WASHINGTON NOTES.
The House refused to agree with the
Senate, last week, and will not favor
the admission of Oklahoma and Indian
Territory a* one state unless Arizona i
aad New Mexico are also admitted. The
latter would make a tremendous state
so far aa extent of territory is concern
ed, but have a dubious population. On
the other hand, there ought to be some
way clear for the elimination of
Rhode Island and Delaware as states.
The former should be joined toConnect
icnt and the latter to Both
are small in extent and population, are
political "rotten boroughs," and yet
have have the same representation in
the United States Senate, as have New
York, Pennsylvania or any other of the
great states.
The Naval Committee of tbe House
has voted to bnild a larger battleship
than the English ©readnaught—lately
floated.
The Senate gslleries will probably be
crowded, tomorrow, to hear Senator
Knox, who has informed Senator Till
man that he will be ready to make bis
set speech on the Hepburn bill that day.
It is believed he will confine his atten
tion largely to the court review section
and will advocate bis own amendment
.on thia point. It is also understood he
wffl hold with Senator Spooner as to
the unconstitutionality of Senator
Bailey's plan to forbid the suspension
of orders of the inter state commerce
oommision by interlocutory decree of
the court*, but it is thought he will
soppyrt the proposal that orders of the
commission shall not be suspended by
the courts without notice to tbe com
, mission.
If Senator Bailey has returned to the
city by Friday, it is probable there will
be another highly interesting discussion
fttween htm and Senator Knox on the
format's contention that Congress has
ample power to limit the right of tbe
lower Federal courts to issue injunc
tions. It is the general feeling here
that Senator Spooner did not meet the
arguments of the Texas senator on this
point sad {here will be much interest to
aee whether Senator Knox can do better.
POMTICAJ*
At the Democratic Convention in
Bntler, Monday, John H. Wilson of
Batter and Harvey Beaton, of Zelienople
were nominated for Assembly, Charles
W Heineman for Congress. John Leise
for Jury Commissioner and Frederick
Zehner, Harry M. Henou and James
XoGowan were elected delegates to tbe
State convention.
Tbe Democrats polled but 300 votes
in Bntler, last Saturday, and 100019 the
county. Very little interest is being
taken in politics, this year, and the
toads are bad, but tbe Republicans
should poll at least three thousand vote*
next Saturday.
TUB river-combine of Pittsburg has
six millUm bushels of coal stored away
for a strike.
THE Operators snd Miners at the
Indianapolis Convention have agreed to
disagree, and the strike will begin Mon
day-
SNOWSLIDES continue to kill people
in Colorado. Snow that covers up
houses and trains is not unusual at the
foot of the mountains
THIS failure of the rice crop in north
em Japan, list summer, and a hard
winter there, have caused a famine. A
million people are said to be suffering.
"THE Cincinnati gang was like all
the other gangs, only more so," remarks
tbe Philadelphia Press. If it was more
so than the Pittsburg and Philadelphia
exhibits it was a daisy.-Ex.
THE Ohio Legislature has passed, by
• close margin in the Senate, the Aiken
bill increasing tbe tax on saloons from
the SBSO fixed by the Dow law to SI,OOO.
It is accepted that Governor Pnttison
will sign tbe bili as soon as possible.
The brewing interests declare that tbe
increese will close at least half the
saloons in Obio, estimated to mean a re
daction of 0,000.
PHILADELPHIA has had a surprise in
the form of an indication what terms
for the grant of franchises can be secur
ed by a city government known to stand
for tbe Interest of the people Both
Philadelphia aud Pittsburg have for a
generation been governed in the interest
of corporate speculators. Now Philadel
phia, .having been the first to revolt
from ring rule, is getting its first taut*
of the larger results of good govern
went.
A corporation alleged to be alii Hated
with the Wsbssh wishes to enter Phila
delphia with an elevated and under
ground road. It recognizes that under
♦he present regime it must pay the city
for the privilege, and here Is what it
proposes at the outset: It agrees in
three years to build an <-leyate<l rail
road from Sixty-third street to the
Schuylkill and an underground road
from the Schuylkill to the Delaware.
When completed It Is to pay 2 per cent
of its gross receipts to the city, which
is to increese 1 per cent each year until
it rescbee 5 per cent, which is then to
continue for the rest of a 8-1 year term.
At tbe end of the 35 vears the property ,
is to revert to tbe city, subject to an
option of tbe company to lease it for 40 ,
years more at a rental of Woo, 000 per
year sad 0 per cent of the gross receipts
ia addition.
Exercising The Franchise.
People who enjoy the blessings of a
Republican form of government in
which every citizen has a right to par
ticipate. and the vote of the humblest
counrs aa much as that of the mightiest,
ought constantly to be impres-wd with
the responsibilities that rest uj-on each
and all.
In exercising the franchise we should
not be controlled by petty or unworthy
motives, but should think only of the
good of the community, the State and
the Nation. Experience proves that the
coherence necessary to concerted action
can only be maintained through party
organization and party fealty, nenee
it happens that the party caucus is of
immense importance. A gocd citizen
and a good party man ought to have
the greatest concern that his party
nominates only such men as will com
mand and deserve the support of good
men at the general election The good
of the party as well as the state dc
mands this.
Every voter should not only take the
trouble to inform himself thoroughly
about the character and fitness of can
didates before deciding whom to sup
port, but should base his decision solely
upon the public good. He should ask
himself the question, which of these
aspirants would I choose if I were act
ing as sole agent for the people and had
the power to appoint ?
; After a voter nas made up his mind
what his duty is he should endeavor to
impress his neighbors with his view and
, exert his best endeavors to the end that
tbe public service should have the use
of the best and worthiest men available.
Every man should be a politican to that
extent, and no personal or selfish
motives, or timidity about getting ill
will of other candidates or their *-lends
should have the slightest influence upon
him. When a candidate, upon learning
that you have decided to support one of
, his opiwnents, says: "Well, if you can
not be for me, don't do anything for
the other fellow," he is asking you to
waive your right of citizenship., to sup
press your convictions, violate your own
manhood and prove a traitor to what
you regard as the best interests of the
people at large.
As a rule we regard the sacred right
of suffrage too slightly. We do not
sufficiently appreciate the responsibil
ities resting niton us. We permit our
selves to be governed by extraneous and
altogether irrelevant matters, and think
that, when our passions and prejudice
have been aroused our judgments have
been enlightened, when the truth is,
we have merely been rendered imcom
petent to exercise our reasoning facnl
- "Zeal for tbe public good," says
Steele, "is the characteristic of a man
of honor and a gei-tleman, and must
take the place of pleasures, profits, and
all other private gratifications." But
! too many men look upon the public as
1 their debtors and their prey, and, en
trenched in power, drive men like sheep
to do that which is for their own ag
grandizement. under the pretense that
1 they are leading them along the straight
. paths of patriotism and civic virtue.
The tendency to prostitute the right
of suffrage to base uses is the greatest
1 danger that besets this Republic. Pre
judices, which govern the ignorant, and
the corrupt use of money by which the
vicious and unscrupulous are controlled,
1 are alike perilous toour institutions and
- subversive of good government.
1 The men who attempt to influence
, voters through their prejudices, or by
the use of money, and those who are
thus influenced, are alike culpable.
1 Politics needs to be placed upon a
i higher plain. And the only way to do
> it is to educate the people to loftier
| ideals. For this purpose the press, the
1 pulpit, schools and colleges should con
-1 stantly raJiate light on this subject;
and every parent should endeavor to
impress it upon his children, and every
good citizen upon bis environment.—
MR. WALLACE'S paper with regard
1 to the Panama canal, as submitted to
t tbe Senate committee, devoted a large
, share of its space to superiority of the
, sea-level plan to that for the lock canal.
This Involves so many purely engineer
, in? questions that it is impossible to
r pass any further judgment on Mr.
( Wallace's opinion than that it seems to
, be supported by the majority of the en
gineering experts.
A NOTABLE reunion of the men who
wore the Blue and the Gray was in pro
gress at Vicksburg, Miss., last week.
, tbe occasion being the dedication of the
s monuments to the Pennsylvania soldiers
( of the Civil war who are buried at that
| place. Governor Pennypacker, ex-Uov
, ernor Beaver and a considerable nom
| ber of other old Pennsylvania Union
( soldiers were present and were enter
tained by Governor Vardaman of Miss
isigpi and many ex-Confederates. Tbe
1 National Gnard of Mississippi was also
' in attendance to take part in the cere
' monies! and to help welcome ihe vlsi
* tors.

, ABOUT one-fourth of the total exports
of leather and Its manufacturers from
this country is in the form of boots and
1 shoes. And this class of exports has in
r creased nearly $4,000,000 with the past
four years. Tbe total exportation of
> boots and shoes was $8,(100.000 iu 1905
> as compared with $7,819,000 in 1904 and
. $4,620,000 In 1900. A few years ago
British Anstralasia was our best market
for boots and shoes, while Great Britian
' was the only other country which
bought of us, more than a million dol
' lars worth of footwear daring a twelve
month. Now the conditions appear to
have greatly changed and British Ans-
I tralasla is one of our smallest custo
mers.
THE "write-up" men on the New
York papers are busy doping out how
much the new Rockefeller baby will be
' worth by the time he will cast his vote.
1 One statistician places the amount'at
, not less than $1,000,000,000. This is
certainly being a very rich heir. Against
this tbe statistician places the following
tableof the assessed value of the follow
ing States of the Union: Washington,
. $iJ : iH,000.000; Oregon, sl* X,000,000; Cali
fornia, $450,000,000, and Nevada, SUB,-
' 000,000, making a total of $1,000,000,000.
1 Before his pipe went out the statistician
added; "If young Rockefeller should
buy up these States, establishing Ne
vada. California, Washington aud
Oregon as his principalities, making
i Los Angeles a mere gentleman's country
, seat and San Francisce just a harbor
for his yacht with Washington for a
game preserve, it would be a gentle ex
position of the astounding centraliza
tion of wealth brought about bv his
granddad's hard, weird methods of com

CHAIRMAN SHOUTS of the Panama
| Canal Commission was pointing out the
, necessity of amusement for the work
k men on the huge canal,
t ' Nothing breaks tbe health and cows
the spirit like monotony," be said. "The
* monotony of every workman's life must
' b« pleasantly varied or the poor fellow
» will be unable to work well."
He smiled.
A young lady recently took a post as
governess in a rich New York family,"
' he said. "The residence of this family
was magnificent. The young lady wa«
especially impressed uy the footman
, who stood In the hall.
"This footman was tall and robust
and shapely. He wore a glittering
livery, with knee breeches and brown
silk stockings, and standing in the hall,
opening the door or conducting visitors
to the drawing room, he was a stately
and grand an/1 solemn picture. His face
was ss expressionless as a statute. He
was as still and unbending ax a lamp
post.
•Well, one day, In the family's ab
sence, the ne«v governess beard down
stairs a most hideous din shouts jells
aDd shrieks, as though a couple of
t»a»isca had broken loose and fallen to
lighting.
I A« she listened nervously n maid
harried upstairs, entered her room and
said;
" Don't be scared, miss It's only the
footman. When everybody la out he
always shouts and hollers so. He says
he can t help it. >t relieves bis feelings. "
Council Doing??.
At the special meeting of the Town j
Council, Tuesday evening. *he first bus-1
iness transacted was the adoption of a
resolution propared by Solicitor Christ
ley providing that hereafter ordinances
shall be adopted only after Deing
held at least two weeks for considers
tion, and that franchises granted for
street car purposes of other public util
ities shall be for a period not exceeding
.10 years. Mr. Say offered a resolution
to rescind the ordinance granting the
Pittsburg and Butler St. Railway Co. a
franchise over E. Cunningham St set
ting forth the reason that the company
hal not complied with its term 3 in not
opening Snllivan Ave. between West
and Shore Sts. for the borough. This
was laid on the table for two weeks.
The Pittsburg and Bntler Co. then
asked to have the ordinance vacating
'M feet of the alley between West and
Shore Sts, for the benefit of the compa
ny reconsidered and recalled, and re
placed with another ordinance vacating
the alley, because the first ordinance was
passed without legal publics' on as is
i required for ordinances -Heating
thoroughfares The people ci West
and Shore Sts. laid a petition before
Council asking that the vacating ordi
nance be rescinded, but for the very dif
ferent reason that their properties
■ were damaged by closing the alley. The
new vacating ordinance is now before
the Council for publication.
The Street Railway Co then asked
for the passage of an ordinance grant
ing them the right to lay switches j»n <l
Ys on West St. A petition signed by
, nearly all the properly holders had been
i laid before a previous meeting protest
ing against this, and a dozen residents
, of West St. were present to kick. Fin
ally a committee consisting of Messrs
Say, Hays, Miller, Turner and Schenck
were appointed to confer with a com
mittee of the West St. citizens and the
street car people and see what terms
could be arranged.
Other matters that came before Coun
cil were: Request of the School Board
for a fire bell at Main and Jefferson Sts.
for use on the Broad Street building,
changes to the overhead bridge on
Lookout Ave.; the claim of Mrs. Mary
Hall of CJJav St. for damages for in
juries received by falling on the street,
referred to Street Commissioner and
Solicitor; deciding to settle claim for
damages to Sanderson property on New
Castle St. by paying $700; deciding to
place slag and stone on road to gar
bage furnace: referring the matter of
cleaning tbe streets to the Street Com
mittee with power to act. May they
act at once is the hope of every one in
Butler.

TAME AND EXAMINE
IjVirlt Our New Goods
Even if you're not quite ready to buy,
it will itive yon an idea as to what's «ro
iug to be worn and how mnrk it will
cost. Some of our best customers come
iu two or three times before making a
final decision.
THINKING IT OVER
assists their selection in a more satis
factory manner. Some prefer deciding
at once, and either way pleases us.
We're sure you'll like the new suitings
we're now showing and want you to get
in and get an early pick.
