his "vpt" enemies, and loosed a
devastativc avalanche upon them.
That's his reush, amiable, ielcnt
way. He is Mayer of Johnstown for
his second term. Ten years ape he
resurrected the Blue Laws of 17t4,
and enforced them with an emphasis
that was mere than disconcerting te
even law-abiding citizens. And in
creased his enemies.
Net "se long age an attempt was
made upon his life. A bullet went
smashing through the window cf his
eccond-stery real estate office en
Franklin street. It mis'cd him, but
only by a hair.
Gun Roosevelt Gave Him
Ready for Assassins
"New, I am fortified." he says
jrrimly, and fishes out of his desk a
tremendous Celt. "Teddy Roosevelt
gave me that."
Today he is under a .-ix months'
jail sentence. "If they don't cet me
one way, my enemies try another."
And he can mil about it. but hi1
very eyebrows bntle with righteus
indignation.
And this warrie- among hu Prr.i
Bjhania mountains has a son -''ie
"doesn't like politics at all": thrce
daughters who leek upon it a- a
merry kind of came, and a gentle,
unobtrusive little wife who feels
that the best help she can give lier
ardent husband is "three square
meals a day."
