ROOSEVELT INDoRsED.
Policies OF the Administrsalon Az
proved By . Majority of Amer.
lean Voters.

The more carefully the returns Of
the late election are analysed the
more significant appears the result
This Is particularly true of the con-
gressional battle, which was fought
ON national issues. In every state tho
voters for congressman went to the
polls with Roosevelt's policy and I'D
ministration in mind, says the Chicago
Inter Ocean.
~ Nineteen western and northwestern
states which in 1900 elected 101 re-
publican congressman, elected lis this
year. In 1900 Colorado sent two sill
yer men to congress. This year IL
sends two republicans and one demo-
crat. Idaho and Montana each was
represented in the Fifty-seyenth con-
gress by silver or independent con-
gresham. In the Fifty-eighth con-
gress each state will be represented
by republican.
Nebraska elected in 1900 two repub-
lican and four fusion congressman
In 1902 the congressional delegation
stands five republicans and one demo-
crat. Illinois in 1900 elected IL repub-
lican and II democratic congressman.
This year the delegates stand II re-
publicans and eight democrats. In
every state except California there
was a straight issue between repub-
licans and democrats, and there Is .
gain in the 10 states of IA congressman
for the republicans.
In Nebraska there was an issue be-
tween republicanism and Organism.
The republicans gained three con-
gressmen. In Utah the struggle was
for the control of the legislature, No
man in the senate was more conspicu-
Gus for Islander of our soldiers and for
opposition to the Philippine policy Of
the administration than Senator Raw
Inns.
In expressing his extreme views and
in attacking the administration Mr..
Rawlins claimed to represent the peo-
pie of his state. In answer to this claim
the people of Utah have given the re-
publicans majority in the legislature
of 80 on joint ballot. This means that
n republican is to succeed Mr.. Rawlins
in the senate.
Mr.. Patterson, representing the
democrats of Colorado, made himself
almost as conspicuous as Mr.. Rawlins
in abuse of the soldiers and the gov
eminent. The state which gave Bryan
a plurality of 29,66l in 1900 this year
gives republican plurality on the
state ticket and probably elects re-
publican majority in the legislature.
In the states Of the middle west. in
Guiding Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Michi-
gan, Wisconsin, Minnesota and Iowa,
no ground has been lost, and in several
Of them majorities have been in
creased. What is true Of the great
states of the middle west is also truo
Of Pennsylvania and most Of the New
England states. The republican states
Of 1900 are solid behind Roosevelt in
1902, and they have been reinforced By
Colorado, Idaho and Montana.

WALTERS PA AS a DRIVER.


MY pa lived on farm when he
Was just q little boy like me;
He used to drive the horses there
"Crost railroad tracks and everywhere.
One Sunday pa he said: 1T guess
III get a horse to-day. and les
Go buggy-ridin'. fur away,
And take our lunch, and stay all day."
At first ma didn't like to go.
Because the horse might cut up SO;
But pa said: "Pshaw! They'll be no harm.
Cause once I lived out on farm"
AT last ma she give In. and then
She dressed the baby up, and when
Pa brought the horse and buggy, ma
Said: Now. be careful. won't you, par"
A'Oh. pshaw! Don't be afraid" pa said,
And told the horse to go ahead,
The baby was behind with ma.
And set up In front with pa.
The horse went decent till at last
A notify mobile scootin' fast
Come tearin' down the road as though
1t was wound up and had to go.
The horse stood up and paved the air,
And something seemed to make pas hair
All bristly. and his eyes-oh. gee!
But they looked queer. It seemed to me.
His face got white, and then he said
To me. a whisperin': Were dead!'
But we got by at last, and then
The horse behaved himself again.
When we were home ma said she knew
That pa would know just what to do.
She said she knew they'd be no harm,
Cause pa had lived out on farm.
And pa he held his head up high
And said ''of course" and that was why
He took us out to ride. because
They'd be no danger where he was
i wonder II God loves folks who
Pretend they don't do what they do,
And when you're scared enough to die
And don't let on, Is that a lie?

Paternal Affection.

A capital story is told by popular
bishop well-known ut the East End
for his work among the poor there.
A costermonger was in great trouble.
He had just lost his little son and
the good bishop was seeking to con-
sole him as well as he was able, when
the costermonger suddenly looked up,
and in a broken voice, and with tears
streaming down his checks, said:
"D'ye think I could get the young
beggar stuffed?'-King.

A. Saturday Night.

An enthusiastic meeting of the Scran-
ton Car Foremen's Association WAS
held in r. r. Y NJ. C. A. hall Saturday
evening. President l.. T. Garfield was
in the chair. and a large representation
of the membership was present.
A lengthy discussion was enjoyed
on the best remedies for hot boxes, and
an imaginary case was cited on inter-
change rules, which proved to be very
instructive. Another subject which re-
ceiVed some consideration was RE
celving and Delivering Cars on Nota-
tion Records"
The subject of "Piece Work, Its Ad-
vantages and Disadvantages, Who
Does it INTEREST,"" was to have been
taken up, but owing TO the lateness of
the hour was postponed until the next
meeting, which will be held on the
second Saturday evening in April.
Arrangements We're made for having
the minutes of the meeting printed in

Albert Buchla, whose license as a

court for selling illegally. The jury

All four of the applicants for licenses

ATTORNEY WILSON
BECOMES Chief CLERK
To Be the Right Hand Man of Gen
eral Manager E. E. Loomis, Of
the Lackawanna.

Attorney John r. Wilson, of the Della
ware, Lackawanna and Western coal
department, has been appointed chief
clerk to General Manager f. T.. Loomis,
with headquarters in New York. He
will assume the duties of his new posi-
ton tomorrow, although the appoint
ment became effective a few days ago.
Mr.. Wilson was at one time an out
side foreman at the Avondale mines,
where he obtained much practical eX-
perience. He studied law with Taylor
& Lewis, in this city, and was appointed
attorney for tha coal department in
1885, succeeding the late NJ. |. Corbett.
The position vacated by Mr.. Wilson
in the coal department will, in all
probability, be filed by the appoint
ment of Daniel r. Reese, a wellknown
young attorney, who resides at Ply
mouth.
Mr.. Wilson has earned his promotion
by strict application to duty and by ac-
cumulating an invaluable fund OF in
formation pertaining to the mining in
dustry. The position of chief clerk to
Mr.. Loomis, while he was in this city.
was held by c. T.. Tobey, who has been
appointed assistant superintendent OF
the coal department.
The appointment of Colonel L, A..
Phillips to the general superintendency
of the department. as mentioned On
cluslvely in The Tribune on Saturday,
has met with popular approval, and the
general opinion expressed is that he
will cement the already pleasant rela-
tions which exist between the company
and it's employees

THE POLITICAL SITUATION.
Local District Conventions to Be
Called in April or May.

The election, in Bradford county
Saturday, of delegates to the Republi-
can state convention, which is to be
held IN Harrisburg next June, makes
the ninth county election of delegates
in the present campaign for the guber-
material nomination. The other coun-
ties which have elected are: Berks,
Carbon, Chester, Jefferson, Union,
Snyder, Indiana and susquehanna
All of these delegates are for John p.
llkin.
The next interesting primaries will
be held on Friday in Blair county.
Here the voters will pass directly on
the merits of Mr.. Elkin and Colonel
l.. A. Watres, of this city, Under the
Blair rules, Colonel Watres failed to
register in time TO get his name on the
tallot. but Mr.. 2lkin waived this point
and the names of the two are now on
the ballot. Blair has been somewhat
insurgent in the past, and 1t therefore
affords fair field for testing the cur
rents of public opinion in reference to
The gubernatorial nomination. Politi-
clans throughout the state are await
ing it's verdict with interest
There was talk on Saturday among
local Republicans of prominence of
calling the Lackawanna district con-
ventions about the last of April or first
of May. 1t is argued that this would
be plenty of time for the state con-
vention, and also late enough to make
unnecessary separate conventions later
for the nomination of candidates for
the legislature. The present intention
of the Republican county leaders is 10
nominate delegates and legislative
candidates at the same time, thus saw
ing considerable expense. 1t is the be-
lief of some that by the time indicated
the canvass for the nomination for
governor will have been defined with
sufficient clearness to make unneees-
sary any division of LOCAL opinion on
that point.

head of the department was not only
unsolicited, but wholly unexpected. In
fact, Colonel Phillips did not know that
Mr.. Looms was to be transferred to
New York until the letter containing
handed TO him.
The voters of the Second ward have
once more demonstrated their COM
mon sense by electing Thomas j.
Snowden to succeed himself in the
common council. Public sentiment has
been aroused in this ward ever since
the bribery revelations of year and
more back, ard only men who are
thoroughly representative and whose
reputation for honesty and integrity
place them even beyond suspicion,
have been returned to councils. II. S.
Alworth, Joseph Il. Evans, j. h. Cas-
tcrline and n. j. Snowden, the present
common councilmen from the ward,
comprise a quartette that equals the
representation of any ward.
Not least among these four is Mr..
Snowden, who as a member of the
lumber firm of Mason & Snowden. oc-
cupies a place among the leading bus-
ness men of the city and who, for this
reason, believes in conducting the af-
fairs of the city on a busineSs-like
basis. He has not had much to say as
Vet on the floor of the council but
those who have observed the careful
consideration he gives measures In
committee and who have listened TO
the suggestions he has had to offer.
know that he is a man who will not
stand for anything that looks like n
deal" and who will not hesitate TO
speak his mind if he deems 1t neces-
sary at any time. The councils of this
city need many more representative
citizens, such as Mr. Snowden.
