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

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

of the French republic, and while he

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."

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.

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

and women —their appeal should be to
the Creator, and not to the "worm* of
