EDITORIAL.
HE AMUSES US.
"T SICKLES" is an "amoosin little
cuss," and consumes over a
column of valuablo spaco in last
Monday's Gazette to inform Its
readers that he "unfortunately"
used the word usual whon he should
have said "handsome." As our
point was that his statemont was
not in accordance with the facts,
and as he now, after floundering
through, over and among a lot of
adjoctives, adverbs and such, ad
mits the fact ; his attempt to argue
that the majority of 329 in Piko, if
carried through the State in the
same ratio, would have given the
Democrats 200,000, moro or less
may be a soothing balm to pour on
his lacerations, hut it is a weak
rope with which to pull himself out
of tho hole he went into. Next time
he wishes to give himself a boost
we advise him to take hold of his
boot straps. I. Siskles enlightens
us as to the valuable service which
Hon. F. A.Kessler rendered his con
stituonts, by saying that we "ought
to know that lie has done all that
could reasonably be expected of a
member of the hopeless minority,'
and then to ho a little more explicit
he asks if "it was not due to his
suggestion that the State appropria
tion was made part of the Hamilton
road law.', Now, I. Sickles, we
asked you to point out one service,
just one, and you come at us with
an interrogation, wmcn we may
answer later on. Not content with
one question, he asks two more.
viz : "Has he not labored faithful
ly for the restoration of the fishing
privileges?" and "haa he not, in
short, given genoral satisfaction?'
We give it up, and I Sickles like,
answer his questions by asking
others. Whore was the Hon, F. A
when the Forestry hill was being
passed, which bill allows the State
to buy and hold our wild binds for
the benefit of other parts of the
Commonwealth, withoutjwiying any
taxes theroou? And how did he
vote on that bill? And will his con
otitueuts feel a "general sutisfao
tion" to go down in their pockets
for the increased amount of tuxes
they most necessarily pay, because
thousands of acres are taken out -of
the assessed valuation of the county
and held by the State? and another
If a Democratic member can do
nothing for his constituents because
he is a hopeloss minority, why con
tinue the farco of fe-ujiugouo? Why
not solid 11 man who can he of some
benefit to them beeiiuso he belongs
to the majority? Tlio subject of
suckers anil eels lias been suen a
proliflo field for Democratic cam
paigning in this county, and so
many of the former have been
caught by specions promises of can
didates to "repeal and wipe out the
obnoxious fish and game laws" that
we are willing to admit without
question that the Hon. F. A. labor
ed most assidionsly and faithfully
in their behalf, and without being
invidious, wo may point to ono nl
least who seems to have the hook
far down in his anatomy. Our
thanks are duo to the genial peda
gogue for affording an opportunity
to discuss the merits of our present
representative, and his claims for
re-election, and wo hope now that
ho has opened the ball ho will em
brace the opportunity ho sought, to
furnish soiuo of the reasons in n
straightforward and categorical
manner. They will be edifying to
the people, enlightening to our vis
ion and, perhaps, .astonishing to
the Hon. F. A. himself. Tho Press
did not begin this campaign of edu
cation ; it sprung from tho fertile
mind of ono whose natural bent lie.

Western line to tho 124th degree

Increasing the Circulation.
One result of the recent issue of
government bonds will be a consid
erable increase in the money in cir
culation in this couutry. The num
ber of small bidders for bonds, and
the fact that the mo ey to pay them

money market or the banks, indi
cates that considerable hoarded
monoy has been called forth by the
oortaintyof safe investment. Such
money has not been really in circu
lation, but the government will
immediately put it there in payment
for the "sinews of war." The use
of the bonds by tho banks will also
increase the volumo of tho available
money to no little extent. Evident
ly the banks which can use the
bonds as a basis for issuance of notes
(currency), can use thorn to better
advantage than any one else. Tho
banks, therefore, will ultimately
hold a goodly share of these bonds
and use them in this way, with the
above stated result. Stockman and

(Special Correspondence.)
Philadelphia, Aug. 15. The beginning
of American victories over Spain was
not at Manila, but at Appomattox.
When General Grant said to the beaten
and broken Confederates after the sur
render, "Keep your horses; you will
need them to plow your fields," hs
sounded the high keynote of that con
sistent Republican policy which has
resulted In making this nation a union
Indeed, not a mere collection of com
munities pinned together with bay
onets. This has been brought strongly
to mind by two events which have
taken place here within the last few
days the visit of the survivors of
Pickett's division as the guests of Phil
adelphia Grand Army men, and the
meeting of the Pennsylvania Associa
tion of War V- terans' clubs, for the
purpose of reminding the old soldiers
and their sons, to whom the war of the
sixties is only heroic hearsay, that
there in a soldier ticket on the Repub
lican corner of the ballot this year
which deserves their votes as repre
sentative of both the past and the
future of the country.
However they might appear at the
first glance, no two meetings were ever
more consistent with each other. Both
represented the comradeship of all true
soldiers, who, In reaching out the hand
of gallant recognition toward all brave
men who stood In the opposing line, do
not f onset the fraternity of men who
have slept under the same blanket and
raced the same fire. A veteran of Pick
ett's who left a large fraction of him
self In Pennsylvania after that last
mad dash at Gettysburg and now walks
on crutches made this point very well.
He was a typical back country virgin
Ian neighbor, no doubt, to that one
who shocked one of the hallboys at
the swellest hotel in Philadelphia by
appearing upon the ground floor after
midnight, in sock feet, with his sus
penders hanging from his shoulders
and the Ice water pitcher In his hand,
inquiring where the pump was but he
Is a notable man In his neighborhood,
has been continuously justice of the
peace for 20 years, and served a term
In the legislature. And while he might
not be up to date In some peculiarities
of modern civilisation, he Is full of
homely common sens and useful
knowledge.
Experience teaches the observing
that there Is -many a man who Is liable
to blow out the gas who Is nevertheless
tit to make laws for the directors of tha
gas company. The 'squire said:
"When General Grant started your
party on that high plane of treatment
of our people he put us on our honor.
We were down on our backs, and the
Republican party was throned In abso
lute power. In our anticipation It was
only a question how many of our lead
ers you would consider It necessary to
hang. You might have treated us as the
prostrate Inhabitants of conquered Isl
ands, and you received us instead as
fellow citizens, and lived up to your
proclamations that you had been fight
Ing with us for four years oiily to
keep us In that relation. Much has
been said of the magnanimity, the gen
erosity, the charity and so on ot the
treatment of the south by the north
after the war, but it took the present
war to call proper attention to the fore
sight and broad statesmanship of the
Republican party In following the pol
Icy it has pursued. McKlnley has
shown himself worthy of the example
of Lincoln and Grant. When he contln-
ued Fit Lee at Havana and then gave
old Joe Wheeler the chance he sought
to go out and get shot at under the old
flag he warmed our hearts and turned
a clinch on the good work of 30 years.
"What do we folks think of He
Klnley? What did you think In '64
when It was tried to put somebody else
In Lincoln's place to settle the Job? No
president since Lincoln haa grown upon
the country after his election so faBt
as McKlnley, and there are a lot of u
down south who never voted anything
but a Democratic ticket who are not
only going to be for McKlnley nex
time, but who are for the ticket that
represents McKlnley this fall. Tha
party that has fought the war must b
the party to settle the Issues growing
out of the war, now as In '65. We may
be lust at the beginning of our troubles,
and all the nations of this earth must
be taught that thlB country stands
rlRht behind Its president, as the noit
stood by Lincoln. His defeat would
have been worth an army to the Con
federacy then, and any doubtful soun
that would go out to the world from ou
voting places this fall might cost us an
other war. You we have one party
in this country which has proved It
self capable not only of conducting
great war, but of gathering Its fruit
and dealing with the questions which
follow, and the enthusiasm for Its sue
cess in the elections this year Is Just
plain horse sense. And so." he
added, with a sweeping gesture to
ward the room where the war vete
rans were declaring their loyalty to the
Republican soldier ticket, "so is that.
I wouldn't give shucks for an old sol
d'er who wouldn't stand by another old
soldier whenever he got a chance.
The War Veterans had a remarka
bly representative and earnest meeting,
by the way. On the roll call 51 coun
ties responded, and. before the presl
dent of the association, Colonel Robert
B. Beath, finished bis opening address.
a number of others came In. They were
men whose names stand for something,
too. As a sample, take this committee
on resolutions:
Hon. George w. Hood, of Indiana,
chairman; Thomas Q. Sample, of Al
legheny; T. A. Cochran, of Armstrong
Captain Fred M. Yerger, of Berks; Hon.
W. T. Davlea, of Bradford; Major
T. Ensmlnger, of Dauphin; Hon. Mil
ton 8. Lytle, of Huntingdon: Captal
B. A. Craig, of Jefferson; Colonel Os
car L. Jaokson, of Lawrence; General
John P. Taylor, of Mltllin; James 8.
Morrison, of Philadelphia; Hon. D.
Horner, of Somerset; Colonel Chill W,
Hazzard. of .Washington, and Colonel
M. A. McKown, of Wyoming.
In the resolutions, which were adopt.
ti with fervd ufulauao, after oongrittj
ulatlng the country on the heroism of
Its young soldiers who are now In the
field, and warmly endorsing President
McKlnley for his conduct, at the war,
the association declared as follows:
"That, in the coming election, we
pledge our hearty and unanimous sup
port to our comrades, as well as their
associates upon the Republican ticket,
and thus Bhow by our votes that those
who stood by our country's flag and
defended It In the hour of need have
not been forgotten by a grateful peo
ple, and that such sons our common
wealth delights to honor.
"That It is the sense of the veterans
of the war of the rebellion, and we be
lieve It to be the Judgment of all the
patriotic citizens of this commonwealth,
hat, as In the year 1S6I, so now the
soldiers in the field should have the
right to vote, and our state officials
should early take the necessary steps
to have this privilege accorded eveiy
soldier and sailor now in the service
of the country.
In 1864 the Democratic party of this
state declared that the legislation Bl
owing, our soldiers and sailors In the
field to vote was unconstitutional, and
In support of that declaration the pres
ent Democratic candidate for governor,
Hon. George A. Jenks. by his voice and
nfluence, showed that he was In com
plete accord with the leaders of his
party, and he ought not, therefore, re
ceive political support from those who
believe In the Justice of that measure
to the men then serving their country
on land and sea.
'That, as survivors of Ihe war of the
rebellion, we call upon our comrades
and fellow citizens to cast their votes
at the coming election for the Republi
can ticket. In order that this great
patriotic state shall have a full Re
publican delegation in congress, and a
Republican legislature, so that it shall
become a matter of record that Penn
sylvania Is arrayed on the side of right,
Justice, humanity and prosperity, thus
saying to the country at large that
the people may continue to rely on Re
publican principles as the means by
which the nation, under the wise lend
ershlp of President McKlnley and his
advisers, may continue on Its onward
march of progress."
Speeches In the line of the resolu
tions were made by General James W,
Latta, ex-Lieutenant Governor William
T. Davies, General B. Franklin Fisher,
Congressman Thad Mahan and others,
and a campaign committee of 15 was
provided for, to see to It that the work
done with so much effect for McKlnley
in '96, and by the parent organization
the old "Boys in Blue" as far back
as 1866. shall be repeated this fall.
Here in Philadelphia, whose big vote
Is always a matter of general state in
terest, the significant development of
the week Just closed is the decisive evi
dence that the factional differences
which have split up the party for over
three years have been wiped away.
It's as safe as a bet on McKlnley's re
election that there will be only one Re
publican local ticket this fall, with the
whole party behind it.
