ttrement.
The critics of the Diugley tariff are
again upset by the latest official report,
which shows that the exports of domes.
tic manufactures from the United
States i'll 1904 for the first time in our
history exceeded 100000, 900. Under
the Dingley tariff, accordingly, we have
increased our sales of manufactures to
Europe $1T5.0OO.O00 above what they
were when the Democrats had tariff
of their own which they enacted on the
claim that 1t would greatly increase our
foreign trade and not harm our trade
at home.
Under the Democratic free raw ma
teritI tariff We suffered from industrial
stagnation at home and we lost much
foreign trade. And yet. no doubt. free
traders will continue TO shout for free
trade and such Il bad tariff as they are
easily capable of. Such little matters
as facts of trade don't seem to disturb
tinker contemplation of theories. BY
the way, the shout for tariff tinkering

BRYAN IN A NEW ROLE.
Has Abandoned the Realm of Theory
and Come Down to Facts


William ]. Bryan. the former quad
rennial candidate for the presidential
nomination on the Democratic ticket,
again springs into the limeight of the
national stage, but this time abandon
ing the role of heavy tragcdian, he ap-
pears in the vaudeville of an all around
wizard. He has advertised his new
turn" rs that of Il prophetic dreamer.
No one who knows Mr.. Bryans emf
nently practical and profitable way of
dealing with his opportunities is likely
10 misunderstood his attitude. He is
not sentimental dreamer He is not
reveling in Imagination and giving
forth hopeful estimates of the advan-
tages the United States will enjoy
when free silver coinage is in every
mans mind and tax on every
mans income. No; Mr.. Bryan, as il
dreamer. has abandoned the realm of
theory and has come down 10 solid
facts. If he can foretell fire, why can
he not give advance tips on nominees
and majoritieSt And will ii not be Il
'cinch" to nominate man who knows
in advance how the election is going?
If he did not know his calling and elec-
tion sure, his friends will say, he would
not accept the nomination; consequent
ly if he does accept the nomination ii
will be because his prophetic powers
have revealed to him his certain sue
cess ut the polls Ergo, he is as good as
elected already. Mr.. Bryan doesn't in
tend to give any other Democrat a
chance for that nomination three years
hence, even supposng any other Dem
ocrat would take (which. in view of
last November's election, is by no
means certain.-Chicago Evening Post

Under law which has just been
signed by Governor Peunypacker,
hunters, fisherman, berry-pickers
and any others who like to roam
through woods and fields, will have
to exercise considerable care as to
where they go; otherwise they will
be liable to fine of so for trespass.
The new law gives the owner of
any property the right to put up
tresspass signs, and provides punish
ment for anyone who enters on the
property when such signs are dis
plnyed. Under the present law the
only recourse left to the owner of
land has been IA civil suit to cover
damages from those who trespass on
lands where signs are posted. Be
cause it was in most places impossi
BILE to collect such damages trespass
notices have not been very common.
The new law is far reaching in its
new effect. 1t provides that any
person who as much as enters on
land where tresspess notices are
prominently displayed, whether
damage is done or not, is liable to be
fined, before any alderman or justice
of the peace. The fine cannot eX-
ceed SO for any one oilense, and the
costs of the prosecution. It provides
that in case the fine is not paid. the
person convicted shall spend day
in Jail for each dollar of the fine.
The act further provides that moneys
collected for such fines shall go to the

Death OF Mrs. Mary phillips.

Mrs. Mary Phillips, wife of Mr..
Griffith Phillips, died at her home at
Sonestown, Thursday May 18th,
after an illness extending over per-
iod of several years, of nervous dis
order and stomach trouble, during
which time she endured intense suf-
fering. Mrs. Phillips before her
marriage was Miss Mary Selars.
Early in life she became united with
the Methodist and ever after led an
exemplary Christian life and up to
the time of her illness was a faithful
attendant at church. She was a
woman of fine character and was
beloved for her real worth, trait
that she was quick to perceive and
admire in others; as devoted wife,
a fond mother and true friend she
will be sadly missed. She is surviv
ed by husband and three children:
Mr.. Harry Phillips Of Jersey Shore;
Mrs. Will KIcss and Mrs. Charles
l1azen, both of SOnestown; two
brothers and two sisters, Miss Sue
SellarS and Mrs. Benjamin Taylor
of Stlawbridge. The funeral servic-
es were held on Sunday at the NJ.
f. church at Sonestown, and were
conducted by Rev. s. b. BidIack,
who preached very impressive
sermon. Several beautiful selection
were rendered by the choir, after
were laid to rest in the Sonestown

Persons interested in the human

not, will be glad TO learn that the at
tempt of certain railroads to evade
the law requiring that stock in tran
sit shall be unlOaded, fed and water
eel at intervals of not less than 2S
hours, has proved fruitless. The
Secretary of Agriculture has been at
tempting to secure strict observance
of the law but certain terminal rail
ways claimed that in the landing of
stock received from through lines
they were exempt. The Secretary
Of Agriculture appealed the case to
the Attorney General who has Just
rendered AN opinion sustaining the
Secretary. There have been four
hundred reported violations of the
law within the past three months
and the Department of Justice will
now undertake the prosecutions of
the guilty persons. Some of the
leading railroad. have already signi-
| fled their intention OF pleading guilty
and paying the ir fines, which prob
, ably indicates that they will not
risk another violation of the law.
