POLITICAL.
At the meeting of the Democratic
conferees in Pittsbarg, Saturday, C. M.
Heineman of the Butler Times was
unanimously awarded the Democratic
nomination for Congress in this, the
22nd Pennsylvania district.
"Good government brings good times"
says Senator Fairbanks. We have been
and are still having good times; there
fore, we have had and are still having
good government. Why should we
change it for an uncertainty ?
In this season of roorbacks, political
and otherwise, the report that a Massa
chusetts shipyard is building five sub
marine boats for Japan does not create
the sensation that it might in more
stagnant times. People now merely ex
press a mild curiosity to know if it is
true.
ToafWatson writes that he is trying
to organize "a really Jeffersonian move
ment" in the South. Look out for a
great rattling of dry bones in that
section.
The Hon. John W. Kern, the Demo
cratic candidate for Governor of Indi
ana,, takes serious exception to the cam
paign methods followed by the Eastern
Parker managers. Mr. Kern seems to
thinlr that political arguments suited
to the longitude of New York are whol
ly unsnited to the longitude of Indiana.
Nor does he care to have new fangled
Eastern ideas tried ont on the unterrified
and loyal Hoosier voter. On two points
Mr. Kern is especially emphatic. He
gives fair warning that the "safe and
Mae" spellbinder invading Indiana bad
better sing low on the "heroism" of
Judge Parker's post nomination declar
ation for the gold standard; and out
raged "vindicators of the Constitution"
had better play the soft pedal when at
tacking the "lawless personality" of
President Roosevelt. Mr. Kern says
that the great heart of the Indiana
Democracy still beats true to free silver
coinage and to the "peerless leader" of
1806 and 1900. "Every attack on
Bryan," he reports, "and every slur on
Mm cast by tbe Eastern Democratic
press is Utterly resented throughout
this State, and does incalculable harm."
President Roosevelt's letter is alike
■' * meuitauiß us mm iiua w tea mtion. ir
pats this Republic upon a lofty plain,
1 and is well worth the perusal of every
human being in tbe world who is cap
able of reading and comprehending, for
it ia not only a splendid testimonial to
H the efficiency of the Republican party,
bat a most lucid revelation of the aims
and aspirations of the American Nation.
Below are given a few of the glowing
fnttnan from this able and luminous
document that are worth committing
to memory:
No other administration in onr his
tory, BO other government in the world, I
has more consistently stood for the
broadest spirit of brotherhood in our
~ common humanity, or has held a more
resolute attitude' of protest against
OTMf wrong that outraged the civiliza
tion of the world at home or abroad.
It has behaved towards all Nations,
strong or weak, with courtesy, dignity
justice, and it is now on excellent
terms with them all.
Our foreign policy has been not only
advantageous to the United States, but
hardly lees advantageous to the world
as a whole. Peace and good will have
followed in its footsteps.
It is but ten years since the last at
tempt was made, by means of lowering
f the tariff, to prevent some people from
- . prospering too much. The attempt was
entirely successful.
To uproot and destroy the Protective
system would be to insure the prostra
tion of business, the closing of factories,
tiki impoverishment of the farmer, the
xoin of the capitalist and the starvation
of tbe wage-worker.
Daring the last five years more has
been done for the material and moral
well-being of the Filipinos than ever be
fore since the island first came within
tbe ken of civilized man.
We do not stand still. We press
steadily forward toward the goal of
moral and material well-being for our
own people. Of just and fearless deal
lag toward all other peoples. In the in
terest not merely of the country, bnt of
mankind. There is not a policy, foreign
or domestic, which we are now carry
ing ont which it would not be disastrous
to reverse or abandon.
We have striven both for civic right
eousness and for national greatness; and
we have faith to believe that our hands
will be upheld by all who feel love of
ooontry and trust in the uplifting of
mankind
We hold ever before us the all-import
ant end of policy and administration
tbe reign of peace at home aud through
out the world: of peace which comes
only by doing justice.
Religion of tbe Japanese.
Since the promulgation of the new
oonstitution in 1889 the Japaneso have
had no state religion. By the new con
stitution absolute freedom of speech
and of religion was guaranteed. Pre
vious to that time Buddhism was the
•tate religion, although Shintoiem
largely predominated. Tbe Sbintos
have 191,962 temples and shrines, and
and although it has no priests, no doc
trinal system, and no moral code, it has
asarly fourteen thousand gods, before
whom, or some of whom, certain offer
ings are made from time to time, to
whom on certain occasions prayers are
addressed and before whom certain cer
emonial dances are performed. Shinto
seems to be a sort of homeopathic re
ligion—lf it don't do any good it won't
do yon any harm. It neither makes its
adherents better nor worse. It does
not aim to improve the moral nature,
but is merely a form of ancestor wor
ship which perhaps amuses as well as
flatters the vanity of the Japanese.
Buddhism, with its gorgeous temples
aad gilded images, was introduced into
Japan in the seventh century and has
BOW maty adherents, there being 71,977
Buddhist temples and monasteries and
54,685 priests.
Christianity comes third in numer
ical strength, there being, in 1900, 42,-
272 Protestants, 54.002 Roman Catho
lics and 25.693 Greek Catholics
tbe upper clasjes agnosticism
prevails. Buddhism requires little
more of its adherents than the Shinto
religion. It teaches that salvation may
be Obtained merely by taitb in tbe mer
cy of Amida, and no change of heart or
conduct is required. All that is neces
sary i* to love one another, keeping or
derly and observing the laws of the
«KUtQC.
Conditions in New York.
Much of the political interest of the
day is centering in the state of New
York.
At their State convention at Saratoga
last week the Republicans nominated
the present Lieutenant Governor, Frank
W. Higgins, for the head of the ticket
This was accomplished through the in
fluence of Governor Odell, who was op
posed by Senator Piatt Odell refused
to take Woodward, who had the sup
port of Piatt. It was a contest in which
Odell was forced to show that he was in
command of the organization, and as a
result the Senator is deposed from the
supreme command which he has so long
exercised. The candidate is a man of
sterling worth and of independent judg
ment, and he will grow in the estima
tion of tbe people as he becomes better
known to them, but there is nothing so
incalculable in our politics as the size of
the independent vote in New York, and
it is liable to go one way or another
with tremendous results. This fact
stands out plainly in past election re
turns. In 1888 Harrison carried the
state by a plurality of 14,373. but at the
same election Hill was elected governor
by the Democratic party by a plurality
of 19,171. In 1892 Cleveland carried
the state by a plurality of 45,518, and
two years later Hill, tbe Democratic
candidate for governor, was swamjed
by an adverse plurality of 156,000. In
1896 McKinley carried the state by a
plurality of 263,479, and two years later
Roosevelt as candidate for governor got
little more than 17,000 plurality. Two
years later, in the presidential election
the Republican plurality bounded up to
143,606, yet in 1902, Odell's plurality as
the Republican candidate for governor
I was only 8,814.
In a state whose poll is liable to such
violent fluctuations, political prophecy
has a peculiarly difficult task. As re
gards the present situation, it is plain
that that state campaign and the presi
dential campaign are in a very different
situation. Dissatisfaction exists as re
gards Republican state administration
which has nothing to do with national
affairs, and it is conceivable that the con
verse might be true. One factof great sig
nificance is that theslol,ooo,ooocanal im
provement plan with which the Repub
lican state administration is identified
was not favored by a large section of
the Republican voters. Forty-three
counties which gave a total plurality of
108,279 for Governor Odell in 1902, a
year later gave a majority of 205,394
against Governor Odell's canal improve
ment plan. The state and national
campaigns are running upon such dif
ferrent lines that it would be quite pos
sible for the state to vote one way in
the state election and the other way in
the presidential election, as in 1888.
At Saratoga, yesterday, after a long
wrangle the Democrats agreed upon
Herrick for Governor and Harrison for
Secretary of State.
WAR NOTES.
At the beginning of the week the sit
uation had not been materially changed.
The RBWlfths were busy strengthening"
the defenses around Mukden, and forti
fying Tie Pass, twenty miles north. The
official reports of the battle at Liao-
Yang put their losses at 23,058 men, in
cluding two generals and 250 other of
ficers. Reinforcements and supplies
were continually coming in from Har
din. KuropatkiD wired to St. Peters
burg for more officers.
The Japs were gradually closing in on
Mukden, their centre was yet at the
Yen Tai coal mines, though divisions
were advancing from the East and also
from the Liao valley, and their idea
seemed to be to surround the place.
The Japs did not finish burying and
burning their dead around Liao Yang
until Thursday. A Chinese army is en
camped on the west bank of the Liao
river, about forty miles west of Muk
den, and the Chinese governor of the
city requested the Russians not to make
a stand at Mukden owing to the danger
of destroying the "sacred tombs."
At St. Petersburg it was thought that
Kuropatkin would retire to the Tie
pass.
The Japs were very greatly disap
pointed with the results at Liao Yang.
Of course they made the Russians move,
as they haye in every battle since that
on the Yalu, but they hoped to capture
or annihilate their army, and this they
were prevented from doing by Kuropat
kin's retreat, and the advantage the
railroad gave him in transporting his
heavy stuns pnd provisions, while they
had to wallow through the mud.
They are now closing in upon Muk
den, and that they are preparing for a
still greater effort is shown by the fact
that the militia of Japan has been call
ed out, and is being hurried to the
front.
In the meantime all the resources of
Russia are being hurried to the front,
and in the next battle Kuropatkin's
army will probably be larger than ever.
The action of the Rnssian govern
ment in receding from its position that
fuel and provisions are contraband of
war per se, and acknowledging that
they are only conditionally contraband,
will relieve the tension between tnat
government aud Great Britain.
The sudden appearance of the "Lena"
at San Francisco, was probably to test
the position of our goveruuien' on
qnestionsof neutrality aud they prompt
ly found ont where we stood The
Lona and her ere v will jduiain at Mare
Island i Navy Yard until the war is
over.
. Conditions at Port Arthur are becom
ing unbearable to the Russians, nnd the
c wnnander is reported to havo receive 1
permission to surrender at discretion.
Monday and Tues-iaj the Japs were
reported as advancing along their entire
line, extending from the Liao river to
the mountains, a distance of twenty
seven miles. Their left wing was re
ported near Simuntun to the north of
the Hur.
The main Rnssian position was at
Tie-ling or Tie pass, throngh which the
Liao river flows, and they were foitify
ing the pass and tbe mountains to their
left or east. Their firing line was along
the Hun river, a branch of the Liao, to
the South of Mukden.
A combined land and sea attack on
Port Arthur was reported, Tuesday, as
being in progress.
The censorship of their dispatches
caused some of the newspaper cor
respondents to establish themselves at
Cheefoo, the Chinese port across the
biy from Port Arthur, and to rely up
on refugees for their stories These
have sometimes been exaggerated, and
their reproduction iu Japanese papers
have done harm there, hence the Jap.
commanders will hereafter allow the
correspondents with their army free
rein, and we will get straighter news.

Agents of the B. & L. E. are prepar

The 78th.
The survivors of the 78th will meet
in U. V. L. hall on sth Ave., Pittsburg.
Saturday. This regiment was organiz
ed at Kittanning in Septeml>er, 1861,
with 10 companies recruited in Arm
strong, Butler, Indiana and Clarion
counties, the field officers being William
Sewell, colonei: Archibald Blakeley,
lien tenant colonel, and A. B. Bonnafon,
major.
The regiment was attached to the brig
ade taken to tbe front by Gen. James
S. Negley, assigned to the Fonrteeth
army corps, and participated in the
campaigns leading from Green River,
Ky., to Atlanta, Ga., the more promin
ent engagements being Stone River,
Chattanooga. Missionary Ridge, Chick -
amanga, Resacca, New Hope Church.
Kenesaw Mountain and Atlanta. In
all these the Seventy-eighth took an
active and distinguished part, many of
its members losing their lives.
The regiment was detained at the
front a mouth after the term of service
had expired, owing to the pressing mil
itary demands, but finally was returned
to Kittanning in November, 18(54, and
mustered out.

FIN ANCIALLY our reciprocity treaty
with Cuba has not been a good invest
ment for us. Tbe balance of trade
against tbe United States, taking into
account only our purchases of Cuban
sugar, has been 127,673,694 in the past
six months. Add to this the loss of rev
enue occasioned by the 20 per cent re
duction allowed the Cubans, which
would be $6,720,000, and we have a to
tal loss of $34,393,694 as a result of re
ciprocity with Cuba. This ought to
teach us not to be too fast about making
reciprocity agreements We are just
as likely to get the worst of tbe deal ;:s
not. Evidently we made a bad bargain
with Cuba, but we wanted to see the
yonng Republic get on its feet, and
hence were more generous than we
would otherwise have been.

REPRESENTS TTvc mE*
ON THE WORLD'S FAIR
What Distinguished Statesmen and
Others Say of the Educational and
Inspiring Exposition at St. Louis.
The public utterances of distinguish
ed men who have visited the world s
fair have but one note, and that of j
emphatic praise. Here are some of
their comments:
Hon. John Hay. secretary of state: "l
have never seen nor heard of anything so
fine."
Hon. Leslie M. Shaw, secretary of the
treasury: "Any father of a bright boy can
afford to send him to the Fair simply to
study any one of at least a thousand ex
hibits."
Hon. Charles 11. Grosvenor of Ohio: "A
visit of ten days by a man of ordinary
aptness and appreciative capacity to the
Fair Is almost equal to a postgraduate
course in a university."
Hon. Benjamin B. Odell. governor of
New York: "St. Louis has been badly mis
represented by accounts which say that
her weather is unbearable. The Fair is
wonderful."
Hon. George C. Pardee, governor of Cali
fornia: "The governor of the Golden State,
who has spent all his life within her bor
ders, finds that he knew only a little
about his state until he came to the Fair
*nd saw all her varied products assembled
together."
Hon. Albert B. Cummins, governor of
Iowa: "The Louisiana Purchase Exposi
tion is on the grandest scale of any expo
aition the world has ever seen."
Hon. Richard Yates, governor of Illi
nois: "The more I see of the Exposition
the more I enjoy It."
Hon. Fennimore Chatterton. governor of
Wyoming: "I wish the Fair the greatest
success. It certainly deserves It."
Hon. Franklin Murphy, governor of New
Jersey: "It Is well worth coming from
New Jersey to see even a small part of
this Fair."
Hon. A. B. White, governor of West
Virginia: "I cannot speak too strongly of
the greatness of this Fair."
Hon. William J. Bryan: "The Exposi
tion is an unparalleled wonder."
Hon. John Sharp Williams, member of
congress from Mississippi: "The most
wonderful thing of Its kind."
Hon. Hoke Smith of Georgia, formerly
secretary of Interior under President
Cleveland: "I am highly pleased with the
Exposition and believe it to be one of the
triumphs of modern civilisation."
Hon. Perry Belmont of New York: "In
magnitude and beauty the Fair Is wonder
ful. It is worth coming a long distance
to see."
Hon. Daniel J. Campau. chairman of the
Michigan delegation to the Democratic
national convention at St. Louis: "It is
positively sinful for parents to fall to
bring their children to see the Fair."
M. Paul Dupuy, editor of Le Petit Parl
sien of Paris, France: "I admire the Ex
position for lis Immensity, its spirit of the
sublime, its general beauty and its com
pleteness."
Prince George of Bavaria: "I have never
seen anything prettier than the St. Louis
World's Fair buildings when outlined at
night with their millions of electric
lights."
Hon. Louis E. McComas of Maryland:
"The greatest Fair in the world."
Hon. John F. Dryden of New Jersey:
"The people have no idea of the greatness
of the Exposition. Every American should
see It."
T. P. Shants, president of the Clover
Leaf route of Chicago: "Trie Fair is a bij
success and will continue to became s
greater success as It progresses."
Pittsburg Exposition.
Victor Herbert and his masterful
orchestra, whose engagement at the
Pittsburgh Exposition has been one
of the greatest musical successes ever
witnessed in Western Pennsylvania,
close their engagement S;uurdav
S g4tlf 'l*llo farewell
will be a blaze of glory, a tribute to
the beloved conductor which will
be memorable in the annals of Pitts
burg's musical history. It will be
an event no one who has ever heard
of Herbort will want to miss.
Following Herbert at the Expo
will come the Boys Symphony Or
chestra, of New York. A wonderful
aggregation of youths, whose leader
himself is but 22 yearsjold and every
man of which is a finished artist on
the instrument he plays. Those
boys create a furore wherever they
are heard and it is expected they
will raise a storm of vociferous
praise when they have been heard
In Pitisburg. Their harpist is said
to be a player of such masterly gifts
that he at times moves hearers to
tears by the mellow sweetness of
the tones he wrings from his instru
ment.
In attractiveness the Exposition
continues to be away and beyond
any previous year. There are so
many more exhibits, so many more
enchanting amusements and such a
quantity of soul-thrilling music
tnat crowds cannot help but swarm
to the great show on Duquesne Way.
There is a restaurant on the grounds
for the benefit of those from out of
town, i The Exposition is always
weather-proof and warm. Admis
