Shaking the Plum Tree.

There is a movement among inde-
pendent Republicans" says the Phila-
delphia Record of Oct 13. "to better
the state government in Pennsylvania
by taking Senator Quay out of reach
of the plum tree That Is the idea of
Mr.. Wanamaker and of DR.. Swallow.
THE Democrats of Pennsylvania
have a better intent. They propose to
take the plum tree out of the reach of
Senator Quay and of all others who
might be tempted to shake it to gather
Illicit fruit. They insist upon return
to the letter of the constitution, and
that the state shall be governed ac-
cordingly."

possibly a controlling interest, in the
competing pipe lines, but as such inter-
est was obtained in violation of law,
1t was essential to the Standards sue
cess that the law be repealed
During the term of Governor Beaver
the repeal was not demanded, because
at this time the Standard had not
obtained sufficient stock of the COM
peting lines, and during the second
term of Pattison such a demand would
have met with an executive rebuke
which the legislative body would not
have dared to ignore.
In 1895 the Standard saw the oppor-
tunity for the repeal of the act of June
13, 1888, and it gave the signal to begin
operations. The senate, under the lead
of Goblin and others, was willing and
subservient tool, and the house, led by
Marshall of Allegheny and Cochran of

on platform pledging him to reform
measures, a platform which obtained
for Hastings the cordial support of men
in nowise affiliated with his party, but
who believed that he would prove him
self a genuine reformer such as the
times demanded. They were doomed
to disappointment.
The seventh act of the legislature to
meet his approval, an act passed before
he had accommodated himself to his
strange surroundings, was a repeater
of the act Of 1888. How much money,
If any. was received by interested par
ties, is not known, but 1t is known that
E. Standard agents declared that the re-
peal of the act of 1883 would be followed
for short time by a rise in the price
of oil. 1t is also known that the promise
was made good, much to the disgust
of the consumers, who were robbed at
the rate of five cents per gallon on
Standard refined oil so that political
speculators and others could make
thousands of dollars dealing in mar
gins.
So much for Republican rule and the
Standard Oil company. Now as to the
Standard and Hon. George A. jerks.
1t was Lawyer George A. jerks, asso-
ciated with Lawyer Wilson and others,
who, as attorneys for the oil producers,
had the Standard oil gang indicted for
conspiracy in the Clarion county court.
If this makes Hon. George A. jerks
Standard man, fellows like Rocka-
feller, Bostwick, Flagler and their min
ions, Scheidie and O'Day, are not aware
of the alliance.

UNCONSTITUTIONAL SALARIES
Flagrant Abuse of the Constitution in the
Interest of Adjutant General
Thomas T.. Stewart

Thomas j. Stewart was appointed by
Governor Hastings on Jan. Is, 1896 to
the office of adjutant general at the
then salary of $1,000 per annum. He
accepted the appointment, and at once
entered upon his duties. Before assum-
ing the duties of adjutant general
Thomas j. Stewart did solemnly swear
or affirm that he would support, obey
and defend the constitution of this COM
monwealth." When he thus pledged
his support and obedience Thomas ].
Stewart must have known that Sec
ton 13 of Article 8 of the constitu-
ton reads as follows:

any public officer, or increase or di-
minish his salary or emoluments after
his election or appointment"
Four months and fifteen days after
he had accepted his appointment Thom-

defiance of the mandate of the con-

ture, approved by Governor Daniel
Hastings, said act reading as follows:

1t was about 6 $50 A. NJ, but Mrs. Pray,
who had always been an early riser, was
up and dressed. The only other member
of the family awake was little Elisabeth
Day. In some way the old ladys cloth
Ing caught fire from Kerosene lamp and
she rushed into the hallway on the second
story of the house crying fire. Elizabeth,
who was the first to hear the disturbance,
also began crying fire and this awoke the
rest of the family. Mrs. j. C. Day rush
ed into the hall and seized Mrs. Pray Just
at the head of the stairs; she was en-
veloped in flame and Mrs. Day was badly
burned about the head and her hands were
blistered nearly all over. The flames and
the struggle of Mrs. Pray proved too
much for Mrs. Day and the unfortunate
woman plunged down the stairs, landing
In a corner of the hall at the foot of the

too late. There was an ugly cut in the
