POLITICAL.
Berry's plurality over Plnmmer in the
sTate was 88,230.
A Republican paper in Cincinnati re
marks that the party does not want a
boss to succeed Cox. Judging from the
size of the Cox dose, the suggestion
seems unnecessary.
All talk of a contest for the office of
Sheriff of Butler county has subsided.
The decisions of our Supreme court as
to the marking of tickets are against
it, and besides this the costs, which
might run up into the thousands, would
follow the verdict.
•Among the visitore to Harrisburg last
week on legal business was Charles W.
Stone, of Warren, former State senator,
lieutenant governor, secretary of the
Commonwealth and congressman. Mr.
Stone was not grieving oyer the recent
defeat of the gangsters. It was the
Andrews gang that eliminated him
from politics in his congressional dis
trict, simply because he would not do
the bidding of the late Senator Quay
To humiliate him, Sibley, a Democrat,
was put op and then every Quay-
Andrews Republican in the district was
ordered to vote against him. As a re
sult Stone was defeatsd, and retired
from politics. He says it is a good
•thing for the party to get a shaking up
once in a while, as it takes some of the
conceit out of the men who think it
could not exist unless they are leading
it.
The evidence of Senator Piatt of N.
Y. before the insurance investigations
contained matter for public digestion.
The testimony that he had Teceived
fIO,OOO per year as "campaign contri
butions," involving an understanding
that this was to prevent legislation dis
agreeable to the big insurance man
agers, is so entirely in accord with what
has gone before as to be almost com
monplace. But the assertion that while
this commenced not less than ten years
ago, he cannot be certain exactly how
long, because he has "no records, is
worth considering as starting a new
line of thought If a record was kept
of the money spent for a certain
candidate in this county, this year, its
publication would make interesting
reading matter.
Announcement is made that the Quay
statue is to be erected, willy nilly.
It is not entirely impossible that
future years may bring into existence a
if' Legislature radically opposed to the
class of politics which such a monument
would commemorate. It is certainly
I worth pondering whether the embar-
I rassment of having such a Legislature
[ order the removal of the statue would
I not be greater than to have it quietly
I dropped now. One compromise, how-
I ever says the Dispatch, might be feas-
I ible. If it were inscribed on the base
I of the statue that the political system it
I represents was overwhelmingly con-
I . demned by the people at the first State
■ election after the death of its subject
■ the political lesson might be held so
■ valuable as to justify the erection of the
I Extra Session Notes.
ft At a meeting of the Allegheny Co.
■ delegation to the present legislature, in
■ Pittsburg, last Saturday, a resolution
K was adopted asking the Governor to
■ amend his program for the extra session
■ so as to include the enactment of laws
■ providing uniform primaries, a State
I and municipal civil service based upon
I the merit system and a better system
■ of making appropriations for charitable
I institutions.
B At last winter's session our members
■ were threatened with the loss of the ap
■ propriations for this county if they did
■ not rote with the gang, and they were
B taken down to a breakfast at the River
■ are. mansion, and afterwards plead
~ with to vote for the press-muzzier and
H some other bills.
At the meeting of the American Fed
s'l' eration of Labor in Pittsburg, last
Saturday, a resolution was adopted
■ calling on Governor Pennypacker to
■ supplement his official convocation of
H the general assembly by demanding
■ legislation on labor matters, and partic
nlarly in connection with the miners
Kv and employers liability law,
W ' Senator Penrose says he will "go
along" with tbe Governor and Senator
H Knox He ought to resign One wonders
H why Quay chose such . a man for his
colleague.
A ripple of laughter was heard on
Capitol Hill. Harrisburg, last week,
when it was made public that the legis
ts lators from Chester county had decided
■ not to take any pay for their services
■L dnring the extra sesion of the Legisla
■ ' ture. It was the nnanimous opinion
■ that that sort of thing will not become
■ contagious, and that the legislator who
■ declines to take what is rightfully his is
■ making a show of virtue, and is not
■ fooling anybody.
■ IN the New York legislature the
large Republican majority in both
■ houses was increased at the late elec
■ tion
- ONCE again the "expert engineers'
■ have decided in favor of a sea-level
H canal— when everybody thought the
■ diggers were a digging
CONDITIONS in Russia seem to bs i m
proving. Witte is making a tremendous
H effort to keep the pot from boiling over
H till he gets the new government started.
ONE of the many passenger steamers,
plying between England aud France
struck a rock at the entrance of a
harbor, during a storm, last week, and
H went down with 128 people.
THE President's declaration that
brutality and foul play in football are
on the same level as cheating at cards
■PL puts tbe question to the sports in
language they can understand.
Saturday the Norwegian storth-
Prince Charles of Denmark i
as king in accordance with the result of
the popular vote on the subject. A del
egation proceeded to Denmark to tender
the crown to the prince, who accepted
it, and his coronation will take place at
Christiania next Saturday The pres
ent reigning family of Sweden are dc
scendents of Gen Bernadotte, a French
man and one of Napoleon's marshals
A CORRESPONDENT of the Phila
delphia "Ledger" suggests that there be
inscribed upon a mural tablet in the
courtyard of the City hall this passage
from the "concessions'' sent by William
Penn to tbe early settlers of West:
Jersey We lay a foundation for after!
ages to understand their liberty as men j
and as Christians, that they may not be
brought into bondage but by their own
consent, for we put the power in the :

Tbe Republican caucus of members
of the next House of Representatives
will be held on Saturday evening. Dec.
2, and promises to be of short duration
and harmonious action. Joseph G.
Cannon, of Illinois, will be nominated
by acclamation as the Republican can
didate for Speaker, and his election will
be confirmed when the House assembles
on Monday. December 4.
Besides the unanimous nomination of
Mr. Cannon, the leaders says that the
officials cf the last House will be nomin
ated again by the caucus and re-elect
ed. The officers are: Clerk. Alexander
McDowell, of Sharon, Pa : sergeant at
arms, nenry Casson; doorkeeper, F. B
Lvon: postmaster, Joseph C McElrov;
chaplain. Rev. Henry N. Condon. It is
also said that tbe new officers will make
no changes in the minor officers under
them, and therefore very few if any
changes will occur in the officials of the
next House.
Niehts Verstelien.
The alleged election frauds in this
country are a source of wonder to the
Germans, and the comments of their
press on the corruption and bribery of
our elections will probably do more
than all the efforts of tbe government
to keep German subjects from emigrat
ing to America.
Similar outrages perpetrated upon
the voters of Berlin or any other great
German city would have created a revo
lution, and charges of cheating in the
coant of votes have never been made
against any party there even during the
most bitterly fought contests between
Socialists and Conservatives.
That anybody could be so degraded
to sell his vote is also considered most
remarkable, and the concensus of opin
ion is that the people of America have
exactly the government they deserve as
long as they have the remedy in
their own hands.
The arguments used in the United
States against municipal ownership ap
pear most ridiculous to the German
mind because of the success of the same
principles in many cities there. ' 'Things
are called anarchism in the great re
public on the other side of the Atlantic,'
says a Berlin paper, commenting in the
in the arguments used by the antagonists
of municipal ownership dnring the
campaign in New York, "which the
most conservative people here consider
perfectly proper, and it would be quite
interesting to know what Americans
would think of the plan which is being
seriously considered by representatives
of many German cities of giving sub
urbanites free transportation to and
from their work and business on mu
nicipally owned street cars to encourage
the building of homes and abolish tene
mente. "Undoubtedly this must be
ranked as anarchy, and the kaiser, who
heartily approves of it. would, in the
United States, be denounced as an arch
conspirator of the public welfare.
"In a great many respects we are
better off under our municipal govern
ment than the people of the United
States in their much praised republic,
which is developing into an earthly
paradise for the privileged few and a
perfect hell for the working masses.
Under existing circumstances the
United States is a good place to keep
away from."
CONGRESS will meet December 4th
Mr what is known as the long session.
Thursday is Thanksgiving day,
and this Nation has many things to be
thankful for. We are the most pros
perous big Nation of tbe planet, and
the late election indicates the dawn of
better political conditions. The influ
ence of the President is gradually find
ing it way to every cross-roads of the
I country.
IN answer to some inquiries made by
the Pittsburg Dispatch, Mr. Hays, one
of our Assemblymen, wrote—
To the Editor of The Dispatch:
Yours of the ICth to hand making in
quiry in regard to my opinion as to the
matter of the principal subjects of tbe
Governor's proclamation. First —When
the people of Pittsburg and Allegbeny
agree on some plan to unite I am with
them. Second—l favor a higher rate of
interest for the use of the State money,
and limit the amount of money placed
in banks or depositories to 10 or 15 per
cent of tbe capital stock of the banks;
payment of all the State debt, and pay
ment of the appropriations due the
schools, hospitals and all the charitable
institutions promptly when due. Let'
the Treasurer take the same securities
that any good business man would when
be loans bis money. Stop all tbe graft
by fine or imprisonment. I will vote
for a fair Senatorial and Representative
apportionment of the State. I will vote
for personal registration of cities. I
will vote to repeal the Philadelphia
ripper. THOMAS HAYS.

Neighborhood Notes.
Eigbteen-thousand barrels of old
rye whisky went up in blue flame at
Broadford, Fayette county, near Con
nellsville, last' Sunday afternoon. One
of the bonded warehouses of the Over
holt distillery took fire and burned,
with all its contents. The A. Overholt
Co. is one of the largest manufacturers
of whisky in the world. The plant is
practically owned by H. C. Fr'ck and
the Mellons of Pittsburg. It was es
tablished by A. Overholt in 1810. It
was burued in 1884 and was rebuilt on
a much larger scale. The burned build
ing was one of fonr ware-honses con
taining 18,000 barrels of whisky eight
years old. The fire presented a firilliant
picture that night, tbe flashes of flame
lighting the country for miles around.
Protests against the erection of a
Quay statue in Capitol Park. Harris
burg are reaching Gov. Pennypacker
from all over the state, and it is believ
ed that even unshaken as he is in ad
miration for the deceased senator he
will not feel like insisting that tbe com
mission proceed with its ta«W Some of
the protests intimate strongly th« t >o3-
sjbflity of incidents connected with any
thing in tbe nature of a formal unveil
ing of a Quay etatue of such a nature as
i would be distressing to the family.
Philadelphia was the sceii* of an ocld
funeral last Sunday. Tbe remains of
two men, imbedded in a vaet lump of

at the midvale uteei works, were with
the metal itself buried in a grave, ten
feet deep, on the ground.

as to blow it and the boiler-house into
fragments, last Thursday: and Ed

Frank Kennedy, the teamster, was
thrown from his wagon, loaded with

last Friday. He fell directly in front
of the wagon and the front wheel pass

Butler Torpedo Co's magazine, located
on the Sullivan tract, a mile east of
town, was blown to splinters and cre
mated at a time when, fortunately, no

the explosion is not known but it is
supposed to have been tin overheats!

ing, left the gas burning. This is the
first explosion of glycerine in or about
Butler which killed nobody.
During the drive from Butler to Zion
Lutheran church in Concord twp..

dug for the water main in the Main
street of the town, last Monday evening,

into the ditch and then gone down after
it To get out he likely attempted to
crawl up the fire hydrant which was
atanding almost plum in the ditch,
without being supported in any way,
his weight causing the hydrant to topple
over into the ditch with him beneath it.

In his sermon at the Vine street, Cin

Sunday, the pastor, Rev. Herbert S.

"We have turned the rascals out.
Now the problem is to keep them out.
"Yesterday we were hanging our
head# with a sense of civic shame. To
day our b&me is no longer a reproach
among the peoples. Yesterday men
spoke of the power of organisation, of
the grip of the gang, and few had faitii
that the machine could bo dislodged
that was wielding a reign of terror in
1 the town. Today that machine is
smashed, its terror is gone, its Samson
is shorn of his locks, and there is none
to fear him now Yesterday men spoke
in whispers. Today they are unafraid.
Yesterday they seamed paralyzed and
helpless. Today they are astounded at
themselves and glory in their new
found freedom.
