People now think it quite proper to
stay at home as often and as long as
they may do so. The cause of this
quietude rests almost solely with the
abrupt change of the weather and will
positively be remedied as soon as an
other and contrary change of temper
ature sets in. That this latter change
will soon occur being earnestly hoped
by many Of our people, can hardly
be disputed; for to be shut up in
ones own house any great length of
time, isay two days. is-we]l, either

much on the number of windows in

and other bric-a- -brac which have too

foothold. Upon the number of re-
naming square feet depends oh, it
doesn't, does it? Well, then on what
does our happiness or mystery depend
during these to some people short,
but to others seemingly long, cold

this question than there are bees in

Charles Il. Thomas

Mr.. Chas. M. Thomas, the Republican
candidate Tor County Treasurer, is en-
phatically self-made man. He came TO
Cameron county thirty years ago from
his native State Of Maine, and first en-
gagged in numbering near Emporium, as a
day laborer. By strict attention to his
duties be rapidly gained foot hold and
is to-day one Of the most successful lum-
bermen in this section Of the State. The
firm of Thomas & Whiting, both resi-
dents Of this county, are conducting
large lumber jobs on Bailey Run, giving
steady employment to a large force of
men, most Of whom are Cameron county
boys. Next season this successful firm
will be operating on this side of the
county line.
1t has been reported to injuro Mr..
Thomas with the voters, that he is not
interested in Cameron county. This re
port is false. Mr. Thomas is LARGE
property owner and large taxpayer, his
tax in Emporium borough alone amount
ing to $500 per year That Mr.. Thomas
has managed his own affairs successfully
Is sufficient evidence that he will lust as
carefully conduct the finances of Cameron
county, when called on to enter upon the
discharge of his duties as County Treas
urer.
Mr.. Thomas will give the office his
personal attention, all reports to the con-
trary Notwithstanding. His election is a

RoSenZweig's Bad Break.

While Rosenzweig, the oily tongued
speaker from Erie, was delivering his
scurrilous and violent invectives
against the Republican party of Penn
sylvania, last Thursday evening, and
was trying in vain to show to the
people how they had been robbed and
imposed upon by the late legislature,
his zeal to turn the searchlight, not of
truth, but of Democratic slander and
abuse, upon the acts of Republican
members got the better of his reason
ing faculties and in one of his bril-
liant (?) flights of oratory, he said:
"Why voters of Cameron county, the
last session of the State legislature was
one of the worst in the history
of the State; just look at the
records of the men composing it; just
look at the record of your own member
and then Judge for yourself" And
then the Doctors friends who were
present grew red in the face, coughed
few times, moved about uneasily in
their seats and inwardly felt like Civ
ing the gentlemen from Erie a few
wholesome kicks, while many of the
Republicans who were there could not
refrain from smiling out loud.

A Quibbler.

Joseph Sibley in his speech at the
opera house last week said that he is
not, and never was, a free trader.
This prevarication shows that Sibley is
not fool; this shows that he under
stands perfectly we'll that he must get
the votes of protectionists if he is to
be elected. This is Honest Josephs bid
for the votes of honest men, but all
the same the Honorable Joseph G.
Sibley, of Franklin, Venango county,
Pa, is 4 free trader, and one of the
rankest ones in the United States.
Mr.. Sibley said in referring to free
silver, that it would be time to talk
about that in 1900, two years from
now. Indeed Mr.. Sibley, is that so?
and yet we are to elect a United States
Senator from Pennsylvania next year,
We believe, who will remain in office
till 1904. The Senate is very close
pow, and if we elect democratic Sen
ator next year the great protection
state of Pennsylvania may present the
anomalous spectacle of a great Repub-
lican and protectionist Commonwealth
pressing the combination which will
inflict upon the country another
''Wilson BILL" another series of pa
tional deficits, and bond issues such as
has already, under Cleveland, well
nigh disgraced the country from
business stand point.
Down with the quibbler, the whole
outfit. Vote the straight Republican
ticket from top to bottom and take no
chances. Give the President a fair
show, send him a Republican Congress
and Republican Senate, and let him
finish in peace the work he has so
nobly begun. The war may be over
but the great questions growing out of
the war are as yet scarcely pro-
pounded.
In all fairness and right, President
Mckinley ought to be allowed to finish
his term without being hindered, nag
ged at and paralyzed by democratic
House.

r1Ore Truth Than Poetry.

A man who enters politics styling
himself a performer" needs very close
watching. Past experience has shown
nine out of ten of them to be hypocrites
of the worst character. This statement
is correct. Recount in your mind all
the selfannounced ''reformers" you
have ever known of and see if they
don't verify it. A selfannounced Gre
former" will usually lie, steal, sell him
self or do anything else to gain for his
own benefit. Study their actions awhile
and you'll find them out. t.-Waynesburg

"They Saw

"They say'' the war is over and it is
no longer desirable to remember the
Maine" But, it is very good time
to remember the "Wilson BILL" and
the rotten, puerile and disgraceful
management of the last Democratic
Congress.
That Congress, the Democratic mai
ority of it, did not know enough to
frame tariff bill that would provide
revenue enough to meet the ordinary
expenses Of the government; and that
was genuine, old, Jefferson-Jackson-
Andy Johnson-Beauregar Democratic
Congress, Simon-pure and no discount.
But, the party has changed since
then. Alas! too true! 1t has changed.
If such financial and economic mis-
management is all we could expect
from the real old original Vallanding-
Buchanan Democrats, what
should we expect now, when
all the fads, freaks and fancies,
find warm welcome and honored posi-
tions in the councils of the party?
Alas! poor old Jefferson Jackson; it is
a good thing you are dead.
Every vote for Swallow is halfa vote
for jerks. Every vote for DR.. Smith
is a whole vote for Democratic United
States Senator, and for Republican
to vote for either of them is to give aid
and comfort to the enemy, and no
Republican who is also a patriot can
afford to do that. Perhaps you could
not enlist and suffer on the CORY field
Of battle; too old, married, false teeth,
or one thing or another kept you back,
but you can do the next best thing,
you can help the cause ofright, justice,
freedom and humanity by voting the
straight Republican ticket. Vote it
straight from top to bottom. Just put
a cross in the circle at the head of the
Republican column, and let 'er go.

"You can't vote for President Nc

Emory Smith. "If you could I know
how that vote would be cast. But you
can strengthen and support him in the
work that has been 50 nobly begun by
sending representative to Congress
who will not thwart, but work hand in
hand with him.
"Elect Democratic Congress and
you encourage nations who look with
jealous eyes upon the progress of this
grand and glorious country, which did
not fight for conquest, glory or ag-
grandizement, but to relieve distress
ed and down-trodden people,"

Surprising News.

We aware that the member from little
Cameron cuts but small figure in the House,
especially if he be a Democrat, because of the
overwhelming Republican majority in that body,
but by looking the record, we find the vote
OF Dr.Smith recorded on the side of the people as
against the jobbers and trusts Independent.
We are glad to hear the Independent
acknowledge that a democrat has lit
tie influenced in the Pennsylvania House
of Representative and that is one rea-
son why the people should elect Hon.
Henry III. Mullin, who has proven that
he has influence to pass legislation in
the interest of his county.
No doubt the editor of the hide
pendent heard the eloquent(?) remarks
of Rosenzweig the other evening who
probably had examined the records of
Smith to see whether he voted with
the people Or not. The editor Of the
Independent would do well to put on
his glasses and take a squint at Smiths
record, for then he would know that
ROsenzweig's unintentional bad break
was true. He will also be able to as
certain how many times Dr. Smith
voted with the people (the few days
that he was present in the House) and
he will be astonished to ascertain how
many times he DID NOT VOTE with
the people.
Will you give DR.. Smiths votes as
recorded on the Beer and Whisky
Trust tax bill, a measure proposed for
the purpose of raising the monies to
conduct our charitable institutions and
common schools for two years 4? You
will find it recorded on page 371O of

goodly number of small boys, and a
few Republicans who had assembled
there to hear the biennial complaint OF
the calamity howler and listen to the
worthy disciples of Annanias give
vent to their distorted imagination in
describing the horrible atrocities (?)
perpetrated by the Republican legisla-
tors during the present administration.

vile and contemplate ISLANDERS told
about men whose names are synOno-

legislature.
Joe Sibley representing the Standard
Oil Co. and other trusts of which he is
stockholder, was then trotted forth
by the chairman to show off what
smart tricks he knew. Joe acted very
coy and after greeting the audience
with bland smile went on to inform
the voters of Cameron county that he
was running in the 9th. district
against Hon. G. w. Stone, which state
ment created a great surprise among
the audience. After telling a real fun
ny story about a one eyed mule in
Nebraska, Joe remarked that the free
silver question was not an issue in this
campaign, and no doubt if the mule
had heard this startling announcement
he would have brayed a hearty 'amen"
and gone on eating his popcorn con-
tentedly. Realizing that his oratorical
efforts were in vain and that he was
not arousing much enthusiasm he gave
a parting admonition to ''the faithful

speakers. Joe possesses some of the
abilities of an orator but is entirely too
fanatical and presumptuous to capti-

ton last week of Harry HI. Mullin,
editor of the Emporium Press, for the
Assembly from Cameron county. He
has been there one term and knows

Hon. H. II. Mullin has again been
nominated as the Republican candi-
date for the Legislature in Cameron
county. There is every probability
that he will be elected, as the men who
fought him the last time he run will
support him in this campaign. Harry
as he is popularly called, is not only
member of the House, gives him ex-
ceptional advantages in being of SER

H. o.

Dcdr SIR: -
CHANGING to meet with you about the
time Mr. Sibley was announced as the
Democratic candidate for Congress, |
made to you the remark that if he still
favored the free coinage of silver on the
basis of "l6 to |, and adhered to the
so-called Chicago platform, [ could not
give him my vote and would cast it for
you.
| have since learned that he continues
to sustain this platform, and proposes, if
elected, to aid in carrying out its populis-
tic and socialistic dogmas. These are
hostile to my views of what is to the best
interests Of the masses, who by toll make
their way through the world Hence, |
cannot in good conscience give him my
support. Mr.. Sibloy apologetically in
formed Gold Democrats and Sound
Money Republicans who have local
grievances, that his election will not affect
these questions because President Nc
klnley will prevent such legislation from
by his veto. This is an evasion rather
than an answer. If Mr.. Sibley's views
are right, we should support him because
of them; if wrong, oppose him for the
same reason. The effect OF eIectine him
would be to show our people and the
country that We favor the silver standard,
which is Exceptionally called bimetallism,
and a departure from the use of the good
money, which has ever been the pride of
the American people. We now draw
our purses with coIidehse that what we
tender will be accepted in every cline.
No blush need mantle our cheeks. [ am
Democrat still and believe the party
will return to its first love. The signs
are propitious, and | Will aid what [ can
by firm adherence.
These views are not private.
