Legislature, had the sentiment found
root with any party, that political
ends may be achieved by such fes-
terjng methods as gave rise to the
Danville massacre. The faction
leaders, for their own purposes, had
set on foot the shotgun scheme, to
compel irresolute and timid voters
to indorse at the polls principles
which had already been repudiated.
In conclusion M. Malone said:

suffer by the inquiry. On the con-

from it free from all stain upon the
reputation of the majority Of her
people, while upon a violent faction
will be found the responsibility and
blood of her murdered citizens.
Here, where the breath Of freedom
has ever inspired devotion to the
God-given rights of men; here, in
Government founded on the ever
living basis Of equal rights, is the
place to set on foot an investigation
of such fragrant acts of moral tur-
pitude and crime in contravention Of
the Constitution and laws of the
Union, and to reach out for a rem

Wonders Never Cease.

A long time ago the wise man said there iB
nothing new under the sun, and yet the daily
experience of hundreds seem to prove this
false. Some contend that the days Of miracles
are past, but yet it appears as if they are not
yet gone by when such men as L N. TidbaI, OF
Washington, Pa. give the following remark
able testimony:
Il have been a severe sufferer from chronic
rheumatism and kidney affection for over
twenty years, and after having tried nearly
everything without getting relief, commenced
using Peruna a few months ago. The benefit
have received is wonderful. feel like a new

Surely such a cure is remarkable and none
should hesitate any longer about tusing Peruna,

How Watch Cases are Made.

This process sofmanufacture was invented
by James Boss, who started in business in
1854, and the methods and tools used in
making these watch cases are covered by
patents. This is Che only watoh case made
under this process. For many years tho in-
PRODUCTION of these goods was slow, owing
topopular prejudice against "plated" goods,
but gradually the public learned that the
james Boss Gold Watch Case was not a
cheap gold-pasbod or eLectro-plated article,
but was made of genuine gold plates Of
standard quality and thickness. Conscientious
adherence to the determination to make
the best watch case ever put on the market,
and the adoption of every improvement
suggested, has made the James Boss Gold
Watch Case the STANDARD. -,,pr Y .,vaK

Upon the subject of surveys the need of
good photographic charts may be argued
from tine fact that in the North Pacific alone
there are more than 5000 reported dangers
which do not exist or are incorrectly located
The U. s. consul at Hong Kong ascribes the
loss of the American ship Rainier, ON the
Marshall Islands, to defective charts.
1t is claimed that so very little time is nee
essary to take soundings in great depths that
an examination of any locality where dan
ger is supposed to exist could be very quick
ly made and the'contour of the beds of the
ocean absolutely determined. 1t is suggested
by the chief photographer Commander j.
R. Bartlett U. 5. Navy that as the Hawaiian
government is carrying on a photographic
survey of its islands the United States should
continue the soundngs to the other princ-
pal groups of the Pacific. 1t is also very
properly suggested that a vessel should be
sent TO the Spanish Main this winter to col
lect data for the revision of the charts OF
that region which are mostly based on old
Spanish surveys dating back to 1894!

''Ile said that he was surprised that the
temperance legions over the land were not
more numerous. Public. opinion was
strong agent. Public opinion in the United
States had not been in favor of drunkenness,
but it certainly had besn in favor of strong

led in the liquor traffic to walk through the
land with their heads elevated like kings.
Moral suasion was the great aim, but it was
not the only agent. They must work on
public opinion.
'We are prepared, he said, at the same
time 10 appeal to just and fair laws in the
land. Law, we are told, never made virtue,
but law asserts virtue. Law as it has been
administered in America has been brought
down to the service Of alcohol. Laws crea-
ted for the benefit of the liquor taflic have
been permitted to operate in full force, while
those abridging it and working contrary to
its interests are declared n dead letter. What
evel just and fair laws were passed should
be permitted to go so far as the protection

We're laws on the statute books prohibiting
the sale Of liquor to minors and drunkards.
He said the rum power was going too far in
the violation OF law and overriding the pro-
per will, and some day the people would
rise up in their might and tell it TO stop, and
it would stop.
"The lawlessness of the traffic was the

THE ROSS KICKERi

Could there be shown more marked in.
stance of pure ''cussedness'' in journalism
than the following from the New-York
Tribune of last week:
'It is not doubted that Democratic voters
earnestly desire public prosperity. They
have interests in common with the whole
country. Comparatively few of them ex-
pect or desire any Office. But there are
three fatal difficulties: Many of them desire
something else more than they desire public
prosperity; many of them believe that public
prosperity is to be promoted by measures
and policies which are really ruinous; and
they trust incompetent or unworthy lead
ers."
Mr.. Whitelaw Reid forgets that the peo-
pie of the United States by electoral and
popular vote have said and declared other
wise (the New-York Tribune notwithstaud-
ing) on the Fourth of November last, that
they, the American people of this United
States believe that the leaders of the Demo-
worthy to take the reins of government in
this country than any, or the best that can
be found among the choice leaders of the
Republican party. Also that the Demo-
cratic leaders are more competent, according
to the opinion of the only judges in the mat
ter, to take charge of national affairs The
people of the United States have also decid-
ed and placed that opinion upon historical
record, forever, that the measures and
policies, embodied in the Dem ocratic plat
form of July last inure to public prosperity
and not its ruin. And, last of ALL the citi.
zens of this country have expressed theiI
opinion to the world that they believe thai
the first and foremost desire of the Demo.
cratic polity is for the public good.
The people of the United States have said
all this, and all the world but Whiteaw
Reid has heard it.
Upon these questions it is fitting that the
declared opinion of the people should be
taken into consideration. The New-York
Tribune, however, like ''Sairey Camp and
Mrs. Harris" has consulted only itself.
The people have declared that they will
have tariff for revenue only, Samuel 7.
Randall Notwithstanding.
The recent utterances of Secretary McCul-
loch, and the widespread popular endorse
ment of his report has fallen like bomb
into the Republican camp. The market for
our products must be extended, and the
people of this country are at length falling
in line with the long-past and reiterated
pronuncamento Of the Hon. T. f. Bayard
on that question.
The grey hairs and babbling senility of
antique ultra-protection are relegated to a
metropolis with the other dead and buried
bogies of the party of industrial obstruction.
