Threatened Lynchinp Near Pittsbury.


Pittsburg, July 1O-Glenwood,
suburb of this city, was thrown into
big excitement last night by the
threatened lynching of negro named
Daniel Scott. Scott, with three COM
panions, went to mill workers camp
near Hays Station, where game of
"craps" was soon started with several
of the mill men. Scott lost his all on
throw, grabbed the money and ran,
with the crowd at his heels. Patrick
Murto caught up to him and demand
ed the money. Scott pulled his revolt
yer and fired at Murto, the ball grazing
his shoulder and knocking him to the
ground without real injury. Scott was
captured, and Murtos companions,
thinking he had been murdered, want
ed to lynch the negro. Before the po-
lice arrived Scott had been used for IA
football by the crowd, and was sorry
looking object.

American Capital in British Columbia

Tacoma, Wash, July 10.-John D.
Rockefeller has purchased the Texado
Island iron mines, in British Column
bia. The mines will be operated by the
Monte Crsto Mining company, owned
and centralized by Rockefeller, and
it is probable development work will
be commenced at once. The price paid
for the property is secret. Six years
ago an effort was made to buy the
mines and $250,0OO was asked for them.
Rockefeller, it is stated will soon be-
gin the erection of a plant to handle
the ore, as at present there Is none

POLITICIANS are already engaged
10 laying plans for the election of
delegates to the conventions which
shalI nominate candidates for Pres
ident to be voted for at the election
in November in 1900. 1t is pretty
fully understood that the Republic
cana will nominate President Nc
Kinley and adopt a platform some
what similar to that adopted 10
1896. On the other hand the indi-
cations favor the denomination of
Mr.. Bry an by the Democratic party
and the affirmation Of the former
platform Of principles which led to
his defeat at the following election,
through the detection of the gold
Democrats. 1t is needless to say
that the opponents Of free coinage
Of silver at the ratio Of 10 to l, are
opposed to the nomination Of Mr..
Bryan and the adoption of the old
platform, but they are evidently in
the minority and it looks at this
time that their influence will have
but little weight. In our State the
Bry antics, under the direction of
ex-Congressman Handy are evident
ly in the majority and will dictate
the policy Of the party.
For whom the three electoral
votes Of this State shall be cast will
depend on the action of the leaders
Of the two wings of the Republican
party. II they attach more import
ance to the control of the party or
ganization and the selection Of dele
gates to the National Convention
than they do the success of the
party, then they will be defeated
and the Democrats will control all
our local Offices, even if they fail to
control the Nationa al ones. We can
not believe, however, that the con-
test for President will be 80 close
that the three votes of this State
will decide the contest, but never
theless they should be cast for Mr..
Mckinley. His election is too i'm
portant to be jeopardized by rival
factions in our State, and no ques-
ton Of representation in conven-
tons or the distribution Of offices
should for one moment be allowed
to interfere with success at the cleo
ton. It is poor policy to sink the
ship rather than 10 require the cap
tain to give up one or even all OF his
prerogatives.

LEAVING a comfortable home for
small 6X8 bed rooms in sea shore
hotels that are located half dozen
OF more squares from the ocean, has
become mania with a number of
persons. They imagine they don't
feel we'll and then the only
remedy is trip to the seashore,
where they don't have one-half the
comforts Of home, being ted in long
dining rooms that are stuffy and
hot and fed in sections so that it
takes from one hour to one and a
halfto satisfy the inner man withthe
samples that. are brought in on half
hour instruments. They left home
for rest, and instead are going from
morning until late at night taking
in the many sights to be seen. Es-
pecially is this the fact at Atlantic
City. But then it is fashionable to
60 away and board up your house
and you might as we'll be dead as
out Of the fashion, is the thought
of good many persons. A few
days rest is often better tonic for
tired nature than medicine, but few
people have an idea what rest means
and often return home from vaca-
ton feeling tired and worn out and
not benefited in the least by their
rest from business for few days
1t is an old and true saying that all
work and no play makes Jack dull

CHIEF JUsTlcB LORE made al in
teresling address in Grace M. +.
Church last night in regaid asthe
condition Of the Filipenos laad Cat-.
bans. He differed widely with the
policy pursued by our Governnent,
holding that freedom should be Civ
en- the people in those countries to
establish governments and manage
their affairs to suit their own ideas.
Chief Justice Lore has the right to
express his own opinions Of the
course pursued by the President,
in common with all other citizens,
but in doing so should be careful
and not afford aid and encourage
ment to Aguina aldo and his follow
ers to continue the course they are
now pursuing, and lead to the
slaughter Of greater number Of
his people as we'll as Of American
soldiers. Many persons believe that
had it not been for the opponents of
the acquisition Of the Philippines,
the attack on our forces at Manila,
would never have taken place, and
the resistance to our army would
long since been abandoned. Amir
nority of our citizens may oppose
the acquisition of these islands but
a majority will sustain the Presi-
dent aud the war will go on until
the. Filipenos Internationally sur
render and then peace and prosper
ity will eventually follow. In the
meantime, patriotic citizens should
be careful not to say or do anything
that can be construed into giving
aid and comfort to the enemy. The
American forces will never retire
except as victors and the sooner the
Filipenos' and their sympathisers
bow TO the inevitable. the better 1t
will be for all concerned, as we'll as
for the world at large and the Chris
tian evangeliZatlon in particular.

THE trainers of our Constitution

THE trainers Of our Constitution
.ould have inserted a clause pro-
hibiting the influencing of the course
OF members of the Legislature by
the promise OF an appointment to
Office either under State or National
Government. II seems to us TO be
about as bad to control the vote of
a member by the promise of an Of
fice, as to offer money considera-
ton. Some men have been int1uen-
ced in the past, by promises of be-
ing made Governor, Clerk OF the
Peace, postmaster and even census
enumeration. The most of these
promises were disappointing, the
parties realizing that there rs
many slip twixt the cup and the
lip" BY such bargains speaker
was made on more than one occa-
sion, but political disappointment
followed, equal to that of signing
his political death warrant. The
disappointed may see their error
just as plainly as Esau Of old saw
the folly OF giving away his birth
right for mess of pottase. All
tricksters should beware and never
falsify their word to please friend
or punish an opponent. \ man
should never make promise before
an election that he does not intend
to carry out afterwards. Let all
be truthful, if they wish to preserve
the resp ect of their friends.

T1HosE FUNNY NAMES.

Among the early seasons crop of
lectures is one dealing with the new
Hawaiian territory by recent travel
sr. HIS lecture is designed to be in
stmctive-a faithful record OF the
transfer ofsovereignty rand the hoisting
Of the American flag, Of which he was
a witness; a graphic account Of some
OF the more picturesque features of
Island scenery and Of the strange Gus
toms Of the Kanakas. While II is very
interesting, the lecturer had no
thought of making it comic in any
part. Yet in the first delivery Of the
lecture a certain very unimportant
passage elected a hearty laugh from
the audience. This rather disconcert-
ed the speaker, who was quite uncon-
scious that he had put IN a joke just
there. When he repeated the lecture
before a much larger audience there
was not only a similar manifestation
Of enjoyment Of the lecturers humor
but a vigorous round OF appaluse ar
vel. Now he has learned to expect
the interruption, ana makes a sug.
gestive pause in his address.
The remark which a series of audi.
ences has found 50 funny is the simple
statement that voyaging from Homo.
lulu to Kauai he took passage on tn,
steamer Waialeale, bound for Ma
wi!iwin."
1t is quite natural TO find amuse-
ment in the names Of our latest fellow
citizens in the eight islands Of IIa
vail. 1t would be very absurd if the,
were to look on certain American
names as very laughable combina
tions Of uncouth sylabification. Tina
is quite a different matter. The saw
age has no right to ridlcule the civil
ized. None the less, the Hawaiian
have been in the habit Of getting con
siderable enjoyment out Of tn
most treasurered OF all American
names. 1t IS no uncommon. thing Z
