heir eyes to the facts respecting the
conditions which must in the very ma
ture Of things produce widespread pros
perity. These facts to which we refer.
are entirely apart from the relations
)f the tariff legislation to general busi-
lcss conditions. except only as the set
llement Of the question removes from
business the uncertainties which have
weighed II down during the past two or
three years.
The first important fact Is that the
storehouses of the manufacturers are
untitled. There has been reduced con-
sumption and reduced production. But
The reduction In production has been
greater even than the reduced con-
sumption. and the surplus in store
houses and jobbers hands has been
irawn down to a point lower than at
any previous date in our history, con-
Ndering our population. The vizable
supply Of manufactured goods now
ready for consumption was advanced
somewhat by the abundant import
tations during May and June, in an
icipation Of the increased duties i'm
posed by the new law. but even these
mportations have not raised the sup
ply to very high point.
The first condition OF prosperity must
De restoration to the people Of their
lormal purchasing power. The farm
.rs, mechanics, transportation men and
aborers. are the people who put in
circulation the great volume of money
which sustainS business and makes
prosperity for all. The business men
and especially the capitalists are but
small factors in prosperity-making.
If then We discover unmistakable
evidences that the classes above referred
O are to be In a condition to pur-
chase and consume the products of ma
:ure and mechanical skill, we shall be-
aold a condition which reveals the
happy harbinger OF better days.
Are there then any such indications
as to furnish a solid foundation upon
which to build reasonable conviction
hat business prosperity Is at hand?
There certainly are! Look first at the
enormous wheat crop now being har-
vested. The ackerage is greater. and
Indications are that the yield will be
larger than In any previous year. But
we had an enormous wheat crop in
1895. and it did not naturally affect
business. The reason of this is found
n the fact that the crop was marketed
At such q ridicuhously low price that it
eft the farmers poorer than when they
began the year. Their labors OF the
year blessed with the abundant har-
vest added practically nothing to their
purchasing power In the markets of the
world They bought neither ad-

vote thereon was a matter of course,
and regular, valid and binding de-
cision by the convention reached.
Why was the question not put and
vote had? Because the men who
controlled the chair had learned that
the necessary two thirds vote to carry
the new rules could not be obtained
from the convention.
So the chair was made to say that
the new rules had been already carried
by the preferential 5otiRg at the dele
gate elections above referred to, and
were established thereby! This base
less statement was promptly chal-
lenged by Mr.. Buckalew, seconded by
several members, in demanding the
yeas and nays upon the McHenry
motion under the plain rule that "any
two members may demand the yeas
and nays upon any question pending"
The demand was refused and the floor
promptly given to a member to move
the completion OF the Associate Judge
nomination.
This concludes the narrative Of
material facts, showing that the pro-
posed new rules have not been
adopted.
Certainly, the convention did not
adopt them, or even vote upon them,
although their approval, by vote of
two-thirds of the members (as ex-
planned 20 the people by the chair
man of the standing committee) was
absolutely necessary to their success.

A. B. HERRING'S NOMINATION.

The comments in last week S
Sentinel upon A. B. Herring's nomi-
nation for Associate Judge are not
reasonable or just. Nor should a
nominee of the party be assailed
without prior opportunity for de,
fence.
The assertion that he received over
200 fraudulent votes is not borne out
by any evidence before the public,
nor charged nor limited at even, be-
fore the convention where it should
have been made, if true. Besides,
the known character of the nominee
precludes the idea that he would be a
party to any fraud upon the election
laws, or the rights of rival candidates.
AS to the complaint that DR..
Redeker was not nominated by the
convention, that is matter of opln-
ion upon which men may honestly
differ according to their predictions.
Upon the face of the election Redeker
had 3Ia instructed convention votes,
Herring go. and q instructed votes
as second choice. AS those second
choice votes were given on Campbell
ballots, when Campbell was dropped
the instructed vote between the two
highest candidates would stand {:
Redeker 31!, Herring 3It or tie
vote, leaving the Croop delegates the
duty and power Of deciding the
nomination. The result was, s. to
50 in favor of Herring. and his nomi-
nation was duly announced.
In short, more of the Campbell and
Croop delegates voted for Herring
than for Redeker. We see no reason
to complain of this or to impute to
the delegates bad motives.
1t was a fair consideration for them,
that as Bloomsburg had already the
President Judge, it would be reason
able to place the associate nomination
elsewhere, and Mr.. Herring may have
had also the advantage of a longer
residence in the county. Whatever
may have prompted them, it is GER
tain that Mr.. Herring was fairly and
regularly nominated under the party
rules as they have been for many
years, and he is entitled to the support
of the Democratic voters.

Dnn's report of business last week

Dm's report of business last week
says:
"Every city reporting this week
notes increase in trade, and nearly all
bright crop prospects. The great
change in business is emphasized by
the presence of multitude of buyers
from all parts of the country, by their
statements of the situation at their
homes, and more forclbly yet by the
heavy purchases they are making.
But the customary signs of prosperity
are not lacking. The strong rise in
stocks, the growth of bank clearings
and railroad earnings, the heavy
speculation in many products, but
most Of all in wheat, have made the
week one of surprising interest even
to those who best remember the up
ward rush in 1879. At the principal
clearing houses throughout the country
payments in July were for the first
time slightly larger than in 1899, and
II.o per cent. larger than last year
in the first week of August ~ per
cent larger than in 1892 and 2S.4
per cent. larger than last year, and in
the second week of August they are
I7.9 per cent. larger tnan in 1892.
and 5S.I per cent. larger than last
year."

Efectriclty on the Canal.
Ultimate attainment of the desired end.
And yet. there are thousands Of intel
,gtent men and scores of newspapers
advocating a ship canal from the Great
Lakes to the Hudson River, and the
deepening OF that river to permit the
passage Of ocean steamers.
The men who advocate the ship ca
1al as an economic measure, are those
who have given the subject but a su-
oerficial examination, and they have
lever considered either the difficulties
which environ it, or the enormous ex-
pense which it would involve for con-
'tructon and maintenance. The true
solution OF the great problem, the solv-
ng OF which Is OF such vital import
ance to all the people who hope for
continued prosperity will probably be
found In an enlargement OF the Erie
,anal. so as to admit of barges sufH-
,iently large and seaworthy as to be
capable OF navigating the lakes. and
hen the application of electricity to the
propulsion of these barges through the
enlarged canal.
The canal mule, the steam-ca boat
ahu Ihe iahe steamer diScharging Its
cargo at Buffalo, are all doomed. In
,heir place must be and there will be. a
staunch steel barge, which will load
with wheat at Deluth and not break
bulk until 1t lays along side of the
ocean steamer in New York harbor,
Such freighter utalizing the al
ready harnessed power OF Niaraga for
propulsion through the canal, will

A strong fight is going on through
out the state against the reelection of
William F. Harrity as Democratic
National committeeman for Pennsyl-
vana. He was not in sympathy with
the Bryan campaign, and is said to
have voted the Palmer ticket, and for
this reason is being opposed. Nearly
every Democratic county convention
held thus far, has endorsed the Chicago
platform, and 1t looks as though the
party will get in line under that ban
ner.

TWO COMING BATTLES
LEADING FOOTBALL TEAMS OF THE
EAST TO MEET SATURDAY.
Pennsylvania and Harvard to Fight
Princeton on New Ravens Gridiron.

PHILADELPHIA, Nov. II. = Following
the custom which has prevailed for the
past four years, the University of Penn
sylvania football eleven accompanied by
dozen substitutes, left Broad-street Station
at o'clock this morning in a special car
for the Delaware water gap. Coach Wood
ruff believes there is nothing so beneficial
to a football player after the finishing
touches have been put on as change of
scene and fresh mountain air. Since the
return of Quarterback Weeks and Right
End Dickson the Pennsylvania eleven is in
first-class condition. Weeks is suffering
from stomach trouble but was able to go
through the practice yesterday. Dickson's
knee is still giving him some trouble, and
while he will most surely be in the game
with Harvard, his chances for continuing
throughout are very slim, as the first scrim-
mage may throw the troublesome cartilage
out Of place. He has an able substitute,
however. in Hedges. There will be no Sc
we're practice at the Water gap. The men
will take run across the mountain each
morning and then line up for signal practice
and passing the ball.
The advance sale of seats for the game
which takes place at Franklin field on Sat
urday has been unprecedented. The indca-
lions are that over $4,000 persons will wit
ness the great struggle. Tickets for the
disposed of, and the seats for the two end
stands sold so rapidly that the manage
ment has found 1t necessary to erect new
east stand. This will have a seating ca
pacity of about $500, and will make the
total seating capacity Of the grounds some
thing over H0,OOO.

Fight at Columbia stage Door.

CHICAGO, Nov. 17-Overzealous atten-
tions to Miss Theresa Vaughn and Miss
Dorothy Drew. members of THE Whirl of
the Town Company. by a stylshly dressed
young man, who represented himself to be
the son of former Commodore Moller, of the
Greenwich Yacht Club, were the cause of
an exciting fight at the stage door of the
Columbia Theater late last night, between
the young man, his companion and the stage
hands. AS the fight grew warm the man
calling himself Mr.. Moller drew a revolver.
This was the signal for renewed onslaught
by the muscular stage hands, and before
he knew 1t the man with the revolver was
landed in the dark alley, where he was left
to find his way out as best he could. The
young man had been at the performance
every night since Tuesday. Accompanied
by two friends he occupied box Tuesday.
Thursday and Saturday evenings. On the
other nights they contented themselves with
seats in the first row. The cause of the row
was the attempt of the young man who
said his name was Moller and a companion
to force their way behind the scenes. Man
ager Shuts, when he found remonstrances
of no avail, left the young men to the mercy
of the stage hands,

CAREER OF MADAME GUYON.
Ebert Hubbard's Lecture Before the
Contemporary Club.

Ebert Hubbard, of Buffalo, editor of the
Philistine lectured last evening before the
Contemporary Club taking the career of
Madame Guyon as his subject His audi
ence was interested keenly in his original
way of looking at things, and listened to
him with pleasure. In the course of his
lecture, he said: ~
But Madame Guyon's success was too
great The guardians of a dogmatic re-
ligion are ever on the scent for heresy.
They are Jealous and fearful and full of
alarm lest their institution shall topple.
Quietism was making head, and throughout
France the name Of Madame Guyon was
becoming known. She went from town to
town, and from city to city, and gave
courses of lectures. women hooked TO near
her they organized clubs. Preachers some
times appeared and argued with her, but
by the high fervor of her speech she quickly
slenced them. Then they took revenge by
laundering sermons aga INST her after she
had gone AS she travelled she left in her
wake a pyrotechnic display of evolutionary
denunciation. They dared her to come back
lenges. One prelate was good enough to
say: This woman may teach primitive
Ckristianity-but if people find God every
where what's to become of usn
And although the theme is as great as
fate and as serious as death, one cannot
suppress a smile TO think how the fear of
losing their Job has ever caused men to run
violently TO and fro and up and down in the
earth, crying peace peace, when there IS
no peace.
Now it was the denunciation and wild
demonstration of her fearing foes that adj
vertised the labors of Madame Guyon. For
strong people are not so much advertised
by their loving friends as by their rabid
enemies.

in a spiral. either it might have happened
