That ‘Turnpike Case. Eprror WarcaMAN.—The Gazette of last week repeated its attack of two weeks ago, upon Mr. Rishel and others, thereby hoping to. break the force of the result in the Turnpike case, and algo to shield Judge Furst from the de- served accusations of favoritism: and partiality. No one who was present at the trial, or who is cognizant of thé true state ot the case, will for a moment believe one word of the charge made by the Gazette, butin justice to Mr. Rishel, Mr. Bunnell, and others, who have been ma- liciously!attacked by this vile sheet, we ask for space in the WATCHMAN to give an unbiassed statement of the entire controversy. The litigation which has given the Republi- can ring and its servile organ so much concern of late, had its origin in the proceedings 'insti-’ tuted about two years ago by a large number * of citizens of this country to have the Centre and Kishacoquillis turnpike road condemned and freed from tolls and toll-gates. The pe- tition for viewers is signed by hundreds of the best people in the county, a large: majority of whom are from Spring and Potter townships, and Bellefonte and Centre Hall Boroughs, and prominent and substantial men from these boroughs and townships, as well as from Ben- ner and Haines township, are furnishing the means to carry on’ the litigation. Such men as William Bilger, Joseph Tressler, John Rish- el. J. M. Bunnel, J. A. Aikens, D. K. Guise, Henry P, Sankey, John Wolf, Samuel Slack, Alfred Durst, and anumber of others of like influence and standing in the community,have contributed of their means, aud given their active support to the movement. The men have no party interests to. subserve, and poli- ties was unknown in the case until it came be- fore Judge Furst upon an appeal from the re- port ofthe viewers, who condemned thé road and assessed the damages. ' The question is frequently asked, by those unacquainted with the condition of affairs, why was this proceeding begun ? What benefit could the condemnation of this road be to these petitioners and to the community general- ly ? A few extracts from the evidence taken be- fore the viewers, and a glimpse at the history of turnpikes, will show very plainly why these people are so anxious to have the road condemned. From the time this turnpike was opened until the opening of railroads through this section, this road was a through route from the Juniata to -the head waters of the West-Branch. The road was con- tinually crowded with teams of all descrip- . tions carrying on the trade between these sec- tions, In fact it was one of the main thorough- fares of ths State. Then the road from Belle- fonte to Lewistown, a distance of forty miles, had but five toll-gates. The through travel predominated,’ and the toll gates were so ar- ranged that the burden of the tolls exacted feil upon the general trade on the road, and not upon the people of different localities. Any one familliar with the turnpike legislation of this State knows that the spirit of it is to collect the tolls authorized mostly from gener- al and not from local trade, and any company owning a turnpike that would collect its tolls upon the opposite principle would not only violate the provisions of its charter, but for- feit its right to collect any tolls at all. As soon as the diiferent railroads now being operated in this section were opened, through trade on this turnpike ceased, and the tolls upon which the company depended for its divi® dends ceased to drop into its coffers. Unless the expenses could be decreased, and the tolls kept up to a good round sum, the stock would become worthless. The facts are that about the time our railroads were opened the stock went down from fifty dollars a share to merely. nominal value, This stock was then owned principally by the estate of the late Wm. A Thomas,deed, Judge Rhoads being the trustee; the estate of Wm. P. Wilson, decd., Gov, Beav- er, Robert Valentine, Dr.Hale, William Allison, and a few others. The late Judge Irwin was the principal mannager and rem ained £0 until the time of his death, when he was suceeeded by Robert Valentine. In order to restore the failing condition of the road and keep up the dividends, the entire policy of its management wag npw changed. The first step was to aban- don the portion of the road in Mifflin county, thus making it exclusively a local road. This action was followed by the erection of addi: tional toll gates in this county, the increase of rates of tolls, and a system of extortion from local travel that was offensive in the extreme. The increase of tolls and toll-gates was quietly submitted to for a long time, but whe n the road was allowed to go down, and at places be- come almost impassable, the people commene- ed to grow restless, and it finally resulted in this proceeding to get rid of what to any reason- able mind is extortion and oppression. The question may arise as to whether the facts will bear out these assertions. The evi- dence taken before the Master and Viewers is a matter of record, and open to the inspection of everybody. It was there proved conclusive- ly, that the road now is entirely a local road, and the travel upon it almcst exclusively local; that the number of toll-gates, and the rates of toll, have gradually been increased; that the road is generally in very ‘bad condition, in many places worn out; and Judge Irwin, the manager, admitted that if the road was kept in even ordinary repair along the entire route, the income would be insufficient to pay the ex- penses, and the stock would be of no "value at all. In the light of these facts, are not these people justifiable in asking that this road be condemned, and this system of extortion .re- moved ? Under what theory or pretext ean the owners of this road'asked the people of the County to pay tribute to them, when they sim- ply pocket the proceeds and refuse to main- tain the road in even a fair conditions? The truth is, the company do not care to maintain the road, and have expressed willingness to have it condemned, but insist that they must have an excessive amount of damages for what they, or their manager, admitted was a worthless road. When the petition upon which these pro- ceadings are based was presented, the com- pany appeared in Court voluntarily, and par- ticipated in the selection of a Master and View- ers. Counsel for the Company consented to and acquiesced in the appointment of the Mas- ter, and every viewer selected by the Court. Three days were spent in the examination of the road and the hearing of the case. Col. Keller, the master, who had the same powers as a Judge trying a casé, carefully supervised the taking of the testimony,and in-an elaborate and able charge submitted the case to the view- ers. They condemned theroad, and assessed the damages at $527. This finding raised a perfect hurricane. While these people admit- ted that their stock had no practical value,they insisted that they must have large dam- ages to compensate them for their property which was about to be taken. For some rea: son, then not apparent, Judge Furst assented openly that the award was an outrage, and boasted that an appeal would be taken, and that he would preside at the trial. He did preside at that trial upon the appeal,®and the jury assessed the damages for this same road at $12,800. Why this difference ? Col. Keller, one of our leading lawyers, and a thoroughly honest man, presided at the first trial. He ad- ‘company these engravings. mitted evidence to show the condition of the road, the value of the stock, the income of the road, and the cost necessary to put the road in ordinary repair, as well as the value of the road itself. Upon the evidence adduced under these rulings the viewers condemned the road and assessed the damages at $527. Judga Furst, who presided at the nexi trial, admitted evi dence showing the value of the road, and to some extent its condition, but excluded the evidence showing the value of the stock, or the cost of putting the road in ordinary repair. In hearing the testimony, Judge Furst allowed railroad contractors, railroad engineers, lum- ber, men and iron masters to testify toa fancy value of the road bed itself, some even testi- fying that the road was worth $1800 per mile ; but when farmers, and men who had experi- ence in building public roads, were placed up- on the stand, he refused to allow them to give their opinions of the value of the road, be- cause they did not have sufficient experience. The evidence admiited under this ruling was necessarily one-sided, and, and after a charge of the same quality, the jury could do nothing else than render?a verdict, giving this Com- pany exorbitant damages for a worthless road. Why Judge Furst should be so zealous in caring for the interests of this corporation is not difficult to understand, in the light of the fact that the leading characters of the Repub- lican ring of this county,and those who furnish the sicews of war for the Republican campaigns are the principal owners of the stock and the beneficiaries of this contemptible system of extorting money from the people of the county- This conclusion is materially strengthened by the fact that the Gazette, the. official organ of this ring, seeks to defend these ‘extraordi nary antics by falsehood and misrepresenta- tion. John Rishel, a member.of the commit- tee appointed to prosecute this case, is accus- ed of every imaginable crime, simply because he did his duty, ahd the attorneys who ap- peared for the petitioners are accused of at- tempting to filch money from the county, when their entire effort upon this trial was to cut down the damages as low as possible in or- der to prevent the ringsters from taking mon- ey from the county treasury to which they are not entitled under any circumstance. The law firm of Orvis, Bower &Orvis need no defence or vindication in this matter. The rul- ings of Col. Keller upon the first trial, and the $527 damages assessed by the viewers, place them in the proper light before the peo- ple of the county. The petitioners are their clients, and not the company. The petitioners are interested in having the damages asessed aslow as possible, the company as high as possible. The only persons who could possi» bly be benefited by excessive damages are these stockholders, and not the petitioners or theirattorneys. If there isa steal in this case the friends of the Gazette are the parties who have a “firm grip on the swag.” No doubt this is why this ery of “stop thief” is raised so promptly by- thislittle creature of the ring. He is paid for this purpose, and he must be ! worthy of his hire. ' XXX Fer —————— Books, Magazines, &c.

Londons’ Monster Labor Demoastra- tion, Half a Million People Assembled in Or- derly Array in Hyde Park. Loxpon, May 4. —To day’s labor de- monstration in Hyde Park was a magnfi- cent success, and excelled 'in point of numbers and orderly enthusiasm all working class gatherings since: the great reform assemblage in 1866. The splendid organization of the different trades taking part in the pro- cessions brought together in the park half a million people who met, went through the business and dispersed with- out a single incident occurring of a disorderly character. The total num- ber taking part in the various processions | is estimated at 170,000, and these were almost lost in the vastness of the assem- blage gathered around the thirteen platforms upon which the Labor Day | advocates held forth. RESOLUTIONS ADOPTED. Resolutions demanding hours be recognized as a day’s work were put and carried amid the exclama- tions of the multitude, and by five o’clock, when the paraders had reformed in line, the assemblage began to dis- perse. cdmputation of the gathering, spectable artisan class, the rag bag and bobtail being conspicuously absent. The speakers included Mr. Davitt, Mr, Cunningham Graham, John Burns, Thos. Mann, Benjamin Fillett, Mrs. Aveling and Annie Besant. By six o'clock the park was deserted and the thoroughfares were full of or- derly crowds streaming homeward. THE GIGANTIC PROCESSION. The gigantic procession was in time | to start at 8 o'clock, and punctually st that hour it moved oif amid thunderous cheering and blending music of many bands. The route toward the park was along Bridge street, St. James Park and ! Birdcage walk, which were lined with spectators. Masses of artisans joined the paraders on the way until entering the park the estimated number of men in line was 150,000. Simultaneously with the appearance in the park of the ‘trades columns sections of the social Democratic federation began to enter. Some of them had joined the main body on the Thames embankment, while others marched in from the dis- tant suburbs; marched from different points converging toward the two plat- forms in the park especially. allotted to Socialists speakers The Railway ‘Workers’ Union had also a special procession, some of the groups of which swelled the embankment columns while others marched isolated towards the platform centres.
