affliction was responded to by
W. G. Heckathorne of Jacksville.who
is teaching in the Jefferson township
schools. After sin jing under direction

hopes that the Franklin directors will
rectify the mistake by making it $35.
Many teachers .complain of the lo;v

that as the State Legislature regnl.it. s
and establishes the wages of almost
every other public office, that a law
might be passed fixing a minimum
monthly rate for school teachers.
Teaching is an occupation which re
