Governor Stuart's Advice.

The governor is just now busy with
his attorney general In preparing the
state capitol cases for trial. He does
not neglect, however-upon any proper
occasion, TO urge the election of Mr..
Sheath.
While his official duties would not
permit him to attend the great Repub.
lican rally in Pittsburg on Saturday
evening last. Governor Stuart sent a
ringing letter, which was read at the
meeting, advocating the election OF
the Republican nominee for state
treasurer.
In this letter, Governor Stuart
among other things, said:
Il regret that an important
business engagement made some
time ago, which | am unable to
postpone will prevent me from
accepting your kind invitation.
assure you that nothing would
give me greater pleasure than to
come to Pittsburg and speak to
the people of Allegheny county in
favor of the election of John o.
Sheath. Republican candidate for
state treasurer have known, him
for upwards of 20 years. He has
served the state faithfully as a
member of the Legislature, is alb.
solutely inoorruptihle, and will con-
duct the Office of state treasurer
with credit to himself and honor
10 the Republican party and | do
| not hesitate to say with entire
satisfaction to the people Of Penn
| sylvania, there is no reason why
| any citizen should hesitate to cast
/ his vote for Mr.. Sheath" .
Candidate Sheath has had serie,
| of ovations since he started out upor
the stump. In Bradford. Kane anC
Indiana, where he went prior to hii
visit to Pittsburg on Saturday last
he was met by great crowds and wa:
assured of loyal support.
Mr.. Sheath Is not a professional
orator He is a plain. matter-of-fac
tafker, but he never fails to impress
his audience with his sincerity of pur
pose and with his determination tc
meet every obligation Of the trus

Warming to Party Men.

" TdItJ "CH.
There is just a word | have to
say to the men in the party organiza
tion in the various counties of the
state. Do not be fooled. The Demo
Gratis are wide-a wake and are going to
get out their vote. The independent
movements have gone to smash, but
the old-time Democratic enemy is still
doing business at the old stand and
will be at the polls on election day
No one, of course, looks for Mr..
Sheatz's defeat, but it it just such
conditions as exist today that have
cost the Republican party dearly in
the past. The Republican vote must
be got to the polls. -- .''
Taking it for granted that every,
thing is all right has been the undo.
ing of many a party leader. What we
want at the coming election is the
greatest possible percentage of the
vote put into the ballot boxes, and
then we will be able to celebrate a
victory of which every Republican can
be proud, and which will put the
party in this state in full strength
upon the firing line for the presiden.
tial battle of next year.

est reform agencies in the world out
side of the regular church. 1t is
operating in four fields, the interna-

ity and intemperance. 1t Is combin-
ing four agencies, churches, reform

eau has been instrumental in secur-
ing the overthrow of the opium traffic
in the PHILIPPINES where there are
now IL, 200 opium smokers licensed

has gone forth from the department
of state that this must forever cease
on the first Of March. As another
blucher the bureau furnished tbs

President.

Chicago, H.. Oct. 81. Followed
by ieers and hisses, s. J. Small, for
mer president Of the commercial tel /.
egraphers' union, left Ulrich hall in
tears yesterday afternoon, He did
not get the vindication which he
sought at the hands Of the rank aud
file Of the local union. As Small
left the hall be appeared broken
hearted and declared he had given up
the fght for restortion to has former
position. His successor, w. W.
Beattie Of Washington, who was vice

formally recognized as the new head
Of the union. He announced that
his policy would be an aggressive
| one.
When the meeting opened IN the
afternoon President Small, who had
been waiting In an anteroom for a
chance to be heard. was invited to
the platform. Hardly had he as.
cended the steps to the platform when
a number Of strikers got up and let
the loom. Others booted and Kissed
so that the words Of the former pTesl /.
dent we're drowned. In Q pathetic
way he appealed to the older mem
bers of the union, sayi be had
children, and that they should not be
disrgaced by the branding of the
father as dishonest without one bit
Of evidence, and without a bearing.
This appeal, however, had little
effect, although great manV Of the
strikers. after the meeting had ad
journed, agreed that Small had been
treated shsmefully, and at least
should have been received with com
mon decency.
1t was voted at today's meeting to
assess brokers and leased wire oper.

Of calling them out on strike.

or 70 settlers while away, not one of
whom but that favors Occur d'Alene
for the county seat. These settlers
are chiefly along the Occur d'Alene
river and west from the county line.
They are frank in their reasons.
They claim they must pass through
Occur d'Alene when they go to Rath-
drum and besides the accommoda.
tlons to be found in our city greatly
surpassed those of Rathdrum. They
base their reasons upon accommoda
tions and economy.

upon the good name Of a Christian
community like this, that the NUM-

ing itself by exactinR a monthly tax
OF $50 from the fallen characters
which il is tolerating contrary TO

their taxes paid at the price Of vir-
tueY 1t is q disgrace to Christian

taking steps to prevent the importa-
tion Of this white slave traffic into

France lie calling upon the nations TO
join in suppressinE this awful evil,
IL is surely time for the voice of the
chruch to be heard Another work
