A JURIST TESTIFIES
Unimpeachable Evidence From a
Brooklyn Official.
Munyon Relieved Him. Cured Him Of
Rheumatism Ia a Few Hours.

Judge Nue.. whose popularity in
Brooklyn was demonstrated by the
immense majorities by which ne was
elected, and gentleman Of unim-
peachable character, in speaking Of

STATE COLLEGES CLAIMS.

The measure pending in the Legislature
to provide about 5OOfrac scholarships IN the
Pennsylvania State college for the young
men and young women of the common
wealth has called attention to the relation
OF the college to the state, and the assist
anCe already given to II. From 1857 to 1857,
before 1t became a state college, the legis-
lature assisted the founders with appro-
priations aggregating 1890 The number
of students averaged l2i yearly. During
the next twenty years, after the state had
accepted its quota OF land given by the
United States for establishing state col
leges and had pledged Itself to the United
States government TO provide and main
tain buildings for the school, II gave for
this purpose $4,000. about $4,000 yearly.
The average number of students each year
was 1l2. Since 1887, when the college be-
gan to develop and to establish Industrial
education firmly, the state has given $780,
900, II yearly average OF 100000 for build
ings, repairs, equipment and insurance.
As a result, the college has five COM
modious administration buildings and Ia
boratories, well equipped for the Industrial
and technical instruction II Is imparting
to its students. During the last period
mentioned above, the attendance has aver
aged 2i9 per year, the present number be-
ing 372, representing fifty counties of tho
state. Each state in the Union has one
of these 'land grant" colleges, the best
known being the Cornell CNew York; and
the Massachusetts, Institute of Techn ifogy
In the east and the Universities of Ohio,
Illinois. Wisconsin and California in The
west Their current expenses are paid
Jointly by the United States and the sew
eral states. Pennsylvania has given less
to her state college than he's Illinois. Iowa,
California, Kansas, Massachusetts, Min
nesota, Missouri, Texas, Wisconsin or
Ohio, yet in wealth and industrial inter.
ests she surpasses each Sf these states.

A Plant from Old Luzerne.

There Is perhaps more truth than
poetry in the assertion of the esteemed
Wilkes-Barre Times that Lu2crne
county Republicans are themselves to
blame for their lack of recognition at
Harrisburg. They have presented no
claims for recognition, worthy Of the
name; and, as our contemporary itself
somewhat bitterly says. "the third
county of this great commonwealth oc-
cupies," by its own choice "a position
in the state government about on par
with such counties as Pike, Sullivan
and Forest"
'In remarkable and striking con-
trast," the Times continues, stand the
Republicans of Lackawanna county.
They go for anything and everything
in sight. Frequently they present two
or more candidates for the same office,
enter into vigorous fight, and In
nearly every instance they win" For
Luzerne's apparent ignoring "the APP
pointing power is not to blame; the
state leaders of the Republican party
are not at fault; the responsibility lies
at the door Of the Republicans Of Lu-
zerne county. The trhth of the matter
is that the Luzerne Republicans are
sadly lacking in that keen, shrewd
party leadership that makes itself sue

Let 1t Be Fairly Tested.

Because the Farr compulsory educa-
ton does not go far enough" GER
tain patriotic orders in Allegheny an
nounce that they will prepare a more
drastic substitute. In addition to COM
pelling school authorities to furnish ac-
commodations for all children between
the ages Of ard 13 years, which is un-
necessary since many children will re-
ceive their education in private or
parochial schools. the proposed substi-
tute bill contemplates the appointment
OF deputy superintendent of public in
struction, whose chief duty presumably
will be to draw a salary of $1,SOO a year
and look wise.
No doubt the intentions of these AL
legheny amenders are excellent; but we
take this occasion to remind them that
Rome was not built in day; and that
Pennsylvania will be very fortunate If
line of compulsory education all the
children within her borders shall re-
ceive the education which is their right
full heritage. The Farr bill, to be sure,
is only first step" but 1t is to be
remembered that first steps, as we'll as
last steps, are necessary to the COM
pleted journey. The main point now is
TO get an experimental law on the stat
ute books. Time and study and practi-
cal test will provide the guides to its
necessary modification.
The waglng, by it's friends, of a war
upon the Farr bill in the senate would
at this time probably result in the tenn
porary defeat of the whole subject,
which would be a general misfortune.
The proper course for these Allegheny
enthusiasts to pursue is to let the bill
become law, let the law receive a fair
practical test, and then let it be amend
ed, If necessary, to cover demonstrated
defects. That would be sensible
policy as we'll as q popular and just
one.

Are We Experiencing a New Instai.
ment of La Grippe?

The number of persons just now suf-
fering from an ailment similar in its
symptoms to the original disease
known as la grippe Is sufficient to war
rant the belief that we are in the midst
of mild infection, in some respects
unlike any hitherto encountered. The
disease manifests its coming by means
of violent headache, followed by ris-
ing bodily temperature, stingng SEN
sation in the epidermis of the back and
stomach, with that in turn followed by
copious perspiration and severe chills
From that stage onward, the symp-
toms are that of common cold, inten-
sifled by q tenacious fever fitful in it's
habits; often by dizziness. and some
times by slight and fieeting touches Of
mental "flightiness." Altogether, the
disease is one OF those most annoying
kinds which cause the patient to trem-
BILE exasperatingly on the balance be-
tween positive illness and positive
wellness.
AS to its prevalence, there can be no
question. Every third Scrantonian
has 1t. From almost every store or
office some employees are missed, and
the easy explanation is that they shave
got the grip"-meaning, of course, that
the grip has them, But "the grip" this
time Is a decidedly different grip from
devastated these United States six
years ago this spring. Its progress is
attended with comparatively little
fatality, such deaths as are haetened
ny It owing chiefly to pneumonia COM

"Opening Headquarters"

Word comes from Harrisburg that
the Junior Order of American Me
chanics are about to open permanent
| legislative headquarters in, that city.
We interpret this to mean that this CX-
cellent order intends to establish an
ambassador at the state capital, clothed
with authority to threaten recalcitrant
members of the Legislature with the dis
pleasure of the orders voters resident
in his district. This may not be the
avowed purpose and intention of the
action; but it is the inevitable outcome
Of it, \ permanent representative
deriving his influence not openly from
the people, but secretly, from an oath
protected society, will need to be a
much better man than most men are If
he can refrain from cracking the whip
which is in his hand over the heads of
legislators who displease him.
So far as we are familiar with the
principles and purposes Of the order in
question, they are most excellent. we
do not wish to criticize it on any ground
other than the improperly of opening
headquarters" at a place where the
people, by their ballots, have already
opened headquarters. Many societies
and corporations and associations long
agJ set the precedent of opening"
such headquarters" apart from the
official and representative headquarters
ordained By the voters; hence the Jun
ior Order of American Mechanics is
now merely following bad example.
And it is the badness Of that example
alone to which we wish to call atten-
ton, in the hope that it may some day
cause the public to take measures for
its correction.
The right Of petition; the right of in
dividual protest, by voice or letter; and
the right to send delegations before
committees of the legislature in behalf
or or IN opposition To pendnS
measures are not to be light
ly surrendered. But it is a
long jump from these constitutional
and wholesome rights to the mainten-
ance at state capitals, by secret organi-
cations. Of expert manipulators of legis-
lation invested with the formidable and
secret power of emphasizing their ad-
vice by the swaying of many votes.
This latter custom, by whomsoever oh
served, is not defensible. \ law abol-
ishing it should be passed, and then
rlgidly enforced. Legislators should
have no masters but the people, and no
bosses save their own constituencies.

plications. La grippe, in is real self,
was graveyard-lller. The disease
now epidemic Is not necessarily dan
gerous. 1t is merely exasperating,
annoying, oath-provo!ling. 1t catches
one, like the bandit, All unexpected
times and after holding him up for II
day or two, lets him so, feeling angry,
vexed and generally out OF sorts.
Next to sending at once for phyG-
clan, the best treatment for this an
noylng ailment is to wear warm wool
ems, avoid draughts, keep the pores of
the body free and open, and cling stead
fastly to ones own comfortable fire
side until the trouble is over Quinine
and foot-baths will be likely to do more
good than harm; and even brandy can
be recommended for strictly medicinal
purposes, to patients who have no
scruples against its use. The disease
will soon yield to this course of treat
ment, and leave one comparatively lit
tie worse for the wear. But If risks
are run with draughts, sudden changes
in temperature, Incorporate eating or
venturesome exposure of the throat,
the consequences are quite likely to be
both serious and unpleasant.
An opinion by some observant phy3i-
clan as to the perodcity and probable
duration of this epidemic would be in
tercsting.

We do not like to say these things
on our own responsibility; but q plain
word or two along this line spoken by
Luzernc authority, may do good.
The material exists in the mother
county for magnificent political or
ganization amor.; the Republicans
such an organization as could not only
win home battles but carry weight and
prestige into state contests. The devel-
opment of this possibility has not, how
ever been seriously attempted. The
reason why is obvious. No one has ap-
peared with the necessary qualifica-
tions. There have been kid-gloved
leaderships and ward wire-puller
leadershipg, and neither has been unin-
terruptedly successful. What Is needed
now is, as our contemporary suggests,
an aggressive leadership of brains.
That want ought not to be long felt.

MATE TI[TON WAS NUM-.
Return of the ErStWhiIe FL
anCe of Pretty Miss
HolbroOk.
The Sydney's First officer VIII Not
Talk of His Eastern
Wife.

G. o. Tilton, first mate OF the steamer
City of Sydney, and the ex-fance of pretty
Miss Holbrook, niece of G. B. Holbrook,
secretary of the Society for the Prevention
of Cruelty to Animals, returned on the
Sydney from Panama yesterday. Tilton
has been passing as single man since he
entered the employ of the Mail Company,
and is said to have on more than one occa-
sion asked to be presented to young
women to relieve the monotony of single
bliss. He proposed to Miss Holbrook after
monopolizing her attention for cons ider-
able time and was accepted. All the time
he had a wife and child in Boston, who
had been neglected and deserted by him.
Tilton's suit progressed very favorably
and all was smooth sailing until shortly
trip of the Sydney. The young lady's
uncle was not altogether satisfied as to the
character Of his niece's betrothed and he
went to work quietly making inquiries
He learned of Tilton's marital experience
in the East and confronted the fellow with
proofs OF his duplicity. Tilton, it is said,
went down to the Mail dock in rage and
said that some one had been lying about
his affairs. General surprise was expressed
at his utterances, for IT was commonly
known on the dock that he was married
man.
Tilton set up as defense that he had
been divorced, and it was not until after
the departure of the Sydney that the story
found It's way into the newspapers.
AS soon as the steamer docked yesterday
afternoon, the mate was questioned re-
garding the accusation against him, but he
declined to be interviewed on the subject.
'They took advantage of me as soon as
my back was turned" said he, "but l am
not going to do anything Of the kind. /
have nothing to say about the matter"
asked.
mo, I don't wish to say anything. ]
will make my answer at the proper time.
If you want to know anything more, see
my lawyer, J. Samuel, on Sansome street"
The mate said, in response to question,
that he had communicated with his attor-
new since he left San francisco.
