Mr.. Rynder Should Be Proud.

We clip the following from the
BellefOnte Republican this week: Our
late candidate for Congress has reason
to be proud. For several years he has
advocated the adoption of uniform
system of school books to be published
by the state and furnished to the
school children Of the Commonwealth.
Last year he secured its adoption by
the Union Labor state convention, and
since then il has been making such a
headway that it has already been en-
dorsed by many county and local
Teachers Institutes, and several bills
have already been introduced in the
Pennsylvania legislature to give it
effect.
In the discussion of il one of its
most important features has been left
out, viz: the advantage to our young
teIchers of being familiar for several
years with their text books. This ad.
vantage can not be measured in mon.
ey, but would be of as much advan.
tage to the certainty of teaching and
the progress of the pupils as the mo.
mentary advantage will be to the
parents, who now have to pay the
school book rings one dollar for an
eight cent book. Already the School
Book Trusts and rings are at work to
defeat this benefcient measure, but il
will come all the same, and every
parent who sends his children to the
public schools will be under obliga.
tions to Theodore P. RyDder for an
annual reduction of his educational
expenditures of from two to five dol.
lars.
The latest county Institute to en-.
dorse this reform was our neighbor ol
Bedford, and Houtzdale the latest
local institute SO far as we have no,
ticed.

The Prohibition Election.


The State Senate yesterday passed
the bill making provision for the
special election on the 18th of June
at which the proposed Prohibition
amendment to the Constitution will be
submitted to the popular vote. 1t
now goes to the Governor who will, of
course, promptly sign it. This will
complete every preliminary step, and
nothing will remain to be done but to
record the popular verdict.
The vote of the Senate on the pass.
age of the bill, like all the preceding
issues on the subject, ran along party
lines. The Republicans were united
for it and the Democrats united against
it. The action of the Republican
party fom the very beginning through
all the successive stages of the ques.
tion has been distinguished by abso.
Lutte good faith. The Republican
State Convention Of 1886 declared in
favor of the submission OF a Prohibi.
tion amendment. In fulfllment of
that pledge the Republican Legisla.
ture of 1887 framed the measure and
gave it its first enactment as required
by the Constitution. The Republican
Conventions of the succeeding years
resffirmed the declaration, and now
through another Republican Legisla-
ture the measure has received its sec
ond passage in compliance with the
constitutional method OF amendment.
The Republican party has kept its
faith at every step. 1t has shown its
sincerity and integrity in giving the
people the opportunity of determining
for themselves whether they will make
the principle and mandate of prohibi.
tion part of the fundamental law.
This is all that any party can do as
a party. The amendment now being
before the people, the vote upon it is
a question of individual judgment and
conscience. Every citizen must de.
eide for himself whether he will stand
for or against prohibition. He must
decide for himself whether it is wise
public policy, whether it is the most
practical temperance measure, aud
whether it is the best way of accom-.
plishing the great end of public mo-
rality which every good citizen has in
view. On this question it is not to be
expected that the division will follow
party lines. Doubtless the majority
of Republicans through the State will
be for prohibition and the majority of
Democrats against it. But there will
be Republicans against it as there will
be Democrats for it. 1t is in no sense
political issue, but a momentous
question of practical government and
public morals. During the coming
three months it will be earnestly dis.
cussed through the State, and that
discussion should be candid, rational
and temperate on both sides with the
honest purpose of enlightening the
people on all the elements involved in
the decision and of promoting an in.
telligent and deliberate Judgment

An exchange says: Felix Mclaughlin,
a driver for the Continental Brewing Com
pany, of Philadelphia, was convicted the
other daY at Nouistown of selling liquor
without license. The evidence showed
that Mclaughlin had taken orders in
Montgomery county for liquor and deliver
ed the same receiving pay therefor for his
employers. The Court charged that the
defendant was guilty because the contract
was begun in Montgomery county when
the beer was ordered and was completed
in the county when the beer was delivered
and pay accepted for it. The jury accord
inglY rendered a verdict Of guilty.
