The machine has had no end OF
trouble with its ticket. First, Adams,
the machine candidate for Judge, was
shown to be the associate of rascals to
such an extent that he wilted and re-
tired. Now, Barnett, who was to turn
the state upside down on account OF his
dazzling military splendor, is charged
with being skulker in time of danger,
who only left the safety of the ditch
when the battle was over. Barnett
may stay on the ticket to the finish,
but he will not reach the treasurer's
desk unless the voters of Pennsylvania
have lost their senses.

So strong is the feeling against Bar
nett in the southwestern counties
where most of the Tenth boys live that
the Republican county chairmen have
asked Reeder to keep him out OF their
counties entirely. Secretary oster-
maier, Of the Allegheny county organi-
cation, when asked few days ago
whether Barnett would speak in Pitts
burg, said: 81 think not, 1 never heard
any one mention the idea of bringing
Barnett here. We want big fellows or
none at ALL"

The Business Mems League of Phila-
delphia has announced that it will

Gordon and Ex-District Attorney George
S. Graham have been retained to man
age the legal end Of the fight.

The plea OF the Quay machine is that
the ticket must be elected by large
majority in order to bolster up McKin-
Icy and the Philippine war; but If, the
state should 20 Republican by large
majority, Mckinley and the flag
wouldn't be in it. The victory would
then be boasted vindication Of Quay
and his machine.

That Was Too Much.

Eyes, she's mad at Charlie. She told
him she knew he was just going to

And did that offend her so?"
"Oh, no, but he denied that he ever
thought of such thing.

Quail In q Print Shop.

Yesterday morning a quail few
into the Star Office, perched himself
upon the press and assumed look of
perfect satisfaction. 1t was at first
taken to be the whitewinged dove of
peace, but more complete identity left
only a question of the nature Of the
omen, as good or evil-Wathena Star.

1t is every citizens duty to vote. If
the man who never votes only when he
is coaxed or hauled to the polls were to
be deprived Of the right of suffrage, he
would consider it severe punishment;
but there isn't much difference between
the man who cannot vote and the man
who can but does not.

Farmer" Greasy declares that If he
Is elected state treasurer he will dis
regard Stones veto and pay the school
appropriation in full, unless prevented
by the supreme court. The ablest law
yers OF the state consider Stones veto
illegal, and If 1t is, the treasurer would
be but doing his duty to disregard it.

FREELAND, Pa, NOVEMBER 6, 1899.

Every Democrat owes it to his party
and his citizenship to attend the coming
election and urge others to go. A man
may say "Well, one vote doesn't count
for much" but one vote at each poll
means over 5000 in the state.

prying into Uncle Calebs secrets; but
what blessing it is he came here in
stead of stopping at Rebecca Larkns."
And when Uncle Cheverel came down
stairs he was surprised at the sweet
smiles with which his niece Jenny well
coined him,
Been mending my coat, eh?" said
Uncle Cheverel. "Thank'ee kindly,

Before she slept that night Mrs. Ell

shears proved by three or four witt
nesses how he had fallen aud scratched
his face while running away from the

we'll known citizens: o. 7. Powell,
Caleb Berry, Lee McFadin, T. J. Hox-

Miss jane Bolts and Nellie Mallory.
This syndicate furnished Mr.. Mar
shall with about $500, $500 of which
was advanced by Caleb Berry. They
were to have one-half Of the gold MIR.
Marshall might discover,
Mr.. Marshall put up a good strong
eight and did the best he could, but
finally gave up and came home. He
had a terrible time Of IT coming out
from that country, being in a snow
drift for is days, and except for the
Indians would have persisted.
He left Mr.. o. P. Jones aud Mr..
Downing and party well and hearty.
and it is hoped that they will succeed
IN finding paying dirt. They did not
like to try to come out over the
glacier.
Mr.. Marshalis many friends will be
glad TO know that he is well and in
good health, and vas very glad TO gel
back home to his family, who were re-
joiced TO see him. Jim has a better

aPeople say look at your public
debt. Ons billion dollars will cover
that. Look at the virtual debt Of FIVE
billion charged by the railroads to
transport your products, as II each
railroad bond bore the seal Of the
United States or the State. The net
earnings OF the railroads last year
were four hundred millions. They
hold q first mortgage on the toll and
sweat Of the people. The people say
'let us come to Missouri; they T out
Of debt Are WEI The railroad COM
panles report 191 million charged
against the produce.
s'The time will come when we viii
see through the courts whether the
constitution was made for the people
or for the few. ! propose to raise
revenue by taking the rent Of land
which belongs to-we say rs. We are
liars and the truth is notin ne. Iwant
to tax land that Is not IMPROBABLE
excepting by population. Don't tar
wagons, car and monies; they are
vehicles Of commerce. In a modified
way you T nov paying a tax on
money Just a you are on imported
goods. Tax the value which popula-
ton gives to land. That's the single
tax principle. That does not enhance
the value OF buildings; 1t rather de-
creases It,"
MIR. Dalton wound up bis speech
By reading statistics on railroads
which were astounding to those who
have not looked up the matter.
