Our New State Chairman.

The Democracy Of Pennsylvania
is literally putting its best foot
forward this year. The unani-
nous nomination of John Harman
by the recent State conuention has
been followed by an equally wise
choice of a State Committee chair
man on Wednesday. State Senator
George NJ. Dimeling will make an
ideal campaign manager. He will
put into the work all the elements
which command success.
Senator Dimeling's political ca
reer has been singularly brilliant.
He was elected Treasurer Of Clear
field county, in which he was born
cd bred, at a very early age. He
chairman of the Democratic
MY committee when Judge Ali
0. Smith carried the election by
overwhelming majority and that
~-;ilt was largely attributable to
KS ability as campaigner. His
election to the State Senate last fail
was a proof alike of his personal
popularity and skill in management.
His nomination, at the close of his
first session, as the candidate of his
party for president pro tenn. of the
body was compliment as rare as
it was we'll bestowed. 1t is seldom
that such distinction is conferred
Oh new Senator
The selection of Senator Dimel-
ing to the craftsmanship of the State
committee, therefore, was an ex-
preston of the highest measure Of
of political wisdom and sagacity.
1t will inspire confidence alike in
the integrity and the capability of
the organization. 1t is notice to the
public that the party has been re-
stored to a condition of sanity and
sincerity. Chairman Dimeling will
neither default nor blunder. If the
party fails of victory it won't be
his fault. - E1.

Trimmed the Lightning Rod Men,

The papers of the country are
full of stories Of how lightning rod
sharpers have buncoed the farmers,
but from Danville comes one of
how Farmer Jesse Bogert, of Ii
berty township, got SI4o worth of
rods on his barn for nothing. The
sharpers worked OH him until he
allowed them to put up the rods on
his barn, for an advertisement,
Jesse looking wise and saying moth
ing. But when they completed the
job they wanted him to sign a
statement that it was nice job,
just to show that he appreciated
the work and to show to his neigh
bors as an advertisement.
Jesse looked it over, said "huh,
guess not amt signing any
papers" The agents stormed, cuss-
ed and threatened, but Mr.. Bogert
was firm, telling them to take the
rods down if they wanted to. After
offering to settle for S25, which
offer was refused, they drove away
cussing the farmer, who sat OH the
fence and laughed at them.

in this line are the South American
Republics themselves. The Lrago
Doctrine, it will be remembered, is
a sort of supplement to the Monroe
Doctrine. lis gist is a prohibition
against the cole ,tion of debts from
any of the South American Repub-
lies by armed European force. OF
course, such a doctrine is distinctly
distasteful to European powers;
but objection is made also by some
of the South American Republics
that it would hurt tn ir national
credit and handicap them in bor-
rowing money abroad. On the other
hand, this Government takes the
view that foreigners who lend mon
ey at eXorbitant rates of interest
on questionable security to South
American Governments, should be
prepared to take their own risk and
not rely OH making the warships of
their home country debt collecting
agencies abroad.

1t is greatly feared that Commits
sioner Neill OF the Bureau of Labor
will not be able, after all, to avert
the telegraph strike which threat
ems to hamper the business of the
whole country. The attitude both
of the telegraph operators and their
employing companies is unreasona-
bic. The demands of the men in
San Francisco for increased pay is
defensible, owing to the peculiar
living conditions with which they
are now faced i'll that city. The
refusal of the telegraph companies
to confer with them is unreasona-
Bile obstinacy. The telegraphers i'll
other parts of the country, on the
other hand, are equally unreasona-
be in their attitude towaads a sym.
pathetic and it is feared that the
dispute cannot be settled without
an actual strike which will be little
short of calamity to the business
community.

Here's something new from the
Altoona 7ti6Mne that everybody
ought to read. 1t won't hurt those
it does not hit and it may let those
that it does fit see the estimate the
community puts on them: The
evil tongue frequently creates a
multitude of sorrows, sometimes
breaks up families and often fills
premature graves or the cells of lu
natic asylums. Reckless mendacity
is a vice of the most malignant
character. 1t is, indeed, character
less as we'll as merciless. Good cit
izens ought to combine to scourge
the tale-bearer out of the communi-
ty to which he is so deadly a foe.
He is responsible for many evil
things that would never come to
birth had it not been for his exer-
tions.

GROCERY STORES TO BE IN.
SPECTED.

Inspectors of the State agricultu-
raj department are making an in
speclion of all the wholesale and re-
tail groceries in the State and see
ing that they conform with the new
food laws which have recently been
enacted and which require that all
goods displayed for sale in bulk or
packages shall bear a guarantee of
their purity and a statement of
their ingredients if they are manu-
factured from any substance foreign
to the original article which they
are supposed to represent.
While the State department has
instruction to enforce the law to the
letter, it is we'll understood that il
will take some time for the grocers
to dispose of the goods which they
had on hand at the time the law
went into effect and every assist
ance is given to get the law into
operation as soon as possible so that
there will be no undue activity tc
secure its enforcement,
AS the terms of the law are very
intricate and might be misunder
stood easily by the novice, the in
spectors Lave been given instruc
tions to visit all grocers, and tc
thoroughly explain all of the differ
ent provisions of the law so tina
there will be no chance for any
question to arise in the near future
which might cause unwarranteC
delays in bringing its operation t.
the efficiency which is expected.

1t costs this country six billions
of dollars to care for her criminals

cost appear the more disagreeable
is the fact that the larger part of
this money is expended in the
maintenance of foreign criminals
and paupers.

Don't be startled by crash of
thunder. No man ever heard the
shock by which he was killed.
Lightning travels at an inconceiv-
able swiftness in second, while
thunder, like the report of cam
non, passes more slowly through
the atmosphere. The proximity Of
danger from lightning is easily dis
coverable by observing the length
of time which passes between its
flash aud the report of thunder +;
for lightning and thunder always
accompany each other simultane-
ously but at distance the light
ming is perceived almost instantane-
ously.

days before had gathered in the lit.
tie hollows of the wood deceptively.
The detective plunged into one OF
these and fell sprawling on all fours--
calamity that caused his comrades
to pause uneasily. Larry was upon
his enemy in a flash, wrenched his
pistol away and pulled the man to his
feet.
"Ah, Davidson. There's many a
slipi Move, if you dare, and I'll plug
you with your own gun" And he
stood behind the man, using him as a
shield while Morgan and the rest of
the army hung near the boat house
uncertainty.
Its the strategic intellect we've
captured, general" observed Larry to
me. "You see the American invaders
were depending on British brains"
Morgan now acted on the hint we
had furnished him and sent his men
out as skirmishers. The loss of the
detective had undoubtedly staggered
the caretaker, and we were slowly re-
treating toward the house, Larry with
one hand on the collar of his pris-
oner and the other grasping the re-
volver, with which he poked the man
frequently in the ribs. We slowly
continued our retreat, fearing a rush,
which would have disposed of us cas-
lily enough if Morgan's company had
shown any fighting spirit. Stoddard's
presence rather amazed and intimi-
dated them, l think, and saw that
the invaders kept away from his end
of the line. We were now far apart,
stumbling over the snow-covered
earth and calling to one another now
| and then that we might not become
too widely separated. Davidson did
not relish his capture by the man he
had followed across the ocean, and
he attempted once to roar command
to Morgan.

1t was no time for a discussion of

Besieged.

II was nine o'clock. We had swal-
lowed some breakfast, though believe
no one had manifested an appetite,
and we were cheering ourselves with
the idlest talk possible. Stoddard, who
had been to the chapel for his usual
seven o'clock service, was deep in the
pocket Greek testament he always car
ried.
Bates ran in to report a summons
at the outer wall, and Larry. and !
went together to answer it, sending
Bates to keep watch toward the lake.
Our friend, the sheriff, with dep
uty, was outside in buggy. He stood
up and talked to us over the wall.

WHAT THE WOMEN WORE.
OF Course the Story Teller Didn't
Really Mean Just That.

A gentleman recently returned from
that quiet little Maryland resort,
Ocean City, has a tale to tell of con-
ditions that are really sensational.
And the worst of 1t was that he did
not know they were sensational at all.
He was out calling the other evening,
and the conversation started with the
shirtwaist man, who, the returned
wanderer said, was to be found In
great quantities at the summer resort
Then he told about the habit every
body down there had contracted Of
going without hats. This is the way
he told it to an interested company:
"You see everybody down there
going about just the same. The men
never wear coats; they go about in
Just their shirts and trousers, and the
women are just like them"

Now we're in for it," yelled Larry;

running across the ice toward the
shore.
"Open order, and fall back slowly

we deployed from the boat-house, while
the attacking party still chung to-

as Larry assured us.
! "Stay together, lads. Don't sepa

yelled derisively to the enemy.
Stoddard babe him keep still, and
we soon had our hands full with a
preliminary skirmish. Davidson, the
detective, seemed Disguised at Nor
gan's tactics, openly abused the care
taker, and ran ahead of his column
revolver in hand, bearing down upon
Larry, who held our center.
The Englishman's haste was his
