The following sensible words on tho subject of newspaper subscriptions, clipped from an exchange, should be born in mind by those who arc forovor finding fault because matters are not conducted to please them: "Every man has a right to take a newspaper or stop it, for any reason or no reason at all; but at the same time 1 there Is a certain responsibility attach ing to all actions, even to so trivial a one as stopping a newspaper because the editor says something he does not agree with. "Thoro is a complaint that newspaper editors lack fearlossness and honesty; that newspapers are too generally mere partisan organs which disregard the claims of truth and justice when politi cal interests are at stake. "There is too much truth in the charge, but lot us ask how it is possible for a fearless, honest, outspoken journal to live if every man is to cry, 'Stop mv paper!' whenever he reads something which does not accord with his views? "Tho men who insist that the news paper they read shall never say any thing contrary to their views aro tho ones who are, in a large measure, re sponsible for the craven cowardliness and the weathercock propensities of modern journalism. In a community composed entirely of those 'Stop my paper' peoplo, truo independent journal ism would bo an impossibility. "When you are convinced that a newspaper is dishonest and deceitful, stop it. When convinced that it is unclean, stop it. When it lacks enter prise and fails to give you the news, stop it. When some other newspaper gives you more of valuo, stop it. "But do not stop a nowspapor you believe to be honest, courageous, enter prising and clean, simply because the editor has written his own sincere views instead of yours or somebody else's, for if you do you are putting a premium upon insincere journalism and serving notice on tho editor that tho way to succeed is to writo what he thinks will best please his readers, instead of what ho honestly believes to be tho truth." Luzerne'# Vacant Judgeship. The appointment of a successor to the late Judge Bennett is anxiously awaited by tho people of th<T county. That tho selection will be made from among the Republican attorneys is a forcgono con clusion. The governor being a Republi can, and the deceased judge having been a member of the same faith, icavos no room for doubt on that point. Never theless, the appointment concerns the whole people, irrespective of party, and it is hoped that tho governor's choico will be one that will commend itself as strongly to one citizen as to another, to the Republican as well as tho Demo crat., to the Prohibitionist as well as the Populist. ' Among the numerous names mention ed for this high and important position there are some which tho local pride of various localities is responsible for, the object being to give this or that man and his locality some Inexpensive adver tising. There are others whom it would not be well to placo upon the bench— for their own good, and, what is more important, for tho county's good. Sifting the above classes from the lot leaves but a very few names which tho governor ought to consider. One of these is O. L. Halsey, Esq., of White lfaveu, one of the few attorneys of Luzerne county who commands the re spect of all classes and of all parties. If a Republican must bo appointed, Oovornor Hastings can win the grati tude of every man who wishes to keep tho Luzerne bench free from pettifogism by naming Mr. Halsey as the successor to Judge Bennett. Jlis ability, eminence, education and integrity fit him for the position, and if theso qualities count for anything he is the logical appointeo. A Springfield (Kan.) woman put on some of her husband's clothes to play burglar with her children, and when she came from u closet her ten-year-old daughter, who had taken a revolver from its hiding place, promptly shot at her. The bullet barely missed her.

The Machine Figuring on New Tax Hills to Got Money to Make Good tlie Treasury Dellclency. A Harrisburg correspondent writes: There are two problems of serious Im portance facing the treasury officials of Pennsylvania to-day. The first is how, for the sake of the Republican j machine, by whose favor they hold of- i lice, the fact that there is a practical deficit of nearly $3,000,000 in the state treasury can be disguised or explained satisfactorily to the voters. The second is, how they can get the additional money which will be absolutely needed for the coming year's expenses if ma chine rule Is to be continued, or unless an anti-Republican Legislature shall be chosen this fall and shall proceed, Immediately after convening, to stop all the steals and cut off all the extrav agances. As to preventing the people from learning that there Is a deficit, that It Is an ugly one, and that It will sooner or later produce no end of embarrass ment, both for the state and its cred itors, that Is simply impossible. The facts are too plain. The ordinarily in telligent man has but to take up the reports of the state treasurer and audi tor general and glance for a moment at the figures to satisfy himself RB to the melancholy and disgraceful truth. Each year, for the four years last past, the appropriations have exceeded the estimated expenditures, and the actual expenditures have been greater than the estimated Income by from two to four millions of dollars. For the year 1898 the treasurer's estimate of Income, leaving the sinking fund out of consid eration, was $11,191,628, while he found that, in going over the 1897 appropria tion bills and adding to their totals the overdue payments on previous appro priations, there would be needed during 1898, again omitting the sinking fund items, the enormous sum of $17,316,823. That sort of financiering, continued for a few years, would bankrupt even a Standard Oil trust. Corruption and waste have been con spicuous in Pennsylvania state govern mental matters for very many years, but It was not until Beaver's adminis tration began, in 1887, that the looters got things down fine and began stealing and squandering by wholesale. Un doubtedly there were moneys unneces sarily expended from 1883 to 1886 inclu sive under Pattlson, hut the total ex penditures were nevertheless compara tively modest. The following, taken from the reports of the auditor general, show the total expenditures during that period on current account—that is, less interest, loans redeemed and United States bonds purchased: 1883 $4,336,976 1884 4,383,613 1885 5.068,782 1886 4,367,751 Total $18,157,024 Average each year $1,539,256 During the same period there were state loans redeemed, Including the premiums paid thereon, aggregating $3,290,427, and United States bonds pur chased under the Humes' act amount ing to $5,305,814. These Items are not included In the above total. As an exhibit of how the machine has learned to get away with the taxpayers' money since then, the following ex hibit of the yearly expenditures under Hastings, added to the actual surplus left over from 1894 In the general fund, and the deficit that will show at the close of 1898 will be found edifying: The 1894 surplus.; $3,807,747 The 1895 actual expenditures.. .13.102.962 The 1896 actual expenditures.. .11.004,517 The 1897 actual expenditures.. .12.768.513 The 1898 estimated exp 17.073,452 The probable deficit 2,762.834 Total $60.820 027 Avernge per year 1895-98 $15,205,006 Average per year 1893-96 4.539.256 So that the Hastings administration has cost the state more than ten and one-half millions of dollars each year over and above the yearly cost of the first Pattlson administration. Again, I say, financiering of that sort would quickly bankrupt even a Stand ard Oil trust. What are they going to do about it? They don't know them selves. And. except for the disastrous effect it Is apt to have upon the/pros pects of Republican success In Novem ber, when the facts become generally known, as they certainly will be, they don't care much. They are Just now most concerned regarding the threat of certain school districts to test the state's right to hold moneys that have been appropriated to their use and that are due under the terms of the law. If that test should be made and the decision be against the state. It would not be surprising to see the treasury Issuing orders at no distant day In payment of salaries and other current expenses. Of course, if that result can be avoided, it will be, and In the hope of avoiding It the treasury officials are busily engaged In devising schemes to get more money out of the corporations as tax on their capital stock, etc. This will be done by raising the assessments as made In the auditor general's de partment, and If that plan will not work, then they will be prepared with a bill, to accomplish it, which they will urge upon the legislature next winter. If that legislature Is an antl-maohlne body, as is now hoped, it will address Itself rather to lopping off expendi tures than to devising new tax schemes. It is really amusing that "Boss" Mar tin should be lauded as a reformer. What Wanamaker says and what Swallow says all goes to prove that Jenks should be elected. All the "Pluck me store" proprietors In the field are candidates on the Re publican ticket. There are Thropp in the Bedford and Woodin in the Colum bia district running for congress as Republicans. The Philadelphia Times says that two influential Democratic papers are out for Swallow. One of them is a Pop ulist paper and the other a side organ in a county where there were but 1.105 Democratic voters in 1896. * A larger, brainier and In every way better Demo cratic pajrer in the same county is straight fcf the ticket. The voters are in the ettlf'At boat. QUAYISM IN FIGURES. How Four Years of Machine Rulo Con verted a Real .Surplus of Nearly Four Millions Into a Real Deficiency of Nearly Three Millions—Tho Figures From tho Records That Support Mr. Jonks' Charge That tho Stato Treas ury Is Bankrupt. Mr. Jenks has charged, upon the stump, that the state treasury is bank rupt and the astounding fact has not been and cannot be denied. Here are the figures, from the official records of the machine state treasurers, that prove it: GENERAL FUND RECEIPTS. 1895 $11,746,411 1896 12,265.756 1897 12,475,070 1898 11,191,628 Total $47,678,865 GENERAL FUND PAYMENT. 1895 $13,402,962 1896 11,004,517 1897 12,768,515 1898 17,073,452 Total $54,249,446 The figures for 1898 are the official es timates of the state treasurer. He cal culates the probable receipts, and he puts down the actual obligations. By the end of the year, therefore, If all the I obligations are In the meanwhile met, the state will have expended, during | the four years of Governor Hastings' administration, $G,570,581 more than its Income. But there was a real balance left over from Governor Pattison's last year, 1894. Auditor General Gregg (Republican! spoke of that balance in his annual re port for that year as follows: After noting that the nominal balance was $5,014,942, he said: "Of the amount paid Into the state treasury (as personal property tax) there remains to be paid back to the counties $1,273,578.09. This should properly be deducted from the reported balance, In order to ascertain the real, which deduction being made, would show a real balance of $3,807,- 747.62. "While we may point with pride to the existence of this large balance, it must not be too readily assumed that it will prove an unmixed blessing. Its very existence will Invite applications for its appropriation to purposes neith er necessary nor deserving. The reve nues of the state are at present ample to meet Its expenses if economically ap plied." And then this Republican auditor went on to recommend the appropria tion of the surplus "to some needed public use, whose benefits should be enjoyed by the entire people, without placing upon the commonwealth an annual charge therefor." Inheriting this "real surplus" of $3,- 807,747 from its predecessor, and ex pending in four years $6,570,581 in ex cess of Its Income, the Hastings ad ministration has exhausted the surplus and left the state $2,762,834 in the hole, j With "money to burn," so to speak, four years ago, the treasury now has. | if its debts were paid, nearly $3,000,000 less than nothing. I This Is Quayism fittingly illustrated in figures. STATTREFORM. Democrats No Eleventh Hour Con verts to the Doctrine Pertinent Extracts From Their Slate Platforms. The Democratic party is no eleventh hour convert to state reform. For years It has been presenting the ugly facts and urging amendment. When ever it has had opportunity it has loy ally redeemed Its pledges, to the full Lmit of its power. The following will be Interesting reading In this connec tion: In 1874 the Democrats of the state in their platform denounced the Republi cans for fostering corporations to the detriment and injury of the great agri cultural Interest: for having introduced frauds and corruption Into the depart ments of the state government and among the state officials generally, and for having failed to dismiss them when exposed and convicted. They demand ed a greater economy and the lopping off of every needless expense. In 1882 the Democrats elected their state ticket and secured a majority in the house on a platform devoted to state Issues and condemning Republi can theft and reckless expenditure. In 1885 the party thus said: "The long continued abuses and spoliations of the state treasury and the defiance of laws by its management make es sential a radical reform so that large sums shall not be accumulated by tax ation of the people to be distributed among the favored depositories of the state." The convention of 1887 denounced the Republican legislature for "its failure to pass the state revenue bill, which was urged by nearly all the people In the commonwealth and which, by its failure, made the people pay a million of dollars annually that should and would have been paid by corporations." It denounced, also, "the failure of the administration to attempt any correc lon of the wrong doing or exposure of the fraud or criminal neglect, as con fessing the supremacy of ring rule in Pennsylvania." The convention of 1890 again urged re form, condemned the Bardsley steal, and, following the election of the Democratic governor, Robert E. Pat tlson, the monies stolen by the said Bardsley and others were restored to the state treasury. A Rallying Cry Everywhere. All along the northern tier of coun ties, throughout the oil regions and in the iron manufacturing districts the name of the Democratic candidate for governor Is a talisman to conjure with, a rallying cry for multitudes of honest j men who stand stoutly together for honest politics. The western Pennsyl vania Democrats and independents are | flocking to the standard of George A. Jenks because they see in his oandi- I dacy an assurance of deliverance of , the state from the clutches of unclean j hands that have grasped power only for plunder and personal advantage. Wherever intelligent public opinion finds expression throughout the state there is ready and ample concession of Mr. Jenks' fitness for the office of gov ernor, and especially at this Juncture, when there is need for a stern executive hand at Harrisburg to restore old landmarks of honest state administru tlon.—Philadelphia Record.

Slitp, Will Get on Ncitr to I'ekln us Pos.l --!lo unit Then I.und taurine* to Mareh to Iho Capital A Foreign Fleet Is Assemb ling About Tientsin—Great Kxclteinent Prevails. Washington, D. C., Oct. s.—Admiral Dcvay lins been ordered to send the cruiser Baltimore and the gunboat Pet rel to Chinese waters. This action was taken by Secretary Long and upon Minister Conger's re port cabled to the State Department of rioting in Pekin, putting American lives and property in jeopardy. He an nounced, too, that a foreign fleet Is as sembling about Tientsin, and that some Ministers have ordered marines to Peking to guard their legations. Tills Government Is acting promptly and will afford protection to Ameri cans without waiting for lives to be sacrificed. The impression has prevailed that the situation Is far more serious than the public have been given to under stand, and tills was made stronger by tho hasty despatching of warships to China. In speaking of the matter however, Secretary Long said the de partment is only pursuing the usual course In such cases. No change is to he taken. Doth men-of-war will go up the Pel ho to Tientsin If they can, and from there the Petrel will proceed as close to Peking as possible. It is feared, however, that the Baltimore will not be able to pass beyond the Taku forts at the mouth of the river. Marines will be landed to protect American citizens. They will have to march to Peking from the nearest point that can be reached by the Petrel. Tientsin is thirty miles from the Yel low Sea and seventy from Peking. Some people grew apprehensive re garding Admiral Dewey's position be cause of the detaching of two of Ills vessels, but naval officers dissipated the fear by pointing out that the Ad miral now has in Manila Bay two pow erful monitors which he did not have when he destroyed Montojo's fleet. The work before Admiral Dewey at this time ho can successfully accom plish with the vessels remaining at Manila. It Is regretted at the department that thero Is no gunboat of the Helena class in Asiatic waters, which could sail up the river to Tientsin and be yond. The moral effect of warships close to the Chinese capital would -ab solutely insure safety to Americans. Yet it Is believed at the department that ample protection will be afforued by the measures adopted. Bnnkor Hill Men Capture Qi ehec.' ifl Quebec, Oct. (!.—For the first time In the history of America the Stars and Stripes, born by a body of United States soldiery, were unfurled in the citadel of Quebec. It was the occasion of the review of the Ancient and Honorable Artillery Company, of Boston, by the Governor- General of Canada. Following the Boston men were many veterans of the Civil War, several officers who partici pated In the late war with Spain and many of descendants of the veterans of the wars of t'he Revolution and of 18111; and these men, representlve cf all the military periods of the United States, receiving the nearty cheers gnd warm welcome of British people in one of the strongholds of Queen Victoria's domain was an interesting and im pressive picture to all who beheld it.

Washington, Oct. 4.—There Is good reason to believe that within the week thero will bo a large number of volun teer regiments designated for muster out, in addition to those already des ignated for release from service. One military authority says that It Is not unlikely that the 100,000 soldiers In tended to be rotalned will be reduced to about 70,000 men. These, with the regulars, would still leave an army of about 110,000 men, which Is considered to be ample for nonte and foreign ser vice. t.linntic Tnkxs His I 11-. New Rochelle, Oct. 4.—Alfred W.

Oue day this week a Boston party, ou a fishing trip to Moosehead, came across one of the old-school fishermen. He was up oft the mouth of Tomhegan stream and was fishing out of a lum berman's batteau. It developed later that he was the cook for a crew of river drivers. On the bank near at hand stood the cookee, or his helper. The cook had thrown about a peck of table refuse Into the lake in order to "tole" the fish, and over that lure he was having great luck. His pole was of the Jib-boom variety, and when a fish bit he would derrick it over his head Into the hushes where the cookee was stationed. The Boston men from their canoes watched operations with all the dis gust of the true sportsmen. "Got enough for supper yet?" shout ed the fisherman over his shoulder as he sent another great trout flumping Into the bushes. "No; better catch six or eight more," shrilled back the cookee. "Say, how many fish do you two fel lows usually eat for supper?" shouted a Boston man, who didn't understand the situation. "When you've cooked for twenty two river-drivers as long as I have," yelled the cook, derrieking anothei fish, "you'll know more about empty nail kegs." Hardly was this enigmatic utterance out when there came a tug at his line that was nothing short of tremen dous. He twitched. The fish didn'l come. He braced; set his jaws and pried. His line only sawed the hissing water. I "Play him! Play him!" screamed the excited sportsmen from the city. "Play your grandmother," bellowed back the cook. "I ain't here to play. I'm here to fish." And as he spoke he boosted over his head a fifteen-pound laker. Any man In the Boston crowd would have given $lO to have played him an hour at the end of an eight ounce rod. 'Twas too much for their nerves. They camo away. There is more catarrh in this section of the country thau all other diseases put together, and until the last few years was supposed to bo incurable.
