HARMAN, of Columbia County. DEMOCRATIC COUNTY TICKET For Director of Poor J. T. ANDERSON, Bedford Township. 4.

For County Surveyor GEORGE W. BLACKBURN, GEORGE W. BLACKBURN, New Paris. Some of our modern magnates of High Finance are beginning to learn that a pitcher may be carried so often Ito the well that it may break at' last. In the opinion of Henry Clews, a well-known New York financier, there is a vast deal of prosperity in Jand but it is not very equally distributed, a point upon which many weople will agree with him.

'The operations with the street railway treasurers in New York and Philadelphia indicated that the actors have no need of false to the safes, dark lanterns, sledge hammers or dynamite. The heaviest blow yet delivered to third term movement comes from the venerable George F. Edmunds, Ex-United States Senator Vermont, now a citizen of Mr. Edmunds says President Roosevelt is "too honest a man to establish so dangerous a precedent." In fact, while a clear and distinct voice like that of Ex-Senator Edmunds occasionally arises, and while the masses of the people are silent, nine-tenths of the third term promoters are officeholders and flatterers of power. JOHN O.

SHEATZ AND THE MACHINE When John O. Sheatz of Philadelphia was nominated for State Treasurer it was assumed by many wellmeaning people that it was an act of penitence for the many iniquities and delinquencies of machine as well as a concession to decent public opinion. By most others the was regarded as a familiar artifice to decoy honest and unwary voters by putting on a mask of political virtue. What was clear to all men is that the nomination was made by the combination of spoilsmen of whom United States Senator Penrose is the chieftain. In other words, without this combination, with its solid delegations from Philadelphia, Allegheny county and other quarters of the state, Mr.

Sheatz could not have been the Republican candidate for State Treasurer. of that there can be no reasonable doubt But a nearer examination of the legislative record of the candidate, such as every citizen should make before he casts his vote, shows that the boast of his independence of machine influences has nothing sub-stantial to sustain it. He voted for the bill to muzzle newspaper press of the state which was denounced by every journal in the land. The vote on this bill was, and is, justly regarded as a test of independence and character in the representative, John O. Sheatz miserably failed to meet it.

He voted for a bill to grant to a gang of promoters the right of emipent domain over the Susquehanna and all the streams that flow into it Kinchding the Raystown branch of the Juniata,) which would have created a vast monopoly of water power at the expense of the people. In order to escape from responsibility for this act he has explained that he voted solitary and alone against the Susquehanna Canal bill, quite a different thing, which has not been called in question. So slippery an evasion is unworthy of a candidate for any office, not to speak of the office of State Treasurer of Pennsylvania. He voted on the report of a prevaricating Committee of Elections to eject in the last day of the session of 1903, a fairly elected member of the House from Cameron county so as to give an importunate creature of the machine $1,500 salary, mileage and emoluments. So gross was this outrage that the Republican chairman of the Committee of Elections, McCarthy, the present Speaker McClain, and other prominent Republicans earnestly protested against it.

Not so with John 0. Sheatz who went with the rest of the machine banditti from Philadelphia to flagrantly violate the rights of representation He voted for an act which made it an easy thing for the state capitol grafters, with the connivance of the machine Board of Public Buildings, to rob the treasury of millions of money. He voted, in fine, at machine dictation for every job to create useless official bureaus, to swell salaries already too high, and to make sinecures as mere nests of idleness. Upon these and other evidences of the record the citizen who votes for John O. Sheatz must own that he does not possess the independence of character and the freedom from baleful machine influences to make him a fit successor of William Berry in the office of State Treasurer.

This citizen must confess that in preferring Sheatz to a man of the sterling qualities of John G. Harman, the Democratic candidate, he puts party above the highest considerations of public welfare. Saxton October 17-P. A. Barnett and son leit today for a business visit to Harrisburg.

IN OLD KENTUCK Big, Tobacco Crop--The Labor Problem-A Modern Horse A Bowling Green, Sunday, October 13, 1907: This is a nasty, cold day with a fine rain falling at times, not much, is true, and as I am neither sugar nor salt I doubt if it would hurt me much to go out. Still I am comfortable here in my room, No.

11 in. "Pop" Webb's very popular hotel. I have a neat gas stove going and have not been out of the house but once today and that was this morning to get a Sunday paper. Travel seems so great all around that I have gotten into the habit of writing days ahead for a room for Sunday when I expect to be at a certain place. There are not enough hotels in the south nor are they large enough.

At Harrodsburg, a town of 4,000 people, it is crowded every night from sky the Commercial is the only hotel and parlor to cellar. 'Tis not booze that takes the boys there for that was voted out a year ago and the merchants say that since the public sale of booze has been stopped their customers pay their bills much more promptly and more cheerfully than at any time in which rum was sold in the town. -This town of Bowling Green was voted dry last May and the same story is told here. The great temperance wave that only a few years or months ago south has done wonders and the wave is now rolling against the gates and walls behind which the booze men of cities like Chattanooga and Memphis stand. My prediction is that both these cities will, by popular vote, go dry soon.

My! I wish that I had my overcoat with me. The tobacco crop'in this state was cut and housed during a spell of weather that was ideal for the business. The crop is one of the largest ever raised in the state; quality fine and price fair: There was considerable difficulty get laborers to cut it; however, "many Polish women went into the fields and received the same wages as the men (two dollars a day), provided they could do as much work, and did in most cases. These Polish women seem to be as hardy as the men. I have often seen them in winter at various places in the hard coal felds of barefooted, 'and toting water, with snow.

on the ground. The great problem of securing help in this southern country is a hard one to solve. Negro girls that formerly got a dollar a week, now demand. two and a basket of grub to take home at night. In this way they get enough to keep their own famtlies.

The farm hand that several years ago was willing and even glad get employment seven dollars a month and his rations which then consisted of a peck of meal, three pounds of meat and a pint of molasses, now demands ffteen dollars a month with a half holiday on' Saturday 80 he can go to town. He has also added to his ration list half a pound of tobacco, half a pound of coffee and a box of snuff. So that you see the help prob-4lem is not one so easily solved. As this is the racing season in old Kentuck, one hears but little else than racing. Many of the horses in this state, more especially in the blue grass section, are more carefully housed and cared for than the children.

In Louisville the other day I visited a horse tent where three horses were housed. There was hot and cold water, a range on which to cook. horses' soft mashes, various kinds of house plants standing about and real oriental rugs spread on the floors. A perfect palace. I asked where the hair top mattresses for them to sleep on were kept.

Highball, about whom I wrote you last week, did not start at Lexington; he was lame. I have failed to get a paper for two weeks. Please send next week's me at Hotel Clarenden, Memphis, Tenn. My next week's work will be in Arkansas. M.

P. Heckerman. AN APPEAL TO PASTORS The Prison Society asks Co-operation of Church and Press. At the National Prison Congress held in Cleveland, September 22- 26, 1900, a Standing Committee was appointed to promote the observance in the churches of the United States of the last Sunday in October of each year as Prison Sunday. To further this movement in the Keystone state, the Pennsylvania Prison Society has constituted a committee which now makes its appeal to the clergymen and churches of the state, asking the press to co-operate.

Experience in other states has demonstrated that the observance of Prison Sunday is of great utility and leads to beneficent results. ened views on crime and criminals, the causes and prevention of crime, the protection of the young, the proper methods of dealing with criminals and discharged convicts, etc, are inculcated 'and thus public opinion is not only molded in the right direction but an number of persons become actively interested in preventive and reformatory work. Rectors and pastors are therefore requested, on October 27, to preach on the general subject of crime and criminals, noting that there are fully 100,000 convicts now in the reformatories, prisons, and penitentiaries of the United States; that the majority of these are under thirty years of age, that juvenile crime is on the increase; that three-fourths of the criminal class come from the neglected, abandoned, defective and delinquent children who are permitted to grow up without proper training; that this class is at least ten times larger than the number of convicts in confinement at any one time; and that about half of the convicts confined in our penal institutions have been imprisoned before In its work in behalf of prisoners the society annually expends about $6,000 and would greatly appreciate cash donations from churches, societies and individuals, either on Prison Sunday or at any other convenient time, sent to the General Secretary, John J. Lytle, 500 Chestnut street, Philadelphia.
