For the Flag with the oonstIti

For tile Flag With the ConstItlI-
tIon out West.
New York Daily News.
The Republican denial that the
United States Constitution goes
with the flag, and the assertion that
the latter may wave over subject
colonies whereof the natives may
be governed in any manner that
may please the fancy of William
Mckinley, is causing moro and
more dissatisfaction the more it is
studied in the West, and in some
of the States there are already signs
of coming political revolution.
Members of the Presidents own
party-even oficeholders of prom
inence under him who have been
over the ground, are coming back
to Washington with thu one story
to tell-that the voters do not be-
lieve in taking any territory into
the Union which cannot be fitted
for ultimate, self-governing State
hood. They are most positively
opposed to the imperial colonial
idea, and they are thoroughly in
oensed at the breach of faith with
the Porto Ricans who were led firm
ly to believe that they would be
treated as members of Uncle SANS
family, and not as conquered hew-
ers of wood and drawers of water.
The feeling of indignation at the
Administrations treatment of the
Porto Ricans is not by any means
confined to Indiana, in which State
nearly every leading politician and
official of prominence has spoken
most emphatically in denunoiation
of the present Mckinley policy. II
is quite as strong in Minnesota, in
Iowa, in Michigan, in Wisconsin,
and even in Illinois, in each of
which the Republicans had great
maiorities in 1896, and even up to
last fall.
Minnesota and Iowa are reported
to be quite as uncertain in their al
legiauce to the Republicans as
Indiana, where no Congressman
who expects denomination and
re- election dares defend the new
Mckinley theory that the Stars
and Stripes may wave as the en-
sign of American sovereignty while
the Constitution is of no effect.
Such widespread revolt in a
section of the country that the Re-
publicans have regarded as one of
their strongholds ought surely to
have SOLDERING effect at Washing
ton, but the grip of Hanna and the
contractors syndicate on the oc-
cupant of tho White House is evil
IDENTITY too strong to enable him to
once moro turn a somersault on
this question and get back to the
views he held last December about
his and the country's duty toward
Porto Rico.

An Old Case Decided.

The claim of Lawyer l.. S. Winter
steen to the ownership of aoI shares
of Bloomsbury Iron Company stock,
formerly held by the estate of the late
Samuel Knorr, was declared by Judge
Little, in court last week, to be in-
valid. The stock, which Wintersteen
declared belonged to him, had been
assigned by Mary A. Knorr, executrix
of the deceased, to James Scarlet and
Levi Waller, on February 2I, 1900.
Judge Little in his opinion said that
the stub of the stock certificate book
of the Iron Company showed that
certificate NJ, IS5, dated February Z,
1898, for 2of shares, was issued TO
the estate of Samuel Knorr, which
was the best evidence of ownership.
The receiver of the company was Or
dered to pay Messrs. Waller and Scar
let, out Of the money in his hands,
sum OF money equal to IS per cent.
OF the par value of 2oI shares of the
capital stock OF the said company, the
par value Of each share being $50, or
the sum Of $3,5I7.5o.

Christianity and the Flag to Cover Robbsr,

Senator Hanna in his Saturday
night Pittsburg Grafton declared
that 1--WE are paying $500, 900, 900
per year into the pockets of foreign
ship owners" This is an exag-
geration but if it were true, what
then ? Do not the foreign ship own
ers render us $500, 900, 900 worth
of service in carrying our farm,
mine and manufactured products to
foreign buyers more cheaply than we
can afford to do it ourselves?
Mr.. Hanna would tax the farm
ers and miners and manufacturers
of the country in order to establish
a subsidized Shipping Trust, the
government making good the losses
and insuring comfortable profit on
an otherwise losing business. The
willy old Buckeye millionaire prates
about "the flag" and about chris
tianizing and civilizing the world" "
but all the time he is carefully cal
culating his percentages and how
much he can rake in in the name
of the flag and christianity and civ
ilization at the expense of the pro-
ducers of this country. Rilaael-

Died Away From Home.

The following article is taken
from the Hazleton Sentinel of May
IL. The deceased was a grandson
Of the late Mrs. Catharine Barton
Of Espy, and son of Alfred Bar
ton of Hazleton.
Frank Barton is dead ~ This
remark was heard on all sides last
evening and expressions of surprise
and regret were numerous among
his many friends. He died yester-
day morning in a Cincinnati hospi-
tai, having been admitted to the in
stitution on April 10th to be treated
for amoebaecoli, a micro organism
disease within the intestines and af-
fecting the liver, but further says
that primarily he was suffering with
dysentery. The disease prevails to
all alarming extent in this country.
1t has been successfully treated in
this country.
Deceased was the eldest son Of
John A. Barton. He was born in
this city March 22d, 1868. He
was educated in the city schools,
and for many years was employed
as clerk in the store of A. Pardee
& Co.
About fifteen years ago in COM
pany with Morris Dryfoos, he de-
parted for Meeker, Col, where he
was on a cattle ranch. He remain
ed there for several years, when he
located at Salmon City, Idaho.
When the Spanish-American war
broke out he enlisted becoming a
member of Schupp's Rough Riders,
but never reached any further than
San Francisco, where the Company
was stationed until discharged.
Later he went to Cuba where he
saw service.
Besides his father and mother, he
is survived by four sisters and four
brothers, viz Mrs. P. c. Kauff-
man, Tacoma, Washington, Mrs.
H. o. Vaudeville, Misses Mabel
and Ruth, and Messrs. Howard,
Clifford, Walter and Stanley.
Frank Barton had thousands oi
friends in Lehigh region and his
death will be sincerely mourned by
all his acquaintances. His brother
Clifford went to Cincinnati to ar
range for the bringing of the body

Bryan and Mckinley.

The Hon. John J. ingalls, has
figured out most convincingly to
himself how President Mckinley
cannot fail of reelection and in the
course of his figuring says the
president is the embodiment of Re-
publican ideas and policies. AS a
good many of these ideas and poll
cies are promulgated through the
president by Mark Hanna it is not
surprising that Mr.. ingalls, asser-
tion should be true.
But what is there in them to at
tract any bat the most hide-bound
partisan :? Can the laboring man
who is perhaps wavering between
Mckinley and Bryan be tempted to
the Republican column by the an
nouncement that that party favors
the trusts? Can the business man
or the farmer or any other man who
is struggling under the war tax be
lured to vote for Mckinley by the
knowledge that such a vote will
help to perpetuate the imperialistic
policy which makes the war tax a
necessity?
These very ideas and policies are
what will defeat Mckinley. Could
the people be induced to believe
that he would break the bonds
which fasten him to the chariot of
the trusts his prospects would be
enhanced considerably. Were it
recognized that the election of Nc
Kinley meant the removal of the
war tax, the revenues from which
promise soon to flood the treasury,

Town Election.

On Monday last our town had
it's first municipal election.
There was but little excitement,
yet considerable interest was
taken in the result, and three
hundred and eighteen ballots
were deposited in the ballot box.
Three tickets we're i'll the field.
The Citizen s ticket represented
the original Town Council in
cluding its appointees; that is
the Marshal, Town Clerk and
Supervisor of Streets. The
Peoples S ticket was composed of
good men, mostly employees of
the railroad. Many of them
would have received more votes
than they did, had they not an
nounced publicly they would not
serve if elected. To attend a
meeting of the council would
involve the loss of trip, which
means ten or fifteen dollars out
of their pocket, while their sal
ary as councilmen consists of
empty honor. The third ticket
only had two names on it, one
for Marshal and one for Clerk.
The result as shown by the
ballots, was as follows:

Mark Twain, Amos Cummings,

Franklin in his days made it his
boast that he was a printer.
