THE BUTLER CITIZEN. WILLIAM 0. NEOLKY - Publisher THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 16.1905. s[.Bo per rear (a Advipce. Otherwise sl.s# THE EXTRA SESSION. Senator Knox and Gov. Pennypacker have had their beads together of late and, apparently, without consulting Senator Penrose have agreed npon an extra session of the Legislature as the proper panacea for the ills of the State. •The Governor in his proclamation issued last Saturday, enumerates seven subjects for consideration i>y lature, i e : the consolidation of cities the interest on and disposition of the the state's moneys; re apportionment of the state into Representative and Sena torial districts; i>erßonal registration; government of cities of the first class expenditure for county bridges, and abolishing the fee system in the offices of the Secretary of the Commonwealth and Insurance Commissioner These seven subjects, and they alone, can be considered at the coming extra session. The first subject means the pjweage of an act to consolidate Pitts burg and Allegheny, this act to taki place of the one that was declareu un ■■constitutional by the Supreme Court the second is needed, the wrecking ol the Enterprise bank showed that; tbt third, the reapportionment of the state will probably make no difference tc this county, as we will continue to hav< two members in the Legislature, but ii will make a difference in Alleghenj county whose increase in populatior will entitle her to eight more members or 24 in all, while several agricnltura counties like Indiana, Clarion, Craw ford, Huntingdon, etc. will lose one Philadelphia, Luzerne and Lackawann; counties will each gain two and West moreland and two or three othei counties one. The combined Alleghem county and Philadelphia county dele gations would number 6T>, an uncom fortable bunch to go up against. Phila delphia will have 41 members or mori than one fifth of the whole, while it Senatorial representation is limited b; the Constitution to one-sixth. Th' fourth Personal Registration —ha been eat down upon by the gang a Harrisburg for years. The fifth is supposed to mean the re peal of the Philadelphia ripper bil which does not become effective nnti next year. The sixth, regarding th. prices paid for county (and presumabl: state) bridges is needed, as the bridge companies have combined and are mak ing the counties and states pay fron two to four prices for their bridges. The seventh, to abolish fees in th< two big State offices at Harrisburg ant substitute salaries is also needed as th< aggregates have become immense. Ar object lesson in the fee or percenttge system is found in the office of Delin quent Tax Collector of Pittsburg, whose percentages add up abonl |60,000 a year. This program as prepared by the Governor is a large dish of Crow for Mr. Penroee, who may not relish it, and who with'his adherents may put up a fight on it. The Governor is said to be consider, ing a supplementary proclamation which, if correct, should include the press-muzzier act, now a dead letter on the statute books; and the state con stabulary act, which will put the ■tate to an entirely useless and extra ex pense of about half a million yearly both pet measures of his. The Govern or is not blameless for last winter's legislation ard he should include a little "crow" for himself. The legislature is to meet in the new capitol at Harrißburg, on the third Mon day of January next, the 15th, presum ably with the same officers, clerks and committees; the session will cost the state the best part of a million dollars, and it is to be hoped that enough of the sins of the previous session will be ex piated to make it worth that to the people of the state.

Castle as special counsel. The Pennsylvania shift impresses on the Chicago Post the fact that though "it will be tremendously hard work" it is necessary "to picture Governor Pennypacker in the role of reformer." Perhaps it will not be quite so hard if you remember that the role is really that of ' 'reformer in spite of himself." —Ex. Bntler county cast 8,961 votes at the late election. ' Plummer carried Armstrong county by 158, and Crawford county by 275. Westmoreland Co. cast 19,970 votes. Berry carried Lawrence by 1559; though the Republican County ticket won out. Beaver Co. went for Berry by 1,150, and elected Holt, fusion candidate for Judge over Martin by 978. Pattison's plurality in Ohio over Her rick is 41,705, and the Cox "machine" in Cincinnati went to the dump with the Penrose-Durham combine of Phila delphia Venango Co. gave Berry 1,184, and elected Criswell by 382 over Glenn. Berry carried Plummer s home coun ty of Blair by 639, though it is usually strongly Republican. The official vote of Delaware county, the home county of Treasurer-Elect Berry, is: Plummer, 9,865; Berry, 9.821; a plurality for Plummer of 44. Last year Roosevelt had a plurality of 11,470, In 1903 Mathues, for State Treasurer, who is also a resident of Delaware Co., had a plurality of 9,096. Chester county, official—Plummer, 7,586; Berrv, 10,587. Edward D. Reilly (Dem.) will not ac cept the office of County Commissioner of Lancaster Co., to which he was elect ed after one of the bitterest political battles in the history of the county. Reilly won over Eli Hess, the Lincoln candidate. The reason advanced by Mr. Reilly is that he cannot conscien tiously take the oath of office,as he gave Hess a note for SI,OOO, ostensibly to coyer campaign expenses, to secure Hess' withdrawal in the Democratic convention, which assured Reilly's nom ination. Hess never cashed this note, the receipt of which he publicly ac knowledged and it figured prominently in the campaign. It is claimed that as a consequence of Reilly's refusal the court will reappoint J. Val Wise, pres-1 ent Democratic Commissioner. The finding of mutilated ballot boxes in the North river, in alleys and in the dark corners of voting places in New York confirms the suspicion that Tam many was practicing its usual crooked tricks at the late election. It is too early to say whether these disclosures, and a recount of the votes will place Hearst in the mayoralty seat or leave McClellan safe with a further reduction of his slim plurality, but there is no question that frauds were perpetrated at the polls. One feature in connection with the proposed contest of the election for Mayor in New York is worthy the study of Pennsylvanians and particularly of Pittsburgers When it appeared that there was doubt as to the honesty of the count there was agreement outside of Tammany that the ballot boxes should be placed in enstody at once and a recount had at an early day. Such lawyers as Jerome, Ivins and Judge Gaynor approved this course; and the imminent probability that it would be done may have had its influence in the bestowing of ballots in the river and in alley ways. The reason for this course is plain enough. The honesty of elections ia so clearly the foundation of republican government that anv doubt casts a cloud on the title. Elections, like Caesar's wife, should be above suspicion. If it is worth while to spend millions to hold elections it is certainly worth while to take the extra time ta provide a check on fraud by an easy ex amination and recount. For this reason intelligent opinion in New York is a unit in demanding a reconnt on the suspicion of frand. To the few intimate friends who re ceived election returns with him at the White House. President Roosevelt did not hesitate to express satisfaction with the triumph of the reform element. He was particularly gratified over the elec tion of Jerome as District Attorney in New York and the victory of Mayor ! Waaver and the city ticket in Phil»- delphta It is said, also, that while somewhat surprised over the way the voting went generally in Ohio, he did not shed any tears l>ecause of the defeat of the Cox machine in Cincinnati, When Secretary Taft made his famous Rpeeuh at Akron, in which he declared that if he were in Cincinnati on Election Day he would vote against the local Repub lican ticket, it is believed that bo echoed the sentiments of his chief. The recent utterances of the President on his Southern trip made it clear that he had no sympathy with the kind of bossism that prevailed in Ohio. Speaking of the contest between the Flinn and Biglow factions the Pittsburg Dispatch aays: In considering the local ticket it must be said that the defeat of the Citizens is deserved. Starting as a reform party they made a record of violated pledges from the first big test and maintained that unfortunate record on all the important franchises. While they showed some improvement in the administration of city and county of fices this failed to compensate for their bad faith with regard to the vital pledges on which they first secured public approval. The inevitable result of this was to alienate public confidence and prepare the way for the defeat they have sustained The result of Tuesday's election in this state means several things. The first is that party lines will not hold the people when they are being robbed of their cash and civil rights at the same time. The second is that the Republi can party must have a new leader, one who will have a decent respect for the right« of the led. Personal registration, a ballot that does not compel the ma jority to vote a straight ticket, and new partv rules that will not prevent the poor man from being a candidate are a few of the things coming.—Freeport Journal. SOME Republicans of Philadelphia sent Sec'y Root a significant dispatch. It read: "The masquerade is over. The criminal and corrupt combination has been driven from power by the right eous indignation of a gieat Republican city. We have only begun. Our thanks to you for your splendid aid." ACCIDENTS. T. M. Porter was badly cut about the face and had a shoulder dislocated by a fall at the Car Works, Monday. Wm, Shay of Bluff St. had his arm broken by a drunken man, Saturday. John Hempstead of Pittsburg wag ac cidently shot in the leg while hunting, near Harrisville, Tuesday. Joseph Martin of near Valencia, who was accidently shot in the leg by his companion, while hunting cn the Ira , Crawford farm, on Friday, the 3d inst, I died last Thursday—the immediate cause of his death being lockjaw or te- j tanus. He leaves a wife and one child. Henry Gelbach of Forward twp. had his left hand mangled in the cogs of a. ! fodder shredder, a few day* ago. While John Miller was crossing a j bridge over Little Connequenessing creek at Eairle's mills last Friday, driv ing two horses attached to a wagon loaded with 70 bushels of buckwheat, the bridge broke. Miller was seriously injured, one horao was crippled, the wagon smashed and all but 10 bushels of the buckwheat was lost. The bridge was a wooden one with a 52-foot span, and the accident occurred when the team was on the middle of it. Roy Tait, a Bessie brakeman had a finger cut off by a cab window, last Friday. Wm. Rambo, a West Peon (ire-map, had a foot broken at the Butler turn table, last week. Edward Byers of Fairview twp. had his face badly burned by a gas explo sion a few days ago. W. A. Parks, a son of Wm, Parks of Middlesex twp , an employee of a tele phone company, was killed by a live wire in Allegheny, last Thursday. The two men on the pole let fall a lead cable, shouting that it was charged. Not withstanding the warning Parks and a man named Grimes grasped the cable and both were instantly killed. Mr. Parks was 49 years of age and leaves a wife and five children.

Blackberries should be topped so as to check growth, harden canes to endure cold and stim ulate fruit bearing. The same treat ment is advisable for black cap rasp berries where tips are not wanted to grow plants; also prune the tip ends of peach trees. I would not neglect this trimming even should it cost $2 per hour, concludes a Missouri correspond ent in an exchange. Clean ITp. If there are any bushes, briers or rank growing weeds along the fenees in the meadows or by the roadside, they should receive attention, thus add ing much to the better condition and good appearance of fields and roads. PIGEON POINTS The pigeon house must not only be rat proof, but also damp proof. The squab loft should have a south and east front. Overfeeding of buckwheat or henip seed is apt to produce vertigo. Never breed from imuaature stock. Birds under six months of age cannot give good results. The successful squab raiser must be a keen observer. Never use straw or hay for nesting material, as the hollow center becomes an Incubator for vermin. The sigQs of decay are sterility, care less and insufficient feeding of the young and the rearing of only one bir«l in a nest. To produce the largest sized young the parents should be large, heavy aud full breasted birds.—Farm Journal. luver Studio Has added a full line of amateur Photo Supplies, Cam eras, Films, Dry Plates, De velopers, Printing out and de veloping papers.
