Convicted L.ehanon Editors

At the close of the recent spirited
battle between the Quay and anti
Quay factions in Lebanon county for
a State Senator, the editors of two
Lebanon newspapers were arrested
for libel at the instance of kr Van
Valkenberg, of the Business Mems
League, who alleged that he had been
grossly libeled in publication. The
trial came on last week and resulted
in the conviction of the editors, the
evidence being absolutely conclusive
that the statements made concerning
Mr.. Van Valkenberg were without
the slightest foundation.
The fact has, since the trial, been
developed that the Hbelous article
was furnished to the editor, or to one
of the reporters on his paper, by a
detective supposed to be in the EN-
ploy of the Quay machine, and that
the detective vouched for the truth of
the statements contained in the libel
GUS article If the latter avertments
of the convicted men are true, then
the unhappy machine editors are the
victims of a detective in the employ
of the machine whose interests the
aforesaid editors were so faithfully
serving.
If the editors aforesaid should feel
revengefully inclined they have it in
their power to make things decidedly
uncomfortable for the detective who
led Them into the difficulty. Toe
many people are apt to forget that
there is law on the statute books OF
Pennsylvania, which was placed there
for the protection of editors against a
certain class of designing men who
seek to strike eowardly blows against
Others under cover. One provision of
that law which is in full force and
effects as follows
"Any person who wilfully states, delivers or
transmits by any means whatever to the man
aRer, editor, publisher or reporter OF any news
paper magazine, publication, periodical or
serial for publication therein any libelous state.
meut concerning any person or corporation and
thereby secures the actual publication OF the
same, is hereby declared guilty of misdemeanOr,
and upon conviction shall be sentenced to pay a
fine not exceeding 500. and undergo imprison-
ment for period not exceeding two years. OF
either or both, at the discretion OF the court"
Under that law an editor or pub
Usher who is made the victim Of any
designing person has it in his power
to at least punish the person who de-
ceives him and leads him into trouble
1t is evident that the Lebanon editors
would not have published the libel
GUS article if they had belieyed it tC
be false. That this is the case il
shown by their statement that they
sought to verify the truth of the
allegations contained in it, and were
assured in the most positive manner
by the detective that the article con
tanned nothing but the truth.
Whether or not the detective viii
be prosecuted under the above Law
depends entirely on the convicted
editors. The law above referred to ii
a very good one and il is well enough

Women Should Know It.

Many women suffer untold agony and
misery because the nature of their disease is
not correctly understood. They have been
led to believe that womb trouble or female
weakness of some sort is responsible for the
many ills that beset womankind.
Neuralgia, nervousness, headache, puffy
or dark circles under the eyes, rheumatism,
dragging pain or dull ache in the back, weak
ness or bearing down sensation, profuse or
scanty supply of urine with strong odor,
frequent desire to pass it with scalding or
burning sensation, sediment in it after stand
ing in bottle or common glass for twenty -four
hours, are signs Of kidney and bladder trouble.
The above symptoms are often attributed
by the patient herself or by her physician to
female weakness or womb trouble. Hence, so
many fail to obtain relief, because they are
treating, not the disease itself, but reflection
of the primary cause which is kidney trouble.
In fact, women as well as men are made
miserable with kidney and bladder trouble
and both need the same remedy.
! DR.. Kilmer's Swamp Root IS the great dis
covery of the eminent kidney and bladder
specialist, and is easy to get at any drug store
for fifty cents or one dollar.
To prove its wonderful merits you may
have a sample bottle and book telling al
about it, both sent absolutely free by mail

He Himself Ordered the Demolition

London, March 22.-The dispatch Of
Lord Cromer, British diplomatic agent
in Egypt, embodying the reply of the
sirdaT, General Lord Kitchener, of
Khartoum, to questions regarding the al
legged mutilation and useless slaughter OF
dervishes in the battle of Omdurman,
has been laid before parliament. The
sirdar says that the only wounded der
wishes killed by his troops were those
who feigned death in order to obtain OPP
portunities FOR killing the Anglo Egyp-
tians. Whatever was done" he con
tinues, was done with all possible CON
siderations OF humanity" The sirdar
justified the destruction of the tomb of
the mahdi and the dispersal OF the
prophets remains on the ground that, il
the mausoleum had been left intact and
unprofaned, it would have become the
center of fanatical pilgrimages, causing
endless trouble. He says he himself or
dered the demolition.

GENERAL MILES IN BOSTON.
Did Not Credit the Report of Nj
GbapuausS Death

Did Not Credit the Report of Mr..
Sherman's Death.
Boston, March 22.-Major General Mel
son A. Miles visited the legislature yes
terday afternoon. He first was received
by the senate, where he made brief ad
dress, expressing pleasure at being able
to visit the body. He then went to the
house, where similar program was car
ried out. Zach branch took a recess af-
ter General Miles had addressed them,
during which the members were pre-.
scented to the visitor. Just after leaving
the state house one of the afternoon pa
pers, containing the announcement that
Mr. Sherman had died, was shown to
General Miles. Unfortunately the con
Trajectory report was not received for
some hours later. and while General
Miles expressed his intention of carrying
out the days program Mrs. Miles re-
quested that her numerous engagements
should be cancelled.
This was done at once, and she return
ed TO the hotel very much depressed over
the sad news. A few hours later a
newspaper representative brought her
the welcome news that Mr.. Sherman was
still alive. The sudden change from sor-
row to JOY almost staggered Mrs. Miles,
and with tears in her eyes she thanked
the reporter for the good news saying
that Mr., Sherman had been a father to
her Tor years.
In the meantime General Miles stood
the rest OF hours of handshaking at the
Algonquin club previous to the banquet
in the same club house. In the midst
Of the festivities the corrected dispatch
was shown him, and he at once expressed
his great joy at the good news and beg
ged that the dispatch be sent at once
to Mrs. Miles. This had already been
done, and he again gave his attention
to the numerous speeches. In his own
speech, already delivered, he had de
clared his belief that Mr.. Sherman was
still alive.
