A few days ago, an old soldier, then
in onr office said that be intended not
ing for Greer because.he (Greer) was an
old soldier, that "that they were trying
to pnsh the old soldier aside," etc.; bnt
we reminded this old soldier that Greer
had been well repaid for all he had
ever done by being kept in office for
twenty-seven years.
On the other hand Greer has nhown
but little regard fot bis former com
rades. There are several old soldiers in
this town and county to whom the
Court Crier-ship at $3.00 a day would
have been a godsend, but Greer has
preferred keeping Bert,- Hockenberry, a
young and comparatively wealthy man,
in the place for now nearly ten years—
perhaps because Bert ' 'carries the vote
of Cherry twp. in h's vwrt pocket "
Then again Greer lately tnrned down
James A McMarlin. a needy old soldier
for County Detective, after McMarlin
had been recommended for the place by
the District Attorney
And then again, it is but a few years
since an old soldier carted Greer all the
way from Butler to California, alleging
that he (Greer) had ruined his home.
Greer seerna to love the old soldier as
he loves everybody else, for his vote
alone and if the old soldiers of this
county will compare notes we think
they will corae to the conclusion that it
is not to their best interest nor the best
interests of this community that the
trust now in the hands of J. M. Greer
be allowed to remain there.
WHKV the strongest snpporter of
Charles the First heard that his King
bad signed his death warrant he quoted
the Hue "Put not your trust in Princes"
—and now Quay's followers are learn
ing to say "'P.it not your trust in
Quay-"
Quay'K Ingratitude.
"It seems almost incredible that Sen
ator Quay, whose strongest claim upon
the affection* of the people is bis well
known loyalty to bis friends, could be
wheedled, badgered or bamboozeled Into
a declaration against Elkiu. No doubt
he is sincere in bis belief that it is best
for the party, and that the decision was
not reached without agony of spirit.
But that is not the thing The illustra
tion and vindication of the manly
virtues of gratitude, friendship and fair
play, are of more importance to human
ity than the election of a Republican
Governor. Attorney-General Elkin led
the battle for Quay's re-election. In the
darkest hour, when defeat seemed al
most inevitable, he stood by his side
like a Knight-errant of old, cheering
him with words of confidence and hope,
inspiring his friends to greater exer
tions and bidding defiance to his ene
mies. He took up the cause of the stal
wart element in Pittsburg, and against
his better judgment, an<J at the risk of
sinking his own political craft, struck
out boldly, amid the furious wave* of
faction and the thunder and lightning
of anathema, and sought to rescue them
fr.<m political helplessness. That these
should desert him now,upon such flimsy
pretexts, is almost beyond belief.
John P. Elkin will not withdraw. He
will be nominated by the overwhelming
force of public sentiment on the 11th of
June, and he will be elected by a ma
jority that will completely vindicate the
wisdom of permitting the people to
choose their own candidates."—Panx'y

The Cuban reciprocity bill passed the
Honse, Friday, by the decisive vote of
947 to <53. But one amendment was
made to the mean tin* as rejiorted by the
Ways and Mean* committee, and that
was the one offered by Mr Morris. Re
publican, of Minnesota, removing the
differential from refined sugar. The
passage of this amendment was aecnr
red by the Democats voting solidly with
37 beet sugar Republicans to overrule
the decision of the chair that it waa out
of order. The vote upon this question
was 171 to 13<». the latter all being cast
by Repnblicata The amendment was
finally incorporated in tbebilN>y a vote
of 190 to 105.
THE LAW AND THE FACTS.
In 1873 the people of this state voted
themselves what was then* called the
New Constitution, and in it the status
of the Judiciary of the atate is clearly
and fully define*!. ,
At the following session of the Legis
lature a Judicial Apportionment bill
was passed and signed by the Governor
(April 8, 1874) making Bntler and Law
rence counties the 17th Judicial District
of the state; and that Fall, after a hot
contest E. McJunkin, (Rep ) and James
Bredin. (Dem.) were elected Judges of
the district. They drew lots as provid
ed by the Constitution, and McJunkin
became President Judge of the district
and Bredin Additional Law Judge. W<s
can recall nothing more that would be
of interest now, excepting the attempt
to legislate Judge McJunkin out of the
the county—Greer at that time being a
member of the State Senate.
In 1884 Lawrence county turned the
tables on nsby electing both their men—
Hazen (Rep.) and McMiehael (Dem.)
They drew lota and the President Judg
ship fell to Hazen, and he elected to
move to Butler—the law passed at the
special session of !883, requiring the ad
ditional Law Judge of rtiedistrict to re
side in Lawrence county. Greer and
Bredin, two of the defeated candidates
at that time, made an unsuccessful ef
fort to disfranchise Lawrence coantv —
a fact that some of the Republicans of
that county remembered in 18&2.
Judge McMiehael died after serving
about seven years of his term, and the
Governor appointed Norman Martin of
New Castle to serve until his eucceesor
could be elected, as the law required,
for a term of ten years.
In the Spring of 1892 Messrs Bowser,
Galbreath and Goncher were candidates
for the Republican nomination for
Judge, bat they all withdrew on the
strength of promises and pledges made
by Greer and hii> close personal friends
—just as we stated in our article enti
tled "Some Political History." published
March 20th, last.
Mr. Bowser has told a number of
men as to Greer's pledges to him; and
since Greer became a candidate for re
election has said: "I was taken over to
Charley McCandless' office and the
whole matter was talked over, and
agreed upon, and all but put in writ
ing."
To Mr. Goucher, Greer made a plea
of financial distress, and ssid that one
term would relieve him, and that he
would be satisfied with that.
To Mr. Galbreath Greer pledged him
self not to be a candidate again whether
successful or defeated.
All the promises and pledges made at
that time were in regard to a term of
ten years, and in view of these facts the
following letter by Greer is of interest
as (bowing the character of the man :
BUTLER, PA., April 11th, 1902.
Mr. J OB. C. HEPLEH,
Ekastown. Pa
Mtr DEAR SIR The Butler CIT
IZEN in a late issue published an editor
ial in which it alleges that when I was
a candidate for Judge ten years ago I
promised Mr. Galbreath and other can
didates that I would not Vie in the field
at the expiration of my term, if elected
This statement is incorrect. I made no ]
such promises.
Mr. Galbreath came to me on the
street one dav and said that he would
a candidate, that he would let
me have a clear field. I thanked him
for it, and he turned to go away but
turned and came back and said: "But
how will it be should yon fail to get the"
nomination in Lawrence county, or
should not be elected this fall? Will
you be a candidate in two years from
now when JudgeHazen's term expires?"
I promptly answered, "No, if I am not
elected this time I will never be in the
field again." Not one word was Maid
about my being a candidate at the ex
piration of my term, if elected, and no
Gromises were made more favorable to
Ir. Galbreath than to any other candl
date
We had two counties in >the district,
Butler and Lawrence. Judge Hazen
was President Jndge and the law com
pelled him to reside in Butler Jndge
McMichael had been the Assistant Law
Judge and tbe law compelled the Assis
tant Law Judge to reside in New Cas
tie; therefore as I was taking the place
of judge McMichael as the Assistant
Law Judge, it became and was my duty
to take up my residence in New Castle,
Lawrence county. I could not have re
mained in Butler county. Had there
been no change of the law I would have
been living In Lawrence county now,
and it would not seem reasonable thai I
would promifce not to be a candidate at
tbe end of my term when I wonld be
living in Lawrence county and Mr. Gal
breath In Butler county. This itself
contradicts any such allegation
Moreover Mr. Galbreath has talked to
me about our candidacy perhaps a doz
en times and he never once said that I
had made such a promise. Had such a
promise been made by ine it would
seem natural that Mr. Galbreath would
have made some mention of it in these
different conversations. Had 1 fail»d
to be elected In 18W2 I certainly wonld
not have been a candidate in two yearn
thereafter or at any other time
1 write this to coreect the mis state
ment published in the CITIZEN. It is
not a good thing for a party or candi
dates to have nowspajjer contests pre
ceding nominations It weakens the
ticket and injures the candi
date nominated. This ought, not to la
and therefore I take this way of reply
ing and making a personal contradic
tion of the statements published in the
newspapers.
Respectfully yours,
JOHN M. GKKER.
Greer took his seat on the firat Mon
day of January, 1 HOIi, and for a few
months passed part of his time in New
Castle, and then as "Little Lawrence"
had acquired a population of 40,000,
and was entitled, under the Conatitu
tion, to be made a separate district the
Legislature passed an aK to that effect,
assigning Greer to Butler county and
flszen to Lawrence county (act of April
2ft, 1803) -all of which had been taken
into consideration previous to the elec
tion— and even if the law had not been
changed Greer would have become
President Judge by virtue of priority of
commission when Judge Hazen'a term
expired in 1804.
The other point that Greer makes
that Mr, Galbrcath never mentioned
the matter is somewhat amusing. Gal
breath probably sized up his man lietter
than to take any chances of bMng told
to "shiriter for himself," and besides
that it is rather impolitic for a lawyer
to remind the Judge t.hat he is practic
ing under that he (thu Judge) is acting
dishonorably.
As to "newspaper contents preceding
nominations," that Is tbe proper time
for them, no true party man will wnit
until after an unfit man has iwen foist
ed upon his party as its 'nominee to tell
the trnth alsjnt him. That should be
done in time to prevent a nomination
that will weaken the whole ticket.
Thin two-year, Lawrence county,
bngal>oo of (Jreer * in, we believe, an
after thought, a mibterfuge, a lately
concaUed idea, a fiction of hi* imagina
tiou -to which a hartther term IH tiHiial
ly applied
JOHN EL»KJN received a tremendonx
ovaiion from bin neiKhbom when he ar
rived at hid hotne town of Indiana, hint
week; and he and hi* friend* ow the
Htate are making ready to raise the
"fiery cro*ne«" and don the "bloody

vice for many a year.
POLITICAL.
• You can quote me as saying that
Mr. Elkin will not be nominated for
governor.'
This was Senator s emphatic
statement at Washington, Monday
: night, in answer to an inquiry as lo
whether the declaration of various state
officials that they would "sink or swim
with the attorney general improved
Elkin's chances for the nomination.
At the district convention in Luzerne
Co . Monday. Elkin"s friends had every
thing their own way and secured several
delegates for their favorite for Gover
nor. At the Wilkes Barre convention,
when the ballot was counted it was
: found that the Elkin candidates had 26
votes to their opponents' 24 The result
was received with the greatest enthusi
-1 asm by the Elkin forces, who threw
J their hats in the air and cheered until
they were hoarse.
| Where is Quay now':" yelled many
jin the hall. The local supporters of
j Elkin sent him many congratulatory
I telegrams
j On Tuesday, Durham, the Philadel
' phia boss wired from Hot Springs. Va.
J ' Every man in the Philadelphia delega-
I tion will be against Elkin."
j ' But the most serious feature of the
| situation now is the strong disposition
i by the Elkin men to open fire on Sena
j tor Penrose and to take the ground that
j if Elkin is to sink instead of swimming,
j Penrose shall sink with him. In view
of the reason given out that Elkin had
I to be sacrificed in order to "save" Pen
rose. the present turn in affairs has
made a break in the stalwart lines much
more ngly than Quay himself seems to
-have calculated on as a consequence bf
the threat "throw down."—Philadelphia
Bulletin.
"Sibley,the Spectacular" was reported
yesterday, to be Quay's favorite for
Governor.
A FEW weeks ago we published a plain
statement of the circumstances leading
up to Greer's nomination and election
ten years ago; naming the men from
whom we received our information
which, of itself, challenged public deni
•
„ The ex-Prohibition organ of the boun
ty in its issue of the following week de
scribed this article as "an editorial ti
rade of personal abuse." and last week
the funny fellow who publishes the Free
port Jonrnal called it a "column of
slimy Billingsgate.''
Such language as thiH towards a plain
strteinent of facts, void of all personal
abuse, makes us wonder where Greer
and his friends will go to for adjectives
and strong language provided some
facts about him which the public should
know, are published.

MACARONI WHEATS.
Principal Varieties and Rtxlou t*
Wl)leh Tliey Are Adapted.
All macaroni wheats are extremely
sensitive to changes of soli and cli
mate. This will fccount for certain
p .;uliaritk<« in the quality of the grain
thut have already been noilce<l by
grower* occasionally In this country.
Grains partially soft and white are
frooi crops grown either under damp
»r, cooler conditions or in places where
tl.i;- Is comparatively little nitrogen
In the soil. The re<fuisite condition# for
a perfect grain are a black prairie soli
and short, hot. dry summers. On the
whole changes of climate appear to
have a greater effect lhan changes of
to.l, out if Uia HV UCMM ■ U*-
reft of humni tfce grain Slorwt tkn at
feet plainly by becoming more opaque
and white because of the preponder
ance of starch. If In this ca»e the cli
mate !s at the same time arid, the
grain remain a iryher hard, but simply
been use of its ifrytiess. I f the soli Is
black and rich and the climate too
moist, there Is considerable dUeoloru-
Hon, and black ends may show them
selves. Two or three good rains are
sufficient to mature a crop. Otherwise
the drier and hotter ftie better, while a
humid atmosphere can not be tolerated.
From fifit.v to seveaty-tlve ao called
varieties of durum or macaroni wheats
have been described by different writ
ers. There are prulbably a hundred or
more varieties nlr«idy known to be In
under distinct numes. Though thu
Lerger number of varieties are 4n prac
tical use of minor Importance, theru
arc a few having well marked charac
teristics and which have attained a
high reputation.
'l®»e variety whlcii la the basla of a
"t»ry large part of the macaroni wheat
export from the Azev sea region Is the
Oharnovka. The wheat Itself has 11
medium Ion*;. square, dense, yellowish
white head, While the beurds are dark
and very long. The grain Is quite large,
light yellow fn color and rather trans
lucent and vttre«.*us. There are several
different strains even of the
kn recognized In the Don territory.
Probably the T»est of these la the YoJ
low Ohnrnoviia, which has a grain of a
deeper yellow than the others. Moth
the Glmmovka and Yellow Oharnovka
have recently b'*-n obtained and distrib
uted by the department of agriculture,
according to Ort-ealist M. A. Carleton,
from whose report on macaroni wheats
these facts are learned. This wheat is
admirably (adapted to such districts as
Kansas. N< laraska, Oklahoma and enst
ern <"olorn<*o. It will probably prove to
be one of the best durum whuuts for
the'middle nnd southern great plains

as well as for New Mexico rind Arlzo
ua ' 1 iutriMjrka la being grown Ikla
\,y the New Mexico agricultural
experiment station and so far gives
promise of excellent results.
Arnoutka wheat Is apparently not
grown to so great an extent as OUnr
no'. ka. but It. Is nevertheless one of the
best varieties of south Russia. Ho far
us the writer mentioned can determine
what Is properly called Arnautka Is a
win at having heads of a light red col
or. with a bluish blooia und very long
reddish beards. The grains are very
large nnd long and when grown under
favorable conditions are a clear yellow,
extremely hard and vltreons. This and
Oharnovka nrc the two varieties which
have given Russia Its reputation for
macaroni wheats, although one or two
Russian sorts are probably even better
than these for marketing that product.
Mr. Cnrlefon hns so fur seen nothing
but the grain of the varl<*ty now grown
considerably by the farmers of North
and J'-jtitli Dakota under the name Ar
nautka and cannot say whether It Is
the s.-itne as that described above or
not This variety Is well adapted for
cOitlvutlon In Kansas, Colorado, Okla
homa and Texas.
