ed state treasures shall endeavor
to FIJI that office to the best OF my abil-
ity and in accordance with the prin-
ciples of the Republican party. We
are on the eve of one Of the most inn
portant presidential contests this ma
ton has ever known and we are told
by the Democratic party that there
are no national issues involved. They
ignore the radical differences and the
principles of the two parties and try
to confine their campaign to state is
sues alone, but they forget that their
own official deductions contradict their
position. If you read the Democratic
state platform you will see that 1t has
endorsed William j. Bryan and the
utterances of The Chicago PLATFORM
There is no escape for it, they are l,in-
ned to it. They are committed to every
one of the populistic doctrines adrCCat-
ed by Bryan ana what does Bryan saw.
He has been going over the country
preaching free silver heresy and the 16
to 1 fallacy, denouncng the admins
tration of the Republican party and
he has condemned William Mckinley
for extending, the benefits of civiliza-
tion and humanity to oppressed and
starving people, thus by that platform
they have brought before the people
the very issues which must be fought
out in the next presidential campaign
and it is upon these issues alone that
the present campaign must be
waged."

NoN-SUIT GRANTED.
Employe of Powder Company Ac-
cepts Risks of an Explosion.

Wilkes Barre, Oct. 15.-In the i'm
portant damage case of Eugene f.
Hartland against the oliver Powder
company for $4,000 damages for in
juries and burns received in an explo-
sion at the powder mills five years
ago, Judge Halsey yesterday morning
granted a non-suit. He said:
I'VE find that the rules of law gov
erning risks assumed by employees to
be that by contracting for the per-
formance of duties employees assume
such risks as are incidental to their
discharge. Employees are bound 10
take notice of the ordinary operati IN
of natural laws and to govern them
selves accordingly. If they fail TO
do so the risk is their own. They
are bound to use their eyes, and if
they fail to do so they cannot charge
the consequences upon the master.
Where the danger is open and OBJ
vious and within the knowledge of
the employe at the time of the en-
ployment he cannot complain if sub
sequently injured by exposing himself
to such danger.
The plaintiff here was sweeping the
powder from the walk between the
mixer and distributing shed at the
time of the accident. He testifies
that he was doing this for the purpose
of preventing it from taking fire. This
was the green powder from the mixer
that had fallen from the boxes. He
also testifies, upon examination,
| that he knew the powder in the dis
| tributing shed was dangerous and liza
BILE to burn. 1t seems, therefore, 10
us, that the danger and risk of the
| plaintiffs employment was open and
obvious to him and within his knowl-
| edge before the accident"
