COMMISSIONER.
MR. EDITOR : —Please announce Joseph Souser,
of Napier township, as a candidate for Commis
sioner, subject to the decision of the Democratic
county convention.
We are authorized to announce Henry Egolf of
Napier tp., as a candidate for the office of Commis
sioner, subject to the decision of the Democratic
couuty convention.
INDEBTEDNESS OF THE COUNTY TO
THE STATE.— It is with great pleasure
that we announce to our readers that
Bedford county is no longer in arrears
for State taxes. Ever since 1850, our
county has struggled on under an incu
bus of a debt to the State. At last we
have shaken off the load and are now
enabled to lightenthetaxes which have
weighed so heavily upon us. Consid
ering the fact that a heavy bounty tax
was paid by the county, that the Court
House has been repaired and refurnish
ed, that heavy expenses have been in
curred by the lodgment in our jail of
an unusually large number of prisoners
(most of them from other counties) and
that a heavy outlay has been required
for the building of bridges, all within
the lastfew years, our County Commis
sioners have done wonders in paying
off the debt to the State. Too much
credit cannot be given them for their
energy in this matter, and their deter
mination to see to it that the county
..should not be imposed upon by the
State officials. In order to sift thor
oughly the statements of the indebted
ness of the county, made by the State
Treasurer and Auditor General, the
Commissioners sent their Attorneys to
Harrisburg, to examine the books of
those officials. The result was that the
county was saved several thousand dol
lars unjustly claimed by the State. So
well havetheCommissionersdischarged
their duty, in this respect, that even
the Bedford Inquirer is induced to pay
them a compliment. We quote from
that paper as follows. "The Commis
sioners deserve great credit for their
prompt efforts to relieve the County of
a debt that was growing very rapidly
and distressed our tax payers, who can
rest assured they will hare no State tax
to pay for the yew 1507." We are not
so sure about not having any State tax
to pay, this year. It is probable that
there will not be any; but the authori
ties at Harrisburg have made so many
contradictory statements to the Com
missioners, that we prefer to wait and
see before we accept the above disting
uished assurance. We hope it will be
all right.
BLOODY RUN SCHOOL HOUSE.— We
have received the following communi
cation, which we publish at the re
quest of the writer. Should the other
side desire to be heard, our columns are
open to them.
BLOODY RUN, April 15, 1867.
MESSRS. MEYERS AND MEXGEL:—
A majority of the tax-payers of this
borough petitioned theScliool Directors
of the same to demand rent for our
School House from Professor Long who
occupies it with his private school.
Rut the Directors chose not to hear the
prayers of the majority. Two of them
stood up manfully for the interests of
the majority, but the remaining four
treated the petitioners' prayers with
disrespect and contempt. Our people
have been taxed oppressively and ex
cessively, in order to erect our magnif
icent Common School edifice, and their
demand for rent, when used for private
purposes, cannot be considered an act of
injustice to the worthy Professor. This
building cost them over three thous
and dollars. When men borrow mon
ey, they pay 6 or 10 per cent, interest.
The ease of the tax-payers is similar;
they have invested their money in that
house, and justice demands some remu
neration when used for other than com
mon school purposes. Improvements
to the school lot and repairs to the
house will soon be needed. Why, then,
not raise as much as possible for such
expenses from rent of the building?
Bedford Borough rents her commodi
ous school edifice when it is not occu
pied for Public School purposes. Why
should not Bloody Run follow the ex
ample? In conclusion I will say, let
our School Directors beware how they
deal with the rights of the majority.
The people are the only legitimate sov
ereigns in this country and their voices
must be heeded. A PETITIONER.

(it being Forty-Eighth Anniversary of
the establishment of thf Order in A

reasons set forth in the proclamation
of its chief national officer, which we
here publish:
Whereas , the R. W. Grand Lodge of
the United States, of the Independent
Order of Odd Fellows, at its late Sep
tember Session, 1866, in grateful 're
cognition of the unerring hand of God
in "rescuing the genius of Odd Fellow
ship from the ruin which desolated so
many of the benevolent and charitable
Institutions of our common country, as
the indispensable effects of civil war,—
and of the unmistakable prosperity
which has crowned its labors during
the year which has just past,' did, by
unanimous vote, direct the M. W.
Grand Sire to issue his Proclamation
appointing a Day of Thanksgiving for
these and countless other blessings
vouchsafed to our beloved order:
Now, therefore, I, James P. Sanders,
M. W. Grand Sire, do hereby fraternal
ly direct that the 26th day of April,
1867, be observed by the Members of
our Order throughout the general ju
risdiction, as a day of Thanksgiving
and Prayer, and that they do assemble
on said* day in such manner and form
of organization, with their families, as
the appropriate authorities in their re
spective State Jurisdictions may pre
scribe, to render thanks to the ever
living God, for his manifest favor and
protection to that Institution which we
so much love and cherish, and espe
cially for the preservation of its unbro
ken unity, through trials and perils of
unparalleled severity.
Done at the City of Baltimore, this
first day of November, A. D., 1866, and
of our Order the forty-eighth.
JAMES P. SANDERS, M. W. G. S.

Branch Encampment, No. 114, of this
place, will unite in a public procession,
in full regalia, and appropriate services
in the Presbyterian Church, at
o'clock of that day. The public are
cordially invited to attend.
WHO CAN BEAT IT?—THIRTY FOX
ES CAUGHT BY ONE MAN!— Jonathan
Harcleroad of Coierain tp., caught
thirty foxes within two miles of his
farm, during the recent winter. The
sportsmen of Bedford would do well
by awarding Mr. Harcleroad a hand
some premium, he having destroyed
the foxes and thus saved much game.
WHO WOULD NOT BE BEAUTIFUL?
—All may possess a clear, unblemished
skin, of alabaster whiteness, by the use
of Chastellar's White Liquid Enamel.
It is the most perfect article in use, for
removing all impurities of the skin,
and unlikeall other cosmetics, contains
nothing that will injure the cuticle;
being vegetable, it is perfectly harmless.
