AISI HSER ERNE TN,
Why Mr. Kepler Voted Against the
Increase of Salaries.
The Bellefonte Republican and the Bi-
tuminous Record, of Philipsburg, are rising,
in their ignorance to ask why the Hon. J.
W. KEPLER, while a member of the last
Legislature, voted against the bill for the
increase of salaries for public school teach-
ers. Laying aside discussions of the merits
of the measure we take the more important
one of personal representation.
It has always been held that a Represen-
tative in the Legislature serves best the in-
terests of his constituents when he acts in
accordance with their desires, expressed
either verbally or hy petition. In this case,
no matter what Mr. KEPLER'S own feelings
on the bill may have been, he was actuated
in voting as he did by a preponderance of
letters from representative people in this
county urging him to vote against is. He
bad no other means of feeling the public
pulse and properly decided that be should
vote the way most of his constituents
urged.
While the WATCHMAN was in favor of
the passage of the bill it can find nothing
but commendation of Mr. KEPLER’S course.
It the school teachers of the county were
not interested enough in it to properly
plead their side of the case then there was
nothing left for him to do, but follow the
behests of those who were.
There would he little use in sending men
to the Legislature if they were to vote and
act irrespective of the wishes of their con-
stituents, and contrary to their best inter-
ests and this is the reason that Mr. KEPLER
voted as he did, because he has always en-
deavored to represent the people of Centre
county and not his own ideas and in
this c= he took the only course that was
open to him.
——The farmers of Centre county who
are in favor of spending $121,000,000 an-
nually on the War Department and only
$5,000,000 for Agriculture, should remem-
ber to vote for ROOSEVELT and FAIRBANKS.
They are the statesmen who demanded that
there should be twenty-four times as much
taxes paid for the purpose of getting us in-
to tronble as for the betterment of the con-
dition of the farmers.
Democratic Senatorial Conference.
Hon. James Kerr, of Clearfield, was
nominated as the Democratic candidate for
the Senate in this, the 34th senatorial dis-
trict, composed of the counties of Centre,
Clinton and Clearfield, at a conference held
in the parlors of the Brockerhoff house,
Bellefonte, last Saturday morzing at 10
o'clock.
The conference was largely attended by
representative Democrats of the three coun-
ties and more than the ordinary interest
and enthusiasm was manifested. The oon-
ference was called to order by Geo. W. A.
MacDonald, ‘of Lock Haven, who was a
substitute conferee for Mr. Bridgeus, of
that city. J. C. Meyer, of Bellefonte,
was elected chairman of the conference and
Dr. G. B. Hennigh, of Clearfield, and W.
E. Shaffer, of Renovo, secretaries.
The Clinton county conferees had been
instructed for ex-Senator W. C. Heinle, of
Bellefonte, and the Centre county ocon-
ferees, though uninstructed, were favorable
to Mr. Heinle’s nomination. Senator
Heinle, however, did not deem it expedient
to accept the nomination at this time and,
immediately upon the organization of the
conference arose and in a brief speesh,
thanked the Democrats of Clinton and
Centre counties for their loyal support, bus
said that inasmuch as the Republicans had
nominated Col. E. A. Irvin, of Curwens-
ville, as their candidate they had thrown
down the gauntlet to make Clearfield coun-
ty the fighting ground of the district and
such being the case be felt that the Demo-
cratic candidate should be chosen from that
county ; and therefore, he would ask the
conference to nominate the Hon. James
Kerr, of Clearfield.
Mr. MacDonald, of Clinton county, ask-
ed if Mr. Kerr would accept the nomina-
tion and, upon being assured by the Clear-
field delegation that he would, he made a
motion that Mr. Kerr be made the nominee
and that the secretaries be instructed to
cast the ballot. The motion was seconded
by Hon. James Schofield and was carried
unanimously. Dr. H. W. Buckingham
made a brief speech of thanks to the con-
ference for giving the nomination to Clear-
field county, and especially to Mr. Kerr.
Other speeches were made by J. C. Barclay,
chairman of the Clearfield county commit-
tee ; Cap’t. H. S. Taylor, Geo. W. A.
MacDonald, J. C. Meyer, Col. J. L.
Spangler, D. F. Fortney, Col. John A.
Woodward, John F. Short, and Hon. Jas.
Schofield. Mr. Fortney predicted not only
the election of Mr. Kerr to the Senate but
also that two years from now he would be
nominated for Governor.
The conferees attending the conference
were from Centre county—J. C. Meyer,
M. I. Gardner and James Schofield, all of
Bellefonte,
Clinton county—Geo. W. A. Maec-
Donald, Lock Haven ; W. E. Shaffer and
D. W. May, Renovo.
Clearfield county—Dr. H. W. Baek-
ingham, Dr. G. B. Hennigh and Dennis
Dempsey, all of Clearfield. Accompanying
the Clearfield conferees were John C. Bar-
clay, A. M. Bloom, J. D. Connelly and
John F. Short, editor of the Clearfield
Republican.

Suitable for the Occasion.
The Republican campaign of this State
is to he opened to-morrow evening with an
elaborate display of financial resources.
That is to say under the auspices of the
Manufacturer’s club a meeting will be held
in the Academy of Music of Philadelphia,
which will be addressed by former Attor-
ney General PHILANDER C. KNox. In
the announcement Mr. KNOX is set down
as a Senator in Congress. As a matter of
fact he isn’t a Senator and that makes him
a false pretense. He was appointed Sena-
tor hy Governor PENNYPACKER, just as
the late Mr. QUAY was appointed Senator
by Governor STONE. But QUAY didn’t sit
under that appoinament and neither will
Knox.
The Manufacturer’s club, of Philadel-
phia, is the limis of iniquity. Some years
ago, when the predatory beneficiaries of the
robber tariff, were planning political ocor-
ruption on a scale which disgusted the de-
cent members of the Union League, those
in that organization who were willing to
go to any extent formed the Manufactur-
er’s club. Since it has been a propaganda
of political iniquity. I¢ bas maintained
schools for teaching ballot frauds and paid
the wages of repeaters and ballot box stuf-
fers out of the generous unearned bounties
paid to its members through the operations
of the tariff. It is the most vicious organi-
zation in this or any other christian coun-
try.
It is eminently fis that the Republican
campaign of this year should be opened
under such auspices and conditions. The
principal orator has been selected with wise
discretion, moreover. Having become the
lobby agens of a corporation on the floor of
the Senate, in violation both of morals and
decency, Mr. KNox has the right to speak
for the party of trusts and special privi-
leges and the fact that he pretends to be a
Senator in Congress when he knows he
isn’t, if he knows any law at all, empha-
sizes his claim to the distinction whioh has
been conferred on him, the privilege of
opening the campaign of fraud and false
pretense.

A NEW STORE TO BE OPENED.—Just as
soon as the excitement incident te our
great county fair subsides, there will be
something else to interest and entertain
and take anything left over in money or
goods. It will be a country store to be
opened the last week in October in the
cafe of Petriken Hall by the Lady Mana-
gers of the hospital. The managers of the
county fair ask your money to amuse and
entertain you next week but these fair
managers of the hospital ask your money
and goods to help a most worthy charity
and although they will take care of your
big pumpkins, red apples, good jellies and
pies jnst as well as the men, they do not
ask only your best but anything —clothes,
furnitare, vegetables, groceries, etc., for
their store will include more departments
than John Wanamaker’s. Don’t go to the
city to do your fall shopping or you’ll be
sorry when yon see the birgains and styles
this store will have.
If every one in the county will feel an
interest and contribute towards a brilliant
opening of this great store, our hospital
would be on Easy street for a long time.
AN EXCITING EXPERIENCE.—Mr. and
Mrs. W. Gross Mingle had an exciting ex-
perience Sunday a week ago while cross-
ing Nittany mountain. When half
way up the mountain an automobile
approached them from behind and
cansed the horse they were driving to be-
come greatly excited. Mrs. Mingle with
buggy, ran back to meet the anto and
pleaded with them to stop immediately,
which they did. The horse in the mean-
time was driven to a telephone pole and
by the aid of several men who happened by
was prevented from running away. The
brute became perfectly srazed from fear,
repeatedly rearing and striking the pole
while standing perfectly erect. But for
the protection of the telephone pole the
animal could not bave been prevented
from getting away, as it was the men were
in great danger of life and limb while en-
deavoring to pacify the frenzied animal.

THAT CONGREGATIONAL MEETING.—A
prolonged session of the congregational

resolution was introduced in effect that an

thorough discussion of the question, pro

A second resolution was then introduced in
effect that it was the sense of the congrega-

secret ballot was taken and when the votes
were counted the resurns showed 71 for the

~~ BUSHELS OF FisH KILLED,—Persons
railroad on Sunday to where Buffalo Run
creek empties into Spring creek were
greeted with a sight that would pall the
heart of any fisherman. The banks of the
stream were strewn with dead fish of all
sizes. There were trout and suckers galore
with a few oat-fish and eels. Those who
saw them declare that there were not less
than three to four barrels of dead fish
along the stream. An investigation re-
vealed the fact that the fish were killed by
thesulpharous deposits in the old lining of
the Bellefonte furnace which, on being re-
moved, had been dumped at such a place
that some of it rolled into the creek.

the company received a very nice order for
their famous charcoal iron—an order large

come—and on Monday work was begun to
put the plant in shape for immediate oper-
ation. So rapidly was the work pushed
that the fire was lighted on Wednesday and
the first cast was made last night. May the

JUSTIFIED IN WHIPPING. — By the de-
cision of Justice John M. Keichline a
echool teacher has the right to whip a
scholar into submission. Such was the
verdict given in the case of Mr. Harry
Yearick, teacher of the junior grammar
school, Bellefonte. On Tuesday Mr. Year-
ick requested George Jackson, a fourteen-
year-old colored pupil, of rather unruly
tendencies, to change seats. Jackson re-
fused to do so. Mr. Yearick attempted to
compel him to obey when the youngster
turned on the teacher, struck and kicked
him and tore his clothing, when Mr. Year-
ick gave him a thoroughly deserved thrash-
ing. Tuesday afternoon Mrs. Jackson, the
boy’s mother, had the teacher arrested and
the hearing was held before Justice Keich-
line Wednesday evening. After hearing
all the evidence in the case Mr. Keichline
read the law on the subject then gave the
boy one of the best talkings to ever heard
in a jussice’s court, telling him that he got
only what he deserved and acquitting the
teacher of all blame. Of course, Mr. Year-
ick was discharged.
NEW CEMETERY IN Boggs Twp.—Mrs.
R. J. Gibbs and daughter, of Milesburg,

left to Mrs. Gibbs by the late Mrs. Lavina
P. Treziyulny, in accordance with the will
of the deceased. The cemetery, which
will overlook Milesburg and Bald Eagle
valley, will be laid out in a semi-circle and
the lots all numbered. It will be a Union
cemetery. Though lots will be offered for
sale a plot will be reserved in which old
soldiers can be buried free of charge. A
second lot will also be reserved for the
poor. .

horses owned by Mr. M. Fanble, Mr. M.
B. Garman and Mr. W. V. Larimer, of
Bellefonte, will start in their respective
classes. Mr. Bolopue and Mr. Joseph
Diehl, of Howard, will also have entries
and Irvin Gray will be there with his popu-
lar “Sally Derby’ the beautiful pacing
mare. These local horses will add much
to the interest of the racing with the long
list of foreign racers that will be on the
track at the great Fair.

OSTEOPATEY AN ADVANCED SCIENCE.
—The regular visits of Dr. S. C. Robinson
to the Bush bouse, in this place, on Tues-
days and Saturdays of each week have
awakened considerable local interest in the
new science which he practices. Of course
osteopathy has been a living and progres-
sive practice in the larger cities for several
years, but like all new things it has taken
it considerable time to reach out into the
inland districts.
From the year book of the school of
osteopathy we learn that Dr. Robinson isa
recognized graduate of the national school
and from testimonials he has received from
prominent men and women in Williams-
port we are convinced that he is a very sac-
cessful practitioner.
Expressing it in unprofessional language
osteopathy is the science of treatment of
diseases of various natures by rubbing or
otherwise exercising the portions of the
anatomy affected in a way that exoites and
promotes a healthy, vigorous action. Medi-
cines are not used and while it was primar-
ily designed for the correction of deform-
ities alone the treatment has been found
most effective in other directions.
Dr. Robinson may be consulted free of
charge at the Bush house on Tuesdays and =
Saturdays of each week, where he will be
pleased to give any one the advantage of
his knowledge and advise them as to
whether his treatment will be of any
avail.
We make this mention of Dr. Robinson
entirely without his solicitation and whol-
ly because the science he practives has
awakened considerable interest elsewhere
and when such an opportunity to investi-
gate it is offered our people it should be
taken advantage of.

THE KARTHAUS FIRE BRICK Co.—An
office has been opened in Lock Haven by
the Karthaus Fire Brick company, now in
process of organization and application has
been made for a charter. Arrangements
have been made with the New York Cen-
tral Railroad company to have one of their
engineers locate the necessary switches on
the lands of the fire brick company and the
plant of the latter will also be located soon.
The work of constructing the necessary
buildings will then be pushed as rapidly
as possible. The plant will be erected at
Karthaus where there is already a town
with coal operations in progress on land
adjacent to that owned by the Karthaus
Fire Brick company. This company is
composed mostly of Lock Haven and Clin-
ton county citizens and their office will be
in Lock Haven, which is rapidly becoming
a fire brick mauufacturing centre.
