Injustice TO Penr0se.

There is sufficient evidence on hand to
show that the precipitation of the name
of Senator Penrose in connection with
the now we'll known "S5, 100000 con-
spirscy" as groundless as any political
scheme that was ever concocted.
For Senator Penrose to do, say or even
think of any act against President Roose-
velt would be for the senior Senator from
Pennsylvania to go exactly contrary to
his past record towards the President.
The facts are. and no one knows them
better than Mr.. Roosevelt himself, that
in all of the Presidents policies he has
had no stronger or more ardent supporter
than Senator Penrose. For him to now
become affiliated, either directly or by
import, with any movement or scheme to
retsrd the execution or extension OF the
Presidents policies would be confession
on Senator Penrose's part that in all his
support OF President Roosevelt during
the past he was in the wrong; aud such is
by no Means the case.
To mention one particular illustration
of Senator Penrose's loyalty to the Presi-
dent was that he was instrumental in
sidetrackiDg the Foraker resolution on
the Brownsville colored troops matter,
and having passed substitute practically
removing all unjust adverse criticism OF
the Presidents action in the matter. II
such move is adverse to the President,
on the part of Senator Psnrose, we fail to
know what antagonism means. But this
is only one of number of evidences
which 90 to show that the senior Senator
from Pennsylvania has always stood by
the President and does today as strongly
as ever, and no one knows it better thar
President Roosevelt himself
These are the facts in the case, notwith
standing tue strenuous efforts made t
associate Senator Penrose with any mum
ber of individuals In an effort to antSg
onize the President in his policies. AL
the facts show Mr.. Penroses continued
loyalty to President Roosevelt. Twill

MANY old veterans throughout the
state are concerned as to the fate of the
state pension bill which has passed the
Senate and is now in the House for con-
currence. This bill was introduced by
Democratic senator, and the members of
that party in the legislature are anxious
to put the Republicans on record on the
bill. Their solicitude for the old soldier
is no greater than il ever was. The bill
is righteous one and il enacted into law
would bring joy to the hearts of many an
old veteran whose years on earth are but
few at best. We trust the Republican
House will pass the bill and thus put
their Democratic colleagues to test OF
the loyalty and friendship they seem all
at once to have taken on for the old SOL
dier. Pass the bill.

please or honor some good man with "a
term or two" What nonsense, isn't 1t,
when you come to look at 1t from COM
mon sense, unselfish standpoint Mr..
Smith ought to enter the field in the next
campaign in an effort to break up this
enormous folly of changing representa-
tives except for good and sufficient rea-
sons, among which would be dishonesty,
incompetency, or refusal longer to
serve. Mr.. Smiths legislative exper-
fence and training has been quite exten-
sive, and being just in the prime of life
he would be of inestimable value to his
constituents we're be returned repeatedly
to congress from his district. His people
should insist upon his candidacy at the
next pri aries, and should bend every
effort toward aiding him in breaking up
this "unwrilten' and nonsensical rota-
ton law.

The Carolina Poplar.

Under this name unscrupulous tree
agents have been selling a so called shade
tree, characterized by its rapid growth.
The specimens have seen in this locality
are nothing but Cottonwood, and COM
pared with other trees used for shade is
valueless. Writers on Forestry declare
it is "only weed not worth the cutting"
Perhaps it will grow faster than any tree
in this climate. Prot. Green says it may
be found from Quebec to Florida, aud
west to New Mexico. About its only
merit is its rapid growth, and 1t can be
used for pulp, but not successfully Tor
timber purposes. In Kansas it is sawed
for weather boarding to some extent, but
the boards must be tackled on green, the
sooner after 1t is cut the better, as 1t has
been said If it remains few days ex-
posed to the sun that it will "curl itself
up into hoop and the winds will bow it
out of the field and over the prairie" Its
roots extend in all directions filling
drains and sewers; will raise sidewalks OF
all descripti ms if you will only give 1t
time. The roots also will go clear under
q cellar, and send up shoots in the garden
behind the house. 1t will flourish in
most any kind of soil, and is equal to the
willow If not better along streams to pro-
tect the banks from being washed. No
tree or shrub is superior for this pur-
nose, and the beauty of it is it Is so easily
propagated All that is necessary is TO
cut slips a foot long in the early spring,
take bar and pinch them into the bank,
leaving q bud or so above ground, and
four. fifths of the shoots will grow. This
would be good way to protect the banks
of our river in Tionesta. These trees
have been known TO grow several feet the
first season in favorable and moist sit
uaticns and be or inches in diameter
aud 40 feet high in years. so the growth
is immense. Five or six feet in one sea-
son is not uncommon. They are only
fit to plant in two places along streams
where the object is to protect the banks,
or on poor ground away from houses and
improvements. This is the doctrine oi
those who have investigated the nature OF
this tree. To protect river and creek
banks it has no superior, while as shade
tree 1t is a positive nuisance for many
reasons. SAMUEL D. IRWIN,

The Miserable Rotation System.

A few congressional districts in this
state still persist in hanging to the abomi-
nable rotation, or psss-it-around, system
in the election of Representatives in the
National House. The people in these
districts have become so imbued with the
idea that their particular friends should
be favored by election to congress re-
gardless of what these friends capabili-
ties as representative are, that they have
lost sight of the fact that no one or two
term member can be of any great use to
his constituents. And for this very len
lent way of looking at a matter of 30
great importance these districts lose
much, or all, you might say, of the
standing and influence they should exert
in represent tative way. Isn't 1t possible
to make voters understand the folly of
such nonsensical course? Do they not
know that representatives from the rota-
ton districts are looked upon in the light
of mere joke when they enter congress?
The older mem bers understand that they
are to be mere yearlings, or at best two
year-olds, and so they are given very
little attention or consideration when the
important committee assignments are
made. Why, member under two terms
never gets on a committee of the least
importance, and in committee is where
the real work is done. Suppose James
G. Blaine had been retired after his Sec
ond or third term in congress, would the
country ever have heard of him again?
Surely not This thing OF taking on a
new apprentice every two or four years
ought to appeal to every one as wrong
idea in any business, and especially so
when people are electlng men to repre-
sent them and of whom they expect any
very great usefulness in congress. The
longer member is kept in congress the
more potent he becomes, the more things
he can accomplish for his people and the
easier it is to accomplish them. This
fact is surely patent to every thinking
citizen. The first requisite representa-
tive must possess is honesty, the next is
brains, and the very next, experience and
the prestige of continuous service. 1t is
not essential that a man should possess
great forensic talent, that is nice ad-
iunct along with other qualifications, but
il is the worker and the influential hust-
Ter who gets the good things for his con-
stituents, and he doesn't get them with g
brass band either, but rather by having g
knowledge how to get them, and this
knowledge is gained only by long exper'
ionce. We have in mind one distric
which has been "rotating" for the pas
twenty years or more; it is our neighbor
the 9th, composed of the counties o
Jefferson, Clarion, Indiana and Arm
strong. By the abominable rotation
system one of the best, most careful
painstaking and indefatigable workers in
the last congress, Hon. w. o. Smith, was
Obliged to step down and out for new
man. because it was the other fellows
turn. That district is one OF the creates
