Mex ico is very rich in precious and dye woods, but the industry of cutting these has always been active, and the cutters have, as in the American forests. been utterly reckless in their destruction of young trees.

THE DEMOCRATIC CONGRESS
SIONAL CONVENTION.

Before this reaches the eye of the
reader the outcome of the conven.
ton held Sept. 25, at Stroudsburg to
nominate a Democratic candidate
for Congress for the Eighth District
will be generally known. While it
was apparent to even a casual OBJ
server that there was trouble ahead
for Mr.. Hart, and that his chances
for the unanimous denomination
were very remote, yet the spanking
he received at the hands of his con-
stituents conclusively proves that
they know a bad boy at sight, and
are not slow to administer the con-
dign even before he browns the cat.
Charges were made two years ago
that Mr. Hart had received a large
sum of money, some placing it at
$4,000, from Mr.. Mutchler with
which to carry the conferees from
Pike and deliver them as a precious
package to that gentleman and
thereby make him the nominee of
the party. 1t was assumed that Mr..
Mutchler had with cautious fore
sight knowing, perhaps, something
of the high sense of honor which in
fiates the breast of the average DEM
ocratic politician, fortified himself
by making a similar arrangement
with Carbon county, and thus plac-
ing himself as he supposed in an i'm
pregnable position, for it was not
probable that his plans would be
overthrown in both Pike and Car
bon. However, the redoubtable
Major Klotz, an alert and wary toe,
did succeed in Carbon in coralling
the delegates, and Mr. Mutchler
turned with confidence to Pike for
the delivery Of his bought and paid
for goods. But Pike saw new light,
she held the key, and she refused to
unlock the situation unless she could

votes of our people. If that argu-
ment was good then it is equally
forcible now The Stroudsburg
Convention deliberately, premedita-
tely, and with malice aforethought,
so far as two counties at least were
concerned, came to the meeting it is
said with the papers nominating
Barber drawn, thus prepared to show
no quarter to their weaker brethern
but to ruthlessly strike down Pike 8
claims before she could even assert
her rights. No matter about Mr.
Hart's deviations in the past he was,
and is, the chosen representative of
this County as the one upon whom
the mantle of honor should fall and
blow at him is a blow directly and
squarely in the face of the Democracy
of this County. Pike asserted two
years ago, when the cry came give
us another name, that she had the
right and she alone to determine
whom of her sons or what adopted
child should wear the toga. If Pike
under the guide of her foremost and
shrewdest politicians was right then
she is right now in her insistance
that the nomination should come to
her, and the attempt to wrest it from
her by brute force and sheer num-
bers should be vigorously resented
by her stalwart Democracy. Mr..
Hart must remain in the field, and
his whilom friends if they are
consistent must stand by him in this
situation in which they have aided
to place him. They must not skullk
in the face of the enemy.

WHY NOT HARTY

We have urged the denomination
of Mr. Hart, and we still think ac
eording to time honored party usage
he was fully entitled to it at the
hands of the convention. He should
remain in the field and fight the bat
tie. Two years ago when his nomi-
nation was demurred at because he
was comparative stranger in the
County with no especial claims on
her for so great a distinction, the
answer came pat, it is not the man
but the County we honor. That
was the party shibboleth, the open
sesame by which he gained the
Pike County press. (Milford, Pa.) 1895-1925, 1896-10-01

AS long as gold, either from its in
trinsio superiority as a metal, from it's
rarity or from the prejudices Of man
kind. retains so considerable a pre-emi-
nence in value over silver as it has hith-
erto had, natural consequence Of this
seems to be that its condition will be
more stationary. The revolutions, there
fore, which may take place in the COM
parative value Of gold and silver will be
changes in the state Of the latter rather
than in that of the former. Alexander
Hamilton.
Pike County press. (Milford, Pa.) 1895-1925, 1896-10-01

What have Mr.. Hart and the Pike
and Monroe Democrats to lose by
keeping in the fight? What to gain
by abandoning it? The die is cast,
the edict has gone forth, the Rubi-
con is crossed. They must fight for
their political lives, or there will be
nothing but a lot of miserable corp
ses strewing the field, with the white
flag of poltroonery floating over it,
where once trod the hosts, and
waved the banner of a proud and
vaunting Democracy 1t is death
with honor or retreat with disgrace.
We think there is courage enough in
the leader and sufficient loyalty in
the ranks that they will go down if
they must facing the foe at least.
