THE BUTLER CITIZEN. WILLIAM a BfEGLKT - Publisher. Thtthsdat, ACCCST 1%, IVA. t\M ptr year ia A4?»acr, ott*rwl*e $1 J® REPUBLICAN TICKET. President —Theodore Roosevelt, Vice President— C. W. Fairbanks. Supreme Judge —John P. Elkin. Congress—Hon. Geo. F. Huff. State Senate—George W. McNees. Legislature—Hon. Thomas Hays, Dr. W. R. Hockenberry, District Attorney—Samuel Walker, Clerk of Courts—L. E. Christiey. POLITICAL. J. A McCafferty, of Penu twp. and H. A Beaton of Zelienople were placed on the Democratic ticket by the County Committee, Tuesday, as nominees for Assembly. Congressman John Dalzell, having of fered his services to the Republican party in the coming presidential cam paign, *""■ been placed at the disposal of the national congressional committee and during the entire campaign he will speak only in close congressional dis tricts throughout the country. As one of the leading exponents of protection and other Republican doctrines in the national house of representatives, brought into still greater prominence by bis debate with W. Bourke Cochran, he is in demand in all parts of the wan try. The national campaign will open about the middle of September. The managers of the Republican cam paign experienced a deep sense of relief when they read Judge Parker's speech of acceptance. There, appears to have been something of a jubilee at the White House among President Roosevelt and his personal friends. Judge Parker ha* been an unknown quantity, and since he broke silence by his gold standard telegram there has been some uneasi ness on the Republican side as to whetb er be had a reserve force whose mani festations won Id give the campaign a character yet to be disclosed The speech of acceptance has ended all such apprehensions. Judge Parker's capacity for initiative statesmanship was evident ly completely exhausted when be screwed bis courage up to the point of ■ending that telegram. In every other respect be is docile and subservient, adapting the evasions and inconsisten cies of the St. Louis platform so meekly that he may be said to have crawled under the platform rather than taker, •oy stand upon it The radical wing ot the Democrat party sniff scornfully over his platitudes. Tbeir opinion is well summed up by ex- Goreroor Hogg of Texas, who say* of tbe speech: "In diction it is elegant, in promise it is faint, in material dil atation it is a trimmer " Governor Hogg goes on to say that tbe South will not be satisfied unless be pledges him self to do nothing to thwart or hinder tbe completion of the Panama canaL— Gazette. ALL these Chinese names now appear ing in tbe war news mean something. Ling means a mountain pass; Motien ling, where Gen. Keller wss killed mwins tbe skyscraping pass; bo is river; sbao is bill; cbeng or Yang is city or castle; wan is bay; tun, village; tien, shop or inn; king, capital: jib, station; tlft, island, etc. IT IS rather astonishing to learn that this year almost one-fifth of the young men and women applying for licensee to practice medicine In Pennsylvania bare been refused because they could not pass the examination, though it is at* ted that the examination was no harder than usual. In this age we are coming more and more to require an enlarged amount of knowledge on the part of those who nn dertake professional work of any kind. Not only lawyers and physicians most undergo examinations, but dentists, pharmacists, undertakers, and in Home States even barber*, must pass scrutiny before they are permitted to ply their calling. This Is entirely proper. We hare not yet reached anything like an advanced stage of knowledge concern ing human life and disease, but we are beginning to understand how little we know and bow necessary it is to compel tbose who attempt to treat the sick to become as proficient as possible. For thousands of years the credulity of man kind has been played upon by tbose who bare bad a certain amount of personal magnetism and little skill.—Ex. FIGHTING FOR AN IDEA. A Stuttgart magazine publishes a let tar from a Russian staff officer in the field which, after declaring that the sit uation is more serious for the Russian cause than any one supposes, and that tbe Russian troops are fighting with out heart or hope, make* a statement that undoubtedly assigns the true cause. "Our soldier*," be say*, "fight with indifference, nnder compulsion." On Japan's part "this is a war for an idea which penetrates all without ex caption, from the minister to tbe hns band man. " This is a factor which has often de elded the fate of nations. Other things beidg equal, or even nnbject to a reason able disparity, the men who fight for an Idea, and that idea the welfare of their country, are the most terrible antago nists. This fact, too, hasthe most import ant bearing on tbe question of ttanding armies and professional soldiers, Mili tary training Is of course, necessary, but wben the training is secured the men who serve from conscience, con rictiou, lore of conn try, are many time* tbe most superior troops. This is htatory. Miltiades' Ten Thou sand brought together to rescue their country were able to put to rout the hundreds of thousands of Persian mer cenanes. Cromwell* Ironsides, when they bad learned the art of war. were tbe superiors of Prince Rupert's dash tog troopers who bad before that carried all before tbem. The force that really made Napoleon's conquests possible was the patriotism engendered by tbe birth of the French republic, and while he perverted that apirit to conquest for the glory of France It Is noticeable that wben he bad wasted the men that he Inherited from tbe republic his power began to wane. In Swiss |>easiints . fighting Hgain*t German and Burgun dlan trained troops. Boers again*t tbe strength of the British Empire, or Jap anese driving tbe gigantic Rus*lan Bear into a corner, the force of patriotism and devotion Is a great one Tbe way to cultivate patriotism I* to make the government clearly for the benefit of all class** alike The \» st military preparation is to keep the sys tern so clear from favoritlam and prlvi lege that tbe rnaisis will lie ready to ti(hit for its preservation,—Dispatch. WAR N'OTKx The attempt of the Russian fleet to escape Irom Port Arthnr was the most interesting feature of last week's war ne-r« Darin* the week the Jap* captur*-d Wolf Hill, a on the land "ride of the Port that enable* their lons-ramr* guns to throw shells into the town and inner hnrljor: and the Jap Commander iseaed an order permitting all non-com batant—women, children, priests, mer chants. etc. —to leave the Port and go to Dalney. The Russian fleet in the harbor was liable to damage by the shells, and so a desperate effort was made to es cape. The Russian fleet, consisting of six battleships, four cruisers and some tor ;ie«lo boats, emerg'-d fi om the harbor on Wednesday morning, the l(>th, and headed eastwards toward the Eliot islands—no donbt intending to circle around the Jap fleet, which was not in sight at the time and give battle after joining the Vladivostock squadron, further sopth. But the Japs caught up with them and a fight began at 1 p.m. which lasted until dark, when the Rus sian fleet scattered and fled in all direc tions. The Czaravitch, the Russian flagship, was crippled early in the bat tle, the other Russian vessels circled around her, and the fightine was desper ate. Admiral Withoff and four of his lieutenants were blown to pieces by a shell that exploded near them. The torpedo boats seem to haye taken but little part in the fight, probably on account of rough water, but the Jap gunners riddled the Russian vessels, while themselves escaping with but lit tle injury; Admiral Togo reported no vessels seriously injured and but 170 men killed When darkness came the Russian ves sels scattered and fled in all directions. The Czarvitch and three cruisers, all crippled got into the harbor of Tsing Cbou, in the German concession, on the Shantung peninsula, and as they were unable to leave within tbe24-bour limit, their colors was hauled down, and they were dismantled, and will remain so I during the war. This is an inglorious ending for the Czarvitch, which was built for the Russiaos by a French firm, and was considered to be the finest battleship afloat. Some other Russian vessels took ref uge in the Chinese port of Cbee Foo, and tbe Japs went in and captured one (which was against tbe rules of war), and some are supposed to have returned to the outer harbor of Port Arthur, but within the line of floating mines. In this battle, as in the others that have preceeded it, the Jap shells hit the mark, while those of the Russians did not. At dawn of Sunday morning Admir al Kamimura with his fleet, encounter ed the Russian Vladivostock fleet in the straits of Corea, near the Tsu island, and during a battle lasting for five hours, s&rik one Kussian vessel and caused the rest to flee. The Japs saved 600 of the Bunk's crew. Early Tnesday morning those Ru*- [ sian vessel* which had escaped Togo's fleet, in the darkness, and had taken shelter in the outer harbor, of Port Ar thur, attempted to escape, and one was sunk by the Japs. The*e battles effectually end Russian naval power in the eastern seas, and ends interference with Japan's corn met ce. excepting by privateers. Yeiterdiy the Japs were reported to making their final attack on Port Arthur, which was expected to capitu late anytime. At Liao Yang and vicinity no Kreat change ha* been made in the situation during the past week. The Jap* have been impeded in their operation* by tre mendous rain*, which have retarded their advance, particularly their artille ry train*, but they are sending an army up the Liao river to Sinmintun, a town thirty miles west of M ukden; and seem to be awaiting the fall of Port Arthur before making their final attack on Knropatkin'* army. Yesterday Port Arthnr was reported burning. The Japs asked them to sur render and thus save further bloodshed and destruction. GKN JOHN C. BLACK of Chicago, is the present commander-in-chief of th'- O. A. R.. having liwii elected at the Han Francisco encampment la*t year to succeed Thomas J. Stewart of Penn'a. The Grand Army, according to it* la*t report, nnmbered 3,557 posts and 250,510 members. The losses by death during the preceding year had been 8,800, or 322 per cent. The losses during the present year can hardly have beeu less, so that the membership is now below the quarter million mark. Jri inwt it reached u total of 4TH>,4H7, since which time It has steadily decreased at an in creasing ratio. New York state has the largest membership, Zii.OHH at present; and Pennsylvania stands next with 29,425. Hut perhaps the most surpris ing fixate* in the column are those which show that Alabama boast* 120 O. A. H. men. The »Hth national en campment opened at Boston, Monday. Rkv. SOMEUOIjy of Pittsburg "got on hi* ear," the other day, when asked to Niibscribe to a new ladle* annex to a church college, and told the collector that there were too many typewriters now, that his wife had been looking for a cook for three week* and couldn't fiud one, and that he would sulMcrilie to an Institution to teach housework. "Woman * supreme function Is that of the homemaker. The mother who fail* to Instruct her daughter In these funda mental duties, duties which nhould be pleasure*, 1* sowing a harve*t of tare* which her child will reap. There can be no happy family life in furnished flat*, you cannot raise n healthy family upon canned Houps The home Is the foandatioi of individual happlne** and auccesH, no !<•** than of national great ne** and progress Everything that lends to diminish the respect In which the homemaker'* vocation is held is a blow at morality and health. Our girls should 1m taught to cook and sew, to wash and iron, and if one home has a surplus of girl* there should be no hesi tation about going out to nervice in some other home not *imllarly ble*sed. No labor Is degrading, least of all that whl'-h makes a happy fireside clime. It is from among snch girls that the wives and mother* of the coming generation will lie chosen. No one I* fit to rule a household who has not served in one The reluctance of young men in our day to assume the resjiorisi bill ties of matrimony may be due in large measure to the dearth of domestic girl*. Th" young men of our day have common nense, and they know that ability to measure off a yard of ribbon, or to sell pickle jars, or even to write shorthand, will not make a home."

Saturday, after two days' terrible suffering from hydrophobia He was bitten by a dog about three months ago. Before his death he growled and snapjied like a dog and had to be chained and strapped to bis cot. C. B. Smallwood, a trainman on the Bessemer tells his experience in a re cent smash up at Rnral Ridge on that road: The first Smallwood saw of the impending disaster was the car in front of him jump the track The second soon followed and then the car he was on began to dance. He had time to jump but a bank on either side made this nselesa.so he stuck to his post In a few seconds he was thrown off aud bis car and the one in front formed an arch over him He lay still and waited for them to rjnit piling up, bnt it seem ed a year before the crashing and smashing stopped. When all was quiet there were 23 steel hoppers above him. Then be crawled out just as Conductor Mos'er came back to get his remains. Afterward he remembered he had left hi* hat nnder the wreck and crawled back to get it. 7)1 L NOTES. The Market—Remains at $1.50. Penn twp—The Hazlewood Oil Co has a 25 bbl well on the Albert Wil.le.

Wii.i. someltody please tell ns what a (Socialist Is; that is what he l>clieveM in what his principles are. Another big, fat fellow mounted a store box on the Diamond the other evening, and told us about the different kinds of slaves, the dangers of malaria from swamps, and a hundred other things, and every now and then he would an nounce that he was a Socialist. But what is Socialism? He did not say,and nobody seems to know. If it i* equtili ty these fellows are after the physical, mental and spiritnal equality of men and women —their appeal should be to the Creator, and not to the "worm* of of the Earth."
