publican Column.
THE MAJORITY In THE
COUNTY ABOUT 1900.
GOOD ENOUGH FOR AN
OFF YEAR.
The Democrats Elect a Judge in
westmoreland and a District At
torney in Allegheny County,

The HERALD delayed going to press
until We lnesday afternoon in order to
lay before IFS readers the result of the
elections which occurred in the various
States on Tuesday.
As usual, Pennsylvania comes TO the
front with handsome Republican ma
jority. Henry X. Boyer is elected State
Treasurer by a majority ranging from
10000 TO 5000 His home, Philadelphia,
gives him a majority Of 10000, an en-
dorsement that any man could well feel
proud Of.
Despite most gallant fight on part of
the Republicans, Bourbon methods once
more prevail in Virginia, and Malone is
defeated by a large majority.
Massachusetts, Iowa and Nebraska still
retain their positions in the Republican
column. but Ohio broke loose from her
moorings and elected Democratic Gov
ernor by small majority. The Legisla-
ture is Republican, insuring the election
of Republican United states Senator 10
succeed Goal oil Payne"
New York goes Democratic bv about
10000 majority, MARYLAND by 1000, and
New Jersey hy COO.
The entire Democratic county ticket is
elected in Wesimoreland and Cambria
counties. and the Democratic candidate
for District Attorney is elected in Ale
gheny county.
The vote polled in Somerset county
was very light, but the majority. aboui
500, is fairly good one for an off year.

9Jlp Sun
For 1889 and for the Democracy.

The Sun believes that the camp
paign for the election of Demo
cratic Congress in 1890 and a DEM
ocratic President in 1892 should be-
gin on or about the fourth of next
March. The Sun will be on hand
at the beginning and until the end
of the most interesting and impor-
tant political conflict since the
war, doing its honest utmost, as
ever, to secure the triumph of the
Democratic party and the perman-
ent supremacy Of the principles
held by Jefferson, Jackson and
Tilden.
The great fact of the year is the
return to absolute power of the
common enemy of all good Demo-
crats-the p0licical organization
for whose overthrow the Sun
fought at the front for fifteen years
the memorable years of Grant and
the Fraud Hayes, and Garfield and
Arthur.
1t is the same old enemy that
Democrats now confront, and he
will be intrenched in the same
strong position. 1t has been car
ried once by brave and hopeful
fighting. DO you not believe with
the Sun that the thing can be done
again? Wait and see!
The hope of the Democracy is in
the loyal efforts of the united press
cherishing no memories of past
differences in non-essentials, for
getting everything but the lessons
of experience, and that victory Isl
duty.
Probably you know the Sun al
ready as Il newspaper which gets
all the news and prints it in in
comparably interesting shape;
which chronicles facts as they Oc-
cur and tells the truth about men
and events with absolute fearless
ness, making the completest and
most entertaining Journal publish
ed anywhere on earth; and which
sells its opinions only to its sub
scribers and purchasers at two
cents Il copy-on Sundays four
cents. If you do not know the Sun
send for it and learn what II won
derful thing it is to be in the sun
shine.

looked out of the Office window.
"T don't see anything so very
strange about that particular boy"
replied one of the other loungers,
as he sauntered up and saw a boy

street.
"Bnt he's got Jug" persisted
the colonel.
"Well, what of it? Can't boy
carry II jug? ?"
"But he is swinging it around

"Let him swing. You never saw
boy who wouldn't"
"I'll bet he breaks it before he
gets to the corner" exclaimed the
colonel.
Nonsense

reached the corner his hand slip

pieces.

the colonel as he danced around.
"Drat him-here's your money!
growled the other.
An hour later, after having spent
the interval in solemn thought, the
loser mildly inquired:
Colonel, did you think you had

"Certainly, l bought that jug for
the boy, and gave him fifty cents
to carry out the program."-St.

What was the highest price ever
given for book? We may ven
ture to say that we know Of one
fof hich the sum of go, 900 frances
(&lO,OOO) WAS paid by lis gresent
owner, the German Government.
That book is ii missal formerly
given by Pope Leo X. to King
Henry VIII. of England, along
with Il parchment comforting on
that sovereign the right Of assum-
ing the title of "Deiender of the
Faith," borne ever since by English
Kings. Charles III. made Il present
of the missal to the ancestor of the
famous Duke of Hamilton, whose
extensive and valuable library was
sold some years ago by Messrs.
Sotheby Wilkinson q Hodge, of
London. The book which received
the highest offer was HEIR, w
Bible, in the possession of the Vatl-
can. In 1912 the Jews of Venice
proposed to Pope Julius III. to buy
the Bible and to pay for it its
weight in gold. In was so heavy
that it required two men to carry
it. Indeed, it weighed 326 pounds
thus representing the value of half
a million of frances (E2O,000).
Though being much pressed for
money, in order to keep up the
"Holy League" against King Louis
XII. of France, julius III. declined
to part with the volume.
