with the loss of its 250 inhabitants.
BY the vedi'"t of a jury the Standard
Oil Company, of Ohio, is guilty of con
spiracy against trade, in violation of
the Valentine anti-trust law of Ohio.
The penalty is a fine of from SSO to
$5,000, which may be repeated for each
day of the offense, or imprisonment of
from six to 12 months. The Standard

action yesterday in summoning before
him the 12 men who had passed upon
the case of Edward J. Edwards, select
councilman from the Second ward, and
who last week failed to agree after
being out 58 hours. It is true that the
inquiries which the court made did not
touch npon the question of actual jury
fixing, but were confined to incidents
occuring in the jury room which in
dicated improper conduct and question

It was plain, however, that Judge
Young viewed with humiliation, if not
alarm, the strictures which juries have
called down upon themselves and that
he appreciated the grave injury to* the

abuses complained of are not eliminat

CLEMENCEAU, the new Premier of
France has been quite a figure in the
politics of that country for some years.
"He is bitterly hated and extravagantly
admired. One-half of the French press
attacks him as a dictator, the other as
the saviour of the country. He is
variously described as ambitious, weak,
headstrong, irresolute, vacillating, a
radical of radicals and a moderate.
Predictions of war with Germany, of
civil war and of political revolution are
being made as likely to follow his ac
cession to power. He is a man of
mystery and contradictions, just such
an one as the volatile French people
Jove to go crazy over. Yet there are
points that commend him. He is a
warm admirer of America, having om e
lived here as an exile. He wan a friend
of Dreyfus. He is a strong supporter
of the movement for a better under
standing with England, out of which
Germany is constructing a theory of an
Anglo-French alliance hitched onto the
France-Russian agreement and the
Anglo-Japanese treaty. "
Desire to he Good.
[From the Philadelphia Press.]
The Pittsburg Dispatch has taken the
sentiment of more than 200 candidates
for the Legislature in Western Pennsyl
vania on several questions that will be
prominent at the next session. The
questions asked by our cotemporary
were:
If elected—
Will you vote for repeal of the Grady-
Salus libel bill?
Will you vote for a bill to allow
traction companies to carry freight?
Will you vote for a 2 cent railroad
fare*
Will you help to organize the House
and Senate without the dictation of a
party boes?
Two thirds of all the candidates to
whom these inquiries were sent replied,
and in every instance with nn emphatic
yes. A large proportion of the answers
went beyond this. Scores of candidates
pnt themselves on record as favoring
the nomination of United States Sena
tors by a direct vote of the people ,
promise legislation Jto make effective
the laws against railroad discrimina
tions for the maintenance and improve
ment of the public schools and for the
improvement of township roads This
is the general drift. It is probable had
the inquiry been extended to the whole
State the replies would have been ant
fonnlyofthe same character. Every
body who is a candidate this year is on
his g<cod behavior AII are spending
their days and nights trying to find ont
what the people want, so that they can
act accordingly-and get their vote*.

Destruction Along the Coast.*.
Forty-four light houses were destroy
ed by the late storm, along the Gulf
Coast from Pensacola to the mouths of
the Mississippi: and some more are re
ported destroyed by the storm of last
week, along the Atlantic coast, as were
also a lot of 'honee-boats'' used by the
men who were working on the exten
sion of a Florida railroad to the little
islands to the south of that state. A
dispatch from Key West dated Sunday,
said:
Survivors from one of the house boats
of the Florida East Coast railway ex
tension along the Keys tell a harrowing
tale of death and destruction caused by
the storm ot Thursday.

among other survivors rescued.
says house boat number 4, on which
were 150 men, was struck by the storm
at 5 o'clock Thnrsdav morning and w«-
driven out into the gulf through Hawk ■<
channel
At f> o'clock the houseboat began to
break up and as the great waves hn
her, men. singly and in bunches of two
and three, were washed into the sea
and drowned.
Some went belcw for protection bn,
when the top of the boat was carried
away the waves rushed in and the boat
soon* went to pieces. 80 or 40 of the mt-n

the others grabbing timbers to sava
them from drowning.
Engineer Dusenberry was in the
hold but succeeded in getting a log and
floated until Friday night.
To one piece of timber It) men wct
clinging and nine were hanging to an
other. The sides of the honse boat
were crowded with men. It turned
over three times, each time reducing
the number. .
The steamer Jennie sighted the
wreckage and succeeded in rescuing the
49 men who were brought here. Three
other steamers with searchlights were
picking up men dead and alive when
the Jennie left the scene.
There was another houseboat,
100 men on board at Long Key. which
Mr. Dusenberry thinks was also swept
to sea. There were in all ten boats at
Long Key. mortar mixers, dredges and

The Woman in lilack.
The vsiled weinan, dressed in black,
who attended the funeral of the late
Senator Quay, and the woman who is
suing Peter McCool for desertion, non
snpport and infidelity, are said to be
one and the same person.
A Pittsburg politician is quoted as
saying
"Isaw this woman try to get
the chnrch at Beaver to attend th>;
funeral service, but the police denied
her admission on account of the crowd
ed condition of the building. Later 1
saw her at the cemetery, standing be
side the grave in the rain. She carried
only a light silk umbrella and the rain
seeped through it and down onto her
handsome apparel. I understood sht
had gone to the cemetery after being
denied admission to the church, and sh«

Senator Qaay s secretary, who wa
appointed consul to Munich, turned
and baring his head, shook bands with
her beside the senator's grave. I nevi
knew who she was until a few aayf
ago, when a friend of mine pointed hei
ont on the street, to me, saying that sht
was the woman who claimed to b<
Peter McCool's wife. Then I recogniz
ed her as the woman I had seen in
Beaver."

With the old soldiers, the Nation's

As an employer (and he employs up

STUART SCORES IS
SCHOOL TAX ISll,
Would Further Relieve Local Taxa
tion Burdens From State
Revenues.
IS A POPULAR PROPOSITION
Pennsylvania Has Been Most Liberal
In General Appropriations For Edu
cational Purposes.
The ringing declarations of Edwin
S. Stuart. Republican nominee for Ocr
ernor. in favor of the enactment of
legislation to abolish local taxation for
public school purposes and in favor of
giving greater state aid for the build
ing of gopd roads and for charitable
purposes, have mst with popular favor.
His statement made In Jefferion
county that he is opposed to the car
rying of a large surplus In tho state
treasury has also resulted In expres
sions nf approval in maay quarters.
Candidate Stuart's VIEWS regarding
the school tax are especially pleasing
to the members of the Pennsylvania
State Association for the Abolition of
the School Tax.
Theodore P. Rvnder, secretary of
this organization, says:
"We have an organization extend
ing over the state having for its pur
pose the abolition of the school tax
on real estate thereby relieving espe
cially small farmers and city home
owners of their heaviest tax burden
and establishing the principle that
public revenues must pay for the pub
lic education.
"The organization is known as the
Pennsylvania State Association for the
Abolition of the School Tax.
"It has a large number of clubs in
various sections of the state. It has
the support of some hold-over
tors. It has many candidates finr as
sembly pledged to the measure.
"Candidate Stuart has indorsed It In
at least two public speeches.
"The measure we propose would en
able Pennsylvania to go on with it 3
great system of education and give to
every child within the commonwealth
Its just dues — an education that would
fit it for the battle of life. It would
solve the problem of adequate wages
for teachers and adequate schools for
pupils.
An Abundance of State Revenue.
"The only question ever raised has
been whethor the state has the finan
cial means to do it As briefly as may
be, let me answer that question.
"The total cost for the whole state
of teachers* wages, text books and
supplies for last year was >15,537,020.
"To meet that bill the state now
has a surplus of over $11,250,000,
which by the beginning of the next
fiscal yi-er will reach at least $18,750.-
00f». TV*n 'here can be added to this
the $1.500,0^'0 of annual current In
come. which during the last two years
has been applied to equipping our
new capitol, us well as some addi
tional amounts that went into con
stnietlon. and also the amount here
tofore appropriated for the sinking
fund. This $11,250,000 surplus, plus
15,500,000 regular school appropria
tion. plus $4,500,000 new capit/>l ex
penditures, will give us $21,250,000
with which to pay the $15,537,020 of
tenchf rs' WRKOB, text books and sup
plies, and leave $6,000,000 and all In
terest and additional revenues to be
added to apply to the ordinary ex
penses.
"There are abundant sources of
new revenue juatly used in other
states that 'an be availed of by the
next legislature should any new reve
nue be needed.
"Mr. Stuart's pronounced stand on
this issue will, in the event of his
election, enable the state to take this
groat advance step in public education
and make Pennsylvania the leader in
Intelligence, as she Is in material
prosperity."
What Counties Got Last Year.
While Mr. Stuart is advocating
further relief of local taxation from
the general revenues of the state, h'-
does not overlook the fact tl"t enor
nious sums arc now being paid an
nually from the state treasury to the
several counties for public school pur
poses.
The,records of the state treasury
show that $7,832,350, mainly collected
by the state In taxes from corporations,
was paid to the several counties during
the year 1905.
Pennsylvania Leads the Way.
Pennsylvania has. without question,
tlie best public school system in the
world.
No state in tiie Union appropriates
anything lilce the sum ot money which
Is annually set aside by this common
wealth for the maintenance and de
velopment of the free schools. No
state nialtcs anything like the liberal
provisions made by Pennsylvania for
the education and training of teachers
and the conduct of state normal
schools and township high schools.
The cause of popular education has
ever been fostered by the Republican
party, awl that party has been instru
mental in the passage through the
legislature of laws which have served
to strengthen and to upbuild the mag
nificent free school svstoin which has
been the subiect of universal com
mendation.
The highest amount ev*r appro
priated by the Democratic party for
the public schools of Pennsylvania was
$250.000 p;/r annum, from 18'7 tO
isno.
From that period there ha# bee® a
steady and permanent increase in tha
annual appropriations for public
schools, until in 1905 there was paid
out a total of $8,600,264 for educar
tinual purposes, or over 35 per cent, of
the entire revenue of the common
wealth.
This includes appropriations made
to the support of the soldiers' orphans'
schools, the county superintendents,
the Department of Public Instruction,
and for normal schools and township
high school*.
Ksyr.cte of Taxation Reform.
Mr. Stuart certainly sounded the
Keynote for taxation reform whon he
declared that the timo had como when
the state could accept the policy of
speedily relieving farms and homes
of the state from all taxation for the
support of schools, and ultimately lead
to the relief of farms and homes from
taxation for the support of our chief
highways.
This declaration of the Republican
candidate for Governor 's not a mere
campaign invention.
It Is in coniplete accord with the
policy of the Republican party in
Pennsylvania, that cow assumes a
large portion of the burden of sus
taining the schools, for which we ex
pend many millions annually In state
appropriations, and the last legisla
ture inaugurated the policy of plac'ng
the chief highways of the state under
t tCie car. of the commons ealrh, to be
j improved by direct appropriations
| from the treasury.
Protecting the Farmer.
Not only is this policy of relieving
our farms and homes from taxation
for schools and roads in accord with
the declared policy of the party, bnt
It is founded on the soundest princi
ples of just taxation. Our farms and
home* are less productive to their
owners than any other channel from
which the state draws Its revenues. It
was necessary to tax them for the
support of the state many years ago
when there were few other sources of
revenue, but when the Republican
part* came into power in IS6O, it gave
generous encouragement to capital
and energy to develop our hidden
wealth, ami under that policy, with
corporate enterprises now reaching
into almost every community of the
state, usually realizing profits va6tly
in excess of the' profits of the farms
and homes, every consideration of
justice calls for the gradual and early
release of farms and homes from tho
support oi the schools and the improve
ment of our chief roads.
The Republican imrty inaugurated
that policy a generation ago when t!#
state was yet largely in debt, by re
leasing the farms and homes of the
state from taxation for state purposes,
and has consistently followed that pol
icy by steadily increasing appropria
tions to schools, and thus lessening
local taxation for that purpose, and
now has established the policy of im
proving our highways by direct appro
priations from tho treasury.
Corporations have not only larger
profits, as a rule, than are realized
from farms and homes, but they have
special privileges in their franchises
limiting their liabilities for debts in
case of failure, anil in many other
ways simpiifyir.: their business af
fairs, while the farmer and ail private
citizens are responsible for the last
dollar of debt thy may incur.
Under Republican rule the entire
debt of the state has been paid, with
equal, or quite and possibly more than,
the amount of the principal paid in
interest, as the interest for many
years exceeded two millions of dollars
annually. Thus, we have drawn from
the revenues of the state nearly eighty
millions to liquidate our debt. We
have state asylums for the insane In
every section of the state, with homes
for the helpless, reformatories for vi
cious youth and hospitals founded
chiefly by state appropriations in many
of the inland cities and leading towns
of the commonwealth.
A Proud Republican Record.
The Republican party in Pennsyl
vania has emphasized ihe patriotic
and philanthropic air - of !t.< people
by expending many million* for the
support of . the orphans of soldiers
who gave their lives in the terrible
struggle f< r the maintenance of the
I'nlon and it has made the school
system the grandest and most benefl
cient to be found In any state or
country of toe world.
In addition to vast expenditures In
the r aymt: ' of the public debt. In the
construction of asylums and hon;'s and
hospitals, in the education ;.nd rare of
the orphans of the soldiers, in the ad
vancement of our school system,
which is accepted by all as the grand
est in the country. Pennsylvania und°r
Republican rule has a surplus of many
millions in the treasury; and with all
the extraordinary expenditures pail
and the steady Increase in the reve
nues of the stat<, the time has come
when the Republican candidate for
Governor tan well declare to the peo
ple of the state that the homer, and
farm* shall be sp-ediiy relieved from
taxation for schools and ultimately for
th" construction of our chief nigh
ways.
Every consideration of jnatic» In

Past Present and
Future Paint
The best "past" paint is the
paint which has worn down
evenly, leaving the surface
ready for repainting without
the need of expensive scraping
and "burning-off."
The best "present" paint is
the paint which is applied with
least labor, covers the most sur
face per gallon, and looks the
best when on.
The best "future" paint is
the paint which lasts without
cracking or peeling, affording
perfect protection for the great
est number of years.
Viewed in any of these ways,
