POLITICAL.
The political sensation of last week
was the reported candidacy of J. Donald
Cameron for U. S. Senator to succeed
Boise Penrose
In reviewing the matter, R. W. Her
bert in an interesting article in the
Pittsburg Times says:
"Occasionally in the political haunts
in and about Harrisburg one hears re
ports that Mr. Quay has promised to
make L A. Watres the successor to Mr.
Penrose. While everybody believes tha*
Mr. Quay is comtemplating a jolt of
some kind for Penrose, no one I elieves
that Watres will in any way figure in
the jolting plans. Mr. Watres had 12
or 15 delegates at the recent convention
and he delivered them oyer to Mr.
Quay, possibly on a solemn promise of
some kind,but if the Senatorship figured
in the promise, then the promise is not
to be kept, and Mr. Quay never intend
ed it should be. Lackawanna, the home
of Mr. Watres, has already instructed
the four Representatives and one Sena
tor likely to be sent to Harrisburg next
winter for Congressman William Con
nell for United States Senator.
Sometimes a politician with his own
county against him lands something,
but such occasions are rare. The fact
that Mr. Quay has promised Watres is
not surprising. Mr. Quay promised
several. Republicans,among theui Frank
M. Fuller, of Fayette county, to make
them Secretary of the Commonwealth
under Judge S. W. Penny packer after
he is elected Governor, in order to in
duce them to abandon John P. Elk in
and turn in for "Cousin Sam," and
these several promises were made in the
face of the f act that one Secretary of
the Commonwealth fills the constitu
tional requirement for that particular
office.
Mr. Watres may have been offered the
salary of the United States Senator, just
as some of the would-be Secretaries of
the Commonwealth were provided for,
but he was not promised the Senator
ship with any view to keeping the
promise. That is certain.
The friends of Attorney General
Elkin must be reckoned with in the
selection of a United States Senator,
and that fact, almost as much as the
demands of the "great business inter
ests," is influencing the general con
version now going on toward Mr. Cam
eron. The Dauphin county Republi
cans who were Elkin adherents have
consented to stand for Cameron's can
didncy for the place now occupied by
Mr. Penrose largely because they are
out to punish Mr. Penrose for the
strong-arm part he took in throwing
Elkin delegates out of the recent con
vention. W. W. Griest, Secretary of
the Commonwealth and political boss of
Lancaster county, has served notice that
the Lancaster delegation will support
Cameron against Penrose for the same
reason, and Mr. Griest takes some pride
in the announcement that, while he
would be glad to be for Cameron
against Penrose, he has never seen Mr.
Cameron.
Before leaving camp (at Gettysburg)
former State Senator James G. Mitchell
of Jefferson county, announced that he
would lie a candidate for United States
Senator against Mr. Penrose. With
Congressman William Connell, of
Scranton, and State Senator W. P.
Snyder, of Chester, Mr. Mitchell will be
able to tie up more legislators than
would have been necessary to defeat
Mr. Quay at the last session of the Leg
islature; but that is not enough. The
plans contemplate at least a half dozen
more favorite sons throughout the State.
The purpose is not to endanger the
supremacy of the Republican party,
but to take Mr. Penrose out ot State
polities, and the political prophets agree
that the plans now laid will do that be
yond question.
"The Democratic State managers are
taking a lively interest in the Union
party convention to be held in Phila
delphia on September 3rd, and are
planning to have the Democratic State
ticket endorsed. It is said that the
Democrats will give all the money
necessary to make the Union party an
active annex to the Democratic organi
zation if the Unionists will come into
camp."—Ex.
A Hold Up.
By a vote of 10 to 50, the Board of
Aldermen of New York, on Tuesday,
refused to grant to the Pennsylvania
Railaoad Company the franchise for
building its tunnel from New Jersey to
Long Island City.
The Aldermen violently denied that
there was any "hold up," or that the
refusal was part of a scheme to force
the road to pay enormous sums for
votes. To the surprise of everyone, in
cluding members of the l>oard, Borough
President Jacob A. Cantor took a firm
stand against granting the franchise.
THE officials of Oregon and Washing
ton states have stopped looking for
Tracy, although the rewards for him,
"dead or alive," now aggregate SH,OOO.
He had a bad record in Colorado in the
late nineties, and was chased out of
that state and went to Oregon, where
he soon landed in the pen. at Salem.
Ho pud another convict got out of the
pen. by killing two guards and wound
ing some others; the two were chased
north acrops the Columbia river, and
into the wooded country south of Seat
tic. He killed ssvernl of his pursuers,
and also his comrade, of whom he be
came tired; and yet roams at large
through the forests, and helps himself
to the necessaries of life at the farm
bouses.
THE flurry in corn came to an end
last week—prices dropped faster than
they rose. Gates and his crowd proba
bly made some money by their venture,
but nothing like they expected. There
was more corn in the country than they
knew of. One lot of a hundred thous
and bushels was shipped from Buffalo
to Chicago.
Oyster Bay.
Senator Spooner was in conference
with President Roosevelt regarding the
Panama Canal la»-t week and he (and
not Krox has been selected to go to
Paris to pass upon the title of the
French Company. There will l>e no
trouble with Columbia as to the treaty
or lease; and it is said that General
Wood will have charge of the construc
tion of the canal.
Gen. Davis is to succeed Gen. Chaffee
in the Philippines. Gen. Smith was
censured and placed on the retired list
for issuing his "kill and burn' order in
Samar.
As to the proposed purchase by the
government of the lands of the Friars
or Monks in the Philippines, and the
visit of Gov. Taft to the Pope at Rome,
the Ob3ervatore Romano says that the ne
gotiations between the Vatican and the
American Philippine commission were
conducted in a conciliatory spirit and
with "friendly deference" on the part of
the mission.
It further says that a basis of common
understanding, which is mutually satis
factory, has now been laid down, and
that further negotiations will be devel
oped in detail at Manila by the Apostolic
Delegate and Goy. Taft.
The paper praises the initiative, loyal
ty and wisdom of the American policy,
which has thus happily achieved
success.
The Philippine Commission will on
Monday be received in a farewell au
dience bv the Pope. On the evening
of that day Gov. Taft and his staff will
start for Naples, where they will em
bark for Manila. Mgr. O'Gorman will
remain here.
The reports that the Vatican has re
ceived of agitations in Spain render it
temporarily dangerous to come to a
definitive resolution concerning the
monks in the Philippines, but the
matter will be arranged suitably by
Gov. Taft and the Apostolic Delegate at
Manila.
The Railroad War.
I Pittsburg Dispatch.)
Preliminary moves in what promises
to be the greatest railroad fight in his
tory have been in progress for some
weeks, and have occupied the attention
of the financial world almost to the ex
clusion of other events.
Should this fight be carried on to a
.logical conclusion there will be such a
shakiug up in transportation interests
as will come well-nigh "staggering
humanity," to borrow a phrase of aged
Kruger. There are some good reasons
to believe that the fight will not be
carried out, but that a compromise will
be arranged. In any event the situa
tion is one of unusual interest and the
result of more than passing interest,
since they lie at the base of the entire
transportation system of the country.
The parties to this contest on the
surface are George J. Gould, represent
ing the Wabash interests, and A. J.
j Cassatt, representing the Pennsylvania.
It is evident, however, that interests
even more far reaching than the mighty
ones centered in these great railway
properties are involved, and the strug
gle, if it comes in earnest, will see rang
ed on one side or the other nearly all
the gTeat railway and banking interests
of the country.
Mr. Goald is believed to have the
backing of Mr. Harriman, representing
the Union-Centrnl-Southern Pacific in
terests. together with the National City
Bank of New York, and the Standard
Oil interests. These include financiers
as prominent as any in New York out
side of J. Pierpont Morgan & Co.
With Mr. Cassatt is believed to be as
sociated the Vanderbilt interests and
probably Morgan & Co. It should be
remembered, however, that in this con
test the Pennsylvania will have the sup
port of the Baltimore & Ohio, which it
controles, and perhaps owns; the Chesa
peake & Ohio, in which it has a large
interest; the Norfolk & Western, also
under its control, and perhaps the Read
ing, which, it is believed, is now pass
ing into the hauds of the Baltimore &
Ohio, which would give it over to the
Pennsylvania.
The Teacher.
To enkindle in the mind of youth a
resolution to excell, to become great in
the noblest sense of the term, and to
place him on the path to usefulness and
honor, is certainly an occupation worthy
of the greatest minds.
"Scratch the green rind of a sapling,"
said Henry "Ward Beecher, "or wan
tonly twist it in the soil,and a scarred or
crooked oak will tell of the act for
centuries to come. So it is with the
teachings of youth, which make im
pressions on the mind and heart that
are to last forever."
A teacher should be kind and sympa
thetic. He should lie a lover of truth
and justice and all manly virtues. IK
should love his profession and realize
that he is the architect of human souls
And when such a man is found h--
should be generously rewarded and re
tired on a liberal pension when too old
for service.—The Spirit.

while the doctor was visiting a patient

WHS called to that place, drove there,
and fell dead while counting his pa- j

dence in Mars, Monday, and was large- j

WARTS AND WEEDS.
THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN
WISHING AND WORKING.
It is popularly believed that warts can
be wishea away. But the farmer who
gat down and tried to clear his field by
wishing the weeds away would soon find
his crops gone. It takes working to get
rid of weeds, and the man with the hoe
must put in many a long day before he
can take a well earned rest.
It is a singular fact that a great many
people treat certain forms of disease as
warts are said to be treated—by wishing.
Tli ic j. »crv./~l.llv <./, in of
coughs. "I wish this cough didn't
bother ine so," they say. "I wish my
cough didn't keep me awake so much,"
and so on. It never seems to occur to
them that it takes active measures to get
rid of a cough ; that a cough is like a
weed, growing right along, and the
longer it grows the deeper it strikes its
roots.
If a man heard the alarm of a rattle
snake near by he'd jump aside at once
to avoid the attack and then seek to
find and destroy the dangerous reptile.
The cough is a danger alarm as much
more significant than the rattle of the
snake as the disease it heralds is more
dangerous than the snake bite.
FEW PEOPLE ARE KILLED
by suake bites each year. Consumption
slays its thousands and tens of thousands
annually and it is the fatality of con
sumption which makes the cough that
heralds it a danger signal to be promptly
heeded. Don't wish the cough would
•top. Stop it!
" I had long been a sufferer from
chronic catarrh of the head," says Chas.
T. Stone, Esq., of Whitford, Chester
Co., I'a. "About last May it developed
into a very disagreeable and hacking
cough, with soreness and fullness of the
chest. Doctors here pronounced it bron
chitis. I tried several doctors and took
different remedies without receiving any
benefit whatever. I then consulted Dr.
R. V. Pierce, in reference to my case.
The first bottle of his ' Golden Medical
piscovery' stopped the cough. I used
•everal bottles, with Dr. Sage's Catarrh
Remedy, and have since had no symp
tom of a return of the cough."

bad gough, and also left my lungs in a
very bad condition," writes Jonn M.
Russell, Esq., of Brent, Cherokee Nat.,

so weak I could scarcely walk. My
breast was all sore with running sores.
I got two bottles of Dr. Pierce's Golden
Medical Discovery which I believe saved
my life. I cannot express my gratitude
to you. lam able now to do very good
work."
