OUR COUNTRY : First, Last and Forever.
There is a Boivrcity of labor in
Westorn Pennsylvania, tlio manu
factories ami railroads being unable
to find sufficient men to meet the de
mands of the greatly increased busi
ness. Almost every person who
wants work can find It. The labor
ing class is the one on whioli there Is
the greatest drain, and as every mill
of importance in Western Pennsyl
vania Is running the men who want
to work can get plenty of it. "Never
before has there been suoh a demand,
and in many instances the employers
cannot find sufficient men to meet it.
The officials of the railroad lines West
have had considerable trouble getting
men for track work, and for some
time past have been looking for
laborers.
Thk oleomargarine law passed by
the Legislature is already bringing
thousands of dollars In revenue into
the State Treasury. To sell oleomar
garine under this law it Is necessary
that a license be secured at the Pure
Food Bureau. The fees for these
licenses vary. There is a retailer's
fee, which also varies, in that stores,
hotels and boarding houses are not
charged alike, while there is also a
larger fee for those who intend to
manufacture oleo for sale. These
licenses have been going out since
June 1, and the Bureau on Tuesday
turned into the State Treasury more
than $11,000 in fees paid from these
licenses.
It may safely be asserted that no
where in the world are free schools
more universal than in the United
States. There are no restrictions re
, garding nationality or religion. The
children of immigrants from foreign
lands are taught the rudiments of
knowledge, and quickly learn our
language ; and as they advance in
age they are instructed in the prin
ciples of our free government, so that
long before the boys reach the voting
age they have become familiarized
with the duties and responsibilities of
citizenship. While there is much
that is admirable in our public school
system, thero is undoubtedly room
for improvement. Indiscriminate
criticism is, however, unjust, and as
harmful as effusive praise.
Ballot Harking Question.
In tho case of the eleotion of an
assessor in Gearhart township, North
umberland county, the Supreme
Court in an opinion by Ohief -Justice
Sterratt, decided a ballot marking
question.
The Election Board returned that
M. P. Gurlick, Ilepubllcan.-and Theo
dore Koblson, Democrat, candidates
for the office of Assessor, eaoh re
ceived fifty votes. There being no
election, the County Commissioners
appointed Gurlick Assessor. The
requisite number of electors pre
sented a petition to the Court of
Quarter Sessions of tho county sett
ing out that eleven Illegal votes had
been counted for Gurlick which
should have been rejected, because
there was upon them a cross mark in
the circle at the head of the Repub
lican column and a cross mark In the
square on the Demporatic column op
posite the name of a candidate for
Supervisor.
The lower court sustained tho al
legation of illegality as to these
ballots, and declared Roblson to have
been elected. Chief Justice Sterrett
reverses this finding and affirms the
correctness of the return of the Elec
tion Board. He points out that there
were two Supervisors to be .elected,
hat that the Republican ballot con
tained the name of but one candidate
for this, office, and that the voter,
while voting the whole Republican
ticket by marking a cross in the
circle, still had the right to vote for
another Supervisor, because he was
entitled to vote for candidates for all
lie offices that wero to bo filled.

ADMIRAL DEWEY AT TRIESTE.

fore tho Unttlo of Manllu Ilccau.
Trieste, July 21. The steamer Olym-
pia, with Admiral Dewey on board,
arrived hero yesterday. The Olympla
will remain here aout two weeks.
Admiral Dewey's health is perfect. He
has not decided whether he will go
to Carlsbad, as had been announced.
but it is not probable that ho will do so.
The admiral Intends to visit Vienna.
Upon her arrival hero the Olympla
fired a salute of 21 guns, which was
returned from the fort and four Aus
trian and one Greek warships. Subse
quently Admiral Dewey received visits
from the port authorities, tho United
States minister to Austria, Mr. Addi
son C. Harris, and the staff of the
legation and the consuls of the United
States in Austria. The foreign con
suls were received by Admiral Dewey
on board the Olympla during the fore
noon. Admiral Dewey has made a good Im
pression upon all who have come in
contact with him, and his unaffected
modesty has won for him golden opin
ions. In the courso of a conversation
with a newspaper correspondent ho
declared that he had small claim to
be regarded as a hero, as nervousness
and bad coffee made him dreadfully
seasick beforo the battle of Manila
began.
It is understood that the admiral
will return to America shortly via Bre
men In a mall steamer.
The Dowoy Sword Presentation.
Washington, July 21, Sergeant-at-Arms

presentation of a sword to Admiral
Dewey upon his return to Washington.
As tho bouse Is at present without a
speaker, tbo vice president has full
authority. If he gives his approval a
platform will be erected and the sword
will be handed to tho admiral by Sec
retary Long.

ANSWERED PRAYER.
I prayed that love might come;
That that great passion which makes heOTCTI
or hell
To whom It cometh mlRht fill my lono hoart
With nil its heights of joy and depths of woo,
That I might know tho length and broadth of
human soul
Which but tho heart that loves can ever know.
Lovo camel How my llfo bloomed!
IIow fairer than I thought was earthl How
i"mr Boomed honven I
Tho griefs that had bvon mlno wero gilded
o'er
With light from my glad heart, and thoy wero
le.it.
And then God the heavens broko; tho earth
stood still
I stood alono to reckon up tho cost.
Tho day will nover dawn so horror flllod,
Not when tho oarth shall melt nnd roll away.
Such agony will never como to one poor
heart
Thoro comes a time wo cannot oven pray,
Tho soul knows well thero is both hell and
heaven,
When, when unsought the heart's full loyo la
given.
An answered prayerl Ood gave first what 1
aikcd npd naught busldo,
Tho bitter portion iny own lips had craved.
What other could ho do than glvo it mot
How other teach my willful heart tho truth
That prayers of onrth nsk over but tho wraith f
He gtvetholl unasked to those who livoby
faith.

Tho readers of this paper will be pleased to

that BClenco has been nblo to cure In all Its
stages, nnd that Is catarrh. Hall's Catarrh Cure
Is tho only positive euro known to tho medical
fraternity. Catarrh being a constitutional dis
ease, requires a constitutional treatment. Hall's
Catarrh Cure is taken internally, acting directly
upon tho blood and mucous surfaces of the
system, thereby destroying tho foundation of
tho disease, and giving the pntlcnt strength by
building up tbo constitution and assisting
nnturo in doing Its work. Tho proprietors have
so much faith in Its curative powers, that they
offer One Hundred Dollars foranycaso that it
fails to cure. Send for list of testimonials.

JURS. ilUZADKTH PARCKLS,
Marcus Hook, Pa.
Bbenaadoah drug storo, wholesale agent
Dr, Juckson points to
tho startling fact that
there are now 20 million
Catarrh victims in this
country nnrt the number
rapidly increasing, It
has already become the
Nntlonal Disease, Are
we to become a nation of
Catarrhites? It looks
like it.
The Aboriginal Indians are said not to have
known the dlseMe. That proves It Is not caused
by our climate and must have been Imported.
Its growth was slow but persistent Forty
years ago there were less than 40.000 esses In
the V. to-iday there are 20 million. Soon
there will be 30 million. Where is It to end?
Shall we not awake tilt It has fastened Its fangs
on every msn, woman and child In the land?
IIow shall we prevent It unless we take fmmed
lite and vigorous steps lo stamp out the nlagiief
This putrid disease knows no sex, no. class, no
station. It is everywhere. A germ (microbe)
disease It spreads by contagion. The carlon
breath and expectoration of the poor victim are
loaded with these nlcrobes. Others breath them
In, they find lodgement and never release their
hold till the vieiim lies down In death, unless
every microbe Is killed. But can they be killed t
Yes, but not by any "blood medicine." No Ca
tarrh germ was ever fouud In the blood. The
trouble Is local and must be treated locally. A
balsam has been discovered that is sure deitth
to the Catarrh microbe, making a radical and
permanent cure. It is Brazilian Balm. It has
cured tens of thousands in the past 15 years. It
also cures all the troubles caused by Catarrh,
as Sore Throat, Old Coughs, Bronchitis, Asthma
nnd I.uiiff troubles. The swallowing of: the
Catarrh pus makes the Stomach raw and ulcer
ated. The Brazilian Balm soon makesa radical
cure of the Stomach and alimentary canal. It
is the cheapest remedy on the market, a 11.00
bottle containing' a whole month's treatment.
As nil sufferers with Catarrh and Asthma have
run-down systems, we will till January next put
a month's treatment of Toxlcola Tablets, free,
In with every $1.00 bottle ol Brazilian Dalm.
This Is the best Tonic and nerve and strength
builder known. You get all for $1.00, a month's
treatment of both. Now is the time to treat
your Catarrh. Do not delay. Ask your druggist
and take no substitute. If he will not get it,
send direct to us. B. I. Jackson tk. Co., M'f'g.
