The little fogl republic hasn't vet come to “Uncle Bam's” terms, and itis hard to teil just what the outcome of the affair will be. Let us all be patient and wait and see what we shall see. Tae next National Democratic conven- tion will be held in Chicago, June 31st, where they will place a ticket in the field that will be defeated as easy as rolling off a log. But that should in no way dis- courage “the great unterrified,” as they are used to being defeated at Presidential elections. Ar the coming spring elections great care should be exercised to elect’ only ‘{ thoroughly competent election officers. The new: eledtion system goes into effect Match 1st, and as the new system will not be understood thoroughly ut first, we should elect none but the most intelligent men to serve on election boards. ORE of the delegates to the sixteenth anual convention of the United States Potters’ Association, recently held in Chi- cago, gave the following interesting facts in regard to low prices on dishes: “Since the passage of the McKinley bill our goods have been cheaper. For fustance, a» 125-piece dinner set, decorated | mous rose, gold trimmings, sold for $46.70 UNDERTARKERS | in 1878; in 1888 bought for $237; in 1860, $14.20, and in 1892 sells for $12.70. Other things are in proportion.” Tur Putsburgh Post and the Beaver STAR weep together, as Senator Quay has/floored them both and their editors have been convicted of criminal This will probably check the wholesale lying that some papers are wont to in- dulgein for the purpose of injuring promi- nent politiciaus. The Johnstown Tribune inakes the following timely remarks upon I'the outcome of the aforesaid suits: Democratic papers of this state, when they receive anything for publication from their State Chairman or the Demo- cratic Attorney-General, should demand an indemnifying bond of double the amount of the pecuniary loss ($1,000) which they would sustain by publishing crooked things these officials may fur- nish; but how they could make the State dignitaries relieve them of the one-year's imprisonment the law gives the. Judge the option of sentencing them to; we can- not suggest, Prolubly the best way is for Democratic newspapers to suspect that everything the representative Demo- crats furnish them is untrue, and refuse to publish, unless with condemnation. That is the way we do with all from that source, and we never get into trouble. A goon desl having been said from time to time, in the Elk Lick eoal region, as to the rights of the miners, we repro- duce the following sensible article from the Pittsburgh Times, every word of which we most heartily endorse, The superintendent of a colliery at Reynoldsville is under arrest on the charge of intimidating the miners who wanted to put on a chechweighman. The law explicity gives them the right to have one. “It is to be supposed that he has a de: feuse of some sort. Imagine a farmer ar- riving at a country store wilh a load of wheat, the amount of which he can only guess, and imagine the purchaser, when measuring it. refusing to let him see {hat done. | Then imagine what would be thought of such proceeding by persons asks that he have tlie privil ‘the fa libels The coal digger BY has, of knowing fo! himself ing N for what he sells, son for it, mighty good one. His own reputation, in fact, demands that. : The miners’ organization has resolved to assist in the prosecution of the case. which ought to be thorough, because if there is a satisfactory defense to the to know it. Not a few of them sav that the worst competition they have to fac ig that of operators who keep off th check weighmen. Tag following, which we clip from hie Somerset Standard, contains a great desl of common seuse, all of which Tue 81a does most heartily endorse: ; The Anta-Puritan sentiment has bee thoroughly aroused in Allegheny county by the recent attack of the Law and Order agents upon the Sunday newspape The law of 1794 was for several gener tions practically a dead letter apon the statute books, and would no doudt bave so remained but fora few overzealous fanatical fanatics in Allegheny count who have not the capacity to compre hend that social and business conditiog have undergone a radical change in the short space of one century, and th vast majority of the people of this “com monwealth, jealous of their rights and properly restricted freedom, cannot compelled to live under the absurd a degrading laws of a hundred years ag Senator Neeb, of Allegheny cou says the obnoxious law will be re or all the Puritanism extracted fre by amendment by the next Legislatu He introduced a bill at the last sessit for the repeal of the law which pa the Senate by an overwhelming major but failed in the House by one vote. says he will introduce a stwilar bill the next session. But in the men it is thought by some legnl minds thi the State eourts will decide that wha may have been regarded in past sges as a necessity is not so now regarded. There can be no doubt that the liberal public sentiment of the times is over whelmingiy against the law; and that the newspapers, since they are placed defensive, will fuster and stren ishment. ..8o long as the Law and Order Leasue confined their operations to the persecu- tion of pour widows and cripples, w ; were ton weak to “esl them down,” come to believe their power was i ble; but now that they are confronted hy the power of the press their minds liable to be disabused. Tn the menntime may rule the many.” THE SOUTH PEN ROAD. Back. , From the Philadelphia Inquirer. “If anyone thinks we are guing to stam the loss of that South Peun roud he is greatly mistaken,” remarked Cornelius Vanderbilt a short tme ago. “We have day we will build the road and get itout.” The South schisme has cost the Vanderbilt family over $5,000,000. When construction work was stopped in 1885, Willing H. his subscription of $5,000,000. [Iu 1889 partners in the enterprise, paying there. had actually been paid in by them. This took over $2,000.000 more. In all, family has actually expended over $4, 000,000, and if the interests were com- Pennsylvania road would aggregate §5,- 000,000. This is a-large sum even for « ul Vanderbilt. & The unfortunate olitcome of the South Penn’a scheme was one of the distressing ¢rreumstances, that darkened the last days of Franklin B.
