The Borough Election.
The Town Council publishes its notice
of the election to be held by the citizens
of Butler on the question of incorporat
ing as a city.
"For" and ' Against'' tickets will be
provided by the Council, the same to be
used on Nov. 7th—the day of the gen
eral election—and, in Butler, associated
with it. The article that appears in
our columns, this week, favors the city
eharter, and as there are two sides to
the question, it will, probably, be an
gwered.
The matter is too important to be
either affirmed or negatived in igno
rance, and all the light obtainable on
the question is called for.
The War on Graft.
With the exposure of grossly unfair
relations between the managing heads
of the great insurance companies and
bankers and brokers in New York, and
the pleas of guilty by- Chicago bfef
dealers to charges of accepting rebates,
the first tangible steps toward putting
into effective practice President Roose
yelt's demand for a, "square deal for
every man" have been taken.
It ia most difficult at this time to
estimate the eventual public effect of
these revelations, but the result will be
S new epoch in the history of the great
Corporations of the country. The fight
for absolutely fair conditions m trade,
the handling of moneys and the like is
not new. The private rebate question
has been before the country for years.
The immediate effect will, however, be
the complete upsetting of the plans of
the great financial interests for oppos
ing the President's plan for rate regula
tion. Elaborate schemes to this, end
have been under way, but these will
doubtless be abandoned in view of the
damning nature of the evidence recent
iy produced. The government is bound,
after accepting the pleas of the Chicago
beef barons, to proceed against the rail
roads associated with them in rebates.
Once proof is produced that these
practices are common, public sentiment
will enforce the adoption of legislation
to prevent them.
President Roosevelt is entitled to con
gratulation for his determination in this
fight against secret dealings, and any
effort to abort his plans will fail in view
Of the enormous sentiment created by
the exposure.
The tide of battle against graft, not
only in the political but the insurance,
railroad and money world, is rising and
cannot be stayed by the - artifices of
legislative campaigners.
At the same time the signal success
that has accrued to the President's ef
forts is only another evidence of the
wisdom of nominating this manly man
for another term in office. It is slow
procedure uprooting corruption, and a
man tried at the work is needed and
•hould be retained.—Leader.
POLITICAL.
The first political demonstration in
Butler, this year, waß that of the Demo
crats, whose candidate for State Treas
urer, Wm. H. Berry of Chester was in
town last evening. He made a favor
able impression here. His tributes to
the founders of the Republican party,
to Lincoln and to Roosevelt were beau
tiful; and his general talk on graft in
politics and state affairs could be en
dorsed by any man of any party. He
was elected Mayor of Chester by the
Republicans of that city, over the
"ring" candidate.
The Republican State campaign of
Ohio was opened at Bellefontaine, last
Saturday, by Vice-President Fairbanks,
Governor Herrick and Senator Foraker
and was attended by 15,000 people.
Governor Herrick's speech, in which he
defended his administration and chal
lenged his opponents to raise any issue,
took the audience by storm. Vice-
President Fairbanks and Senator For
aker dwelt on national issues, showing
the importance of a Republican victory
in Ohio this year and its bearing on the
national administration.
Secretary McAfee will not make up
the form of the official ballot until after
October 3, when the time for filing
nomination papers expires
Judicial Contests.
Thirteen judges are to be elected in
this state, Nov. 7th, next, and some of
the contests are very interesting.
Probably the hottest judicial contest
in the state is that in Beaver county,
between J. Rankin Martin, Republican,
and Richard S. Holt, Fusion. Martin
defeated Holt for the regular Republi
can nomination and Holt was afterwards
nominated by the Democrats, Prohibi
tionists, Citizens and Lincoln party.
Venango county has an exciting con
test on hands between Judge Criswell,
tor re-election, and Robert F. Glenn,
who is endorsed by the Democrats and
Prohibitionists.
Judge John W. Reed, who was nomi
nated by the Republicans after an ex
citing contest and Stewart Whitehill,
Democrat, are rival candidates in Jef
ferson county.
There Is a three-cornered fight in
Washington county between James F.
Taylor who was nominated by the Re
publicans; Josiah D.Patterson, Demo
crat, and Boyd Crumrine, Citizens.
Patterson has persistently refused to
withdraw in Crnmrine's interest in
older to make fusion complete between
Democrats and Citizens of the county.
Neither Russia nor Japan has ratified
the Peace of Portsmouth, and yet sever
al Russian generals have al
ready left Manchuria for Russia. Quiet
prevails in Baku and the oil district,
but the streets were being patrolled.
Lumber is scarce there, and is being or
dered from the Volga district for the
rebuilding of the burned derricks. The
government is sending grain into the
famine districts but is hindered by a
Shortage of cars. The Armenians and
Tartars are reported to have signed a
fMQV Agreement.
End or the Murder Case. !
What an interest is taken in a case
involving human life' Ten minutes
after the Court House bell began ring
ing last Sunday afternoon the Court
room was crowded; a few minutes more,
and the prisoner was in Court, and the
jurymen in their places.
As each juror's name was called he
answered and arose; the prisoner also
stood, and they were again invited to
look at each other
To the' how say you*' question the
foreman answered "Guilty of murder in
the second degree, " and each member
of the jury repeated it as his name was
called.
Their verdict was so recorded, and
they were discharged, and Johd B. Mc-
Laughlin was taken back to jail, con
victed of being guilty of murder in the
second degree, the extreme penalty for
which is solitary confinement at hard
labor for a period of twenty years, sub
ject to the rebate system of all peni
tentiaries tor good conduct.
The jury men pledged themselves to
each other not to tell how they stood on
first ballot, but is known that there
were some first degree men on it, and
also some manslaughter men. The jury
is said to have stood six for first degree,
three for second, and three for man
slaughter, and the verdict of second de
gree was agreed upon Sunday morning.
The evidence in the case was all in
by Friday afternoon; Saturday was de
voted to speech making and the Court's
charge, and the case went to the jury
at 5:30 that evening, and as they came
in Sunday afternoon at 2:30, they were
"out" in all twenty-one hours. It was
the most exciting case tried in this
county since the Mills case in 1892, and
will cost the county about a thousand
dollars.
Two of the jurymen were indisposed
during their five-days confinement, but
none seriously ill.
The jury was composed of:
Harry Cooper, contractor, of Evans
City.
J. M. Wick, Third ward, Butler.
George B. Slentz, car worker, Butler.
Richard Black, a farmer, of Slippery
Rock township.
Daniel L. Dunbar, farmer, of Forward
township.
W. P. Martin, farmer, Venango twp.
W. A. Smith, farmer, of Donegal
township.
J. B. Black, ex-postmaster, of Butler.
J. S. Jack, newsdealer, of Butler.
John F, Lowry, retired, of Butler.
Barney Kemper, health officer, Butler.
J. M. Porter, carpenter, of Butler.
Since the trial there has been con
siderable discussion as to whether, had
the jary disagreed, McLaughlin could
have again been placed on trial, and the
answer is, 'Yes, but not for first degree
murder', as the state constitution forbids
a man's life being placed in jeopardy a
second time for the same offense; and if
a new trial is asked for and granted the
degree, if found guilty, cannot be
above second.
In this state a man's life is held to be
! placed in jeopardy when he is brought
to trial, but in some other states it is
not so held until the verdict is given.
In New York lately, the notorious
"Nan" Patterson was tried three times
for first degree murder, and as the jury
disagreed each time, the District At
torney gave up the job, and the Court
let her go.
1 This trial for murder is the sixth since
that of James Mills in 1892, and he.also,
was found guilty of murder in the sec
ond degree, after his sensational escape
from jail and recapture.
Tuesday afternoon a written motion
for a new trial was presented to Court,
asking 30 days for the preparation of
reasons.
AT the general election in Cuba, last
week, President Palma's party, the
Moderates gained a complete victory
over the Liberals. The election passed
off quietly in Havana, but in Cienf uegos
the Congressman and Chief of Police
were killed in a riot, and a plot to blow
up the government bnilding was dis
covered.
THE Czar of Russia lately ordered
nine officers of a Warsaw regiment to
be shot within 24 hours for sending him
a petition that he did not like. The
officers were bound to stakes, and the
men of the regiment—company after
company—refused to shoot; but they
did shoot and kill a lot of Cossacks
brought up to do the job.
AT Chicago, last Thursday, four beef
packers plead guilty to the indictments
against them, charging them with con
spiracy to accept rebates, and paid fines
aggregating |25,000, and there was con
sternation among the other packers who
are under indictment for conspiracy in
restraint of trade, and among railroad
officials—among the packers because
they foresaw the possibility of these
men turning state's evidence against
them in the conspiracy trial that is to
come; and among the railroad men be
cause of the admission of the packers
that they had accepted rebates from
several companies, opening up possibili
ties of trouble for them for violating a
court injunction which prohibits them
from giving rebates.
CONGRESSMAN John Dalzell dis
charged a warning gun of the coming
battle on the tariff question in a state
ment issued last Thursday night. He
is a "stand patter" without any quali
fications and declares himself absolute
ly opposed to revision of the tariff or
reciprocity. With him in the stand pat
attitude is Congressman James Francis
Burke, while Congressman W. H. Gra
ham expresses himself equally as frank
ly as these two, but in favor of revision.
Congressman E. F. Acheson believes
some changes might be advantageous
and Congressman G. F. Huff of Greens
burg is non-committal on the question
of reciprocity. Mr. Dalzell says revis
ion is not only unnecessary at this time,
but immediately preceding a Congres
sional election it would array every dis
contented man and interest against the
party. The country has adapted itself
to the present tariff, he says, even with
its objectionable features After a trip
clear to the Pacific Coast Mr. Dalzell
says he has found "no substantial de
mand for revision outside of the Demo
cratic and Mugwump press.''
Liitliorun Reunion.
On Thursday, Sept. 21, the Lutherans
and their friends of North Washington,
West Sunbury, Annandale, Zion,
Springdale and Rider held their annual
picnic and reunion at Stoner's Grove,
near Nortn Washington. There were
abont 500 people present. The day was
ideal for an outing. Excellent music
was furnished by a union choir and the
Sunbury band. Short addresses were
delivered by Revs McNees of N. Wash
ing, C. E. Frontz of Chicora and J. C.
Nicholas of Butler. The ladies of the
congregations prepared an excellent din
ner which was enjoyed by the large
' crowd. The committee in charge of
program was Revs. I. Z. Fonstermacher
and G. W. Scheese, pastors of the
cbuobM.
FOR AND AGAIKST.
A City Charter—Bolllo of the
Reasons Why We Slioul<l
Adopt a Better Form or
Coveriimeiit.
1 Communicated. 1
A brief comparison between what our ,
town was thirty or forty years ago and i
what it is today may help ns to con- j
sider the duties and responsibilities
which have been forced on its citizens
nnder the changed conditions m which
we find it. and the propriety of adopting
a stronger, more systematic and effica
cious form of government.
Less than forty years ago Butler was
a town of less than two thousand in- '
habitant?, shut in from the outside I
world, and accessible only by country !
roads: today it has a population approx
imating eighteen thousand inhabitants
connected with the ontside world by
telegraph and telephone lines and rail
roads leading to almost every point on
the compass, affording means of com
munication and traffic with the com
mercial world. Less than forty years
ago the industries and manufacturing
interests of our town were confined to
two of the old fashioned burr flouring
mills, dependent on the grain drawn by
farmers from the surrounding country,
a planing mill and pome other
small manufacturing industries; today
our town boats of a large Plate Glass
plant, Steel Car Works, Lead Works.
Bottle Works, Silk Mill, extensive ma
chine shops for the manufacture of
boilers, engines, and oil-well supplies
and machinery, and the modern auto
mobile. two large Roller Process flour
ing mills engaged in the manufacture
of flour from n taiij shipped in from
other states and shipping their product
out to the markets of the world: and
many other industries in which our
citizens are engaged for wages or prof
it. Less than forty years ago the few
merchants of our town were engaged in
the various lines of business on a small
scale, and their business was for the
most part confined to the exchange of
goods for farm products, which were
disposed of by carting them over the
wagon road to the Pittsburg markets;
much of the business was done on run
ning account, squared and settled at
long periods of time after the manner of
business in early days, money was a
scarce factor and trade slow: today cur
town boasts of its number of large store
rooms filled with a high class of goods,
equal in size and quality of their stocks
to those found in some of the much
larger towns and cities, with their brisk
clerks exchanging goods for money.
Less than forty years ago the business
interests of onr town were financed by
one bank, with but few transactions in
the commercial world; today our town
boasts of four banks and a trust com
pany filled with millions of the accum
ulated wealth of our citizens, whose
business transactions have risen to a
magnitude of importance, and whose
pulsations are in touch with the finan
cial world. Less than forty years ago
our town was confined to but a small
square of territory surrounding the
Court House; today it is spread over a
wide scope of territory with an increas
ing demand for more room.
Less than twenty years ago our town
was without paved streets or sewers,
and our taxes were annually cast in the
mud holes on the streets as a propitia
tion to the musical bull frog that claim
ed its place of quiet resort, today many
of our principal streets are paved and
sewered, our streets have been extended,
many tine homes and commodious busi
ness blocks grace our streets, electric
lights and street cars have been install
ed, and we see evidences on every hand
of the progressive spirit of our citizens.
Our population has increased, our town
has changed and new conditions and in
creased demands have arisen and an
onerous burden of public duty has been
cast on our borough officials, that will,
sooner or later, have to be met by some
more systematic and more efficacious
machinery of government. Our town
has outgrown the loose and weak ma
chinery afforded by borough laws
We impose executive duties on the
members of our Council which require
them to spend half, if not more, of their
time on the public streets in the inaugu
ration and construction of public im
provements. They are unskilled in this
line of business. They or at least most
of them try to do their duty, but for
want of knowledge and experience the
results of many of their efforts have
proved unsatisfactory, and they are
publicly condemned for not doing in a
E roper manner what they did not know
ow to do.
They experiment, temporize and do
the work over again. They fail in
many cases to secure permanent and
lasting results in the expenditure of the
public funds. They have no system,
no head; the council is replenished every
year with new recruits to try their
hand in the expenditure of the public
funds according to their notions. Many
men of limited means think it no sacri
fice to to go on the council and spend
much of their time in looking after
public interests, without compensation.
How they can afford to do it if they
have wives and children to provide for.
God only knows. Business men say
they can't afford to leave their business
to serve the public. Then a cloud of
public suspicion gathers aronnd the
men who think they can afford to do it,
and the cry of corruption and graft, and
complaints of high taxes and the wan
ton and injudicious expenditure of the
public moneys, is heard on the streets
of Butler and wise men shake their
heads: members of the town council are
criticized, abused and even roundly ex
coriated, whatever that means, by an
indignant public; language of bitter
denunciation and vituperation is indis
criminately hurled at these pitiable ob
jects of public hatred, in volume and
character sufficiently peremptory and
mandatory to send them all to perdition,
until the range of all the bad language
in Webster's Unabridged Dictionary, is
exhausted. Yet, whilst we have pro
gressed in all other respects we go on
year after year and place men 111 these
positions year after year under our
loose and creaky old borough govern
ment, and require and expect them to
spend much of their time looking after
our public interests; to live on nothing
and be honest and faithful and withal
to accomplish much good work, aud tf
the results fail to meet cur expectations
we again resort to the bad words in
Webster's Dictionary This sort of
public worship is opposed to good
morals and extremely wicked.
Our expectations of good results from
these requirements and conditions are
more unreasonable on our nart than
were the requirements of the Egyp
tians when tney commanded the poor
Isrealitish people to make bricks with
out straw If the pubic funds have not
been properly expended or have, in any
manner, been wasted in the construc
tion of experimental and temporary im
provements; if our taxe3 are high, and
higher than they ought to be; if our
municipal affairs are run too loosely and
satisfactory results are not secured, to
what are these things chargeable, but
the loose and weak system of borough
government under which our affairs
are managed and controlled 1 It may
be conceded that taxes are higher in the
borough of liutler than they are in the
East End of the City of Pittsburg, but
no amount of bud words, kicking aud
complaining will help it. The popula
tion, the business interests of our town,
have outgrown control and manage
ment under the machinery provided by
borough laws designed for small towns.
These things need a remedy; a stronger
form of government; and a more sys
tematic expenditure of public funds.
These ends can be accomplished by a
city charter.
The act of 18«9 fur the government
and legulation of citieH of the Third
Class, was designed to meet the condi
tion of things found to exist in our
borough today. This act enables
boroughs that have outgrown borough
machinery to tnke on a stronger form
of government.
The change is easily uiade and the ex
pense is nominal. Under its provisions
the councils will lie relieved of their
duties as executive officers, and the du
ties now so unreasonably imposed on
them will he performed by an executive
heud. a competent person at such fair
compensation as they may determine,
to superintend arid construct public im
provements, and the expenditure of the
public funds reduced to a system. It is
believed by those couversant with the
subject that there is more money wast
ed for the lack of system than would
pay a competent man to look after our
public improvements.
System can never be attained under
our borough laws, aud system is the
mother of economy.
If a majority of oar citizens vote ia
avor of a city government the election
)fficers are required to make a return of j
:he fact to the Clerk of the Courts of
Quarter Sessions and to forward a do- ■
plicate thereof to the Secretary of the
Commonwealth, when it is made the
Inty of the Governor to issue a charter
incorporating the borough under the
name and style, "City of Butler." The
borough will then put on its new clothes
»nd elect a mayor: city treasurer, who
will have charge of the collection of
taxes: a comptroller to look after the ;
financial interests of the city and be the
financial watch dog of the treasury and
a check upon the improper expenditure j
of public funds: three common council- ,
men and one select councilman from ;
each ward. All officials are required to '
take and subscribe to the oath of office
prescribed bv the constitution: and the
executive officers are each required to
give bond in such sura as the councils
may determine for the faithful dis- j
charge of their duties. The act does j
not prescribe the amount of salary to
be received by any official. That is left I
to the councils to determine
The mayor is the chief magistrate of
the city and it is made his duty to see ,
that the laws and ordinances are enforc- ;
ed It inay be safely said that the ordi- :
nary revenues of a city government will
equal, if not more than suffieo to pay
an}' reasonable salaries the councils may
allow executive officers for their ser
vices. Thue we will have more strength,
stability, system and efficiency, and by
a wise and conservative management, a
more ejonomi<- and businesslike admin
istration of public affairs than we now
have. A CITIZEN.
Bombs in China.
By the explosion of a bomb in a car
at the railroad station in Pekin. last
Sunday, four prominent C'hmamen were
killed, and Wn Ting Fane and twenty
others injured. The man who explod
ed the bomb was blown to pieces.
Last July the government of China
appointed four missions to study foreign
political methods, and the first mission
was on this car and was about leaving
the capital when the explosion oc
enred.
The Chinese minister at Washington
explains it by saying that "There are
two parties in China, the new reform
party, which is desirous of having the
people and government profit by the
adoption of whatever is for the good in
Occidental civilization, and the party
that you call anarchists in this county.
The late action in regard to the sending
abroad of missions has especially anger
ed them."
Cowlmncles.
(One of our subscribers, now enjoying
a "buncle" for the first time in his
life, asks us to print this.)
A cowbunkle is a terrible reality, and
is mostly built on the caboose of your
neck. They are like dog tax —borne by
a few. The general contour of a cow
buncle looks like Ida M. Tarbucket's
idea of John D. Rockefeller. A cow
buncle in ita youth is mild and pensive
and childlike in its way; an adult bnncle
generally weighes two pounds this time
of the year on any grocer's scales. Su
gar is always shot in canning time.
They came forth between the solar
plexus and big meetings in the fall, have
a hand-painted forebay and look like the
early tomatoes we see in the market.
No one ever eloped with a cowbuncle
and lived to come back and lie about it.
they always leave their signature on
your neck of in the cemetery. A rich
marooned liver shaped curicle once took
up his or her abode over my Lilly
Langtree vertebra and stuck closer than
a farmer does to the price on this fall's
peach crop. Some people make pets of
rattle snakes and hay widows and af
fectionately fondle a buz saw, even
while it arighest iteself without its win
ter pants on. But the same people ig
nore and repudiate the warm open
countenanced American lump that fills
us with cholera Columbus pain and flax
seed poultices and cause the wicked to
flee when no man pnrsueth, yea, and to
shout alowd. The chances are that
this great pertuberence would become
more popular as a fall stile of fashion if
a man could take his old cowbuncle off
and hang it on the-harness peg in the
old log stable as he could, his ancient
lielidome. Then there would be less
trembling among the saloon-voting
church members, and the amens less
hypocritical. Ah, once while holding
close communion behind closed doors
with a favorite buricle I called a gar or
hot air doctor to diagnosis the case, he
said it.looked like the San Jose Scale
and that I had better keep different
company; I told him he was a fool, and
he replied I was probably a mind read
er. Why, oh why, Mr. Editor, have
scientific great men treated with con
tempt and contumely, with most ingra
cioui ingratitude the placid and con
genial buncle? It is indeed singular
that such men as Carrie Nation, Bill
Nye and Mark Twain should overlook
this greatest of huge proponderocity of
immense magnitude and everlasting
shoals Selah. W,
