W. DURHAM WIND OUT. (Special Corresponttpnro.) Philadelphia, Nov. 21. —Another evi dence of the fact that the old !\:ai; ; 'i combine, whicn was for years i:; <• trol of public affairs and the Hepubli can organization in this city, is no longer potential was given this w * 1: when a large majority of the lt?p»ih\i ran members of common council unit;.! In signing a pledge to vote for election of George .McCurdy for pres ident of that body. Mr. McCurdy i > a progressive Philadelphian who follows the leadership of Israel \V. rmriia;;*. and who has no time for the i.lartiu outfit. He is a stalwart Republican, has no sympatny with the insurgents, and was one of the most active of the young Republicans who brought abon* the election of Samuel 11. Ashbriu: as mayor. The position of p.-c.ihi,"H of common council is a very intiiientk.l one, and it has long been an asset ia the political combination of which Mar tin was the acknowledged leader. Since Martin has joined hands politically with the Wauainakcr-Flinn-Haeting:* combine instate politics he has he;!:i steadily losing ground in this city. Thj signing of the pledge for Mcuurdy means his success in the Republican caucus, and nothing can prevent hi; election. Having lost the mayor and now lur ing the president of councils, Martiu is practically put out of business. Martin, who became immensely Wealthy through his leadership of ths Republican organization in tills city, is now posing as a statesman. With Flinn. of Allegheny, and Hastings, of Centre, both of whom have also mads big fortunes since they entered poli tics, Martin has tied his political .u~ ture to the Wanamaker personal ad vancement movement, pf which to<? people of Pennsylvania have had sons? experience during the last few years. Wanamakerism has not had a popu lar boom in the Keystone state. But with a determination characteristic of the rich man with political ambitions to satisfy, the warfare upon the Repub lican organization is to be kept tip. HARNETT'S RIG MAJORITY. General Reeder, who as chairman of the Republican committee managed the late contest, was in town this week when the official returns were received from Harrisburg. He was naturally pleased with the figures. Harnett's of ficial plurality was 110.1S8. For the first time in three cam paigns was the Republican target of the insurgent and Democratic guns given a clear majority of all the votes cast at the election. Mr. Heacnm, the candidate for state treasurer in 1897: Colonel Stone, the nominee for governor last year, and Colonel Har nett. the Republican candidate this fall, were each subjected to scandalous assaults from this insurgent cabal. Al though they were all elected, in 1897 Beacom, of all the votes cast at that election, was in the minority by 10,169. Though Colonel Stone won in his fight for the governorship, he lacked 19,303 of having a majority of the votes polled at that election. Rut then, after the insurgents' exhibition of party treachery in bolting the Repub lican caucus on the United States sen atorship in the legislature, and their continued disloyally in opposing the Republican candidate for state treas urer, and espousing the causeof Creasy, a Bryanite, the Republicans of Penn sylvania elected Colonel Barnett state treasurer and gave him a majority of R9,922 over the combined votes of the Democratic, Prohibitionist and Pop ulist and Union Reform party candi dates, with the Insurgent vote for Creasy, Democrat, thrown in. After this emphatic rebuke from the Republican voters the Insurgents, or at least their selfish leaders, who knew only personal politics, set out again to have an organized fight against the Republican organization and with a pui-pose to unite with any party or faction to elect their candidates for the legislature where they are defeated in Republican conventions. SENATOR HOAR'S POSITION. There is nothing in the way of pre cedent in the Quay case that neei. bother any one. If these election case., had invariably been settled on their merits there would be something ii. precedent to follow, but every one knows that as a rule they have not beei. so settled. Seating a senator on merit means that the constitution of the United States shall decide. Senator Hoar, of Massachusetts, i3 absolutely right in his analysis of the constitu tion. Mr. Hoar is a conservative man —altogether 100 conservative, perhaps, to be thoroughly in touch with the ac tivities of modern progress—but he has always been a careful student of the constitution, and there is no great er stickler in all congress ufion con stitutional points. In his opininon the constitution does not contemplate leav ing a seat vacant in the senate. For that reason a governor is given the power to appoint if for any reason whatever a vacancy occurs, the inten tion of the constitution being that the states shall always have their full rep resentation. Mr. Hoar will vote for Colonel Quay as he has voted in simi lar cases heretofore, and if the Quay (asr were to be decided strictly accord; ing to his contraction of the constitu tion there would be no vacancy in Pennsylvania. The trouble has been that in decid ing election cases partisanship has usually controlled. It is either a ques tion of party politics or else some ques tion like silver has divided the votes. The recent cases in the west, from Montana and Washington, were decid ed. not on their merits, but from party policies. There Is nothing in prece dent established only through partisan motives that need cause any trouble for Colonel Quay's friends. |America]s]Ten Greatest! I Dairying' Authorities onl 1 Cream I B The Wisconsin Agricultural Experiment Station. MADISON, WIS., July 13,1897. In conducting our Dairy School, we have had occasion to use the various sizes of Improved U. S. Separators for dairy instruction during several winters past. Our students have always been pleased with the operation of these Separators. and we find that they skim the milk very clean indeed from fat, and that they are generally verv satisfactory. VV. A. HENRY, Dean College of Agriculture. M Cornell University Experiment Station. ITHACA, N. Y., November 75, 1897. We have used the U. S. Separators for the past four or live- years, and have found them at all times efficient and reliable. They are easily cleaned and kept in order, and can be depended upon for satisfactory work. 11. H. WING, Prof. Dairy Husbandry. Massachusetts Agricultural College. AMHERST, MASS.,JuIy 7, JSO7. Wo regard the Improved United States Separator as one of the verv best all round machines. In cleanness of skimming it surpassed all the others. It compares favorably with the rest in capacity. Our man calls it the smoothest running machine we have, although it has been in use nearly three years—a gooil comment on its wearing qualities. F. S. COOLIS\ , Prof. 01 Ag't. Michigan Experiment Station. Af»r 1 cultural COLLEGE, MICIL, Jan. 27,1897. Your No. ;; Separator was received, set up, and has been operated daily since the 4th of January. Each of our dairy boys has now had a turn at it, setting it ■H up, running it, washing it, and testing the skim-milk. They all like the machine, on account of its easy running and simplicity. We are running through milk 12 to 24 hours old, warmed to over So-and usually about 90 degrees. The per cent, of fat in the skim-milk, so far as reported, will not reach on the average a tenth of a per cent., and often is too small to read, in the skim-milk bottle. We are pleased with the machine in everv possible way, as far as we have been able to observe it in a month's use. m CLINTON* 1). SMITH, Director Michigan Experiment Station.

Un'IVFRSITV of VMRMONT AND STATE AGRICULTURAL COLLEGE, I HURLINGTON, VT„ June 25. 1597. 112 It has been the uniform custom of tho officers of the Vermont Station to decline to issue letters of a testimonial nature. I may say, however, that lean and do refer parties inquiring regarding the merits of the Improved United States Separators to the records of the running of the same as published in our report for 1894. ('She tests referred to are as follows): Aug. 14 0.05 Aug. ig.,....0.06 16 0.05 0.05 The results obtained by the use of these machines at our Dairy Schools of the past two vearsare full better, so far as the character of the skimming is con- cerned, than those given in the report. JOSEPH L. HILLS (Director Vt. Kxperiment Station), lowa Experiment Station. AMES, IOWA, Jan. iSq*. Your two machines have been hero in use for some time and are doing excellent work. We have succeeded in skimming over 2,600 pounds per hour, and as close as 0.07 of one per cent, of fat left in skim-milk, with the larger machine. This we consider excellent work for the winter. The small machine also does good I work. G. L. McKAY, State Dairy Instructor, lowa Ag'l College. Again in June; lowa Experiment Station. . AMES, IOWA, Juno 2?, Your large size factory machine lias been doing excellent work. We have used it six days per week for the past two months, and it skims to a trace right along, skimming to pounds per hour. G. L. McKAY, State Dairy Instructor. ■ Ohio State University. COLUMBUS, OHIO. June 25,1807. Enclosed you will find statement of the several runs made with your various Separators. I (Tests from the runs referred to show the following): January 15 0.02 February 2 0.00 February 15 0.02 18 tests show not over 0.05 of one per cent, of fat. M Of course, you will understand that these runs were made by students who at beginning had no knowledge of separator work. The same efficiency can hardly be expected under such circumstances as where operated by an expert. THOMAS F. HUNT (Professor of Agriculture). Idaho Experiment Station. Moscow, 11» A 11«-.
