To the Republican Voters of
Butler County.
In response to numerous letters of in
quiry from political and personal friends
tnroughont the county, I deem it neces
sary to announce through your columns
that I have decided not to submit my
name as a candidate for Register an d
Recorder at the coming primaries i n
June, but to withhold the same nnti 1
the primaries in the spring of 1905.
I wish to express my gratitude to my
many frienda in this be half and hope to
be able to have a personal interview
with them before that time.

POLITICAL.
At the meeting of the Republican
County Committee, Tuesday afternoon,
in Armory Hall. 28 members were pres
ent and the following resolution was
adopted:
"Whereas, at the meeting of the
County Committee held on June 1, 1901,
a Committee of three consisting of P.
W. Lowrjr, N. B Duncan and Ira Mc-
Junkin was elected for the purpose of
meeting a Committee of three from
Westmoreland county, to adopt rules
to govern the nomination of Congres
sional candidates in the district com
posed of the countios of Butler and
Westmoreland, with instructions to re
port their action to the County Com
mittee for approval or disapproval. And
the said Committees having failed to
agree on rules thus far. it is herebv
Resolved, that the powers or the
Committee from this county be extend
ed that they shall have full power to
unanimously agree upon such rules as
in their judgment are proper without
referring their action to the County
Committee for their approval.
And it is further resolved. That it is
the judgment of this County Committee
representing the Republicans of Butler
county, that in any conferences or con
vention. called for the purpose of mak
ing a district nomination, equal repre
sentation with Westmoreland coun
ty is doe to Butler county as a matter
of right and justice.
This is all that was done and the
Committee adjourned.
Reference to a CITIZEN published in
1884 discloses the fact tbat the number
of candidates is comparatively small.
Then there were 2 candidates forjudge,
2 for Congress, 1 for State Senate, 8 for
Assembly, 7 for Sheriff, 8 for Prothono
tarr, 9 for Register and Recorder, 18
for County Treasurer, 6 for Clerk of
Courts, 13 for County Commissioner,
12 for County Auditor and two for
Coroner. A total of 83 aa against 38
now. The total vote polled was 5862
then and there are probably 1(M0 more
Republicans in the county now.
Blair comity, of which Altoona is the
chief town and Holidaysburg is the
county seat, was the scene of an inter
esting political contest last week on ac
count of the Republican party rules re
quiring candidates for Governor to be
voted for at the same time the dele
gates are elected, the popular v#te to
decide the matter.
The county is near Elkin's home
county, Indiana, and he canvassed it
while Watres came down from Lacka
wanna, put in an appearance and made
an address at Altoona. on Friday, the
day before the primary.
The primary was held Saturday and
Elkin won by a 3 to 1 vote, and thus se
cured 5 delegates to the State Conven
tion.
Tbe County Committee of Lebanon
Co. indorsed Elkin tbe same day and
*the primaries of Clearfield, Franklin,
Lancaster and Cumberland counties
went in his favor; while Watres had no
opposition in Wayne Co
Elkin's friends now claim 58 county
delegates and say they will get 80 more
in Philadelphia and expect the entire
vote of Allegheny Co.
Tbe new twenty-eighth Congressional
district is composed of the connties of
Elk, Forest, Mercer, Venango and
Warren. The boundary of the district
extends from Cameron county line on
the east to the Ohio State line on the
west, a distance of 150 miles. It has a
natural Republican majority of from
5,000 to 8,000.
Tbe Republican Convention of Brad
ford Co. of which Tonawanda ia tbe
county seat instructed the delegates to
vote for Elkin for Governor.

SOME POLITICAL HISTORY.
Ten year* ago Butler and Lawrence
counties formed the 17th Judicial Dis
trict of the state, and Norman Martin
and Aaron L. Hazen were our Judges-
Martin having been appointed by Gov.
Pattieon to act in place of John Mc-
Michael. deceased, until the place could
be filled by election.
In the early Spring of 1892 four mem
bers of the Butler Bar—S. F. Bowser,
James M. Galbreatb, H. H. Goucher
and John M. Greer—aspired for the Re
publican nomination for Judge.
Messrs Bowser, Goucher and Gal
breath were then and are now lawyers
in good practice, and were considered
fit persons in every respect for the office,
while aa Greer had been in office and
in politics all his life his qualifications
were doubted, and one of his friends ar
gued for him that it was "the dnty of
Bar to instruct the Bench" as to the
law.
But Greer was the politician of the
crowd and he induced the others to
stand aside for him by promising to never
be in their way again—his argument
at that time was something like this —
Now yon fellows stand aside for me this
time and I'll never be in your way
again, and I'll get the district nomina
tion, and be elected; and not only that
but I stand in with Quay and the State
Committee, and I'll get on the State
ticket, and on the Supreme Bench; and
the county is getting so big that we'll
soon need two Judges, and well all be
Judges.''
And one after another they all did
give way to him. which gave him the
county without opposition; and Wal
lace of New Castle gave up after quite
a contest, and Greer had the district
nomination.
The summer passed, and with the
Fall came word from Lawrence county
that that county was going strongly for
Martin, the Democratic nominee (just
as it had for Hazen and McMichael >,
which meant Martin's election. Then
Greer and his friends (the chief of
wbom at that time was W H. H
Riddle) plead with everybody for help,
and men here who owed him nothing
personally or politically turned in and
helped him.
One of the men who had. stood aside
for him helped us to edit the paper, and
we said everything we could think of in
his favor, and mailed a thousand copies
a week for several weeks to addresses,
furnished by Greer, in Lawrence coun
ty—and all that tbat cost Greer was
the actual cost of the paper, printing
and postage—he had our time and space
for nothing.
The election came off and Greer had
the usual Republican majority of this
county at tbat time, while Lawrence
county was very near a "stand-off " He
took his seat, and since then has been
an applicant for nearly every vacancy
that has occurred on the Supreme and
Superior benches, and failing there has
for the past few years been electioneer
ing for a second term on the Bench
here, thereby violating the pledges that
secured him both his nomination and
election.
One of the men who stood aside for
him took him to task for this some
months ago, and Greer's answer was
"that no young man could afford to take
this office for but one term"—which
coming from a man of about sixty, and
who probably never made a thousand
dollars in any one year practicing law
was about as ridiculous as saying that
he did not want the office for himself,
but for the sake of his sons.
* * #
Ten years at $4,000 a year means S4O,
000; tbe law allows extras to the extent
of SSOO a year, also milage, which is
clear gain to men with passes in their
pockets; and Greer shonld end his term
with at least $20,000 in bis pocket, and
live un to tbe pledges that securred it
for bim. And besides this he bad been
in office for about seventeen years pre
vious, or about twenty-seven years in
all, and the total amount he has drawn
from the county and state treasuries
will aggregate the best part of a hun
dred thousand dollars.
All his life he has been at tbe "public
tit"—votes and dollars have always
meant the same thing for him—and it is
no wonder that be is now begging men
that he tried to ruin to vote lor him and
that h6 is considered tbe best hand in
the county at "slobbering over people".
There are other and much graver ol>-
jections to retaining this man in this
this office than his double dealing with
his brother attorneys, (though this is an
index to all) but our only purpose at
present is to call attention to this one
point, and ask tbe question, "Do you
want a.dishonorable man to administer
the laws of the Commonwealth for
you T"
WASHINGTON NOTES.
The old adage about a "man convinc
ed against his will" was exhibited in re
verse action in Congress last Friday,
when Mr. Dalzell was convinced in ac
cordance with his will and acknowledg
ed his conyiction with the most gratify
ing promptitude. Appropriations for
marine hospitals at Buffalo. Sayannah
and Pittsburg, $125,000 for each of the
first two and SIOO,OOO for Pittsburg,
were presented, and several congress
men could not see why Pittsburg could
get along with less than the
others. It took very little discussion of
that sort to bring Mr. Dalzell to a frank
and manly confession that he had been
mistaken in supposing that Pittsburg
needed but the round hundred thousand.
He was the most promptly converted
man on record to the yiew that $115,000
was the proper sum. That change was
made, and I'lttsburg has no complaint
to make of Mr. Dalzell's sudden enlight
enment. —Dispatch.
Tbe House, last week, spent consider
able time on the P. O. appropriation
bill and the maximum salary was fixed
at SOOO for Rural Route Mail carriers.
The Senate Canal Committee by a
vote of 7 to 4, reported in favor of the
Nicaragua route and the Senate listen
ed to a lot of speech** against the Ship
Subsidy bill.
In tbe Republican conference of
Tuesday night, the fifth in the series on
tbe question of reciprocity with Cuba
tbe beet sugar men went to the wail,
4nd Sibley's compromise prevailed By a
vote of 57 ayes to 79 noes, Col Dick's pro
position to relieve Cuba by means of u
rebate to be paid out of the United
States tn-asury to the Cuban govern
ment, was rejected. This was the last
stand of th* sugar beet phalanx. 1111-
mediatly thereafter a vote was taken
on the Sibley proposition, providing for
u 20 per cent reduction to last until L)<-
cember 1, 1908. This was adopted by a
vote of 85 to 31, a majority of 54.
On Monday the Senate passed the
Ship Subsidy or Ocean Service bill,
which Involves a yearly expenditure of
eight million dollars, bv a vote of 42 to
81.
St. Patrick.
St Patrick was the Apostle of Ireland.
He died March 17, 465, ever since re
vered by the Irish as St. Patrick s day.
Three countries, Scotland. Wales and
Frsnce claim to be his birth place, bet
it is fairly certain that France is the
right one. The year of his birth was
either 377 or 3*7 When sixteen years
old he was kidnapped by pirates, taken
to Ireland and sold as a slave to a chief
After six years captivity, he escaped
back to France, became a monk, visited
Rome and was sent by Pope Celestine
as a special miasionary to Ireland.where
he worked with wonderfnl power. He
is said to hare baptized with his own
hands 12000 converts and established
36.-) churches. His only writings cer
tainly remaining are his "Confession
and a letter to a Welsh chief named
Caradoc. He died near Downpatrick,
Ireland. Driving out the snakes is
merely an "adornment" to bis memory.
The Bidille Reward.
At the meeting of the County Com
missioners of Allegheny county last Fri
day the Biddle reward money was divid
ed as follows:
"Detectives Charles C. McGovern,
John Roach and Albert E Swinehart
will each receive $930 of the $-5,000 re
ward offered by the County Commis
sioners for the capture of the Biddies,
according to the decision reached by
County Commissioners Mercer, Murray
and Clark.
All claimants must, however, sign an
agreement to accept the awards made
by the commissioners as payment in full
before any of it will be pwid. Under
the award Councilman J. G. Splane.who
carried the first information to the
Pittebnrg police, is to get $300; J. G.
Snyder, who discovered the Biddies and
furnished and drove the sleiiih occupied
by the detectives, is to get $450; Frank
i Holidav. who gave the alarm, gets $650;
Rainey Hoon, deputy sheriff of Butler
county, and Robert Ray. chief of police
of Butler, each get $275, and Aaron
Thompson who drove the Butler parlv,
is to get S2OO.
By this award the Allegheny county
claimants, with their driver, «et $3.<500
and the Butler claimants get $1,400
That is an unjust divisionof the mon
ey, which should be divided equally
among the eight men who were at the
scene and took part in the shooting arid
capture of the Biddies. The Butler men
should contest the award.
W. Z Murrin and A. M. Christley,
attorneys for the Butler claimants of
the Biddle reward, were in Pittsburg
Tutsday and notified the Allegheny
County Solicitor that their clients
would not accept the division made by
the Allegheny County Commissioners
The Butler claimants have determin
ed now to ask for the entire $5,000. on
the ground that the Pittsburg defect
ives were salaried officers detailed <>n
the case and, therefore, have n'> lepal
right to participate in the reward It
is likely that a stated case will be made
of it.or else the Allegheny County
Commissioners will pay the money into
court and permit the claimants to tight
it out.

The Oaf's Answer
Since Rudyaril Kipling published
"The Islanders" there have been inauy
parodies, but no metrical answers
worthy of name until the following ap
peared in the London Star:
Fenced by our patient fathers, ringed
by our peaceful seas,
Long did we wake in quiet, and long lie
down at ease,
Till you said of Strife: "Where is itV"
oftheSword: "Let it flash again!"
Till you made a god of wanton war aud
an idol of armed men.
We stopped our ears to the warning
we wonld neither look nor heed
We set our hate above our laws, an i
our Inst above our need
Because of our witless rancor, and our
pitiless pride of race.
We grudged our brothers freedom, and
our friends a resting-place.
You blustered and bragged and bellow
ed, and we paid when you bade us
"pay,"
But where are tha fifty thousand men
that you twanged to Table B iy'/
For soon were the Judgments loasened
soon wa-i our shame revealed.
At the hands of a little people, few but
apt in the field.
Though now they are only a remnant
(and Milner has started his "Star")
You ask for more of our millions and
more of our flesh for war.
Sons you wonld tear from their mothers.
lads from their lasses sweet.
And brush them under the wheels of
war like the dust and dirt of tbe
street
And what did >ou look they should
compass? Glory that fades like a
breath.
Glory to Gold in the highest at the price
of a brother's death'!
So! And we asked: ' is it glory to hol
low the veldt with graves,
And to build.it gilded empire on the
backs of beaten slaves?"
But you said: "TIII war is over;" but
you said: "The end is come,'
And we swallowed the hocus of Rat
field, wc -wallowed lie of Brum
Then wo returned to our vomit, then
we contented our souls
With the kipling fools at the pothouse.
and the rndyard oats at the polls.
Given to strong delusion, wholly be
lieving a lie,
We saw that the war was not over, and
we let the months go by,
Waiting isnme easy wonder, hoping
some saving signs.
Cheated -openly cheated for the sake
of the Sacred Mines.
Cheated —::nd sick of yonr boasting, ah,
what is your boasting worth.
When the ink you fling is a blotch of
blocxl upon the rotten Earth!
£t was not made with the mountains;
it is not or;i; with the deep,
Fools and oafs devised it. Fooh und
oafs must keep.
Fools, not men, belaud yon, o ifn, not
in til, adore,
flow should men applaud you, O
Laureate of Gore?

INDIVIDUALITY IN COWS.
Cor/* 'of Ilixli Cfcnnllty Needed—Rent
Heifer f.'silve* Should IS«* Iluiaed.
The heifer calves from the best cows
should by all moans be raised. The'
method that Is still quite largely prac
ticed in some portions of the dairy sec
tions of our state of disposing of all
the calves regardless of how good the
Individual or its parentage is in the
end a ruinous practice to the dairy in
terests. The ranges are producing beef
cattle. hor>« >. Hnd sheep, but there is no
One as yet In the business of producing
good working cows of high quality, and
the supply must be produced by the
dairymen them -elves.
Although k< od cows can be found in
all communities. they are comparative
ly scarce, and the heifer calves from
them should certainly be raised. Where
the whole milk Is disposed of and no
skluHiitik Is available this Is not so eas
ily done, but i: will pay to feed the best
calves whole milk for a few days and
then gradually substitute some other
calf foul. In this way, if a little c.:re
Is c\( rclsed, excellent dairy calves may
be rslau! on a small quantity of milk.
W. .1. Ftas t of the Illinois station
t;!vcs the above advice and summarli'.es
his o!.t < rvntlon on "Individual differen
ces in the value of dairy cows" thus:
T'.;ei are vast differences in the ct!l
clency and profit derived from individ
ual dairy cows.
One cow may produce more than
twice as much butter fat in a year as
another on exactly the same feed basis.
A good cow well cared for may pro
duce five time aa much as the average
cow in tin* Fulled States or nearly as
much as three "profitable" cows for
Illinois.
Nearly all dairymen are keeping a
portion of their herd at an actual loss.
Many keep cows that pay only half
as n11:<-!i a bushel for the grain con
mimed as othi r cows In the same herd.
Excellent eows are obtainable at a
reasonable price In nearly all sections
of the country. There Is almost no
dairying In this region, yet the cow
Hove and several others nearly as good
wire purchased In this community for
S,"O each.
Give the eows a one week test every
three mouths. In vc a profitable stand
ard, gradually rilse It each year, and
dispose of »nj row* tb»t do not come
up to this.
Breed the I est eows to a dairy sire
of excellent hi• eding and Individuality
and raise the heifer culves.
U lifii .Hnklitj*. Hotlirdi.
In making hotbeds always break the
manure up fine and tread It down well.
I#e ante to put eiioi;,;h In the center of
the beds so there will be no sagging.
Fresh manure «>f hard worked and well
fed horses free from dry Utter Is best.
An addition of leaves used for bedding
will serve to produce a more moderate
but more liihiliik heat.

NUT TREES WILL PAY.
Their Advantage* Especially FOP
Roadside Planting.
I The black walnut and the butternut
may be srown in almost any deep, rich,
moist soil. They each have quite u
wide range and thrive In almost any
jrood soil that Is not too dry. These
two well known nut trees are often
found together, but the walnut is more
common in the south and west, the but
ternut in the north and east.
The chestnut has a somewhat nar
rower range, but succeeds well on most
sandstone ridges and In soils that con
tain little or no limy. The foreign chest
nuts may be successfully grafted on
our native. The nuts are larger: but,
so far as I have tested them, they are
inferior in quallt/. It seems to me that
the common American chestnut is ad
mirably suited for roadside planting
wherever the soil is congenial.
Several species of hickory might also
be used. For ornamental purposes
there are few trees that excel the hick
ory in variety and beauty of foliage.
The mils are si- valuable, the better
varieties c mmaiiding a good price in
the market. Among the more desirable
sorts are the better vara-t'-s of the
shell or shag bui :i;:d the white heart
hickory. In f .V mc;: i:.s south
of latitude M c > the pecan can be
eas'ly frvvrv..
The hickory in it - varieties is per

be successfully cultivated wherever the
peach is grown.
Our age is too ciiiHientlj materialis

GROUND GYPSUM.
Practical Experience In I tins: It to
Atlvnntage in the Stnble.
Ground" gypsum, according to a Ca
nadian farm investigator, may un
doubtedly be used W advantage in the
stable. The nitrogenous compound In
the urine by the aid of certain tiller*
organisms, always present In the nlr,
is converted very quickly Into carbo
nate of ammonia. This is volatile and
will cscaj ■ if some suitable absorbent
or fixer is not present. Gypsum is such
a fixer, converting the carbonate into
sulphate of ammonia, which is not vol
atile.
Practical conclusions from experi
ments are (It that the proper place to
use gypsum is in the stable, where un
doubtedly the greater waste of nitro
gen, as ammonia, frequently occurs,
and (2) that when me manure heap is
kept compact and tiiolst there is not
any considerable escape of ammonia.
Fermentation Increased the availa
bility of the phosphoric acid. It is lo
be noticed that a considerable loss of
potash took place. This must be due
to a certain amount of drainage from
the m:ti;tne soaking into the board
floor. '1 li!s drainage was no doubt in
creased by the water used In keeping
the manure constantly moist. This re
sult corroborate* the conclusion that
loss of potash cannot be entirely guard
ed against without a water tight, con
crete-floor if the manure is to be kept
moist by rain or artificial means.
A Bloval>I<» Fence.
When I was a b v, my father had a
movable fence live boards high, a
panel of which is shown in the illustra
tion. says an Ohio Farmer correspond
ent. No pus-. , are needed except at the
start.
Two me:i with team can move a long
string of this fence in a very short
time.
As I rt member It, we used a six Inch
board at the In.Horn and live Inch for

the rest, but they can all be the same
width. We made panels twelve, four
teen or sixteen feet long. The panels
arc all built alike, anil the end of one
locks bit') the end of flic next. When
the panels are then straightened out,
the fence Is locked. It Is a great con
venience on any farm.
TliltiKM Tlinl Arc Told.
The blossoming of peach and plum
trees can be retarded by spraying with
whitewash.
Chair's Choice peach received high
commendation at the New York Fruit
Growers' association meeting.
Sotl culture In orchards Is all non
tciise. according to Mr. J. 11. Hale, lie
favors cultivation and cover cropa.
Professor 1,. H. Malley believes two
year trees are preferable to older ones
for setting In an orchard and cites a
case where two and six year old trees
were set In an orchard, and after a
very few years the young trees were as
large 11s the old ones.
Sow onion seed in flats In a hotbed
or In a greenhouse and transplant the
onions (0 the open ground as soon us
the latter Is In working condition.
For profitable general field culture
the sweet potato requires at least four
months of warm weather, free not only
from frost, but from cold winds and
from cool nights.
