Fiolett, The Honest Granger.

The nominee of the Democrats for
State Treasurer was member Of the
Pennsylvania House Of Representatives
in 1916. He was, during the session, a
member OF the Committee on Banks.
Strong efforts were made, that year, to
repeal the charter Of the Lehigh County
Bank. The Bauk Committee were
equally divided about the reporting of
this bill. 1t was held over nearly
month, as was understood, at the in
stance of Mr.. Piolett. Daniel McCook.
younger brother Of DR.. McCook late
of Pittsburgh, was at Harrisburg lobby
ing for the bill. Moses Y. Beach, of
New York, was the chief owner of the
bank. 1t was understood that Piolett
was in treaty with McCook about getting
this bill out OF the Bank Committee.
The whole facts as proved before Judge
Pearson, before whom McCook was
afterwards tried, we're about as follows:
Negotiations had been going ON for
some time between McCook and Piolett
about getting the bill out Of the CON-
mittee. Finally arrangements were made
that the money was to be paid the next
morning. AN the parties were Demo-
Gratis and boarding at the Buchler
House. McCook had COL Piper, Of
Bedford, concealed, wrapped up in a
buffalo robe under his bed to hear what
passed at the.payment of money, Piolett
was paid s400 in the notes of the Plain
field Bank, of New Jersey, and the bill
was to be reported at the next meeting
of the committee. Piolett, however,
blowed on McCook, and laid the money
on his desk in tho hall OF the House,
and stated that he had been offered it is
bribe.
McCook was bound over and tried
before Judge Pearson about month af-
terwsrd and was convicted of the Of
fense. Thaddeus Stevens defended
| McCook. On the trial Piollett was ex.
amined as the chief witness: Among
other things, he stated having gone into
McCook's room and received the $400;
he returned to his own room, sat down
and couted the money, and he said he
wept to think that any body would be, or
could be bribed for S40O. Thaddcus
Stevens said. Gentlemen OF the jury,
have been doubling Mr.. Piollett's
statement heretofore. Here is one part
l suppose to be exactly true. He tells
you about counting the money in Lis
own room, shedding tears. He admit.
ted that he was not aware of its being
Plainfield Bank notes until this point OF
time. Now, he knew that Plainfed
Bank was IN bad repute, in fact he sup.
posed it to be utterly worthless. These
tears fell not because of the attempt to
bribe him-but because he thougt they y
had passed utterly worthless paper
money upon him. His virtue could
not stand an at;emp to bribe him with
counterfeit money. Now, gentlemen Of
the jury, had he not gotten into pas.
sion over it; had he gone to a broker s
and learned that he could have had
them changed to gold and silver for
from five to seven per cent, he would
have pocketed the insult, and yon would
have been saved the trial of McCook.
The Bank Committee all believed
that Piolett had been inviting this at.
tempt to brlbe him.

An excellent old ballad has been
made into good modern law in Oregon.
The United States District Court in that
State has given $4,000 damages to a
young German girl of nineteen whose
beauty was permanently spoiled by an
accident On board of the steamship Ori-
famine. of the Oregon Company, last
March. The Judge gave it as his opin-
ion that personal comeliness is con-
sideration of importance in the case OF
every daughter Of Eve" since it may
affect her power of obtaining "a secure
and independent position in the COM
munity by marriage" The opinion
must be admitted to be sound, and not
the less sound that it simply tran states
into law the famous old verse:
MY face is my fortune, Sir, she said"
The Philadelphia Times publishes an
interesting letter showing that the water
of artesan wells is not fit to drink
There is an artesian we'll at Reading
2 600 feet deep, costing s22, 900, which
contains forty-seven grams of epson salt
to the gallon. An artesian we'll at Fifth
and Cherry streets, Philadelphia, con-
tains Il6 grains of foreign matter to the
gallon, and can only be used to con-
dense steam for the boiler. AN artes-
ian we'll in South street furnishes water
not fit for steam At Seventh street
and Passyunk road there are two artes-
ian wells, each 100 feet deep, but the
water of both is SO impure that it can
only be used for condepsing. The
water at the Continental Hotel is not
pure. At Louisville there is we'll g.
649 feet deep, one in St. Louis 2,0S6
feet deep, one in South Bend, and one
in Terre Haute, but the water of them
all is impregnated with minerals, and
fit only for medicinal uses. At Allan
tic City number of wells have been
bored in the hope of getting pure water,
but not one yields water ft for house
hold use.
Washington, D. c., September 13.-
One of the special agents of the Pen.
sion Ofice has just returned from the
West, and his reports made to the Com.
missioners discloses a remarkable series
of Wholesale deceptions practiced on the
Government. He found parties in the
regular receipt of pensions, who moi
only were not disabled from earning
their living, but who could show nc
trace of wounds or of impaired health
Numerous cases we're also discovered ol
parties personating dead men, and
women falsely representing themselves
as the widows Of deceased soldiers and
drawing pensions as such. The Com
missioner now states that he is convin
ced that the Government is annually
paying from three to five million dollar,
! to fraudulent claimants.

Not Correct.

A St. Louis paper having stated that
the authorities of Buffalo "have decided
that no woman having husband shall
be accepted as a public school teacher"
the Eapress talks as follows:
We desire to inform these outside
critics that the idiotic action referred to
was not that of the Buffalo school
authorities, nor was it the action Of any
body having any authority whatever in
the premises. 1t was simply the i'm
pertinent action Of thirteen men in the
common council who are shrewdly sus-
pected here Of having daughters, nieccs
or friends-unmarried ladies-whom
they wished to pension off on the school
board in lieu Of some Of the efficient
and experienced lady teachers who were
so unfortunate as to have added to their
school experience with children, some
domestic exper ience. The gentlemen
who went out Of their way to put up
this little scheme, have succeeded only
in making themselves the laughing
stock of the city. and the outside world,
too The school authorities will con-
tinue as heretofore to employ teachers
according to their qualifications. All
the old teachers have within a few days
been re-engaged, including those guilty
ef the crime Of marriage, in utter dis
regard of the absurd vote of the council.
