truthfully add that no other Democrat
can. The present Legislature and the

Catching His Spirit.

George Francis Dobson, spirit
ualist of Muskegon, Mich, has per-
fected scheme, he thinks, by which
he hopes at death to bs able TO
prove positively to those still in the
material state that his spirit exists.
He went to Pittsburg short tine
ago and obtained a large glass cyl
inder, 50 constructe I that it can be
sealed air tight quickly. In this cyl
inder he has suspended with fine
copper wires two pieces of metal SO
light that they may be brought in
contact with each other by the
slightest motion of air within the
cylinder Wires pass through the
cylinder, one being connected with q
battery and the other with a tele
graphic instrument. He has made
for his friends, just be
fore the spirit leaves his body, to
seal him in the cylinder, so that his
spirit may be kept from departing
and at the same time be enabled by
a series of systematic distributions
of the air within the cylinder to com
municate with his friends through
the telegraphic instrument He il
dying with consumption, and the
public pro osbly will not have long
to wait for the test of his instru
ment If it should prove successful
his friends are pledged after three
days to unseal the cylinder and al
low the spirit to depart and ther
seal up and bury the remains.

Still a Greater Crime

The plot of poisoning the non
union men at H o m d is
unfolding itself in the Homestead
region. Robert Betty and j. M
Davidson testified before a Justice in
Pittsburg that they were employed
by the strikers to go to non-union
head quarters and there be employed
as cooks They were each to get
$50 and expenses. They say they
got the poison powder from a master
workman of the Knights of Labor.
The poison powder was in a small
Jar, three doses enough for 30 gall.
ons of coffee each time. At an 9th
time they got nine powders and
gave them to a man named Gallaher
who SAID they worked all right.
One of the men said the powders

Visited by a Bear.

Wednesday night of last week
about eleven o'clock a full grown
lear came down on the porch at the
home of Mrs. Charles Miller, below
the Junction, and thumped at the
door so hard that the inmates thought
it would break itin. Although 50 very
polite as TO rap, couple of dogs
owned by Mrs. Miller objected to
the intrusion and challenged the
bear to combat, in which the dogs
seem to have got the worst of it. Us
one of them was so badly used up it
could hardly get around the next
day. Not liking its reception the
animal finally returned to his home
in the mountain-Lewistown Ga
zette.

state Grange Meeting.

The State grange met in the hall
of the House of Representatives in
Harrisburg, in three days session
last week
Some one who had spite to work
off, and who had forgotten that the
Republican campaign for United
States Senate was settled by a popu-
lar vote last summer in favor of the
reelection of Senator Quay, offered
a resolution denouncing him as a
candidate. The grange had the good
sense to vote the resolution down.
Worthy Master Rhone reported
the organization of twenty-six new
oranges during the year, the resur-
rection of five dormant oranges and
tie institution of three Pomona
oranges, increasing the aggregate
membership 5000. The State Grange
was reported to be in good finacial
condition, and the cooperative busi-
ness system of the order of untold
benefit to its members. Mr.. Rhone
claimed that the persistent efforts of
the Grange had resulted in an in
crease of the appropriations to pub
lie schools from ST ,000, 900 to g., ,0OO,-
O0O annually, the enactment of an
oleomargarine law and the establish
ment of State quarantine protection
and State experiment stations in
horticulture and agriculture. In Sc
curing these reforms in no case did
1T require of the members of the
Grange an alienation from former
political parties or the burdening of
itself with the dogmas of other So
cieties or classes.
The following officers were elected
for the ensuing year: Worthy Mas
ter, Leonard Rhone; Secretary Col.
r. III. Thomas; Treasurer, VIM. S.
Yocum Overseer, VIM MHenry.
In the election for Secretary, j. L.
Altman, of this county came within
l5 votes of being elected Secretary.

A Fact About Roads.

The farmers appreciate good roads
better than any other class of
people, but they are not demented
enough to spend all the their earn
ings in keeping up roads for the
mere pleasure of speeding too and
fro. They have other things to pay
for in addition to roads. With the
thinly scattered population it is an
impossibility for the farmers to con-
struct expensive roads. The men in
cities talk like fools about country
roads they don't seem to have the
common sense to see that one or two
tax payers to every half mile-with
slender income of two to four hun
dred a year cannot make hard
smooth roads like city people who
have five hundred to a thousand
business men with large incomes
crowded within the same distance of
every half mile.
1t is an old saying that one must
creep before one walks, and the peo
pie who live in the country at long
distances apart realize that they can
not have solid smooth roads between
their places in bad weather until
the time has been ushered in, when
the spaces between their homes have
been built up by men whose business
will warrant tax levy sufficient to
get the money and labor to construct
roads that will be good in all kinds
of weather The most of the road
howlers are men who are suckin g
the high salary teat of corporation
or government office and don't know
how the money comes, or are shop
men and store box loafers. Soma OF
these chaps want to be classical and
talk as they say of the grand roads
of Rome, that are good roads
today. They have never pryed deep
enough to know that Rome's politi-
cal policy was one of war aud plum
der, and that the roads she built was
not built by a tax levied on Roman
citizens, but upon tax wrung from
the people that Rome conquered
The Consul or Tribune of Rome
that would have dared to even pro
pose a heavy tax burden upon Roman
citizens direct would have been torn
from his position and driven into
exile

The Interstate commerce commits
sion created by act of Congress does
not come up to the line of expection
and a number of presidents of rail
roads have been to Washington to
ask that the law be repealed or
amended, and thus it is clear that
the law does not suit either the peo-
pie in general, or railroad people in
particular. Without going into par
ticulars as to the objections that
railroad men urge against it, the
people of the eastern states have
realized that it does not remedy the
freight rate discrimination against
them by the long haul low rates.
The farmers in the middle states
are charged as much TO haul their
grain and other produce to Philadel-
phia, New York, Baltimore and 9TH
er eastern markets, as are the farm
ers on the cheap lands of the west.
The complaint is not on the freight
from the middle and Atlantic coast
states, but it is that the long haul
rates from the west are not higher
If the freight rates from the west
were higher the companies would do
the farmers of the east justice and
would do what is right, for the farm
ers of the west and make more mon,
eyfor the railroads. As they manage
things now the discrimination is all
in favor of the western shipper on
the long haul low rate.
