Burned to Death.

Charles F. Croft a retired farmer,
seventy years of age, who has been liv-
ing alone in a two-story frame house in
Woodstown, was found burned to a
crishjn his kitchen last Friday morn
ing
About 2.30 O'Clock a. NJ. a neighbor
of Gfpff was aroused by fire in his frame
residence. The house was saved, though
the back part was burned out. In this
back sled was found the body of Croft.
At first it was supposed that the death
of Croft was a case of foul play. He
was paid 1926 in gold on Friday by
Theodore Taylor. Later, however, the
money was found in the house, and it is
believed that the fire was caused by the
explosion of a lamp.
Coroner George w. Fitch held an in
quest last Monday. with Prosecutor j.
f. Sinnicks0n present.
1t Is agreed that if murder had been
committed the case would be one al
most impossible to prove against q de-
PENDANT. The C0rOner's jury, which
was composed of William b. Foster, G.
French Moore, Newton Ferguson, JOS
eph Stretch, Shipley Flitcraft and Will
liam Weatherby, evidently took this
view of the case, for alter being out a
short time they returned a verdict Of
death by s~uffocation."

The Military Issue.

People who deny that militarism is
an issue in this campaign should read
the military papers. The Army and
Navy Journal, which reflects the views
of the War Department, has this to say
of the army work to be done at the
next session of Congress:
1.-THE most important part of the
coming army legislation will be that
which deals with the increase in the
regular service. With this the War
Department will have to operate very
carefully, as the greatest opposition
will be forced upon this section. By
the time the military bill comes before
Congress the people wiU haze decided By
a popular vote whether under the eristing
condition 1t has become necessary or not
to haze a larger standing crmy to up
hold the honor Of the country and The de.
clared policy Of the present Administra-
ton. 1t is conceded by even
the most optimistic that Congress will
not accede to an army of greater size
than $4,000 men; hence for an army of
this strength the War Department wsll
undoubtedly ask"
Here is the issue plainly stated. If
we decide to carry out ''the declared
policy of the present Administrations"
we shall have to increase the regular
army to rs, 900 men. This will not be
a temporary provision to meet al emer-
gency, bat a permanent enlargement
Of our standing forces to three times
their former size. If we vote against
the Administration this increase will
not be necessary. That is the alterna-
tive, presented with soldier]y frankness.
It is for the voters to decide whether a
policy that necessitates a permanent
standing army Of :, 1000 men is to their
liking.-N. Y. journal.
The Penn's Grove record., 1900-10-05
Has Repented.

The journalistic sensation of October
LIST. was the announcement that the
Philadelphia Times, for the last thirty
years edited by Col. A. K. Mcclure,
would hereafter be a straight Demo-
cratic paper and support Bryan and
Stevenson. The Times has been on the
decline for some years past, because
there were too many papers of the same
political principles. Last JDne it
changed owners who sent a representa-
tive amongst the news dealers and
learned that there was needed a daily
paper of Democratic principles. It was
rumored then that the Times would
most likely support the Democratic
ticket. In the announcement last
Monday it said:
1.-THE Times has been unfailingly hos
tile to those measures with which VIII.
liam Mckinley particularly was identi-
fed, such az the monopoly. breeding,
defcit-prOducing tariff that bore his
name. Yet four years ago, in the sud.
den crisis that divided the councils of
the Democratic party and for the time
being seemed to have checked its great
career, it seemed better to the Times,
as to many other leading Democratic
papers, to sustain MI. McKinley's cleo
ti0n as President rather than that OF
Nj. Bryan. The decision was made in
good faith. The result has shown it to
have been wrong. 1t is repented and
recanted.
1.-THE Times shall help to rally the
Pennsylvania Democracy once more to
q hopeful battle for the Constitution
and laws and the rights Of men In the
campaign for for Bryan and Stevenson.
The Penn's Grove record., 1900-10-05

Although it is only little more than
a month to election day. the politicians
have not succeeded in working up any
thing like the usual excitement at this
stage of the campaign. They claim
everything, but are really up In the air,
SO to speak, themselves as to what the
result will be, SO far as being able to
produce any tangible foundation for
their claims, and they fear that il the
people are too busy to do the ordinary
campaign shouting, they may also be
too busy to vote. From the best OBJ
tainable evidence, sifted without pre-
judice. it seems almost certain that
control of the House will 60 with the
Presidency-if MI. Mckinley is reflect.
ed, his party will elect a majority of
the House, and if Mr.. Bryan is elected,
his party will have the House. The
uncertainty about the Presidency is
largely owing to the belief that the
vote Is going to be much smaller than
1t was In 1896, when the whole country
was worked up to fever heat.

HIS OPINION OF DEMOCRATS.
In Gov. Roosevelt's speech at st.
Paul. MiRn.. in speaking Of the Demo.
Gratis who supported the Kansas City
platform he said.
"They stand for lawlessness and dis.
order, for dishonesty and dishonor, for
license and disaster ut home and cow
ardly shrinking from duty abroad"
Mr.. Roosevelt, who is one Of the blue.
blood New Workers and college edncat-
ed, may be considered wise in his own
c0nceit, and descends TO the bowery
tough when he considers the conscien-
tious Prohibitionist no better than the
saloon keeper; the quiet, peace loving
Quaker no better than a duellist; a dis
sipated cowboy as good a soldier as
three other volunteers and a better
companion than a quiet, sober, virtu.
Gus farmer; a negro soldier a coward
and a ''smoked yankee; Mr.. Bryan,
the most famous aud individually the
most influential American. Of small
ability; q farmer who believes in free
silver a repudiator; and all Democrats
as lawless, dishonest and towards. He
insults more than half the American
people whom he seeks to make him
Vice President.
Hon. Charles A. T0wne, in answer
ing his st. Paul's harangue, skins
ssTeddy the Terror in the following
neat manner:
1.-THE speech is, with rare exception, an alter
nation OF evasion and assertion. In spirit it is
= compound Of scold and scullion. AS to its
facts, it abounds in inaccuracies which, if &C.
cidental, are inexplicable as coming from a
AA~A va A&S y OACuAbopAy " Il AAAo-
tory and biography. But the world is accus-
toned to inconsistencies from Mr.. Roosevelt.
It has long looked upon him as a predestined
and incorrigible eccentric. 1t has given up at.
tempting to explain him or to reconcile him
with himself. 1t is quite impossible, whether it
would be worth while otherwise or not, to make
an entirely satisfactory diagn osis of a civil SER
vice reformer in partnership with Thomas G.
Platt; a citizen soldier who ridicules the volun-
teers a leader in battle who finds glory in. be-
ing rescued from an ambush a hero who boasts
OF shooting a fleeing foe in the back; a candi-
date who plays and poses to delegates and gal
leries to obtain a nomination that he does not
want; a gentleman who charges six nj q half
millions of his fellow countrymen with lawless-
ness, dishonesty and cowardice: a statesman
who, mounted on a hobby, rides roughly at
grave questions in economics and politics
swinging his partisan lariat and yelling like an
intellectual C~ommanche."

This Presidential campaign is the
first in which the photograph has been
put to practical use in making stump
speeches. In Kansas the P0pulists
have a machine of immense size. When
set to work on a street corner or other
public place it al be heard for a square
or more, on a quiet day. William j.
Bryan and Webster Davis seem to be
the favorites with this machine, al
though the speeches Of other promin-
emit speakers have been prepared for re-
production. The Populist State Com
