The court in Northumberland
county has decided that the law
does not prohibit buying whisky on
Sunday. It is the wicked landlord
who pells it that violates the law.
Oik Democratic friends who
found nothing in their ftockines on

Flick to meacure their countenances.
It is said that several Congressmen

The Commercial persists in wrest
ling with the "Rules and Regula

can primary elections in this ceunty.
Did the stupid old thing never hear
of the '"revised edition ?"
Hov. Charles R. Bucvalew, has
declined iJie appointment of Su
preme Court Reporter, tendered him
by Governor IV.tiBon. He was
chielly moved thereto by the reason
thai the pay was too small for the
amount of work required.
The terms of over a hundred
Presidential postmasters expired in
December, and at least twice that
many will expire during the present
month. Whi'.t a lot of Democratic
moutliri mirt be watering, in antici
pation of the feast of fat things in
store for rimie of them !
The lotg strike of the coal miners
on the Monongahela river has been
terminated by tue miners agreeing
to resume work at the old wages
This strike was supported by mast
ed mobs, and this unlawful proced
ure, if nothing else, was sufficient to
stamp it with failure.
It is an interesting fact that the
first commission signed by President
Cleveland after his Cabinet com
tuitions was that of General Grant
as General of the Army on the retir
ed list ; and the first act of Congress
signed by him was the bill Giving
Mrs. Grant au annuity of f 5,000.
The world do move ! A colored
roan has been appointed to a clerk
ship in Washington under this Dem
ocratic administration. It was a
mistake, though. It was'nt known
he was black until be presented him

p;;sed the civil service examination,
and the Commissioners bad not re
ported his color.
Is its anxiety to have a primary
election called this month, the Com
mercial proffers to furnish the blanks
"free of expense." People with or
dinary memories will remember
that before the last primary election
this same paper announced that it
was publishing the cards of the can
didates '"free of expense," yet all the
same, it collected $150,00 from the
chairman for the publication. That
old dodire won't put monev in the
('ommercinl'f purse the second
lime.
Tue Pitteburg Ditjwtch comes to
the fore with a statement that the
Standard Oil Company, the H. C.
Frick &. Co. C.ke Company, and the
Peuusylvauia Railroad Company
have formed a combination to util
ize the gas from the ovens of the
coke couulry, and pipe it to Phila
delphia for illuminating purposes,
while also supplying the city with
natural gs for fuel. Tnis is a stu
pendous scheme, or a stupendous
story, which, we are Dot prepared to
eay. The only real difficulties in
the way are purely mechanical, and
in view of the difficult feats that are
daily performed in this line, we are
not prepared to deny that the ex
ploit can be achieved, but whether
so gigantic a monopoly can be made
huccessful the future can alone de
termine. In 1862, when George W. Pile was
Chairman of the Republican Coun
ty (Xrniriiitee, .nd laboring for the
success of General Beaver and the
ticket, the Commercial was the
mouth-piece of one Hibner, who
claimed to be Chairman of the
"Itdqiendent Republican Commit
tee." It opposed Beaver for Gov
ernor, supported Stewart, and repu
diated Pile; and yet within two
months after the election, with the
cheek of a brass monkey, it coolly
undertook to instruct Chairman
Pile in regard to his duties in calling
the January business .meeting. So
thU year the Commercial opposed
i'ue Ifrpublican county ticket, sup
-potVd the Democratic candidates
avnd repudiated Chairman Scott and '
now again within two months after
its labors in behalf of the Democra
cy, it blancliy assumes charge of the
Republican organization, undertakes
to dictate to it, and demands that it.
shall ignore the rules, and be con-1
trolled by its advice. Thia sublime
assurance is evidently founded on
the belief that the Republicans of
the county have not sense enough
to distinguish between loyalty and
treason, and can be gulled into fol
lowing the lead of a jonrnal that has
twice shamelessly betrayed them
and is constantly laboring to divide
and overthrow their organization.
SorfE one ought to provide the
Commercial with a copy of the
Rules and Regulations governing
Republican Primary Elections in
this caunty, and alBO with con
science enough, if possible, to truth
fully publish the action of the party ,
under these rules. It is now wilfully
and knowingly misstating the facts
in relation to the election of the
Chairman and county committee.!
Here are the facts : At the January
court, in 18S2, a business meeting of
the party was held, and George W .
Pile was elected chairman for the
ensuing year. At the primary elec
tion held on June 23d of that year,
amend men ta to the rules were adopt
ed bv a vote of 563 to 251. Among
these rules is one providing that
thereafter the county committee
should elect its own chairman, there
by abolishing the annual business
meeting heretofore held for the elec
tion of that official. In 1SS4 there
was no annual business meeting
held, but as under the new rules
adopted by the State Convention in
1SS2, it became necessary to select
delegates to the convention by vote,
Chairman Pile summoned the Coun
ty Committee together on the 2Cth
of February, 1SS4, for the purpose of
calling a special primary election in
April to elect delegates to the State
Convention. The year for which
Mr. Pile was elected having expired,
be declined further service, and the
committee, under the new rules
adopted at the previous primary,
elected John R. Scott chairman to
serve until the usual primary elec
tion held in June of that year. At
this election, held on the 2Sth day of
June, 1SS4, a new committee was
chosen, and they elected John Ii.
Scott chairman for the ensuing
year.
The last Republican county com
mittee elected in this county, was at
the primary election held on the
2Sth of June, 18S4. This committee
chose John R. Scott as its chairman
and the time of their service expired
on the 30th day of June, 1SS5. Rule
9, pre vides that no person shall serve
as judge for two succeeding years, and
therelore the members of the last
committee are absolutely ineligible
to serve the present year. The party
is therefore absolutely without a
committee, and without a chairman,
unless, as we once before suggested,
the chairman holds over until his
successor is duly elected, there being
nothing in the rules forbidding it
It is to be regretted that when the
committee in June la-it, decided that
there was no necessity for holding a
primary, there being no competitors
for the offices, it overlooked the fact
that committeemen were to be elect
ed, but there is no eenso in crying
over spilled milk, the fact cannot be
altered, and we have no committee
men.
The scare that the Commercial is
laboring to get up is only one of its
usual attempts to divide, distract
and disorganize the party, and its
assertion that the committee elected
in 1SS4, is still in life, with power to
call a meeting and elect a chairman,
we have shown above, is absolutely
untrue, and if we had a committej
and a chairman there is nothing for
them to do until the time for holding
the next primary arrives. But how
are we to hold our next primary and
complete our party organization
may be asked ? Nothing is simpler.
Rule 19, provides "that the Repub
lican party of Somerset County hold
its primary election for the nomiua'
tion of candidates on'i fourth Sal
urday of June of each year." There
is no mistaking this. Rule 9, pro
vides that:
The voters in election precincts in addi
tion to voting for candidates for nomination
shall also vole lor and elect a judge of elec
tion lor each of tueir respective districts,
wlio shall be the committeeman for said
precinct for the eusuincvear Provided, that
no person shall serve as judge for two sue
ceeuinx years.
And by Rule 10, it is provided
that:
In case of a vacancv or in the absence of
thecommittveman at the hour of S o'clock a.
m., on the day of the primary election, the
inspector pnwent who had the highest vole
at the previous primary election shall act as
committeeman. In case of the absence of
the inspectors, the clerk present having the
niftiest vote at tue previous primary elec
tion shall act as committeeman,
in the absence of all the ottioersof the pre
Vious primary election at the time fixed for
opening the polls, the voters present shall
elect a judge of election, who shall then
proceed as directed by rule s.
Thus it wilt be plainly seen that
on the fourth Saturday of next June
the Republican voters will assemble
at the usual places of election, at the
time fixed for oneninir the do! b.
opening
there being no oi-.e authorized to
bold the election, the voters present
will elect a judge of election who will
proceed to open the polls, receive the
votes, ic
The voters will at the same time
elect a committeeman to serve for
the ensuing year. These committee
men will assemble at Somerset on
the Tuesday following the election
and there elect their chairman, and
the organization is completed under
the rules, and the machinery is in
order to take charge of, and run the
canvass.
We have given above the present
status of the party and shown how,
under the rules, the perpetuity of
the organization can be continued.
We have done this in the interest of
the party alone, and in defence of its
regularly adopted rules. We have
no greater interest in the matter
than has any other member of the
party. Our advice is to stand by the
rules. Bnt if the Republicans of the
county prefer to follow after false
crmJa ta he lured away from the
right, to follow the ignut fatuous of
the Commercial that has repeatedly
attempted to lead them into the
quagmire of discord and distraction,
we as well as they, must abide the
result Any disregard of the rules,
will in time, return to plague us, and
will eventually end in their being
totally ignored and the certain over
throw of all party organization.
Success rnl Safe Crackers.
Hoi odaysbcrg. Dec 30. At an
earlv hour this morning tha store of
the Wolf Hardware Company at una
place was burglarized. The thieves
gained an entrance to the store by
fnrrini? the front doors with an iron
crowbar. They blew open the safe
witb giant powder, entirely sbatter
in2 the heavy door of a Thomas
ISarnea safe, and took from it about
:$00 worth of notes, about $2o in
cash and a silver watch. They also
carried off the entire stock of re
volvers in the store, but did not dis
turb anything else of the stock.
They left behind them an auger,
brace and bit, two cold chisels, a
wrench and a crowbar, all of wbicn
they had stolen from a blacksmith
shop several blocks away trom the
scene of their crime. Before the
burglars began operations they took
the precaution to extinguish the
street lamp standing on the oppos
ite corner from the store, and
although there was a private watch
man on that beat, the robbery was
not discovered until about 6 o'clock
this morning. The deed was evi
dently done, by professionals, and
when they disappeared they left no
clue behind them which would lead
to their apprehension.
Drad Chinamen Tell no Talca.
Seattle, W. T., Dec. 30. The
details of a horrible story which
gained circulation here to-day are to
the following effect : "One day last
summer at Italian boatman, accom-
accompanied by seven Chinamen,
left ictoria for the American side
of the Straits ot Fuca. When almost
across the strait the Italian observed
the United States cutter Oliver Wol-
cott coming towards him, the evi
dent intention of the othcers ol the
vessel being to examine the contents
of his craft. He became alarmed
and to avoid the penalties attaching
to the offense of smuggling Chinese
into the United States, resolved to
make away with the evidence of his
guilt. He called the Chinamen out
of the cabin one by one, and as each
man came on deck the Italian struck
him on the head with a c'.ub and
then pitched the body overboard. In
this way be cot rid of the whole
number and when officers from the
cutter boarded his boat no evidence
whatever of a criminating nature
was found." The story is told by a
recently-convicted smuggler, who
is now a prisoner in the tnited Sta
tes Penitentiary.
Stack Fast in the Chimney.
Wilmington, N. C, Dec. 29.
Last night Leander Smith planned
to rob the store of Robert Pugh &
Co., about nine miles from here.
He climbed to the roof, took "off all
his clothes, and then tried to slip
down the chimney.
In doing so he loosened a brick
which fell down into Mr. Push's
chamber underneath. Mrs.. Puch,
alarmed, got up, and as the night
was cold placed a match to the fire
place which was filled with light
wood ready for kindling. Smith had
in the mean time gotten half way
down the chimney, and there he
stuck fast. He was unable to get
out The harder he struggled the
tighter he.was wedged in.
Smoke trom the lire beneath be-
gau to ascend, which made his con
dition unbearable. Thoroughly al
armed he yelled loudly for help.
His cries brought the whole town
out A windlass was procured, and
by daybreak, after enduring much
suffering he was pulled out and lan

A Ijebanon County Knoch Artlen.
Lebanon, Dec. 30. Three vears
ago Samuel Shuler, of Newsmans-
town, this county, mysteriously d is-
apjieared. No trace of him could be
found. His wife and several chil
dren mourned him as dead. Sever
al days ago there was a knock at the
door and when it was opened Shuler
walked in, alive and well. He said
that he had been West, speculated
and made money by hard work.
When be left,his family were in des
titute circumstances. Since then
they were supported by David Web
er, a young man ot the town, and
there also had been additions to the
family.
When Shuler found this his wife
had formed an attachment lor Web-
ner he showed his sorrow in bitter
tears. To-day he signed a paper re
leasing her from all further matri
monial alliance with himself. He
then kissed his children, bid his wife
good by and committed them to the
care ot Weber, who promised to do
bis best to make them nappy.
Didn't Kind her Alone.
Millersbl'bg, O., January 1.
About 8 o'clock last evening a mask
ed man went to the residence of
John Finley, a wealthy farmer liv
ing three miles east of here, and
knocked for admittance. Mr. Fin-
ley's daughter opened the door and
was confronted by the fellow, who,
wita drawn revolver, commanded
silence; but, with great presence of
mind, sbe cahed for assistance, and
Mr. Finley and his grown son both
i came to the rescue. The would be
libber, seeing his game was up, turn

Mr. Finley ras paid a large
amount of money yesterday, and he
was known to keep considerable
money about the house. He and
his son had been in the habit of
absenting themselves from home on
Thursday evening, and these facts
were undoubtedly known to the
thief. Miss Finley describes him as
a powerful built fellow, with a strong

Starving Tbemaelvea.
Milwaukee, Dec 31. Several
persona are starving in Palmyra in
frenzy of religious excitement Three
weeks ago a revival began, and the
ministers and several others pledged
themselves not to taste a morsel of
food until certain things were ac
compliahed. Thomas Green, who is
alleged to have fasted fifteen days,
began taking nourishment to-day.
There is no change in this fiondl
tion of the Rev. Mr. Pate, who jg
conducting tfca revival meetings,and
is also fasting. Six other members
of the congregation are also listing.
Meetings are held at a. 10 p. un
and 3 p. n. The authorities will
not interfere. All insist that they
began fasting that they might be
come sanctified and have power to
save sinners.
A 1 Ting of an Asylum for te la
Burned at Newark, V J.
N ewark, Jan. 2. As keeper
Mic bael Corbitt was passing through
the basement of the Count Insane
Asy lam, on South Orange avenue,at
a quarter past three o'clock
thia afternoon, he noticed a
tocgue of Same shoot out from
about midway of the eastern front
wing. He gave the alarm, and the
flame shot up the chute to the attic,
which was soon a seething mass of
flames. Dr. Hinckly, the Medical
Superintendent summoned his staff
of assistants, and in a few minutes
the 203 patients who occupied that
wing were mustered into the yard
without accident Of the patients
taken out 32 were women and 71
men. Very little difficulty was ex
perienced in controlling them, they
apparently having more control
over themselves than had those in
charge of them. Private Watchman
McLaughlin, who was asleep in the
attic when the fire broke out, barely
escaped with his life.
The flames spread rapidly to the
third floor and along the entire
length of the wing in both directions
a distance of 600 feet At the west
end it was stopped by a blank wall
22 inches thick, which prevented its
spread to the centre and other wings
of the institution. By hard work
the firemen kept the flames to the
two floors, although the lower
floors were badly damaged by water.
The total loss will probably amount
to $75,000, which is fully covered
by insurance.
Later in the evening the 103 in
mates were all returned to the asy
lum, temporary wards having been
arranged in the dining-rooms. The
cause of the fire is unknown. The
asylum is a new building, located
about two miles from the centre of
the city, and was erected at a cost of
about $350,000 to the country. It
was first occupied last spring and
had COO inmates.
Explosion in a Coffin.
Greenville, Dec. 31. In 1875
James A. Watson, whose family
then lived in Yorkville, lost a child,
aged 4, by death. At that time Wat
son was in Baltimore teaching in a
commercial college, and he could
not conveniently leave his business
to attend the funeral. Temporary
burial was given the body. Yester
day Mr. Watson went into the cem
etery to remove the body. The coffin
was raised from the grave. As the
undertaker was lifting the lid from
it a loud explosion occurred, shat
tering the glass panel into number
less fragments. Several pieces struck
Mr. Watson in the lace, cutting mm
severely. Une piece strucK tne
bridge of his nose, cutting entirely
through it The explosion was
equal to that of a dynamite cart
ridge, and was noticed by persons
more than a quarter of a mile dis
tant The face of the child was in
an excellent state of preservation, as
were also its burial clothes, and a
wreath of flowers on its breast seem
ed to be nearly as fresh as when bu
ried over twelve and a half years
ago.
Burned to a Crisp.
Mount Holly, Dec. 30. At Bun
ker Hill, a small negro settlement
near here, a colored girl eighteen
years ot age was burned to death
last night She and her mother had
been to this place to witness a min
strel entertainment After returning
home they kindled a rousing wood
fire in the stove and, lying down on
the floor, went to sleep. About two
o'clock this morning the elrl awoke
to find herself on fire, a spark from
the stove having ignited her cloth
ing. Her cries for help aroused an
aged colored man who was asleep
on an old straw bed on a settee. In
his fright the old man picked up the
mattress and flung it on the girl,
hoping to smother the flame ; but
the straw protruding from holes in
the covering quickly caught on fire,
and immediately the girl was en
veloped in a blaze which burned her
to a crisp.
Routed by Regular.
Rome, Texas, Dec 31. Major
Kellogg with a detachment of U. S.
troopers from Fort Ringgold yester
day routed a large band of Mexican
revolutionists from the state of Tarn
aulipas who were occupying an
island in the Rio Grande river near
this place which belongs to the U. S.
The revolutionists crossed over to
the Mexican bank of the river and
under cover of darkness took posses
sion of the lamous neutral island
which has caused so much conten
tion between the United States and
Mexico. The revolutionists have
been preparing for several davs to
pronounce against the Stata of Ta
raaulipas. Large quantities of arms
and ammunition bave been smug
gled across the river by them at

Fire Deatroyea Church Luxuries'.
NewJYohk, Jan. 2 A fire broke
out in Sl Luke's Protestant Episco
pal Church this evening, and, before
it was got under control, caused a
damage of at least $20,000. The
organ, valued at $6,000, was destroy
ed, and the new marble memorial
chancel was ruined. A number of
stained glass windows were also de
stroyed. A number of stained glass
windows were also destroyed. The

Additional JLoeal.
Enrrox H skald: Among tbe many pat
rons of your paper, there may be some desir
ous of seeing an Item from Vestern Nebras
ka. CozaJ is a thriving littid town, is lo
cated 217 miles west of Omaha, ia tbe wili
est part of the great Platte valley, a station
of the Vnion Pacific Railway, and on the
famous HOt'a meridian, and has a popula
tion of 35a A fine scope of t-u.:try, well
settled for 25 miles north 18 mill- Muth and
10 miles east and west, supports tbe towD,
while there is a constant demand for all
kinds of produce from the mountains West.
Tbe town made a good growth last year,
manv fine residences and business houses
were put np, and is aOod and lively busi
ness place. The people are moral and in
dustrious, and as a matter of fact are pros
pering by the great inducement tbat the sur-
ronudings afford. We bave bad very little
snow yet this season. Cattle are still grax-
ing on the prairie. Farmers are plowing
yet. The weather is warm and pleasant for
this time of the year. Tbis is no wood, but
a level prairie country. Timber is scarce
and can only be found along banks of riv
ers and streams, but considerable timber is
planted every year by the farmers. The va
rieties mostly are box-elder, ash, maple.
walnut and cotton -wood, which all grow
well in this soil. There is a vase area of
farming land free from stone and composed
of dark, rich sandy loam, covered with a
heavy sod, the same being used extensively
in the erection of bams and sheds, and by
some for dwellings. It does make a com
fortable bouse, warm in winter and cool
in summer. Among these may be found
some very nice and handsome structures.
The more primitive structures were built re
gardless of taste, some living in holes or ex
cavations along banks, (or what we call
dugouts), and are covered with poles, twigs,
and sod. The era of sod buildings is almost
over. Society is improving. Frame struc
tures are being erected and immense corn
cribs and granaries are being built, in which
to store grain. But many of the farmers
are compelled to throw their corn on piles
similar to stone piles on some of the eastern
farms. At present corn ia worth 20 cents
per pushel, while coal rates about the same.
The former is extensively used as fuel by
many of the farmers. The land is not
adapted to corn growing only ; but small
grain and vegetables, such as potatoes, mel
ons, etc., are successfully grown here. The
average yield of wheat is 2a, oats W, corn
15, and barley 33 bushels to the acre. Prices
of land vary according to quality and loca
tion. Raw prairie is selling from ten to
twelve dollars, within eight or ten miles
from town, Two years ago this same land
rated at from three to four dollars an acre.
Improved farms are worth from twenty to
twenty-five dollars an acre. Homesteads
and timber claims are all taken. Five years
ago this country was thinly settled, but now
it is dotted all over, or nearly ; on every 100
acres there is a house or some improvement.
From my doorstep I can count 14 wind
mills. Farming land is not enclosed by
fence, for the herd law is in force here ; that
is for every one to care for his own stock
and not allow it to trespass. The health of
the country is good ; the best I ever was in.
and is a poor place for doctors to live.
This country is mostly settled up by people
from Illinois, Iowa, and Pennsylvania.
Seven miles north of Cuzad there is a colony
from Pennsylvania. Somerset County is
well represented in this colony, by four
good substantial farmers, formerly from
Somerset and Lavansville, viz : Kev. Wm.
S, Larnion, John S. Larmon, E. A. Sliaulis,
and Wm. II. Barron, all of whom own
large and well improved farms, and are all
good and solid republicans. Mr. D. A. Bar
ron, S. A. Chonienning and K. J. ShaulK of
Waterloo. Iowa, formerly of Lavansville.
Pa., will locate here in the spring. Each
owns 1U0 acres of land. I wish some more
young men from Somerset county would
take Horace Greeley's advice : '"Go west,
young man."
Christmas is over, but all the same the
Pennsylvania colony had a Christmas tree
with 3s5 presents on it, valued at from one
cent to one hundred dollars each. How is
that for a new country and in the country?

Cozad, Dawson Co. Neb.. Doc. 2. 1SK5
Mb. Editor : In the closing hours of t he
year 18?5, I call to n nieiiibrance many
things ; some of a pleasant character, others
not so pleasant. One event of painful re
membrance is ihe death of Sister Catharine
Mountain. Pbe died in Confluence on the
13th day of September last, at the resilience
of Dr. Mountain, hr nephew. Sister Moun
tain was 85 years of age at the time of her
death ; had been a member of the Christian
Church for 50 years, having obeyed the gos
pel nnder the preaching of Bro. Forward, of
Somerset During her entire christian life,
her character was one of unsullied purity.
Her chief delight consisted in reading the
Bible and of attending to the duties which
it enjoins. Her seat was never vacant in
the house of the Lord except when deprived
from so doing by sickness. Having read
tbe Bible through nineteen times and Dor
tions of it daily, she was familiar with its
teaching and took great delight in convers
ing w th others in reference to its glorious
promises. Sister Mountain greatly desired
t live close to a house wherein she could
worship, with her brethren and sisters, the
Lord Jesus Christ. Some 7 years ago a
house was built in Petereburgb, near her
home. This was a source of great comfort
to her. This was the first house erected in
this County south of Centreville, She bad
the pleasure of seeing another house built
in Confluence by the Disciples of Christ,
and on the dav of ber death another house
was dedicated by her brethren near Co f tin
Rocks, in Addison Township. Sister Moun
tain loved the cause of Christ, and nothing
pleased her more than its prosperity. She
lived to see it prosper in many pUces around
her, and while we lament her loss, yet the
remembrance of her many virtues will still
eucourage our hearts to press onward, know
ing that soon we will meet her in that land
where no parting will be known.

Terrified School Children.
Kimmuxdy, Jan. 1. A. F. Lacy,
school director in Meachetu town
ship, went to a corn field adjoining
tbe school house with a shot gun,
and when the scholars came out of
school at recess L'icy deliberately
fired at them, but owing to the fence
none of the children were hurt. He
then loaded his gun and went to the
school. The teacher inquired of
bim what he meant by shooting at
her scholars. Lacy said, "By God,
I meant to kill 6ome of them." The
scholars were badly frightened. He
remained some time but did no
barm. The cause is attributed to a
very bad feeling on the part of Lacy
toward his neighbors and their chil
dren, be thinking they were annoy
ing him unnecessarily. There has
been a feud in that neighborhood for
the last twelve months. The citizens
are very much excited, but have not
decided what course to pursue.
