A Fit Congressional Candidate.

The following taken from the Belle
fonte Watchman indicates the wide
spread public interest in the candidacy
of John G. McHenry of Benton, for
Congress, and the popular approval of
his ambition to serve the public in
that capacity. The Bellefonte Watch
man is published and edited by Hon
7. Gray Meek, for many years the
capable and efficient Secretary of the
Democratic State committee:
"The Democrats all over the State
will learn with more than ordinary
pleasure that Mr.. John G. McHenry,
ot Benton, Columbia county, is prac-
tically certain of a unanimous nomin-
alton for Congress in the district COM
posed of Columbia, Montour, North
umberland and Sullivan counties, and
that his election is assured. Mr.. Nc
Henry is among the best of the
"ounger Democrats of the State, who
have chosen to hold aloof from public
life, though always deeply concerned
tor the prosperity of Democracy. His
candidacy is a wholesome sign of poll
tlcal regeneration.
"For several years Mr.. McHenry
has been identified with the political
activities of his own section of the
State in the capacity of a progressive
private citizen. He has been even
more prominently identified with the
business interests of the State and is
favorably know in the commercial life
far beyond the boundaries of the Com
monwealth. His presence in Congress
therefore, will have sanitary infiu-
ence on the public mind. 1t will serve
as an assurance of conservatism and
safety in legislation.
''The country would be better for it
if all the capable young men trained
to business would give at least por-
ton of their time to the public service.
No schooling is as effective as that of
business experience. 1t broadens the
mind and whets the intellect to a
keen edge. For that reason it is al
ways gratifying to learn of such ven
lures in the political world as the
candidacy of John G. McHenry.
owe congratulate his prospective
constituents and wish him abundant
success and pleasure in public life. "

SURVIVAL
OF THE FITTEST.

Everyone expresses pleasure that
the business of coal mining is to pro-
ceed without interruption; at least
that of anthracite coal mining; it is
too much to expect that bituminous
mining will be undisturbed for any
length of time, as it does not seem to
be the "nature of the beast" 1t
may be expected, however, that all
the bituminous coal will be mined ere
long that is wanted at fair prices.
The trouble with this industry us
ually is that there is not enough de-
mand to keep the mines going; and
for years past the roads have been
trying to limit the production in order
that it may not swamp the demand.
Unhappily their efforts have always
been directed to choking off the small
consumer for the benefit of the big
producers, in whose business railroad
officials quite often were directly in
terested; wherefore they have come
into bad repute and are finding them
selves compelled to make damaging
admissions before examining commit
tees. And they seem to have an idea
of turning over new leaf and becom-
ing sufficiently virtuous to let every
producer have fair chance to get his
coal to market. If they do this at
any time before the millennium, they
will do well; but no doubt they will
let flood of coal on the market that
it can not dispose of at remunerative
prices; the result being the survival
of the fittest, which will be the pro-
ducer of the best fuel at the lowest
cost.
This condition of things we need
not expect to come to pass immediate
fy, however it be the natural course
'of the market.

The Judgeship.

Interest IN the coming primaries
now centers in the Judge contest.
The question, who shall preside over
our courts for the next ten years, will
be determined by the Democratic vot-
ers of this judicial district; and their
verdict will be given on the second
day of June by the Democracy of
Montour county, and by the Demo
cracy of this county at their primar-
les on the 9th day Of the same
month.
But two candidates are before the
people for this office, Judge Herring
and John G. Harman, Esq. One of
them will be the choice of the party
to be voted for at the general election,
and it is safe to say whichever it is
will be triumphantly elected.
In order that Democrats may act
wisely in making choice of their can
didate it will be necessary, first, to
understand that the office of a Judge
is to interpret law, and not to make
law. In order to interpret the law
correctly it is necessary that Judge
should be thoroughly grounded in the
principles of the law, and that he pos
sess broad and comprehensive know
ledge of the statutes and the decisions
of the courts. To these must be add
ed wide experience in actual practice.
If a candidate falls short of the above
requirements, he should not be con-
sidered seriously by Democrats as a
candidate.
In order that Judge may interpret
the law correctly, and thereby fill his
position with ability, he must of ne
cessity have had severe mental train
ing i'll youth and early manhood. 1t
is safe to say that man who has had
four years of mental discipline in col
lege and who has had more than twen-
ty years of actual practice in all the
courts as a lawyer, supplemented by
eight months experience on the bench,
is better fitted to interpret law than a
man eleven years his junior, who has
had neither college training nor
an extensive practice in the civil
courts.
The truth of the above conclusion
will not be questioned by people who
wish to act for the best interest of the
general public and for the welfare of
our Party.
That Grant Herring has all the
qualifications necessary to make an
excellent judge cannot be gainsaid.
No one who has come in contact with
him professionally or otherwise will
question it. He has a judicial mind,
and his great knowledge of the law
and his familiarity with the practice
of the courts-to say nothing of his
strong personality-make him an
ideal candidate, and if elected to the
bench he will rank with Conyngham,
Woodward and other earlier judges of
this district.
We know there are those who think
it would be better policy to go outside
the district for candidate; and for
proof of their position point to Elwell
and his predecessors. No person
questions these mems eminent ability
and fitness, but it would be unjust
and unfair to say that we did not have
in those times lawyers in this district
who were their equals in learning and
integrity. We need only mention
the names of Comfy, Badly, Bucka-
lew, Clark and jackson to prove our
assertion.
In those days a salary of $1,000
90 did not appeal to all strong law
yers to quit the bar for the bench
Now the salary is commensurate with

IN these days of strife between
two great political parties we must
remember that after all we are Just a
band of brothers here on earth, travel
ing from the cradle to the grave. We
live side by side, our children attend
ing the same schools and after the
smoke of the battle has cleared away,
we will still be friends and neighbors.
Let the bitter thing go unsaid. At
best, life is short, and we get out of
it a full measure of sorrow. Let us
in our little borough live as one big,
good natural family.

The coal operators assert tn

The coal operators assert that
one reason why the miners are not
prosperous is because they drink too
much intoxicating stuff. 1t is point
ed out that in Shenandoah there is a
saloon to every 16 voters, in Mahanoy
City one to every Is voters. In
stances like this could be multiplied
all over the coal field, and in the
town of New Philadelphia there is a
saloon to every six voters. Five hun
dred thousand barrels of beer were
brewed in Luzerne county last year,
and enough imported to make up for
the exports so that the entire half mil.
lion barrels were consumed at home.
These are figures that can't be got
away from.

GLAD IF
THEY RETURN.

Vt is too bad. We Americans, by
our disapproval of the course of Max
i'm Gorky, have dreadfully offended
the sensibilities of the anarchists and
socialists of Russia. They cannot
realize that we should object to their
representatives morals and those of
his female companion. The Russian
authors have also taken up the de-
fense of the rejected Gorky. They
held meeting to discuss the situa-
ton, and their feelings found vent in
the passage of the following resolu-
ton
"The American authors represented by
Mark Twain have offended Russian
authors in the person OF Maxim Gorky,
and Russian womanhood, in the person
of Nine. Andreiva, by interfering with
their private affairs. We Russian authors
are amazed at such disregard of the
principles of privacy recognized by every
civilized country, and hereby express our
deep indignation"
Of course, the American people are
extremely sorry that they have given
such deep cause of ofense to the au-
thors of Russia, but they are even
more surprised than sorry that the
literary guild of Russia should take
up and defend the kind of manhood
and womanhood represented by the
two oft: color representatives they have
sent us. We can only hope their
disgust at our conduct will reach such
a pitch that no more cattle of their
class will visit us. They would not
improve our citizenship, and our coun-
try has no use for them. We would
be only too glad to hear that Mr..
Gorky and Nine. Andreiva have re-
turned to their native land disgusted
at their treatment.
