DIFFERENCES ARISE.
Germans Compelled to Pay High
 License for Trading.

Victoria, B. C., Dec. 23.-(Special.)- Differences have arisen between the Commonwealth of Australia and Ger many. with regard to the exclusive policy adopted by Germany in the South Pacific. according to advices re- ceived here today.
 The question arose after the steamer Isabella had been held by the Ger mans until a license of $2,250 per month was paid for trading in the Marshall group. Then a duty of $s ton was imposed on copra shipped into the group on British vessels, which trade from Australia. Australia Is consider ably aroused over Germany's interfer- ence with the Commonwealth's com- mercial activity in the South Seas, and there Is talk of reprisals. Negotiations are expected to take place regarding the matter, Australia having presented her grievance to London.

J. ". +.

In less than one month the teachers
of Cameron County will gather in their
annual session in our borough and
Miss Collins the efficient superintend-
ent is and has been untiring in her ef-
forts to make this session surpass in
assured interest and attractiveness all
it's predecessors Among the day in
structors are the following we'll known
educators: Prof Darst of Ada Univers-
ity, Ohio; Prof. J. George Becht Prin-
cipal of the Clarion State Normal
School, Prof. Harry Stauffer Principal
of the public schools, of Millville, NJ. :;
Miss Maud Willis of the Lock Haven
State Normal school and others for
whose services, negotiations are now
pending and to be announced later.
The evening attractions, indicated
last week, are absolutely uneXcelled
and the expense incurred in bringing
them here is such as to need the most
general and generous patronage on
the part of the public and is altogether
deserving of the same. The Cleveland
Woman's orchestra is alone worth the
cost of course ticket and the other
numbers, though including a smaller
number of people are fully its equal in
all that constitutes artistic excellence.
The teachers of town will make an
early canvass and we bespeak a liberal
patronage.

Progressive Journalism.

The references in the Independent of
last week with regard to the authorship
of certain editorials in the PRESS were
as wide of the mark as was it's personal
attack upon Mr.. McNarney, a few
weeks ago. In making this statement,
the PRESS does not concede the right
of the Independent, or any one else, to
go behind the responsibility of the
management of this paper. 1t is en-
tirely within the rights of an editor to
secure the assistance of other pens in
his editorial columns and every we'll
conducted journal avails itself of this
right, just as the Independent has al
ways done-the present editor being
for years in charge ofthe political end
of the paper, although under cover
We must accept as final the assurance
of the Independent editor that he has
no assistance. AS to his need for an
assistant-and also a sensor-his road
ers are in better position to pass
judgment than he is himself.

Mclnues Steel Wins.

Cory takes no back seat. \ teIe-
gram received last evening by the Ne
lnness Steel Co., of this city, an
nounces that in competition with all
the steel manufacturers of the world,
the Mclnnes Extra Air Hardening,
High Speed Steel, made in Cory. has
won over competitors at the ST. Louis
worlds fair.
The test was made on a piece Of
steel, in lathe, running at a rate of
100 feet per minute The tool Of Me
Innes Air Hardening High Speed Steel
was reducing the shaft inches with
a feed Of 316 of an inch. The com
mittee was selected to make the test
by all the steel manufacturers of the
world, The competition included
England, Germany and America with
Cory representing America and we
won. Alex. McInnes, Sr., originator
of the McInnes steels, was present at
the test.
This is gratifying news not only for
the company specially interested but to
this entire community. The prestige
which this award carries with it will
vastly benefit the manufacturers and
incidently this city. The McInnes
Steel Co., has been doing businese here
only little more than three years but
has already established on enviable
reputation throughout the country for
the quality of their product. The
word ''quality' expresses in an emin.
ent degree the characteristics of this
Cory manufacture. Both the COM
pany and the city at large are to be
congratulated on their success.-Corry

CLEAN POLITICS.
OF Historical Interest.

Our townsman, Mr.. j. +. Pars ons, is
the owner of volume that is full of
interest for those who like to delve in
to the early history of Pennsylvania.
This is a Bi-Centennial Memorial of
"Justus Falckner, Mystic and Scholar,
Devout Pietist in Germany, Hermit on
the Wissahickon, Missionary on the
Hudson" The work is compiled from
original sources by DIR. julius F.
Sachse of the Historical society of
Pennsylvania. Dominic Falckner, q
student at Halle University, came to
Pennsylvania in company with other
German Pietists and Mystics in 1894.
"He at first withdrew from the world
and lived as a recluse in sheltered
dell on the Wissahickon, passing his
time in prayer, study and silent con-
temptation. Thence, urged by the ap-
peals of the Hollandish Lutherans in
the valley of the Hudson, who were in
dire straits, and the persuasion of the
Swedish pastors on the Delaware, he
finally consented to be ordained by
them to the ministry, according to the
Swedish Lutheran ritual, in the vener-
able landmark on the Delaware, "Gloria
DEL" after which be at once assumed
charge of the scattered Lutherans in
the adjoining colonies" He died at
Newburg in 1923. The volume throws
much light on many conditions of the
early time.

rIr. Josiah Howard Candidacy.

IL JOoiei reward s Candidacy.
To the Editor Cameron County Press
noticed in last weeks Press and In.
dependent an article, signed "Republi-
can" calling attention to the fact that
Mr.. Josiah Howard, the Republican
candidate for Member Of Assembly,
had a number of years ago supported
Hon. 3. S. Smith.
The old campaign trick of signing
political articles, intended to iniure
candidate, with the designation of the
party Of the candidate, is so ancient
and hoary, that it does not deceive any
one; it might have answered the pur-
pose fifty years ago, but 10 make use of
it at this late day IS almost an insult to
an intelligent community.
However as to the facts in this case.
this article is direct slap in the face
of the three hundred or more Rapubli-
can voters Of Cameron county, who for
reasons of their own have in the past
supported DIR. Smith and f. X. BIumle.
and threat and menace to those who
are expected to.favor Mr. Blumle this
fall, thus giving him Il third term.
Gratitude for services rendered is
evidently not one of the faults of the
Democratic party in Cameron county.
Fearing that some of our Republican
friends might not fully understand the
situation, and might be misled by the
cry of "vindication, | wish to point
out The fact, that Mr.. Howard is not
candidate Of his own seeking, in fact
he only consented to run at the earnest
and continuous solicitation Of many
prominent Republicans, rs we'll as
Democrats, and not then until he had
secured Mr. Blum,e's statement that he
would not be a candidate. That Mr.
DlumIa made such statement to
number Of his friends, Of both political
parties. he cannot deny, nor can he de.
ny the fact that he was told and we'll
knew, that Mr.. Howard did not wish a
contest for election and If he Blumle,
were a candidate, he did not desire the
i4DNhit .Asob' 4fby OiilJ Jul5. Dul On dC'
count of the attitude of the Democratic
press Of this county, which has for
year past demanded the nomination of
Mr.. BIum!e, these pointed out to him,
that sufficient pressure might be
brought to make him the candidate
against his wishes, to which Mr..
Blumlo replied, that he could not be
forced upon the ticket, as "he had
mind of his own"
Only then Mr.. Howard consented to
become a candidate, and it sufices to say,
that the four hundred Republican
votes, which he received at the Primar-
les, and the fact that he was unani-
mously nominated, and without any
opposition whatsoever, should in itself
be a guarantee, that there are no sore
spots within the ranks of the Republi.
can party, that Mr.. Howard will have
the support of his party, which he well
deserves, and will be elected by &
handsome majority.
