"Didn't I Told You."
We arc a "safe anil sane" people.
We know a good thing when we
have It, ancl we hold 011 to it—
hence the election of
ROOSEVEX.T & FAIRBANKS,
Who carried every Northern state and
who will have the phenomenal majori
ty of 174 in the Electoral College—32s
to the 151 of the ' Solid South." Even
Maryland is Republican this year, and
so is Nebraska (Bryan's state). In New
York state the polls close at 4 d ; ui.,and
as they vote with machines which total
as they'go, the resnlt was known by 7 p.
m., and all over the country shortly
after. -Greater New York", the city,
gave Parker but 40.000 majority, where
as he was expecting at least 140,000, but
the state gave Roosevelt about 235,000
which leaves Roosevelt's majority about
175,000 in the state. That vote ended
all the Democratic hopes of National
« success, and pulled Higgins through for
Governor. « ■>« nnn
West Virginia came in with 30, 000,
Indiana with 75,000. Wisconsin with
CO,OOO, Ohio, 200,000; Pennsylvania, 325,-
000, etc., and it was soon seen that the
election was entirely one sided—an ava
lanche or landslide, or whatever you
choose to call it.
Congress.
The next Congress will consist of
about 237 Republicans to 149 Democrats.
This state electa 31 Republicans and 1
Democrat; and in most of the states
where U. 8. Senators are to be elected
for terms beginning March 5, 1905, tbe
Republicans have elected a majority of
the legislators. Butler county gave Huff
3,000 plurality and Westmoreland about
5,000, making his majority in the die
trict about B.OCO. Butler county gives
McNees for state senate 3,000 and Arm
strong county 2,000, making his major
ity in the district about 5,000.
The Republicans of this state elect 175
of the 204- members of the Assembly,
and 25 out of 26 new state senators, and
their majority on the National ticket
may reach 500 000.
The County.
■file entire Republican county ticket
is elected by pluralities ranging from
2500 to 3000.
The Republican majority in the coun
ty on the National ticket is about 3300;
the unofficial figures are, Roosevelt,
6300; Parker, 3000.
For Clerk of Courts, L E. Cbristley
had 1344 votes in the town and 4312 in
tbe county, (with 8 to hear
from),, or 5656 in all; Eppinger had 505
in the town and 2034 in the county, or
2589 in all; leaving Christley a majority
of 8117.
For District Attorney, Walker had
1496 in town and 4225 in the county,
making 5721 in all; and Henninger had
491 in town and 2643 in the <y)unty,
making 3184 in all, and leaving Walker
• majority of 2587, but the other dis
tricts are said to bring it up to 2800.
The majorities of McNees, Hays and
Hockenberry will range from 2500 to
3000.
Zelienople went Republican this year
for the first time in its history, by ll
votes.
Slippery rock boro voted down the
water works proposition by a vote of
86 to 72.
Neighboring Counties.
Allegheny county gave tbe Republi
can National ticket the unprecedented
majority of 60,000, and elected the en
tire Republican County ticket for tbe
first time in twenty years. The city
majority is about 25,000.
Armstrong county elected its entire
Republican ticket Dy about 2000.
Lawrence county gave Roosevelt
about 3300 and elected its entire Re
publican ticket excepting W. D. Wal
lace for Judge, who is defeated by W.
E. Porter by about 1500 votes.
Mercer county gave Roosevelt about
2500 and elected the entire Republican
ticket. William's majority over Pettit
for Judge is estimated at 600.
Clarion county elected one Republi
can to the Legislature this year—some
thing unprecedented—and one Demo
crat, and is very close on the National
ticket.
Venango county gave Roosevelt about
2500 and elected McWhinny (Rep.) for
Sheriff over Runninger (Dem. and Pro.) '
by about U)00. I
Beaver county gave Roosevelt about
8000 and elected the entire Republican
ticket.
Indiana county gave Roosevelt about
4000 and elected Telford (Rep.) Judge
over Tomb (Dem,) and White (Ind.) by 1
large pluralities. '
Notes. !
The new form of ballot cost the local
candidates some votes. People have
become so accustomed to marking at
the top for a straight ticket, that tbey ''
made mistakes.
i
Out of a total registration in tie |
county of about 15000, but 9000 votes ,
were polled, or about a three-fifths j
vote ,
As usual both returns of some pre- '
% cincts were returned sealed—hence the
ncomplete table. 1
The Prohib. vote in this county is .
about 500. « I
Roosevelt's plurality in this state runy 1
each 500,000, and in the country 1,500,- ;
00— the greatest ever given a candidate
for the Presidency. .
In Wisconsin La Follefte won out for
Governor by a majority of 40,000," and
' Folk is elected Governor of Missouri.
POLITICAL.
In his speech at Old City Hall, Pitta ,
burg, last Saturday night, Senator Knox
showed that the Republican party and
President Roosevelt did more to stop re
bates and discrimination by the rail
roads, in three years, than the Demo
cratic party ever did during its whole
existence; and asserted that calling
Roosevelt a friend of tbe trust* was
equal to calling Lincoln a friend of
slavery.
Bryan's bureau of publicity and pro
moticn will again take charge of the
Democratic party.
At the election in Canada, last Thurs
day, Sir Wilfrid Laurier and his party
(the Liberal) who now control the
government were endorsed by an in
creased majority. The principal issne .
before the people was government sup
port for tbe building of tbe transconti
nental line by the Qrand Trnnk Rail
road, The Conservatives, beaded by
Robert L. Borden, of Halifax," opposed
this railroad program on the ground
that daring the winter months, when

the St Lawrence is closed to naviga
tion, the Atlantic port for freight
would be Portland. Thus the rallying
cry of the Conservative papers has beau
"Yote for St. John and not for Port
land," for they urged that the Maine
city would profit by the construction of
the proposed road at the expense of the
Canadian cities.
Incidentally, the election demon
strates that tbo Canadians are not very
easier to fall in with tbe imperialistic
program of Mr. Joseph Chamberlain
and that their inclination is to cultivate
closer relations with the United States.
That is a tendency which deserves to be
encouraged.
WAR NOTES.
It is now nearly a month since the
ten days' battle along the Shakhe river,
in Manchuria, was ended, and since
that time tbe two armies have lain in
lines, facing each other, and extending
across the country, a few miles north of
the fcrmer battlefield. Both armiis
have been reinforced until they num
ber probably 300,000 each, and both
have so strongly entrenched themselves
as to make a frontal attack almost an
impossibility.
The next battle must be begun by a
flanking movement, but neither com
mander seems anxious to begin and the
two armies lay there, in their trenches,
with all the discomforts of winter
weather, presenting the strangest spec
tacle eyer seen in modern warfare.
The JafS seem to be aatisfced with
tbe situation. Tbey are preventing Ku
ropatkin from relieving Port Arthur,
(the assault upon which, last week, was
another costly failure), and they have
little fear of their lines of communica
tion and supplies being interfered with,
as Admiral Tofeo has been uniformly
successful. On the other band, the
Russians must be waiting for the Bal
tic fleet to arrive, and to be expecting
great results from it, as it will not be
long before their line of communka
tion and supplies is snowed under, and
tbe harbor of Vladivostock frozen shut
The advantage of delay seems to be
with tbe Japs; and, besides this, tbey
are conducting tbe war much more
economically than are the Russians, who '
lately borrowed another $150,000,000 in j
France
The commission to decide upon the
facts of the North Sea affair is to con
sist of one English, one American, one
French and one Russian Admiral, who
are to choose a fifth and sit in Paris,
Beginning in a few days The Russian
officers concerned in the affair, have
been detained in Europe, but the fleet
seems to have continued its journey
eastward. It is a formidable fleetr-su
perior to that of the Japs in numbers
and weight of metal and gnus, but ap
parently defective in service and prac
tice. The latest report regarding it is
that it has been ordered to the eaot via
Cape Horn, which, if true, may canse
its appearance along our western coast.
Port Arthur is yet a problem. The
Japs have bombarded it until there is
little left but the bomb-proofs and the
soldiers who hide in them, but when
the Jape afsanlt any one point in the
fortifications these are always on haad
to repel them. The Japs, however, are
determined to take the place, and are
gradually closing in upon it. Its fall is
a mere matter of time, and as soon as
it does fall, the drift of the whole world
wilt be towaids peace.
The; Directors' Meeting.
| Last Friday was a field day for the
candidates for County Superintendent—
Messrs. Painter, McQuistion. Pi tifiulil
aud Kelly—and they made all the hay
possible while the two hundred school
directors of tbe couuty were here.
I On account of both court rooms being
iin nee, tbe diiectrrs met in Y. M. C. A.
hall and were called to order by W. O.
Russell, President of the Association,

tendent Painter called the roll, and
those present proceeded to organize by
electing Rev. W. J. Grimes, of Conno
qnenessing, President; R. F. McMeek
in, of Chicora, secretary; Dr. V. Thom
as, treasurer, and W. P. Day and W.
H. Grabe, vice-presidents.
Superintendent Coughlin, of Wilkeß-
TBEOE-0B.I! ROOSEVELT.
Barre, talked about laws that should
recieve the special attention of directory.
R. S. Irwin, Frank Clark and W. B.
Ferguson discussed "The Director and
His Duties"; Rev. Leith, ' Ethical In
struction"; J. O. Wolfe, ''The selection,
retention and pay of teachers"; Dr.
Baker, "What Our Schools should be";
J. W. Hutchison, "The Compulsory
School Law; I. P. Murtland.'the "Free
' Text Book"; H. I. Painter, "Special ees
j sions of Bchool directors and association
; of ideas."
During the day music was furnished
j by the Grohmann orchestra, and the
! sessions were opened with prayer by
! Rev. Miller.
I The Wooing of Wulter Lowrie.
i Nearly one hundred years ago Rev.
| M'Pherrin lived at Middletown, and
I was the pastor of Concord church aud
! had a very handsome daughter.
I Walter Lowrie was a tall slender
1 youth, not yet twenty years of age, liv
j ing with his parents near Craw fords
i Corners. Tbey attended the Scrub
; Presbyterian church, and perhaps
hetrd Rev. M'Pherrin preach there
: sometimes, aud peril Hps young Lowrie
and Mihh M'Pherrin met there. No
| matter how it was they became ac
, quainted and fell in love with one ail
i other. One day Lowrie mouuted hi*
horse and rode, following the blazed
| trees and cow paths through the fifteen
: or twenty miles of wilderness between
• the two places, till he on me to the
: M'Pherrin homestead. Hh proceeded
; immediately to business and astied liev.
M'Pherrin for the hand of bis daughter

. is said by tradition that tbo younu nun
I was told he bad better liuish growing
; aud obtam some visable meant "f sup
: porting a wife before he become go pre

men became Angry and lost their srlf
i control There were blows and it is
! said Kev. M'Pherrin was knocked down
I by his intended son-in-law, aud that
I blood flowed from his none.
This wi.s a tail state of ajliirs aud (
Lowrie. made bustetoget away. Eithor j
j the same day or i-bortly after IK- and |
: Miss M'Pherrin met near her home by j
i arrangement. She mounted his hors-j j
I behind him and a la John Alden and j
Priscilla, they rode to Butler, an fast as I

any trouble that might be made by the
young lady's parents. Tien they were
in a threat predicament for at any mo
! ment they expected to see her father
come tearing into town and cut their
bapjiiuefs short. In their distress they
called ou John Negley, Sr., and al
though he bad never seen Lowrie before
innd did not know him from Adam, lif
ter heajiue their story, he went on the
bond and Squire Campl>ell united them
I as husband and wife. Th<y were afraid
I to go home, and Negley secured Lowrie
I a position a* clerk for the Couuty Com
j missioners, which he filled two or three
I venrs and wan then elected County
Commissioner himself. A few years
later he was seut to the Slate Assembly,
then to the State Senate, and from
there was elected United States Senator.
After his term expired as Senator he
j was made Clerk of the Senate, which
position he resigned several years later
to become Secretary of the Board of
Foreign Missions of the Presbvterian
church at a salary of ten thousand dol
lars a year. He filled this position with
great satisfaction until his death, and
was succeeded in it by his son, (John
M'Pherrin) who is still living a very old
man, in New York City Another son

Why You Nlioulil visit the
World's Fair.
The principal reason why a visit
xliould be made to this greatest of Ex
positiocs is on account of its education
al value. A visit to the World's Fair is
in itself a trip around the world, for
fifty cents, the price of admission The
president of one of our greatest univers
ities has said, "To the bright student
the Exposition is worth a thousand col
lege lectures." The opportonity of a
life time is afforded in which to acquire,
by a few day's sojourn at the Fair, an
education which could not otherwise be
received. The World's Fair Grounds
cover over 1200 acres, being more than
twice as large as those of the World's
Columbian Exposition at Chicago
