SMART & SILBERBERG, il,
OIL CITY, PA.


City Solicitor John l.. Kihsey, is pro-
posed for denomination. He is a stall
wart Republican, but some have
argued that he should make way for
one of the young men who have been
active recently on the stump. Nothing
has as yet been determined upon re-
garding this office, but should the Re-
publicans renominate Mr.. Kinsey,
which now seems probable, the Union
party men would be without a candi-
date about whom they could rally, and
they would have to trail along for the
Republican nominee, or support the
Democrat. Kinsey is strong with the
conservative element in the communi-
ty, and his denomination would thor
oughly disarm the Unionist.
NEWSPAPERS LACK INFLUENCE.
There have been several conferences
here recently of the state leaders Of
the Union party. They have come to
realize that what they regarded as
their strongest cards, the insurgent
newspapers of this city, are without
influence with the voters. No political
campaign was ever waged in the state
in which there were more Philadel-
phia newspapers combined in an ag-
gressive and persistent campaign
against the Republican organization
and its nominees.
These newspapers. day after day,
kept up incessant assaults upon the
Republican party and its candidates,
but when the polls were opened their
readers showed by their ballots how
little confidence they had in the sin
cerity of such newspapers.
This fact has impressed itself upon
the minds of the Democrats as well
as the insurgents, and they are won
dering whether they would not fare
better hereafter by standing up for
straight Democracy and letting the I'm
ionists support the Democratic candi-
dates if they will
GUFFEY is STILL SILENT.
Colonel Guffey has not yet been able
TO explain what became of the Demo
cratic vote in Allegheny county, where
he lives. He devoted much of his time
during the campaign to looking after
the Democratic organization in Phila-
delphia, but when election day rolled
around thousands of Democrats in AL
legheny county were not qualified by
the payment of poll tax. 1t has de-
veloped that Guffey has practically no
Democratic organization in his home
county When the Democratic state
convention shall meet next year it is
likely that Guffey will have some prac-
tical questions put to him by Demo-
Gratis from Philadelphia and other
counties where he had interfered
against the regular Democratic organi-
zation in the interest Of the Union
party.

Special Correspondence
Philadelphia, Dec. S.-Since the re.
cent defeat at the polls the Union
party men and the Democrats have
been unable to get together upon any
scheme for fusion in future campaigns
The Democrats are so completely di-
yided into factions of one kind or an
other, that the Union party leaders do
not know with whom to deal.
The Pattison contingent are now al
odds with the Gordon outfit and the
Donnelly and Ryan combination, that
maintains control of the regular Or
ganization, refuses to have anything to
do with either the Pattison or the Cor
don elements and seem determined to
go it alone until the Democratic state
convention shall be held next year.
DEMOCRATS ARE DIVIDED.
It is possible that there will be at
least two contesting delegations of
Democrats from this city, and may be
there will be three.
Guffey is anxious for harmony, but
he does not know where to begin. II
he makes terms with Pattison he will
offend the Gordonites and the old or
ganization element. Pattison has
made so many enemies through his re-
cent uncertain actions, trying to play
both sides and losing at the game. that
Guffey is afraid to have anything to do
with him
The Gordon faction mean practically
the Union party element Of the Democ-
racy. and have nothing in common
with the straight-out Democracy.
Meanwhile, with the Democrats at
skies and sevens. the insurgent Re
publicans do not know where to turn.
They find that the Republicans
everywhere who participated in the
late unsuccessful fusion movement are
eager to return to the old party and
are ready to take their places with
the rank and file and show their 10y
atty by hard ana steady WORK Tor the
welfare of Republicanism.
UNION PARTY'S WEAKNESS.
In this city the Union party has
made no sign of getting into shape for
the spring campaign, outside Of a few
wards in which the old David Martin
element retains some strength.
There are a few Offices which the
Martin men still control, and the en-
ployes Of these Offices are endeayoring
to keep up a Union party organization
for their own purposes.
The Republican leaders have been
urged to put up one of their followers
for the office Of city solicitor, the only
important Office to be filled at the
February election The incumbent,

during the reign of the present en-
peror. and it 1t is his intention to
keep them young by passing a law
retiring admirals at Sc and captains
at 80. This would be a great thing
for the American navy also,
If it could be adopted because our
officers seldom attain the command
of ship until they are so years old
and thus pass the best part of their
lives in subordinate positions. The
German emperor believes in young
men, and Is determined that they
shall have chance. AT the age of
so. therefore. officers of the German
navy retire from active service and
go on a reserve list, subject to call
in time of war in case their services
should be needed.
Germany has also shown far great
er foresight than either England or
the United States in the matter Of
training officers and men. Her
schools are filled with tine brightest
of the coming generation being edu-
Gated in navigation and gunnery, and
Unsteady of limiting the graduates,
as we do at Annapolis, to fifty or six
ty year, she is turning out annual
ly 400 or 500 young sailors compe-
tent to command ships at sea. Those
who cannot get births upon men OF
war are given practical experience
in the merchant marine upon the
fleet of the North German Lloyd aud
Hamburg-American Steamship com
panjes. anG many are employee as
foremen, engineers, constructors and
in other capacities in the shipyards
of the empire. In the same manner
are being trained thousands of sail
ors, so that as fast as new ships are
put into commission there are plenty
of trained officers and sailors to man
them. The German navy is much
stronger on paper than in actual SER
vice, but every one must acknowledge
that it is a wise policy for a govern
ment to educate more men than 1t
reeds.
Another peculiarly of the Ger.
mans, which also must he command
ed, is an interchange of service be-
tween the officers of the army and
navy. Every year a certain number
of military officers are detailed for a
term of service in the navy, where
they learn how to handle ships and
naval ordnance, and a great deal of
other knowledge that is likely to
prove useful to them in time of war
On the other hand, an equal number
of officers OF the navy are detailed
for service in the army. generally in
the staff corps, in order that they
may learn to understand and appre-
ciate the strong and the weak points
of the military service and acquire
information that will be of value in
case joint operations should ever be
necessary.

His First Thanksgiving
Proclamation.

WASHINGTON. Nov. 1.-The pres

fixing Thursda November 2S. as II
national thanksgiving In part the
proclamation says:
This Thanksgiving finds the peo-
pie still bowed with sorrow for the
death of great and good president.
We mourn Mckinley because we low
ed and honored him, and the manner
OF his death should awaken in the
breasts of the people keen anxiety
for our country, and at the same time
IA resolute purpose not to be driven
, by any calamity from the path OF
strong, orderly and popular liberty
which. as a nation, we have thus far
safely trod Yet. in spite of the
great disaster, it is nevertheless true
that no people on earth have such
abundant cause for thanksgiving as
We have. The past year in particu-
lar has been one of peace and plenty.
We have prospered in things material
and have been able to work for our
own uplifting in things intellectual
and spiritual. Let us remember
that. as much as has been given, as
much will be expected from us, and
that true homage comes from the
heart as well as the lips and shows
itself in deeds. We can best prove
the way in which we live on earth,
and by the manner in which each of
us does his duty to his fellow man"
