THE STATE TREASURERSHIP
Republican Nominee As Viewed By An
Editor From His Homo County.
Tn commenting upon the contest for
stnte treasurer, the editor of the HoliV
daysburg Register says:
"Hon J. Lee Plummer, the Republl- ■
112 can candidate for state treasurer, has 1
■ the ability to fill that office with
credit. This fact cannot be success
| fully contradicted; besides, he is
known by the people with whom ha
has lived all his life to be perfectly
honest and reliable and a man of tb®
strictest integrity. While not a Pro
hibitionist. he is a man of the strictest
temperance habits. These are facta
which cannot be controverted. He was
regularly nominated in a Republicau
; stale convention, composed of dele
! gates who were chosen by the Republic
! cans of the various counties of tho
state.
j "There was every opportunity for
: any mau In the state to contest the
; nomination with him He was nomi
nated fitlrly as the candidate of his
party. Now, what Republican can hava
a valid excuse to vote against him?
Is it better that the Republicans as-
I sist a Democrat into one of the best
i offices of the state, or vote for their
! candidate, who is in every way worthy?
i The opposition' is trying hard to rale.*
a respectable flgbt against him, U»t I
i the only possible show they will have !
i will be through the votes of Repubii- |
cans Why should we aid them in
their work?"
A Word to State Republicans.
j "The Republicau party la not re
sponsible for the misuse that has been
made of It in Philadelphia," says the
editor of the Juniata Herald. "The
truth Is that it deserves credit for cor
recting the wrongs that have been com
mitted by some of its faithless mem
bers The corruption that has existed
In Philadelphia is wholly of a loca:
character and the party in the state has
no connection with or relation to it.
Why should the party elsewhere suffer j
on account of It? Why should state
: candidates be defeated because of what !
! has occurred in a single city? If the ■
sins of a few were to be visited upon j
the party when could It ever be sue- j
eessful? The Republican ticket is com
posed of honest men, was fairly nomi- j
nated and is entitled to the support of J
a very member of the party. De sure j
to vote for it."

SOUTH LONDON.
Sir Walter Besaut GIVM lomt laitrtil*
lof SkttcbN of That Anolont Por
tion of (be City.
Besides being a novelist, Sir Walter
Besant in a historian, particularly the
historian par excellence of London.
For the last few years he has written
| articles on historio London for The
i Pall Mall Magazine. The last series
ito appear were on South London; :
these, like the others, are now present- j
ed in hook form under their original
title and with the elaborate and artistio
illustrations which so enhanced their
value when they were printed in the
magazine. The publishers of "South
London" in this country are Frederick
A. Stokes Company.
"The chief difficulty In writing 'South
London,' " said Sir Walter In his pre
face, "has been that of selection from
the great treasures which have accum
ulated about this strange spot. " The
contents of this volume do not form a
tenth part of what might be written on
the same plan, and still without includ
ing the history proper of the borough."
The author courteously acknowledges
his obligations to tte artist "Mr. Perry
Wadham, who has no faithfully and so
cunningly oarried out the task commit
ted to him."
"My South London," says Sir Walter, j
"extends from Battersea in the west to
Greenwich in the east, and from the
river on the north to the first rising
ground on he south. This rising
ground, a gentle ascent, the beginning
of the Surrey hills, can still be observ
ed on the high roads of the south —
I Clapham, Brixton, Camberwell."
At first London had no communica
tion with the rest of the world, < xcept
by water. Then a causeway was built
across the Southwark marshes. The
second road connected with the high
road to Dover; it is now called lliyh
Street Borough. It formed an entirely
open and broad communication; it be
gan not far to the west of St. Saviour's
Church, opposite the Roman Trajectus.
the mediaeval ferry, now St. \hiry
Overies Dock. Ferries were soon es
tablished across the Thames, and at
length the marshes were drained. Pre
historic remains prove that all this
was done during the stone age and :
the bronze age.
Centuries passed by. "High Street j
of Southwark is now a crowded thor- |
oughfare, because it is the main artery |
of a town containing a population of j
many hundreds of thousands. In the
I last century it was quite as animated, i
because it was one of the main arteries i
by which London was in communica
tion with the country. An immense
number of coaches, carts, wagons,
and 'caravans' passed every day up
and down the High Street, some
stopping or starting in Southwark it
self; some going over London Bridge
to their destination in the city."
Among the relics of the bygone Ages j
stands to-day the remains of the p.Uace i
of the Bishop of Winchester. As one ;
of the Bishops of Winchester would j
have made a very good modern Police \
Court Judge and District Attorney i
combined, it may not be inappropriate j
at this place to tell something about !
the punishments of the litn* That were :
ordered by the church. "There was j
whipping, but not me terrible, mur- i
derous (logging of the eighteenth cen
tury; there were hangings, but not for
everything. Mostly to the credit of
k he church, punishment was designed
I lot to crush a man, but to shame him
j Into repentance and to give him a
I chance of retrieving his character. A
j man might be set in the stocks or put
I in pillory, and so made to feel the liein
j ousness of his oft'e...<e. This punish
i ment was like that which was indicted
! on a schoolboy; the thing done, the boy
jis taken back to favor. The eighteenth
century branded him. imprisoned him,
i transported him, made a brute of him,
| and then hanged him. Did a woman
! speak despitefully of authority—pre
-1 sumptuous quean—set her up in the
! cage beside the stoulpes of London
; Bridge, that every one should see her
! there and should ask what she had
| done. After an hour or two take her
1 down; bid her go home and keep hence
! forth a quiet tongue in her head. This
. leniency was only for offenses moral
i and against the law. For freedom of
i (nought or doctrine there was Bishop
j Bonnet's belter way. And it was a
way inhuman, inflexible, unable to for
j give." |
Sii Walter Besant, In showing how
I the palace either contains or has at
> some time contained the work of nearly
i every archbishop in succession, lnci
j dentally remarks, in speaking of some
' of the improvements executed by the
various prelates, that the Chicheley
; Tower, commonly known as the "Lol
lards' Tower," "never had any connec
tion with Lollards, and that all the talk
about the unhappy prisoners is
without foundation."
Ai.u. in a word, which will explain
why I have given an apparently dispro-
I portionate space to Lambeth Palace,
the auu.;.i thus eaus his chapter on the
royal houses of ?outh London; "Lam
beth Palace, the only palace in the
whole of South London, is a monumeii/
i of English history from the twelfth
j century downward. Kennington ap
-1 pears at intervals; Eltham is a holiday
i house; Greenwich practically begins
with the trdoi-s. Lambeth, like West
minster or St. Paul's belongs to the
long history of the English people."
From the fragmentary "lives" of
Shakespeare we have learned consider
able about ilie Globe Theatre, but in
"South London'' we find a great deal
more, and also much about the Bear
Garden, Blackfiiars, and Paris Garden,
the Hope Theatre, the Swan Theatre,
and the Hose. It is all very interest
ing.
And of the South London of to-day,
there is much that is of interest, much
that is fascinating, albeit the tourist
to London can see it all if he only takea
the troutle.

The tempering of steel with uniform
results is a feat hurdly to be achieved
by the most expert artisan. A German
Inventor had devised a process for ac

depending on the fact that graded re

milk in varying forms and dilutions —
that is. by fresh and aklmmed milk

Mr. F. L. Shaw, manag«r li 1 {J! JL ,1 A jTW JL ij

two buggies from the same house the other day. One cost $ 18.00 more than the other. Then he took the buggies
all apart to see just why one was higher priced than the other. Here is what he found out s
Both buggies had exactly the same teat and back, same size body, same wheels, shafts and everything else, except
that the higher priced one had 14-02. cloth trimmings instead ofKeratol, found in the cheaper ; a leather boot, instead
