HANNA TOO MUCH IN EVIDENCE.

Mr.. Hanna talks too much. Does he
ever stop to think? Does he ever seek
honest advice or is he satisfied with the
prudent silence or obsequious approba-
ton of the politicians with whom he
has surrounded himself? If Mr.. Hanna
really knew what operates upon the
minds of voters who will decide the
election he would know that by putting
himself so much in evidence he is MAX
ing votes for Bryan. There are certain
ly enough voters in this country who do
not approve of the methods or the OBJ
jects of Mark Hanna, either in business
or in politics, to render his too great
conspicuity in the campaign perilous
to his candidate.-New York World.

enhanced by the fact that he was Mr..
Huntington's political agent, and had
become notorious by procuring the con-
coction of bogus petitions for the South
ern Pacific Santa Monica steal, which
was denounced by every labor organi-
zation in Los Angeles. Mr.. Hanna
knows a true friend of the workingman
when he sees one, and he seldom let's
one get away.-New York Journal.

ITS FOLLY AND FUTILITY.

1t has yet to be explained how tariff
which prevents the importation of for
eign goods can raise money for the gov
ernment by charging them admission.
Either they pay and come in, or they
stay out and do not pay. They cannot be
made to pay admission for staying out.

MR.. BRYAN'S LETTER.

But while Mr.. Bryan touches upon
about all the questions which present
themselves to the American people his
letter possesses the merit of brevity in
dealing with each. He is clear explicit
and right to the point, attributes which
distinguish all his written or oral dec
larations.-Boston Inter Mountain.

WHERE GOLDEN ROD BLooMED.

The man who says that "the silver

that much more are increased the

money power.-Indianapol Sentinel.

ANOTHER CANARD

One of the latest canards concerning
a colossal and entirely fabulous fund
being raised for the Bryan campaign
is to be found in the following piece of
news"
w. A. Clarke, of Butte, Mont, the mill
lionaire owner of the Anaconda silver
mine, was closeted today with the Bryan
managers, and it is said tonight he has
brought joy to Chairman Jones. Ac-
cording to a generally credited story, he
has agreed to raise 100000 as the first
campaign Offering of the silver mine
owners outside of the state of Colorado.
The New York Journal appropriately
points out that the intelligence only
lacks three insignificant amendments:
First-"The Anaconda silver mine" is
a copper mine.
Second-It is not owned by W. A.
Clarke but by the Rothschilds, j. g.
Haggn and Marcus DAILY.
Third-Its owners are all gold men.
"In a republic like ours" said Mr..
Hanna the other day to a correspondent
OF more or less sympathetic gold organ,
the New York World. nothing could
be more dreadful than class legisla-
ton" Mr.. Hanna is himself the person
ification of such class legislation, and
his record proves him to be an able ex-
ponent of it's iniquitous theories. For
something still more dreadful than even
class legislation is the wholesale corrup-
ton that Mr.. Hanna is instigating as
evidenced by the same correspondent,
to be found elsewhere in this issue

Major Mckinley struck another key
note in a speech Of Tuesday afternoon to
a delegation Of several hundred colored
citizens of Cleveland. He said.
WE WANT IN THE UNITED STATES
NEITHER CHEAP MONEY NOR CHEAP La
BoR. WE WILL HAVE NEITHER ONE
NOR THE THEIR.
Continuing little further he declared
This money question presents itself to
me in this homely fashion. II free coin
age Of silver means a scent dollar, hen
it is not an honest dollar. II free coinage
means a Ioo-cent dollar equal to gold
dollar as some of its advocates assert, we
will not, then, have cheap dollars, but
dollars inst like those we now have, and
which will be as hard to get, i'll which
case free coinage will not help the debt
or nor make it easier for him to pay his
debts
The speech created the greatest enthu-
siam among the Ma jor's hearers. Cheer
after cheer was given with will when
the Major concluded.

tuberculosis.

A herd Of thirteen of the finest Holstein
cattle owner by VIM Stoner, OF Nestmore,
land county. were slaughtered by order OF
the State Veterinarian few days ago, and
the discoveries made by the post mortem
were sufficient TO completely Icken the
owner Of the cattle. who was present. The
lungs were almost completely gone and
what remained of them were diseased to
such an extent that the sight was horrible
to behold Not only the lungs, but all
parts of the vital parts of the animals were
affected. The udders particularly were
badly diseased, and 1t is from this source
that tuberculosis is conveyed to humans.
The star COW of the herd was The worst al
fected. In the udder was an ulcer twice
the size of a goose egg. MT. Stoner stated
that this COW had been giving four to hve
gallons of the finest looking milk every
day. and he had serious doubts that 1t was
affected. He Sas more than satisfied alter
what he saw.
No. ouIy in the older animals, but in the
Younger ones SIS well, was the disease very
apparent. The one calf that was killed
was in an awful condition, while the
heifers seemed to be worse than sny OF the
others, the disease having no doubt been
born in them.
Although Mr.. Stoner has not been using
the milk from the COWS since tne luePeCbVI
was made several weeks ago, yet there Is
no doubt but that the animals were IN a
very serious condition before the inspee-
ton occurred, and it is possible that ser
ious results may follow. The cattle not
condemned at the last inspection are still
on the farm of Mr.. Stoner, secluded from
all other cattle. They will be inspected
again about the middle of September, when
there is little doubt they too will be found
affected, by reason OF their long assoela-
ton with the cattle that were diseased.
Mr. Stoner was perfectly satisfied with
the test. and will make every effort to
have all the farmers in his locality have
Inspections made of their stock. He has
several brothers who are dsiIymen in
Westmo oreland county. and he took home
with him anumber of applications for tests,
confident that, after he told of the condi-
tion of his own cattle, they would be glad
to avail themselves Of the opportunity to
have theirs tested.
William Waugh the New Brighton man
who suspected his cattle were affected, has
made application to the State Veterinarian
for tests, and DR.. Lscock expects to be or
dered to that place in few days. He
stated that some four other New Brighton
dairymen had asked for inspection, but
at this time he is unable to disclose their
names.

A Legal Question.

A New brighton correspondent to the
Pittsburg Times says: Erastu5 Hunter,
a farmer living near Zelienople, was in
town on Friday seeking legal advice as
to whether or not slide in a hillside
could deprive him of his property.
He las Ii 125 acre farm, a portion OF 1t
living on hillside Alongside and fur
ther down the hill is the farm of man
named Bolinger. A road separates the
two farms and on Hunters side, about 10
feet from the line, Hunter had handsome
residence. The heavy rains of the sum
mer have evidently softened the whole hill
side and daring the last two weeks, resi-
dence, farm aud road have been sliding
down the hill At the point whore the
residence is located the road has changed
position by 40 feet, and the house OF Hun
ter according to the Old'survey is on Boil
ingers land.
Hunter and Bolinger have been quarrel
ing for some time aud matters were
brought tc q climax on Thursday morning g
when Bolinger called at the house and
ordered Hunter out The latter employ
ed a surveyor, but the house had slid over
| the line beyond question, and as the deeds
| specify the road as boundry to the farms
and the roed has been changed by super
| human agency, Hunter thinks he shOulC
still retain the property up to that point
Bolinger claims that by that reasoning he
would lose an acre and half of land.
The legal nut is little too hard fo
even the lawyers to crack, and com
promise is suggested by Hunters buying
| The acre and a half of land, which Bol
| niger would lose were the line shifted t
correspond with the road. Hunter, how
ever cannot see why he should buy hi
own house and thinks there is no equit.
! in such a settlement.
