With many boy and girls the public
school affords all the school education they

The price of potatoes is rapidly declining
in the city markets, and it is to be hoped
that an elimination of the ficticious specula

and the tows of supply and demand, is a
sufficietly heavy burden upon the wages of
the working classes, without the addition of
forced values caused by speculation.

Henry Marti, of Somerset county, killed
a wild turkey on the Allegheny .Mountain,
on Thursday last, that weighed thirty-seven
pounds. Its beard was seventeen inches
long. It had a spot of whito feathers on its
hack as large as a man's hand. This turkey
has been known to the hunters in that
neighborhood for several year, and all
the previous efforts to secure him failed on
account of his cunning and shyness. Mr.
Marts resorted to strategy to get him. He
saw the turkey go to roost and went there
at midnight and remained until daylight
and shoot him as he left his roost. This
turkey wsa killed by a Somerset county
man in Somerset county, just over the Bed'
ford county line, near Faia Hope, but he
was undoubtedly a Bedford county turkey,
who took up lodging in Somerset county.

Thb Staiwats. When the word
wart" to written with a little "s" it is seen
to be a very good word. No one speaks of
it slightingly or contemptuously, or in any
condemnatory manner. Apply it in any
way, and it to a term which exalts and ele
vates and attracts. Take it in a physical
sense, and the stalwart man is one who is
well-proportioned, square-built, muscular,
and replete with manly vigor. If we ap
ply it mentally we have a vigorous intellect
uality, a wide-reaching grasp and power of
thought, a strong and decisive will, a cool,
clear, energetic power of reason, and deci
sive mental grip that marks the leader of
opinions and of men. If we apply the term
morally, its meaning is no less ennobling.
The moral stalwart is a moral hero. He
has clear views of right and wrong. He
pursues the right in spite of obstacles or
temptations, and be strikes at wrong with
the energy of the lightning flash. He can
labor and fight, and suffer and die, but he
cannot wink at wrone. and be cannot iraf-
fcr his conscience to be directed from) th
true line of rectitude, even in the estimation
of a hair. His moral fiber is fiae-grained
and clear. He stands always before a tribu
nal erected in bis own conscience, and meas
ure hi own conduct by what his clear vis
ion sees as th everlasting right. The reli
gious stalwart to a Luther, a Fenelon, a
Wesley, or a Moody. The patriot stalwart
to David in Judea, or Chatham in England,
or Washington, Putman, and Warren in
America.
To all this everybody will assent. The
term "Stalwart" to a good word, an excel
lent word, a most praiseworthy word if it
to spelled with a little "s." But beware of
it when it begins with a capital 8. Then it
suddenly becomes a term to be avoided, a
word of reproach, a political raw head and
bloody bones, a bugaboo to frighten chiu
dren and timid Conservatives. That to, St
to all this hideous aggregation in the wob
bling and unstable minds of certain polit
ical writers who were never stalwart in any
thing, neither in mental construction nor
political ideas, neither in moral ethics no
geomin rnanhood, neither ia tbenrourage of
opinion nor feal(y to party.
With singular obtuseness and strange ig
norance of the fore of words, these half-
and-halfers, with no drop of stalwart blood
in their veins, are found trying to crush an
Impregnable sectioa nC a great party by
calling them ''8twart,n spelled with a
capital E. Th gnat dramatist was right,.

Considerable interest was taken in the se
lection of a clerk to the commissioners
by the large crowd of people who were in
town Saturday. There was a very general
desire that for various reasons the present
incumbent should not be retained. He and
his friends left no stone unturned to secure
his retention. The announcement that a
new man bad been appointed gave almost
universal satisfaction.

The newly elected county commissioners,
Messrs. Shaffer. Horner and Bruhaker, took
the oath of office before Register and Re
corder Frease Saturday afternoon, and a
short time after had a meeting at the Glade
Hoase, at which they selected D. J. Horner
as their clerk and John R. Scott, Esq., ss
their attorney. The commissioners are to
be congratulated on their appointments.
They are both good ones and will meet with
the hearty approval of a large majority of
the people of the county.

The Christmas celebration held in the Di
ciples' church Saturday evening was one of
the most pleasant entertainments of the
kind we have ever had the pleasure of at
tending. At the close of the very enjoyable
and interesting exercises a large Christmas
box was opened from which was taken a
present for each member of the school. The
worthy Superintendent, Mr. L. C. Colborn
deserves great credit for his untiring efforts
in affording the little ones a long evening of
unalloyed happiness.
Messrs. Jacob J. Zimmerman and Jerome
Stuflt announce in another column that
Uiey will offer a car load of shorthorn cat
tle, fresh from the celebrated blue grass re
gion of Kentucky, for sale on January 4th,
at the farm of the first named gentleman in
Queruahoning township. A number of very
line Kentucky cat tie have been sold recently
in this county,but we are assured by a gentle
man who has t xn them all that this is cer
tainly the finest lot ever brought to the
county. A free dinner will be given to al1
persons attending the sale.
A company has been formed to search for
oil in Somerset county. The company has
leased a tract of land eight miles long and
four miles wide, and will proceed to sink
five wells on the property. J. M. Mehaffey,
a Bradford cor tractor, has the contract for
drilling two the wells. The tract Is lo
cated about eight miles from the town of
Confluence, on the border of Somerset and
Fayette counties, and near the Yonghio
gheny river. The company thinks the oil
indications are excellent. A man named
Barnes, formerly a Bradford operator, is in
terested in the scheme.
The usual number of drunken brawls in
cident to the holiday season, occured on
our streets' Saturday. Several most dis
graceful fights took place in front of the
"Glade House" during the afternoon and
evening. Our policeman exerted all his
powers to quiet the disturbances and disperse
the crowds, but the force at his command
was totally inadequate to the occasion. We
believe in a little license being granted st
this time of the year, but such scenes as
were enacted on our streets on Saturday
were a disgrace to the community in which
we live. For a little time it was absolutely
not safe for ladies and children to go on tc
the streets.
The Teachers' institute was called to or
der promptly at 2 p. ni. Monday. The ses

II. C Musselman; Assistant Secretary, G.
M.Baker; Queryman, H. C. Holbert; Ex

Charley and Harry Weimer, two sons of
Treasurer-elect John Weimer, were out
hunting Mondav afternoon when they met
with an accident that resulted very serious
ly to both. Charley saw a bird in a clump
of bushes and quickly taking aim fired both
barrels of his gun, which were heavily
loaded with shot. The young man's hor
ror can better be imagined than described
when, on running to secure his bird, he
found his brother lying on the ground com
pletely riddled with shot. The bushes had
so concealed him from his brother's rlew
that when he fired he thought him in some
other part of the wood. The wounded young
man was brought to town in a buggy by a
gentleman passing near by, Charley running
along side Wben they reached home Dr.
Brubaker was quickly sent for, and upon
reaching the bouse found Charley so over
ostne from fright and fatigue that for a while
h was the mortserion patient of the two.
"Cad's" left arm and tb side of his head
were found to ba full of shot, but none of
them had penetrated the flesh sufficiently
to cause any serious fears for his life. Both
are hearty, robust young men, and it is

Mr. James E. Burnett, of Connclltville, to
spending the holidays In Somerset.
"The Best XcwsrAFca bveb Pcblihueo
ik Pxx!rri.VABM." This is one of the manv
complimentary things said about the Pbila-
aeipnia i-rem, by its contemporaries. It Is
indeed an enterprising and thorout-hlv read-
able newspaper, whose page ar never soil
ed by the unclean things which make so
many journals of the day dangerous visitors
in the family circle. If you are not a reader
of The Prem already, send for a specimen
copy.
Ir Yoo Abi Sick, Read The Kidney
Wort advertisement in another column, and
it will explain to you th rational method
of getting well. Kidney-Wort will save
you more doctor's bills than any other med

on the kidneys and liver, it cure th worst
disease caused by their derangement. Us

The inclemency of the weather to inter
fering with the success of the Confluence
Literary Society. ,
An engine and boiler has been shipped up
White's creek for the purpose of boreing
for oil on the property of George Wass. A
man by the name of Barnes is in charge of
the work and lie contemplates builing a
railroad from that point to Salisbury. He
claims to have discovered an easy crossing
over the mountain.
The oil and railroad fever has net yet daz
ed many of the inhabitant of this county.
Yet it is generally bclieyed that Yanderbilt
will build a road through this section of the
country. There is quite an excitement be
tween here and Ohio Pyle caused by the en
gineers and some of the employees of th B.
Si O. Railroad trying to obstruct Yanderbilt-
engineers from locating a new road.
Some are of the opinion that the new road
will be built up Laurelhill creek ; others
that it will be built up the Casselnisn, and
one man says it will take a direct line from
here to Salisbury, crossing in the locality of
John Peck's. X.
W est Ban h, Iowa, Dec. 23.
Ed. Herald Dear Sir .I thought per
haps a brief article from this place and con
cerning my trip homeward from Somerset
county might interest some of your readers,
many ef whom I am happy to say are my
friends. I left Somerset at eleven o'clock
Tuesday the 20th, Inst, took the Baltimore
& Ohio K. R., to Chicago, arrrived in Chica
go at 9 o'clock, Wednesday evening, the
21st, and at 9:20 took the train on the Chi
cago North Western R. R., for Cedar Rapids,
Iowa, arriving there Thursday morning at
6:30. The train being late on the Burling
ton Ceda Rapids R. R., I had to wait until
2 p. m. I spent my time looking over the
City while waiting for the train in that
place. At 2 p. m., I took the train for
West Branch and arrived here at 4:15. I
found father, mother, brother and sister, all
well and ready to gladly welcome me horn,
and it was a welcome that I can highly ap
preciate, yet my stay with them must nec
essarily be short, as next week I expect to
go to Wall lake of this State, ' which I in
tend to make my future home. It pains me
to leave them so soon, for when I leave
them I know that I am going where I shall
not hear the advice of a kind father, or re
alize the influence of a christian mother and
the affections of a loving sister and two
kind brothers. 1 feel that I can now say,
"There is no pluce like home, be it ever so
homely." I am enjoying myself very welL
We are now having very pleasant weather,
although it has been raining for the last
few days, which has caused the roads to be
very muddy, but it has cleared off and this
is a beautiful day. It rained all the time
while I was on my way home after I left J
Cumberland which made it more unpleasant
than otherwise. Glad as I was to get home
I was sorry to leave old Somerset County so
soon, and to my friends there I would say,
I appreciate your hospitality .sociability and
kindness, and feel myself under obligations
to thank you for what you did for me to
make me enjoy myself during my visit
with you, and I shall always look back on
my visit with you as one of the most pleas
ant periods of my life. And now hoping to
sometime meet you all again, my best wishes
shall go with you all, as ever yours,
W. 8. Bell.

recognised power throughout the country.
Its influence ever since has been constantly
growing. As it haa fonght against slavery
and for cheap postage, so it will fight against
Mormon ism, for Civil-Service Reform, and
for pnntv in politics, and general upright
ness in all things. It employs the best edi
torial talent and speaks fearlessly on all sub
jects. It pay for contributed articles and
for eaiionai servce more wan uouoie tne
amount paid by any other weekly newspay i
per.
It publishes more religions discassiona
than tb religion reviewa, more poetry ana)
stories than th popular monthlies, and
gives more information than an annual cy
clopedia. The long cable dispatches recent
ly published from the great Methodist Conn
cil in London are a good illustration of what
Thb Ihditikdest is constantly doit- A
list of the most prominent religionsand phil
osophical writers, poets and story writers in
tbe country is the list of the contributors of
The IxDkrrjrDaTrr. Besides the space set
