Constable Geo. B. McCliutic, of
Jolinsonburg, sent Chief Frank Mundy,
some time ago, a warrant for the ar
rest of Endis Cline, charged with as
suit and robbery, committed at Jolin
sonburg on May 11th. Cline turned
up in Emporium Tuesday afternoon
when he was locked up. Officer Mc-
Clintic came to Emporium this morn
ing and took the man to Elk county to
answer the charge. Officer McClintic
tellsns the story: On May 11th Cline
and a "pal" met a Glen Hazel livery
man named J. W. Blanden antl enticed
him to the B. R. &P. R. It. track near
Sage's machine shop, where they as
suited and robbed the man of his watch
and some money, leaving him laying
on the track unconscious, possibly
thinking a train would run over him.
Regaining consciousness he crawled
to the machine shop, arousing the
watchman by his cries, who took him
to a doctor. He was frightfully bruis
eel. What Cline needs is about twelve
or fifteen years "down the river." He
is a bad customer.

and the district burned over is equal i
to 35 acres. The causualities are two 1

As a result of a spectacular lire at this I
place this morning the Long Beach j
hotel, two cottages, a church, the rail- |
road station, casino and grandstand

Thousands of dollars were lost by the
bleepiug guests, many of whom fled in
their night clothes. Several historical

Haywood Acquitted.
Puis, IDAHO, July 29. —The acquittal
of Wm. D. Haywood, following his j
remarkable trial, has held the attention
of the entire country. Notwithstand
ing the fact that the prosecuting at
torneys int-ist that Moyer and Petti
bone be brought to .trial, unles3 the
opinion of the vast majority of the peo
ple is incorrect, these men will never
bo prosecuted on the same charge as
was Haywood.
The Haywood trial has cost the state
of Idaho $210,000 and the taxpayers are
incensed that such a sum should have
buen authorized since the trial proved
such a fiasco.
Haywoood spent this morning at the
bed-side of his fecbleel mother. He
will at once resume his duties as secre
tary of the Western Federation of
Miners.

LEHIGH TO OPEN
STATE CAMPAIGN
Birthplace of Republican Nominee for State
Treasurer John O. Sheatz Will Fire First
Guns for the Fall Fight in Pennsylvania.
ALI.ICNTOWN, PA., July 27.—Much
to the regret of the Republicans of Le
high county, United States Senator
Philander C. Knox has found it impos
sible to accept the invitation to attend !
the county meeting at Emails, on '
Saturday, August 31, but it is certain
that a big crowd will be there just the >
same to greet Representative John O. I
Sheatz, the Republican nominee for
State Treasurer, whose campaign will
be formerly opened upon that occas
sion.
Representative Sheatz is a son of Le- 1
high having been born at Mechanics- :
ville, four miles from this city, and no
Pennsylvania Germui who ever run
for a " :ite office has been morn popu- i
lar in his native county than he. Many j
old time Democrats, who were aseo- i
ciates of his father, and who knew j
Representative Sheatz as a boy work- j
itig in his father's blacksmith shop, !
will vote for him and it is predicted

EDWIN S. STUART.
The foregoing is a true and correct
that ho will carry Lehigh county.
Democratic leaders will admit that
Representative Sheata is a political
stone wall that it is impossible to pene
trate, and the local party managers of
the Democrats arc fearful that Sheatz's
popularity will endanger the election
of their county ticket, which has very
email chance considering the help that
the Sheatz tidal wave will give the
nominees for the Republican ticket.
The Democratic candidates for Dis
trict Attorney, Sheriff, Recorded of
Deeds and Director of the Poor are all
members of the Democratic county
crowd that was downed in every fall
election for the; past four or five years
and thera Beems to be a determination
among the voters to break up the
Democratic machine and to keep it in
retirement.
The members of the Republican
county ticket have already begun an
active canvass of the county and all
are confident of success.

Great Van Amburg Shows.
Xo tented amusement enterprise on
earth has met with such continuous
praise and applause as has the Great
Van Ambnrg Shows. An ovation
greets this clean and beautiful organi
zation at every point in its annual
tour.
From the colel waters of Hudson Bay
to the Rio Grande and Pacific eliores
the name of VanAmburg is a house
hold word and the coming of the Great
Shews that bear his name is greeted
always with a hearty welcome.
From the gensis of the show until
its present colossal perfection thore
has not been a solitary season in
which it has not led its fellows in the
multipicity and general excellence of
its attractions and now it towers above
and dwarts all other tented exhibitions
in comparative insignificance, and this
season it presents such an opulence
of sterling and meritorious attractions
as to entitle it to be designated as a
vast Amusement Golconda whose won
drous wealth of entertainment is un
limited and unmeasurable. Tho Van
Amburg Show has always been the
best and biggest, always in the van,
always prolific in leading and sensa
tional features and always fully equip
ped with the finest stable of horses
and tho most skillful and finished bare
back riders, gymnasts and acrobats in
the profession. The show has a large,
well-ordered and well selected menag
erie, containing living, vigorous speci
mens of all that is strange, rare and
curious within the range of natural
history, and this Royal Roman Ilippo
elrome is a realistic reproduction of
that of the days of the Imperial Cae
sar.
It may be said, however, that to
these always prominent and desirable
attractions has been added, for the
current season, many features so stu
pendous in maguitude, so overpower
ink in unprecedented grandeur and im
pressiveness, and so enormous in the
expense necessary to this production,
that the features mentioned, grand and
wonderful as they are, can at best play
but a secondary part.
Don't forget the date, at Emporium,
Saturday, Aug. 10th.

Bellcfonte Gazette.
The following is clipped from a paper
giving a report of a meeting of the
Democratic State Committee, helel at
Harrisburg, July 17, 1907:
"At the suggestion of S. W. Brennan, ol
Allegheny, the chairman will fix a day in
August when in every town in the state a
meeting will bo held a' wliieh there will
be addresses by speakers 011 the text
"Thou shalt not steal" witl/ reference 11>
the new Capitol disclosures,"
This if. a new departure for the mod
ern saints of democracy. It would in
dicate that they had just become ac
quainted with tli? Eighth Command
ment. When the democrats start out
as evatfgelists, to condemn every one
but themselves, and assert their own
purity and political self righteousness,
they should not forget that other com
mandment: " Neither s halt thou bear
false witness against thy neighbor and
also that there is another hibical in
junction, proclaimed by Him who
spoke as one having authority when
on earth, which is, "■Judge not that ye
be. not judged."
Have our democratic friends, who as
a party have not changed their ways,
forgotten when Ilowetl Cobb, Secre
tary of the Treasury, and John Buch
anan Floyd, Secretary of War under
the administration of James Buchanan,
how they plotted treason against the
government and depleted the treasury
of the United States of $850,000,
robbed the arsenals of their arms and
munitions of war, shipped them into
the South, and scattered the army and
what little navy we bad to the lour
corners of the earth and tiien joined in
the open rebellion against the govern
ment and tried to destroy it?
Have these modern saints forgotten
the palmy days of the Canal Commis
sion in this State, when everything
was controlled by the democratic party,
snd the real estate of the farmer and
mechanic taxed for state purposes, and
the political atmosphere was rank with
the alleged graft in the state adminis
tration and that of the public works?
Have they forgotten the remarkable
exposure of Tammany Hal), New York,
under the regime of Boss Tweed, a
democratic oi'ganization that controll
ed the city and state, and was also
shown to be an organization that fat
tened and grew rich upon graft, pub
lic plunder and organized theft?
Have our democratic saints ever been
known to shout in the case of Cobb and
Floyd and that of Tammany Hall,
"Thou shalt not steal?" Oh, no! We
presume at that time they were igno
rant of the Eighth Commandment. On
the contrary, they have always justifi
aud defended the actions of Cobb and
Floyd and Tammany Hall, and have
never apologized for such notorious act
ions perpetrated by democratic lead
ers and democratic organizations.
Surely, when the democratic evange
lists bombard every town in the state
in the midsc of dog days, they should
not overlook the latter injunction,
"Judge not, that ye be judged," and
the commandment, "Bear not false
witness against thy neighbor."
The republican party and those in
authority are neither defending nor
apologizing for the Hustons and Sand
ersons, or any one else who apparent
ly conspired to defraud the state A
Republican Legislature appointed a
commission to investigate the frauds
and made ample appropriation to en
ablo the committee to ferrit the wrong
and guilty parti .8. A Republican
Governor is pledge d to leave "no guilty
man escape," and he keeps his pledges.
No prominent or influential republi
can, who is efficient and active in the
organization or who aids in shaping its
policies, has thus far been tainted with
graft. The Hustons and Sandersons
were not active republicans, but a few
years ago were proclaiming their self
political righteousness and doing what
they could to aid the "Thou shalt not
Steal" democrats into power.
Our candidate for state treasurer,
Hon. John O. Sheatz, is a most capable,
honest and upright man. He has been
j tried in public life and has been in the
i limelight, aud has stood the test with
honor and integrity. No republican
I should allow himself to be duped or de
ceived into voting the democratic
| ticket by the democratic slogan:
| "Thou shalt not steal," and thus on the
I eve of a presidential election do that
j which would be a reflection upon
I President Roosevelt's administration,
i and would be hearlded as the repudia
i tion of the candidacy of Senator Knox
j as Pennsylvania's choice for the presi
j dency.

Port Allegany Reporter.
"The CAMERON COUNTY PRESS dis
courses eratically and condemnatory
of the wretch who killed his wife at
Emporium while under the influence
of Cameron county liquor, but it ie
closed up like unto a clam relative to
the inhuman cut's who sold the wretch
that which ho knew would turn him
into a brute, a situation that waa well
known to every one there, as the fel
low had developed murderous instincts
for thirteen years when drinking.
They tell me that he was quite a de-.
cent fellow in former years and that
even during the past year, though his
intellect and disposition were blunted
by intermittent dissipation, when not
drinking developed some good quali
ties. * "Whiskey made a pretty
heavy record in Emporium last week.
Big fire early Sunday morning. Two
men burned to death on that date.
One woman shot ( ■■ c? ath on Thurs
day; one man suicided, or attempted
IU; two children orphaned, two homes
broken up and a dozen others desolat
ed; the county up against .athree thous
and dollar expense in a murder case
, and innumerable misdemeanors that
are a common occurrence there. Sev
enteen license places to a population of
two thousand. The wonder is that
there aren't more murders and more
expon&e. ''The Independent, a
a newspaper at Emporium says of the
license situation there in connection
i with the O'Dell murder: "The temp
tation to sell is so great that unscrupu
lous men constantly violate the law."
That is the result of license lunacy as
jit exists in Emporium. Rent is high
and license is high in that town, and
without the citizenry drunk to excess,
there isn't profit enough to keep the
hell-holes that exist thcrb in operation.
; A starving liquor license man is always
an unscrupulous man. Dare the news
of Emporium insist that the license
granted therein bo cut down to four
and that the sale be curtailed? This
j paper thinks net For thirty pears this
paper has been against an excess of
liquor license in Port Allegany and
against violation of the liquor lawn
Until there is an excess of licenses the
law not likely to be violated. Will the
people of Emporium, after the terrible
experiences of last week, arise in their
might and control the liquor business
there or will they allow it to continue
until more desperate tragedies are en
acted ?"
This is rather tough on Emporium,
although the major part of Brother
Layman's criticism is just. The PRESS
has for years openly and constantly
advocated the reduction of licenses in
this county. At the last licence court,
held in December 1906, Judges Green,
McDonald and Laßar refused the ap
plication of sixor eeven licenses and
after Judge Hall took his seat efforts
were made to set aside the former re
fusals, but the Court would not listen.
The murder trial will no doubt bring
out many facts of interest to the public.
Both the PRESS and Independent have
repeatedly called attention to the rank
violation of the license law. Things
should be a little different yet. We all
hope.
