For a long time Pennsylvania produced more oil than all other states combined, but for quantity of petroleum, California now ranks first, Texas second and Ohio third. The Western oil, however, is not of as good quality as that produced by the Eastern states, and whon it comes to value of product, Ohio stands first, West Virginia second and Penn- sylvania third, while California drops to fifth place. — DANGER FROM THE PLAGUE.

The Fusion mass meeting held in Wolf’s hall, Saturday evening, was as successful as anticipated. Exactly 67 persons gathered there to hear the Democratic and Lincoln speakers pre- sent their side of the case. Of these 67, 14 were minors and 23 were avowed straight Republicans. The meeting was presided over by N.S. Baker, who was secretary of the regular Republi- can rally held just a week earlier. On the stage beside the speakers were J. A. Phillippi, Zach Snyder, J. C. McSpad- den, H. Snyder and John Wilkins. Attorney Charles W. Walker, of Som- erset, was the first speaker. He dwelt entirely on the new capitol issue. Val- entine Hay was the next speaker, and although he said some things which deserved applause, he is so well known here that his words were wasted. W. H. Koontz then made his usual flowery speech, and told of how near he was elected Speaker of the House during his term in that body. Earnest O. Kooser appeared near the end of Koontz’s address and was called upon the stage. He made a short address, but seemed to be somewhat excited, and failed to make much of an impres- sion on the audience. While the two latter gentlemen were speaking, many of the audience left the building. Colonel “Edwie” Werner occupied a prominent seat in the front of the building, and was the leader of all the applause, but we all know the Colonel. —Rockwood Correspondent in Con- nellsville Courier.

William Weaver, a resident of Phila- delphia, died alone and unattended in a tent on the William Anderson farm, near Confluence, some time Saturday night or Sunday morning of last week. Weaver came to Confluence some time ago with Dr. Morrison. He was seek- ing a cure for consumption and thought open air life in the mountains would benefit him. Robert P. Ray, of Meyersdale, a min- er employed by the Washington Coal & Coke Company, was picked up along the Baltimore & Ohio railroad tracks, near Dawson, one evening last week, and taken to the hospital at Connells- ville. He had evidently been struck by a train. Ray sustained a fractured skull. He is 54 years old and has a wife in Meyersdale.

Castle, in a specch at Bethlehem, been made to perfect the State organi- | reform party, but a party of disgruntl- zations of the Anti-Vaccination ed, disappointed office-seekers.” This Leagues, and with their growth, and | is true. In this county (Erie) Isaac B. thereby the extension of more general | Brown was a candidate for renomina- information on the subject of vaccina- | tion for Secretary of Internal Affairs. tion, much strength has been given to the national league. The object of this article is not to discuss or present the evidences that have made the writer a bitter enemy of the system of vaccination. We desire to call attention to the advance of the organized opposition, and the indica- tion that intelligence and humanity are beating back the legions of ignor- ance and greed. The smallpox scares and “epidemics,” and “quarantines,” and pest houses, and “night burials,” and closed streets, and fumigations, and burning of the furniture and cloth- ing, are links in a chain of systematic hysteria that has been planted, and cultivated, and harvested with paying results to the operators, but is passing with the mad dog seares, the Blue Laws, and the tales and torture of the witches. A recent press dispatch from Phila- delphia published in some papers that are not afraid to touch the subject, no- tices that the State Anti-Vaccination League, in its annual meeting in that city, has taken steps to push the work, and has prepared plans to take the fight into politics, this year. They pro- pose to ask every candidate to pledge his support in the effort to repeal the compulsory vaccination law in Penn- sylvania. A regular form will be gent out to all candidates requesting them to define their position on the question of vacei- nation, and the league will support only such candidates as are willing to go on record as opposed to the present law. Next year it is proposed to hold a national convention of anti-vaccina- tionists and an effort will be made to institute an anti-vaccination political campaign in every State in the country. As on the first day of the conference, State Commissioner of Health Dixon was subjected to a bitter criticism of his methods in enforcing the vaccina- tion law. Dr. Z. T. Miller, of Pittsburg, presi- dent of the Western Pennsylvania Anti-Vaccination Society, said of him: “Dixon’s methods are autocratic, and he is merely a tool in the hands of legislators who know as little about vaccination as do pigs about Latin. He exemplifies the police power intruding into matters medical—a power that must be brought to an early end.” The highest pitch of enthusiasm of the convention was reached when a letter from Dr. M. R. Leverson, called by Secretary Cope “one of the greatest authorities on smallpox and vaccina- tion in the world,” was read. In part it said: “I greatly rejoice that you are tak- ing a political stand against that blood- poisoning fantasy—vaccination. There is no support in science, medicine or common sense for this shameful out- rage upon the human race. Vaccina- tion was begotten in greed and vanity, delivered in murder and maintained by shameles ignorance. Jenner and Pas- teur are the greatest enemies the hu- man race has had for the last two hundred years”’—Journal of the Knights of Labor. ALL PLAIN NOW. At last we have a clear, concise, Democratic admission of a point con- tended since the opening of the State campaign. Emery has joined his Lin- coln crew with the Democratic party in an effort to become Governor; the Demoeratic party has accepted the issue in the hope of gaining control of Pennsylvania. The appended chipping is from the Clearfield Public Spirit, Matt Savage’s paper. Mr. Savage was formerly secretary of the State Demo- cratic Committee. He knows what he is talking about, and he gives the whole Emery Fusion deal away when he says: “We will hail the day and the hour when Pennsylvania, the bulwark of Republicanism, shall be captured and permanently held by the Democratic party. This happy consummation will be realized on November 6th. On the evening of that day there will be no fighting and fussing as to whether the Republicans or the Lincoln party ma- chine will get the offices and incidental plunder, because the Democratic party will assume control of the state, and all the offices will then be held by Democrats. No Republicans of any variety need apply.” et — A YOUNG MOTHER AT 70. “My mother has suddenly been made young at 70. Twenty years of intense suffering from dyspepsia had entirely disabled her, until six months ago, when she began taking Electric Bitters, which have completely cured her and restored the strength and activity she had in the prime of life,” writes Mrs. W.

This, notwithstanding the fact that for more than twenty years the Republican party has kept him in an office that commanded a high salary. His policy is torule or ruin. In other words, the Republicans must give him a life lease of office, or he will do what he can to disrupt the party. Ex-Judge Frank Gunnison, of Erie, bolted the party be- cause it did not give him a second term as President Judge of this Judicial dis- trict, after having the fattest office in the county for ten years. And so it is all over the state. The leading Lincoln Republicans are the disappointed of- fice-seekers. Their following is small. They are not governed by principle, but by revenge for not keeping them for- ever in office.—Northeast Sun. THE GILT OF BERRY. In his ravings at Bellefonte, W. H. Berry confessed that as State Treasur- er he had made illegal payments on the new capitol to the extent of $142, 000. This being true, by what right does this derelict presume to question other officials? Is it not in order for the confessed incompetent Treasurer to resign? Again, at the same Demo-Fuso meet- ing, reckless Berry charged that T. Larry Eyre, a Republican leader, was interested in the Pennsylvania Con- struction Company, which supplied filing cases for the new capitol. Mr. Eyre publicly denounces the assertion as false; that he does not hold stock, and knows no one that has. Again, reckless Berry bawled against the granolite pavement that was placed around the capitol. Yet it was on June 5th last that Berry himself took part in signing the contract for the very paving to which he now takes ex- ception! Verily, Berry is a political fakir and menace to the public weal. + etl ee Emery’s Latest Break. “Are we not traveling toward a mad- house?” shrieks the Pittsburg Post. Well, your candidate for governor, Lewis Emery, is going in that direction at an astounding clip. At Bangor, Northampton county, on Saturday, Mr. Emery said this about the workingman in politics : “You workingmen poll more than a million votes in this commonwealth. If you would but use the enormous power at your command intelligently you could control the legislation of the state. * * * Yet some of you have had so little regard for the precious right of suffrage that you have sold your votes. Think of a man weighing 180 pounds selling himself for $1—a little over a half cent a pound—when pork is selling at 12 cents a pound or more |” First he puts the brewery on a level with the church, the school and the hospital, and then he puts the laboring man on a plane with the pig. The charge that the workingman of Penn- sylvania has been selling his vote is an insult to labor. The man who utters such a sweeping slander is not the kind to elect governor of a great state.— Pittsburg Gazette Times. A Safe Headache Cure.

We are here with the goods. The bread of life! The water of life! Our price: ‘Come ye and buy without money and withont price! We pro- pose to tell the mean peoele of Neo- desha how to get good, and the good people how to get better.”—London Daily News. —e——————— HELP OURSELVES. We have often wondered why it is considered Tom’s duty to wait on Mary, and why Mary is expected to clean up Tom’s litter, hang up his coat and hunt his hat. Both children consider them- selves martyrs. Would it not be much pleasanter for each to do his or her own work? It would have the effect in after years of making Tom a more orderly man, and a better husband— should he become one—and of making Mary a stronger woman. We have often wondered why moth- er’'s memory and hands must serve for a dozen persons.” Would it not be bet- ter for all concerned if mother’s kind- ness contained more of self-assertion and less of self-sacrifice? Would not, at times, papa feel lesz disturbed, nay, wrathfully, if he were careful to keep his own papers in order, and perform the twenty other trivial things he has time to do in leisure moments, but ex- pects of some one else? Would it not be better for sister to teach baby—who is old enough—to button his own shoes, than to do it for him each morning as a duty? SERRE EST
