NO DUST!

What have you concluded
to do about Painting the
House this fall? You have
been thinking about it con-
siderably this summer, and
while at times you think you
could hardly afford it, you
lave probably come to the
conclusion, in a very sensible
way, that it was very poor
economy to put off painting
any longer. This. of course,
is true, as the house goes to
pieces in short order without
being coated with a strictly

1t being a time-honored custom to
observe Thanksgiving Day as holiday,
III which the American people for more
than a century have been pleased to
meet as neighbors and friends at some
place for worship in eachcommunity on
that day to express to Almighty God
their gratitude for his constant care
over them and fayors to them, it seems
to us pastors Of the churches of Medi-
cine Lodge that we, as community,
ought to cease from toll, as far as pos
sibie, and meet for divine service on
November oath inst.
And we, as the pastors of the church
es, most earnestly ask that the bust.

BUCHANAN'S BAD BLUNDERS.

GOVERNOR BUCHANAN is little man-hatfng
politician. With him principle is secondary;
his personal whims, grievances and vanity
come f1rst.-Chdteunoo1a Times.
GOVERNOR BUoHANAN's independent candf-
dature for reelection in Tennessee will
probably be based on the anti-hanging idea.
Colonel King ought to indorse Buchanan.-
BostoY, Herald.
If the Democratic Governor OF Tennessee
runs as fast as an independent candidate as
he does to keep out of sight of his insurgent
miners he will make q record.-NeU York
Commercial -iduertiser.
SINCE the King incident Buchanan's chance
as bolting candidate for the Governorship
of Tennessee is about equal to that OF hay
NOW in a Cyclone. Buchanan is politically
crazy.-Kansas City Times
CERTAINLY the spectacle Of the Democratic
Governor confessing himself beaten and
abandoning one of his generals to surrender
to 5000 miners who have surrounded him is
calculated to make Tennessee Republican II
anything will.-Net0 York Press.
GOVERNOR BUcHANAN's course in dealing
with the assassin King raises grave doubts
whether he has stuff in him to put down the
rebellion in East Tennessee. An Executive
who was as weak as he was on that occasion
is likely to be even more weak in this extra
ordinary crlS1S.-PhLddetpRtd btHetfn
AN efficient Governor might have relieved
Tennessee of the convict stockade long be-
fore this, but Governor Buchanan has let
things take their course while he was max
ing record as the only Governor OF the
State who ever allowed q mob to storm
State building at the State capital.-St. Louis
Republic.
GOVERNOR BUCHANAN, OF Tennessee, has
announced his Independent candidacy for
reelection, hoping for the Endorsements OF
the Popultsts, whose State Convention will
take place next week. With four State
tickets in the field. Tennessee is liable to
cause Boss Harrity as much uneasfness as
Alabama or Georgia. -MhsneGpoits tribune.

these forms of United States silver circu-
lation shall be excluded from Canada
They have an apparent justification for
that proposition in the measures against
Canadian silver taken on this side of the
border. So far as international rights are
concerned the United States can offer no
objection to such measure. But if the
Canadian people like the silver certificates
it may be hazardous experiment to ex-
clude them simply for the purpose of
swelling bank circulation.
So far as the United States is concerned,
it makes little difference whether Canada
takes our silver or not The amount that
can be absorbed there will be but drop
in the bucket of the total volume.

CHICAGO Aug. 19-Hon. Whitelaw Reid
returned to this city from Springfield, ILL.,,
this morning, accompanied by Congressman
Burrows, of Michigan, and a number Of
politicians. In alighting from the train he
accidentally jammed one of the fingers of
his right hand in the door of the car, bruis-
ing the member SO severely as to require the
attention of a surgeon. To O. reporter Mr..
Reid expressed great pleasure at the en-
thusiasm manifested by the assemblages at
Springfield yesterday as being good augury
OF success.
Touching his future movements, Mr.. Reid
said: II entertain the old-fashioned idea
that candidates for the Vice Presidency
ought not to do too much campaigning. L
many speeches outside of my own State.

should pay more attention to our own cam

Many Republicans, and Democrats, too,
paid their respects to Mr.. Reid to-day. Fl.
II. Kohlsaat, OF the Inter- Ocean, arranged for
a luncheon in Mr.. Reid:s honor at the Union
League Club to meet the editors of all the
daily papers, and later he visited the
Worlds Fair grounds. He left for Xenfa,

the non-partisan character OF the attend
ance. The list OF those present represented
every daily newspaper in Chicago of what
ever shade of politics.

WORLDS FAIR EXTRAvAGANCE.

The charge of extravaganza in the
management of the Worlds Fair has been
frequently made; and it is asserted with a
good deal of show of truth that this was
the cause of the appropriation being cut
down one-half as much as any other. the
Chicago Tribune spoke out in meeting the
other day and demonstrated that the
salaries are entirely out of proportion to
the work done. Salaries of 5000 and
$4,000 per year are paid to men who do
little or nothing; and IN one case head of
department drawing the salary of Con.
gresham is also paid officer of the Gov
ernment A summary of the way expendi-
lures are run is as follows:
During the month of June there were 1,5ls
employees in the executive, Director Gen
erals and construction departments, in
volving an expenditure of sl24. COL a month
for their salaries. There are, for instance.
twenty-five men helping the treasurer at q
cost of 81, 1sS and fifteen helping the auditor
at a cost of s., ,239 The lawyer of the Fair
has five other lawyers to help him. There
are seven men sitting around to help on tho
ceremonies" Seven doctors are practicing
or waiting q chance to practice. The janitor
of the Worlds Fair rooms has eleven as
sistants. Ten men are wondering what they
shall do for ethnology, and ten more are
eating up over $1,000 a month in running
foreign affairs. No less than fourteen men
are looking after Latin-America, when a
third Of them would be plenty: and pub
licity and promotion" takes twenty-five, of
whom twenty don't earn their salt.
A peculiar feature of this affair is that
other papers have raised great outcry
over this expose as an attack on the Fair.
1t seems to be inculcated that to support
the enterprise itself it is necessary to
swallow abuses which are really injurious.
Because the course is taken which may
lead to cutting off the evils which threaten
to swamp public enterprise, therefore
the Fair itself is attacked. The logic of
jobbery is usually of this sort.
The fact that the salary list of the Fair
is set at about 81, SOC, 900 year, when one
half or one-third the sum would be honest
pay for the work done, may explain the
necessity of going to Congress a year be-
fore the Fair will open, and year after
Chicago's alleged $4,000, 900 was raised.
If anything can ruin the big show it will
be extravaganza of this sort

MIR. SIPEs NOMINATION.

The nomination of W. A. Sipe, Esq, by
the Democracy of the Twenty-fourth
Congressional district to succeed the late
Congressman Craig probably puts the
best man in the field that the Democracy
had at their disposal. Mr.. Sipe is law
yer of high standing and an able and
earnest leader of Western Pennsylvania
Democracy. 1t is hardly probable that in
this national canvass that district of i'm
portant industries will send Democrat to
Congress; but it is not less important that
even minority parties shall put good
men in the field. If Mr. Sipe is elected
he will be creditable successor to the de-
ceased Congressman; and if he is de-
feated it will be after a well-contested
fight.

rITrsBuRG. SATURDAY. AUGUST 20. 1897.
TWELVE PAGES
A STATE OF CIVIL WAR,

The civil war in East Tennessee is more
than ordinarily productive of irreconcil-
able reports The same days dispatches
had a graphic account of complete de-
feat inflicted on the miners by General
Anderson's forces the day after the report
of General ADderson's capture by his
antagonists; at the same time an uncondi-
tional surrender of the miners to General
Carnes; and finally a repetition of the
story of General Anderson's capture,
which The DISPATCH had given from the
previous nights telegrams.
This sort of thing is a symptom of the
state of civil war going on there to more
pronounced degree than anywhere else at
this time. In Buffalo and Pittsburg the
situation may be described as general
condition of armed truce with occasional
lapses into overt acts of war. In East
Tennessee the war up to yesterday was
open and unmistakable, although the
latest dispatches give CLEANS of hope for
the restoration of peace The act of the
miners, as it is reported, in capturing
General Anderson under flag Of truce
seems like another indication that when
these outbreaks come they are not even
conducted by the rules of civilized war
fare. Perhaps, however, there may be
some exaggeration on this point, through
the patent unreiability of the reports.
The Tennessee affair has the character
istic qualities of labor troubles accen-
tuated in al! the important points. In the
first system of convict labur was main-
tanned which was medieval and almost
semi-barbarous. An agitation within
bounds to abolish that system would have
commanded the sympathy and approval
of the intelligent public. But the miners
resorted instead to rebellion. They bade
defiance to the law, opened war on the
State, and challenged the forces Of organ
lied government Such course is simply
suicidal. If labor thinks that it can bet
ter its condition by destroying the law it
simply impcaches its own intelligence and
places itself in armed opposition to civili-
ZatiOn.
When any interest, be it labor or capital,
levies civil war and tries to destroy gov
ernment of the people by legal methods
its simply creates the necessity for severe
measures of repression They are using
such measures in East Tennes see very
vigorously. That is the only thing to be
done until the supremacy of the law is
fully restored.

CANADA's SILVER QUESTION.

The silver question in Canada, as it is
stated in news dispatch elsewhere, con-
sists in the wide use of United States sill
yer and silver certificates. Canadian
bankers are unanimous in regarding this
as dangerous. The danger" though, to
most of them consists in cutting down
bank profits by taking the place of so
much banknote circulation. One banker
perceives the danger that these forms of
money may sink to the silver basis; but as
he was noted opponent of United States
currency in Canada when silver was not
an issue it may be doubted if this is the
real inspiring cause of his present opposi-
ton.
The Canadian bankers propose that
Pittsburg dispatch. [volume] (Pittsburg [Pa.]) 1880-1923, 1892-08-20

sents the people in the first instance, ends
by removing the decision entirely away
from those whose votes will be asked for
the nominee.
An even more vital result of the sys-
tenn which treats the representation Of
the county as the personal property Of
the candidate who lives there is that
character does not seem to count.
Nothing is more evidently necessary than
that the bench shall be upright, and even
that its integrity shall be free from sus-
picion. Yet we have here presented a
case in which a candidate can bring the
nomination to deadlock while blot
rests upon his record in the shape Of
bribery scandal which got into the courts,
and in which verdict was blocked by the
obstinate refusal of witnesses to answer.
The new form which the conferee plan
will take on Monday may be called step
from the conferee system to the referee
system. 1t is to be hoped that the new
development will demonstrate its superb
ority to the old one by showing its appre-
citation of keeping the reputation of the
bench above reproach.

CHAUrAUoUA, Aug 19.-[Spectal. This was
Grange day and from the number of grangers
here one might imagine the whole State had
turned its farming population into Chau-
tauqua. Every boat brought throng OF

in by the score. On Grange and Grand

come in force Rain spoiled the fun. A
thunder shower started the storm and q

At II O'Clock platform meeting was held,
addressed by Master Trimble He proposes
that bill be introduced in the National
Congress to provide special schools for agri-
culture instead of allowing money to be ap-
propriated and go to schools which use the
money for other purposes and neglect the
agricultural work. The meeting In the
afternoon was presided over by ex-Presi-
dent Hayes. This evening Mr.. Hayes pre-
sided over campfire of the Chantauqua
County Veterans Association. Speeches
were made by quite number of prominent
veterans. DR.. Ely gave the fourth and last
lecture on Socialism" this afternoon. In it
he tried to draw the golden mean. He con-
sidered the waste Of competition and the
means of avoiding it. He also drew some
conclusions on the land question and other
ideas brought up by Socialists and by some
considered so absurd.
