REPUBLICAN NOMINATIONS. County. For County Judge, JOHN T. KNOX. For Member o f Assembly, FRED U. SWA RTS. For Superintendent o f the Poor, W. HENRY TOWNSEND. For Coroners, J. FENTON UNDERWOOD. JOHN A . CONLEY. October 9 will be New York Day at the Pan-American. On account of the death of President McKinley the Pan-American Exposition was closed on Saturday and Sunday last. The advocates !of restricted immigra tion are now looming up. The restriction of lawlessness would be better. The an archists and other lawless elements are here already. Probably the largest trout which has been taken from Lake Keuka this season was captured near Keuka last week by L. S. Stevens, of Cameron, Steuben county. It weighed 15 pounds. Prince Chun, the Chinese dignitary who went to Berlin to apologize for the mur der o f Baron von Ketteller, the German minister, is to return home by way o f the United States, having accepted an invi tation to visit this country. It is a significant fact that the $30,000,- 000 that will be spent on the St. Louis Exposition, to celebrate the Louisiana purchase, is nearly double what the Lou isiana purchase itself cost the country. And yet there were anti-expansionists in Jefferson’s day who denounced the pur chase as extravagant folly. The Attorney General has rendered an opinion which he has forwarded to the Postmaster General holding that the gov ernment is bound to recover mall matter which is lost through the dishonesty of its employes and restore the same to its owner, and that when a clerk or carrier steals a registered letter, the government is responsible for the amount stolen. President William McKinley died at the MUburn mansion in Buffalo at 2.15 o’clock on Saturday morning last. On Friday he had a sinking spell, from which he never rallied. In spite of the assid uous efforts o f the eminent physicians in attendance he gradually sank into sleep eternal. Up to the time of the change for the worse it was believed that the President was on the road to rapid recov ery, and thereat the people rejoiced greatly. Although the ultimate end was known several hours before it arrived, the grief it occasioned was none the less stunning and poignant. All over thecoun- try flags are half-masted, and other em blems of mourning are displayed. But greater evidence of profound sorrow Is the countenance and actions of the people. Events ordinarily of great interest pale into insignificance or are forgotten. Measured by the highest standards, William McKinley was a great and good man. Withal he was singularly amiable and rich in other lovable traits. In public as well as in private life no scandal ever attached to him. His devotion to his in valid wife and to his country was deep and constant. His statesmanship was of a high order, and with it he displayed re markable ability and tact In every office he graced. He did not become great adven titiously. He sprang from humble envir onments, and his up-steppings into fame were the results of arduous and well di rected endeavors. His whole life, like that of many another similarly condi tioned, exemplifies the possibilities with in the reach of the youth of our land, and by them may well be studied and emulated. In glowing terms his record will be written by the impartial historian, and appreciation of his goodness and greatness will increase with time. As William McKinley lived so he died —courageously and as becomes a Chris tian. In the bight of power and honor, and the attractions of life, he resignedly met death, and his last conscious words were: “ Good bye, a ll; good bye. It’s God’s way. His will be done.” Mrs. Carrie Nation devoted a portion of her address at the fair grounds in this vil lage on Wednesday last to the great evil of tight lacing. Undoubtedly the ladies present did not anticipate such a digres sion from Mrs. Nation’s usual talks, and were not altogether pleased In conse quence. We more than suspect, also, that the male auditors accepted the de parture with more or less satisfaction, considering it as an indirect balm, at least, for their many shortcomings. What Mrs. Nation said was not particularly new, but it was strictly true, according to the almost unvarying testimony of the most eminent physicians. The wearing of corsets serves no pur pose of any material value, while its al most universal abuse in tight lacing to a greater or less degree is fruitful of vari ous, as well as serious, physical ills. It has been contended by the most eminent authorities in the medical profession that the wearing o f corsets entails greater con stitutional defects upon posterity than the drink habit of men. This may not be a strictly warrantable contention, but there is little doubt that it approximates the truth. Tight lacing not only com presses and displaces the vitals, unfitting women for motherhood, as Mrs. Nation declared, but it also creates hideous de formities, judged by any true artistic sense. Many women evidently do not comprehend this fact, and consider a wasp-like waist as an improvement on nature’s design and as the sina qua non of grace and beauty. But however these things may be, it is certain that the man dates of fashion are so inexorable, and there is such a universal slavish submis sion to them, that neither the warnings of physicians nor the preachments of re formers can weaken their influence. Those constantly changing “ effects” which the despot decrees can only be at tained by the use of the corset, and so it is likely to be used until the dawn of mil lennial reform. focal. Messages of sympathy have been pour ing into Washington from all parts of the civilized world. LOCAL CORRESPONDS SOB. Yatesville. V» S. Weather Bureau. PBNN VAN STATION The New York Tribune asks: “ How can a community of lynchers— who are merely collective murderers—condemn an individual assassin ? ” There was a terrible crush at the Cap itol in Washington yesterday, caused by the attempts to get into the crowded building. It is reported that several were injured, more or less seriously. High Heath Rate . The State Department of Health has just issued its bulletin for July. In the Geneva, or West Central district, the re port gives Penn Yan the highest death rate o f any village in the district. The following table shows the rate of death in the villages named, and the figures repre sent an annual death rate per thousand population : A u b u r n ............................................................ 13.0 Ithaca ............................ 13 9 W aterloo.......................................................... 14.0 Seneca F a lk ................................................... 18.0 Geneva . ............................................................ 13 8 Canandaigua ........... . ...................................... 78 Manchester . ................................... 54 Phelps............................................................... 75 Penn Y a n .......................................................... 26.0 The average death rate in the remain der of the district was 11.5, and the aver age for the entire district, including the cities and large villages, was 12.0.

Democratic County Convention. President Roosevelt. Liberty Regulated by Law. Prince Chun, the brother of the Chi nese Emperor, who recently delivered the expiatory address to Emperor Wil liam of Germany on account of the as sassination in Pekin, during the Boxer uprising, of Baron Ketteller, the German Ambassador to China, has, according to reports, made several valuable presents to the German Emperor. This ought to move the Emperor to a realization of the eternal fitness o f things by restoring the loot taken from Pekin by the German army and sent to Berlin. The Schley Court of Inquiry met on Wednesday last in Washington, D. C. Promptly at the opening of the Court Rear Admiral Schley objected to Admiral Howison as a member of the Court on the ground that he had given evidence that he was unduly prejudiced. Evidence was offered to sustain the objection by the introduction of three witnesses, whose testimony was such that, after a few minutes' deliberation by the other members of the Court, the objection was sustained and Howison was excused. The Court then adjourned to await another ap pointment by the Navy Department to fill the vacancy. In view of the evidence adduced, which Howison did not deny, his willingness to sit as a member of the Court was not very creditable. The case against Czolgosz, who mur dered President McKinley, was presented to the Erie County grand jury on Mon day last, and an indictment for murder in the first degree was found against him. The district attorney of Erie County ex pects to have the trial at the regular term of the Supreme Court, which will begin in Buffalo on the 23d inst. Thus there will be swift action in the regular mode of legal procedure, and the majesty of the law will be upheld, which will be in finitely better than the lawless action rec ommended by many frenzied people, in cluding several prominent divines. When arraigned on Tuesday the prisoner re fused to talk, and the presiding judge as signed two prominent Buffalo jurists, Hon. Loren L. Lewis and Hon, Robert C. Titus, former Supreme Court Justices, to act as his counsel. Vice-President Roosevelt was on the top of Mt. Marcy in the Adirondacks when notified of the alarming condition of President McKinley. He immediate ly started for Buffalo, but first had to make a ride of about 35 miles on a buck- board. The trains which carried him to Albany and Buffalo had a clear track and frequently made about 75 miles an hour. On Sunday Mr. Roosevelt took the oath of office as President before U. S. District Judge John R. Hazel, requested the members of the McKinley Cabinet to re tain office for the present—to which they assented—and announced his purpose “ to continue absolutely unbroken the policy of President McKinley.” There will be no extra session of Congress. The events of the day added materially to the his toric interest to the Wilcox home, long a house of cherished associations. It is quite natural that in the all-per vading grief and indignation caused by the assassination of President McKinley there should be a good deal of discussion as to the fundamental cause of such a crime. And in this discussion, and in the earnest desire o f all good people for an effective remedy, opinions differ wide, ly. Some go the extreme of counseling lawlessness, or punishment outside of legal tribunals, which would certainly make our last condition worse than the first. And it is most lamentable that among the foremost advocates of such drastic measures are ministers, who, for the time being, forget that they are the reputed disciples of Christ and commis sioned to expound his teachings. We de not underrate the baleful influence of yellow journalism and the unduly harsh criticism of our Chief Magistrates, but these evils cannot be reached by repress ive legislation. Reform can only come through the moral uplifting of the peo ple. The yellows only publish what a large percentage of the people desire. To lessen this desire is therefore the only effective remedy. As regards the abuse of Presidents, which is largely inspired by political depravity and cussedness, the evil has existed from the foundation of the government. It was virulent in the days of Washington, malignant when Lincoln was President, and worse during Grant’s administraiion. If some of the Republican journals who are now de nouncing it, as it deserves to be de nounced, would turn back to the files of their own sheets, they would find to their shame that they have not been guiltless of the offense of traducing Republican Presidents beyond the bonds of truth and decency. The only effective remedy for the evils that are now, in the country’s deep grief, universally deplored, can be secured through a more strict enforce ment o f our laws and in the suppression of every form of lawlessness, and to this end cowardly demagogical officials who imagine that political capital can be made through truckling to the dangerous classes should be quickly relegated to private life and kept there. As the New York Tribune truly says, “ the sacred ness of law is being realized anew,” and predicts, as the result, “ the agitator who encourages riots in the name of labor, the leader who urges lynching in the name of justice, and the avowed anar chist who preaches murder in the name of human freedom, be alike crushed un der the heel of a nation determined to live up to the old American tradition of liberty regulated by law.” Theodore Roosevelt is the youngest man who has filled the office of President of the United States. He has, however, had long and varied official experience. Moreover he is a man of letters, of tested valor, and of exemplified strenuousness in the maintenance of what he believes to be right. He assumes the office of Chief Magistrate, in accordance with con stitutional authority, under the most sor rowful circumstances and at a time when great and difficult problems of State are pressing for solution. It is believed, how ever, that he will be able to rise to the level of every emergency. In taking the I oath at Buffalo he declared it to be his 1 portion to follow absolute the policies of his predecessor, and it is safe to predict that he will keep his pledge. In minor positions he may not have dis played the cautiousness and conservatism which were among the characteristics of his predecessor, but these are certain to come with increased responsibility. He has the assurance of the confidence and support of the people, and he will not disappoint their expectations. The funeral of the late President Mc Kinley will t e held at Canton, Ohio, to morrow at 2 p. m. On Monday, after brief services at the Milburn mansion, the remains were taken fo Washington and to the East Room of the White House. On Tuesday they were escorted to the Capitol building and placed in the rotunda, where they were viewed by thousands. Impressive services were also held in the Capitol. The Amalgamated Association can now go on dry dock for repairs. The next time it launches a strike it will probably have some justification. The Democratic County Convention was held at the Court House in this vil lage on Saturday afternoon last. The convention was called to order by Harry C. Earles, chairman of the County Cen tral Committee. Charles R. Gardner, of Torrey, was chosen cha irman, and L. Case Williams, of Middlesex, and J. Al exander, of Jerusalem, secretaries and tellers. The following judicial delegates were chosen: Thomas Carmody and Cal vin J. Huson, of Milo, and Henry C. Harpending, of Starkey. The following nominations were made without opposition : For Member of As sembly, Ernest R. Bordwell, of Milo; for Superintendent of the Poor, George Wet- tling, of Potter; for Coroners, Dr, John M. Maloney, of Starkey ; Dz. C. M. Van Dyke, of Himrod. No nomination was made for County Judge. A resolution was introduced by Hon. Calvin J. Huson empowering the County Central Committee to fill any and all va cancies that now or may hereafter exist. The following resolution was unani mously adopted by a rising v o te: The Democracy o f the County o f Yates, in con vention assembled, desire to give expression of their profound grief over the death o f President M cKinley. He was a true American, and his un tim ely death is an irreparable loss to the whole American people. He has been our c h ief execu. live during a most trying and critical period, and his wise and far seeing statesmanship, his exalt ed ideal o f official responsibility, his irreproach able private life and character have won the af fections o f the whole people and his name will be honored and venerated in the ages to come. The executive committee selected is as follows : Harry C. Earles, Edson Pot ter, John Sheridan, William C. Craugb, George Simmons, Edward Waldron, Wil liam R. Stanton, James I. Reynolds, H. V. L. Jones, Charles H. Eaton. The County Central Committee select ed for the ensuing year is as follows : Bar rington, Martin Beilis, Jay Hallock; Ben ton, A. J. Newcomb, William A. Schoon, John H.

After the adjournment of the conven tion the County Central Committee or ganized by choosing John H. Meehan as chairman, H. V. L. Jones as secretary, and George H. Simmons as treasurer. her 28, only a week later than was first ar ranged for. Sir Thomas Lipton will not be disappointed. It was announced on the 7th inst. that on certain conditions the races would be indefinitely post poned. ■ — - William M. King, ex-chief of the seed division of the U. S. Agricultural Depart ment, has been making an inspection of territory devastated by the Hessian fly, and has published a report, in which he makes some valuable suggestions. He advises remedial measures, among which are burning the stubble and plowing it under, also the early seeding of a narrow strip around the outer edge of the wheat field early in September, The young plants will serve as a decoy for the fly; the main crop should be sown late in September or the first of October, and heavily fertilized in order to give the young plants a vigorous start. A bulletin recently issued by the agricultural exper iment station at Ithaca also advises sow ing narrow decoy strips of wheat about September ist, and plowing it under four weeks later. It says : “ Many of the fall broods of flies, emerging from mid summer ‘flax seeds,’ will be decoyed to lay their eggs on these strips and their progeny can be destroyed by plowing un der the decoy plants.” Maya Mills. —More rain. —Mra.

A Study ot Political Hysterics. “ A Most Lamentable Com edy” is the title of a powerful novelette by Mr. Wil liam Allen White, which begins in the September issue of the Saturday Even ing Post , of Philadelphia. This absorb ing serial is a study ot political hysterics — the story of a State gone mad. The scene of the novelette is a Western State laboring under the burdens of a panic year. The central figure is a grocery store demagogue, whose hare-brained or atory captures the State convention. The story rises to a height of dramatic power and intensity rarely equalled in the fiction of the day. Letter to a Penn Fan Lawyer, Penn Yant N . Y.

Last week, according to a Buffalo de spatch, acting Secretary Hackett, of the Navy, importuned Attorney General Knox both by telegraph and letter to appoint one of the assistant attorney generals to assist Captain Lemly, the Judge Advocate of the Schley Court of Inquiry in the contest of the case before the Court, but the Attorney General declined to take a step which he believed would look like government prosecution of the officer on trial. The government, in his opinion, should have no part in the trial. It is an inquiry under the Navy Department, made at the request of Admiial Schley, and the government has nothing to do with it. The President himself recom mended Admiral Schley for promotion, and now for the Department of Justice to detail an officer under it to assist in the conduct of the case would inevitably be construed as a desire on the part of the administration to convict that officer. The strike ordered by the Amalgamated Association against the great steel com bine has ended in the complete discom fiture of the strikers. The steel company has made no concessions. The men will return to work, so far as vacancies will permit, much poorer in pocket, but with a sad exerience which ought to be a valu able lesson to them in the future. Some will undoubtedly have to wait a long time for employment, as the steel company will retain the men who came to their re lief during the strike, as It is in duty bound to do. Altogether the strike was a monumental mistake, and the ending is what was generally anticipated by intelli gent people. It was not a justifiable strike, and consequently It did not enlist public sympathy. The result is not a triumph of capital over labor, as labor agi tators will claim, but it is a rebuke to those leaders who sought to usurp prov inces which do not rightfully belong to them and to commit additional out rages upon non-union men, who prefer to Years ago there used to be temperance revivals which were productive of much good. John B. Gough and Francis Mur phy were among the noted revivalists, and a grand work they wrought in the uplifting ot many who were on the down hill road to ruin. It was then believed that the best way to work temperance re form was through persuasion and en lightenment. The important fact was recognized that no one addicted to the use of intoxicants was ever reformed en- duringly because he cou?d not obtain them. That reformation had to be worked Inwardly, not outwardly. Now temper ance reformers work in a different way. They think that legislative prohibition is the most effective antidote. Very little is done in the way of temperance revi vals, except what is accomplished by the Salvation Army and kindred organiza tions, which continue to work on old lines. Has the change been for the better? Is the temperance cause moving onward and upward, as shown by reformatory re sults? How much baa the Prohibition party, as a political organization, done to uplift drunkenness from the slough of despond, or to turn back those treading dangerously near the mire? Very little, we think. Far be it from us to impugn the motives o f those engaged in any tem perance work, but the relative merits of the different modes of reform procedure are rightly judged by their fruits. And judged by this standaid the conclusion is inevitable that though reform legislation may accomplish something in the right direction, the true way to promote tem perance is tbe universal way adopted to promote religion. We cannot make men religious by statute, neither can we re form them in any way by compulsion.

Years ago, and before the construction of the Fall Brook railway, a company was formed to build a railroad from Savona to Sodus, via Penn Yan. Tbe right of way was all secured, bridges were built, and most of the grading was done. The pro posed road was to follow the east side of Lake Keuka for several miles, and the re mains of the “ railroad ” bridge crossing Egleston’s gully used to be pointed out to people on the steamers. Many towns were bonded to provide funds for the con struction of the road, but financial trou bles overtook the promoters and backers of the enterprise, and it was abandoned. About this time it is said an arrangement was made by the leading spirit in the en terprise, the late Edgar Munson, of Wil liamsport, Pa., with the late George Ma gee, of Watkins, whereby the latter agreed to build the road, but he subse quently constructed the Fall Brook from Lyons to Corning instead. The Farmers’ Loan & Trust Company, of New York, was made tbe trustee of those financially interested in the uncompleted road, and foreclosed the mortgage on the property. At the sale it was bid in by Edgar Mun son, and suit was instituted against Ma gee for failure to carry out his agree ment. This action was in court a num ber of years, but the outcome was favor able to Magee, and since then abont the only thing that has served as a reminder of the enterprise has been the seven per cent, interest on the bonds. Fortunately the town of Milo escaped that burden, although a great effort was made to bond it. As the years passed by, farmers along the line through whose property tbe right of way had been secured began plowing up the graded roadbed, and again inc'ud- ing the property among their possessions. Recently, however, a Bath attorney,while investigating along other lines, came upon a statute which provides that any corporation, even though it has lain dor mant for half a century, can, under the provisions of this law,by filing a certificate of re-incorporation, at once bring their rights of ownership and possession right up to date and make them as holding, legal, and binding as when first executed. He communicated with the executor of the estate of Edgar Munson, who pur chased the property at the foreclosure sale, and as a result re-incorporation papers are said to have been filed, aud the estate now claims a strip of land sev eral rods wide extending from Savona to Sodus Bay via Penn Yan, Geneva, and Lyons. This will prove a great surprise to many property owners along the line who came into possession of their land after the road had been almost forgotten. The right of way is said to have cost $200,900. A Bath coirespondent says: “ Already a party c f civil engineers, in the interest ot tbe owners of the Unadllla electric road, are at Savona to overlook the ground, and another contractor named Whipple, from Nyw York, is expected within a few days, with the possible idea of purchase. The road, which will undoubtedly soon be constructed, will be an electric crose- State line, and will be the only one be tween the Fall Brook and the B., R. & P. It will extend from Savona to Sodus Point. Many other contractors in the State are interested in the matter, and the Munson estate at Williamsport is be sieged with letters ot inquiry relative to alter.tter, Itt wasas recentlyecently proposedrop to N.

In his death each feels that he has lost a personal friend. We shall not soon see his like again. He was em p h atically the right mao in the right place. His great fam iliarity with pub lic questions, his extensive acquaintance with public m e u .h is long experience in public life; his noble, Christian character, and his unfalter in g interest in the welfare o f the people, equipped him for the duties o f his great office as probably no other man in this country is equipped. “ When a good man dies the nation mourns,” and a great hum iliation and sorrow rests upon all the people —hum iliation that the President o f a great na tion should be shot down in the midst of his usefulness by an ignorant, contemptible, assas- sin, and sorrow that our greatest statesman has gone. The expressions ofsym p a thy from foreign potentates also indicate his high standing among the great men of the world. But let us not for. get that although the President falls the govern ment lives. Our republic depends on the e x ist ence o f no one m ao. Let us, therefore, give way to no narrow pessimism, which is alike ruinous to individuals and people, b u t.let us fondly hope that the g reat policies which our beloved Presi dent inaugurated and so nearly consummated w ill be brought to a successful term ination by him whom God has ordained, and tbe people elected, to finish tbe work. — William Haynes is the coming postmaster at this place. —The post-office will soon be a money order office. — Our town board met as required by law and designated the hall o f D.

There is no ittbject that requires eo much study and experience as the treatment and cure of chronic diseases. The astonishing success and remarkable cures performed by Dr. Butterfield are due to the gift of clairvoy ance, to the long study of the constitu tion of mao, and the curing of diseases from natural causes. Let those given up by others call for an examination. He cures the worst cases of scrofula, catarrh, piles, female weakness, asthma, diseases of the heart, lungs, and kidneys. He will be at Knapp House, Penn Yan, Wednesday, October 9, 1901, the ma i w r p construct an electric road from Savona to Penn Yan, but this has been abandoned, and the new road will be as originally stated and planned. The almost general impression exists among property own ers along the old line that because the matter has lain so long dormant, that the land has reverted to the farms from which it was originally purchased. Tbe an nouncement of this late legal discovery will prove a genuine surprise and disap pointment to many, as the recent agita tion of tbe Penn Yan-Savona line has caused a great enhancement of real es tate values in that section.” Gentlemen who want easy shoes that will wear should buy the Cygolf, at Wag ener Bros.' A very good illustration of keeping money in circulation is to be had from the following: A colored man comes into a group on the stage with a bill iu his hand and says: “ Any of you lost a two- dollar bill? I just picked ouc up here out side the doah.” No one had lost it, but the end man reminds the finder that he owes him two dollars and that now will be a good time to pay. Tbe debt is paid and the note is passed on. Thus the bill goes from one to another until it comes to a colored man who owes two dollars to the original finder of the bill, and then It returns to the man it started with. Just after he receives it a white man rushes iu and calls out, “ Any of you picked up a two dollar bill? I dropped one a few min utes ego outside the door.” “ Here’s your two-dobar bill boss,” says the find er, “ you can have it. but we’ve all done paid our debts.*1— Exchange. What a r e Hum ors ?
