Co. John W. Carson and ex-Sheriff
Bliss were nominated for the Legisla
ture; J. T. Mecklem, for Jurv Commis
sioner; E. F. Acheson, forCongTees, and
W. R Harris, for Protlionotary. The
delegates to the state convention were
said to have agreed that under no cir
cumstancea would they give proxies to
Frank A. Judd, or Senator White.
At the late Republican primary in
Armstrong county the following ticket
was nominated, for Congress Joseph
G. Beale; Assembly, S. B. Cochrane,
Hiram J. Sedwick; Sheriff, Chambers
Frick; District Attorney, T. P. Culbert
son; Jury Commissioner, E. Morrow;

Acheson had no opposition for Con
gress in Lawrence county and had >,9-4
votes. Chas. H. Young, the nominee
for District Attorney had 2,756 votes,
while Dickey had 2,647.
Jefferson McMiehael of Mercer Co.
. was arrested on the charge of stuffing
the ballot box.
In Westmoreland county the gub
ernatorial situation has been almost
lost sight of in the contest between Huff
and Robbins for Congressional honors.
Both candidates have set up delegates
and the election of the latter will un
doubtedly follow the vote of those that
head the ticket.
Washington county endorsed Rep.
Acheson for Governor.
The Lincoln party state leaders, at a
conference in Pittsburg, Tuesday, de
cided to drop the gubernatorial boom
initiated by them for Judge Joseph
Buffington and to rally around the ban
ner of former Senator Lewis Emery of

The Prohibs of Butler county "ar
raign the solid rum power as it is
' organized" and "charge the Republican

their own standpoint."
Last Friday they nominated the fol
lowing ticket: State Legislature, Robert
Irwin of Evans City, and Edwin
Hnmphfeys of Portersville; Jury Com
missioner, James Follett of Bruin.

the recent primary canvass, as shown
P I)ii inn immlhi' I Xh)>
' 1 Itf Minch larger than is shown in the
statements of the other aspirantc for
' nominations. There is nothing in Mr.
Milliron's statement, however, on which
to base unfavorable criticism. The
greater part of his bill of expense—or,
to be exact, $769.05— belongs to what
may be called the educational and
publicity acdount, as, for example,
$69.80 for announcements, sll2 for 6,000
copies of a local paper and postage,
$319.15 for Miles Press Printing Com
pany, $321.60 for postage, $lB5 for maps,
sl2 for cards, and $221 for postage. The
other items are: Assessment, S4O; livery
bills, S4O; clerks, SSO. watchers, $246
hotel bills and traveling, SSO: telephone,
expressage, etc., SSO.
WASHINGTON NOTES.
I The House Committee of Inter-state
(Commerce has disagreed to all the
.Senate amendments to the Hepburn
'bill, and will send it to conference.
"The amendment which gave the
House committee greatest concern waf
that making pipe lines common carri
ers, which the committee thought in
consistent with the amendment pro
hibiting common carriers from produc
| . ing commodities carried by it."
Last week the Senate committee, tak
!ing advantage of the absence of Senatoi
Gorman, whose vote would have madi
it a tie, decided by six to five it
favor of the sea-level canal at Panama
This recommendation is in oppositior
<to the views of the President, Secretarj
Taft. Chief Engineer Stevens, a ma
jority of the American engineers or
the consulting board and a majority o:
the commissioners. It has the authori
ty, however, of a majority of the con
suiting engineers, mcst of the foreigner
having declared for a sea-level water
way. , t %
|' POPE PIUS X. draws the line on wo
| , ttMM politicians. "Women have m
-political ability and wherever they hav<
entered that field they have made them
selves a general nuisance," he said ti
Franlein Thiemer, a leader of th>
feminist movement in Austria. "I di
; not want to disparage tl#s ability o
women." h6 continued, "and womei
should rather consider mv words :
| praise, when I say that they lack th
|fe cool judgment and heartless calculatioi
which must ever be a predominan
trait in the character of the successfn
politician. Feelings are entirely out o
H place in politics, and I believe, than!
God, that the woman without feeling
jp is yet to be discovered."'
The Hepburn liill.
On Friday last, and after nearly tw<
months of continuous debate am
wrangling, the U. S. Senate passed th«
Hepbnrn bill, as amended, by a vote o
71 to 3. The amended bill—some peoplt
think it has been amended-to death
will now go to the House, then to ;
' - Conference Committee, and then to the
President, who mav see fit to veto it
I as it is now a very different afiair from
what he started in to secure two yean
ago.
"Senator Tillman, who, because of
his having charge of the bill, made the
closing speech, said: "But for the work
of Theodore Roosevelt in bringing the
matter to the attention of the country,
we would not have had any bill at all
t It is true that the idea was not his and
> that the demand for the legislation was
[ made in three Democratic platforms:
jj: nevertheless, he seized upon the idea,
and the success of the issue is largely
: due to his advocacy. I can't congratu
late him on his victory, for I think we
I' should have had a better bill." Mr.
Tillman intimated that the bill would
| have been a better one had the Presi
dent not altered his position. He ex
fc pressed the belief that if the bill failed
to give relief it would be because the
people went to sleep, " but disclosures
like those at Philadelphia, last week,
regarding the management of the
Pennsylvania Railroad are liable to
make this Nation "sit up and take
notice." # J
Hailroart Grafting.
How r.iilroad olTlcir.!- b.'cc in? million
aires 011 salarte- of a few ;hou-<and h
-rear, was made plain List week by tbe
investigation by the Interstate Com
merce Commission iuttinj? In Phila
delphia. in accordance with a resolution
adopted bv Congress some time atro.
Several of the officials of the Pennsyl
vania Railroad company acknowledged
to securing cash or stock in the < oa!
companies or both for seeing that the
favored companies were promptly
furnished with an abundant supply Oi
cars for the transportation of their
product.
It was shown that the freiirhf car
service was governed by methods of
bribery nnd corruption; that a.ll adequate
service was given to those of the coal
companies that made gifts of stock or
money to the railroad officials and that
the smaller companies were handicapped
and their business destroyed by ais
crimination against them in the inattej"
of furnishing cars.
The charges of discrimination anil 01
bribery were specific, were supported
by direct testimony and were even, in
some cases, admitted by those against
whom they are preferred. One division
superintendent acknowledged without
reserve and seemingly without con
sciousness of the ignominy of his posi
tion. that he received thousands or
dollars' worth of stock in the shape ot
gifts from seven different coal com
panies desiring special favors. Another
official confesses that he received a
check for s~>o every month from one
coal company, and that he had been
favored with gifts of stock from several
others In yet another instance, the
president of a coal company deposes to
having sent his check for $5,000 to a
railroad superintendent who is alleged
to have insisted upon receiving money
instead of stock. .
One avowal by a railroad official is
the most startling exhibit of the corpo
rate relations toward public policy.
That was the declaration that the
management as a rule declined to
furnish switches to new mines because
the coal production is large enough al
ready. In other words, the railroad
management arrogates to itself the
power to restrict production and forbid
»he development of new industry. If a
Legislature should enact such a law it
would fall under the ban of condemna
tion. If an executive should make an
edict of the sort he would be written
down in history as a stupid despot
But corporate management has reached
the height where it enacts what con
stitutional government dare noV under
take, namely, the limitation of industry
lest the people might get the fuel too
cheaply. , ,
Such a revelation puts before the in
telligent public the question what is t<.
be done. There has been a protest
against "drastic regulation. ' But what
sort of regulation can be so drastic as
forbidding owners of coal lands to de
velop their property is something for
the exponents of corporate ideas to ex
plain.
Vice President Green, in the absence
of Mr. Cassatt, has issued the following
"The recent developments at the hear
ing ib progress by the Inter-State Com
merce Commission in this city in re
spect to the acquisition and ownership
of the stock of coal companies and the
acceptance of gratuities by its employes
are a surprise to the management.
While it is not believed that these have
caused injustice to the public or to the
company, the facts with respect thereto
will be thoroughly investigated and no
ownership or practice calculated in any
manner to affect the full and impartial
duties owed by the company, its officers
and employes, to the public will be
tolerated."
The hearings ware continued yester
day with all the railroad officials ex
cepting President Cassatt. who is in
Europe, subpoenaed.
William A. Glasgow, counsel for the
commission, said that the $.">00,000 in
coal stock, which, it has been testified,
was received by 13 officers of the road,
was only an index of tbe system of
'liw. oioatjrtw said at least a
dozen of the Pennsylvania rcma -uiiicen
had become multi-millionaires.
Shotted a Tiger.
Lewis G. Boyd, formerly of this coun
ty, but lately of Coraopolis, and now
with the Burmali Oil Co., in uppei
India, shot a large tiger, and sent its
skin home. He shot the animal while
on a exploring trip, near Lehgyee, Yua,
about 150 miles northwest of Mandalay.
and had it mounted for a rug. The skin
is of a bright tawny yellow, beautifully
marked with dark transv»rw 'bands,
passing into pure white cn the undti
parts. These bands are continued as
rings on the tail.
NEWS come# from Salt Lake City
that the Mormon church hus sold its
street railway and lighting system to
an American and British corporation
and its steam road to the lake to a local
company, thus retiring from both enter
prises. President Joseph F. Smith says
J business affairs in the home of the Mor
! mon faith no longer require the protec
tion of the church, whose membership
is now thoroughly established and is in
no need of the assistance that was con
sidered necessary in the earlier days.
THE military court that tried Gen.
Stroessel found him guilty. and unless
the findings shall be smothered or the
czar interferes, the defender of the fort
ress of Port Arthur and acclaimed hero
on the Russian side of the disastrous
struggle with Japan, will be dismissed
in disgrace from the army of which he
has been a part and confined for a long
term of years in a fortress as one who
has betrayed his trust The Court also
convicted Rear Admiral Nebogatoff,
who commanded a division of Admiral
Rojesvensky's fleet, and i& S£i,d to have
condemned both to death.
THE construction programme for the
rebuilding of the Russian navy, which
was recently sanctioned by the Czai
and is to be spread over a term of nine
years, would seem to indicate that the
Russians have not themselves drawn
from tbe experience of the late war the
sam« cardinal lessons as Japan and the
other naval powers; for in the list oi
battleships and cruisers wijiefc are to be
laid down there does not appear to le «
single vessel of the type of the ' Dread
nought,'" or ourbwn "Michigan"—thai
'i# to sav, the type of ship in which tin
intermediate battery is abolished ant 1
the main j-Qgsista entirely ol
guns of heavy caliber,
PRESIDENT CASSATT is quoted M
tejljng the story of the manner in whicl
the ffciiwsylvania Railroad Companj
was giving large spe
cial rebates to tue Com
pany. The story is not new, ''
interesting to have it fully confirmed
by the head of the railroad company.
The attempts of the apologists for the
Standard to make it appear that
vast wealth of its chief owners was
made legitimately and that its actions
have been above reproach might as well
cease. Every intelligent person knows
that the methods by which the Standard
succeeded were dishonorable and illegal
and that ft profited at the expense of
the ruin of many of its competitors who
were not given a square deal. The part
the railroads piayed in aiding the
Standard in promoting its own advant
ages was also a most discreditable one.
President Cassatt declares that the
Carnegie Steel Company also received
j large rebates. If so there can be no de
fense for either party to the transaction
Mr, Cassatt declares himself in favor of
late regulation by the Government, and
certainly the facts he relates furnish
sufficient reason for his having come to
such an opinion. That the giving of
rebates, as well as other unfair prac
tices, have been altogether stopped by
the railroads, however, may well be
doubted,—

I'oreHt Fires.
Several cpunties of upper Michigan
ind northeastern Wisconsin, and alonu
:he line of the two states were burned
jver last week by a forest fire, driven
ay a gale. The dispatches came from
Escanaba, Mich., and Marienette, Wis.,
both along Green bay, a part of Lake
Michigan, and tell ot the destruction of
several towns ranging from 200 to lOflC
in population. The district is heavily
wooded, and part of it contains iron ore
leposits. •
Six counties were burned over, and
also parts of foui ethers, or in all about
% hundred square miles of «ea;*ijy wood
ed country.
A
Be inTne burned district describes tlis
situation as appalling. "We were neai
a lumber canaj," h£ says, "There were
nearly 200 persons there. T):e first wt
knew of the danger was the black
L'louds of rolling smoke that suddenly
came down upon us."
"We were miles from a like or
stream, but there were men thorn who
had been thronsh similar fires aud, nn
ier their guidance, every man was set
to work digging trenches in the soft
soil.
"Valuables were buried and when
the danger appeared greatest, the wo
ifcen and children were covered with
earth Th.e tents and canvas sheets
were saturated wi£h v;.'ater and spread
over them. The 05 horso* vsrp turned
loose. Some of them broke away, bnl
the greater number remained about th<
old stables, and this required great
work oft the part of the men to keej
them from tramming on the women anil
children.
"After the flames came, it seemed
but a few minutes when the great for
est beyond was a masjs of fire while be
hind us was nothing hut blackness and
smoke. The sod-covered cabins eseap
ed and'all were safely accounted for
The property loss in this vicinity will
be upwards of $1,000,000. Not a bridge,
railroad or wagon survived the fire."
By Sunday the fire had about burned
itself out.

It Coste
More to
Prepare the Surface
than to do the repainting itself, if the orig
inal paint was not Pure White Lead and
Ture Linseed Oil- This is the only paint
which is elastic enough and tough enough,
in spite of climatic changes, towearsmoothly
and evenly right down to the surface, leav
ing it free and uniform, all ready f>r the
painter to begin his work when repainting
ji finally necessary. '
A paint adulterated with barytes, yellow
ochre, zinc and other substitutes for Pure
White Lead, is inevitably stiff and brittle;
and changes in temperature make it blister,
crack and peel. Long before such paint
has worn away, repainting becomes a ne
cessity, on account of the jnany p.«ccs left
exposed. Yet, before repainting can be
done, the blotchy, uneven surface mi: t be
scraped or burned till the smooth surface of
the wood itself is reached. This requires
much of the painter's valuable time, and is
attended with no little ri=k from fire.
Avoid this expensive process and th*
danger which it always involves, by insist
ing on Pure White Lead in the first place.
Don't leave any loophole; specify the brand:
