state has absolutely nothing to do
with 1t. 1t is not a subject for legis.
lation at Harrisburg. as the Mexican
Democrats want to pretend.
THE state gets the bulk of its
revenues from tax on corporations in
various forms. and though 1t is COM
planned that the corporations are not
taxed enough the state revenues have
been so large for many years as to
support the policy, long since adopted,
of returning large amounts to the
counties as means of relieving the
local burdens of taxation. This policy
has been greatly enlarged in the past
dozen years. and with. the present
very certain to be a clamor before
the next legislature for still more lib
erality in that direction. Without
counting what the state has surren.
dered by the remission of taxes on
real estate 1t is paying to the coun-
ties from $l0.OO0,0O0 to $4,000. 600
annually. This Is In the form of re-
turns of three-fourths of the personal
property tax. school appropriations,
the payment of judges salaries and
charities, together with some lesser
items.
Now let us see what kind of
grievance Mexican county has against
the state The auditor general went
to the trouble in 1897 to prepare some
tables showing the amount paid the
state by each county and that return
ed to each county by the state. These
tables show that there was paid into
the state treasury by Mexican county
In that year tis. 1888. There was re-
turned to the county on account OF
personal property tax, judges salary
and schools alone $43.589.93. to say
nothing of appropriations to charities.
By charging the county with its pro.
portion of state expenses and hospi-

ceived bv it amount to $92.445,l4, as
against $19,35S.SS received from the
county. But we have been content
to take the direct payments. which
show that the county received more
than twice what 1t paid.
"The figures for Mexican county
are not exceptional. They are pro.
portionately the same for all the coun.
ties. The money is collected from
corporations and paid over to the
counties to relieve the local burdens
Of taxation. If the farmers and home
owners in any county are taxed too
much let them look into their local
administration and seek relief there.
The state does not impose a penny Of
tax on them"

a,vU than they dld in 1885.

A statistician in one of the depart
ments here in Washington, said to
me the other day:
1.-THE Democratic stump speakers
sneeringly claim that the Republicans
claim every big crop as result Of pro-
lection or Republican legislation, there
by robbing Divine Providence and
Heaven of it's just dues" but the fig
ures show that it is a fact that during
Republican administrations there are
larger crops and better prices than
there are in Democratic times" In
teresting isn't it?
But this is easily explained. The in
telligent farmer, in connection with the
rest of the country, has no faith in
Democratic administration or promises
consequently during Democratic ad-
ministrations less wheat, corn, oats
and other crops are planted. This is
proven by official figures. The farm
value of the corn crops for the four
years of Clevelands first administra-
tion, from 1885 to 1889, aggregated $2,-
569, ,653, $50. In the four years of Harri-
sons administration which followed
the farm value of the corn crop aggre-
gated 81. $50, ,93s, 1888, an increase of more
than $3.50, 100000 during the Cleveland
administration. The same condition was
repeated in the second Cleveland ad-
ministration and the following Nc
Kinley administration. In the Nc
Kinley administration years the farm
value of corn increased $3.50, 900, 900
over that of the preceding Democratic
administration.
WHAT THE ELECTION OF PAT
TISON MEANS:
The farmers of Pennsylvania shared
in this prosperity. Do they propose
to help elect a Democratic governor
this year, and by that action indicate
that they have a weakening faith in
President Roosevelt and Republican
principles? For that is what the cleo
tion of Pattison would mean! That is
the question that heads of departments
and the strangers that visit Washing
ton are asking. Almost every day l
am asked the question, What is Penn
sylvania going to do?"
The Democrats from Pennsylvania
who come down to Washington on busi-
ness boast that they are going to make
their fight on state issues When they
are asked why they do not discuss ma
tional issues, those who are honest re-
ply that it isn't the year for discus
sion of national issues, seeing that their
party has not recovered from Organism
and free silver, and so there is nothing
left to do but take up state issues. AS
a result when am asked what Penn
ply:
why elect Pennypacker of course" "

DEMOCRATIC SCHEME EXPOSED
Trying to Fool the Farmers BY Mis-.
statement Of Facts.

oedtSiHSnk W oSAos
One of the arguments upon which
Democratic stump speakers this fall
will largely depend to capture un-
thinking voters has been disclosed
through some boasting remarks of
Democratic State Chairman Greasy
Its first outcropping was at the meet
ing of the Mexican county Demo
Gratis.
At that meeting the resolutions
adopted made the following declara-
ton:
"The auditor generals report of the
farmers and home owners pay $3.50
in taxes for each $1,000 in value,
while the steam railroads pay but
$2.75, the street railroads but $4.75,
and telegraph and telephone COM
panies but 1920"
every particular. 1t is an attempt of
the Democrats to excuse their own
wretched short comings on the mat
ter of taxation when they were in
power. Republicans will not be de-
ceived by this trick and subterfuge
when they consider the deception, as
exposed by the Philadelphia Press,
which says:
There is no state tax on real es-
tate, as everybody should know by
this time since it was wiped out al
most 40 years ago. There is no state
tax on trades and occupations, or on
horses and cattle or on household fur
niture, all such taxes having been
repealed years ago so far as the state
is concerned. Wherever taxes of this
kind are imposed it is local matter.
The tax on real estate paid by the
farmers and home owners is liked by
the local authorities and raised only
for local purposes. If 1t is burden
some it is the fault of the county.

THE MOVING CAUSE.
How the United States Has Become
the Workshop For All the World.


Speaking of the extraordinary extent
to which the British market is being
supplied with articles manufactured in
the United States, Mr.. Fred Mckenzie
in the London Mail says:
"In the domestic life we have got to
this: The average Londoner rises in the
morning from his New England sheets,
he shaves with American soap and
Yankee safety razor, pulls on his Bos-
ton boots over his socks from North
Carolina, fastens his Connecticut
braces, slips his Waltham or Water
bury watch in his pocket and sits down
to breakfast.
There he eongratulates his wife on
the way her Illinois straight front cor
set sets off her Massachusetts, blouse,
and he tackles his breakfast. He eats
bread made from prairie flour POSSIBLY
doctored at the special establishments
| on the lakes), timed oysters from Bal
timore and little Kansas City bacon,
while his wife plays with slice of
| Chicago OK tongue. The children are
given Quaker oats.
"At the same time he reads his morn
| ing paper printed by American ma
| chimes OH American paper with Amer
| lean ink and possibly edited by smart
| journalist from New York city.
HE rushes out, catches the electric
| tram (New York; to Shepherds Bush,
where he gets in a Yankee elevator to
| take him on to the American fitted
| electric railway to the city.
"At his office of course everything is
| American. He sits on a Nebraskan
| swivel chair before Michigan roll top
desk, writes his letters on Syracuse
| typewriter, signing them with New
York fountain pen and drying them
with a blotter from New England.
"The letter copies are put away In
| files manufactured in Grand Rapids.
'At lunchtime he hastily swallows
some cold roast beef that comes from
the midwest COW and havors it with
Pittsburg pickles, followed by few
Delaware timed peaches, and then
soothes his mind with couple of Vir-
ginia cigarettes.
| ITO follow his course all day would
be wearisome, but when evening comes
he seeks relaxation at the latest Amer
lean musical comedy, drinks a cocktail
or some California wine and finishes
up with couple of little liver pills
made in America"
This list comprises but small frac-
tion of what we make in this country
| for the use and convenience of our
British cousins. The sum total mounts
up to hundreds of millions In value ev-
cry year, and a detailed catalogue of
articles would be "longer than the
moral law" 1t Is not so many years
ago that England prided herself on be-
ing the worlds workshop. That time
has passed. She Is now not even her
own workshop. A very considerable
portion of the manufactured articles
which she uses is made in Ameri-
ca" The worlds workshop has been
moved to this side of the Atlantic.
Protection was the moving cause. Brit
ish producers are beginning to find out
the fact and the cause; hence their
movement away from free trade and
toward protection.

county in the Legislature, who can
j. Mr.. Rogers more honest: Is he
more capable Is he more in sym
pathy with the labOring masses ::
Let the Herald answer.
Hon. +. A. GOdcharles, republican
candidate for congressional long
term, is man who has all the vigor
of youth and the training of a college
graduate and experienced soldier;
he is experienced in public affair;
he has of necessity carefully studied
all the financial interests of the state
and nation, being at the head of a
large ir)n industry; he | os sesses the
pride of character that must make
him appreciate the responsible duties
Of public Office; he has been tried in
these capacities already and in no
way found lacking. Although he
comes from well known family of
high rank there is nothing dudish or
aristocratic in his make up. He is
il party man with no tinical nonsense
in his notions of policies, but he is
the kind who can think for themself.
He is a man who will stand by
President Roosevelt. This he has
assured us and that above all is what
the people want at this crisis. This
il the kind of man intelligent vot-
ers want, and that is the kind they
will get with GOdcharles. Mr.. God
charles will not only mean well, but
this meaning will be emphasized by
action, prompt and needful. That
President Roosevelt has the right
ideas of graphing with the trust
problem is beyond question. He
must have united support in the
lower house to begin action. A big
majority in Congress will be the
surest safe guard to Prosperity. A
debt you owe to yourself and country
is vote for Fred. A. Godcharles.
Remember that.
And now the Herald is down on
the Union Tanning Company. Geo.
W. Biggers is not to be supported
for Commissioner because he has a
blacksmith shop at Muncy Valley
and does work for that company
Pray tell us Mr.. Scouten when and
how the Union Tanning Company
has injured the people of Sullivan

Two Courtships.

Once a young man who lived several
miles from his girl, would go to see her
on Saturday night and take his negro
whose name was Sambo, with him to
drive for him. AS the young man was
in love with Miss Elsie, SO was Sambo
in love with the cook.
One night as Sambo came from the
stable, he saw his master down on his
knees before Miss Elsie and heard him
say;
Miss Elsie, love you, you are SO
sweet, your eyes look like doves eyes,
your Allabaster neck sets my hart ON
fire; you look like flower pot. 4"
Sambo, on seeing and hearing this
went and found the cook and fell down
on his knees before her, and looking up
at her said;
"sallie, love you, you are sweet
your eyes look like dogs eyes, your
yellow blasted neck sets my heart oil
fire; blue pot"
