AT Washington last Friday the an
thracite coal operators and railroad
presidents refused to listen to any pro
position President Mitchell of the U. S.
Mine Workers would make and the
conference called by President Roose
velt came to naught.
Since the conference the disorder in
the mining regions has increased, and
the entire state guard of ten thousand
men is in camp there. The operators
averred that with proper protection
thej-could operate the mines, and this
action of the Governor will probably
give them a chance to prove it.
Dalzell for Speaker.
Of all the men now in Congress the
one best fitted to succeed Speaker Hen
derson is John Dalzell. He is fully
equipped, in every way, for the place
and it is with more than ordinary
pleasure we see his name mentioned.
If the Pennsylvania members of Con
gress unite upon Mr. Dalzell, as we be
lieve they will, he will be chosen and
will be an honor to the State, as well as
a Speader of marked ability.
CURRENT"!EVENTS.
The late wrecking of several locomo
tives in this vicinity reminds one of the
remark of the President of a great rail
road company, that more trouble in
transportation arose from the lack of
locomotives than from any other cause.
The statement is remarkable in view
* of the fact that every locomotive shop
in the country is running day and night,
and some railway companies build their
own.
The railroads of this conntry are do
ing a larger business now than ever be
fore, and thongh enormous snms have
been spent on better equipment, larger
and stronger cars and rails, and easier
grades,what is called the "freight con
gestion" still continues.
The tremendous increase in railroad
tonnage is a testimonial to the general
prosperty of the Nation We are doing
a much larger commercial and manu
facting business than we did laat year,
and though but ten per cent, of it is
represented by cash,there was a "money
famine" in New York a few days ago,
which was temporarily relieved by
loans from the U. S. Treasury.
The volume of currency has not in
creased with the business, and Congress,
at its next session, will probablv be
asked to increase it.
This the twenty-second week of the
"strike" in the hard coal regions; all the
conferences regarding a settlement have
come to naught, and at the miners
meeting at Pittsburg, Sunday, one of
the speakers intimated that quo war
rants proceedings would be instituted
tinder the section of the state constitu
tion forbidding railroad companies from
engaging "directly or indirectly" in min
ing and manufacturing.
"It is now thirty seven years since
the sound of tramping armies in the
Civil War died away, and this week the
organization representing the survivors
will have its annual sessions at Wash
ington. A new generation has grown
up since the war ended, but the old
soldiers have not been forgotten. They
have a large place in the hearts of the
people and cannot complain that they
have been overlooked in any way. They
are growing fewer, but the sentiment
back of them is stronger all the time." —

•"It may not hurt us," said an old Re
publican, referring to the division of
Butler, "But that is not the way it was)
intended."
Gov. Stone. Judge Pennypacker, W.
M. Brown and Attorney General Elk in
addressed a large meeting held at Har
risbnrg, Saturday night. Gov. Stone
defended his administration and the
"ripper bill;" Judge Pennypacker talk
ed about railroad franchises; Brown
gaid a good word for the late Legisla
ture; and Elkin made a general Repub

It was an odd aggregation.
"Senator Hanna has pondered and
produced a new campaign phrase.
Those who have observed a pause in
the Ohio Senator's ambition to settle
strikes out of hand perceive the expla
nation now. The Senator was thinking
np a keynote, and has finally got it.
At the opening meeting of the Ohio
campaign he recalled the fact that two
years ago he said, "Let well enough
alone." Now he says, "Stand pat!"
We are not certain that the Senator's
second thought is as good as his first.
His campaign cry of IWM) was clear in
its meaning to all and apjiealed to all.
But there is a large and •eminently re
spectable class who may not compre
hend the full meaning of the phrase to
"stand pat." And when they learn
that it is a process in a game not wholly
countenanced in church society and in
tended to haul in the pot they may con
clude that neither the illustration nor

Tlie lOd it or anil the "Scorcher."
The editor of a paper published near
lowa City was asked the other day to
insert an article roasting a citizen.
"Certainly," he said to the caller, "what
shall I say V" He was furnished with
an outline of what *ns wanted, and
wrote an article that was a scorcher.
"That's splendid," exclaimed the friend;
"that'll make his hair crinkle." "All
right," said the editor, "let's see, what
are your initials';" "(lood heavens'"
said the citizen, "yon are not goifig to
sign my name to that? I wouldn't have
anyone know I had anything to do with
that for the world. I can't afford to get
into a scrap with my neighbors." The
editor smiled benevolently and said:
"Why should I mix np in a scrap that
does not concern me? Why should yon
expect me to assume the blame fur the
publication of an article to which yon
are afraid to sign your name?" The
man stopped the paper and went away
mad.
Entire X. U. P. Called.
After a long conference held at the
Executive Mansion in Harriburg, Mon
day night, with G«n. Miller. Gen. Gob
in, Gen. Stewart. Gen. Hnlings and
others. Gov. Stone decided to call out
the entire National Guard of the state,
and in his order gives his reasons, as
follows:
Headquarters National Guard. _
Adjutant General's Office,
Harrisbnrg. Oct. 6.
In certain portions of the counties of
Luzerne. Schuylkill, Carbon, Lacka_
wanna, Susquehanna. Northumberland
and Columbia tumults and riots fre
quently occur and mob law reigns. Men
who desire to work have been beaten
and driven away and their families
threatened. Railroad trains have been
delaved. stoned and the tracks torn up
The civil authorities are unable to
maintain order and have called upon
the governor and commander-in-chief
of the national guard troops
The situation grows more serious each
dav. The territory involved is so ex
t- nsive that the troops now on duty are
insufficient to prevent all disorder. The
presence of the entire division national
guard of Pennsylvania is necessary in
those counties to maintain order and
peace
The major-general commanding will
place the ent re division on duty, dis
tributing them in such localities as will
render them effective for preserving the
public peace.
As tumults, riots, mobs and disorder
usually occur when men attempt to
work in and about the coal mines, he
will see that all men who desire to work
and their families have ample military
protection. He will protect all trains
and other propertv from unlawful in
terference and will arrest all persons
engaging in acts of violence and intim
idation and hold them under guard un
til their, release will not endanger the
public peace; will see that threats, in
timidations, assaults and all acts of
violence cease at once
The public peace and good order will
be preserved upon all occasions and
throughout the several counties, and no
interference whatever will be permitted
with officers and men in the discharge
of their duties under the order. The
dignity and authority of the state must
be maintained and her power to sup
press all lawlessness within her borders
be asserted. By order of
WILLIAM A. STONE.
Governor and Commander-in-Chief.
THOMAS J. STEWART,
Adjutant General.
Orders followed to every Colonel and
every Captain in the state; every man
of the Guard was notified, transporta
tion and rations provided, and by the
end of the week ten thonsand men will
be in camp at the 150 different anthra
cite coal mines of the seven counties at
a cost to the state of a million or more,
according to the length of time they are
kept there. The expense to date of the
three-thousand now there is put at a
quarter of a million.
At Wilkes Barre, Monday, President
Mitchell of the Mine Workers Union is
sued the following:
"To District Secretaries and All Mine
Workers in the Anthracite Field:
"You have, no doubt, read in the
daily papers the proceedings of the con
ference at the White House last Friday
in which your officers proposed an im
mediate resumption of work if the opera
tors would agree with us to refer the
questions at issne in the strike to the
decision of the President of the United
States and a tribunal named by him.
You have noted the reply of the presi
dents of the coal-carrying roads, in
which they responded to our overtures
by denouncing your union, its members
and officers in the most vehement and
malicious manner possible. They also
declared that a large majority of tbe
strikers would retnrn to work if given
military' protection, and they demanded
that the President send United States
troops to the coal fields.
"In order to demonstrate to the peo
ple of our country that the statements
of the operators are unfounded and tha.t
the mine workers are law abiding citi
zens. the officers of all local nnions
shonld call mass meetings of all men on
strike, union and noil union, such meet
ings to be held in each mining town at
2 o'clock Wednesday afternoon, October
8. We know that the mine workers are
not restrained from going to work by
fear of bodily harm, and if this is the
sentiment prevailing at the meetings
resolutions should be adopted emphatic
ally declaring the statements of the
operators to be tin true.
"\Ve also advise that acts of lawless
ness by the coal and iron police and by
strikers be denounced and the services
of members of the union tendered the
local authorities to preserve law and
order
"Great care shonld be exerised that
those on strike do not permit themselves
to be provoked by the coal and iron po
lice into the commission of overt acts.
The operators, failing to break the
strike and deprive you of yonr well
earned victory, are now attempting to
array public sentiment against you by
making false claims that a reign of
terror exists in the coal fields. Be stead
fast and true while this struggle for
living wages and American conditions
of employment is going on, and we have
no hesitancy in saylog that victory will
be achieved in the not distant future.
The heart of the Nation beats in sym
pathy with you, and all good citizens
favor your cause."
This is the first time the entire guard
has been called out since the Home
stead riots of ten years ago, 1892.
The Butler .company was called to
arms, Tuesday noon, and waited around
till that night*(at about '! a. in.) when
their train came along, and they started
with other companies of their regiment
for the East.
The War Department received an
order from Governor Stone of Pennsyl
vania, Tuesday, for 10,000 pairs of shoes
and 2,500 blankets to lie delivered im
mediately. The blankets and shoes are
now available at Philadelphia and at
New York.
The State of Pennsylvania has ex
hausted its quota of the appropriation
allowed by Congress for militia supplies,
so that Governor Stone, though getting
the goods at cost price, will have to pay
$2 per pair for shoes and £i.so per pair
for the blankets.

H ill ami Pattisou.
Ex-Senator Hill of New York, has
been enjoyinj; the luxury of running a
Democratic State convention all his
own. His work is of some importance
because he is a candidate for the Presi
dential nomination, to which our own
Brother Pattison aspires. It is interest
ing to note the difference in the methods
of the two candidates.
Mr. Pattison. for instance, when he
held his convention at Erie, dared not
tonch upon a national topic. There
was nothing in his platform about
trusts or tariffs or free silver. He could
not face the multitude on snch matters
He confined his attention entirely to
w hat legislatures have or have not done
and then took the nomination for Gov
ernor himself, trusting to the luck which
has usually been his to pull him through
and thus make of him a prominent fig
ure in the Democratic party of the
country.
Mr. Hill, on the other hand, while re
fusing to lead his party as its standard
bearer, placed Bird S. Coler. his own
choice, on the ticket for Governor, and
thtn erected a platform built out of as
saults upon protection, the trusts and
the government' 9 policy in the Ph lip
pines. There is nothing particularly
new in Hill's platform except one thing
He advocates that the Nation shall seize
all of the anthracite mines and run
them. And yet he appeals to the prin
ciples of pure Jeffersonianism The
idea of connecting the name of Jefferson
with the confiscation of mines is about
as absurd as anything possibly could be
The Federal Government has no right
under the Constitution to invade Penn
sylvania and take the mines. It could
not do it, even if it would, but even if
it could, to attempt to do so would be
such a violent assault upon the rights
of States that it would make the old
time leaders of the Democratic party
turn in their graves. Pennsylvania
might proceed against the chartered
companies, but for Hill to advocate
National confiscation is t<» appeal to ig
norance and to sink to the level of a
pure demagogue. He is showing him
self to be a very unsafe man. He would
smash the trusts by smashing all busi
ness, and he would destrov prosperity
by violently overthrowing the protec
tion policy which has made the Nation
great.—Philadelphia Inquirer.

GRASS GROWING.
Honir I arfol Thins* Lrarnrd at tke
llhodc Inland Station.
The experiment for 1901 with grass
at rfce Rhode Island station was con
ducted on three plots seeded, manured
and treated alike in every respect to
date excepting that one plot has re
ceived no nitrogenous manures for
eleven years, while the second plot
has received a small dressing and the
third a large dressing of nitrate of
soda annually since 1892.
The top dressings for grass have
been applied annually either late in
April or very early in May, depending
upon the earliness of the season and
the climatic conditions.
Small annual dressings of nitrate of
soda gave a marked Increase in net
profit, but large dressings yielded a
far greater profit per acre than the
small ones. The value of the hay in
1901 in the case of the large applica
tion of nitrate of soda exceeded the
cost of the manures by $40.70 per acre.
All the evidence at hand is against
the employment of a Eingle manurial
ingredient only.
The use of a single manurial ingredi
ent could only be recommended if one
were positive that the soil contained
enough of all the other necessary con
stituents in assimilable form. Owing,
however, to the impossibility of Iffing
certain regarding this point, in most
instances the only sjffe course is to
supply sufficient amounts of all of the
manurial Ingredients to meet tife re
quirements of the grass.
Most Rhode Island soils are either
acid or readily become so; bonce the
grass land should usually receive
about a ton of air slaked lime or its
equivalent of wood ashes per acre at
of from five to seven years
prior to seeding.
Without the use of lime or wood ash
es continued success with clover, tim
othy and Kentucky blue grass is im
possible upon very acid soils unless
one makes repeated applications of
stable manure.
At present the great drawback to
profitable grass culture in New Eng
land is the neglect to systematically
top dress mowing lands and a general
lack of knowledge of the relative quan
tities and absolute amounts of chemi
cal manures to apply.
GREEN FEED.
I)arnyar«l Millet Df*lrmble For ICarly
Anicaul —Sow In May.
Barnyard millet (Panicum crus galll)
makes a desirable green feed for the
first three weeks of August. This va
riety of millet is becoming quite gen
erally known, and the seed can be pur
chased of the more prominent seeds
men. It is not, in the judgment of Dr.
Llndsey of the Massachusetts station,
as satisfactory a feed as corn, but it
lias Its place among the desirable for
age crops.
The millet is u warm weather plant
similar to corn. It will not stand dry
weather as well as the former, is a
heavy feeder and will do best upon a
warm, moist soil. It makes a very
rapid growth when the temperature is
high. If sown by itself, fourteen quarts
of seed are sufficient for one acre; when
combined with peas, eight quarts of
millet and one and one-half bushels of
peas are the quantities required.
The first seeding may be made to
gether with peas May 10 to 15. The
peas should first be sown and harrowed
in deeply and the millet covered more
lightly with harrow. Should the weath
er prove cool during the latter part of
May and early June the peas will grow
more rapidly than the millet, but with
the advent of a few warm days the
latter will rapidly overcome the disad
vantage.
A second and even a third seeding of
millet may be made (without peas) at
Intervals of twenty and fifteen days
respectively. The millet and peas will
lie ready to cut about Aug. 1, and the
other two sowings will follow, so that
green feed may be secured from this
crop during all of August, If desired.
Cutting should begin even before the
millet begins to head and can be con
tinued for ten or twelve days. When
ihe millet is well headed, it becomes
tough, and animals are likely to refuse
a considerable portion of the stems.
Millet does not make a satisfactory
hay because of the difficulty in drying.
Wyandottn Clilckeili.
There are five varieties of the Wyan
dotte —the Silver Laced, Golden, Huff,
White and Mack. The picture from
the Ohio Farmer shows a hen of the
——
BILVKU LACED WYANDOTTE.
Silver Laced variety. This variety has
nil very whit* plumage, with a black
lacing across the breast and with black
and white generously distributed over
the body.
The Journal mentioned points out
that the "breast of the female is 1m
portaiit In breeding true to name. The
white centers of each feather should
lie free from black or brown pencil
lug, and tlie luclng should be large and
distinct."

Only two week* left in which Suburbanite! etc
visit the I'itUburq Exposition.
Great crowds of Suburbanites already
have visited the New Exposition at Pitts
burg, and have returned ro their homes sat
urated with enthusiasm for the big show's
superior attraction. Indeed the attractions
tins year are of such a high order that to do
aught else hut enthuse over them were quite
out of the question.
In first instance the music presented to
date has completely swept Exposition visit
or* off their feet, for nothing so interesting,
elaborate and grand was dreamed of at tlie
insignificant admission fee of 25 rents. It
surely is like giving away gold dollars to
offer such music at such nominal prices.
The musical feature for the closing two
weeks of the Exposition is the great New
York orchestra of Walter Pamrosch, the
ever-popular young conductor, who all sum
mer lias been gathering novelties to place on
his Pittsburg programs. While Mr. Dam
rosch stands in truth for the highest in his
art, yet his concerts are arranged to please
and edify the largest number of people.
Assisting him this season will be Miss
Annie ISussert, a beautiful soprano soloist,
especially engaged from New York City.
Out-of -town patrons can not hut become en
amored nl this charmingyoung woman, who
besides glorying in a splendid, rich voice,
boasts a commanding stage presence, and
never fails to delight and fascinate her
hearers.
The exhibits have been completely changed
the past week, arid the New Exposition pre
sents a cleaner and more interesting face to-
than ever before.
The attractions are enjoying unusual pat
ronage because of their really high merit.
These in detail are the Cinematograph with
absolutely new pictures; the "Dancing
Marionettes," "Mt. Pelee in Eruption,"
"The I.aughing Gallery," Darkness and
Dawn," "The Haunted Swing," "The
Merry-go-round" and the favorite "To
boggan Slide."
All railroads entering Pittsburg have made
elaborate preparations to handle the record
breaking throngs that are sure to crowd the
Exposition buildings these last two weeks.
Ktinemher the excursion rate is one fare for
the round trip.

That the country Is the place to ac
quire and preserve health is a theory
that has been exploded by the L'uitcd
States census statistics. We have here
tofore been advised to go to the hills
and vales, the field and woodland, the
lake and river, where there is :HI unin
terrupted prospect and the air of heav
en has a free sweep, but now this ad
vlce must be changed and the pent up
cities recommended for health, if the
census authorities are right.
According to the official figures the
city has a decided advantage over the
rural districts in the matter of human
longevity. The average age reached ic
the cities is 35.2 years and in the coun
try 31.1. There the urban has an ad
vantage of 7.1 years over the suburban.
The advantage of pure air in the coun
try is apparently more than offset by
sanitary and food advantages in the
city.

It claims occurred-lit its town. A man
and his wife were riding home on a
street car. He was reading his paper,
when a Dot fief liul.v got on. The car
was crowded, ami vrlthout glancing up
he arose and gave her tils seat, receiv
ing a gracious smile In payment. Tho
man's wife immediately got up, gave
the bell rope a hnrd Jerk and invited
her husband to get off. When he
looked around to learn the cause of her
anger, he discovered that tte woman
to whom he had given his seat was his
first wife, whom lie had divorced two
years befi«re. They walked the rest
of the way home, and he Is still ex
plaining.

The woman from New England buys
a "tafilespread." while her sister from
the south buys a "tablecloth." The
woman from Novu JScotla orders the
servant to "lay the table," while with
most of us natives of the United .States
the command Is to "set the table." In
the country the hoHtiss says to her
guests. "Sit by." when it Is time to
eat; iu town It Is "Please sit down;"

the pear and tiie plum, when taken
ripe and without sugar, diminish acid

You cannot afford to miss visiting Pittsburg's "Great Exposition." +
THE TORN OF LIFE.
Its Probable Effect on Woman's
Health and Happiness.
Women look with apprehension upon
that time generally known as the
, ™ change of life." Observation has
shown them that sometimes that change
is so far-reaching that it involves both
mind and body in suffering. At such a
the mirror sometimes shows great
changes in the face; changes which
mark the pain atfd suffering which are
being endured. Often, too, in these
dolorous days there is almost complete
physical collapse. The suffering woman
drops into a chair and with closed eves
struggles upainst her weakness. The
suffering of this critical period in
woman's life often leaves its lasting scars
on the mind as well as the body. This
time of trial and trouble lias been passed
in ease and happiness by women who
had learned the wonderful value of that
woman's medicine, Dr. Pierce's Favorite
Prescription. By the use of this remedy
THE "CHANGE" IS CHANGED
from a time of distress and misery to a
lime of comfort and happiness.
" It is now two years since I first tx-jjau
to use your medicines," writes Mrs.
Charles E. Thompson, of Georgetown,
Eldorado Co., Cal. "I first tried the
' Favorite Prescription' and found that
before I had taken one bottle I was im
proving. When I commenced to take
the medicine I thought I would never
live through the ' change.' I suffered
from all the troubles one could have and
live. I had stomach trouble; lived on
dry bread and hot water for three
months, not being able to keep any food
on my stomach; had constipation and
awful headaches; was bloated at time*
in the bowels, had paii; in the chest and
hacking cough, but, thanks to Dr. Pierce
lam not troubled any more. I used the
' Pellets • and the ' Goldeu Medical Dis
covery ' in connection with ' Favorite
Prescription,' and find all of them Just
as Dr. Pierce recommends them to be.
"Since last October I ha*» traveled
over hard, rocky roads in farm wajjons,
and felt no return of any of my old
troubles, und I kpow that before using
Dr. Pierce's medicines I could not have
stood half of it, as tha least jar would
have caused aching from head to foot.
"I most highly recommend all of Dr.
Pierce's medicines, and*l hope all ladies
suffering from female complaint will try
Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription."
The claim made for Dr. Pierce's fV
vortye Prescription that it makes weak
women strong and sick women well is
a comprehensive one and covers every
form of womanly weakness or sickness
which medicine can fx- expected to cure.
"Favorite Prescription" establishes reg
ularity and dries the offensive drains
which weaken women. It quenches tlie
fire of inflammation, heals the gnawing
ulcur, and cure# the backache uud bear-

ing-down pains inseparable from femalf
weakness. Mothers find in " Fa\'oritft
Prescription " a wonderful tonic, impart

the appetite and inducing refreshing
sleep. It keeps the prospective mother'
in health ana strength and makes Um
baby's advent practically painless.
fILAIMS VS. CURES.
It ic very much easier to make claims
than to make cures. It is by its cures
"Favorite Prescription" is to be judged
and by the multiplied testimonies to
these cures given by the grateful women
who have been restored to perfect heakh
and strength through the use of this
great medicine.
" About five years ago I had verjfrpoor
health," writes Mrs. S. E. Wlialen, of
Holden, Johnson Co., Mo. "After fac
toring four years with our town doctors
they give my case upj said they had
done all they could* I had been con
fined to my bed half my time ; the other
half could hardly drag around. I had
such pains in my back and abdomen I
could not ctapd on my feet for more
than a few minutes. My feet were cold
or burning, and my periods catne too
often. The doctors said it wasfchange
of life, so, as I had heard of Dr. Pierce's
medicines, my husband got me a Bottle
of ' Favorite Prescription.' I took it
•nd it heified me in some I
wrote to you and followed your ad*ice.
I commenced ' Favorite Prescription,'
4 Golden Medical Discovery' and the
'Pleasant Pellets,' as I was so consti
pated all the time and pills would
weaken me so that I would hare to go
to bed. To the great surprise of every
body I got well, and when I met my
friends they would say ' I never thought
▼ou would De here now.' But I can say
It was your medicine, which no doubt is
the best in the world. Have no use for
doctors since I tried your medicine."
Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription is
purely a vegetable preparation ?nd can
not disagree with the weakest constitu
tion. It contains no alcohol and is abso
lutely free from opium, cocaine, and all
other narcotics.
Accept no substitute for " Favorite Pre-,
scription" if you wish to be cured ai
others have been. Insist upon the remedy
with a record for the cure of weak and
sick women.
Women suffering from disease .in
chronic form are invited to consult Dr.
Pierce, by letter, fret. All correspond
ence is held as strictly private and
aacredly confidential and the written
confidences of women are guarded by
the same strict professional privacy ob
served in personal consultations. Ad

" FOREWARNED —FOREARMED."
That saying has a most forceful appli
cation to matters relating to disease and
health. To be forewarned against dis
ease, to know its c»use and its cure, is to
arm the health beforehand against many
maladies. Dr. Pierce's Common Sense

ing. It teaches how to protect and pre
serve the health. This valuable work,
