Senator William Fllnn, of riUftburg, who Is just book from Europo, ny he will Introduce '.n the next legislature a gonoral bill for pood road In all part of Pennsylvania. The supreme court decided recently that borough and township auditors aro entitled to compensation for their labor In connection with the preparing of tickets under the Baker ballot law used at the February eloctlons, the county being liablo for the same. Tho decision handed down by the Su preme Court last week thoroughly dis poses of the question whothorornotthe new law regulating the duties of burgess in the boroughs of this Stato stands. The decision says that It is general and spplys to all tho counties in the com monwealth. There were teachers' institutes held during the past scholastic year In sixty- bIx counties and four cities of Pennsyl vania. There were 34!) days dovoted to tho work.

Brook vllle Republican. t rora a paper on " The Press, Its re lation to the Public," road by Editor O. J. Sturgls, of the Unlontown Stand ard, before the G. A. R. Poet of that place, the following extract Is taken: There is no other business so intimately connected with our dally life about -which there are more false notions than thoso concerning the newspaper in its relation to men and things. It seems to be a sort of public, institution on which everybody has a claim, some right to say in its management or to kick if its policy does not suit htm. For that reason a newspaper is subjected to de mands that are unreasonable and unjust, If a man goes into the mercantile bus iness you do not expect to control his policy or shape his views simply because you buy his commodities. You take bis goods, he takes your money; that ends the transaction. The newspaper also does a legitimate merchandising business. It deals in news and adver tising space. That is its commodity, Now, what are the so called "rights' which the publio has in the newspa pers? Simply those which it pays for, and no more. The idea that a right to interfere in the oonduct of a newspaper because he is a subscriber or an adver tiser is based on a misconception of what the newspaper is, or is for. The subscriber buys the paper for its news. What then to the business status of the newspaper? It is a private enterprise, Its proprietors, whether individual, firm or company, publish it for profit, to make a living out of It, just as an In- dividual or corporation goes into the manufacturing business. The motive here is no lower, the calling no less honorable, than is he who enters any other vocation or calling of a semi-public character. The same obligation of moral and business integrity rests upon the press as upon other professions and businesses, and the fact that an oc cassional newspaper prostitutes its columns to unworthy ends no more con doms journalism as a profession or call' lng, than the legal or medical profession is made unworthy of publio confidence because of isolated oases of un professional or dishonorable conduct by one of its members. A newspaper gets no special credit for maintaining a high moral tone, but it gots plenty of censure if anything creeps into its columns to lower that tone. It is expected to be virtuous as a matter of course. So emi nent an authority as Charles Dudley Warner says that the moral tone of the average newspaper is higher than the average moral tone of the community in which it is published. The ohuroh, or this, that, or the other society that gives a benefit entertainment, or pays some noted man a big sum to deliver lecture should not think of imposing on the newspaper by asking It to advertise the affair liberally for weeks and then in payment grudgingly give a couple of complimentary tickets to the poor editor who ia struggling to pay his bills and bring the paper out on time. Rev. Johnson's Response. (CWinwn? from filh paye.) in all thoso cases where property has been destroyed, lives sacrificed, and ex pense incurred for unusual police and military protection. I said, too, that had tailoring men clung to the princi ples at first advocated by the Knights of Labor, they would have fared much bettor to-day. But, alasl they have de parted from the very best of those principles, and the majority of them have ignored the excellent advice of their former leader, Mr. Powdorly. Yes Labor should be well organized; but to accomplish anything it must act in harmony with tho laws of Ood and the land; it must keep a cool head, and not flash up like ignited powder every time things do not exactly suit it; it should know the truth or reason of whatever it approves or condemns; it should not bo carried away by exeltod or unwise loaders; It should not conflno Its reading to papers that give one side of tho labor question only, for these are usually Intended to Inflamo the anger of the working man. As an illustration of what may unintentionally end In mis representation in a newspaper giving one side of a quest ion, we have the lit tle item of statistics given In your reso lutions. The laboring man who looks at that will think himself poorly paid for contributing so much wealth to his coun try; then he becomes angry and Is willing to go out on a strike. Why does some one not toll the plain truth of the mat ter, that a part of that $13.00 went to the working man in the increased value of the ground upon which ho built his house; and another part of it became common public property. And why not toll something about tho class of labor that was counted In to bring tho aver age wages down to J1.23. I do foel that the laborer is often most shamefully oppressed In his wapes, but at the same timo I honestly believe ho makes his case appear worse than it really is. hope the timo is near at hand when men will receive bettor wages for their hard, honest toil, but I beg of you to be more patient until we can discover a way to regulate theso matters. It Is no easy work to solve these problems of labor. I am sorry to see Capital and Labor in an open war against each other, for Capital Is a nocessary thing and so is Labor. They are as man and wife Bna should live peacefully together. While many men or wealth have dealt unfairly with tho laborer yet all are not unfair. I am familiar with one company employing about ono thousand men, that often sacrlnces money to pro tect and assist Its employees. A few years ago I was familiarly acquainted with a gentleman who gave his life for one of his most troublesome employees; and I know of others to-day, who say they would be glad to do better by their men if they only dared to do so. One of these said In my hearing that he could not yield to the demands of his men, for if they got one thing thov would de mand so many more that they would either put him crazy or bankrupt him. This, brethren, is one of your mistakes. If you can only inspire Capital with confidence in you it will be a great gain to your cause. Here is the way to do it: I once joined a gang of carpenters, and the contractor witn wnom l was em ployed had been having so much trouble with his men that he became very severe and stern with everybody. I came in contact with him frequently, but was always obedient and respectful. tie seeraea, tnougn, to think tnat i thought a little too much of myself and began humiliating me, lest I should prove to be another troublesome em ployee. I refused to be humiliated in the least, and told my employer that he must treat me as a gentleman for that was what I was trying to be. I assured him that my work would be done with the utmost care and speed, and that I would be reliable in every way. My employer replied, "If I could believe you l would do more than you ask, but my men have all disappointed me." He did do more than I asked, and treated me as a friend. He often remarked afterwards, that if he could have confi dence in men he would be glad to treat them better. Make your employers believe that they can put oenfldenoe in you. and it will doomore good than a strike. Now here is another matter for you to think over: How are we to help you unless you help yourselves. In and around Reynoldsvllle are numerous no ble Christian laborers who are trying bard to lead correct lives and bring up tbelr amines In honor. Mow why does not your organization, if it is Interested in its own welfare, throw some protec tion around its own members. You owe an apology to God and man for the awful profanity that goes on unreproved about these mines. Who will answer for the ruined hearts and lives of the boys taken to the mines? Again, my brethren, If you are lntorosted In your own welfare, I would like to know what you are as an organization, or as indi viduals doing with reference to tiod s Holy Sabbath. Some of your number are as true as steel and pure as gold. I know both Catholics and Protestants among your number whom 1 admire with all my heart lor their zeal In serv ing God, and their respect for His Sab bath. But where are the rest of you? There are free seats in all our churches, and you have a great deal more support to give, than you have to withdraw. I am glad to the very bottom of my heart that one sermon has shaken up this whole oommunity, even though the preacher did get criticised. I am glad that you have been brought to think upon the very points mentioned in your resolutions, even though a misunder standing has brought it about. But here is another point still: If you are all slnoerly interested in yourselves and families, what are you going to do about the saloons? These do the labor ing man more harm than the capitalist has ever done, and yet vou keep them right with you. In and around Reyn oldsvllle I think there are ton saloons. and if the laborers did not furnish the money to run them there would not be enough other people here to keep one going comfortably. At least fifty thous and dollars per year would have to be paid over to these institutions to enable them to thrive as thoy do now. Fifty thousand dollars for ten years would make half a million!!! Now gentlemen If you want to go on a strike, strike against tho saloon; and If you withdraw your support from anything, withdraw It from your bitterest foo, the saloon. That fllt.y thousand dollars a year would put up a college in your own town, pay the professors and cducato your boys and girls. And if you happened to run short of money then, there is still another way to save another fifty thous and. If at your next mooting you will appoint a committee to Inform our saloon keepers that you have no use for them, you will In a few dnys find your praises sounded all overthls land. Mr. Powdor ly told you something like this, and I know he Is your friend. The Chicago strikers began to loose the sympathy of thinking people tho moment it was ro ported that the strike was first planned in a saloon. For the sake of yourselves, your homes and all that is good, put down the saloon. There are good and temperate men among you who have long prayed for the overthrow of the saloon, why not turn to their assistance and help save your money and your boys. Now My Dear Sirs., as I shook nt) Capital so have I shaken up Labor, al though with more mercy. I have shaken and beaten you both, as I did my car- puts last week, not to destroy you, but to niako you (Mean and wholesome. I know what it Is to toil hard as a labor er, and could not possibly be tho enemy of any working man. If I deceived you with false hopes, and filled you with rage against your employers, then I should be your enemy indeed; but I have been just and truthful, as a faithful friond. "Faithful are the wounds of a friend," therefore, bollove me your well wisher. H. R. Johnson. Wanted.
