JCBY COM MISSION EH,
A. Dale Thome.
Next Governor.
There never was a time in the history
of Pennsylvania when the people were
more aDxious than they are now that a
good, clean, capable and honest man be
their nest Governor. Tbe reasons for
this are well known and the Republican
party will, at its coming State Conven
tion of .Tone 0, endeavor to give the
people such a candidate. Many good
names are mentioned and among them
that of Hon. Charles W. Stone of War
ren connty. So far as we have heard
the Republicans of this connty express
themselves, Mr. Stone appears be the
choice of the majority, and such being
the case our delegates to the convention
will, of course, obey the wishes of our
people in supporting him for the nomi
nation
The New Oil Field.
Whenever a new oil field is discover
ed men in that business from all over
the country flock to it.
At present oil men from this state,
West Virginia, Kansas. Texas and other
states are flocking to southeastern Illi
nois, where oil has been discovered gjn
Clark and counties, both of
which border on the '"banks of the Wa
bash."
For some fifteen years one man has
owned and pumped a well on his lot
within tbe town limits of Terre Haute.
Ind., located on the Wabash. This well
is about 1700 feet deep, and we would
call it a salt-water well, as it produces
vast quantities of that water, beside?
about thirty barrels of oil per day '
which ho disiioses of by tank car*, as
there are no pipe lines in that country.
Other wells have been drilled about this
one, the drillers finding little or no
trace of either oil or saltwater. With
in the past year or so. however, some
drilling near Casey, Clark county, lIL,
about forty miles southwest of Terre
Haute, developed a good quality of oil
at about 500 feet, and the belt which
runs southeast from there, on about a
22-degree line, has been traced through
Crawford county which joins Clark
county on the south, and on through
the southern part of Indiana state into
Kentucky, crossing the Ohio to tbe east
of Evansville. All the wells yet drilled
have been ' shut-in," awaiting the pipe
line; and the country in the supposed
belt has been leased a hundred miles
ahead—the land owners insisting upon
a sixth royalty, and a guarantee of S3O
per acre per year. The land of Clark
and Crawford counties is very rich and
▼ery valuaWe for farming, particularly
for oorn< but further south in what is
«a.liAfl "Egypt" or the rainless district
it is not so valuable. W. Z. Murrin,
who'was there last week, tells us that
he was warned in the towns not to at
get a meal in the country, as
they jrould give him nothing but corn
bread and fat meat to eat, and also that
• few ears of corn thrown to his horse
invariably cost him fifty cents. The
country people have no use for "white"
bread, and it seems to be scarce in the
towns
Charles W. .Stone.
(From the Warren, Pa., "Mirror."
The action of the Republican Connty
, Convention reflects what seems to be
the pretty general feeling throughout
the state to the effect that the nomina
tion of Charles W. Stone for Governor
, at the comiifk Republican State Con
vention would be generally acceptable
to all shades of public opinion, and
would unite and strengthen the party
throughout the state. While entirely
Independent in action and controlled by
no authority except his own convictions
of right, he is recognized as a consistent
and zealous Republican. In tbe dis
charge of his public duties he has mani
fested a fearlessness of consepuences, a
fidelity to principle, and an independ
ence of action that have commanded
universal respect and confidence.
Born on a farm, bis younger days
were spent thereon ahdin working with
his fattier who was a carpenter by trade.
Later he worked bis own way through
college and attained bis present position
by earnest and persevering effort and
the laboring man and the farmer recog
nize in him a man who understands and
appreciates from actual experience and
has at heart their interests and welfare.
After graduating from college, he
read law and soon became interested in
most of the litigation of important- n
his immediate section of the state.
As a member of the House of Repre
sentatives and Senate of the state, as
Lieutenant Governor and Secretary of
the Commonwealth, he has acquired a
knowledge of the details of the state
government in all of it* departments
equalled by few if any men within the
state. As a member of Congress for
nine years, covering the period of the
enactment of both the Wilson and Ding
ley tariff laws, the Spanish wur and the
free silver contest, be broadened bit
knowledge of state affairs and of tii
principles of government. As the rank
ing Rep tiblican member of the Coinage
Committee while Bland was chairman
and later himself succeeding to the
chairmanship, lie took a leading part in
the contest for sound money ami hi i
speeches, reports arid efforts contribute !
in no small degree to the successful set
tlement of that great question Ho en
joyed In full measure the confidence of
President McKinley and of Speaker
lieed, Chairman Dinsrlcy and other lead
ers of the House.
Since his retirement from Congress he
has been engaged in the practice of his
profession and the conduct of his farm
and other business.
During all of his busy and eventful
career. Char It* W. Stone has steadfast
ly maintained a high standard of excel
lence both in his private and public
acts, and has shown a devotion to the
interests of bis constitntents equalled
by few men.
Such is tbe manner of man put for
ward by the Republicans of northwest
ern Pennsylvania as their candidate for
Governor, and they base their claim not
only ou the recognized fitness of their
candidate but upon the broader ground
of their right to recognition by this
year's convention. This section of the
stato has for year after year rolled np
majorities for the Republican ticket and
the people who make these majorities
now ask that they be recognized. Penr.
sylvania has cbosenlier chief executives
from all sections of the state bat the
northwest, which is the centro of some
of the greatest industries in the Com
monwealth. and if this section should
be so recognized, the state would have a
chief executive who is thoroughly fa
miliar with the great oil, coal, manu
facturing and agricultural Industries of
tbe state.
Unfertered by any yoke or obligation
of factional politics, Charles W. Htone
would be able to give to tbe people of
Pennsylvania an administration at once
clean, able and in the interests of the
whole people. The bonr has struck for
the great northwest. Let her make the
SKMt of ber opportunities.
The Hepburn Bill.
After an exciting session of the U. S.
Senate, last Saturday, lasting for seven
hours, ami daring which President
! Roosevelt was bitterly attacked by Sen
: ntors Baily and Tillman for, (as they
1 alleged >. agreeing in advance to the Al
' lison amendment and proviso to the
i Hepburn bill, both were adopted
i They read as follows:
"The venue of suits bronght in and of
j the Circuit Court? of the United States
to enjoin, set aside, annul or suspend
, any order or requirement of the corn
mission-shall be in the district where
| the carrier against whom such order or
I requirement may have been made has
its principal operating office, and may
| be brougnt at anv time after such order
I is promulgated: and if the order or re
| qmrement hns been made against tyro
' ! or more carriers, then m the district
! where any OD? of said carriers has its
I principal operating office: and if the
carrier lias its principal operating office
in the District oi Columbia, then the
i venue shall be in the district where said
* carrier has its principal office, and juris
-3 diction to hear and determine such
suits is hereby vested in such courts
"Provided. That no injunction, inter
1 locntory order or decree suspending or
- restraining the enforcement of an order
3 of the commission shall be granted «?x
--■ ctpt on hearing after E3t less than five
days' notice to the commission An ap
1 peal mav be taken from any interlocat
- orv order or decree granting or eon tine
1 i ing an injunction in any suit, bnt shall
lie only with the Supreme Court of the
United States: provided, further, that
s the appeal must taken within :«>a*ys
j of the entry of such order or deowxai
i it shall take precedence in the Appeal#**
I Court over all other causes, except
causes of like character and criminal
" I causes. "•
The original Hepburn bill allowed «f
I appeal to the courts only from <he
penalties imposed by the Commission—
" I the rate fixed by it to stand—bat tuis
r j amendment, puts the rate itseif in lise
I hand: of the U. 6- Courts, and appsren'.
■ ly makes a burlesque of the whole
r business.
During the debate Senator Baily spoke
1 very bitterly of the President's sur-
render to the railroad interests and
spoke of him a* being "very common
clay": and Senator Tillman rai«ed a
3 question c-f veracity between the Pres:-
' dent and Senator Chandler.
"Tillman's account of messages ex
l changed through ex-Senator Chandler
[ between himself and the President, de
claring a substantial agreement on the
" proper provision with reference to a
' court review, might be open to criticism
* as testimony solely og what one man
j said to him that a'thinl man said. Bat
it is reinforced by the account of a per
sonal interview with Attorney General
' Moody, who was certainly qualified to
> express the Administration view, and
. by a memorandum from the Attorney
General, stating the points agreed upon,
; namely, judicial review as to whether
the Inter-State Commerce Commission
> had exceeded its legal authority, and as
1 to whether anv constitutional rights
were infringed.
1 Thus the Senate establishes that up
1 to a late date there was practical unison
i on this principle between the Adminis
: tration and the limited review Senators:
that the change of front at the White
' House was made without notice to the
' Senators with whom the previous nn
: derstanding had been effected, and that
even Attorney General Mood}- did not
know of it until it was publicly an
nounced. Senator Tillman disclosed
the whole story of the aggreement for
the measure which he favored, and
there is nothing discreditable about it.
It remains to be told what influences
were exerted to induce the President to
abandon the position certified to by his
Attorney General
One attendant feature of this state
ment is highly suggestive. The report
tells of the glee with which the Senate
received the statement, and the una
nimity with which Tillman's time was
extended to enable him to complete it.
It is impossible to ignore the inference
that the majority welcomed with joy
the spectacle of the President being dis
played in a false position. He was mis
led into that position by the maneuvers
of the Senators themselves, but their
happiness over liis exposure is not a jot
diminished by their responsibility for it.
This is a peculiar disclosure of what
was suspected before, viz., that the ele
ment to which the President surrender
ed is glad to see him discredited, while
that which he seems to have deserted
was the one really in sympathy with
his honest purposes."
It may l>e that the President was in
duced to believe that the bill would be
declared unconstitutional by the U. S.
Supreme Court, unless a court review
of its decisions were allowed of; and it
may be that he was induced to look at
the matter from a partisan standpoint
and agree to an amendment that all or
nearly all the Republican Senators
would vote for, but on the face of it, it
looks like a backdown, a surrender to
the railroad and other corporate in
terests.
The bill as amended will probably
pass the Senate, this week, and then go
back to the House; and if it becomes a
law all hope of an effective inter-state
rate bill will, for the present, go glim
mering, and shippers who are being
imposed upon will havo to look to the
state legislature for relief.

the case against the Rev. Or. Crapsey,
the Protestant Episcopal minister of
Rochester, N. Y, on charges of heresy,
considered both charges and both apeci

The concert given in the First Metho
dist church on Thursday evening under
the directorship of F, B. .fanner, was a
largely attended and enjoyable affair.
The concert was participated in by Miss
Lncille Roussing, the Aeiliau club and
a number of other musicians of tie
town, all of whom won new laurels for
themselves.
The concert given in the Y. M. C. A.
hall, Tnesday evening, for the benefit
of the Episcopal church was well at
tended and those present enjoyed one of
the most entertaining concerts of the
season. The affair was in charge of
Miss Jennie Mechling, who had assem

the town for the entertainment and all

handsomely.
Th« annual reception to new mem

the man belonged to a race whose com

Carl Schurz died early last Monday
morning at his home iu New York city,
aged 77 years. lie was a native of
UeTiuauy, »ud while yet a young man
took a prominent part iu the'revolution
ary movement of l.s-ltt and was as a con
sequence compelled to flee that country.
Returning secretly a few years later ho
aided in securing the escape of Kinkel,
one of the leaders of the revolutionary
movement from prison Then lie came
to the United States, which has ever
since been bin home. His love of liberty
for all men quickly led to his becoming
one of the founders of the Republican
party. He performed valuable work
among the German-Americans in be
half of the candidacy of Abraham
Lincoln, and when the latter a-«utned
the Presidency he appointed Mr Schurz
to a foreign mission From this, how
ever, he returned in a few mouths to
enter the Union army. He was in
strumental in inducing thousands of
German-Americans to enlist under the
Stars and Stripes, and as brigadier
general and later as major general In
led many of them in some of the fiercest
conflicts of the war.
After the great c'vil conflict was end
ed he again entere 1 the field of journal
ism, iu which he had made his first
essay in Germany, and in subsequent
years he attained to high distinction in
it. From 1809 to 1875 Mr. Schurz was
a United States Senator from Missouri.
Although he had presided over the con
vention which nominated General
Grant for the first term for President,
nevertheless he as senator opposed
several of his administration's measures
and in 1H72 was oue of the leaders of
the Liberal Republicans who supported
Horace Greeley. In IK7O he supported
Rutherford B." Hays, who made him
secretary of the interior, in which office
he did excellent work. Retiring froisi
this office, he became editor of the New
York "Evening Post-"
Mr. Schnrz performed notable work
in behalf of the cause of good govern
ment He was for years president of
National Civil Service Re form league,
and much of the success of that organ
ization was due to his efforts. Inde
pendence, patriotism, honesty and high
ability always maked the conduct of
Mr. Schurz, and he exerted a wide
influence in moulding a healthy public
opinion.

part he took in the German revolution

Paint "Mixed on the
Premises"
J The best architects
always specify: "Pure
WVI White Lead and Pure
V Linseed
original
packages, to J be K'-'-xed
, on the preni- ij «//■<> ,{' ises." There
are two rea- Y AW =ons: first, to
make sure 110 Jffl übstitute i
used in the \|ff place of Pure
White Lead; and second, ti nt the
paint shall be mixed to suit the particular
tvood and the climatic conditions of the
locality.
If architects with scientific knowledge
end professional reputation are so careful
i»- i to make sure that only the best
/ materials shall be used, is it not
Ifc X quite as incumbent on the
house owner to do as
much for himself, when
not employing profes
sional aid?
Painters of reputation never quarrel v.i'Ji
these specifications, because they realise
tlu: materials called for are necessary to
a satisfactory job. If a painter is con
scientious, lie will of his own accord use
nothing but White Lead which is knaan
to be pure. The standard is
