ton to Senator Quay. The malig-
nifty of this causeless warfare has
produced its natural result. The
reaction which always follows such
unjustifable persecution has come.
The people are passing judgment
upon this shameless conspiracy
and in every county where they
have had opportunity have rebuked
the men who Matched it by MAORI
ties whose meaning cannot be mis-
understood. The Vaccinations of
malcontents and disreputable place
seekers have come to naught, and
the men who conceived them are
receiving the condemnation which
their hypocrisy and treachery
merit, while the man at whom
their envenomed shafts were aimed
stands acquitted and vindicated
before the world, first by the ver-
dict of the court and afterwards by
that of the people at the polls.

the Philippines during the past
week. Gen. Otis is slowly but
surely closing in on the insurgents,
and unless Aguinaldo surrenders
very soon his forces will be ami
hilated. Operations are rendered
difficult over there by the begin
ming of the rainy season, but they
have never ceased for day, and
will not cease as leng as there are
hostile Filipinos. The latest in
formation from Admiral Dewey, is
that he will leave Manila, on his
flagship, the Olympia, in few
days, homeward bound, coming by
way of Europe. From his state
ment that he would take about
four months to make the trip, it is
assumed that he will stop in a
number of places, his object prob
ably being to give himself and men
a needed rest, and not to arrive in
the L. S. until after all the warm
weather is over. No orders have
been or will be given him by the
Navy Department as to how or
when he shall return. He has
full authority to arrange the matter
in accordance with his own com
fort and pleasure.

War Has rlade Us Famous.

WASHINGTON, ID. c., May 12.-
S. NJ. Taylor, United States Con-
sui to Glasgow, formerly Secretary
of State, of Ohio, and one of Presi-
dent McKinley's campaign manag-
ers, has just returned for a short
vacation and to attend the Repub-
lican Convention at Columbus.
He was at the State Department,
making a verbal report as to trade
conditions in Scotland.
''rhe war with Spain" said he,
was of great benefit to the United
States, considering the advertising
given to us in the Old World.
Among the ordinary classes in
Europe there were not many who
had any appreciation of our size,
power or commercial Importance.
The truth is they had not given us
much thought. But now every
person abroad is talking of the
victorious nation and giving it
some study and examination. In
my judgment it will not be Il great
while until this will have a whole
some effect upon our trade and give
us market where our goods here

THE VERDICT in BRADFORD.
The People of that County Disguised
With False Pretense and
Sham Reform.
From the Towanda Reporter-Journal, Rep.

From the Towanda Reporter-Journa Rep.
The result of last Saturday s
primaries is all that the friends of
Senator Quay could ask. The
vote, especially in the farming dis
tricts, was small, but it was large
enough to reflect accurately the
sentiment of the people. In the
81 voting districts of the county
the Quay delegates received 2,22S
votes and the anti-Quay delegates
,236. In other words there were
nearly two times as many votes
for Quay as there were against him.
The truth is so plain that no
candid seeker for it oan mistake it.
The Republicans of Bradford coun-
ty are indignant at the the malig-
nant wurfare that few self-seek-
ing, disappointed, hypocritical
political adventurers have been
waging against the senior Senator
from this State. They are tired
and disgustod with the false pre-
tense and the sham reform of Boss
David Martid, Boss Bill Finn and
Honest John Wanamaker.
There have been many things
connected with the history of the
Quay regime which a large num-
Der of the Republicans of the State
do not defend and which they are
honestly trying to correct. Many
outside of the ranks of the anti
Quay Republicans have sympa-
thized with them in their efforts in
this direction. But many of these
men now realize that this move
ment has been perverted from it's
true purpose and has been made
to serve the selfishness and spleen
of demogogues whose only object
in advocating it was their own
gain; they have seen an effort for
purer politics turned into personal
warfare against a man whose un-
pardonable sin was his hostility to
the schemes of corrupt place seek
ers, and they have seen the move
ment to secure better administra-
ton of State affairs dominated by
band of political bosses who have
entered into conspiracy to ruin a
rival whose greatest offending was
his success in defeating their plots
and plans.
No one who knows Boss Dave
Martin or Ross Bill Finn will for
a moment suspect that they were
sincere in their professions of love
for purer politics and cleaner
methods in State government, and
no one is deceived by their opposi-

The Democratic theory is never
correct in practice, and the disas-
GrOus administrator of Cleveland
from 1898 to 1897 will never be
forgotten. 1t was then that the
Democratic party, for the first
time since the close of the Civil
War, had full control of the Gov
ernment; and everybody knows
what mess it made of business.

Good Men rlust Always be Paid For.

FROM lHe O1h uaZeltt
Perhaps if the government would
revise its salary list 50 that men
with ability and integrity would
not be called upon to make sacri-
fees when they enter its service
there would never be such dis
graceful cases as that which the
secret service officers recently un-
earthed in Philadelphia. 1t is a
lamentable fact that from one end
of the land to the other the ma
tional government and the Com
monwealths demand the highest
order of talent and offer in return
a salary that is mere pittance.
The salaries should be revised so
that an honest man, though he be
poor, can take the responsible
offices. The salary list might
amount to astonishing proportions,
but in the end it would prove to be
a wise move. The experience of
the large business concerns is
ample proof that this is so.

WASHINGTON LETTER.
From our Regular CorTeSpondent)
WASHINGTON. Nav 18th 1SQ


Secretary Long enthusiastically
endorses the project of raising a
sum of money by popular subscrip-
ton to present Admiral Dewey
with a house in Washington. 1t
would be fitting popular tribute
to the man who in a day raised
the United States to a position
among the nations of the world,
which with all its power and
wealth, it had never before occu-
pied, and, moreover it will be a
tribute that the gallant Admiral
will need. He will be, until his
death, which a grateful country
trusts may not occur for many
years, the ranking officer of our
Navy, and as such his proper home
will be Washington. 1t is true
that his salary as Admiral is
Sl3, 900 a year, but it would be q
difficult matter for a man of George
Dewey's generous impulses to
maintain an establishment in
Washington suitable to his rank
on that amount. and he has no
other income. With a handsome
home given to him, he could live
as the highest officer in the United
States Navy ought to live, and,
judging by the reception given the
idea in WashingtOn: there are few
persons in the country who will
not consider it an honor to con-
tribute to the Dewey home fund.
Those who know the Admiral best
say that it would be well to push
this project to conclusion before
he reaches this country lest he
should kill it by asking that no
money be contributed for such a
purpose.
There has been little change in

Citacion 4 la WatterSon.

y :" : If the cholera sweeps
across the Philippines; if the lepers
get loose and Oyerrun Hawaii: if
the yellow fever RACES in Cuba and
Porto Rico, and, if wheat be down
TO fifty cents q bushel, Mr.. Bryan
will be the next President of the
United States. But, otherwise, it
seems to us the force of circum-
stances will overcome the force of
his eloquence and intentions. Z: x
= q The Courier-JoUrnalh has taken
the position that Mr.. Bryan can
not be elected in 1900. All that
he said about silver in 1896 has
been repudiated by events. The
prices Of wheat and silver have not
kept together in a downward
course; the operations OF the gold
standard have not resulted in a
contraction of currency, and times
and wages have not grown worse.
Never have economic theories been
50 hatly and speedily contradicted
and falsitied. and Mr.. Bryan is too
closely identified with them to win.
Mr.. Bryan may think that he can
afford to fiout the young manhood
OF the country by smirching
a military service which he
me himself abandoned the moment
he was ordered to duty. If he
fails to get votes enough, he may
ascribe it to the wanton affronts
which he is heaping upon men who
are not in politics, as he is, for
what they expect to get out of it,
but who have convictions of duty,
who know what is fair and just,
and who, leaving the professional
politicians to their own devices,
mean to do what is right though
the heavens fall. Louisville
COurier-J Journal.
Right you are, Mr.. Watterson!
We agree with you, and so will
every American citizen unless he
be blinded by the fallacies of parti-
zanship, that the trend of events
have in no wise confirmed Mr..
Bryans sophisticated philosophy
of 1896; that it will not condone to
his credit to wantonly and vivac-
iOusly cast unwhOlesome insinua-
tions upon War Department
which he deserted when called
upon for actual service. He won
for himself the military distinction
and the epaulets of a Colonel in
the [. ;. A., but it was not in the
field Of battle leading his men to
Game and victory in the midst of
shrieking shell and awful carnage.
He tin-SOldiered about the country
in the uniform of Colonel and when
about to be ordered to duty re-.
signed his commission. Had he
been loyal enough and brave
enough he would to-day be sharing
with that gallant Colonel Funston
and others some of the glories of
actual warfare, instead of running
at large over the country and
heaping abject criticisms and unjust
imprecations upon the heads of men
whom we are constrained to believe
are his superiors mentally, morally
and politically, and trying to rob his
fellow citizens Of the plaudits and
praises-by casting shadow upon
the cause for which they are fight
ing--they have elected from an
appreciative and patriotic people.
