dishonest and disreputable. But they
were characteristic.
After the adjournment of the Legis-
lature Mr.. Sheath came here to confer
with the Governor with respect to cut
ting or killing appropriation bills. The
bungling committee had passed appro-
priation bills aggregating S92,000,000
and the revenues would scarcely reach
So, 100000. There was a difference of
$40,000,000 to be reconciled by one
method or the other. What did Mr..
Sheatz suggest? Did he propose to cut
down the unconstitutional and conse-
quently invalid appropriations to pri-
vate institutions in Philadelphia ? Not
on your life. He promptly recommend
ed the veto of the Soldiers pension bill
and that was done. Therefore every
veteran of the Civil War and every
friend of those veterans has just
grievance against John o, Sheath.
HIS RELATION TO REVENUE BILLS.
The Noyfh american, in pursuance,
further, Of its scheme of false pretense,
alleges that Mr.. Sheath laid the fact
that the revenues were insufficient to
meet the requirements of the pension
bill "before the members OF the House
and the people at large in such way
as to create the sentiment which inn
PEELED the introduction in the House of
measures to raise the money needed to
pay the pensions That is absolutely
and unequivocally false. Nearly all
the revenue bills were introduced by
Mr. Greasy and other Democratic Rep
resentatives and wer5 not even Undue
ed 10y the pension bill. The purpose
was to increase the revenues of the
State in order that greater sums might
be turned back for local uses.
Most of the revenue bills which pass-
ed the House during the recent session
had been introduced during the ses-
sions of 1908 and 1905 and so far from
Mr.. Sheath helping them along he
voted against them. During the ses-
sion of 1907 he didn't introduce sin
gle revenue bill, didn't open his mouth
to speak in favor of any revenue bill
and didn't even vote for the more inn
The Columbian. [volume] (Bloomsburg, Pa.) 1866-1910, 1907-07-18

portant Of those measures The ma
chine to which he had bargained away
his body and soul was opposed to all
the revenue bills and while he main
tained an attitude of "masterful mac
tivity," it is safe to say that he was
against the increase of revenue and
would have voted against all the bills
If his vote had been necessary to COM
pass their defeat.
The truth Of the matter is that the
mnchne which compelled the Finance
Committee of the Senate to stifle the
revenue bills permitted Mr.. Sheath to
support them for party expediency.
There was no use In putting the onus
of defeating such legislation on the
popular branch of the General Assem-
bly, which contained two-thirds Re
publican majority, when it could be
accomplished secretly, expeditiously
and effectively in the Finance Com
mittee of the Senate. Penrose may not
be gifted with the cunning of Quay, or
the craftiness of some others, but he
isn't born idiot. He has some knowl-
edge of the art of pulling the wool over
the eyes Of the public and the way he
managed that little matter would indi-
cate some of the qualities of an expert.
UNFITNESs FOR TREASURER REVEALED
AS Chairman of the House Commit
tee an Appropriations Mr.. Sheath re-
vealed his absolute moral and mental
unftness for the Office of State Treas
urer. He used the office in part to
serve the machine and in part to serve
himself. Both purposes were contrary
to public policy and inimical to popu-
lar interests. He supported absurdly
exorbitant appropriations because it
made him popular with those who
were asking the favors. His prede-
adopted the opposite course. He tried
to cut down the appropriations to the
minimum with the result that his as
sociates in the Legislature hated him
and the machine managers were subse-
quently compelled to force his nomina-
ton for State Treasurer. On the other
hand Sheatz was generous to the meas.
ure of protligacy and his colleagues in
the House demanded his nomination.
1t was waste of energy, of course, for
the machine was for him But the
condition served to fool good many
people and there are some even yet
who imagine that Penrose was coerced
into supporting Sheatz.
There has never been anything more
absurd. Penrose controlled the con-
vention which nominated Sheatz as
completely as he dominated those
which nominated Plummer and Stuart.
In fact he had IA more complete mas
terry of the convention this year, for he

selected the presiding officer, made the
platform and named the Chairman OF
the State Committee without even a
whimper of dissent or protest. If he
had been opposed to Sheath that gen.
tlemau would have had no more chance
for the nomination than the principal
officer of the A. p. A. has to succeed to
the throne Of the Pope Of Rome. Sheath
was Penrose's candidate and he is Pen
roses man. If he is elected the Office
will be used to promote Penrose's re-
turn to the Senate as certainly as 1t

Seven bushels of wheat in a pile
looks rather large for the average
person to eat, yet the per capita
consumption of wheat for the year
1907 is estimated by the statistic
ians of the United States Depart
ment of Commerce and Labor at
that figure for this year. In 1901
we were satisfied with about four
bushels apiece in the United States.

A healthier, heartier, happier man than
John J. Neill, of 2437 North Sth ST., Phila-
delphia, could not be found ina days search.
The fact that he is still alive is a constant
wonder TO his friends.
Several years ago he began to suffer in
describable miseries from stone in the blad-
der. An eminent physician in Philadelphia
sold him that a surgical operation was nee
essary. So much did he dread the result
for if unsuccessful it meant death, that he
put off the evil day as long as possible.
While in this frame of mind, he heard of
