COMMUNICATIONS.
Al. communications sent to the AMKRI
CAN for publication must be signed by
tlie writer, and communications not so
signed will be rejected.
A couple of campaigners who at a
loss for material that would disparage
the Republican candidate for Congress
iu the eyes of the average voter on a
recent trip to Danville concocted a
story to the effect that he paid his
puddlers but 4.25 per ton when the
facts in the case are that Mr. Fred A.
Godcharles was the first employer in
Milton to advance his men to 14.50
per ton—which was immediately after
being notified by the management of
the Reading Iron Co., that they pro
posed to do likewise. Those same
politicians promulgated , among other
untruths, the story Mr. Godharles
was narrow in his religious views
and that he heeded not the support of
certain congregations and sets to se
cure his election which carries "LIE"
on the front, back and sides of the
statement, in fact we have not in this
district a more liberal minded man
than Mr. Godcharles who scatters his
favors with a free hand to Presbyter,
ian, Methodist, Catholic, Baptist, or
any other denomination— asking no
questous, but giving to one as liberal
ly as to tho other— knowiug full well
that contributions to all are well
used. The fact is both Mr. Godchar
les aud Mr. Dickermau attend divine
worship in tho Presbyterian church
and occupy pews but a few feet apart
on the same section of the church and
auy such silly and so palpably untrue
story could be contradicted by Mr.
Dickermau himself— who we have
uo doubt would gladly avail nimself
of the opportunity.
AN INTERESTING CAREER.
William K. Lord, of Mt. Carmel,
who has been nominated by he Repub
licaus of the Sixteenth district to fill
the unexpired term of the late Rufus
Polk, in Congress, stands more mark
edly than auy other man in this dis
trict, perhaps, for the rise of the
working man. Born iu Schuylkill
county thirty-eight years ago,his early
life was spent between the coal break
ers, where as a slate picker he began
to learn the value of a hard earned
dollar and the public schools where
he gathered permanently that sort of
lasting educatiou which has made a
success of so many lowly-horn Amer
icans.
Ever since those days he has been
cilmbing. He moved up the ranks of
colliery hands until ho became clerk.
Then he opened in Mt. «Carmel, a
small store which litis grown today to
bo the leading house of the town,
while its owner takes his seat at the
directors table of the Guarantee Trust
Company and is preseut at tho meet
ings of the Board of Trade.
Mr. Lord is a man of.more than the
usual intellectual power. He is an
ouiuiverous reader, a forcible and
ready speaker and goes to his new woi k
thoroughly well versed in the past do
ings and future plans of the national
Congress.
DEMOCRATIC) OR REPUBLICAN.
A democratic mass meeting was i
held iu Trevorton last evening. Some !
speeches were made and some whoop- j
iug for the ticket was done.
Rut the most significant thing that !
was done was the endorsement of i
Hon. Fred A. Godcharles for Congres. j
Mr. Godoharles is not to he on the J
ticket usually voted by these citizens
but they know a man who will work J
iu their interests when they see him, i
aud they have seen Mr. Godcharles in
the state legislature and he was not
found skulking out of his duty there. ,
Now it can be confidently predicted
that he will do his duty if placed in a
higher position where there is greater j
opportunity for good work for the i
interests of our people.—Mt. Carmel

AMI THE SOU®
Why Grand Army Men Are Oppos
ing His Election.
HIS VETO OF THE BURIAL BILL
He Was Willing That Honorably Dis
charged Soldiers and Sailors Should
Be Burled In the Potter's Field.
Only Nineteen Democrats Endorsed
His Course.
Harrisburg, Pa., Sept. 30. Hon.
Robert E. Pattison, Democratic can
didate for governor, lives in a glass
house and should therefore avoid
throwing stones. He is an official
with a political and a partisan past.
It is for this reason that almost to
a man tho members of the Grand
Army of Pennsylvania aro opposing
his candidacy. They can never forget
some of his actions when he was gov
ernor.
In 1885 the legislature passed a bill
whose object it was to prevent hon
orably discharged soldiers and sail
ors from being buried in a pauper's
grave. Governor Pattison vetoed it.
He wrote a veto message that will live
in the memory of the old soldiers as
long as they live. To the credit of
house and senate they passed this bill
over the governor's veto. Only 19
Democrats dared to stand by their
governor. The bill, House Bill No. 10,
was entitled: j
TO BURY THE SOLDIER HEROES.
"An act authorizing and requiring
the county commissioners of each
county in the state to appoint a stiffi*
i eient number of suitable persons in
each township or ward of their county,
at the expense of the county, to look
after, bury and provide a headstone
for the body of any honorably dis
charged soldier, sailor or marine who
served In the army or navy of the
tJnlted States during the late rebellion
or any preceding war. and shall here
after die In their county leaving in
sufficient means to defray the neces
sary burial expenses."
Governor Pattison, then in the ex
ecutive chair, wrote this veto mes
sage :
"Harrisburg. May 8, 1885.
"To the House of Representatives of
the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania:
"Gentlemen—l herewith return,
without ray signature, House Bill No.
10, entitled 'An act authorizing and
requiring the county commissioners of
each county in the state to appoint a
sufficient number of suitable persons
in each township and ward of their
county, at the expense of the county,
to look after, bury and provide a head
stone for the body of any honorably
discharged soldier, sailor or marine
served in the army or navy of the
United States during the late rebel
yon or any preceding war, and shall
die in their county leaving
insufficient means to defray the neces
sary burial expenses.'
"The bill requires the commissioners
of every county in the state to ap
point in every ward and township in
their respective counties such number
of persons as they shall deem 'suffi
cient,' who shall hold their offices dur
ing the pleasure of the commissioners,
and be charged with the following du
ties: To 'look after and cause to be
buried In a decent and respectable
manner, in any cemetery or burial
ground within the state, other than
those used exclusively for the burial
of the pauper dead,' the bodies of
honorably discharged soldiers, sailors
or marines who served in the army or
navy of the United States in the late
rebellion or any preceding war, and
who may die leaving insufficient
means to pay for their burial. For
the cost of every such burial, to the
amount of $35, the county commis
sioners are required to draw warrants
upon the treasury of the county.' Af
ter such burial, the commissioners aro
required to erect over every such
grave a headstone of such design and
material as they think proper, in
scribed with the name of the person
and the organization in which he
served; and for the payment the ex
pense of every such headstone the
commissioners are authorized to draw
a warrant to the amount of sls, which
'shall be paid out of the funds of tho
county In which said soldier, sailor or
marine died."
"This bill is a remarkable exhibi
tion of the unwarranted and prepos
terous extent to which a most lauda
ble and patriotic sentiment may be
carried. That principle which induces
governments to pension and provide
for injured and destitute soldiers, is
founded in wise policy as well as dic
tated by the spirit of a liberal human
ity. The United States and our own
commonwealth have carried this prin
ciple into their laws with no niggardly
hand.
DONE ENOUGH FOR THE SOLDIERS
"Thoughtful patriots have not hesi
tated to say that all has been done in
this direction that the most generous
and grateful of governments ought to
Jo consistently with common prudence
and wise public policy, and that the
limit has been reached beyonil which
liberality will become extravagance
and benevolence breed abuse. The bill
herewith returned is a striking proof
of the justice of such warnings, and
an illustration of the thoughtlessness
and crudity that may characterize leg
islation enacted under the pressure of
misguided charity. By this bill, auy
man who fought in tbe Tinjted States
jtyrtpy In any war, and who dies in any
fcOuuty of state without leaving suf
flcjtjnl nfaans for his burial. Immedi
ately becomes a charge upon the county
for his burial to the amount of fifty
dollars. He may never have had a
residence In the county; he may c ven
never have been a citizen of the state;
|e may not have been wounded, or be
come diseased or disabled in the pub
lie service; he may die as the result
of his vices or his crimes, by accident
or by his own hand; he may have en
joyed and wasted the bounty of the ;
Federal government or the state for \
years; he may die in the perpetration
of a felony, or be a criminal fleeing the j
justice of another jurisdiction; but no |
matter who he is or what he has been, j
If he served in the army or navy of the
United States in any war and dies des
titute in any county, that county must
bury him at an expense of thirty-five
dollars, and erect a headstone over his
grave at a cost of fifteen dollars

Into Philadelphia and die there; or one
from the state of New York may wan
der into and die In any county on our
northern border, and In each case the
county In which the soldier dies be
comes liable for an expenditure of fifty
dollars for his burial. And so of des
titute soldiers coming into our com
monwealth from any other state, no
matter how they come or what caused
their destitution, so that they get into
our state and die here, this bill operates
to charge the counties which may be so
unfortunate as to be the places of their
death with the cost of their burial.
Could any bill be more void of intel
ligent principle or based upon so little
reason? No guard of any kind is pro
vided to protect the counties from im
position, ami no account whatever is
taken of any of the many circumstances
that in the most liberal pension laws
that were ever enacted are always made
an indispensable condition for the en
joyment of their bounty.
OUTSIDE SOLDIERS AS OUTCASTS
"It is impossible to conceive of any
reason why a soldier who was never
credited to Pennsylvania; who never
reflected any honor upon her arms;
who never contributed by industry,
citizenship or otherwise to her pros
perity, should by the mere accident of
death within her borders be entitled,
no matter what his character of life
may have been, to the burial this bill
provides at the expense of one of the
counties. The lowly citizen of our
state, who, though not a soldier, has
spent all his life within our common
wealth, supporting her institutions and
dignifying her reputation by virtue,
sobriety and industry, and who through
misfortune dies a pauper, can claim no
such privilege as this bill gives indis
criminately to strangers of whatever
character. He must receive a pauper's
burial. It Is quite po iblc to conceive,
if this bill should bee on.e a law, that
neighboring states mi' a rapidly be
relieved of much of their unproductive
soldier population to the marked in
crease of that class in our own state.
"The machinery provided by the bill
for carrying out its provisions also calls
for notice. It authorizes and makes
it the duty of the county commission
ers to appoint an indefinite number of
persons In every ward and township
of the state, who are to be the officers
having in charge the burials in their
respective wards and townships. This
means the creation of many hundreds
—possibly thousands—of officials; and
while the bill provides that they shall
serve without compensation, yet ex
perience shows that official duties in
variably entail official expense, and It
is not probable that these functionaries
would be an exception to the rule.
Apart from this, however, it Is always
an objection when legislation creates
an undue number of officers, which this
bill undoubtedly does.
"It may well be questioned, also,
whether the provisions of this measure
fall within the scope of the legislative
power. It will be observed that It does
not appropriate the money of the state,
but attempts to direct the bounty of
the counties. It commands that cer
tain political sub-divisions of the state
shall perform certain charitable acts —
not generally, as in establishing a poor
house or the like, which is an exercise
of the general police power of the state,
but specially. In a special manner, with
reference to a special class and at a
special definite cost. Without now de
ciding the question, the executive
would suggest that the bill requires
considerable stretch of legislative pow
er to justify its principle.
"ROBT E PATTISON."
As stated above, out of the 250 mem
bers of the house and senate, only 19
of them dar«d to follow their Demo
cratlc governor in upholding his at
tack on the Civil War veterans.
Hon. Robert E. Pattison is today
asking the suffrages of Union soldiers.
Can they forget this action and the
above veto message?

SHOOTING SQUIRRELS
OUT OP SEASON.
The attention of some of oar spcrts
men has been (tallerl to the fact that
the game law is being violated by the
shooting of grey squirrels, which <lo
not come into season until October
loth. The red squirrel is not protected
by the game law and while hunting
for these, it is charged the hunters
miss no opportunity to bag a grey
squirrel when one presents itself. In
this way a number have been illegally
slaughtered.
It should hardly he necessary at this
time to print any of the provisions of
the game law, but it would be well
for all parties to remember that there
is a heavy penalty attached to the kill
ing of grey, black or fox .squirrels out
of season. The offender is liable to
ten dollars fine for each and every
squirrel taken or killed or iinpiison
ment in the county jail for a period
of one day for each dollar of penalty
imposed.
Squirrels, it is said, will be very
plentiful this season. Pheasants have
not been soen in very great numbers,
but quail abound almost everj where.
Many of these are said to be small,
and what is more remarkable and
quite uuheard of among sportsmen is
the fact that some of the quail are still
hatching.

of Philadelphia have issued an unusual

addressed to the Farmers and Dairy

lows:
"We, the undersigned dealers in pure

it would have become a law, with Its
many desirable feat ures, If Senator
Penrose had not labored so earnestly
in its behalf.
"Wealthy oleomargarine dealers and
manufacturers, from various sections
of the United States co-operating with
other powerful interests, worked with
unceasing zeal to defeat this measure
and thereby seriously cripple the great
dairy interests, but on account of the
unswerving fidelity of Senator Penrose
to the fanners and dairymen, theii
efforts were rendered unsuccessful.
"In view of this we would respect
fully urge all farmers and dairymen to
advocate the election of members of
the senate and house of representa
tives in Pennsylvania who will support
for re-election to the United States
Senate, the Hon. lioies Penrose, of
Philadelphia. Pa."
This circular is signed by W. R
Bryce At Co., 23 South Water street,
Bickel & Miller, 322 South Front street
and twelve other of the largest whole
sale butter merchants and firms in the
city.
PATTISON OPPOSED BY LABOR
Tinplate Workers Urge Wage Earners
to Oppose His Election as Governor.
At the recent tin plate conference
of the Amalgamated Association the
following resolutions were passed:
"Whereas, R. E. l'attison has becu
selected as one of the candidates foi
governor of this great commonwealth;
and
"Whereas, It Is well known to organ
ized labor that said R. E. Pattison is a
most bitter enemy of organized lalior as
was evidenced by his action during his
last administration bv his vetoing Sen
ate bill No. 19, session of 1885, provid
ing for a better protection of wages of
labor and providing for a better system
of collection, and his vetoing House bill
No. G2IJ. securing to mechanics and la
borers the right to file liens on real es
tate for wages due.
"Also by sending troops to Home
stead <luring '.he strike of 1892. after
he had promised a committee of the
workmen that no troops would tie sent
there in view of the fact that Adjutant
General Greenland had reported that
peace prevailed and that the presence
of troops was not necessary for the pre
servation of order; and
"Whereas, It was stated to a com
mittee of citizens of Homestead by
General Sr.owden, the representative
of Governor Pattison, that 'the mills
are open, and any one who the com
pany permits to enter to work will be
protected by the troops.'
"Therefore, in view of all these facts,
it is resolved by the members of the
conference committee and the other
members of the Amalgamated Associa
tion of Iron, Steel and Tin Workers,
that we do condemn unqualifiedly and
without reserve, the action of former
Governor R. E. Pattison, and we recom
mend that all union men vote and use
their influence to defeat this enemy of
organized labor."
The Road to Anarchy.
One of the most dangerous tenden
cies of modern American life, appar
ently becoming every day more preva
lent, Is the disposition wantonly and
recklessly to apeak 111 of those who are
charged with the performance of public
duties. Instead of the respect which
in the days of our fathers was exhib
ited toward those selected by the peo
ple for office, it is the habit of our time
to offer them only abuse. If we ever
succeed in entirely destroying the con
fidence of the people in those who ad
minister the government we shall have
reached the time when the government
itself is ready to perish. It is a kind
of slander which is closely akin to
treason and leads directly 011 the road
to anarchy and the overthrow of our
cherished institutions. It is the breed
ing ground where grow the sentiments
and impulses of creatures like Gulteau
and Czolgosz.—From Judge Penny
packer's Erie speech.
