20 Year, With Quay, BY His Ex-secretary.

The most re markable newspaper ar
ticle of the year, one in which every
Pennsylva man will be interested, will
take up two pages Of the Sunday North
American Of Sunday, July 3. It's a
study OF Senator Quay, his methods and
his deeds, by Frank Willing Leach, who
for twenty years followed the fortunes
of the dead Senator through good and
evil times, except on two occasions,
when his judgment regarding his duty
to his party led him to oppose his chief.
In his tale of great events Mr.. Leach
has reserved nothing. He has written
his story from the viewpoint of an init
mate friend and sincere admirer of Sen
ator Quay. He has 'seJ down naught
in malice" His admiration for his
chief is shown in every paragraph. He
has. however. told Pennsylvania histo-
ry with the assurance and verify Of a
capable chronicler, who observed from
Drhlnd the scenes the manipulation Of
senator Quay's political chessmen. One
incident after another is cited TO clear
up the cloud of doubt that has surround
ed many political events in PennSyl-
vania.
Mr.. Leach explains how Senator Quay's
system of political rewards and punish
ments turned upside down the plans Of
his lieutenants, how and why the ''in-
surgent" of one year became the ''stal-
wart" favorite of the next, and how
the cherished ambitions Of men were
trodden down with the "reminiscences Of
a iuggernaut, all because eXpediency
and the smooth running of the machine
demanded it, This is told by one who
suffered, but who believed the chief
reasoned not unkindly when fate re-
moved him from the chessboard of pol
ltics.
This article is a chapter of the I'M
written political history in Pennsyl-
vana. 1t will be cited when the polit-
ical mysteries of the past again come
up for solution, and Will stand as au-
thority when discussions arise. No
Pennsylvania should fail to read 1t.
1t will be instructive and useful alike
to the boy and the old man, and to the
woman as well, for there is great
human side to the story.

IT is quite certain that Mr.. Teter
doesn't know where he is "at, so far
as the tax question is concerned.
About a year ago he signed state
ment issued by the agents Of the rail-
roads, the coal companies, the oil
operators and other monopolies, in
which it was said
1--WE believe that an extraordinary
session Of the Legislature for the pur
pose of passing upon or considering the
tax system submitted by the commits
sion would be useless and wholly un-
warranted by existing conditions and
that it would entail needless eXpendi-
ture of from $4,000 to $50 900 of the
public moneys
Mr.. Teter signed that statement,
Last Friday Mr.. Teter sent the fol-
lowing telegram to Governor White:
81 am informed that the tax bills
have been agreed upon by the confer
ence subcommittee. Good faith de-
maDds immediate converting of the
State Legislature in order that tie peo-
pie may have tax reform and party diff
ferences upon this question be elmi-
mated, as we all agreed should be done.
c. +. TETER."
Mr.. Teter's anxiety for tax reform
comes suspiciously late. Indeed only
month ago be wss quoted in the
public press as saying:
"Tax reform is like the free silver
craze. The people at first took up with
it, but now it IS dying out. don't be-
lieve the people will endorse any such
principles"
No gymnastics will avail Mr.. Te-
ter now. He can fool no sensible per-
son by posing as an advocate Of tax
reform. He signed the first anti-tax
reform document that was intended
to mislead the people of the State, and
he cant get around it. His names
written there.
So is Mr.. Dayton's.

who drew revolvers and forced back
the men who pressed around them.
Citizens of the village urged the crowd
not to harm the prisoner, and while the
parleying was going on some one cut
the harness of the horses, removed the
lines and partly demolished the vehi-
Gle. The officers and the negro, in
the meantime, slipped away and
started up the road toward Ernstville.
Just what incidents happened that
led to the escape of the prisoner have
not been explained entirely satisfac-
torily, there being a number of con-
ficting statements. AS near as we
can get at the facts they are as fol-
lows: While the crowd at Big Pool
was clamoring for the prisoner, Con.
stable Rhodes slipped away with him
and started up the road. Sheriff
Billmyer and special deputy Herbert
Rogers followed him soon after. When
the two latter had gone a short dis
lance they sat down to rest, being
much fatigued. Presently they start
ed after Constable Rhodes and the
prisoner, and when they had gone
few hundred yards they found Rhodes
leaning against telephone pole alone.
They asked where the prisoner was,
and he replied he didn't know. He
then made the statement that as they

DIR. H. S. BRADLEY.

DR.. H. S. Bradley, pastor of
Trinity Church, Atlanta, preached
a grand and eloquent sermon at
the Methodist Church, last Sunday
morning. He is a very learned
expour der of the truths of the
Bible, ard brings new and impress
slve thoughts to the attention of
his hearers. His sermon Sunday
morning was from the text: "A
new commandment give | unto
you, love one another as | have
loved you" The old testament
taught righteousness, morality;
the Mosaic law being the guard
ance. The ten commandments no
where taught love. Even the Jews
believed it right to hate the dog
Of a Samaritan, and even the
Levite priest passed by on the
other side of one robbed and left
wounded on the wayside, believing
he was not worthy of attention,
But Christ, in this new command
ment, taught love as the ever con-
trolling force, the emptying one
self of hate and selfishness, and
loving even your enemies. Charity
was not III the scattering of mon
ey to begga1s, 1t is not recorded
that Christ ever gave a penny to
beggars, but he gave them love,
healed them of diseases and help
ed and inspired them to new life
and new hope Though betray-
ed by Judas and deserted by His
disciples in His most trying or
deal of trial and crucifixion; yet
after His resurrection, when His
| disciples had returned to their
boats and fishing nets, given up
the cause He appeared to them at
the seaside, and put the question
to boasting,Peter Lowest thou me

and ruin. Go thou and do likewise

THE SOUTH.

Look at the South today with its
5000, 900 900 to 500 5000 worth of
cotton each year; with its thousands of
miles of railroads, with its vast coal
and iron mines; with its immense tim.
Der interests, and a thousand other
wealth producing agencies, agricultural
and industrial. Is there another coun-
try on the face Of the globe that could
have shown such marvellous advance
ment in the face of obstacles that
seemed almost insurmountable forty
years ago? The South is the garden
spot of the republic and it is destined
to be one of the very richest portions
of the world The country that can
secure S700,G00,0O0 a year from one
crop alone cannot fail to accumulate
riches almost beyond computation =
Nashville American.
And the stride the South is making
in cotton manufacturing will soon
transfer the cotton mills of New Eng
land to this section, for the East can
not compete with the South with mills
right at the fields where the cotton is
grown. The North may continue to
harrass the South politically, but in
dustrially and financially the South
will outstrip her and continue in march
of marvellous progress and prosperity.

THE ARTIST.

There came an unknown artist, sweet
and shy,
Into old Natures studio one day.
April was sketching there, and
June and May;
With careless glance they passed the
stranger by,
But Nature kindly babe her come and
try
Her skill among them; so, without
delay,
She'set to work and first sketched
gray
And cherries landscape, with a
frowning sky;
Then with def brush she laid fresh
colors on
Crimson and gold and green and
set brown
And over all the living sunlight shone.
"Who art thou" cried the stu
dents, looking down
Upon her work, which put their own
to shame.
Blushing, she murmured, Autumn
is my name"
