In a clash between striking mine workers an A deputies here last night, Patrick tiharp. a striker, of l.ansfora, was shot and killed almost instantly by a (teimty. The shifting caused consid erable exiLcincut fur a time, but or der was soon restored without any other persons being injured. A deputy named Harry .YcICluoyle. was arrested, cl.avged with the killing of Sharp, and was taken to the county jail at Mauch Chunk. The shooting occurred shortly after i o'clock. Five deputies were on their hS to Shalt No. 1 of the Lehigh Coal ami Navigation Company, just outside )i the town, lu the center of the town thev were tii'-t by a number r( strik ers, who be;;an persuading thein not to go to the toiliery. The officers did not stop, but kept on their way and tried to prevent any trouble. The HtriUrs, It is said, then bc,-an to abuse the men and followed them nearly up to the colliery. Tnere are conflicting Kti tries as to what actually brought on the clash, but just before the deputies entered the place a shot was hec.rd and Sharp dropped to the ground. The bullet entered Ms body close to his heart, and he died almost Instantly. Witnesses say that the Khontrrg wns done by MclClmo) le, and that lie stood only six or seven feet Irom ShtTp whin he tired his revol ver. Only one shot was fired. The di'i -Mies iin::i"diiitely withdrew to the c lliery and a lar;e crowd sralhcrci r limit the place.

Another version of the encounter say that Sharp and three friends met the party of five deputies, who were or. their way to work, and that Sli-r;) walked up o one of the men, presum ably McClmoyle, a!ld htm an "unfair worker." and told him that he would "be more of a man if he did not wear a Mar."

TO ATTACK THE TARIFF, - Democrats Plan to Assail the Na tional Prosperity. PENNSYLVANIA MUST BE FIRM Bryan In High Glee Over th Pro . pect What Protection Hat Done For Pennsylvania's Industrial, Aa Shown By Official Figures. (From a Special Correspondent) Washington, D. C. Aug. 19. If ever there was. a time when Pennsylvania needed to renew her loyalty to Re publicanism and the doctrine of pro tection, which has made her great among the states, this fall la that time. A Democratic victory In Pennsylvania in November would be the greatest boon that the Democratic party has known since Qrover Cleveland crossed the threshold of the White House out ward for the last time. There is no concealment of the fact that the Democrata In the next Con gress hope to renew the free-trade agi tation with the aid of a small element in the ranks of the Republican party from tbe west. ' William Jennings Bryan, the apostle of Financial Ruin, is publicly congratulating his party, tossing his hat In air, over the Iowa Republican platform, which declared in favor of "such changes in the tariff from time to time as may become ad visable through the progress of our industries and their changing relations to the commerce of the world." This much is seized upon with an hurrah by llryan, who, in an Interview, declares: "I am glad to see that the Republi cans of Iowa admit the necessity for tariff reform, for, while it will strengh en the Republican party in this state for the coming campaign, it will ulti mately weaken it, for the Republicans cannot permit any reform in the tariff without endangering their whole sys tem." The situation so far as the tariff Is concerned is creating more comment here In Washington than any other subject. Experience has taught that the slightest attempt of Democrats to tinker with the tariff has brought dis aster to American Industries and lower wages or idleness to American work men. No state has had such a bitter lesson in this as Pennsylvania, and the question is, will she encourage this at tack on her unexampled prosperity by electing Mr. Pattlson governor, and at the same time increasing her Demo cratic, representation in congress? If the hope of the Democracy can be achieved the soup-house era will again come to Pennsylvania; her mills and factories will be closed and the output of her furnaces restricted. This is no idle assertion. Official figures prove it Pennsylvania Is the banner Btate for iron, steel and textiles.' It Is these industries, employing the great bulk of her people, that will be most af fected by the proposed Democratic on slaught on the tariff. Now, what do the official figures show? In 1896, when Grover Cleve land left the White House, there were just 159 Iron furnaces In blast In 1901, under. Republican administration, there were 200 In blast In that same period the manufacture of tin plate had grown ftom 40,000,000 pounds to 678,000,000 pounds, while the number of wage earners employed had increased from 4,251,613 to 6,231,687. The same ratio of increase can be shown in the increase of farm values under Republican administration. The value of the live stock on the farms of the I'nited States, according to the reports of the Agricultural Department here, has Increased $253,128,031. And with this increased value has come increased consumption, with greatly in i leased prices to the farmer for his product. The farmers of the country icalized in the year 1900 alone, $350, tiOO.oiio more for their ccareals than they did In 1890, the last disastrous year of Democratic control. It Is the popular thing when dlscus hing tariff revision and its relation to Pennsylvania politics for Democrats to exclaim: "Put what has that got to do with stale issues?" It is the only way that a Democrat can get out of a corner, and the an swer is: "Everything." There is one point that Republicans must not lose sight of, and it is that in addition to a governor, there are congressmen and a United States sen ntor to be chosen as a result of this fall's election. These congressmen and this senator will have all to do in hold ing the balance of power in favor of non-interefrence with the tariff. . In deed, they may prove to bo the salva tion of the entire protective system of this country. Is it any wonder that widespread interest is felt In the result In Pennsylvania? In recent years the old saying that, "as Maine goes so goes the Union," .has been transposed to read, "as Pennsyl vania goes so goes the Union." This saying is prophetic. In 18S2 Robert E. Pattlson was elected governor, and two years later Grover Cleveland was elect id president. In 1890 Robert E. Pattl son, Democrat, was again elected gov ernor, and two years later Grover I Cleveland was for a second time in stalled in the White House. The train of evils that followed this later event are too fresh and painful to require repetition. What Pennsyl vania suffered in those years is -beyond computation. Here and there official figures convey some Idea of the dam age that Democratic rule wrought to Pennsylvania end what a blessing T- publican administration In the White House has been. In 189S, when the state v.xa Jujt gathering Itself together from the in dustrial depression occasioned by Dem ocratic mis-rule, there were 134,790 per sons employed in 830 establishments, representing 89 Industries. In the year 1900, after two years of Republican rule, in these same 630 establishments there were employed 190,024 persons, who were receiving 61 per cent more wages than they did in 1896. In other words, while $51,293,561 were paid for wages in these establishments in Penn ey lvania In 1896, in 1900 the amount of wages paid was $82,913,073. This prosperity has been going on steadily today in every county in the Btate. Under the circumstances, do the people of Pennsylvania want to return to the old Democratic system? Will they Join hands with William J. Bry an, Robert E. Pattison and other free sliver monomaniacs, who, now that their crazy financial policies have been discredited, are turning their attention to a scheme to wreck our protective system? I think not. They will stand by Roosevelt and the tariff and elect Pennypacker and a Republican con gressional delegation. HEDESEimimiSON Democratic Committeeman Declares For Pennypacker. DEMOCRATS CAN'T BE TRUSTED Former Assistant Collector of Phila delphia Charles Henry Jones Re fuses to Serve On Pattison's Com mittee. (From Our Own Correspondent.) Phialedphia, Aug. 18. Charles Henry Jones, who was assistant collector of the port under Cleveland, a prominent Democrat and a member of the Phila delphia bar, has publicly declined to become a member of Robert E. Patti son's Democratic campaign committee. In his letter, which pays that the Dem ocratic party cannot be trusted, and in which he declares for Judge Penny packer for governor, Mr. Jones says: REFUSES TO AID PATTISON. "I am In receipt of your letter In forming me that I have been named a member of the citizens' committee to aid the campaign for the election of Hon. Robert E. Pattison for governor. I highly appreciate this honor and re gret very much that I am unable to accept the position; but as I am not in accord with the present policy of the Democratic party upon the important question of money and expansion, 1 cannot advocate the election of its candidates for office. "Sound money and expansion have always been, until the present time, fundamental doctrine of tne Democrat ic party. Florida and the whole coun try lying between the Mississippi river and the Pacific ocean, including the Louisiana purchase, the annexation of Texas, the Gadsden purchase and that vast extent of territory ceded to the United States as the result of the Mex ican war, were all acquired under Dem ocratic administration of the govern ment, when the party was a united and powerful organization. This policy ad ded to the country more than two thirds of its present area. "The territory acquired under it now comprises twenty states, and Is the seat of more than one-fourth of the population of the country. To this expansion Is largely due our present greatness and prosperity, and the Dem ocratic party is entitled to credit for the great benefits that have resulted to the country from this wise policy in the past. EXPANSION IS NECESSARY. "I can seen no distinction i i princi ple because the results of tlv Spanish war, which have been of so incalcula ble benefit to the country, both at home and abroad, have carried this doctrine. In the nntural course of events, beyond the seas. It has cer tainly added greatly to the power and Importance of the country as a member of the family of nations, and as wo are a commercial people the value of this cannot be over estimated. "As one of the great powers of the world we must avail ourselves of every advantage that will enablo us to per form our duties as such, and to sus tain ourselves in our relations with for eign powers. This certainly cannot be accomplished if we retire within our own borders and confine ourselves- to our own domestic affairs while the oth er great powers are pursuing a different policy. DEMOCRATIC HYPOCRICY. "That the Democratic party favored expansion beyond the main land is shown by Its record upon the question of the acquisition of Cuba, which was always favored by the party, and strongly advocated during the adminis trations of Pierce and Buchanan. I do not consider the fact that the Republi can party happened to be in power at the time the country entered upon this great epoch in Its history justifies the Democratic party in changing its his torical attitude upon this great ques tion. "Its hostility to this policy has been carried so far that upon one occasion In the house the party voted as a unit, with one marked exception, against ap propriating the small sum of $500,000 to build shelter for our troops in the Philippines. CAN'T TRUST DEMOCRATS. "I have followed the course of the Democratic party In' congress with much Interest, and am constrained to say that. In my judgment, it would not he for the best interests of the country to put It In control of that body at the present time, and, so believing, I find myself unable to support its candi dates.

I I United States from Pennsylvania and of members of the lower house of con gress will be largely Influenced at the coming election by the attitude of the voters toward the head of the ticket.

"Questions of state administration will be subordinated.
