WAR WITH SPAIN.

-Four years ago we stood on the
brlnk of war without the people know
ing it and without any preparation or.
effort at preparing for the impending
peril Ibid all that in honor could be
done to avert the war, but without
avail. 1t became inevitable. and the
Congress at it's first regular session,
without party provision, provided
money in anticipation of the crisis and
in preparation to meet it. 1t came.
The result was signally favorable to
American arms and in the highest de-
gree honorable to the government. It
imposed upon us obligations from
which we cannot escape and from
which it would be dishonorable to seek
the world and it is my fervent prayer
that if differences arise between us and
other powers they may be settled by
peaceful arbitration and that hereaf-
ter we may be spared the horrors OF
war.
Entrusted by the people for the sec
ond time with the Office of President,
enter upon it's administration appre-
ciating the great responsibilities which
attach to this renewed honor and com
mission, promising unreserved devo-
tion on my part to their faithful dis
charge and everently invoking for my
guidance the direction and favor of AL
mighty God. / should shrink from the
duties this day assumed if | did not

patriotic men of all parties. 1t en-
courages me for the great task which
now undertake. to believe that those
who voluntarily committed to me the
trust imposed upon the Chief Execu-
tive of the Republic will give to me
energitic support in my duties. to pre-
serve, protect and defend the Constitu-
tion of the United States" and ito car
that the laws be faithfully executed" +"
The National purpose is indicated
through National election. 1t is the
constitutional method of ascertaining
the public will. When once it is reg
istered it is law to us all and faith
full observance should follow its decree.
Strong hearts and helpful hands
are. needed, and fortunately we have
them in every part of our beloved
country. We are reunited. Sectional
ism has disappeared. Division on pub
lie questions can no longer be traced
by the war maps of 1861. These old
differences less and less disturb the
judgment. Existing problems demand
the thought and quicken the con-
science of the country and the respon-
sibility for their presence as we'll as for
their righteous settlement rests upon
us all-no more upon me than upon
you.

The old law regulating the scale Of

minor laws which together make up
the 33 mentioned.
SCHOOL SYSTEM DEVELOPED.
Perhaps the most important of all
Of the laws passed by the legislature
affecting agricultural people, is that
which provides for the "centralizing
Of the public schools" in the town.
ships, and for the erection of high
schools in the country districts. No
state has now more advanced legisla-
tion, in this direction than ours and
this is due to the action Of the legis-
lature of 1901.
No law passed by any legislature
since the enactment OF the consolida-
ton act Of 1854 is more valuable to
country people than this. Agricultural
people, under the provisions Of the
latter law can give an education at
home to their children equal to that
now given in the best town or city
schools. This one act, in the interests
Of agriculture, is worth all that the
cost to the people Of the state.
Whoever else may see fit to criticise
the late legislature, agricultural peo-
pie can have no cause to do other than
praise it, for it's service to their inter-
ests. The enemies Of the administration
are continually calling attention to
what they regard as bad legislation"
but are careful not to attempt to prove
any OF their allegations, or to give the
legislature credit for the many clearly
beneficial acts which it enacted. Their
partianship is run mad, and has blind
ed their eyes to all excellence in the
Republican party. In their views there
is no good thing or person outside of
Democracy. Populism and fusion.
The farmers will vote to sustain the
national administration by the Repub-
lican party. which has brought such
unparalleled prosperity to the country,
has opened up mills, mines and manu-
factureis, until profitable markets for
all agricultural products are found in
almost every district in our state, and
to uphold the state administration in
its efforts to benefit country people as
exhibited in the salutory legislation it
enacted in their interest during the
session of 1901

HARMONY IN THE WEST
Republicans in Allegheny County
Once More In Accord.
ALL FOR TIE PARTY NOMINEES

SCVeTNOT SlC0e MAKES tne FTiNCIpdt
Address at Remarkable Demon.
stration, In Which All Elements
Participated.
A source of qualification to every
Republican in Pennsylvania must have
been the great Republican demonstra-
ton and mass meeting held in Pitts
burg last Saturday night, when repre-
sentatives of every element among
Republicans in western Pennsylvania
assembled to ratify the action Of the
Republican state convention in placing
in nomination Justice William p. Pot
ter, of Allegheny for justice of the su-
preme court, and Frank G. Harris, Of
Clearfield, for state treasurer.
Finn men and anti-Flinn men, regu
lar Republicans Of years standing and
former insurgent Republicans and
many Democrats, disgusted with their
present party leadership, were present,
and all cheered Justify the sentiments
of the several speakers in advocating
the election of the candidates on the
Republican ticket, and in urging the
polling of the largest Republican vote
ever gotten out at state election.
The significance of this gathering
cannot be over-estimated.
This meeting means the opening Of
an aggressive campaign in the western
counties, and it was a keen disappoint-
ment to the insurgent Republicans,
who have been seeking to organize the
Union party, with the idea of combin.
ing with the Democrats to defeat the
nominees of the Republican organiza-
tion whenever such course will be to
the advantage of those who are in
the minority in the Republican party
and cannot get the offices they seek.
Governor William A. Stone was the
principal speaker at the Pittsburg
meeting, and he was very cordially re-
ceived. He covered the several issues
of the canvass in thoughtful speech,
and after dissecting the Democratic
state platform, he told of what the Re.
publican party had done and in what
respect the people are indebted to its
| leadership.
THE ISSUES REVIEWED.
Among other things he said:
"The last legislature, like every
other legislative body. must be Judged
! by it's work, not by the bills it did not
pass, nor by the short comings Of It's
individual members, but by the bills
that did mass The first great crime
which this wicked legislature com,
mitted, in the opinion Of the Demo
cratic convention. was the reelection
of Senator Quay. If this was crime,
It was a crime in which the people of
Pennsylvania Jointly participated. II
was but the ratification Of an issue
that was settled by the people at the
previous November election. It settled

STRONG CAPITAL COMMISSION.
I'VE appropriated four millions Of
dollars to build new capitol building
Who is there in this state who does
not wish to see at Harrisburg a cap
itol building that will be q credit to
the state? Now let me tell you some
thing. The four men who have been
appointed commissioners to complete
the capitol building are honest and
capable men. That capitol will be
completed within the time named in
the law and for the money named in
the law. Not dollar more will be ex.
pended and not days more time Will
be asked The yellow journals could
not assail the personal character Of
the commissioners because these men
are known throughout the state. They
were greatly disappointed. They had
cartooned the capitol building as a
plum tree and said was saving it for
the gang and would shake 1t for
their benefit, and when they found
that had done just what always in
tended to do and had appointed an
honest commission they were disap'
pointed.
INSTITUTIONS PROVIDED FOR.
"Were the insane asylums and hos
pitfalls crippled by the reduction Of ap-
preparations? Let me tell you that each
after the reductions are made than
they have received before. Why was
able to take off $2,0OO,OO0 and still
leave them more than they got before?
The decision of the supreme court that
the governor had the right to reduce
an item in an appropriation bill left
no doubt about the power to do 1t and
the senators and members knew that
would do it if the appropriations eX-
ceeded the estimated revenue, and so
much larger appropriations got
through than otherwise would have
gotten through. l do not blame the
senators and members. They knew that
l would have to take the responsible
ity anyway and so they thought that
while l was about it | might rs well
take part of their responsibility as
well as my own. They knew, too, that
] did not care much about newspaper
criticism.
81 will not take up your time referr-
ing to any other particular laws. There
are many other just laws, complicated
laws relating to commercial paper, me-
chanics' liens and insolvent estates are
codified and made simple. Every man
ought to read the laws passed by the
legislature of 1901. You have often seen
a book entitled Every man his own
lawyer The laws of 1901 come nearer
to it than any book that was ever pub
lished."
