1t is a curious fact that in New \ ork

scratched Every Republican elector
had 81, 1856 votes; every Democrat
3,0l5; every Greenbacker $40, and
every Prohibition elector 26 votes.

The laws Of Tennessee do not allow

Thomas Hughes says the only annoy

Tennessee colony thus far was the
presence of two Tennesseeans who
squatted on piece Of ground, the title
to which was so involved that it could
not be purchased, and opened up a
ouor saloon. They could not be
driven away until two Indiana ladies
started school next door, when, in ac-

FOREIGN MINISTER'S
BOARD.

A friend writes us for information on
the two following points: First. How
and by whom are Ministers to foreign
countries appointed? Second. By
whom is the Board of Pardons in this
State appointed or elected ?"
In answer to the first inquiry: Min
listers to foreign countries are appoint
ed by the President of the United
States, subject to the approval of the
Senate of the United States. The
language of the constitution of the U.
S., Art. 2, Sec 2, is that be, the Presi-
dent, shall nominate" them to t e
Senate. and the Senate must consent
to the nomination. This is the law.
But the practice we believe is, for the
Secretary of State to make suggestions
to the President as to proper persons
to be sent abroad. The Secretary of
State of the U. S. is at the head Gf our
foreign Office and affairs, and of course
he would be consulted, and generally
in fact controls all those appointments.
As to the second inquiry, as to how
or who creates the Pardon Board Of
Pennsylvania, we answer, that the
Lieut.. Governor, Secretary of the
Commonwealth, Secretary of Internal
Affairs and the Attorney General of
the State, compose under our new
State Constitution, board of pardons.
bf these four State toif6sctersfw;o of them,

Lieut.. Governor and Secretary of In
ternal Affairs, are elected by the peo-
pie, and by virtue of their said offices
are members of the board. The other
two, Secretary of the Commonwealth
and Attorney General, are appointed
bv the Governor to their offices and by
virtue of the same become members OF
the board. SO that it will be seen, two
of the board are in fact elected by the
people, and the other two appointed by
the Governor. The Governor has the
power to pardon, but only on the rec
ommendation, in writing, of these four
officers or majority of them. See
Constitution Of Pennsylvania, Art. Z,
See. 9. Before the present Constitu-
tion the Governor had sole power to
pardon, hut now this board must rec
ommend. Whether this board has
been any improvement is now a much
mooted question But still more i'm
portant question is, should there be any
pardoning power lodged in the Cover
nor? We incline to think it should bt
in the Courts.

A Thanksgiv. .ng Day Cremation.

WASHINGTON, PA, November 20
A slight ripple upon the quiet OF
Thanksgiving day was caused here by
the cremation of Lucia Burton Morse
Noyes, the young wife Of G. H. Noyes,
ESQ, of Warren, Pa. DIR. George I.
HAYES, at the request of the Rev. Mr.
Rankin, pastor of the deceased, officla-
ted at the crematory at 1:30 P. NJ, In
the regular burial services OF the Pres
bvterian Church. Her husband and
Henry c.. Morse, brother Of the de-
ceased, will remain here until Saturday
morning to receive the ashes. The
young husband and wife were pledged
to each other in this disposition of the
body of each after death. Cremation
having lost its novelty in this commu-
nifty, is generally regarded as cbaste
and reasonable disposition of human
bodies. This was the eighth crema-
ton in the LeMoyne furnace, five men
and three women. The trustees have
lately received number ofapplications
showing that the interest in this mode
of disposing of the dead is increasing
One was from New. Y ork and the Others

THE Democrats, through the mis-
take of an election officer, have secured
an elector in the State of Indiana. This
will offset the one lost by them in Cal
ifornia, and bring the count back to
what it has been given at, to wit:
Garfield 213 electors, Hancock 156;
Garfeld's majority, 81, unless some
more mistakes are found. BY the way,
what lively time there would have
been four years ago if a stray elector
or two had turned up here and there
as at present. The late election has
done much to demonstrate that the
present mode of electing our Presidents
ought to be changed. The popular
vote. as in all other officers, will be
safer in the future than the present
system.
JAMES Z. BROWN, ESQ, of Kittan-
ming, died at his residence in that place
on Saturday last, aged 81 years. Mr..
Brown was we'll known to many of
our citizens, and his name is associa
ted with many of the earlier events of
Butler county. We remember some
wears ago of him remarking that he had
made the survey and located the pres
ent Butler and Kittanning turnpike
road, in the year 1921, near sixty
wears ago. His early occupation was
that of a surveyor bat there have been
few enterprises along the Allegheny
Valley. or in fact in Western Pennsyl-
yania. that he has not been promi-
nent figure in for many years past. He
was remarkable for his energy and in
dustry; very temperate in habits and
ea.eful in all things, the result of all
which is that he leaves behind him an
estate worth more than million of
dollars. He was largely interested IN
