SLIP BETWEEN" CUP ASD LIP(TOS) Belying reliability relieved to rellantly rely on tho reliable Kellance In the repeated race, Because barring borrowing barful barriers, Captia Ban- would make barren ban-leaden to bis bark, Which writhing winds and wrinkllu' water would wring for Captain Wrlngc to wry na with Swiftly and smoothly sailing shamless Shamrock sans shame and shambling about Handy Hook shore, Limiting lilpton to letup lifting to his lips the likeable loveabie cup. We approve the Bourse of out Senator und Representatives in our last Legislature and commend them for their efforts, to produce such legislation as tbey believed to be for the best interests of their constituents. Committees on resolutions do not draft resolutions. Tbey simply consider resolutions already prepared and submitted to them. Aa a Republican said, because of the COMPILER'S criticisms of the records of Senator HcPherson and Representatives Seabrook and Bitlinger something had to be said.

These parties were on band to see to it that it was said. The easiest thing was said in the easiest way. It damns with faint praise. The convention did not dare to resolve in plain language that the votes of their Representatives against the teachers minimum salary bill were approved of, that their votes to give the Machine more control of elections in cities were approved of, that their votes creating hundreds of new offices at Harrisbnrg were approved of, that the votes of Senator McPherson on bills condemned and vetoed by the Governor were approved of, that the course of Senator McPherson on the trolley bill, even if he violated the constitution in auppoiting it, was approved of, and tbat the votes of the three, on the libel bill, which all over this country, regardless of politics, has been designated as the blackest chapter which has ever been written against American liberty, were approved of. To tave said all this in so many words would have been to have flung an insult into the faces of the intelligent Republl- can voter who thinks for himself and will not blindly be led.

Yet. abat must be thought of a convention" permitting Itself to be made a tool of to beat gunge around toe bush to give Senator McPherson and Seabrook and Bittinger faint praise. Resolutions are supposed to te the issues of a campaign and in this light the above resolution deserves to be resented at the polls this fall by every Republican who thinks for himself.

VERDICT OF CORONER'S JURY. BOSS DEAD-HEAD PAYS HIS FARE When Senator Quay visited Governor Pennypacktr over Sunday he rode as far as Perklomen Junction on his annual pass over the Philadelphia and Heading railway. Tbere the party transferred to the Perklomen Valley railroad, which spans the distance from the junction to Schwenksville. "Tickets," said the conductor on the Perkiomen train. The Senator selected the Heading pasteboard from his Hie of passes.

"No good on thia road," said the conductor. There waa a principle involved, and the Senator strove for it. "Heading passes don't go on the Perkiomen Valley," said the conductor. "You'll have to pay your fare." "What if I refuse said the Senator. "The walking is good," replied the conductor.

The Senator paid. The first railroad fare paid by him, it is said, in 35 years. If he would have paid his fare oftener perhaps be would not be so smerched with the reputation of getting something for nothing. la a Democracy every citizen should pay as be goes, giving value for value. THE DEMOCRATIC STATE TICKET The Democratic State Convention which met in Harriebarg last week did its vork well, giving a platform and candidates which appeal to every citizen who lias the -welfare of the commonwealth at heart.

The platform as given in another column Is a strong and fearless arraignment of the political wrongs THE article on front page, "Passing of an Old Turnpike," calls for some consideration from tte public. The original purpose of turnpikes was supplied to an extent when railroads were built. After that they ceased to be good payiag investments. These old turnpikes are among our beat roads and will always have an important use. The day has however come when these roads should be turned over to the people to be kept in repair by them toll free.

In many cases there is not enough revenue to keep them in repair. They get in a fearful condition, needing the attention a supervisor could give. All over the State tbey are passing back to the people. This passing should not be made the excuse to make the county pay extravagant prices for them. If a turnpike, which cost $100,000 a hundred years ago to build has not paid a dividend to its owners, the stockholders, for a score of years, it Is not worth anything and the owners should only receive a nominal figure.

If a dividend has been occasionally declared or there has been some cause to give the stock a value, the Vc.lue of the turnpike is simply the sum that could be capitalized to yield the dividend. We understand that only a nominal sum will be asked for the York and Gettysburg turnpike, so no difficulties may be expected in that In the future, however, when others pass to the people, the county should not be compelled to pay any flicticious value, nor should any speculation be recognized which would tk give a fictitious value. As these turnpikes come back to the people, it should be at their value, little or nothing, no more. IRON SPRINGS BUBBLES. School Opens With 35 Scholars in Attendance --Personal Notes.

Ooauty of Adams Inquisition taken" at LUtlegtown, In suffered by this State at the hands of tbe Machine. It is a declaration meriting the Indorsement of every voter who believes in a free press, an honest ballot and the equal rights of labor and capital. The candidates personify the platform.

Mr. Dswalt, candidate for Auditor General, led the iuht in the Senate in the spring against the press muzzling bill, and Is a fit opponent of Senator Sayder who championed the bill. Mr. Hill, candidate for State Treasurer was tbe strong and able ally of Senator Cawalt ill Sgbtlng tbe press muzzling bill and in earnestly and persistently opposing all the evil measures of tbe Machine. The nominees for the Superior Court are both lawyers of approved ability and high character.

In short the platform aud ticket could not better represent that overwhelming public sentiment which at the end of the last Legislature condemned tbe Machine responsible for its work. They represent vital issues affecting every person In the State and Invite all honest men without regard to past oarty affiliations to enthusiastically rally to their support aud should bs triumphantly elected. THJ: COST OF SEWEK AS A SCARE CJMMV. The sewer question has been killed in the bouse of ita friends, not because ita friends were opposed to it, but because tbey permitted themselves to be scared out of it. Gettysburg is in fact In better financial condition than it has been for a generation.

It baa successfully carried a debt of from to 120,000 and paying the internet on same and meeting of toe principal each year. The debt is now about $7,000 and interest charges lees than one-half wbat It has been. The borough needs a general sewer system. The preservation of the health of the community demands it. A debt could be created to pay for it which would begin to mature at the ei- plratlon of the payment of the present debt.

The Interest to be met would not be as high as the interest charges the borough hai met in the past. There would be no increase In taxation In this way and the borough would have what tbe public demands-- a general sewer system. The Council voted to go abea-i with it Every paper in tbe town declined itself in favor of the sewsr system. The public wanted It. There was no opposition to a general sewer system from any source.

Notwithstanding all this the council permitted the scare crow of the cost to be worked upon teem, for the ulterior par- pose, as it has been expressed to us, it wUl be built next year or tbe year after, when an element who would not have had a hand in tbe building ot It now will hope to be tn control and have fall possession of the undertaking. In other words the friends of the sewer killed the project for the present by allowing wool to be polled over their eyes by those who want to iralld when control council. The public sentiment and demand fora sewer has been side-tracked (or ibis reason and no other. ARENDTSVIUE NEWS LETTER. Franklin County Apple Man Buys Over 000 Barrels of Apples at $1.25.

VINCENT PREACHES A LABOR DAY SERMON IN EPISCOPAL CHURCH. Takes as His Subject "Jesus the Carpenter" -Notes ol Services in Town and County Churches. In the Memorial Church of the Prince of Peace last Sunday morning Kev. G. G.

Vincent preached an excellent sermon on "Jesus the Carpenter," St. Mark 6: 3. An abstract of his discourse follows: Jesus the Carpenter. St. Mark 6:3.

"Is not this the carpenter The worshippers in the synagogue at Nazareth asked this of one another. The Preacher on that Sabbath epoke wisely and eloquently. They knew Him as a working man, i mechanic, who had helped to build or repair their houses. From His bench in the little shop they had received the commodities which had made living in tbat town more convenient and comfortable. The fact tbat Jesus worked with hands is quite significant.

In America the first Monday in September-is observed as Labor Day. The interests of industry must be emphasized more and more. What shall we think and talk of labor "Labor is holy.

Neglected consumption does not exist where Scott's Emulsion is. Prompt use of Scott's Emulsion checks the disease while it can be checked. Send for free sample.
