A TRAITORS PRAYER.

Over in the Philippines, where the rains
descend, and the American soldier boy
faces a desperate enemy, that arch-scoun-
drel and traitor, Aguinaldo, presumes to
offer up prayer to the God of the uni
verse, that He will let the Democratic
party win in the next Presidential cleo
ton, so that our flag may be hauled down,
the Nation disgraced in the eyes of the
world, and our soldiers called home. This
will no doubt be pleasant news to every
true, patriotic American citizen. 1t will
cause him to study great while and to
ask himself the question, why should
this little adventurer NEEDLE with Ameri-
can politics ?" 1t will not be of great
service to the Democrats, for the people
do not like the idea of the man who is
leading troops against our flag, and shoot
ing our boys, praying for the success OF
any party, when that success means vic
tory for the enemies of our government
We believe his prayer will be repudiated
by every sensible, intelligent Democrat in
the land, and that it will be the means oil
awakening the people here, and especially
the Democratic party, to a realization ol
the false hope which that party is holding
out to the Filipinoss of success in their eff
forts to stay our attempt to establish fol-
them a safe and stable government. NJ
party can afford to attach itself to those
who are fighting our government in for
eign lands. The people will destroy it
This is a portion of Aguinaldo's inter.
view:
"We should pray God that the grea
Democratic party may win the next Pres
idential election, and Imperialism fail il
its mad attempt to subjugate us by force
Of arms"

The Pennsylvania Republican League
protests against and demands the repeal
of the Civil Service Law. We hope the
agitation Of this matter will be continued
until the law is wiped from the statute
books. The idea Of keeping those who
are opposed to the party in power IN Of
fee, is a ridiculous one. TO the vlctors
belong the spoils, and we sincerely hope
that intelligent. capable, deserving Re-
publicans will be appointed to every Of
fee under the government.

Our friend, Grant Pitzer, of the Mar
tinsburg Herald, has gone away back tc
1864 for ammunition to fire at the DEM
ats.-Shepherdstown Register.
We simply quoted a portion OF the
Democratic National platform, for the
year 1864. 1t struck the center of the
target, too. There is nothing in the
world so aegravating and deadly, as to
be shot by ammunition we make ourselves.
That 1864 ammunition was very effective
lit drove the Democratic party to defeat
then. The same kind of opposition tc
the boys in the field, will do likewise in
1900.

oregon Girl KiIis a Rear.

A few years ago 0. ID. Garrison's six
year-old boy succeeded in killing a
deer, and now comes the news that a
g00-pound bear was killed a few days
ago by his 13-year-old daughter, Mabel
says the st. Helens Mist Mr.. CARR
son lives on Scappoose Creek. There
are a good many bears there. Mr.. Gar
rison and family, accompanied by Ed
Gore and Paul Bonser, left for a little
hunting excursion to Bald Mountain
and il was agreed that If a bear was
sighted Mabel was to have the firsi
chance at his life. AZ luck would have
it, they had not proceeded far wher
one was seen $50 yards ahead, and q
rifle was Immediately handed the little
girl by her father. and she was told tC

his head.

AND OPTICIANS.



We heard the brushwood cracking
before the passage of some heavy ami
NAL and without a word we levelled
our weapons and waited, says a writer
in Blackwoods. We saw advancing to-
ward us an enormous bear, whose great
eyes cleaned savagey in the pale light
as he came near Now he was within
twenty yardss of where we stood, and
as his huge forelegs paved the air
clumsily in his endeavor to climb over
fallen tree. his white breast was fully
exposed in the moonlight. Let him
have the buckshot, Stewart" / whis-
pered, and the report of his gun rever-
berated through the wooded slopes.
This was followed by savage roar
from the bear, and, stepping clear of
the smoke, / could see Bruin, the blood
streaming from his head and the great
tongue lolling out, staggering wildly
forward. His head has been too tough,
Stewart: I'll need to spoil him, after
all" | said, regretfully and / pulled
the trigger of my rifle and sent a soft
point bullet right into the great yawn-
ing mouth, scarce dozen yards away.
The sharp crack of my rifle was fol-
lowed by no smoke, and ! threw the
lever open and was ready for another
shot; but it was unnecessary the great
bear lay dead on the snow, fast stain
ing its white surface with his blood
We went forward to examine him, and
found that two of Stewards pellets had
penetrated his eyes, while the rest had
had little effect on his sloping fore
head. My bullet had entered his mouth,
and a large hole in the back of the
skull showed where that deadly dun
dunn" had made it's exit.

She Wanted Hairnins.

There is story told at the expense Of
David b. Henderson that he cannot out
live. AS everybody knows, free seed
distribution has been his hobby fol-
many years. He fairly swamped the
farmers of his State with free seeds
from the time he first went to Con-
gress.
One morning Mr.. Henderson received
a postal in his mail written by an Iowa
farmers wife. 1t read:
Johns influence can't be got with
fifteen cents worth of free seeds, but
if you will send me a box of hairpins
will look after him. HIS WIFE"
Another postal card called for free
jackknives instead of free seeds. I'm
that case" sdid the writer 'radish
seeds would not come up poor turnips
and the poor Congressman would be
saved much ridicule.'

The Independent, of Shepherdstown,
has been purchased by MIR. Harry Snyder,
editor and owner of the Shepherdstown
Register, who will consolidate the two
papers. This is a wise move, as the Reg
lister is one Of the very best papers in the
State, credit to its proprietor, and
home paper Of splendid reputation. There
was no occasion for two papers in Shep-
herdstown. 1t meant cut-rates and un-
necessary work. We congratulate friend
Snyder, and hope he may live long ard
prosper.

strength in a Mixture of Races

The real American, not the average
but the typical American, is the com
pick and combined resultant of the
many races that have come TO this con-
tinent for the last four centuries. His
"motherland" is the world. 1t is pre-
cisely this fact that has made possible
the unexampled achievements of the
past, and it enables us to look to the
future with sober, but confident cour-
age. The energy, independence and as
pirations of the strongest in each of the
nationalities that make up the Ameri-
can nationality belong to it by inherit
ance and development.-N York

The great obstacle that Mr.. Bryan has
to overcome in his campaign is that in
1892 he predicted that we would become

silver. Though he has famed the all

The National financial statement for
the last quarter, shows an excess of re-

time such thing has occurree since 1898,

is needed for the development of this
country and the good of the people, is to
re-elect Mckinley, and it will be done.

THE sftARpsHooTER.

A soldier went riding away to the war;
With a sword and sash and jacket 81
blue;
The notes Of the buglc we're sweet on the
air.
And the drummer was beating merry
tattoo.
But his sweetheart was left in the dawn
and the dew,
With the tears Of love and Of fear on her
face,
While the cluster Of roses she wore ather
breast
Was broken and crushed by his parting
embrace.
The soldier came riding home from the
war,
To the cheers and the music that welcome
the brave.
The ivy had hidden the latch Of her door,
And green were the grasses that covered
her grave.
For the sharpshooter death through the
trenches had passed,
And left him unframed in the tempest of
lead
To stop at the little white house in the
north,
And take for his target a pretty brown
head.
