broke bright and clear and the sun came out
in all his spleuder. Manv and anxious were
the glances cast upwards to the skies, but,
not the slightest indication of t'lecuiifident
)y pnnlicted storm, that was to do such ter
rible execution, could lie seen upon its pla
cid and smiling expanse. Towards noon a
small siH-ck was seen in the east which
frraduallv grew larger and larger until it as
sumed dimensions alwut the size of aman s
hand. This portentous cloud was watched
with considerable anxiety and fear as it
drew nearer and nearer, but, when it was
finally discovered that it was only the Gen
eral of the half-breeds with his first Lieuten
ant, Kooscr, returning from a pleasure
drive, the anxiety and fear was at once dis
pelled and the prognosticators were de
nounced as fools, knaves and deceivers of
the people.
It seeins now that our wise men were
slightly mistaken as to the time and place
the thunder was to be heard. The present
indications seem to be that the 2."th of June
is the time and the region round about the
court house the place where the gathering
storm will concentrate and burst forth.

We advise our citizens to give able-bodied
tramps the cold shoulder. There is no ne
cessity for strong healthy men, wandering
over the country, begging their food from
door to door, and caving they can get no
work. Work is plenty, wages reasonable
and those who have no work are profession
al tranis. They thould be refused cold
victuals and made go to work, or do their
sleeping in lock-ups and eat prison fare.

FREDERICK NAUGLE,
seems that in the interest of the half-breeds,
the ni -Ii tant Republican paper at Meycrs
dale, has taken the somowhnt heavy cott-trj-tof
efleeting a change in iho oiiico; Htid,
jildiring fmni its n-ceiit weekly raving', it
looks very much as though it is beginning
to realize that it his on h.vnl an elephant of
more thin ordinary size. At fir. t the a-stuic-manager
of the i 'mnnt-r!ril evidently felt
that the job was a very stniill one, cspiviV:
as the present Collector liad favored tne
noiuinutinn of tiencrnl Grant for the Presi
dency. This was thought to be a card that
cauld easily and successfully ba played
through Mr. Blaine. Hence, the repeated
assurances that a surcharged political cloud
was hioniing up in the east, and would hov
er over I he Collector's office before the close
of April, when thunder would be heard am'
lightning strike to the terror and ruin of the
present incumbent.
But, alas, for the fond hopes and confident
predictions of the man that casts the poiiti
cal horoscope of the Ciunhtercud, all things
in the political skies "remain as tliev were
from the beginning,' with no visible indi
cations of a change, it does seem that elec-
trial currents are amiui as oneertain in po
litical regions as in atmospheric ones. And
now, as the month is rapidly passing away,
indeed, almost gone, and the portentous
cloud, not cveti so large as a hand, is not t
be.seeti coming from the east, the (iiwanv
ci':ii man, judging from his last week's ist-uc,
is becoming desperate. He dearly perceives
something more definite must be done, am
atthe sacrifice o'f evervthing he has done it
in tne shape of a series of grave charges

But, Mr. Editor, il. is not you correspond
cut's purpose to champion the cause of our
present elTicicnt Collector, knowing that he
is abundantly able to cope with all the he
roic titwrah arrayed against hi:n. Reference
is only made to the case to show how th
matter is viewed bv the p"o:i!e oulside
of Somerset county.
As far as. Cambria county is conccrnc-1 we
fail to see cither the political necessity or
the moral justice of removing one 3omcrset
county man mere'y to make a place for
another. Politically we condemn the mai
adventure liecauseof the antecedents of both
the 01 and the out one ; knowing the former
to be a trustworthy, consistent Republican
in "weal and in woe," and the latter to 1
billy smirched with that political good-fo:
nothingness, known as sorehcadism. Mor-
ally, we lack sympathy with the loir tun
ning evinced by the manipulators of the
j movement.

A Carp. Ed. Herald : I wish throu,
your iapcr to say to the Republicans of
Somerset county that, owing to the fact that
my health has recently become such as to
render it impossible for me to enter the
field in time to make a full canvass of the
countv before the coming primary election
I will not be o candidate this spring.
With sincere thanks to the many friends
who have given me assurances of their sup
port, and with the Uojie that the "sovereign
will of the majority" as expressed on the
25th of June next may meet with the hearty
endorsement of the whole party at the com

Wm. C. Milicr, of Quomahoning town
ship, was found laat Tuesday morning sus
pended by a rope from o agar tree in one
of the fields of his farm. When found life
was entirely extinct. An inquest was held
on the body the same day, and reported
"that not having the fear of God before his
eyes, but being seduced and moved by the
instigation of the devil, at Quemahoning
township, aforesaid, at a certain field at the
township aforesaid, standing and being the
said Win. C. Miller, being then and there
alone, with a certain hempen cord, Wing of
the value of twenty cents, which he then
and there had anil held in his bands, and
one end thereof put alout his neck and the
other end thereof tied aliout the bough of a
siuar trie, himself thca and there with the
cord aforesaid voluntarily and feloniously
with his malice aforethought hanged and

assigned by his friends for this strange suicide.

The origin of the word Yankee is now
difiicult to trace. The old sxlling was
Yanke. Some have said that it was coined
in Europe and u?ed to designate all persons
in the American colonies. Others hare ar
gued that it eould be traced to the Indians
in their attempts to pronounce EnglUh, and
called them Yangbees. The learned Dr.
Thatcher declare it was first nsed by one
Johnathan Hastings, a fannerof Cambriilge,
Mass., as a cant word to express excellence ;
as o Yankee good lionse. or Yankee good ci
der ; just as the people of Louisiana, when
recommending any article for sale at New
Orleans, declare it is real Creole butter, or
Creole eggs. At any Tate, the word Yankee
has become a famous word, and while our
Southern brethren point indiscriminately to
all Northerners as Yankees, nevertheless the
genuine Yankee will continue to be found
"down East," where lie was first discovered.
When be is found in any other quarter of
the countrT lie may be recognized, but lie is
awav from home.

One or two passing thoughts may be nam
ed in reference to the redoubtable Utneml,
who seems to command the small squad of
malcontents in Somerset county. To us it
is passing strange that be should single one
ofiicc-aolder out as being objectionable on
account of length or time of public service.
You certainly made a good point on him in
a reference lo the fact that eneof his broth

Further, there is a most derided convic
tion in the niimls of all persons who have
watched the scarred and heroic General of
many such conflicts, in County, District and
state Conventions, that no man has a more
vaulting ambition to get and hold an office
than he. His aspirations for a scat i;i the
iate Senate are still remembered ; his insa-
lionors was
not slaked by two terms, hence his strenu
ous efforts to secure the nomination when
Oenr.il Campbell was selected over his head;
and it is now generally believed he is groan
ing after judicial honors. The truth is, he
is a veritable jKiIitical Micawbcr always
waiting for some political preferment to
turn up, but in the meant inic hoping to
make something "turn up" by an artful tuse
of li s sch'n.ing q-iujities.

lim.vE, Pa., April 50, ISM.
Ed. IIf.bvid : With your forbearance I
hasten to answer a communication purport
ing to have leen written at Berlin. Int by
the way was written at Somerset.
The writer under the tutmdtjJvme of
Truth enarges me with having written
the "Beast-Butler ' communication which
appeared in your columns April 9. I will
say right hero and now that he lies and the
truth is not in 1iim. The truth of my state
ment could be huljstantialedif Mr. Scull and
"Beast-Butler" would agree to show the
manuscript. I have no knowledge of the
editor's rules, but I do not think that he
makes a public cxhition of all matters sent
fir publication. Besides I do not think that
time is of so little .value to him that he
could spend it in showing inannscripts to
every num-skull who might want to see,
them in order to get np a newspaper con
troveisr.md detract from the character of the
author. However, this is a matter in which
I have no ri-lit to dictate. (I allude to
showing the at tide or not showing it.)
Now, if "r.uih'' wanted to comment on
'Beiwt-ButlorV' article, he should have had
some knowledge who the "Biast," us he is
pleased to term him, was, and not make a
per.-ouul attack on an innocent man. I call
it personal, from the fact that I was the on
ly man who was prosecuted for selling li-

Ed. IIehald : The p.iliticil discussion.!
which have Ix-en going 011 in the county
for the past few months have established
one thing beyond the possibility of a doubt.
Every OiJ'inlh-Ilfjr.iblieini in the county has
turned up 011 the side of the bolters and
kickers. Every so called Republican, who
a few years ago aided in defeating General
Campbell for Congress, and Colonel Yutzv
for Senator, is a blatant bolter, kicker and
In'irpf ,,:, )t follower of Boss Koontz.
It matters litile in what form the opprd
troiili!iiiifestcd itself, whether 1-ccoming
out ami out itreennacKers like J. ir. Ugle, or
by skulking in the heat of the campaign
like the Bos ; the whole crew now stand
united in opposition to the fundamental ar

it was for self-iuterest. It was a plan, plot
or scheme to get me to viuIaU: the law, and
then tarn around and return me, thinking
thereby to be released from paying a pretty
heavy judgment. The whisky was not got
ten for them at all. It was gotten for a par
ty of screnaders. - When he found he
could not rset me to release him on this ruse,
he run it through Court, and thus it amount
ed to what it did. But it will be seen that
I had the honesty to get up and acknowl
edge my guilt like a rdan, and am honest
enough to reiterate it njain, more than
'Truth" might do if he were in the same
predicament. .
"Truth," were those proceedings not
published in our county papers? Why must
you herald end difluse it through the coun
try once more? Is it because you try to
make people believe that yon are so law
abiding or because yoa want to let people
know that you can write newspaper articles
and slander a young man? I think your
malice got the better of your judgment. It
appears it is a predominant and nncontroll
ablc passion of yours. You are aiming at
the destruction of an innocent man's char
acter, and making him the object of defama
tion, calumny and reproach, just to appease
your savage malignity. We might say
something that would not fall so pleasantly
on your ear", but will not unless further
provoked.
As to being fu Jilled, we are a sober, indus
trious people, and mean to earn our bread
by the sweat of our brow, ond not by living
on the spoils of the county. In my cstima-1
