Paralyzed by Suspense,

There are 50, 900 bushels Of wheat in the
grain elevators Of this country awaiting
buyers The price is the lowest ever known
The New York banks have 5000, 1000, GOO
hard cash lying idle in their vaults. They
offer it to borrowers at the lowest rates
ever quoted The conditions are present
for great industrial activity. Why then
does the present stagnation exist
The one sufficient explanation is tariff
tinkering. Who is going to lay in stock
of any kind when tariff changes may bring
down values The business of the coun :
try will be done on hand-to mouth basis
until tariff revision is finished. Existing
industries will be carried on only to fill
current orders These orders will be as
small as possible. The situation sJnst the
reverse of what it would be were the pros
pective tariff changes protective. Then
the possibilities of increased duties would
stimulate present production and the laying
in of stock. But with the prospect of lower
duties and lower prices, every need that
can be postponed will be postponed. En-
terprise stands still and waits to know
what the business conditions are going to
be. Whatever the Democratic party in
tends to do about the tariff had best be
done quickly. There is nothing so harm
full as the present suspense.

Education and the Farmer.

At the farmers institute the other day
the question of how much education was
necessary for successful farmer was ois
cnssed. And il was discussed with that
rational and clean spirit hat characterized
all their discussions. Every calling oil HE
receives nutrition and adornment IRON
proper education. Mr.. Davis, Of Gramplan'
CIearfield county, thought that as many
boys were ruined by sending them to high
class colleges, where vigor and activity ID
kicking the foot ball wins more glory tnah
excellence in studies or the capturing oil
first prize for oratory at commencement
Bows also learn to be affected, and some
times get "stuck up" and when they come
home they have lost that simple and un-
assuming character which is the chlel
charm of sterling manhood.
1t has been prettily said that colleges
are places where pebbles are polished ana
diamonds are dimmed." A college cannot
give boy an education He must get that
himself. But it facilitates his work, and
gives system and order to that which IS
likely to be chaotic. 1t also tends to give
him confidence in himself In weak minds
this confidence often degenerates into ego
tism.
The literal meaning of education Is 10
lead out or develop the natural faculties OF
the brain. A propar education would ORA"
out and develop the good characteristics
and stunt and discourage the bad ones.
And when thus considered, no man can
have too much education.
Some industrious statistican has figured
out that ninety-two per cent. OF the lead
ing statesmen, professional and business
men of this country, were once farmer
boys. If that be true, and We have no
reason to doubt it, there must be some
thing about farm life that stiles the bad,
and develops the good clements Of mans
nature. Perhaps it is this: The farmer
boy learns habits Of industry. His limbs
ara made strong with healthfnl labor. he
ia not afraid OF work, Now, genius has been
defined by some as 'love Of labor, and by
Others as nothing more than good health" :"
A farmer boy usually has both. In his
youth he is not corrupted by the contamin-
atine influences Of the guided dens of vice
which lure the city boy from the paths OF
virtue. The scent Of clover blossoms is
more invigorating both to his moral and
physical health than the fumes of beer and
cigarettes. .-Punxsutsw wney Spirit.

The Indiana County Election Cases.

The Indiana, Pa, Messenger makes the
following note of the political cases
which were on the trial list of that county
for week before last.
John W. Books, who was defeated for
the Republican nomination Tor Sheriff last
Nav. and who. few weeks later, became
an independent" candidate for that ONCE,
duriug the progress OF his campaign work
ed himself and some Of his friends into an
overwhelming heat. Books alleged that
his defeat was owing to bribery and the
circulation of libelous circulars. The CIR.
culars containing the alleged libel lncluded
a statement in regard to the negotiations
Of certain mortgages taken up by gentle
man named Campbell, all OF which the
average reader is familiar with For cir
eulatipg this alleged libel Books had ar
rested and put under bonds four gentle
men named respectively Lewis, smith,
Campbell and Simpson Books also caus-
ed the arrest of Bruce Wissinger, OF ash
ington twp, who he claimed had been
cuilty Of bribery about the time OF the
Republican primary election. Ali these
cases were set down for trial on THURSDAY
of last week. Judge White, Tor reasons OF
his Own, did not sit as trial Ju6ee, out
procured the services of Judge Greer, OF
| Rutler. When the cases were called ior
trial. Lewis asked for continuance be,
cause of the enforced absence OF material
witness. The case was continued. Then
Books asked that his cases against Simp-
| son. Smith and Campbell be continued
| giving as a reason that he had no attorney;
tbe counsel he had retained and who had
| prepared his cases having died. we may
| here remark, parenthetically, that Books
LAWYER was John r. Wilson, Esq, VINO
! died on the 18th of October, Just Two
months prior to the time when the cases
were set for trial, thus giving him ample
time if be had been so disposed, 10 nave
amnIoved other counsel; and in any event,
| since Books was prosecutor, he had the
District Attorney. whose duty 1t Is to try
cases for the Commonwealth. Jndge
Greer permitted the cases to go over until
| Friday when again the defendants an
nounced their readiness for trial and urged
nDcr the Court their earnest desire to have
the cases disposed of Finding the Court
still reluctant to hear the cases, the law yer'
for the defense then assailed the indlct-
ments and moved that they be quashed on
the grounds that they were de1ectiVe. Inc
Court granted the motion and the lndlct-
msnts were quashed. Then came the case
of Simpson VS. Books. This is the so-called
"gambiing case" Simpson, the prosecutor,
was ready for trial, but again Books set W
the plea that he had no counsel, and wa'
not ready for trial, and the Judge continu
ed the case.
Books and his handful OF adherents, have
beed loud, persistent and clamorous aboni
how they were going to Ego for" and "dc
up" lot of people, and the arrests detail,
ed above followed as a consequence. Anc
now we have the plea of the "bahy act
when the opportunity comes to carry o1l
the wild threats so freely made. Verify
the turtle dove roar5 like lion.
