SHOULD neither Judge Pennypacker
nor Attorney General Elkin have enough
votes to nominate, Mr. Sibley would still
be in a receptive mood, observes the Oil
City Blizzard. And the convention might
go farther and do worse than nominate
the Frank lin man.-Titusville Herald.
Sure it might. The nomination Of Mr..
Sibley would make the whole northwest
happy, and there would be no factional
politics about it, either. Neither would
there be any question as to the outcome
Of the election. Mr.. Sibley would be
thoroughly elected in every respect.

IT is stated upon good authority that the
new owner of the Philadelphia Record
is no other than Thomas b. Wanamaker,
son of John Wanamaker and proprietor
Of the Philadelphia North American. 1t
is further said that conuol ofIhe editorial
policy Of the paper will be entrusted to
ex-Judge James Gay Gordon. This fact
may have an important bearing upon the
Democratic political situation in the State
Gordon is now no friend of Ex-Governor
Pattison, although oncenumbered among
his most ardent followers. His offices are
in the North American building, and he
is generally credited with the authorship
of many Of its leading editorials. Wana-
makers ownership OF the Record is not
yet publicly admitted, nor will it bauntil
after the fall campaign, but there are he
best OF reasons for believing that the
property has passed iuto his hards.-Ti.

SPEAKING OF the nomination of the
Rev. DR.. Swallow by the Prohibitionists
for Governor, the Titusville World says :;
The doctor will probably put up a
"whirlwind" fight in this campaign. At
least there will be plenty of wind in it.
But he is not as popular as he was four
years ego. Since that time he has proven
himself TO be revengful, relentless poll
tician who is capable Of praising an an
archist for shooting down a President Of
the United States. He will fill the state
with "hot air" during his canvass and
the weary people will patiently await the
hour "When the Swallows Homeward
Fly" But his candidacy is not likely to
cut much of a figure so far as the result
Of the campaign is concerned.

up on the parade ground. The presi-
dent was driven to the home of Col.

Three Organizers Have Been Placed
Under Arrest.

Clarksburg, w. Va, June 12.-The
strike situation assumes a more seri-
Gus aspect. Several mines in this
neighborhood are almost suspended.
Two hundred men went out at Enter
prise Tuesday night. Sheriff Elem
ming and a dozen deputies went to the
scene but the strikers were quiet and
started on a march down the river.
Much bitterness is caused by the ar
rest of Joe Bell, Orrin Brown and R.
F. Kearns, at Monongahela.
The men are organizers and are
charged with threatening property.
Judge Jackson, of the United States
court, ordered the marshal to hold
deputies ready at moments notice.
The railroad police force are also in
structed to be within reach at all
times. Many arrests have been made
on the charge of threatening property
and trespassing.
United States Marshal c. D. Eli
oft, with a dozen deputies, arrived
here Wednesday night with an injunc-
ton issued Wednesday by Judge John
]. Jackson, of the United States dis
trict court, at Parkersburg, against
strikers in the FairmOnt- Clarksburg
region. The injunction is very broad
and prohibits interference in any man
ner with the work Of the miners who
have refused to strike.
Monongah, w. Va, June 1.-THE
three days of marching through this
coal region is believed will not avail
the agitators much. They were camp
ed Wednesday night at Willow Tree,
just outside the corporate limits. Or
ders have been given to move to
Shinnstown where they will make
headquarters. AS they approached
the Marion county line Wednesday
morning Sheriff Joliffe and his depu-
ties, through Judge Mason by the Fair
mont Coal Co., issued an injunction
restraining them from again marching
into Marion county. No attention was
paid to the orders and Wednesday
leaders Haggerty, Morgan, Springer.
Noon, Edwards and Pigginni were ar
rested and are now in jail at Fairmont.
About 200 miners are idle here and all
mines are running except three. The
company's plant along the line is be-
ing guarded. More agitators are ex-
pected at headquarters Thursday to
take the place of the ones in Jail.
