Pinckert0ns and Calling Guns.

If the New York and Cleveland
coal and gas Co., OF which Marcus A.
Hanna is the largest stock holder
and which company operates large
number OF coal mines in Pennsyl-
.vania and elsewhere, should carry
out it's threat to start its now idle
mines by the use of an army of
Pinckertons and gatling guns, Mr..
Hanna might as we'll retire from
political life. The cause of this
threat is, that the miners are striking
for an increase of Is cents per ton,
that Is from 81 to 90 cents for mining
coal. At meeting Of the coal oper-
ators, nearly all agreed to make an
advance of ten cents and put the old
miners to work, but the represent
ative of Mr.. Hanna would not agree.
Nero fiddled while Rome burned and
Mark Hanna is enjoying catching
trip while the miners who produce
his wealth starve. .,.,.

THE robbery of the Republican
party stealing, the credit Of rising
wheat is preposterous. Unfortunate.
ly for the poor devils in this coun-
try who have to buy flour at starv-
ing wages, and fortunate for the
farmer who raises wheat, the crop
in all Europe failed, and as a ma
tural result the great demand has
caused raise of prices. The Re-
publican nor no other party has
any thing to do with 1t. ANY sane
man knows this, and if sane and
talks anything else he is trying to
deceive.

Our Executive Committee

We indeed, feel that we have for
this campaign one of the strongest,
and best executive committees
that has ever served this county.
The chairman, Mr.. Petit, has been
one Of the strong young fighters In
Hooking democracy for a number
of years, and comes to us with the
largest personal majority Of any
county candidate last fall, giving
evidence ofthe confidence his party
places in him and his popularity
with the people. The secretary,
Mr., w. f, Bowen, Is one of the
young men of push in our party.
He has been mayor of Logan against
great political odds, and made
hot'campaigns in Hooking in the
past several years. He under
stands politics and will serve as
secretary of the executive CON-
mittee in most efficient way. The
treasurer, w. A. Henderson, of the
Fourth Ward Logan, is one of the
fighters for years in his precinct.
He made distinction in his party
last fall by his untiring advocacy
of the silver cause, and this spring
by hustling for the democratic local
candidates. As careful financier,
he has proven himself efficient as
secretary for a number of years of
the Logan Natural Gas Company.
He will care for the campaign ex-
chcquer as he would that oft'his
company, to the betterment and ad-
vancement of his party. The other
members of the committee, George
Marks of Washington, Henry
Schaal of Perry, Charles Wharton
of Good Hope, A. j. Burgess of
Gore, Nell Robb Of Ward and FL.
mer Chute of Green, are among the
representative Democrats Of their
precincts. They are wheel horses,
untiring and persistent for their
party's good. They are among the
men who are workers. They are
not stay-at-homes or home guards.
They take the field and are in the
thickest of the fight, and thus they
are recognized as the proper per-
sons for their party's executives
We are proud of our committee,
and feel enhanced buoyancy to the
glorious victory that awaits us this
fall.

How They Howl.

= About hundred disappointed Re-
publican Office seekers are getting
together and bowling for the repeal
of the Civil Service Law. 1t is not
all probable if the law was repealed
that many if any of them howlers
would receive appointments. Most
of them are old Office holders who
have been sucking at the public teat
for years pnd having been forced to
let go, are clamoring for another
chance. But the Hannacrats will
not appoint that class. They have
to many political debts to pay, that
were contracted during the cam
paign. They have paid their money
debts to the Militant usurers, the
trusts, monopolies, bankers and
manufacturers, by the passage of the
Hanna Tariff Bill, and now thsy
will find way to crowd out the Civil
Service Law and pay their political
debts. So the Howlers will and can
howl on.

'Yote for Mckinley and Higher
Wages"

That is what the Hanna orators
and the Hanna newspapers told the
people during the campaign of 1896.
Thousands of people believed the
story and voted for Mckinley. This
was particularly true in New Jersey,
the largest of the silk manufacturing
states. AS duty ranging from 30 per
cent. on the highest priced to seven
hundred percent on the cheap Japan
ese silks which poor girls could af-
ford to buy, was put on silks and
now some thousands of silk weavers
in New Jersey are on strike. be-
cause they have been notified of q
reduction of the price of weaving of
two cents per yard. Great Is the
Mckinley tariff and the manufactur-
es get the profit.

Hon. Clay Drinkle, of Lancaster,
one of the best known Republi-
cans in that neck of the woods, is
OIL the war path, 1t is said that
Mr.. Drinkle was thrown down by
Senator Hanna, and that after
working hard for that gentleman
for years, he got the bleak and
wintry eye when he asked for rec
ognition Of his services. If this
tale Is true, and Mr.. Drinkle IL real.
ly out for blood this year, he will
make trouble for the Republicans.
He is one of the most influential
Republicans in Fairfield county,
and is in position where he could
turn up all manner OF trouble II he
wished to. ...

Our Foreign Trade.

The annual report for 1896 shows a
very heavy increase in our export
trade. Great Britain is our best GUS
toner, Germany next, The Dominion
third and France fourth. The per
cent of our exports to each being 40,
12. 6.3 and 90 making 69.7 Of the en-
tire exports to these four countries.
We buy from Great Britain 22 per
cent of all our imports, from Ger
many l4.5, from France 8.8, from the
Dominion 5.3 and from Brazil 0 per
cent.

. Distinguished Cousins.

1t Is rather n curious coincidence
that two cousins, one the son and the
other nephnew of Stephen n. NAL
lery, formerly Senator from Florida
and afterwards confederate secretary
of the navy, are senators from the
states of Florida and California.
They are Messrs Stephen Russell
Mallory and Stephen Mallory White
and both are Democrats.

WE ARE proud Of our Central
Committee. They met Saturday

this fall, by the selection of an ex-
cellent executive committee. Their
own organization with ID. M. Soil.
day as chairman and A. l.. O'Neill
as secretary is merited recogni-
tion. Mr.. Soliday has for years
been stalwart Of Carbon Hill.
He has fought when the fight was
dlscouraging and held on with an
admirable stick-to-itiveness until
victory perched upon his efforts.
He was elected treasurer OF Ward
Township last spring against big
odds and is fighter for his party.
Secretary O'Neill has served in
this capacity a number of years
aud Is one of the most efficient.
He will buckle on his good harness
again and besin the lhickest of the
fight.

instruction may be scientific or purely
practical, but in either case great good
must result, for when we realize that the
ground on which we tread is hailoHed by
associations of the past we shall value il
accordingly and take pride in beautifying
it, and many an historical relic which is
now thoughtlessly cast aside will be pre-
served for future generations. The man
whose attention has been drawn to the
beauties OF the rocks will not dsfigure
them with carved initials or unsightly
advertisements; the boy who has watched
the In bits of the birds will not wantouly
kill them, and the girl who has been
taught to study the growth Of vegetation
will not thong htlessly pull up HE roots Of
the wild plaut whose flower she wishes to
gather.
To appreciate anything we must first
learn its value. The man who sees in a
beautiful tree only It's worth in lumber,
and IN Niagara only q valuable water
power going to waste, is an example OF u
person in whom the nherent love Of the
beautiful has not been cultivated.
The love OF beauty is an attribute OF
man and II it is crushed out We cannot
expect tineIyrouuded character The
character of him who has no appreciation
OF the beautiful is rs far from the perfect
whole as that OF him who has no sense
OF the practical. The influence of the
beautiful is ever uplifting, ennobling and
refining, so there can be no grander work
for us than to wage a ceaseless war against
in those with whom we are surrounded
love OF beauty as manifested in nature
and in art, until we can say with the
poet philosopher:
Beauty through my senses stole;
yielded myself to the perfect whole"
