BENATOR MATTHEW STANLEY QUAY, who died at his home in Beaver, Pa., Saturday afternoon, May 29th, 1904, was 8 most remarkable man. ‘He was easily the greatest politician that ever lived. He made politics his special oc- cupdtion and study for 50 years, and the instances are few indeed wherein his plans failed to work out his desires. While his methods were not always to be commended, yet there was much in the man to admire, and as a useful representative of his state in the United States Senate, Pennsylvania never had a more able and energetic champion. THE latest move in labor circles isa nomination paper for signatures for an independent laboring men’s ticket. It is being pretty generally signed by malcontents and other people that never know just what they want, and wouldn’t know how to get it if they did. The paper will be signed by lots of people who will vote as they always voted, and that’s where lots of them will show their good sense in the end. These little independent flurries are usually gotten up by a few disgruntled soreheads who couldn’t for their life show one single benefit that would come to their dupes and benighted fol- lowers, even should they succeed at the polls. We are informed by a good union miner that the new political movement is fathered by some of the organization leaders, and he thinks that it is about time for sensible men to cut loose from the organization if it is to be turned into a political society. “Neither of the old political parties are responsible for our present strike troubles,” added our informant, “but a lot of fool leaders and organizers are.” The strike has been badly managed, he said, and if Daniel Young were living yet,it would have ended long ago. “The new political movement is su- preme idiocy,” he said, “and it will amount to nothing.” He then contin- ued as follows: “The strike is lost and the union is lost with it, so far as this region is concerned. Daniel Young once said that when politics is permit- ted to enter a local union, that local union’s doom is sealed, and I feel sure that he was right. Our leaders are now grasping at the last straws, and to tell the truth I have no tears to shed. as all decent men are disgusted with the way some of our local unions have been conducted. I bardly know whether the leaders of the new politi- cal movement will favor the nomina- tion of Edgar Showalter, Wm. Coch- rane, Ed Swartzwelder or C. L. Walker for President of the United States, and \ Salisbury Hack lane, SCHRAMM BROS, Proprietors. HOW TO MAKE MONEY.

Fresh testimony in great quantity is constantly coming in declaring Dr. King’s New Discovery for Consumption Coughs and Colds to be unequaled. A recent expression from T. J. McFar- land, Bentorville, Va., serves as exam- ple. He writes: “I had Bronchitis for three years and doctored all the time without being benefited. Then I began taking Dr. King’s New Discovery, and a few bottles wholly cured me. Equally effective in curing all Lung and Throat troubles, Consumption, Pneumonia and Grip. Guaranteed by E. H.

While it is plain to all reasonable men in this coal region, and openly ad- mitted by most of them that the last strike is a thing of the past, THE STAR has at no time contended that all the strikers are bad men, or that all the strike breakers are good men. There are good and bad among both classes, and there are some in each class that are disposed to create trouble. The laws and constitution of our country afford protection to all men, and a man in this country has a right to work at whatever rate of wages he is willing to work for. Men have a right to strike when they please and for as long a time as they please; but they have no right whatever to try to compel others to quit work who do not wish to strike. They have no right to call men “scabs,” “blacklegs” and the like, neither have they a right to make threats against them, do them bodily harm or damage and destroy their property. On the other hand, strike breakers must remember that they, too, must be decent and law-abiding if they ex- pect to keep out of the meshes of the law. Not all of them have been fol- lowing a peaceable and commendable course, here of late, and if they get thoroughly pounded for their folly, they will have no sympathy from decent people and little or no redress in law. We refer to a few young pugs that went to work recently, and .now, be- cause the strike is thoroughly broken, and seeing that public sentiment is strongly against prolonging the strike, they are given to running about town looking for trouble with the strikers. They are in the habit of going into the saloons and restaurants, calling for beer, sandwiches, ete., and when they are supplied, they generally remark: “Didn’t think you’d sell a scab a sand- wich,” or “Didn’t think vou’d sell beer to scabs.” These remarks are indulged in when there are a few strikers pres- ent, and they are uttered for the ex- press purpose of creating trouble. Other insulting remarks are also made use of, and the pugs we refer to even go so far as to call strikers and strike sympathizers to account for passing them without speaking, and through that kind of conduct several nasty and general fights have been narrowly averted during the past week. The trouble-bunters need not think for one moment that they will be pro- tected by the court’s injunctions if they get into trouble through and by their own mouths. Injunctions are not granted for that purpose. They are intended to protect property, and men, too, when the men are attending strict- ly to their own business. But when men are going about with “chips on their shoulders,” abusing others for not speaking to them, etc., no injunction on earth will shield or protect them in the least. To intimidate or attack a man for going to work, is a very seri- ous matter, especially when under an injunction. But to knock the stuffing out of a fellow when he insults and abuses you for not speaking to him, is merely a case of assault and battery, and one that is not in the least covered by any of the court’s injunctions. Law-abiding people have no use for a quarrelsome “smart aleck” or pug, no matter whether he is a striker or a strike-breaker. If you want to dig coal, Mr. Miner, dig it. That is your right and your privilege, and if any striker interferes with you, enforce the law or else knock the devil out’ of him. But under no circumstances insult the strikers if they let you alone. In fact you had better not mingle with them, unless it becomes positively necessary. Go quietly and fearlessly about your own business, but under no circum- stances get into any needless conver- sation or controversy with the men on strike. Now, a few words to the strikers: Don’t molest the men who wish to work, for you have no legal right to do 80. You have a perfect right to be friendly with them and try to persuade them not to go to work, providing you go about it in the right kind of a way ; but you have no right to trespass, in- timidate or resort to anything but law- ful means. It is your right and privi- lege to strike when you please and as long as you please ; but it is your duty to go quietly about your business and observe the law. If a strike breaker is not content to let you alone when you are letting him alone, enforce the law { or knock ihe stuffing out of him. The | man who is looking for trouble gen- erally gets all he is looking for, sooner or later. {| To the operators we have this to say: | It is your duty to protect your men if | they are unjustly imposed upon; but it is also your duty to promptly get rid of those of your employes who make a business of hunting trouble just be- cause they think you will defend and protect them. If the operators get rid of quarrelsome employes as fast as they are apprehended, and the local unions rid their membership of some of the worthless anarchistic element in the organization, there will soon be much less friction between capital and labor, and it will be better for all concerned.

Valentine Gress, John Gress, Dillon Murray and John Hoskin, who were adjudged in contempt of court two weeks ago and committed to jail pend- ing a hearing, were taken before Judge Kooser, last Saturday. The three first named admitted their presence at the scene of the trouble with employes of the Somerset Coal Company near Shaw Mine, Sunday two weeks ago, in viola- tion of the order of court, and were sentenced to pay the costs of the pro- ceedings and a fine of $75 each, in de- fault of which they were remanded to jail. Witnesses for Hoskin affirmed that he was riot present on the morn- ing of the disorder, but the preponder- ance of evidence was against him, and Judge Kooser left him off upon pay- ment of his share of the costs. Since the affray, which culminated in the imprisonment of the men named, every- thing has been quiet in the Meyersdale region, everybody seeming to realize that the strike is a matter of the past. —Somerset Herald. i E. H. MILLER asks the readers ofthis paper to test the value of Kodol Dyspepsia Cure. Those persons who have used it and who have been cured by it, do not hesitate to recommend it to their friends. Kodol digests what you eat, cures indigestion, dyspepsia and all stomach troubles. Increases strength by enabling the stomach and digestive organs to con- tribute to the blood all of the nutri- ment contained in the food. Kodol Dyspepsia Cure is pleasant and palat- able. 7-1 ae Coal Trade Continues Dull. Work throughout the Cambria Coun- ty coal field continues very dull. The Lilly Signal says that the mines which are making more than half time are the exception rather than the rule, while quite a large number of mines are completely idle. This reflects a falling off in the demand for coal from manufacturing plants and other sources, and as a result shipments are unusually light, and some of the train crews are feeling the effects of the dullness as well as the miners. There need hardly be any permanent im- provement looked for, says the Signal, until along toward fall, although there may be occasional spurts at some of the mines when the better grades of coal are being sought. EE FOR A HUNDRED YEARS. For a hnndred years or more Witch Hazel has been recognized as a super- ior remedy, but it remained for E. C. DeWitt & Co’, of Chicago, to discover how to combine fhe virtues of Witch Hazel with other antiseptics, in the form of a salve. DeWitt’s Witch Hazel Salve is the best salve in the world for sores, cuts, burns, bruises and piles. The high standing of this salve has given rise to counterfeits, and the pub- lic is advised to look for the name “De- Witt” on the package, and accept no other. Sold by E. H.

A magazine in answer to the ques- tion, “What became of John Wilkes Booth’s body after it was taken from the barn where he was shot?” says: “His body was brought to Washing- ton, where it was held until many per- sons who knew him personally had ex- amined it. Some of the members of his own family were among these, All identified it as the body of John Wilkes Booth. It was then buried secretly in the United States arsenal grounds at Washington. After a time it was removed and given to his sur- viving relatives, who buried it in the Booth lot in a Baltimore cemetery. It was interred there, the ground leveled and covered with grass, and nothing erected to mark the place. Jo one knows exactly the spot where it lies.” RAILROAD RUMOR. The Oakland & Confluence May be Made Connecting Link. The Cumberland Times recently con- tained the following, relative road building: The latest ramor in railroad circles is thac the B. & 0. management has under advisement a plan to build a double-tracked road from a point west of Oakland to connect with the Pitts- burg division near Sand Patch. The reason given for this contem- plated move is said to be a desire to avoid the seventeen- mile grade on the third division with through freight. The seventeen-mile grade has al- ways been an expensive piece of rail- road, but in the past year the frequency of disastrous wrecks has made the to- tal cost enormous. If the new line spoken of should be built, it would mean that the usefulness of the Pinto tunnel would be practically limited to coal shipments from the George’s creek region. : All through freight to and from the west would pass Hyndman. “There is no telling what the B. & Q may do,” said a railroader in discussing the rumor already referred to. “But a few short years ago,” he con- tinued, “the Cumberland yards were built, and then we were told that Key- ser would be abandoned as a railroad town. The yards here had not beem finished six months until the Pinto cut- off was arranged for, and shortly after- ward the talk went the rounds that Cumberland was to be reduced to a little branch station with accommoda- tion train to carry passengers to the main line. Keyser, it was declared, was destined to become the railroad center. Now that the cut-off has had its day, and Keyser has had the excite- ment incident to great hopes, it would not be surprising if even at this early day ancther change is being consider- ed” to rail- A STRONG HEART is assured by perfect digestion.

Bry- don giving as their reason for doing se the continued low price of coal, and as the quality of the coal at this mine is not of the best, they were unable to find a market for it at any price. The White’s Creek Coal Company and the Listonburg Coal Company, operating mines at Listonburg, in Ad- dison township, have hath closed down their mines, as they were unable to sell their product. Manager Beals, of the White’s Creek Co., informed the writer that his company had nine cars loaded on the track at that place which he had been unable to sell, and that he would be compelled to unload it upon the ground to stop demurage, as he had offered it at a loss, and yet could not find a buyer. The impression among coal men is that other mines will be obliged to do the same thing, as the market is so bad.—Meyersdale Repub- lican. The Shadow of Polities. In spite of the excellent condition of the country, the shadow of the Presi- dential election is falling upon business It was hoped that we would be spar- ed that folly this year, but it seems not altogether. Capital is very timid. No mouse ever scampered back to his hole faster at the scent of danger than does money hole up in the banks when the financial atmosphere shows the least cloud of danger. However, as the clouds are small and few, it is to be hoped that we will weather the excitement of politics without serious disaster, and when the sun of another Republican administra- tion dawns upon the country, every- body will take fresh courage and busi- ness will boom again.—Connellsville Courier.
