m-eipl is to drop a Uiblcsioo!iful of s.wder

thus placed in the wjier is that it preserves

Some time ari. in a store-box eonversation
w ith Ir. Lichty, of Ih-tmit, w ho 1ms been
siitiiiiierinp in Somerset, the ilictor ex'press
ni hlsreul suq.nse that the ieople of Som
erset county uuwle no annual exhibition of
their products. Although a irosierous inu
titk.iier in the city by tlie lake, thcdtictor
has traveltsl extensively through tlie west
and northwest, and nowhere, at least no
where tliat be has ever lieeu, has he seen
anything to compare with the farm products
of Somerset county. " Why, everything
grows larger and better here, and why Som
erset county can't have an annual county
fair1 is beyond my comprehension. The peo
ple, tK, are more prosjierous in every way,
are better educated, dress better, and live
better. I have attended a half dio. ll public
gatheriiiirs and have noted the vast improve
ment that has taken place since I lived
among them, if you don't lieliere it, go
awav for twenty years, and then come liavk.
avc done."
From to-iluy's )-rs we varn that the
minority iaterest in the S..-uth Peunsvlvania
Railroad Comianv intend culling meeting
at an early day to decide what action shall
tie taken in reference to completing the line.
F.x-President (ioweu states that the deternu
Iiatioti of the l'enlisvlvaliia Railroad Com
pany to keep the question tif the right of
that eorjairution to al-sorb the South Pensyl
vaiiiaand lleech Creek lines Is-fore the courts
will not deter the minority interest from
proceeding. He and Dr. Hostetter and others
interested w ith the minority, regard the re
cent decisien of the Supreme Court in the
matter as final ; that the Pennsylvania Rail
niud Com jmny exhausted its argument when
the nse went before ttiat tribunal ; that the
lower Court decided the case ii'sui its merits,
and that Hie yxTeuriaw division given by the
higher tViurt was according to the regular
methods. If the minority interests take hold
of the subject, they can, according to the
statements of gentlemen largely intcresti-d in
the South Pennsylvania, make such progress-)
while the case as a matter of courtesy tu
the Pennsylvania railroad is allowed u re
main in court as to go ahead diligently
with the work by the opening'of next spring.
A number of informal inna-rcnecs have
liccii held hem in reference to,tiie Smtli
Pennsylvania and then: d.s-s not seeui to be
the least (.article of doubt that there will be
another line built to Pittsburgh. The ques
tion has Ih-cii raised that the Vunderhilt in-'
terest 111113- ,u,( agree to the wmpleti.m of the
line, but it is argued that they eauuol com
pcl the suliscribers to put ill any more mon
ey and that the State of Pennsylvania is
broad enough to admit of another Hue being
surveyed to Pittsburgh by capital that is now
willing to enter into it and in w inch there
will lie none so tricky as the Van.lerbilrs,
who il.liver.it.lv sold out the others who
were ass.sial.sl with them in the Siulh
Pennsylvania. Rut the Van.lerhilts are no
more anxious to sink what they have put in
that line than others an:, and they w ill have
no opportunity left them if the Pennsylvania
Railroad Company is denied the right to buy
them out, than to join with others and finish
the Hue, or sell out to the minority upon the
same terms they pnssed selling out to the
'eiinsylvauia Railroad Company.
-Mr. Xed Kicrnan, wiio lett Smierset just
one year ago for a pleasure trip across the
sea, arrived home on Sumlay morning, hav
ing visited as many places of interest in (in-at
Rritain and the continent as was (sissible in
that time. The voyage home on (he gissl
ship America was a most eventful one, 'as
the following story fnun the log of the vessel
shows: '-The America left (lu-enstown 011
i Thursday morning a week ago with fair
weather, but within two hours after leaving
port a storm tame up, which the officers of
the ship described as the most violent that
the vessel ever passed through, (apt. Frace
went to the bridge at the first sign of bad
weather, and remained then-forty-two hours
cxhi-ss1 not only to tiie wind and nun, but
to the waves which during Thursihiy night
washed clear over the bridge, filling the lite
!xats with watt-r and clearing everything
fnun the decks that the f.uve of ten l-t of
water could move. In the midst of the storm
a stoker, who had narmwly escaped being
hurled into the lire by the pitching of the
vessel, deserted his post and rushed tlin
deck with the uvowed intention of jumping
overlsianl rather than risk again the danger
of his work. He was Ibn-ed back to the fur
nace nxim, but his fright soon .level. 'k-.1
into insanity, and he was found crouching
lietwi-en two funiucvs in object terror await

He was placisi in irons. At the same time a
iuic was cn-ated in the steerage by the cry
of " Fire " and several humin-d men and
women rushed to the hatches, eudi-avoring
to git to the bouts. Itt-nse Volumes of what
seemed bi be smoke .thniughout the ship
caused the alarm, and the otli.vrs in charge
had a dtM-rate fight for some time to coh
trol the frightened steerage iiss-iigers. In

merely steam mused by some water having
washed over hot steam pi-ics. Rut again
fright had IcvcIokh1 into a case of insanity,
and one of the steerage passengers, an Kng
lishinan, who had descried his family and
his position 011 an Knglish Milice force, at
tacked the stewards w ith a razor atl.l threat
ened Hi kill any one who tried to

Republican Congressional Confer
ence. The conferees who were in SA-ssimi for a
Dttmlier of weeks at the Somerset House,
brought their coiilcrcnce t a ckweat in.:
o'cl.s-k Salunlay morning, ov iiti.inimou Ay
nominating Ldward Scull, the senior editor
of the Hkkald, as tlie candidaje if the Re
publican irty in the 17th IVingressiotuil dis
trict. Tuh following are the pns-eedings of
the last session, as furnished us by the Secre
tary :
At 10 o clock 'Saturday morning, after s
ballot had been taken with three votes for
each candidate. Gen. Campbell entered the
room of the conference and withdrew his
name, speaking in substance as follows :
Gentlemen of the Conference : The time has
come when, in my judgment, a nomination
should be mode; further delay will endan
ger our ksal tkkets and reduce the majority
that should lie given to the State ticket. Per
sonal wishes and aspirations must give way
so that the public good is subserved. I ad
mire the earnestness and fidelity displayed
by each of you to advance the interests of his
favorite candidate. This is Very cn-diuble
to rou all.
Rut this struggle should not be prolonged ;
lominaiion should be made bwlav. In the
hope that I may assist in the accomplishment
of this purjsise, I now nwpectfully request
that my name sluill be unconditionally with
drawn from the list of candidates before you,
and 1 assure you that whoeveryou may Hum
iliate shall receive my earnest ondj.-nrdial
support.
To my owu conferees I n-turn my sincere
hanks lor their earnest efforts in my liehalf .
Zealous as they have been in their endi-avors
I um gratified to know that not one wonl has
been uttered by them in disparagement of
any other candidate, and tliat their relations
with you all have been must friendly and
cordial.
To the conferees from the other counties of
the district I also return my sincere thanks
for the uniform kindness and courtesy I liave
fw-cived from them during this prolonged
contest.
The conference then passed a voteof thanks
to (ieneral ( ampliell for thus paving the way
tor the n-lcascjif the conferees from their
king and monotonous work, after which an
other ballot was onlered, when Cambria's
conferees cast their thn-e votes for Senator
Loiigcncrker, of Rs-dfonl, each of the other
'counties casting their ballots, lor the candi
dates of their respective counties, giving Mr.
Longenecker six and Mr. Lemon and Mr.
Scull three each. This vote was the same on
the two succeeding ballots, when, the culling
ol the roll being commenced at Rlair, (Ik
conferees for that county east their votes for
Mr. .S-ull, Cumbria cast her votes that way
also, as did also Somerset county, Redford
voting for Mr. Longenecker. thus giving Mr.
Scull nine votes of the twelve, and nominat
ing him.
The nomination, on motion of Judge
Fichtiier, of Rlair, was then made unani
mous, and after a vote of thanks to Mr. Ken
nedy for the able and impartial manner in
which he presided during the long sessioii(
and a vote of thanks to Mr. Mervine
for the faithful manlier in
which he icrformed his duties us Sec
retary, the conference sent a committee to
invite the candidates into the room. After
a short time Messrs Scull, lAingeiiecker and
Campliell appeared, Mr. Union being at his
home, in Rlair county, sick. Mr. Scull, in a
few appropriate remarks, oci-cpted the nomi
nati.ijK'an.l Messrs Lougencckcr and ( utu-
buffgraccfullv endorsed the nomination and
It Iged the nominee their earnest supisirt.
Judge Fichtiier responded in the same vein
011 behalf of Colonel Lemon.
The cotifcn-nce throughout was conducted
in the most harmonious manner, und with
the best of feeling between the diffen-ut con
ferees and candidates, all of whom left for
their resiiective homes sisin after the close of
the pnH-eedings, determined to do the best
for their nominee, and feeling that they had
made fricmlships of earnest, honest men that
would lie continued through all time."

Malicious Abuse of Mr. Alexander. !
Last week's Itetwtcrril ik'voted is.-nsidcruble '
space to thewilful and malkkmsuliUse of W. j
Sutl Ak-xoiider, our candi. late for State Svu-
ate. For all com-erned. we will state that j
Mr. Alexander is well known in this county
as un hoiiomble, upright and intelligent gen- '
tlcmun, and no one i Is-tter acquaiiitcsl
w ith this fact than the editor of the Demo
crat himself, but his false and malcious
statements will avail nothiiu;. as they are j
published with the sole object of mamiiactur
ing material to I inserted in the other Dem
ocratic papers of the district in onler to cre
ate sentiment against Mr. Alexander, so we
warn all panics to believe nothing that may
be published in this Senatoriel district calcu
latisl in any way to injure Mr. Alexander's
chances for election.
Theelit.r of the Democrat soys this dis
trict "would be deeply humiliated" in Mr.
Alexander's election. This same editor has
queer views as tu what constitutes humilia
tion, as only a few years ago in an addn-ss
to the Democratic voters of the county, pre
ceding an election, he urged upon all Iemo
erats to turn and rote the whole Ik-mocratic
ticket and then "the county would not lie
humiliated by bavinga Republican in offi.-e"
in the county, at the same time not a disn--spivtful
wonl could b" said against the Re
publican who was then in ottt.-e. Ma Alex
ander, as an active Republican worker in
our county, has been partly instrumental in
the defeat of several lVm.s.-nilic candidaics,
and one or two of these some lemocrats we
have no doubt are instigating the falsch.ioils
published in the Ilemumii in order to seek
revenge.
The Kepuhli.-ans of this county are united
on Mr. Alexander, for State Senate, and, iti
addition to the full Republican vote, be will
receive the votes of many Demorruts who
know him as a person in all n-sjiei-t well
qualified for the sition. Fuitnn Rrjjulilmin.
