Died, AGED 1oA Years.

Mrs. Rebecca Sidnor died at the resi-
dence of her son-in-law, Richard Sutton,
in Deckertown, yesterday, at the age of
104 years. She was born on January 3,
1855, in Wiretown, Warren county, N. j.,
and was the mother of thirteen children,
five of whom survive her. Her death was
caused by a fall received last Sunday.
She was a remarkably active woman for
her years. She could not see to thread a
needle, but she did a great deal of sewing
up to a short time before her death. Since
the death of her husband, about forty
years ago, she smoked a pipe, sometimes
as often as six or eight times a day.

Fighting Monopoly.

The Western Union Telegraph Com
pauy some time since purchased and abb
sorbed the d & 0 Telegraph Company,
aud now law suit is the result of that
purchase in the State of Pennsylvania,
because, as is alleged the transaction
comes in conflict with the constitution Of
that State /
Attorney General kirkpatrick has
been quietly gathering ext Hence and has
now secured enough to Justify him ip
opening the fight.
In tue papers filed the Attorney Genl
eral sets forth that on October 9th, 1887,
the Western Union Company, in VIOLA
ton Of the Constitution Of Pennsy lvania,
purchased the entire stock aud thereby 4
controlling interest Of the Baltimore and
Ohio Telegraph Company, and still
holds the same, being $500 shares in
the capital stock of the par value Of
81 S75 600, and paid therefore 50 000.-
600; that the Baltimore and OHIO Com
pany was a competing line in the State
with the Western Union, and that it,
stock. line aud franchises were, by rea-
son of the sale, forfeited to the State =
For the same reason The Attorney Gen.
eral cllims a decree Of forfeiture and es
cheat of the line, property and all fran.
chises of the Western Union Compan,
in the State. The Attorney Genera
also claims forfeiture Of the line, fran
chises and property Of the Baltimore an,
OMo Telegraph Company Of Pennsylya
MA because Of such purchase and consol
idtion
The case will be watched with grea
interest by the public in general and lii
clizess of Pennsylvania in particular.

laws of the land he is tried aud convict

time that monopolies Of the Westcr

The Monroe Doctrine.

The Panama resolution reafIlrms the
fine -houored Monroe Doctrine and is at
once patriotic and Statesmanike There
are two circumstances connected with its
passage by the Senate for which the
country should be grateful. One is the
practical uuauimily with which it was
adopted. Party lines were abandoned
and the names of only four Senators, all
Southern Democrats. were recorded in
opposition to it. hen questions of
foreign policy arise Senators should be
neither Republicans nor Democrats. but
simply Americans. lis was the patrl-
etic attitude of that body when the pres
mt Administrator first consulted it re-
srccting the Canadian complications. =
The Senate then voted almost as a unit
IN condcmniug diplomatic arbitration
and in providing methods Of retaliation.
subsequently the StaSe Department sue
cseded in whipping in the Democratic
Senators as parlisans to the support Of n
policy which, as Americans, they had
rejected. The vote ON the Panama res
olutiou marks return to the better ira
dition of united aud non partisan artion
in matters affecting the honor of the
Nation abroad
The other consideration to which We
have referred is the form of he resolu-
ton, by which the Pre- llent will either
be compelled to veto it outright or to
sign it. and inform foreign nations Of the
action of a united Government Since
the opening of the present Administrator
the Monroe Doctrine has been allowed II
lapse into a state ofinnncuouS dcsuctude
From December, 1888, to the pr, sent
day the Administration has given ne
sign of consciousness Of the operation,
sad schemes of the French company, uol
Of respect and regard for Fundamental
canon OF American diplomacy which re
ceived the sanction of Jefferson, J0hu
Quincy Adams, Madison, Monroe. Clay
Polk. lincoln, Seward and all the later
generation Of Republican statesmen l
is to be hoped that the House Of Repre-
sentatiyes will not alter the form of til,
resolution, but will adopt it without :
division on party lines.
As for the resolution itself, it vii
meet with the approval of every patriotic
American. What was denounced b,
marplots and partisan foes as '.Americar
Jingoism" aud ',tbe diplomacy of pollti
cal adventure" when Mr.. Blaine wa
Secretary of State. now receives th'
rsnctiOn of the Senate With only fouI
dissenting votes.
