A LAWLESS JUDGE.
Some months ago Judge Greer knock
ed a young man down upon the street?
of Butler, and kicked him after be fell.
Yesterday afternoon we had another
exhibition of his lawlessness and bru
tality. H. Q. Walker, Esq. and Steph
en Morrison, were leaning upon the
railing in front of the Donglass Book
Store, engaged in conversation. Greer
came along and stopped in front of
them, Walker, thinking he wanted to
speak to him held ont his hand and
spoke to him; Greer refused the hand
and told Walker he was a 'd liar;"
Walker replied that it was he (Greer)
who was the liar, whereupon Greer
struck him full in the face; Walker
struck back, but being a small man
compared to Greer could not do justice
to the occasion, and Greer turned and
walked away.
Tho affair created a sensation, the
street was soon crowded and the Greers
made an effort to keep it ont of the
papers.
This incident demonstrates what the
Bar of Bntler county has had to con
- tend with for ten year*, a bully in
office, and is also a faint index to the
more deadly injuries some men have
had to put np with by reason of Greer's
unbridled licentiousness.
Greer struck Walker a blow yester
day, see to it that you strike a blow for
honest manhood and the integrity of your
Court and your home by casting a vote
against him Saturday afternoon.
P. S.—"l made no such promises."—
John M. Greer.
THE term of Judge is at least twice
too long. It the man elected proves to
be either a fcol or a scamp, the Bar and
tho People have to pat up with him for
ten years, and if, in addition,bd is a pol
itician, you may have hard work get
ting rid of him.
VOTE for an honest man for Judge
P. S.—"l made no such promises."—

WASHINGTON NOTES.
Hissing in the Senate is so unusual
that when it occurred in the course of
the Philippine debate, last Saturday, it
created a sensation. Mr. Spooner of
Wisconsin was speaking and referred,
incidently, to the story that a thousand
Filipinos had been put to death by
American troops in trenches which they
were compelled to dig. Mr. Lodge of
Massachusetts said the story had been
denied by the father of tho soldier who
had started it.
Mr. Carmack of Tennessee interrupt
ed to say that no doubt the soldier
would deny the story, as all soldiers in
the Philippines had been required to
do. His remark WP.B greeted with
hisses from the galleries,the demonstra
tion of disapprobation calling ont a
sharp rapping of the gavel from the
chair.
The House, last week, passed the
Shittuc Immigration bill. This bill is
a codification of all previous bills relat
ing to the same subject, bit at the same
time there are changes. For instance,
the head tax on aliens is increased from
$1 to $ 1.50, and there is a demand that
an educational test <ball be applied. On
the theory that a man who can read
and write in his own language,can learn
to bo a respectable citizen of the United
States, the intelligent immigrant is ad
mitted. But if the new arrival is so
ignorant that ho cannot understand his
own language he will be sent back.
There is no doubt that the immigration
laws need a thorough overhauling.
On Tuesday the Senate passed the bill
providing for the civil government of
the Philippines by a vote of 4H to !10.
Three Republicans, Hoar, Mason and
Wellington, voted against it, and one
Democrat, McLaurin, of South Carolina
for it.
P. S. — 'I made no such promises."

The attempt to tamper with the Elkin
delegates from Schuylkill county to the
Republican State convention by the
alleged offer of as high as $5. 000 for a
single vote for Judue Pennypacker cre
ated great excitement there.
Westmoreland county Republicans
have a fight for County Commissioner
on hands which may break the Con
gressional harmony deal.
Messrs Reamer and Earnest, present
Commissioners, recently voted to give
the contract for the building of the new
court house to a Pittsburg contractor.
The award must be approved by the
court before it can go into effect. It is
1 now stated that the judges will asvait
the decision of the people at primary
election next Saturdav. Should the old
board be renominated the court, it is es
timated, will act accordingly.
A strange combination is this: lined
up against Messrs Reamer and Earnest
are the old-time Quay leaders, County
Controller John Brown, Judge John B
Steel, Major Edward Robbins and Jas.
S. Beacom, and his lieutenants. That
coaltition as a whole has heretofore won,
but for the past two years Brown and
Beacom have been fighting one another.
Their getting together in the fight
now is the wonder of the political ago
in that county. For the Reamer-Huff
faction, or the old insurgent crowd, led
by D. C. Ogden. is leaving no stone un
turned.
After a tremendous contest Elkin car
ried Tioga county last Saturday by a
vote of 4025 to 3691 for Pennypacker,
and securred four delegates and his
friends say the result in Tioga will con
trol the votes of the other four counties
in that Congressional district —Lycom-
ing 4; Potter 2 and Clinton 2; 12 in all.
Elkin also securred the two from Hunt
ingdon without opposition; while the
York county delegates will go un
instructed.
It is now about two years until the
meeting of the next Republican nation
al convention and already two St ates
have passed resolutions in convention
looking to the placing of Roosevelt in
the field at the head of the ticket. It
may almost be said that at present there
is no other candidate, since Mr. Hanna
has for the moment squelched any
personal ambitions he may have or his
followers have for him by indorsing
Roosevelt in terms which seem to elimi-,
nate him and anyone else in the Ohio
field. Kansas has done the same thing.
These midterm expression!) of opinion
are by no means conclusive, but they
are interesting, because so far there has
been no serious attempt on the part of
any candidate to work up sentiment. If
there be those who hunger and thirst
after the nomination they do well in
smothering their ambitions, for nothing
is more certain than an early frost for
precipitate campaigns for high honors.
The Quay slate for next Wednesday
at Harrisbnrg.is Penrose for Temporary
Chairman, Pennypacker for Governor,
and Quay for State Chairman.
Elkin headquarters have been estab
lished iu Ilarrisburg, at the Lochiel.
••Representative Jack, of Indiana,
takes a very sanguine view of tb'<
strength of Attorney General Elki*».anci
says the latter will be nominated 011 tho
1 first ballot at Harrisburg. In explain
ing his views Mr Jack says: Already
Attorney General Elkin has 105 dele
gates instructed for him and 25 sinin
structed,but pledged tohissupport. I feel
confident that he will receive at least
00, and probably more, of the delegates
yet to be chosen, which will give him
100 in all, or 10 more than is necessary
1 to nominate him. In Allegheny county

i ed to support the Attorney General.

Greer's size—mentally and morally.

End of tlie Boer War.
London burst into wild rejoicing last
Sunday evening when the signature to
the terms of peace became public. There
were rejoicings of relief, not triumph,
but soon the Mafeßing spirit, liegau to
assert itself and witbin halt nn hour
after the announcement union jacks
fluttered from street cars and house
windows and noisy gangs of young men
and women paraded the streets blowing
penny trumpets, yelling uatriotic songs
and otherwise liberating their long
pent up feelings.
The treaty of peace, or "terms of sur
render" as the English put it was sign
ed at Pretoria, Saturday by the Boer
generals, and representatives of the
English gcernment.
The terms provide for the cessation of
ail violence, surrender of all arms and
munitions of war, return of all prison
ers to their homes; use of the Dutch
language in the colonies, self-govern
ment, no prosecutions and no special
war taxes, etc.

To THE REPUBLICAN VOTERS OK
BUTLER COCNTY.
Sometime ago I had prepared what I
, supposed was a complete list of .ill the
Republican candidates, for the different
offices, to be voted for lune 7 prox. This
list was sent out with my tickets to dif
ferent parts of the county for tho con
venience of the voters. To day my at
tention was called to the fact that the
names of Eli J. MMore of Muddycreek
twp. and James L. Patterson of Jeffer
son twp., and G. W. Crowe of Forward
• twp.. candidates for County Commis
sion,snd J. C. Welsh for Treasurer, were
not on tho list. This was an inadvertence
and unintentional omission, I am sure,
although I do not yet know who is to
blame I publish this correction early for
fear that said list might mislead some
voters. |
When the omissions were discovered 1
the incorrect lists were destroyed and
correct lists sent out.

That Superior Court Record.
a ;
0 MR. EDITOR:
j Some one, who alleges by his signa
j ture that he is an attorney, undertakes
e' to answer in a circular letter, the
lt i article in last week's CITIZEN relating
| to Judge Greer's Superior Court record
1 j He says the article is the work of a
! novice* who had no knowledge of tiis
! subject and that it is a studied effort to
r j distort the facts and conceal the truth
Now. the article in question was a
e simple statement ot the number of oases
; tried in the whole State by the Superior
i Court since its organization, July, 1895;
n ' and the precentage of reversals was 275
e in the whole State: and the number of
I cases decided by Judge Greer and which
e j were appealed" to the Superior Court
a j from this countv were 33; the number
>- ' reversed was 17; and the percentage of
I Greer's reversals was all; and to prove
j that the writer did not desire to distort
.a ' the facts and that he has full knowledge
of his subject, a list of all the cases,
with reference to book and page where
l " they could be found, was given. There
was no untrue statemant in the article
t and Mr. Attorney well knows that and
he does not dare to point out any par
ticular statement as unture, He tries.
v however, to call attention away from i
the facts by talking about the whole j
e number of cases tried in this county bv ;
Judge Greer and figuring the percent- j
age of reversals upon that (after the
1 manner of Coin's Financial School)
7 Why does not Mr. Attorney tell us how j
i many cases not appealed should have
been, and were not, simply because the
1 amount involved would not justify the
expense? Why does not Mr. Attorney.
3 if he has knowledge of his subject and
t has no desire to distort the facts and
conceal the truth, give us the complete
Supreme Court record of his friend
Greer instead of a garbled extract from
L it? Why does he start with 1896. un
t less he desires to conceal the truth of
the record from 1893 to 1896; and why
' does he make the unture statement that
i Greer has only been reversed in one
. cise since 1896, unless be desires to dis
► tort the facts'?
The article Mr. Attorney pretends to
9 criticise is a true and complete state
f meut taken from the 18 volumes of the
1 Superior Court Reports. In order to get
. a similar true and complete record of
the Supreme Court cases.a search would
have to be made through some 57 vol
umes. It was too much trouble and
nothing at all was said about it Mr.
Attorney, however, raises the question
himself about the Supreme Court record
of Judge Greer and both coureals the
truth and distorts the facts. The whole
record of Jndge Greer's past 9 jears in
both the Superior and the Supreme
Court would average very little, if any.
better than hie Superior Court record
The Reports show that iu the whole
State there were 1946 cases.appealed to,
} and passed upon by the Superior Court.
- There being 110 Lower Court Judges in
the State. Thia shows an average per
Judge of 17J cases. Judge Greer's rec
; ord shows 33 cases already appealed and
- passed upon or nearly double the aver
age of all the other Lower Court Judges
in the State, and an examination <>f the
1 Reports from the Superior Court will
1 show that in the last few years Judge
c Greer's record in the matter of reversals
is getting worse instead of better, ahow
? ing that he is not improving by experi
-1 ence. Mr. Attorney and liia friend
' Greer were hard hit by the facts set
8 forth and hence had to hide behind s">nte
shadow to keep up appearances.

The Biddle Monument.
Unknown hands placed an evergreen
wreath on the Biddle monument, near
Mt. Chestnut, last Thursday.
The monument is of stone and was
placed there recently by two unkuown
men. They went to the Stephenson
house at Mr. Chestnut, where the Bid
dies and Mrs. Soffel stopped 011 Febru
ary 28 last in their flight from the Alle
gheny county jail. They asked to be
shown the place where the fight be
tween the Biddies and officers took
place, and which resulted in the killing
of the two doomed murderers—the IJ;d
dles-and the wounding of Mrs. Soffel,
the wife of the jail warden, who aided
the criminals to break jail.
The unknown men had a buggy, and
lames Stephenson conducted them to
the spot. The stone is one foot ncros-i
the base.is ?/i inches high above ground
