ease with which William J. Clothier,

tennis championship from Beals c.
Wright of Boston, last years title

anticipated, but that Clothter should
win in straight sets, G3, Go, Ga, was

Good GOVERNMENT IN
PENNSYLvAN| A ON WAY
War Is on for the Reclamation of
Popular Rule-Lincoln Party
to Win,
Candidate for Governor Is Re-
lentless Foe to Corporate
Greed and Graft,

One of the most encouraging of the
many striking evidences of an awak-
ening electorate is found in the action
OF the friends Of good government in
Pennsylvania. The great revolt Of last
year was followed by battle Of the
interests or public-service corpora
tions and the Penrose-Durham gang
t. regain the lost ground and reen-
trench themselves throughout the
state; but the conscience-element of
the Republican party, refusing longer
to bow to party domination when that
domination meant public shame, cor
ruption, dishonesty and degradation,
pushed forward the organization Of
the Lincoln party and in a recent con-
vention nominated for governor on an
excellent platform one Of the ablest
Republicans of the state, who through
his public career has refused to be-
come the slave Of corporate greed Mr..
Emery, the candidate, has been one of
the most strenuous and relentless foes
of the Standard OILS corrupt practices
in the United States during his public
career extending over many years.
The nominations, however, Of the Lin
coin party did not give the Penrose-
Durham combination and the money
controlled machine serious uneasi-
ness, because they fully counted, and
with reason, on tre Democratic boss
naming ticket that would insure the
election of the machine Republican
organization, and true to this expec-
tation, the Democratic boss set out to
carry out the program so earnestly
desired by the public-service corpora
tions, the trusts, the grafters and cor.
rrptionists. The merger policy was
carried forward as it has been time
and again in recent years in order to
compass the defeat Of all men who
would not bow to corporate domina-
tion and the money-controlled ma
chimes. But unhappily for the corrup-
tionists and the enemies of the pub
lie, they had not counted on one fac.
tor in the case-the people-the rank
and file who make up the Democratic
party. The voters had SO often been
led as lambs to the slaughter for the
advancement and enrichment of the
bosses and privileged interests, that
Boss McGuffy had long since come to
regard them as his own property
The people, however, are rapidly
coming to see that the trusts, the
public. service corporations and the
Wall-street gamblers have long since
gained practical control of the pol1t-
ical machinery under the management
OF the bosses of both the great poll
teal parties. and they have deter
mined to exercise their high peroga-
tives and overthrow this corrupt

ANOTHER ANARCHIST LOOSE.

President A. B. Stickney, of the
Chicago and Great Western Railroad
said recently:
They have distributed to the public
billions of nominal dollars engraved
On bits of paper and thus have become
the possessors of wealth. A few men
have become enormously rich and con
spicuous. They have speculated and
doomed stock. They have built houses
with the most expensive luxurious fur
nishings. Nothing seemed of value
which was not expensive. So some nave
divorced their old wives and bought
younger and more expensive wives.
These are the contributions which
trade monopolies have made to pre-
sent prosperity. Contributions of vul-
garity, debauchery and shame!"

MEDICAL PRACTICE DEFINED.

The court of record of New York
state has given a definition of what
constitutes the practice of medicine. A
definition of this kind has long been
sought by the New York County Med
ical society in it's efforts to weed out
some Of the charlatanry that goes un-
der the guise of the healing art. The
definition was framed by Judge l..
Green.
THE practice of medicine" says
Judge Green, sis the exercise or per-
Torrance of any act by or through the
use of any thing or matter, Or by
things done, given or applied, whether
with or without the use of drugs or
medicine, and whether with or with
out fee therefor, by a person holding
himself Or herself out as able to cure
disease, with a view to relieve, heal or
cure, and having for it's object the
prevention, healing, remedying, cure or
alienation of disease"
If this decision is not water tight as
regards the practice of medicine, it
will be difficult to frame a decision
in words.

Cowboy Croesus of Death Valley At
tracts Thirsts as He Strews Money.
CHICAGO, Feb. 16-Walter Scott,
the Death Valley miner, reputed to be
a multi millionaire, walked into a
restaurant on Madison street yester-
day and, after first announcing that
he was busted" and was walking
home to California, fifteen minutes
later was buying champagne for ev-
cry one in the house, displaying huge
rolls of bank notes and telling tales of
backing millionaires off the boards in
New York.
He was wearing a blue shirt, a red
necktie and black kid gloves, and his
statement was received by the patrons
of the place with skepticism. Before
long, however, the rumor Of his pres
ence spread and he was surrounded
by curious customers, VINO gathered
to watch his actions.
Various questions were put to him
and the fact came out that he had
on mis- fast train to Chicago, in New
York His wife, he said, was in Ne
vada, having preceded him westward
He would not tell where his mines
are and would not even discuss them
He boosted of his achievements at the
Old Guard ball in New York, saying
that he broke into that function with
out an invitation and did not receive
one until midnight.
Il went over to a table where four
gents were sittin'," he said. They
shook hands with me and I said
wanted six quarts of wine-I told 'em
the brand, too. Well, one of the gents
suggested another brand, but 1 says
No When I buy wine I buy what
want. 1 know you're interested in
that wine, but that don't go with me.
He said he could buy me five times
over, and 1 produced and offered to
match him bank rolls. 1 showed him
twenty-five thou and backed MIN of
the boards I told him I knew all about
him and that he had to give his wife
$1,000 a while ago to come back and
live with him.

WHETS KNIFE FOR LONGWDRTH
Boss "Who Made Him" Enraged a
SLIGHT as to Wedding.

CINCINNATI, Feb. 16.-Word comes
from Washington that in Ohio circles
of that city there is beginning to be
questions as to whether Congressman
Nick Longworth has not injured his
political standing at home by his mat
rimoniaI engagement. Among those in
Cincinnati who keep in touch with
political men and things, it has been
a foregone conclusion from the first
that when the young congressman be-
gan lowering around Miss Roosevelt,
his political wings would be singed
should he carry out his evident pur-
pose of possessing her. That Long
worth fully recognizes this is fully
evidenced, these wiseacres believe, by
the non-appearance of the name of
Boss George B. Cox among the invited
wedding guests and the announced in
tention of the young couple to take
honeymoon trip extending over two
years Although Cox would doubtless
not acknowledge 1t, young LOngWOrtn
was "discovered' by the Cincinnati
boss, who took this scion of the blue
blooded and oldest families into his
following because it was his whim
that ne should have just such a repre-
sentative (only one) in his retinue.
Cox himself with his million Or two,
has unquestionably not been without
longing for some social recognition,
and the adding of Young Nick to his
staff would be no handicap certainly
in such quest. Bue now everything is
changed The boss badly dumped, is
still looking with exceeding keenness
for revenge for the disastrous defeat
of last November.

The county commissioners have the
pleasant opportunity now given them
to boost a movement, petitioned for by
property-owners who will have to

will be of incalculable value to the
business and social interests of this

means the beginning Of an era OF
progress, prosperity and happiness for

pleasant places. 1t is seldom that pub
lie officers have the opportunity to do

DRIED MILK FOR CHILDREN.

The statement by Chemist Wiley, of
the department of agriculture, that i'm
pure milk has caused the death of mil
lions of infants imparts special inter-
est and value to a recent consular re-
port which tells about the dried milk
industry which is attaining some mag
nitude in France.
This industry, it seems, is thus far
peculiarly French, though the machine
which makes it possible is American.
1t is economic as well as sanitary, for,
says the report, American competition
has made wheat growing Improbable
on many French acres, and cattle rails
ing has been taken up in its stead
In cattle districts not readily Access
sible to city markets the milk sup
ply is excessive, and the dairymen
have begun drying it to powder by
steam heating to % degrees above the
boiling point of water, putting it up in
cans or other packages and selling it
like any other canned goods.
Since good milk contains So per cent
of water, the dry powder weighs only
about one seventh as much as the milk
from which it is made. For baking,
the powder can be mixed dry with the
dough. When desired, says the report
it can be recontroverted into milk by
dissolving it in seven times it's weight
of pure water.
clares, the desiccated milk is boon to
families who cannot afford to buy
the best and purest milk for their in
fants. The temperature of $40 de-
grees to which the milk is subjected in
drying, as it passes over iron rollers
kills all germs which would cause fer
mentation Or other unwholesome con
ditions, and renders it digestible by in
FAINT stomachs.
Of course the milk powder is sold
much more cneaply than the quantity
of milk which it represents when
bought from the milkman at the door,
so that it is brought in reach Of the
poor. If the report is right in saying
that the food qualities of the milk are
in no way impaired by the process of
drying, there seems to be a great fu-
ture for the desiccated milk industry
in this country as we'll as abroad
