An Old Man

Micajah Weiss, the oldest pension
err in the United States, died a short
time ago at his home in Beaver Brook,
Sullivan county, New York, of in
firmities incident to his advanced age.
He was in the Hath year Of his age
and probobly the oldest man in New
York. He was born at Dancing Creek
in Monroe county Pennsylvania, and
was one of family of nine children.
The early. part of his life was spent
along Delaware river in numbering
and farming. For forty-five years he
was q resident of Beaver Brook.
where he carried on an extensive lum-
Der business. In his rafts-days he
would frequently walk back from
Trenton to Beaver Brook, more than
100 miles, long before rail. ,ads were
constructed. He had been known to
drive q four-horse load Of venison
down Delaware valley to Trenton. In
August, 1862, Mr.. Weiss enlisted in a
regiment of Pennsylvania volunteer
infantry and served until the close of
the war in 1865. Mr.. Weiss was not
teetotaler, taking glass of wine
or other stimulant when he thought he
needed it. When he returned from
the fiftieth anniversary of the battle
Of Gettysburg in July. 1918, he stop
ped off in New York City and visited
the late General Daniel E. Sickels.

The local republican candidates who
were defeated, Chas. F. Hoag, Burr T.
Beachel, H. C. Byrnes and DIR. E. E.
Bartlett, all deserve the highest praise
and consideration for their course in
the campaign. Realizing at the start
that it was practically hopeless fight
they permitted their names to be used
Us candidates because the party call
ed them and needed good men to COM
plete its ticket and to effect thor

them made an active campaign they
gave their services freely to the party
and all proved their worth as unset

nounced that he felt proud Of their
work during the past year as they
had displayed a versatility unheard
Of in the history Of politics. They had
been more things to more people than
three hundred other voters could pos

distinction of seeing the shadows Of

he had not wanted and would not
have had the Office at all. 1t had been

A Republican landslide

Early returns indicate that the
great democratic boon of European
war was not sufficient to prevent q
practically nationwide expression Of
dissatisfaction with the present ad-
ministration. The experts who will
hold an autopsy will advance many
theories as to the cause, but the
average man will look upon it as a
rebuke of the Underwood tariff, her
aided as the best ever written when
it was new, even as other acts OF the
Sixty-third Congress have been Civ
en- speculative praise before being
tried. The grinding hard times, which
began long before the outbreak of
the European war, were attributed to
the operations of the tariff. The man
who has lost his job shows little pa
thence with the rhetoric of an eco
nomic dreamer. The people pros
pered under the last Republican tar
if and they have suffered under the
present democratic tariff, even as
they always have. The full dinner
pail is still more interesting that fine
phrases.
The president was made the issue
in every state. For the first time in
history the political textbook Of
major party made distinctlyely re-
ligious appeal. The front cover of
the handbook issued by the demo-
cratic congressional committee bore
the bold inscription: Thank God For
Wilson" Every congressional can
didate bore the presidential indorse-
ment. Every democratic sreaxer and
and every democratic newspaper used
"Stand up for Wilson" as the chief
slogan. No other president within
the memory Of living men has been
so generously treated by the press.
His personality has been engaging.
His public utterances have been
couched in faultless English. He has
made a special appeal to the writers
an Eastern newspapers and weekly
periodicals.. But craftsmanship is
really an intensely practical matter.
We have had occasion from time to
time to remark. often bringing down
on our heads the criticism of his To-
cal idolators thereby, that the presi-
dent has but one momentous piece Of
legislation to his credit which has
been tried. All the rest Of his laws
are INFESTED experiments. The coun-
try has apparently rendered a more
decisive verdict on the operation of
his only bit of tested legislation than
we had anticipated.
This is a republican nation. The
sentiment is overwhelmingly for 4
protective tariff. This has been DEM
onstrated at numerous elections, in
GLIDING that Of 1912. although the re-
publican division that year permitted
the minority to trump at the polls.
The protective tariff sentiment is ev-
en- greater than has ever appeared in
election returns. owing to certain Pc
culiar conditions in the south having
caused the people Of that section to
vote against their own interests and
their private beliefs. That thousands
of Southerners have voted the demo-
