sens International Union recently held at
Trenton. n. j.. confirmed the referendum
vote of the subordinate unions which was
favorable to establishing permanent na-
tional headquarters. The proposition was
submitted to the various unions by order
of a previous convention held at Memphis,
rem, end was approved by majority OF
42G unions of total of 651 unions voting.
AS recommended tAyqa. committee APP
pointed at the Memphis, convention, india
napolis, Ind, was chosen as the location
for the permanent headquarters, for the
reasons that 1t is the most centrally locat-
ed city in the jurisdiction of the national
organization and contatHs the majority OF
headquarters of labor organizations.
The reasons submittedSby the committee
to the subordinate unions for the location
of permanent headquarters were: That
the present system of government Is too
ancient and slow to meet the demands OF
this growing organizationia and the committee
believes that the establishment OF perma-
rent headquarters will be the means of con-
centrating the entire business OF the execu-
tive and judiciary boards. thereby eliminat-
Ing the long and tedjeus delays which some
times result In great financial loss or the

to deal more promptly with the business
wants Of the International union"
The convention also decided to again
submit to referendum vote OF the subordl-
nate unions In June next the question of
afhliation with the American Federation of
Labor. This question, 1t IL stated, has
been submitted to the unions several times,
the proposition being defeated last Oc-
tober by small majority. As quite q

being the desire Of the convention to de-
termine the full sentiment Of the member

JOHN ALLEN
His Possible Appointment to a
Censularship the Latest News.

From the Commercial Appeal.
JACKSON, MISS, Dec. 1o.-An
interesting bit Of political gossip
is in circulation TO the effect that
within the next few months, prob
ally before the adjournment of the
present session of congress, Pres
ldent Roosevelt will tender a sub
stantial appointment to Mississip-
pis famous wit and reconteur,
Private" John Allen, Of Tupelo,
who for more than two decades re-
presented the First district in the
lower house.
he source Of the rumor is diff
Gcult to ascertain, but it is being
discussed by politicians who evi.
IDENTIFY gain their inspiration from
Washington. The nature Of the
appointment is not mentioned,
but the story is to the effect that
the president is anxious to honor
the famous Mississippian IN some
substantial way, probably in the
diplomatic or consular service.
His nomination to such a post
would undoubtedly meet with the
hearty approval of Republicans
as well as Democrats at the nation
al capital, for no man ever held q

The duties of this office are now
drawing to a close, and unless Mr..

The Whipping Post.

Slowed away in the recesses of
Mr. Roosevelfs message to con
gress will be found this very sug-
gestive little paragraph:
4" there are certain offenders
whose crminality takes the shape
of brutality and cruelty toward the
weak, who need a special type of
punishment. The -beater, for
example, is inadequately punished
by imprisonment, for imprison
mem may often mean nothing to
him, while it may cause hun
ger and want to the wife and
children who have been the
victims of his brutality. Probably
some form of corporal punish.
ment would be the most adequate
way of meeting this kind Of
crime" If this means anything
at all it means that the United
States favors the whipping post,
especially for wife-beaters. the
most contemplate class Of Grim
inals in the land, and the hardest
to deal with 1t is very true, as
the president suggests, that the
wife beater would not seriously
object to torn of Imprisonment
in fact, that class of offenders often
hail Jail sentance with great
delight. They get rest from
their labors, are we'll fed and cared
for, and their families are the on
ly ones that suffer on account OF
their confinement.
There was time in the history
Of this contry when the whipping
post was an established mode of
punishment in several of states of
the Past, but it now only clings to
little Delaware, where it has been
found very eficacious. as cases of
wife-beating are almost unheard Of.
In most of states 1t has been de-
clared brutal, a relic of barbarism,
and has given way to foot bail,
prize fighting, etc.
We copy the above from an ex-
change. We heartily approve of
Rooseyelt's suggestion. If there is
any part Of the country where its
adoption would do goodir is here
IN the south where wife beating,
with apart of the population, is
the rule and not the exception.
This suggestion must have come
from the southern half of Teddie.
He says that there is strong
strain of brutality in the southern
er's nature. 1t seems that he occa-
sionaliy turns loose evidences that
he inherited some strong qualities
from the southern side OF his an
cestry.

The PHILIPPINE Islands.

Tue conditions of the PHILIPPINE
Islands and their inhabitants, af-
ter having been five years in the
possession and under the tutelage
of the United States, is not en-
couraging, says the Courier Jour
nal, even according to those who
take the most favorable view Of
the situation. The annual report
of Judge Taft, while evidently in
tended to present the case in the
most favorable light of which the
facts admitted. disclosps vast
amount Of work yet to be done be-
fore there can be any hope of dis.
similation Of the incongruous ele
ments comprised in the popula-
ton. He acknowledges that except
in few favored localities there
has been but little progress, ply
sical or intellectual, and that prac-
tically throughout the islands, as
a rule, the most which has been
effected has been in the suppress
sion Of insurrection and the or
ganization Of tentative reforms as
to education and citizenship. AS
far as capacity for self-govern-
ment is concerned the period, even
in his opinion, when this may be
expected, is too remote or uncer
tain for prediction.

The Forest Republican. [volume] (Tionesta, Pa.) 1869-1952, 1904-11-23

Tom WATsoN's explanation of the over
whelming defeat of the Democratic party
at the late election is that the people new
er before had an opportunity to express
themselves directly on the subject OF
Grover Cleveland's second administra-
ton, and as Mr.. Cleveland, Perry Bel
mont, Olney and others closely allied
with the Wall Street bond deal were the
main supporters of Judge Parker, they
eagerly embraced the opportunity to ex-
press their disapproval of the whole
bunch at the polls. This was one of the
reasons. But, as the Punxsutawney
Spirit observes, of course there are

What the Figures Show.

The Official figures now available for
the Twenty eighth congressional district
show that Sibley, Republican, received
1851 votes; Heilman, Democratic, IL, O,65l;
Gill, Prohihitionist, 1929, and Foster,
Socialist, SCS. Sibley's plurality over
Heilman is 9,2lO Sibley's plurality over
the Democratic nominee is nearly twice
what it was in 1902, when he beat Wat
son by only 4,727. Sibley's plurality
over Gill is Is, ,232. 1t is a somewhat in-
terestinI fact that Sihley's majority in
Nenango county alone is COZ greater than
Gill received in the whole five counties of
the district. 1t is further significant in
this connection that Gill's vote in Venan
20 county i 7S7 less than that polled in
1908 for McCalmont, Prohibition candi-
date for district attorney. Mr.. Sibley's
majority in tho district over the other
three candidates is 3,77S, while in 1902 his
majority over all was only 1864, or less
than half as great rs his present one.
Large as his total majority is it would
have been increased 10y over 2,200 in the
district iflt had not been for the confus-
ing change in the form Of the ballot
which caused lots of votes to be counted
for the Republican Presidential electors
only while those who cast them supposed
they were voting for every candidate on
the Republican ticket. When this ct is
borne in mind, and when it is also con-
sidered that the Prohibition leaders in
Venango county in their frantic desire to
defeat Mr.Sibley conducted an expensive
campaign of many months, having hired
speakers. singers, banners, water wagons,
childrer,'s parades, and special trains,
while Mr.. Sibley's campaign was notably
brief and except the barbecue, at the out
set, devoid of all unusual or spectacular
features, the great victory achieved by
Mr. Sibley can only be construed as un-
mistakable appreciation on the part of
his constituents for the able and uniting
efforts put forth by him in their behalf
