The Covnentton and Its Candidates.
From the Philadelphia Record.
There was no lack of partisan onthu
slasm In Mr. Hanna's convention.
Every disaffected Interest had been
placated, every disturbing Influence
quieted, and the opening of the session
found the way clear for the early com
pletion for the Republican national
ticket. The machinery worked smoothly
and expeditiously, and almost befere the
delegates and spectators knew It Mc-
Klnley and Roosevelt were sprung upon
tho American public as full-fledged
candidates for the two higest public
offices within the gift of the people.
The delegates and alternates shouted
themselves hoarse, and the outside
throng of spectators, Infocted by sym
pathetic enthusiasm and Inspired by
the stirring scene, contributed liberally
to tho excitement of the occasion. It
was a great day for the practical poli
ticians, who Insist upon combining
theoretic high -principles with strictly
practical mothods for attaining success
at tho polls.
By a somowhat unusual reversal of
the campaign aspect of the ticket It was
made to appear to tho convention that
the matchless McKlnley, who of his
own motion has brought abaut prosper
ity, set all the factory wheels humming,
won great victories on land and sea and
raised tho prices of American wheat
and cotton to the topmost notches,
needed a conspicuous public figure as his
co-candidate on tho national ticket.
And so, after the tumult and the shout
ing for McKlnley had died out, there
was presented tho spectacle of New
York's reform governor abandoning a
Hold of effort In which he might be of
vast public service for a mere camera
distinction.
Instead of giving good state govern
ment to over 5,000,000 citizens of New
York, he will go to Washington, if
clectod, and wait in obscurity for a
dead man's shoes. Republican success
In tha forthcoming national election,
whatevor else may be Its outcome, will
practically put an end to the public
career of "Toddy" Roosevelt. It Is
doubtful if he himself appreciates at
this tlmo the full scope and aignlficance
of the sacrifice he has made; but the
voteran politicians who egged him on to
It know exactly what it means.
There can be no doubt of the confident
assurance ef triumph which new fills the
minds of tho party magnates. Opening
In perfunctory dullness, and continuing
for two days in an atmosphore of po
litical commonplace, the Republican
convention during Its final session man}
lfested a power to expross strong fad
ing and to Indicate patriotic enthusiasm
which quite surprised the majority of
those in attendence as spectators!
Whether prearranged or spontaneous,
the Impresslvo demonstration that fol
lowed upon the announcement of Mr.
McKlnley's name as a candidate for the
presidential office was titanic and mag
nificent. To find its parallel it would
bo necessary to recur to tho scene after
the nomination of Mr. Bryan at Chi
cago, four years ago.
The Republican candidates have
every reason to bo proud of their treat
ment at the hands of the national con
vention of their party organization.
With equal favor from the American
people—but that Is quite another Item
In the public accounting te be takon
between now and November 0 next.
H. H. Rogers, of tha Standard Oil
Company, Is said to havo announced to
the Spanish government that tweaty-slx
United Statos senators stood ready to do
as the company desired, and to have
offered to lobby through tho purchase
of the Spanish West Indies for ten
per cent of the proceeds. This Is stated
In an official report made to the Spanish
government by Its special agent in the
matter. The worst of tho whole busi
ness is that Mr. Rogers' alleged state
ment is probably correct.
FROM THE PHILIPPINES.
Charles K. Soloraoa Write! leterestleg ly
of tha Campaign.
The following letter is from Charles
R. Solomen, a young man who has
numerous friends In and around Free
land, and was written to his sister, Mrs.
R. M. Stetler, of Lehlghton. Through
the courtesy of Mrs. Stetler the TBI
BUNK is permitted to publish the letter
in full.
Colasl, P. X., April 22, 1900.
Dear Sister.—No doubt you think I
have forgotten you, as I have not
written for a long time. But since I
last wrote you I have been in expedi
tions under a tropical sun through
northern and southern Panay. I havo
not written a letter since the forepart
of last February, for I have had no
opportunity to write. At times we did
not get news frem 110110 for two weeks;
even now I shall have to send this
letter without a stamp. 1 doubt if there
Is a stamp within fifty inllos of here,
unless It be a Filipino.
We left 110110 February 10, under
Gonoral Hughes, and engaged the enemy
first at Antique, where we lost sixteen
men killed and wounded. But It was
not nty first oxperlonce at making a
human target, as we landed in 110110
only two weeks before, after being out
on a sixty days' campaign, where we
fought two battles and several skir
mishes.
Whon the bullets began to to sing
"We Don't Care If You Never Come
Back," I wished I were "Ten Thousand
Milos Away." That feeling soon wore
off and when a bullet would make a
hole In the air close to us I would say,
"You'll havo to coma closer If you want
me."
Our battalion commander, Major Sal
ford, was leading his men and when ho
reached the bridge he said: "Como for
ward, men, they —" He never finished
it, for he fell with three holes through
his body. He was a good officer and
never asked his men to go whore he
would not.
Wo pushed forward, the engineers
repairing the road as we went, and took
the towns of Slbalon, San Pedro and
San .lose without the loss of a man.
On the road to Santa Cruis wo had an
opportunity to see the artillery make
the niggers "vamose."
It was open country, and abeut 2,000
yards ahead we could see thom coming
out to their trenches. Riley brought up
one of his 3 and 2-10 guns. Three well
directed shells put them out of business.
It there Is anything that will do a man's
heart good when the bullets are coming
thick It Is one of those 3 and 3-10 peace
commissioners.
Entering Tlgbaun de Malsbon, we
lost one man. Tlgbaun de Malabon was
tbe Insurgents stronghold In the south.
Beyond de Malabon Company C charged
a hand of the dusky skinned cowards,
capturing a well-equipped hospital and
"convlcary" besides many prisoners. I,
personally, captured a fine horse and
the uniform of a Filipino colonel, an
other fellow of my company getting the
colonel himself. We got also a fine
portrait of Agulnaldo In full uniform,
with his autograph on the margin. Re
turning byway of Lebatnan nothing
eventful happened.
We arrived In Carltou February 15,
where we did guard duty for a week.
Then we went aboard a small steamer
called the El Cano, and the next morn
ing started up the wet cost of Panay,
anchoring at 4 p. m,, February 25, In
the Daugpan gulf. After the gunboats
began firing, we wero landed under
heavy fire. Here our company lost one
man killed and one man wounded. All
poor Shale said was, "I have got It,"
than fell.
This was tbe heaviest (Ire that I hope
I shall ever have to face. Several times
splinters and dirt were thrown Into iny
face. We returned to Colasl, where we
are now. Home say that the war Is over.
I should not make a guess on It, but
the Insurgents aro pretty well scattered.
In your last letter you spoke of cold
wuatber. It almost gave me a chill.
Here the rainy season is over, and It Is
as fine July weather as 1 ever saw.
There Is a lovely beach net over a hun
dred yards from our quarters and we
go In bathing every day.
Hoping to bo able to write to yon
oftener In the future, I remain, your
soldier brother, Charles R. Solomon.

The Coarft Imposed Upon.
Freeland Corr. Hnzleton Plain Speaker.
The examination of candidates fer thi
office of mine Inspectors in tho Third
and Fourth anthracite districts com
mences in tbe Union street school build
ing, Wllkesbarre, Monday, June 25, at
10 o'clock. The board of oxamlners
consists of A. C. Lelsenrlng, mining
engineer; W. A. Lathrope, mining engi
neer; George Meneeley, Inside superin
tendent at Sandy Run; John Gilhooley
aad Edward H. Williams, whose occu
pations are unknown to the writer.
This board Is not constituted accord
ing to law. Some person or persons
have Imposed on the court when tho
appointments were made, as the follow
ing extract from the law governing the
case clearly shows:
Article 11. Section IV. The said board
of examiners shall be composed of three
reputable coal miners In actual practice
and two reputable mining engineers,
all of whom shall be appointed at the
first term of court In each year, to hold
their places during the year.
This Is the law and the fact that
George Meneeley, who has been a mine
foroman for M. S. Kemmcrer & Co. at
Sandy Run for the past twelve years,
and who now occupies the position of
general mine manager at that place, has
been palmed off on the court as a "miner
In actual practice," affords ample proof
that the court has been Imposed upon
In making the appointments and that
there Is a sinister motive back of it all
that is not very creditable to the parties
concerned.
Meneeley Is not a miner, and his
appointment Is a direct violation of the
intent and spirit of tho law and ronders
tho coming examination and decision of
the board as at present constituted
an Illegal farce.
Railroad Work Slnpeadad.
In accordance with Its recently an
nounced policy of retrenchment of ex
penses, the Lehigh Valley Railroad Com
pany has notified Joseph Ilendler to sus
pend work on the new iron bridge at
Bridgeport, below White Haven. The
bridge Is to bo a glrdor structure, 800
feet long, with five piers. Mr. Handler
has the contract for tho piers and
abutments, all of which are well ad
vanced. He has had about sevoaty men
at Bridgeport and about thirty stone
cutters at his quarry on the mountain.
Tho bridge spans one of tho old dams of
the Lehigh Coal and Navigation Com
pany, and the water Is thirty feet deep
at the point where the piers are built.
Mntcbler, Connelly ,t Donnelly, who
are making the extensions between
Packerton and Hlatlngten, stoppod all
heavy work this week. Herman Rlobo
A Sons, who are enlarging the Bast
Mauch Chunk yard, shut down yester
day. John F. Dolan, who has the con
tract for tho filling for two additional
tracks in front of the East Mauch
Chunk station, has received the same
notice.
NOTHINQ BUT AIR.
In a day we should exhaust a small
roomful, ten feet long, seven feet wide
and ten Inches high.
For a year's supply we should re
quire a reservoir or hall 100 feet square
and a shade over 28 feet high, and the
supply for a long life of eighty years
would be contained In a large hall 1,000
feet long, COO feet wide and 42 feet
high.
It Is, however, absurdly small when
we consider that at this rate of con
sumption It would take a man five
days and nine and one-half hours to
exhaust the air In a small room 15 feet
square and 10 feet high.
Any form of exertion, however,
greatly Increases the consumption of
air. Thus, If we saunter at two miles
an hour we require Just twice as much
air as when sitting In our armchair;
and at four miles an hour nothing less
than 2,300 cubic Inches will satisfy us.
Taking an average consumption
throughout life of one cubic foot of
air every two minutes, we reach Bome
very Interesting conclusions. Thus, an
hour's supply of air could be contained
In a trunk five feet long, three feet
wide and two feet deep.
"Man wants but little here below"
Is an axiom which applies markedly to
the quantity of air which Is necessary
to Bupport life. It is estimated that
when a man la at rest he consumes
500 cubic Inches of air every minute,
an allowance which, at the first glance,
appears large.

If William McKlnley would resign
the presidency at once and accept that
college professorship, which It Is said
Is awaiting him, It would probably be
well for the country.—Atlanta Journal.
Senator Beverldge Is a young man of
so many accomplishments that the Re
publicans can use one of his speeches
for campaign purposes while the Demo
crats circulate the other.—Chicago
Record.
"Our flag," says President McKlnley
In an address last August, "does not
mean one thing here and another thing
In Cuba or Porto Rico." Have we
changed our flag since then? —Louis-
ville Courier-Journal.
The law says, "Thou shalt not steal
a horse," and the punishment Is con
finement in the penitentiary. The law
says, "Thou shalt not form a trust,"
and the punishment Is confinement In
the penitentiary. But If a man steals
a home they hound him with blood
hounds; If he organizes a trust, they
give him a banquet.—W. J. Bryan.
A liberally attended entertainment
In West Virginia tne other day was a
fight between a wildcat and a bulldog
The animals were confined in a wire
cage 15 feet square. At the end of 30
minutes the dog was dead, but the cat
was uninjured. It Is pleasant to know
that cock fighting has been stopped In
the Philippines in the Interests of civ
ilization. —Boston Transcript.
When American free traders sought
a peaceful alliance with England
through the channels of civilizing
trade, nothing was more obnoxious to
the tribe of McKlnley than the Brit
ish flag; but now that an alliance for
wars of conquest Is on the diplomatic
stocks the British flag has become
with the tribe of McKlnley almost as
dear a fetich as "Old Glory."—The
Public.
Why do we redeem our pledge to
extend equal rights to Hawaii and not
to Porto Rico? Why do we open our
arms to the Islands of the Pacific and
turn our backs on the Islands of the
Atlantic? Why do the Republicans In
congress thus stultify the nation? A
bare handful of lobbyists, representing
the Bugar and tobacco Interests, and
these Interests alone, have demanded
this sacrifice of the nation's welfaro
and the Republican party's future.—
Inter-Ocean, Chicago.
A young man out of work has writ
ten the superintendent of Bellevue hos
pital, New York, saying he has been
reduced to want by enforced Idleness
and having pawned all he has. even to
his wife's wedding ring, he would sell
his blood to some patient In need of It.
The superintendent wrote that there
were no patients with empty veins that
would patronize him. There are, evi
dently, some spots where the overflow
of our supposed prosperity has not
reached.—People's Advocate.
The drug people want the revenue
stamp duty taken off their products.
The bankers are moving to have It
taken off of checks, the lawyers think
It ought to be taken off legal documents
and ths Insurance people off of policies.
The only classes who don't seem to
care a continental about It are the tel
egraph and express companies, and
they hustled around and bought up the
federal courts and saddled their share
of the war tax on their patrons, so
they can nfTord to be Indifferent about
It.—Bradford Argus.
In regard to drunkenness In the Phil
ippines, It is unfortunate for Bishop
Potter, of New York, that just as we
get his assurance that he saw no
drunken men In Manila In his brief
visit there the court martial sentences
on a major and two lieutenants to dis
missal from the army for appearing
drunk In the streets of Manila should
have been made public. If officers are
drunk In public, what can be expected
of the men, especially when the bars
. arc let down, atld there are 450 saloons
In Manila now to 30 when the Span
lards held sway?—Norristown Register.
From the time when George Dewey
shot the Spanish tubs In Manila bay
full of holes up to the day when mil
lions of people cheered his passage up
the streets of New York he could have
had anything In America for the ask
ing. He didn't want a thing, not even
the presidency. He refused everything
except a house and the Widow Hazen.
Having acquired her, he has decided to
accept the presidency. You may bet
Mrs. McKlnley has Informed her sweet
William that that woman Is Just a
scheming, tricky old thing, and that
It's a pity about George. And so It Is.
—Venango Spectator.
Now, man to man, what are we plain
people to think of such a man, who
does not seem to know his own mind
for two consecutive hours, and who
asks Mr. Sperry to vote In opposition
to his message to congress? In the last
quarter of a century there has not been
an occupant of the presidential chair, •
from Rutherford B. Hayes, who ve
toed a free silver bill passed by a Re
publican congress, to Orover Cleve
land, who forced the repeal of the
Sherman purchasing clause, who ever
displayed such uncertainty In leader
ship, such absolute subserviency to the
will of others.—New Haven Register.
Those arguments that are made,
that the Inferior race are to be treatpd
with as much allowance as they are
capable of enjoying; that as much Is
to be done for them as their condition
will allow —what are these arguments?
They are the arguments that kings
have made for the enslaving of the
people In all ages of the world. You
will find that all the arguments of
king-craft were always of this class;
they always bestrode the necks of the
people—not that they wanted to do It,
but because the people were better off
for being ridden. ♦ • Turn it
every way you will—whether it come
from the mouth of a king as an ex
cuse for enslaving the people of his
country, or from the mouth of men
of one race—it la all the same old ser
pent.—Abraham Lincoln at Chicago,
July 10, 1858. i f
UNCERTAIN TELEPHONES.
They Are Cheap In Switzerland But
They Drive Strangere Mad.
| "I noticed some reference In the
paper the other day to the cheapness
of telephone service In Switzerland,"
Bald a Now Orleans broker 1 recently
returned from an extended visit
abroad. "1 can vouch for the fact
that the tolls are very low, but the
way the exchanges are run Is well
calculated to drive a man to drink.
While I was at Berne last fall I de
sired to 'phone to a friend who was In
a small village in the adjoining can
ton, although forty miles distant. 1
was told that I would find a public
Instrument at the post-offlce, and with
a good deal of difficulty I located the
'bureau,' as they termed it, In a suite
of rooms up Btalrs. A very military
looking old gentleman with a white
moustache received me and listened
politely to my request. It was then
about ten In the morning, and he In
formed me with many apologies that
I would have to call again, as the line
was only open between two and four.
1 was annoyed, but presented myself
on time, and was then put through a
course of Interrogations that reminded
me of an application for life Insur
ance.
"When I had satisfied the old gen
tleman that I was a harmless Ameri
can crank, and that my Intentions
were strictly honorable, he called up
the village exchange and directed
them to send a messeigger to the hotel
after my friend. Another long wait
ensued, and when the bell finally rang
the manager had a mysterious confab
In monosyllables with the other end
of the line. 'I am very sorry,' he said
at last, 'but your friend will not be
permitted to use the telephone to
day; he has forgotten to bring his
passport.' That was the last straw,
and I—woll, I said things, picturesque
things, lurid things. The old gentle
man told me it was necessary to ob
serve precautions to prevent the ser
vice being used by military spies. I
never got to talk with my friend, but
learned that the charge would have
been only four cents for three min
utes." New Orleans Times-Democrat.
BLACK WALNUT GOES ABROAD.
Btates Along the Mississippi Are
Berched for Fine Trees.
The great size often reached by the
black walnut, the richness of the dark
brown wood, the unique beauty of the
grain sometimes found In burls, knots,
feathers and In the curl of the roots,
all conspire to make this the most
choice and hlgh-prlcod of our native
woods.
Twenty-five years ago walnut was
extensively used in the manufacture
of fine furniture and finishings In this
country, but manufacturers adroitly
drew attention to the beauty of darkly
stained quartered oak, and the use of
the rarer wood has greatly declined.
But all this time the search for the
fine black walnut logs has gone on
systematically, though quietly, the
trade attracting little attention,
though the volume of lumber handled
has been large.
The great source of supply has been
the central portions of the Mississippi
valley. The walnut IB at home In the
rich alluvial bottom lands of the west
ern streams and in the stony lime
stone soils of the hills and mountains,
and In such localities the buyers have
left few trees unsurveyed.
Throughout eastern Kansas, Mis
souri and Arkansas, as well as the
States along the Ohio and Its tribu
taries, may be seen a few logs at this
little station, a car or two at that,
with carefully hewn sides and painted
ends, ready for the market.
If you ask where this market Is
you will find that the great bulk of
this rare lumber goes to purope.
While we have been led into an en
thusiastic admiration for fine oak,
stained according to the degrees of
antiquity it Is supposed to represent,
our European cousins have been pay
ing fancy prices for the rich black
walnut that we have allowed to go
"out of the fashion."—Berea Quar
terly.
The Btamp Question.
Meaning that she should purchase

"Don't you know that a druggist
doesn't like to sell stamps In that
way?"
"Is It possible he Is afraid I won't
pay him?" she questioned spiritedly.
"Pay him?" he demanded. "What
do you mean?"
"Why, I purchased four yesterday,
and as I forgot my purse I asked him
to charge tbem—the mean thing."
"Have mercy!" he cried. "Woman,
spare me any more!"—lndianapolis
Sun.
A Question of Dignity.
"What makes you keep forever talk
ing about humidity?" asked the Ir

"I know it. You don't think I'd put

weather with a monosyllable like
'hot,' do you?"— Washington Star.
Justice.
"Judge, they are accusing you of
favoring your friends and being too
severe on your enemies when you get
a chance at them."
"Oh, well, It will average up all
right in the long run, so justice In the
abstract Is none the loser."—lndian
