1T is false that Samuel w. Penny
packer was my 'selfselected" can
didate There were two men in Penn
sylyania who were absolutely hostile to
the suggestion of Judge Pennypacker' &
name; one was Judge Pennypacker
the other was M. S. Quay. For it was
very certain that the broad minded
leaders of the opposition would make a
personal campaign upon the ground
that the great grandfather of Judge
Pennypacker was the half brother of
my grandmother, and the prospect was
not pleasant; and Judge Pennvpacker
himself preferred the bench to the Ex-
ecuiive chair.

to denouuce Legislature as corrupt
upon the newspaper assertion of the
corruption of one or two OF its members
is as equitable as to charge that the
people of Pittsburg are thieves because
a thief has been arrested on your
streets"

Obituary.
While the funeral cortege of Mich
ael Fleming was passing the Orbison
school Tuesday. the teacher and pupils
paid a fitting tribute of respect TO the
dead soldier The stars and stripes was
floating from pole in the school yard,
and while the procession was passing,
teacher and pupils surrounded the flag
and saluted it. This simple act was the
source Of much favorable comment by
the members of the Grand Army and
also by members of the bereaved family.

Mrs. Elizabeth Cady Stanton, the
we'll known woman sufragist, died at
her home in New York. last Saturday.
Old age was given as the cause of death.
She was conscious almost to the last.
About week ago Mrs. Stanton began
to fail rapidly This became more
noticeable and then it was known to
the family that her death was only a
question of days or hours.

The Outlook for Congress.

One month ago there was very pes
simistic feeling among Republican
leaders over the result of the coming
Congressional elections There was a
sentiment that the coal strike would
havs disastrous effect on the voters
Just why this should have been 80. even
If it was, has never been demonstrated,
but it probably arose out CT the fact
that the worst defeat the Republican
party has had III generation followed
the Homestead strike. 1t Is true that
there is no parallel between the two
cases, but since the Homestead strike
had no real relation to politics and since
the defeat that followed was simrly in
sensate. the managers have felt that it
might be repeated.
1t is, however, very different view
that is taken just now. The strike is
over and the fact that the President
: brought about the method of settlement
has undoubtedly helped the party all
over the country.
Mr.. Babcock, who is chairman of the
Republican Congressional Committee,
feels that the situation is so much re-
lieved that he can safely predict con-
siderable Republican majority next
week. The fact must not be forgotten
that in nearly every State there has
been redistribution based on the new
apportionment. The census figures
were generally very favorable to those
States where the Republican majorities
are largest and most constant 1t would
seem that there is great preponderance
of evidence in favor of Republican ma
jorities. and that there is little chance
of defeat
While Mr.. Babcock is strong in his
claims of success. he Is not allowing the
party to suffer from overconfidence. He
has announced time and time again
that the Republicans of the country
cannot expect to win unless they vote.
A month ago there was much apathy,
not only in doubtful districts, but in
those sections were Republicans have
generally been elected without any
trouble. Philadelphia Inquirer.
THE ballot will be of the blanket
form again this year, containing ten
columns.

The Coal Strike.

Lentz & Co. resumed operations last
week. but when the Union miners DIS
covered that fifty of their men were on
the black list" they quit.
The 9TH, 14th and 18th regiments
broke camp and started for home Tues
day; the 10Th received orders to spread
itself over the entire region covered by
the four regiments. Co L will be locat
ed at Shenandoah.
At Washington the anthracite coal
strike commission decided to begin an
investigation of the mines and houses of
the miners. starting on Thursday in the
vicinity of Scranton and covering the
whole field.
John Mitchell, president of the Unit
ed Mine Workers, presented the origi-
nal demand of the miners for an increase
of 30 per cent in wages. similar reduc-
tion of working hours, the payment for
coal mined by weight at a minimum
rate of 60 cents per ton Of 2, 240 pounds.
AID a wage agreement between the ope
rators and miners
George +. Baer, president of the Read
ing company. took exception to Mitch
ellis appearance as a representative of
the mine workers union, but said that
he had no objection tc his presence as a
representative of the strikers in their
individual capacity. The commission
made no attempt to settle the controver
sy,, but it was apparent that the recog-
milton of the miners union will be a
knotty problem for the arbitrators
Orders were received Tuesday to pre-
pare for the regiment voting in the
field on November A.

been removed and the camp guard only
