And the best Joke of all is that the Jamestown exposition is now advertised as completed!
Taggart's desire to drive the Rev. Kuhn out of politics is about the best recommendation the .Rev. could receive.
Could it be possible that Taft and his "oil on troubled -waters" is really an employe of the Standard Oil company?
If the Rev. Kuhn would only learn to play roulette and drink Pluto water maybe Tom Taggart would support him for governor.
Anyway, that trip of Secretary Taft's will be a great advertisement for the United States, the home of all great advertisers and believers in advertising.
From current reports Japan's idea Df Secretary Taft is of a large man with a dove of peace on either shoulder holding a nozzle out of which he is pouring oil on the troubled wars.
The looters of the street railroads of New York City are in a panic over the Investigation that is tc fce held in the roads they wrecked. These looters are the same men who have howled so long and so lotdly about the damage President Roosevelt has done to "big" business. Looks as though now they would Isave to account for some of the damage they have done to "big" bus-ess.

NOT AFFECTED BY THE PORTED CAR SHORTAGE.
RE-
Any Trouble Is Experienced Locally It Probably Will Come In October or November.
While the car shortage on other railroads Is gradually becoming worse, the Richmond division of the Pennsylvania is but little, if at all, effected by such shortage. The " railroads for the past few years have been unable to keep pace with the great commercial and agricultural advancement and there has always been a slight shortage of cars, but this condition is now being left out of the reckoning when statements are made that there is a car shortage. If the Richmond division is affected materially it will be during the latter part of October and the first of November. Freight is being handled all ever the division with much dispatch and there is not at the present time a .sign of freight congestion.

The passenger officials who were in
Indianapolis Wednesday report having had a very pleasant time with the Indiana State Commission, which pre
sented its views and ideas as regards conducting passenger traffic. There was no radical change In any of the present methods of handling that traffic. Passenger men spoke of the gathering as being a profitable one, and they came to an understanding of
what the wishes of the railroad commission were. No trouble between the passenger officials and the commission is anticipated as the passenger officials show a disposition to conform to the wishes and laws of that organization. PENNSY TO ENLARGE YARDS. The engineering department of the Pennsylvania has taken up plans for improvements to the yards and tracks at Unlontown, to cost about $100,000. The company owns the property necessary to make these improvements,
and it is likely will do the work with its own force. The extension of yards and the new tracks are made necessary by the increased business originating in that district. It is intended to begin work within the next month so that the new tracks will be ready for service this winter. The Pennsyl
vania lines west officials are also considering a large amount of new work. PARTY LEAVES OCT. 13. J. J. Turner, second vice president of the Pennsylvania lines West, who passed through the city Wednesday,
stated that the inspection party or the lines West, owned by the Pennsylvania people, would leave Pittsburg Oct. 13. James McCrea, president of the Pennsylvania system of road, will accompany the party.

INCREASE IN EMPLOYES. Ten years ago our railways were employing 826,620 persons, or 454 to each 100 miles of line. On June 30, 1906, the number of railway employes was 1,521,355. an increase of 694.733, or 84 per cent, the ratio now being 684 employes per 100 miles, an increase of 50.7 per cent in the number of employes per mile of line. Per mile of total track the increase of the number of employes has been 28 per cent; the number was 3.46 per
mile of track in 1896 and 4.43 in 1906. In this period the increase in miles of line was 22.2 per cent and in miles of track 32.6 per cent. The increase in the number of employes per unit of road is one evidence of the rapidly increasing complexity and cost of railway operation. Labor is one of the greatest beneficiaries of railway development, both from increased rates of wages and from increased numbers of employes. AFTER THE MEAT TRADE. The C, C. & L. is catering after the
through meat traffic out of Chicago, and to this end three solid meat trains were run recently, consisting of thirty-two cars each, to Cincinnati. It Is a fight against the established trade of the Pennsylvania, Big Four and Monon, but the short haul of the C, C. & L. Indicates a win. A lack of motive' power alone prevents, accord-
ALL RECORDS BROKEN. All records for the movement of freight in a single day were broken on the lines of the Pennsylvania on Sunday last, when according to figures compiled by the freight -department 8,730 loaded cars passed Lewistown Junction on the middle division during the day. This exceeds all previous records by 362 cars.

can only hit by means of the navy. It is utterly impossible to improvise even a makeshift navy under the conditions of modern warfare. Since the days of Napoleon no war between two great powers has lasted as long as it would take to build a battleship, le t "alone i fleet of battleships: and it takes just
as long to train the crew cf a battleship as it does to build it: and as re
gards the most important thing of all. the training of the officers, it takes much longer. The navy must be built and all its training given in time of peace. When once war has broken out. it is too late to do anything. We now have a good navy, not yet large enough for our needs, but of excellent material. Where a navy is as small as
ours, the cardinal rule must be that
battleships shall not be separated. This year I am happy to say that ve sha'1
begin a course which I hope will be
steadily followed hereafter, that, name-;
ly of keeping the battle-ship fleet alternately in the Pacific and in the At- i
lantic. Early in December the fleet will begin its voyage to the Pacific,
and it will number, friends, among its j formidable fighting craft three great battleships, named, respectively, the ; Illinois, the Missouri, and the Ken-i tucky. It is a national fleet in every i sense of the term, and its welfare
snouid De. and l firmly believe is, as t
much a matter of pride and concern for every man in the farthest interior of our country as for every man on the seacoast. A long voyage is mighty good training; and not the least good it will do will be to show just the points where our naval program needs strengthening. Incidentally I think the voyage will have one good effect, for, to judge by their comments on the movement, some excellent people in my own section of the country need to be reminded that the Pacific coast is exactly as much a part of this nation as the Atlantic coast. A Domestic Polity. So much for foreign affairs. Now for a matter of domestic policy. Here In this country we have founded a great federal democratic republic. It is a government by and for the people
and therefore a genuine democracy; and the theory of our constitution is
that each neighborhood shall be left
to deal with the things that concern only itself and which it can most readily deal with; so that town, count,
city, and state have their respective
spheres of duty, while the nation
deals with those matters which con'
cern all of us, all of the people, no
matter where we dwew. Our demo-

It Was the Deadliest Weapon of the
Ancient Pugilist.
The four ounce glove was unknown
to the ancient pugilist. When thf
boxers and fighters came together in
the old days of Greece they wore up
on their hands the cestus, which was In Itself a terrible adjunct to any fighter. But Dr. Daniel G. Briton dis
covered that there was sometimes attached to the cestus a deadlier weapon, consisting of a three pronged fork
of bronze.
This was known as the myrmex, and
Dr. Brinton, who found this specimen, gave it to the museum of archaeology
In the University of Pennsylvania Classical literature has frequent ref
erences to the myrmex, which Is de
scribed as the deadliest weapon of th ancient pugilist. The right hand was
swathed in tough hide, bound in place with thongs and supplemented by small knobs of lead or Iron, to which
was affixed the myrmex. Dr. Brinton made his discovery In Paris by examining the Greek and Roman marbles in the Louvre. One of these groups represented a fighter bearing on his right fist the cestus and myrmex. Combats In those days were much more brutal and dangerous than those of the modern prize ring. It is easily seen that a single blow of the myrmex might cause death or permanent Injury.
"V THEN a stove manufacturer t T doesn't know how, or doesn't want to spend the money necessary to make an airtight stove, he plugs i:p the cracks with stove putty. Oh yes, that stove will heat as gooI a3 any of them for a few weeks, perhaps. It isn't long, though, befo-e the putty dries up, contracts and fails out. Then you have a chink or crevice, open to the suction from the chimney. The valuable gases, which should be burned, are forced up along with, the smoke.
So is most of the heat. If you want to see a stove that is airtight throughout, and which will save j-ou enough on fuel the first winter to pay for itself, come in and examine Cole's Original Hot Blast. Made without putty, and is guarrantred to remain airtight during the entire life of the stove. Burns Hard Coal, Soft Coal, Slack, Lignite or Weed. Ask for free booklet on Scientific Cornt.-astiea, vrhich, will solve the fuel problem for you in one short lesson.

His kuowiedg of laugungos was limited to Englis and French, and being desirous of su' dressing the sovereign in his ox tongue he took pains to "coach" f; the occasion. Several phrases were r hearsed until he felt that he had ma tered them. When the critical ir. nient arrived, he saluted the king wi: great dignity, spoke a few words !

I am told, is the most re spectful form of salutation." "Ah, no." corrected a Spaniard, who had been observed to smile at the am bassador's grooting. "You are mistaken. You transposed your words and quite altered the meaning." "What did I say?" asked the diplomat. With a twinkle in his eye the Spaniard made answer, "What you really said was, 'I throw my heel3 at your head.' "

We believe in a real, not a sham, democracy. We believe in democracy as regards political rights, as regards education, and, finally, as regards industrial conditions.
