Colburn Window Glass Machines.

From the Scientific American we clip
the following concerning the Colburn
window glass machines:
"By far the most systematic and
painstaking study which has been made
OF the whole problem, we owe to Mr..
Irving w. Colburn, OF Franklin, Pa.
He has attacked it from every conceiv-
able side, expended large sums in
experimenting; built and destroyed
machine after machine, and after ten
years has at last built the first CONNER
cial successful apparatus for drawing
sheet glass OF any reasonable width
and OF any desired thickness, surface
and polish. At the Franklin plant there
are no gatherers, blowers, snappers or
fatteners. The cutters and the superin-
tendent are the only skilled men en-
.ployed, and the cutters will some day
give way to automatic devices. With
three men and six boys more and better
glass is made by the machine than can
be made by thirty-nine men with the
cylinder process. AT present the plant
is running twenty-four hours day,
three shifts OF eight hours each. The
six cutters employed cannot keep pace
with the output, for which reason more
cutting tables are being installed"

ROUTE THROUGH THIS PLACE
Seems Very Probable if Press
Reports That Trains will
be Running Before the Snow
Flies are Correct.

Contractors are looking forward to
renewal of work on the Franklin &
Clearfield railroad and it is expected
that bids for at least part of the con-
struction of the line east OF Coder, 1.-THE
present terminus OF the line two miles
west Of Brook ville,. will be acted on,
says the Dubois Express. Several Pitts
burg firms have submitted bids on some
OF the heavy work, though at what
location is no. stated. The announce
ment has been made at the Cleveland
headquarters that building would be
resumed this summer and that that
portion OF the line between Franklin
and Brookville would be in operation
by fall. The same. source also says the
Vanderbilts will be running trains over
the new road into Cleveland before the
snow flies. II this latter statement
is true it means that the f. & G. in
tends to use the tracks of the Pennsyl-
vania and B. r. & p. from Brookville
east, as it will require two years to
make a roadbed over the mountains.

The event OF the out Of door amuse-
ment season In this vicinity will be the
appearance OF Buffalo Bills Wild West
and Congress OF Rough Riders Of the

counties and held up pictures of Amer
lean history before the gaze OF delighted
thousands, who then for the first time
gained their first intimate idea OF early
life in the far west Buffalo Bill travels
with the exhibition, personally directs
the performances and participates
in some of the big Indian battles,
enacting In one instance the roll he
originally created, In 1862 at the
battle of Summit Springs. In this
scene one hundred Indians participate,
and the real red-men OF the plains also
appear In IA Holiday at TIE Ranch"
and "An Attack on an Emigrant
Train" These big scenes of Indian
depredations are the principal historic
features Of the show, but the Rough
Riders comprise another part OF the
entertainment equally interesting
and equally instructive. There will
be riders from all nations, Cossacks,
Arabians, South Americans, Japanese,
Germans, English and our own Amer
lean cowboy, best type of the dauntless
horsemen. Bucking ponies, trained
horses and number OF acrobatic dis
plays and feats of horsemanship. And
at every performance, rain or shine,
the original and only Buffalo Bill will
be in the saddle, leading his care
conquering hosts.

Fears determination of Seals.

"The Alaskan fur seal herd is being

ing vessels. mainly Canadians" said
Prof. David Starr Jordan. These
sailing vessels follow the seal herd as
1t moves along our Pacific coast in the
spring, and enters Bering sea at the
end Of the close season in August,
when they are free, under the inef.
fectual regulations adopted by the
Paris tribunal, to use the spear-more
deadly than the shotgun-in killing,
outside of the 60-mile zone, the seals
that frequent these waters in pursuit
Of food. AS these seals are mainly
females that have brought forth their
young on the Pribilof islands, the kill.
ing of the mother seals results in the
starvation of the young upon the land,
and the inevitable rapid extinction OF
the fur seal herd Unless something
is done for the protection of the seal
herds, within five years not only the
Alaskan but also the Russian seal
herds will be completely exterminated
and deprive this country of valuable
source of revenue and the world of
great boon. Washington Herald.

senators is most responsible for the OBJ
struction of reforms. For 100 years after
the adoption of the constitution, the de-
mand for the popular election of senators,
while finding increased expression, did
not become a dominant sentiment A
constitutional amendment had from time
to time been suggested and the matter
had been more or less discussed in a few
of the states, but the movement had not
reached point where it manifested it
self through congressional action. In the
Fifty-second congress. however, reso-
luton was reported from house COM
mittee proposing the necessary constitu-
tional amendment, and this resolution
passed the house of representatives by
q vote which was practically unanimous.
In the Fifty-third congress a similar res
olution was reported to, and adopted by
the house Of representatives. Both the
Fifty second and Fifty-third congresses
were Democratic. The Republicans gained
control Of the house as result of the
election of 1894 and in the Fifty-fourth
congress the proposition died in commit
tee. AS time went on, however, the SEN
timent grew among the people, until 1t
forced a Republican congress to follow
the example set by the Democrats, and
then another and another Republican
congress acted favorably. State after
state has indorsed this reform, until near
ly two-thirds Of the states have recorded
themselves in its favor. The United
States senate, however, impudently and
arrogantly obstructs the passage of the
resolution, notwithstanding the fact that
the voters Of the United States, by an
overwhelming majority demand it. And
this refusal Is the more significant when
1t Is remembered that number of SEN
ators owe their elections to great corpor-
ate interests. Three Democratic nation
al platforms-the platforms Of 1900, 1904
and 90S-specifically call for change in
the constitution which will put the elec-
ton of senators in the hands Of the v6A
tiers, and the proposition has been in
dorsed by number Of the smaller par
ties, but no Republican national con-
vsntion has been willing to champion

Of the requirements Of the situation. He

Of the requirements Of the situation. He
says: "
IF am elected president, shall urge
upon congress, with every hope of sue
cess, that a law be passed requiring the
filing, in a federal Office, of a statement
of the contributions received by COM
mittees and candidates in elections for
members of congress, and in such other
elections as are constitutionally within
the control Of congress"
!. 1 shall not embarrass him by asking
him upon what he bases his hope of sue
cess; it is certainly not on any encour-
agement he has received from Republican
leaders It IL sufficient to say that II
his hopes were realized-if, in spite OF the
adverse action of his convention, he
should succeed In securing the enactment
of the very law which he favors, it would
give but partial relief. He has read the
Democratic platform; not only his Ian
guage, but his evident alarm indicates
that he has read 1t carefully. He even
had before him the action of the Demo-
cratic national committee in interpreting
and applying that platform; and yet he
fails to say that he favors the publication
of the contributions before the election.
OF course, it satisfies natural curios-
ity to find out how an election has been
purchased even when the knowledge
comes too late to be Of service, but why
should the people be kept in darkness

Fasting In Wilderness Necessary.
50 long as the Republican party re-
mains In power, 1t is powerless to re-
generate itself. 1t can not attack wrong
doing in high places without disgracing
many Of its prominent members, and 1t.
therefore, uses opiates instead of the
surgeons knife. Its malefactors coLstrue
each Republican victory as an indorse-
ment Of their conduct and threaten the
party with defeat II they are interfered
with. Not until that party passes through
q period of fasting in the wilderness,
will the Republican leaders learn to
study public questions from the stand
point Of the masses. Just as with in
dividuals, ''the cares Of this world and
the deceitfulness OF riches choke the
truth" so in politics. when party lead
ers serve far away from home and are
not in constant contact with the voters.
continued party success blinds their eyes
to the needs Of the people and makes
them deaf to the cry of distress.
Publicity a. to Campaign contribu-
tions.
An effort has been made to secure legis-
lation requiring publicity as TO campaign
contributions and expenditures; but the
Republican leaders. even in the face Of
an indignant public, refused to consent
to law which would compel honesty in
elections. When the matter was brought
up in the recent Republican national
convention, the plank was repudiated by
q vote of $50 to "a. Here, too, Mr.. Taft
has been driven to apologize for his con-
vention and to declare himself in favor
of publicity law; and yet, II you will
read what he says upon this subject, you
will find that his promise falls far short
