All contractors on the South Pennsylva nia Railroad were ordered to quit work last Thursday. The Messrs. Collins were tbe last to quit work in this county. They kept a force of hands at the big cut, near John C. Schrock's, up till Saturday night. John C. Barron, the present Republican candidate tor Poor HoPse Iircetoi, was a candidate for the SAim oflice at the June Primary in 1884 and ruceived 1391 votes, being the second highest man on the ticket and only falling HI rotes short of a nomina tion. ...

They also broke the money drawer, under the ticket windows, open, but aa it was empty they were not very well re-paid Cor their trouble. . At the Republican primary election of ISM John C. Barron received 425 Totesln Somerset borough and township out of a poll of 703 votes, although his successful competitor, Mr. Josiah Ankenv, was a resi dent of the same township. Rather a good endorsement at the hands of tbe friends and neighbors of the man whose hired enemies arc now maligning and abusing him as a "copperhead and traitor." The following item has been going the rounds of the newspapers during the past few weeks : The powerful combination formed by the farmers of Bedford, riiinlingdon, Somerset and Fayette counties to contest with the Pennsylvania railroad company and W. H. Vanderbilt in the South Pennsylvania rail road matter has resulted in a movement to construct another line to compete with the Pennsylvania company. Prominent iron masters, coal operators, bankers and merch ants living in the counties have signified their willingness to extend the necessary financial aid to make the undertaking suc cess. The Baltimore and Ohio railroad, it is said, have signified a willingness to assist the scheme, and preliminary meetings have been held. Severa' wseks ago a Washington corres pondent forwarded an interesting statement from Major Howson, of tbe I n i ted States Marine corps, to tbe effect that the medical examination of Candidates for apprentice ship to the navy shows that between SO and 90 per cent, were physically disqualified on account of heart disease and similar ail ments brought on by smoking cigarettes. This announcement has aroused the greatest interest in medical circles all over tbe coun try. Numerous inqniries have been recel-' ed by tbe officers requesting further particu lars. Medical Director Gibson has tacen up the matter and will thoroughly investigate it. To this end he is now making a very thorough examination of the cases at the navy yard. So far the investigation bas even more than sustained Msj. Howsoiis fiaieuicnu. i'u r nusj urcre war ij;iiv boys at the navy yard as candidates for the ' position of apprentice boys.

I propose to make no comment on the findings of these two Grand Juries. Both sets of men were under oath and, hence all must allow that they acted conscientiously, and yet the two findingsare as diametrically opposite as virtue and vice. The finding of the Slay Term threw the Semi-Weekly Phi lanthropist into spasnis from which he has not yet recovered. The finding of the lat Grand Jury is a step backward. This find ing recommends what 1 think I am safe in calling utter impossibilities. No modern science can ever make the Somerset Jail anything but what it is a miserable pen for wretched inmates. When the report of this Grand Jury was read Judge Baer was moved bv his utlcr shame and disgust to exclaim : Yea. repair but let your repairs be from the ground up." Judge Baer is an enlight ened eentlenian. He knows what a jiil should be, and I have no doubt beexperien- ces a thrill of nervous horror whenever his duty compels him to consign a fellow being to the dump, reeking atmosphere of that in ternal "black hole" which the people of Somerset county dignify by the name of jail. The oldest member of the liar, too, a gentleman whose experiences in life have not tended to smooth the asperities of a disposition naturally perhaps, not of tbe mildest, exclaimed in his grim way " l es. repair it and after you're done, set a match to it and get rid of it ; it never was fit to be used as a jail." I venture the assertion tbat none of the Brnck, none of tbe Bar, none of the County officials was not thoroughly dis gusted at this finding of the last Grand Jury. But the words of the verdict bave gone forth, and so far as I am concerned I caii say, "So be it" Now. however loth I may be to' do so, and every one who has read my articles will bear me witness that I am lotti to t:i!K aoout tne snorteoinini oi others, I must turn to a sad, sad picture. Mr. Smith, the old girl of the Commercial Semi- HVrl fy- Ten-Per-Cent-fnr- Ootlectimi- Lrm has always arrogated to himself great praise for his actions in unearthing what he has alwavt dubbed "The Poor Honse Frauds." According to his last issne should I say 'her last issuer' Mr. Kditor. Well, I'll stick to "his" for there is an old rule in Kirk ham's Grammar, "When the sex is unknown or dotibtfal, use the masculine pronoun" According to his last issue.'he "has been weaving the web of evidence around those men for years." Good God ! what a human .pilfer she is i; Think of it! Here sits Lou, 'within his darksome den and spins, and spins the web that shall presently be loaded with the carcasses of the human flies, wnom be can entice "up his winding stair' Here be sits mumbling bis thumb, aud muttering like Macbeth's witches : "Double, doable, toll and trouble Do thou clialdron bell and babble t For a charm of powerful trouble, Like a Hi ll-hrutn, boll and bubble." Finally, the spider has got her victims in her toils. The tpider of prey is always femi nine, and she rushes into Court, but the bu man spider in this instance is as mncb dis gusted to see the net work of evidence that was venn a-spinning dissolve like the base less fabric of a vision, as is his reptile proto type when she catches a bnmble-bee instead of a fly. ' - . Think what a monster has been nurtured in tin's Coanty. Here fct a roan, who by his own acknowledgment has seen his felloT citizens pursuing a wrongful course for yean and yet. instead of going to them and nttering words of connsel and advice, he gloats over their wrong-doing, and prose cntes them for his own aggrandizement. The human spider! IaA not Mr. Smith try to wriggle himself from the cross to which I bave nailed him. He's there to siay, and bis efforts will only lacerate the punctures that my nails have in flicted. I want to give the readers of these articles a iiule bit of "mighty interesting reading. While Mr Smith was posing in the role of philanthropist he sent out these bits, of En glish, and any one who peruses them will have no difficulty in seeing why I styled ilim ''Ten-rrr-Qvt-fur-CvlIectioit-Siiiith " These circulars were sent by the hundred to the agents ot the Meyersdale Commercial, w.th the following letter of instructions, al lowing, as will be s;en, ten percent, for col lection: ' September 11th, 1885.

With fulsome eager neas he clasps Mr. Sam Philaoo ia his arms and shouts, "this is the way I long have sought.' Sammy, beware! Lou will (eav millstone about your neck to drag voir, lo depths dark with disaster and black who defeat - - " . The Republican party rff Somerset county have merely paused to ask, "Can it be true? Has he really left us 7" and when once sat isfied of this fact, the Longmeter Doxology "Praise God. front W bom all blessings flow" will ascend from every throat in the Bepublican ranks. Smith has always been an obstructionist, a fomcnter of dissensions. and he is now beginning bis oil tactic. hoc. has never advoralM man or measure tbat did not fail.

Fer be it from me to gather np the wrecks that strew the shore of the sea of opportunity and bold them up for the winds of adverse comment to whistle through but what is Lou Fmrtb himself but a dwarfish model of gigantic failure? . The Democrats will sigh. Phiison may be able to hire bint to support Barron for Sammy, let tne whisper jtt your ear, Pd rather give aim ten dollars for bis pro nounced and virulent opposition than have his strongest support gratuitously.
