The hiring of the La Toilette specia
train was violation of the law pure
and slmple-a law framed and put in
force by the violatOrs themselves. It
would require a volume of books to
to contain the abuse heaped upon ex-
Governor Scofield for shipping his .Jer-
sey cow on frank, a courtesy on the
part OF the express company for which
there was no statutory law prohibiting.
Apparently, it makes a great difference
to the alleged reformer whose OK is
gored. Consistency thou art a Jewel. :"

Governor La Toilette precipitated
the present fight with the straight Re-
publicans, and hopes to win by the aid
of the populistic part of the Democrat
lc party in the caucusses. That is the
straight truth of the matter, and it
behooves every true Republican not
only go to the caucus, but also to chal-
lenge every Democrat who goes there
and offers to VOTE Milton junction
Telephone.
Setting aside all personal likes and
dlsl1kes, the main question for the next
Republican state convention to decide
is, whether it is for the best interest of
the party to renominate r. M. La Fol
lette or to take up some new man who
has not been personally interested in
the light that started last winter
Cambria News.
1t will be violation of precedent for
Gov. La Folleste to conduct a speaking
campaign for denomination, and can
only be excused on the ground that he
Is one OF those people who cannot
afford to let their acts speak for them.

The subsidized press, that is being
so freely discussed by the administra-
ton organs, is a myth. Of the $50 odd
Republican papers in the state, large
majority are supporting Republicanism
as matter of principle. To say that
these publishers are being paid by the
Republican League, is a libel, SO trans

statement.
InY TELEGRAPH TO TIE TRIBUSE.l

Washington Dec Efforts on the part of
the friends of Brigadier General Jacob H Smith
TO restore to duty the general whose acts IN tiie
Philnnines caused his enforced retirement. are
gradually crystallizing into an attempt to nave
president Roosevelt appoint General Smith to
the next vacancy on the list of brigadier gen
erals More ardent champions even go so iar ds
10 urge that he be selected for the first vacancy
in the list of major generals, with the under
standing that he shall retire Immediately after
having received a vindcation. Pressure of the
strongest sort is being exerted upon the Presl-
dent Ohio is ardent in its efforts in behalf OF
the retired general Senators Hanna ana For
aker are earnestly at work in the matter. Cen
eraI Smiths friends say there is a strong sentl-
ment throughout the Grand Army in favor OF
restoring him to duty. His friends also plead
that in the regular army there is opinion that
General Smith has been punished at least as
hard as he deserved, and that action looking
toward his reinstatement is only just ana proper
The talk of Senator Hanna introducing bill
creating new brigadier generalship for Gen
eral Smith has apparently no foundation 1t Is
pretty well understood that Congress is not
likely to go on record as taking such vigorous
method of expressing disapproval of the CHER
Executive Moreover. such a bill would pre-
cipitate q renewal of discussion upon the whole
Philippine question. The next vacancy IN the
time perhaps until General Miies's retirement
next August The appointment to the next va
cancy in the ranks of the brigadiers would only
need the sanction of the Senate, and General
Smiths supporters regard that solution as an
early probability.
