Professional The funeral will take sea shore express at W. ty, but have steadily stuck to what they-consider for the best interest of the county. Is Air. Young's word reliable? One year ago Mr. Fleck was an applicant for this appointment and Mr.

Young begged him to withdraw and promised him he would not be an applicant again, but would support him Fleck for the place. Mr. Fleck withdrew and now we see how Mr. Young is keeping his word. Again, at the December meeting of the board Mr.

Young notified the board of directors that he would not be an applicant for the stewardship if Dr. Brotherline was reappointed physician. He was promptly answered that Dr. Brotherline would be reappointed and he was reappointed last Tuesday fey the unanimous vote of the board, which was a just recognition of the faithful service rendered in the past.

The dogma of states rights was strangled on the battle fields of the civil war and gave its last gasp at Appomattox Court House. There is no longer a spirit of intense jealousy existing between the smaller and the larger states. Before the war, when a South Carolina school boy was asked, "What is your native country?" he replied, "South Carolina." Now, in any part of the republic, the lad answers a similar question by saying, "I am a native of the United States." The spirit of nationality is dominant; the national house of repre WE ARE ABLE TO SAY Now that we are doing an immense business. None will rise up to dispute this.

In consequence the paper mill of Morrison Cass was compelled to shut down and will so continue until clear water again assumes sway, as the latter commodity enters largely into their product.

Eds. Tribune: There are some citizens of Blair county who have had as favorable ODDortunities for observation as you and "your correspondents who have recently fa vored the public with so many complimentary notices of the present steward of the almshouse, who do not share the indigna tion which is said to exist over the possible election of another steward and who would like to have certain questions answered touching Mr.

Young's "efficient" manage ment, as follows: 1. Did not the present steward say that under certain circumstances he would not serve another term, and do not think those circumstances exist 2. Is the following bill, which was pre sented to the board of poor directors at the last meeting an indication of the manner in which the present steward believes the taxpayers of Blair county should fit out their paupers almshouse, January 1, isyu. To F. W.

Morton, August 5, to llj yd. ribbon, 25c 44 loc zs 3Jyd $3 13 $3 85 3. Is it true that a merchant in Holli- daysburg has purchased butter from the almshouse during the year 18S9 to the value of $56.21, no return of which has ever been made to the directors of the. poor 4. Is it true that a young girl who had been most foully wronged and whose testi mony, it it had ever reached a court ot justice, would have sent some persons to the penitentiary, was removed from the alms house during the absence of the steward, and that he had been cautioned to prevent such removal? 5.

Is it true that the whole return from the county farm the last year was between $1,100 and $1,200, and that $600 of this came from the quarry? If so, where does that $900 worth of wheat come in 6. Is it true that the orders of the board about holding religious services at the alms house have been largely disregarded, and the present steward is opposed to such services When these questions are satisfactorily answered, some others equally pertinent may be asked. Querist, Hollidaysburg, January 11. retain a faithful servant. Eds.

Tribune: The movement on the part of Director McKee and a few parties in and around Hollidaysburg to enect the re moval of Mr. Philip loung from his posi tion as steward of the almshouse is certainly undeserving of success, and we sincerely xniBt-tinrt John A. Crawfuid, will be unwilling to turn out a good and tried man (and who has failed this difficult position with so much credit and success) for one who is untried and has had no experience. We have failed to hear of a single good reason why Mr. loung should be dismissed.

On the contrary we Know ol many reasons why he should be re tained. Never before in the history of our county has the state board of charities made special mention of an almshouse, and yet they especially commend in their report Steward Young as one of the best in the state, and our county alms house as one of the best models of its kind in the commonwealth. Surely a public servant should not be dismissed "after earning for his county a character like this, and a commendation such as we never re ceived before. Let anyone visit the alms house now who visited it years ago and he cannot fail to note the difference. You do not meet that old, ugly, foul almshouse and jail smell that used to meet you as soon as you were oyer the door step.

It is all gone. You hear no more scandals about the treatment of pau pers and the conduct of the inmates, such as could be heard years ago. iSever in the his tory of the county has the farm done so well and the expenses been so light in propor tion to the number of people fed and kept in the house. J. he reports speak for them selves, and we know that Mr.

John Loudon knows whereof he speaks when he says we can get no better man than Mr. Young for the position and no better stewardess than Mr. Young's most excellent wife. We advise Director McKee to drive slow in the matter. The taxpayers have their eyes on the almshouse and they want no experiment ing at their expense.

The flimsy story set afloat on Hollidaysburg on Saturday is unworthy of belief and will return to plague its inventor, lhe urand Army men of Hoi lidaysburg, at their public meeting, spoke in no uncertain terms of their endorsement of their comrade, and when such men as S. C. Tussey, J. A. Calvin, Trevan Buck, G.

P. Kelley and their comrades endorse a man's fitness for a position they are not idle words but mean what they say The endorsement given Mr. Young by these men will find a hearty response irom every tirand Army man and post in the country. most earnestly hope that Mr. Crawford will not allow himself to be persuaded insignificant few to oust a good and tried public servant against the wishes of nine- teen-twentieths ot his constituents.

One Who Knows. TYEONE TOPICS. Dr. W. H.

Crawford, of Bell wood, was in town yesterday. He is a victim of the "la grippe." Six hundred and twenty-four loaded coal cars were part of the output on the Tyrone division on Friday and owing to la grippe it was not a good day, either. Annie, a 14-months-old daughter of Wil- lard and Mattie Irvin died at the home of the parents in Bell wood yesterday morning at 10.30 of catarrhal pneumonia. The installation of the officers of the Wo man's Relief corps and Colonel D. M.

Jones post, Grand Army of the Republic, will take place on Tuesday evening, the 14th, and not Monday, as stated. Frank Crawford, the very efficient and accommodating assistant baggage-master at this place, has severed his connection and will enter a commercial college at Jjima, Ohio, where he will take a course of business instruction. The corner of Logan and Clearfield streets, in the locality of the First Presbyte rian church, was selected on riday evening at about 11 o'clock, by some half dozen men under the influence of liquor to settle their disputes. The time and place were illy fitted for their orgies and, as their names are known, they should be brought to account. The funeral yesterday morning of John Logan who died from injuries received at the paper mill, was largely attended.

At the service in the Methodist church fully one thousand persons were present. The members of the Junior Order of United American Mechanics and Independent Order of Odd Fellows, of which orders the deceased had been a member, were out in full force. The road leading to the cemetery is in a fearful condition. Virginia Blair Moore, daughter of George W. and Co roline Tussey Moore, died at 4 30 p.

m.on Saturday, January 11, at the home of the parents at Horse Shoe Mines, near Kittanning Point. The child was 22 months old and died of congestion of the brain. sentatives is sufficient to represent the lawmaking branch of the government, and if the people cannot in any other way prevent the concentration of wealth in the sen. ate, to the exclusion of merit, you will presently see them agitating on behalf of a constitutional amendment providing for its abolition. There are some passages in Dr.

Tal-mage's sermon which will be found on the third page of this issue of the Tkibune which are commended to the earnest consideration of parents of young children. Elderly people will realize the truth of these words much more vividly than young parents to whom family government is as yet an experiment. The mistake which is. usually made in the training of childhood is to put off until some future time what ought to be done to-day. Education should begin with birth in fact it does so begin, for the child begins to learn before it is twenty-four hours old.

The critical period in the life of an immortal is usually the first ten years, and if during the first five it is trained to habits of cheerful obedience and taught to respect authority, to love truth, to hate falsehood, the battle has been well nigh won. But scores of parents, to their subsequent grief and confusion, act upon an exactly opposite principle. They give the child great latitude in its baby days they permit it to be harassed and annoyed and teased by foolish visitors, its "smartness" may be displayed, they laugh at its petty displays of temper and yield to its importunities, declaring that after while, when it is older and has more sense, they will bring it up with a round turn, put it under discipline and train it up in the way in which it should go. But the days and years go swiftly by and the child beccmes more and more the victim of its appetites, its passions, its devices, while the influence and authority of the parent wax even feebler and feebler, until the last appearance of restraint is abandoned and the child becomes the governor of its parents. This is the story of hundreds of families in which the hearts of the parents are wrung with bitter grief while the child of their affection spurns their authority and laughs at their counsel.

There was a time when the heart of the child was soft and his will pliable. He was open to every good influence, but that time had passed away forever. Family government? to be of any use, must begin in inraucy Thus, begun, there will never be any need for tha exhibitiorLof arbitrary and. tyranical authority, which is as fatal as too much indulgence. The parental love, continuously exerted will shield the child and he will grow up an honor and a delight to the mother who bore him and a useful citizen, VOIOE OF THE PEOPLE.

MR. young's qualifications. Editors Tribune: All honor to John Loudon as a director of the poor, was the common sentiment of this entire community after perusing your, editorial of Thursday morning, announcing the vote of the board of directors for steward, at their meeting on Tuesday the 7th dire and dreadful were the maledictions and vituperations heaped upon the heads of the other two members of the board, consigning them to political oblivion and relegating them to "innocuous desuetude" for all time to come. Now we people have nought to say unkind of the other applicants for the position, nor dispute their right to seek the same, yet, in our opinion, the necessity for change in this most important position has not arisen. Philip Young and wife as steward and matron of our almshouse have had the ap proval and indorsement of the visitors of the state board of charities, the local board of like character, the members of the com mittee forming the state association of directors of the poor, and no committee of ladies representing the charitable organizations of our county, than whom there are no more severe critics, have ever visited this home for the poor and unfortunate, without being' cordial and earnest in their emphatic approval of the manner in which all their duties have been discharged.

So we are led to ask, why is this attempt made to remove such a faithful public servant: Fitness for the position having been irre futably established, then there is another potent reason for the retention of Mr. Young. He was one of those who rallied to the support of his country and his country's flag. when they were imperiled by our sectional strife, and hence deserves more than ordi nary support from the board of directors and 'tis more than probable that if this uniustin able removal should be attempted the Grand Army boys might have something to say, and if they do, 'twill be no unmeaning sound or silly twaddle. From our knowledge of the majority of these old soldiers they do not brook or tolerate political treachery to be practiced that will bring in jury to a deserving comrade.

Gentlemen, heed the demand of public opinion; let the interests of the taxpayers. the welfare of the poor and unfortunate, the sense of justice and right predominate and enable you to retain this faithful official or else yielding to unjust and undeserved prej udice created by chicanery prompt you to do that which will bring upon you merited condemnation and prove to be your political death, lours, Jf air Flay, Roaring Spring, January 10. the steward question. Eds. Tribune: This question has reached such publicity through the efiorts of Mr.

Young, Mr. Loudon and friends to retain Mr. Young in the position that a little his tory of the case may be of interest to the public. One year ago the board of poor di rectors, as at present constituted, delayed the appointment of a steward for several months because they did not consider Mr. Young as competent to discharge the duties of the position as they desired, and finally failing to agree upon another man he was retained.

Last summer the directors all agreed that a change in the stewardship was necessary and demanded for reasons which they all recognized as conclusive. They agreed upon a well-known and worthy citizen of Logan township for the place, as he is well qualified in every way to fill the position, and he agreed to accept the appointment. One month ago this man withdrew his name, through Mr. Loudon. Mr.

Loudon has until lately been in favor of a change. Now, why has so suddenly changed his mind and espoused the cause of Mr. loungf Is Mr. lounga more willing tool for him to handle than a new man would be Messrs. Crawford and McKee aer both "honest men and true," and know ing Mr.

Young to be no more fit for the place, have refused to ratify his reappoint ment to gratify a certain ex-boss from Hol-lidaysburg who claimed the credit for pass ing all the good laws that nave ever been passed by the Pennsylvania legislature and having made all the appointments and nom inations of competent omcials lor the coun 3Sormnari6une. ALTOONA, JANUARY 13, 1S90, The Reading railroad company was within its right when it issued a peremptory order compelling its brakemen and baggagemen to shave off their beards, bnt its action was a bit of petty tyranny which does not go down well in a republican country. Besides, the magnate who issued this foolish order sets himself up to be wiser than the Creator who provided men with beards, certainly for a wise purpose. And it is known that there are hundreds of weak-throated men who are compelled, sometimes much against their inclinations, to wear beards. All such who are in the service of the Reading railroad company must look elsewhere for employment or run the risk of sickness and death.

The objection to Senator-elect Brice and other men of wealth who are rapidly making the United States senate an aristocratic club is not that they are rich, but that they have no qualification for the exalted position to which they have been elected, and that they owe their election, not to their ability and patriotism, but to their money. To oppose a man simply because he is a millionaire is absurd as well as unjust, and no right-thinking American would be guilty of such folly. But the people have a right to complain when those who have never displayed the most rudimentary sign of statesmanship are elevated over the heads of able citizens and to shape our government and fashion our laws, and if they failed to complain it would be a sign that they are far gone on the road to national decadence. The fatal illness of the infant king of Spain has attracted more interest itfEurope than any other event of the past week, and various rumors are afloat as to what the Spanish people will do when the baby king is gone and his sister, Mercedes, aged 9, ascends the throne. It is the opinion of the London correspondent of the New York Times that the republic will not be proclaimed, or that if an attempt to do so is made will fail.

M. Castellar, the great republican statesman of Spain, has come to the conclusion that his countrynaeiLare ncrt yet prepared for self-government, and he has abandoned the hope of a republic in his lifetime, though he means to keep up the process of education. As to Don Carlos, it is believed he will be easily checked should he raise the standard of rebellion, while the suggestion is thrown out that his son may eventually marry the young queen and thus settle several difficulties. The 'Tribune, after diligent inqiury, sees no sufficient reason for the effort to remove Philip Young from the office of Stewart of the almshouse. According to the testimony of a very large majority of those who have some knowledge of the matter he has been a faithful and competent officer and in such an important place the board would scarcely do its duty by the public were it to oust him and put an untried man in his place.

While we have every confidence in the honesty and integrity of the members of the board and take no stock in the rumors of "bargain and sale" which have been made public by democratic newspapers, our confidence in their wisdom would receive a severe shock should the effort to oust Mr. Young succeed. In this position we are satisfied that we represent the views of nine-tenths of the taxpayers of Blair county. The communications in the "Voice of the People" simply represent their author. The reader will mark the contrast between those advocating the retention of Mr.

Young and those suggesting his removal, and conclude that here is an other illustration of the truth that a weak cause always resorts to insinuation and personal abuse. We desire to call the attention of the teachers and pupils of the public schools of Altoona and Blair county to the following facts: The Youths' Companion in its issue of January 9 asks the. privilege of floating an American flag (at its own expense) over one public school house in each of the forty-two states. The scholars in any of our public schools, wishing to secure the flag for their school, can compete for it in the following manner: They are invited to write an essay, of not more than GOO words in length, on "The Patriotic Influence of the American Flag When Raised Over the Public Schools." These essays are to be handed to their teacher for examination. The essay selected by the teacher as the best may be forwarded to the Youth's Companion on or before April 1, 1890.

Each essay sent us must be accompanied by the name of the school, the author, and the town and state. The school in each state sending us the best essay on the subject will receive from us, free of all expense, a regulation bunting flag, nine by fifteen feet in size forty-two stars. The awards will be made as soon after April 1 as season for the schools to dedicate the flags on the Fourth of July, 1890. As soon as the award of flags has been made The Youth's Companion will publish the names of the schools receiving them, also the names of the writers of the essays. The address of The Youth's Companion is Boston, Mass.

The British house of lords, which once exercised almost unlimited power, has in these days fallen into such disrepute that few are found to do it reverence, and the agitation in favor of it's abolition gains volume with every passing year. Its fall is inevitable. Our own national senate, which was modeled upon the house of lords, and which was constituted out of deference to the intense states rights feeling which existed when the union was formed, has grown more aristocratic every year until it has been almost bereft of statesmen and the majority of its members are men who owe their elevation to their great wealth, and are out of sympathy with the common people and banded together for the protection 33u Our New $85 Solid Gold Watch Free.
