publican congressman and they are
hard set against any deals with the
Democrats on legislative tickets.
Fusion does not seem TO be popular

the State League and all insisted that
Republicans must stand by the
straight party ticket II they wish to
see the party successful in the future.
PENNSYLVANIA WILL BENEFIT.
Pennsylvanians are naturally inter-
ested in the statement from Washing
ton that the exports of the year 1900
are likely to reach $40 1000 900 in value,
against 100000 in 1896, and s6.00O-
900 in 1890. The figures of the treas
ury bureau of statistics show that the
exports of coal from the United States
during the seven months ending with
July, 1900, are so per cent in excess
of those during the corresponding
months of last year, and double those
of the corresponding months Of 1898.
In the seven months ending with
July, 1898, the exports of coal from the
United States were 2,S75,45 tons; in
the same months of 1899 they were g.
,0S2 tons, and in the corresponding
months of 1900 they were 4,601,755
tons. During the period from 1890 to
1900 the expectation of coal from the
United States has Quadrupled, but the
principal growth has been in the years
1898, 1899 and 1900.
While this growth is observable in
the exports to all parts Of the world,
it is especially marked with reference
to our exports to the American coun-
tries. To British North America the
exports in the seven months of 1898
were 1,7SS,S9S tons and in the seven
months of 1900 S,253, 1903 tons. To Mex
leo the exports in the seven months
of 1898 were 24S,9SS tons, and in the
corresponding months of 1900, 415,SS4
tons To Cuba the exports have more
than doubled, being in the seven
months of 1898 ia, ,655 tons, and in the
seven months of 1900 241,712 tons;
while to Porto Rico the exports in
creased from 1921 tons in the seven
months of 1898 to 1913 tons in seven
months of 1900. To the Hawaiian ISL
ands the exports of the seven months
of 1899 were l0,SS1 tons, and in the
months of 1900 Fl ,001
tons, thus more than doubling in
single year. To the Philippine Islands
the exports in the seven monthhs Of
1898 were 4,S10 tons, and in the seven
months of 1900 Al, l,06S tons, or eight |
times as much in 1900 as in 1898.
The experiments with American coal |
which the Europeans have made within
the last two or three years seem to
have proved successful, as the exports
to Europe, which in the seven months
Of 1898 amounted to only 4,507 tons,
were in the corresponding months Of |
1900 27S,572 tons. or this 1S7 tons |
went to the United Kingdom, 4,O2S |
tons to Germany, 77,4O7 tons to France
md 196,950 to other European coun-
.ries.

Philadelphia, Sept. 1S.-Philadelphia
Republicans, at the primary elections
last week, administered a crushing
blow to the insurgent element in the
party in Pennsylvania. The more the
figures given in the official returns are
studied the greater will be the signifi-
canoe of the victory of the stalwarts.
1t was clean cut fight between the
regulars and the insurgents, and the
Issue was squarely made upon the NOM
ination of candidates for the legisla-
ture. The city fight was won by the
regulars without a contest, as the fol-
lowers of David Martin, before the
voting began, gave up their struggle to
have Martins friend, Horatio B. Hack
ett renominated for register of wills.
Had Martin kept Hackett in the fight
he would not have gotten more than
three out of the Al wards, and this
would have been a most humiliating
spectacle for Martin, who, under the
last city administration, had absolute
control of the party organization.
]. Hampton Moore, president Of the
State League of Republican Clubs, was
nominated unanimously for city treas
urer, and Jacob Singer, an able young
attorney and a stalwart Republican,
was named for register of wills. They
are a strong combination and will
make a winning canvass.
MARTINS DESPERATE FIGHT.
But the most interest was taken in
the contests for the nomination of can
didates for the general assembly. David

mined struggle to hold his own in the
delegation to Harrisburg Frequent
conferences were held during the can
vass with William Finn, of Pittsburg,
and other allies of Martin in the insur-
gent movement in the state.
The followers of David Martin in
Philadelphia and of William Finn in
Allegheny comprised a large majority
of the insurgents, who. by their alli-
ance with the Guffey Democrats, made
a deadlock in the last session of the
legislature, and prevented the election
of the Republican caucus nominee fol

aid of the immense patronage and the
contractors, managed to hold his own in

BATTLE OF BALLOTS.

All day long Tuesday men were
coming and going asserting theii
suffrage rights. Democracy had
high expectations that their Ma
tional leader would be swept into
the White House, that the trusts,
Imperialism, Militarism, Monopo
lies, extravaganza would have d
brake against them, but again the
great common people, those who
bear the heat and burden, who pay
the taxes, who fight our battles.
who man our war vessels, who are
our mechanics, our lsborers, our
farmers, are doomed to dlsappoint-
ment, and another four years must
be the slaves of the few. Ia this
struggle Democracy has been de
feated to rally and again enter the
field reinforced and better equlpp-
ed. Defeated but not whipped.
Why We have been swept of our
feet the -'Ltell-you-so's" may give
it out. Money, organization, de
ception, aud temporary prosperity
PLAYED this part. Mckinley goes
to the White House again, trusts
will be fostered as before and the
masses will continue as subjects.
1t may be best that Mckinley was
again elected, for four years longer
ia power the people will the better
the plans of the party.
The party platform opposes trusts,
the psrty's greatest leader says
there are no trusts. A conflict Of
party. but we shall see, and if the
peoples interests continue subject
to the few then the people will rise
10 their might and shake off the
shackles that bind them.

Phievery.

Monday, during the day some
one stole from the vault of the
County Clerks Office, the Jeffer-
sonville ballot book. This was dis
covered early in the evening and
after dilligent search the ADVOCATE
PUB. Co. went to work and repro
duced it, Tuesday morning about
the hour to begin voting it was
discovered that the Smithville bal
lot book had been taken also. and
by $3.50 another book had been
supplied, and the entire vote of
these precincts was cast.
How the stealing was done is a
mystery. County Clerk O'Connell
is of the opinion that some one
went into the vault and walked out
with the Jacksonville ballot-book
unsupported and the other must
have been taken out at side win
dow during the night or Tuesday
morning, the iron bars OF which
had been sprung so as to admit the
entrance of mans body.
1t is the duty of all citizens,
Democrats and Republicans, to bring
to justice the person or persons who
engaged in this thievery.

BALLOT BOOKS STOLEN.

On the day and night before the
election. two ballot books were
taken from the vault in the County
Court Clerks office. The first
discovery was made about eight
o'clock Monday evening and Il e
second Tuesday morning about
six o'clock. Ii was by order OF
County Court Clerk that the An
vocATE force, worn out from night
and day work, was called together
and by 5:25 o'clock Tuesday
morning Mr.. O'Connell and E.
nest Mynheir, with the book and
supplies, were en- route and got 10
Jacksonville in time for the open
ing of the polls.
While Mr.. O'Connell was gone,
Deputy Clerk, Joe Kemper, went
to the office vault to get the
Smithville book to deliver it and
found that it had been stolen. At
once Mr.. Kemper called Judge
Hazelrigg and they hurried to the
residence Of the editor Of the An
voCATE, who had been in bed just
IS minutes, awoke him, and Judge
Hazelrigg and Mr. Kemper direct
ed that the force be called and an
other ballot book be reproduced
to be delivered by the order Of

and all the voters in each precinct
voted.

The most miserable and ire.
sponsible recreants the Democratic
party has to deal with are such Re
publicans as will give out state
ments they know to be false. These
parties of to day talk of "whittling
and stealing" and make unjust accu
sations against the Democratic
party, when a true definition of the
Republican party to the children OF
to-day should be political organi-
zation of men whose chief end is
coercion, trickery, the employing OF
any unfair means by which power
may be obtained, and in order to
be eligible every enlisted man,
must be void of conscience. A
view of the 9th district justifies the
conclusion that the INSCRIPTIONS
of the old Democratic party are
conspicuous allies with those of the
same stuff in the Republican party,
and as it is in Louisville, so it is
elsewhere. Who is it that whites,
