I7’s pretty nervy to ask Republicans to support a candidate for Governor who has twice stumped the State against the Republican ticket and once stood as the Democratic candidate for Congress against the regular Republi- can nominee.—Harrisburg Telegraph. etl lee. Fusion in Pennsylvania with dis- gruntled Republicans is part of the plan of the national Democracy to gain control of the next Congress. That is the reason the fusion move- ment is being pushed for all it is worth. How many Republicans are willing to be led into the trap.—Altoona Gazette. ————eerate. OF all the fool people in this world who make themselves ridiculous and small in the estimation of mankind in general, none are more foolish and contemptible than the man who thinks other men have no right to follow whatever honorable occupation they please. No man has a pre-emption on any particular trade, and the artisan or mechanic who thinks he ought to have a monopoly of his trade is simply an ass. THE declaration of Candidate Emery that the history of the Republican party for the past forty years is a his- tory of crime and infamy is an insult to every one of the citizens of this great commonwealth that has during that time voted the Republican ticket. The truth is that the history of the Re- publican party for the last half century is the history of the state. To this maligned party is due its unparalleled greatness and prosperity. And what other state is there in the union that excels it in these? And yet this man claims to be a Republican! But it is all explained when the company he is in is considered.—Altoona Gazette. Tue Pittsburg Post admits that Emery was conferring with the wicked Republicans early in the summer, rela- tive to the nomination for Governor, and that he agreed to support John Stewart, but not Edwin 8S. Stuart. Emery has been proclaiming the total depravity of the Republican state or- ganization, yet here is the confession of his Pittsburg organ that a few months ago he was in conference with the leaders of this same organization as to who would be acceptable to him and his select coterie for Governor. Fresh evidence of the hypocritical character of this sham reform.—Union- town News Standard. “THERE ig no race suicide in Meyers- dale,” says the Meyersdale Republican. Let us hope not, but if all reports are true, (and some of them seem to be well founded) a couple of fellows down there are making quite a lot of money through helping race suicide along. But perhaps humanity in general is benefited by race suicide, for the rug- ged and resolute Wm. Gilbert, of Som- erset, has truthfully said that only fools are opposed to having children, and there is no good reason why that class should multiply themselves upon the earth. Gilbert is right, but we think the Republican is entitled to another guess concerning the popula- tion of Meyersdale. THE poor old North American is in a bad way. It tried hard to make it ap- pear that the Real Estate Trust Com- pany, of Philadelphia, might not have failed if Banking Commissioner Berkey had watched its business methods more closely by having its books examined oftener. However, since the North American has had its attention called to the fact that the official thieves who looted the bank are all men high in the councils of Wanamaker’s sham reform movement, that journal twists and squirms to beat the band. Hipple, the rascally president of the defunct con- cern, was a praying fraud like “Holy” John Wanamaker, and like him was also a prominent Emery man. J. Bay- ard Henry, one of the directors of the fraudulently defunct trust company, is also a prominent Lincoln party man, and he was slated for the State Senate, but “Holy John” won’t let him run now. The sham reformers are a pretty lot, are they not? ee FRAUD IS ALLEGED. Postoflice Inspectors After Chicago Trading and Transportation Company. If the postoffice inspectors are able to prove their allegations of fraud against the officers of the Tobasco Chapias Trading & Transportation Company, of Chicago, hundreds of poor folks in this state will suffer financially. Many were induced to invest their savings in this company, and were paid regular dividends. The Federal au- thorities now allege that these divi- dends were paid out of the sale of new stock. We believe some Everett peo- ple were interested in this concern.— Everett Republican. LISTEN TO IT. The Old Faking North American Forgets Itself and Tells the Truth. * Once in a while the sham reformers, headed by Wanamaker and the North American, forget themselves and tell the truth about each other. Evidently seeing the handwriting on the wall, the Philadelphia North American flies into a rage and thought- ‘lessly exposes some of its fellow sham reformers. The outlook for Emery and the other fake reformers evidently is not very encouraging in Philadeplhia, judging from an editorial which ap- peared in the North American, last Friday. Following are some extracts from it: “Out of more than 800,000 qualified voters in Philadelphia, about 75,000 registered, last Tuesday. This fact is a disheartening commentary upon the state of public spirit. It is, too, as we shall demonstrate, a humiliating in- dictment of the City party organiza- tion. From top to bottom the Republican organization was alert and busy, in- structing voters how to register, ex- plaining the law, seeking out the apa- thetic and ignorant, making every ef- fort, in fact, that is customary on elec- tion day. The friends of good government and the voters of the City party had a right to expect similar activity and similar intslligent application from the City party organization. Yet in the face of this commanding duty it displayed an indifference bardly removed from contempt. Worse than that, as if to emphasize their political degeneracy, the leaders of the party speat that day of urgent SPporiunity in holding an undisguise political meeting in the office. of the Mayor. While the despised leaders of the Republican Organization were busily and earnestly working for advantage under the terms of the new law, the self-appointed guardians of reform were enjoying an oratorical pinic, and fatuously snatching at the air for an issue. It is to be doubted whether one of them has wit enouge to discern that the biggest issue they could possibly desire was being settled at the places of registration while they were engaged in mutual admiration. The spectacle they gave in the Mayor’s office of defiance to reform legislation and the attempted influenc- ing of place-holders was more outrage- ous than anything the old Gang ever perpetrated. Unless the voters awaken to the peril, and compel radical reforms in the re- form body, the cause of good govern- ment will move on to inevitable disas- ter. Nothing can save it except the restoration to the high plane it oceu- pied in the early stages of the fight of the City party organization, which now has degenerated into a self-seeking, patronage-grabbing, law-defying body. More, even, than in the days of the gas steal, of list padding and ballot-box stuffing, it is demanded of them that they enforce upon their party repre- sentatives a realization that indiffer- ence to duty, aggravated by the use of worse than Gang methods, will no longer be tolerated.” ‘ Ye gods and little fishes, what an ar- raignment of its fellow fake reformers! Tnink of it, the chief organ of the fake reformers declaring that their own leaders need reforming, that they have been betraying their trust, resorting to worse than Gang methods, degenerat- ed into a self-seeking, patronage-grab- bing, law-defying body! Well, an honest confession is good for the soul, and the whole fact is that the would- be reformers are led by a gang of liars, defamers and sorehead office-seekers. No political party is perfect, but the grand old Republican party is the best and most honorable of the lot. It has given us prosperity that is the envey of all the world, and the man who votes for Emery or any of the other sham Lincoln-Democratic fusion fakirs will do something foolish in the extreme. POLITICAL PHARISEES. The Bedfard Gazette furnishes us a striking example of Democratic incon- sistency. It urges the Prohibitionists to vote against Congressman Reynolds because he does not practice their principles. Louis Emery, Jr., does not practice Prohibition, either, yet Democratic or- gans think he is entitled to Prohibition support. Neither does he practice Democracy, yet the same organs think he is entitled to Democratic support. Hegdoes not practice Republicanism, yet certain mugwump organs feel cer- tain that he should have the Republi- can support. Emery is a professional reformer, and as such is entitled and should receive the support of professional reformers. A professional reformer is one who sees no good in any party, and would cast them all down and destroy them to the end that the world may be made better by having better men in office, he and his friends being the better men. They are political Pharisees seeking in the name of the people their own personal advancement, Home is the best place for them.— Connellsville Courier. NO KNIVES OUT HERE. The Somerset Herald suggests that The Courier will be better employed in trying to mollify the anger of the friends of J. V. Thompson, who have their scalping knives out for Penrose’s man Stuart, instead of building up Re- publican majorities in Somerset county. This is a unique view for a Republi- can newspaper, unless it is a fusion organ, and we have as yet no formal declaration from Editor Seull of his position. As a Republican paper, we think it is proper and right for us to build up Republican majorities wher- ever and whenever possible, or at least to lend our feeble efforts to the cause; to be a common laborer on the Repub- lican wall, if we cannot be the Nehe- miah. : There is little need to mend the Re- publican wallin Fayette county. It is straight and strong. There are no scalping knives here. The Herald is misinformed. Fayette county Repub- licans fight their differences out within their ranks. J. V. Thompson and his friends will be found supporting the Republican ticket with the same loyalty they have always displayed. They pledged that support at Harrisburg and they will redeem the pledge in November.—Con- nellsville Courier. WELL TO BE CAREFUL.

Last Sunday the editor, in company with his wife and daughter Minnie, drove over to Sand Patch and spent an unusually pleasant day at Hotel Far- ner. The visit was made in response to many very pressing invitations extend- ed by the genial host and hostess, Mr. and Mrs. H. C. Farner. With these good friends we couldn’t help having a nice time, for as enter- tainers they have few equals and no superiors. To add to the pleasure of the occa- sion, we had the good fortune there to meet Editor U. 8. Werner, of the Rockwood Leader, his printer, Mr. Wolfersberger, and Mr. and Mrs. C. G. Eicher, also of Rockwood. We are sure that our Rockwood friends en- joyed the visit as much as we did, and to add to the pleasure of the day, Messrs. Werner and Eicher treated the entire company to some very excellent violin, organ and piano music. It goes without saying that Mr. and Mrs. Farner left nothing undone that would add to the pleasure of their guests, and not the least feature of the day was a dinner worth going many miles to partake of. The tables were loaded with every good thing that the market affords at this bountiful season of the year, but Editor Werner made the mistake of his life when he undertook to eat as much spring chicken as Tar Stir man. “Urie” simply wasn’t “in it” on chicken, but say, you just ought to have seen him hide away sixteen big roasting ears, while Tue Star man couldn’t eat over about fifteen to save his life. Thus were honors about even. Much more might be said, but this must suffice, and the day will ever be remembered by all present as a bright and sunny spot in their lives, a day not to be forgotten. “Long, long, be my heart with such memories filled, Like the vase in which roses have once been distilled. You may break, you may shatter the vase, if you will, But the scent of the roses will hang round it still.” Maryland Has a Good Dog Law. Condemned to death after October 1st is the dog found running at large without the tag prescribed by a recent act of the Maryland Legislature, mak- ing it incumbent upon the owner to se- cure the small piece of metal of some one of the constables of the county. The law was enacted primarily for the purpose of protecting the sheep of the farmer and to raise revenue to pay him for any damage he may sustain by the invasion of his flock by dogs run- ning at large. It provides that all owners shall, prior to September 1st, procure from the constable of their re- spective districts a metal tag showing that the license for the current year has been paid. The constables have been kept busy during the past few weeks issuing these tags and recording the names of those securing the same.
