Long, former Secretary of tho Navy, has compiled eight reasons why he will not vote for Roosevelt. This recalls to mind the story of that monarch who, on a visit to a certain city, was met by a committee with a carefully prepared paper, which It was proposed to read to the king, giving nineteen reasons why he had not received a royal salute. "What is the first reason?" asked tho monarch. "We had no powder," replied the committee. "That's enough," said the king. One reason is sufficient for not voting for The Colonel. He supplies It himself. It is because he is sim ply "ME." GOOD-ROADS JONES AND THE HULL MOOSE PARTY. It appears that Representative E. E. Jones, Susquehanna county, who Is a candidate for re-election, Is in trouble with the Bull Mooso party of that county. This party recently held a convention at Montrose, and while endorsing all other Republi can county and district candidates, refused to endorse Mr. Jones. The reason appears to be that In his reply to State Chairman Wasson's circular letter asking for the status of can didates, Mr. Jones replied that he was a Progressive but was not yet convinced of the wisdom of the theory of the recall of fudges and of Judicial decisions, nor did he think it wise to commit himself to proposed legislation without knowing its specific character. Hence his unac ceptability to the Bull Moose party of Susquehanna county. Is there not current an old saying about cutting off the noso to spite tho face? No one doubts Mr. Jones' ability as a legislator. It has been abundantly proven. His personal character and integrity have never been questioned. Ho is one of the first citizens of Susquehanna county as every one concedes. That county has not had a more acceptable re presentative In tho legislature In many years. His reputation as a wise legislator is state-wide. His Good-roads bill brought him the support and approval of every coun try dweller in the state. His record and standing are such that the Dem ocratic party in his own county has endorsed him for re-election. It remained for the Bull Mooso organi zation to find that he was not a fit candidate for them to support. Be cause he does not concede the wis dom of a certain theory propounded by tho Bull Moose leader, but which In all human probability will never have the remotest application to, or effect upon his county, and because ho does not tie his hands and stifle his Judgment in advance con cerning proposed legislation, the Bull Mooso party of Susquehanna county will have nono of him. Was ever political wisdom so sparingly exerted? In tho mean timo Good Roads Jones has no occasion for anx iety. With tho support of both tho Republican and Democratic parties, and with a personal popularity rare ly equalled by any politician, ho need not fear anything that tho Bull Mooso party can do to him In No vember. THE USE OF TUB VETO. In tho use that he has mado of the veto power during the recent session of Congress, President Taft has done the country a servlco that will bo more and moro appreciated as timo goes on. Ho has dono nothing of a spectacular character, but he has act W. W. WOOD ed with a courage and conscience en tirely worthy of one in his exalted position and appreciating its grave responsibilities. Even the political enemies of President Taft give him credit for sincerity and integrity in all his acts. He has completely Justified that esti mate. He is never the partisan at the expense of his patriotism. His vetoes of the Democratic tariff measures wero not partisan acts, though the tariff bills were. Dem ocrats and Republican deserters had passed those bills, not to accomplish any definite economic result, but to create a political situation. They did not constitute fit legislation to apply to the business of this country. They were crude and destructive, and it Is fortunate for the whole country and to none of its people more than to Its Industrial workers that there was a strong hand In the White House to prevent them from becom ing laws. The Democratic party, If It would sincerely recognize conditions, would find Itself with plenty of reason "to be thankful that these ill-considered measures did not get upon the stat ute books. Had the Democratic steel and wool and cotton bills be come laws tho country would have experienced such a shock and set back that the Democratic campaign must have been thrown into utterly hopeless confusion. Tho country would have had more than a menace of the destructive policy of the Democrats; it would have had a realization of it, and to a consider able extent beforo the coming elec tion. Whenever the Democratic par ty has had a chance to inflict its tar iff policy upon the country it has for feited any confidence it had previous ly obtained, and suffered defeat. The same result would attend the en actment of the measures President Taft has vetoed. But the President was not consid ering politics; he was considering the interests of the country. It was not alone tho Interests of the manu facturer, who is entitled to a fair re turn for his investments and risks, but it Is that greater constituency, the millions of wage-earners which must be taken into account. Moro than all others they are dependent upon the American system of pro tection which the Republican party has so successfully maintained. Democratic theory amounts to noth ing when placed beside experience with Democratic practice; with Democratic tariff legislation which in the last administration of that party closed the industrial estab lishments of the country and sent thousands of persons to the soup houses. The Democrats In tho Congress Just adjourned have given a renewed demonstration of their unfitness to handle this great economic question; they cannot bo trusted with tariff revision. No party can bo whose policy is so obviously to destroy tho manufacturing industries of tho na tion, and deprivo wage-earners of living opportunities. Philadelphia Press. THE STANDARD OIL CONTRIBU TIONS. Something of a tempest in a tea pot has been stirred up over the counter-charges mado by Senator Penrose and Col. Roosevelt, and tho testimony of John D. Archbold, con cerning Standard Oil contributions to tho Republican campaign chest In 1004. Some years ago William R. Hearst published In his magazine what pur ported to bo a letter from John D. Archbold of tho Standard Oil Com pany to Senator Penrose, in which it was mentioned that a certificate of deposit for $25,000 was enclosed In accordance with a previous under standing. Recently this letter was resurrected by Senator William Fllnn's Pittsburg Leader, and an of fort mado to show that Senator Pen roso received -tho monoy as a person al bribo for his official action. It was quite natural that Senator Pon roso should resent this Imputation against his personal integrity and should explain to tho senato that tho money was received by him as a contribution from tho Standard Oil K. It. llAKDKNBKRGil Company to tho Republican cam paign fund of 1904, and that as chairman of the iPonnsylvanla state committee Mr. Penrose expended tho money to aid tho cause of Mr. Roose velt who was at that timo a candi date for the presidency, and that Mr. Roosevelt was aware of tho con tribution, and aware that it had been used for this purposo at the timo he directod his campaign manager Mr. Cortolyou, In a letter which was widely published, to accept no money from tho Standard Oil Company. Senator Penrose's statement appears to be confirmed by Mr. Archbold, and by Incontrovertible facts and cir cumstances, while Col. Roosevelt vigorously denies that ho had any knowledge of this contribution, or of the other contribution of $100,- 000 made In 1004 to Mr. Bliss, tho treasurer of tho Republican Nation al Committee, by tho Standard Oil Company, or of tho further request of Mr. Bliss to tho same corporation for an additional contribution. In the mean time, while Senator Pcn roso Is cleared of any suspicion of having pocketed tho $25,0u0, the Progressive organs and candidates are raising a vociferous cry that the Republican party In tho past has been corrupted by corporation bribes. It seems to us that the wholo matter has received much more at tention than it deserves. It is anci ent history at the best, and the prin cipal characters In tho transaction are dead and cannot speak for them selves. It was bound to act as it has acted as a boomerang to the Progressive leaders who injected it into the present campaign. It has been no secret that in the past the corporations of the coun try, both large and small, have con tributed freely to the national cam paign funds of both tho Republican and Democratic parties. As tho In terests of a corporation were likely to be affected favorably or unfavor ably by the policies advocated by either party, Its contributions for party success were mado according ly. Individuals contributed for ex actly the same reason. There was no moral turpitude Involved in either case. But In these later days when big corporations are so large ly under the supervision and con trol of the national government, and therefore subject, to some extemt, to the dictation of the party in power, It is undoubtedly the better plan to receive no campaign contributions from them lest It should be made to appear, whether rightly or wrongly, that the money was intended to purchase immunity from punishment of prosecution for violation of the laws. However, there is no charge that any political party has received money from a big corporation during the present campaign, and the vot ers of tho country should not permit their attention to be so diverted to the threshing out of old charges that they lose sight of tho real and living issues with which they are confront ed. The important question is not: who has contributed to Republican or Democratic party success in the past? but It Is: which party through its policies and leaders Is most likely to give just protection to tho Inter ests of all the people, and keep the wheels of real progress and true prosperity in motion? It is to this question that tho people are to re spond at the polls. WASHINGTON PARTY INDORSES W. 1). it. AINEY. The action of tho (Washington party of the 14th district at Tunk hannock In endorsing the nomina tion of Congressman Alney is to be highly commended. It evidences a proper conception In keeping the office of Congressman In this district out of tho factional contest over the presidency. There Is a sense in which tho of fice of Congressman Is of moro im portance to the peoplo than that of president. In any event it stands in tho closest relation to them of any federal office. Congressman Alney was renomi nated at tho primaries upon his open record of efficient service; was tho unanimous choice of tho Republican party. Thoso who aro now mem bers of the Washington party at that primary election voted for him; thus assuring him and the public of their commendation of his excel lent service as their representative at Washington.

How beauti fully she carried the Christ Into her dally life needs only tho testimony of all who knew her. Sho was an ardent bollever In God'B word.
