THE trih illations of the new glass
trust in demonstrating the fact that
other trusts, so called, have not the
iron grasp on the country attributed
to them by those who seek to make
the trust question a partisan issue.
Competition cannot be stifled, so
long as there is capital awaiting pro
fitable investment and in natural
competition lies the natural remedy
for trust monopoly. Since the glass
trust organized, planning not to
leave a single competitor in the field,
fifteen independent glass companies
have l)een started and others are now
anizing. And glass is only one

POPX h'Ratic campaign orators who
were industriously parading the fig

paign ot 1896, in support of their

re-election
man Mahon 1ms never faltered in
I his devotion to his constituents. He
has done what other office holders
have not. He has kept his promise
or did not make it. Tiki many pol

such as they never expect to keep.
He is an important figure in the
lower house, a gentleman of Intel-
londing period dfl lwt-"landing and influence, a credit
to the district and an honor to the
state of Pennsylvania.
Mr. Mahon should lie returned to
Congress. It is natural that others
should want his seat in that Ixxly.
Such an ambition is honorable aud
while it should lie encouragetl, able
men with influence and honorable in
their motives should not be side
tracked for the sake of simply grati
fying personal ambition.
Mr. Mahon has had a great many
applicants for iMisitions and as there
were more applicants than he had
positions to give, there were some
disappointments. These he could
not avoid, but that has not unfitted
him for the real duties of a congress
man. II as always Lcvii '

him on various subjects. It has
been a rule of his office to answer

unable to do so. The eighteenth

more judicious thing than to return
Mahon to Congress.

knocks the bottom out of the pro
position to make Bryan and Anli
ezpansion the chief features of the
Democratic campaign of 1900.
THE Convening of Congress and
the bringing together of representa
tive men from all over the country
call forth numerous expressions and
emphasize the fact that things are
different now from what they were
in 18!(8. Numbers of Congressmen
who supported Bryan and silver in
that year, whether trom conviction
or policy, now that the sentiment
among theireonstituents has radical

try's remarkable prosjierity, make no
besiliancy in stating that the reaf

also surcharged them with the sum
of $138.40, moneys paid Hugh C.
Rhine, clerk to the board, for ser
vices rendered by him under the act
of 1807, and for his expenses at the
Commissioners' Convention. The
Auditors claim thit the clerk is not
entitled to extra pay, as they "con
sider he is required to do all such
work by his original contract with
the Commissioners." Dr. I). M.
Crawford & Son's bill for services,
to the extent of $59.00, and M. P.
Crawford's account of $19.85 for
medicines furnished to the jail,
are also surcharged. These charges
amount to $453.95, and must be re

"The greatest jury orator 1 ever lis
tened to in my life was the late Daniel
W. Voorhees," said a well-known New
Orleans lawyer to a Times-Democrat
man. "lie had a jovial presence, a
great, resonant bass voice and a bear
ing so singularly compelling that .1
know of nothing except the trite word
'magnetic' that begins to define its ef
fect. I heard him in a murder trial at
Louisville, and his speech on that oc
casion was prefaced by a most amus
ing Incident which I hare never aeen
In print.
"It waa a very warm day, Bnd the
courtroom was packed to suffocation.
Aa Voorhees arose to begin his argu
ment he cast his eye over the jury and
discovered that one of the members
had fallen aaleep. Frowning, with in
dignation, he motioned to one of the
'court officials, and in a few seconds the
alumberer waa shaken rudely into con
sciousness. He was a fat, timid-look
ing man and was jo mortified and
aghast at the enormity of the offense
that he could hardly find words in
which to reply to the sharp questions
of the judge. Finally he mnnaged to
blurt out that he couldn't help doz
ing off whenever it was warm ond
crowded. 'If the gentleman always
sleeps where it is warm and crowded,'
said Voorhees, majestically, 'the gen
tleman will no doubt enjoy himself
hugely in hades.' There was a ronr of
laughter, but the retort proved rather
costly. The fat man hung the jury
against Voorhees' client."
INDIANS NOT DYING OUT.
Indian nurrau Official Sara Xrat Cen
sus la Llkclr to Show Orer
300,000 ot Tkcsa.
"The Indian is by no means an extinct
portion of civilization," explained an In
dian bureau oflicial to a Washington
Star reporter, "as the coming census
will very clearly demonstrate. Indeed,
instead of running out, the last ten
years will show that he has got almost
as good a hold on life aa the most fa
vored of our people. The poems regret
ting his passing away will have to be
stored for some years. The Indian of
late years has been generally engaged
in minding his own business. He is not
much improved morally from what he
was, but he has not fallen behind to
any noticeable extent. It is a case of
the survival of the fittest, and, while
eventually the Indian will have to go,
he is not gathering up his traps and
getting ready to start as yet. Those
who regard the Indian as a scattered
race, existing in small camps iu the far
west, will be considerably informed
when I can tell them that there is to
day a record of 250,000 Indians in the
western states. There are many kinds
there. The Choctaws number over 15,
000; the Creeks even more; the Scmi
noles about .1,500; the Cherokees about
30,000; Chickasaws about 8,500. There
are over 10,000 Indians in the six na
tions of New York state alone. Tin-. In
dian is still in it, and will be in it for
many years yet, and I would not be
surprised if the coming census will
show that there are over 300,000 of
them."
