POLITICAL,. \
The result of the city election in 1
Philadelphia will have more effect in '
changing the political leadership in
this Btate than will the election or de
feat of Plummer for State Treasurer.
One Philadelphia correspondent uses |
strong language about it and puts it
this way—"Upon the issue of the elec- 1
tlon for a few coLuty offices in Philadel
phia next month will depend the ques
tion whether or not Pennsylvania shall
continue to be dominated by as smooth
a crew of political pirates as ever scut
tled a political ship or cut a political
throat
They are fighting a desperate battle
in this good old city of Brotherly Love.
It is pre-eminently the people against
the gang which has not only relentless
ly ruled this city with a rod as powerful
In its graft proclivities in this modern
Babylon as was Aaron's water producer
in the desert; bnt the same gang whose
political ramifications throughout the
State are such that for years it has
«. been able to dictate every act passed by
the Legislature and every penny ap
propriated for public work and charity,
bnt, if all the indications count for any
thing- the gang will go down "
The Philadelphia Councilmanic inves
tigation of the administration of Mayor
Wearer began Tnesday with a series of
incidents that may result in producing
all the evidence it desires, but not of
the character calculated to make good
working campaign material for the ma
chine.
It denied the Mayor and his directors
admission to the meeting, and when it
attempted to bring ont damaging evi
• dence from Superintendent of Police
|iSp Taylor foand he was not only willing,
but anxious to go on record as a perfect
witness He told them that former
Director of Public Safety Smyth had
given orders that the police must not
interfere with repeaters at election time
when the examining member en
deavored to cut off this form of testi
mony by asking how the homes of the
people were protected he promptly re
plied that it was done by men who had
served time in the penitentiary and
whoae pictures removed from
the Rogues' Gallery by this same
r former Director Smyth.
Official End of the War.
I At Washington, last Saturday, the
£ personal representatives of the Emperor
L of Russia and the emperor of Japan
| signed their respective copies of the
| peace treaty, thus officially ending the
I Baron Rosen, the Russian ambas
f gador, called at the state department
| Saturday morning and told Secretary
| Root information had reached him that
I the emperor of Russft had early in the
I day affixed his signature to a copy of
I the treaty. The Russian foreign office
I advised the French government of the
I act of signature, and that government
I In turn advised the Japanese govern-
II ■■■ ment.
I A few minutes after noon Minister
1 Takahira appeared at the state depart-
I ment with a message stating that the
I emperor of Japan had signed the treaty
I St Tokyo. A cablegram was immedi-
K ately dispatched to Spencer Eddy,
I charge of the American embassy at St.
| Petersburg, who was instructed to in-
K form the Russian foreign office that the
| emperor of Japan bad performed bis
IH - part, and so both copies of the treaty
B having been duly signed and each of
■ the great nations lately engaged in
■ hostilities, having been officially in
■ formed of the fact, the Russo-Japanese
■ war which began February 8, 1904, with
■ the attack by Togo's fleet upon the Rus-
K , sian ships at Port Arthur, terminated
I * officially October 14, 1905.
I - STRIKES and red flags are again the
■ order of the day in St. Petersburg; and
■ in Armenia the fighting continues.
■, THE people of Tokyo gave the Ad
s' miral of the British fleet and his party,
| a ronsing reception, last Thursday.
H CHARLES M. SCHWAB, having secured
■ large mining interests in Nevada, will
B acquire a residence there with a view to
mt succeeding Senator Newlands in the
I t United States Senate. It is generally
■ conceded that Mr. Schwab has the qual
■| ifications to represent Nevada in the
, upper branch of CongTess, his wealth
I being estimated at something like fifty
■ millions.
B JUDGE POKTEI;, of Lawrence county,
■ Pa., says he will not appoint trust com
■ panies as guardians of minor children.
Hp . lie believes u guardianship should be of
B higher relationship than the mure
B handling of finances.
B SINCE the partial alliance between
B England and France has become public,
B the German press has been attacking
B the policy of the English government,
B so bitterly that Germany is suspected
B of intending to interfere in and take
B | advantage of the Austro-Hungary crisis
B TUE great bronze doors desigued for
B the main entrance to the new Pennsyl-
B vania State Capitol at Harrisburg were
H hnng last Saturday in what iB officially
Hp known as the "People's Portal." These
H doors are similar in design to those at
■ the entrances to the north and south
H wings, except that they are more elab
■ orate and about twice the size of the
Others. They cost $410,000, and are re
■ • garded as among the finest pieces of
■ bronze work in this county.
■ IT does really look as though the old
laws govering our national domain
should all be repealed and new ones en
■ acted with a yiew to excluding every -
■ body bat acntal home-seekers. Millions
B and millions of acres have, under the
present system, gotten into the hands
of syndicates and speculators. The
public lands should be reserved for
those who will utilize them for agri
cultural purposes and thns add to the
K i National prosperity by increasing the
grain .crop. Fanners constitute the
backbone of national character and he 1
K who desires an opportunity to cultivate
■ the soil should have preference over the
had shark.—Spirit.
The National Domain.
(.1 alius Chambers in Pg. Dispatch.)
Indications are that the worst of the
lind frauds in Oregon has not been told.
It appears to have reached to the State
a? well as the Government lands. Gov
ernor Chamberlain is ont with a letter
in which he charges D. J. Keliher of
Salem with acquiring' 100,000 acres of
State lands by fraud, similar in general
terms to that employed by Senator
Mitchell and his coparceners. The
stealing of the public land, whether State
or national, ought to be made a capital
offense—like horse stealing in the Far
West. Although Attorney General
Knox when in office began the proceed
ings that have resulted in the convic
tion of a few scoundrels in Oregon the
same thievery has been going on for .50
years in every State beyond the Missouri
river. Each and every one of these
cases of palpable fraud ought to be re
opened and the fraudulent sales invali
dated What is the use of public crit
icism of presidents and directors of
trust companies and life insurance com
panies when it is well known that a
long line of Secretaries of Interior have
winked at the stealing of public lands
by members of the political parties to .
which they belonged? They have hesi
tated to arrest the despoilment of the
I Nation "because it might injure the
Grand Old Party." This is not idle
talk from a Republican l know it to
be true. Senators and Representees
have known about crooked work in the
land department for years, and yet
there wasn't a single man in the bunch
who would introduce a resolution ask
ing for an investigation: The Demo
crats are as bad as the Republicans.
What is the use of a minority if it be
not charged with exposing the chicanery
of the majority. All majorities grow
corrupt and arrogant.
What do we see instead? A lot of
cheap politicians going around the
world on a junket when their duties lay
at home. Of what relative importance
are the Philippines to the people of this
country compared to the safeguarding
of the public domain? Several million
acres of Government land have been
stolen by trick and device while the
trusted Secretaries of the Interior —
Chief Justices of the Chancery Court
that is popularly supposed to safeguard
the interest of the helpless millions of
our citizens—were asleep.
This subject is one calculated to make j
a native born or naturalized citizen of
this republic very angry. One has only
to cross half a dozen times on the ocean
steamers to ascertain that millions of
acres of the best grazing land of this
country are in the possession of brag
gart English capitalists who flout us to
our faces with the fact that they do not
owe any allegiance to the United States
and would not give up their British
citizenship. And yet these intruders
have gathered up this land which wonld
furnish thousands of homesteads for de
sirable agricultural population. This
foreign ownership of land is what has
cursed Ireland for 200 years, and
day will come when it will cause revolu
tion and international complications.
Nine-tenths of these vast areas of terri
tory have been acquired by connivance
at fraud! Talk with any former official
in the land office and you cap learn that
these words are true. The men in of
fice today will not dare tell the truth —
although they are assured that there is
a man in the White House who has not
the slightest toleration for thievery in
public office.
THE Lewis and Clark Centennial at
Portland closed last Saturday, and it is
said to have been a success financially.
ONE COW lying on an lowa railroad
track, last Sunday, caused the death of
five men, and the destruction of two
locomotives and eleven cars of grain.
It is believed that the President in his
forthcoming message to Congress will
deal even more forcibly with the ne
cessity of vigorous Federal control or
supervision of corporations engaged in
interstate commerce than he did last
year. The investigations conducted by
the Department of Commerce and
Labor, through the bureau of corpora
tions, into the workings of the beef
trust and the private car lines, and the
very startling developments brought
out by the New York inquiry as to, the
affairs of the great life insurance com
panies, would seem to emphasize the
need for such supervision as will more
efficiently guard the rights of the public
in these directions.
LUTHER BURBANK has done more,
and is doing more, for humanity, than
perhaps any other American. He was
bqjn in Massachusetts in 1449 and re
moved to California in 1875. Mr. Bur
bank, by infinite pains and industry,
coupled with superior intelligence, has
produced a degree of perfection in fruits
and vegetables that is marvellous All
his life has been quietly but earnestly
devoted to this work. The great im
provement in the potato within the past
quarter of a century is mainly due to
his efforts, as well as the production of
the finest varieties of prunes and roses.
Only recently Mr. Burbank succeeded
in developing a variety of cactus with
out thorns, which is a nourishing and
palatable food for cattle. When this is
substituted for prickly pear, and other
thorny cacti which grow so abundant
ly in the great plains of the Southwest
immense herds of cattle will flourish
and fatten there that otherwise could
not have existed.
End of the Tajfgart Case
At Wooster, 0., Friday, the Judge who
heard the divorce case of Major Elmore
F. Taggart against his wife, rendered
his decision, He granta Major Taugart
the divorce and the custody of the two
children. Culver, aged 11, and Charles,
aged 7.
Although Mrs. Taggart is denied pos
session of the children she will be per
mitted to see them Major Taggart
was in conrt daring the reading of the
decision.
Judge Eason reviewed the p«titions,
cross petitions, answers and affidavits,
and in the course of his statements said
the testimony was deeply touching.
The charge of drunkenness against
Major Taggart, the court said, was not
sustained.
Judge Eason, in his decision, said he
considered that infidelity was proven in
the case of Lieutenant Fortesuue at
Fort Leavenworth, and with Wm. Tag
gart, better known as "Billy" Tagtrart
of Orryille, O. Extreme cruelty was
SroveD, he said, wbaa Mrs. Taggart left
im at Fort Leavepworth, when he was
critically ill. General Miner did not
escape a severe scoring. Judge Eason
said: "I am not sure that he was not
implicated in this more than it appears
on the surface."
He also scored Miner for falsifying
Taggart's record, and bringing in the
baa things he is alleged to have done
and leaving out the good service for
which he had complimented him in the
spring of 1908.
"I think Taggart s love was marvel
ous," said Judge Eason, "for even when
he knew hi* wife was guilty of being
untrue, he atili wiched, for tho child
ren's sake. to forgive hw 2nd live with
her again " The only blot upoo Maior
Taggart, is the story given by Emlua
and Mrs. Vose, regarding his fondness
for a "tobacco chewing Filipino "
This case will probably be followed
by the court martlals of the officers im
plicated.
ACCIDENTS.
Ray Rhoades, aged 2-i years, and son
of .T C. Rhoades of Zelienople was
struck by two trains on the B. & O. at
Harmony Junction. Friday afternoon,
and almost instantly killed. He was a
brakeman and jumped off nis own train
to flag other trains on the main line,
when he was struck by an engine going
one way and thrown directly in front
of one going the other way. It was a
remarkable accident.
John H. Kelly, formerly of Clay twp.
and Foxburg and lately night switch
m MI at the Car Works, was run over by
an engine at the "Works, I ridav night,
and so badly cut up and mangled that
he died soon after. He set a switch and
signalled the engineer: and then started
to cross the track before the engine
came up when his foot caught and he
was thrown directly in front of it. Both
of his legs and one arm were crushed,
and his body injured. He was taken to
the Hospital.S but expired soon after
reach.ng it. He was li 7 years of age,
and is survived by his wife, four small
children, two brothers and tv o sisters:
Charles Kelly, an oil man in West Vir
ginia: James Kelly, of West S.inbnry:
Mrs. Harry Cumberland, Insitute Hill;
Mrs. Charles Mershimer, Sheraden.
i Geo Milliron, superintendent of the
McKee limestone and sandstone quar
ries at West Winfield, was attacked by
three foreign workmen last Friday, at
Monroe station. One struck him over
the head with an iron bar, and another
raised a dirk knife, when a stranger
came to his rescue and knocked the
knife out of the man's hand. The men
fled before they could be arrested. Mill
iron was badly injured.
An Englishman named Collins, on
his wav west, died on the train near
Valencia, Tuesday.
Wm. Findlay, a Mercer county farm
er, after having his left hand cut off in
a corn-cutting machine, picked up the

blood by tieing a piece of twine about
his wrist, pulling the knots with his
teeth.

bngan'B line and across the fence Gahag
