The Republican soap-convention that
had been the exciting topic for politica
discussion among Cambria county Repub
licans for the past month, came off in this
place on Monday. It brought together
the largest ;rowd consisting of delegates,
liquor men, wire pullers and spectators
ever seen in the court house, and at one
o'clock the sea's and aisles of the court
room were crowded to its utmost capacity.
As the the conventon had been called to
take place during the time liquor licenses
are in suspense, every liquor man that
could attend was present, anxious to show
that he was woi king. In order to further
Impress them with the seriousness of their
position, the court cryer and tipstave were
borrowed for the occasion, and at one
o'clock Court Crier Humphries and Tip
stave Connell with their staves In their
hands appeared In the bar. Court Crier
Humphreys called thecouvention to order,
while Tipstave Connell busied himself
marching around through the aisles with
his stave as is customary during the sessions
of court.
Chairman Taylor then appeared and
announced Messrs. Anderson Walters and
Ed. Levergood as temporary secretaries
and that he was ready to receive nomina
tions for chairman.
County Commissioner Oeorge M. Wertz,
of Stonycreek township, and John Hor
rocks, of Johnstown, were placed in nomi
nation, and the first ballot landed Mr.
Wertz as chairman by a vote of 1V2 for
Wertz to 40 for Horrocks.
Mr. Wertz then took charge and after a
motion had been made aud carried to elect
the temporary secretaries permanent, the
convention got down to business.
As there were contesting delegation from
Loretto and Spangler boroughs, the differ
ences were healed by a motion made and
carried, admitting both sets of delegates.
Arthur Griflith, of Johnstow n tien took
the floor and read a resolution calling on
the chairman to appoint a committee of
five to draft a set of rules and regulations
for the government of the Republican par
ty in Cambria county. District Attorney
Murphy took the floor and in a short
speech presented the name of Alyin Evans,
Esq., of Ebensburg. as the choice of Cam
bria county for congress, aud a motion to
allow Mr. Evans to choose his own con
ferees went through with a rush. Mr.
Evans, who was in waiting to respond to
M r. Murphy, wasenthusiastically received
The same program was followed in the
choice of J. C. Stineman for senator, the
only difference being in the length of the
speeches, Mr. Stineman. it is said, having
had a speech prepared, but in the hurry in
making the train that morning bad inad
vertantly left ii at home. He, too, was
given the power to select his own confer
ess. For assembly V. IV Reese, of Johns
town; Samuel Patterson, of Barr town
ship; A. N. Hart, of Johnstown, and Ed
ward II ughes. of Johnstown, were placed
n nomination. The first ballot disposed
of the assemblymen, and resulted as fol
lows: Reese, 140; .Patterson, 14.1; Hart,
4; Hughes. 5.
For county treasurer the following
names were placed before the convention:
Jacob Yeckley, of (lallitzin; Isaac Jones,
of Johnstown; Josiah T. Evans, of Johns
town; J. W. Hamer, of Johnstow n; James
M. Shumaker, of Johnstown, aud E. F.
Spencer, of Hastings. Dr. T. M. Rich
ards, a delegate from the West ward of
Ebensburg, before balloting commenced
arose and stated that "for the sake of har
mony he would withdraw the name of L.
A. Craver, of Ebensburg." As Mr. Cra
ver s name had not been mentioned, the
harmony produced was apparent. After
the Mb ballot James M. Shumaker with
drew and oi the Ulh ballot Josiah T. Evans
withdrew. On the loth ballot E. F. Spen
cer, oi Hastings, was nominated, llie
ballots were as follows:

Daniel Ressler, the blacksheep. of a
prominent family, killed his cousin, a girl
of IS, near Cramer, in Indiana county, near
the Cambria line, on Thursday of last week
and instantly linished the job by shooting
himself in the head. Kesler lived for two
minutes. The murder and suicide were
committed in the presence of the girl's
mother.
Ressler and the girl belonged to a fam
ily that is very well connected. For sev
eral years the man, who was 'M years old.
had been drinking, and his habits became
such that his family practically cast him
off. For the last year he peisecuted his
cousin Klla with his attentions, aud de-
suite or.e or two refusals still wanted her
to marry him. Her mother had forbidden
him the house, and he sought frequehtly
without avail, to meet the girl clandestine
ly.
Alxiut two o'clock on Thursday afternoon
Klla Kessier and her mother, intending to
go to Johnstown, started to walk from
their home above Cramer to Conemaugh
furnace, w here they expected lo catch the
train. As they passed through Cramer
Ressler caught sight of them on the street
and joined them, Mrs. Ressler not caring
to make a scene on the street by ordering
him away. After they got out of town the
mother walked on ahead. They bad gone
about half a mile below Cramer w hen Mrs
Resslers attention was attracted by hear
ing her daughter in an indignant tone of
voice say: "It's no use, Dan. I won't
marry you."
Mrs. Ressler turned around at that
moment, saw the man put a revolver to
the girl's head and fire. As her daughter
fell, Mrs. Ressler, with a cry of horror.
hurriHi back, but before s-he had reached
the group Ressler had turned the revolver
against himself, tired a bullet into his
breast and fell upon the body of his
cousin. As airs, uessier came up ne
glared up at her, said; ''Well, I fixed your
daughter, anyhow," and died.
Several men who were coming uo the
road heard the report. They found the
two dead bodies, with the mother of the
girl standing by, wringing her hands. One
of the men ran on to Cramer aud brought
wagons, in which the bodies were taken
back to the town.

There is no doubt that everyone has had
at some time a desire to visit Florida, the
"Land of Flowers," and that many have
been deterred from so doing by tbe though
of a long and tiresome railroad journey
great expense and a thousand and one oth
er objections. These have been overcome
by the inauguration of the Pennsylvania
Railroad Company's personally conducted
tours to Jacksonville. A special train of
uxexcelled equipment makes the run from
New York to Jacksonville in thirty hours;
a tourist agent and chaperon accompany
each tour to look after the comfort of pas
sengers while en route; and the low rates
offered bring the tours, within the means of
almost every one.
The tours, allowing two weeks stay in
Florida, will leave New York and Phila
delphia on February 25 and March 3. IStW.
The rate. Including transportation, meals
en route, and Pullman berth on special
train, is 50.00 from New York and $43.00
from Philadelphia; proportionate rates
from other points.
For further Information apply to ticket
agents, or address Tourist Agent, lr.W
Broadway, New York, or Room 411, Urnad
Street Station. Philadelphia, to whom ap
plication for space should also be made.

The candidates slated tor commissioner
were landed on the first ballot. When this
office was reached W. J. Jones, of Portage;
T. R. Davis, of Conemaugh; A. Hostetler,
of Richland; Oliver Evans, of Ebensburg;
Philip Hertzog, of Corroll township; Ben
jamin Jones, of Cambria township, and
John (Sittings, of Jackson township, were
placed in nomination. The first ballot te-
sulted as follows: W. .1. Jones. .; Davis.
4f; Hostetler, !; Evans. 9; Hertzog. 34;
Benjamin Jones, S7; (Sittings, 7. Hostet
ler and Benjamin Jones were declared the
nominees.
For county auditor, James W. Daily, of
Allegheny township, and A. L. Milten-
berger, of Johnstown, were placed In nom
ination, when a motion was made that the
nominations close. Chairman Wertz
started to put the motion when, alas for
poor Daily, the proceedings were inter
rupled and Mr. Wertz thrown off the trol
ley by Delegate Barker, of the East ward
of EbensDtirg, long enough to allow John
unningham. of Yintondale, to make a
motion that the nominations for auditor
be opened again. The motion carried and
the names of John (Sittings, of Jackson
township, and Philip Hertzog, of Carroll
township, were placed in nomination. The
ballot resulted as follows: Daily, 04; Mil
tenberger, 121; tiittings, 85; Hertzog, 4.
Millonberger and Gittings were declared
the nominees. Daily was thus gotten rid
of and as hn would have been like a fish
out of water on the ticket nominated, there
will be no explanations necessary after the
election to ponder over as to the why and
w herefora of his running behind the ticket.
as was the case three years ago.
For poor director, James Somerville had
no opposition aud was declared the nomi
nee.
For delegates to the state convention
Peter Moran. of Allegheny township; M
C. Westoyer, of Spangler; Dr. George
Glass, of Portage; A. J. Thompson, of
Cresson township; F. N. Burk, of Gal
litzin, and T. F. Hamilton, of Westtnont,
were named. The first ballot made Messrs
Westoyer, Thompson aud Hamilton tbe
delegates.
Campbell Robinson, of Johnstown, John
E. Keiper, of East Conemaugh. and Dr. T,
M. Richards, of Ebensburg. were elected
conferees to select delegates to the nation
al convention.
And thus ended Rajah Barker's conven
tion. Although there were mutterings
deep and loud against its work everything
moved along according to the plans and
specifications. Iu the boosting of Spencer,
the choking of Shoemaker and the cuffing
of Daily not a cog si i oped and the Rajah
Lad his way. From henceforth there will
be no question as to who has control of the
party. From Editor Swank down, the
kickers will have the alternative of suing
for peace or sitting outside of the breast
v orks. The election of the ticket nomi
nated on Monday will but fasten the
Rajah's hold more securely and will give
biut that many additional henchman who
will owe their positions to him alone and
who must lend him their assistance next
year iu landing the candidates he may
select for positions at the public crib.
Barker Order Vrml for Oate.
The Republican ticket nominated yes
terday is clean from top to bottom, and
the one that will be nominated by the
Democrats cannot compare with it. But
it is more than eight months yet to the
election, and should we commence hollar
ing now we vould gel very hoarse before
we could vote. It is probably as well to
( take a rest; we have had a surfeit of poli-
I tics recently. Johnstown Tribune.
