INTERNAL REVENUE COLLECTOR.
Robert Parrish of Marienyille Prom
inent Candidate for the Place.

We have noticed by some of the
Piitsburg papers that ex.State Sena.
tor j. s. Fruit, of Mercer county, is
about the only man mentioned for
the Internal Revenue Colleclorship
of this, the 23d, district. Doubtless
this is because Mercer is a little
nearer Pittsburg than we are, aud
that there are so many public places
being held by Mercer county men
now that it is natural for Pittsburg
newspaper correspondents to infer
that Mercer would.surely get this ap.
pointment. We are Informed by Mr..
Robert Parrish, of Marienville, who
is also a leading candidate for this
position, that after an interview with
the powers at Washington a short
time ago, he is satisfied he has an
even chance 10 the contest, with point
of location very largely in his favor.
He has the unqualified endorsement
and hearty assistance of our excellent
Congressman, Messrs. w. G. Arnold,
and G. W.'Stone of Warren, besides
the official endorsements of Erie,
Crawford, Warren, Mexican, Jeffer.
son, Clearfield aud Forest counties,
and good endorsements from leading
Republicans in Elk and Clarion
counties, as we'll as the earnest sup.
port of the most prominent ones in
seventeen of the twenty.four coun.
ties in the district. So that he feels
he has perfect right to be termed
"in it" for the present at least.
Mr. Parrish is thoroughly compe.
tent in every respect to conduct the
office with credit to himself, the peo
pie and the administration, and moth.
ing would please the many staunch
Republicans of this section better
than to learn of his appointment tc
the responsible position. The Re-
publicans of the Northwest seem tc
think that Mercer county has always
had the lions share in political
"plums," and they seriously object to
the kind of politics that continually
places all good appointments in one
lncalitv.

THE present legislature has been
severely criticised for not passing a
large number of bills. The work OF
the session has not reached that point
where final action can be taken on a
great many bills, but much prelimi.
nary work has been done, and from
this on the work will make better
showing. However, the legislature
really deserves as rule, more credit
for the bills it defeats, than for the
bills it passes. A great many bill;

HIS "EXTRAYAGANCE.
The Silly Charge So Often Made
Against the WOrkingman.

1t is favorite argument with some
that the reason laboring men do not
get on better is because of their ex.
travagance. A writer in the Utica
Globe, considering this, says:
Let us take family consisting of
husband, wife and four dependent
children-surely not very large
community. Let us suppose the
bread winner is engaged at arduous
manual labor, Now, would three
cents meal be reckoned an extrav.
agant sum to enable such person to
sustain bis work ? That would mean
an outlay of food of nine cents day.
His wife must live, for, although wo.
men talk, they also work, and they
must eat. That means nine cents
more. Children, as anyone who
knows must admit, consume as much
food as adults-if they can get it.
And thus for the family at three
cents a meal, we have a daily outlay
of "a cents. Fuel is necessary.
Suppose we allow six cents a day
for it, or S21 80 year. This is GER.
tainly a very low estimate.
Men must live in houses, and unless
they own them must pay rent for
them. Suppose we allow 80 cents a
day, or 1912 a month for rent.
Then people can't go naked. The
climate as we'll as the law would pro.
hibit this. For family OF six-such
as we are considering-15 cents q
day, OF S54 70 year, for necessary
apparel for the body aud necessary
goods for the home, cannot be con
sidered too much.
Now people are 10 the habit of oc
casionally getting sick. No ono il
exempt from that possibility, and 81
if We reckon 2 cents a day, or S7.3(
a year, to meet the doctors bills NJ
one will grumble, except perhaps tn,
doctors themselves. He is wis
man who has himself and family in
sured, for should death overtake am
member, more especially the breaC
winner, the burden thereby imposed
would be we'll nigh unbearable Sup
pose then we allow 5 cents a day t,
pay the premium on six lives.
Let Us see what all this amounts t.
for this family Of six persons? 1t i
precisely Slip cents a day.
viii anyone claim that the sum
above given are excessive? Surel,
three cents a meal does not impl,
luxury, nor will thirty cents a da,
enable family to live in the fashion

CHANGED HER STORY.
Ida jenkins ExOnerntcs james Clark
of Assault.

Ida Jenkins. the little girl whom James
Clark was charged with attempting to rape
at Alexandria, has gone before Notary
Public X. kemper and made oath that the
charges she made against Clark were utter
ly untrue-that he never made the assault,
accused by her. 1t is believed by many
that the girl in this last instance has been
made to make this affidavit through the
efforts of those WHO are trying to secure
Ciark's release. Judge Norton of the COR
pc ration court and the commorYwealth's at
torney will, it is said, pay no attention to
this affidavit and special venire has been
summoned, and the case will be tried to-
morrow morning. There are several wit
resses who substantiate certain parts of
the little girls former stcry, and it is be-
Heved that VIXEN she is put on the stand
tomorrow she will tell the same story that
she did at the preliminary examina tion be-
fcre Mayor Thompson, and again before
the grand jury. 1t will be remembered that
Judge Norton found 1t necessary to call a
special grand jury to fndict Clark, as 1t
vas learned that the child whom he as
saulted was about to be spirited away be-
fore she could testify. If it is learned that
the girl was made to swear falsely TODAY
before the notary those who led her to it
will be severely punished.
